Book Synopsis Take Control of PDFpen, 3rd Edition by : Michael E. Cohen
Download or read book Take Control of PDFpen, 3rd Edition written by Michael E. Cohen and published by alt concepts. This book was released on 2021-05-03 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edit and enhance your PDFs easily with PDFpen 13! Version 3.0, updated May 3, 2021 This book tells you how create, edit, and enhance PDF documents on your Mac with PDFpen 13 and PDFpenPro 13, and on the go with PDFpen for iPad & iPhone.n These days, an ever-increasing amount of “paper”—contracts, tax forms, bills, reports, and more—comes into our lives as PDF files. We generate this virtual paper too, since it’s so much easier to save a document as a PDF and send it to a colleague via email than it is to print and send via fax or email. To read, edit, and manipulate all these PDFs, you need the appropriate tools and skills. Given the high price of Adobe Acrobat DC Pro, many Mac users have turned to Smile’s affordable PDFpen apps to help them sign PDF forms, handle scanned documents, make changes in existing PDFs, create new PDFs from a variety of sources, and to export PDFs to other file formats (including Word and Excel). With Take Control of PDFpen, you’ll learn how to do all these tasks and more on your Mac with PDFpen or PDFpenPro or on the go with PDFpen for iPad & iPhone. If you haven’t used PDFpen before, this free book is an excellent way to find out what it has to offer. TidBITS members can save 20% on all Smile products purchased through the Smile cart, including PDFpen 13 and PDFpenPro 13. To learn more, visit the Membership Benefits page. To access the coupon code, make sure you've logged in and click through from the Your Member Benefits page. Take Control of PDFpen begins with a guide to purchasing options: PDFpen versus PDFpenPro, from Smile versus the Mac App Store, and the advantages of the iOS/iPadOS version. Next, you’ll meet PDFpen with an overview of the PDF format and a tour of the interface. With the basics out of the way, highlights of what you’ll learn to do include: • Add and remove pages, and combine pages from multiple files into one PDF. • Mark up a PDF with highlights, comments, editing marks, and more. • Compare two different parts of a PDF with the Split View. • Edit a PDF by fixing typos, adding text, formatting text, and redacting confidential text. • Scan a document into a PDF, and make the text editable with OCR—with single or multiple documents. • Add photos or scans to a PDF quickly with Continuity Camera and an iOS/iPadOS device. • View and work with OCRed text in the OCR layer (PDFpenPro only) • Add clickable links, headers, footers, page numbers, and images. • Annotate a document with lines, shapes, text, and callouts. • Make a clickable table of contents (PDFpenPro only). • Add a watermark to each page of a PDF. • Password-protect a PDF. And (PDFpenPro only), prevent others from printing or editing a PDF. • Turn a PDF into a formatted Microsoft Word document, or (PDFpenPro only) export it in Excel or PowerPoint format. • Reduce the size of your PDFs. • Create blank PDFs with stationery. • Add a digital signature with DocuSign (PDFpenPro only). And, you’ll find directions for working with PDF forms: • Fill out forms with ease. • Add a handwritten signature. • Apply a digital signing certificate. • Print just form entries on a pre-printed form. • Create an interactive PDF form (PDFpenPro only) that can collect data and send it to you via email or the web. You can add an interactive signature field, which makes it easy for the form to be signed online. An appendix describes the useful AppleScripts that ship with PDFpen. This ebook was created in collaboration with Smile, with PDFpen's developers tech editing the book.

Book Synopsis Embodiment and the Arts: Views from South Africa by : Jenni Lauwrens
Download or read book Embodiment and the Arts: Views from South Africa written by Jenni Lauwrens and published by Pretoria University Law Press. This book was released on 2022-11-21 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the publication Embodiment and the Arts: Views from South Africa presents a diversity of views on the nature and status of the body in relation to acting, advertisements, designs, films, installations, music, photographs, performance, typography, and video works. Applying the methodologies of phenomenology, hermeneutic phenomenology, embodied perception, ecological psychology, and sense-based research, the authors place the body at the centre of their analyses. The cornerstone of the research presented here is the view that aesthetic experience is active and engaged rather than passive and disinterested. This novel volume offers a rich and diverse range of applications of the paradigm of embodiment to the arts in South Africa.

