Complex formated Text from Databse to textmember

Hello Forum,
I try to save a complex rtf formated text field into a field
of a database, called Valentina. But after writing the text back to
the text field, all formatings of the text are overwritten. So I
tried to save the rft-format sequences to the databease, too. But
now they appear in the text field, too. Is it basically possible to
save the text with all his attributes into the database and write
it back to the text field?
Best regards
Alexander

Hello Udo,
thanks a lot for your help. I tested it yesterday evening
first without Valentina. It works fine. The main problem was that I
mixed .rtf with .text or .value, too. So the rft format appeared in
the text member. My last programming jobs with director is about
seven years ago, except the small part, two years ago. My next step
will be the test with Valentina.
Best regards from Fulda
Alexander

How do I use Dreamweaver CC 2014.1 Live View to copy complex formatted text into web page?

Since Design View has been removed from Fluid Grid Layouts, and could be removed completely in next upgrade, I cannot use Live View to place complex text into my web pages.
Our business requires the listing of complex job descriptions on our web pages. Design View worked fine, Live View does not. Both examples are noted below.

Obviously, as seen above, I'm doing something wrong or Live View does not do all the functions that Design View use to do. I realize I can still access Design View in non-Fluid Grid Layout documents and that is my current work-around. I copy from my Word file into Design View available in non-Fluid, then copy that code into my Fluid Grid Layout document, not real efficient use of my time. And, even that work-around may not be available after the next upgrade.

Hans thank you for your reply and attention to this matter. Moreover, with your steeped expertise I do not, in any fashion, intend to be flippant or capricious.
However, I do not believe the reply is on point since I'm not discussing the insertion of an HTML tag/element; but rather, the placing of complex formatted text into my various web pages.
Design View and 2014.1 Live View seem to serve different functions. That is, Design View, for us, serves as a highly sophisticated HTML5 code generator that allows us to properly display complex formatted text that originally is created as a Word docx file. As I noted in my original post, the complex formatted text from the Word file is then pasted into Design View and thus properly renders on the web page. I invite you to try this yourself. Simply copy my properly formatted text in my original post (that can be found at "Using Design View the web page rendered this way:") to a Word file, and it will retain the complex formatting, then copy that Word file text to both Design View and 2014.1 Live View files. Please apprise me of your results.
Discussion has been had in at least two separate threads on the Design View disappearance in Fluid Grid. In https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1597260 staff member Lalita wrote "It would be helpful for us if you list the issues you are seeing with fluid grid live view editing." And in https://forums.adobe.com/message/6807088#6807088 staff member Subhadeep wrote "If you can list down the workflows you are trying while editing in Live View & the issues you are facing in doing so, it will help us understand what is amiss & suggest alternative workflows to do the same." I believe I've pointed out issues when attempting to use Live View for functions or work flow that customarily had been done in Design View.
Being a CC subscriber, if someone can provide me with a workflow using other additional Adobe products to get my complex formatted text from Word ultimately to my Dreamweaver web page, be it an image insert or whatever, I would take the suggestions.
The difference in the coding of my example in my original post is as follows.

It is readily apparent that Design View is a much needed code generator in the Dreamweaver product. Live View serves completely other, and needed, purposes. Therefore, I still, after all the forum discussions, do not understand why Design View has been removed from Fluid Grid.
Again Hans thank you for your reply. But unless I'm missing something, citation to the links you provided does not solve my problem. And that problem is this: If Design View is on its way out and thus will be completely removed from Dreamweaver at some point, then how do I provide my information (i.e. complex executive job descriptions) on my website?
Apparently a vote is taking place https://forums.adobe.com/ideas/3922 on the issue of placing Design View back into Fluid Grid. I do not understand why the need for two rather disjunctive functionalities are at the mercy of the democratic process. These are matters of engineering principles not "town hall gatherings".

How Do I Display HTML Formatted Text From A Data Table In Crystal Reports?

I'm creating reports in Crystal XI. The information being displayed in the reports comes from data tables where the text is formatted in HTML.
I've worked with Crystal Reports enough to know that HTML text pulled from a data table doesn't appear in Crystal the same way it does in a web browser. Crystal Reports ignores all the tags (...unless I'm missing something...) and just displays the text.
Someone far more Crystal savy than I (...who I don't have access to...) came up with a Formula Field workaround that tricks Crystal Reports into displaying some basic HTML tags. Here's that workaround:

QUESTION - Does any similar workaround exist so I can display an HTML Table in Crystal Reports? If not, is there any way to display HTML formatted text from a data table in Crystal Reports as it would appear in a web browser?

Hi Steven,
To display html text in Crystal Reports follows these steps.
1. Right click on the field and select Paragraph tab.
2. Under 'Text Interpretation' select 'HTML Text' and click OK.
I have tried using the way,but it never works.So reply me if there is any way to solve the issue

Copy and paste user formatted text from Filemaker to...

