Can you place text from a word document using data merge?

I'm working with a charity that is giving away scholarships/grants. I need to create a ducument that pulls in various application data plus their submitted essay (docx format). I would like to do this via data merge but cannot find any reference if it is possible.
Please help, I really need to automate as much as possible since this is a side project.
Kevin

Data merge only collects info from CSV format - which I expect you would export from Excel. (I think it'll take tab-delimited as well, but that's it.)
MS Word files can be placed, but Data Merge is not the tool to automate placing of Word-file content. If there is no formatting of their essays, I suspect you could use VBA to cause entire essays to occupy a single cell in Excel. But that would be the only way to use Data Merge to automate import of essays into InDesign.
Maybe if you tell us more we can give you some more automation suggestions. (I spend a lot of time automating translation workflows, but I still place Word files. All day long, in fact.)

How can I place text from an external file as an updatable link?

Currently we create presentation documents InDesign. Each presentation page is a linked Illustrator file (the file contains drawings and description texts). We write the text in Illustrator instead of over it in InDesign because multiple designers/writers will work on each page. We have text that sometimes appear on multiple pages, this text has previously been copied and pasted into each Illustrator file that it needs to appear in, this is inefficient and prone to error.
Is there a way to link to a text file in Illustrator that remains updatable? I poked around here and found information relating to Variable Data – things similar to Data Merge in InDesign. This isn't the solution I'm looking for however. It seems like a plugin or script is the solution.
much appreciated
Ray

I have to imagine that you have good reasons for structuring the workflow as you describe. However, this:
We write the text in Illustrator instead of over it in InDesign because multiple designers/writers will work on each page.
doesn't make sense to me. Between the two, InDesign, (particularly CS6), is far more capable of efficiently supporting a linked-single-source-of-text workflow than Illustrator...without any additional plugins or scripts.

How can i place text boxes closer together in pages

I have a shape in pages and I am trying to place names inside of the shape. I would like th fonts to be bigger they are too far apart. As soon as I try to make the font bigger they cancel each other out.

If you aren't seeing the Inspector window, type Option-Command-I. Then locate the Inspector Window and click on the third tab.

My iphone 5 went into search mode and I can't place or receive calls or use the internet but my text messages work. Sprint had me do a master reset and my phone doesn't work at all now I can't get it past the activation. Will I have to pay in store?

Sprint had me do a master reset and my phone doesn't work at all now I can't get it past the activation. Will I have to pay for repairs in store because I didnt get the Apple care plan when I purchased it. Sprint said it may be a phone problem not sure if I should take it to Sprint or Apple...I just need my phone

I'm sorry to learn that you are not able to make/receive calls chelseabee! (ticket number removed) results indicate that there is no issues with the network or account provisioning. Since you have already done a hard reset http://vz.to/1gBkSJc (as per your post), I recommend exploring replacement options. If your phone is within the one year manufacturers' warranty we can provide a Certified Like New replacement http://vz.to/uyYF0o as long as no physical/liquid damage exist. If your phone has sustained physical/water damage and you have insurance, you can submit a claim to the insurance company online at this link http://bit.ly/07CrqPK

Can you place keyword headings outside the left margin without resorting to using text boxes?

I want to place different keyword headings outside the margins of my document. Is there a way I can do this without resorting to textboxes?

