When Importing a word doc the total length of the document is longer

I have a simple 15 page word doc, Times New Roman, double spaced, that I imported into Pages. The problem is that the document increased in length to a full 16 pages! When I opened the document into text edit, and word on windows, the document is the normal size. Any suggestions?
By the way...iWork 08 is awesome!!!

I got it. Highlight the whole document, open up the text inspector, then change the line spacing to 1.9. Worked perfectly on a 15 page document.

  • RoboHelp freezing when importing large word docs

    What are your experiences with RoboHelp for HTML Help when
    importing large Word docs?
    Mine seems to stop responding and has to be restarted. Also,
    creating PDFs for large docs seems to be a problem.
    While I am here, could someone please answer these questions:
    1. Does RoboHelp support conditional inclusion/exclusion and
    replacement of text? Where you can use a condition to display one
    text OR another.
    2. Does Robo support Modular Help?
    3. What about automating output generation using batch files?
    Is this possible?
    4. Can PDF outputs be customized using templates?
    it looks like Robo offers partial solutions to each of the
    above questions but I will like to hear your experiences, as I am
    on evaluation the tool with limited time.
    TIA.

  • When I download word docs my MacBook is adding the flv extension onto the doc extension and I can't open the doc. Any ideas?

    When I download word docs my MacBook is adding the flv extension onto the doc extension and I can't open the doc. Any ideas?

    Go to the main Library folder and look for a folder called Application Support / Microsoft.
    There are a few folders in there, and you may have to do some digging. In one of them (mine is called MAU2.0), there should be a file called Microsoft Autoupdate. Open it.
    It looks like this:
    check the button for manual updates.
    That should let you open the apps without triggering an automatic update.

  • How to find the total length of the string drawed in a rect?

    Hello Everybody,
    I am drawing a string in on one rect using drawInRect method. This drawInRect method gives us a return value as size of the rect. I need length of the string that is did draw in that rect, but didn't find any api to do this.
    Can anyone tell me , how find the length of the string which we did draw in rect?
    Any help regarding this issue , is highly appreciable.
    Thanks,
    Pandit

    Hi Adreas,
    First of all, very thanks for the response.
    Actually , I am looking for other thing. Using drawInRect method I am drawing contentString in self.rect like below.
    //code
    [contentString drawInRect:self.rect withFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"Verdana" size:14.0] lineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap alignment:UITextAlignmentLeft];
    //End
    My contentString is much larger string, so I am not able to draw it in rect(length: 320.0 height: 460.0) completely. My rect is showing only a part of a contentString. So I need to get that part of string which did draw in the rect, so that I can process my contentString to get the remaining string to draw it a next rect.
    The above code statement is returning me the CGSIZE , it is giving the size of the rect but not giving any information of the string which get draw in that rect.Do you have any idea how to do this?
    Any information on this is highly appreciable.
    Thanks,
    Pandit

  • When i import a word.doc and open on my iPad in  Pages, and then later export and reopen as a word.doc on my PC, hyphenation is lost

    when i import a word.doc to my iPad in Pages and then, later, export back to my PC as a word.doc, why does hyphenation disappear?

    Perhaps it would work better if you use one of the apps specifically designed to interface with MS Word, instead of Pages which has to convert everything in and out.

  • When I i port a word doc into pages it throws the format out and I cant adjust it?

    when I i port a word doc into pages it throws the format out and I cant adjust it?

    Pease don't say the "latest" that doesn't tell us anything.
    People are always getting it wrong.
    Tell us the actual version number:
    Menu > Pages > About Pages
    Can you select the footer? And what is in the footer?
    Sometimes Word has these things in separte textboxes under other things and you need to lassoo them to get rid of them.

  • When opening a word doc in pages i am loosing the graphic images from powerpoint that were embedded in the word doc

    When opening a word doc in pages i am loosing the graphic images from powerpoint that were embedded in the word doc

    Are the images placed in a table? Many Word user have the habit of doing that. Tables are not handles the same way in Word and Pages so they get "hidden" in Pages. One way to find this out is to change the size of the paper of the document. You do that in the Page setup in the file menu. Create a document that is much longer that the default one and see if you images will pp up.

