Re: Syriac: How to enable kashida
I'm afraid that at the moment there is no support for Kashida with Syriac We should probably enable this.

Re: Snow Leopard - not related to Style Sets or fonts
An upgrade is indeed the only option here. I don't think you should worry about the added bells an whistles. When we add features we try really hard to make sure that they don't get in the way and allow you to continue using Mellel as you did (unless you actually want to use them). If you don't care...

Re: Typing Speed in a not-so large document is very slow
Are you using very long paragraphs? If so, then it might be the reason for the bad typing performance. Otherwise it may be worth checking, maybe its a bug. If you send us the document we will be able to investigate and fix this issue.

First, please note that crash should be reported to us (redlex) directly, the crash information is not useful to anyone but us and chances are that a few people will be able to help you work around a crash here (while the could, of-course, help you with other problems related to actually working wit...

Re: graphics being resized when file opened
It's embarrassing to admit but this is indeed a new "feature" of Mellel 2.7.1 where images less then 12x12 points are resized to the minimum.
We are working on fixing this feature and revising the limitation to 2x2 which I hope no one will find problematic. This fix will be in Mellel 2.7.2

Re: Mellel 2.7.1 is here
Please report crash directly to us. Please attach a crash report (the crash reports are located in ~/Library/Logs/Crash reporter/, there should be a file with "mellel" in its name)

Re: Dissertation page numbering
I'm not sure I follow. The header and footer "eat" the space inside the page margins, the margins are the same for all pages. The actual text will have less room, of course but I don't see any mention to the margins in the "spec" you've posted here, I only see that the page numbe...

Re: Missing Style Sets
~/Application Support/Mellel/Style Sets is not the right path. It should be ~/Library/Application Support/Mellel/Style Sets
This folder must exist after Mellel has been run (unless your user folder is read only or something).

Re: Dissertation page numbering
On pages with major headings (e.g., the first page of a chapter), the numbers should be centered at the bottom as on the preliminary pages. On all other pages, they should be placed flush with the margin at the top right corner of the page, three-fourths of an inch below the top edge. This actually...

Re: Placing graphics
There is some trouble under tiger but it should only effect using the "skip" wrap for floating image (rightmost). If you're experiencing something different, please contact our support so we can check this. A fix to the Tiger issues and others is in the works.

Re: Garbled Persian text in Snow Leopard
We received another complained for problems with Arabic under Snow Leopard. Upon further investigation we've found that Snow Leopard contains a faulty version of the font "Geeza Pro" which might be the source of these problems and others. If you have access to an older version of Mac OS X ...

Re: Garbled Persian text in Snow Leopard
As far as I know you cannot show arabic with Verdana or Garamond, at least not with the versions that were supplied by Apple. It is possible that you were led to think that you were using these fonts because Mellel does some silent font substitution. This means that if you select some text in a writ...

Re: Mellel 2.7 is out
Paul, Mellel 2.7 should work on a PPC machine. Try downloading the whole thing from our site (www.mellel.com) and then try to run the program from the disk image (which means there's no risk of erasing your current copy of Mellel). It looks to me as if there was just a problem with the upgrade proce...
