InDesign CC is bringing in style sheets from Word and other places that I copy type from, like email, Acrobat. In InDesign CS4, whenever I brought in text from outside it assumed the paragraph style applied to the waiting text box. The loss of this functi

I used to be able to get text from a Word doc (copy it), and then go into my CS4 InDesign file and paste it into a waiting box that had a paragraph style assigned to it and boom, it would take on the assigned paragraph style of that text box. Now it brings in the style from wherever the text came from. If the font looks similar to what was there it can be too hard to tell that it's different. When you are working on a book with 200 pages and copying text from Word docs and dropping it in here and there in InDesign, it causes alot of extra work and problems.
In fact I have lost alot of security functions I used to have in CS4 in CC2014 in InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator and Acrobat and it is making me want to go back to CS4 in a hurry.

I actually FINALLY found the answer!!!! In the preferences area you choose Clipboard Handling and then you choose "Text Only" under When Pasting Text and Tables from Other Applications (see photo).

  • TS1398 i have a iPhone 4. I am trying to connect to the Wifi at my house, and other places that have free WiFi. I can not get the phone to access any networks in order to connect. Could someone please help me try to figure this out.

    I just recently purchased a iPhone 4. I am using it as Prepaid for Verizon. I only get a certain amount of data time, and was trying to use the wifi at my house in order to do somethings online without using my prepaid data, but for some reason it will not pick up the wifi at all, and when i try all the different things I have been told to try it still does not work, how do I get the wifi to work?

    You didn't say what you have already tried, but if you haven't already done so, power-cycle your router (unplug it for 15 seconds then plug it back in), then on your phone go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Reset Network Settings, then try joining your wifi again.

    Hi Denise, we need more information on what you are trying to do before we can help on your specific issue.
    You can look at this document, which covers nested styles: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/indesign/cs/using/WSE33E49F9-94CE-4043-AA51-4761408A63F4a.html

  • How to change the paragraph style of every paragraph that only contains an anchored object?

    Hi,
    I have a document in word that needs to be converted into indesign. The document containts instructions, each step followed by an image.
    I've managed to import the document into Indesign, and applied a paragraph style with numbering to everything (text an image).
    Now, how to change the the paragraph style of every paragraph that only contains a image? I need to get rid of the numbering.
    Thanks in advance.

    Create two Paragraph Styles and name them Image and Non-Image. Apply the paragraph styles manually to the text containing image and not containing images.

  • Where are the paragraph style tools in Indesign CC2014?

    Hi! I've just started using Id through Creative Cloud on a new computer (have been using CC CS6 for two years), and the installer gave me CC2014 rather than CS6. So this is a question only about CC2014.
    Where has the paragraph styles window gone? Specifically, how can I edit, create and organise paragraph styles, and how can I get a window up on the main screen with all the styles laid out? All these things were easy to find in CS6, but I can't track them down in CC2014. The only thing I get (and that with a bit of customization). is a drop-down menu in the main toolbar, which allows me to choose from existing options on an existing document.
    There is no Paragraph Styles option under Windows>Styles.
    There is no Paragraph Styles option under Type.
    The only Paragraph window which appears is designed for editing text as you go along, not for applying styles.
    The Help options all point me back to the entry for CS6, and tell me to go to Type>Paragraph Styles (which doesn't exist).
    I can't get a window up on the main screen to apply styles instantly from a list. I only get that dropdown menu, which has no further options.
    Can anyone either point me to some up-to-date guidelines or explain where all the paragraph options have gone and how I can use them? Alternatively, can I revert to CS6? This was easy and intuitive before, and now it's neither...
    Thanks!

    Yes, that did it. All the old menu options have reappeared. I don't know why they were hidden in the first place - these were things I never needed to set up on either of my previous computers.
    Thank you very much!

  • InDesign CS6: How do I set Character Color to Unspecified/Undefined in the Paragraph Style Options?

