Importing text from word.doc into iweb

This results in a graphic which cannot be updated. iWeb help suggests
Identify items that will be converted to graphics when published:
Choose iWeb > Preferences.
Select “Show text imaging indicator.”
iWeb> Prefs Click on 'Show text imaging indicator' but no change once I have done so. The text still appears as a graphic unable to be ammended.
Any suggestions? Or is this something to do with Lion?

Word is wordprocessor. iWeb is an application to create webpages with.
Copy/pasting formatted text always has unexpected results.
To overcome that, save your Word document as a html file.
Open it in a browser and then copy/paste the text.
iWeb will retain the formatting.
And Lion is an operating system. Just like a Mercedes is a car. Neither has anything to do with your problem.

  • Importing text from word into indesign3

    I am importing text from a word document that has lots of footnotes in it into an indesign3 file  - I need to keep some of the formatting from the word document i.e italics and tabs however I need to be able to edit and reposition the 'word' footnotes within indesign - I don't seem to be able to do this without turning off the footnotes editing completely before importing? Is there a way around this?

  • Import Glossary from Word Doc?

    Hello!
    Is it possible to import the contents of a Word doc into a
    project's glossary, rather than having to create from scratch
    and/or cutting & pasting into the Glossary?
    I saw nothing about this in LiveDocs or the Forum...
    If I have a Word doc, what styles should be applied to the
    term and to the definition?
    Thanks in advance!
    Kathy

    Hi Kathy
    Yes, it's possible. However, keep in mind that the Glossary
    file exists as a simple ASCII text file. Thus, no formatting is
    allowed. I might suggest the following approach:
    Add a single term to the Glossary using RoboHelp. Then sneak
    behind the scenes and open the ProjectName.GLO file with Windows
    Notepad. Note the structure. Now format the text in your Word
    document to follow the example you just looked at. You could then
    select it all, copy and paste into the .GLO file.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Import Text From Form Field into Subject Line of Email

    Hello,
    Is there a way to import text from a form field into the subject line of the email when sending back (attaching) the PDF form?  In other words, there is an "applicant name" and I would like that name to be the subject line of the email.
    I am using Adobe Acrobat X (10.1.7)
    If any one has aby guidance or resources online where I can locate this information I would greatly appreciate it!  I have been searching all day but have not found a solution yet. 
    Thanks!

    Thank you so much for the help.  For some reason I cannot get it to work though.   Now, when I hit the submit button it does not do anything.
    Previously, I had the following code under
    ACTIONS>Mouse Up>Submit a Form
    mailto:[email protected]?subject=Employee Application
    I removed the above mailto URL and put in your code as a Javascript function. I made sure that my field name matched the name in quotes within the code.
    I used the following:
    var subject = getField("lastname").value 
    this.mailDoc({
    bUI: false,
    cTo: "[email protected]",
    cSubject: subject,
    cMsg: "Type message here"
    Do you see anything obvious that I am doing wrong?
    Many thanks!

  • Copy/paste text from Word doc or PDF to Robohelp

    Bolded words, indentions, paragraphs, line spacing, font, and
    text size amongst other things are lost when I do a simple
    copy/paste... Any way to relieve this?
    Thanks

    Hi
    I'd like to answer this in a slightly different way..
    It's a good idea to format anything you paste into RH in RH
    using paragraph styles etc. Hardcoded formatting won't be under
    stylesheet control which is very bad news.
    In fact I generally paste stuff from a word doc into notepad
    first to remove any formatting soI have "clean" text to begin with.
    That way you ensure consistency when styles are updated etc
    as well maintaining consistency with what's already there.

  • Copy text from Word '03 into RH9

    I need to copy text from Word into RH in a way that does not bring in the Word codes.  I can obviously copy the text into notepad and then into RH, but I am wondering if there is a way to do it that would be similar to the "Paste Special / Unformatted Text" command in Word? 
    We cannot have the word codes in RH because we translate our user manuals and then use the translated UM text to gain discounts when we translated the html help files.  These codes throw off the matching and cause us to gain hardly any discounts.  Even simple formatting, like a bolded word puts in the word codes into the html code. I made the mistake of thinking if I unbold the word in RH then everything is fine, but little did I know the Word code was still in the HTML. 
    I appreciate your help.
    Also, I am open to suggestions on a better way to get my Word text into RH to be help.  I've started looking into Importing and Linking, but haven't figured out if they would be all that beneficial to us.

  • Selecting and importing text from Word

    Hi..
    I am interested in importing text from Microsoft Word into labview.
    The text will be identified by a particular 'style'. I have seen examples of reading text marked by 'bookmarks' however this doesn't appear to be sufficient or flexible enough for this application.
    I have tried adapting the 'bookmark' code (using different property/invoke nodes) but can't seem to find something that works in a similar way.
    Just wondering if anyone has already tried something similar.
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Mike
    (Labview 8.2.1 + Report Generation Toolkits)

    Hi Mark,
    The plan was to be able to sift through text in a Word document for blocks of text that match a particular 'style' (determined by us) and import the text into Labview to populate VI descriptions/free labels etc.
    I have adapted some code I have found to be able to cycle through table rows/columns and be able to match text/string patterns, however matching the 'style' property should make this operation a little cleaner or perhaps give us more control over what strings are matched.

  • How to import text from Word and retain italics and/or indented text?

    Is it possible to import or copy text from Word into InDesign and retain italics or text that is indented in the Word version?

    just wanna edit wrote:
    Thank you, I think I understand the idea of "place" (which is what I would call "paste")
    The two are not at all the same. Paste involves copying text to the clipboard and then pasting from the clipboard. Place is an import operation.

  • How can I import text from Word including paragraph indents?

