Indesign export options?

I feel like a freak here, as I am not a designer, but am forced to get into Indesign because I need to export an indesign project to Word.
In fact I have a PDF created from Indesign, and have tried converting that to a Word file, but it seems there would be a lot of work to correct it.
So my question is could I export an Indesign project to a Word file as I have to translate it to Spanish and I think I can only do this in Word.
Or is there a good tool anyone can recommend for converting a PDF to Word, I have tried most of them, but none are really perfect.
Any suggestions would be deeply appreciated.

That's because there is no "perfect" conversion possible. If you could do everything with Word, nobody would need InDesign. (Oh ... and the reverse, of course.)
Did you try exporting just the text to RTF?
Did you look at Recosoft's tool, at http://indesignsecrets.com/pr-recosoft-ships-id2office-a-new-indesign-to-microsoft-office- conversion-tool.php?

When I try to export an InDesign document I can't choose any export options (epub, ea). I use InDesign CC2014.

When I try to export an InDesign document I can't choose any export options (epub, ea). I use InDesign CC2014. See below my screendump and the missing exprt option field

see Replace Your Preferences

My Indesign CC doesn't show any export options, defaults to PDF.

When I go to export a document, there is no longer a drop-down bar with export options. I can save as a PDF, but not as an IDML or anything else. What am I missing?

Version of InDesign? Computer platform?

InDesign Export to PDF Pixellated

My InDesign Exports to PDF are Pixellated. When I then open those PDF's into Photoshop and resave as PDFs they are not and the file sizes are drastically different. I've compared export specs and while all the major ones appear to be the same, they are not all available in Photoshop vs InDesign.
I've created an InDesign PDF export file and a Photoshop Save PDF file to demonstrate the difference in view. Would someone take a look at these and help me out? I'm pulling my hair out over this difference and would like to remove the step of having to open in Photoshop every PDF file I export from InDesign so I can get it to look right.
I am unable to upload the PDF's in the image section of this forum.

I think that solved the problem. To protect myself, I'll have the printer do a proof before the run.
Question: If I'm sending this to a customer via email for approval -- and they don't have 'smoothing' turned on in their reader (assuming that have that option) -- will it go back to pixellated?
Thanks for your help!

Well, I looked at the first file and saw no pixel aspects at all. It was very clean. Check that you have display smoothing turned on in your preferences.

Export Options not displaying in Object Style Options panel

Hi,
I'm trying to create an object style for decorative images as artefacts and set that style for export to PDF, but in the Object Style Options panel the Export Options settings (which I've seen before, bottom left of the panel) are not displayed. Can anyone tell me how I can make them visible? I'm on InDesign CS6.
Thanks, Ally

Hi changilainen2,
Yes, we are following Adobe Forum!!!
Thanks for your inputs. Actually while implementing this feature we were bit confused if it is of more importance to have these options in the Object Styles. That's why you are finding it missing from there.
But feedback from you and some other folks, made us realize that we should have it in object styles too.
Thanks we'll try incorporating this in the feature.

Object Export Options...

Would anyone know an easy way to access Object Export Options found in the Object menu of InDesign using a script?
More specifically, we currently have a script with a dialogue that adds alt text to images in a document and has other features that are almost identical to the InDesign Object Export Options feature, but with slight differences. We are trying to synchronize so that when a user adds an alt text thru our dialogue using our script, that the alt text will be changed automaticly specifically under Custom heading in the Object Export Options.
I have found a similar example, at http://forums.adobe.com/message/5688491, but not quite what I'm looking for.
Any ideas?

Hi Andrew,
Do you need a script that will apply Alt Text as Custom type in Object Export Options for images in a document. Please find below script which does same thing:
myGraphics = app.activeDocument.allGraphics;
myTotalGraphics = myGraphics.length;
for(var i=0; i<myTotalGraphics; i++)
myGraphics[i].parent.objectExportOptions.altTextSourceType = SourceType.SOURCE_CUSTOM;
myGraphics[i].parent.objectExportOptions.customAltText = "Graphic Number : " + i;
Thanks

What are the advantages and disadvantages of suppressed and unsuppressed content in indesign layer option?

what are the advantages and disadvantages of suppressed and unsuppressed content in indesign layer option?

I occasionally use layers set to suppress output for holding text that differs from the text in the visible part of a document that I need for variables or TOC entries sometimes, or for notes or guides I want in the file but I don't want printed. You might also want to suppress a layer with some sort of overlay, like the die-lines for a die-cut piece, when you export a PDF for screen viewing.
I'm sure you can come up with other reasons for having content on a page in the layout, but not in the final output.

Why can't I get the advanced selection available in EPUB export options in illustrator CC? It's just not there.... Neither is the image selection available. Only Epub reflowable and fixed layout, but not EPUB...

I have created a form in InDesign, exported to a pdf, then created an editable form and saved. When I open the form and make changes and save, then reopen the changes are there. If try to email this form as an attachment after editing, the attachment is always minus the edits. ????

