Hi EXP experts, I am using EXP 5.1 with Service pack 3. When in math input mode, the number 4 displays and prints smaller than the other numbers. The font...
John, An interesting observation! For some reason, the Windows TrueType rasterizer is making that digit one pixel shorter. The problem only occurs on the ...
Yes, I'd noticed this on the display, but it has printed correctly on all the printers I have used and I'd therefore dismissed it as a curiosity. C. A....
I'd like to add a few tips on the recently discussed problem of the visibility and functioning of bookmarks and auto-numbering in EXP, which I hope might be of...

... Do you have a convenient way to make these text format changes? I find it entirely too much work to select the text to be changed, then go through the...
Dave, I don't believe there is a shortcut for changing text attributes. Maybe in a future version of EXP it could be introduced as part of the "global"...

Dave and Erik, To quickly apply a series of text attributes to a selected region of text, first define a character style that applies the necessary text...
Dear EXP Users, Friday August 4, 2006 marks the 20th anniversary of the sale of the first copy of EXP 1.0. That sale took place at the International Congress...
Congrats to Simon and EXP for making (for such a long time one should add) the finest technical word processor available to the masses. A propos, one feature...

And thank you for a great product and keeping up the support, Simon. I hope that what you have got out of it is not too far from what you hoped for when you...
EXP Community, I started using EXP (DOS version, of course), in 1986, not realizing what I was getting into. I remember cursing my coauthor, Paul Gertler at...

John, You can do this with Adobe Acrobat 7.0 (at least the Professional version I have). Under the Document menu is an item called "Add Watermark & ...
You can sort of do this now with the trick that Jon Wilkin uses. Go to the header (be sure you set the header to be at the top of the page), select exact...
Dave, To be perfectly honest, EXP has not been as lucrative as I had hoped back in 1986. When I was working on EXP 1.0, I was in my twenties and it was at the ...
Group, I started using EXP in 1990 when it was introduced to me while serving time at the Time Domain Lab at Va Tech (hopefully Bill Davis remembers me from...
Simon, I was one of the ones who began with the DOS version. My mental intertia was such that, at first, I actually did not like the change to the windows...
Hi Simon Thanks very much for EXP -- I've been using it daily since 1988. Did my MSc in Nuclear Reactor Science using EXP 1.1 in the years 1987 - 1990. That...

Yes, congratulations, Simon, and thanks. I started using EXP 2.0 in 1988 (after studying all the technical word-processors that were then available) and have...

I agree with John on this. It would be nice to be able to do presentations a bit more easily. I wouldn't want to convert EXP into PowerPoint. But as it stands,...
All: Yes, EXP is amazingly easy and intuitive and fast -- whenever I NEED to author something in MS Word I do it grudgingly and long for the speedy simplicity...

I opened my email this morning and found a hugh number of comments from EXP users congratulating Simon for EXP. I guess I'll add my two cents. I've written...
Thanks for the tip but not really. I should like to be able to choose a small graphic file and create a graphic background by TILING the picture automatically...

John, The results you desire can be accomplished using Adobe Acrobat in conjunction with EXP, by using MS Word alone, or any of the other bloat-ware word...
