General Software Discussion / table width in MS Office problem

« Last post by kalos on October 10, 2010, 11:44 AM »

hello

in a table in MS Word 2003, how can i set the width of a specific column to be accordingly to the content (text inside), WHILE the total width of the table not to be affected?

because i select a column, i click to adjust width to the content, but then MS Office does so in the other columns as well, which results in an altered total table width

thanks

ok after working with the software I realize that it doesn't do what i want, it's gear drawing features are very limited, probably because it's about mechanics, not graphics

i want to draw gears in a row (one a bit above/below the next) that look like these, with the same tooth appearance:

General Software Discussion / Re: extracting info from pdf

« Last post by kalos on October 09, 2010, 02:20 AM »

-the picture will not be vector, because kalos is talking about taking a screenshot; a bitmap. If the files are like the test file, I *imagine* size 150% will be fine. But it doesn't make sense to talk about borders; since there are no genuine pictures, there will be no natural borders.
-Curt (October 08, 2010, 07:46 PM)

indeed, one can "imagine" that 150% "would" be fine, these are the problems I need to overpass

as for natural borders, since there is no picture file ofcourse they don't exist, but I think PDF editors do great job in determining borders than an individual can do by draggin his mouse over the to be captured area

you could enlarge the image as much as you can before taking the screenshot. That's your best quality there.

how to calculate this? in which zoom can you extract the above scheme?

I know, that's why I need a screenshot-like tool that will take advantage of pdf editor's abilities to mark the appropriate borders and recognize the exact area to be copied

i am also in search of a way to estimate the optimum resolution before taking the snapshot

it was because of you that I tested Solid PDF Tools

wait, what procedure do you follow in Nitro PDF?

1)
Click EDIT, then click on the graphics you want to copy in the pdf file, then right click COPY, then paste in MS Paint?
if so, it doesn't work always, to be honest, it doesn't work with most graphics, maybe because the graphics are 'protected'

2)
Click "Snapshot" then drag to select an area then paste in MS Paint?
this way ALL the above mentioned problems occur (not optimum resolution, not optimum borders)

I am curious to reading your way with this

but I already mentioned this

it is about extracting a photo, diagram, index, etc from a pdf file, but not by taking a screenshot that is not precise (since it varies with zoom value)

you told me that Solid PDF Tools offer this, to automatically recognize/select a table, graphics etc (all pdf editors do this) and to extract/save it as image file (none pdf editor does this, they only do it if you take a screenshot)

there is no way to work properly with pdf files, i wonder why they created such format, it is very frustrating

TO SUM UP:
i just need to be able to extract graphics, but to do so properly, which means:

1) in the optimum resolution (which means best possible quality, without distortion resulting from too big zoom, or without loss of quality resulting from too small zoom)
2) with the optimum borders (which means optimumly proportioned and not missing any area of the graphics, even if that area is empty)

also, i would like to be able to extract tables, diagrams etc in a format that i can easily replace their text, without damaging the format, architecture, etc of the graph, diagram, table, etc, but i bet this is too much for pdf format
