Re: Can you copy and paste formats and create gray boxes?

As you cross-posted your question in the Mac forum and in the iOS forum, you will find my answer in the iOS forum (for both systems). Please ask questions in one place only to avoid confusion.

Re: DeepL

DeepL translation is only available in SoftMaker Office NX, not in SoftMaker Office 2024.

Re: Can you copy formats and create grayed out text boxes?


Hi, I wanted to know if it is possible to copy and paste formats in TextMaker, just like it is is possible to do in Word. I can't find a way to do this in either the Mac version or the ipad version.
A quick and easy way to transfer a format is by using the Format painter on the Home ribbon (in ...

Re: Is there a way to exactly size a form field?

The easiest way is to activate the grid (View > Grids and Guides > Snap to grid). Then you can draw a textbox form field with exactly the measures you need.

Re: Line spacing in bullets

As every bullet starts a new paragraph, you can solve this via paragraph format by inserting an appropriate paragraph spacing before.

Re: Bullet points missing

A sample document would be helpful. If the document contains private information you might replace the text with something harmless and retain the document structure.

Re: apostrophe

Are you talking about apostrophes or about quotation marks? If your problem is that quotation marks are looking like „this“, go to Tools > Options, Tab “General”, click “Auto correction...” and set “Smart quotes” to your language, “Auto” or “None”.

Re: scanned background, change to white?

Hi, the file you attached is a jpg file, not a pdf. It can be opened in FlexiPDF though and it can be part of a PDF, but basically it is an image file. As FlexiPDF is not a graphics programme, you can't do image processing in FlexiPDF itself. When you choose the Object tool, then select the image ...

Re: Training Courses?

I must admit that I am generally more at ease with a written manual than with video courses. That said, when I gave TextMaker a first try more than twenty years ago, I sat down for one weekend and went through the manual from start to finish. Afterwards, I had mastered the programme, not only the ...

Re: SoftMaker User Forum is broken

You are not alone. I am working with Firefox 144.0.2 on a Mac and have been unable to get access to the forum using Firefox for the last ten days or so. I have already reported the issue in the German forum. Every time I try to log in, I get a timeout error message. The funny thing is that the Login ...

Re: Planmaker xlsx files not recognized as proper excel when importing into other software

Sorry, I couldn't reproduce the issue anymore. Seems to have been a defect of one specific file, not a general problem with PlanMaker.

Re: A fifth product, datamaker

That's the point. It is already something of a miracle that such a small firm (IIRC they have less than 50 employees) is able to develop such premium office software as they do and compete with Microsoft. Years ago there was a database app called Datamaker to complete the office suite; but SoftMaker ...

Prima di selezionare le immagini, passa alla modalità Oggetto. In questo modo funzionerà.