Hi Eli,
You cannot place text outside the document margins without placing that text into a shape or a text box. Objects, including text boxes and the text they contain, may be placed outside the margins.
Jerry's solution involves moving the left document margin closer to the edge of the table. As you've seen, doing so also adds cmplications to managing text behaviour on the left side of the page.
Here's a variation on Jerry's suggestion that may be easier to manage:
In the Document Inspector, set the left margin to the position at which you want the keyword headings to begin. (0.5")
In the Layout Inspector, set the left margin to make the document margin + this layout margin equal to the position you want for the 'regular' margin fo the body of your document. (0.5" to give the default 1" body margin).
Assuming there is text before the first Keywordheading:
Click immediately after that text, press return to insert a paragraph break, then go Insert > Layout Break to insert a Layout break.
Type the single 'word' "Keywordheading" (without the quotes, and with no spaces), followed by a return, then go Insert > Layout Break to insert a second layout break.
Double click Keywordheading to select it.
Apply any formatting you want (I used a two point larger font size and Bold) for the heading.
In the Layout inspector, set the left margin to zero.
You now have a 'master copy' for your keyword heading, which can be copied, then pasted to each location you want this type of heading to appear.
Select the first Layout Break, the line with 'Keywordheading', and the second Layout break, as shown in the image.
Copy.
Click immediately after the text preceding the next Keyword heading.
Press return, then Paste.
Repeat as needed.
If you have alrady entered the text for these headings, you can use these steps to move them into the keyword heading spaces:
For each heading:
Select the words that make up the heading. Cut (command-X)
Doubleclick 'Keywordheading'. Go Edit > Paste and Match Style.
Repeat for next heading.
If you have not yet entered the text for these headings:
Doubleclick 'Keywordheading' to select it.
Type the heading.
Repeat.
Note that after inserting these heaings, you can copy the three lines (Layout break, word(s)&return, Layout break) of any of them, then replace the text of that heading with the text of a new heading.
Within the indented parts between headings, bulleted lists will behave normally.

Barry

Hello, for a multilingual catalog project I would have to know how and with what tool I can place text from Excel or a database in text frames / tables. The basic idea is to provide the text box with an ID (eg << text_eng_art_nr_987654>>) and above to make the connection. Does anyone have a tip. Thanks in advance !!!
Bernd

Data merge is really useful in many circumstances, but my first question would be about the size of the project. A really large catalog might be better handled by processing an IDML in some kind of translation memory tool.
If all of your multilingual content is already in Excel, then it's probably best handled with a Data Merge. Note that you can't save Unicode CSV out of Excel for the merge, so for many languages you'll need to save "Unicode Text" out of Excel and tweak your import settings when you select a Data Source for encoding (Unicode) and delimiter (tab instead of comma).

How can I wrap text in a pie in pages?

How can I wrap text in a pie in pages?

If you need to insert text into a shape like a pie wedge, the easiest way might be to simply use the shape - freeform tool (at the bottom of the shape menu) and create a shape and type your text in it then place the shape over your pie wedge. The text within the shape should wrap - additional controls for text can be used with the Text Inspector.
You can edit the actual shape with Format Object > Make Shape Editable option but unfortunately, you have an option to make straight or smooth curves, but not both, so you'll need to shape the object using smooth curves and use the the bezier controls that appear as you select a control point.

You should turn off "Auto input monitoring". I only have L8 and there you find it under Options->audio->Auto Input monitoring. Would guess that its in the same place in L9

How to translate the text dynamically in the program?

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I need to translate the text dynamically in the program based on the Language Key retrieved.
Let's say that the Login language is 'EN' and in the logic has retrieved the language 'IT'(based on some conditions). I have to transate the text(which is maintained using the text elements) to ITALIAN(IT) Language and send the same as an email.
Could you please tell me if any Function Module is available in SAP which translates the text Dynamically in the program. or is there any other way to translate the text dynamically in the program.
Could you please share your valuable inputs? Thank you in advance.
Thanks & regards,
Paddu.

you could use SET LOCALE LANGUAGE myLanguage - so you can switch to the desired language and all texts will selected from that language.

Can we set the dynamic data source when using getReportParameters() ?

Hello!
I have a report where one of its parameters refers to a list of values (LOVs). This list of values is an SQL Query type. When the data source used in the report is defined in the BI Publisher server, I'm able to get the report parameters using the getReportParameters() function in my application. However, if the data source is not defined the function throws an exception, which is understandable.
I decided to dynamically set the data source so that even if the data source used by the report is not defined in the BI Publisher server, it still will be able to get the LOVs for the parameter. I tried setting the JDBCDataSource of the dynamicDataSource for the ReportRequest object that I passed to the getReportParameters() function. Please see the sample code below:
reportRequest.dynamicDataSource = new BIP10.BIPDataSource();
reportRequest.dynamicDataSource.JDBCDataSource = new BIP10.JDBCDataSource();
setReportDataSource(reportRequest.dynamicDataSource.JDBCDataSource, connectstr, jdbc, dc); //function to set the values for JDBCDataSource object
reportParams = webrs.getReportParameters(reportRequest, uid, pwd); //call the getReportParameters
I was expecting this to work as this is what I did to dynamically set the data source before calling the runReport function. So, my question is -- can we set the dynamic data source when using getReportParameters() ? I tried this both in versions 10g and 11g. It does not seem to work on both versions.

