General Software Discussion / references in PDF

« on: September 19, 2010, 04:49 AM »

hello

In PDF files, there are often reference numbers, which correspond to a reference at the bottom of the PDF file. These reference numbers appear as either superscript or a number inside parenthesis or brackets. Here is an example:

This appears at the first page of the PDF file:


This appears at the one before the last page of the PDF file:


is there a way to display the reference in a tooltip, when I hover over the reference number? or any other way to be able to see the reference AS I see the reference number, without having to scroll down and search for the reference?

General Software Discussion / extracting info from pdf

« on: September 12, 2010, 12:58 PM »

hello

I am starting to work with PDF files and I would like to extract a table and save it as a graphics file or as a MS Office table (not as Excel, because it has symbols, lines, etc, it is not only numerical data)

what is the best way to do this? I will incorporate it in a PowerPoint or MS Office document

I need it to be in the original quality

I also need not to use a crop tool, because I need the optimum margins, etc, is there a way to extract that table in the default way?

thanks

Finished Programs / Finished Coding Snack: Organize Text

« on: July 10, 2010, 04:40 PM »

hello

I don't know if it is easy to do what I want or there is a tool already available... well, I have a text file with a list of sentences (each sentence seperated with a newline)

what I want is to group/organize the sentences, by cutting them and pasting them to specific text files (other that the one with the sentences list)

so I want to automatically select a sentence, cut it, and paste it in the appropriate text file by clicking a shortcut key
then select the next one, cut and paste it in the appropriate text file, etc

to choose the appropriate target text file, where I want each sentence to go, I must click the relevant shorcut key

that would be very handy for this kind of job, any suggestion??

thanks

General Software Discussion / word and excel shortcut

« on: February 07, 2010, 03:37 AM »

hello

is there a key shortcut that can move the cursor automatically to the top cell of the first right column, from the cell we type?

this is very useful if you are filling columns with numbers, so that you don't have to move the cursor with the mouse or with the arrows, etc

also, in office, is there a key shortcut that will capitalize or lowercase the selected letters?

thanks

General Software Discussion / google results

« on: November 23, 2009, 10:18 AM »

hello

in google search results, some webpages' text preview has more text that if you visit the webpage itself (where full view of the whole text is restricted)

I am not talking about webpages that are archived/cached, or at least the webpages I am talking about don't have a 'cached version' link when they appear in google results

why this happens? how can google robot retrieve all the text while a regular user can't?
how can one see what google robot 'sees'? maybe disguish as a google robot?

thanks
