Several weeks ago, a client sent me a PDF file of a finished manual along with several PageMaker files to be translated. I opened the files in PageMaker 6.5,...
Steven I suspect that the answer will be for them to either (a) do the touching up on their own system, or (b) for me to send a Word text instead, and for them...
Hi Steven, Tell your client to hold down shift-control at the same time as selecting Hyphenation from the Type menu. This should solve the problem. Tim W ...
Hi. One thing I've been meaning to ask for ages is: if you buy a larger than average computer screen, can you actually fit any more information on to it, or...
In most of the cases you can put more information on it. But if you want to be sure you have to check the resolution. If you have a 17-inch screen with a...
Interesting that you say the LCD screen is more accurate Andre. Having changed to LCD on every machine we've got, I now realise there are lots of things I...
Giles same feeling I have with the LCD screen on the PowerBook. It is a bit blurred and the colours are not bright as on the CRT. Last year I got a Sony...
... Not me. I never looked back since I invested in a 17" and a 15" LCD monitor. In my experience, there isn't a single disadvantage over CRTs (apart from the...
Most problems occur, when people compare LCD with CRT, is that they don't compare resolution. I also have a Powerbook (G3) with an LCD screen and the quality...
Hi Giles and Ana, You need to check wether the resolution you use is the *native* resolution of your LCD panel. If you use a different resolution than the...
The native resolution of the LCD must be mentioned in the specifications of the screen (check your documentation). Once you know it for sure, check the...
Thanks for the suggestion Francis, Everything is set to 1024x768, which is correct. It's interesting that none of my colleagues have noticed this "blurring" -...
There are supposedly some new LCD or other flat screen displays that are very good, but I have not been to a store in about a year. At that time, none was as...
Tim, Your suggestion worked! Here's what they said: "Actually, the correct key combination is Option+Shift+select Hypenation from the type menu. This performs...
I have a 4-way USB hub that came with a power supply unit. However, it seems to work perfectly well without the power supply, and I'm wondering what the power...

Hi, ... saving batteries when working with e. g. a laptop, and (perhaps) to make up for possible limitations in how much power can/should be supplied through...

Hi, ... I can't know for sure, but it seems like a good idea if they delivered it with one (the manual should say something about it). This is what I imagine...

As most of you I am always struggling with my keyboard. It can never type all the characters I need without additional software or entering funny ALT codes. ...
Maime, For some time in the mid 1990s, I used an American Dvorak keyboard while specifying the Swedish keyboard layout in Windows. That worked after a fashion...
Maime, In my own experience, I need to work with Spanish and English, on Windows systems made for the USA. After evaluation of several alternatives years ago,...
Hi, This question sounds really basic (forgive the pun) even to me, but I've spent hours and hours trying to find an explanation and I now admit it has been a...
Haven't the faintest. But when I find myself in these hairy straits coding with MS problemware, I turn to the MS news server-hosted usenet. It's full of nut...