    I'm using Captivate 7.
    I need to import text from a series of documents written in Microsoft Word.
    When I copy and paste most of the formatting is retained. Bold, italics and underline import perfectly but I lose the indented paragraphs. They all become left aligned.
    Is there a way to import the indented first lines in the paragraphs?
    Thanks in advance.

    Lilybiri, sorry it took me so long to get back to you. Life sometimes interferes with living.
    Thanks for sharing your opinions. Your deep and penetrating insights have changed my life forever. As in: "...that people expect ..." Gee; I've pondered that for years. Now that you've opened my eyes to "what people expect" I can let that go and concentrate on something else. Like, is cheese REALLY binding?
    With your helpful and concerned attitude I'm sure you'll be glad to know that my problem has been solved. Not by anything from Adobe; the company or the forum, but by simply finding another program that works as it should.
    By the way, I marked my own answer correct as it was clear that there is no answer and I just wanted to close the thread. Actually, after I reread what I said,  I realized my answer IS correct. So, I'll stand by it.
    Thanks again, it's been interesting.
    So long Lilybiri, and good-bye Adobe Captivate.

  • Importing tables from Word 2003 into Robohelp for word ^

    Does anyone know how to import tables and boxex from Word
    2003 nicely into Robohelp 6

    You can capture the table from your original word.doc and
    save the image as either a bmp or gif file. In robohelp, insert the
    picture where you want it to be located at. Have the table act as
    an image.

  • Importing text from Word in Mac

    Hello,
    Any suggestions for speedy efficient way to import text to
    Mac Version of DW? I notice that the 'import Word Doc' option is
    only available for Windows users.
    Thank you,
    Julie

    In CS 3 you can Command C and paste from TextEdit en Word but
    not the from the last version of Word. So I use Textedit a lot.
    Just paste on the right place in Design View. It strips
    automatically most formatting like bold and italic.
    I suppose it will be the same in CS4.

  • Importing text from Word to ID

    Hello. Which are the best way to import text files? I mean, step by step, from Microsoft Word to ID? It is a headache when you apply an style and booom all the italics and bolds dissapear... Sometimes it works fine when i apply a style, but sometimes it does a disaster. From now, I am really curious about how indesign thinks to resolve the import cases and the work of styles.
    1) Why sometimes erase all the word local formats and sometimes does not?
    2) Is it a problem using .doc, .docx or .rtf to save text files an import?
    3) Is the problem that you work with .TTF fonts (like Arial, Times, Courier) from word and on ID you use OpenType Fonts?
    4) What is the NON-FAIL way to do an excellent import? from Microsoft Word to ID
    Thanks
    Alejandro

    1) Why sometimes erase all the word local formats and sometimes does not?
    When placing, you can select to either preserve 'local' formatting or remove it. Local formatting is "anything done without using a style", just as it is in InDesign. As Ellis says, check your import settings.
    In addition, even if you 'preserve' local formatting, it's very easy to accidentally remove it in InDesign when you apply another style. If common attributes such as bold and italics are not applied through character styles in the original Word document, you should preserve them yourself by doing that in InDesign.
    2) Is it a problem using .doc, .docx or .rtf to save text files an import?
    Yes, on all three. There is no single format that InDesign works best with. If a Word document causes me trouble, I try the other options until I get not exactly the "best" result, but more accurately a "least bad".
    3) Is the problem that you work with .TTF fonts (like Arial, Times, Courier) from word and on ID you use OpenType Fonts?
    Not in the least. Actually, you can use TTF fonts as well as OTF fonts with InDesign. The import is totally indifferent of the fonts used -- it doesn't matter what you used in Word, you'll get the same fonts in the imported text. That is, except when it's bitmap fonts, which you cannot use in InDesign, or when the author italicized or bolded text in Word where the actual Bold or Italic font doesn't exist. But even then, InDesign will happily import the text -- it will just have an 'unavailable' font assigned to it, and you'll be notified of that.
    4) What is the NON-FAIL way to do an excellent import? from Microsoft Word to ID
    I would like to know the answer to that as well. The import filter has problems with tables, footnotes, endnotes, automatic references, and new page codes, for .docx, .rtf, and .doc files.

  • Import bookmarks from word 2003 into PDF

    Hello guys,
    my english is not the best but i will try my best :-)
    My enviroment:
    Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 with XenApp 6, Office 2003 SP3 and Adobe Acrobat 9.
    My problem:
    I installed Adobe Acrobat 9 without Adobe Tabs / PlugIns for Office.
    One user write a document in Word 2003 with many bookmarks. He try to convert the document into a PDF. But after converting the bookmarks are not included in the PDF.
    He try to convert the document over the PDF printer and in Acrobat over create -> pfd from file. Both ways are not working.
    So now my question: Is there any way to convert a doc into a PDF without using the Adobe Tabs / PlugIn for Office?
    Thanks a lot.

    - Open Word 2003, you should see a "Adobe PDF" or "Acrobat" menu item.
    - Select the option to change preferences
    - Select the Bookmarks tab
    - Select the option to convert Word Bookmarks

  • Is it possible to import fast a word.doc into Indesign

    Hallo,
    I am producing department documents. Now I have some problems because I created them in word from microsoft.
    Is it possible to import the word documents into the indesign format in an easy way?
    It should be time safing and effective.
    I would be glad for some answers!
    best wishes

    The way you move word dodument s into InDesign is by using File > Place..., selecting the word file in the dialog, chooing import options if you like, and clicking the cursor in the InDesign document. How you've set upt he ID file will have a lot to so with wher you should click and whether or not you should be also pressing the Shift key to autoflow.
    It's quite clear you have no idea how InDesign works, so before you get into trouble you should look around for some books or tutorials, and try reading the help files. One of the best books out there for new users is Sandee Cohen's Visual QuickStart Guide to InDesign.
