Thanks Gary and Handrawn,
This is a simple question I hope. I remember in the past that there was a Xara website that I could go to to get information on my account. ie. versions of Xara Xtreme purchased, when etc.
I am...
I'm catching up. I was 79 yesterday. Erik
Glad you got it sorted, Or at least the major issue.
Hi Gremlin
Slitting a file and recombining the individual PDF bits before publishing is a recipe for lots of headaches. As Acorn has mentioned, a Table of Contents will be difficult. Easier I'd...
Hi Gary,
another fine stereogram. Is it possible to have the base of the spiral join seamlessly with the background? The current one finishes just below the background and jars just a little bit....
Hi Acorn, thanks for getting back to me. After some fiddling I got the serial number back and working.
Erik.
To whoever,
I have XX 4,5,6 and 9 and have had them all working in the past. I'm using 6 and 9 at present. My problem is that I want to install xx5 on an old computer. I have the disks and the...
Hi Wolfgang,
I'd second Boy's suggestion.
1. Write out your new text in Comica bold.
2. Choose text. Change fill to colour you want.
3. Change line to transparent.
This does not work...
Thanks folks, particularly Egg. I am sure I can get this going now. At the moment though I have now moved about three hours away from home and only have access to a rather clunky laptop. Looking...
Hi people of wisdom.
I am sure I have seen a tutorial on this in the past but cannot find it now.
I want to take a number, in this case 7, in a common sans serif font say Arial and and produce...
Hi Delaco,
Sounds like sound advice except for using Acobat. Don't like it - never have.
I would use PDFill PDF Tools available from https://www.pdfill.com/download.html. I have used Version 11...
Bloody Hell Pedroke! Congratulations. I have just finished watching it as the sun comes up on a sunny Australian morning. That is a beautiful piece of work. Extraordinarly evocative of a subject that...
Coleen,
There are quite a few free programs that will take multiple PDFs and combine them into one. I have used stand alone ones quite a few times but have never been happy with online ones.
Let...
Hi Acorn,
My initial note was really just to say that I had got it and was playing with it. Now when I get some time I'll try and get some bits into Xara and see if I can be messy. I've been in...
Hi Folks,
I'm a sucker for pattern makers so I brought down BobI and did some fiddling. It is good fun but ultimately I found it a bit limited in the number of iterations I could go to. My machine...
Egg,
Ah! That explains it. Obvious in hindsight.

Hi Acorn,
thanks for the reply. I trawled Google and found that watermarks usually do not fluoresce under UV and that most people use a patent liquid enhancer to bring them up. Benzene and other...
Acorn,
I presume your image is a superimposition of the 'real' stamp onto the watermark image?
If you enhanced the image how did you do it? My efforts have been no better than the others shown...
Outlining the shapes before filling is tedious, even if you get faster at it with practice. To do the detail in the figure would be a pain since it looks like your shapes are overlapping single...
I tried opening it with X4. No joy. ej
Hi Michael,
great tip. I tested it with a quick and dirty single page of text and three photographs.

OK, It looks interesting and certainly columns, styles and page numbers are valuable things to have. However, there are a couple of other things that I cannot see mentioned. (This may be because I am...
Thanks everyone who answered. I'm going to wait and see what happens with the next cycle. I don't really want to instal twice in as many months and I doubt that any saving by upgrading now will count...
People, I am confused by the changing titles and versions of Xara products.
Currently I have various versions up to and including X Designer Pro 6. I left 7 alone for various reasons but am...
