Have you used InDesign to create educational curricula for the Common Cartridge web standard?

An InDesign user from an online user group asked about using InDesign for publishing educational curricula to the Common Cartridge web standard. Are you familiar with this? If so, do you have any insight about it? Thanks very much.

I will try changing the anti-alias, something I haven't always been paying attention to, THANKS.
It was a designer that I worked with a few years ago that said she did it in Illustrator. I think it was AI (I have the Master Suite but only use PS, DW and a tiny buit of flash (usually just, here we go again, editing text)) and yes, it was rasterization and not vector, I have them mixed up and not sure what the difference is...
But she swore by it and I'm fairly certain she was using CS4. I remember having to make small text changes but couldn't because they were images in the PSD file(s) she sent. They definitley looked better than the typed in ones I did later. In fact, I recall getting yelled at for just putting it up there just using the type tool; maybe not using the anti-alias tool was part of the reason but I remember her being very adamant about it...
Thanks again RikRamsay!

    To the Adobe MUSE team....Have you considered adding an "Upload File" field for the contact forms?

    But seriously...
    Is there any development being done for this?  I have a careers section on our website that I have been asked to "make easier for applicants" (right now, there is a link that just opens an email).  I'm going to make a full version of an application, but I would really like a way to upload resumes and CV's. 
    I'm going to have to look into some kind of service if this isnt something on the Muse radar.  A reply of some kind would be fantastic! 

  • Have you used Drawscript to create code for Edge Animate?

    Drawscript is an Illustrator extension, http://drawscri.pt/
    Code can be generated into many formats: Obj-C iOS, JavaScript Canvas, CreateJS Tiny, ActionScript 3, Processing, JSON, Bezier Points Array, Archor Points Array, C++ OpenFrameworks Simple and C++OpenFrameworks Shape.
    Made note of this program some time ago and finally getting back to it.
    Looking for anyone using Drawscript to create shapes with code to add to Edge Animate.
    Do you have a working example of Drawscript to Edge Animate or tutorial?
    Thanks for any info.

  • Can I use Indesign to create an ePub for iPad with expandable images?

    Hello everyone!  I'm creating a book for iBooks on the iPad.  It is a basic book that has short chapters of text with pictures. Reading Terry White's, the Adobe evangelist, blog I saw that his attempt with InDesign seemed straight forward, without a need for html skills (which I don't have.)  So I would make the investment in InDesign if it is suitable.
    BUT! I would like to add an extra feature that I have seen in some iBooks: When  you double-tap an image the text disappears and the image expands and  fills the page. And when you double-tap the image again it goes back to  normal. Can this be done in InDesign? How?
    I'd appreciate any help.
    Thank you!      

    Size your image so that the longest dimension is 1024 pixels.
    Screen size of iPad is 1024 x 768.
    In iBooks, when a user double-taps on an image, iBooks will open the image in full-screen view and scales the image to its largest dimension.
    In normal book view, iBooks displays all images at their maximum size unless they're larger than the iBooks page, in which case they are displayed to the max width or height of the page (until double-tapped on).
    You can constrain the image size in iBooks with certain HTML coding. (Unlike other epub display software and devices, iBooks ignores CSS height and width instructions unless you make specific use of a <div> tag.)

  • I have never used indesign to type in text on the spine of a book for submission as a book cover with the POD company Lightning Source. I would be so grateful if someone could tell me how to do this. This is the first time I have ever used a forum.

    Help! How do I type in text on the spine of a book cover template in indesign?

    1. Determine the spine width first. Note that the spine width is relative to the thickness of the paper used for printing. For example, your book is of 300 pages, the spine thickness varies relative to paper thickness (say, 60gsm paper or 70gsm paper, or thicker art paper varieties). Get in touch with the Printer to give you a bound dummy (blank pages) with as many number of pages as your book has. Measure the spine manually from it. When you are more experienced, you would be able to calculate the thickness just by knowing the paper thickness (multiply by number of pages of the book).
    2. Create a spread to represent the back cover (left) and front cover (right). Increase the width of either the left page or right page, to make it exactly the width of book + spine width. Use guides to separate the spine from the cover design area. Type the spine matter and rotate the frames to fit to the spine. Rotation of frames should be in such a way that when the book is kept on table with its front cover on top, the spine text matters should be erect (not be upside down). On completion the whole design should have the bleed area on all four sides, left page as back cover, spine in the middle with rotated text frames, right page as front cover.
    OR
    3. You can also make the spine a separate page. Create a page exactly of the width of spine. Go to Pages panel fly-out and uncheck "allow document pages to shuffle". Arrange the three pages, the back cover the spine and the front cover in that order side by side in the pages panel (you can drag-drop the pages to make the 3 pages spread). Go to layout to make finishing touches.

