What transforms the two hyphens for a dash, and how to stop it?

When you type - at least in applications such as TextEdit and Mail - two hyphens is transformed into quadratins. I don't want to do. I type freely - and em-quadratins myself, and when I type two hyphens I want to stay like that (for various reasons). What changes two hyphens into em dash and how it stop?

TextEdit > Preferences

put smart dashes in the party Options on the new Document tab

close the current document and open a new one.

    Hello

    Where are the best sites for high-level and how information about various things in Oracle?

    Some examples of things:

    * spa

    * spm

    * db replay

    * Resource Manager

    I need a place high-level

    and also a place of step by step.

    For example, I look at these sites:

    www.Oracle-base.com

    www.psoug.org

    Thank you Roger

    Part of the problem is not so much finding sites that have articles on Oracle, that is to find reliable websites with this information.  When I search my site of certification for resources, I find a significant number of people who have 'technical' Articles on Oracle. However, many of these blog posts have simply no useful information.  It is not even that they are wrong so far as article does not include anything that is not declared more clearly and in detail in the documentation.

    That said, a site you have not mentioned above is the Oracle Learning Library.  There very often an excellent material that is very closely linked to the themes of the certification:

  • LaserJet professional M1210 MFP Series: Find the right software for a Mac and how to install it

    I recently changed from a PC to a Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite.  My printer is a Laserjet professional M1210 MFP series (although the info on the printer says Laserjet MFP M1217/mfw).  I don't know where to find the drivers and the correct software and I don't know how to install this printer on Mac.  It will print, but no other features work such as scanning or fax.

    Can someone direct me to the correct software and the process step by step on how to install the software for Mac?

    Thank you

    Maria

    Click on the Apple icon, then select about this Mac.
    Click software update, and then click the Store from the top of the indicated window menu and click on reload the Page.

    Be sure to install any update HP or Apple, then check for the difference.

    If no HP update are available, manually install the package below:

    Once the latest drivers were Installer go to System Preferences > printers & Scanner and click the sign plus sign to add to the fax printer queue (it can take 30 to 40 seconds for the additional fax queue appear in the list of printers you)

    Finally, you can scan using Capture of Image after completing these updates, so you can install and use the HP Easy Scan scanning application:

  • What is the meaning of 'temporary internet file' and how can I find particular cookie or file belongs to the particular website?

    Please answer

    Hello

    Thanks for the display of the query to the Microsoft Community. I will certainly help you to find the answer to your query.

    The folder Temporary Internet Files (or cache) is used by Windows Internet Explorer and MSN Explorer to store the contents of the Web page on the hard drive of the computer for a quick consultation. This cache permits Internet Explorer or MSN Explorer download only content that has changed since you last time a Web page, rather than download all content of every time that the page is displayed.

    You can also read the article and check if it helps. Here is another article on the temporary internet files.

    Hope that information was useful and let us know if you need help in the future about Windows. We will be happy to help you.

  • What is the best practice for a 'regular' Server VMware and VDI environment?

    What is the best practice for a "regular" VMware Server and VDI environment?   A single environment (ESXi and SAN) can accommodate two if it is a whole new configuration?  Or even better to keep separate?

    Enjoying inputs.

    Quick and dirty answer is that "it depends."

    serioulsy, it depends really two things budget and IO.  If you had the money for two without then buy two and don't have to host your server environment and the other for VDI desktop, their IO profiles are completely different.

    If this is not the case, try to keep each type of use for their own dedicated LUN.

  • What are the best options for the composition of math in InDesign CS4?

    What are the best options for the composition of math in InDesign CS4?

    I tried a few versions of the composition of mathematics test. All have their advantages and disadvantages, but I can't decide on which the plugin/script will be the best in the long run (in taking account of the ePub and MathML).


    So far the two best seems to be InMath (if it becomes compatible CS4) or Math + Magic Pro.


    The biggest pro of InMath is editable on the screen, but it seems to have some risk: http://InDesignSecrets.com/InMath-update-with-new-reader-functionality.php


    Math + Magic Pro works well with CS4, but need of equations to modify in the window of their plugin, and because they are EPS format. The file size and the ability to work with a digital player disappeared.

    And MathType seems pretty useless...

    Someone at - it had positive experiences?

    Not exactly the kerning, but you can move blocks wherever you want with the arrow keys. And you can change the spacing between the elements by changing the spacer between them. There are also defects of spacing.

    Batch edit can be something again. I use 6.0, and I see that the most recent version is 6.5.

    I had problems with files EPS of Mathtype, which may include a preview, but do not include fonts. So, I opened each equation of the word with my default settings (they automatically change the default fonts, spacing, size, etc.), copy, paste in Illustrator and save as have. So when I'm finished, my equations are always vector (if that's what you mean by text).

    Microsoft has chosen to implement a version of Mathtype dumbed-down as the editor of Word equations for many years. So for me at least, long term has already been decided. There are several things wrong with Mathtype, but given the choice between the use of Mathtype to * convert * equations and using InMath or mathemagiques to * recreate * equations, I'll take Mathtype, warts and all.
