Annoying text shadows and text backgrounds...

I agree with Chiatanya... the text shadows are very annoying! So too are the text backgrounds. I updated from 10.2.4 and didn't have either of those problems. Does anyone know of a way to eliminate the text background and/or text shadow? Transparent color???
Please view a screenshot of what I'm (we're) talking about...

Hi Richard, when any file or folder on the destop is selected it exhibits the "text background" you are showing and when it not selected the text has a drop shadow. There may be some haxie out there that will change it for you but I know of no way to accomplish that from within the system.

How to get text name text object and text id for long text

Hi,
I am trying to fetch Long text for a given order number from transaction CO04 in SAPScript. I know that I have to use Include X (OBJECT) XX ID XXX.
How do I get the text name, text object and text id for the order header long text from Transaction CO04.
Points will be awarded..
Tushar

Tushar,
When you are in CO02, and are at the Long Text Tab,click on the Icon that is next to the Order Number at the top of the screen (this icon looks like a Pencil and a Pad of Paper and is called "Change Long Text"). When you click on this it will take you to the SAPscript Editor. Now hit Goto->Header and you will get the data you require.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Pat.

Transporting Text Elements and Text Symbols?

Hi,
Please tell me how do we translate text symbols and text elemnts into different languages? Also how do we transport them and if we translate them in different languages then will these translations be available when we are transporting them to different servers?
Looking forward to your quick response.

Rendering Drop Shadows and Text

You know... for a system that can play 16 video streams in HD and dynamically adjusts the playback quality to handle all of that to play in real time......
why does a drop shadow and crawling text require a render on 2 streams of SD video?
I'm editing plain NTSC 29.97 DV footage..... my sequence settings are the same as my clips... all footage plays fine and generates a green preview bar for when I start getting complicated..... but when i add a drop shadow....... no matter what.... no matter how many streams are on... (even if it's only one) red render required to play.
It just seems odd that it can handle so much more information than what a drop shadow seems to generate..... the same happens with scrolling or crawling text. Is there anyway to get this in a preview..... so i don't have to spend 4 minutes rendering something that might not even work the way I want it to in the first place?
FCP 5.1.3
G5 dual 2.7 - 17in MBP Mac OS X (10.4.8)

give it a couple more months
the drop shadow will be fine once the processing is offloaded to the GPU

How to change default text properties and text box properties

I'm adding text to a PDF document by using the text box tool. The default is to put a border around the box and also the font is red and larger than I'd like. I think I found how to change the default box properties (so it has no boarder).
For the text/font, I can pull up a menu to change the font properties, but so far I'm having to do this for each box I create. One workaround is to cut and paste new text boxes with the formatting I want, but I still want to know how can I set the defaults to the font, size and color of text I want?
I'm using AA 8 Professional
Best, David

This is one of Acrobat's less intuitive areas!
For defaults, right-click on the text box that is as you want it: then select menu item 'Make current properties default'
Use Ctrl-E to bring up the Properties toolbar: its content will change depending on whether you have the box or the text selected, and selecting the box or text can be a bit clunky.

CSS text shadow and outline.

Can I make a red text with a black outline and a shadow in
css?

Yes - I pointed that out much earlier in the thread. OP
didn't see the
relevance of it to the question, though. I thought a little
demo would
suffice.

Psd with shadow and transparent background

I have a psd image with transparent background and a shadow efect (color 0,0,0,100 and multiply). When I import it in InDesign, the shadow don't overprint. What can i do?
This is an example with a pentagon with shadow made in indesign and another made in photshop:

This has been requested for quite some time, and what I've heard from folks who ought to know is that there are some rather large technical impediments to implementing this in InDesign. I too hope that they will eventually deal with it, but it doesn't seem like it will be any time soon.
In the mean time, here is a link to a script on our website which will help with the "place the image twice" workaround:
http://www.premediasystems.com/scripts.html
Towards the bottom of the page, you'll find a link to download the script (which is called "Shadow-matic").
Using it is pretty simple. You place the image, and select it prior to running the script. When you run it, a dialog box will appear listing all of the layers and paths in the image. You can select any combination to be used for the "shadow" image and the "main" image. The script then duplicates the image, sets one copy ("shadow") to "multiply" (in InDesign), and sets the layer visibility and/or clipping path as you specified. It then sets the other copy ("main") to "normal" blend mode (again, in InDesign), sets the layer visibility and/or clipping path, and groups the two images together. The download includes a brief set of instructions...
It doesn't currently support choosing layer comps as Bob suggests, but that would be a good feature request .

Is there a feature in Acrobat XI = free text field and text is visible if form printed?

I am trying to develop a fillable form (not web based) that would allow the user to free text in some fields. I do see the multiple text option. However, ideally I would like the text and all lines of the text to scroll and be visibile on line and also when printed.
Does this feature exist in Adobe Acrobat XI Forms Central? Additionally I do not want to collect data.
Thanks!

To achieve what you want (multiple line text fiels which scroll on the screen but expand when printed to show the whole text) you would need to use LiveCycle Designer and create a dynamic form. This is more of a power user tool. You can get more information here : http://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/tools/designer.html
This used to come in the box with Acrobat. If you upgraded to Acrobat XI you might want to have a look at this page

Text orientation and Text size

Gurus,
I have been beating my brains out to find a way to orient labels on map and also be able to control their size with different zoom levels, but with little success.
I have Master map spatial data stored in our database. I am taking advantage of the Oracle Maps Javascript APIs on the build "Ver1033p5_B081010".
Here is what I am upto:
1. Created a GEOMETRY THEME "AREA" to display the topological area.
2. Created another GEOMETRY THEME "Road Names" to display the road/street names. The Styling rule used for the "Label Style" has the "Smart path following" property enabled.
3. Created a BASE MAP out of these two themes and have defined the scale at which the "Road Names" needs to be displayed.
4. Created a TILE LAYER out of the base map.
I run my web application and it displays the map correctly and the theme switches on/off exactly at the zoom level which I had defined. Things are slick, but i am not happy with couple of things.
When the "Road Names" theme switches on, the labels do not do a "Smart path following" which I had hope to see happening out of the box.
Also, the label size of the theme remains the same on every different zoom level which is a bit annoying.
Could anyone please advise me on how to tackle these issues?
Many thanks,
Sumanth

Did you find a solution?

Display key and text by WAD command in custom structure hierarchy

Hi everybody,
I have a query using a custom structure with hierarchy layout. As usual the structure does only display its text as descriptions but I can enable the display the key in BEx Web by right-click on the analysis item --> Properties --> Characteristic --> Display. Unfortunately these setting can not be defined directly in the structure within the Query Designer.
For a workaround I put the query into a web template, in which I used the Set Presentation (SET_PRESENTATION) command to enable key and text display from the start. Hence I put that command in the wem template parameters Action Before First Rendering (ACTION_BEFORE_FIRST_RENDERING). Everything is working properly and makes me very happy.
But... there is one thing missing, I would like to implement... I want a toggle button, which allows the user to switch between key and text display and text display. Unfortunately setting the same command from Action Before First Rendering (ACTION_BEFORE_FIRST_RENDERING on a various button does not working. The button command only affects data rows of the leaves of the structure hierarchy. All parent nodes do not change their appearance.
Any ideas how to solve this?
Thank you for any helps and comments!
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,
I have a similar problem. Can you help me? How did you set the entry in Member Presentation of Command SET_PRESENTATION to display key and text? I just found the values to set the only text or only key.
best regards,

Symbol and Text Substitution Settings File-

Hi,
I have two computers with Snow Leopard, and I've made a [large] list of substitutions on one computer. I'd really rather not spend my time manually copying them over from each computer. I've tried looking for a settings files to copy, but I can't find it. The one for words I've chosen to have OS X 'learn' is found in the 'Spelling' folder (~/Library), but I can't find substitutions.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks.

Go to System Preferences...
- Language & Text

Symbol and Text Substitution
Hit the '+' icon bottom right to add your own.
Otherwise, you should perhaps look to a 3rd party app, such as TypeIt4Me:

Be sure whatever you find is snow leopard compatible, of course.

Cannot type in a text box or text callout box

I'm using Windows 7, IE 9.0.8112.16421, and Acrobat version 10.1.6. I am working in a priorietary platform for reviewing material and I can use all of the commenting tools and can create a text box and a text callout box, but I cannot type in them. My text box and text callout box work just fine with every other program that I use on my system. But this requires using Acrobat and its tools within their platform and I cannot type in those two boxes in that situation. Their first suggestion was it was an Acrobat problem. We have repaired and reinstalled several times to no avail. They then said to be sure Acrobat Reader was not installed (and it wasn't). I've cleared history. Their online reviewing system requires a specific Java script in a specific place -- we've installed, deleted, reinstalled, etc. and it still doesn't work.
I've used this platform on another computer and it works fine. I got a new computer in February with a new CS, and the problem is occurring on only this new system. And only when I am using Acrobat in their platform.
Would anyone have any suggestions what I might try? They said they had one report of a person having the same problem, but they had Reader installed.
Thanks!

I don't know how to save a sample file to the forum. But I know it's actualy being created because I can close and reopen the document and the text box is still there and you can still select the text in the text box, view it and see it. But as soon as you click outside the text box, the text in the text box disappears again until you click back inside the text box.
This problem has been discussed ad nauseum with no solution ever having been given.

I am on Adobe X Pro and whenever I add text using the text edit tool the text disappears when I add text to another place in the document. It is also creating comments for every place I add text. How do I get the text to remain visible in the document and not create a comment?

I can place the text boxes and get the font and colors all set up OK, but then when I click the cursor in a new place to start a new text box, the first one vanishes and won't come back unless I mouse over it.

Usually, responders claim that one is using Mac Preview or reader or some other program. THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM. THE DOCUMENTS ARE BEING CREATED AND/OR EDITED IN ADOBE ACROBAT X AND NO OTHER PROGRAM.
