    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.

    I've not made any modifications to the Quick Access Toolbar in PowerPoint, so I don't have a powerpoint.qat file.

    I have a colleague working on a presentation. He is pasting some material from an existing presentation into a conference template prepared by our company. When he does this, the text in all of his text boxes is converted to subscript. The same thin happens if I bring the slide in w/ the...

    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...

    File Browse in a Form? (Access 2003)

    Working on a tracking database for my own use. One of the things I want to do is to be able to enter a path/filename for a given Framemaker file, and to be able to open the file from the form. Here's how I would like it to work: When entering a new record, have a browse button next to the...

    Shifting character set when printing a PDF

    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...

    Acrobat Professional 8: Converting PDF to Word

    I haven't had much luck with this feature so far. Anyone else getting anywhere? In one instance, all I got were the headings--all of the body text and graphics were gone. In another, some of the graphics were gone, all the text was there, but a blank page was inserted between every page of...

    Frame 7.2 -- Paragraph Shading

    In Word, you can change the background shading at the paragraph level, so you could to draw attention to a particular paragraph by adding a 20% grey background to the paragraph. Can the same be done with Frame?

    Reference Page Conundrum

    Working w/ Frame 7.2 I've designed a new layout for our documentation, and while I've got a nice design for a chapter header, I can't figure out how to achieve it in Frame w/o having to do it manually for every chapter. It looks kind of like this: XXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXX...

    replacing formats on a large scale

    I've been tasked with overhauling the format and layout of our software manuals. The manuals are currently in ~800 Frame files, using a single set of formats. Once I've created a new template, it's easy enough to use the import format function to replace the formats in a single file. Is there...
