    Editing Word Macros with VBA/Script

    Let me reiterate what fumei said regarding the store location of macros. Normal.dot resides locally, and thus is not backed up in most office environments.

    I'm on a big (rush, as usual) project, and I need to know if it is possible to use a command line string to have acrobat reader open a PDF to a specific bookmark?

    Select, Compare, Delete? Need help w/ Macro

    The size of the table will vary--anywhere from 20-200 rows. In addition, it will not be the only thing in the document--it's part of a template, and the table will be in between other document elements. That's why I was thinking of the For loop.

    Missing Fonts in 7.2

    I'm running into the same problem, only the only way I can get the book to update is to have the "offending" file open during the update. Some of this nonsense is really starting to get on my nerves. If I had wanted an unpredictable authoring tool, I would have stuck with Word.

    Phantom Unresolved Cross references?

    Frame 7.2 has been making me a little crazy lately. I keep getting messages about unresolved cross references when I open a file, but when I do a find, I get nothing. Has anyone else run into this?

    Text frame paragraph format (Frame 7.2)

    I thought this would be simple, but . . . All I want to do is place a text frame callout on top of a graphic. The frame is filled with white to make the text legible. I have no problem getting the frame in place, but formatting it properly is eluding me. The top line of text is placed right...

    Got the solution on another forum. If you encounter this problem, use the PDF Optimizer to un-embed the fonts in question.

    Shifting character set when printing a PDF

    I have an old document, created w/ Acrobat 4.0 (PDF version 1.3). The document displays fine, but if I print it, certain characters are occasionally changed. For example, an upper case O prints as a lower-case, superscript "a", and ampersand is printed as "C", etc. Always the same...
