If I understand correctly, you are placing a vector graphic into pagemaker and printig from pagemaker without converting to pdf. If that is the case the problem could be that your printer does not print vector graphics. (generally eps or ps file types.) Check your printer specs to make sure...

thanks guys. I will be trying out this code today. both at work and home I've been really busy. But what you have sent seems to be exactly what I was looking for. Klara

I have heard that SSI is the way to set up menues because there is only one file to update. I would like to create a side menu with drop down or sliding menu layout using SSI. However, I don't know how to set up the external menu file or how to call the file. Any and all help would be appreciated.

I have just switched to Linux at home and I am looking for a good program to edit photos. I have gimp which is an excellent program for web grahics but not photo editing. I also purchased a corel for linux but it is not compatible with the newer version of linux. anybody know of a good program...

You asked which program you should use. The one that I would recommend is called HTML kit. it is relativly cheap and it works wonders. I have been using it for some time now and i find that i am never disappointed. It works for frames, html, css, js files just to name a few. To get this program...

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried but they couldn't find an answer for me. The problem I am having is that I have created an online help file. then I have imported an second exisiting file that I created. I use a macro to link to topics in the external help file. If i use a jump to the help...

I am looking for people who use Robohelp with MS word. I have run into a problem when I import help topics using a popup and I am looking for other who use the product and may have a solution.

To convert regular PM documents to word, (without tables) a good way I find is to convert to pdf and if you have acrobat writer 5.0 export it as an rtf file. this holds on to format and it works really well. unfortunately if you have tables in your file the table is lost. the data in the tables...

I use screen shots a lot in my documentation. Although pasting directly into a document works well the problem I find is periodically you have to use the same screen shot in a few different locations in the document. (I don't like to refer users back to a page. It becomes to hard to follow the...

I've had the same type of thing happen if my machine locked up and I had to use alt ctrl delete to get out of excel or word and tried to go back in without rebooting my system.

what message are you getting? I know the one thing I had to remember when I started placing pdf files into pagemaker was to close the pdf file in writer or reader before I placed it into page maker. If I placed a file into pagemaker when it was open all that would show on the screen is a blank...

Thanks Eggles Your are right. I do work on PC and they have to change to a mac.

I don't know if this is the best but whenever I want both to stay together I put both of them into the same text box. The caption will still update and you are guaranteed that the graphic and text stay together even if they have to move to the next page.

In my opinion it is better to convert to cmyk and to check out the colours right off. CMYK and RGB are different and after conversion you will have differences. To try to get as close to the colour you want change them yourself and if you have a high quality colour printer print it to see what...

when I was talking to the printers they mentioned something about stripping the fonts before they converted our document to mac. Does anyone know what they mean and how you strip fonts. Thanks
