Alt text doesn't show

Hi Creatives,
it's a simple question? How can I add an alt text to images?
Right click image properties doesn't show.
Thanks,
Rado

You can only use Alt text, if you place an image. Alt text is not available, if you fill a box with an image.

Acrobat 9 typewriter text doesn't show

Acrobat 7 made me a big fan of the typewriter feature. Now that I've upgraded to Acrobat 9, I'm having problems with it. Suppose I add some typewriter text to a .pdf and save it. When I reopen the file, the typewriter text doesn't show. My text is there, but I can't see it. If I click my mouse in an area where I typed, the text comes up. I can double click it and edit it as usual. Then if I click elsewhere, the text I was looking at before disappears. So I can only look at one text entry at a time. The typed text does come out on hard copies.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
In case it matters, I'm running Acrobat Standard 9.0.0 under XP Pro SP3 on an HP Notebook with 4GB of RAM.
Thanks,
Herb

No luck but thanks...

Text doesn't show when I embed

Hi, thanks for taking the time to look at my problem.
I have Flash CS3, and I just downloaded the Pirulen font. I
played my movie and it works. When I tried to embed the font, the
text doesn't show up at all.
Also, I have a tint on my text on a keyframe, and if I click
on the timeline, the text shows up black like it should, but when I
export it, the text stays red. I tried different fonts, but none of
them work.

and are you embedding the needed characters? if yes, are you
embedding the needed characters?
are you referencing your textfield with actionscript
anywhere? if so, post (only) the code that references your
textfield (using the attach code option in this forum).

Text doesn't show up after exporting

When I export my file, the text that I put in the file with the text tool doesn't show up. Everything else is fine though. Someone please halp!

If you are using dynamic textfields then it is likely you need to embed the fonts/characters for them. This is most likely the case if you happen to be masking, animating, or otherwise manipulating them. To embed the fonts/characters you select the textfield on the stage and in the Properties panel you click the button labeled "Embed..." and then select the character sets you need to embed.
Another cause could be that the textfields are assigned the same font voor as the background such that they do not seem to appear, but if you see the text before you publish the file then this is less likrly to be tyhe case.

Image title tooltip (not alt text) doesn't work

There are half a dozen or so existing help requests mentioning alt text or discussing problems with the Google Toolbar add-on, but this is not my issue, so I am opening a separate help ticket.
If you are here about "alt" text, first read any of the posts explaining that "alt" text isn't supposed to appear, it's just a quirk of IE that it sometimes does, FF4 is correct and does what the standards ask and what other browsers do. You want "title" text. The best explanation seems to be:
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/804893
If you have the Google Toolbar installed, turn it off and see if you get them back. This is a known issue, eg:

Neither was I. I *did* get them in safe mode, but I did a lot of resetting and mucking about without any luck. In the end, after doing a text diff between safe mode and not, of the Troubleshooting information (in the Help menu), I found that the issue might be Direct2D-related, and changed the flag "gfx.direct2d.disabled" to true in about:config. I now have tooltips back but a less efficient FF4.
Hope that this helps someone, and hope that the Direct2D issue gets sorted out!

Alt text doesn't convert from PPT to PDF

We're trying to create accessible PDFs (and have done so in the past). Two different people are trying -- one gets no alt text in the PDF, and the other gets single image alt text, but no alt text on grouped items. Any suggestions?

How is the conversion being done? What versions of PPT, Acrobat, and OS in both cases? The answer probably lies in the area of compatibility or procedure.

Text doesn't show up in PSE8

This is so weird! After moving action files to the appropriate folder, an
d viewing them in PSE8, I can no longer view (on screen) the horizontal text in text box.
It's set on: Jester/Regular/60 pt and white is set for background and foreground.
I've created a new layer, and type in the text (altho it doesn't appear on the screen),
but it does appear on the Text Layer in Layers. It also does NOT show up in Print Preview.
Any suggestions?
I was working earlier, today. I've restarted pse8 over and over..same results. (Tried different
fonts, diff. sizes, etc..no luck)

Text doesn't show, scroll bar does? using Flash CS3 Please help!

A little background: I made text box, typed some text, converted it to a movie clip, named etc. Used a purchased and proven scroller component ... followed directions to the letter, including referencing/linking the files. However, when I tried to test the scroll bar .... the scroll bar appears, scrolls and works perfectly except the text does not appear. I have tried making a scroll bar with the UIscrollbar same thing happens. I made an other attempt and put pics along with the text in the movie clip ... this time the pics appeared and scrolled, but the text still would not appear. PLEASE HELP. I am on a deadline and can't get past this scroll bar issue. THANK YOU!

