For Macs. Very good tool and you can add your own custom sizes to it. Works well.

that's pretty cool, but I still like my Excel file. It will tell you the full amount of creep in inches and as a percent per page and the full creep of the book.

We've been using percent creep for years, due to the large number of car books and annual reports with crossovers. Regular creep just doesn't cut it.


still, you just can't have enough tools in the shed, so I have your suggestion on my desktop, just in case.

I know this guy, he's a total tool and a creep. The world is an interesting place.

Thanks Joe.  I'll give it a try.

Gotta love the (sole, so far), review on it.   Mr. Grumpy!     :laugh:  I think you better review it, Joe; restore some balance.   :grin:
Am guessing most Americans on forum...er, most of the forum, would give 3/llths of sweet F A about his/her opinion.   :laugh:  Hang on, better get the calculator out...work out the decimal.  Personally, I wish the world had gone octal. Just cos we've got ten fingers...   :rolleyes:

The other side can point out their inaccuracies, but the voter's mind privileges the memory of the original accusation, which was juicier than any counterargument ever could be.)"

No. It's that you can't make anything foolproof, because fools are too ingenious.

QuoteDeveloper is a typical American — assumes the world comes to an end at the border. This utility, potentially useful, will appeal only to Americans who, along with Liberia and one other place I forget, is the only country on earth that still uses insane nineteenth century measurements. America is only 6% of the world. If you live elsewhere, you can forget about this tool.

He has a point, Beck. This is useless for 94% of humanity. I've felt the same way with various tools in web dev when working with code developed by a non-English speaker and having to tweak & fix things endlessly.

Man, you are really off of your game lately. Are you OK?

I hadn't even read the "review". I think some people just need to bitch about some things.

So...for the other 94% of the world. You can open the plist file and change the measurement to what ever you please. Had the 94% of the world bothered to read the text file they would have known this.
