1. Answer :
    Probably you are actually opening a document file of some other application. In case you are sure that you are opening an InPage document, then its quite possible that on your last save the file was not saved properly. At this juncture you have the option to open the .BAK file and retrieve your document before the last save state.
    If you get the above message (from opening the .BAK file as well), then you can try retrieving only the text portion of your document (without any formatting) by importing the saved file as a text file in a new document. When you use the Import Text menu item and you get a Import Text dialog box, you should choose the file type as Text File (*.txt). This will lead to insertion of some junk characters at the beginning of the document and after 8-9 pages you will start getting Urdu/Arabic/English text. You can remove the junk characters from your document and make fresh changes to this newly retrieved document.
  2. Answer :
    This is because you have not selected the text to which you are applying the font. For all the character attributes (like font change, font size, bold, italic, inter character gap, baseline shift etc.) you will always need to select the text to which you are applying these attributes.

  5. Answer :
    All the objects in an InPage document can be rotated.The rotation is carried out in Object Selection mode i.e. with the Arrow key. Once the object has been selected, it can be rotated by specifying the angle of rotation in the Object dialog or by selecting the rotation tool and rotating the object.
  6. Answer :
    When objects are placed on top of text box containing text, then you can control text run around these objects. By default text boxes and picture boxes have the runaround option ON. That is, these objects when placed on top of text box with text will lead to text getting repelled from these objects unless you choose Run Around menu option from the Format dialog and un-check the Run Around check box. Whereas for graphic boxes and lines, run around option is OFF. Besides these default values, you can specify the distance that text will flow away from the object.
  7. Answer :
    Duplicate enables you to duplicate a group of selected objects in a tabular format. The duplicate dialog asks you information as to number of rows and number of columns in which the duplicated objects will be arranged. You will also be asked to specify column and row gap so as to offset each row of objects by this gap and each column by the column gap. 
    Note that duplicate treats the selected objects as a group and while duplicating calculates the outer bounding rectangle of this group of objects.
  8. Answer :
    Objects can be copied to clipboard, or pasted from clipboard. Cut and Clear both delete the selected objects. Whereas Cut copies the objects to the clipboard, clear just deletes the selected objects. Copy on the other hand copies the selected objects to the clipboard without deleting the objects. Once the objects have been copied to clipboard, they can be pasted by invoking the Paste command. On invoking the Paste command the cursor changes to Paste cursor.
    You can click with this cursor anywhere on the page. All the objects on the clipboard are pasted with respect to this clicked reference point. If your document type is left to right then this point is treated as left top of the boundary rectangle outlining all the selected objects. On the other hand if your document type is right to left then this point is treated as right top of the boundary rectangle.
  9. Answer :
    Once an object is marked as Template then that object behaves as a master mould. You can make exact replicas of the template object by just dragging the template object.Instead of moving the template object, the dragging operation peels off an identical copy of the template object. You would usually make a template object in the pasteboard.
  10. Answer :
    Sometimes there is a need to mark one or more object as Don't Print so as to prevent the object or objects from being printed out. You can do so by checking the Don't Print check box in the Format Object dialog. To reset this attribute you must uncheck this check box.
  11. Answer :
    You can lock an object so as to prevent its accidental movement or deletion. For locking you have to invoke the appropriate object dialog by double clicking on the object or objects and setting the lock check box as ON. Once you lock an object its selection points appear as gray rather than black (which is the case in normal selection).
    Once locked you will not be able to move or delete the object. If you do need to carry out any one of these operations then unlock the object. To unlock a locked object, you just have to un-check the lock check box in the Format object dialog box. A locked object has selection points (handles) that are grey in color whereas unlocked objects have black handles.
  12. Answer :
    A selected object has handles using which the object can be resized. Bring the mouse cursor on top of one of these handles. The cursor shape changes to a Resize ARROW.

