How to programmatically Save As Plain Text

I want to programmatically get the same output that Adobe gives me when I choose File -> Save As and select Text (Plain) or choose File -> Export -> Text -> Text (Plain).
I have tried other programs but none so far give me the same text as what Adobe gives me. I have tried looking through the SDK and don't see where this can be done. If anyone knows of a program that does this or knows where in the SDK this can be done that would be great.
Thanks

The AVConversion APIs in plug-ins give access to the save as formats
(except PDF).

How do I save changes in text size

How do I save increases in text size. The zoom feature reverts to earlier setting when I change web page. I was not able to change font size using font setting under content tab in tools.

You can use an add-on to set the zoom level for all sites. For example, [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/ NoSquint] and [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/ Default FullZoom Level].

Cannot Save as Plain Text

I am unable to Save As to Plain Text. Need to convert PDF to Plain text. I can Save As Word, but I need to save as plain text.
When it converts and the new text file is opened it is empty.

If you are using Acrobat 10 or 11 Pro try using "Recognize Text" -- on this file.
Maybe the document was scanned. A scanned document does not contain any text, it is just a picture. Recognize text will do Optical Character Recognition (OCR) on the document and then you can save as text. You will have to watch for errors in the OCR. Sometimes it has difficulty discerning the characters.

How do I save image and text as a single image in InDesign CS5.0?

How do I save an image and text as one image in InDesign CS5.0? NOT 5.5.
I need to save the image as a 72-dpi, jpg file for ePub purposes. I designed a book and am handing it off to someone for ePub.
This is what I've tried:
1) Copied from InDesign, pasted into a PhotoShop doc as a Smart Object. Saved it as 72 dpi jpg, then imported back into ID.
2) Took a screenshot of ID page, placed it in PS, saved as 72 dpi, imported into ID
3) Saved page as a PDF from InDesign, then saved PDF as 72 dpi jpg, then imported into ID.
4) Save page as a PDF from InDesign, placed into Photoshop and saved
as 72 dpi, then imported into ID.
5) Saved as an EPS from InDesign, placed in PS, then imported back to ID.
In all cases, the type looks terrible. It doesn't seem to matter whether I copy or place into Photoshop, though placing is slightly better.
HELP!!!

In all cases, the type looks terrible. It doesn't seem to matter whether I copy or place into Photoshop, though placing is slightly better.
Naturally what you did will result in rasterized text. Did you preview with high quality settings?
Are you sure the people who will handle that downstream need pixel images and do you have the exact pixel dimensions needed?
Why did you place the image back in Indesign, by the way?

How do I make multiple plain text links active (clickable) at once?

I'm running Number 3.5.2 and I deal with a lot of documents that have long lists of URLs. Anytime I open a xls or numbers doc that already has the URLs pasted in, they're listed in plain text and not clickable. Is there a way that I can select all of them and make them active links, or at least do it in some reasonably scalable fashion?
I've found how to use the "Add link" or even the "Open URL" options using the right click menu. And I know about changing the character style to "Link" to make it active. But these options are only available if I click and highlight the specific content in a single cell. It doesn't allow me to select multiple cells and make the change.
I've also tried copying the URLs out of Numbers and into another program (text edit, email) but not too long ago it stopped letting me paste back in active links.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi jroos,
The HYPERLINK function in another column.
From the Function Browser:
The HYPERLINK function creates a clickable link that opens a webpage or new email message.
HYPERLINK(url, link-text)
url: A standard universal resource locator. url is a string value that must contain a properly formatted universal resource locator string.
link-text: An optional string value that specifies the text that appears as a clickable link in the cell. If link-text is omitted, url is used as link-text.
Formula in C2 (and Fill Down)
=HYPERLINK(B2)
Then select Column C
Copy
Menu > Edit > Paste Formula Results
Delete Column B

How Do I Save an ASCII Text File?

In the Windoze world, Notepad is a simple editor that saves text strictly in ASCII format. Clean, not embellishments or tags. Sometimes it needs to be that way.
What do I use to save ASCII text on a Mac? Somebody at the Apple store told me the answer is TextEdit, but when I went to save a file just now my choices were rich text (.rtf), HTML, Word format, or XML. No ASCII in the bunch.
So, is there a program on here that does what Notepad does? Is there one out there somewhere...??
--PS

I forgot to mention, that this can also be set in the Preferences of Textedit to be the default setting:
use plain text; add .txt extension when saving.
I think that's all I needed to hear -- I've looked at the preferences for TextEdit and set them the way I think I want them.
Thanks,

How to fix width of plain text content control in Microsoft Word 2010?

I try to make the simplest solution for my custom to modify current Word template without hard code anything except field name.
As you can see above image, normally text field in Word is not fixed width control. So, it may affect document layout. Moreover, I want to add dotted line below all text fields in document template.
Is there any possible solution that end-user can do in normal Microsoft Word 2010 application?
PS. I will fill all controls with data from Microsoft Access.