report_id column of apex_application_page_ir_rpt can help us uniquely identify each saved report.
We can assign this report_id value to a page item and this page item can be put in the Report ID Item text box of the Advanced section of the Report Attributes page of the IR.
This should load the saved report identified by report_id and you can get rid of javascript

Can I create a dynamic number of inputs during runtime?

Can I create a dynamic number of inputs during runtime?
Oracle 11g
Application Express 4.0.2.00.06
Here is my problem:
We have a table that holds metadata about files (hardcopy or softcopy files).
We expect we may need more columns in the table at some point and don't want to modify the table or the application.
So in order to do this I would like to create:
A table called TBL_FILE with the columns:
TBL_FILE_ID               NUMBER                (This will be the primary key)
TBL_FILE_NAME          VARCHAR2(1000) (This will be the name of the file)
A second table will be called TBL_FILE_META with the columns:
TBL_META_ID               NUMBER               (This will be the primary key)
TBL_FILE_ID               NUMBER                (This will be the forign key to the file table)
TBL_META_COLUMN     VARCHAR2(30)     (This is what the column name would be if it existed in TBL_FILE)
TBL_META_VALUE          VARCHAR2(1000) (This is the value that record and the 'would be' column)
So a person can have as much meta data on the file with out having to add columns to the table.
The problem is how can I allow users to add as much data as they like with out having to re develop the page.
Other things to note is that we would like this to be on a single page.
I know how to add we can create multi-row inserts by using a SQL Query (updateable report),
however the TBL_META_VALUE column in the TBL_FILE_META will sometimes be a select list and other times a text box or number field.
So I don't see now a SQL Query (updateable report) would work for this and I can't create an array of page items at run time can I?
Any idea's how I could accomplish this? Is there a better way of doing this?
Also is there a term or a name for what I am doing by creating these 'virtual' columns in another table?
I found this method when looking at Oracles Workflow tables.

Creating Page Items dynamically is not available. You will have to create excess items and hide/show , etc. But you cannot change the Item Type. All in all, too many limitations in this approach.
>
Other things to note is that we would like this to be on a single page.

The 100 item limit will hit you if you go with extra item on page. With Tabular Form that should not be a limitation, unless you are exceeding the 50 item limit of APEX_APPLICATION.G_Fnn items, and the 60 column limitation of Report region with "Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)" of Dynamic region.

If the type if item is variable it only means you need a way to store the item type. Meta Data of the Meta Data.

Yes, you can do it. Updatable report/ Tabular Form query can be constructed from the Meta Data using PL/SQL Function Returning SQL Query . It will be a bit of coding in PL/SQL where you use the Meta Data and the Meta Data of the Meta Data to piece together your SELECT with the right APEX_ITEMs. It might have a performance penalty associated with it, but will not be a serious degradation.

How do I place text from Pages in InDesign

How do I place text from Pages in InDesign?

You will need to export the text from Indesign as either .rtf or .doc files and import those.
You can also cut and paste but I assume you have already tried these options and are not happy with the result, but haven't said why.

Change the source of place holder dynamically in report

Hi,
We need to assign values to place holder dynamically in report pages based on the page number.
Basic requirement is to have dynamic images (generated in before report trigger with file name having timestamp and page number) in dynamic pages (getting repeated based on number of lines in the report).
Is there any way we can have a place holder mapped to this field (Read from file, type: Image) and change the source dynamically when each page is formatted?
Any pointers for this will be helpful.
Thanks,
Ayyappa
