Fitting text into a single merged cell.

I am trying to make my text fit within a merged cell in numbers. Is there a wrap command that I can use?

Hi Santec,
You can select the cell, then check the box shrewdly named "Wrap" in the tool bar or in the cells inspector:

Convert/join multiple file formats (doc, pdf, text) into 1 single PDF/A using web services

We would like to purchase LiveCycle for the PDF Generator feature, but we want to know if it will meet our technical requirements.
We would like to convert a PDF, an HTML, a DOCX, and some custom text into 1 single PDF/A. Basically: joining 3 different files types and some text into 1 very long PDF/A file. Can we do this type of join?
Also, we would like to install LiveCycle on a central server and then call a web service or use an API where we can input the 3 different files and the text and as output we would get 1 PDF/A back. Obviously there might be intermediary steps, but in essence we need to be able to do this conversion from our custom code by calling some LiveCycle API.
Thanks!

You can use Assembler service with PDFGenerator. There is support for Web Service endpoints(SOAP). Please go through this for details : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/11.0/Overview/lc_overview_ds.pdf
Thanks,

Inserting text into table cells in Powerpoint

Hi
I have a named table ClientInfo on Slide 3 in Powerpoint. How can I programmatically insert text into the table's cells?
Thanks
Regards

Hi Yahya,
What did you mean named table? Did you mean the name of shape?
If I understood correctly, we can use table object to manipulate a table shape on a slide. And here is a sample to insert text into the first cell for your reference:
Application.ActivePresentation.Slides(3).Shapes("ClientInfo").Table.Cell(1, 1).Shape.TextFrame.TextRange.Text = "Hello"
Also here are some helpful links for learning PowerPoint developing:

Excel Merge Cells.vi throws an undefined error in Excel 2013?

Basically, I can't write text into an Excel spreadshoot using the Report Generation tools.
Using LabVIEW 2013 (SP1) I am writing to individual cells in an Excel (2013) template.
The error is coming from the Report Generation Toolkit>Excel Specific>Excel Easy Text.vi.>Excel Merge Cells.vi.
Inside of the "Excel Merge Cells.vi" is an "Invoke Node.Range". When the program hits this point, it throws out an undefined error.
My code has been running on multiple platforms in multiple programs with no problems using Office 2010.
NASA upgraded our Office Suit to 2013. I am now throwing an undefined error ( -2146827284).
I've got a service request in and have talked to an engineer. THey are looking at the problem. However, I thought I would throw it out here and see if anyone had seen this particular problem.
Bryan Alexander

Problem found, workaround implemented.
When you use the "New Report.vi", you have to wire in one of four choices for the state of the window. "Maximized", "Minimized", "Normal" and "No Change". If you use the "Excel Easy Text.vi" to insert data into an Excel 2013 Spreadsheet, it will generate an error if you opened the Excel file in "Minimized" mode. The other three states work fine.

Distorted text when trying to merge files into single pdf

I am trying to merge several pdf documents into a single pdf. The pages are all distorted with missing words and random characters appearing here and there. I have combined these pages successfully using 'Assemble files into a PDF package' so I know the files are okay. Trying 'Merge files into a single pdf' is what creates the problem. I have tried this on Acrobat 8.0 and also 10. It is the same in both cases.
Help please!

Hello again. I took the long weekend off, so haven't replied for a while.
While trying to set up a few documents out of the package I wanted to create, I discovered that there
is only one file that is causing the problem.
The biggest problem is that it is a confidential financial file, and I'm loathe to put it up on the web.
I'm going to try to re-create the file without the confidential part, then send it to this forum. I can't
figure out why it should cause problems when all the others don't and they have all been created by
the same person with the same version of Office.
So thanks for your help so far. I really appreciate the quick response from a couple of you. I will get back to you.

How do I paste into merged cells?

I have created a spreadsheet that includes some merged cells. I want to paste some information into them and across other cells in that row at the same time. When I paste the information, however, the merged cells are split and the data that are intended for columns beside the merged cell are pasted in the separate columns that make up the merged cell.
In other words, my third cell is actually composed of table columns C-F. However, because it is merged, I would expect it to function as a single cell. So I copy 6 columns of information, try to paste them into 6 cells (one of which is the merged one, C-F), and instead of it pasting into cells A, B, C-F (the merged one), G, H, & I, all of the data ends up pasting into A, B, C, D, E, and F, which defeats the purpose of merging the cells entirely.
Is there a setting I can change to make this work as expected?
Thanks
DLM

Interesting problem. One thing I have found that seems to work is to select and copy the data, run a script that converts the clipboard to text, select the cells to paste to (all of them, not just the one where it will start), then 'paste and match style'. The script is a simple one:
set the clipboard to (the clipboard as text)
Another option would be to use TextEdit as an intermediary. Copy, Paste & Match Style into TextEdit, Copy, then, in Numbers, select all the cells to be pasted to and Paste & Match Style.
Not great solutions but that's all I got right now.