Hi
Thanks for the tip. I did embed the text, but still not showing. Currently, I have the text box set to the following: Dynamic Text, Multiline, Border Around text, Anti-Alias for Animation (but I have tried all choices and embed the text each time).
Here are the original instructions with the FTscrollbar which I followed exactly.
1. Drag the component (FTscrollbar) from the components panel to the stage.
2. Create a new movie clip to be scrolled:
     a. create a textfield on the scene and type in a few lines of text
     b. select the text fields and covert them to a move clip symbol having the registration point top left. (I did top right since my scroll bar is on the right).
     c. give the new movie clip an name in properties panel.
3.Select the component of the stage and configure its parameters in the parameters panel or component inspector panel.
     a. Instruc the component to scroll the new created movie clip as the targetMovieClip
     b. Set the viewAreaHeight and viewAreaWidth
     c. set snapMode to snapToView value
     d. leave rest of parameters unchanged unless you want to adjust.
4. Test Movie (contol/test movie)
On the FTscrollbar, I have the targetMovieClip set to the movieclips name the only other parameters the instructions said to change were veiwAreaHeight=100 veiwAreaWidth=150 which were the defaults. When I change this numbers the scroll bar goes away and the text still doesn't appear? The scroll bar is 16 x 140, the text box to be scrolled is 130 x 143 and the entire flash page is 500 x 550. I am not sure what the viewAreaHeight and viewAreaWidth are for ... or if that could be the problem? I have never had problems with scrollers but I used MX. I just recently purchased the CS3 and I am not sure what I am not selecting or not selecting but if feel it's probably something simple I am overlooking. So any more ideas are MOST APPRECIATED. If you need more info from me to help solve, please feel free to ask. THANKS!

Converting Word to PDF: text doesn't show on top of image

I have a word 2013 document with text on top of an image. When I convert to PDF with Acrobat Standard XI the image covers the text.
Here is the page in Word:
and here in Acrobat:
Any help would be appreciated!

I have only used Acrobat Pro, not Standard. Does Standard have a Content Pane? If so, I would try selecting each content element on the page till I found the image, and drag it above the text elements in the content order.
Hope this helps.

Alt text

I am new to web design and you helpful people have already
solved one problem for me, now I have another one...my alt text is
not showing on mouse over in IE6, and ideas?

I have the same problem in the latest SAFARI 4.0.3 and in FIREFOX and in OPERA.... I tried them all.
I took Matthew's advice but the dash had to be an equal sign.
This gives the "title" the "hover over function" for any image you choose, (that the ALT TEXT feature should have given it.)
I left the ALT TEXT info in there, too, in case it works on mobile phones.
Worse scenario, it will show a double hover over on the mobile. At least the info should be there, and it is now on the browser when you check it.
I added the code below....
title="Your title goes here"
( I placed it just in front of the alt="..........." )
By the way..... MY F12 never worked on my IMAC. I have an older extended key board, because the new wireless had fewer F keys and other features were missing, so I use an older wired keyboard. So, to check the ALT TEXT features workability, I had to set up the FUNCTION KEYS in Dreamweaver, and when I go to CHECK BROWSER I must use OPTION and F12, and it now works fine!!!
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR SITE! AND THANK EVERYONE OUT THERE ANSWERING OUR QUESTIONS. YOU SAVED ME HOURS OF PAIN!!

How do I get Alt text to show in DreamweaverCC

Please excuse my ignorance. I would like to know how to get the Alt text to show when hovering over images. It use to happen naturally in Dreamweaver 3, but now in the latest CC version it doesn't seem to work. I use it to link images to pages so when some one hovers over an image the finger points but no text appears? Is there a setting I have missed as I can't type in the code as I'm a novice? Any advice would be appreciated. The pages are all htm.

Hi Atrforrooms,
Use Image Property Inspector dialog in Dreamweaver CC. There is title field, whose value will be displayed on hovering over the image.
Below is the snapshot for better understanding and title is highlighted there. Try this and let us know if that worked for you.
Wish you luck.
thanks,

Text Caption Doesn't Show in Edit

Has anyone else had this issue, it has happened a few times
for us: A Text Caption can not be seen, accessed or updated on the
Edit Screen .. But, it is visible on the Thumb Nail, Timeline, and
Storyboard. When a Preview is run, it also shows up as it should.
However, if you run it from the Timeline is doesn't show up.
At first I thought it was a layering issue, but bringing the
text to front doesn't solve it. Any ideas? Thanks!!!!

Welcome to our community, Jane
If you look at your Timeline, does it maybe look like what
you see in the linked image?

Hello Neygotsole,
Having your device malfunction can certainly be frustrating. After reviewing your post, it sounds as though your device is experiencing multiple issues. I have located an article that can help with software issues. Have you attempted to restore the device to factory settings without restoring from a backup? Test the issue on a new installation, and make sure that it works. Then use the same article to restore from your backup to either verify it still works, or isolate the issue to the backup itself.

ICal doesn't show all text for the activity

When I updated to iCal version 8.0 i noticed that when I am in week-view, iCal doesn't show all the text for an activity, although there is plenty of room. For example I have a lecture from 9 am - 4 pm and in the activity I put down all the things I have to do, but it only shows the first line for my activity. I need to drag the box or double click on it to see all the text. Can I change this?

Gabriella,
Sometimes making the Calendar window bigger, or using full screen allows additional text to be displayed.
View>"Make Text Smaller" is also an option for those with Eagle Eyes.
