Copy & Paste from PS CS3 to DW CS3?

Hi Everyone,
I have my nice shiny new copy of Creative Suite 3 (Design
Premium) and have tried an eagerly anticipated feature with
absolutely no luck! I've been trying to copy an image ( small
photo) from PS into DW. Sometimes DW grays out the paste menu item
like it doesn't think there's anything on the clipboard (Win Vista
Business) and other times it allows the paste, but all I get in DW
is an alphanumeric string like "WCD07". Has anyone else had this
issue? Any ideas for a fix/work-around?
Thanks!
Bill

Yes.

Copying objects from Illustrator CS3 to FreeHand 11.0.2

Working on a Mac in OSX 10.4.11, I was able to select and copy objects in an open Illustrator CS2 file and paste them into an open FreeHand 11.0.2 file, where they would be fully editable. After migrating to OSX 10.6.2 and upgrading to CS3, this no longer works - the objects selected and copied from Illustrator either do not appear (only corner indicators are visible) or a pale version appears as an uneditable low-rez image with funny colors....
Because there are so many missing features in Illustrator, it's important for me to be able to work back and forth between the two apps. Has anyone been able to achieve this (formerly) simple interactivity?

I got the following post from Danny Haas:
If you go to Edit>Special>Paste Special and then select AI/EPS from the list
it should paste just fine. It works well for me.
Worked for me too, although text was not imported as editable text. To do
that had to special paste the text separately as unformatted text, and then
reformat in FH.

Subject: Copying objects from Illustrator CS3 to FreeHand 11.0.2
I skipped AICS3, but now use AICS4 for some tasks.
The only solution I've found is to save the AI CS4 file as AI 8, open that
in FHMX and copy from there.

Problems doing copy/paste from Flash to Illustrator

This is a problem I've had since Flash 8: when doing a
copy/paste from Flash to Illustrator (on Windows), there's extreme
degradation of the artwork, sometimes to the extent that no actual
art is even copied. All the curves seem to be approximated with
straight line segments, but at some point it just seems to give up
even trying, leaving an unidentifiable blob for most of the object.
As I said, sometimes it doesn't even copy anything at all -- all
that shows up after pasting into Illustrator is an empty group.
The weird thing is that this process worked fine in Flash MX
2004. What could possibly have changed? I was sure with CS3 it
would be fixed, but it wasn't. I haven't tried Illustrator CS4 yet,
but copying from Flash CS4 to Illustrator CS3 produces the same
problem.
I've seen a few other reports of this problem in other
forums, but I've encountered it on every install of Flash and
Illustrator I've tried (admittedly, all Windows machines, but three
or four different ones, both XP or Vista). Can anyone here confirm
that this problem exists or doesn't exist on their computer? To
test it, create a piece of art with plenty of curves and several
colors in Flash, then copy and paste it into an illustrator
document.
If this problem is as widespread as my experience seems to
indicate it is, why hasn't it been fixed in two major revisions of
the software? Is Adobe even aware of it? If not, how can I let them
know? I'm getting majorly sick of having to deal with it.
Illustrator used to be a much larger part of my animation process,
but now I can't use it how I really want to because of the bad copy
and paste functionality.

Hi,
The integration between Flash CS3 and Illustrator means you
can copy objects from Illustrator to Flash and i think if you copy
from Flash to illustrator or Photoshop, you would not get a good
results.
You can solve your problem by exporting your Flash work as
.AI.
Your idea about the ability to copy from Flash to Illustrator
is a good idea although Illustrator can not read some of the Flash
imported information correctly. But it is still a good enahcement
idea. There is a link where you can add suggestions but I do not
remember it and I am replying using mobile, so my browsing
capabilities is limited.
I will try to post the link here when I got to my back normal
connection
Thanks alot!!

