How Select All Text Objects with Specific Contents and Move to Top-Center?

Mavens,
In a ~230 page InDesign CC Book (9 INDD files), on about ~35 pages, there is a small text block with the word "NOTES."
Currently, the NOTES text block is in the Middle-Center of the page. I would like to find a way for InDesign to move all ~35 instances of the NOTES text block to the Top-Center (of the page each text block is on).
Is there an easy way to do this with Edit --> Find/Change?
Thanks!

Probably not.
That text block really belongs on a master page applied to those 35 pages, and if it is, all you have to do is move it on the master page. If it isn't, you've got some work to do. Probably easiest to fix one, then coy it and use Paste in Place on the other pages, and delete the frame that's in the wrong place.

How to discover text objects with specific point size

Can I somehow narrow down the selection to point size xx and smaller? I'd like to outline those objects later.
var alltxtObjsBelow10 = app.activeDocument.stories.everyItem() //...with point size smaller than 10pts
alltxtObjsBelow10.createOutlines();

Try this.
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var texts = doc.stories.everyItem().textStyleRanges.everyItem().getElements();
for(var i=0;i<texts.length;i++)
if(texts[i].pointSize < 10)
texts[i].createOutlines();

How to spin an object with both x and z-rotation in M3G?

I want to spin an object with both x and z-rotation in M3G. I get a good result when I implement this in OpenGL, but the combined rotation doesn't get right when I try to do this in M3G. The x rotation and the z rotation looks like they should when I only use one of them. This is achieved by adding only spinAnimationTrack or rotationAnimationTrack. The problem is that the rotation gets messed up when I add both spinAnimationTrack and rotationAnimationTrack. What am I doing wrong? This is my code:
KeyframeSequence spinKeyframes =
new KeyframeSequence(3, 4, KeyframeSequence.SLERP);
spinKeyframes.setRepeatMode(KeyframeSequence.LOOP);
spinKeyframes.setDuration(4000);
spinKeyframes.setKeyframe(0, 0,
getRotationQuaternion(-50.0f, new float[]{1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f}));
spinKeyframes.setKeyframe(1, 2000,
getRotationQuaternion(50.0f, new float[]{1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f}));
spinKeyframes.setKeyframe(2, 4000,
getRotationQuaternion(-50.0f, new float[]{1.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f}));
AnimationTrack spinAnimationTrack =
new AnimationTrack(spinKeyframes,
AnimationTrack.ORIENTATION);
AnimationController animatorS = new AnimationController();
spinAnimationTrack.setController(animatorS);
animatorS.setSpeed(0.4f * speed, 0);
KeyframeSequence rotationKeyframes =
new KeyframeSequence(2, 4, KeyframeSequence.SLERP);
rotationKeyframes.setRepeatMode(KeyframeSequence.LOOP);
rotationKeyframes.setDuration(4000);
rotationKeyframes.setKeyframe(0, 0,
getRotationQuaternion(359.0f, new float[]{0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f}));
rotationKeyframes.setKeyframe(1, 4000,
getRotationQuaternion(0.0f, new float[]{0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f}));
AnimationTrack rotationAnimationTrack1 =
new AnimationTrack(rotationKeyframes,
AnimationTrack.ORIENTATION);
rotationAnimationTrack1.setController(animatorR1);
animatorR1.setSpeed(0.4f * speed, 0);
mesh1.addAnimationTrack(spinAnimationTrack);
mesh1.addAnimationTrack(rotationAnimationTrack1);

People often make this harder than it is. It's usually not necessary to using clipping paths or to make cuts confined to the areas of overlap to make objects appear to intertwine. Usually, you can simply cut where objects do not overlap. There are no masks, clipping paths, pathfinders, etc., involved in this knot:
Your specific situation may be somewhat complicated by the use of drop shadows, depending on the specific parameters.

