Disable text as black
When I export my book to PDF some text in some documents prints as low resolution dark black. My documents in InDesign show no sign of this. I read that "disable text as black" could be a potential solution. Where would I find this option -- I don't see it in my output choices. I'm an extreme newbie -- please keep it simple.Thanks.
I think we are going to need a lot more information, and maybe some screen shots.
Text as Black is an option you must select, not on bey default, and it is there for when you are printing a document with colored text to a monochrome printer so you get readable solid black text. Text that is colored 100%K only is not as dark in print as text that also has CMY mixed with it. If you are printing color document to a monochrome printer you should set your Appearance of Black settings in the preferences to Output All Blacks as Rich Black or 100K will print as a dark gray (somewhere in low to mid 90% black range) because the 100% black output is used for darker rich black objects.

Background, Images, & text is blacked out. I can not see any menus to edit anything...
The curser shows there are links when you move over. I have uninstalled and re-installed Firefox and restarted my computer with no luck.
I can not see the menus to try and reset Firefox or change any settings.
HELP Pleasehello obrienn214, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to your system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

"Sliding Panel" title text remains black
I don't know why, using a "Sliding Panel" title, if I change the face color nothing happens... the text remains black. I'd like to make it white, but there's no way to do it, here. Even opening it in Motion, I set white color for text face, but it remains black....
You could open a copy in Motion, disable the Title layer and add a text layer and a fade in/fade out behavior. Remember to make the new text a published parameter.
Good luck

This has happened on the last few versions of firefox, as long as canvas has been supported. I see other people's screen shots from canvas tutorials, and the text always looks normal. On my system, any text put into a canvas element via context.fillText() will have a black bounding box for each letter, sized appropriately for the letter. If the text is black, of course you only see rectangles. If the text is a contrasting color, then you can read it, but it looks bizarre.
Thomas...same kind of crap here.
I used Custom Text - entered a sentence, hit return, entered another.
Set to 72 pt.
The default alignment is centred - I want left aligned text...the text start point stays at the centre of frame and the sentence runs off the edge of the bounding box.
There is no settings in the Text or Title inspector dialog to correct that!
Using Transform will not sort it! -
How do I DISABLE text message forwarding between my iPad and iPhone?
I want to DISABLE text forwarding from my iPhone 5 (IOS 8.1.1) to my IPad 4 (IOS 8.1.1) but....I have already tried the following (so PLEASE do not make these suggestions):
I want to be able to text from my iPhone and those text messages (either SMS or iMessage) NOT go to my iPad. BUT, I want to also text from my iPad and those messages NOT go to my iPhone. I want the text messages to stay on each device independently.
Since I still want to be able to text from my iPad, I do NOT want to turn off iMessage. If I turn off iMessage, I cannot text from my iPad.
I disabled HANDOFF
I disabled TEXT MESSAGE FORWARDING (from my iPhone)
Creating a new Apple ID is not an option since there is other data that I need between devices.
Having followed these steps, I still cannot stop the texts from forwarding between devices. Any ideas?On your iPad, can you deselect your phone number as an option in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at and then add an email address at which you can be reached? My iPod Touch is set up to use an email address (I have 6 email accounts) and the messages on my iPod do not sync with my other devices.
I Do have to say that it has been ages since I set up the Touch for Messages, but I am running iOS 8 on it. I can't remember if I had to sign out of messages and start all over again on the touch in order to deselect the iPhone number. -
This is my first time using this site, but it's helpful so far. Not sure if I need to retype the wording in the Discussion box above, but will do so just in case.
Love Safari's new look, but on my 17-inch MacBook Pro the font on most pages is partly or all is an insipid light blue. I've tried changing all text to black on white to help my 83-year-old eyes, but no luck so far. Any tips?

Broomfield, COThe simplest thing to try is a reset.
With Safari running, click on Safari in the menu bar and select Reset Safari ....
If that does not work, go to Safari / Preferences / Advanced.

Reverse Type and Print Text as Black
I made a black box and on another layer I made the type "white" by choosing "paper". On screen it looked correct.
Then I did a preflight and chose "print text as black" because I thought the text in the rest of the doc looked better with that choice.
Problem: After printing, the text in the box came out black instead of white. What should I have done? I am using InDesign CS5 on Windows.That’s what you asked for, isn’t it? Text as black means all of the text, not just some of it.
Now, before you get horribly frustrated I suggest taking a step back in your move to InDesign.
First, buy this book: http://amzn.to/ORQqtT ; Sandee Cohen’s Visual Quick Start Guide is the best beginner book on the market. It’s the best $20 you’ll ever spend.
Secondly, check out the video training on Lynda.com. Here’s a link for a one week free trial: http://bit.ly/fcGpiI