  • When importing images in Pages, how do I set the default object placement to "stay on page" and "no text wrap"?

    when importing images in Pages, how do I set the default object placement to "stay on page" and "no text wrap"?

    Then use a Layout template.
    I am a designer and I use Word Processing templates with layout breaks and all the other tools available because Layout templates are just WP templates with a lot of options removed.
    Pages is not Indesign, but then Indesign is not Pages, …and Pages 5 is not Pages '09.
    Unless your flyers are for the Web, why are you using Pages at all?
    I am curious, what does your post have to do with the O.P.'s question? …and why are you posting it here?

  • I am looking for an application that would allow me to open a word doc, and take notes in the .doc using a stylus pen.  I'd then like to convert those notes to text, and then be able to copy / paste those notes into an email.  Does this app exist?

    I am looking for an application that would allow me to open a word doc, and take notes in the .doc using a stylus pen.  I'd then like to convert those notes to text, and then be able to copy / paste those notes into an email.  Does this app exist?  It seems like we were doing these same types of things with Palm Pilots years ago, one would think this would work with iPads?

    I don't believe it will open a Word document, but Writepad allows for handwritten conversion of notes to text and then to email. Might help you some of the way...

  • When importing Raw into A3, in what format is the picture displayed? Jpeg or tiff.

    When importing Raw into A3, in what format is the picture displayed on the screen? Jpeg or Tiff ?

    None of the comments you have gotten are particularly useful.  The display is independent of format of the file.  It's rendering is of the full pixels in the image file that you have imported, modified by any adjustments you have made, or not if you ask to see the Master.
    Even if your Master was imported as a JPEG, as seen on the screen it would have been decompressed, and you would see all the pixels (that the screen is capable of).  However, a JPEG may have lost some detail in the compression, but when decompressed has the same number of pixels as the equivalent uncompressed photo format -- but some of them may result from interpolation, and not be the original.

  • Format the total value in the column of the graph table

    Hello all,
    I have a graph table and I need to format the total value in the column of the table.
    I am trying to find my table bean with the code below but it's not working in the processRequest. Is there anything else that should be done?
    // Get the graph
    OAGraphTableBean graphBean = (OAGraphTableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("MyGraph");
    // Get the table
    OATableBean tblBean = (OATableBean)graphBean.findChildRecursive("MyTable");
    The tblBean is null in the processRequest. In the processFormRequest the tblBean is not null.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Andrea

    Hi,
    The code OAGraphTableBean graphBean = (OAGraphTableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("MyTable"); does not work because in this case I am getting the table but casting to a graph.
    The MyTable bean is a child of MyGraph.
    When creating a graph bean we have the option to create a table as a child (select your graphTable region in the Structure pane, and choose New > tabularFormat - to create the table).
    The table bean child I can get just in the processFormRequest, but the graph I can get in both processRequest and processFormRequest.
    I need to get the table bean in the processRequest to format the total value column.
    Do you know if is there anything else that should be done to format the total column?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Andrea

  • How to count the total lines of the file (including the file header)

    Hi all,
    I am working with Idoc to file scenario(FCC).
    I need to map one of the field with a recound count ie.., count of the total lines of the file (including the file header).
    Eg:Record Count-- mapping area:Total number of records in the file including file header     The total line of the file (including the file header).
    Can i get a help on this.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Manoj

    Hi !
    If there is a tag of your IDOC that occurs the same quantity of times as file lines you have to create in your target file, you could make a Java user defined function in graphical mapping that "caches the entire queue" (use the corresponding option button), that receives as input that field of the IDOC, and returns the "lenght" (.length property value) of that input parameter (it is an array) as output..that should be the file line quantity..you may also add 1 to that count, for the header.
    Hope it helps.
    Regards,
    Matias.
