How t o automatically create an eBook cover in Photoshop?
I have a website that is focused on Internet marketing strategy and I want to create a product including an eBook cover for a prodject. I have been told there is an automatic program or sequence of commands that can dothis for me. Is this true? if so how do I do it?
Thanks for your help
Many folks design their graphics for book covers using Photoshop. Try to think of Photoshop more as an electronic easel with lots of tools you can use to make your design and view it at different sizes rather than an automatic tool that will somehow magically take you to an end.
Photoshop CAN save images in just about any format.
One thing about eBook cover graphics that I can remember offhand... Make sure your potential readers can clearly read the title on the thumbnail.

How do you automatically create paragraph styles from a document?
Hi,
(posted in general indesign as well - advised to post over here)
I know I've seen this somewhere but can't for the life of me find it...
How can I automatically create paragraph and character styles in an InDesign CC document? I'm sure I saw a script to do this and though I'll download that later...only i can't find it now.
The scenario is that I have a document created by someone else which has lots of paragraph styles, but each one has over-rides on (so they're not really much use). I'm wanting something that will go through the document and create all the different styles that have been used.
Any ideas?
ThanksHi
I was given this tip to try: PerfectPrepText (http://indesignsecrets.com/perfectpreptext-a-smart-way-to-style-local-formatting.php) but couldn't get it to do what i was after unfortunately...however it did point me in the direction of something that does the trick:
PowerStyles (DTP Tools - Power Styles for Adobe InDesign).
Not sure if it's available for CC yet though.
Thanks -
How do I automatically create bookmarks in adobe using the Scanjet pro 3000 s2?

Does the file you are writing have a timestamp in it? If so you could read the timestamp from the last time it was written and see if the day has changed, handling the name of the file appropriately. The easiest way to record the timestamp is probably to write the timestamp as the number of seconds that have elapsed since 12:00 am on Firday January 1st 1904 in UT. The "Get Date/Time in Seconds" function will give you this value.

How are deliveries automatically created from scheduling agreement?
How are deliveries automatically created from the schedule line of the scheduling agreement? Can anybody explain this step by step? Can we use the code VL10BATCH for this purpose? If we can, how is this code used?
Thanks in advance.hi
A customer scheduling agreement is an outline agreement with the customer containing delivery quantities and dates. These are then entered as schedule lines in a delivery schedule. You can either create schedule lines when you create the scheduling agreement or you can create them later.
You fulfill a scheduling agreement by creating the deliveries in the schedule as they become due. You process deliveries for a scheduling agreement in exactly the same way as you process a normal delivery. After you have carried out the delivery, the system updates the Delivered quantity field in the scheduling agreement item with the delivery quantity.
The scheduling agreement is used as a basis for delivering a material. The customer sends in scheduling agreement releases, referred to as delivery schedules, at regular intervals to release a quantity of the material.
Document Types
To configure document types for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Sales Document Header -> Define sales document types in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
The R/3 System contains the following document types for component suppliers:
LZ - Scheduling agreement with delivery schedules (no external agents)
LZM - Scheduling agreement with delivery orders
LK - Scheduling agreement with delivery schedules (external agents)
ED - Delivery by external agent (consignment issue)
EDKO - External agent correction
RZ - Scheduling agreement returns (no external agents)
KAZU - Consignment pick-up for external agents
KRZU - Consignment returns for external agents
Item Categories
To configure item categories for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Sales Document Item -> Define item categories in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
The system determines the following item categories for the related document types in
documents containing materials with item category group NORM:
Item category LZN for scheduling agreement type LZ
Item category LZMA for scheduling agreement type LZM
Item category LKN for scheduling agreement type LK
Item category KEN for document type ED
Item category EDK for positive corrections (or the manual alternative EDK1 for
negative corrections) for document type EDKO
Item category REN for document type RZ
Item category KAN for document type KAZU
Item category KRN for document type KRZU
Schedule Line Categories
To configure schedule line categories for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Schedule lines -> Define or Assign schedule line categories in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
The R/3 System contains the following schedule line categories for component suppliers:
L1, BN, L2, and CN for item category LZN
E4, E0, E5, and BN for item category LKN
L2 for item category LZMA (standard for delivery order processing)
Schedule Line Types
To configure schedule line types for scheduling agreements, choose Sales -> Sales Documents -> Scheduling Agreements with Delivery Schedules -> Define schedule line types in Customizing for Sales and Distribution.
Creating Scheduling Agreements
To create a scheduling agreement with delivery schedules:
1. In the Sales menu http://Ext. choose Scheduling agreement ->Create.
2. Enter scheduling agreement type LK (standard) or LZ (external agents) and the
relevantorganizational data.
3. Choose ENTER.
4. Enter the following data:
Sold-to or ship-to party number
Purchase order or closing number
Material or customer material number
You can use the Description field to identify the scheduling agreement. For
example,
you could enter the model year for a particular production series.
The system allows up to 35 digits for a customer material number.
Rounding quantity
Usage
Choose Goto -> Header -> Sales to enter the usage at header level, or Goto ->
Item-> Sales A to enter it at item level. The system proposes usage S, for series, as default in both cases.
Planning indicator
Choose Goto -> Header ->Sales.
Target quantity
Mark an item and choose Goto -> Item -> Sales A
Partners
For scheduling agreements with external agents , choose Goto -> Header
->Partners to enter the external agent as forwarding agent and special stock partner
on the partner function screen.
5. Create a delivery schedule
Mark an item in the scheduling agreement and choose Goto -> Item -> <Delivery
schedule>. Enter:
A delivery schedule number and date
The cumulative quantity received by the customer
The last delivery confirmed by the customer
A schedule line with date, time, and quantity
To enter additional data in the delivery schedule, choose DlvSch.Hdr (delivery schedule header).
configuration:
img->SD->Sales->sales document->scheduling agreements with delivery schedules->
step1: define schedule line types
schedule line types are not schedule line categories. Schedule line types are used for information purpose only.
stds are 1. fixed date 2. backlog 3. immediate requirement
4. estimate

