Thanks again! Much appreciated.

Can you help me, please, with the puzzle. I copy your post, paste it into Word, and then try to open it with Across Lite 2. I get a message that it's corrupted. Am I doing anything wrong? I have a Mac.
-
Copy and paste into a plain text file (NOT a Word document). Use Across Lite to open that file and you'll be good to go.
-
YAY! Thank you so much. I was using Word and saving it as a .txt file, but obviously that didn't work. I'm saving directly in textEdit now. I have two versions of Across Lite -- "Across Lite" and "Across Lite 2." Nothing would open in "Across Lite 2," which I assumed was the newer app. After checking, I found that it's quite old. Everything opened in the newer "Across Lite."
I've got some catching up to do.
Thanks again. My day is complete.
-
BJMcBean: I'm also on a Mac. This worked for me. Copy the text, paste it into a Word file. Make sure there are no extra lines at the end, and do a Save As.. choosing File Format: Plain Text (.txt). Then try to open it from Across Lite.
-
Thanks. I did get it to work and have been sitting on my butt and catching up ever since :)

Has anyone got these to work using the iPad version of across lite? I made the text file on my computer but it won’t load in the app. The ones that are on the archive seem to be a binary format.
-
Copy and paste the puzzle source to a text file on your PC as you've been doing. Open the file with AcrossLite on your PC, and save it locally as a .puz. Then email that file to yourself - it will open fine on your iPad.

For Tshaner's question:
I think the iPad version of Across Lite can only open .puz files. For this reason you need to do the preprocessing on your machine running MacOS, Windows, or Linux.
Copy the puzzle source to a text file there, right/context click, and select "open with". Among the choices you should see Across Lite. Once the puzzle opens, use "save" to create the .puz format locally. Then use email or other transfer methods to get the .puz file to your iPad where it should open fine.
This is a lot easier to do than to describe!
-
Thanks so much, Glenn
-
Finally got this to work when I gave up on the ipad. Just for grins...why don't we just post the .puz file? Any legal restrictions?

@TShaner doesn't seem possible to upload attachments to this server

Finally got this to work when I gave up on the ipad. Just for grins...why don't we just post the .puz file? Any legal restrictions?
That's kind of the concern for posting .puz from my end. There's no attachment capability here, so posting PUZ would require uploading to another host. Technically, that would make whoever would do that into another distributor, which might run into legal issues. There's always the possibility of getting permission, but the distributor would have to abide with whatever the limitations are (like keeping 7-10 days worth, pay some money, etc). We don't even know the requirements cruciverb is placed under. The question of permission would be sketchy in general and probably involve a lot more fuss than necessary, IMO. At least in posting the text versions to the forum, one can still argue that it's "cruciverb.com" distributing them instead of someone else since the text resides on their server.
Can't say I know how "on-base" I am in thinking like this. I could throw PUZ up on my dropbox pretty easily and link here, so it's not much a technical issue as a legal question I don't know the answer to.

Hello -- Thank you so much for posting these! Now that I've figured out how to convert them to .puz files, I'm getting my fix. I'm not an LA Times puzzle addict though. Really. I can quit any time I want. ;)
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but where are these even coming from? I mean, if you have a source, might anyone be able to also access them there?
Thanks again for picking up the slack. The LA Times puzzles are the only reason I subscribe to Cruciverb too.
-
When the main .puz feed is broken (as has been the case more days than not recently) Glen9999 accesses the puzzle in xml, html, or pdf format from the LA Times site and then uses brute force or a script to build the .puz source which he posts.
I humbly do the same thing when he is away from his desk, which happens once in a blue moon. But his postings almost always are there shortly after midnight, so he's the man.
