Dynamic Text won't Print - Ahhhh! Help!!!

I'm importing a png file using an xml file and a text file
for importing text. The image and text show up fine, but when I
PRINT, both don't show up. I"VE GOT TO GO LIVE WITH THIS TODAY. It
has to Print! PLEASE HELP!

I found my own answer and thought I should share it with all
of you. Since I was so surprised that you had to use ActionScript
to tell the movie to allow dynamic text or a dynamic png files to
print. You basically add the following lines for each instance of
dyanmica text or for a movie clip. I was alos using a prebuilt
component, so I had to give this component an instance name.
function printpic(){
print(this.pic, "bframe");
I called the function printpic just to stay in alignment with
the instance name of the movie clip on the stage which was pic.
Then everything printed like it was suppose to.

  • Dynamic text won't display

    I don't know if this is a bug. I have a movie that contains a
    dynamic text. When I run it, the text displays fine. But when the
    said movie is run through another movie clip (using loadMovie), the
    dynamic text won't display. Any ideas why? Thank you.

    Than again, it's a bug on your end :)
    Dynamic text is a text container, it's to be use with
    dynamically given data, from
    source file or variable string on timeline. It's not meant to
    be for regular text
    display. You need to use Static text. The fact that you can
    see it it's just flash
    being tolerant but it only lasts for as long as the movie is
    getting more complex.
    You can get away with somethings even tho you should not be
    using them, does not
    mean they will work all the way. Dynamic text, as said above
    is for text that comes
    to flash from outside source and this is when it works best.

  • Canon IP7250 - Color won't print - Please help

    I have a Canon IP7250, two day ago, my printer showed me error C000. I resolved this error, but now my printer won't printing in colour. Black working properly. I tried many times to cleaning a toner in mainteace. When I go to "print head alignment" then shows error 2500. ? In nozzle check black colour is excellent but no other colors on paper. 
    Please, help me. 
    Thanks.

    Again, the username/password, would either be your logon username/password or your "root" username/password if you have enabled it.
    Another option would be to update your CUPS software. Multi-functional printers are usually "tricky" to get full-featured drivers for. It's possible that a newer version for this particular printer may exist with an update.
    Still another option (and possibly a better one) would be to download and install the latest Gutenprint printer drivers. These were formally known as Gimp-Print drivers. (ref: http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php3)

  • K550 won't print graphics - Help!

    Working great till one day suddenly stopped printing graphics.  Prints text copy fine.  Photos, clip art, etc missing from print.  Ran Diagnostics - okay; ran Configuration page - okay.   Laptop prints fine when connected to another printer,  which eliminated a 'computer' issue; definately a printer setting problem.   Help!!  I'm out of warranty :-(

    As near as I can tell, the printer is not the problem. I have tried three different printers, all with the most up-to-date drivers, and even tried Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro, which should bypass all of the above. The graphic elements that worked perfectly in my previous system simply disappear in Snow Leopard. My workaround is to send them to an "older" Mac NOT running Snow Leopard, then convert them to PDF files, then print from Snow Leopard, and all is well. Absolutely frosted! I have publishing deadlines to meet!

  • Text won't print on Canon LBP5050 after software update, Text won't print on Canon LBP5050 after software update

    I'm running OSX, 10.6.7 on a Mac mini and on a macbook pro. Since I've run an update, neither of them will print text, only pictures, on my Canon LBP5050 printer (which I bought from Apple). I've checked the drivers, and I'm already using the latest. I've reset the print process and that had no effect either. Anyone got any ideas? It rather makes the printer useless.
    Thanks,
    Ariane

    Solution found! Delete old printer driver, restart machine then go to http://support-au.canon.com.au/contents/AU/EN/0900772205.html
    With the CAPT driver installed, to add the printer, you do need to click the More Printers button. This will be located in the bottom left hand corner of the Add Printer browser.
    Restart machine again and turn printer on, hopefully then you'll be able to print text and images without any problems at all! works for me and I'm on a Macbook Pro running 10.6.8

  • Pro 8: Forms button "Print" won't print! Help?