Copy and Paste Multiple lines into a single cell

Folks:
I need to copy some plain text data into a single cell that has been merged with other cells to provider a larger unit; however, every time I copy and paste my data it gives me an error. In addition, if I paste the data into a single cell, the next line
of data inserts into the next row.
I understand that Alt+enter is a quick way to do what I want, but I already have the data typed out, and I do not want to type the data again.
Example: (If possible I want in one single cell)
Disks=32
Total space=1.74TB
Used space=1.20TB
Free space=0.54TB
Thank you!!!

Is there any way to do this but keep the source formatting? I don't see any "Paste Special" options when you do it this way.
That is not possible - when you copy/paste this way, you only copy the plain text, not the formatting. You'll have to apply formatting to the cell with pasted lines from scratch.

How to display multple line text in a single cell in ALV?

Hi all,
I have 'Material Detailed Description' field in my ALV report, and it's taken from a multiple line text table. Is there any way so I can get this whole text to fit in a single ALV cell (not in single, but multiple line, as in original text data)?
Thank you.

Hi
If you want you can display this long text field in ALV but the allignment of the ALV not looks good. so generally we won't display them in the output,
instead, in the interactive list write the code to call that MM03 transaction, and the user can see that text in the transaction when ever double clicked on that MATERIAL field.

Acrobat Pro 9: "Merge files into a single pdf" creates blank pages

I have a similar problem as a previous post (which hasn't been answered).
I am able to pdf individual Word documents fine, but when I try to Combine > Merge files into a single pdf, the resulting pdf pages are all blank. I don't receive any error messages or have problems saving the file.
I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 (9.5.1) on Windows 7.
The merging of pdf's hasn't worked at all since I installed the program.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Bill
Thanks so very much - you have solved the problem.
I tried Document > Insert Pages and that worked.
I then ran the "Repair" feature on Adobe which installed a few updates and I am now also able to merge pdf's by using the "Combine" feature and all the pages show the text/info.
Thanks again for your help, it is very much appreciated.
Thank you also to Apoorv for your assistance.

Scripting Selective XML into a Single Text Frame? (& Some Other Stuff...)

Hi all, I could use some help (using version CS5.5).
I want to import (via Javascript) an XML file similar to this:
<movieRoot>
 <dvds>
 <movie>
 <title>2001: A Space Odyssey</title>
 <edition>Special Edition</edition>
 <features>NOTHING</features>
 <notes/>
 </movie>
 <movie>
 <title>Airplane!</title>
 <edition />
 <features>Extra Laughs</features>
 <notes/>
 </movie>
 </dvds>
</movieRoot>
I've been able to successfully do this, so no problem there.
Then I want to dump the child elements under the XML element "<dvds>" into a single text frame that spans 2 columns per page. That's easy enough too, except:
1) I want to filter the data so that empty elements or whose contents equal "NOTHING" do not appear.
2) I want to add static text title above some of the elements that remain (outside the XML proper).
3) Then I want to format the text (using Paragraph Styles).
Tall order, I know, but I'm keen on figuring it out. I initially created a document using placeholders and used the standard XML Import to populate it with data, which was filtered using scripts to remove extraneous placeholders and static text. It gave me the result I wanted, but as the XML will be regularly updated and since the "filtered" tags result in non-standard XML entries, it means starting over from scratch after every XML update. So I turned to scripting...
For point #1, I was able to filter properly using a recursive IF statement, tested here using message alerts:
I've included a bunch of variables for (hopefully) easier viewing.
var myXMLRoot = myDocument.xmlElements.item(0); //movieRoot
var myXMLParent = myXMLRoot.xmlElements.item(0); //dvds
var myXMLElement = myXMLParent.xmlElements.item(0); //movie
var currElement = myXMLElement.xmlElements.item(0); //title
for (i = 0; i < myXMLParent.xmlElements.length; i++)
 myXMLElement = myXMLParent.xmlElements.item(i);
 for (j = 0; j < myXMLElement.xmlElements.length; j++)
 currElement = myXMLElement.xmlElements.item(j);
 if (currElement.contents != "" && currElement.contents != "NOTHING")
 alert (currElement.markupTag.name + ": " + currElement.contents);
It worked great until I tried to get it into an existing text frame. Since I want all the info in one text frame, placexml was out of the question, and markup worked but overwrote XML tags -- such as assigning the entire text frame to <movie/title> when I wanted it assigned to <dvds> with <movie/title> tags nested within it.
If you can help me with anything, this is really where I need pointed in the right direction most. But if you're feeling generous or bored...
Then for points #2 and #3, I want to take what's left ("filtered" XML data) and add additional text and formatting wherever certain tags are found.
For example, applying the paragraph style "MovieTitles" for any text within <title></title> XML tags; or adding the phrase "Special Features" (with paragraph style "Headers") above any text marked with <features> tags, while the content within those <features> tags applies the paragraph style "NormalText."
I've got some of this worked out in pieces already, but it generally falls apart because I can't get the tag structure correct in the text frame. I can provide more info as requested. Any help would be mighty appreciated!
UPDATE: Surprisingly, I've actually had some good success this evening on solving most of these problems. I'll post my results once I've finished up just in case anyone else can be helped by what I've learned.
One question remains for the moment: I've inserted text within an XML element, but outside of XML tags (e.g., </title>EDITION:<edition>) using "insertTextAsContent":
[xmlElementHere].insertTextAsContent("EDITION:", XMLElementPosition.beforeElement);
Does anyone know a good way to apply a paragraph style to that text without using a find & replace function later (after placing the XML into a text frame)?

