Combining separated text into single object ...

I remember in older versions of Illustrator that when you used pathfinder to combine multiple objects into a single object ... it actually made them into a single object, regardless of weather or not they where intersecting.
With the more recent versions of illustrator, when you try to "unite" objects in pathfinder ... the only ones that are truly combined into a single object are the ones that overlap ... anything separated will simply be "grouped" and remains a totally separate object ... even if you use "expand objects" on the group.
I'm trying to use a third party program (path styler) and the problem I'm running into is that when I apply a stroke effect in path styler, it treats every letter in my headline as a separate object (even when united in pathfinder), causing the strokes to overlap the previous letter.
What I want to do is combine all the letters into one single object (while still leaving space between each letter) so that path styler treats the text (and the outlines) properly. (So the outlines run into each other, instead of overlapping the fill.)
Any help would be appreciated ... this should be simple ... but I think it may be a case of the program trying to preserve the history of "united" objects when I don't want it to.
Thanks!

Make your logo ONE entire compound path, you probably have each letter as an individual compound path.

    If you understand how SQL statements are executed it's along these lines...
    1. Open Cursor
    2. Parse SQL statement and determine columns
    3. Bind in any input values
    4. Fetch data
    5. Bind out values to columns
    6. Repeat step 3 until no more data
    7. Close cursor
    Now, you're expecting that you can determine the columns (step 2) from the fetched data (step 4 onwards). You can't. The SQL engine needs to know the expected columns before any data is fetched so, it can't base the number of columns on the data itself.
    If you need that requirement, you would need to query the data first and build up a dynamic query based on the data and then execute that dynamically built query to fetch the data and pivot it into those columns, which means that you have queried the data twice. Not good practice and not good (or simple) coding.
    What you're talking of doing is something that should be handled at the presentation/interface layer, not as part of the data fetch.
    Typically these sorts of things are handled most easily in report generation/writer tools such as Oracle Reports, Business Objects etc. where they fetch the data from the database and then process it to format it on the display, pivoting the results as required.
    It's not something that lends itself to be easily achieved in SQL. Yes, SQL can do pivoting of data quite easily, but NOT with a dynamic number of columns.
    If you were to specify that there is a maximum number of columns that you could get (rather than wanting it dynamic), then you can do it simply in SQL with the max-decode method...

    My requirement is to combine multiple STOu2019s contains different DELIVERY DATES and having SAME SUPPLYING AND RECEIVING PLANT into one single delivery.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi
    Delivery in STO is created for single order and for same delivery date, same delivery no. for different delivery date and  for multiple STO is not possible and its not logically correct,since after creation of delivery you will be doing picking and packing and Goods Issue.

    <b>Billing document consolidation</b>

  • Combine 2 rows into single row?

    I have a table A which has information related to a process. For process completion there exist 2 rows. One has in it the total elapsed time, the time the entire process (which is multipart) begin and end time, but the columns related to rows processed are blank. Another related row has a start, end and elapsed time in it -- which I don't want -- but it has the row counts that I do want.
    I want to take these 2 rows, combine the relevant information into 1 row and insert that row into table B.
    I know I could insert from the first row and then come back and update it from the second row, but I hate having to read Table A twice. Any suggestions?

  • Merging Gradient Shapes Into Single Object

    i have 2 square shapes on my artborad.  each square shape has its own gradient fill.  i would like to merge these 2 shapes to form a single shape.  not a groupe of shapes, but a single, flattened (compounded?) object.
    the gradient of the first square includes a zero-alpha.  the second image is the two shapes simply layered, but i want to basically flatten them together to form one shape.
    what steps are involved in merging these shapes to form one shape so that their gradients are unaffected by merging with the other?

    It is not necessary to have two separate paths for this. You can apply multiple fills (including grad fills) to a single path. You can apply Effects (including Transparency) to individual fills.
    So simply draw the one path and give it the first grad (the orange grad). In the Appearance palette's flyout meun, select Add New Fill. Apply the second grad (white/black) to that fill. If working in CS3 or prior, set the Transparency Mode of the second fill to Multiply. (If working in CS4 or newer, you can make one end of the grad transparent.)

  • How to merge colour-separated PostScript into full-colour PDF?

    Hi there
    I have a PostScript file that consists of four pages, one for each of the CMYK colour separations. I’d like to merge these pages into a single full-colour page. Any ideas on how to do this?
    Creating a new PDF in Acrobat or with Distiller creates the four-page PDF. I’m sure I could figure out how to do it with PhotoShop, but I don’t want to rasterise it and I’d like to work out how to do it efficiently, as I’ll need to do this to a whole lot of other files as well.
    I’d appreciate any advice or pointers to other resources. I’ve haven’t found much at all in my searching.

