And I'll add it would have been nice if the "all spreads | all pages" option was added to the preset too since having by default "all spread" need us to modify this option each time we export some PDF.

At first it wasn't in the preset, and since Preset for press ready always need bleed, it was asked to be moved in the options that can be saved. In the end there are 2 places for this option…

Because his document doesn't have bleed (it's set to 0*). * In the document setup, where it can be modified if it wasn't set when creating the new document.

Yes, it's just a temporary solution while hoping the Team log it as a bug so this type of vector patterns are correctly opened and manageable, and later include in the apps Fill tool.

Ok, keep on reading novels and assuming instead of learning, but since this won't go nowhere I'll stop here unless the conversation go back to the main subject.

Yes, I tend tohear some high sounds… A baby's cry made my ears ache for long when nobody around seems to be annoyed, but I've got difficulties hearing the deep voices of some friends if there's a lot of sound around like in a busy restaurant. I was wondering if there were some tests to check this, or if speakers were able to reproduce high sounds. Now I've part of the answer The melody is nice, even if it seems for me made partly swiping fingers around a glass! And if you've got other videos, please post them, it's interesting to watch and kind of soothing looking you drawing perfect lines so easily.

Oh damn, read a little bit more about history, and you'll understand what I'm talking about from the start: culture, and why the books we make today use basic rules or layout set long ago because their uses and the improvements made like writing every time from left to right, space between words, ponctuation, margins, etc. constitude a cultural trait. And this culture means that you can show UK and US books, French and Canadian books, Spanish and Mexican books, unless we begin to read them it'll be impossible to distinguish where they come from. And if we're at a distance where we can't read them, we'll see all of them are similar. Now, if I see a book using Fraktur or Basque fonts, I'll be able to pinpoint a more specific culture inside our larger werterner one. And main culures followed the religious books spread. That's a fact, it doesn't mean everyone is of those religions in the area they spread, but mainly at some point.

If you want the PDF/X-3:2003 preset to include bleed by default, you'll have to modify the preset and save it with another name (like appending "bleed") since it's impossible to modify default presets when they lack options like bleed checked. Don't forget to check other needed options.

Yes, but real groups or folders for this. And alphabetical order is really usefull too, since for documents without different sections, and less styles that don't need grouping it's easier to search "header 1", "body" or "body_drop_cap" in an alphabetical list since there isn't many variants of them for each section.

It's not easy to get back those pattern. I was able to do it playing with the XML in Inkscpae, but there should be an eaisier way. For now, perhaps you can correct the PDF inserting those patterns in the clipping curves: dessin04.pdf dessin04.afpub

I've got the same use as you. I use maximum 3 family fonts by document, so I'll have by default in an APub document Base_text and Base_header. I choose 2 fonts for each one, and begin adding styles base on them. If I need more "base", I had them. When creating text styles, the hierarchical view is very usefull, but once done, it would be more usefull to have real groups to group them depending of the part of the document they are related too, since the one that'll use them doesn't need to know about which style is parent of another one, but more which styles are used in differents parts of the document. "Grouping" can be done using prefixes and diplaying them alphabetically, but it would be like going back to prehistory when groups didn't exists in such apps, and when you need to modify prefixes on many styles, it's a pain.

In this case using "no break" on this word can be a solution too in APub (I suppose we usually insert the optional hyphen since it's easier than selecting the word and checking this option in the character panel… and if later you insert text after this word, it won't have the "no break" propriety).

What do you think Europe is made of? It's the same, long ago tribes were united, and their culture absorbed or melted wth the one or the conqueror or unificator, and it keep on today with new influx of people. And from what we know of prehistory, it was already this way. I'm not talking about local culture (but we get it too here, with different local languages, cultural habits, etc. in a same country, and the same at bigger level in all those countries). What I mean is, since we were talking about books, that writing and producing books is culturally bound to the extension of the main religion it followed. For us, westerners, it's based on the Bible.

I've noted them and it would be usefull to be able to export/import the 2 of them instead of needing to open an older version of the app and of those, to set them identical in the new one. Presets usually work best if your apps are properly set and you won't have bad surprises (like working with the wrong profiles and exporting PDF with some other ones, ending up with colour change, or DPI and PPP settings, etc.).

The US culture is mainly base on European one, so for me it's the same roots and history of books, parchements, etc. since the settlers didn't came empty-handed or erased all they know before. It's a shame that most conquerors or emperors or whatever in power destroyed other or older cultures and knowledge.