How can I automatically create the files with serie-name?
Hello, Everyone,
I have a question again.
How can I automatically create the file with a serie-filename?
e.g. I have a program, it will repeat 5 times, and every time it will create a bmp-file, and I want to let this program automatically save these 5 files with a Serie-filename like File001.bmp, File002.bmp, .... File005.bmp.
How can I do it?`
Thanks a lot.
Regarts,
JohnnyHi Deepu,
one more comment
The format code should be "%04d" to get leading zeros and have filenames with same length...

How do you automatically create a page from an entry in another list?
I have a custom list with lots of entries and I would like to set it up so that by adding a new entry to my list a new site page is automatically created for that entry. I thought I could configure this by using lookup columns by adding these colums to the
site pages list which are linked to the columns in my custom list. That way the site pages list will be populated as I add more entries to my custom list. However I tried this and none of my entries from my custom list were displayed.So how would I go about
doing this? It would be great if a new page was automatically created from a template as well.

How can I automatically create calendar events using text from a Pages document?
Hello,
I'm looking for a way that I can automatically have calendar events created, by extracting dates and times from a table within a Pages document I have saved on my Mac.
Currently, I record my working hours/dates on a Pages document in table format, so that I can record and ensure I receive payment for all hours I work.
After finding out which shifts I have for the week, I insert the day, date, start time and end time (for each shift), into a table within a Pages document.
I'm wondering if there is any way - such as through Automator, Apple Scripts, etc. - that I can then have the Calendar app automatically create events from that data - including the date, start and end times for each shift?
Also, if possible, is there a way to set each event to automatically alert me at a chosen time (1 day, 2 days, etc.) beforehand?
Here is an example of the layout of my document table:
Date
Start
Finish

If anyone can help with this question, that would be greatly appreaciated, as then I could have my calendar automatically create and sync my work shifts across to my iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Thanks in advance,
John.I totally agree with you.
Where are the fixes for a long string of bugs, glitches and user issues?
Looking at the list of new "features" for the next OSX, Maverick (what a dumb name!), all I am seeing is Apple ripping off other peoples' ideas, something it swinges others mercilessly for.
There is not one thing in Maverick that I don't already have, only more so, with 3rd party add-ons.
Apple seems bereft of ideas now and I am totally mystified what it is doing with all that money and employees it has accumulated.