As posted into the other thread:
Yes, each record will be in its own frame.
You can use one of a couple solutions to stitch (link) each frame to the other, delete all but the first page and the first merged record, then resize that first merge frame and reflow the entire document.
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1341730?start=0&tstart=0
Please review this thread. There is a couple posts with a script and you would want the last version of that script. You would have to follow the directions, as well as add a column at the beginning of your data and fill it with consecutive numbers.
Alternatively, there is a free plug-in by Rohiko for stitching merge data frames together, then follow the process above to reflow the document.

Can you merge 2 single-page PDFs into 1 single-page PDF?

I'm not having luck adding text with line breaks to a pdf, as apparently the Text Box tool does not like line breaks. So I'm wondering if I can take a pdf with the text I want, which is a full paragraph and merge into another pdf of my company letterhead. (I cannot recreate the letterhead as I paid a company to make it long ago. Nor do I have the tools or expertise to do so.) So if I strategically place the text I want in the first pdf in such a way as to not overlap the graphics on my letterhead, can I merge two pdfs into a single page where the data on the pdfs overlaps each other?

Hi WillCD,
Yes It is possible to copy that paragraph by selecting text and then paste that paragraph to your company letter head pdf.
and no you can't merge two pdfs in such a way that it overlaps the data of resultant pdf.
Does that help? Please let me know if i have misinterpreted your issue or if you need any further assistance.

Rahul

Is it possible to merge images from 4 different folders into a single 4x4 image with ps scripting?

So I have four folders that each contain 970 images. The images in folder 1 are named exactly the same as the images in folder 2, 3, and 4. All the images are also 400px in size. What I'm trying to do is take all images of the same name from each of the 4 folders and put them into a single 800x800 images so that they are arranged in a 4x4 fashion.
Example: Each folder has an image named mastiff1.psd. All four mastiff images are different, but have the same name, and are the same size. I'd like all four mastiff images to be combined into one double-size image that has all four of the mastiff images on it and save as mastiff1-4x4.
Is that something that photoshop scripting could do? I'm a newb to this. I've used actions plenty, but never scripting.

To script well you need to know a scripting programming language either JavaScript which works on both Photoshop Platforms or AppleScript which will only Apple Mac machines, Or VSbasic which will only run on windows. You must also know how Photoshop works and know how to use Photoshop well.
There are some things that can not be scripted for Adobe DOM does not have interfaces methods for all of Photoshop's features. However there is an Adobe Plug-in with the name Scriptlistener witch is like a script recorder anything you do in Photoshop that can be recorded in actions will be recorded into two logs on you desktop when the Scriptlistener plug-in is installed one is in JavaScript syntax the other in VSbasic. Like Actions there is no logic just hard coded step, step, step... The code uses the Action Manager to do the Photoshop function. So things that can not be scripted using Adobe DOM can be scripted using Action Manager code produced by the Scriptlistener Plug-in and the hard coded steps can be modifies into javascript functions that use variables.
I feel what you want to do would be a real ambitious first Photoshop script. Adobe scripting documentation, sample script and Scriptlistener are not part of the standard install. You must download these from Adobe. Adobe Photoshop Scripting | Adobe Developer Connection.
I don't actually know javascript but I can hack at it. Have done some document layout scripts. Most require a PSD template but PasteImageRoll does not but all Image must come from the same folder. Most of my fully automated script require all image to be in the same folder. However two of my scripts are interactive. You can select each image to be layout from anywhere. Images will be automatically re-sized and positioned which you can then tweak.
I'm not the best coder still you may want to look ate the code I came up with.

Concatenation of Data from 4 infoobjects into a single cell in Bex Report

Hi,
I have loaded ODS with the description data. The source system for loading the ODS is the flat file. The ODS data should be a replica of the flat file.
In the flat file, there is a description field corresponding to a particular ID. This Description is greater than the standard 60 char length. So, I had to split the description while loading the flat file using single line routine in the Transfer Structure.
So, while loading different the data, I split the description field data from the flat file into 4 infoobjects and the flat file data was loaded into the ODS.
Now, from the reporting point of view, I need to display the entire description data from the 4 info-objects into a single cell in the Bex report.
Please suggest a solution for this.
