    Which Adobe Product for .PDF to .DOC?

    I'll second that. I'm glad you reminded me. I used it years ago, it was wonderful. Way to go. For .pdf go OCR.

    Remove a watermark in Acorbat 6.0

    Hi guys. Just noticed this on my way out. See my thread there about which prog to use to convert .pdf to .doc Seems .pdf is meant to be unviolable, secure, 'encrypted'(so to speak) communication and those that use it as such are often offended by the very existence of those seeking to...

    Which Adobe Product for .PDF to .DOC?

    Yes, well that's well said and I thank you both for taking the trouble to say it. I've never seen it said so clearly. Certainly never by Adobe (not that I spend much time reading Adobe ads I hasten to add). It is what I thought was the case, though. But I persevere with looking for...

    Which Adobe Product for .PDF to .DOC?

    Thanks for the tip, Mel. I've got Acrobat 5 and it offers me no such choice. I got Solid Converter and it seems to be pretty good. Wouldn't do this file I've got though. It's a spec sheet I've got to forward on while hiding the name of the source and it seems to be written in blue ink on a...

    Which Adobe Product for .PDF to .DOC?

    I just want to either edit .pdf files as they are or change them into something that I can edit, such as a Word .doc I've got Acrobat,Photoshop and Premiere and none of them seem to do the job, though Photoshop comes close, sort of. Can I do it with these products? Or what else do I need? I'm...

    Can't ping my own network

    I've got the two win2k machines pinging each other happily. I had to set something else in the Sygate firewall, even though it had the setting I mentioned. And this machine has Zone Alarm on it - I put the other two machines in the trusted zone there and as a result I can see the other - ping...

    Can't ping my own network

    Well, I've got Sygate on 192.168.1.4 and it has TCP/IP ping command as allowed full access. But I still can't ping it from 192.168.1.5. Times out.

    Can't ping my own network

    HI... I've got a peer to peer network of one win98 machine and two win2k machines, all plugged into a switch and a adsl modem/router also plugged into that switch. I find I can't ping other machines on that network. For instance, this win2k machine I'm writing on is 192.168.1.5 and the...

    How to Use Premier to make a SVCD?

    Thanks again. I've now got a directory with 40 objects in it and my head's spinning... :)

    How to Use Premier to make a SVCD?

    Thanks. I'll take your advice. We've got to learn to move on, don't we. :)

    How to Use Premier to make a SVCD?

    I've got Premier 6 and I want to make SVCD's from my canon A520 film clips and stills. I'm only using Premier because I can't find anything else to do the job. Ulead Movie Factory will make a VCD happily but stops processing SVCD with an error message. And there's some hassle with Power...

    Formatting for Printing as a booklet

    Guys I got the answer from another forum. I'll put it here for those with an interest: It's a standard feature in Word 2002 and up. Just go File/Page Setup and in Margins choose 'book fold'. Set a gutter size. Choose how many pages to have in each binding. Set your orientation. No problem...

    Formatting for Printing as a booklet

    I have a document of some 90+ pages that I want to print out with far fewer pages if I can. It is currently formatted in two columns on landscape oriented A4. That brings it down to 90+ pages. Now the problem is: how to organise it so that I can make a booklet by stapling these pages together...

    Practicality of Object-Oriented Programming

    Please excuse my ignorance - I don't even know what VCL is - and perhaps I shouldn't even be sticking my neck in here but I'm going to anyway.... as quickly as I can... Years ago I was a Clipper programmer. Way before OOPs. That's an extensible compilable dBase language, or was. Very looked...

    Disable All Keypresses

    That's what I'm doing - putting pictures and sounds with the keypresses. The problem I'm trying to address now - and I've sort of wasted everyone's time from the beginning of this thread getting down to an accurate description of it - is 'how to keep him in the programme?' I don't much...

    Disable All Keypresses

    Ah.. right.. now we're getting to it. I'm so stupid. Windows multi tasking programming is so foreign to me. Yes, that's the whole point. I want him locked in to his programme and nothing else. That's right. I don't want the 'Windows' key or clicking outside the programme window to allow...

    Disable All Keypresses

    Well I got something done and it half works. I didn't get to try disabling keypresses with the Peekmessage() thing but I used VK_Key and I found that some are recognised and some are not. My programme wouldn't recognise and/or act upon VK_F1 or any other function key. Worked well with the...

    Excel macro to parse a column needed

    I've got a very long column which lists purchases of many different things... often recorded in slightly different ways... 'screwdriver 6inch','driver, screw 6inch', 'screwdriver blade 6inch' and so on.... I need something to go down that column and find the first thing not already dealt with...

    Disable All Keypresses

    Still haven't done it... but I've thought of another thing I probably need... the mouse clicks. I need to disable the mouse and/or handle the clicks.... :) (snuck in ten minutes and at this very moment the child is bashing my arm and forcing me out of the seat)

    Disable All Keypresses

    Thank you, guys. Especially paubri for his comprehensive help. It only remains for me to do the job now. I will post my results, Giovanni, as soon as I've got some. (little children don't leave you much time to do things..)