Not precise vector copy&paste from Illus cs4 to flash cs4

Hi,
does somebody knows if there is a solution to that or does somebody have an explanation to this ...
I have a really complex shape made in Illustrator cs4 that I need to import in flash cs4. When I import my shape in flash , my shape doesn't keep the exactly, precisely same shape. I try to reduce the amount of point with illustrator with Object->path->simplify ... It's help but not enough. My shape is to complex to re-draw one by one every single points as the original.
I did some test as in Flash cs3 and this problem dosen't exist. In cs4 you can test it do a circle , the smallest you can and zoom , you will see that the circle is not a circle anymore. (cs3 does't do it)
Help

You can copy/paste from Illy to ID by selecting the text with the type tool in Illy and then pasting it into ID. You will not be able to maintain the formatting. If you want to maintain the appearance the text will be converted to outlines.
If you need to get anything other than very simple objects from Illy to ID then you should save as AI and use the file > place command to place those objects as linked graphics into ID.
Your closing statement is irrelevant. Whether you like it or not, this is the way it is.

I cant copy/paste from an article to my web site, get a Mozilla Rich Text Editing demo page will not work.HELP

Tried to copy/paste from an article to my web site and got a "cannot copy /paste " warning and was directed to a security perferences site that said that Mozilla Rich Text Editing demo page will not work.
Tried to find my Firefox profile directory using the start menu and was directed to hit enter to go to web. Feel like i am getting run around.

Let's start with something very basic, and that is, you do not need to use the paste button on most websites. The button just reads what is on your clipboard and sticks it into the form. You can do that yourself using Ctrl+v or right-click>Paste.
For your security, I suggest using those standard Windows keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+x cut, Ctrl+c copy, Ctrl+v paste) or the context menu.
Occasionally you will find a paste button that runs a clean-up script or otherwise does something useful. That is where the (admittedly a bit complicated) instructions come in handy.
To open your active profile folder, you can use:
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Which help article are you using for the modifications?
Finally, please be cautious in opening up your clipboard to sites. You may have stuff you copied from other pages or other programs that you do not want to share with most sites.

Copy-Paste From Other Apps (like PPT 2004) Into CS5 Broken ? - OS 10.6.3

Hi,
New Mac, so to avoid problems went for the new post-Snow Leopard Photoshop CS5. Oops.
Copy-Paste From Other Apps Into CS5
Pasting images/photos from Powerpoint 2004 to CS5, I experienced the exact problem posted slightly off topic by james norrington in the thread "CS5 does not let me copy & paste file names." It was not answered and is quoted here:
---"I am using CS5 Photoshop and Office 2004 on 10.6.3. I was using 10.4 until a few weeks ago and it worked and still works with other macs in the office using CS4. I can copy and paste from powerpoint but it cuts the pictures in half and does not know what the res. of the image is. Also when I go from photoshop to powerpoint the image res. is also not preserved."---
Besides that, I also found copy-paste from a digital camera photo.jpg from Preview to CS5 doesn't respect the resolution either. Directly opening the photo into PS CS5, fine.
From the earliest PS, always was able to copy any image to clipboard, have a new document dialog box come up pre-filled with correct original WxH pixels, original resolution, color mode, etc., and just paste into the new document - perfect fit (even the oddball PPT 576 ppi). Now a shift and cut-off. Don't have PPT 2008 to test pasting from there.
I have also found that a similar but less severe image cut off happens when copy-paste from PPT -> Preview, or -> TextEdit, or -> drag and drop picture clipping.
Opening Image File in CS5
Even an original 300 dpi tiff file wrongly went to 72 ppi etc. when opened directly into CS5. Converted the file to a jpeg in Preview - that jpeg file could be opened into CS5 correctly, reconverted the jpeg to TIFF in Preview, still opened OK (not counting loss of image quality). Still couldn't copy paste from either document into CS5 correctly. One difference I noticed in the converted files was that more information was available in the Preview file info. Maybe that made the difference in opening the file correctly.
I'd welcome any suggestions. Thanks.

