Libreoffice draw can edit the text already on a PDF? Does it automatically
adhere to text cell borders aka wrap the text as expected?

For quick, simple edits, I use LibreOffice Draw.
You can open a pdf, move things around, edit text, etc.
When you're done, just choose 'Export as PDF" from the "File" menu.

Re: [PLUG] what is the best way to check an UPS unit for real battery capacity?

2024-01-28 Thread Ted Mittelstaedt
Just reboot the system and hit the Pause key during POST.  The system will sit 
frozen at the BIOS screen drawing power and then you can pull A/C power out of 
the wall.  It the UPS dies no problem.

Hello

Is there any way to check for battery capacity of the UPS unit without having 
to switch off the AC power input? Just curious if anyway while the UPS stays 
online can be done? Once I got caught with practically useless battery capacity 
(lead-acid cells) on an APC unit, because I had neglected to check the 
batteries capacity about once a year or so.

I get a bit nervous when killing the AC power on a live system, although that's 
what the UPS is supposed to protect from.

Is the best way to check done by killing the AC power?
