How is setlinewidth changed on the same page?

We have our PostScript printer driver send a text file with some extra instructions. Among other things, this file establishes a custom "6 setlinewidth" mainly for fractional divider lines. The custom value is apparently reset to the default value of 1 with each new page, which is convenient. However, on some pages with such a line we also wish to a character to be drawn. The strokes used in drawing the character on those pages are set at a width of 6, but that is too black and too blurry for a character. The PS default setting of 1 would be appropriate, and we can see that it is on pages that don't have horizontal lines. The wordprocessing program allows printer commands and files to be sent anywhere on the page. My approach to getting a drawn character of default thickness was to insert the command before the character and, if need be for further lines on the page, after it. But a printer command of "1 setlinewidth" (or any other value) results merely in a gap being left for the character. What PS code will tell the character to be printed in the space left for it?

Gosh. Hardly an "Acrobat" question, is it?
You are injecting some custom Postscript instruction in the middle of an existing stream, so it's no wonder you get mixed results. Anything you want to 'hide' from the main stream should be bracketed by
gsave
  .. your custom commands here ..
grestore
commands, exactly not to get the unwanted side-effects you are experiencing now.

  • How do I change back the print pages box?

    I refreshed Firefox and my print pages box changed. It went from having a long box allowing me to type in say the 1-3, 6,10 pages to two small "from" & "to" boxes. I really need this back to the way it was for my business. I checked IE and that print setup is still the same with the long print page box. How can I fix this issue on Firefox?

    Thank you Gramps.  It took some time, but I've got it working now.  I had to re-do all the user authentication actions from scratch for one of the databases, but it's finally behaving itself now.  I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction.

    I don't know what happened. All of a sudden, my settings have been changed, my homepage, and EVERYTHING. No matter how many times I go in and change them again, the SAME pages open up when I start FireFox and I am constantly being asked if I want Yahoo as my start page and default search engine. I click the box 'do not ask me again' and it comes up EVERY TIME. I change things like I don't want history remembered, and when I reload FireFox again, it's back to the way it was BEFORE. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I don't know why this is happening, or how to fix it. What do I do??

  • How do I create a duplicate image inside the same page? Then how do I change the color of that image

    how do I create a duplicate image inside the same page? Then how do I change the color of that image from black to red?

    Hello there!
    Here is one way to create a duplicate image and colorize it. As you can see below, I have one image right now, that I want to duplicate.
    My layers panel looks like below.
    To duplicate your image, click the downward arrow on the right side of your Layer Panel.
    Select Duplicate Layer. This will duplicate the layer that the image is on.
    Select "OK" to approve the duplication.
    As you can now see in the Layers panel, the image is duplicated. The new layer is now at the top of the Layer panel.
    Now to colorize your image, go to Window > Adjustments.
    The Adjustments panel will now be opened. Select the Hue and Saturation icon as seen circled in red.
    The Hue and Saturation propertied panel will be opened. I selected "Colorize", and adjusted the hue and saturation bar to achieve the level red in my photo.
    As you can see below, the image is now red.
    Now i want to make sure only ONE of my image layers is red. I moved the Hue and Saturation layer to only be on top of the bottom layer. The image on the top layer now will not be affected by the red.
    Select the move tool, so I can now move the image layers so we can see both of them.
    With each image layer selected, you can take the move tool and move the images. I moved mine on top of eachother and you can see my red layer (bottom) and the non red layer (top).
    I hope that helps. i have also included helpful links.
    Please post back with any questions,

  • How to make a link in a report open a Form in a different region of the same page ?

    Hi,
    I developped a report and a form for the same table. I also created a link and used it in my report so that when I click on the link of one record, the form is opened and display this record.
    My problem is that when I include my report as a portlet and I click on a link, the form is opened in full screen mode by replacing the page containing my report.
    What should I do in order to open this form in another region of the same page ?
    Thanks a lot

    I presume that the two regions are working fine with their individual buttons and your issue is how to make them both save with one button.
    Here is how
    a. You will have 2 ApplyMRU and 1 ApplyMRD processes for each of the regions. Right? Lets say you have 2 "Save" (i.e. label=Save) buttons, one has name SUBMIT and the other SAVE ( SUBMIT and SAVE being the requests that will be sent when they are clicked , respectively)
    b. Make the Display condition on one of the buttons 'Never'. Now it won't show when you run the page. Lets say you made SAVE's conditional Display 'Never'
    c. Go and change the condition on all ApplyMRU and ApplyMRD processes from "When Button Pressed" to "Request is contains in Expression1". In Expression1 enter SUBMIT,SAVERegards

  • How to load multiple HTML5 canvas on the same page (the proper method)

