Downsaving and keeping text editable

Hi there!! recently I've designed a logo, and the problem is the following: I've desgined it in Illustrator CS6 and the text is fully editable, but when I downsave it to make it compatible with Illustrator 10, the text automatically outlines itself! how do I save it so the text remains editable and keeps the compatibility with the 10 version?? any help will be really appreciated!! Thanks a lot!

OdinDesign,
You can no longer download 10, I wrongly assumed you had it.
... but when I downsave it to make it compatible with Illustrator 10, the text automatically outlines itself!
How have you reached that conclusion? If it is based on what happens when you open it in CS6, it is conceivable that the outlining may take place when it is (up)opened in CS6.
Kurt or someone else may tell.
Kurt, someone else?
Is there a reason for having it in 10, and more particularly for keeping it live there, out of your reach?

Can I migrate an iMovie project to final cut pro and keep the edits intact?

can I migrate an iMovie project to final cut pro and keep the edits intact? It may be a solution to my apparently corrupted iMovie

The manual tells ..
http://help.apple.com/finalcutpro/mac/10.1/?lang=en#ver41812c7c
keep in mind: just the 'plain cuts', not the eye-candy iMovie offers, wil be transfered.
unfortunately it says ...:
You initiate the process from within iMovie. The project file and the media used in the project are copied to your Final Cut Pro library.
For more information, see iMovie Help.
so, if your iM doesn't work anymore, you can not transfer.
plus, my personal opinion!, I would start from scratch in FCPx...
What issues in iM do you expect FCPX to solve,...?

Combine text layers but keep text editable? OR A way to export text as a paragraph in InDesign into Photoshop

Hoping to achieve one of these goals, either option is equally fine:
Option 1) find a way to merge text layers but keep the text editable in Photoshop.
Option 2) find a way in InDesign to group and collapse text so that it lands on one layer or one text paragraph that could be selected together. So that when I export to EPS and then PSD the text is not sliced up on various layers but is combined into one editable text layer.
Why? I'm saving out from InDesign and for whatever reason the text is fragmented across many objects/layers/ whatever you want to call it. When using the export feature from InDesign these bits of text are then saved out as separate layers when you export to EPS. Using Illustrator with the EPS files is no help either.
The best way I can describe it is like in these InDesign document there are web page slices being used and various bits of the text are landing on various slices which in turn befuddles the export function that is valiantly trying to maintain these 'slices' of text by fragmenting letters, words, or characters across many 'slices' into many layers.
Here's what the document looks like when I go from InDesign> export> EPS> then open in Illustrator and export to PSD.
What I want is all of those individual text layers to be one text layer, still editable, in Photoshop.

Downsaving to version 10 rasterizes my gradients. How do I downsave and keep everything vector?

I am trying to downsave my Illustrator work to version 10 AND keep all the shapes vector. I do a save copy and select the version of Illustrator I need (10), the result gives me rasterized images rather than vector for many of the gradient filled shapes. What do I do to make sure everything stays vector?
Diane

I'm using the most current CC version. It's not a drop shadow issue, its a gradient issue. I have gradients stacked on gradients and they contain transparency.
I can save down to CS4, but once I try to save as CS3, the gradient rasterize.

Muse, Business Catalyst, and client text editing

Can Muse websites have client text editability if published and hosted with business catalyst?

Talk about making apple pie complicated. I explored the idea of using ICE features within Muse pages. As it turns out, I discovered a lot of things.
1. It could be done.
2. It will get wiped out if you update the page in Muse when the page is republished.
So I tried the following (going around my elbow to get to my rear side.)
1. Created my page (PG 1).
2. Created a second Muse page (PG2). This contained the my ICE DIV and content holder.
3. On PG 1, I did my page layout and then embedded in the center of the page an iFrame html code which pulled through PG 2.
4. Now, when I make updates to the PG 1, the client-allowed section was not effected. To update the PG 2 text using ICE you opened it through BC Insite Editing.
The only drawback is the ICE editable text inside the iFrame must stay inside the iframe's opening dimensions you set (otherwise you have to increase it to fit the content or turn on the scrolling feature.)
5. I wasn't sure, so I uploaded the ICE js folder to my BC hosted site and then linked PG 2 through the header scripts placement.
Tested it and it worked. I was able to use the Edit and the Repeat Section function using the Insite Editor. I did not turn on the "enable online content editing" button as described.
Like I said... complicated apple pie... but it gets the job done. Allows me to update PG without losing my client's edits.

Can I merge a JPG and RAW folder in a catalog and keep the edits?

I usually shoot RAW plus JPG and always used to copy all of them into the same folder. That worked fine, but was a little pointless as the JPG was only used as a temporary preview before the RAW was loaded in behind it. For speed of editing at events, I started to split the files in to two separate folders and import both, but tag and do basic edits, crops etc on the JPGs so for 'news' website use, then work on any higher quality client requirements from the RAW. It would be nice if I could later merge the two together so that those basic edits - and ratings etc - were then applied to the RAW files. They have the same names - bar the extensions, of course - having be renamed by LR on import. I tried it on a test shoot, but it just seems to add separate JPG and RAW images to the catalog. Is there a way to have it associate the unedited RAW with the edited JPG?

