Copy/paste text from Word doc or PDF to Robohelp

Bolded words, indentions, paragraphs, line spacing, font, and
text size amongst other things are lost when I do a simple
copy/paste... Any way to relieve this?
Thanks

Hi
I'd like to answer this in a slightly different way..
It's a good idea to format anything you paste into RH in RH
using paragraph styles etc. Hardcoded formatting won't be under
stylesheet control which is very bad news.
In fact I generally paste stuff from a word doc into notepad
first to remove any formatting soI have "clean" text to begin with.
That way you ensure consistency when styles are updated etc
as well maintaining consistency with what's already there.

Importing text from word.doc into iweb

This results in a graphic which cannot be updated. iWeb help suggests
Identify items that will be converted to graphics when published:
Choose iWeb > Preferences.
Select “Show text imaging indicator.”
iWeb> Prefs Click on 'Show text imaging indicator' but no change once I have done so. The text still appears as a graphic unable to be ammended.
Any suggestions? Or is this something to do with Lion?

Word is wordprocessor. iWeb is an application to create webpages with.
Copy/pasting formatted text always has unexpected results.
To overcome that, save your Word document as a html file.
Open it in a browser and then copy/paste the text.
iWeb will retain the formatting.
And Lion is an operating system. Just like a Mercedes is a car. Neither has anything to do with your problem.

Auotmating Text from Word into InDesign

Here is my situation: I am the graphic artist and layout person for the company that I work for. We produce layouts that have a pretty consistent format. Each layout has definite text sections. These text sections are written by the research editor and put into a single word document. I then have to copy and past the various text sections into the layout in InDesign.
I know that if my Research Editors worked in InCopy it would elminate the need for me to copy and paste the text from word doc into the the layout document. The problem is that one of the editors is a contract worker that is outside the office.
I was wondering if there was some way to set up a template in word. The idea would be that once the document is finished it could be imported into InDesign in a way that it would automatically populate the the text sections in the layout.

Well you know what I mean, by copy and paste. I place the text in first to preserve the formatting.
This seems backwards, to me. Is the "formatting" in the Word document based on styles? If it is, you can map your InDesign styles to your Word styles on import. If it's not, then I find it much faster to change the formatting into styles immediately upon import.
If you're not using any defined styles at all in your InDesign document, then yeah, I guess that copying and pasting is faster and a better way to preserve the manually applied formatting in Word. But why do that, when using well-defined styles in ID can be significantly faster?

Problems Copying Text from Word 2008 to InDesign CS3

When I copy/paste text from Word into InDesign, the text pastes as an image. If I draw a text box in InDeign and paste the text in there, the same thing happens and the box is locked in position. I'm pretty sure there is a setting in Word I have to change, but I've tried everything! Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Why don't you try File > Place and place the .doc file? (Probably not too many Word experts in an Adobe forum.)

I'm in trouble with copy paste some text from Word to DW mx 2004

é ... ) in the beginnig but in the Browsers testing i can't,
and then after a while i lose the ( ç ã o ...). Can
anyone help me !?
I need the work finish in next monday. Thanks a lot.

Your line breaks will most likely be incorrect if you don't turn on the Japanese Composer.
It is almost absolutely impossible to accomplish your goal without having a font - any font - installed on your system that has that glyph. However, if it's showing up in Word, than means that you must have that glyph installed, right? What font are you trying to use in InDesign? You might already know that Word will auto-substitute fonts when it encounters a missing glyph, so we really don't know what font is being used to render that one glyph. The whole sentence might be in MS Mincho but one glyph might be pulled from another font if MS Mincho doesn't have that glyph.
That being said, you're going to break it if you don't know how to set Japanese type in ID. It's not something where you can just copy text out of email and paste into your English layout.

How to copy paste a table structure from word document into Text Field [field format Rich Text]

In our current implementation we have a Blank page with Text Field [field format Rich Text] on generated PDF Document.
Once the PDF document is generated, user can copy paste content form any word/rtf document to into the Text Field.
Pasted content retains all text formatting [Bold, Italic, Underline, Indentation] except the Table format. Text Field is removing table metadata from the content and converting it into plant text.
Is there anyway to copy paste table structure as it is from word document into Text Field?

Hi,
I don't think you can! While you can paste formatted text into the rich text field, the table metadata means nothing to the textfield.

I have a scanned doc that I copied onto a word doc. the scanned document text was crooked. I want to straighten the text. How do I do that

I have a scanned doc that I copied onto a word doc. the scanned document text was crooked. I want to straighten the text. How do I do that

If it is an image you could simply click on the image in word and then use the green dot that appears above the image to simply drag and rotate the image around. Alternatively, import it into iPhoto and use the rotation capabilities in that, click edit and then quick fixes and rotate. (Then export back into word).

Copy text from Word '03 into RH9

I need to copy text from Word into RH in a way that does not bring in the Word codes. I can obviously copy the text into notepad and then into RH, but I am wondering if there is a way to do it that would be similar to the "Paste Special / Unformatted Text" command in Word?
We cannot have the word codes in RH because we translate our user manuals and then use the translated UM text to gain discounts when we translated the html help files. These codes throw off the matching and cause us to gain hardly any discounts. Even simple formatting, like a bolded word puts in the word codes into the html code. I made the mistake of thinking if I unbold the word in RH then everything is fine, but little did I know the Word code was still in the HTML.
I appreciate your help.
Also, I am open to suggestions on a better way to get my Word text into RH to be help. I've started looking into Importing and Linking, but haven't figured out if they would be all that beneficial to us.

It's the PDF.
Usually, you can copy text out of a PDF, but there is no guarantee *at all*. Older software used to take shortcuts to subset fonts: first character it encountered got coded as #1, the next as #2, etc. etc. If you do a search & replace of each of the nonsense characters, you'll slowly see the original text appearing (thst's not as simple as it sounds, though).
A similar "problem" is that sometimes spaces don't get copied (there is no need for a "Space Character" in a PDF), and that you cannot copy contiguous lines of text as a single paragraph. All of it is because a PDF is not intended nor designed to be re-used after creation.
If you really need this text and don't want to type it in, try to get hold of the original file.

Today i purchased exportpdf. when converting from pdf to word doc, the text does not show up on word doc. what to do?

when exporting pdf into a word doc the text does not show up on new doc. what to do?

Hi hamsa142,
Is this problem specific to one file, or does it happen with any file that you convert to PDF? How was the PDF created (using what application)?
For starters you may want to disable OCR as described in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (O... | Adobe Community.

Pasting text from word replaces Keynote styles

I get documents that are styled in Word that I have to convert to Keynote. Even though my text boxes are styled in the Master Slides, when I copy and paste text from word it comes in with all of word's formatting and disregard's Keynote's styling for that text box. I tried to convert the word docs to rtf or just plain text, but the text just imports without Keynote's styling applied to it. It would be very tedious to have to style each text box as I bring it in to Keynote. Does anyone have any suggestions to make the workflow less painful?
Thanks

I don't have Omni Outliner to test with, but that does sound like something that's worth looking into. Send feedback to Omni at their site and to Apple with this link.

Pasting Text from Word to InDesign (need preserve selected formatting)

When I import text from Word to Indesign I want to preserve the Italic and semi-bold but nothing else.
The Indesign document has a template set up with ipsum text styled with semi-bold and normal text as well as a character style for the italic.
When I paste the text into InDesign I want the ital and semi-bold to translate into the already styled text frame with no other formatting from Word.
As there will be hundreds of text frames like this I want the ital etc to automatically translate. I also need to paste text over these templated text frames (see attached.
Cheers,

Use File > Place and check the import options instead of Copy/Paste.
