BTF Editor and pasting graphics

When using the BTF Editor, it seems I can only paste pictures/graphics from my web browser and not from the clipboard. If I copy a picture on my harddrive it will not paste to the BTF editor. But if I copy a picture from the internet, it will paste to the BTF editor. Is this true or am I missing something?

  • Copy and paste graphics in Captivate

    HI
    i am trying to copy and paste graphics to a demonstration created in Captivate 5 from a Powerpoint and i am unable to do so, i have to save the graphic as a Jpeg file and they insert it as an image,
    in the past i was able to copy and paste graphics from PP to an existing demo without a problem.
    can anyone tell me if there is something i need to change in the properties to get this resolved?

    Will join others, never trusted the Windows Clipboard for images, certainly not from PPT

  • Copy and paste graphics and text in Acrobat 9 Pro

    I'm a new user of Acrobat Pro and am trying to copy a combination of text and graphics from the top half of a page to the blank bottom half of the page. I've not had much success with what I thought would be a simple thing to do and would welcome suggestions. Here's a summary of the options I've tried so far for graphics, text, and both text and graphics.
    A. Graphic Alone:
    1. When I use the Select Object Tool, I can highlight the graphic but when I unclick the left mouse button, the highlighting disappears, so I can't copy the graphic.
    2. When I use theTouchup Object Tool, only an oblong portion of the graphic is highlighted when I click on the object. The only way to highlight all of the graphic is to hold down the shift key and click on successive portions of the graphic until I have highlighted all of it. When I then right-click the mouse, I can copy the graphic. However, when I then place the mouse cursor in the bottom half of the page and do a righ-click paste, the graphic appears to be pasted on top of the original graphic. I can then drag the graphic to the bottom half of the page. I can also paste the object on to a blank page from Create PDF>Blank Page. Overall, this is not elegant nor intuitive, but it does work.
    B. Text Alone:
    1. I can copy the text but when it is pasted, it is not formatted like the orginal, nor can I place it where I want on the bottom half of the page. This is true whenther I use the basic copy function or the Touchup Text Tool.
    2. When I use the Touchup Object Tool and click on the text, Acrobat places similarly-formatted text in a box that I can then right-click and copy. I can then paste the text on a blank page with the text formatted identical to the way it was on the original page. With several blocks of text formatted differently, this procedure could work but would require a lot of work to create a format with placement identical to the original.
    C. Text and Graphics Together
    1. When I use the Touchup Object Tool and attempt to highlight the top half of the page, the Tool insists on including the blank bottom half of the page in its selection. I can copy everything on the page but I haven't found a way to select just the objects in the top half of the page -- I can copy some, but the selected objects aren't highlighted and so this isn't a satisfactory route. It seems obvious to me that Touchup Object should be able to select just the objects I want. But then, even the Select Object Tool doesn't do that, either -- it Selects an object but then you can't do anything with the object.
    2. Using the snapshot tool, I can highlight both graphics and text and copy them -- I can even export them them to another program via the clipboard and create an external file. However -- regardless of whether I just copy and paste, or do a  Touchup Object file import, or whether the file is bitmap or jpg -- when I paste the resulting object or file onto a page in Acrobat, the image always comes out at 200% of its orginal size. I looked for a Resize option, but couldn't find one.
    This is all very time-consuming and frustrating since what I am trying to do is not rocket science. Surely there is a simple way to do this.
    By the way, there are no security restrictions on the file.

    Hi,
    In response to both "...is that normal?" — Yes.
    PDF is not a file format meant to support editing of layout/format/etc or text content creation.
    You'd master content in an authoring application (FrameMaker, InDesign, MS Word, etc.).
    The PDF file is the output of this mastered content.
    Some minor touchups are possible with Acrobat (think whiteout/correction tape on a printed piece of paper -- PDF page content is the electronic "finished paper").
    With that said, you might play with File > Create PDF > From Blank Page and use the Typewriter tool to enter text.
    To output MS Word content to PDF use the Adobe PDFMaker.
    Prior to Word 2007, you'd use "Adobe PDF" on the menu line.
    With Word 2007, you'd use the Acrobat Ribbon features.
    Be well...

  • Copy and paste graphics to forum

    I am new to the iPad and am looking for an app that will allow me to copy photos or graphics from my photo folder and paste them in forum posts. It's easy to compose a post, but I can't seem to figure any way to attach a photo or graphic to my post. I'd appreciate any help--thanks!

    It's easy to paste. Just tap and hold down in the text field until until the magnifying glass comes up. You will then get the option to paste after you have copied something.
    If you can copy the HTML code from PhotoBucket or a similar app, it is copied to the clipboard, so when you want to insert the graphic, just tap on the text area in which you are typing to bring up the blue insertion point and hold down until the option to paste comes up and then just paste line of the code.
    When you view a photo in one of your albums in PhotoBucket, there is link icon (literally looks like chain links) at the top of the screen. Tap that icon and you get several different options. Tap and select "copy HTML code", come back to your post and then tap in the text field to bring up the option to paste, paste the code, and that should do it.
    I figured out by experimenting. I just started at the top of all of the copy choices in PhotoBucket that were under the link icon. I then came back and set up a reply to one of my own posts, copied and then looked at it in preview until I found which option to use. Then I just discarded the experimental reply.
    This is a test to make sure I'm giving you the correct info.

  • Copy/Paste graphic w/drop shadow to indesign - loses transparency

    See above image.. I made a vector version of our company logo in illustrator (all programs referenced are cs5 btw) and it looks great, but when I copy and paste from Illustrator to InDesign, it loses the transparency around the logo. If I place the logo instead, it works fine. The trouble is there are about 16 variations of the logo, and its MUCH easier to copy/paste from one aggregate file instead of having many different logo files to place.
    Background on how the logo was created: The inner circle area is multiple different gradient layers (some with transparency masks as well). The white line around the outside is an expanded stroke, and it had a drop shadow effect applied (Stylize menu), which I expanded so it would scale properly when scaling the logo up and down. Here is a link to download the logo: download logo
    Q: Is there any way to make InDesign preserve the transparency when I copy and paste?
    Would be eternally grateful if someone has a solution that allows me to copy/paste!

    I agree with Bob's suggestion to use separate "layer groups" in your logo file for different styles. I also use separate layers inside InDesign to "multi-purpose" company documents with different backgrounds, graphics, and content. But that's the only way I use layers inside InDesign – Not for general placement of image files! I also disagree with ability to copy and paste graphics from Illustrator with drop shadow. Here's an .ai logo which I quickly added Drop Shadow to in Illustrator CS4, and then a Copy and Paste into InDesign CS4 document. Best workflow practice is to 'Place' image files as Bob suggests, linking them from a separate file folder.
    For something "quick and dirty" I see no problem with Copy and Paste, but your success may vary based on OS, and CS versions you are using!  Sometimes it is wiser to take a few shortcuts to hit rather than miss that deadline!

  • When I try copying some content from a webpage and paste it to quickoffice document or in e Mail. all the text copies but, no graphics/pictures. how to get them pasted?

    I tried copying some content from various websites (open content from plian HTML pages) and tried to paste it in Quickoffice document as well as in mai application. all the text got pasted properly however the content had some graphics and pictures in it that did not get pasted. So, I want to know if there is any way I can do the copy and paste from website including embedded graphics

    You will need to copy and paste the images separately from the text. Or you can try pasting into TextEdit. However, it should work if the editor can handle RTFD files as does TextEdit. You cannot copy images to a plain text document or editor.

  • How to copy and paste vector graphics

    I have a program that draws curves and I would like to copy and paste them as a path into Adobe Photoshop.
    I am using the Clipboard class (Clipboard clipboard = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemClipboard()), but I
    do not know what string I should use for the StringSelection argument in the setContents method. I tried the
    string that describes my curves in PostScript.
    But that didn't even work for pasting into Adobe Illustrator, although Illustrator is capable of opening
    a PostScript file. (However Photoshop only opens a PostScript file as a bitmap, not as a path.)
    With Illustrator, instead of pasting the curves, it just pasted the PostScript text.
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    For me, freehep is the fifth hit when googling "java vector graphics library". But of course I don't get to "[Access hidden information|http://www.copernic.com/en/products/agent/index.html]" without paying up :).
    For a simpler way: since you already say you can save to postscript, make a temporary ps file and export it in a file list (keywords "java drag and drop files"). Perhaps Illustrator then opens the file and the user can copy/paste it there. Otherwise you have to figure out what Illustrator expects on the clipboard and put it there in the same format.
    Another option might be to use some com wrapper to talk to Illustrator directly (but probably need a commercial com wrapper for that).

  • Copy and paste text and graphics between Flash and Illustrator

    When copying text in Illustrator and pasting them to Flash, some text would become drawing objects and some remain text. A drawing object is not editable. If I import the AI file, then text remains text but the placement of graphics can be a little bit off sometimes.
    It's just not possible to copy-and-paste text and graphics from Flash to Illustrator.
    Is it just me? If not, when will Adobe have better integration between the 2?
    Thanks,

    Even though you can change your InDesign preferences for Clipboard Handling to allow formatted information to be pasted into InDesign from other programs, unfortunately Illustrator still won't allow you paste in text with formatting. This is due to how Illustrator and InDesign handle text differently. Even if you copy the text from Illustrator and paste it into a program like Word, which has a lot of different ways to handle formatted text, Illustrator just treats text differently than other Adobe applications.

  • Why are my colors changing when copy and paste a graphic from docA to docB both in illustrator?

