Hi Richard: Sadly, I haven't had to work with those a lot, and I've barely begun to make friends with Pages. However, there are some tutorials, including Ricardo's "Apple to the core," series which I believe may address this. If you search Macvisionaries archives, I'm almost certain there have been discussions about it. Sorry I can't be more helpful. Carolyn On May 27, 2011, at 12:30 PM, richard watson wrote:
