We've been using Redmine for around a month now, but I still am not sure I understand what the distinct uses for Files is as opposed to Documents. They're set up completely differently. So what is the purpose of the "File" module? You can't annotate any information to the files, and you can attach files to Documents, Issues, Wiki pages, etc.

I understand the difference between Documents and Files, but not quite the difference between Documents and Wiki. They are VERY similar, both seem to have the same text editing capabilities. I'm confused when to use which.

Wiki pages (textilized) content is versioned, documents itself aren't. AFAICS you should see documents as holding entities for (static) notes, instructions, specs, etc (e.g. PDF's) which have a category (documents category enumeration), title (required), (textilized) description and can hold one or more attachments and which each can be displayed in order of category, date, title and author.

Now I see the differences between the two but don't see a practical use of such functionality separation, it feels like both can benefit from unification. It's great that documents can be displayed by category, date,title, etc. but it sounds bad that they're unversioned. In real life, the docs get updated in almost all cases (everything you've mentioned - notes, specs, instructions etc).

In Windows 10, what is the difference between %UserProfile%\Documents and This PC\Documents? Similarly, what is the difference between %UserProfile%\Music and This PC\Music? If none, then why the cloning of the same folder under a different name?

Those two are the same folder, and it only appears once. The paths that Explorer shows on the top can be a little misleading- they're meant to make it easy to find files, so a lot of important stuff is omitted. It also tends to be inconsistent, so your Documents folder might show up under My PC or by itself at different times. To get the actual path to the file/folder, right-click on it, select "Properties", and look in the "Location" section. In reality, your Documents folder is probably located at %UserProfile%\Documents.

A recap- Explorer might show your Documents folder in several places, but those are simply shortcuts and not the actual locations of the folder. Regardless of where you find "Documents", clicking on it will take you to the same place.

This PC\Documents is supposed to be a shortcut for the current user that is logged in and links to %UserProfile%\Documents. When a user logs in, its automatically linking This PC\Documents to the real folder at %UserProfile%\Documents.

If you search "How To Geek Remove Folders from This PC", the first hit or two should be to the HowToGeek website (a very good resource site) with instructions on how to hide those extra folders there in the left side navigation pane.

I would like to understand the difference in the results of track changes and compare documents. From my own testing, it looks like most of the changes are shown the same way in track changes and compare documents.

To see what I am referring to, I have attached an extract. You can see three paragraphs with the edits shown. This is followed by deleted versions of the original three paragraphs. combined Health Benefits Analysis cc 9-11-17b.docx

Should the results of track changes and compare documents look the same? If not, how do they differ? Is there a work-around for the problem of entire paragraphs being changed? Any insights would be appreciated.

My question might not have been clear enough. I was not saying that no individual changes can be seen with compare documents. Rather, the issue is that sometimes entire paragraphs are either deleted or inserted rather than showing the individual changes in each paragraph.

I was not clear enough. I am talking about two versions of the same document, not entirely different documents.
Again: Should there be any difference between the results of tracked changes and compare documents? If so, what? What could cause entire paragraphs to be deleted and replaced (rather than showing individual changes)?
What do you mean by individual changes and final changes

I have edited the question to attach an example of what I am talking about. There are three paragraphs showing the edits correctly. This is followed by the original version of the same three paragraphs but they are all deleted. Is this how compare documents is supposed to work or could there be corruption?

Yes, I would consider it best practice to create all of your organizational folders inside of the Documents. There isn't necessarily a problem with creating your own folders at the same level as Documents instead of inside of them, but the Documents folder is for you Documents, that's what it is there for. It is its purpose.

One reason is searching. If you want to search for something among your files, being able to start at the Documents folder and know all of your files are under that is useful. Otherwise, you have to start at the top level of iCloud Drive which would include those app-create storage spaces.

Another reason is browsing. If you want to start somewhere with a new Finder window, starting at the Documents folder level and seeing a list of your organized folders is useful. If you start at the top level of iCloud Drive you will see your stuff mixed with those app folders and other things.

But mostly I recommend doing it because it is "standard practice." I mean you could put Pages documents inside the Pictures folder and videos inside the Music folder if you want. You can clutter your Desktop with a bunch of stuff and put other things in the Documents folder without any rhyme or reason. But if someone asks me how to "get organized" on their Mac, I start with: Put all of your files in folders in the Documents folder.

I see those app-specific folders as a relic of the days where iOS apps had to store documents from an app in its own specific folder. I don't use them. If you have a Numbers document, a Pages document, a bunch of PDFs and so on, all part of one project, I put those all in one folder in my Documents folder, or a subfolder even deeper down in an organized structure.

Michael: That's a big no. You don't want to try that. Having two cloud services control a single folder is a bad idea. It will lead to things getting confused between the services and you could easily end up losing files entirely. If you want double protection, backup with Time Machine or an online backup service.

Can someone explain to me please the difference between the Document/Layout DPI which you choose when you first create a document (I'll refer to it as the Document DPI from here on out) and the Raster DPI which is part of the export options? I'm only interested in exporting to PDF. I know a resolution that any 'Unsupported properties' will be rasterised at on output needs to be set but I'm unsure which of these settings it is and the relationship between the two.

I'm not really clear why a document resolution needs to be set when a document is created since stuff will only get rasterised on output (where there are rasterisation options). So as you can see I'm confused! I'm coming to AP from Quark and Indesign.

I don't know - the image will have a resolution at a particular size (eg 9cm2 wide at 72dpi or 4.5mm2 at 144dpi). I come from a print background so I am aware of the relationship between resolution and physical size. In Quark/Indesign a document has no resolution - images are placed at a particular size and that defines their resolution on output (ignoring any downsampling that occurs when exported). I am not complaining that AP doesn't work like Indesign but I need to understand how it does work.

Thanks John. I'm sure that is wise - in testing I can set my document resolution to a decent number and drop in images of a higher resolution and get them exported at that resolution, which is comforting. But I do like to know all the ins and outs. If possible.

An Annex to the Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation (which established the ICAO) is adopted by the ICAO Council according to particular voting procedures laid out in Article 90 of the Convention, and is binding upon the signatory States.

An ICAO document is just something the ICAO organization has chosen to publish in its Doc Series with an identifying number for ease of reference. Being an "ICAO Document" doesn't in itself say anything about who wrote it or its legal force. For example, Doc 7300 is the Chicago Convention itself, which has a lot of force (but not because it has a Doc number), whereas Doc 9562, Airport Economics Manual is more informative in nature and tries to be persuasive rather than authoritative.
