How To Reduce Space Between Text and Image

I am trying to wrap text around an irregular shape in InDesign CS4. I used the pen tool to mark the outline of the image, cut the image, then selected the pen outline and pasted the image into the outline. With the TextWrap settings set to what is in this dialog box, text wrapping appears fine on the right-hand side, but has too much space on the left-hand side.
If I try to reduce the space even further, it just affects the right-hand side of the image, not the left:
It is doing the same thing for all of my irregularly-shaped images where I try to wrap text. How can I reduce the whitespace to the left of the image?

Actually just noticed your text is already justified apologies.
Couple more things you can try to improve this:
From Control panel menu choose Justification and try using the following settings:
Minimum
Desired
Maximum
Word Spacing
80%
100%
120%
Letter Spacing
-2%
0%
2%
Glyph Scaling
98%
100%
102%
Also check that Single Word Justification is set to Full Justify.

Space between text and images?

I have a gallery of images with headings above them and am trying to change the distance between the text and the images. I have tried floats and padding but cant get it to work. My headings are in a table and my images are not so it seems that there is some sort of default padding between the images and the text tables.
Here is a link..

Copy & paste this into a new, blank html page. It's a real quick and dirty layout but hopefully it will show you what you need to know.
FYI Code errors do matter. 90% of browser rendering issues are directly related to code. Trouble shooting is made that much easier when you work with clean code.

When I print a webpage from FF how can I make the text and images bigger?

I am trying to print an eticket for a flight. The text on the schedule comes out too small and the UPC symbol's black lines look ganged together. I know I can view it zoomed up, but how do I make the text and images stay zoomed so they will print out that way?

I upgraded but the problem remains. At least with Firefox I do have the option to print a selection even if it mangles the top and bottom lines. With Safari or Chrome I have no option to print a selection. At the moment the only way to get a complete copy of the selection is to copy to openoffice etc and print from there.

How to maintain space between table and header in ssrs

Hi Everyone,
I have created a report. In page header of this report, On First Page space between header and
body is good , but from next page, space is not maintain.
Please suggest me how to maintain space at every page of report.
Thanks.

Can you post a screenshot?
This can be achieved if you are repeating column headers on each page. Just change row height of header and align text to bottom, and make sure there is no space between Page Header and Tablix.

How to maintain space between value and base unit of measure in sapscript

There are a couple of ways to handle this, if you need a bigger space between, you can use tabs in the paragraph format. Or you can just write the space in between the fields like so.

How to reduce space between cell border and text ?

I want to make a very small print of my class timetable. But I can't reduce the table size after a certain size. The major portion is taken up due to space between the cell borders and the text in them. Is there anyway I can reduce that space so that I can make the font size a little more and still keep the table size small.

Assuming your are using Pages '09 (4.0.3) ..
First select all the cells which you wish to change.
Go to Inspector - Text Inspector, and reduce the Inset Margin

How to introduce Space between currencyCode and number using convertNumber in adf

Hi,
We are trying to use the af:convertNumber tag inside the af:outputText to apply the currency code in front of the number.
We would like to introduce a space between currency code and number by using the currency converter.
Sample code snippet is as below.
Eg.
<af:outputText value="#{pageFlowScope.myManagedBean.annualSalary}" id="aot8">
<af:convertNumber type="currency" currencyCode="USD"/>
</af:outputText>
Output shown from the above code is as: USD11,234.00
but we want to display as : USD 11,234.00(space after USD)
Please suggest us as what we can use to achieve the above requirements.
we are using jdev version 11.1.1.5.0 on windows 7 OS.
Thanks,
Shivaji

Timo,
if we use value="USD #{pageFlowScope.myManagedBean.annualSalary}", other default formats for the number will not work, it will treat as a string, even if we pass the number/bigdecimal type to the outputtext.
And if we write two separate output texts that will be bad way, to achieve this, as we have many fields to apply the same in our application.
Looking for better options on this.
Thanks,

Need one space between text and border line

Please, help me.
Is there any way to offset the text from the border a bit?
I would like to have a black line around some boilerplate text, but the text is always butted against the border. Is there a way to offset the text a bit ?
I've been searching in this forum and google and didn't find the answer yet.
Thanks,

Hi, Lan
if yo want to place a line you may choose underline option. Otherwise take a line/draw a line and keep space between the text and line.
Hope this helps
HamidIs there a way easily?
I already know that that solution. But it is troublesome when I face editing later - I have to edit all of it.
But thanks for the answer :)

How do I leave editable text and images in a PDF?

