and the same for a negative crop (extension of the image) to create a border around an image

yep cross references are badly needed by me also

I also had problems with ligatures being wrongly translated from pdf to AP. The original text I exported to pdf from the mellel word processor app. There all looked ok. Importing in AP went wrong. I t emporarily solved it to export from mellel with all ligatures disabled. Import of that pdf in AP had no problems. Maybe this is an option for you.

oops ;)

Pages studio? This thread is for Publisher beta

problem solved. The word processor was set up to use simple ligatures, carried that over to the PDF, etc. Thanks for pointing in the right direction William

In unicode in AP the fi combination is G+0151

nope, no windows here

Hi William, Polish? No :) . The book was written in Italian in the Mellel word processor on a Mac. Font Cambria. From there I exported as a Pdf. In Mellel and the PDF the letter combination is as it should be f + i. When I open the PDF in AP I get the stroked L and an i with a tracking of -237 0/00 (so they are overlapping in AP. When I activate unicode I get EG+0151 in stead of the stroked L. Seems to me the translation goes wrong from pdf to AP.

think the thing is called a glyph?

When I open a pdf all goes pretty well except that words that start with a "fi" combination the F gets changed in a Ł (L-stroke)Ł. I cannot use search nd replace becaus in the search function I cannot enter that character. Someone has an idea how to solve this? T.i.a. Hans

just tried, when snapping to baseline grid is off I can do things without crashing. As soon as snapping is turned on the crash is there.

I indeed was using baseline grids.

added logs

cleaned up (deinstall completely) AP from my Mac Pro and reinstalled. Created new document, created base grid and tried to place a guide. Clicking on the ruler crashed Ap instantly.

same problem here: imediate crash of .221 when putting the cursor in the text area, or try to create a guide. And therefor not able to beta test anything in this version.

same here (and I did a reset). I can open 221create a new doc or open an existing one, but as soon as I put the cursor in the document area or try to create a new guide the program crashes. Unusable at the moment. Please advise Hans

work without any problems. Must say that extracting seemed to take quite some time.

@Chris B. The text is there, but the link on the menu bar isn't working/implemented yet

Opened help - Get started - create new document: no text is shown. Used Open documents, link see also create new documents: text of create new document is shown.

document not available anymore. No more crashes in new documents

same here (on 133) Closed a document, shut down mac, restarted mac, opened Publisher and got the "recover file" message

also have a problem with f and i next to each other. It is ok in pdf after import it shows a large I with a horizontal bar above it (it cannot be copy pasted into here) with a correct i next not it. Also in Cambria font

same here with cambria regular, bold, and italic

put them in a master page?
