m00gle Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Hi there,I'm working on a translation project that would display a text in a foreign language, its phonetic pronunciation and its translation. I would like that these three kinds of text alternate line by line, I mean: on the 1st line the 1st kind, on the 2nd the 2nd, on the 3rd the 3rd kind, and again 1st, 2nd, 3rd kind, and so on.I've tried doing it using a 3 rows table, but it doesn't behave as I would like.Could you please help me finding a way of doing this? Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dencandy Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 I assume you are using Word with Windows. If so do you know about the Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator (HERE) ? It enables you to work with different virtual keyboards instead of having to use the tortuously slow insert character feature. Unfortunately, it's much too complex for a simpleton like me to understand but by patient searching with key words I was able to download a little ready-made utility to enable me to work with English and Pali keyboards.The task you want to accomplish is fairly common these days & there must be ready-made packages available for free if you search for them. I also suggest browsing through some of the Word user groups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hb_Kai Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 OpenOffice is more powerful than MS Word, you may be able to do it using that.OpenOffice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 You can modify table properties / row properties until it does / shows exactly as you want. Can you put a screenshot so that we can see what the problem is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m00gle Posted November 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Hi,Thank you for all your replies. I've found a software that does almost what I was looking for (it's a tibetan software since this is the language I am working on), so it will be ok.See you later !m00gle.
