Reciept for a war time gift?
A friend in the US sent me a scan of this:
http://www.norbyhus.dk/misc/aw.jpg Why should the receipt for the packet (gift) be sent to Hamburg. Have any of you an explanation. (The Danish news group dk.fritid.filateli is a bit dead at the moment! so there is not much help to get) TIA! -- Mvh Toke Læs om Ejnar Olsen og Søllestedmærkerne samt om trusselsbrevet til kong Fr. 8! http://www.norbyhus.dk/ |

If any of you want a rough machine translation (into English) of the article, send me an e-mail (subject: War-time-gift) and I'll return a 2 Mb Word file. It's certainly not a perfect translation but it's easy to understand.

Do you want a print of the secured PDF-document?
You can make a print if you: 1. Open Word. 2. Open the PDF-document and ajust the size so you see page 1. 3. Hold down the ALT-key and press the "Print Scr"-key (you have now copied the ACTIVE window to the clip-board). 4. Click on the page in word and then right-click and choose insert. Now you have page 1 (picture) of the PDF-file in the Word-file. 5. Insert a space after the insertion. 6. Go back to PDF-file and scroll down so you see page 2. 7. Hold down the ALT-key and press the "Print Scr"-key. 8. Click on the page in word after the former insertion - right-click and choose insert. 9. Repeat 6-8 as long as there are new pages in the PDF-fil. 10. Save the Word-file - and/or print it. :-) -- Mvh Toke Læs om Ejnar Olsen og Søllestedmærkerne samt om trusselsbrevet til kong Fr. 8! http://www.norbyhus.dk/ |

Printing/saving anything from the screen. Was: Reciept for a war time gift?

............... 1. ALT - Prt Scr 2. Paste to any graphic program (the old MS Paint will do the job) 3. Print the whole or extract parts of the window and do with them what you like. Hi Victor, Here is a powerful small piece of software, FastStone Capture, a shareware (also sold at 19.95 $) : http://www.faststone.org/FSCaptureDetail.htm What is quite cool is that you select on your screen the rectangle to copy (without having to crop the entire screen later on). It includes also a very useful tool to capture an entire scrolling window not totally visible on the screen ! (For information of my French speaking friends, exists also a French version - or translation : I don't recall - of this software) HTH -- All the best, Pierre Courtiade to answer me, please replace NOSPAM by my family name |

Victor Manta, PWO, AIJP Another tool suggestion: If you have Office 2010, you get a great data-organizing tool called OneNote. (It's been available since its 2003 version, but starting with 2010 it's now bundled with EVERY Office 2010 package, from Home & Student through the top-end Enterprise package.) I've been using OneNote since the 2003 =beta= and I pretty much LIVE in that package. Among other features, OneNote has a system-tray component that assigns the Windows-S key combination to take screen clippings & store them in a OneNote note. I've found OneNote very useful for keeping track of all sorts of information, since it's all automatically indexed and immediately searchable. I keep information about my stamp and radio hobbies in there, along with professional information, since it's easy and quick to search the entire system with just a few keystrokes and clicks. A free 60-day eval version is available for downloading at http://office.microsoft.com/onenote. (And just for the record: no, I don't work for Microsoft. I have no connection with the company whatsoever except as a customer.) -- //Steve// |