Hello Guy gswarbrick,
I am not sure I understand where your current workflow with the JPGs saves you time:
Do you load them into your LR catalog, and do you do the ratings and crops there?
Then for selling on the web you export the JPGs thusly edited from LR?
Do you use a laptop on site/in the field for this?
I am just wondering, where you would actually loose time if your workflow would be the following:
General preparation of your LR set-up:
Define a default develop setting for RAWs that matches your camera's JPG-conversion pretty fine, so that the result would be almost identical without any explicit develop edit.
Define a default export setting for your JPGs to be sold on the web on the day: choose the quality, the size (resizing rules) fit for web, colour space most probably sRGB, ... (no adding to the catalog)
Workflow during the shooting day:
Only import RAWs, no JPGs at all. [Do you fear this takes longer than imprting the JPGs?]
Do the quick stuff during the day like you do today on the JPGs, just on the RAWs. Should also be rating/labeling and cropping, nothing more thanks to your prepared default develop settings.
...Compared to any option with ExifTool or the like for the final RAW-work (4.) you would definitely save the time there.
So the question is: would you really loose time during the critical phase on shooting day?
I guess not, provided your default develop settings achieve pretty much your camera's jpg-conversion. You may need to experiment a little there, make these defaults specific to ISO ranges and camera serial number if you shoot with several cameras, but once this prep is done there should be no more substantial delay.
Unless you post the images directly from camera to the web without passing through LR catalog. Or your field laptop would be of very low spec.
Where to start? Let's start with my laptop; it's about the highest spec available, coupled with Sandisk Extreme Pro cards and a high speed card reader. What about my fear that importing the RAWs would take longer than the JPGs? Well, a small, basic JPG is about 500k, the equivalent uncompressed RAW file is 12Mb, so I reckon about 24x as long to import - give or take. Plus the time to render the RAW file, which isn't required for the JPG. And that's assuming I'm not adding default develop settings, which have a small but not insignificant overhead. For that reason, the RAW imports are usually done after the events or during (rare) breaks.
I've arrived at this workflow through 5 years of experimentation. RAW-only simply does not work for these sorts of events. Most of my 'competitors' shoot JPG-only, for that very reason, but I don't want to lose the RAW option for the print work.

Keep text edit active when switching windows

When editing text, switch document windows then return to the original document. The insertion point is gone, or highlighted text is no longer selected. Instead the active text item is selected. If can be quite a nuisance to have to find the text you were editing or had selected. It makes copying/pasting text between documents much harder than it should be.
This is either a bug or a stupid feature. Illustrator has enough of both.

I think you mean QuickLook, not Preview. And no, QuickLook is not intended to work that way--it is a way to do just what its name says: provide a quick looksee at the files in an open Finder window.
As for ideas: why not just open them in iTunes?
If you don't want to add them to iTunes, you can put the folder with the mp3s into Column View, make sure the box for "show preview column" is checked in View Options, then click directly on the icon for the file in the preview column (as your mouse moves over the icon, you will see the stylish play button appear on top of the icon). It will continue to play no matter what else you are doing.

Strange drag and drop text editing behavior in Mail

Sometime when selecting text in an email and dragging it to a new part of the document COPIES the selected text to the new location rather than MOVES the original text.
Is this a bug or is there a trick to drag and drop in Mail?

Is this a bug or is there a trick to drag and drop in Mail?
No bug, no trick. You simply have to be careful so that you get it right. Select the text you want to move, then click and hold (pause slightly), and drag & drop to the new position. Simple, and it works every time if you do it rights.

Hide desktop icon and keep text

I would like for my desktop not to have icon, but still have the text for the shortcut. I know you can accomplish this by making the icon a transparent image but, it still has the highlighted box around the transparent image when you click it once. Is there a way to get around this?

I use Overflow which does that stated above but even better as it doesn't require opening and closing a seperate folder, or right-clicking, for your files.
The link for Overflow: http://www.stuntsoftware.com/Overflow/

and a review: http://downloads.zdnet.co.uk/0,1000000375,39309691s,00.htm
Now, anyone know how to remove/hide icon title text from the Dock?

Saved project from migration does not have video files? Will manually reloacting each video keep the editing intact on the project?

I had a computer crash but was able to manually drag over and save all my imovie projects. The corresponding videos did not transfer over during the migration. I have had to manually go in and re-import each of the video clips. Will the manually reimported clips automatically replace the missing files and keep the edits intact?
So for example, a missing file in the project has the first 5 seconds clipped off and some image stabilization. The project says I need to reimport the original source media (File X). I import File X so it is now in the library. Will imovie now recognize File X as the source media and automatically plug it in, complete with the cropped 5 seconds and image stabilization? If it is not automatic, is there a process I need to complete to accomplish this?
Thankyou very much for the help.

