Publisher converted to Word Pad
I saved my Publisher files to disk because of a system restore need. When I
reinstalled them they show up as Word Pad files. Someone sent me a Publisher
file by email and it also shows up as Word Pad. How can I convert them back
to Publisher format? Help, please! And thanks. Tag: text boxes same size Tag: 150767
mass mailing postcards
Hello,
I'v created a post card template that has one side with general information
and the other side with different peoples addresses on it. The paper stock
that I am using will let me print 4 cards per page. However, I don't need
the same person's address 4 times on a page, I would like to print out 4
different peoples addresses on the same sheet. When I do print preview, I
have 4 copies of the same address, that doesn't work, unless I want to send
the same person 4 postcards, but that wouldn't make sense. Can anyone help
me out. Much appreciated. Tag: text boxes same size Tag: 150753

Split Photos When Printing
Originally I was using Publisher 2002 with no problems. Now I am using 2003
and am unable to print photos. Any photo I try to print is split in two
horizontally, with the bottom half on top. If I try the same photo in Word
it prints fine. How can I fix this? Tag: text boxes same size Tag: 150748
Publisher 2003 should be fixed to accept previous versions data.
Pages with pictures on them that worked just fine in Office 2000 versions are
distorted when opened in Publisher 2003...is there a fix yet as I am aware
this has been reported before?

How would I set up print options for a school yearbook?
I am having a heck of time trying to print our elementary school's yearbook.
I have thirty pages and want to print it so that it staples in the middle and
reads like a regular book. Sometimes I get 8 pages printed on one sheet of
paper (4 on front and 4 on back) sometimes I get just one page on each side.

Office won't let me insert pics from file
Up until today, I've enjoyed the ease of inserting pics from files into any
office product. For some reason, today it's choosing to not be my firend.
When I go to Insert>Picture>From File it just freezes. I've sent countless
error reports to microsoft in hopes that I could figure this one out on my
own, but I've hit a brick wall. I rebooted by computer, ran office updates
and rebooted again, all to no avail. Any help would be appreciated -- I
really don't want to have to reinstall Office if at all possible.

Calendar Start Days again
There are many postings on the internet of people wanting to start Calendars
on days other than Sunday. The advice, for Publisher 2003, is invariably to
change your PCs regional settings. e.g. changing the language setting from
"English (US)" to "English (UK)" is supposed to change the start day of
Publisher Calendars from Sunday to Monday. Even Microsoft's own articles
say to do this e.g. see "Change dates on a calendar" under "Assistance,
Publisher 2003, Work Essentials with Publisher" at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HP011543011033.aspx.
This is exactly what I want to do. However, it doesn't work. Whatever
language setting I use, a newly created Calendar ALWAYS starts on a Sunday.
Even after a reboot.
O/S is XP SP2, Publisher is 2003 (11.5525.6568). Any help greatly
appreciated.

sort problems
Using Publisher 2000 and mail merge - large input excel files - sort sequence
is crucial but does not hold. Doing a 20K pice mailing and addresses print
out in basically no sequence at all - I've broken database down to 2000 names
at a time - it will print 10 in sequence, skip 20, print 10 in sequence, skip
10 then eventually goes back and randomly picks up skipped addresses. I know
the file is sorted going in. With mailings this big, this is a MAJOR problem.
Anyone know what's happening here. How to solve? Tag: text boxes same size Tag: 150697

Changing Autocorrect Language
I recently began using Office 2003, and am having trouble getting the
Autocorrect language to work consistently in Publisher for text that is
English (Canada). Note that in all other Office programs, the Autocorrect
language used for Canadian English is English (U.K.).
However, when I open a document in Publisher, the Autocorrect Options come
up in English (U.S.). Butâ?¦if I select any text that is formatted as English
(U.K.), Publisher then begins autocorrecting Canadian English using English
(U.K.).
This only applies to the Autocorrect Options, not the spell check, as there
is a separate Canadian English dictionary for spelling, and the text is
correctly defined as Canadian English
Iâ??ve tried changing regional settings on Windows â?? which seemed to control
Autocorrect in earlier versions of Publisher â?? and Iâ??ve tried altering Office
language settings in the Office Tools, but Publisher keeps switching the
Autocorrect dictionary it uses for Canadian English. Tag: text boxes same size Tag: 150679
Cannot find a specific printer
In Publisher 2003 I cannot find a specific printer to Print on the

3. The printer works on other PCs.
4. This PC, that cannot find the printer, can find it in WORD.
Any solutions?

Custom Cards-and Mail (Catalog?) Merge
I am trying to set up a template for a custom name card-3.125" x 2.125" .
Each of these cards will have different names on it (Mr. Bill Smith, Ms. Mary
Jones, etc..) and all the cards will have the same detail on them-(ie:
Company Name and Venue) . I was able to set up the card template but I am
having trouble merging the 650 names that are now in Excel format. It seems
that I end up with a sheet of 6 cards all with the same name, so that I would
have to print 650 sheets--each sheet having the same name on it. Where am I
going wrong? What I want is 6 individual names per sheet and each sheet
having the border lines on it so that each sheet can be cut into 6
cards-3.125 x 2.125 afterwards. Please advise. Thanks Tag: text boxes same size Tag: 150667

Inserting calendars into Publisher
I want to insert a monthly calendar into a church newsletter that I have
created using Publisher 2002. The calendar will be on a page by itself. The
calendar will have entries for activities throughout the month. If I can
insert the calendar with the rest of the newsletter, then I will be able to
send it directly from my computer to a high quality printer, resulting in a
better looking publication. Is there a Microsoft product that I can use to
accomplish this? If not, is there a product on the market that I can use with
Publisher to achieve this objective? Tag: text boxes same size Tag: 150654