    There is no direct way to do this with any Adobe products. You are effectively trying to undo the separation process that created the pages you have. To do this other than via rasterization with Photoshop would require software that could analyze each of the objects on each of the separations and combine matching text, vector, and raster objects back into single objects with the color values taken from the separations.
    Conceivably you could make each page into a layer and turn on overprint for absolutely all objects in each layer, although this would yield a rather awkward PDF file that might not give you the results you are looking for.

  • Combining multiple databases into one in the physical layer

    I have several databases in the physical layer that I would like to combine into one database. How can I do this safely without interfering with the existing physical joins in the physical layer and the column mappings in the BMM layer ?
    Can you recommend the best procedures to follow in order to get this accomplished?
    Boniface Ntawutarama

    hi Boniface,
    I think so No,you cant combine all databases into single one.Actually why you want to do this?
    According to the requirement you select a database and concerned tables to build the repository,same way with other databases also you build RPD and establish joins in physical layer
    Lets wait for any more specific answers on this from experts.

  • Hiding filenames when combining multiple files into a single .pdf

    I'm fairly new to this Acrobat X. I'm trying to assemble my portfolio to distribute to employers but I cannot seem to get rid/hide the filenames in the final pdf file. I was using the option to 'combine multiple files into a single pdf' because I was compiling images and documents to a single readable pdf file. I got all that done but once I open it, I'd see that each page would still contain the original file names rather than page numbers - which I prefer not to have employers see for the sake of tidiness (and I refuse to use the Adobe portfolio because it's not really efficient on space or design. I prefer a simple page-by-page pdf). So I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to hide my file names, change them into page numbers or getting rid of them all together so the 'Table of Contents' in the pdf preview mode would not show anything, I would really much appreciate it.
    -Ss

    Well, when the .pdf is in the final, deliverable form; I open it in Mac preview mode and the sidebar is always extended showing a 'table of contents' rather than having each document in the pdf file have a number designating a page name, it shows each individual filename the pdf is composed of. Not too sure about bookmark, though. Thanks for the reply!
    If you want, I can send the file to you.

  • Combining multiple lists into a single list

    Hi, 
    I have created 5 different lists within the same sharepoint site. These lists have some common fields among them for example each list has same fields such as "Country", "Unit", "Review Name" etc. I now want to create a single
    list that will have show only the common fields present in each list. Could you please advise if this can be done and if so how?
    Thanks, Aarti

    To have a full fledged synchronization between 5 lists will be very complicated.
    If the 6th list is a read-only / view only, I would recommend you to create Lists 1, 2,3,4 and 5 as a custom content type.
    Then you can put a Content Query Web Part that filters out your custom content type and combines the content from the three lists.
    or create a  workflow to update the data when new item is added in other lists

    coloumn : PERSON , PAYMENT , STATUS ,  SUBMISSION .
    RETURN  = PAYMENT + STATUS + SUBMISSION
    (return coloumn will contain the data of other coloumn )
    Thanks in advance .

    In your context, create a node 'Employee'. It should have the attributes person, payment, status, submission, return. Let return be of type string. I assume you have a ztable or some ddic structure employee, which does not have the return field.
    You code will be on these lines - change it to your requirements anyway. Place the code in a method depending on your requirement of when the data should be displayed.
    data: node_emp type ref to if_wd_context_node,
            itab_emp type table of employee,
            wa_emp  type employee,
            itab_node_emp type if_main=>elements_employee,
            wa_node_emp type if_main=>element_employee.
    node_emp = wd_context->get_child_node( name = 'EMPLOYEE' ).
    <i>* Get data from your API here into itab_emp *</i>
    loop at itab_emp into wa_emp.
      move-corresponding wa_emp to wa_node_emp.
      concatenate wa_emp-payment wa_emp-status wa_emp-submission separated by space into wa_node_emp-return.
      append wa_node_emp to itab_node_emp.
    endloop.
    node_emp->bind_elements( itab_node_emp ).
    Here, before the loop, you need to fetch the data into itab_emp using your APIs. Since you have said you want to display the data of multiple columns as is, I have just concatenated them.
    In your view layout, have a table and bind the data source to be the context node Employee.
    <b>The data types of itab_node_emp, wa_node_emp will differ based on your view name and node name. Use the code wizard to generate your code according to your design time.</b>
    Hope this helps.