    Hi,
    I've been struggling to load multiple canvas animations on the same page. At the beggining I thought that exporting the movies with different namespaces and reloading the libraries in a sequential flow might work, but it doesn't. It always loads just the last animation loaded. More info here: Coding challenge: what am I doing wrong?
    Here is a sample of what I'm doing:
    1st: Publish two flash movies with custom namespaces for "lib" set in the "publish settings": "libFirst" and "libSecond".
    2nd: Edit the canvas tags in the HTML page. One called "firstCanvas" and the other one called "secondCanvas"
    3rd: Edit the javascript like this:
            <script>
                // change the default namespace for the CreateJS libraries:
                var createjsFirst = createjsFirst||{};
                var createjs = createjsFirst;
            </script>
            <script src="//code.createjs.com/easeljs-0.7.1.min.js"></script>
            <script src="//code.createjs.com/tweenjs-0.5.1.min.js"></script>
            <script src="//code.createjs.com/movieclip-0.7.1.min.js"></script>
            <script src="{{assets}}/js/first.js"></script>
            <script>
                function initFirstAnimation() {
                    var canvas, stage, exportRoot;
                    canvas = document.getElementById("firstCanvas");
                    exportRoot = new libFirst.first();
                    stage = new createjsFirst.Stage(canvas);
                    stage.addChild(exportRoot);
                    stage.update();
                    createjsFirst.Ticker.setFPS(libFirst.properties.fps);
                    createjsFirst.Ticker.addEventListener("tick", stage);
            </script>
            <script>
                // change the default namespace for the CreateJS libraries:
                var createjsSecond = createjsSecond||{};
                var createjs = createjsSecond;
            </script>
            <script src="//code.createjs.com/easeljs-0.7.1.min.js"></script>
            <script src="//code.createjs.com/tweenjs-0.5.1.min.js"></script>
            <script src="//code.createjs.com/movieclip-0.7.1.min.js"></script>
            <script src="{{assets}}/js/second.js"></script>
            <script>
                function initSecondAnimation() {
                    var canvas, stage, exportRoot;
                    canvas = document.getElementById("secondCanvas");
                    exportRoot = new libSecond.second();
                    stage = new createjsSecond.Stage(canvas);
                    stage.addChild(exportRoot);
                    stage.update();
                    createjsSecond.Ticker.setFPS(libSecond.properties.fps);
                    createjsSecond.Ticker.addEventListener("tick", stage);
            </script>
    <body onload="initFirstAnimation(); initSecondAnimation();">
    Could someone please reply with the best practice on how to do this? If possible, without the need to reload all the libraries...
    If I only need to show one flash movie at a time, would it be more efficient to cut & paste the canvas tag using jQuery in the DOM and reloading a different lib on it?
    Many thanks!
    #flash #reborn

    I was able to fix it. At the end, it was easier than I thought. Just have to publish using a different "lib" namespace for each movie, load all the scripts at the end of the <body> and then add the following to the onload or ready events:
    $(document).ready(function () {
            var canvas, stage, exportRoot;
            // First movie
            canvas = document.getElementById("firstCanvas");
            exportRoot = new libFirst.first();
            stage = new createjs.Stage(canvas);
            stage.addChild(exportRoot);
            stage.update();
            createjs.Ticker.setFPS(libFirst.properties.fps);
            createjs.Ticker.addEventListener("tick", stage);
            // Second movie
            canvas = document.getElementById("secondCanvas");
            exportRoot = new libSecond.second();
            stage = new createjs.Stage(canvas);
            stage.addChild(exportRoot);
            stage.update();
            createjs.Ticker.setFPS(libSecond.properties.fps);
            createjs.Ticker.addEventListener("tick", stage);
            // Third movie
            canvas = dument.getElementById("thirdCanvas");
            exportRoot = new libThird.third();
            stage = new createjs.Stage(canvas);
            stage.addChild(exportRoot);
            stage.update();
            createjs.Ticker.setFPS(libThird.properties.fps);
            createjs.Ticker.addEventListener("tick", stage);

  • How to pass a parameter from a report to multiple forms in the same page

    Hi:
    i have a report and a lot of forms in the same page. The fact is that i want to stablish a link over a filed in the report which would make some information appear in those forms so that information could be updated. For example: i have a report with company names. Over those names i want to put a link. When the link would be pressed the forms would reflect the information about that comany. Is this possible to be done? how can i do this or something similar?
    Thanks.
    Regards. Urko.

    Please see post Re: session state security
    It has been done for a single form in a page and can be extended to multiple forms as well.

  • How to open a link from search engine in the same page

    I just noticed that my links are opening in new windows instead of on the same page on Safari. Is there anyway I can change it back to where if I click on a link in the Yahoo search engine that it would just open within the same page without opening a new tab or window, where I can go back and forth between pages? For example, say I type in "wikipedia" on Yahoo home page and click search. Then it takes me to the Yahoo! Search Results page with a link to the Wikipedia website. When I click on that link, the Wikipedia home page loads right within the same page instead of opening a new tab or window and loading into that new tab or window. If I wanted to go back to the search results, I can just click the back button. I remember Safari doing that before, is there anyway to get back to that? Thanks.

  • How do I type Hebrew and English on the same page

    How do I type Hebrew and English on the same page in Indesign?

    What version of InDesign are you using? And on what operating system? Switching keyboard ("input methods") is in your OS, not in InDesign. InDesign has had the capability to display right-to-left languages since CS4, but only the Middle East edition has the abilities to actually manipulate Hebrew text. If you're trying to do a bilingual, bidirectional document, you'll need the ME edition. If you are a CC subscriber, it comes with your subscription; if you are not, you'll need to buy another version of ID, or a plugin that will allow you to access those RTL features.
