Is there any way to add a text variable in Illustrator CS3?

To keep track of our proofs, I have a text box in Illustrator with the date and time that I would like to automatically update everytime I save the file.
This is possible in InDesign by inserting a text variable. Is there a way to do this in Illustrator?
Thanks for any tips!

The only I'm aware you can do this is with a plugin from Worker72a

    Hi, hbirkie, and welcome to Apple Discussions. No, there isn't any way to apply text to a photo in iPhoto — you have to do that in a different application. MS Word is the last one I would ever have thought of using for that purpose, but if it works for you, great!

  • Is there any way to add scrolling texts manually on Captivate 5?

    I tried to used the text box entry in standard objects as a scrolling text, however it failed when someone else on here replying to another forum saying it should work. The main purpose of this is for the people visiting this project, i need them to be able to scroll and view the directions/information I set for them instead of having to push buttons and go to a different slide to view these directions/Information...

    For scrolling text captions, try this widget: http://www.dorna.nl/?p=574

  • Is there any way to add a hyperlink to text in Messages.app?

    Is there any way to add a hyperlink to text in Messages.app? 
    I frequently share links via Messages and would like to have clickable text with a hyperlink beneath vs an ugly URL.

    Hi,
    In iChat and early versions of Messages this used to be CMD + K keys together
    This no longer works.
    It seems CMD + K is free as a Modifier keystroke.
    I would have  added it as an item in System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts.
    The issue with that is the fact that there is also no longer an Menu item for it.  (so it does not work).
    You can add a URL and then Right Click and there is an Edit option but this only allows you to change the URL and not add a URL to existing unsent text.
    Right Clicking unlinked Text does not allow you to Edit it either (well there are some format option but not Hyperlinks)
    I can't find away around this.
    I know in the past the AIM service suffered from malicious code sent in Hyperlinks  so this might be the reason.

  • Is there any way to add PO no and  corresponding line item of PO in VL32N?

    Hello,
    The scenario is, we have created the IBD and deleted one of the line item and saved it.
    We went to VL32N and added the missing line item to IBD but PO number and corresponding item number of PO field of newly added line items are grayed out. We are not able to add PO number in VL32N screen.
    Is there any way to add PO number and corresponding line item of PO in VL32N screen of IBD? Our client does not want to create new IBD for same PO. He wants to add the line item in same IBD.
    Thanks,
    Milind

  • Is there a way to add images , text and button in the individual marquee of a carousel

    Is there a way to add images , text and button in the individual marquee of a carousel ?

    Write a custom carousel.  Usually carousel components are just ULs that use something like jQuery to rotate through the LIs.  The foundation carousel component is really just designed for some specific use cases.  Generally I would just recommend rolling your own.

    You can make all hidden menu entries visible with this code in userChrome.css below the @namespace line.

    You can use the ChromEdit Plus or Stylish extension to have easier access to the customization files.

    Is there any way to add watermark on iMovie 10.0.1 version? I could be able to do it in previous versions with enabling advanced settings.

    You do it 10.0.1 in much the same way you did in iMovie version 9. You use Picture-in-Picture.

  • Is there any way to add chapter markers running Mavericks? Is there a reason they have been stripped out the new OSX?

    Is there any way to add chapter markers running Mavericks? Is there a reason they have been stripped out the new OSX?

    Is there any way to add chapter markers running Mavericks? Is there a reason they have been stripped out the new OSX?
    Depending on your choice of workflows, it appears you can still
    1) Add chapter marks manually with QT 7 Pro,
    2) Add chapter markers graphically using GarageBand,
    3) Use a video editor to set chapter markers graphically,
    4) Use a DVD conversion/burning app to set specific or add equi-interval chapter markers, or
    5) Use a media/device player that adds playback only chapter makers when no chapter track is embedded within the file.
    What kind of chapter markers are you referring to here? Mine are not "stripped out" during normal use but can be automatically removed during various conversion workflows.

  • Is there any way to see a text history from an Iphone???

    Is there any way to see a text history from an Iphone that has been synced to Itunes account???

    SMS's are not synced through iTunes. Your SMS history is stored on your phone and also included as part of your iPhone backup. To view SMS's on your computer requires either extracting them from your phone or from your iPhone backup. Either or requires third-party software, as such is not supported by Apple. clayfromherriman has given you a way to extract from your backup. To extract from your phone, you can use this:

    We each have our own device, a laptop and an iPad.  when sending imessages recipients cannot tell which of us sent it other than looking at the content.  Is there any way to add an identifier to make it clear who is sending the message?  I know we can say 'this is mom or this is dad" but when an email is sent it identifies the device that sent it so why not imessages too? 

    Stop using the same apple id on all your devices. Each person should have their own. You can still share apps via home sharing.
