Cigarette Storage Boxes Summary of common disadvantages of PageMaker operation
If you are a regular user of pagemaker, you must have encountered this situation: in the same text, there is "address: Telephone: zip code:" and so on, requiring the first word and colon to be aligned. The same size, the same font, the same amount of text will be inconsistent! Play a space, not enough, play two Spaces, and more, no way, had to adjust the method of kerning to adjust. It can be handled for the time being, but once the content is rotated, the old problem occurs again.
It is always done by foreigners, and it is not so easy to use when it is used to arrange Chinese characters, which is compared to Weiss and Feiteng, which do much better. (Usually use Ctrl+Shift+M or TAB to do it, if you can't do it, split it into multiple text blocks and align it manually)
The best feature of Pagemaker is not production, but its powerful typesetting and composition capabilities. For example, it is very convenient to use it to row more than 100 pages of books and periodicals, and place text blocks at will, which is what you see. How to do it: Go to the main page (that is, the two pages with R and L on the far left of the scroll bar below), type Ctrl+Shift+3 where you need to add page numbers, and then look inside the body. How's that?? Each page code is automatically generated!
Before you get too excited, once you ask for a collage output (that is, two or four pages together into one page), why does the page number not move? This is over! Add it slowly and manually, page by page. (My experience is: it is best to manually add page numbers when making it, so that you don't have to be afraid when making it. Wait a minute, what if the customer asks to add pages or delete pages? Wouldn't the page numbers on each page be...
None Align the middle of the page, upper right side of the page, or lower right side of the page
Place an image, about one-third the size of the page, in the exact middle of the page. What if I use coreldraw, hey hey, Ctrl+A, and it's done in 1 second, but now it's in pagemaker? Do the honest math: Subtract the image size from the center size, then divide by 2, and then pull a guide line out, finally aligned. Less content is fine, but more pictures? Big head! Generally, draw a text block, the length is flush with the center of the text block, place the image in the text block, and then select center. Although the problem is solved, it always feels twisted and not so smooth)
Guides cannot give coordinates parameters manually
Sometimes you need to draw a guide line at a coordinate point, very simple, with a mouse pull, the guide line will come out, put it in the desired position is not on the line, oops, a little over, a little back, more, further forward, and again... I finally got the alignment. However, it is important to know that not every mouse is so good, in case you encounter a mouse that is not very sensitive, I don't know what adobe was thinking when developing this software. Think of it, think of this function is not important and do not do, or simply did not think that not every user is using Logitech brand mouse...)
It's hard to put something in the table software into a pagemaker page. It's always a table. You can simply draw it with a wire frame and move the text manually. What about complicated forms? That's okay. When you install pagemaker, you load the adboe Table on your machine with pageamker and that comes in handy. Use it to draw, not so smooth, but still can be quite convenient.
All right, it's done. How do you put it in pagemaker pages? The problem: Adobe Tables, which come with pagemaker in the same package, can't be used to draw tables directly into pageamker! Even when the output film is put in, it cannot pass normally! It's unbelievable. I had no choice but to convert it to EPS format and put it in pagemaker again. Has the text in the form changed? Let's do it again... Are you tired?
The content of the finished page cannot be scaled down or enlarged
Use coreldraw or Illustrator to make a thing, picture and text mix, a page in the plate and text are more, the text is mostly picture description or annotation. You can do the same thing with pagemaker, and because the files are small, the operation is a little faster than the above two programs. In case you need to scale all of your layout down to 90% of its original size, group it in coreldraw or illustrator, then select the scale, and you're done! In pageamker, also select the group, then select the ratio... Wait a minute, the picture class is all right, why the text will not shrink, but the text box is reduced, and the text position is messed up... No way, the content will dissolve the group, one by one selected text block, one by one slowly tune it!