If you attempt to start a new project and import one of those files does it allow you to simply import them?

TEXT EDIT EXPANDING DOESN'T DISPLAY THE INPUT CORRECTLY

Hi everybody,
i have a dynamic form and a text-edit-field within, which i want to expand with the user input. if the input forces the field to go over to the next page, the text will be splitted, as i expected. So far so good! Removing and resetting the focus on the field (on the last page, where the last part of the input text is) causes the text to be displayed in a 'strange' way. The text jumps upwards and the last part of it can't be seen any longer. I have, for instance, to go with 'str+end' to correctly catch the ending and redisplay this returned part of the input again.
Does anybody have a clue of what can be done to force the text in the field to stay stady?
Thanks a lot,
Valerio

Sorry, i didn't mean to hurt your esthetic sense ;-)
This must be the normal behaviour of a Text-Edit-Field. I've noticed this many times.
Please gimme some hints...at least, whether it's possible to avoid this text jumping phenomenon or not.
Thank you all,
Valerio

Can I use text edit to build a web page using html ?

I'm building a website for a class project and am using text edit with html. I have been successful creating a webpage, but everytime I save and reopen text edit, I am unable to continue working on my original project. Suggestion?

You have force TextEdit to append .html at the end of each new file, cause it insists on using .txt if plain or .rtf if fancy. And as for OPENING preexisting .html files, Safari will try and beat you to it. So you either have to control-click the victim and do an Open with... or drag and drop it onto TextEdit on the dock.
I'd suggest you get a proper HTML editor instead, unless your teacher is a sadist. The Mozilla Project's SeaMonkey browser has a very competent editor to use. And it allows you to upload the results directly without requiring further code.

Why won't Text Edit and Preview open in Lion?

I have installed Lion over Snow Leopard on my MacPro Dual Core Intel Xeon AND also mad a clean installation on an external hard drive.
In neither case will Text Edit or Preview open.
When I first log into Lion as the various application open on the desktop I notice that a couple of Text Edit files on the desktop mount a coloured icon. After everything is done the icons revert to a grey and white one with a grey "RTF" in place of the picture.
I found the same problem with pages (1Work 9.0) but then I found and upgrade in the Lion recovery pages on the Apple website. Unfortunately there is nothing similar for Text Edit or Preview.
Otherwise everything else seems to work.

I just found the solution on our problen on another post entitled:
After upgraded to LION, Preview.app and Textedit.app keep crash
The problem only occurred on one account on my machine. For that account the ownership on the "Library" folder at the root level of that account was wrong. I set it to the credentials of that user (me) and now both Preview and TextEdit open and work without crashing. This is a hidden folder when in the Finder, but I use the Terminal application a lot, and from there I did a chown to change the owner and group of the Library folder. An additional problem is that you need to have root access to make the change.
The discussion I refer to above gives the procedure to use when in the Finder, so if you're not familiar with using the Terminal window, that is probably the best solution. In that discussion, see the post from Silvertoe on Jul 21, 2011 10:08 PM.
Good luck.

Text Edit Character Pallette keeps trying to open

Yesterday I was using Text Edit and I clicked on Edit > Special Characters.
The Special Characters dialog window tried to open but failed. Ever since, the window continuosly attempts to launch at intemitent intervels.
Even after quitting Text Edit and re-starting my computer, the window keeps attempting to launch, blocking whatever I'm doing for a moment each time.
Can anyome offer any advice?
Here's my theories which may be wrong -
Theory 1: The Special Character window is searching vainly for an Apple font that I've turned off
Theory 2:
If you have a theory on how to fix and quiet the Text Edit program Special Character window, I'd appreciate hearing it. Thanks.

Dear Francine,
I tried your suggestions and they worked! First I dug into "/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.CharPaletteServer.plist". I dragged it onto the desktop. Almost immediately, the Character Palette appeared, including characters. I clicked on it's options a couple of times and then my computer froze.
Then I restarted the computer, holding down the "Shift" key. The Special Character Panel stopped trying to pop up.
I did not do anything about fonts, but I think you are also right about that. At the time that the problem started, I had copied some data out of craigslist and I forgot to hold Command/Option/Shift when I pasted it into TextEdit.
I started getting warning messages about two fonts being loaded at the same time. An old Arial font from a graphic design job I did two years ago seemed to be loading.
I have deleted that font from Extensis Suitcase and Font Book as far as I can tell, and I have even deleted the font itself from my client folder, but it keeps coming back from the dead when I forget small stuff like holding Command/Option/Shift. I will have to mosey to the font forum to try to figure it out.
Thank you so much for helping me to find "/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.apple.CharPaletteServer.plist" I never would have known wher to look.
