How to Break apart a text?

I am a Corel user and I am trying to learn Illustrator as well. I am trying to find a way to Break Apart( this is the term Corel uses) a text without converting them to outline.
example: I have list of names and I am trying to stretch or skew some of them but because I typed each name underneath each other and used Enter to get to the second line ,Illustrator understands them as one object. How can I break them apart so each word will be by itself?
I hope this make sense.
Thanks
Alex

For eg: This is one text frame
Go to Object>>Flattern Transparency (DO NOT Convert All Text to Outlines).
It will return all text in different frames :
Then Object >> Clipping mask >> Release followed by Select >> Object >> Text Objects and CTRL+X - Cut
So it will leave behind all clipping boxes, Select and delete all boxes.
CTRL+V (paste) all text frames from Clipboard.
Hope this helps!

In PS CS6, Is there a way to break apart Handwritten text (not text recognition, just graphically)

I have a scanned document that I want to eventually bring into After Effects to animate each handwritten letter so that it will form into an image... and because this is based on an artist's work, it needs to stay in her handwriting...
So I want to prep it in Photoshop CS6 ... is there a way to do this easily...
Thanks for any help in advance!!

Now, I have not used actual handwriting, but the concept is the same with a "handwriting font," as with the actual handwriting.
I use a series of Layer Comps in Photoshop, and Import those into Premiere Pro (will be essentially the same for AE). I start with the completed graphic, and then add a Layer Mask that covers everything up. Usually, I will just "paint in" this Layer Mask, so that I can get a rough idea of layout of the text. [If you scan is picking up background, such as the paper, things get a bit more tricky.]
Then, I hit the X button, to switch my colors for "painting out" that mask, starting with the first stroke, and working up to having no mask holding back, or hiding the text. Where strokes cross over each other, you have to give consideration for how that handwriting would appear, if one had shot a video of it, and at the cross-overs, the removal of the mask will be more complex, so as to not reveal any of the next stroke too soon. It can be a bit tedious, but can produce a good result.
As I complete the revealing of the stroke, or the part that I want (sort of depends on the pacing), I Save a Layer Comp, incrementing the name, which will be a numerical name, such as 00001.PSD, 00002.PSD, and so on.
I Import those into Premiere Pro (usually at a Duration of 3 - 5 Frames), and add a very short Cross-Dissolve Transition between each.
Good luck,
Hunt

How can I break apart an iStockphoto PNG file? - Newbie Here

I've purchased some icon sets from iStockphoto.
Each set consists of an EPS file containing all 16 icons in a range of colours.
There are also 7 files in PNG format which contain each icon in a specific colour.
I have no problem accessing each individual icon in the EPS file but I can't work out how to 'break apart' any of the PNG files in Adobe Illustrator CS5.1 so that I can get to the individual icons.
Can someone help me with this?
Thank you.

If you have the vector versions, you migt be just as quick re-coloring them yourself using the recolor artwork tool...

How can I keep acrobat from breaking apart text boxes?

I have a multipage graphic document that I am addiing text to in several stages. I just selected Add Text and entered my content into one "box" for each section I need to add but when I re-open the document the next day to continue my work, Acrobat breaks my single text box of content into multiple smaller boxes making my new edits a complete pain. Is there any way to keep this from happening? I'm running Acrobat XI Pro 11.0.06

I've been giving this some thought.
Generally, the idea of sharing design between two people by having one of them use Acrobat is a complete non-starter. And I would say use InDesign. But it does have a steep learning curve. Nevertheless, it would be the most viable way to collaborate on this project, and the most editable/maintainable for you, especially if the maps were not changing but the contact details were.
But let's look at some other alternatives. Not converting to anything else. Not graphics. Not Word. All terrible, they will leave the thing awful, or enormous, quite probably both.
If you are stuck with Acrobat I recommend a defensive approach.
1. Always keep the un-marked original.
2. Add your text.
3. If you need to edit the text, start by deleting it all.
4. If the text boxes get mixed up with the underlying graphic, give up on the page and use Replace Pages from that un-marked original; add a new caption.

