Irecently installed Nitro Pro 12 for one of my users and when they open a PDF through windows explorer which maps to their Sharepoint site, the user is prompted to "check-out" the document before editing. If they do they can edit and then are prompted to check the pdf back in when saving. This doesn't occur for other users using Nitro Pro and the library is not set to force check out documents. Is this a new function of Nitro 12? I read there is a silent check in/check out but I can't seem to find any preference or options that allow for this. Again the library settings for our Sharepoint are already set to NO for checking out documents.

This is the first Nitro 12 Pro installation I have done in a few weeks with the latest install from the Nitro website. Other users do use Nitro Pro 12 but they were installed with a previous build I guess. Is there anyway to prevent the message? I'm curious why Nitro is prompting to check out the file when the sharepoint library isn't set to make users check out files.


@AllainU This feature is horrid (just saying that to get it out in the open) This assumes that the user wants to check out documents, and if the user does so, and is not familiar with it, it means an administration nightmare finding documents users have inadvertently "checked out" without needing to.


Alternative PDF software (Fox.t) has this option in their Preferences under "ECM Integration" where it shows the word "Sharepoint" and then offers the 3 choices .. Open Only .. Check out and Open .. or Allow you to choose when opening the document.


The ONLY place this "forced" request for "check out and open" option belongs, is on the SERVER side of sharepoint, where even microsoft sets this option to "No" (disabled) by default so that users are *not* required to check out documents.


What in gods name would possess Nitro devs and programers to think forcing this option on with no easy off button is acceptable? when even microsoft has the default as "off" why would your devs cause such a nightmare like this?


*define easy off ?? well when compared to F*xit .. which has words directly recognizable by many users "Sharepoint" "open only" "checkout" "prompt every time" *that* is easy .. not so with Ntiro cause if its there.. then I'm blind.

start serving when been is slightly undercarbonated - is still ver rich and creamy with the nitro. The high psi will get the carbonation up to a good level within a few hours of use while drinking it.


When perfect pints are coming out I become a little more carefull to have gas on only when in use, and usually will bring the psi down to 10-15 just to be safe. Also release a lot of keg pressure at then of the night.


By the end of a keg most of my stouts/bitters etc, end up a little over carbonnated at which time I will either serve at 5-6psi, or just turn off the gass and let the beer push itself through for a few pulls. Degassing the keg as I do this can help get the carbonnation back to where I want it.


I use 5 ft. lines normally and get a perfect pour on CO2. I wonder if I should perhaps use longer lines when serving on beer gas. 10? 15? 20? Thinking 20 since I can easily cut them down from there if needed.


I have PDF form with editable fields that used to work in Nitro 9 but after I have upgraded to 12 I can no longer edit the check boxes. In addition, when I do press one of the check boxes all the writing in other fields disappears. I have noticed these checkboxes work when in Adobe reader X and the same form still definitely works in Nitro 9. I've tried to re save with Nitro 9 and 12 and Adobe reader but I get the same result. It looks to me like some compatibility issue with whatever application originally created the document but I don't know what to change to make it work with Nitro 12. I can't easily re create / re produce the form from scratch and the form has been created by a company that no longer exists so I can't get them to re create it. Does anyone know about using Nitro 12 in some kind of backward compatibility mode?


I found this is being caused by the 'action' in the check box properties were set to 'reset form'. not sure why this wasn't a problem in Nitro Pro 9. The only thing is now if the wrong option is selected I need to un check the box where as it used to auto un tick when selecting the second box. It's better than it resetting the entire form. I've checked the options in Nitro 9 and they all look the same so perhaps it's a bug in V12.


We have previously covered the process of finishing a guitar body and will no doubt do so again in one form or another. So the starting point for this project is a finished and polished body with a nitrocellulose finish.


This project was enjoyable because there was no pressure to create something vintage authentic. The brief was merely a Surf Green finish with medium distress and lots of lacquer checking. The body was a swamp ash T-style finished with clear cellulose sealer coats, a white base coat, Surf Green and several layers of light tint and clear lacquer. All the finishing materials came from Steve Robinson at Manchester Guitar Tech, and we would highly recommended that company.


