EMF images embedded in Excel 2010 documents don't display when the same document is loaded into Excel 2013

I have a fairly large spreadsheet which creates layout floorplan maps based on a table of 3,000+ room locations and various cross-referenced attribute lookup tables which add flags & colour coding to the individual rooms. The maps also
include a few graphic elements beyond simple cells and borders, such as EMF images to indicate stairways, etc.
The sheet works perfectly on my Win7 desktop in Excel 2010:
However when loaded into Excel 2013 on my Win7 laptop, all of the images show as a red cross with the wording "This image cannot currently be displayed", thus:
Any ideas, as this looks like a bug in Excel 2013? Thanks.
Andre

Hi Andre,
What happens if you reimport the images from original source?
Try Running Excel Program firstly, and then open this file within Excel (File->Open).Also if you have Excel 2010 installed , try to open the file using Excel 2010, copy an paste the content to a blank Excel file.
You can also try to check the option 'Disable hardware graphics acceleration'. File->Options->Advanced ...

Came here to complain about this maddening feature. Why it doesn't save the PDF out to a separate instance of the document is beyond me. PLENTY of us want to save the PDF without the layers, and want the PSD separate.
"Oh good, I've completed this document.... let me just save it out as a PDF for client delivery and... Now all the work is gone."
Genius, Adobe, genius. But it's cool--we'll just keep paying out the nose on a subscription basis with no fix for small errors like this.

Adobe Reader will not open documents. Will only open the same document regardless which document I select.

Different document restrictions in Acrobat and Reader for the same document

When I create a PDF in Acrobat Professional 9 with no security, the document restrictions summary shows comments as allowed and I can add comments in Acrobat Professional, but when the same document is opened in Adobe Reader 7, 8 or 9, the document restrictions summary show comments are not allowed and comments cannot be added.
When I add password security to a document allowing comments, the document properties in Acrobat Prof 9 shows comments are allowed and I can add comments. When the same document is opened in Adobe Reader 7,8 or 9, the document restrictions summary show comments are not allowed and commenting is disabled.
Has anyone come across this issue?

How about "Document Assembly", "Creation of Page Templates", etc?
I am submitting a grant application and they require the document setting is done in the way the reviewers can assemble, change the template, edit, comment on the document.
When I open the document in Acrobat all these are allowed, and when I open the document in Reader they are not allowed. Should I assume that whatever is opened in Reader is always in the setting that these are not allowed? Or is there anything I have to do to change the setting in the "Reader"?

New topics are compiled in but don't display when help button is pressed

Folks,
I'm using RoboHelp HTML Build 6. I am the only writer who uses RH and have been using this build for 2 years or so.
I recently got a new map file from the developer containing 2 new map IDs. I used the same steps to import the map file, create the new topics, and map them to the new map IDs that I have been using for years. But when I compiled RH and pasted the chm into the application folder, those 2 new topics don't display when the help button is clicked on the dialog box to which they are mapped.
When I generate the chm I can look at the output at the bottom of RH project view and see that that the 2 new htm files are being compiled into the RH project. I can also see them if I open the generated chm and go into the TOC and click on a link to them.
Does anyone have any ideas? I have tried redoing the usual procedure (see below) for the importing and mapping from scratch several times. I have also tried BugHunter (see below).
Procedure for Importing and Mapping (this time the help for all the older dialog boxes works but not for the 2 new ones)
1. Open the new map (.hm) file from the developer and add #define followed by a space to each entry beginnng with the string HID in the new map file (I don't know why but nothing works unless I do this.)
2. Delete the old map file from the RH project.
3. In Windows Explorer, copy the new .hm file into the RH project folder.
4.In Project Manager view, open Context-Sensitive Help. Right-click on Map Files. Select Import. Browse and select the new map file.
6. Map the new topics using File, Edit Map IDs.
7. Generate the .chm and pasted it into the application where it always goes.
BugHunter Procedures and Results
I first tried the Test HTML Help API dialog.
I specified the .CHM file I compiled and tested both options:
--HH_DISPLAY_TOPIC: I put in the name of the new help (htm) file and its relative path and clicked Help. Nothing happened.
--HH_HELP_CONTEXT: I put in the Map Number for the new dialog box and clicked Help. The new help topic I had created displayed.
I also used the Tools tab in BugHunter to do a CSH (context sensitive help) Test. I identified the chm file and opened it and put in a new map number, then clicked Show Help. Nothing happened.

Welcome to the RH forums.
On the surface it sounds like you have done everything correctly so it should just be a case of going back and double checking that you have the correct CHM, that the mapid is exactly the same as in the app and that the app has been updated.

