Re: How to Text direction in a cell


Let me make one thing clear: I’ve loved Softmaker Office NX for several months now, and I love it because it’s lightweight and free of unnecessary features . Softmaker Office NX runs smoothly precisely because it lacks unnecessary features and instead offers useful ones. You’re probably thinking ...

Re: "Printing" to PDF Questions

The file I used was a complete book. I re-created the issue using a sample book file. The book is formatted for a page size of 5 inches x 8 inches. Using the export to PDF from within TextMaker, the page size comes through correctly. However, when using the FlexiPDF virtual printer, although the ...

Re: Master pages, file size, and memory


Master pages are a chapter-based feature, because allowing only one set of master pages per document would reduce the design options enormously. However, when I insert a chapter break into a document, the new chapter inherits the chapter format from the first one, including first, left and right ...

Re: Master pages, file size, and memory

Wow!

I just took a novel of twenty chapters, approximately 150 pages, and re-formatted it using a graphic image (JPEG) as a page border, placing the page border image (and nothing else) on master pages. I had some surprises.

First, inserting a page border doesn't automatically put the border on ...

Master pages, file size, and memory

I need some advice and guidance with respect to using master pages in TextMaker. First, some background:

Several years ago, the 12-year old daughter of a good friend wrote a charming little story about a young girl dragon who became a heroine. At Thanksgiving (the American holiday in late November ...

Section & Chapter break problem

I have a master document (template) for a monthly newsletter that was created in Microsoft Word 2016. The format calls for article headlines to span the full (margin) width of the pages, but the body text of each article occupies two columns. In Word, this is accomplished by using a continuous ...

Re: PDF/UA

Update:

I just received an e-mail from an agency of the Connecticut (U.S.) state government citing a new requirement that ALL web sites and documents published or distributed by state and local government entities must comply with PDF/UA (ISO 14289) standards.

This is not something that SoftMaker ...

The Noto Color Emojis "font" is a Google monstrosity. If you are having problems with it, blame Google.

Re: [New proposal] Add a ‘Dark Documment' feature to the Presentation software for computers and mobile phones


Right now, the Softmaker team is standing up for me. User woody 44 has given in and figured everything out.

Re: "Printing" to PDF Questions

This is an old discussion, but I am reviving it because I am getting a couple of new books ready for print (through Amazon, which involves uploading a PDF of the formatted manuscript) and going through the process revives the shortcomings of the FlexiPDF virtual printer.

Example: I have a book that ...

Re: [Feature suggestion] Change the colour of the Planmaker Edit bar on mobile and desktop


Generally speaking, you have done an excellent job with the workspace colour customisation. Adding colour customisation for the edit bar in Planmaker is absolutely essential . It will help users quickly distinguish between different software components by colour. Colour is a key factor in enabling ...