How to put line break in the text

Hi guys,
This is a simple problem.i don't know how to concat a line break while creating a text.
I am looping through the results of a query and want to form the text using the results.
For each row of the resultset,I want to create a new line in the text i create.
I was wondering how to put a new line in the text.
I thought I can concat '\n' ,but it does not work.
the code snippet in the procedure is :
for c1_rec in c1 loop
vMsg := ' There are ' || c1_rec.total ||
     ' documents of type ' || c1_rec.doc_type || '\n' ;
end loop;
Please give the solution.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you Mark.
I tried your suggestion.But line break is not working in email.
Here is how my code is
in procedure 1 ,i create the message String as :
for c1_rec in c1 loop
vMsg := vMsg || ' ' || today_str || ' - ' || c1_rec.total ||
     ' Total inbound documents from : ' || c1_rec.target_value || CHR(13)||CHR10) ;
dbms_output.put_line(' ' || vMsg);
end loop;
--here sending mail calling another procedure
sendmail( '[email protected]' ,'[email protected]' , 'Test Subject ' , vMsg );
In Procedure 2( i.e sendmail procedure )
i am preparing email server connection from and to adresses .Then i am preparing and sending message as
crlf VARCHAR2( 2 ):= CHR( 13 ) || CHR( 10 );
conn:= utl_smtp.open_connection( EmailServer, Port );
     utl_smtp.helo( conn, EmailServer );
     utl_smtp.mail( conn, SENDER);
     utl_smtp.rcpt( conn, RECEIVER )
mesg:= 'Subject: ' || SUBJECT || crlf ||
               'Date: '||TO_CHAR( SYSDATE, 'Dy, dd Mon yyyy hh24:mi:ss' )||
               crlf ||
               'From:'||SENDER|| crlf ||
               'To: '||RECEIVER || crlf ||
               'Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1' || crlf ||
               '' || crlf || MESSAGE ;
     utl_smtp.data( conn, mesg );
     utl_smtp.quit( conn );
even now the mail we are getting is not having the line break.I am having line break in dbms output,but not in the mail.
Is there any mistake how I am sending the mail.Or is there any other way we can put line break in the text
Thank you.

How to break mult-line memo(blob) field to single line text fields

CRXI MSSQL
I have a Memo field with variable numbers of lines. How can I recognize end-of-line & break into seperate text field for each line?

Hi James,
I'd recommend breaking it up in the database instead. Create one field for each line, set each line to 30 characters and truncate after that. Now you can have each line as a field in Crystal. Drop them on and suppress them if they are empty.
Not pretty but it will work.
Good luck,
Brian

Break apart a small amount of text, or embed font?

Hi
I have a small amount of text (20 words) that use a hand written type font.
This is for a mobile app, so should I embed the font, or break apart twice to convert it to shapes?
Cheers

If it is not dynamic text, use static textfields and you should not have to worry about embedding... "should" being a significant word. If you find that it is not displaying properly as static text then I'd go with the conversion to shapes just to put it to bed.

Breaking Apart Text

When the SWF file is produced, does it embed regular text or
does it need to be broken apart?
So if I have a special font and I produce the swf, will
others without that font be able to see it or do I have to break
apart that font

The SWF includes the font outlines so the text will display
on every computer
w/o problem, even if it does not have this particular font.
This however apply only to static text. Dynamic text will
require you to include
the font outline manually, under the text field properties
setting.

How do I get the text to flow throughout more then one page.