    No, not unless it is simply a network connection.
    How is your IPTV being provided.. if it is using a separate vlan or separate vpi/vci in the adsl connection. Who is your ISP?
    Is the TP-Link ADSL?
    Is the IPTV using a separate voice channel on adsl?
    Or a different vlan.
    Sorry but it is something where a definite answer is not possible unless you provide all the details.
    The setups are unique to each ISP around the world..
    Here is one for our local ISP.
    http://www.avenard.org/iptv/Setup.html
    He has a section on getting this working with apple router over wireless.. look
    http://www.avenard.org/iptv/IPTV_and_Wireless.html
    Google around and see if other people have had success.. the whole setup is tricky.. and it is hard if nobody has used it who actually understands networking.

  • Have you used the new workflow features in CM 12?

    In CM 12.0, users can optionally deploy the standard
    approval processing or new flexible, workflow approval
    processing based on the project and/or document. Have you
    used the new workflow features? Do you think the new
    workflows will allow your organization to better drive and
    control internal and multiple party reviews?

    I was one of those users who fight for this
    functionality.
    I find using it however very
    unhandy.
    Let me give you real
    life examples:
    1. Once you
    create an order/contract and do not choose "New
    Method" you cannot change approval method to new any
    more. Imagine one of my users was creating an order
    with 120 items (hell of typing!) then she spotted that
    she cannot send it with new review process to several
    reviewers in sequence. The need for retyping it makes
    5 other ppl already against this software, even if
    they did not used it at all.
    2.
    Document Owner has admin rights.
    For some
    reason user needs to be document owner in order to
    setup review process. Imagine in our situation usual a
    site assistant, or junior person in technical office
    is responsible for creating and typing all the
    orders/contracts. So this person needs to be Document
    Owner in order start review.
    Document owner
    however can also approve/reject in name of other users
    mentioned in review cycle. This I find strange and
    make entire new review/approval cycle worthless, as
    the situation is still that anyone can approve someone
    on someone behalf with no control.
    <br
    />3. Alerts missing. I couldn't find an alert that
    would be generated if a document is held internal (by
    user) for more then ... x days.
    <br
    />4. I'm also missing a Project Setting for "all
    documents must use new review process"; "defoult
    reviewers is + 'All in sequence' + 'list of reviewers'
    - for each kind of document.<br /><br />If
    you want to force users to follow a strict
    methodology, and your software gives them chance to
    choose whomever they want, wherever they want, use any
    approval method, approve on someone behalf ... you
    will finally fail.<br /><br />I keep
    hearing that Primavera sold thousand of licenses, and
    they will develop this product, I just hope they will
    hurry, before users switch to other software.<br
    /><br />

    1. Yes, it is.
    2. You may be able to use the same address by adding a plussed suffix to it, such as [email protected] If that doesn't work, create separate emails.

    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/EN/fc/eb387a358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
    Field symbols: are placeholders or symbolic names for other fields. They do not physically reserve space for a field, but point to its contents. A field symbol cam point to any data object. The data object to which a field symbol points is assigned to it after it has been declared in the program.
    Whenever you address a field symbol in a program, you are addressing the field that is assigned to the field symbol. After successful assignment, there is no difference in ABAP whether you reference the field symbol or the field itself. You must assign a field to each field symbol before you can address the latter in programs.
    Field Groups:
    A field group is a user-defined grouping of characteristics and basic key figures from the EC-EIS or EC-BP field catalog.
    Use
    The field catalog contains the fields that are used in the aspects. As the number of fields grows, the field catalog becomes very large and unclear. To simplify maintenance of the aspects, you can group fields in a field group. You can group the fields as you wish, for example, by subject area or responsibility area. A field may be included in several field groups.
    When maintaining the data structure of an aspect, you can select the field group that contains the relevant characteristics and basic key figures. This way you limit the number of fields offered.
    A field group combines several existing fields together under one name
    like
    FIELD-GROUPS: fg.
    then you can use one insert statement to insert values in fields of field-group.
    INSERT f1 f2 ... INTO fg.
    Field symbols
    If u have experience with 'C', then understand this to be similar to a pointer.
    It is used to reference another variable dynamically. So this field symbol will simply point to some other variable. and this pointer can be changed at runtime.
    FIELD-SYMBOLS <FS>.
    DATA FIELD VALUE 'X'.
    ASSIGN FIELD TO <FS>.