Uploading the same document

Can someone please clarify what will happen when the same document is sent to another user who downloads the document, edits the document, then emails it back to be re-uploaded? Also same scenario but the title has been changed!
dfrancis

Two things can happen:
User can select the option to over-write the document in SharePoint
User can select to not over-write the document in SharePoint, which will then just add to the version (if versioning is enabled)

Putting two separate images side by side in the same document

Hello
I'm new to the community and hope I'm posting this question in the right area.
I've downloaded the 30 day free trial of Photoshop CC 2014 and I'm attempting to put 2 separate images side by side in the same document based on an instructional video I watched on Lynda.
I know of one way to do this but, the Lynda's instructor method made things look so much easier and quicker to do.
He didn't create a new canvas or make any image size adjustments.
He basically imported 2 images, used the move tool to drag the open image and drop it in the the tab heading of the other image.
After doing that, he ended up with two layers, the background layer and the "layer 1" layer.
He then was able to use the move tool again to position layer 1 in the document and then use the expand all option (I think it was) so both images were visible side by side.
He moved the layer 1 layer to the far left that it almost wasn't visible and that's why he used the expand all function.
The problem I'm running into is, I'm not getting the "layer 1" after doing the drag and drop.
The only layer I have is the background layer.
The odd thing is, that was the only layer he had as well after he did the drag and drop.
But, after he gave the tip of holding the shift key while the drag and drop was being done to center the images, it was then, the layer 1 layer appeared in his layers pallet.
I tried holding the shift key as well and I still can't get the layer 1 to appear.
I've watched the video a few times to see if I missed something he did and i can't see that I have.
How do I get layer 1 to appear so I can complete the rest of the process described in the video?
If any members here have full access to the Lynda videos, this is the one I watched:
The instructions for this particular process is about half way through the 4 minute video.
I've sent basically the same question to Lynda but it could take up to 3 business days for a reply and I was hoping someone here might have an answer sooner.

Trevor,
Fleming doesn't want to extend the canvas, mind you.
P Fleming wrote:

He also doesn't want to drag layers but drag image tabs.
And the video tutorial ends up with two different images on top of each other, contrary to his initially desired "side by side" arrangement.
It's all for the birds, IMO.

HT4642 I use numbers with excell 2010, but it does not show the drop tabs, just a number, is this fixable?

I have a iphone5 and trying to use numbers with it, I use excell 2010, but it will not transfer the dop down boxes on excell 2010. Is this fixable or what?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The first Mac with Thunderbolt was the Early 2011 MacBook Pro. If you have got a 2010 MacBook Pro, you have got Mini DisplayPort instead of Thunderbolt, which are the same, but Mini DisplayPort can't be used to connect external disks.
To check which MacBook Pro you have, open  > About this Mac > More Info, and you will see the MacBook Pro model. If it's Mid 2010 or older, you haven't got Thunderbolt, so you have to connect the external drive through USB

"No connectivity with the server" error for one document but not the other, in the same document library

We have a number of users all of a sudden getting "No connectivity with the server. The file 'xxx' can't be opened because the server couldn't be contacted." errors trying to open MS Office docs (Word, Excel, etc.) in SharePoint with IE,
just by clicking the link and selecting the "Read Only" option. If they select the "Check Out and Edit" option, they can open the document no problem. One of my customers gets the error on one document but not the other, in
the same document library! The older document (a weekly report) was copied and renamed as per standard procedure. She can read the older document, but not the new one.
It is definitely a profile issue, as other people have logged onto the machines of the users with problems and do not get the error. We have also renamed people's c:\user profile folders and the corresponding Profilelist registry entry and the newly
created profile does not experience the error for these people. Renaming the profile back restores all their personal settings but the error reappears. When we copied the old profile's folder structure into the new profile, many of the user settings
were restored (but not all, like Dreamweaver settings) but the error did not appear. We think that the system folders files (like AppData) weren't totally copied over so we're going to run another test using xcopy. We are rebooting between
logons to make sure all files are unlocked.
The laptops and computers are mainly 32bit, Win7 Enterprise running IE9 and Office 2010 Professional Plus, but there's a few 64bit machines as well. The SharePoint farm has 1 WFE, 1 App Server running search and CA, and a shared database server running SQL
2005 SP4. SharePoint is 64bit MOSS 2007 with the latest CU.
We've checked the logs on the client as well as on the server and there aren't any helpful entries. We've also run Process Monitor, also with no helpful entries. We're planning to run something like Fiddler next.
It's not everyone, because there are many people are accessing the SharePoint system and the same files. It is also not a permission thing, as we've tested by giving the users elevated permissions with no changes. One person experiencing
the errors is a Site Collection Admin. That same person ran a test where I coped a simple Excel file into a Document Library which contained a problem file. They were able to open it Read Only no problems that day, but the next day, the same
file gave them an error. In their case, they usually get a "xxx is not checked out" error and only occasionally get the "No connectivity with the server" error.
We've tried lots of things including:
Deleting IE cache
Deleting SharePoint Drafts and webcache folder contents
Running IE without add-ons
Upgrading and Downgrading IE
Uninstalling and re-installing IE
Reinstalling our SSL certs
Repairing Office
Removing and then adding back in the Microsoft Office "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support" Office Tool
Deleting all HKLM and HKLU Office registry settings
Toggling IE Compatibility Settings
Toggling the IE Automatic Logon option
Toggling the location of checked out files
Adding the site in the trusted sites list
Adding the site to the WebClient\Parameters registry locations
Making sure the WebClient service is started
Rebooting the machine (lol :)
This is becoming a serious issue, not just because of the inconvenience for the users having to check out every document they want to read, but we have some files with macros that open up other documents to run which are now failing. There aren't
"check out" workarounds for some of those macros.
We're planning to open a ticket with Microsoft, but I'm throwing it out here first in case someone has run into this before, or may have some suggestions on what to try next. Thanks!
-Richard.
PS I think this needs to be in the "General" forum instead?

