I'm trying to make a swatch book for our printery

hi all,
is it possible in Indesign to adjust the yellow value (or cyan, magenta and blacks) of lots of colours by increments of 5% at once?
any suggestions on this matter is very welcome!
greetings from Belgium,
Tim

Apologies my computer went mental!
Ah ok.
Here's a cool trick for you.
Build a table that's 5x5
Insert text that represents the percentage of the fill you require - set the text colour to None (so it doesn't show in the table)
There's a "table heat map" script - that will give the cell the percentage fill related to the text that's in the cell.
cs5 - Script to create heat map in InDesign 5.0 PC? - Graphic Design Stack Exchange
Copy the text in the first link and paste to notepad (or equivalent (not MS Word) a plain text editor).
And save it as "TableHeatMap.jsx"

  • I am trying to make a iphoto book but every time i click on a single photo or folder it opens up a new book. How can I avoid this? This is iphoto 10.

    I am trying to make a iphoto book but every time i click on an individual photo (or folder) it opens up a new book. How can i avoid this?

    Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar.  Select Size = Medium or Large.
    Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com.  Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago. 
    Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
    If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides  themes from iDVD 5-7.  The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them. 
    Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
    This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
    You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
    NOTE:  If you're running iPhoto 9.5 the export options will be different.

  • Trying to make a higscore chart for applet

    hey im trying to make an highscore applet for a mathquiz applet and i need it to save the users score possibly as a cookie ryte now i am using:
    PrintWriter out
    = new PrintWriter (new BufferedWriter (new FileWriter ("file.txt")));
    But this only works on the HSA console, Also if anyone knows how to make an exit button exit the internet explorer that would help to. Thanks alot

    Sorry Sabre. Just trying to be a little realistic is
    all.I fealt you were a little too dogmatic and negative about the problems the OP might encounter.
    >
    Setting aside the server-side (servlet) problems,
    here are two questions I have about saving the high
    scores as a cookie
    1. (How) are you going to save the cookie? Normally,
    web browsers receive cookie updates and store them
    automatically. But since you'll be connecting through
    java, that won't happen. If that doesn't happen, how
    does the client know (aside from kludging the applet)
    what cookie to send along with its request?This link shows exactly how to do it (without the need for WebServer involvement).
    http://www.wildtangent.com/developer/howtos/JSCookiesHowTo/
    >
    2. A year or so ago I spent a good deal of time
    trying to fix up URLs and URLConnections so that I
    could save and return cookies, since this is not
    default functionality. I found that it was EXTREMELY
    difficult to both extract the cookie and to add it to
    the request. Perhaps you or others have had better
    luck with this.
    Right. Applets don't commonly allow you accessto
    the
    local file system. You can either report thescores
    to the server (assuming you can put a servletthere)
    or you can sign your jar file.
    You're never going to get this to work either.Why won't the OP get this to work either? One can
    easily self sign an Applet jar file and then allthe
    user has to do is to agree to allow the Applet to
    write the file!Again, sorry. My thought was that the work involved
    in learning and implementing either the servlet or
    local file system solution is going to take at least
    as much time as everything else combined. It is true
    that my experience with jarsigner and self-created
    certicates is limited, but the times I have gone
    through the process, it's just taken me forever.When the signing process is understood this is easy - even doing it manually. If one understand how to use Apache Ant then this is trivial to automate. If you would like to see a sample Ant script then I will post one (actually I use two scripts).

  • I'm trying to make a "Submit" button for my existing UIPickerView. Help!

    Hi there! I’ve been tearing my hair out and searching the web high and low for an answer to a question I have about UIPickerView. I was hoping that perhaps you could help me out!
    I’m trying to make a “Submit” button for my existing UIPickerView.
    I’ve coded a 3 column UIPickerView into my app, and it works great. However I’d like to add a “Submit” button and connect it to my pickerview, so that once a user makes their selections and clicks “Submit,” the app searches an existing array for the user’s selected values.
    Any help would be appreciated! I hope I explained that okay, lol.
    Thanks,

  • I'm trying to make a ring to for iPhone and about 20 sec into the playing of the song it fades out and goes silent. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

    I'm trying to make a ring to for iPhone and about 20 sec into the playing of the song it fades out and goes silent. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

    Im not sure what garage band is, but i can tell you the way apple recommends making ringtones. Highlight a song in iTunes, right click and select get info. Goto the options tab and youll see the time lengths (write down the ending time) for the start time type in where you want the ringtone to start, ringtones can only be 30 sec long so make the ending time 30 sec later. Exit it out of the info and while song highlighted goto the "advanced" tab at the top of iTunes where you will see an option that says "create aac version". after creating the aac version you will have a duplicate song in your iTunes, change the original back to the correct time length. Take the 30 sec aac version and drag it to your desktop, right click the icon and click "preferences" You will then be able to change the name of the file which will be somethign to the effect of "songnamehere.m4a" you just change the m4a to m4r. you now have a ringtone, drag the new file to iTunes where it will pop up in a new tab labled ringtones. If you cannot change the name of the file when it is on your desktop let me know and i will give you instuctions how to be able to change it. Once you get it figured out you can use any song you have on iTunes to make a ringtone.

  • I am trying to free my mac book for space. everytime i try to empty the deleted items in trash, it starts and stop without clearing the items. how do i empty the trash

    I am trying to free my Mac book for space in oredr to upgrade. Everytime i try to empty the deleted items in the trash, it starts and stops immediately without clearing the items. How do i achieve this?

