Cigarette Storage Boxes PageMaker making tips and common troubleshooting

1.PageMaker automatically hops pages continuously

In PageMaker, press Shift-Option and select the "Skip page" function to automatically skip pages continuously. PageMaker is a very common typesetting software, so some books or articles will use PageMaker to typesetting, and when the manuscript is finished, the designer will often look at each page, jump to each page, and just press the page number image in the bottom left corner. Or select "Go to Page" under the "Layout" list. However, with a file of dozens of pages, it is very time-consuming to press mouse page by page, or to skip pages with a list, so PageMaker has an automatic page skipping function, just press Shift-Option and select "Go to page" under the "Layout" list. The file case can automatically skip the page continuously, until you press any key of the keyboard will stop the skip page pre-view, very convenient and simple.

2.PageMaker quickly connects text blocks

copy and paste together separate blocks of text in Pagemaker When you use Pagemaker to typeset, sometimes you need to recombine multiple separate blocks of text into a single block. If there is a connection between the block and the block itself, just pull the curtain down and it will be OK. But if they are independent and have no connection relationship, then only copy or cut segment by segment, and then paste. Of course that's one thing to do, but what if? If multiple paragraphs of text need to be joined, this method can be too cumbersome and time-consuming. It is possible to select more than one block at a time and join them together at once. First of all, use the pointer tool to select the text blocks to be joined. Of course, it is best to arrange the order first, press copy or cut, and then open a new text block, press paste, and the scattered text blocks will be joined together.

3. Output low precision map

If you put a graph in PageMaker, it asks you to include the graph or not include the graph. In the case of the image is a split color EPS map, it is only inserted in the file header, its interpretation is very low, and its megabytes are less than the PageMaker threshold, PageMaker automatic package includes this file header, no longer linked to the rest of the DCS split color file, then the output will be a low precision map. Similarly, if a graph is included in a PageMaker file that is modified in other software, PageMaker does not relink, and the old graph is still unmodified.

4. PageMaker takes a long time to rewrite the screen when changing pages or making important changes.

Glitch: PageMaker requires more screen redrawing time than word processors because it precisely calculates where to place each element on the page.

Solution: * Don't use a color base. Select the black and white option in the monitor panel. * When doing typesetting, use the Edit menu's presetting command to make Greek text large. PageMaker displays Greek text much faster, and you can always change the font size back to its actual size when you want to see the text format. * Display one page at a time on the screen. If the layout is a folio, do not display two pages (uncheck FACING PAGE in the PAGE SETUP dialog). It takes more time to write 2 pages than 1 page. * Under the PAGE menu, change the page that appears smaller than the actual page.

5. You want to show the entire clipboard around the file, but can't find it by selecting 25% from the PAGE menu

Fault: Maybe you temporarily store some text, lines, boxes or graphics on the clipboard, but you can't see all the clipboard at the same time, and pulling the screen takes a long time.

Solution: * Select the "FIT IN WINDOW" command from the PAGE menu and press the "SHIFT" key. This selects the "Full Window Display" zoom standard to show the entire clipboard around the file.

6. Don't want to change page Settings defaults, input criteria, lines, or fill patterns every time you open a new file

Bug: PageMaker has default Settings for every new file format.

Workaround: * Create a set of custom format values, even store default text, graphics, or home pages, create a document, save it as a boilerplate * To change the existing default Settings when opening any new file, you should select the menu command to the desired Settings without opening the file, then the default Settings for all new files will change.

7. Unwilling to open multi-level nested dialog boxes with two or three consecutive clicks

Bug: Many PageMaker commands produce dialogs that contain dialogs

Workaround: Click OK or CANCEL in the current dialog and hold down "OPTION". PageMaker automatically closes all dialogs and returns to the layout.

Failure: After clicking the Place text command, you cannot reply from the EDIT menu.

Workaround: Instead of clicking to place text in a file, click the pointer tool in the toolbox. This cancels the placement operation.
