I didn't know that I had to restart to get the settings to take effect. That did it! Thanks very much.

Re: Scanner not selected

The custom scan worked. The preset scan failed. Since I'm just learning how to use Xchange Editor, I may not have captured what you need. Please give me idiot-proof instructions if you need more. Here are five screen shots; hope they are what you need. scanner not selected.jpg Custom scanner setting...

Scanner not selected

I'm trying to scan a document using Editor V 8 build 335 in unpaid mode. I've tried to connect to the scanner using the default (since the scanner is registered with Windows 10) and explicitly setting various options. No matter what I do, I get an error message "PXVLib: Scanner is not selected....

I see that I made a typo. I meant page x of y. I have Exchange Editor on two computers. On this computer the page counters display in the center of the bottom. On the other computer the page counters don't appear. I can't figure out how to get them displayed on the other computer. I'm attaching a sc...

Print 2-sides manually

I have a laser printer that prints one side of the paper. When I have a file created in an application, such as Word, that I go to print there is an option for manual 2-sided printing. All the odd pages are printed, then I take the paper from the output bin and replace it in the input bin, press OK,...

Re: Can't get a document to display continuous single page

As a further test, I reconfirmed that I had set my viewing preference to continuous, exited XChange Editor and rebooted. When I reopen the file, VXhange Editor viewing preference was Automatic, not Continuous.

Re: Nothing happened when I tried to send email

Yes, I'm running Editor 307.2. I went into IE > Internet Options > Programs > Internet programs > Set programs and made Eudora the default for all files and protocols. Is that what you meant by default MAPI? If not, please explain. Windows help had no response to MAPI.

Rename open file

I frequently find myself wanting to rename the file I'm viewing to a more descriptive name. The only way I know is to close the file from the viewer, rename it, and reopen the newly named file in the viewer. Is it possible to rename without leaving the viewer, or could this be added?

Re: Print Dialog Box

I'm running XP Pro SP3. Display set at 1024 x 768. XChange viewer vers 2.0 build 51.0. Print dialog is huge, truncated at top and bottom. Changing display settings is too inconvenient. Is there any other way of displaying the print dialog without truncation?

Changing tool bar layout

I'd like to reduce the number of lines taken by toolbars etc at the top of the screen. "Properties" is on a line by itself. See attached screen shot. There is room on other lists for "properties", but I can't figure out how to move it up.
