Can't Merge Cells when using a table
Hi all; Great software, keep up the good work Can anybody tell me how to merge cells once you have a table. Do I have to do this through the HTML code or is there a faster way to do this using the GUI lior
"Table operations >> Merge cells" does not function
Hello, I try to merge cells in table within Zoho writer. I mark the cells which I want to merge then right click "Table operations >> Merge cells" and nothing happens. Every time when I right click the marked cells become unmarked. How does it work? I appreciate your help.
Cell Properties/Merge Cells/Split Cells missing
Is there a support in Zoho writer to manage individual cell properties to manage table cells to split them and merge them? This is a very important feature in any word processor right?
Merge Table Cells
Hi All, I can't see any method to merge some table cells, and no recent posts about this. I must be missing something on the toolbar. Thanks for any assistance! Kevin
Cell background image/picture
I did a search and didn't find anything that hinted that this might already exist. It would be awesome if we could set background images in a table cell--an image in the background that can have text typed over it. And/or, it would be nice if we could set gradients for background colors of cells. Thanks for considering -Mikey
problem with saving docx in Zoho Writer and view it in Google Viewer
Hello, We use Zoho editor for editing docx file. We use GoogleDoc Viewer to view the docx files (because it is much faster than Zoho Viewer). We found that when saving a docx file using the Zoho writer, it changes the file’s structure in such a way that GoogleDoc viewer cannot show it properly. Opening the documents using MS-Word, still seems to work fine, though. I attached 2 files with an almost identical content – one is a normal docx file saved by MS-Word app and the other is the same document
Working OpenOffice Plug-In Now Receives Error 500
Greetings! I am running LibreOffice 3.5.4 on Maya Mint Linux (Ubuntu 12.04) and for several weeks was successfully up/downloading documents in testing OpenOffice Plug-in 0oo3.0.0gd (http://code.google.com/p/ooo2gd/ ) when suddenly it stopped operating with Server Error 500 and mentions of some apikey ticket errors. The plug-in's author is hard to reach but while I do and just in case, would you know whether Zoho recently changed anything regarding plug-in access to one's files? Thanks for any suggestions
Font will not stay
I have just started to use the writer and when I go to change font and size it keeps jumping back to arial. What is going on here?
No Longer an Insert Auto Field for Page Number; Hanging Indent
Older forums have suggestions for inserting a page number. However, I cannot find that option in this current version. Also, is it possible to add a hanging indent. Thank you.
Zoho Writer 3.0 Missing Insert Auto Field Page Number
Is there a way in the latest release of Zoho Writer to add an auto field for page number? I don't see this menu option anywhere. Also, is it possible to set a hanging indent? Thank you.
(important addition to my previous post. Do not change useragent if all works)
If copy/paste works, not change useragent; if copy/paste works and you changed useragent, copy/paste will not works; if this situation, just change useragent again as in my previous post. (MODERATORS, please, add this post to the end of post https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/community/topic/solution-how-to-copy-and-paste-in-zoho-writer-when-ctrl-c-and-or-ctrl-v-not-works )
Saving document unchanged.
We have an application that takes a document template and merges it with data from our local server side database. We then open the document in zoho writer. The user can opt to print it out or simply save the document back to a saved area. The problem is that if Zoho does not detect any changes to the document it will not save it. One must perform some operation on the document, such as adding a space or some other extraneous formatting. This should not be required as the document is not necessarily
Insert Custom Stylesheets in Writer Document
Hi Folks, Here's a tip for advanced users of Zoho Writer who wish to dabble in adding custom styles/css to their documents. Currently you can add custom stylesheets to your documents in a couple of ways: # Click on the "Insert" tab, and the choose the option "Insert Stylesheet" from the menu. A pop-up will appear on the editor prompting you enter the URL of a stylesheet on the web. The style/css defined in the web url will take effect on the particular document in which it is inserted. Please refer
Zoho Writer, as WebApp in Google Drive: Security & Permissions
Having installed Zoho Writer as an App in Google Drive, then: Immediately prior to first use (of Zoho Writer, from within Google Drive) is naturally a screen, requesting permissions to objects & operations. Take a look at this Permission Request screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/9q5Hu.png , where I've expanded the questionable requests for access & operations granting. Unless I get some good explanations on why Zoho Writer (being a wordprocessing web-application) should basically be allowed to do
Losing connection to save
This happens occasionally but a lot today. When it goes to SAVE, it says Unable To Connect. When I go to reconnect, it will not and it all stays greyed out. It takes me forever to reload the page. I can then work on it for awhile, but when I stop and then restart to work, it loses the connection. There is nothing wrong with my connection, so it must be on your end. COuld you check this out, pls, or tell me what if I'm doing something wrong.
Error (CSC_200.1.1)
Regardless of OS or Browser, whether Hardware acceleration is on or off, I get this error. I cannot edit any documents in Zoho Writer. I love all the Zoho products and now use Zoho Mail over Gmail. I would like to replace Google Docs with Zoho Docs, but with all the issues encountered over the past months, I cannot make the switch, Zoho Docs is simply too slow and too prone to error.
No web view in Zoho Writer 3?
Hi! I was playing around with Zoho writer 3 and noticed that there's no "view as web page" function to switch the view to the current default zoho view. Is this feature going to be implemented in version 3 or is going to be removed forever? If so, may I know why? Thanks!

