If it is a text frame, the text is part of the frame. You should copy the text first and paste it again after deleting the frame.

And what is the problem?

TextMaker has two separate ways to handle images: You can insert an image either as an embedded object or as an image frame. As an embedded object, it is treated just like a letter in the text (so, no text wrapping), as an image frame you have all options to handle it (including several ways of text...

I forgot one point: in the "General" tab, the option "Convert each page into an image“ must be checked. Otherwise, the image files contained in the PDF will be stored separately.

That’s what I wrote. And if the PDF has an image layer and an invisible text layer, both cannot be exported to a single JPEG file because JPEG (as an image format) cannot store text.

File > Export > Pages as... Click "Format", go to tab "General", uncheck "Text Output" and check "Image Output". Choose "JPEG" as format from the dropdown menu. Tab "Image" gives some additional options like resolution and image size. Click...

This is a well-known bug that has already been reported several times: When text wrapping is set to "Square" or "Contour", the distance of the left margin is no longer calculated from the page border (as it should be) but from the frame border. I hope SoftMaker will fix this soon...

No, Balloon doesn’t have lowercase letters. Similar fonts in MegaFont NOW you might want to try are Antigone Compact Italic, Falcon Poster, Franklin Headline Italic, Josephs Brush Italic, Mercedes Serial Bold Italic, or the "Heavy Italic" or "Xbold Italic" cuts of sans serif font...

How did you define the new font in the template? It is not sufficient to change simply the font; you have to change the character style „Normal“ via the "Styles" section in the "Home" ribbon (or Format>Character style in classic menus).

Nifty. You should add this to the „Tips and tricks“ section of your Website.

I have Windows XP running in a virtual machine (without Internet connection) to keep access to a few old and specialised programs, a very old game that I still like and some databases that were published as appendices to some doctoral thesis or other (and never updated or renewed); but I have to adm...

You are right. This function is only available in the commercial version of TextMaker, not in FreeOffice.

The user manual is based on the ribbon interface. You are obviously using classic menus. There the command is to be found at Table > Convert text to table...

You are right. I knew this behaviour from former versions of TextMaker, but obviously it has been changed in the meantime. Now insertion as a picture frame is the standard when dragging an image into the text. So you will have to either convert the picture after inserting it or use the other method ...

That depends on how you insert images. If you drag an image into the document when in Edit mode, it becomes an embedded image. With classic menus, choose Object > New picture... ( not Object > New picture frame...) to create an embedded image. With ribbons, click on the black triangle under Insert >...
