PagePlus SE Question

eyebeams · Sep 26, 2005

Is it possible to import a long Word or .rtf file into PagePlus so that it appears in multiple pages? Right now I only seem to be able to dump the whole file in a single frame on a single page, then go through the tedious process of linking each frame manually so that the text will spread out into the new page.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

When you import the file, there should be an option to auto-flow the contents. This will add the frames & pages necessary to display all the contents of the text file. However, as you work through your layout, you'll doubtlessly push the end of the text back into additional pages. Those I believe you'll have to add manually, drop in the frames, and link to the previous frames.

Thanks for your advice. I've tracked down the problem: PagePlus SE is crippleware.

Whereas I could probably figure this one out if I really tried, it's just more fun to ask... Crippleware?!

Some functions intentionally disabled unless you buy the full version of the software.

I have to say that I got and reviewed PP 10, and use it for all my work now.

Hey John,
Does PP10 have a color picker that can sample from an imported graphic yet (rather than just off the included chart of colors)? It's a feature I'd dearly love to have (which my current version doesn't) and I might just upgrade for that alone, if they've finally included it.

Ask and I shall answer!

The 8-Ball says:

"Aye! A color sampling tool IS built in. You can sample from images and vector sections, and it works fairly well."

Glad I could help. It really seems to be a worthwhile product. I use it, GIMP, DrawPlus 6, And Fractial Mapper 7 for my work in most cases.
