Speaking of printing problems in PM 7, have you noticed that Adobe claims that one of the fixes in its patch for 7.0 was that you could now print the euro symbol (€). I think maybe Adobe's boast was premature, because I haven't been able to get my postscript HP IV printer to print it, even when...

Thanks for the tip on copying text from Word into PM. Very helpful. Now my question is: what about going the other way? There isn't exactly a "Place" item in Word's File menu. Should one use "Insert Object?" When I DO copy-and-paste from PM into Word, I find that parts of...

Thanks, that's very helpful. All the time on the web I'll get a dialog box that says "This page does not support certain scripts," etc., with "Line so-and-so" cited. I click the message off, sometimes it refuses to go quietly, but I wonder if most web users get these same...

Excuse my appalling ignorance, but just what is using "script" in PM or any other program? Ted Voelkel

Jeez, you have me there. I don't know of any command in PM that makes it count up the number of pages in a document and then put that total on the master page. The total number of pages in a document is determined by the volume of text, whether you add each new page as you type your way along...

The only way I know how to create a page numbering scheme of (e.g.)"Page 2 of 10" would be to put the "Page" and the "of 10" part of it on the master page as simple text, and then to use the command Ctrl + Alt + P to create CODE for auto page numbering, then bracket...

You've been very generous with your time, and I hesitate to impose again. Have you tried opening a PM 7 file in In Design? Does the original PM file actually "come up" in InDesign so that if you didn't know better you'd think you were still in PageMaker?

Wow, you're right. You just open a text block with the text tool, then click C/A/P and presto the "LM" (or "RM") appears. I just never did it that way. I just typed LM on the L master, copied that text, and pasted it on the R master, and "RM" of course would...

HOLY MACKEREL! Yes, Ctrl + Alt + P does it. You didn't mention that you need to SELECT "LM" and "RM" on the master pages and then Click Ctrl + Alt + P on the selected text. That did it for me. Now I'm really puzzled: in the past, I have used LM and RM all the time (on...

But page autonumbering code (LM, RM), is simply typed on the master page LIKE ORDINARY TEXT. The master page is supposed to recognize "LM" and "RM" as being code, and so create the page numbers accordingly. In my case, as I said, the master page IS reproducing the...

Thanks so much -- always nice to talk with a fellow PageMaker, uh, sufferer. I mean, PM's marvelous when everything's working, but on other occasions . . . For example: In a newly opened PM file, when I paste into it text from an older PM file, the text sheds its original type attributes and...

Oh yes, I tried it again and again on various files. The problem has come up on files created only after the first update (7.0.1). It's something screwy. So to autonumber, I have to copy-and-paste the LM and RM from older files onto the master pages of a new file. Oddly, when I do this...

I find something screwy in PM 7 regarding AUTOMATIC PAGE NUMBERING. When I put "LM" and "RM" on the master pages, like I'm used to doing, what pops up on the document pages are just "LM" (left pages) and "RM" (right pages), NOT THE PAGE NUMBERS I WANT...
