Can I use InDesign Ver 3.0 and the PM plug in pack with Vista?

I am a long time Pagemaker user and am still using PM6.5   I needed a new computer and of course, it is the Vista OS.  I have an original version of InDesign CS (Ver 3.0) with the Pagemaker plug in pack.  I never learned to use it cause I was so used to 6.5.  Anyway, I installed the InDesign on my new Vista computer but it won't install the PageMaker plug in pack.  Says that the OS doesn't support the installation.  Can anybody tell me if there is a fix for this or how I can get this to work.  InDesign seems to hard and I have thousands of old PM6.5 files I need to use.  Thanks!

OK well im using vista 64 bit ...and everything the so called community experts  say  means i should not be able to install this  Adobe indesigne CS Page Maker edition....and its Page maker Plug-In pack
But I did  with little complication.
..... installed the Adobe indesigne CS
.....it says you must install the Page maker Plug-In pack
.....so i started the  plugin cd said this  operating system is not supported
"work around below"
so i did explore cd and went into the Adobe Page maker Plug-In pack Directory on the CD
and i right  Click Setup
Select properties
now select second tab at tob COMPATIBILITY
check run this program in compatibility mode for:
then make sure drop down says  Windows XP SP2
then hit ok
then and i right  Click Setup And select run as adminstrator
hit allow if it prompts you and go thru the normal setup  like you would with XP  had no issues here works great........
Hope this helps : )
ps doing same for most xp programs  makes them run like they are in XP

    Can I use InDesign cs6 to open and work with PM6.5 files?

    It should be much easier to re-link in the Pagemaker file, as, with any luck, you can get the filenames from the Graphics Manager.  After conversion to InDesign, any out-of-date linked images get their names converted to something like "image 123.jpg", and are themselves converted to an embedded low res representation of the image.  Even vectored art.  Pretty hard to figure them out, unless you are VERY familiar with the file, which you may be.
    It may be that any cropping gets lost, too?  I do prepress work, we do some set up for our customers, but most comes in pretty much ready to go, so I don't often have to did too deep into fixing such issues. On the other hand, any problem that can happen has probably crossed my desk, or it seems that way some days!

  • How can I use an IF ELSE statement and the xdoxslt: get_variable together?

    First of all, I'm a big fan of this forum and I just want to thank the community for helping make the BI Publisher world a better place.
    I'm trying to populate a table with a years worth of data with the column=PRODUCT and row=month of DATE. Here's the catch, not all of the months will have data. So here's where my problem is, I'm not able to use an IF ELSE statement along with a XDOXSLT:GET_VARIABLE expression so that if there's no data for that month the default value will be 0.
    Can someone help me find a solution to either one of the attempts below or a completely new method? Thanks!
    BP4 = numeric month value using DATE (more code to pull only month from DATE not included here)
    JAN1 = PRICE if data exists, else 0
    1) I tried this and it didn't work:
    <?if: xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'BP4'),01 then xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',PRICE) else xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',0) end if?>
    <?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'JAN1')?>
    <?end if?>
    2) I tried this and it didn't work:
    <?xdoxslt:ifelse(xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'BP4')='01',xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',PRICE),xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',0))?>
    <?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'JAN1')?>
    <?end if?>
    3) I tried this and it didn't work:
    <?xdofx:if xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'BP4')='01' then xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',PRICE) else xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX, 'JAN1',0) end if?>
    <?xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'JAN1')?>
    <?end if?>

    let me clarify my logic, the template 1) searches for the relevant PRODUCT (in the case below, it searches for BPD which is the column in the table) 2) searches for the relevant month in DATE (which is the row in the table) 3) if data exists, get PRICE else default to 0
    Variable definitions:
    BP4 = numeric month value from DATE (more code to get this value not included here, but it works...)
    JAN1 = set to PRICE if data exists for that month, else 0
    the query is only pulling all of the existing data, so if there's no data for March then there wouldn't be a March entry in the xml. In the sample xml below, we only have data for the first two months (Jan, Feb) so that's the only data in the xml. I can't check if PRICE is null because the xml will not have any data for March.
    I've read through other threads and it seems that BI Publisher can't use an IF THEN ELSE with the XDOXSLT:GET_VARIABLE. I sent the template and xml to you.

    When software update loads it says checking... but it stays at 10% for at least 1 hr.  I reinstalled SL once and it did something different, suddenly my wifi stopped working, and rapidly fluxtuated.

    It is probably not wise to leave your e-mail and phone number on a public forum.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Use your backup copy to put everything back.
    You purchase one download only.
    If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( not good), then you can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod: File>Transfer Purchases

  • Can I use indesign without being online

    can I use indesign without being online.

    Creative Cloud aplications are installed on and run from your computer. You must have an internet connection to activate, and CC will "phone home" periodically to verify that your subscription is valid, but otherwise no network connecton is required. If CC is unable to make a connection to verify subscription status you should still have 30 days grace period to work.
    As far as the file being too large, I'm not a Publisher user so I don't know haow it handles images, but the correct method in InDesign would be to Place the images which creates a link to the original of only a few bytes in the file, and it would not be unusual to have a document with hundreds of pages and hundreds of linked photos.

  • Can you replace existing images in Captivate 7 the way you can when using InDesign?

    Can you replace existing images in Captivate 7 the way you can when using InDesign? I need to replace some images but wondering if I'll need to reformat, resize, rename for the Advanced Action, etc.

    The work flow is a bit more complicated than in InDesign (keeps only a link to the image as you know in the frame). I understand the problem with the advanced/shared action references. This is my work flow, maybe someone else has an easier, shorter one:
    Right-click on the image and use 'Find in Library' or use CTRL-ALT-F if it works on your keyboard (doesn't on my AZERTY one)
    In the Library use the right-click menu to open the Properties or double-click the name of the image
    In that dialog box, choose 'Import' and choose your new image; for some reason you cannot choose from the Library however, which I find really sad because I'm used to import all assets to the Library.
    Drawback: if the new image has not the same width/height ratio, it will adapt to the original size of the image, you can use Edit image to repair. You'll keep the name of the image, you don't have to change advanced/shared actions.

    how can I use microsoft word, power point and those apps in my new iMac ? i bought this iMac yesterday so am new on tho and i would like to know

    If you absolutely must have the Microsoft applications, you can purchase and download them from http://microsoft.com/mac.
    Free software suites LibreOffice and OpenOffice offer similar functionality (word processing and spreadsheets).
    Or you could do worse than look at Apple's Pages, Numbers and Keynote, which should already be installed in your Mac and can export to Microsoft formats if need be.

    When you turn on your iDevice for the first time just sign in with the same Apple ID and you can download any apps you have purchased in the past! There shouldn't be a limit to how many devices you can use.

  • Can i use home sharing if me and my wife have different apple ID accounts?

    can i use home sharing if me and my wife have different apple ID accounts?

    Yes.
    You need to sign into home sharing using ONE Apple ID. So either pick yours or hers, use the same one for home sharing on the computers. Once they are signed in on both Macs you can access media that the other user purchased.
    Click the 'Shared House' for her library (if you have the sidebar enabled) when you are in your iTunes to access her media & vice versa, both iTunes needs to be running & awake.