    Both documents in Illustrator CC are RGB and I'm trying to copy a logo onto a template, but the color of the logo completely changes when I copy and paste it into the template. The logo has three different pinks and they turn red when pasted. There is no graphic styling and the logo is all gradient.

    What is weird is that we get a lot of logos from the same company and we put it on shirt templates so they can see size wise on how it would look on shirts. It's happened with other logos, but very slightly. I asked my co-worker who sends me the logos what version she uses and she also uses CC but does not know what version the other company uses. To them, it doesn't matter if the logo colors get altered, they have the PMS colors to work off of for screen printing. I just want to make sure that if another company sends us logos with PMS colors, we will know how to fix it.

  • Copy a graphic from java and paste it to WORD

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to copy a graphic from a java applet and paste it in a word document ?
    Any example should be appreciated.
    Thanks ? ;-)
    Olivier

    This is not possible on a generic applet because the browser security does not allow access to the system clip board. This can be done in a Java application or a signed applet.

  • Can I copy and paste the texts or graphics to another project?

    Hi folks, I am working on several movie clips which share the same graphics and most contents as beginning intro. Just a few sentences are different. If would be so much hassle if I had to type everything and import the images to every clips. I noticed that I can't open two projects at the same time. So I am wondering if I can group them, copy and paste them to another project? Is it doable?
    Thanks a lot for your time!

    Unfortunately, you have posted to the Tips & Tricks sub-forum, which is a repository for articles on how to do things in PrE & PrPro. Maybe Steve Grisetti, our tireless MOD, can move your post to the main forum, where more folk will see it, and can comment on it.
    In the meantime, you are correct - one cannot have two Projects Open at the same time, and you cannot Copy/Paste between Projects, without an additional program, like the Clipboard extender, ClipMate. That is one way to get what you want.
    Possibly there is another way to do what you want, without any additional programs. If you have Titles, and they will only change by a bit, you can create a "master" Title with graphics, text, Styles, etc., and then Save each as a Template, which can be used in multiple Projects, and also altered/edited in those Projects, as is needed. Everytime that I create a Title, with potential for reuse, I just do the Export as Template (the exact syntax might differ by version, but the result is the same - a PRTL Title Template file, located where you direct the program), and then those will appear in my Title "organizer" to be chosen. When one Imports one, they can be edited, as needed.
    If one has an Intro, that will be reused, then one could create that, with any audio, images and Titles, and Export/Share as a DV-AVI, or similar, for later use. Note: with this method, one could not directly edit any Titles in such an Asset, as they would no longer be official Titles, and would be footage in an AV Clip. One could Cut out a Title, and replace it with a real Title, but then one would have to adjust for Transitions, if any were used. Still, I have some Intros, and Outros, that are constant, like The End Outros, and I use the Exported AV Clips there. In some cases, I leave the Intro, or Outro slightly unfinished, so that I can just add in, say a Title for each use in other Projects.
    Good luck, and when the post is moved to the main forum, there will probably be some additional comments on slightly different workflows.

  • Copy and Paste InDesigne gives inserted graphic, not object!? Bug or "feature"?

    When I copy and paste any object in Indesign (Vectorgraphics, Rectangle, Textarea, everything) it isn't pasted as another object, it's paster as an inserted Graphic. I use Creative Cloud, updating automatically. Is this a new "feature" or a bug? Copying and pasting an Object -> i want an object again (editable and with the same color etc) and not an inserted graphic. Can I change any settings for that or something? never had this problem before!
    I would really appreciate your help as it's really uncomfortable in the workflow even though i could understand it would increase performance and reduce data volume.

    I have problem like this with indesign cs6 and windows 7, when i copy and paste frames it paste as there is graphic inside with a content grabner, my work around is from windows start>all program >go to indesign and run as administrator. Hope this may help.

  • Do not duplicate the graphic style when you copy and paste a feature

    I rely heavily on the use of graphic styles.  However, when I copy and paste a feature that has a graphic style assigned to it, a duplicate of the graphic style is created.  I sometimes end up with a large number of these duplicate graphic styles that I have to trash.  This does not happen with the selection tool+alt shortcut for copying.  However, I can't use this shortcut when I want to paste in front or paste in back, which is the case at least half the time.

    Only advice I can offer is Option Left cursor, then right cursor, to make an exact copy in same position.
    This will give you a clone as the action does form the previosu poster, but unfortunately no oslution for when you want to target layers.
    If anyone else has any input on this here is how to reproduc:
    New document, create a graphic style (eg: fill yellow, stroke none) and save
    Close the document
    Open the document
    copy and paste the element with the graphic style, and with every paste multiplies faster than a tribble on Star Trek
    I played with changing the clipboard options, no luck. Exists on CS4 Mac, CS5 Mac & PC, might go back as far as graphic styles do.