In PDF file, I can easily create fix-size absolute position field inside document template like the following document. In Microsoft Word, I cannot fix even the size of plain text field.
PS. Nobody use table with fixed cell size as normal form (hard copy). I think Microsoft Word is really bad choice for creating any document template by end-user.
Criticizing Word for not doing the same as some other application is hardly relevant. Have you tried word-processing with Adobe Acrobat?
As for your PS, Word tables are ideal for the kind of thing you describe. Your assertion that 'nobody' does so is plain ignorance - it is a common practice. In my previous employment,
many forms were created using Word tables. Before complaining Word is a 'really bad choice', you should learn how to use it.

How can i save all my text messages from an old iphone to iTunes on a PC?

My apps show up, but I can't get everything tansferred over. I have to save my old text messages for legal reasons as I am going through a divorce.

You should be able to simply back up your iPhone via iTunes and that will automatically save your iPhone text messages to your computer. If for some reason you also want to export them or print them from your PC there a various programs that will let you do that. Here's a MacWorld article with a few tips.

PLEASE: How can I save my iphone texts and "notes" (not "the note") to my computer? I need them for reference and legal purposes. I have yet to find an app for this and iphone doesn't sync either one.

Greetings!
I am brand new to using a Support Community -- I'm more of a in-person show me learner but...huge snowstorm and I don't want to
to make an appointment at a Genius Bar, driving 15 miles, especially since I asked about this once before and no one there was able to
give me an "official" Apple answer . I do hope I am posting my question (and plea) for help properly.
LOL when I had my first lil' Mac Classic, over 20 years ago, my participation in the techno world was soooo much easier, simpler.
My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for
future reference and for legal purposes. I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself.
I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need. It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and
my MacBook Pro.
Also I often use Notes for quick journaling as well as copy and pasting from other apps, usually inspirational, that I know I am going to want
to read again (always with credit noted ) and these too are taking up space. If I could email myself I would but the apps I'm using don't offer that and each day there is a new commentary -- no way to go "back".
I am currently using OS 10.6.8 on my MacBook -- my disc drive doesn't work and upgrading has to be done at the Apple Store so I don't have iCloud yet.
My iphone 4 is running OS 6.0.1 -- no upgrade until I'm at a wifi connection -- most of the time I'm using my personal hotspot.
I'm a very busy self-employed Nana raising grandchildren and a great-grandchild. I don't have a lot of time and certainly not enough for copying and pasting every text as well as note and emailing it to myself. There has got to be a better, easier way, yes?
I'd be most appreciative of any and all assistance here. Oh, someone mentioned to me I ought to get a "stick" for downloading but were talking
in a language I'm still learning.
Thank you!
Melinda

Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

How I can save report (graphics & text) in PDF format in LV6i?

I am new to LabView. I tried to save the report as HTML document, it works well using vi's from report generation pallet. But the problem is HTML stores graphic images and text as multiple files. My requirement is to have one single file (like PDF format) to store the results/report of the process.
Any help in this problem will be greatly appreciated.

You could write a batch file that prints to a PS file using a PS
Printer driver and then runs GhostScript to automate the PS -> PDF
conversion. There is no need to buy a MS or Adobe product.
A big of searchign and you'll probably find some ghostscript addon for
HTLM->PS->PDF conversion

How can I save images and text data to the same file?

I have been looking at ways to do this for a while. My main VI saves the raw data to a text file which the users then import to Excel and plot. I am trying to simplify this process and have been looking at ways to accomplish this task. I want to be able to save the raw data to a file and then save the Labview graph as well. This will eliminate the tedious task of importing the raw data into Excel and plotting it. I can save the raw data to its own file and I can use the Get Image method for the graph and save it to its own file. I am currently using the .png format. Is there a way of saving both to the same file ie, importing the image into Excel or Word etc. Before I go off doing a science project I wanted to see if anyone else had experience completing this task and had any recommendations. Thanks in advance for any help.

well ther are a couple of ways. You could use the standard report generation VI's and make a complete report with the image of the graph embedded into the report with the raw data or you could use activeX and control excel thru LV and put the raw data into excel directly and have excel graph the data without any user interaction. I have posted a slew of VI's on the excel board if you do not have the report generation toolkit. If you could tell me which way you want to go I could possibly send you an example.
For more information and some sample VI's and tool kits, you can go to the excel board

How can I save a file (text).....,

......then edit some text and save file with a new file name. Thus having both versions saved?
I think the question is straight forward to anyone using lion. If not:-
I write a simple text file
This is a simple text file
save and name as text_file_1 to my desktop
I then edit the text
This is a simple text file edited
I now want to save to my desktop as text_file_2
and have both
text_file_1 & text_file_2 saved.
The only solution is to copy paste into a different project, not very practical when im making hundreds of pages.
What is the solution?
Thanks
