Issue importing Word document with notes

Hello everyone,
I have a Word document that has about 80 short sections to it. Each section has endnotes, and the note numbering restarts with 1 at the beginning of each section. I have tried to import this document into CS3, but each time the notes appear as endnotes at the end of the document, not the end of each section. Worse, they number consecutively across sections. Quark, which also dumps notes at the end of the document, at least retains their original numbering, so I could cut-and-paste them back in place. Any information or suggestions on how to work this in INDD? Many thanks.

I apologize. I thought InDesign was part of Creative Suites and that this was an appropriate place to post my question. I did spend quite a lot of time reading other posts and threads, though, in many of the forums. I'll look elsewhere for help.

  • Importing Word Documents with Images

    Hi, When I import word document in to Robohelp, it imports
    the images also. Now, I have duplicate images in multiple topics.
    How do I avoid duplicate images being imported? Is there anyway,
    where I can collate and store all the images in a single folder,
    instead of saving it in multiple folders?

    You're right. One reason this plan never came to fruition is
    because this doesn't take a lot of time.
    When I first came aboard, I envisioned a lot of importing of
    Word documents where each change was done to a Word doc (complete
    with macros and useful AutoText) and then imported into RoboHelp.
    Then, a global search would take care of the image problem. But
    that isn't really our MO, so this never happened.
    Although, it's a great way to create a new project. Author
    your Word documents with meaningful characters to represent each
    icon. Then when you import everything, just include the graphic
    once and then do a global search.

    I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever.  Is that right?
    In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
    If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

  • Problem importing Word document with TOC

    I am trying to import a Word document containing a table of contents into Pages. The TOC does not appear at all and I get a box saying: "The table of contents is empty because none of the paragraph styles selected in the Document Inspector are used in the document". The TOC style in the original Word document is a hyperlink.
    Any help appreciated,
    George
    Pages 2.0.2

    I'm on Windows right now, but I will try answering anyhow. Forgive me for being foggy.
    If the the document complains that the styles are wrong, that is probably where the problem is. Somewhere in Pages there should be a setting to choose which styles to use for building a table of contents. You should try to change those settings to match the style names used in the Word document.
    A possible source of error here is if you use Pages in another language than the Word document. Let's say the Word document uses the German word "Titel" for Header 1 and you run Pages in French, which expects something like "Titre". It is then possible that Pages cannot recreate the table of context, unless you tell it that it should built it from the styles called Titel.

  • Import WORD document with pics - half the pages are missing?

    I've got a 100 page Word document, 3 storyboard pics per page.
    I import it into a Pages word processing or a layout document ... and I'm missing half the pages. Random chunks have just disappeared.
    I wonder what this might be?
    Ben

    I've only come across a couple Word documents that won't import at all and one sounds rather similar to yours. I made two attempts at different methods: 1) Using Word, I saved the document as an RTF and imported the RTF (rich text format) into Pages. That was better but the formatting was seriously messed up. 2) I opened it using TextEdit getting a reasonably accurate document. I then copied and pasted that document into Pages.
    Maybe one of these two methods will work for you

  • Importing WORD document with special regional characters in RoboHelp X5

    Hello,
    i have a problem, when im importing a *.doc document. The
    document is written in slovene and it contains special regional
    characters. Here is the deal:
    I was using RoboHelp 4.0 before and i had this same problem.
    What i did was, when i added a new topic (imported *.doc file) into
    existing project and the WebHelp was generated, in the web browser
    i clicked the last added topic and opened a source code, where i
    changed the charset from 1252 to 1250. That enabled the special
    characters to be viewed correctly. When i imported some additional
    topics and generated the WebHelp again, the program somehow "saved"
    the 1250 setting in the previous topics and the characters were
    correctly shown. I had to adjust 1250 only in the new topics, that
    were added before the last generate.
    When i try to do the same in RoboHelp X5, this doesnt work.
    Program doesnt "remember" the 1250 setting and it always generates
    with 1252 character setting. Which is a problem, because there are
    a lot of topics and i would have to change the character setting
    for every topic/doc document i added.
    What can i do ?
    Thanks in advance

  • Importing Word Docs with Images into RH7

    Hi All,
    I have a large Word doc which is full of images and text that
    I want to import into RH7. I've tried it and tried it, even
    converted it to PDF and tried it, but I don't get any of the images
    imported. I've discovered the images folder, but there's nothing in
    it and, just in case they're hidden(!), I've published and still no
    images.
    Can anyone help me with this?
    Thanks!

