Title: Steve's Patterns Front Page
Post by: northie66 on July 16, 2010, 08:23:10 pm: Since the software didn't work, Steve had said he was going to change his pattern pdf files so that the first page had a picture of the project on the front. Anyone know if he's done this yet?

Thanks!

Have a nice day.

The Premium was easy to set up for the first page but the basic I can not set up at all.
Any help on this matter please.

Post by: BilltheDiver on July 19, 2010, 08:15:21 pm: True Janet, but it might have something to do with how it displays the thumbnails for the files and it is the thumbnail that gives you the picture of the first page. Personally, when I downloaded one of Steve's patterns I just deleted the first page because he always had a photo of the project on the 2nd page.

Post by: BilltheDiver on July 19, 2010, 11:42:39 pm: Guess you got me there. I do have the full version. Never realized the reader wouldn't allow page deletions.

Post by: Merlin on July 20, 2010, 12:18:28 am: Yeah right, but full version or not one computer I can see the preview the other computer I can't.
So I stand by my earlier thread "Home Basic agin Home Premium".
Has to have something to do with it, oh well I think I will stick to scrolling, but then I not that flash with that either.

Do you have the "view" on each computer set to thumbnails? If one is on thumbnail and the other is on icons, that would cause the problem. Just a guess.
