Line up text with baseline guide AND have space between paragraphs
I have text boxes with multiple columns and I want to vertically align the
lines of text across columns, which I've done by aligning my body text style
to the baseline guides. But I also want a space between each paragraph that
is smaller than a whole line spacing (in Word it would be 12pt font with
space after paragraph = 6pt). I have tried adjusting my baseline guide
spacings and my style paragraph settings to every possible combination but I
can't seem to achieve this.
Settings currently are:
body text = TNR 10pt, line spacing 10pt
baseline guide = spacing = 13pt, offset = 0
This gives me the spacing I want and it's all nicely lined up, but I have no
extra space between paragraphs. I'm very close to resorting to blank
paragraphs of a different size, but would really rather not! Tag: Why are my publisher emails not sending? Tag: 175086
Completely, totally and utterly OT: Picture It Photo & Print Studi
Yes, I know the app in the subject's ancient (released towards the back-end
of 2001, IIRC) but ISTR that the images and clip-art were of very high
quality and I'd like to access it for general usage (i.e. in Publisher and
PagePlus X2).
I have installed PIP&PS no probs, and can launch it but, when I attempt to
open any project (whether blank or predesigned) I am, rather unceremoniously,
without the merest hint of an error message, dumped back to the desktop. Now,
I am thinking that, when it was first released, XP (I'm running Home SP2) was
still either in beta, or had just been released, which is probably the cause
of my woes. Now, M$, as is its wont, has encased the images and clips inside
proprietary 'sbs' and 'sbt' archives (it's the former that actually contain
the needed - the latter just look like some kind of 'pointer' file).
So, I suppose my question is twofold: -
1) Can I persuade PI to open its own projects
and/or
2) Is there any way of extracting the images from within the 'shoebox' files
(I did find something called 'xtractor.exe' but that doesn't appear to want
to run outside of PIP ('unable to decompress the package due to corrupt
archive.' I've no idea what it means by 'corrupt archive' - I assume it's
referring to itself).
I am attempting to design a flyer for a friend's chocolaterie - and am
wanting to do it the lazy way!
Any chance of this working; or am I, as I suspect, SOL?
*I believe this was called Picture It Publishing 2002 in the US/Canada.
Cheers my little chickadees,

P.S. Sorry if this appears twice - IE crashed when I attempted to post it
the first time! Tag: Why are my publisher emails not sending? Tag: 175083

mail merge troubleshooting
I am looking for troubleshooting help in Publisher 2003 mail merge. We are
trying to add mailing addresses to a full color 4 page 8 1/2 x 11 booklet.
Original booklet file is 13 MG. 300 Addresses are in an Excel file. I have
tried 2 different excel files.
We got this to work once for 1/2 the list before it quit. In November I got
it to work, albeit slowly, and 10 addresses at a time.
I have since had the registry fix installed and double-checked by our IT dept.
Since the registry fix, I cannot print the file, or pdf it with anything
involving a merge. I also tried to cancel the merge. Since I cancelled the
merge, the merge wizard is greyed out.
Any suggestions?
I have searched the Help files and the forums; The past week I have tried
everything I can think of. Am working off my desktop; Also tried renamings,
re-copying original, etc.
Is there a Bible on Publisher merges that goes indepth? We would really like
to use the merge feature, but we need to iron out the kinks first.
Thanks! Tag: Why are my publisher emails not sending? Tag: 175073

Standard picture size
I am creating a mail merge document using an Excel spreadsheet as a data
source. I have 4 pictures per page. The spreadsheet stores the pathname for
the pictures, which I use as a merge field in the Publisher document. The
pictures have been cropped to different sizes, but I need them all to be 3x3
in my finshished merge documents. Is there some way to force the pictures to
fit the frame, even though this will distort the picture somewhat?

Cannot access a Publisher doc without my printserver being on
I can start up my Publisher program but cannot access a doc, either new
template or an active one, without having my print server turned on. As
publisher boots up, it looks for the print server and if it doesn't see it
across my wireless lan, it gives me a msg that it can't find it. It brings
up Publisher and when I open a doc, I get a Microsoft error and the program
shuts down and starts a loop of opening, producing the err msg, & shutting
down. I have Office 2007 and it doesn't happen with Word or Excel or Outlook.
I can't find this problem listed anywhere in the help files online.

Is Publisher 2003 compatible with my new printer ?
I have a new HP Officejet pro K5400 printer that does not print out my
booklet correctly that I have on publisher 2003. I have downloaded the most
up-dated driver from HP, still does not line up. On my old HP Officejet 6210
I had no problems, I just can't seem to find the correct driver. I spoke to
HP tec service and they suggested that Publisher is not used very much these
days and some printers are not compatible with it ? I can't beleive this is
true.

