Can you post a sample in that font?

Re: Digital signature validation

Another follow-up to the recent notification that SoftMaker has taken over direct control of the future development of FlexiPDF (and, I hope, FreePDF as well). The attached image is a screen shot from the free FoxIt PDF Reader. I have highlighted where it automatically pops up a panel notifying the ...

Re: Measuring tools?

I apologize if I'm beating a dead horse, but I have read the e-mail from SoftMaker about the shift in development of FlexiPDF, and I hope this will result in adding features that will make FlexiPDF (and FreePDF) competitive with the competition. I mentioned above about adding a measuring tool. Not o...

Re: Spell check doesn't work in portable editions

"Check spelling as you type" is checked. How do I verify that the Hunspell dictionary for American English is installed? When I click the box for Hunspell dictionaries, I don't see anything listed. I guess that's what we call a "clue"? How do I install a dictionary? I am in the U...

Re: Spell check doesn't work in portable editions

Further update: I found a USB thumbdrive with an older version of FreeOffice on it. I don't know the year, but it's old enough that it doesn't offer the ribbon interface option. Maybe 2012 or 2015? On that one, spell checking works. I have checked all of them and they all have the language correctly...

Re: Spell check doesn't work in portable editions

Update:

I have FreeOffice 2021 installed on a Windows 10 laptop computer. I just tried a sample document on that computer and the same thing happened. I intentionally misspelled several words, and the spell check didn't pick up any errors.

Spell check doesn't work in portable editions

I have a friend in Europe who writes for a special interest, on-line magazine. He currently uses Microsoft Word 2021. Microsoft is pushing everyone toward the subscription model, so we expect that Office 2021 will be the last non-subscription version available. The end-of-support for both 2016 and 2...

Re: Page numbers

Use chapter breaks. Use "Insert field" to place the page numbers. Then us "Format Chapter" > "Page Numbers" to change the page numbering.

Megafont NOW equivalent for Jenson?

Does the Megafont NOW collection include an analog for Adobe Jenson? Many of the font names in Megafont NOW seem to be chosen to provide hints as to the "name brand" equivalents, but there aren't many that begin with 'J' and Jessica doesn't appear to be a clone of Jenson. Jenson seems to b...

Brain dead customer support

SoftMaker - Do you use artificial "intelligence" for customer support? I recently used e-mail to send a suggestion for improvement of FreePDF (and FlexiPDF). I did NOT ask any questions, and I did NOT request any product support. I offered in good faith a suggestion intended to help make y...

Re: Enlarge and reduce font size shortcut

Yes, that works -- in Word. You are correct, it doesn't work in TextMaker (and it also doesn't work in LibreOffice Writer). [Note: For those who may be confused, the original post showed the shortcut as ctrl+< and ctrl+>. After I reported that it didn't work, the OP edited it to ctrl+shft+< and ctrl...

Re: FlexiPDF not printing to virtual printer

PrintDisp is enabled. It was not disabled.

The FlexiPDF virtual printer still does not "print."