It took three days of dedicated troubleshooting, but I have found the cause of the errors, and a couple of fixes. It helped tremendously that my own machine was throwing the error. I have scheduled a couple of users to work with me to test the
various fixes, to see which one works best, so the story isn't over yet.
I had backed up my c:\users profile folder and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList registry key so I could restore my profile after I was done. I made a copy of the profile folder and was using that for awhile,
but then made another copy where I had deleted a lot of content out of it so that the copies would go faster. Since a newly created profile did not have errors, I was trying to copy back as much of the profile as possible to make it easier for our users
to get back to work. Instead of blowing away their profile and starting from scratch (which we know worked) I wanted to narrow down what was causing the error and just skip that from the restore. The concept was to keep as much as the users profile
in tact (application settings, etc.) not just restoring their desktop and My Documents folders.
When we first tested a few weeks ago, simply copying the folder contents didn't reproduce the error. I then tried xcopy, but got the "can't read file" error. Then I tried robocopy, and ran into the "junction" problem.
I went back to xcopy, and found that placing the excludes.txt file in the windows/system32 folder eliminated the error.
So the process went as follows:
Reboot and log into the machine as another user
Delete the profile and associated registry key
Reboot and log into the machine as the affected user, creating a new profile, and there is no error
Reboot and log in as the other user
xcopy the contents of the skinned-down backed-up profile to the newly created profile
Reboot and log in as the affected user, and the error occurs
Repeat the above, but add items in the excludes.txt file to see what, when eliminated, causes the error not to appear in the last step
I eventually found that skipping the c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\Microsoft\office\14.0 folder allowed the entire profile to be copied over without the error occurring. That was strange, because we've cleaned out the cache folders
before which didn't fix the issue.
So I went about it the opposite way, and tried to delete the 14.0 folder from the restored profile, and after reboot, the error still occurred.
What eventually worked was deleting the 14.0 folder and copying over a 14.0 folder from a newly created profile!
One way to do this was to:
Reboot and log in as another user
Rename the c:\users profile folder
Rename the appropriate [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList] registry key
Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
Reboot and log in as the other user
Copy the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder to the other user's desktop
Delete new profile folder, and rename the backup to be the production folder
Delete the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder and then paste the 14.0 copy from the desktop
Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
We've tried this on a couple machines and it works. I had to run Windows Explorer as Administrator to access the other profile's folders.
We've also successfully copied a 14.0 folder created by one profile on one affected computer over another profile's folder on another computer, eliminating the error, so we're trying that first, as that is fewer steps.
We may attempt to script this, but the self-help instructions are only 5 lines long:
Reboot and log into the affected computer with another account
Go to <link to location of 14.0 folder on network> and copy the 14.0 folder
Run Windows Explorer as Administrator
Go to c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\microsoft\office and delete the 14.0 folder, and paste the copied 14.0 folder (trying to overwrite it makes Win7 want to merge the folders)
Reboot and log into your normal account, and confirm the error is gone
I'll come back and report after we go into the field with this fix, but after the few tests, I am cautiously optimistic that this is it.

When I OCR two versions of the same document and then compare th documents in Acrobat Pro XI, I usually get the message that there are no changes to mark. However, I know there a quite a few number of changes. I raised this question more than a year ago

When I OCR two versions of the same document and then compare the documents in Acrobat Pro XI, I usually get the message that there are no changes to mark. However, I know there a quite a few number of changes. I raised this question more than a year ago, and the response I received had to do with the quality of the OCR and the scans of the documents. However, if I use Acrobat Pro XI to save the same documents in Word and then run a comparison in Word all of the changes are marked. When a PDF is saved as a Word document in Acrobat Pro XI, is a different OCR module being used than the one used in Acrobat Pro XI for text recognition?

