Custom date formatting for fields
amcd replied to Ash's topic in [ARCHIVE] 2.3, 2.2 & 2.1 Features and Improvements
Apart from this time/date issue. I am also experience quite a lot of instability with latest Publisher 2.3.1 app on Sonoma 14.2.1. I can only clear various issues by restarting. Publisher. This is costing me a lot of time. Please, where can I can I download a previous .dmg of Publisher 2 for the time beings since the problems have only hit me with Publisher 2.3.1 Many thanks amcd -

Yes I am using macOS Sonoma. I am not convinced this is an Apple issue. I no longer have Ventura on my Mac. I will try on Monterey. -

The Time/Date fields in latest version of Publisher 2.3.1 - DEFAULTS to UK GMT. Unfortunately with your new standard, I have lost my ability to easily format date/time fields that I had been using for years. I am in Brisbane, Australia which is Australian Eastern Stand Time (AEST) i.e. UTC/GMT +10 year round . Sydney is currently Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT=AEST+1) i.e. UTC/GMT +11 during summer. I tried using Ash's table (26 June 2023) for some hours with no luck. Please can you direct me to a tutorial or easy instructions that shows me how to edit the time/date fields. I would be very grateful if you would send me specific examples of Field Formatting for Brisbane and Sydney. Many thanks amcd -
Hi Walt... I am attaching a copy of the original 2 Page PDF / Barcode form with some markups (another.pdf) ... Please try with Designer, Publisher and Photo as I get mixed results... a bit hard to describe in words.. Your input would be much appreciated.. One of the strengths of Publisher etc is to generate truly flattened / rasterized PDFs. Various non-Adobe PDF apps make a mess of fully Flattening / Rasterizing PDFs into a 100% non-editable form. Acrobat Pro for Mac is good but extremely expensive. Ghostscript PDF Interpreter seems to be only a Windows app? Per the previous advice, I tried generating PS files (using >Print>PDF>Save as Postscript). This works and PS file can be placed no-problem. But PS files need to be generated for each seperate page in a 2 or more page PDF document. Thanks again for the help... amcd OpenNetwealthForm.pdf

Thanks for introducing the PDF passthrough concept to me... When I use "File>Open” for the PDF (rather than "Place") the Barcode is always interpreted as text in both Designer and Publisher. Is there a way to change settings to enforce PDF Passthrough when opening a PDF? PLACING THE PDF... PUBLISHER.... I have tried placing the PDF in Publisher into a new document... Using "File>Place" ...the PDF opens and the "Passthrough" Toolbar option works OK.. the Barcode appears just fine. I can toggle the Toolbar option between "Passthrough" (Barcode appears) and "Interpret" (Text appears).. DESIGNER.... I have tried placing the PDF in Designer into a new document... Using "File>Place" ...the PDF opens but the "Passthrough/Interpret" Toolbar options DO NOT work... text appears... If I toggle between "Passthrough" and "Interpret" on the Designer, there is no change and only Text appears. Please advise soonest... many thanks... amcd

I have tried importing some PDF documents that contain a Barcode into both Designer and Publisher. Both apps load the PDFs but make a mess of the Barcodes. In fact the PDF Barcodes are rendered automatically into the Barcode's text by both Designer and Publisher. How can I persuade Designer and Publisher to load the actual Barcodes without auto conversation. Please see attached images from Publisher. Many thanks Allan

To answer your questions.....In the exported PDF documents the Table of Contents Page numbers do not provide selectable, clickable links to page numbers. I am not sure what you mean by "More... dialog" ? Please clarify, thanks.. My TOC Panel definitely has "Include as PDF bookmarks" selected.... see screenshot... I was exporting using PDF (for Press) and PDF (for Print)... in both cases PDF Bookmarks do not appear in PDF documents. In both cases web hyperlinks work just fine. in version 1.8.x ...PDF (for Press) and PDF (for Print) generated "selectable" PDF Bookmarks and hyperlinks. As your reply sort of indicated that the export format is now relevant, I tried export via PDF (for export), PDF (digital - high quality) and PDF (digital - small) and the selectable PDF Bookmarks appeared in PDF documents. thanks @amcd