    Hi ,
    I made an button by choosing Forms/Forms tool/Button Tool and filled out color/text size etc and choose from the list: Actions/ Mouse Up/Add... and in the list I selected "File>Print..." So far all looks well. I save the file and select the hand tool and click my button but nothing happens. I have a printer and it works fine.
    Any suggestions? I would prefer to have it print only the current page if possible.
    I use Acrobat Pro 8 for Win.
    Thanks!

    I get the same result. That is strange. If I use ctrl-P, then the print window comes up. That is what I think you are expecting from the action option you have set. I have not been able to get it to work either in AA7. That seems strange. Bill

  • Text won't print where I place it

    I'm doing a greeting card in PSE3. I created a blank file 7 x 10 inches and I centred a single line of text across the bottom. According to what I see on the screen and according to the rulers it is exactly where it should be. But when I print, the text has moved over on the paper so that it is badly off-centre and a little lower than I placed it.
    Any thoughts?

    Hi Jack,
    I'm guessing you are printing on 8 1/2" x 11" paper and the image is
    being printed to the lower left by default. Try positioning the text by
    adjusting the margins or borders during Print Preview.
    HTH,

  • Hp laserjet 1012 won't print - need help

    Nothing in spooler. Spooler cleared.  Can't print.

    My hp laserjet 1012 was printing very well for the last two years. Three days back, in the print I suddenly saw a big blank streak indicating that the printer cartridge may be exhausted. After that, it is not printing anymore on print command.  Yellow light has been flashing all the time.So I went out and bought the printer cartridge recommended, namely, Q 2612A. I have put it in. Still it appears not to have gotten back to the green print mode.
    Any comments/suggestions? Everything looks okay otherwise. 

  • I cannot cancel a print job, cannot print or restart print so other jobs won't print. any help?

    I cannot cancel print job or restart, so I cannot print new job. How do I clear this off?

    Hi,
    From the Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and select Sevices.  Browse down to the print spooler service, right click it and select Properties then click on the Stop button.  Now browse to C:\Windows\System32\Spool\PRINTERS and delete the job inside this folder - You may need to click a prompt to gain the appropriate authority to open the PRINTERS folder.
    Restart the computer and you should find the document(s) have been removed.

  • Printing a movie clip with dynamic text boxes

    I've got a certificate inside a movie clip, and i want the
    dynamic text box to dispay the user name, but for some reason it is
    coming up undefined, even though i have the dynamic text box set to
    finalname = _root.inputname, but it comes up as undefined on the
    screen. :( Can anyone tell me where i am going wrong?
    Is there a way to print just a specific movie clip on the
    screen? I can only print all the frames in the movie and without
    the dynamic text box... any help would be greatly
    appreciated.

    assign the mouseChildren property of your movieclip to false.

  • Dynamic Text in Child SWF

    I created a tool tip symbol and corresponding class that
    follows the mouse cursor. The tool tip works fine when the swf that
    it lives in is run by itself. When I load that swf as a child, the
    dynamic text won't work. The tool tip clip appears and follows the
    mouse but the text doesn't show. The tool tip class extends movie
    clip and accesses the dynamic text as follows.
    import flash.display.*;
    import flash.text.TextField;
    public class tooltip extends MovieClip{
    public var dynTextInstance:TextField;
    public function setTipText(textPassedToFunction:String):void
    this.dynTextInstance.htmlText = textPassedToFunction;
    Any help will be greatly appreciated...
    Thanks

    Could you please post entire class or, at least, the full
    code for how you create the textfield instance and set its
    parameters?

  • Email link in a dynamic text field

    I have a paragraph of scrollable dynamic text. I need to add
    an email link to one of the sentences. Is this possible? I can't
    make the line a button in the dynamic text paragraph. Can anyone
    help please.

    information about the asfunction() is in the flash help
    files: actionscript 2.0 language reference/index/asfunction.