    No I have only been using it since Word 2 days. :-)
    Please don't mention the limit of 200 pages with graphics to
    my documents which can run to over twice that size.
    I repeat the point that if Word is struggling with this
    particular document, you cannot expect another application to work
    well with the document. RH does import Word documents with many
    images, it is something that I have done many times. I think the
    problem is something to do with the image type you have chosen
    (emz). If you look in the image import dialog you will see that EMZ
    is not a listed file type.
    Without being able to see your document, it is difficult to
    help you. Speak to your management. I regularly receive projects
    from people on this forum and nobody has ever had cause to
    complain. I would not risk losing the Adobe Community Expert status
    by revealing the content to anyone.

  • Issues importing word into indesign and keeping notes/superscripts

    Hi
    I have a job coming up where I will need to import word documents into indesign that come from various sources.
    I did some web surfing and discovered I should be able to do it by placing the word document into my template. It seemed to work when I first tried it, but I have now discovered that only the first few notes have from through (first 14 to be precise). Then the numbers disappear (and are replaced by soft returns) until note 33 where they jump back in. But of course this starts at the next number missing, so in this case 15. Which of course means all the numbers are out of order and so need to be fixed.
    I would just input or fix manually but as I have 15 stories place and format and the first one has 95 notes... I am hoping to find a less time consuming solution.
    I am guessing it is something in how the author has edited the word document, but I truly have no idea.
    Any suggestions as best way to overcome this? Ideally something I can ask the authors to fix. Or is there something in the import options?
    I am about to get EXTREMELY desperate with this issue.
    Thanking you call in advance.
    Cheers
    Nikola

    OK after some more web seraching I have tried saving as and RFT file and that seemed to work. So fingers crossed.
    Using these settings:
    If anyone knows why it happened please let me know as it would be most useful.

  • Working with imported Word documents

    I've noticed that Pages (for iOS) gets very slow and laggy -- especially the on--screen keyboard -- when working with imported Word documents. Is there a method to convert imported files to native Pages documents, and thereby maybe speed up the app?

    Turns out, it's not just Word-imports that are slow. Pages in general is just slow, and seems to have become this way after the iOS 5 upgrade.

  • Acrobat Pro XI Will Not Print Word Document with a Rotated Table

    I have a MS Word document that is mostly text, but include a table that has been rotated in a text box to fit on the page.  When I try to print to PDF using Acrobat Pro XI, the document crashes at the page the table is on.
    I have tried several attempts to print using the Acrobat Printer, convert to PDF feature and trying to print just the page alone.  Acrobat will simply not print word document with a rotated table.
    Any idea how to fix this?
    Word 2013, Windows 7, Acrobat Pro XI 11.0.06

    In the full document, the print to PDF goes only as far as the table, then ends - not printing the table.  The remaining pages are not printed.
    For example, I have trimmed the file down to just the table page, and included links to it, and a copy of the PDF it generated.

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/60543835/Forums/Table%20Sample_140903.pdf
    The error message I now get when I try to print is: "There is not enough memory or disk space to repaginate or print this document."
    However, with the Task manager open, the memory never seems to get above half of the available (the graph bar fluctuates a little, but stays stable")
    The page prints to a regular HP or Xerox printer with no problems.

I have spent hours trying to find out how to embed an image with a link, or embed a Microsoft Word document with a hyperlink built within the document -- not as an attachment into my email -- but where it shows as the email content when opened! Does ANYONE know the secret? Can it be done, or not? My PC clients do it all the time easily. Then I want to be able to send the embedded image/document (not as an attachment, but visable within the email when opened) to many email contacts at once, BUT the individuals receiveing them DO NOT SEE the other email contacts. Cannot seem to be able to find anything on being able to do these 2 tasks.PLEASE, SOMEONE, HELP!!!

