Have to get this off my chest.I think the entire Forums layout is bad. I had to search forever to figure out how to post in the Adobe forum. I thought I was logged in, as at the top right it said "Welcome, Jerry Mann." But apparently that is not good enough for the Forums page: you have to log in separately in the upper left of page. And it was not clear that I had to do this.The courtesy of a note that says, "Log in to Adobe Forums to post a reply!" would be very much appreciated, but way too much to ask for, obviously. Riduculous.And furthermore, spell check should automatically highlight mispellings, not have to search for the button to turn it on.AND furthermore, I tried to "Submit product  feedback" (bottom of page) and this took me to Jive's site, but there  was NO WAY to comment there.Wonderful.

In the mid 1990's I purchased my 1st digital camera a kodak DC120 after trying out many.   At that time Kodak had its own system and the images had a .KDC extension.   I gave the camera away along with the software and have over the years upgraded my computer many time.   Now I find that I am unable to open these old images with .KDC extensions.   These images are in the 10's of thousands and to lose them would be a real tragedy for me.   They have no historical value except to the family.I do not want to loose these old images, but at this time, I have no way to open and batch convert them to a more current file extension like .JPGI have purchased several softwares in attempt to find the solution to my problem, including contacting Kodak.   To date, I have had no success in my quest. Does anybody still have the software disk which came with the DC120 Camera, or know of a solution to my problem?

At least it doesn't for me. I'm using Windows Vista. Is anyone else having this problem?

Why is the latest post in this forum dated 2 years ago?

I can no longer change the font in my messages from the almost illegible tiny bad copy of Helvetica that someone chose for these forums, to one of the fonts that have been specially designed for screen reading like Verdana. I can make and see the change on screen, but text reverts to Arial on posting.Safari/Mac; Explorer and Safari on Windows 7.

HiAnybody know a quick tool to convert Type1 fonts to Open Type? How is the leagel aspect? Are you allowed to do it?M;ic

I have been working with adobe premiere for quite a long time and recently a problem has developed that has rendered the program almost useless.Every time I go to export a completed sequence the program becomes unresponsive and does not even give me formatting options let alone allow me to use the media encoder.What could be the cause of this new issue?

Why does the Jive software change my "underline" tags to "span" tags when I post, thus eliminating the underline I wanted?

Hi. For when Adobe products under GNU / Linux native? Why Adobe is not interested in this OS?Greetings.

Can anyone give me some advice about using email with the forums.  Is it a good thing to do?a) Could a new thread be started with an emailb) If you post with an email, does it expose your address?c) Is there any kind of forum help page out there?ThanksMartin

In response to many help I had on the forum I changed my avatar to a photo of myself to be less anonymous as I feel indebted to those who spent time for me. However after three weeks I'm more anonymous than ever! Perhaps this will prompt a fix. I designed my photo via Ph Shop to meet the upload requirement. Isn't this funny, someone told me that you can upload to Face Book in full format from your digital camera.If this is true I wonder why the Avatar is not able to function the same way?

I though all text formatting has been disabled?Now see this post http://forums.adobe.com/thread/759827 - how on earth did the poster get that giant font size in there?  (I cannot even see anything when I look at the HTML source.)

In the last 2 days I have posted a reply and then the reply does not show up, or the reply shows up and then a latter visit fo the site shows it is not there.Then several hours later it shows up again.Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi I wonder if it's my settings or something within the forum, misspelt words get highlighted but no alternative shows up to correct it with R mousse click. I'm desperate as I have already been expulsed from France in 1969 because of my poor spelling abilities and fear this will happen again in Australia or in this forum if I don't get spelling aid. Thank you for the opportunity.MM (waiting for my AVATAR)   (I'm using Google Chrome)

I just received notification of the new Adobe X.  I was hoping that the one issue that I had with Adobe 9 Pro had been addressed, which regarded the SDI vs. MDI interface.  From the discussions that I have found, it appears that the MDI interface has not been re-enabled (even as an option). I am currently running Adobe 8 Pro and one of the features that is most used is the 'side-by-side' comparison of documents <CRTL-SHFT-L>.  And, I do not have multiple monitors where I can drag one image onto another screen.My IT department installed Adobe 9 Pro on my computer as one of their standard updates.  I had it installed on my computer for about an hour.  When I attempted the side-by-side function, it opened both documents, each with their own set of toolbars and a separate taskbar, which now made the document I was attempting to view too small to be reviewed.  After discovering that the MDI was no longer an option, I requested to have Adobe 8 Pro reinstal

Hi,I want to know whether the adobe club is for free. I read that the registration doesn't cost any money. What is about the service of the adobe club? Is it free, too?This week I will buy a student version of cs5. When I have to upload the scan of my student card?I hope you can help me. I'm really new here.Sincerely,RazooN

Why cant I seem to be able to insert code with the insert raw html? I have tried many times and when I click submit, the html is gone. I always wind up using the "quote" feature to insert code. Am I doing something wrong? It really is annoying.Also, another annoying "quirk" of this forum is the fact that when I do start a discussion or even when I might answer one, When I type a few characters, the cursor does a hard enter automatically. I can be in the middle of a word and all of a sudden I am on the next line, which forces me to backspace so I can continue typing the word. Just little things like this that makes me wonder whats going on. I would think that little bugs like this should be worked out by the administrators of this site forum.I belong to quite a few forums, and this is the only one I have issues like this with. But, this is the best resource for Coldfusion, so I wish someone would address these issues. Thanks!

I have been attempting to create a CSS rule that assures each new paragraph will fall directly under the one above it without a line break in between. So far I have had no success. I want my pages to look exactly like those of the a traditional book.

Hi, I noticed this morning that searching the LiveCycle Designer forum seems to be limited to today. My grasp of Latin is limited so I am not going to attempt the plural of 'forum' . Suffice to say, it seems to be across the board. Is this a temporary 'feature' or a permanent clear out?Thanks,Niall

Hi,I would like to make an ebook cover. I heard flash cs 4 would be good for this.Any help greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance,Kidd in Paris

Every time I edit a post (mostly for spelling and/or typos) I must edit the post twice. First edit is made and Update clicked.. I return to the tread to see the post unedited. I edit again.. click Update... return to thread THEN the post is updated.

How can I change my Screen Name (kd2357) in forums.adobe.com to the different Screen Name I have set in 'Adobe account information' ?

Using Firefox/Mac, I entered this forum as usual by using my bookmark. To my surprise, I was not greeted by the Adobe logo, but by the clearspace one:Same thing when I changed to Safari. Hoping this could be a change for the better, I went to the bottom of the page, but was disappointed to find we are STILL using version 2.5.16 of the software.I then I moved to my Win machine, and this is what I got there both in Explorer and Safari (Win 7):So I am more than a bit disconcerted as to where we really are. And as to what is happening.

for someone at Adobe to tell us just what the hell is going on

Well, I was using the forum yesterday and then came back today and it has all changed!I had trouble with login on Firefox but when I try it in IE it works.Also I notice that one screen is muddled in Firefox, here's a screen shotMartin
