1. The actual answer: You'd need to buy Adobe Acrobat to do this. This is the way Adobe makes their money... They have a good format for portable documents (Portable Document Format), and they distribute the reader for free. But the program to generate (or modify) .pdf files is rather on the expensive side.

 

or 2. The substitute answer: Print out the sign. Open Microsoft Word or any other word processing program, put it into full screen mode, and make a guess as to where on the page and how big you want your name to appear on the sign. Then run the paper through the printer a second time, printing the document with just your name in the right place. It might take a couple of tries to get the name in the right place. If Laura were game to give this a try, she might even consider posting a Word document with a dummy name in it, that could easily be downloaded for this purpose!

 

Hint: For your trial and error, just hold up both pages to a bright light to see where the name lines up. This will keep you from having to print more than one copy of the nice sign.

Well, I seem to be a sucker for something the least bit geeky... icon_smile.gif You can download this rtf file which should open up into Microsoft Word just fine. There is a text box in the right place (at least for my printer) with a dummy screen name that you can change to yours.

 

Laura, please feel free to take this file and move it to the cruisecritic web space if you like.

 

You may be able to open it with a direct click, or if not, then try right clicking on the link and doing a "Save As" to your local hard drive.

 

Cruise Critic Sign Name

 

If the position is wrong on your printer, click near the name so you can see the borders of the text box, then right-click on the border and edit the properties. There should be a "Position" tab which you can adjust to tweak the final location. Hopefully it will work fine for most if not everyone, just as it is.

on the 6.0 version there is also a button to "snapshot" part or all of the document - it copies the selection and you can stick it into publisher or word and make a text box with your name in the right spot before you print the file.

Great door signs our CC group had them but the cabin attendants took them off the doors stating they are a fire hazard and all hallways need to be free and clear of flamable materials.

 

Just an fyi

Laura:

Thanks! I just printed out the door sign. Lokks great!

 

Theron:

Thanks also! Your trick to run the sign through MS Word worked 100%. Lined up exactly!

 

LittleBit:

You know your probably right, but since I upgraded to Version 6.0 I really have trouble finding editing tools now. (I liked the old verion better icon_frown.gif

 

out2sea:

What party-poopers, eh?

Well, I'm going to put the sign up anyway, and if they tear it down, I'll ...just...just...put up my spare !!!! icon_razz.gif

I'm not certain, but I believe you can buy a standard sized pack of sheet magnet paper at an office supply store. If you printed it on one of those, they would be hard pressed to justify taking it down, as I've seen several different magnetic signs on doors, indicating things like "oxygen prsent" or other similar things.

 

May be a little more expensive, but might be worth a try. Or... yeah, you could just print out 7 of them... one for each day! icon_rolleyes.gif