PbSaveOptions.pbSaveChanges causes exception
I'm trying to automate the daily updating of my company's price list, which
is a publisher file, programmatically. Lots of details I will probably have
to ask about later, but the problem I'm having now is that I can't open my
publisher file using the Application Open() function with the
PbSaveOptions.pbSaveChanges option set. My code looks like this:
Application pubApp = new Application();
Document availabilityDoc = pubApp.Open(availListFile, false,
false, PbSaveOptions.pbSaveChanges);
where 'availListFile' is a string holding the path and filename of the file
I want to open. It's on the local c: drive.
It compiles fine but at runtime I get the exception "Value does not fall
within the expected range." If I change pbSave Changes to either of the
other two options, 'pbPromptToSaveChanges' or 'pbDoNotSaveChanges', I don't
get that exception. However, I really do want my changes saved when I close
the document, and because I want it to execute automatically in the middle
of the night, I don't want to have to answer a prompt. I'm using Visual
Studio 2005 and I've referenced MS Publisher 12.0 Object library. If it
matters, I've got MS Publisher 2007 loaded on my machine.
I don't think it's a permissions issue as I've opened everything up, both
the file and the folder it's in, so there shouldn't be an access issue.
Any ideas how I can get around this and still keep the changes I'll be
making to my file? Thanks!

the correct program
This is by no means a bash against MS Publisher.
I am working with a client that is assembling hundreds of reports utilizing
MS Publisher.
These are intricate financial reports with tables, graphs, charts etc. that
are many pages long, so it is by nature a very intense procedure.
The information comes mainly from Excel workbooks by way of copy and paste.
This has been an OK procedure but the fact remains that to insert a
page...redo page numbers and deal with the idiocincracies of ever changing
information have made this a nightmarish duty to say the least.
Would someone at least give me an idea if my theory is correct that MS Word
would be a better choice in this case for it's very robust nature and
ability to deal with the challenges of long documents over MS Publisher.
It has been working but there are many advantages I see that point to the
use of Word in this case.
Please make your suggestions good, bad and ugly.

Publisher 2003 Bug with aligning at angles?
I made a 3.75" diameter circle and then put more circles inside, each one
0.25" smaller in diameter all the way down to 1.25". Then I drew angle lines
across the diameter of the largest circle, every 7.5 degrees, all around the
circle. I made little rectangles 5mm X 2mm in size and placed them along the
bottom half of the circle where each of the angle lines and the 3.5" circle
intersect (Each of the small rectangles was also rotated to the same angle as
the previously drawn lines that span the diameter of the circles).
I then selected the rectangles on the bottom half of the circle and copied
them. I pasted a copy of the rectangles and grouped them. Then I flipped the
group vertically. When I tried to align the group of rectangles to the top
half of the circle, I found that the little rectangles are out of alignment
and are not where the angle lines and 3.5" diameter circle intersect.
is this a bug? or did I do something wrong. Tag: Why are my publisher emails not sending? Tag: 174993

Publisher 2007 Print preview
Hello,
I am using Publisher 2007 to create a booklet. I have 2 questions. The
booklet pages are 4.25" x 5.5". The layout I'm using is Booklet and
Portrait Orientation. The paper size is 8.5" x 11". I have inserted
page numbers; however, when viewing the booklet in Print Preview, I do
not see the page number on the bottom half of the 8.5" x 11" sheet
even though there are four 4.25"x 5.5" pages showing.
The Page Setup Window says "Prints two pages per sheet of paper." My
questions are: 1) is it possible to print 4 pages on an 8.5" x 11"
sheet of paper with the dimensions of the booklet pages noted above,
and 2) why am I not able to see the page numbers in Print Preview of
the two booklet pages on the lower half of the 8.5 x 11 sheet.
Something tells me it has to do with "Prints two pages per sheet of

mostly text.

Is CMYK problematic in Publisher 2003?
I am creating a 28 page A5, fully colour newsletter which is sent to a
commercial printer as a PDF.
My commercial printer asked for a PDF with colours set up as CMYK.
To do this I created a postcript file and then ran this through Adobe
distiller. It worked but there were problems:
Printing to file (postscript) took 10 minutes for my newsletter to complete.
All graphics had to be manually inserted from file - attempting to use cut
and paste resulted in blank images in the PDF.
I have now been experimenting with the print settings and by changing the
colour from CMYK to RGB has resulted in some big improvements:
I can now print directly to PDF without having to go through the
intermediate step of creating a postscript file
Printing takes 1 not 10 minutes
Images that have been inserted using cut and paste now appear in the
resulting PDF.
So are their known issues with using CMYK in Publisher?
Is my commercial printer going to have kittens as a result of getting RGB
rather than CMYK colours? Tag: Why are my publisher emails not sending? Tag: 174902
