Express 2.5 Beta Feedback Thread
Footnotes coming over from Word
I have an outline that I wrote in Word and it has many footnotes. I have tried to open in NWX 2.5 rc2 and some of the footnotes appear in the text and a blank note at the bottom. I then tried opening the doc in NeoOffice and saving it as a .rtf doc. Well the note now at least appear at the bottom of the page, but now if I add a new note it does not match the indending etc of the exisiting notes even though when I put the curser in the notes and click on the tabs the dialog box gives the same settings for both notes!
I really like NWX but I have tons of outlines for students in Word and if they cannot be easily edited in NWX I am really out of luck in using NWX.

Yeah, this makes using Nisus as my main processor much harder because I simply do not have the time to reedit every footnote in an outline when I want to reuse 95 percent of it.midwinter wrote:Ack. On a lark, I opened up an old Word document of mine. Footnotes are constantly renumbered on each page (all beginning with 1), there's an indent on every block quotation, and if I have more than one footnote on a page, all notes after the first are indented (like a weird hanging indent).

Using fc1, I opened up a Word file that had a hyperlink in it, and I wanted to keep the text of it, but make it into a regular piece of text -- in other words, delete the hyperlink part of it (if this makes sense). Is this possible?

Re: Express 2.5 Beta Feedback Thread -- AppleScript problem
AppleScript problem:
in Express 2.5 fc2 the following line:
save window 1 as "HTML" in thefile
Will properly save the document in html format but will always result in an error "Apple Event timed out" and the script stops.
System is 10.4.2

No, but we never were able to write WordPerfect documents. It was a mistake for the option to appear at all. But don't worry, we will still be able to read WordPerfect documents.cchapin wrote:Uh oh. Why do the fc3 release notes say, "Removed WordPerfect from list of Save formats?" Are you dropping WordPerfect compatibility?