Resources for creating an ebook cover?
Greetings,
I'm a writer and I'm going to post some of my stories on Kindle. I need to create some simple ebook covers, but I'm an Illustrator rookie. Can anyone point me in the right direction or know where I can get a template?
Thanks!Perhaps Illustrator would be overkill to create "simple" ebook covers ...
Why not use what you're comfortable with -- what did you use to write your stories? -
In my robotics application I store my data using "Write to Spreadsheet.vi". I would like to append the file each time I run the program on any given day. On a NEW day I would automatically like to create a new file with a smiliar name and append that file for the day on which it is created. It's easy to do using the "Write to Measurement File. vi" but the text file created is vertical rather than horizontal, so I would like to use "Write to Spreadsheet". Any suggestions?
Also how to I include my VI as part of this question for others to see?
Thank you.

How do I automatically create additional chapter menus in Encore
I have built a menu in Photoshop. It has four window frames which will represent the chapters from 1 - 4 and will be motion menus. I have brought it into Encore CS4 and verified that it will work. I am able to select each window which are labeled Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, and Chapter 4. I am also able to link each window to a chapter in my timeline, render it, and each window does show motion video correctly.
What I am now trying to do, is to add additional menus for the remaining chapters of the video. I am unable to figure out how to do this without going back to Photoshop and creating a new menus which show the additional chapters, and then bringing them into encore as additional menus.
From what I have read, it seems that encore is supposed to be able to do that for me automatically. One of the ways I tried was to go to the menu section and try to create a menu index, and when I click on that, I get a window that opens up and a window opens up which says "The chapter index could not be created because the current menu does not contain any chapter buttons." Perhaps I am not understanding that message correctly. When I select the different chapter areas on the menu, a selection window does surround that area. I thought that indicated that this area was a button. Can someone help me understand what I'm doing wrong?Hi Bill,
Thank you. I will use your procedures, however h
ere is the place where I read about the automation I was attempting. Am I reading it wrong about what I can do with this procedure? It appears to allow me to take my original menu and using the steps shown, Encore will create additional menus and links all my additional chapter points.

How can I automatically create a rectangular layer mask from an irregularly shaped selection?
I am trying to automatically crop images. The subject is on a white background and extends from the left edge of the image to the right. The top and bottom of the subject are within the frame. I need to crop a certain distance from the top and bottom of the subject and a predefined width that would be calculated from the height of the subject.
My current idea is to create a duplicate layer and run Threshold on it, which allows me to select the subject clearly. Once I have the subject selected I can use Image -> Crop to create the desired rectangle, but I can't figure out a way to create a mask from the irregularly selected subject. Does anyone know a way to take a selection and convert it to a rectangle? I hope this makes sense, I can try to explain better if not. Thanks.

How to get rid of automatically created server accounts in iCal and Mail?
I have recently setup an OS X 10.6.2 Server for our small office. I got the domain name wrong in the initial install and fixed this by doing a complete clean reinstall of OS X 10.6 server (then upgrade to 10.6.2).
The problem is that one of the OS X 10.6.2 clients had been setup to talk to the server prior to the rebuild. Now on this client, I cannot work out how to get rid of or change the automatically created server accounts in iCal and Mail - everytime you login, these are recreated using the old domain name (and of course don't work).
In Mail if you remove the server account (from Accounts in Preferences), it just pops back again. I even removed every trace of the old domain name from the apple.com.mail.plist file but when I re-open Mail that darned server account (with the old domain name) just pops up again.
In iCal its slightly different in that you can remove the account and it stays away while you have iCal open. But as soon as you close and re-open it, that server account just pops up again!
I thought it might be something to do with Kerberos and found a Kerberos file on the client which had the old domain name throughout it - I changed all these references to the new domain name, but still the same behaviour in Mail and iCal.
This is doing my head in. Any ideas?