Hello,
I am currently using LiveCycke Designer to create a scholarship for my company. I created fields for the form and I would like to insert a text to describe the scholarship. When I insert the text, it doesn't flow onto the next page. I've tried creating a subform and clicking "flowed" and "allow page breaks within content". I also clicked auto-fit for the height, but it just makes a line. For the text box, I've clicked "Expand to fit on the height". It is also a dynamic XML Form. Is there anything else I should be doing?
I could always send the file to someone to see if they can figure it out.
Thank you,
Natalie

Thank you so much !

Subject: How do I get the text to flow throughout more then one page.
Here is the corrected form..Even you you set the Subform type to "Flowed" to the subform where the Text box resides, you did not set the Page1 to Flowed (which is the key)..But when I make the Page1 type to "Flowed", all your fields above the Scholrship text boxes' Subform will go one below another.. To fix this, first I have select all the fields and wrap them into a subform and then set the Page1 to Flowed..

How to set the default text in an input box or a label to be a predefine, multiline text

how to set the default text in an input box or a label to be a predefine, multiline text. In other words how to break the line in the code of a text box.
thank you

There are a couple of ways of doing this:
If you're editing on the canvas, press Shift + Enter.
If you're working in Express View (see lower right hand corner of Project Siena), you'll need to copy a hard return from another app such as Notepad.
I believe a better implementation of hard returns are in the list of requested functionality that you can find here:

Using nested styles to break blocks of text into different pages

Hello everyone,
I'm treating data collected through a Google Docs form and I've already set it up so that the questions appear on the left and are followed by the respective answers sequentially so that I have a simple way to copy paste the whole information to Indesign. Then I'm going to use nested styles to define individual styles for the questions and answers.
What I can't do, however... and I'm not even sure if it's possible, is how to tell Indesign to break text that is laid out sequentially into different lines or to break blocks of text so that they start in the beggining of the next page without having to resize the text frames by hand.
As a visual example this is what the data I've exported out of excel looks like:
Question 1 (tab) Answer A1 (line break)
Question 2 (tab) Answer A2 (line break)
Question 3 (tab) Answer A3 (line break)
Question 1 (tab) Answer B1 (line break)
Question 2 (tab) Answer B2 (line break)
Question 3 (tab) Answer B3 (line break)
(and so on in groups of 3 questions)
And I want to turn it into:
Question 1 (turn the tabs into line breaks)
Answer A1
Question 2
Answer A2
Question 3
Answer A3
(and then start at the beggining of a new page)
Question 1
Answer B1
Question 2
Answer B2
Question 3
Answer B3
I can't define the size of the text frames so that the next group of questions+answers starts at the beggining of a new page because some of the answers are multi-line fields and thus the number of lines of the answers are variable and they can come short of the text frame edge or pass it.
Can anyone share some insight of how to do this (or if it is at all possible)?
Thank you very much!

Thank you very much for your input.
I'm trying to automate this process as much as possible because I don't want to have to crunch the data manually myself later on, instead just teach someone else how to do it.
The first search and replace action seems basic enough but regarding the second one I would have to manually assign that paragraph style to the line where the data would break because one can only assign character styles in nested styles, right?
Also I've heard that ID CS5 automatically creates new pages based on a template when you paste information inside the first page, is that so? That would be great because that way the person wouldn't have to manually create pages and link the contents throughout the document but instead simply open my template and paste the information within the first master page. That's not possible with CS4, is it?
Thank you very much!

Paste your content into TextEdit. Format > Make Plain Text.
Comand-S to save.
Command-Click the filename at the top of the TextEdit window. Click on the second line, the name of the folder where you saved the document.
Select the extension of the document Name in the finder window that is being displayed and replace TXT with CSV.
Right-Click the csv file and choose Open With > Numbers.

How do you un-highlight text highlighted in error in Reader?

How do you un-highlight text highlighted in error in Reader?
Also How can you change the color of the highlighting?

Yes i saw, but what i don't understand is that i don't see "Allow Page Breaks within Content" on my textfields :
Maybe i am using an older version of livecycle.
In an other order of idea, have you checked if the page was set to allow page breaks?