And another point about preset for press ready PDF: it's important to be able to import/export them since it's usually the makers or the printers that create them and give you the ones you need. It can be coupled with settings for managing colour profiles, so each computer will behave and produce the same work, same type of images, PDF, etc. It's important to be able to save, import and export all of those, and not having to manually create or set each app to those settings, or modify each computer settings when you need to modify a parameter. [edit]It would be usefull on one computer with the 3 apps and bêta version, and more for team using the apps.[/edit]

And you don't need 500 presets for different size of paper, but few presets for different quality of paper/colour. Some people always work with the same preset for press ready, and the printer adjust depending of the paper used. That's when you've got/get more technical like maker service people working with you that they'll teach you about different presets for different papers, it can be teach by your printer too.

Perhaps for the Export persona, and I didin't create more than 10 of those counting PDF, PNG, JPEG and SVG, but for PDF presets, you have max 15 if you want to be versatile. part for PDF for clients, part for PDF for press ready, part for web. That's why you keep only the most important of them and do few modifications — usually the same ones in a click when needed for a special export—, it's simpler than managing 500 presets and only using few of them each day and cluttering your list with some you'll take more time to find when needed than clicking an option.

No, because there's an hyphen and it can break after: porte- manteau. (but to avoid confusion we'd rather not have hypen in other parts of a compound word than the one(s) already here, like in por- te-manteau).

Depending of what I'm working on, I usually do it manually in articles, and sometimes too in long texts, since in long text (books), I usually check page by page that there's not the same word/hyphenation, etc. occuring twice or more than twice at the begining/end of a line and I can check bad hyphenation too this way. Of course, it depends of the work: if I've got only few short chapters at a time and time, I'll do it manually, for longer books no. With compound words with capitals in French, like towns or people's names, it can be tricky if you don't want them hyphenated, since adding an article in some will add a lower case to the word: "d’Abergement-Sainte-Colombe". It seems to work correctly in the new version, last time I tested 2 hyphens appeared (it keeps on if you insert it at the wrong place—before—, but it's normal). Automating this with scripts can be usefull, but when having small width columns or left align text, it can be tricky, and you need to allow hyphenation sometimes, again, checking manually…

I worked as an independent and in different companies, and I can assure you, there are not 500 ways to export PDF or so many different ways to do some tasks that you won't understand what is doing some coworkers or independents. We can find new way to do some tasks in this forum, but the main and most important is that we can understand each other because we usually have the same way(s) to adress issues, even if we came from cultural and different background, and there are no 500 ways to use presets or export PDF (but we can have 500 different presets).

I'll keep my opinion about if rules can be vsisible or not, and how people can see them or not. But a lot of work use them, perhaps without really knowing it, because it's ingrain in what we do. There can be years or century for some usages, simply because that's the best way to do things and no one pay attention because it looks "normal". Books of old times are really similar to the one we've got today, Times font is a modern version of the Caroline calligraphy Charlemagne ordered hundred years ago to unify and make easily lisible the texts —with copies of the original texts instead of the too modified ones years of bad copies produced. Ponpeiians used to write adds and slogans on walls the same way we keep on today (but with different technologies). We keep on using wheels… There's lot of conventions and rules we're not aware until we studies some matters, and it's why we can study the past without being completely lost. What evolve the most is technology and materials and we apply them to old concepts.

Don't forget it can be in the paragraph style decoration settings, and you won't have to move your lines each time you modify your text, and can in a bulk modify this line on all the titles when modifying the decoration of your paragraph style.

Please, keep on explaining to me how to do my work and how I don't know what I'm doing for so many years, I love it! Again, re-read my posts, I explained twice for you to understand. Oh! people can work on more than a document at a time? How new… That's when memories and good apps are here to help you with… for example preset with "modified" in the name. A common folder with presets already made and save would be usefull, or the option to export/import presets, since it's a pain to recreate them each time a new version need us to recreate them, and it would be usefull to export/import presets in the Export persona too. Perhaps you need to work in our area to better understand why we ask for some changes in what can be details but mean a lot in a day to day basis of repeated tasks that can be improve with small things.

I'll repead myself again: but it's usually small modification about 1 option you usually do, so it's easy to check, or if it's more important modifications, you save it as a new preset.