  • Have you used XML?

    I am curious does anyone, that has actually used any XML technology, consider the following question meaningful?
    Have you used XML?
    And what about the following questions.....
    If you are fluent in DOM do you consider youself fluent in XSLT and Web Services?
    If you are working with Web Services do you consider yourself fluent in Ant build files?
    If you hear that question do you just assume that it it is questioning the exact APIs that you are familar with or does it refer to all possible APIs?
    Given a "normal" XML file and nothing else, is it going to provide substantial information about anything?
    XML files themselves are so incredibilely hard to figure out that one must be an expert in the XML syntax itself to make any headway at all with the APIs that use them?

    Yes, I have used XML. But that's a lot like saying I have used ASCII.
    -- I don't do DOM. And I don't do schemas or DTDs.
    -- I have done some XSLT; I have written a 600-line XSLT that transforms a certain XML format into an HTML representation of one of our invoices. (They are complicated beasts.)
    -- I know nothing about Web services.
    -- I have written some basic Ant build files but I am definitely not fluent in that format.
    I learned pretty much everything I know about XML by lurking on the Mulberry XSLT mailing list for several months. And you'll notice there is a lot that I don't know about XML. But as your question implies, XML is not "a" technology. It's just a basis for a whole raft of technologies, many of which are over-architected monstrosities.

  • Have you used Macromedia Flex?

    Have you used Macromedia Flex? What's your opinion of it? My manager is good at
    latching onto the flavor-of-the-week, but things I've read about Flex makes it sound
    pretty good. Does anyone have any war stories?
    Thanks,
    Laszlo

    From what I understand, Flex can be compared, roughly to JSP:
    JSP:mixes html markup (typically) and jsp tags with Java and JavaScript in a text file (*.jsp).
    The jsp-engine compiles that and what's delivered to the client's browser is html+JavaScript.
    Flex: mixes XML markup with STL-like tags and tags for controls (they claim dozens, including tree
    and calendar controls, editable comboxes etc...) and tags for layout (think LayoutManagers).
    The event handlers are written in ActionScript which is supposed to be very JavaScript-like (and
    in one place I read it was statically typed, hurrah!). Again this goes in a text file (*.wxml).
    The Flex engine compile *.wxml files into flash programs (*.swf) and delivers this to Flash running
    on the client. Flash, not the browser, executes the dynamic content.
    Here are some of my concerns and non-concerns:
    The Ubiquity of Penetration (is that an episode of Oz or what?) Flash is on a lot of desktops, but
    Macromedia plays Three Card Monty by not pointing out that Flex needs the latest version (7)
    to run, and that version is not everywhere, yet. But as their surveys show, it may be everywhere within a year.
    This is a non-concern for me. I write apps for gov't employees so I've got a different issue: many of them
    work in the boonies where their LAN support is execrable. And on top of that, their desktops are so screwed
    down, the only thing they can install are browser plug-ins. So Flash fits.
    The cost. Flex retails for $12,000 USD. That's seems a lot to me for something that's just in
    the presentation layer.
    This is version 1.0. Flash may be stable but how buggy is Flex?
    Where's the Java?. ActionScript is supposed to be Java-like, but what would be cool would being
    able use a subset of Java and the API for the dynamic content. This could be compiled on the server-side
    and something like byte code could be sent to Flash to execute.
    How fast and responsive are the Flash programs?
    How big are the Flash programs generated by Flex to download? And how good are browsers at
    caching flash programs? Do they use the same mechanism as for caching images? I'd hate to
    redownload a flash program over a dialup line when bouncing between screens.
    How good are the controls that Flex delivers? How does it compare to Swing, say. How comprehensive
    Is their set of events?
    What do you need on the server-side? Flex communicates to sever apps via (1) Web Services
    (2) remote objects or (3) http calls, among other things. The Flex engine itself is a web-app, and
    they list their system requirements as WebSphere 5+ (although it runs in Tomcat 5.0). Unfortunately,
    our production admins only support WebSphere 4 Server.
    Aside: I went to a product demo on Monday, and I have to say salesmanship in software products
    creeps me out. Maybe because I came into programming through the back door, from math and logic,
    but at demos I feel like I'm being sold a used car. The presenters kept referring to ROI. What do I know
    about ROI? I thought they were talking about Le fils do roi...

    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!
