Titles and Instructions in Across Lite or Compiler
« on: December 29, 2018, 12:09:32 AM »
So this is a newbie question, but how do you get Titles and Instructions to show up on PDF exports from Compiler?

Also, when you send a puzzle to the NYT, do they want you to send a title? As for including Instructions, any formatting suggestions would be great, as I've sort of been winging it the few times I've actually had any.

I'm not sure exactly what you're talking about.  You can specify a title pretty readily in Across Lite Text as well as "notepad" data, but I can't say exactly how to do with Crossword Compiler.  But it about would have to be pretty easy.

Also, when you send a puzzle to the NYT, do they want you to send a title? As for including Instructions, any formatting suggestions would be great, as I've sort of been winging it the few times I've actually had any.

As far as "including instructions", I can't say I know what you're talking about.  As for titles in the NYT, they only accept those in Sunday submissions (the 21x21 grids).  The rest are untitled.

When you're exporting to PDF, I believe you can put instructions or notes in the HEADER and select that to include in the export.
