Blurry Text Question

I got a new computer for work, but my text looks quite blurry.  (Makes me sick when trying to proof.)

I screwed around with the monitor settings to no avail.  Does anyone have any idea what I need to do? 

I will soooo appreciate any tips or suggestions.

Thanks!

A note about the blurry screen...my friend has a monitor like that and I definitely think its the monitor!  But....what did help some is to decrease the width of the screen itself.  Basically, there'll be a black line about an inch in diameter on either side of the screen...dramatic difference, though still not crisp.

Once again, it seems that you could ask all 10,000 strong we are supposed to be and probably get 10,000 different answers to what MQ pays/does not pay for, BECAUSE, there just is no consistency across the board and different management give different answers to all of these questions. 

Just like the DQS manual, there SHOULD be a one for all/all for one manual with rules, etc set in stone..just not the multiple language instructions like we see in any manual these days....enough of that going through my brain right now

one of your My Documents files in your PC just plain VANISH?  I had a spelling reference file I'd built over many months just plain disappear, except for just a couple of lines.  It's so WEIRD!  I've done a search of the hard drive, checked the Recycle Bin, etc.  But it's nowhere to be found. I hadn't backed it up because it was still a relatively new file for me, and there was more I wanted to add to it first.

So my question is this:  Is there a way to retrieve or restore an apparently "lost" file? 

IT V Pro is an expander program that works with almost all word-based programs running on any Windows platform.

You can import abbreviation files from other programs (such as AutoCorrect) and it also comes with 55 built-in glossaries to help get you started.

For more information on IT V Pro, please see the link below.

I can give you some info on Instant Text V Pro if you'd like.

The most popular features of IT V Pro include the Importer, the Compilation feature, the Includes feature and Continuations.

The Importer takes abbreviation lists from other sources, such as AutoCorrect, and imports them into IT so you can continue using them without having to start creating a new list from scratch.

The Compilation feature is used to create personalized glossaries by scanning saved documents on your computer and pulling out the most frequently used phrases and words to instantly compile a customized glossary in seconds.

The Includes feature allows you to use more than one glossary at a time.

And the Continuations feature is a feature that brings up what you are likely to type next in your sentence. So for example, if you were to type "The patient", IT will then suggest what you are likely to type next based on what you've typed in the past.

For more information on IT, please see the link below for a short product presentation.

IT is virtually limitless so you never have to worry about over-loading it. You can have one large glossary (abbreviation list) or you can have several small customized glossaries which you can use all at the same time using the Includes feature.

You can choose from a long list of Expander keys, including the spacebar.

With Instant Text, you do not need to buy the program twice. The license agreement is based on a per-user basis, rather than a per-machine basis so you can install it on more than one computer as long as you are the only one using it.

You would not need to set up your expansions twice either. The Instant Text glossaries are simply text files that can be copied onto your other computer. You can also import any abbreviation lists you have created in other programs, such as AutoCorrect, into Instant Text so you can continue using the expansions that you are used to.

Did you know that you can hide the "pop-up windows" in Instant Text?

Instant Text's Importer converts PRD lists with a few clicks, and Instant Text V Pro can be set up very close to the way PRD worked. 

Just FYI

I used ShortHand for a few years but my friend recently turned me on to IT.  I ABSOLUTELY love it.  There is no guesswork in remembering your abbreviations for your expansions.  I love how you can ask it to go through your files and it makes expansions based on how frequent you use something.  Now that I have tried both I don't think I would go back to shorthand.  Instant Text is WONDERFUL!!

cc:

It works great with EXText and does the 2 spaces after a period and colon thing, too. 

Insta Text can be purchased for less than $180.00??????

anyone use an inexpensive expander?