  • ScrollPane + Dynamic text problem.

    Hi,
    I use the ScrollPane component to display a movieclip which contains some text. Until now I have entered just a few paragraphs, with the text field set to "Static text"...but as I have wrote some more I noticed that the text field displays only half of my text. So I have switched to "Dynamic text", which solves the display issue and I get 100% of my text but now I have it always on the scene displayed, even if it is only available in the library...strange!
    Could somone help me out please??
    Regards,
    vedtam

    Ok, I try to make my self clear.
    I have to display a really long text on this website. By default when I am typing anything the Text tool is set to "Static text" in that little drop down in the Text Properties window. So I have moved on whit this, but after more then 50-60 paragraph typed in I get only 30 displayed. Than I went to that little drop down and selected "Dynamic text" to see if this helps, and when I have tested the movie again the text was displayed with all its 60 paragraph, but it was overlapping all my other content without pressing its button (without calling it).
    The movieclip which contains the text, sits in the library, and the ScrollPane component (which loads it externally) is in the scene on the 1st frame. Again, as I test the movie I get the text showing up in the background, so as I click any menu item it is overlapping any other content.
    What I would like to achieve is to have the text displayed without an issue (not only a half of it). But this task is failed by the "Static text" option and setting it to "dynamic text" solves the first problem while rises a second (the sudden appearance of the text on the scene without calling it).
    I hope this second explanation helps,
    Vedtam

  • Making Dynamic Text Vertical

    I have a php site, from which I would like to be able to
    extract a specific record and create a printable postage label.
    I have managed the result page with the Dynamic text but the
    printer/label configuration means I have to get the text in
    vertically (i.e. it would look correct if you looked from the right
    side of the page)
    I have trawled through the forum but the only reference is
    saying that you can only do this with images - Is this
    correct?

    I would think so, yes.

  • Please Help -- Dynamic Text Wont Load :-(

    Hi Gang,
    I've just written a quick mail form in Flash8Pro/PHP - the
    user enters their contact details & a message, and it sends it
    off to the specified email address.
    The feature works fine for the most part, but there's one
    little problem. The dynamic text field that confirms the message
    has been sent successfully isn't working properly. I'm using the
    following php code to send dynamic text back to the flash document
    saying the message has gone through OK:
    print "sendresult=Message Sent!";
    where sendresult is the name of the dynamic text field's
    variable.
    The strange thing is that the code works fine if the
    sendresult dynamic text field is inserted into the main flash
    document. It's only when I put the sendresult field into the movie
    clip that holds the flash mail form (including the button with the
    loadvariablesnum command), that the text won't update at all. I've
    tried:
    print "_root.enquirypage.sendresult=Data Sent!"
    and
    print "enquirypage.sendresult=Data Sent!", but neither of
    those make any difference.
    Any suggestions? Anybody know what's causing this problem?
    Any help would be very very appreciated - I know I could probably
    get around this by just setting the visibility of the dynamic text
    field on & off when necessary and keeping it in the main flash
    doc, but I'll be using this feature quite a lot and I'd really like
    a proper/versatile solution. In case it's necessary, the
    actionscript that sends the message off to the php is just:
    loadVariablesNum ("form.php", 0, "POST");
    Many thanks in advance gang,
    - Jay

    Your code loadVariablesNum ("form.php", 0, "POST"); will load
    your variable sendresult in level 0 - the main timeline. If you put
    the text field inside a movie clip it expects a local variable in
    that movie clip.
    Use _level0.sendresult or _root.sendresult as the dynamic
    field's variable.
    Or, instead of loadVariablesNum you could use loadVariables,
    like this:
    _root.enquirypage.loadVariables("form.php", "POST");
    or, if you make the call from a button inside the movie clip:
    this.loadVariables("form.php", "POST");
