OS X :: Scanning Into A Word Processor?

Sep 28, 2010

These question my sound kind of silly, because I have not used a digital scanner in 20 years. Can I scan and edit a typed piece of paper onto a word processor?

Applications :: Looking For Word Processor?

Jun 23, 2006

I wish Apple would develop (buy or steal) a good word processor. How about just reengineering Pages to LOOK like MS Word? The familiarity would be a big selling point. I bought iwork... and Pages just baffles me how strange it is.

OS X :: 1 Key Stroke For Right Clicking In Word Processor?

Nov 26, 2010

this is really strange, and potentially a big irritant. so i started working with OOo Writer today on my MBP. and while everything is fine, i soon noticed that there seems to no shortcut to the right click! which means that every time the dictionary suggests a word correction, or i want to quickly access the right click menu, i am forced to move to the touchpad and use 2 fingers to right click! in windows there is the Alt key that quickly brings up the list of spelling corrections in 1 key stroke. so i must say i am rather surprised that this is not the case with mac os! i hope i am missing something out, otherwise my word processing work just became that much more tedious

Applications :: Any Way Of Importing Name And Address To Word Processor?

Dec 18, 2010

I need a database of names and addresses that can be exported into a word processor for output of paper letters, with envelopes. Would anyone know of the best way to effect this? Anymore I use email, but in this instance that will not work. The standard Address Book would work fine for the data, but I find no way of importing each name and address to a word processor, such as Text Edit. The closest I've come is exporting a vCard from Address Book, which then can be opened by Text Edit, however not only several steps required, but also a profusion of needless data entwining the name and address. If not wishing to pay for all the many features of iWork, I'm not even sure if this suite of programs would answer this task, either. If preferring to use the Address Book, what would be the best solution, possibly software, to do this?

Applications :: Word Processor For Mac With Spellchecker Interface?

Jan 11, 2010

Can anyone tell me if there is a word processor available for the Mac with a spellchecker interface similar to the one used in WordPerfect? I have recently purchased a Mac and would like to install a word processor on it. I am dyslexic and I have found the WordPerfect spellchecker interface to be the best one I've come across for my needs, far better than MS Word. This also includes being better than Text Help System's Read & Write, the spellchecking application designed and recommended for dyslexics! In WordPerfect, if you don't spell a word correctly, you can retype the spelling. Instead of having to hit suggest, it automatically makes suggestions as you retype.

This way, after only typing part of the word, you may see the correct spelling come up. If your new suggestion is wrong you can then simply retype the word until you get a suggestion which works. Much quicker than hitting suggest 4-5 times and it takes into account the original misspelt word when making the new suggestions. In comparison the version of Read and Write I have, which was released in 2006, didn't even have a suggest option. So much for specialist software. In fact it didn't even have the word dyslexic in it's dictionary, until I point out this omission to them! If there isn't such a word processor available for the Mac, I might consider buying and installing WordPerfect X4 in my virtual Windows 7. However having purchased a Mac, I would prefer where possible to use Mac based software.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Why No Save As Option In The Word Processor

Jul 2, 2012

So any discussion of why Apple would remove the most common function of all word processors in the world, is not permitted. Let's be NICE then.... this is a common fuction that has been removed and it is costing my company lost time in productivity.  We can't find files, we can't sort through "duplicates" and "versions".  Common practicies our employees have used on all computers are now not compatible with three of our office systems.  We upgrade to Lion 10.7.4 to get icloud for phones and ipads, and lose productivity in our office due to lost functions in a word processor. Apparently Apple doesn't want us to think for ourselves. Is there as way to restore this common function to Pages???

Oct 22, 2009

Software :: Finding Lightweight Word Processor Apps That Feature Floating Text?

Dec 11, 2008

I am in search for a lightweight, TextEdit-like app that has the handy floating text insert feature. Freeware would be the greatest, but i dont mind paying a modest shareware fee. I have and use Appleworks still, which has the handy feature by Option-Clicking anywhere you want the floating text, but am looking for something a little more future proof.

I downloaded Bean and iText Express, but I could not find that sweet feature in those apps.

OS X :: HP PSC 1510 All-In-One Not Scanning In SL?

Dec 4, 2009

I was surprised not to find more info on this issue with googling. My PSC 1510 will not scan in Snow Leopard. I know this was a popular printer, so I thought if everyone had this trouble, it would show up in search.Since hp support is built-in to SL, I stopped using the HP scanning software. This printer is listed as being supported by HP in SL. I've tried using Preview, Image Capture, and Print & Fax to scan. The iMac says scanner cannot be found, and my MBP says scanner is warming, and it never does anything. Correct drivers are installed.

Software :: Scanning Within Photoshop CS3?

Jun 29, 2007

I usually do all of my scanning within Photoshop, and yes I do know there are other ways, that's just the way I roll. I have just upgraded to CS3 and cannot scan. The twain driver does not even appear in the 'Import' menu within Photoshop CS3. CS2 still works. I have downloaded the most recent driver for my scanner (EPSON RX510 multifunction), but to no avail. Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone know of a remedy?

OS X :: Using Microsoft Word For Macs - How To Delete A Text Box In A Word Document

Aug 24, 2009

I have a Mac OS X version 10.5.7 i am working on Word 2008 for Mac, version 12.0.1 (080305).

My problem, i created one text box in a document, somehow 2 more appeared. I made the mistake of thinking that to delete the extra text boxes, i simply highlight them and delete them. Silly stupid me, nothing that simple exists and i have wasted an hour trying to figure it out. The help button does squat, barely gives you any info on a text box much less trying to delete it. Does anyone know how to delete a text box in a word document?

OS X :: Free Scanning Software Alternative To HP?

Jul 31, 2009

I have a HP All-In-One C5180 printer, scanner, copier, card reader.Every-time there is a MacOSX update then the scanner no longer responds.I have it connected to my AirPort Extreme wired ethernet, and I access it wirelessly; and also I have tried connecting it directly to my MacBook Pro via wired ethernet also.I don't have a USB cable, and don't want to go that routeIt had worked fine for some time, and like I wrote after some software update it doesn't respond.

I am tired of uninstalling and reinstalling the HP software, in the past it worked to fix the problem, but nowadays this "fix" isn't working for me.What i would like to explore now is if there is a way I can use the scanner with another software, preferably a free one.
