Re: Text entry difficulty
Well, I can only say that FlexiPDF works here flawlessly on a Mac with Parallels Desktop, and always has, including typing text in text boxes.

Re: How make picture transparent ?
In FlexiPDF itself there is no such option. You may select the picture frame, right-click, choose "Image" from the context menu and then "Edit..." or "Edit with..." from the submenu to open the picture in a graphics program of your choice to make it transparent. As a qu...

Re: New dark mode
I'm right there with you, Woody. The first computer I bought was an Atari ST, because at the time it was the only computer (other than the prohibitively expensive Mac) that had a decent black-on-white display.

Re: Scans are black
I admit that this is a very annoying error. But as the SoftMaker people can't reproduce it either, how about a workaround: Instead of importing from scanner into FlexiPDF, why not do the scan with any scanning program, save as PDF and open the PDF in FlexiPDF?

Re: Paste Without Formatting
Strictly speaking, there is no such thing as unformatted text in TextMaker. Text always has formatting (font, style, size). "Paste as unformatted text" means that the pasted text will take the formatting of the place it is pasted into, while "Paste as formatted text" means it wil...

Re: Speaking of fonts ...
I shouldn't worry too much. Even if there is a certain hype about Gill's behaviour now (which has been known since Fiona McCarthy’s biography was published in 1989) Gill Sans is too deeply ingrained in typography and displays all over the world to be discarded easily. But as you are looking for a So...

Re: Hidden first column
If you are really talking about TextMaker (not PlanMaker): Unfortunately, parts of a table (columns or lines) cannot be hidden in TextMaker, they are always visible.

Re: Paste Without Formatting
Yes, but Alt+Ctrl+V opens the "Paste special" dialog where you have to select "Unformatted text" first before pasting. With a self-defined keyboard shortcut for "Paste plain text" pasting as text can be done without an additional dialog.

Re: Paste Without Formatting
How do you proceed? If you use Ctrl+V or the "Paste" command, only formatted text will be pasted. To paste without formatting, you should use the "Paste special" command (Alt+Shift+V) instead. (Ribbon interface: click the black triangle beneath the far left icon in the "Home...

LOL. How well I know this feeling – to have overlooked an obvious solution which was right before my eyes all the time... Anyway, I'm happy that everything is fine now.

Re: looking for text in a specified font
Is there a way to search the text specifying the used font for it ? Yes, there is. When you click "Replace" (ribbon) or Edit > Replace (classic menu), a new dialog box with two tabs opens. Change the tab from "Replace" to "Search", then click the middle button at the b...