Find a specific Sublayer and move to top level layer

I have a lot of illustrator files that are organized by a template size. The layers are setup so that the top level layer is always Template. However the sublayer I need to move to the top level could be called 42 Pg Border or 30 Pg Border or 24 Pg Border.
Is there a way for a script to search through the layers and if it finds "42 Pg Border" or "30 Pg Border" or "24 Pg Border" in the sublayer Template it would move it to the top level but if it doesn't see one of those it doesn't give an error?
I'm still new to scripting so the extent of my knowledge on this is to scan all the layers and unlock them. Then look for a specific layer name. It's the sublayer and moving it to the top level that I am not sure of.
Here is my current code:
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var allLayers = doc.layers;
for (var i = allLayers.length-1; i >= 0; i--){
    allLayers[i].locked = false;
    if (allLayers[i].name == "42 Pg Border" || allLayers[i].name == "30 Pg Border" || allLayers[i].name == "24 Pg Border") {
        alert("I found the " + allLayers[i].name + " layer")
    } else {
        alert("Not the right layer")
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I am using CS4 on a Windows 64 Bit PC with JavaScript

OK so that code is really close! I tweaked it a bit. I kept getting an error that said cannot move a locked layer. So I just made a loop to unlock ALL the layers first thing. Then to get rid of some of the "extra" code I wrote I changed this line:
if (layer.name == "42 Pg Border" || layer.name == "30 Pg Border" || layer.name == "24 Pg Border") {
to this.....
if ((layer.name).substr(-6) == "Border") {
So now instead of looking for 42 30 24 (and other border templates I may have to add) I just told it to look at the 6 characters at the end of the string (which will always be the word Border).
OK so now the code runs and does what it is supposed to but I am getting an undefined in my javascript console in extendscript. Any ideas?
Current updated code:
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var allLayers = doc.layers;
var count = 0;
for (var z = allLayers.length-1; z >= 0; z--){
    allLayers[z].locked = false;
for (var i = allLayers.length-1; i >= 0; i--){
deeper(allLayers[i]);
if (count == 0){
     alert("No Border Layer Found");
function checkLayer(parent,layer){
    if ((layer.name).substr(-6) == "Border") {
layer.move(allLayers[0],ElementPlacement.PLACEBEFORE);
        ++count;
function deeper(parent){
var subLayers = parent.layers;
if (subLayers.length > 0){
for (var i = subLayers.length-1; i >= 0; i--){
checkLayer(parent,subLayers[i]);
if (count>0){return}
deeper(subLayers[i]);
} return

How to create PDF from text file with specific layout?

I wanted to create the pdf from text file in specific layout - Landscape orientation and JIS B3 Page size while at Adobe Acrobat Pro.
In past, I could do a right click on a text file (desktop area) and select print to print out the document into .pdf BUT only if I set the Adobe PDF to Landscape and JIS B3 Page size BEFORE. And I could only do 15 text documents at once.
I wanted to see if I could do the create the pdf from text file with specific layout in Adobe Acrobat without having to go to Control Panel to preset the Adobe PDF to specific layout at every time. I would have to set Adobe PDF back to normal layout after I'm done with these pdf print outs. I do lots of pdfs in normal layout. Sometimes I would forget to do that.
So, How do I do that?

No such luck. It would output the contents in letter size even in JIS B3 Page layout at MS word.
Is there a script or action where I could set the orientation and page size before creating PDF on these text files?

How to select all text in document?

I need to select all text in a long document to export to rtf. I only seem to be able to select a story. Any ideas in how I can do it?
Thanks
Ian

Can't be done. You'll have to link all text boxes together in one long story, or use the script "ExportAllStories.jsx" that comes with your default InDesign installation.
There are other alternatives (all of them using scripts), and the best way may depend on what your intentions are with the exported file -- if, for example, you want to read it back into their original text frames after editing, well, there are ways to do that.

Best workflow to select all text in object

I regularly copy text filled objects to reuse them and need to change the text within. Does anyone have a fast way to select all text?
Currently I have to double click the text to get a cursor and then use a control+A to select all text in the box.
I would love to have a single to 2 button press to do this or better yet a fast way to do this with the mouse. Even an contextual right click option would rock!
All ideas appreciated and will be tested.
David

Nice tip! I have also found you can right click to edit text, I wish it would select all when you do that.

