Thanks, Jossi for your interest. It may seem an old fashioned view, but I think if a vendor is charging money for a product, it ought to do what it is supposed to do. For many people, it seems that this is so, but for me, with a perfectly ordinary multi purpose printer/scanner/copier from one of the...

That's if I can get it to work!

Thanks for your response. My version doesn't offer a scanner dialog, it just goes straight to the scanning process. See Thursday's message above, you will see that I have tried all the listed scanners, with no result. As it happens, because I had an urgent document I needed to deal with, I had used ...

Miguel-c, good to see you are still active. I am at a loss to understand your suggestion of changing to colour, as I cannot find any option to do so. When asking to 'import from scanner' the only options are to select the scanner and the output, and I have studied the online manual and can find no r...

Thanks again Woody, I have uninstalled all my listed printers in Windows and reinstalled the MG3650, and get exactly the same result, blank white page. I would think the scanner might be the problem, were it not that any other scanning programme I try gives me perfect results. I have gone so far as ...

Hi, Woody44, I have tried with both, image comes out black, editable text comes out white.
Softmaker suggested I try all the scanner options listed but only three were, HP TWAIN and my Canon MG3650 in two guises, and none of them gave me a usable result (or any result except a blank page).

Hi, I am using FlexiPDF 2022 and Windows 11.
When using 'new document>open>import from scanner' the resultant scan is totally black.
The scanner Canon MG3650 is working fine, other scanning apps produce true results.
Any suggestions as to what is going on?

Brilliant. Worked like a dream, easy when you know how isn't it?

Thanks Supertech, that works fine on columns between columns, but when I click on the 'half' triangle to the left of what is my column B, the triangle disappears, but the column A does not appear!
The 'half' triangle reappears if I close and reopen the sheet.

Thanks, that shows how frustrated I have become, of course I am working in Planmaker and should have used that, not Textmaker!

Hi, I am tearing my hair out, trying to show a first column A which is hidden because I don't need to see it, it is there as part of a formula which needs the first column to contain... Well, its hidden and I want it to be visible. I have read the manual, searched the net, and only found ways to ret...

Hi, I normally run Softmaker NX Home, but after the SM email about inclusion of Chatgpt, thought I should try it. So, I have downloaded and opened in Linux Mint 21.1 Vera, but I can find no reference to SmartChat. The program is identified in 'About' as Planmaker/Textmaker NX Home-Beta(rev S1112.060...

Hello, I have been using Planmaker very happily for some years, and have not come across this problem before, although I do not often need to print in landscape, and it may be that I have not done so since I migrated from Windows to Kubuntu 21.10 late last year. The problem is, I want to print a sin...

Hello again, I am posting as soon as I discover that I have solved my own problem! Being baffled, I decided to read the manual (always a last resort!) and I discovered that I had been deluding myself by changing the highlighted file path to that of the new OS, and checking and updating with all of t...

Hello, I have just stopped using Windows and gone to Linux (Kubuntu as it happens) and the new download of Softmaker 2021 Home has gone well. However, a problem has cropped up, which I thought I had raised on an earlier version, but I can find no reference on the forum. As a result of the change of ...