Book Synopsis Teaching Politics Beyond the Book by : Robert W. Glover
Download or read book Teaching Politics Beyond the Book written by Robert W. Glover and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-11-22 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To teach political issues such as political struggle, justice, interstate conflict, etc. educators rely mostly on textbooks and lectures. However, many other forms of narrative exist that can elevate our understanding of such issues. This innovative work seeks new ways to foster learning beyond the textbook and lecture model, by using creative and new media, including graphic novels, animated films, hip-hop music, Twitter, and more. Discussing the opportunities these media offer to teach and engage students about politics, the work presents concrete ways on how to use them, along with teaching and assessment strategies, all tested in the classroom. The contributors are dedicated educators from various types of institutions whose essays span a variety of political topics and examine how non-traditional "texts" can promote critical thinking and intellectual growth among students in colleges and universities. The first of its kind to discuss a wide range of alternative texts and media, the book will be a valuable resource to anyone seeking to develop innovative curricula and engage their students in the study of politics.
Download or read book Flung Out of Space written by Grace Ellis and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW 100 NOTABLE BOOKS OF THE YEAR A NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW EDITORS' CHOICE NAMED A BOOK WE LOVED BY NPR A fictional and complex portrait of bestselling author Patricia Highsmith caught up in the longing that would inspire her queer classic, The Price of Salt Flung Out of Space is both a love letter to the essential lesbian novel, The Price of Salt, and an examination of its notorious author, Patricia Highsmith. Veteran comics creators Grace Ellis and Hannah Templer have teamed up to tell this story through Highsmith’s eyes—reimagining the events that inspired her to write the story that would become a foundational piece of queer literature. Flung Out of Space opens with Pat begrudgingly writing low-brow comics. A drinker, a smoker, and a hater of life, Pat knows she can do better. Her brain churns with images of the great novel she could and should be writing—what will eventually be Strangers on a Train— which would later be adapted into a classic film by Alfred Hitchcock in 1951. At the same time, Pat, a lesbian consumed with self-loathing, is in and out of conversion therapy, leaving a trail of sexual conquests and broken hearts in her wake. However, one of those very affairs and a chance encounter in a department store give Pat the idea for her soon-to-be beloved tale of homosexual love that was the first of its kind—it gave the lesbian protagonists a happy ending. This is not just the story behind a classic queer book, but of a queer artist who was deeply flawed. It’s a comic about what it was like to write comics in the 1950s, but also about what it means to be a writer at any time in history, struggling to find your voice. Author Grace Ellis contextualizes Patricia Highsmith as both an unintentional queer icon and a figure whose problematic views and noted anti-Semitism have cemented her controversial legacy. Highsmith’s life imitated her art with results as devastating as the plot twists that brought her fame and fortune.

Book Synopsis Digital Signifiers in an Architecture of Information by : Pablo Lorenzo-Eiroa
Download or read book Digital Signifiers in an Architecture of Information written by Pablo Lorenzo-Eiroa and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a new critical relationship between computation and architecture, developing a history and theory of representation in architecture to understand and unleash potential means to open up creativity in the field. Historically, architecture has led to spatial representation. Today, computation has established new representational paradigms that can be compared to spatial representations, such as the revolution of perspective in the Renaissance. Architects now use software, robotics, and fabrication tools with very little understanding and participation in how these tools influence, revolutionize, and determine both architecture and its construction today. Why does the discipline of architecture not have a higher degree of authorship in the conception and development of computational technologies that define spatial representation? This book critically explores the relationship between history, theory, and cultural criticism. Lorenzo-Eiroa positions new understandings through parallel historical sections and theories of many revolutionary representational architecture canons displaced by conventional spatial projection. He identifies the architects, artists, mathematicians, and philosophers that were able to revolutionize their disciplines through the development of new technologies, new systems of representation, and new lenses to understand reality. This book frames the discussion by addressing new means to understand and expand architecture authorship in relation to the survey, information, representation, higher dimensional space, Big Data, and Artificial Intelligence – in the pursuit of activating an architecture of information. This will be important reading for upper-level students and researchers of architecture and architectural theory, especially those with a keen interest in computational design and robotic fabrication.
