Re: XyWrite 4 - Customization Guide as TEXT File



GREAT IDEA & A SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM!
Thank You.
 
I tried a number of online conversion sites:
 
converted pretty well to .doc (not .rtf)
Tables are much better than in the txt file.
 
It had problems with quotes, dashes and a few things
but all in all it looks manageable.
 
Here are some screen shots
                                          PDF FILE                                                                                        CONVERTED to .doc
pdf2doc comparison - Original PDF File - 2pdf2doc comparison - by PDF2DOC-com - 2
 
Some text in the tables was reduced from 12 pt to 5 point
but in Word when I enlarged it to 500% It seemed like the data was correct.
It just needs to be changed back to 12 pt again.
 
Your idea makes things a lot easier for me.
Any problems I find with corrupted data probably can be fixed
by just copying & pasting from the pdf to the doc file in most cases.
(eliminating that dreaded proofreading)
 
A really big advantage to converting to Word doc is the viewing of the text.
It is much clearer and sharper than I saw when viewing the txt file.
Of course I never thought about it till now but
I was viewing it in Editpad not Word.
 
I just now tried the txt file in Word
The line breaks are all messed up and it is not as easy
to read as the doc file.
 
I would have never imagined that!
 
Utube video on this was great on these 2 sites:
 
 
You can edit pdf, rotate, reorder, append pdfs
BUT IS ONLY FREE UNDER 100 PAGES
 
google drive
could not convert the CUSTOMIZATION GUIDE from pdf 2 doc
 
Thanks a million for your help
and so quickly too.
 
All my best,
Rick

To: What happens if you export it as an RTF, Word or HTML file?  One of those might get you past the specific problem(s) you’re encountering.

Hi
 
I am hoping to find a copy of the
XyWrite 4 - Customization Guide as a TEXT File.
 
I have the pdf version and have converted it to a text file with a number of programs.
 
All the text files have problems converting the Default & Function Call lists sections
of the Customization Guide.