Much is made of the tonal benefits of wood-to-wood and wood-to-metal interfaces, with neck pockets left unfinished, and the likes of Eric Johnson advocate the removal of finish beneath the bridge area. Working on the assumption that no harm could come from that approach and it may actually result in enhanced tone, I decided to try something new.


The tape had to be left in situ until the finish had cured properly and the cutting and polishing process had been completed. To remove the tape, I scored around the edges with a craft knife then cut across the middle of the pickup rout. I peeled the tape from the outside in to reduce the risk of causing damage to the finish.


I followed the same procedure for the neck pocket, cutting the masking tape just inside the outer edges of the neck pocket . After removing the tape, I sanded away the overspray with a small block. When this guitar is finally assembled, both the neck and bridge will be coupled directly to the body.


I also try to tap the finish strategically with blunt objects and screwdriver shafts. Achieving a convincing look requires variety and randomisation . You can go for larger chips around the edges, and I sometimes use a dental tool to flake off the lacquer. Look for pictures of genuine vintage guitars with the same body shape as you are working on and you will be able to identify the areas that tend to take the brunt of things and copy the wear patterns.


So, on a 50s Les Paul you might expect to see the checking lines going from side to side on the body and headstock. On 50s Fenders, the checking generally follows the grain lines, but by the time of guitars made in the mid-60s, when Fender was using Fullerplast as a base coat, the checking often ran side to side.


Secondly, be mindful of the way you move the aerosol. If the body is held upright and you move the aerosol across the body, the checking lines will generally follow the grain lines. For this project, the vice held the body sideways, and as I moved the aerosol along its length the checking lines formed mostly across the grain. Again, it must be stressed that this can be a fairly random process, but by following these guidelines you may be able to exert some degree of control.


Wear plastic gloves, dampen a bit of folded kitchen paper with the stain and wipe it over the guitar. A little goes a long way, and you should work on small areas until you get a feel for the process.


I leave the stain for a few seconds then wipe off the excess with some clean kitchen paper. The remaining stain can be removed with a cloth and a dab of Farecla G3 polishing compound, and the checking lines will show up beautifully against the clean finish.


Although the stain can work wonders for the checking, when it has pooled up in the dents they can be over-emphasised and the guitar may end up looking a bit grotty. If this happens, dip a cotton bud into some clean white spirit and use it to swab out the dents. Some stain will be left behind but the guitar will look cleaner.


Unfortunately, finishing a body in nitrocellulose can cost 100 or so just for the lacquer, plus it requires a lot of time and careful work. Experimentation is therefore expensive in many ways, so work slowly and methodically. Remember that you can always add to the distress but not take it away.


In almost all cases you should use unique field names when creating form fields. If you use the same name for a field, like a text field, data typed in the field box is replicated for all fields with the same name. The exception to the rule is when creating check box and radio button fields. If you want one check box or radio button in a group to be unchecked as another check box or radio button is checked, you use the same field name. Both these field types have an option for adding an export value. When you create fields with the same name, you use different export values to distinguish one choice from another.


6. Select Options. Choose a style for the check box appearance from the Check Box Style list. Click in Export Value field and add a value. If you have two fields that you want to use as Yes and No responses, use the same name for the two fields and add an export value of Yes in one field and No in the other field. You can also have the checkbox selected by default via the option Checked by default.


Abrupt changes in temp. (and humidity) are the main factors in "weathering". I have a '94 J45 that showed checking when the instrument was only five years old. I have a '92 Martin that still looks like the day it left the factory. So, you can't put a timeline on it.


If you keep your guitar in a controlled environment for its lifetime, the finish would probably never crack or craze. It is the constant movement of the wood, the guitar swelling and contracting, over years that cause the finish to craze. Put a stiff coat on a soft, moving object and the stiff material is going to snap rather than give. At least that's how I understand it.
