I thought I should promote the blog post which helped me tackle this small but annoying problem, which wasn’t even related to editable grid as I had thought initially.

Note on memory upgrade for HP LaserJet (CP3525 / CC412A)

As a continuation of my previous post it’s also worth mentioning that if you’re looking for a memory upgrade for your HP LaserJet CP3525 (3525n, 3525dn, 3525x; also maybe CM3505, CP3505 — basically any printers that require HP OEM CC412A memory) and you’re unable to find PC2-4200 SO-DIMMs on offer nearby, you may just get PC2-5300 SO-DIMM memory which is 1) backwards compatible with PC2-4200, 2) works fine in HP printers and 3) is usually much easier to find and buy.

“No package … is available” when doing “yum install”

If after doing yum install you get the error: no package ... is available while you’re absolutely sure that the package you want to install is available in connected repositories, chances are that it is excluded in /etc/yum.conf.

My error was no package ftp is available. This happened because DirectAdmin excluded everything *ftp* presumably to avoid conflicts with the FTP daemon it takes care of, and ftp, the standard unix FTP client, hadn’t been initially installed on the server.

“Trim” counterpart in Illustrator

In Illustrator, if you need to crop the canvas (page) just like the “Trim” function in Photoshop would do, use Object > Artboards > Fit to Artwork Bounds.