I need to copy user formatted text from Filemaker to any text program that will maintain the formatting. Subsequently it will be going to an rtf. I have limited knowledge of Filemaker and Applescript (and I am not sure that Applescript is the right approach). This is a repetitive process with frequently changing data and users who use italics on a word one day and then decide to bold it the next day. I have created an Applescript that copies and pastes the text into either TextEdit or Microsoft Word but the user formatting is always lost. It is frustrating that I can use Apple-C and Apple-V and the formatting is maintained. But I need to automate this process. Here is a copy of my humble attempt at an Applescript to do the job. it copies the text but not the formatting.
tell application "FileMaker Developer"
open "MacintoshHD:Users:stuart:Desktop:Practice.fp7"
set the clipboard to record 2 of table 1 of database 1 as styled text
end tell
tell application "TextEdit"
activate
set the text of document 1 to (get the clipboard as text) as string
end tell
tell application "Microsoft Word"
activate
set myRange to create range active document start 0 end 0
insert text (get the clipboard) at myRange
end tell

I'm not familiar with 'styled text'- which does not mean much other than it's on a very long list of things I don't know. But I do know you can cut several steps out here:
If your script works so far then you can clean it up:
tell application "FileMaker Developer"
open "MacintoshHD:Users:stuart:Desktop:Practice.fp7"
set mytext to record 2 of table 1 of database 1 as styled text
end tell
tell application "Microsoft Word"
activate
set myRange to create range active document start 0 end 0
insert text (mytext) at myRange
end tell
Also try:
set mytext to contents of record 2 of table 1 of database 1 as styled text

How can I export formatted text from a string indicator?

Does someone know how I can export formatted text (i.e., parts of the text have different formatting, such as color, fontsize, etc.) from a string indicator? Using copy/paste does not work, as it only exports unformatted plain text.

Hello Sparti,
Thank you for your suggestions, they are all very useful, and I plan to use the HTML feature under Report Generation to export the formatted text from Labview. However, I am still not sure how I can extract the formatted text from a *string indicator* and transfer it to one of those VIs, so that it can be exported to other applications. Let me give some more specific info on what I am trying to achieve: I am monitoring the communication between two pieces of equipment. A string indicator shows all the data flow, with different colors for data coming from different instruments. I managed to do that by using a property node and playing with the selection and font color properties. Now, if you just wire the output of the string indicator, the formatting is gone and all you get is just plain black text (for instance, try to programmatically transfer the formatted text from one string indicator to a different string indicator and you will see that the formatting is not preserved). Even if you try the "brute force" method of manually selecting and copying the text in the indicator and pasting it to Word, LV does not export the formatting. But, if you paste *within* LV (for example, paste it to a string constant in your diagram), then it works. To extract the formatted string from the indicator, I also tried to use a property node, but without success. I am trying to avoid duplicating part of my code to generate the same color-coding scheme on a report. It would be way easier to be able to transfer the formatted text from the string indicator. This is particularly annoying, because the information is there, stored in the data structure associated with the string indicator. But how can I put my hands on it? Any ideas?

Printing formatted text from an Oracle form

I'm trying to print formatted text from an Oracle form without using the standard menu print. The print button on the menu prints out the text and the actual form. I just want to print the text that is displayed on the form. I would like to add a print button to the form. Is there a print function or event in PL/SQL?
Thanks in advance for any help!!
Jason

If you are interested in the content of the field you can loop over them (next_item built in) and write their content into a file using the TEXT_IO built in.
for nicer outputs check out Oracle Reports on OTN.

Copy&paste formatted text from the web

Hello,
I'm from IT department. Employees graphic gave me a difficult task. They need to copy text from the web browser which is underlined, into Illustrator. The problem is that while pasting the text loses it's formatting. I found the solution about pasting the text into MS Word and then import it AI. Unfortunatly they not accept that way, the said "we need something more easy, it's possible, someone told us". Is there any other way to copy text from the web browser to illustrator with keeping format? Maybe plugins? I'm googling about 2 days about it and didn't find any other solution. Please help me.

thank you
unfortunately it's not good solution because:
1.) "omg, too much clicking, we need ctrl+c ctrl+v"
2.) They change the text, change size, color, background etc in AI. When AI imports pdf all letters looks like seperate objects (it's hard to explain for me, because I'm not familiar with AI and my english is not good enough)

Return formatted text from LOV

I have text stored in a table as a varchar2 with carriage returns in the text using utl_tcp.CRLF. This works fine when I send an email using this text thru a procedure. I am trying to load this text to an unbound item (defined as char) thru an LOV created using Designer (web pl/sql page). The lov lists the text in read-only as formatted, but when I load it to the unbound item, it loses the formatting. I have tried to make a post-gen change to add WSGL.preformat to the javascript:passback function, but I am still not seeing the formatting in the unbound item on my page. Does anyone have any ideas (including post-gen changes to the package)how I might accomplish this?? Any ideas are welcome.

