Re: Pages and bookmarks. Was: Re: more questions about braille displays
Hello Gabriele, The translating I do is mostly tourist brochures and documents relating to exhibitions, all coming through an agency, so I haven't been faced with this problem. Could you send me an example off list so that I can have a look at what you're talking about?

If you are working on a large document that requires more than one work section to be translated, how did you solved the bookmark problem? Can you use bookmarks on pages? Thanks. Gabriel.

Re: Pages and bookmarks. Was: Re: more questions about braille displays
Hi Anne, morning and thanks for your replay. Before having the iPhone, I was used to read books under Windows on my desktop computer and I felt confortable with Word. When I have to stop reading, from the Insert menu, I dropped down a bookmark in the text and, the next time I wish to continue, I have just to go to that bookmark and start reading again. Since I got my first iPhone, I get used to read on it, with ILike2ReadPro, VoiceDream or iBooks, and when I have to work on some documents for example with translations, I continue using Word under Windows. But now I've switched to Apple totally and I've a MacBookPro as a laptop and an iMac27 as a desktop computer. So, I must use Pages to manage all my documents. The last work I had to take on a large document was about the manual of an iOS application, Seeing Assistant Move. The manual is several pages long and it takes some days to be translated. I need to put a bookmark in order to find the endpoint the day after and continue to translate since that point. In Microsoft Word it's a very easy task to do, but I didn't find the way with Pages. To solve the problem, I put a customized series of characters in between the text, like 9o9o9o and I search for this string, in order to find the starting point. This workaround does its job but it's definitively not elegant! Cheers. Gabriel. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Hello Gabriele, I haven't tried this, but it might be worth setting a Hotspot at the point where you break off.
