    Free optima font for PM and Word?

    Dear All I'm hoping you can help me by giving me some ideas. I am looking for a free copy of Optima font for pc via the internet. I have tried the 1001 free fonts and when I look for it it asks me to pay £22 - annoyingly I only need it for one headline, but as it's a company name I want it to...

    New PC throws PM and Distiller into chaos

    Hi, actually I just managed to solve it. I reinstalled a new postscript printer driver and deleted the old one, which for some reason no longer worked. Thanks anyway. Getting a thing about blues and purples

    New PC throws PM and Distiller into chaos

    Dear Geniuses I have a new pc, so very much faster than the old one. I have reloaded PM7 from disk onto the machine and apart from looking different, due to menu preferences etc, it seemed to work just the same. I loaded the postscript printer driver also from the disk, along with distiller...

    PS printer option gone!

    Actually (feeling foolish) it was neither. I just found it on the PM disk! It works fine now. I found that I can't download actionable files, due to network security, put a request in to IT to get them for me, from the Adobe site, as you mentioned, but then found this solution before they...

    PS printer option gone!

    Hi All, it's been a while since I was here, mainly because I hadn't been doing much PM work lately, but it is now back with a venegance. I think that what has happened is that the IT dept have deleted the PS printer option from my print menu, as I cannot print to file on anything but my...

    Opinions needed, Paint Shop Pro with PM

    Dear All Recently I tried Paint Shop Pro and really liked it for altering photographic images etc. I have been managing with Corel Photo Paint for a while now and am finding it a bit cumbersome. I use PM 7 and wondered if any of you used PSP 8 and if so, what you thought of it. I am on...

    Half page missing on placed table

    Thank you, this was very helpful. It was the settings being used by distiller. I distilled the word tables, turned them into .pdfs, placed them in the main document, which I then used distiller to turn into a .pdf again and hey presto! Mended document. Much appreciated!!! Getting a thing...

    Half page missing on placed table

    Thanks for this Eggles. Unfortunately, I'm now having trouble with this too. I am going into word, saving the table as a postscript printer file and then taking it into distiller to make a .pdf. When I place the pdf into the PM document, it has lost most of it's fonts, lost colour and the...

    Half page missing on placed table

    Hi. I have created a table in word which links into the Pagemaker document and seems to work fine. If I double click on it, I can edit in Word and save it and then it amends the Pagemaker file. (This is a brochure). However, I just exported it as a .pdf and it has cut a quarter of a page from...

    Justified text block problems

    I looked back and back through the archives til I came across a really handy little tip about formatting still being in place from word (if you have placed the text) and conflicting with the formatting in PM. I took the text and cut it, pasted it into notepad (to remove all formatting) replaced...

    Justified text block problems

    Hi, I am compiling my newsletter in pagemaker 7 and when I take a block of text and justify it, it is force justifying some words on the last line, which is frustrating and looks k i n d o f l i k e t h i s. I try selecting just those last words and left...

    Exporting to pdf getting worse

    You may have hit on it Vio*ion. I have (obsessively) been trying to export one document in particular. I just tried it with the advert I am working on and it did it fine. I'll have a go at this document adn see what happens. Getting a thing about blues and purples

    Choosing colors for text

    I have a colour problem too, cannot find a way to specify the pantone colour I want in Corel 8. Am I missing something really obvious? (like a braincell?) Getting a thing about blues and purples
