How to print crop marks, but keep the cut as A4 paper
I was asked to create a brochure, although I normally do web development. So I installed InDesign a week, with no prior experience. I did created the brochure, created a PDF high resolution (using export) and sent to printing, assuming that it would be sufficient. It didn't: they must "impression of brands" (says my client), I'll assume that is crop marks.
So I thought that everything I could on works bleeding and slightly modified my design to accommodate that (I got a few horizons towards the edges). But the question I have now is that I don't know how to create a PDF file with the right dimensions: A4 for the resulting page and crop around her landmarks.
My Document configuration is set to A4 size (not counting the bleed). It is in the mm, so 210 x 297 mm. The purge is set to 3 mm on all sides. Slug is set to 0.
So I'm going to file > print (in PDF), under Configuration to scale to 100% and marks and purge check "of crop marks. But the problem is that my design already covers the entire area of the A4, so the crop markers to add 'outside' of it. It does not, because "Paper size" corresponds to A4, as well as crop marks are not printed, they fall outside the print area (if my design is focused; it is top-left, I lose the right and down). Now, I can force it to print crop marks using "Scale to fit" - but then of course my page which is no longer not A4; evolving just everything down so that the crop are in the edges of a regular A4 format. But at least I see pretty brands he creates then.
I know that I need to print on A4 oversize, but I can't figure out how to get that. I could fix it manually by adding a number of mm to the width and height, but I read everywhere that InDesign is supposed to do it automatically. So I think there is an option somewhere that I can't find.
So my question is: where is the option to automatically increase my 'paper size' when printing to PDF, based on my configuration Document as well as the area for bleeds and crop marks?
(this seems a simple question that I am surprised, that I can't seem to Google an answer to this...)

This is your mistake. Use file > export... and choose Adobe PDF (Print) from the drop-down list type or file > Adobe PDF presets and choose the correct preset in the list based on that to your printer. Under the control of marks and bleeds box to use the settings of purge of paper and boxes for the brands you want - for sure, guides of crop possibly as well information page, and bars of color or brand registration request printer.

Windows mail - how to remove the attachments, but keep the body of the text
I use Windows Mail. I get e-mails with attachments that I want to throw, but keep the body of the email. Tried several options, but nothing seems to work. I have seen a few posts here and advise to send the email to yourself and all that. Is there a better way to do it?

My OEX program (www.oehelp.com/OEX/) has a function that will remove attachments (and save them if you want) messages with a click of a single button that is much faster than to try to do it manually. It has a number of other features as well.

I would like to bring to the text from Word (and the web) which is already a hypertext link in InDesign. How can I do it while keeping the links active?
Whenever I have to copy and paste from the web or Word it removes hyperlinks. And when I try to do in 'Place' ing a Word document in my InDesign project that it retains formatting with it, the rectangles around the text.
I have the latest version of InDesign.
Any help is appreciated.
Copy-paste might not include the shaped. A regular import using square is the best way.
The rectangles around the hyperlinks are just to indicate that they are links - they do not print, but they appear in your PDF.
You can delete them by double clicking on the hyperlink in the hyperlinks Panel and select "Rectangle Invisible" as the type.
In general, Word formatting of hyperlinks - blue text, underline - with a character Style. If you want to remove or change the formatting, all you have to do is to change the character style. My experience, however, is that you need to check all the hyperlinks because no reason apparent, sometimes they appear in the document without the character style.

Substitute CellRenderer of the list but keep the default background color
I set up a custom CellRenderer class to apply a different font when rendering a list. But the default background color disappeared as well. It was a pure white when the custom CellRenderer class was created.
How could I apply the custom font for a list, but keeping the default background of display (dark and light gray on the lines of even / odd)?
Thank you very much for your help!
Implemented as a cellrenderer alternation. Then simply change the font.

Cut the background noise but keeping the narrative
Hi people,
I know I can create an audio mute with Actions button but I can put up an act conditional that will cut only the background sound (music, for example) but keep the blade and the sound object play?

You can not exclusively mute background music, but you can stop the background sound on a slide with a narrative (audio slide) or audio of the object.