    Is there a way to create a Paragraph Style that leaves the Character Color unspecified?  I have a bunch of existing text frames containing characters of various colors. When I apply the Paragraph Style, the text is changed to black. I want the text color to remain unchanged; that is, I want the Paragraph Style's Character Color attribute undefined.  How do I do this?
    All of the text frames in this case have their Character Style set to [None]. The text colors were applied individually, not via the use of Character Styles.

    If you apply the color to the characters via Character styles then the colors will be unchanged when the Paragraph style is applied. Like this:

  • Two more options in the paragraph styles panel

    I would like two options in the paragraph styles panel.
    1.
    The posibility to set the 'Sort by name' option as a default or persistent
    2.
    The ability to label the styles with colors

    Let me second the motion for a persistent "Sort by name" option for the Paragraph Styles panel.
    In addition, somebody at Abobe "improved" the Paragraph style "Basic Character Formats" menu for CS6 by sabotaging the natural progression of tabbing directly from setting the *Font Size* to setting the *Leading* amount. Why would anyone at Adobe think that going from *font size* to *kerning* is an improvement for design professionals?

  • I want to bring in text from Word (and the web) that is already hyperlinked into InDesign. How do I do it while keeping the links active?

    I want to bring in text from Word (and the web) that is already hyperlinked into InDesign. How do I do it while keeping the links active?
    Whenever I copy/paste from web or Word it removes the hyperlinks.  And when I try to do it by "Place"ing a Word document into my InDesign project it keeps the formatting with it, the rectangles around the text.
    I have the latest version of InDesign.
    Any help is appreciated. 

    Copy-and-paste may not include formatting. A regular import using Place is the best way.
    The rectangles around the hyperlinks are just to indicate they are links -- they do not print, but they do show up in your PDF.
    You can remove them by double-clicking the hyperlink in the Hyperlinks panel and select "Invisible Rectangle" as type.
    Typically, Word hyperlinks are formatted -- blue text, underline -- with a Character Style. If you want to remove or change the formatting, all you have to do is change the character style. My experience, though, is you must check all hyperlinks because for no apparent reason sometimes they appear in the document without the character style.

  • I just recently upgraded from a 4S to a 5C.  I backloaded the 5 from Itunes and now everytime i plug into itunes, it asks if I want to set up as new or restore from a previous backup.  Why is it doing this.  I did it twice yesterday.....

    I just recently upgraded from a 4S to a 5C.  I backloaded the 5 from Itunes and now everytime i plug into itunes, it asks if I want to set up as new or restore from a previous backup.  Why is it doing this.  I did it twice yesterday.....  In addtion, those are the only options I have.  I cannot do anything else unless I choose one of the two.  Zero options.  Phone works fine though.

    I figure that either of those options will result in losing all SMS and data created since the last backup. Not a major loss, but ** annoying when nothing has changed and the time it will take to restore.
    When was the last time you synced your iPhone with iTunes since the backup is updated as the first step during the sync process?
    Is there anyway to recover this WITHOUT having to do a full restore or set up as new?
    In a word, no.
    If I do restore or set up as new, how do I know it's not going to do the same thing tomorrow (like a few other forums threads I've read indicate might happen)?
    There is no way to know for certain but I've never experienced the same in the first place. I venture to say having to do this is the exception rather than the rule.

    how do i engage my 8 core mac pro to use all it's cores when using final cut pro and other applications that need processing power? at the moment they seem to be idle...

    First, did you use Setup or Migration Assistant? That can happen when coming from a PowerMac or sometimes even from another (Intel) Mac.
    Second, wait for the next version of Final Cut due very soon to ship (may have to wait for the ".1" of course to clean up any early issues.

    Notes:
    1) Please use the code tags when posting code or JNLP/HTML. It helps to retain indentation and avoids asterisks and plus sings being interpreted as formatting marks. To do that, select the code/JNLP etc. and click the CODE button seen on the Plain Text tab of the message posting form.
    2) That launch file is invalid. You might check it (and the project in general) using JaNeLA.
    3) The only place that SimpleSerial class could be, that the JRE would find, is in the root of aeon.jar. Is it actually there?
