    - Publisher Clip Art For some reason, when I save my bulletin with clip art and come back to work on it, all the clip art is gone. I re-insert it save it, close it, it vanishes upon reopening. I have restarted the bulletin about a dozen times from scratch. I can go edit old bulletins, insert art and it's fine. My new publication, on the other hand, won't save the art.

    - save publisher document to word I need to save a Newsletter that is created in Publisher, to a word document. I know that you can copy and paste and that should work fine, but when I paste it into the word document, everything is in the wrong place and part of it is gone because it prints at the right side of the page and you can't get to it. Does anyone have any idea what would be causing this and how I can fix it? Thank you, Tracy Tag: how do I set up a handbook? Tag: 178330

    - newsletter mail merge I need to produce 1600 newsletters on a konica biz hub using publisher 2007 running windows XP pro. I am using pitney bowes smart mailer for my mail merge. this results in 1,600 individual jobs and the color newletter is quite large so it takes about 5 minutes per newsletter to send it to the printer. I would like to sent the newsletter once and have the Konica insert the mail merge into each newletter page needing the address information. I have been told there is a 3rd party plug in that will do that for publisher. Bob Kirk Tag: how do I set up a handbook? Tag: 178314

    - Printing too high I have Publisher 2003 and have just producaed a 2-page document. Every time I print it, the pinting goes to the very top of both pages, leaving a large area of white at the bottom instead of being centered. I have checked out the printer, and it is OK. It prints Word docs and other Publisher docs OK. It just seems to be a problem with this specific document, but I can't work out why. Tag: how do I set up a handbook? Tag: 178312

    - image problems Hi all, sorry if this appears as a double posting but my earlier posting 4 hours ago has not appeared yet. A local business using Publisher 2000 has created a number of templates (most of the content is images) They have now upgraded to Publisher 2002. The basic pictures are all 529 x 358 pixels. (an aspect ratio of 1.477 : 1 ) The placeholders are at varying aspect ratios ranging from 1.33:1 through to 1.47:1 but it appears that the pictures all autoresize ( and distort to a varying degree as a result) to fit the placeholders in full ( the placeholders all have a border so this is plainly visible) However this does not happen in 2002 or 2003. In these programs the images fill the frame in one dimension only leaving white in the other dimension. I know this is the way things shold be to avoid picture distortion but the client cannot understand this and wants to retain the old behaviour despite the ditortion caused. Anyone got any observations please. It appears to me that 2000 was buggy in this respect can anyone concur please or am I missing something here. Ron Tag: how do I set up a handbook? Tag: 178303

    - using Mail Merge with 4-up postcards I just tried to use mail merge with postcards I created in Publisher that are 4-up on a page. The date file is a simple address file in Excel. When I completed the merge, each sheet of 4 postcards has the same address on it - instead of 4 different addresses on each sheet. What did I do wrong? Can this be corrected?

    - Background Sound will not play when previewed in Publisher 2007 I am currently evaluating Publisher 2007 via the trial version. I have created a webpage. The problem is this, I have added background sounds to all my pages, however, when I preview the site on Internet Explorer 7, it will not play. The background sound files have the .mid extension and they will not play. This is becoming very frustrating. I have checked my computer to make sure all my audio settings are functioning properly and I have also checked to make sure that Internet Explorer is compatible with this program. Any advice?

    - Background objects printing in front of foreground objects Hi there, I have a strange problem that I can't seem to fix. I have been given a publication to print that has page numbers inserted in the background. I wanted to remove the numbers for the cover and inside cover and so tried to place a text box with a fill over the top of it as suggested in the help. For some reason, the background page number is printing in front of the foreground text box with fill, even though on screen you can't see the background page number. I've tried doing this in a new publication and it works as expected, so is there a setting somewhere that is doing this, or has the file become corrupted in some way?

    - Change font throughout a publication Hi there, I am trying to change the font scheme throughout a publication (multiple pages, text boxes, tables etc!), so I am guessing that I want to create a font scheme to do this easily. I am using Publisher 2003. I don't want to change my default normal font (when I searched how to change fonts this was a suggestion), as I actually need to change the publication into five different fonts (i.e. save as five different versions, each in a different font). It appears that you can create a font scheme in Publisher 2007, can this be done (and how!) in 2003. Or is there another (easy!) way to change a font throughout a publication.

    - Linked header and footer file/image Hi, I am trying to find a way to link all of our publisher documents to stored header & footer images or files. I surpose this is a dynamic document. e.g. If I want to change a telephone number on the footer, I would edit one file, and this would replicate across all documents (much the same way a website is designed). We have recently changed the footer on our documents, saved and printed to .pdf. Then I have had to make a small change to the footer, which is very time consuming to go through the many files we have. I would like to implement dynamic documents so our header/footer images are consistent and easy to update. I would only need to print all documents to .pdf if a change was in the future. I hope this is acheiveable - it would make my life so much easier! Thanks in advance! Tag: how do I set up a handbook? Tag: 178252

    - Blue and red lines in layout guides I know this must be a fairly fundamental question - but I have alwayss wondered the significance of the red and blue lines in layout guides. I know HOW to use layout guides and alter them. I also understand RULER guides. What I don't know is WHY we are provided with both red and blue lines in layouts - I know I can alter the position of margins but this moves both red and blue lines. Is it possible to alter the distance between these 2 different lines and what is their significance. Just asking as I wonder if I'm missing something crucial here.

    - Replace image I seem to be suffering real problems here - sorry to post so often. I need to produce a template with image placeholders on some pages. I had no problem in Publisher 2000 or in 2003 but a client is using 2002 which appears to work differently. I do not appear to be able to create a BLANK image placeholder using 2002. In an attempt to work around I created an image of the requisite size (529 x 358 pixels )and put that in position. My hope was that I could then use the REPLACE image option (right click on image) but I find that the new image (which is the same size in pixels) appears on the page in a different size. In both 2000 and 2003 the image auto resized to the size of the placeholder. I'm getting a bit desperate here and would really appreciate any help.

    - publisher 2003 compared to 2002 - insert picture Hi, it appears that 2002 behaves differently than 2003 when you try to insert a picture. I am using a template created in Publisher 2000 by someone else which has placeholders for images. If I use 2003 and doubleclick when using the top "Select Objects" tool in the image placeholder then I get the insert picture dialog appear I choose the image and it is resized to fit the placeholder dimension. However if I do the same thing in 2002 then I simply get the format autoshape dialog. In additon I note that if I try to create an EMPTY placeholder for an image using 2002 the help file directs me to create the placeholder then click cancel in the insert image dialog and then resize the box. After I click cancel the box actually disappears what is going on please? Is it me or is this a bug or incompatibility issue between versions. thanks Ron Tag: how do I set up a handbook? Tag: 178194
