Scaling text, pictures etc. when changing document format in InDesign

Hi,
I am making an example of a cookbook layout in InDesign. This is my first time working with the software and I made the document in a totally wrong format. I made a document in 200 x 260 cm, when I was suppose to make it in 200 x 260 mm (duhh).
So my question is, is it possible to automaticly scale all my text, pictures etc when I change the document format to the correct one? Or do I have to do it all manually?
Thanks for answers!

If you've setup your document with margins and guides etc. then scaling it should be ok if you go to Layout>Layout Adjustment and turn this on.
Then change the size of your document to the new size. You will have a bit of tidying up but it can work.
Your other option to get you out of this now are to import the InDesign file into a new document at the right size. - http://indesignsecrets.com/zanelli-releases-multipageimporter-for-importing-both-pdf-and-i ndd-files.php
Or you could request for your printers to resize it this once.
But you should of course resize this to the correct size.

Why do my family members get my texts, pictures etc

Why do my family members get my texts, pictures etc?

In my family we use different icloud account for Messages, iTunes & Apps Store, & iCloud. You can use one account for iTunes & Apps Store if you want to share purchased music & apps. But your family members should have their own accounts for Messages & iCloud.

PS CC 2014 Exiting Text Edit mode when changing to another application

I just updated to PS CC 2014 on my iMac running Mac OS X Yosemite.
I noticed that if I enter Text Edit mode on a text layer and then change over (CMD+Tab or ALT+Tab) to the word processing app (TextEdit or Word) that Text Edit mode will commit.
In PS CS6 (my previous version), it used to be that Text Edit mode would stay on, so that I could change to the text document I want to copy/paste from and then back to PS. I mostly use keyboard shortcuts and rarely use my mouse/trackpad.
My question: Is there a way to get that functionality back? or is this a PS CC 2014 glitch?
Thanks!

Error while TOC created when change document approvle for UNIT testing

Hi All,
During change document approval for unit testing, we are getting error, when I checked in detail, it is giving error for transport of copies error as below
it seems to be getting locked with original transport,
also I can't see change in transport of copies
Does someone has any idea?
Dinesh

Hello Dinesh,
Perhaps the tasks of the Transport Request were not released.
Try to release the tasks only (from your DEV system), then choose action "Pass normal change to test". This will generate a ToC to be transported into your QAS.
Then from the Task List, you can schedule the background job to import the ToC into QAS system.

Daniel

Premiere CC stoped working when changing export format to h.264

I dont even start the export process when it stops working just by changing the format to h.264, I always do this and it's the first time it happens

The program had been working without one the whole time. This is the first time it's having a problem ever since I installed Premiere

InDesign crashing when changing Document Setup

Hi
I have an 75 page InDesign file with some text and placed files
When I make any changes in the Document Setup dialog, (Pg Sz, Facing Pages etc) InDesign crashes with the following message:
I exported to IDML, but that didn't help either
Any suggestions?
I'm running CS6 on Mac OSX Mountain Lion
This only happens to this file - other files are ok
Thanks
David

I think maybe the style itself is corrupt. The next thing I would try is creat a new file (blank) and in that file define a new style with the exact same name (case sensitive) and then import the style into the other file using Load All Text Styles from the paragraph styles panel menu.
I'm not certain that's going to work though, so be prepared to export the text to InDesign Tagged Text, then make yet another new file. Recreate (or load from that other new file) any styles that are causing a problem, then place the tagged text. You can work from there in the new file, or you can go back to the original, delete the offending style (leaving the text without a style), then copy the newly placed text in the new file and paste it into the original to replace what's there and restore the style assignments. You might want to do all of that on a copy, by the way, just for safety.

