How can I maintain multiple white spaces in a PDF written from InDesign?

I need to have 2 white spaces maintained (within a part #) in the PDF I write, but when I open in Acrobat it converts it to one space.
I've tried word spaces, set spaces and applying "no color" to a placeholder character and nothing is working!
Any ideas or suggestions?

I am talking about normal white space. Multiple fixed widt spaces are not a problem. How the space is handled in a PDF depends on how it is created.

It may not be a great idea to use multiple spaces, but it certainly is not prohibited and sometimes is necessary -- you might want a 2em space, or a thin space before and after a tab you underline in a form.
I'm able to select the multiple spaces just fine in Acrobat 9 using the text touch-up tool.

  • How can we maintain multiple payment terms for a customer

    how can we maintain multiple payment terms for a customer?

    Hi,
    You can leave the Payment terms field in the sales area data tab blank. and you can enter the payment terms at line item level while creating the sales order. By that you will achieve multiple payment terms for the same customer in the same sales order. but the invoice will be split by standard SAP based on the payment terms.
    Also difference between the "Payment Terms" field in Company code tab and the sales Area tab is.
    Company code tab payment terms are used only for the documents that are posted directly in FI module. for example credit and debit memos posted directly in FI and as a leading practice this should always be "payable Immidiately"
    Sales area Tab payment terms are the one which are copied on to the sales order header data which are valid for all the line items unless you specifically mention different payment terms at line item level.
    Regards,

    How can I have multiple iphones on itunes without them sharing contact info

    If contacts on each iPhone are being synced direct with the same supported address book app on the computer via the iTunes sync process, deselect Sync Contacts under the Info tab for the iPhones that you don't want synced with the same address book followed by a sync.
    If each iPhone is sharing the same Apple iCloud account with Contacts enabled for over the air syncing, each iPhone needs its own iCloud account.

  • How do I remove the white space when importing a site from Flash?

    Okay, so I've dragged and dropped my created Flash site into Dreamweaver. One problem though, when I view it in a web browser (any web browser), it displays the site fine, however with a huge white space to the side of it. You'll see what I mean in this screenshot:
    What can I do then to remove that white space and make the site fill up the whole web browser? I've tried resizing it using a number of ways, but cannot seem to get it right.
    Thanks.

    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}

    You can do two things:
    1) Change the width of the container to 100%;  OR
    2) Post a link to your test page here (not the code nor picture) so that we can see ourselves what your code looks like.

  • How can I get consecutive blank spaces in a PDF?

    Native file is built in InDesign CS6.
    I have 2 fixed-width spaces within a part number. When I export to a PDF and open in Acrobat it is reading it as one space.
    i.e.  Dealer opens PDF to copy part number and paste into a Word document. Part number has a two-digit variable number but it's only reading as a single space in the PDF.
    Any ideas or suggestions?

    PDF is not a good format for the storage and exact retrieval of textual information. A key reason is that frequently there are no spaces in PDF, just a horizontal gap whose interpretation is in the eye of the viewer. Tagging the PDF from InDesign might help.

  • How can I fix my Firefox browser so that PDF files from the Internet do not blur and go out of focus?

    When I try to open a PDF document from the Internet, it opens, with sharp resolution; however, within a few seconds, it blurs and seems to have multiple copies being shown on top of each other (ever so slightly mis-aligned). Yet, when I use any other browser, the document opens without losing sharpness.
    Also, opening a saved PDF document in Adobe Reader does not cause any loss of sharpness.
    Running updated Windows XP; Adobe Reader updated; and Firefox updated.

    Firefox's built-in PDF viewer overlays a transparent layer of text over a graphical image so you can copy/paste. It doesn't always line up pixel-perfectly, so if the text is not transparent for some reason, you will see double text.
    Could you try switching to the Adobe Acrobat plugin? This article has the steps: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]]. Does that one work correctly?

  • How can I drag multiple photos into a new iPhoto library from search box?

    I lost but found my list of photos that were in my iPhoto library. I am unable to drag more than one photo at a time from the search box into the new iPhoto library box. Am I doing something wrong or do I have to drag one at a time? (That would take hours.) Please help if you can!
    Thanks,
    Laure

    Roam,
    Thanks again. I know how to highlight and drag multiple photos or a list of files, but the only place I found my list was by going to Finder>File>Find then a dialogue box comes up. In the dialogue box I put in iPhoto and checked that then put in "kind" "is" "image" and "size" "is greater than" "30" KB. When I click search, the entire list from my library comes up but that is when I am unable to drag more than one file at a time. The box that comes up when I search isn't (at least I don't think it is) a "folder" as such. Any suggesttions?

  • How can i add multiple photos to an imovie at once from my ipad?

    I am trying to create an imovie of photos that I have stored on my ipad using my ipad. It is only letting me add one photo at a time which is taking way too long. Is there a way to add multiple photos at once? Also, can I apply changes (like removing the Ken Burns effect all at once from all of the pictures? Hopefully I dont have to do it one at a time or it will take waay too long!

  • White space in image when copying from Indesign to Photoshop

    Hopefully this is in the correct place for this question.
    Am using Indesign CS4 (windows, XP) and have created a bounding box to place image and text into for layout. Then I select it all and copy to Photoshop for exporting for the web. I would do the lot in Photoshop but Indesign's better for layout. Anyway, I have the correct size image and all but when I copy to Photoshop I get a 1 pixel white line at the top.
    The bounding box in Indesign has no stroke or fill so I can't see where this 1 pixel white line is coming from. Tis very annoying. Anyone got any ideas as to why?

    Thanks for your answer but I'm trying to make this as simple as possible for others who may have to do this task. I ended up putting a 1 pixel line around the outside of the image. It covers up the white line at the top and it fits in with the webpage design too.

  • How do I keep same margin size in a pdf exported from InDesign?

    I created a single page document in InDesign. When I export to pdf the margins become larger and the page body is reduced. What can I do to make the pdf print and apprear exactly as the created page?

    When viewed or when printed? I suspect the latter, and that would be becasue you have "Fit to Printable Area" or whatever the current term is set in the Acrobat print dialog. Reset the scaling to None.

  • How can I make multiple pictures slowly fade to white in FCP X ?

    I am new to FCP X and I'm creating a picture slideshow.  How can I make multiple pictures slowly fade to white in FCP X ?
    For example, I would like to have 10 pictures all play in 5 seconds, and starting off with the 1st one being little light; 2nd lighter; 3rd lightter; etc., to 10th being completly white screen...
    Can anyone help ?

    Here is what I would do. Add a 5 second white generator solid to your storyline. Add your 10 half second clips as attached clips. Select them all, right click and make a compound clip. Then keyframe the compound clips opacity from 100% t0 0% with one keyframe at the beginning and one at the end. That will give you a linear reduction in opacity over the 5 seconds(10 pics). You can play with the keyframes to get the effect you want if linear isn't doing it.
