Copied text attributes

copied text attributes, animation, speed and font wont copy to another clip

It won't. The text will be broken in mid-sentence. Cumbersome to work with etc. Plus you don't have the styles translate across. Which the op wants.
A more elegant solution perhaps would be to move all the text to the upper most layers, where possible.
Turn off the text layers and save the layout etc. as eps or pdf, and open whichever one you choose in Illustrator.
If you just want the text with styles - colours etc. then do the following
Then in InDesign turn off all layers except the text layers.
Export this text to RTF.
Then in illustrator import the text using File>Place and choose the RTF - styles will be transferred with the RTF text.

  • Copy text attributes using shortcut in ID CS 4!

    Hi!
    I want to copy text attributes using shortcut keys. Is it possible? It is possible in MX Freehand.
    Here, I want to copy attribute (Magenta colour) and apply to another word (Magenta colour).
    Thanks.

    You use the Eyedropper too for this. The shortcut is i, unmodified, so you can’t call it while editing text. But you can click on the tool. You then click once to load the eyedropper with the desired formatting, then click wherever you want it applied. Click and Drag, like selecting text, to apply formatting to a word or words. I have not tried editing the shortcut so it can be called while editing text, but you can try. Go to Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts, and go to Tool under Product Area.

  • Eyedropper tool not copying text attributes

    Hello,
    I am editing long documents for work. I have applied paragraph and character styles to all of my copy. I'd like to use the eyedropper tool to apply these said styles, but everytime I go to copy a text attribute the eyedropper appears "Full" as if it has copied the desired attributes. However, when I go to apply the attributes to other text, nothing happens. I am still in the trial version of the CS5 Suite on a PC running XP. Anybody out there know what's going on?
    thanks

    1. Highlight the text you want to change with the text tool.
    2. Select the eyedropper tool.
    3. Use the eyedropper to click on the format you want the text to be.
    Alternatively:
    1. Select the eyedropper tool.
    2. Click on the text with the format you want.
    3. Use the eyedropper to highlight the text you want changed.
    I think you were expecting the first click of the eyedropper to select the text and the second to select the formatting. It's actually the opposite: First click selects the format, second click selects the text to be changed.

  • Copying text attributes bwt paragraphs

    Back in the Xpress days, there was a key command which allowed you to click on a para of text, holding a combo of keys pressed, then click onto different para of text and the style attributes of the former would be taken by the latter.
    Can Indesign do this?
    I've been meaning to ask this question for years now! Just got a loads of text to change and remembered this old trick from Xpress days.
    Cheers

    If you apply a character style to the text first (say if you have "this text is supposed to be bold"
    Then make a character style called Bold and apply it to the word "bold"
    Then use the Eyedropper tool to sample that and apply that same Character Style to whatever text you like.
    Ps - if you double click the Eyedropper tool you get all the options associated with what the tool will sample, so you can tweak to your desire.

  • Copy/paste text attributes

    I have inherited a piece with subtitles that were done with the wrong settings in the control tab. It is easy to copy/paste attributes on the motion tab, but how do I make these match without re-typing them all, or painstakingly change each setting on the control tab.
    Thanks

    painstakingly change each setting on the control tab.
    Painstakingly is your only option other than using something like this: http://www.xmedit.com/

  • Why do italics drop out when I copy text to Thunderbird messages?

    Whenever I copy text to or from Thunderbird, attributes such as boldface and italics usually (but perhaps not always) drop out. I can always italicize text when It's in a message. What must I do to make copying already italicized text possible?

  • Copy text range

    Hello,
    I would like to copy a text range from one location to another without messing up the users paste board.
    The copied text needs to have the same attributes as the source text.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    you can use IComposeScanner to get the text and ITextModelCmds to insert it.

  • CS3 copying paragraph attributes

    Quark had a keyboard shortcut for copying paragraph attributes from another paragraph in the same thread. You would click in the paragraph you wanted to copy from, click the shift and option keys and then click in the paragraph you wanted to change. No eyedropper, no scrolling thru a long list of styles. Does InDesign have one? I have not been able to find it.
    Thanks!

    Mostly it's just less overhead to do it the XPress way. Your cursor is already in the text you want to change and you can see the subhead it needs to be styled like 3 paragraphs up on the page. Control-option-click and you're done.
    For the production team, who basically makes money on how fast and how accurately they can set the stuff, I don't think $20 is a wasted investment to keep them in the groove. We're talking about a department where you get chastised if you use the mouse to select a menu or palette item that has a keyboard command associated, because moving your mouse is about 10x slower and harder on your carpal tunnel.
    Maybe for more casual users it's not worth it. It depends on how much you value your speed.

  • How can I copy text from PDF and include the source filename in the pasted selection?

    I'm a biologist and frequently cut-and-paste notes from PDFs of scientific articles.  I name all of the PDF articles with their PubMed ID, a short unique identifier (e.g. 19397482.pdf).  When I take notes, I will select a few sentences from the PDF and then paste them into a text editor for later reference. 
    Can anyone suggest a method or script that would allow me to paste the copied text with the Pubmed filename included in a single action?  I would want the pasted output it to look something like this, with the filename appended to the end:
    Of the transcripts that were significantly different, there was a greater number of transcripts that were down-regulated in the IVC embryos (380) than the number of transcripts that were up-regulated (208).  [20668257.pdf]
    This would really help me to properly cite information sources during the writing process.  I know there are bibliography managers that might be able to do something like this, but I prefer to read the PDF articles directly in Preview and select the text as I am reading. 
    Thanks very much for any suggestions / ideas.
    jjw

