Formati Changes when Exporting to a Word Document

I have recently upgrade to RH7 form X5, and no when I export
to word the formating of numbered lists is not correct.
I have used syltes in RH to specify numbering, and matched
those to styles in word which seam to work as much as numbering
ever does in word. When I export to word text that used the same
style is formated differently (indents etc) in word. However when I
manually reapply the style in word it seems to sort out the
paragraph formatting, although sometimes the numbering is messed
up.
It all worked fine in X5

Is there a difference between charecter sets in apple
and microsoft that could cause this as I know that
appleworks doesn't use unicode?
I believe there is a difference between the ASCII text character sets used by Apple and Microsoft. The English characters are identical but uncommon characters are different. I suspect this difference is what's happening when converting these Tibetan characters.
If so, an bright
ideas as to how to get around moving obscure symbols
between platforms??
Only to do a Find and Replace for each of the different characters when moving from platform to platform. If this conversion will happen frequently you may be able to automate this process using AW 5 macros or AppleScript on the Mac platform, or Visual Basic on the Windows platform.

  • Format Changes when Exporting to PDF

    I'm using Crystal 12.0 and have an issue very similar to these threads listed below. 
    While viewing a report on my development machine, all is fine.  I can export to PDF and the formatting is OK. 
    However, when the report is exported to PDF on the web server, the spacing between some of the text is off.  The spacing is used for a CrossTab cell in a "Display String" that I changed using "Format Field."   All that's supposed to happen here is several spaces are used to move the text under the proper column. 
    When exporting to PDF on the web, the text moves over to the left like it's missing some of the spaces.  I wondering if the below threads apply to Crystal 12.0.

    Format Changes when Exporting to PDF
    Thanks kindly for your assistance,
    -Marty

    I'm having a very similar problem using Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2008. Everything is perfect when running in VS 2008, it takes the report and exports it to PDF format via VB code. The PDF file is idenitcal to the report. However, when run on the server the one page report (when exported to PDF) gets chopped into ten 4x4 chunks. So the PDF file is 10 pages....its like puzzle pieces of the original.
    I've drawn a bunch of lines on the report to look like boxes - perhaps this is causing issues? The font on the report is Arial.
    The server has the 10_5 runtime installed and it is set to the same default printer as the development PC. I have been stuck on this for days and would really appreciate any advice you may have.
    Thanks!

  • Format changing when exporting from InDesign to PDF

    I am using Acrobat 8 version 8.1.2, and InDesign version 5.0.2.
    I am noticing a very specific problem when exporting some files to PDF from InDesign.
    We often have a format where we have a numbered list of right-aligned number, followed by some text, a leader line, and then another number at the end of the line. This is set up with a left indent and a first line left indent (rather than using the numbered list options), and then the necessary tabs later in the lines.
    I am finding since we switched to IDCS3, that when I export to PDF, lines containing this format change in the PDF. The text that appears after the number in the front of the line is pushed over on top of the leader line, leaving a huge white space. On rarer occasions, it will move things in lines that have no indents, but contain tabs that aren't being used.
    I have been able to get the files to export correctly by removing the left indent and first-line left indent and using tabs instead (or by removing unused tabs). But we have hundreds of files set up in this manner so going in and changing how they are all set up is problematic to say the least.
    Is this a known issue? Does anyone know why this might happen and how I can prevent it?

    I haven't tried printing to PDF. I will try that and see what happens. Unfortunetly, where I work we are required to export to PDF rather than print to PDF, so if it works it will only be a clue for me rather than a solution.
    Thanks for the reply. I'll try a cross post to the InDesign forms.

  • Complex charecter changes when exporting to MS word

    I hope someone can help here because I've been mulling over this for a while.
    I've been working with some files that were typed using AW 5 and I've managed to open them on AW 6 in os 9 with no problem. the key issue is that I'm using a font called lTibetan. this font creates tibetan script from roman numerals by using complex combinations of of unusual symbols. here's an example.
    -a$-’ Ë*!’ [*-’ v-’ [[-
    When I export the files to MS word (or even appleworks running under 10.4) using either RTF intermediate, MacLink, html or copied from a PDF, slight changes to the charecters creep in.
    when I compare the two formats in a roman font, certain charecters don't translate over, such as the † symbol.
    Is there a difference between charecter sets in apple and microsoft that could cause this as I know that appleworks doesn't use unicode? If so, an bright ideas as to how to get around moving obscure symbols between platforms??
    many thanks

  • Crystal Reports Formatting issues when exporting to Word Editable document

    Version: CR XI, I am editing a document exported from CR to Word Editable
    When exporting to a Word Editable (.rtf) document the formatting changes.  For example: lines that were drawn in the report do not come across, there  is a tab in front of each line and a carriage return at the end of each line and spacing and justification formatting are not the same.  Is there a way to export to Word Editable and keep the formatting integrity? This report was developed by a third party but I can edit it if needed.