How to set Settings/Default View to "Web View"?

Import from Skydrive is required
Dear zWriter Team, Similar to the 'Import from Google Docs' feature that you have in your menu, it would be great if you could also have a 'Import from Skydrive' feature. Skydrive is just gaining momentum and has glaring bugs including missed out usability testing too. ---- Deepak Vasudevan http://thamizhththendral.blogspot.com/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/deepakvasudevan
forced to use IE and MS Office??
I wish the mail merge feature would allow us to use the Chrome Browser instead of forcing us to go with MS Internet Explorer and MS Word or Office. I do not use any of those products and I find this a major impediment to using ZOHO CRM. Since the link with Google apps and mail is neatly engineered, it seems only natural that the mail merge feature should work with Chrome. I use Open Office and Word Perfect and would be happy to pay a fee for mail merge to function with one or both of those programs.
Microsoft Plugin Error
Dear Zoho, I recently downloaded your Microsoft Office plugin. I am using Windows 7 and Office 2007. The plugin seemed to download fine, however, when I try to login to Zoho from the plug in I keep getting the following error message. I have tried saying yes and no to this and I get the same result either way. After this it will just say, "Authentication failed. Please check your ZohoID and password." I am not having any trouble logging in using Firefox. I would really appreciate it if someone can
Adding images to a document
I am trying out Zoho and when adding images to Zoho Writer file there were two options for the file location; 1) Upload 2) URL Why can you not grab one from your Zoho Documents folder? Currently you would have to download the image from the documents folder and then upload again creating a second copy on Zoho's servers. Currently seems a waste of time and server resources..

Cannot delete shared document
There are two shared documents in my "shared documents" area, both of which are shared from "demo@zohowriter.com". Anytime anyone edits these documents in the Zoho demo area, I get an email. How do I "unsubscribe" from these shared documents, or "unshare" them?

Is upgrading to version 3.0 safe?
Trying out the new version, everything I could do on Version 2.0 works OK on 3.0. But what do I do with the documents that I have on 2.0, for example the document with this as its NOBAND version? In the Version 2.0 editor, it looked just like the public version except that comment icons were displayed. When I now try to open it, however, I am presented with a seriously distorted document, shown in the attachment to this post with the threat: "This is how your document will look like in the new editor"
Zoho Writer "finish and merge" greyed out
On my login I can see the Finish and Merge button and can see the final letter, but the other users can't. They can open a template that I created but the Finish and Merge button is greyed out for them. Is there a setting I need to turn on to allow them to use this feature? They are starting the same way I do...we pick a lead and from the more actions choose mail merge. It then prompts us for the letter template to use and brings up zoho writer. I can see the Finish and Merge button and use
Zoho Writer and Opera
Hi, I am using Opera browser ver. 9,64 and last time I have registered on Zoho but I have problem with Polish charsets (I am from Poland).

When I want to write alt+a=ą should appear ą but all the text is deleting and finally apears ą. The problem is with Opera only because IE and Firefox works fine. Could anyone help me? Regards Karol

Cut and paste within Zoho writer
If I cut and paste a paragraph with an image inline with text within a document, when I paste it, it will not retain the inline image and I must go to MODIFY and set the left/right alignment. If I cut and paste into a gmail, it WILL retain the inline position. It will NOT retain it even if I cut and paste into a new document. Will this be fixed?
UPLOADED 2010 MS WORD OPEN WITH NULL ONLY
OK. for some reason my previous post here did not save. I upload MS WORD Docs to Doc Manager. Upload is successful. I open to edit it, and it display NULL with this message But I can download it and it opens in MS WORD perfect. Kinda defeats to purpose of an online editor if you cant edit. I hope this saves this time, and get corrected ASAP as I have a demo of ZOHO to clients next monday 08-13-2012. Thanks Bill Johnson computergarageohio