Thanks to Chris for the explanation of the dueling clipboards.
It's still frustrating, but since I still have a CS2 license from the dead G4 the current Mac replaced, I can try that (wonder if they can coexist), or maybe I could use an older Mac for this particular situation.
As for the .tif file, it was generated by a Mac OS 8.5 era image capture program that we are forced to use, and the analysis was that the app does not properly encode the TIFF tags to acceptable standards. Preview 5.0.2 just guessed right from the little information that was included - but it didn't work when tried with Preview 3.0.9 on an OS 10.4 Mac. So this was a unique situation.

How to find the folder (EBS_R12) in OEL 5 after copy/paste from Windows 7 ?

Folks,
Hello. I have just installed Oracle Linux 5 as Guest OS on the top of VMPlayer. Host OS is Windows 7.
I downloaded Oracle E-Business Suite R12 from edelivery into Windows 7 in a folder(EBS_R12) on my LapTop screen.
In order to install EBS R12 into Oracle Linux 5, I copy/paste the folder EBS_R12 into Oracle Linux 5 screen. The file size is about 50GB. After coply/paste is completed successfully, I cannot find where is the folder (EBS_R12) in the Guest OS Oracle Linux 5.
Can any folks tell me where is the folder (EBS_R12) in Oracle Linux 5 after copy/paste from Windows 7 ?

Hi,
After coply/paste is completed successfully, I cannot find where is the folder (EBS_R12) in the Guest OS Oracle Linux 5.Was the copy/paste successful.
If yes then you can do the following
#find / -name EBS_R12 -type d -print
(Assuming you copied the folder "EBS_R12" , But not its contents).
Thanks

Extract All Embedded Files in All Folders and Save Each? Copy/Paste from PDF to Word?

I have most of what I need here, but I’m missing 2 important pieces.
#1) I want to copy/paste from all PDF files in a folder and paste the copied data into a single Word file.
It works fine if I have ONLY Word docs in my folder. When I have PDF files and Word files, the contents of the Word files are copied in fine, but the contents of the PDF files seem to come in as Chinese, and there is no Chinese in
the PDF, so I have no idea where that’s coming from.
#2) I want to extract all embedded files (in all my Word files) and save the extracted/opened file into the folder. Some embedded files are PDFs and some are Excel files.
Here the code that I’m working with now.
Sub Foo()
Dim i As Long
Dim MyName As String, MyPath As String
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Documents.Add
MyPath = "C:\Users\001\Desktop\Test\" ' <= change this as necessary
MyName = Dir$(MyPath & "*.*") ' not *.* if you just want doc files
On Error Resume Next
Do While MyName <> ""
If InStr(MyName, "~") = 0 Then
Selection.InsertFile _
FileName:="""" & MyPath & MyName & """", _
ConfirmConversions:=False, Link:=False, _
Attachment:=False
Dim Myshape As InlineShape
Dim IndexCount As Integer
IndexCount = 1
For Each Myshape In ActiveDocument.InlineShapes
If Myshape.AlternativeText = PDFname Then
ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(IndexCount).OLEFormat.Activate
End If
IndexCount = IndexCount + 1
Next
Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdPageBreak
End If
On Error Resume Next
Debug.Print MyName
MyName = Dir ' gets the next doc file in the directory
Loop
End Sub
If this has to be done using 2 Macros, that’s fine.
If I can do it in 1, that’s great too.
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

Hi ryguy72,
>>When I have PDF files and Word files, the contents of the Word files are copied in fine, but the contents of the PDF files seem to come in as Chinese, and there is no Chinese in the PDF, so I have no idea where that’s coming from.<<
Based on the code, you were insert the file via the code Selection.InsertFile. I am trying to reproduce this issue however failed. I suggest that you insert the PDF file manually to see whether this issue relative to the specific file. You can insert PDF
file via Insert->Text->Object->Text from file.
If this issue also could reproduced manually, I would suggest that you reopen a new thread in forum to narrow down whether this issue relative to the specific PDF file or Word application.
>> I want to extract all embedded files (in all my Word files) and save the extracted/opened file into the folder. Some embedded files are PDFs and some are Excel files.<<
We can save the embedded spreadsheet via Excel object model. Here is an example that check the whether the inlineshape is an embedded workbook and save it to the disk for you reference:
If Application.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.ClassType = "Excel.Sheet.12" Then
Application.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.DoVerb xlPrimary
Application.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.Object.SaveAs "C:\workbook1.xlsx"
Application.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1).OLEFormat.Object.Close
End If
And since the Word object model doesn't provide API to save the embedded PDF, I would suggest that you get more effective response from PDF support forum to see whether it supports automation. If yes, we can export the PDF as embedded spreadsheet like code
absolve.
Hope it is helpful.

