Title: Possible to download help file as pdf?
Post by: willym on December 21, 2011, 04:51:36 PM
Is it? I find the search feature in the program help unusable. I search for Grid, and it shows me a page about a mile long, and I have to manually search for grid on the page. Must be a PC thing? If I could download the help file, I could search it more easily

Not for QU but there is  for older versions which may of some help but also may confuse! It's on the web site under the older versions of Qimage

Click on the list and use Control F (= find) and enter you search term again. Trouble is, as with any searching, you need to guess the best search term.  ::)

Hi Bill

If you go to the Qimage site http://www.ddisoftware.com/qimage-u/ and go to Support & FAQ and then Online Help there is a list of topics.  Most are not pdfs but if you open each you can copy and paste into Word.  Then you can save the Word documents, search, print, etc.  There are, of course, the excellent videos - not searchable!  I have a Qimage RAW guide saved from 2009, it's out of date but still helpful.  I can't find a newer version.

Better still use a pdf printer like PDF Creator or
Tracker Software PDF Exchange Lite. http://www.tracker-software.com/product/pdf-xchange-lite
Both are free and Tracker Software free pdf reader is much better than Adobe Reader!