Can I use photoshop to edit pictures etc when my computer is offline?,

I"m new to image processing, but am an old hand at word processing. I've been bounced from window to window for what seems like several hours now. Adobe Photoshop, like Microsoft Office, seems to be the industry standard for its field and both companies seem to be constantly finding new ways of screwing the customer, or that's the way it looks to me. When initially purchasing the product,it is not always possible to get essential information either from reading the package, asking the store clerks who sell it to you, or going on internet chats at vendor websites as I am doing now.
Sometimes when you buy software it is only good for one computer, sometimes up to five. And what happens, now, if you process words and images offline and miss out on the endless series of "updates" (that may have come from hackers instead of from Adobe and Microsoft as the senders claim?) I seem to be running into all sorts of problems first with continuing to do word processing with Microsoft products, and in trying to avoid these same problems now when getting started with image processing with Adobe.
I have been around word processing software for the last twenty years, or actually for as long (and longer) than there ever was such a thing. There was a time when you bought a disk, put it in your computer, followed the prompts, and started typing. The software didn't change and there was no time limit on being able to pull a document out of a file, make changes to it, and then put it back-- "ad infinitum." Apparently things are different now, are they not? What a mess.

Yes, the desktop applications in Creative Cloud, such as Photoshop and Illustrator, are installed directly on your computer, so you don’t need an ongoing Internet connection to use them.
An Internet connection is required the first time you install and license your apps, but you can use the apps in offline mode with a valid software license. The desktop apps will attempt to validate your software licenses every 30 days.
Annual members can use the apps for up to 99 days in offline mode. Month-to-month members can use the software for up to 30 days in offline mode.

Objects (mostly text boxes, etc.) change slightly after uploading

Hello!
I am a novice Muse user, and love how easy it is to use - but I've noticed what I think may be a glitch with the rendering of text boxes once they're uploaded. When I am in design mode, all of my items are one size and perfectly aligned, but when I preview or upload, some items resize and and end up "off". I've uploaded screencaps of my site in Muse and on the Web to show what I mean. See how the second content box on the live version is slightly longer than the other three? According to design mode, all four of those boxes are exactly the same width and height, but they render differently when uploaded or previewed.
I'm wondering if this is due to responsive resizing when a scrollbar is added in preview/web mode? And if so, how can I fix it? I've already tried adjusting the text in that box. I haven't made the others larger to match it because when I'm in design mode it all looks fine, and I'd have to do trial and error fixing for something that seems like it should be simpler.
Any info is appreciated!

I may have discovered a work-around for this fatal bug. Make sure that the area-type object is the top most object in the layer order, or if you are working with multiple type objects, that each type object is in its own separate layer. It seems this bug is most prevalent when the selected objects are in the same layer, and the area-type that is selected is below other selected objects.
I was able to simplify the process of re-creating this bug down to one text box and a rectangle. First, create an area-type object and put some text in it.. Second, create a rectangle. Then, while the rectangle is still selected, use the shift key and direct-selection tool to select the left edge of the area type object. Finally, with both selections active, start moving them and watch the type disappear!
I noticed that if I change the layering order of the type-object, to where it is above the rectangle, then moving the selections, the bug goes away. Also, I found that if I needed to move the selected edges of several area-type objects at once, I could do so, as long as each type-object was in its own layer.
For the amount of time that I have spent on this bug, Adobe should give me the next version of Illustrator for free. Heck, Adobe should give everyone that has to use CS, a free upgrade.

Why do my video timings, specially in the parts where there are titles get changed when changing the format in a file converter?

Hi, i am currently working on a project in NSTC format but seem to have a technical problem. I have exported it (in wmv.) but i want to convert it to MP4 (iPod) and DVD format. Now, I have tried to convert the video with many pieces of software and they all seem to change my timings (e.g a title is shown before it should). This doesnt happen in the .wmv file but it seems to happen on both DVD and NSTC. Am I doing something wrong in premiere or is it another problem?
Thanks in advance

I am not sure that I am following. You have a Sequence in PrP, and have your Titles positioned and their Duration set, as you need. (I'm assuming Lower Thirds, or similar). Your preview verifies that everything is proper and satisfactory. Then, when you Export to certain formats, the Titles have "moved," so that they no longer accompany the proper visual from, say Video Track 1. Is that correct? If so, I am sorry to say that I have no idea how that could happen. I just want to get clarification on the exact problem, and will consider what could be afoot. Also, others will likely benefit from a bit more info.
Good luck,
Hunt