Am using hp deskjet 1050 series...am not able to print text in black ,why?
hie....am using the hp deskjet 1050 printer and scanner ....ealier i was able to print all kind of text(black and color)....but now am unable to print text in black....why is it so?
Hi,
Please go to HP Printer Assistant (you can see this in Start Menu->HP->HP 3540 Series).Select 'Set Preferences'.Go to Layout tab and select Advanced tab. Go to Document Options and select 'Black Ink Only' (for black prints only).
Colour Only doesnot makes sense. If you want to print the colour,just reset the above option.
By default, HP printer prints black area with black and color with color.
Hope this helps. -
How to get clear small text on black background?
hi,
I'm trying to get some clear small text on black, in the letterboxed area below some video. I've been trying 14pt, with a bit of tracking, using Arial, Helvetica, Skia, and Lucida Grande. They all look clear enough when rendered out to QT, but on my production monitor they dont look good. When I compress it for DVD (using very high bit rate settings) they really fall apart.
I even tried making the text in After Effects, which is what I do with my subtitles, but those are larger (about 24points) and for some reason the small text generated in After Effects looked worse than the native FCP text.
Does anyone have suggestions for the best combination of font and point size to give me clear small text for a black background? I dont mind going up a few point sizes.
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thank you....Hi all,
Many thanks for all the suggestions.
I wound up using Helvetica 18pt, white set at 85%, and applied stib's de-interlacer (http://www.pureandapplied.com.au/plugins.html).
I tried Guassian Blur set to 0.1 but that made it less clear and didn't really help with the flicker. I also made sure to set the position to an even numbered line (I'm using uncompressed)
When I tried Helevetic 17pt, the "a" and the "e" both fell apart towards the top of the letter making them hard to read. I would guess that "g", "i", and "j" would also have problems had I used them.
I didnt have enough time to test, but I wonder if there isnt some font that is better suited for this kind of work than Helvetica. Futura is nice and clean, but a bit thin. Helvetica Neue is also good, but not much differnet than Helvetica. Verdana and Lucida Grande might also be good choice. What do you all use?
thanks again... -
Hi,
I don't know if it's Mac or it's HP but I would appreciate to have the possibility to define the printing preferences for my HP printer (LaserJet M1132 MFP) as I can do it in Windows. Would there be a trick to print all text as black?File > Print then select Black & White.
That will print all text in black. -
Hi,
I have a drop down menu called CN_Entry_Initials that has options of a "C" or an "N". I also have a text box called Part_Number to enter a part number into. I want the Part Number text box to be grayed out or disabled until either a "C" or an "N" has been chosen out of the CN_Entry_Initials drop down menu. I have this working, except that I cannot get the Add button to do anything. I think it’s something to do with the way I have the If statement for this disabled text box, or do I have to change the button to a submit button. Does anyone know how to fix this? Below is the javascript and the drop down menu and text box code along with the Add or submit button. There is extra stuff in the Javascript that I have on the page, but I don't need to worry about those things since they are working correctly. I have the disabled text box code at the top of the javascript under the function verify() code. Thanks.

AndyI don't understand about using the alert box to output the variables. I know that everything was working with alert boxes, etc. before I added the code for the disable text box code. The difference I see is on the disable text box code I use document.getElementById and on the other code I use document.AddECNumber. Could this cause the Add button to not work? If so, how do I change this code to make it work? I tried just changing it be like the document.AddECNumber code, but that didn't work.

How can I disable Text Messaging on my Iphone?
How can I disable Text Messaging on my Iphone -- so I do not receive any texts. I do not have nor currently want an AT&T text plan, and I really don't want to be charged .20 for the text messages that will inevitably be sent my way from friends & coworkers who do not know I don't want texts.
AT&T had a link only for blocking spam texts, but I don't think this will stop standard SMS texts.
Anyone do this? Does this involve a call to AT&T. There must be a way to disable it, no?
Thanks in advance!

In PSE 12 how can I change my watermark label eg colour of text from black to white etc
I have created a watermark to use in batch processing from RAW to jpg but I don't like the watermark and want to change some elements eg change the text from black to white but every time I change it, PSE changes it back to black - how do I fix this?
This isn't Lion-specific. I had the same prob changing OS a couple of years ago and now again changing to Lion on a new laptop.
Changing the Date and Time settings would do it (you'd think) but it doesn't. It was always embedded in International (now Language &Text). It seems to be a bug though as I've Custom Edited selecting 12-hr clock with am/pm and have the same issue. On-the-hour has no am/pm or zeros.
I've learnt not to waste too much energy on it once it doesn't make logical sense as it's generally a bug.
I'm loving Lion though - even unexpectedly using the natural scrolling.....but I digress.... -
Why Adobe Acrobat is not recognizing text on black backgrounds
I was surprised when I first discovered this. I thought Adobe was supposed to have the best OCR software in in the world, I tested in on few backgrounds, white text on black background - not working, yellow text on black background - not working..
I was disappointed, I had to use onlineocr, which did better job than Adobe Acrobat, it discovered all kinds of texts, bold fonts, text on multi-colored background - things that Acrobat OCR couldn't recognize..Hi Anubha,
Thanks for your help.
In Finder ...... > Twain Data Sources I found two files, "Canon MP980 series Network.ds" (1.9Mb) and "Canon MP980 series.ds" (2Mb). Next to Kind for both it says "Application". I don´t see the word "Package" or "PowerPC" or "Universal". However, under Where, it says "Macintosh HD>Library>Image Capture>TWAIN Data Source. This is also the same information I find on my Macbook Pro (OS X 10.10.3), but still running Acrobat CC (not upgraded yet, thankfully). I can still scan using my MBP.
I was able to scan using Image Capture.
I did not have time to go through the procedure of logging in as root user.
Frankly, this seems way to complicated. There has to be an easier fix to the problem.
I also checked Canon´s website for updated driver files, but there are none for Yosemite.