    Pages 5 is, as an early reviewer put it, "an unmitigated disaster." Not only does it lack some 100 feautres that are present in Pages 09 (4.3), it is also VERY buggy, A quick look through these discussions will reveal a painful litany of data corruption, files that cannot be opened, lost data, and other anomalies. Links do not export reliably to PDFs, and, as you've discovered, export to .docx format is unreliable. Sadly, the best advice is to trash Pages 5.1 and use Pages 4.3 or — yes, it's come to that — Word instead.

    When I download Microsoft word documents (if have word 2007), I have somehow changed the settings and it downloads them in wordpad, and the format is very bad and I can't read a lot of the document. How do I change the default setting back to using Microsoft Word 2007 to open these documents?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == about a few weeks ago - I had tried to open some docuuments saved on a mac, my PC (which runs Windows 7), used word pad to open these, and this seems to have changed the default settings somehow.

  • When i copy a word document into the body of an email, it arrives in a distorted format.  what can i do to insure it will arrive in the body of the email as it appears in my word document?

    Sounds like the Word file may have right justification. You can turn that off within Word.
    You can also save the file as a pdf using these instructions:

    and send the pdf instead.

  • How do I change a PDF to a word document?

    How do i change aa PDF to a word document?

    In Mac preferred method (because it uses Adobe's PDF engine):
    Save file as word Document (for Backup)
    Go to Print Menu
    Click and hold on PDF button until context menu appears
    Choose Adobe PDF
    Wait for menu to change - choose quality (this eqivelent to job options in Distiller) and turn off open with Reader (or Acrobat)
    Then click okay to go to nex window item
    Either use Title assigned or change (I usually remove references to Microsoft Word-, and .docx so it just shows as for example Joes.pdf),
    Browse (pick out) to desired save Location.
    Click Save.
    Go to location saved and open.
    Notes: Expect to multiple PDF if the Word document page have switches in Page orientations.
    URL links won't cme over with this method.
    To have Urls to be active (except those created with the Format menu > URL)
    Do the following:
    Locate the Word Document
    Locate the acrobat Icon on the Dock (similar to Start up menu on PC)
    Drag the word document to the icon of Acrobat on Dock and Drop
    Wait ........... You might have enough time to boil you a pot of coffee
    When PDF pops up on screen save at once!
    You will now have a document that will have live MailTo's and URL's except for those created with the URL wizard ( select desired word> go to Formtat menu > URL >when opens type desired URL or Mailto)
    This is a 15 year old bug Adobe refuses to fix. Don't bleive the blather the put out bout the proper hook in Mac Version That's been proven as false years ago.

    Olá bahl2
    Pode, por favor explicar sua dúvida em português mesmo?  Porque, em inglês, está difícil entender o que você precisa :/.
    Você publicou sua pergunta no fórum de scripts de Adobe Illustrator, ao invés do fórum geral. Você está exportando o documento por meio de um script, é isso?
    Quando você se refere a "cortinhos", você se refere a aquelas finas divisões em seu plano de fundo vermelho?

  • Got errors when trying to open word document with Office Web App Server and customized WOPI host

    I am configuring the Office Web App Server with our ASP.NET MVC WOPI host based on this example. https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/office/Building-an-Office-Web-f98650d6. While both the OWA server and WOPI server has been set up and I can use Excel and PowerPoint

    When I open a word document while enabling editing I got this error:
    If I disable editing I got this message:
    I have tried several file so I thought it is not the files' problem. Also I didn't find any exception in the log of OWA server. 

    Hi Gary Jiang,
    Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
    This forum is for developers discussing issues about
    apps for Office.
    Based on the description, it seems that you got an issue when you deploy the code sample. If I understood clearly, I suggest that you contact the author of the code sample from the "Q and A" tab.
    Also if you have the question about WOPI, I suggest that you get more effective response from
    Office

    The mail app will not display fillable form fields in PDF files that can be seen in real PDF apps. I say real PDF apps because the form fields in PDF apps will not appear in the iBooks app either. IMO, iBooks is not a real PDF app.
    So, I would say that the mail app cannot differentiate between hidden and non hidden items