Crash when changing WMV format settings - error code included

Myself and a cowroker had this same issue happen in the same afternoon so I'm guessing it's not solely an Adobe issue, but our IT department said to contact Adobe. I'm hoping I can at least get something specific to take back to them even if we don't completely solve the issue here.
The issues we are facing:
In After Effects CS4:
When setting up a render for a WMV file, there is an immediate error and crash the second we click on the "Format options" button:
This is followed by a chance to save the file and a Windows Run Time error message. I would also upload the Runtime error, but it isn't up long enough to capture. Both myself and another designer have this issue, while two other designers in the department do not. Everything has been running filne for the last several minths, so this is a relatively new issue for us.
Our Systems:
Windows XP 64bit
32gigs RAM
Nvidia Quadro FX 1800
Xeon CPU @ 2.4, 2.4ghz
We called the general support line. The rep had us uninstall the suite which resulted in us not being able to re-install for some reason. They fixed this by removing the color profiles. Once we were back up and running, we still had the same issues. We were told to call the video support team. They told us it would cost $. We submitted the request for that to our manager, but we don't know when that will be approved, and in the meantime we now cannot use WMV files (which, unfortunately is our primary format), AND my coworker now has no color profiles due to the support from this morning.
In addition to that, we have tried the usual steps of updating, renaming the preferences folders, and performing the "repair" style install. Additionally, niether of us has downloaded or installed any new programs or codecs, so we are unsure what to try next. The two of us are also having trouble with Premiere CS4 -
Premiere no longer recognizes AVI files and says that the xmp metadata is disabled. I'm wondering if the issues are connected. Any help at all would be appreciated. Let me know if I need to post more details. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I should add that the issues in both programs and with both file formats occur regardless of file size or resolution. It does not appear to matter if the file is the smallest web banner or the largest HD video ...

Unfortunately, eradicating the current Nvidida driver and running a different one has not solvede the issue. Although the Windows RunTime error now stays up long enough to Screen Cap:
Todd,
We are aware of the specs, but due to circumstances beyond our control, we are stuck with either trying to get the programs running again in XP64, or switching editing packages. We would obviously like to avoid switching. Two other designers are running the programs fine on the same set up, and as I mentoined before, we were also running fine until recently. Since we didn't change any drivers or download any codecs prior to the onset of these issues, I'm not sure what else to do.

Images move when changing document setup

Can someone explain why when I change the document set up from "facing pages" to single pages the images on the page, with the exception of the one that bleeds on the outside edge, all shift to the right by about half of an inch.
Screen captures attached.

That's pretty strange. That said, if there were guides that things snapped to, and layout adjustment is turned on, it could be a factor, as could unbalanced margins (you're essentially switching from a left to a right page here), though I thinnk that last is pretty unlikely.
As a workaround, do they stay where they blong if grouped?

Text not updated when changing the ResourceBundle

this is an abstraction of what i have on my code:
controller
public class controller extends VBox{
     @FXML protected Label ex2;
     public CtrlMainMenu() throws Exception{
          FXMLLoader fxmlLoader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("/view/View.fxml"));
          fxmlLoader.setController(this);
          fxmlLoader.setRoot(this);
          fxmlLoader.setResources(CtrlLanguage.resource);
          fxmlLoader.load();
     @Override public void initialize(URL arg0, ResourceBundle arg1) {
          ex2.setText(arg1.getString("ex2"));
}View
<fx:root type="VBox" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml">
     <children>
          <Label text="%ex1"/>
          <Label fx:id="ex2"/>
     <children>
</fx:root>Language controller
public class CtrlLanguage{
     private static String PATH =
          new File(
               CtrlImageLoader.class.getProtectionDomain().getCodeSource().getLocation().getPath()
          ).getParentFile().getPath() + "/language/";
     public static ResourceBundle resource;
     public static void setLanguage(String file) throws Exception{
          try {
               if(new File(PATH + file).exists())
                    resource = new PropertyResourceBundle(new FileInputStream(PATH + file));
               else
                    resource = new PropertyResourceBundle(CtrlLanguage.class.getResourceAsStream("/language/"+file));
          } catch (Exception e) {
               resource = new PropertyResourceBundle(CtrlLanguage.class.getResourceAsStream("/language/EN"));
     public static String get(String key){
          try {
               return resource.getString(key);
          } catch (Exception e) {
               return key;
}problem comes when I try to change the language without changing the current root
the elements of the view are not updated when the bundle is changed (CtrlLanguage.setLanguage("file");) until the root is changed/loaded again
is there any way so i can make the content change without having to reload again the root?