    I had the same problem yesterday with an application file that was deleted after installation of an update. I used "Put Back" to move it back to its original location, then used "Show Package Contents" to delete/empty trash for small groups of files at a time. I suppose the application file itself may have been too large to empty at one time. I hope this helps.

  • I am trying connect to a SQL instance for our CRM program and I am receiving To Connect to this Server you must use SQL Management Studio or SQL Server Management

    I am trying connect to a SQL instance for our CRM program and I am receiving To Connect to this Server you must use SQL Management Studio or SQL Server Management 
    This is a Brand new Server 2012 that is running our CRM product and it is trying to connect to a Server 2008 R2 server with SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 instance (10.50.4000)
    I have seen this in the past where it needed the 2005 backwards compatibility components installed but those are not supported on 2012 server and this is not a 2005 SQL instance.
    I am trying to install the Shared Management Objects for SQL Server 2008 but it tells me I need to install the CLR types, which I did install. But it continues to tell me to install the CLR types.
    Has anyone ran into any issues like this? (this happens trying to connect to multiple SQL Servers from this new 2012 Server)
    Thanks!
    -Max

    Hello,
    Which version and edition of the SQL Server instance did you installed on the new server machine?  If you install SQL Server 2012 Express edition, you can try to install SQL Server Management Studio 2012 from
    this link.
    You can connect to SQL Server 2008 R2 or earily verions with SSMS 2012.
    What's more, Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Management Objects Collection requires Microsoft Core XML Services (MSXML) 6.0, Microsoft SQL Server Native Client, and Microsoft SQL Server System CLR Types. You can try to download and install
    SQL Serve 2008 Feature Pack
    which contains packages above.

    I get this pop up when trying to create a photo book through the iPhoto store.  
    "Some or all of the photos you selected were downloaded from your published albums. You can only view these photos. To use them in an album or a slideshow or project, you must import them to your photo library."
    The photos I have selected have already been imported so how and why do I do it all over again?
    What do they mean by published albums?  I categorize them into photo albums for organizational purposes after I import them from my camera or phone. So why can't I put them into a book now?
    I have over 400 photos selected for a photo book for my child's graduation gift so how can I tell which photos I have to do this to?
    Please help. Any insight wouyld be appreciated.
    Confused and frustrated...

    Give this a try:  apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.

  • Help trying to make DVD Mac book struggeling

    Hello
    I am trying to make a DVD the Application is chugging and slow. I recently upgraded my RAM
    My mac is struggeling here, Can anyone suggest something
    thanks very much
    Troy

    The only thing I can think of is I have a number of items on my desk
    top. but that is just a guess
    Probably a good one:
    Mac OS X's Desktop is the de facto location for downloaded files, and for many users, in-progress works that will either be organized later or deleted altogether. The desktop can also be gluttonous, however, becoming a catch-all for files that linger indefinitely.
    Unfortunately - aside from the effect of disarray it creates - keeping dozens or hundreds of files on the Desktop can significantly degrade performance. Not necessarily because the system is sluggish with regard to rendering the icons on the desktop and storing them in memory persistently (which may be true in some cases), but more likely because keeping an excessive number of items on the Desktop can cause the windowserver process to generate reams of logfiles, which obviously draws resources away from other system tasks. Each of your icons on your desktop is stored as a window in the window server, not as an alias. The more you have stored, the more strain it puts on the window server. Check your desktop for unnecessary icons and clear them out.
    Keeping as few items as possible on the Desktop can prove a surprisingly effective performance boon. Even creating a single folder on your Desktop and placing all current and future clutter inside, then logging out and back in can provide an immediately noticeable speed boost, particularly for the Finder.
    And it is why Apple invented 'Stacks' for Leopard.
    Here is Apple's take on the subject:

  • I am trying to make a photo book thats i can put text over a picture

    I am trying to create a photo book that allows me to put text over a photo.
    The only book that kinda allows for this is the photo essay book but the text box is really small and cannot be adjusted.
    The older version of iphoto allowed you to plave a pictures behind a text page and fade the picture into the background.
    Can anyone help???
    do i need to revert to the old iphoto or is there a way to have a picture in the background with a bigger text box on one of teh photo books now avalaible?

    You can still have a photo for a text page background.  Go to the layout pane for the text page and click on the photo background icon:
    Then drag the photo you want as the background into the page.

    depends on how old your Mac is ...
    newer machines do not come along with a pre-installed  iDVD (.. and iWeb ..) anymore; you have to purchase a boxed version of iLife11.
    if somehow iDVD is installed on your Mac, you should find it in your Apps-folder
    (or use Spotlight, search for iDVD) ...-

        this["M2"+i].addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clicking);
    function clicking(event:MouseEvent):void{
    trace("I am clicking button" && event.target.name);
    Be aware, that you have to work with the positioning, and that the TextFields are overlapping the takkis, so that the clicking is only possible in a minor fraction of the takkis.

There is nothing wrong at all with our internet connection, and I have been through all the suggestions on the Apple help page, and spent 2 hours on the phone this morning getting passed round various call centres.

    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
    then boot into safe mode and try again

    You need to select some text or an object in order to make the enable hyperlink to become available.
    You can create a hyperlink to your payment page by adding some text (something like "Click here to order" or whatever), selecting the text and go to the link pane and select the Link to External page. Then put http://www.LASTARBABIES.com/payment into the URL window. Then you can format the link color and rollover color in the Format section of the link pane.
    The resulting link would look something like this: Click here to order". You can set the page to open in a new window or not.
