Is there a version of Pages that does an OUTSTANDING job of exporting to HTML...yet?

I stopped using Pages 1.0.2 all together and went back to using AppleWorks because Pages could not export to HTML (even though it claimed to be able to).
I'm so close to being forced to buy a new computer, as my little PowerBook G4 12" (that I love and still works great) cannot have any more RAM added (and I need it), is no longer supported by so much. I am not going down until my little ship almost goes down. I have a big AppleWorks document that must not go down with it.
It's a book manuscript and it must be able to be formated into HTML.
What's the latest news on Pages functionality where HTML is concerned. Also, how is the PDF export working?
What version of Pages does what I will need to do: HTML export perfectly AND create a PDF file perfectly?
Thanks.
From,
Suz

Well, not requiring a third party (like for getting a song on iTunes) is good. But...
An ISBN numbers for the book you want to sell          (no problem)
The ability to deliver the book in ePub format          (this is NOT good for the Indie author who writes a great book because now it can be stolen in outer Mongolia and resold on Amazon...which offers DRM...under a new name)
The book pass EpubCheck 1.0.5       (this would be no problem)
A US Tax ID (Non US are out of luck for now)        (no problem)
An iTunes account backed up by a credit card       (no problem)
An idea of where you’ll sell and how much you’ll sell for       (no problem)
An Intel-based Mac running OS 10.5 or better (PC users are SOL) ..........(ah...now I, and many others, have an enormous PROBLEM...because...I would need to buy a whole new computer that won't even have the capacity to offer me an APPLE word processing program that will do all the things I need to do...many of which requires me to have the ability to export what I write into HTML!!!! So why bother spending all THAT kind of money when I can spend an actual fraction of the amount to buy a souped up Acer with loads of memory and preinstalled Word so that I can sell from Amazon, which has an enormous customer base. With all the money I'd be saving on the brand new Mac that I didn't actually NEED anyway, I can buy the Word! See! Maybe it really is a PC world and Apple jumped off the boat by not offering a word processing program that is compareable to Microsoft Word to Mac users...and by making it impossible for PC users to utilize iBooks...and by sort of ticking off Indie authors with common sense who do NOT want their independently published ebooks cannibalized via ePub, which is like saying: Here...read my book and pass it all around the world FREE so that someone else in some foreign land can get their hands on it and sell it on Amazon! WhatEVER.)

Is there a version of Pages that actually *does* something?

My biggest needs are to be able to compare documents and find/replace with wildcards. Is there a version of Pages that does this, or is Pages just an expensive version of Bean? I'm thinking of just tossing iWork into the trash and, despite a few concerns, just buying MS Word:Mac. I was hoping to give my support to Apple, though, but I need word software that actually doesn't stop me in my tracks every three seconds.
Any advice before I follow through would be fantastic. Thanks!

Pages does't do wild card searches, and that's pretty much that.
But you knew that already.
What folks tend to forget is that just below the visible surface of their interface, most OS X applications are full participants in the AppleScript underworld. Whenever you find yourself cursing the engineer who failed to include an incredibly useful feature in the app you're using, remember that a DIY solution might be a lot closer than you think.
Pages, for example, has a fairly comprehensive AppleScript dictionary, and can take advantage of the usual scripts menu interface as well as any application. This makes it possible to extend the program to do just about anything, including (especially) activities involving other applications. And note that to AppleScript, the entire Unix subsystem is just one more application available to do whatever it can do for any purpose you can imagine. Pages has access to GREP, SED, and all the rest, just waiting for you to tell it what to do.
If you're a complete stranger to AppleScript and in an "I want what I want and I want it now" mood, this may not be a good time to invest in learning new tricks. On the other hand, if you love the application except for the way it leaves the cap off the Find & Replace toothpaste, it might be worth it to you to pursue therapy for that one little quirk rather than go find a new girl/boy friend.
Keep in mind, too, that AppleScript is enormously seductive for anyone who wants it his/her way, and there are vast numbers of geeks out there willing to code just about anything for no more than the chance to do some good, show off their smarts, and maybe have a case of preferred microbrew.
While the site seems to be Having Technical Difficulties of late, macscripter.net is still a great resource. Not least of all because if something has annoyed you enough to go looking for a solution, it's likely annoyed someone else enough to have already created one.

HT4168 Is there a version of Pages that allows you to paste a webpage?