Text cutting off when converting to EPUB from InDesign

Hi there,
The text of one paragraph style is being cut in half when the file is exported to EPUB from CS6. The problem is coming through in more than one e-reader. We tried solving the problem by editing the CSS, but this removed the font in one e-reader and made no change in another.
Is there a way this problem can be fixed in InDesign, maybe some change to the paragraph style?
Thanks!

Figured out the problem - there was just an issue witht he line spacing of that paragraph style.

KNA1.CREATED with Event based on Change Documents -- No Receiver

Good morning experts,
I set up a subtype of Object KNA1 ZKNA1 with 2 events CREATED and CHANGED, KNA1 is delegated to ZKNA1.
Additionally, I set up two ansynchronous methods "CREATEASYNCHRON" and "CHANGEASYNCHRONE" in ZKNA1, both are a simple CALL TRANSACTION, these methods should be terminated by the two mentioned events.
I added 2 entries in TA SWEC for triggering the both events when change documents are posted --> works fine, everytime I create or change a customer the systems creates the linked event, the event container is filled with the customer number.
Afterwards, I set up 2 standard tasks for the two mentioned methods with terminating event CREATED and CHANGED, the Instance Linkage was done in TA SWEINST and is active.
My problem now is that the event is triggered correctly, but the tasks are not getting terminated, the event trace also tells me that that there would be no event receiver entered.
Can you tell me what I did wrong? I made this for a lot of other workflows before and everything worked fine, so I don't understand what's the problem...
Thanks for your support!

Hi,
I am not sure if this will work...
Simulate 1 event using SWUO...
Under Potential tasks to be terminated... find your task ... right click-> Event Linkage -> Select "Event Linkage activated" ...
and try once more ....
Regards
Gautam

Activating Workflow for Change Documents

Hi
I am working in cProjects 4.0 on ECC6.
I am working on the scenario of automatic email generation when change document is created for project element.
I have used sample workflow WS28700006 and following settings have been made :
1. Make the required settings in the SAP menu under Tools → Business Workflow →
Development → Definition Tools → Events → Event Creation → Change Documents
→
a. Overview (transaction SCDO)
Enter DPR_PROJECTS in the table.
b. Define Workflow Properties (transaction SWED)
Enter the following data:
Change document object DPR_PROJECT
Leading table in change document DPR_PROJECT
Change document key with structure DPR_PROJECT
Action: Change X
Structure DPR_TS_BUSINESS_OBJECT_KEY
Function module BAPI_BUS2175_OBJECT_KEY_SET
c. Linkage (transaction SWEC)
Enter the following data:
Change document DPR_PROJECT
Object category BOR object type
Business object type BUS2175
Event CHANGED
On change X
In cProjects I have I have attached word document, and another user changed it and changed document again checked in again with overwriting the old one.
But no workflow triggerd. In SWI1 transaction I cannot see any workflow triggered.
Is there any problem with workflow and process or changing document in cProjects is not write ????
Can someone help ????
Regards,
Niraj Sikligar

Hi Niraj,
Please ensure that you have made IMG setting for cProjects > Basic Settings>'Activate Change Documents'.
'Change Documents' means that any change in the Project Objects will be recorded, and not the changes in the documents that have been attached.
I am not too sure about the workflow settings that you have made, but just try with the img activity that I've mentioned. You can test the same by making some changes in Project ( for eg change the Project Status) and save it.
Let me know if it helps.

Vivek Pandey
