Je suis en train de migrer tous mes documents Canvas en svg. C'est là où on se rend compte de l'avantage d'un format non-propriétaire. Quand Canvas sera complètement non fonctionnel, je serai bien avec mes documents Canvas !
I suggest that after you install Snow Leopard, do this Canvas reset I posted a long time ago, which will fix crashing when saving, improve slow speed and other problems, and might be all that is necessary to run Canvas after upgrading:
1. Open Canvas and make a note of any custom settings you've made; position of palettes, document settings, etc.
2. Go to Configuration Center and choose Personality Manager, no need to choose anything, but you can if you want, click OK. A message will come up, click OK. This will reset Canvas to a clean install.
3. Quit Canvas, then re-launch it. It will act like it was installed for the first time. Go through the start up windows, then restore your custom settings.
4. Quit Canvas to lock in your settings.
Tips to keep Canvas running well;
Never choose a document from the File menu or the Open command, this is what causes Canvas to crash during saves. Put important documents on the Dock or sidebar of the Finder window, or go directly to a document with the Finder and double click it.
In Configuration Center, click Color Calibration, then in Mode, choose Canvas CMS. If you do choose Kodak, then down in Preview, leave it None, any other choice will slow Canvas to a crawl.
Do not use the View Fonts choice in the Text>Font menu. This will make Canvas unstable and crash. Also, if you use the Type palette, close it as soon as you make your choices (a bit more work, but prevents crashes).
After printing 2-3 times, the keyboard is not recognized in the Print window, and command keys are lost, just Quit Canvas and relaunch. Sometimes I make the effort to Save As... PDFs and use that to print, but restarting is a little simpler.
Choose Save As... and in that window, uncheck Use Compression, then Cancel the window. This will make Saves very fast.
While using Canvas, Quit any programs you are not using, helps with RAM allotment. Also, install as much RAM as you can afford.
NOTE: Even with these suggestions, Canvas will get unstable over time, so doing this reset will be necessary regularly.
After these posts, I'm convinced to upgrade from Tiger to Snow Leopard
