I am not sure why you ar having your problem, but when I have made pdfs I
would use a post script print driver and print to file. Then using distiller
I would make a pdf of the .ps file. I have acrobat 3 on my mac and this
seems to work perfectly.

I have Acrobat 4 on my pc and I have been able to print to file on a mac and
copy it over to my pc to make a pdf with 4 and never had a problem.

Not per se. You need to use something besides the Finder. An AppleScript
would probably suffice; something that works with contextual menus might be
the best. You would select a file, Control-Click it, and then pick the
option from the popup menu; it might be called "Just Move," for instance.
The script would then need to let you navigate to the folder you want to
move the file to. The great shareware application, FinderPop, already has
such an action built in along with dozens of others. Try finding it on
<> to get the latest version.

I think this info, saved from an old message, is what you are looking for:

If you replace the "IE 5 Control Library" file in the "Active X Controls"
folder inside the "Extensions" folder inside the System folder with a
SimpleText document of the same name, it will never use IE to render complex
HTML messages inline. Instead, it will just use the built in rendering,
which can't do thinks like images, tables or remote content. There are no
security issues with the built in rendering.

Reading egroup messages

Fred J. Keene
 

How can I separate the egroup digest into separate messages? And.. NO, I do not want to receive individual messages as they just clutter up a mailbox.

With other digests I use the utility Burst to extract the individual messages, but I have not been able to use it successfully with the new egroup digest.

The value to me in having separate messages is that I can select the ones that I want to save, and then transfer them to another mailbox.

Window Shade

 

A week or two ago, someone wrote to the list mourning the fact that since OS 9, we had lost the ability to roll up a window by double-clicking on its title bar. Someone else replied that you can still use the right-hand button on the title bar to collapse the window. I was in a rush at the time, but this has bothered me, so now I am writing to correct this person's impression. The ability to do WindowShade with a double-click is not lost, but you have to go set it. Go to your Appearance control panel and choose the Options tab. There, you can set it to "Double Click title bar to collapse windows."

Digital Cameras

Paul M. Hellings
 

A few weeks back I asked the IOMUG list for their collective opinion on
Digital cameras. After much research, I decided to buy a Kodak DC 290. It
features a 16mb card a 3X optical zoom and 2 megapixel resolution. I paid
$529 for it complete with rechargeable batteries, charger and AC adapter.

After using it for a week or so, I just wanted to tell the group that it
takes INCREDIBLE photos and the included software is excellent. Connected
via USB cable, the camera "mounts" just like a hard drive. Photos can be
dragged to your HD easily and quickly. It comes bundled with Photodeluxe 2.0
and Pagemill 3.0

I've been printing the output with an Epson 880 printer which has been very
rewarding in terms of quality and speed. the printer is almost silent!

To round out my Christmas purchases, I bought an additional 128mb of RAM for
my bronze Powerbook....for $89 from MacZone.

To anyone considering Digital, this camera is a very good choice in my
opinion.

The 'Reply-To' for individual messages should be set to

This is just the way some lists (many on Egroups) choose to do it. I use
Mailing List Manager in Entourage to override the list setting and reply to
the list by default. I also, with this list, am receiving the digest, and
use two AppleScripts (which I have for Outlook Express and Entourage) that
will reply, respectively, "In Digest to List" or "In Digest to Author", when
a message within the digest is selected.

Furthermore, I use another script to strip out the "[listname]" prefix used
in the subject field by many lists, and to eliminate the Egroups ads at the
bottom.

Scripts are great! (My scripts can be found at the URL below.)

Re: ScanWizard 5

 

My ScanWizard program, part of my MicroTek scanner purchase, refuses to find AOL when I attempt to designate a e-mail carrier for my photo downloads. I open the appropriate AOL folder and see all the other parts of the AOL program, but not the application symbol.

If you are familiar with ScanWizard v5, and have any clue as to how to make this work, I'd appreciate your assistance.

Re: Batch Convert to picture clipping?

Allen Watson
 

Does anyone know of an app that can batch convert images (primarily .jpg,
.gif, and .bmp) into picture clippings? I really need this to save myself a
LOT of manual converting.
Graphic Converter is AppleScriptable. You should be able to create a droplet
that will do it for you. The following is from Graphic Converter's
dictionary:

save : Save an object
save reference -- the object to save
[in alias] -- the file in which to save the object
as
PICT/MacPaint/TIFF/GIF/IFF/PCX/IMG/StartupScreen/BMP/TGA/JPEG/Photoshop/HPGL
/EPSF/QuickTime/SUN/PICS/Resource/PBM/SGI/TRS80/ppat/Softimage/PNG/Colortabl
e/RAW/PSION/WMF/XWD/XBM/XPM/Clipping/ASCII/STAD/Windowsicon/RTF/VPB/PSION5/X
Face/PDB/ISS/KISS/WBMP/PGC/JIF -- the file type of the document in which to
save the data
[makeCopy boolean] -- save a copy of the document without effecting
the original
Result : integer -- Result code of saving the object

dragging items across hard drives

Mason Radkoff
 

Hi everyone.

This may be a bit clumsy to describe.

Some of my Macs have more than one internal hard drive. When dragging items from one drive to another the item is of course, copied rather than simply moved from point A to point B. This unwanted copying occurs even when moving items from a non-startup drive to the desktop. Duplicating and deleting items appearing has become tedious.

Is there a modifier key (or keys) that would prevent the copying, and allow a mere moving?

Acrobat fails to see TIFFs

 

Recently I've encountered a problem with Acrobat Distiller, versions 3 and 4.
When I print from QuarkXPress 4.1 to PDF I very frequently end up with PDF
files which do not include the TIFFs which were part of the XPress document.

Note that I say "frequently;" often the PDF file is perfect.

Also, if I save the XPress file as an EPS (from the file menu in XPress) I
create an EPS that *can* be distilled with all elements complete.

The expression "Duhhhh" springs instantly to my lips.

I appeal to the Mavenhood of the List.

Thank you.

Graphic Converter is great. It even makes web pages with thumbnail
links to larger images. You have complete control over sizes, etc.
Photoshop also has a similar feature. There are other apps that also
do this.

I'd love to find one that would convert my photos to a quicktime
movie slide show. This would make a simple way of sharing photos that
can be reviewed quickly, sent as attachments, archived, etc.

This setting results in helping each user think twice about sending a
message to the group. It helps those who do not think about it, or do
not know, to not send private or personal messages to the group. List
discussions are not prohibited at all. This helps keep
unnecessary postings out of the list. Please post responsibly.

Try using the web interface where you can reply to a posting and then
click a pop-up list to choose the group address. You can also change
