June, People shouldn't have to hit the "ENTER" key when typing a post. Instead, people posting pictures should be aware of the image sizes that they are posting within the threads and not post images that are so large that they will require everyone reading the entire thread to scroll. As Jel was saying above, people have different screen resolution settings on their computers. I just looked up some statistics, and as of July 2006 (according to w3schools.com), 58% of Internet users have their screen resolution set to 1024x768, 17% have their screen resolution set to 800x600 and 19% are set higher than 1024x768. Changing your screen resolution is not too difficult, and you can play with it to see how it affects what your looking at on your computer. Here are some quick directions: While your desktop is visible, right click and select Properties from the options that appear. The Display Properties dialog box will appear. Select the Settings tab from across the top. In the area for Screen Resolution you will notice a slider bar that you can drag left or right to change your screen resolution. Once you change the screen resolution, select the Apply button in the bottom-right corner. You may see a prompt that says something like "Your desktop has been reconfigured. Do you want to keep these settings? Reverting in X seconds". Select "Yes" (you can always change it again). Now, open up a browser window to see the affect. However, knowing what screen resolution most people are using doesn't take into account that not everyone has their browser window maximized. If the window is not maximized, horizontal scrolling may be necessary even if the images are not too large. It is probably a safe assumption that if your images are sized to be no wider than about 750 pixels, most people viewing the thread with your picture will not have to scroll horizontally to see the picture or all of the text within the posts. Simply adding the "width="XXX" as Jel mentioned will cause the image viewers see in your post to resize, but the image that is being called from PhotoBucket (or wherever your images are hosted) is still the original size, and the file size can still be quite large. The file size is different from the actual image dimenions being viewed. Large file sizes for images can cause the posts to take a long time for people who do not have a high-speed Internet connection to download. The best bet is to resize your images appropriately before uploading them to PhotoBucket. You will not need to include the width code, and the actual file size of your image will be much smaller. ~Angie

Nonnie, please don't take offense but I think the problem is more with you being a novice than with Wordperfect. I say that based on a couple clues you give me in your post. One thing is WordPerfect will accept any universal graphics format. Those do not include graphics generated in program-specific formats like Print Shop or Master Prints and other such programs. Universal formats include bmp, jpg, tif, wmf, eps, pcx, png, and there are many others, but these are the most common. WordPerfect will accept all of these and most (if not all) of the others. And, of course, it accepts its own format wpg. To find out what it will accept, go to Insert Picture as if you are going to insert one. Click on the Files of Type arrow at the bottom and scroll to see what all is in there. Files of any other type will not be compatible, which means you might have to tell it to accept more if it isn't already programmed to do that. This is part of setup and is located on your WordPerfect installation disk. Concerning the article you are trying to put into your document, I don't know what that is. Is it type-written words or is it a graphic image? Is it a WordPerfect document? A Word document? A document created in some other program? Or a graphic clip that someone sent you? And how are you trying to insert it? If it is type written, is it possible to copy and paste it in? Please give a little more information? Increasing memory, as Owbist suggested, is always a good. I do know Word is the more popular word processing program used these days, but WordPerfect is also powerful and nothing snuff at LOL. I can understand the documents you receive from people are usually written in Word and having Word will make like a lot easier for you. So, to answer your question, yes you can install and run Word without having to uninstall WordPerfect. Installing Word is simple enough. The installation Wizard will walk you through it. You just follow the instructions on the screen and answer the questions it asks. You may want to instruct submissions to limit file types and size. If I were you, I'd make that only bmp formats because they don't blur or distort as readily as jpg formatted images. Also, people will send 10mg files because they don't know any better. You may want to tell them to limit file size to 1mg or 2 or 3 so you are able to manage the size and functionability of your newsletter pages(s). If you ever have to take your newsletter to a service bureau for printing, they will require jpg images only, so you will need to know that when instructing submissions.

Always check out buy.com and ebay for used textbooks. There are some cases where an older edition won't work. Some professors assign homework from the textbook questions and the questions can change from edition to edition. Some colleges are looking for ways to help save students' money on textbooks. I know a few rent the books from year to year for a lot less than for what one could buy them. A professor I had for history used an on-line textbook, until the company went out of business and we couldn't access the website any more. Another teacher taught psychology from the book he wrote, but you could easily ace the tests from the lecture notes. Sometimes, it's worth waiting to buy the book until you see the first test. Many teachers just test on the lectures, so the book is only there for reference or clarification. It depends on the type of class too. Math books are often needed because problems are assigned from the book. But there is no reason that you can't share the book with another classmate, saving 1/2 the cost of the book. I bought a couple of books in subjects that were in my major because I thought I could use them again (which I did). I agree that textbooks are a major scam. There are ways around it, though. And the more people who fight for cheaper options, the better for all students. So lobby your universities and teachers for options. They do care (mostly).

I have Version Microsoft Office 2007 (either Professional or Business). I just can't remember which I have, my wife has the other on her Laptop. I do have MS Office 2010 Professional on a DVD, just never installed it. I have MS Office 2013 on my Acer Iconia W4-820-2882 Tablet, it came with the Tablet (Think it's the Home and Student Version)! BTW, I downloaded and Opened your Document. I still have the same Menu Options. Maybe it's in the setting and you have something enabled that I don't? In my photo above; I just opened a New Word Document and added a photo from my Picture Folder. There isn't any Text, I was just trying out the Menu Options to check out the problem that Chas045 is having. I do have the same issues as Chas045. I will try this out on my Acer Iconia Tablet later. Been kinda busy. I'll post my findings here! Chuggerguy, I see in your photo that the Document you posted is opened in Compatibility Mode. If you'll note; mine doesn't say anything about Compatibility Mode at the top like yours! The only time I've see that is when someone is using a Different Office Package like Open Office! Just checked the Word Options for my 2007 version and couldn't find anything that would make a difference. I did play around with a few settings but nothing changed when pasting to the Picture Folder. Wondering if Word 2007 and Windows 10 could be the problem. Not sure what version of Word of which OS Chas045 is running?