    To copy and paste in a single action:
    tell application "Preview" to activate
    tell application "System Events" to tell process "Preview"
        -- Get the PubMed ID:
        get the title of the front window
        set thePubMedID to word 1 of result
        -- Copy the selected text to the clipboard:
        keystroke "c" using {command down} -- ⌘C
        delay 0.25 -- adjust if necessary
        -- Add the PubMed ID to the contents of the clipboard:
        set theNotes to the clipboard
        set the clipboard to (theNotes & space & "[" & thePubMedID & ".pdf]")
    end tell
    tell application "Notational Velocity" to activate
    tell application "System Events"
        -- Paste the contents of the clipboard to the end of the Notational Velocity document
        key code 125 using command down -- ⌘↓
        keystroke return & return
        keystroke "v" using {command down} -- ⌘V
    end tell

  • Can't Copy text unless console is opened before applet with JTextField

    If an applet uses JTextFields, it is impossible to copy text from the console to the clipboard (or anywhere else) if the console is opened after the applet.
    See http://demo.capmon.dk/~pvm/nocopy/nocopy.html for a working applet with source and class file to try it out on...
    So if something bad has happened, and there are hints in the console e.g. a stack trace, it all has to be retyped by hand, since all Copy or export is impossible...
    Does anyone know of a workaround for this? I'd like to be able to e.g. copy stack traces to bug reports.
    Try these test cases:
    * Close all browser windows. Open a browser and visit this page. After the page with this applet has loaded, then open the console with "Tools/Sun Java Console" (or "Tools/Web Development/Java Console" in Mozilla). Select some text in the console. There is no way to put this text on the clipboard; the "Copy" button doesn't work, and neither does CTRL+Insert, CTRL+C or anything else.
    * Close all browser windows. Open a browser window no some non-java page and then open the console with "Tools/Sun Java Console" (or "Tools/Web Development/Java Console" in Mozilla). Then visit this page. Select some text in the console. Now the "Copy" button does work, enabling "export" of e.g. stack traces to other applicaitons e.g. email.
    The difference is which is opened first: The console or the applet. If you look at the very rudimentary Java source code, it is the mere creation of a JTextField is what disables or breaks the Copy functionality.
    I've tried this on Windows XP with IE 6.0 and Mozilla 1.3 and they behave exactly the same. The JVM is Sun's 1.4.2 and I've tried 1.4.1_02 also with the same behavior. I've also tried javac from both 1.4.2 and 1.4.1_01

    Hi
    I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
    The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
    This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
    What can I do?
    thank you a lot.

    There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
    - Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
    - Adobe Reader (free)
    Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

  • Different types of text in one text attribute for a component?

    If i have a JSP or JSF component, whatever it is, lets say it has the attribute "text" or even "value". I can set the text to whatever i want such as: text="name joe, age 12"
    My question is: Is there a way to have the words "joe" and "12" to be different colors/fonts/etc then the words "name" and "age"?
    I need this to be all in the text attribute, so i can't have them seperate. How could i write a function and call this function from text to achieve this? any help will be appriciated

    This is not related to Java.
    There are JavaScript and HTML DOM tutorials at w3schools.com. There are JavaScript/DHTML forums at webdeveloper.com and dynamicdrive.com.

  • How do I copy text from one layer to  another?

    I have Googled this but not a single answer seems to work.
    I am using Photoshop CS4 on OS X 10.6.7.
    OK, so  I  have a layer that  has some text in it.  I would like to  be able to  simply copy that  text  from one layer  to  another, but this seems to  be impossible as the Edit Paste menu item is grayed out after I have copied it in to the clipboard.  I can paste it into  the SAME layer, but not into another layer.
    This is how I am trying to  do  this.
    In the layer  with the text, click on the "T" icon to  the left.
    Click on the text, in the layer that I  want to  copy. 
    I select the text (either  by  clicking and dragging or pressing Command-A).
    Next I press Command-C.
    Then I  click on the layer In the Layer Panel) where I want to  paste the text.
    Pressing Command-V is impossible because the Edit-Paste menu option is grayed out!!!!
    WHY??????
    Perhaps more importantly, HOW do I copy text  from one layer to  another?

    First thing you can simply right click on the Text Layer and choose Duplicate Layer.  But that will create a new Text Lay
    er identical to the one you have.
    To answer your question in your case....  Create the Text Layer.   Make a New Layer.  Or have the layer you want to paste into visible.
    Highlight the text layer in the Layer Palette and Ctrl+Click (Win) Cmd+Click(Mac) so that you see marching ants walking around your text.
    Edit>Copy.
    Then highlight your Layer you want to paste into and hit Edit>Paste or Cmd+V / Ctrl+V.

  • I need to be able to copy text of a Gmail email I have sent and paste it in a new email when using firefox as my browser

    hi everyone
    I recently upgraded to the new firefox version. When using the previous version. i would copy text in emails I had sent and paste it into new emails. It saved me much time>
    I am totally unable to do this with the newer version of the browser. There is no edit function on the tool bar that allows me to copy and paste.
    any suggestions as to how I can cut and paste or save documents to use over again?
    thanks

    Hi, I had the same issue. My solution was to take the freeware-tool clickto.
    So I'm now able to take any text, copy it and past it via clickto into a new mail.
    [http://www.clicktoapp.com Clickto ]expands your copy-paste feature by showing you some "satellites" after doing the copy action. These "satellites" now will give you some opportunities to paste your copied content, for example a picture to facebook or a text to a new mail on gmail with just 1 single click.
