I would bet there's a few of us that don't even get to take vacations, Mr. Hawaii guy. Sounds like you're really "struggling".

I didn't think anyone could possibly be more arrogant than I am, but I think you win.  :sleepy:

Is there a way to designate a block of text in all caps? I'm not seeing it.

Guess what I'm doing today? :funfunfun:

No, but seriously...The documentation for PDFlib is not extensive. Nothing about it in the manual, no support forum.

Corn, do you know how to set a block of text in all caps? We do biz cards with the person's name set in all caps.

Do I add that under the Custom tab?

All I see is "Shaping" and true/false as choices.

Also, how do I set up a biz card template that imprints on shells? This is my variable text area being blocked with PDFlib, but the resulting PDF will come to me with the shell background. Doesn't help me one bit.

Obviously want the custy to see their complete proof, not just a shell imprint or else the first thing we'll hear is "where's the logo?" :death:

Using the plug-in, the value is entered like in the screen shot below. It could also be entered as part of a larger string like this:

prefix <shape=caps fontname=Arial encoding=winansi fontsize=8.5>

Acro 9 and PDFLib 3.5

I see your "Custom" tab is an expanded arrow. That's where the shape command should go. Is it still not working properly? Also, Nake sure textflow is set to "true," wherever it is on your version. I took these screenshots from a Mac, but I was told to only work in Windows by printlinqs. I guess their server won't recognize Mac stuff, but I can still edit code on Mac as long as I upload (and point back) to Windows fonts.