Javascript: select all text, break link to style

Hi

How to separate an object with a 3d effect

How to separate an object with a 3d effect
Hi, I have outlined some text and applied a 3d effect but now I want to separate each letter so I can adjust the colour on the face of the letter with the colour on the extruded part.
I am sure it is probably straight forward but could do with a little help!
Thanks

I think what the OP wants to do is to keep the extruded part the same color and change the face of the letters to different colors. And he/she did mention that the text is outlined.
If that's the case, I can think of two things to do if you want to keep the 3D effect live (i.e., unexpanded).
1. You could apply a stroke to the outlined text, in the color you want for the extruded part. Then just change the fills individually (Tip: view in Outline mode and use the Group Selection tool to select each letter).
2. If you don't like how the stroke looks on the letters, make all the letters the same color — the color you want for the extruded part. Then make a copy of this group of letters. Select the copy, then click in the Appearance panel to to edit the 3D effect. Put the Extruded Depth at Zero. Now chnage the colors to your liking, then align them with the original. Interestingly, you can't just use the Align functions, you have to eyeball it.

How to make text/objects move nonlinear speed on AE CC?

Hi,
I was wondering two questions:
1) how to make "text holders" that has small animation. Here is an example from a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oSWt84VoAg (0:41).
2) how to move objects with increasing speed and soft slow down. I know how to change speed, but how to make it so that it is only accelerating and slowing down? Same examle can be found from the clip above with the place holders and texts.
Thank you for your help. If there is same kind of discussion going on please let me know. I could not find it.

All of what you want to do comes down to the fine art of learning how to magle curves in the graph editor, which is nothing you can learn from just watching totorials. You learn it by doing and collecting experience.

Text Object with a Paramter Field in It

think I am losing my mind. I have a text object on my report for the 'From' and 'To' dates on a report. So that the spacing works between the words, I add a text object to my report and type the word "From" (without quotes). Then, I drag the start date into the field next to the word From. Then I type "To" and insert the ending date.
I right justify the contents of the field. I position the object on the right side of the report (not right at the margins about 1/4" in).
Just above this combined field, is a special field with the print date. It is also right justified and the two fields are right aligned.
The problem is when the report prints, the combined field isn't truly right justified. There are what appears to be extra spaces in it. The fields look similar to this...
02/20/2009
Report range 01/01/2008 to 12/31/2009
They should be perfectly aligned based on the CR layout. I have done some testing. If I remove the text and just leave the dates in the text object, I have the same results. It looks like it has something to do with the brackets that get placed around the parameter field when it is placed inside the text object.
Report range {?datdeb} to {?datfin}
Has anyone else run across this? I have noticed this on several of my reports and decided to try and find a solution.
Could it be a variable font issue? The problem goes away if I use Lucida Console (a fixed width font). It is somewhat better but not perfect with Verdana as the font. It is horrible when using Arial. I can't believe this is an issue that others have not run across. I searched the forum with no luck.
Thanks in advance.
Gilley Estes

With the help of one of our programmers, he suggested using a Trim function in case there were extra spaces in the field. So this is what I ended up doing.
Created a formula with the following:
"Report Range " + Trim (totext({?datdeb})) + " to " + Trim (totext({?datfin}))
?datedeb = beginning date parameter
?datefin = ending date parameter
By using the trim function, the extra spaces that were inserted into the field were removed.
Go figure! Oh well... At least there is a solution.
HTH someone in the future...

Select all text boxes (help)

I will try to explain this as best I can, bare with me.
I'm using Acrobat X 10 and I'm trying to print a PDF file that are slides from one of my university classes. The problem I'm having is that some of the text is not printing or printing very lightly. I have solved this problem by going to the tools panel and then edit document text tool. From there I select a text box, select all text in said text box, select properties, click on the text tab and then changing the fill from white to black(following so far?). Now my issue is that there are many text boxes, to the point where only one word occupies a text box. So what I'm wondering is if there is a way to select all the text boxes so I can do this proccess for the whole file rather than selecting each text box and repeating the proccess, as this is very time consuming.
Any help is appreciated.

Why don't you see if your printer driver has an option for printing B&W (not grey or greyscale), that might do the trick.

How to read text file with big5 into db

hi,
how can i use UTL_FILE package to
read a text file with big5 characters and insert into db?
my oracle charset is AL32UTF8.
thx a lot!

Thx for yr answer!!!
I have followed and it works.
However, I got another problem with HKSCS. When the text file contained HKSCS, the store procedure also treats it as Big5 and when I select it out, the character was not the orginal one.