Is there a version of Pages that allows you to paste a webpage into Pages and retain the text that's on the webpage? Pages-09 drops about 90% of the web-page text, when a webpage is pasted into Pages.

1. You can print webpages to pdf in Safari and retain all the links
2. Pages does retain most of the formatting your problem is probably the way you selected it and insufficient width in the page to fit the layout
3. There are some objects and code that won't translate to DTP document, Pages is not a browser
4. If all you want is the text use command option shift v

Is there a version of PS that can adjust a batch by a Historgram setting?

Is there a version of PS that can adjust mass numbers of high res images for Contrast and Brightness but at the same time constrained by a Histogram setting?
I have thousands of hi res .sid or .png images that are all of various degrees of brightness and need to be brightened to different degrees along with contrast changes. Although it can obviously be done individually, I am seeking a batch command that can do this without over correcting. Is there any PS version that can analyze each photo and make brightness and contrast corrections but constrained by a histogram setting? Because some photos need twice the brightness or contrast than others, using that batch same command will result in many of the photos being over corrected. Thus, I am looking to adjust via an auto Histogram analysis of each photo to avoid over correction. Is there any software that does this?

Yes, it can be installed on a network. I teach Dreamweaver at a university in London, so I know that it definitely works. But I'm not a systems admin, so I don't know the details of how it's done. However, the following should be a starting point for your sysadmin: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/creativesuite/enterprisedeployment.html.

Is there a version of iTunes that is compatible with Windows 8.1?

Is there a version of iTunes that is compatible with Windows 8.1?

Thanks! The procedure worked great for me (using iTunes 10), however there was one caveat. I also had to edit “AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi” with Orca and change the entry in “LaunchCondition” from
VersionNT64>=600
to
VersionNT64>=501
in order for the Device Manager driver update procedure to work, and iTunes to recognize my iPhone4. Prior to doing this, only “digital still camera” was displayed in the “imaging” entry in Device Manger. Once I did the above, “Apple Mobile Device USB Driver” was listed, and the procedure worked as written.

How to redirect a page that does not exist

Hello everyone. Thanks for the feedback so far.
I am editing an old site and there are going to be some pages that do not exist anymore.
Is there a way to have an automatic redirect so that if any user types in ANY page that does not exist sitewide, they can be directed to another main redirection page which displays a message and then to the main page again?
The current site is littered with empty pages with a redirect link on each at the moment which does not look good and it's awful to maintain as these non-meaningful filenames the original developer has used are no help at all.
Thank you in advance for all feedback
Terry

What is the web address of the old site?
If it's on a Linux server then you can use .htaccess rewrites to automate much of the redirection heavy lifting

Javascript to create bookmark for page that does not exist yet

Hello all,
Is there a way to write js for a bookmark that goes to a page that does not currently exist?
For example, I have a 20 page pdf document. We have FileMaker Pro that can 'append' to a PDF additional pages. So when FileMaker pro appends two new pages (bringing us up to 22 pages), I'd like to have 2 'existing' bookmarks in the original 20 page pdf document that will, when clicked, go to page 21 and 22 respectfully.
Is this possible and would anyone have the JS I would put into that bookmark?
Thank you in advance!!

Here's what I posted in the other forum you posted this to, in case it might help someone here:
The JavaScript would be:
// Go to page 21
pageNum = 20;
If there are fewer than 21 pages, it will go to the last page. If you want to avoid this, you could do something like:
// Go to page 21 if there are at least 21 pages
if (numPages > 20) pageNum = 20;

How to create an OAF page that does not need login to access

We have a lot of Oracle users, and everyday there are some users forget there username or password and need reset. I really want to use a web page to let them reset their passwords automatically. The web page will call the API to reset password if it found the user request is legible.
So based on the situation, the users should not need a login to get to this page, can I do this using OAF?
And idea is welcome, thank you for your help!

