Theos-Talk Archives (November 2006 Message tt00057)

I did a little test (Word for pasting) and still a lot is lost. Tables are conserved a little bit better. Also I think the book has even more font-size changes than the CDROM, it's almost the Apple Mac in it's early days. But I do agree with you that MARKED words should be preserved if possible. Which is why always use SIMPLE methods for his :-)

BTW the pictures in the website where "copied" by making a screen-copy from the CDROM browser and isolating the actual image in a Imaging-program and saving that as JPG. Luckicly all images fitted on my 1280x1024 screen.
Many images appear much larger (page-size) in the book and are relatively small in th e CDROM but the  website has as much pixels as the CDROM. This is an area where I could make a better online version than the CDROM.

  Yes, I always say that she preconcivedly asked to cremate herself in 
  order to avoid such troublesome turning.

  Yes but sometimes words in italic have some stress or irony in them 
  and thus affect the meaning.

  The programs for copy and paste should be "friendly", otherwise the 
  plain text is copied. Some programs have "paste special" option and 
  you see there several options as "plain text", "rich text", "MS Word 
  object", etc. Sometimes it needs to go through a chain of three or 
  more programs to bring text or picture in good quality to the 
  destination program.
