Hi gang,
Well, leave it to a demonstration at Brickworld to bring out bugs in your
program. I always evoke the first rule of frisbee when I give demos: Never
say anything more predictive than, “Watch this!”.

Kevin, I used Lpub 4.0.0.3 to do the instructions for my
Ghostbusters Ecto-1
These Ghostbusters Ecto-1
instructions
Please note the thanks to you on that web page! Really, I would not have even
bothered to try to do and upload these plans if you program hadn’t made it so
easy to do!!

I’m glad it helps!

Lpub 4.0.0.3 worked out very nicely. However I was not able to insert a jpeg
image on the “cover page” and I couldn’t insert a BOM (that I could see it
anyway).
Any ideas what I might have done wrong?
thanks

You can only add a BOM on a cover page. For example:
1. Go to the last page of your instructions.
2. Use the edit menu’s “Add Cover Page” menu item in the main toolbar.
3. Go to the next page (the newly added cover page)
4. Use the edit menu’s “Add Bill of Materials” menu item in the main toolbar.
5. Click the BOM to get the thumb in the middle of the bottom of the BOM.
6. Click and drag the thumb to make the BOM the same aspect ratio as the page
(it looks nicer that way). 7. If the BOM does not fit on the page, use the
“Configuration->Bill of Materials Setup” menu item in the main toolbar. Use the
“Contents” tab to display the scale control. 8. Edit the scale control to
reduce the size of the parts displayed in the BOM. 9. Use the font controls to
reduce the size of the instance counts and annotations. a) change them in the
GUI b) after you click OK, the fonts will look huge (LPub bug alert!) c)
edit the font meta commands to change the size (probably 33) to something like 8
or 9. Don’t forget you have undo.
Step 9 is the tricky part. I’ve got to work on that.