OCR is only for recoginition of the image / picture of text provided by an scanner.
Content typed into a Word file which is converted to a PDF is (in Word and in PDF) *not* an image or picture of text - it is the digital text. So, no OCR involved.
When the "digital" (renderable) text of a PDF's page content is exported to Word no OCR is involved.
When a PDF's content is from the image output of a scanner and this is a picture of text then OCR comes into play.
If this content is exported to Word before doing OCR then it is the image that is exported to the Word file.
Once OCR is performed it is the OCR output that is exported.
OCR output is (always will be) impacted by "the quality of the OCR and the scans of the documents".
Regardless "Compare" is based on a Word file output to PDF1 then edits to the Word file followed by an output to PDF2. You use Acrobat Pro to do a compare of PDF1 & PDF2.
Paper 1 scanned to image 1 to image 1 in PDF1 that gets OCR 1 and
Paper 2 scanned to image 2 to image 2 in PDF2 that gets OCR 2
being processed with Acrobat Pro's Compare can certainly be done.
But - well you've described what can be observed.
Be well...

Is it possible to split the same document, Word-style?

I don't know what else to call it. In Word, it was "split."
I often edit two parts of the same document simultaneously, but in Pages 08, I haven't been able to figure this out. "Two Up" is not what I'm looking for.
For example, what I would do in Word was KS ("keyboard shortcut to") split the document, KS half the document to another page (Go To), KS copy information from one part of the document, KS to the other half of the document and paste/modify... in essence, I was editing two parts of the document without touching the mouse.
It saved a LOT of time. Any help here? I've checked the Pages 08 PDF manual. Naming the software "Pages" was also kind of stupid, because Google searches come up with everything BUT software hits. I have the same issues with Numbers... kind of problematic naming conventions.
lol reminds me of the band "Live." Before I knew their music intimately (and members' names), they were impossible to find interviews for and run searches on...

Unfortunately, no, & it still isn't available in iWork '09. I didn't use it too often in AppleWorks, but it was very handy to have. Another "missing" feature is the ability to have two windows of the same document open at once. I suggest you leave feedback for the Pages team regarding this. You can find it under the Pages menu > Provide Pages Feedback. That takes you to the same page as this link.

Open multiple occurances of the same document

We are running reader 9.1.1 and need to be able to open multipe occurances of the same document. Yes, I know how to open the same document multiple time with <window><new window> the problem with this is editing a form in one window changes it in all windows. I need to ope independant occurances or the same form. Can this be done? The /n switch will not work for this either! Hope somebody has an idea.

Simple solution, yes. Unfortunatly its not that simple... Having multiple copies of the same document posses issues when updating the document. This doucument is updated almost daily and is distibuted to many users across a network... Having to have users open multiple copies of the document creates many logistical and use issues.

How can I use two different page orientations in the same document?

I am trying to have both portrait and landscape page orientations in the same document. Pages doesn't seem to like this. Is there a way?

I tried to comment on another thread about this same issue, but the thread was closed.
In the other thread; however, some asked why rotating one pages was necessary, and if they knew then maybe there would be reason to create the function.
Well, I don't know about why anyone else needs it, but for me it's for the papers I have to write for my masters program. The professors like to have the rubric attached to the bottome of the document so they easily grade and keep things organized. They of course give directions on how to easily change the orientation of the last page in Word, but not all of use Word, or even want to use Word. Maybe I need to ditch Pages and go to Word? I'd really hate to do that!
So, come on Apple, let's get this feature added, stat!

Portrait and landscape in the same document.

Hi there. I'm trying to print a portfolio that has both
portrait and landscape pages in it. I understand that I can change
printing propoerties to print in either portrait or landscape, but
is there any way to configure settings so that both are present in
the same document?
Many thanks in advance.
Regards
irthom

You can't do that in Pages. You either have portrait or landscape orientation of the pages. What you can do is rotating the content of the page if it is an image, objet or table.
If the document is for reading on the screen you can export the document to PDF and in Preview rotate the page.

Different margins in the same document

So if I understand this right, the only way to have different margins in different parts of a document is to (a) set the document margins to the smallest ones needed, and then (b) break the document into sections and set the layout for each section to increase the margins to the desired point for that particular section. Right?

Partially.
There are two types of margin. The margin you set with the Document Inspector is global for the whole document. The Layout Margin that you set with the Layout Inspector is relative to that but can't be negative i.e. you can't make it smaller than the document margin as you said.
The bit where you were slightly incorrect is that you can adjust the layout either after a Section Break or after a Layout Break. Layout Breaks don't start on new page like Section Breaks so can be useful sometimes.
I hope that helps.