Problem of spaces with copy-paste from Acrobat Reader X (10.1.0)

Hi all,
I have a problem when doing a copy-paste from a text in Acrobat Reader X (10.1.0). When I paste, all spaces are erased.
It does not come from the document as the problem is for every pdf.
Do someone have an idea of where the problem comes from ?
Thanks and cheers
Julien

This is not the forum for Reader, but the problem probably lies with the way the file was created, and/or with the fonts used in it.

Copy & Paste from Illustrator to InDesign CS4

Hi,
I am aware that there are issues when copying/pasting from Illustrator to InDesign, in particular:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/InDesign/6.0/WSa285fff53dea4f8617383751001ea8cb3f-6bdda.html
I have the following problems:
1- I copy and paste text from Illustrator to InDesign on the same platform and some (not all) of the text is converted to outline in InDesign. The same font is available to both applications. Why this behaviour?
2- I copy and paste objects containing text from Illustrator to InDesign and some of the objects appear to have moved respective positions when pasted into InDesign. Is this to be expected?
Are there solutions to these problems? Note that if I expand everything in Illustrator prior to copying and pasting into InDesign, none of these issues occur, but everything is obviously in outline form, with the limitations it entails.
My clipboard settings are as indicated in the link above, but I have tried other settings with no more luck.
(Important: Before pasting a graphic, make sure that Illustrator is configured to copy as AICB (see Illustrator Help). In InDesign, make sure that Prefer PDF When Pasting isn’t selected in the Clipboard Handling preferences. If these options aren’t set properly, the Illustrator graphic cannot be edited in InDesign.)
It is not practical for me to create an Illustrator file for each of the Illustrator graphics and import those files via Place into InDesign. I must use Copy/Paste.
I use CS4.
Thanks.

You can copy/paste from Illy to ID by selecting the text with the type tool in Illy and then pasting it into ID. You will not be able to maintain the formatting. If you want to maintain the appearance the text will be converted to outlines.
If you need to get anything other than very simple objects from Illy to ID then you should save as AI and use the file > place command to place those objects as linked graphics into ID.

How can i Copy paste from e-mail to Notebook or textbook

How can i Copy pasta from some Content of e-mail to the notepad or textbook or word?

hold your finger down in the body of the mail - the part you want to copy. a blue box will comeup and offer to 'select/select all' or something like that. choose the appropriate choice. If you only want part of it that bubble will have two handles that allow you to drag out the selection box.
then hold your finger down again and another bubble will come up offering to cut/copy the words. choose copy
then navigate to your notes app (not sure about the textbook, depends on whether or not it support it) and hold your finger down in an empty text area. you'll get another blue bubble offering to paste it. choose that and the words should appear. then save as appropriate.

I'm composing an e-mail, and I copy/paste from a web page.

Let's suppose I copy / paste from a web document. For the sake of argument I'm using Mail. A black box appears around the pasted part (with a "X" in the corner).
But, if I do a second paste, the new text is always inside the old box, therefore screwing up the indent.
I can't get the curser to start outside the box. How can I get rid of the box while composing?
Yes, the box disappears when I click outside it, but re-appears if I go for a new line below it.
Here's an example of how it looks.
#1. The fox.
The quick brown fox jumped over the i-mac.
#2. I'm frustrated that I can't paste or type where the first line started, indent wise.
Once the curser is after the word i-mac, and I try to move it down, the next line always goes to the indent of "The" and not #1.