    For re-sizing, copying, deleting and changing attributes, you need to select an object. You can select an object with an ARROW cursor. For this, first select the Arrow Tool. If you now click on the object, it will be selected and you ill see highlighted selection points on the object. To select more then one object at the same time, keep the SHIFT key pressed while other objects are selected with the help of the mouse.
  15. Answer :
    To create an object, you will first have to select the proper Tool. All the creation tools display the cursor as CROSS. Now click the mouse in the Document Area and while keeping the mouse pressed, drag the mouse. The Ribbon will show the X and Y coordinates where the mouse was clicked as well as the updated width and height of the object as mouse is moved. When the required size of the box has been achieved, leave the mouse button. You will now get a selected object with size attributes as indicated in the Ribbon.You can also create an object by entering its coordinates and its width and height in the Object Ribbon.

  18. Answer :
    As you move the mouse on the screen, the cursor shape changes to reflect the kind and status of the object immediately underneath. If the currently selected tool in the Tool Strip is a creation tool then the cursor is always a CROSS. If you have selected an Arrow cursor then the cursor shape is always an Arrow cursor. On the other hand if you have selected an IBEAM tool then the cursor shape is always Arrow cursor except on top of the handles of a selected objects, where the cursor becomes an arrow indicating the direction of resize.

    • Select this Delinking Tool: You will notice that all the text boxes on the visible pages will display the linked to and linked from arrows. Thus you can see how a particular text box is linked in a text chain.
    • When you bring the cursor on text of a text box that forms part of a text chain, you will notice that the cursor changes to the 'Break Link' shape. If you now click the text box when the shape of the cursor is 'Break Link', the link will break at that text box. In other words this text box and other subsequent text boxes in this text chain will get separated from the existing chain and the text chain will break into two text chains.
  53. Answer :
    • Ensure that you have created all the text boxes which are to be linked together. These text boxes may be on the same or on different pages.
    • Next, click on the Linking Tool. You will notice that the cursor shape changes to the Cross cursor. And all the text boxes that can be linked will be displayed with small square shaped multi colored boxes. These boxes appearing on the top left and bottom right of your text boxes signify the text boxes to which this text box is linked to. If the text box is already part of a linked chain, then you will see incoming arrow to this box if there is a text box before this text box in the linked chain. On the other hand if there are text boxes after this text box then you will be able to see arrows going out from this text box.
    • To link a text box first you will need to click on the text box to which you wish this text box to link to. Lets call the clicked text box as the selected text box.
    • You will notice that the cursor changes to the linked cursor when you bring the mouse over a text box which can be linked to the selected text box. You can now click on this text box.

You can choose or change the printer driver from either the Printer Setup dialog or the Setup dialog from the Print command.
    In this dialog, you can set the following options:
    1. Choose a Specific or default Printer,
    2. Set Printer Paper Orientation whether Portrait or Landscape,
    3. Set Printer Paper Sizes,
    4. Using the Options button you can setup advanced Printer options.
    The ensuing Options dialog varies from printer driver to printer driver. In general there is a clear demarcation between Postscript printers and non postscript printers.
  70. Answer :
    For Postscript printers, from the Options dialog you can choose the Advanced options button. In this dialog box, you can either send True Type fonts as postscript fonts or as Bitmap. For printing to printer without the downloaded fonts, you should select the Send True Type as Type 1 option.

    If you want to print using already downloaded fonts, you should print through a printer driver which supports the following options. Adobe Default Printer driver or Accel-A-Writer printer drivers are two such drivers. Within the True Type font option set "Don't Send" True Type fonts. Also within the Postscript option check the "Do not download fonts" check box. Now if you print, the postscript file which is sent to the printer does not have font information. It just has the names of the fonts, and the font information it picks up from the printer. This is useful for a newspaper and/or magazine environment where you can download all the fonts you need. You can download these fonts to the printer memory or better still download these fonts to the printer hard disk.

To enter into a Text Editing Mode, first choose the IBEAM Tool from the Tool Bar. Now with the cursor appearing as a dotted IBEAM click on top of an intended text box.
