    - files changed to read only I had a folder located in "my documents" titled "Publisher files" which had several sub-folders inside. Now all of a sudden the folder is missing, but I am able to find the files by searching via Windows by selecting .pub as the parameter. In the search results file it shows the string where they once were located but the subfolders are all gone and every file is marked "read only" when opening it from the search results area. The only change to my system was installing the Master Collection of Adobe Photoshop 3 and all the stuff that came with it. What steps should I take to move the files back to a working location and any ideas on what actually happened? Thank you. Tag: Print format changes when saving as a PDF Tag: 176888

    - Creating Text Box in Publisher 2007 Crashes the Application Hello, we have a clean install of Publisher 2007 under Windows XP SP2, and when we try to create a text box in a document, (both an existing document and a blank document), publisher crashes. Office is fully patched. I ran Office Diagnostics from the help menu and no problems were found and the issue persists. Any thoughts on how to resolve the issue?

    - A converter for Publisher 2003,2007 files to open in Publisher 20 If I am sent Publisher files made in the newer versions of Publisher, why wont they open in Publisher 2000? Is there a converter available as there is for Word file conversions? This incompatiblity between versions is a major irritation. Why does Microsoft FORCE people into costly upgrades when previous versions are working well?? Later versions of MS programs are sometimes worse containing more annoying features than the more straightforward previous ones. The change of layout etc is also disconcerting.

    - several greeting cards to pdf I have MS Publisher 2007 and have downloaded the MS pdf add-in. I have several 4-page greeting cards that I have designed, each in a separate Publisher file. To change these to pdf files, I have to do them individually and end up with as many individual pdf files. Can I put all of my 4-page greeting cards onto one Publisher file, and then convert the whole lot into one pdf file? Anne. Tag: Print format changes when saving as a PDF Tag: 176879

    - different fonts installed on different computers (1) Very odd: I installed Office Ultimate a couple of months ago on my desktop. Now, installed it as well on my laptop. I find a font ("teen") installed on my laptop, but not the desktop....and it was installed from the same DISK 1. So, where is that font (and potentially others?) on my desktop? How do I know that I have all the fonts possible on both computers? (2) When successfully installing Office Ultimate on the laptop, it never asked me for Disk 2?? What's on that? What should I do? thx Richard Tag: Print format changes when saving as a PDF Tag: 176851

    - changing font displays on the run In Publisher 2007, I may type a word, then want to see it in many fonts to make a choice. It's a laborious process. 1) highlight the work, 2) go to FORMAT, FONT and see an example of the font, BUT NOT THE ACTUAL WORD, view the change on the page, 3) rehighlight the word, 4) return to the FORMAT, FONT option, 5) choose another, 6) close that out, etc. So, is there anyway, that I can roll over fonts and watch them change on the page, or have the actual word displayed in each font style? There has to be an easier way to sample a word in 20 different fonts in order to make a decision. I seem to remember that there was such an option in Word or earlier Publisher versions...but that might have been an halucination. Any tips?

    - Table cells. Hello to all my good friends out there. I have created a table with a size of 3.6cm high by 20cm wide. The table itself is 4 cells by 4 cells. If I decide to play about with the size of the individual cells making them higher, wider or shorter etc but then decide that I want them equally distributed in width and/or height again, is there easy way to do this. I cannot seem to do this without having to recreate a new table. The overall table size obviously must stay the same. Your help is and always has been very much appreciated. thanking you in anticipation. <-><-><-><-> Big Rick Tag: Print format changes when saving as a PDF Tag: 176847

    - Header/footer/page number problem Hello! Could someone please help me to add headers and page numbers to every page, but the first three pages of a booklet. Page 1 and the header should actually start on Page 4. I'm creating a business directory in booklet format, selected under Layout View, in Publisher 2003. I added page numbers, starting with Page 1 on the third page of the booklet. I inserted a section then entered the page numbers. Everything looks fine -- until I decided to add headers. When I decided to add headers I can only get them to show on every other page, despite trying the two page option on the Master Page procedure. When I try to select single page/two page, as per the instructions, I get a message stating that my document is going to be changed to a single page document. Also, when I try to follow these instructions: "In the Edit Master Pages task pane, click the arrow next to the single master page where you want to create facing headers and footers, and then click Edit," I'm at a loss. There is no arrow and no edit, unless they mean "edit" on the toolbar at the top of the page. After following all of Publisher's instructions, I find that the page numbering stays the same, but I get headers on every page, even on those I want to be blank. Any help will be appreciated.

To make this feature available, run Setup again, click "Add or Remove Features" and change the feature to "Run from My Computer". I have done this. I have uninstalled Publisher and still get the same message after installation. After I re-installed it, it now opens up to a blank template, with this error message.

    - Dishwasher Safe Keyboards and Mice Just sharing some info I came across the other day. If you are like me, having a cup of coffee, soft drink or even a glass of wine and a Boscotti there is a good chance some or all will end up on the keyboard. Unless you use one of those plastic keyboard covers (I presently do) the keyboard is kaput if a spill occurs. Well, now there is available a dishwasher safe (and germ free) keyboard and mouse for those oops moments. Take a look here: http://www.sealshield.com/ P.S. I got my present keyboard in 1991 with a Micron Computer and on my second keyboard cover; next keyboard will be a Seal Shield, me thinks. I have no connection with Seal Shield or do I sell anything; I'm retired and devote my spare time to an Asus shopbuilt computer. -- Don - Vancouver, USA "May your shadow be found in happy places." - Native North American Tag: Print format changes when saving as a PDF Tag: 176762

What do you mean *back to default*? Are you using a template? You might save the
file first and then convert. What version Publisher? Are you using Acrobat?