Hi chuck,
If you ave created the form and then filling it yourself and saving the form, the filled data should be there when you reopen the same form.
Can you please send the form to me at [email protected] so that I can have a look.

Problems in Limiting Export option in Web Analysis shortcut menu options

Hi everyone,
i'm trying to limit the shortcut menù option in Web Analysis studio following the instructions in the WA 9.3.1 user guide: "Limiting Web Analysis Studio Shortcut Menu Options" page 293. Exactly i would hyde the Export to some users (an user with Viewer and Expoler permissions).
The problem is that the solution does not work.
Resuming:
First, I have created the WAMenu.xml file, with restrictions for the roles: Viewer and Explorer (using the same tags of the Sample XML File in the guide)
Second, I have modified the WebAnalysis.properties file removing the # ahead this two lines:
"WAStudioMenuControl= C:/Hyperion/Analyzer/conf/WAMenu.xml
ModuleName=WebAnalysisStudio"
and modified the path with the correct location of the XML file.
At last, i have restart the services regarding Workspace and Web Analysis.
But, it does not work. The user can still see the export options in the shortcut menu..I don't understand what is wrong..
I really hope that someone can help me!!

Hi Iain,
thanks for answering.
Unfortunately it doesn't restrict neither in the workspace nor in the WA studio.
I made a lot of attempts, not only with export but also with other option, and there are no changes!!
Do you remember if you made the same steps descripted above, or there is something that i did not make (or made wrong)??
Cheers,
Angelo

IR export options and embedded HTML

Good day,
Apex 3.2.1.00.12, 9.2.0.8 DB, on AIX 5.3.
I have an IR where in I use html in the SQL that defines it to format certain columns such as the below
"<div style=""overflow:auto;height:50px;"">column value here</div>"I then define the display type as ' Standard Report Column '.
That obviously allows me to have some "formatting" power that the IR does not give by default.
Problem is when I do the export to a CSV I get the html markup included as the value of the column.
Is there a way I can keep my formatting desires and export without the html included in the value ?
Also, can I export the whole result set to CSV, not just whatever I have pagination set to ?
I do NOT have a print server.
Thanks for your time,
CLG

What export option you used.
I am using default export option and it exports all the records on report. Not current page.
Furthermore for your requirment I ahve done lot of test regaring same thing. But I didnt find any solution. So what I did was create my own export function for those reports and then use that.
Thanks
* If this answer is helpfull or correct then please mark it and grant the points.

Export options in Voyager

I created Voyager documents for my cubes. The tool is great in terms of its ability to report data from the multiple measures and dimensions. When it comes to Export options - The export to excel is pretty clean, but it doesn't carry the formatting to the exported file. This feature is something that our users really felt was missing. Can this feature be released as a patch or part of a service pack release? Also, the export doesn't carry the title of the report to excel or PDF (print to PDF - Data).
Thanks in Advance!!
Harish

To confirm: Column formatting like display -> Name:Caption .. .. is not being exported to excel
please refer to Note # 1345585
this behaviour will be enhanced in XI3.0 Sp3 - due end 2009.

ReportViewer 2010:how to hide pdf in export option in subreports in reportviewer

Hi,
I am using ReportViewer 2010 and using code (posted below) to hide certain options from export, its working fine for parent report, but when i am clicking on parent report to view child report, then export option in child report is showing all the
items in export option which all are hided in parent report. So please help me out.
private void DisableUnwantedExportFormats()
FieldInfo info;
foreach (RenderingExtension extension in rptviewerByBrandBySentimentAttribute.ServerReport.ListRenderingExtensions())
if (extension.Name != "PDF" && extension.Name != "ASPPT" && extension.Name != "ASPPTX" && extension.Name != "EXCEL" && extension.Name != "MHTML") // only PDF and Excel
- remove the other options
info = extension.GetType().GetField("m_isVisible", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
info.SetValue(extension, false);
if (extension.Name == "ASPPT") // change "Excel" name on the list to "Excel 97-2003 Workbook"
info = extension.GetType().GetField("m_localizedName", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
if (info != null) info.SetValue(extension, "PowerPoint 2003");
if (extension.Name == "ASPPTX") // change "Excel" name on the list to "Excel 97-2003 Workbook"
info = extension.GetType().GetField("m_localizedName", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic);
if (info != null) info.SetValue(extension, "PowerPoint 2007");

Hi,
Thank you for this article.
I am using the localreport ReportViewer 2010 and other code examples weren't working.
Apparently, the m_isVisible field was not available in earlier version of ReportViewer
info = extension.GetType().GetField("m_isVisible", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.NonPublic); info.SetValue(extension, false);
Code that wasn't working:
FieldInfo info = extension.GetType().GetField("m_serverExtension", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance); if (info != null) { object actualExtension = info.GetValue(extension); if (actualExtension != null) { PropertyInfo propInfo = actualExtension.GetType().GetProperty("Visible"); if (propInfo != null && propInfo.CanWrite) { propInfo.SetValue(actualExtension, false, null); } } }
Thanks again, chupaul :)
