Copy file paths in Sumatra PDF editor
As a follow-up to Rob Haslam’s tip (see Issue 672) on keyboard shortcuts for the PDF editor Sumatra (www.snipca.com/48052), here’s a tip for copying a file path to your clipboard to make it easy to paste somewhere. Press Ctrl+K, then click Copy File Path (see screenshot below left). And that’s it. Before I discovered this shortcut I was pressing Ctrl+D then clicking Copy To Clipboard, which would copy all the information about the PDF. That can be useful too, but mostly I just need the file path.

Add ‘ICE’ before the names of emergency contacts
Sarah Palmer’s idea to add ICE (which stands for ‘In Case of Emergency’) after names in phone contacts is a great idea (Issue 671, page 41). But I think a person’s name would be even better. As your contacts list is alphabetical, then all your ICE contacts would be on one page together. This would be useful should any emergency arise.
