  1. In fact I found the solution in setting the the proper ICC profile in the Windows Color Management screen for both my monitors to sRGB IEC61966-2.1. The only thing I can figure is that an update reverted the settings back to a wrong default. Thanks for everyone's input. I have now documented the solution so that if it ever happens again I'll know what to do. The solution is to Right Click the desktop and choose Display Settings. Type Color Management in the search box and it brings up this window (see attachment). Then Make sure the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 profile is set as the default (if you don't see it you can add it and then set it as the default).
  2. Consider me stumped. I have been working on a number signs for a customer that I created with white backgrounds on and I opened the file tonight to add some additional signs that they requested. And originally I know that the whites were white but then I noticed that the white on all my signs were not actually white any more but the creme color you see in the screen shot (A below) As you can see from C below I have the house shape selected and fill is selected in the color panel (B below)and everything is set to 0 in CMYK and I still have a creme color. Every thing that should be white in my document is this creme color. I have 100% opacity set. I have the background set to gray in screen shot but I can go to preferences and set it to actual white. You can even see image in the layers panel is white and not creme color. So what else can I check to get my whites in my art boards back to white. Thanks in advance for your incite and help. Since writing the initial paragraph I opened a new document which has the same problem. I also shutdown Designer and restarted and the problem continues to persist. So does anyone have an idea how I can solve this. Thanks in advance for your input.

  4. I understand the Add & Subtract function and it works as it should in Photo but not in the Photo persona in Publisher. Thanks for the thought though.
  5. I have a head scratcher that maybe someone can help me with. I have been using Publisher ever since it came out. I have the latest verson install 1.92.1035 and have been using the photo persona to cutout that backgrounds on images that I use in a newsletter that I publish. I went to try to cut our backgrounds on a few images that I imported today into Publisher by selecting the Photo (same version of Photo) persona where you have access to the selection brush tool and I tried to select the image and it selects nothing. I tried the selection brush on another image with the same result, no selection, no marching ants at all. So I decided to open Photo and try removing the backgrounds in Photo. I copied the images and pasted them into Photo, selected the selection brush and it works flawlessly just like it should. After making the selection, I selected a mask, rasterized and trimmed the image and copy and pasted it back into Publisher with no background. All of this I could do before inside of Publisher but now can't for some reason. Am I missing something or is there a bug. Thanks in advance for your thoughts and help.
  6. I apologize if this in not the place for ask for a feature, but I couldn't see any where else to request it. I have used PagePlus since version 2 and am really missing a visual indication in Publisher like in PagePlus that things are grouped. I know that you can look in the layers panel but I want to see it on the page. Thanks for listening.
  7. I been using PagePlus since version 2 but am trying to learn by setting up our next newsletter in Publisher. I just ran into something though that is curious. In PP I could get text blocks to fit a specific space either by reducing the leading or font size slightly. If you clicked the up or down arrows or scrolled the mouse wheel while hovering over the font size it would either increase or decrease by .1 of the font size. For instance, one-click down from 8 pt would give you 7.9 pts. Same thing on the leading. If i try to do the same thing in Publisher either by clicking the arrows or hovering over the font size it increases or decreases by a full point size which isn't very helpful nudging things to fit. BTW if the point size is set to 8 pt you can key in 7.9 and it will work but it's certainly not as easy to do as clicking the arrows or scrolling the mouse wheel. I don't' see any way to change a setting in preferences. Any incite would be appreciated. Also I am really missing the external text editor that you could access in PP with CTRL+E Thanks in advance for any thoughts or workarounds.
