I'm pissed as fuck
What the hell Zoho! Always the same goddam problem. It takes time because the simplest things just don't fucking work. Today it just took me 3 hours to complete and send a 1page privacy letter to a client. And you know what 99% of the document was already written before it ever got into zoho. So it took me 3 FUCKING HOURS TO FORMAT SIGNATURE LINES ON ZOHO WRITER. AND THE REASON I'M EVEN MORE PISSED IS BECAUSE THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN 3 DAYS JUST FORMATTING ALONE TOOK HOURS. THE FIRST TIME I THOUGHTPossible to change table cell background color?
Hello, Is there a way to change the cell background color in a table? I see that it is possible to change the paragraph background color but not the color of the entire cell. Someone asked this question a number of years ago but it wasn't answered. I assume that means it's not possible, but wanted to ask. If not possible, any chance you're working on it becoming possible? Thank you!Help. Save button didn't save?
I was working on a document and hit save several times throughout my work. I can only seem to pull up the old, unaltered document. I'm not seeing where to open the file that contains the altered document. I've tried every button. The formatting doesn't make a lot of sense. Can someone please help me find where my document is store, if stored it is? I really need to find this. Thanks for the help in advance.Tip #03: Using Writer Offline to work on your documents from wherever you like.
Take your laptops and iPads to wherever you like—like a long flight or a silent park, and continue working without worrying about connectivity. Writer Offline lets you create new documents and work with your most recent documents without an internet connection. Once you're reconnected, documents you've created and the changes you've made are all synced to your account immediately. And the best part? It works on all major browsers (and not just Google Chrome!). To enable Offline Mode, go to the OfflineOutput to Sign through automated Zoho Forms generation
Hi, A customer fills in a ZoHo Form which triggers the generation of a Writer document. The result should be mailed back to the customer by ZoHo Sign. how can I fill in the email-field from the zoho form in the Writer Sign output field? thanks in advance! regards, JanDocument Navigator

And I did set the required information on it such as email , could the following be done : 1/ Enter email and it will send to customer email , not open directly 2/ Add the email link to Zoho CRM leadTip #02: The road to distraction-free writing
Writer is equipped with tools to give you the perfect writing experience. We've kept the menus and tools that appear minimal—so that when you're writing, it's just you, your thoughts and nothing else. While Writer is designed to be distraction-free by default, here are some ways you can take it up a notch: Night Mode Love working in the dark? Then you'll love Writer's Night Mode too! It lets you continue writing while keeping it easy on the eyes. Simply click on the moon-shaped icon on the bottomTip #01: Using conditions to tailor-fit your document content for a wider audience
Why create multiple documents with similar content when you could do that with just one? By inserting conditions to documents, you can easily control how your document content is shown to multiple recipients. Let's consider the below scenario. Tom, an HR has just finished interviewing 200 candidates, out of which 50 were selected for the next round. It's his duty now to send all 200 candidates personalized mails informing them if they were selected or not. How would he prepare 200 personal mailsBackspace Key
I'm not sure if this is just an intended feature of Zoho Writer, or if it's an actual issue--I looked for other similar cases, but couldn't find anything the was directly related to my problem--however, when using Zoho Writer, the backspace key seems to not do anything. It will not remove text from the left or right side of the cursor, and will not even remove highlighted text. The delete key works fine, but I find it very inconvenient not being able to remove text to the left of my cursor, and wasPossible to lock collumns?

Hi, I've been working on some templates for invoices and offers. How do I set the margins? I've searched for the topic in the forum, but only found old threads from years ago. In the Knowledgebase it says that it is not possible to set own margins right now but it is in development. Does anybody know when this feature will be added? Or is there any other way to set up my own margins? Thanks in advance for your replies, Thomascolumn width in inserted tables
It would be nice if column width in inserted tables in a zohowriter document could be resized easily. The right clic trick and the calculation of the % or pixels is complicated and need trial and error. Hugo dagconsultoreiOS Writer app — cursor does not stay in view as I type
When I type more text than fits the viewable area of the screen, the text does not scroll up so that the cursor/insertion point remains visible. As a result, I must stop typing and swipe up on my screen to see the current line. After I type another sentence or so, the cursor/insertion point once again falls below the viewable area and I have to repeat. In the web version of Writer — and indeed in any word processor — the text automatically scrolls up as you continue to type, keeping the cursor/insertionTimes New Roman in Zoho Writer?

I've recently been trying to use the Zoho Writer iPad app and every time I use it, the interface seems to take a long time to enter the text I'm typing.

Hi, I'm setting up a document merge in "writer" with existing data from "sheet". The sheet is full of formulas to populate the cells for automation purposes. The problem is Zoho Writer doesn't make a difference between a cell with a formula without a value and a cell with a value. Is it possible to merge only a selection fom the database? With a filter?

Zoho Writer can now sort text, number, or dates. You can quickly and easily sort bulleted, numbered, or plain lists of text. To sort text: Highlight the text using the mouse. Then, go to the Format menu, and click or right click the mouse in the editor to find the Sort option. The Sort window will pop up. A field is always selected as soon as you place the cursor in the field (i.e., paragraphs/ list/ table). Select Ascending or Descending. Ascending order organizes the text in alphabetical order,Document damaged - cannot revert to older version