I recently bought a flyer template and it came as an editable PDF. Here is one of the templates http://www.wendygarratt.com/images/flyer.pdf
Every field, both text and graphic object, is fully editable in the free Adobe reader. I have Acrobat X and have tried all the methods of producing something like this but nothing has worked. I wish to produce not just one page template PDFs that can be edited like the one above, but I also have a 20+ page magazine, which currently is distributed in PDF form and I wanted certain image and text fields within the magazine to be customisable too.
I design the magazine using InDesign and the exported pages are composed of 1 large background image with text fields laid over the top. I have tried exporting it as an interactive PDF, ticking the layers option for Acrobat, but when I try to create an editable form (Tools>Forms>Create>Open file) it does not recognise any of the text fields at all.
Can someone please help me before I slam my head repeatedly in a door? I have been searching for a solution for so long and I'm getting rather frustrated.
Thank you in advance
Wendy-G

Thanks for the replies I've had so far, but I really need some detailed help to sort this.
I want to be able to create a PDF that has editable text and editable graphics over a background image, that can be edited in the free Adobe Reader, as per this item - http://www.wendygarratt.com/images/flyer.pdf
I know this was designed in LiveCycle and I have LiveCycle and Adobe Acrobat Pro X, but LiveCycle is new to me. I am a quick learner (I use Photoshop, InDesign, etc) and need help in getting started.
I am willing to work with someone to help get this sorted but it is urgent that I get to grips with this.
Thanks so much for helping
Wendy-G

How to reduce space between lines in Thunderbird

newest TB update changed the look of TB with too much space between lines everywhere; would like to change back so to have more lines visible and not as spaced out in height, so I can see more folders and emails at once

Interesting....as there hasn't been any changes in what you describe.
Did you use a theme addon or the default theme?
Check that no addons are interfering with the view.
so restart in Thunderbird Safe mode.
Help > Restart with addons disabled.
If this improves what you are seeing then one of your addons is causing it.
Process of elimination, disabling one a ta time to see which one it is. Maybe an addon needs to be updated.
If you changed your screen resolution then it would effect the size of icons on desktop, all windows you open etc. Less dpi size increases the display items.

Unexpected gap between text and image.

I have hit a slight snag on my webpage: <http://www.peterforkes.com/Test>.
if you scroll to the bottom you will see the send of the text area and then there is a gap and then there is the image that I was to be flush up against the bottom of the text. Unfortunately, there is a gap creeping in that I cannot figure out ho wto remove.
Can anyone offer any advice as to why this gap is there and (more importantly) how I get rid of it?
Thanks.

No gap - must have sorted it out since posting?

How to reduce space between paragraphs in bullet list

I am making a bullet list and I got it to work using CSS up to a point. The problem is that I need to put paragraph breaks between the bullet items and those paragraph breaks are huge, so my list is all spread out vertically. How do I make a break that is smaller, like a fraction of a line, but still keeps the bullet point set up?
Here is the URL http://www.williambellomy.com/Amenities.html
Thanks

That's your table structure for the list at the bottom, which will explain the different spacing. The first list is all in one cell.
I see you've got list items in separate cells on other pages too - it's not the most reliable way to do it. Keep your list together and use the margin attribute in your style sheets.

Resizing text and images with actions and keeping it resized for the next slides, how to?

Hello everybody,
I searched over the net and in this support section for a solution to my problem, but i didnt find any, so...here I am asking you experts.
Through a particular use of different actions I make a logo "compose" in the first slide of my presentation (the logo is composed by text and images that interact), then in the second slide i make it resize so it goes 50% of its size and moves down like a TV logo, in the corner of the slide, and I want it to stay there for all the lenght of the presentation.
It might be a stupid problem, but I didnt understand how to keep it there, 50% of its size and always in that position. If i duplicate the slide I obviously duplicate the 100%-size-logo, not its 50%-size-version, and if i shrink it in order to make it be 50% of its size the text size doesnt shrink so i have to change the text size manually, but the visual effect is imperfect.
Lets summarize:
slide 1: text appears, image appears, the text and the image move and "compose" the logo
slide 2: the complete logo reduces its size to 50% and moves in the lower corner of the presentation, in the place I want it to be for, lets say, 20 slides
slide 3: i want to have this logo already reduced in size and in its position, in the right lower corner, but if i try to group the different parts of the composed logo and i try to squeeze them the font doesnt change its size, I only squeeze the area that the text occupies.
Some help please guys?
Thanks in advance,
Dom-
(add: the problem is kind of similar to this: https://discussions.apple.com/message/9179367#9179367 . the idea of making a slide that contains the logo and text in the exact positions they would be after the move and scale actions is good and that was my first attempt, the probem is that it looks impossible to me to create a second "little" version of the logo that looks exactly the same of the first one that i reduced, so i hope there is some way to tell the app to use "the first logo, only resized the way i want", and thats the point where the problem with the size of the text comes out)

Hi pritam,
The “maintain proportions of window for different monitor
resolutions” property will maintain the proportional size of the front panel
(its x and y sizes) when opened in a different resolution. The front panel
objects will not be resized and will appear larger (and may not fit inside the
front panel) when saved in a higher resolution, and moved to a lower
resolution. You can use the “Keep window proportions” property to achieve the
same results.
To have both the front panel dimensions and front panel
controls scale, you need to have both the above property and the “scale all
objects on front panel as the window resizes” selected. The labels will not be
resized by this.
I tried using both properties on two monitors and noticed
that the change does not occur when the resolutions between the monitors are
different. I had to lower both monitors’ resolution to see the change work
properly.
Please post back if you have any questions. Have a great day!