I suspected that...
Maybe someone has an idea for the following:
I need a generic solution for a reference table (based on table name, key and value attribute names). In a function I generate this query statement.
TEXT_FROM_LOV_QUERY would be just fine for me, for it lets me pass a statement as a string and providing me a solution with key/value pairs. However, due to the restrictions above I cannot use that function.
Instead, I'd probably have to join the reference table somehow. I would have suggested the following
SELECT e.empno, e.ename, d.display_value
FROM emp e,
f_get_generic_ref_table('dept', 'deptno', 'dname') d
WHERE e.deptno = d.return_valuewhile the function f_get_generic_ref_table generates me a string like
'SELECT deptno, return_value, dname display_value
FROM dept'obviously that doesn't work since the function f_get_generic_ref_table only returns a statement as VARCHAR.
Any ideas how I could solve that?
Thanks,
Michael

Copy formatted text from Pages into Mac Mail loses formatting

Hi,
I have a document template I use in Pages that eventually gets copied into an email for sending (rather than attached, it's the actual email body).
Issue is, when I copy from Pages into Mac Mail, the formatting is horrible.
The closest I have to a workaround, though still not 100% (just way better) is to Export the Pages file to Word format, open the document in Word, copy the text there and paste it into Mac Mail.
It can't be this awkward, can it?
Thanks!

Couple of options:
Use command shift 4 and draw around the table with the mouse curser ~ a png picture of your table will be on your desktop ~ use attach in mail and tick send windows friendly attachments too.
You could also save Numbers as pdf ( Under the print option) and attach that instead.
No doubt there are other ways.

These texts are very long and formmated.
Now I need another Z program in order to download all the stored texts in an excel file.
I have a program which is able to download an internal table to an excel. The problem is that
it only works with short texts. How could I download a long text that I get using READ_TEXT function

Importing text from Word file while keeping formatting

I have text set up to convert to Goudy Oldstyle. When I try to import formatted text from a Word file, the italics don't translate to Goudy Oldstyle italic. It becomes Goudy Italic and then reads as a conflict. How would I be able to reformat just the italics?

Find Font is also in CS2 (Type > Find Font). Very easy, very simple.
In CS2, Find Font doesn't have the same Redefine Style functionality
that it does in CS3, but you can still find a missing font or font
variant and replace it with something that's not missing. You would have
to redefine styles manually, but you can use Find Font to figure out
which styles need redefining. (That is, if you've used styles; we don't
know yet because you haven't said.)

Can no longer past formatted text into Mail in iOS 5...

With iOS 4.x on my iPad, I was able to past in rich, formatted text from other apps. So I could compose an email with colored text, different fonts/sizes, bulleted lists, etc. in another app and past it into Mail. It would keep all of it's formatting.
With the upgrade to iOS 5, this no longer works. Everything I paste into Mail has no formatting. I saw this first on my iPad 2 but I just tried on my iPhone 4S and the result was the same.
Even if I receive colored text in an email, I can't copy it from one place in the email to another and keep the color format.
Is there some new setting that is disabled that stops me from doing this? Is anybody else seeing this problem?
Thank you,
Roman

I am using indesign CS2 and i'm trying to import a Word document into a new chapter for a book i'm laying out. it's about 30 pages, but there are at least 80 foot notes. i'm able to get about 1/2 of the document with the footnotes to flow correctly, then EVERYTHING disappears. the only way i've been able to get the remaining text to appear is by adding characters to the text. i'll hit "vvvvvvvvvvvv" a bunch of times and "magically" a little chunk of text and it's footnotes appears. then the ole disappearing act happens. so i do it again. i'm able to get all the text to appear finally, but when i delete the "vvvvvvvvvv" from the places i inserted them, the text disappears again. i have no idea why this is happening or how to fix it. any ideas?
thanks so much,
travis

Copying text from Photoshop to InDesign

Dear InDesign Community,
I am working on updating a 60 page .pdf which was is extremelly blurry and unsearchable because each page was individually created in Photoshop (CS6) at size 8.5x11 and then put into a 6x7 sized document via Microsoft Publisher ( I weep as I write this sentene). I am currently rebuilding the file in InDesign and I was wondering if there was any way to copy and paste the formatted text from Photoshop cs6 to Indesign cs6 without losing the formatting. The end product is supposed to be a good quality pdf for web that is also a searchable document. Please advise.

No, sort of. If you can live with the text EXACTLY as it is in
Photoshop, kill all the layer except the text and save as PDF from
Photoshop. Place the PDF in InDesign and it will retain its vector
properties and formatting. You will not be able to edit anything.

Exporting Editable text from Freehand into Photoshop?

Anybody out there know how to do this? I use Freehand MX and would like to bring my text "live" into Photoshop to edit there if need be. I use Photoshop CS2.

Use 'Copy Special' and Paste.
1. Insert FreeHand text tool in text block and drag to highlight the text.
2. Edit>Special>Copy Special>Unformatted Text.
3. In Photoshop, with text tool, drag to draw a new text box.
4. Paste. Text will take on currently active Photoshop attributes of font, size, color, etc.
I don't know of a way to get editable formatted text from FH to Photoshop. However, if you have Illustrator CS4, open the FH file there. Highlight the text and copy. In Photoshop, paste into a new text box. Font, color, and perhaps some other formatting will be preserved. I haven't used text with tabs, kerning or other text formatting attributes.
