Re: Images vanished

It's a fixable situation, but for longer documents will be time consuming. I found a little file converter (which can do batches) 'PostScriptToPDF' which is working. I did a chapter in about 15 minutes.

Re: Images vanished

I suspect that by 'upgrading' to Sonoma, I have lost years of material. It is not the end of the world, but it puts my publishing schedule a solid 6–10 months behind if I have to recreate all the music examples again as PDFs. The bigger problem are things like complete thematic inventories; one of w...

Re: Images vanished

No luck. I've tried the suggestions of Safe Boot and creating a new user. I am still missing all the EPS/PDF images.

Re: Images vanished

Thanks for the suggestions! I'm just home from a busy weekend travelling/working, but hoping to get back to this issue ASAP.

Best,

Re: Images vanished

Here is a link to an EPS file that was working fine until yesterday morning. Mellel and iMac are up to date. Thanks for the help!

Re: Images vanished

Ok, even after converting the EPS files to PDF they still appear as blank in Mellel.

Re: Images vanished

Could it be that Mellel no longer sees EPS files? I urgently need some help…

Thank you.

Re: Images vanished

I've tried on my work computer and the images are gone there as well. The frames appear, but the content is gone. This is rather desperate for me. Any tips?!

Best,

Images vanished

Dear Mellel Boffins, I've just opened a file (about 21MB) of a monograph I aimed to send the publisher this morning. All of the music examples, which were PDF exports from Sibelius, have vanished. The rectangles (I'm not sure what to call them, 'holders'?) are still there, but no actual content. Is ...

All text in italics on Ipad version of document

Greetings! I'm a long-time (12 years?!) Mellel user and recently got the iPad app so that I can easily access current projects on the road. I notice that if I create a document on my office/home iMac and safe it to the iCloud drive that when I open that document on the iPad all the text is italic an...

Re: Using and changing mentions in headers

I included a page- and a page-style break between the change in running headers and—presto!—works perfectly. Sending my Mellel love!

Using and changing mentions in headers

Dearest Mellel Sisters and Brothers, I have a document (a thematic inventory of a composer's works) during which I would like to change the level of mentions in the running headers. Is that possible? For example: the first part of the document I would like to use level 2 auto-titles in the header—so...

Re: Preserving auto-title format in template

Thanks. Funnily enough, I simply saved a new template and it worked perfectly. I must confess that my old template was from a few years ago, so perhaps their was some dissonance between versions. At any rate, it's all working beautifully now.

Best wishes,

Preserving auto-title format in template

Dear Mellel Wisdom, When I save a template (I name by style or publisher style) it seems to preserve everything except auto-title formats. For example: When I open up my OUP template all the character and paragraphs attributes are there, but when I go to add, say, a subheading from the auto-title me...

Re: Mellel Can't Save Document

What a pity that there is no apparent solution to this problem. Being able to save a document is important.
