Problems editing and formatting a book
Why do the fonts appear distorted on the Newton Press screen?
The required fonts, Espy Sans, Geneva, and New York, are installed when
your install the Newton Press software. Check that you have not removed one
of these required fonts from your System Folder. If you have, you can install
the software again to re-install the fonts.
I set a tab for some text, but the marker has disappeared from the Tab window.
When you set a tab, it only applies to the currently selected paragraph or
paragraphs. If you click elsewhere, or select another paragraph, the tabs for
that text appear.
Why can’t I draw a border around or invert a single word in a paragraph?
You can only invert or draw borders around entire paragraphs, not selections
within a paragraph.
When the Go To page dialog box appears, there is sometimes not a final page listed.
If you have recently added or deleted information to the book and Newton
Press hasn’t completed laying out all pages of the book, it cannot display the
last page number.
I’ve selected my entire book, but I can’t make the changes I want.
When you choose the Select All command from the Edit menu, you can only
make font, font size, font style, and alignment changes to your book. Newton
Press software requires that you make other formatting or editing changes on
a page-by-page basis If you are adding text to create a document, you can also
format the text in the original application before you add it to a Newton book.