Srini,
Thank you for your response, I think we need to go back to my original question, is it possible to create an OAF page that does not need login, how can I do that.
I think I said too much and led us to go to a different direction I did't want to. But I am still glad to texplain why I need a custom password reset process, that is all about business requirement, here it is:
----I am not sure that "company issues" (such as what you described) can be solved by software -
I already have a solution for that. Create a custom OAF page, ask user to input his SSN / Date of Birth.... then I can figure out what his real username easily. And I can reset his password as his SSN or something which only this particular user knows. Then he can login.
----you may have to impart training to end users.
As I mentioned, most of our users use only Benefit self service. They only login several times a year, even they are trained this year, most of them will forget next year, this is just human nature. And because the nature of our business, thousands of employees may change at the end of a year. It does not make any business sense for company to prepare trainers every year.
----In any case, the functionality you require is already built into the product.
I guess the reason most companies hire Oracle Developers is that some functionality Oracle Applications provide is not exactly the companies needed. When there is Oracle Apps product, there is alway customization.

How do I update the browser on the MacBookPro? I would like to get newer version of Safari; however, if that is not possible, is there a version of anything that I can get for MAC OS 10.5.8?

Hi kwalker08865,
It would appear that the most recent version of Safari that is compatible with OS X 10.5.8 would be Safari 5.0.6. If this would meet your needs, you can find more information and a download link on the following page:

Is there a version of iMovie that will import ProRes files?

Is there a version of iMovie that will import ProRes files?
Final Cut Pro does, but does iMovie HD? And which version?

Luca, I'm not sure acceptable life in iMovie at 60p is possible, and not sure about YouTube at this point either.
(I have a 2.66GHz Core i5 iMac with 8GB ram running Snow Leopard OSX 10.6.8)
My first export using QT x264 1080 59.94, auto key, +CABAC, crashed iMovie, but later times worked ok.
The non-QT export 1080 HD computer - puts out a 29.97 fps movie with lots of motion artifacts.
I checked plist - videoframerate and newProjectFrameRate were 30, so changed to 60 and redid the import, title, finalize, exports, and share to YouTube.
The non-QT export 1080 HD computer - still put out 29.97 fps.
QT Export x264 1080 framerate 59.94 fixed, auto key, +CABAC put out a 43 Mpbs 59.94 H.264 QuickTime movie which occasionally stutters, but it appears to have the same quality as the original 1080p60 footage.
Moving to a 1080p60 camera has been frought with disappointments. The latest VLC can play my raw video but it often stutters (from no times to lots of times).
Repackaging as MP4 using ffmpeg -i in.MTS -vcodec copy -acodec copy out.mp4 doesn't get rid of the stuttering.
Toast Video Player also has occassional stutters.
Converting using Handbrake does not eliminate the occasional stutter.
QT playing the prores transcoded source footage claims 255 Mbps data rate 59.94 fps, and it also stutters sometimes, sometimes not.
The Share... YouTube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mByr3Y3wfz4 which appears to only be 30 fps (the mp4 download is 30p).
The 60pQT export uploaded is at: http://youtu.be/Hv1TgcoaxfM also downloads as a 30p MP4 so I have no idea what is going on.
"(i)Life" in 60p seems a bit complicated.

http://www.stuffit.com/mac/expander/
I'm pretty certain that I got my version of stuffit, which has worked excellently on my Intel MBP, from that site. I downloaded it around the time when I first got the laptop, so I'm pretty sure that's the site.
If it's not let me know and I can give you links to a different site, or I can just e-mail you the installer file directly.
If it doesn't work for any other reason, or does the encrypted thing that you stated, let me know I'll look into it.

Creating a page that does not exist

Hi everyone,
Is it possible to create a page that does not exist based on the user input?
By does not exist I mean that it is not stored in your computer and JSP will generate the page based on the user input. For example, in forums the user can create a new topic and based on the options selected a page will be created and stored that was not present before. The same thing happens when a message has a large number of replies, in which a new page will be created and attached to the previous page. I hope that I am not misunderstanding the concept of creating pages in forums.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Basil Mahdi

Hi,
what happens in the forums is that you type in a message and that message is stored in a database. Along with your message the number of thread, forum number and message number is stored. Next time somebody wants to read your message, this message is taken from the db and shown to you by the jsp. The JSP ofcourse does more thant taht it shows also other messages and static HTML.

i download the recent ios for iphone 4. i connected iphone 4 to my pc and it wont connect to itunes. What is the lastest version of itunes that DOES NOT support the lastest version of ios?

Yes, due to Incomplete Software Update on your iPhone your Device is now in Recovery Mode and you cannot take a Backup now. But if you have taken a backup earlier then you can Restore that backup on your iPhone after you Reset your iPhone to Factory Settings.
