Atlantis Word Processor Forum

Robert thank you for your characteristically helpful and courteous reply. I run an online high school - live classes are given by chatroom. I require ALL my staff and students to get Atlantis for compatibility and so I can give support on a program I know so well and find so excellent. Thanks again.

I cannot use the Booklet finction because I can only print single side pages. But Atlantis is clever enough to calculate booklet layout already. So surely there is a way to help me design the pages and print one double page (2 X A5) at a time? So Atlantis shows me I have 8 X A5 pages in my Booklet ...

Hope this is not a dupluicate I already sent this message but it did not appear. How do I change the colour behind the document page? Somehow I changed it to bright brioght green which is hell on my eyes! I checked all the Appearances options in Control Panel but i can't find a setting that has this ...

Robert you are wonderful. I now have a complete system to create "invisible text." Just in case anyone else wants to use this here's how. ---------------------------------------- I set up a Style called Invisible - in this Style font is white so it's invisible, but ALSO as an added sophistication ...

Robert thank you this is a wonderful solution. After writing in I tried doing the Invisible text with macros but the setup is not as user friendly as Style. One last thing - using the Style method only allows the Style to be used in THIS document. I then need to Import it into every other document ...

Dear Atlantis I want to be able to create apparently "invisible text" which can then be easily revealed. (It's for a self test quiz to revise for exams) I thought I could do this by typing in question and answer, then making the answer text white font on white background. Then if my student can't ...

Could we have an update on when tables functionality will be added? I've been using Atlantis over five years now waiting for this. Is it very difficult? Are there special problems? I make all my staff and students use Atlantis and I constantly get grumbled at because it doesn't support tables. Other ...

Thanks greatly Robert. That cleared up a lot.
now at least I know the links I made with http//: SHOULD work.

Hmm. Now I know to use http prefix I tried again and it DID work. Yippee!

I just tried updating Atlantis with a minor upgrade that puts a Copy as html button on the toolbar. But it greys out in most of the docs I open! Also tried a test document displaying links in different ways. I think the html conversion needs me to use http:// BUT that worked only when Atlantis ...

I am compiling some of my Atlantis documents into ebooks. The html conversion on Save Special operates very well on text, colours, highlighting, even graphics - but it isn't picking up on the website links I have in my documernts. Is there something I'm missing? I generally type in a web address ...

Atlantis what would I do without you! Thank you for all the happy years we've been together.

Tiny prob. Recently every tme I type something all the boxes on the status bar keep flashing in a jumpy way. It stops as soon as I click Save but it's very distracting. Hope you can help.

PLEASE put the "insert bookmark" back on the Insert menu AND in the toolbar. It doesn't make intuitive sense to have "insert hyperlink" in these places but not have "insert bookmark" next to it. They work as a pair! I know the Control Panel is powerful but it means a) opening a different admin area ...

I adore Atantis and have used it and recommended it widely since very early in its life. But I just upgraded to 1.6.1.1 - and I can't insert a bookmark so I can't use hyperlinks to places in documents. I rely heavily on these for guide docs to my students. Existing bookmarks work. There is no ...

Since the last update I can only page break using the keyboard (Ctrl+Enter) and can't column break at all. Thank you SO much for the Favourites button. I made a doc today with all my usual signatures and snippets. Very usful Also I have telephone nos, bills, and lots of other frequent use data there ...

Dear darling Atlantis

is there no way to embed a font in a document?
I have lots of nonstandard fonts and I have to stay with boring standard stuff in the infosheets I send out (weep) if you don't do it.

Which files do I need to copy to create a backup of all the preferences/ toolbar design etc ? Atlantis.ats Atlantis.ini INSTAL.LOG MySettings.ats ??? I am making a key backup folder with all my zips, + ini files or other preference storages. That together with the registration numbers list means I ...

The buttons on offer were labelled "Add to Favorites" and "Organise Favorites" so I didnt realise they also gave the list of options.

It's a lovely item - using it every 5 minutes now!

Thank you so much for the Favorites facility (I was one who requested it so I am absolutely deliughted) I am sorry to ask for a little more when you have done so much, but I would like the Favorites link as found under File, to be on the toolbar list. That would mean I could open the dropdown menu ...

Somehow Atlantis has lost being my default word processor so lots of my older files are opening in my previous program. How do I set it to Atlantis.

Thanks I'll try using Esc I am not sure I understand the buttons being "in a pressed state" though. When I want blue text I just highlight the text dropdown the colour list and click blue. Then if I want to repeat the same colour I highlight and click the A button, which is already blue. But it ...
