Character for subbullets

Just wondering if there is a standard to use for sub-bullets in professionally designed documents (such as brochures).
Hollow bullets are standard for non-pro documents, such as reports, but I have never seen them used in pro pieces designed for public.
Usually I try to rework the text to avoid sub-bullets altogether, or do not put anything in front of them, but have a case now where it looks unavoidable.
Anyone have any insight into this?

> I don't like mixing numbered items and with bulleted items.
My rule is that you use numbers when things have to happen in that order, and bullets when it doesn't matter. So steps in changing a transmission would be numbered, but a list of parts in one of the steps could be bulleted.
I prefer the en bullet, although many professional designers prefer smaller, as small as a centered period. (Never, ever use an em bullet, which makes it look like someone attacked your page with a .45 magnum).

  • Is there a Special Character for the number of pages in a document?

    I'm creating a template (in cs6) for a series of documents of variable length, and each document needs to be numbered with the format, "page A of Z." I see the special character for inserting the current page number (A) and I'd like to have the number of pages in the document (Z) added automatically as well. Is there a wildcard, special character, or script that will accomplish this? I'd rather not have to enter the number of pages manually as the value will change as these go through the editing process; I'd prefer to have the numbers update automatically. Has anybody done this before?

    Your first suggestion is the only way to capture the last page of a book that's comprised of independent document files. The last page number text variable works only within a single document.
    Anyone who wants a last page in book text variable badly enough can post a feature request at Wishform.

    You can also, much more simply, create a new text variable. There is
    specifically one for "last page number". That's much simpler.

    "last page number".

    To load that file with BULK INSERT, use this format file:
    9.0
    4
    1 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\""      0 ""    ""
    2 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\",\""   1 col1  Latin1_General_CI_AS
    3 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\",\""   2 col2  Latin1_General_CI_AS
    4 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\"\r\n"  3 col3  Latin1_General_CI_AS
    Note that the format file defines four fields while the fileonly seems to have three. The format file defines an empty field before the first quote.
    Or, since you already have a .NET program, use a stored procedure with table-valued parameter instead. I have an example of how to do this here:

  • Escape character for apostrophe ' in JDBC receiver channel

    Hi all,
    We have Proxy to JDBC scenario in our project. This interface is working fine with unicode data but when there is an apostrophe( ' ) coming in any of the field values ( ex: DOWTHERM 'J' MODEL19QAGB1G ) , the message is failing in receiver JDBC channel.
    can anyone please tell us how to handle single quote in JDBC receiver channel.
    I have read in SAP help documentation that apostrophe is a reserved character in SQL syntax and is therefore replaced by an escape character if it occurs within value strings. There is a option to JDBC receiver communication channel under "SQL SYNTAX PARAMETER"  to specify the escape character for apostrophe.
    Can any please tell us which value needs to be maintained in the channel to avoid this error.
    Regards
    Jagruthi

    Hi Prateek,
    Thanks a lot for you inputs.
    This issue is solved now. We have replaced single quote with two single quotes and then did the hasQuote mapping as described in the blog.
    /people/prateek.srivastava3/blog/2009/04/02/unicode-handling-for-ms-sql-server
    No value needs to be maintained in channel(SQL SYNTAX PARAMETER ).
    But just want to understand  the difference between replacing the ' with '' in mapping and using SQL SYNTAX PARAMETER option in communication channel.
    Both should ideally result in same  output. But it didnu2019t work when we tried with two single quotes in SQL SYNTAX PARAMETER (Escape Symbol for Apostrophe) in communication channel without doing anything in mapping.
    Regards

  • Using Escape character for Multi character delimiter for flat files in IKM

    Hi
    I have an IKM using Jython, it is working fine for single character delimiter. But as per requirement I have to use multicharacter delimiter ;" (semi colon and double quotes).
    I am taking this into variable using
    filesep = "<%=snpRef.getSrcTablesList("", "[SFILE_SEP_FIELD]", "", "")%>"
    but it is giving lexical error.
    Can anybody help me with the use of escape character in current scenario?
    Any other suggestions are also appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    A small tweak may solve your problem:
    Instead of :
    CONCATENATE wa_condstr ' bukrs = ' pa_bukrs INTO wa_condstr SEPARATED BY space.
    Use:
    CONCATENATE wa_condstr ' bukrs = ' 'PA_BUKRS' INTO wa_condstr SEPARATED BY space.
    Then use this in SELECT.
    Anyways for your answer the escape character for apostrophe is an apostrophe )
    Try this you will understand:
    DATA:
    V_STR TYPE STRING VALUE ''''.
    WRITE: V_STR.

  • Display special character for 'Artihmetic mean'

    I can't find the character for 'Arthmetic mean', it's 'x' with a line above, any ideas!?
    I've searched several font (Symbol, Wingdings etc) but didn't found that special character...!

    Oh, I do apologise. I saw the character on wiki and assumed it was a character, rather than a graphic.
    Usually, to create interesting unicode characters, you can combine diacritics. For instance, xbar is X followed by ¯;
    x̄
     (might not display on unsupported browsers)
    However LabVIEW doesn't support this, and will print x ¯ and I can't find any info on how else it might be implemented.
    You might be able to find a hack in this document
    And in the meantime, you can kudo this suggestion

  • Keychain showing different character for the password

    Hi just wanted to ask why my keychain is showing different character for my password in my AIM and Yahoo account? When i mark the show password its show plenty of letters but not the one i am really using. How can i show the right one?

