While this problem can be solved with a workaround, shouldn't Mellel be able to properly (and completely) render any font, making whatever adjustments are necessary to solve both the superscript and the italics problems? As I have also stumbled into this problem now and then I would be delighted if...

Could it be that all App Store purchased apps put their stuff into a special folder because of the sandboxing? This is at least my guess. Maybe you can check out ~/Library/Containers for the relevant stuff?

Good luck!

I think this crash should be fixed by upgrading to 3.0.2

Do you want to start footnote numbering anew on each single page (this would sound quite unusual to me) or do you want to restart the numbering for different chapters? If the latter, then you’ll have to use section breaks to achieve this…

But how can I remap the F1 keys? I have those F1 keys already mapped. Hmm, actually I am not sure how to remap the keyboard shortcuts for character style variations – and if this is actually possible. The other keyboard shortcuts can be changed in Styles > Edit Style Sets… but one does not have acc...

Have you tried to export the image in .png format? In contrast to jpg this is a lossless format but it still offers pretty decent file sizes. I used this for my last book and had about 150 png files embedded without any problems. (They were all greyscale, so the file sizes weren't that big anyway.)

Also it seems to be highly unlikely that Apple would not keep a copy in the local filesystem, since users need a fallback mechanism when they do not have a network connection (and they'll continue to do so for many years to come). Nonetheless: the way Apple developed its approach to this seems to re...

This sounds very much like an issue that the Redlers should look at, I would recommend sending them a copy of the file. (If it is too big to mail it and you don't have a dropbox account or a server you can upload it to, then the Redlers will surely find an alternative for you.) At least I would want...

In Mellel, the best way to change the style of individual characters or words is either through character styles or through character style variations. The way I do it is to set up basic character styles that include all the variations that I need (i.e. bold , italics , etc.) and then apply these st...

Would certainly be useful for me!

Yes, that would really be a great feature!

But the problem (as Declan suggests) is that neither of these allows a paragraph style to be imposed. So there's no quick way of imposing paragraph styles on text generated in some other application. And of course Mellel doesn't bring in paragraph styles that are already there when it opens an rtf ...

It would probably best if you send this as an e-mail to support@redlers.com so that you can be sure that they notice this issue and maybe get back to you if they have questions.

I would really like such an option too!

Backspace or delete is referring to the standard keys on your keyboard. Backspace is the one in the upper-right corner of your keyboard. (The delete key does not exist on all keyboards, it shows a crossed out box and deletes the character in front of the cursor.) If you do not want to use the keyboa...
