    - spanish characters I need to type Spanish characters (like the upside down ?) in Publisher. I used to use the alt and numbers system - now I have a laptop with no keypad and it no longer seems to work. I enabled Spanish on my computer in Microsoft office tools - is there something else I need to do? Thanks Tag: stupid Tag: 152317

    - Right and Left side pages in 2 page view with sections I'm building a workbook, I want a cover page (right side orientation) an inside cover page (right side orientation) and then I want to begin the content with an introduction page also with right side orientation. I am using the 2-page view to lay out the pages for 3-hole punch, so the master page margins & guides & page numbering is set up for that. I've tried re-doing sections in 1-page view and in 2-page view to try to force the new sections to start on the right-hand page like the beginning of the document will do, but I can't figure out how to make the sections do that as well without inserting a blank page to substitute for the left-side page... and of course, when I do that, the page numbering starts with 2 on the page I want to be 1 even when I ignore master on the blank left side page. I'm so confused! Help! Thanks! Tag: stupid Tag: 152311

    - i need to have more text options in a running writting font I have to format a logo from a hand written sign. The text "Script MT Bold" is quite acceptable but the 'f' needs to have a loop on the bottom not on the top. The dot above the 'i' needs to be round not square. Is there any way I can develop the text that I need or change the actual letters? I have done the work in 2003 Publisher. Tag: stupid Tag: 152296

    - Publisher poster page selection I just made a poster that requires (12 sheets) 11"/8.5" paper. I messed up and I had to reprint a certain part of it. Luckily it was on the last row of tiles and I could print from the last page starting off. After reprinting I had to cancel the print to make it stop printing because I am just completely draining my ink and it's not worth reprint the whole thing. I cut it off a tile early and so I had to go and repint again cutting it off after the 8th tile. On my second reprint my printer stopped using the cyan pigmant and was just magenta and yellows for the 8th and 9th tiles...the ones I needed. I checked the help and trouble shooting and it went into an elaborate scheme to make a freaking page selection. It isn't even a page selection it is recreating what part of the poster I want to print as the whole poster using the horizontal and vertical rulers tool. This is absolutely rediculous since i would have to measure in exactness where to drag the ruler guide to select what part I would like to reprint. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

    - Copy and Paste Problem Using Publisher 2003. I am trying to copy and paste an Adobe page into a newsletter I am putting together. When I use either the "paste or Special paste" functions the file transfers to the designated page, however, when I try to save the newsletter file I get a blank balloon from the assistant. The only thing that shows in the balloon is an "OK", clicking on the box terminates the program and the just inserted page is not saved. Any ideas on how to work this problem, I really need that Adobe page, tried converting it to a word file, however the formatting and type faces are lost. Thank you. Mike Tag: stupid Tag: 152252

    - Publisher needs to allow easier doublesided printing When printing a catalogue on Publisher, it is really hard to work out which page is going to print on which side etc. If you try and print two sides at a time it comes out wrong. is there anyway this can be changed? it would be great if on the new Publisher this could be a feature, otherwise it'll be easier to create it as all A4 pages and then print 2 pages per sheet, but that's silly isn't it? ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

    - Publisher won't print graytones I just switched to Publisher 2003 and I've lost the ability to print gray tones - like when I want to change type from black to a lighter shade of gray. It's not the printer - I can print gray letters or object fine in Word. It's just in Publisher. Something needs to be set in Publisher to tell the printer to go lighter and I don't know where that setting would be. Any idea? Thanks. Tag: stupid Tag: 152158

    - Publisher 2003 will only view and print Am running Publisher 2003 on Windows XP SP2. Also Works Suite 2005, Norton Internet Security 2005 and Norton Antivirus, Spybot and Ad-Aware SE personal, all updated regularly and run with no problems indicated. No problems with Publisher until the last week in March. New, Save, Save as, etc. in pull-down menu and all icons in side toolbar are now grayed out. (Have used Publisher from 95 through to current 2003). Have tried Detect and Repair from CD, Reinstall from CD, Uninstall from control panel and reinstall all without success though after each operation I get message â??has been repaired or installed successfullyâ??. Have tried System Restore to an earlier date but this left Publisher corrupt and unable to uninstall. Used System Restore to return to current date and present condition. Have disabled antivirus and internet security but to no effect. Am reluctant to uninstall Norton as it was pre-installed on my computer and I have no disk and have 9 months subscription outstanding. Have clicked on â??activateâ?? from help menu but this just returns me to the program. I have not installed any new programs between Publisher working OK and not working. Have read similar FAQâ??s and deleted all verclsid.exe files except the pre-fetch one and also deleted update kb908531 but no help. Have also downloaded and run hp.vbs and patch kb912812 but again no good. Am at a loss what to do next, can anyone help? -- Frank Tag: stupid Tag: 152130
