Hi. I'm a newbie, just starting to try to learn html, and Dynamic HTML Editor is one of several programs I'm trying out. I have a very long document that I made in Word. It's about 13,000 words. I want to make a web page out of it. Well, when I try to copy and paste it into Dynamic HTML Editor, I only see a tiny amount of text, maybe one page out of about 70 or more pages in the document. Where's the rest of the text? I can't figure this out. If you could explain it to me, that would be a good start. I can see even from the small amount of text that appears that all of the formatting was retained when I pasted it in, and that's something I'm looking for --most programs lose most of the formatting. Can you explain to me why I'm only seeing a tiny portion of my text? Thanks.

Hello arvo, Dynamic HTML Editor can manage a maximum of 90'000 character for a single label object so if your text if longer split it into more parts ;-)

Hello arvo.

I have no direct solution for you but having a page with so many words is designer wise never a good idea. If you want a good design that people are actually going to read you need to keep the length of your pages to about 1 or at most two times a normal piece of printing paper (here this size is called a4).

If the text is longer than that you would be wise to create more pages and link those together so people have to click a link to go the next page. See it as a book. You go from page to page if a book consisted of one long page people wouldn't read anything:-)

For an example of what I mean look on this page:
