I'm near finishing my 4th English/Arabic book design with InDesign CS4 Middle East version, and suddenly it's is refusing to show grids, text and picture box frames, and guides. Keyboard shortcuts don't work (Command ;) and nor does the Menu (View>Grids & Guides>Show guides). I've restarted the...

I'm near finishing my 4th English/Arabic book design, and suddenly InDesign is refusing to show grids, text and picture box frames, and guides. Keyboard shortcuts don't work (Command ;) and nor does the Menu (View>Grids & Guides>Show guides). I've restarted the computer (G5 desktop, OS 10.5.8)...

Simple problem, can't find an answer. I have yet another client who wants business stationery including letterhead. She wants this as a Word template on her hard drive, so she can pull it up and type the day's correspondence on it. My design (in InDesign, exported as PDF) is just one font...

I have an Excel list of subscribers and I want to send reminders to those whose subs have lapsed. One column has the dates of lapsed subs, another has their email addresses. Is there a way of 'merging' these into a standard letter, to send reminders automatically to everyone whose sub has lapsed?

A publisher has asked if I can open a book file written in ClarisWorks (version unknown) with InDesign. I'm using InDesign CS4 (Middle East version) on a Mac G5. Is anyone old enough to be able to answer this?

I want to montage small photos onto a large one. I erase the background of the small photos, but they only erase to white. I need feathery edges, so a clipping path is not appropriate. How do I erase a background to transparent?

Using Photoshop CS3 with Mac OSX 10.5.5. Every time I click on the type tool, or press T, it freezes and shows a window saying "could not complete your request because of a program error". Then I have to force-quit to get out of it. Seems to be only the type tool which is faulty. When I...

Just installed MS Office 2004 on my Mac (OS-X 10.4.11) but none of the suite will open. They just keep displaying window after window saying this or that font is corrupt. As I've got thousands of fonts this will take for ever. When I trashed it and re-installed it did the same, so even if I went...