    Hi Irvin,
    If you see a crazy corrupt password, I'd delete that item, ythen login yo AIM or Yahoo again to create a new one, unless you don't remember your PW, then try Keychain First Aid under the Window Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.
    Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
    If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

  • 0CHRT_ACCTS as compounding character for 0GLACCEXT

    Hi experts,
    I want to define 0GLACCEXT as a navigational attribute of 0GL_ACCOUNT.
    Because I wanna use its hierarchy in reports.
    0GL_ACCOUNT has 0CHRT_ACCTS as compounded characteristic. Example : Chrt Acct= INT, GL Account: 110000
    Should I also define 0CHRT_ACCTS as compounding character for 0GLACCEXT.
    If yes, should I fill it during extraction from 0gl_account_text  ?
    Or
    Will it be filled already during extraction from 0gl_account_hier ?
    Thnx.

    Hi,
    No you dont need to define 0GLACCEXT as a compounding of 0CHRT_ACCTS .

  • Unmappable character for encoding

    Hi --
    After upgrading to 1.5-beta-2, I'm getting compilation errors for all of my files. The error is "unmappable character for encoding ASCII". The compiler is complaining about a copyright symbol used in our file header.
    The strange thing is, I only get this error during my nightly build on my Solaris box. I can compile from the command line fine, and also from within emacs. Compiling on my Windows PC also works fine.
    We use ant scripts (version 1.6.1) to do the build, and of course there may be differences in the cron environment that matter, but I can't figure out what they might be.
    Anyone have any idea at all what I need to do to avoid this error? Thanks!
    -J

    You are right, it does seem a little silly :) But at that point the compiler is only reading the source file, it doesn't know whether the bytes are in a part of the program that ends up being parsed to a comment or not. With the lexical translation of unicode escapes to real characters it's more complicated than just keeping track of line breaks, stars, and slashes. For instance this commented "line" prints hello because \u000a is just as good as a hard line break:// Say hello: \u000a System.out.println("hello");> I'm still not sure why it compiles successfully sometimes; there must
    be something in my environment related to the default encoding that
    differs from my cron's environment.
    Maybe you normally have LANG (or at least LC_CTYPE) set by something sourced from a login script, but the same file is not getting sourced from the cron job? Or something ...

  • How can I define more than one termination character for RS-232 interface communication?

    Hi,
    I have to communicate through the PC's RS-232 interface with a microprocessor board. I am using the "Advanced Serial Write and Read.vi" out of the LabVIEW examples and it works on principle.
    My problem is the termination character: It looks like I just can set one termination character, EITHER 0xA (so LF / newline) OR 0xD (CR / carriage return), but I have the need to react on various termination characters like "<CR> <LF> <CR> <LF> OK <CR> <LF>" or "<CR> <LF> <LF>"; which I would like to set in a control (this VI will be used in a TestStand sequence).
    Is there a way to do that, so that I can set wichever termination character(s) I need? The property node in "VISA configure serial port" just accepts an unsigned integer, nothing else. Sure I can get it running with the timeout - but this is not very nice and extends testing time unnecessarily.
    Thanks & Regards!
    Regards,
    gedi
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    That would be for the write. The poster is asking about the read. For the read you will need to write your own read routine. You will basically need to use a loop and inside the loop use the VISA Bytes at Serial Port to see if there's any bytes available. Read that many bytes, and append them to a string that you build up in a shift register. After concatenation check to see if you've got the termination characters. If so, the read is done. Fairly simple. Be sure to turn off the termination character enable in the VISA Configure.

  • Problem with chinese character for dot matrix epson LQ-1600K III

    Hi All,
    I really runs out of idea about my problem now. The problem is about Print Chinese character to dot matrix printer (Epson LQ-1600K III). I tried to so many device type to solve this issue, looks like the only device type can be use are CNSAPWIN and CNEPSON with CNSONG font type. The others if I print to the printer, the chinese character became # (although in the print preview it`s okay and display correctly).
    Here is the bottleneck if I use CNEPSON:
    - if I have 2 window at the left and right position, if the left window has chinese character, the right window automatically shift right about 1.5 CM, which is damn weird!!! Can somebody help me
    - I tried so many ways to adjust the line size for my detail window (to cater positioning at pre-printed boxes), but looks the font size always become 10pt and line size cannot be adjustable (based on smartstyle).BUT if I used device type epescp2, it can be done!
    Here is the bottleneck if I use CNSAPWIN:
    - I need to create format type in windows and SAP (SPAD). and every PC that use this printer, must define the Paper size ( China Special paper size 12inch)
    - I also think this is not a good idea because as I far as I know this is not the correct way..
    Therefore, if somebody has experience about printer chinese character to dot matrix for Smartform and sapscript..please kindly help me give some advice.
    Do I use the wrong device type?
    Thanks in advance!
    Regards,
    Willy

    Hi friends , we are using the same model ....
    Are you using the chinese version operation system ? because we can print the chinese charaters without problem in LQ 1600KIII .....
    We are using CNSAPWIN device type + Frondend printing access method ....
