Thank you! That was very helpful. And reassuring I'll be able to proceed as I'd anticipated.

OK. Here's a simple Scrivener 3 project. Zipped. When I compile as either doc, docx, or rtf, the inline annotations do not show up. Using the same settings as above, when I compile as pdf, they show up as expected. Is there a way to export the compile settings I am using? I see an option on the Comp...

Is there a link to the new topic? I'm unable to find where it has been moved to. Would like to know if I'll be able to use annotations in compiled documents as expected.

Hi. Just found this old thread on a search for [compile annotations]. I am finding that inline annotations are not appearing in the compiled documents when the output format is ether docx, doc, or rtf. When I compile to pdf, the inlines are there as expected. FYI using Version: 2.9.9.8 Beta (984254)...

Thank you, Jim. That is exactly what I was looking for!

Is it possible to search for inline annotations?

I want to locate where in the project these exist, independent of the text they contain.

Thank you.

Thank you, AmberV for that helpful reply. Just the perspective I was looking for. I think for now I'll stay with 1.8 for the projects that were last worked on in that version, with the exception of the one I've already opened in S3. It will make for an interesting reacquaintancing with Scrivener. Lo...

Thank you for this clear and useful info. I'm wondering, what happens if the beta expires before I get a chance to update. Will I still be able to get into it to do an auto update?

What exactly happens when the beta expires?

tks

Hello all. I last worked in Scrivener for Windows some years ago and now need to work with some projects created at that time. I was using version 1.8.6.0, registered. As I recall, there was a change made in the 1.9.x.x update that for some reason led me to hold off on updating, so I never got beyon...

I have a folder where I direct my backups. It is set in Options. After importing a compile setting, the next backups made will the saved to the CompileSettings folder, unless manually changed back to the preferred path, even though, in Options, the correct path is still indicated. I would report thi...

Can I install 1.9 in addition 1.8.6, rather than overwriting the current installation?

Any special precautions, other than the file format changes?

Thanks.

Two compile options would be nice.

An option to automatically open the file upon completion.

When trying to compile to a filename that is currently open, the notification dialog should have a "retry" button that when clicked will proceed with the compile as is.

Thanks, David. Those are good suggestions, but solve the problem at the cost of losing all text (character) formatting, and also footnotes and annotations. Footnotes and annotations actually carry over very nicely between Scriv and Word, but they can't survive, in either direction, a "paste spe...

Are there known page margin and/or tab settings that will let me paste from Scrivener, to Word, and back again, while retaining the same displayed paragraph width? I'm using Word 2007 on Windows 8.1. This is giving me no end of grief. Trying to describe what happens during the round trip is extremel...