  • Help with image file names when using Import Word document feature

    Hello,
    I am using File >> Import >> Word document into an HTML template.  If the Word document contains images, the images are written to the directory specified in my Site Default Image Folder.  Here is my question: As I was teaching myself the Import function, one time the images were automatically named to match the page name.  So for example, if my page is named Create.html, the images would be named Create_image001.jpg, Create_image002.jpg, etc.  I can't remember how I enabled this feature (or maybe I was dreaming) but if anyone knows how to control the name of the images imported from MS Word, please let me know.  I've searched and Googled for hours and can't find a way to control the image file names.
    Thanks in advance,
    Shellie

    I was hoping that this would be fixed in the 10.8.2 upgrade but it has not.  Anyone have any luck?  Earlier today I was trying to write a paper and navigating between 10 pdfs was a nightmare without being able to hover my mouse for the titles like I used to. 

  • Importing Word Documents to RoboHelp 7 HTML

    Hi,
    We are using RoboHelp 7 HTML for our project requirements.
    The approach we adopted is as follows -
    1.) Develop content in MS Word 2003 with proper formatting
    including the styles defined for tables, fonts, paragraphs, various
    levels of headings etc. We will have high number of word documents
    which need to be reviewed by the SMEs before putting them in
    RoboHelp.
    2.) Copy the content to RoboHelp. We are using the File >
    Import > Word Document. We find the following issues in the word
    documents thus imported -
    a.) Formatting errors like the font of the numbered list is
    not consistent. The numbers have a different font while the ontent
    has a different font.
    b.) The content in Tables is also not properly indented. It
    touches the borders.
    c.) Foreign characters are being introduced wherever
    double-quotes are used. Eg: ”r;Other” (it should have
    been "Other")
    How do we address the above-listed issues? How do we get the
    same output in RoboHelp as can be seen in the formatted word
    document? Do you suggest any better alternative?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Anil

    1] Yes. Non-RH users develop the content.
    2a & 2b] What I have noticed is that the numbers appear
    in Times New Roman while the content appears in Arial after
    importing. As mentioned, we have lot of documentation (many word
    documents). So each word doc I import, a CSS gets generated and
    editing them itself is a herculean task. Is there any work around
    this so that we can gain time and carry out the import smoothly?
    2c] Could not find the patch in your website. One of your
    posts says that it is Item 21. But cannot find any downloadable
    link.
    As suggested I tried reading the article in Printed
    Documentation. But really didn't know which one you were referring
    to.
    Regards,
    Anil

  • Losy images after importing Word document into RoboHelp 7 HTML

    We imported a simple Word document into RoboHelp 7 HTML, as a
    new project (from scratch).
    Everything worked out pretty well (afterall, this was just a
    simple Word document), and we expect to have to tweak the styles,
    etc. That is understood.
    However, the images that were embedded in the Word document
    (as opposed to saved to disk, and only linked to the Word document)
    do not look very nice in the RoboHelp 7 HTML project topics.
    When we browse to the iamge folder, and view the actual image
    files, these images do not look too bad. But in the Design View,
    the images have display issues (solid color bars on the
    sides/top/bottom of the images). When we compile to a Single Source
    Layout (except PDF), the images look fine again. When we create
    Printed Documentation, even for the best PDF-settings, the images
    look terrible -- smudgy, like low resolution quality).
    1) Except for storing the images outside of the Word document
    before importing, and then manually linking them back into the
    imported RoboHelp HTML files, is there a way to maximize the
    quality of the imported Word images in RoboHelp HTML?
    2) Why doe the images look worse in Printed Documenation
    (PDF), even for the highest PDF settings, than for the other Single
    Source Layouts?
    While I am typing, I realized that we should try to include
    the images in Word via a link to the image files on disk. Perhaps
    then RoboHelp will not actually modify the image files during
    import. I will report back about this one.
    Your help will be greatly appreciated!

    Looks perfect, works terribly...
    Things to consider:
    Chances are, the different treatments of the space are due to whether the space was included in the bolding of the word in MS Word.
    Additionally, since Word files contain much underlying binary code (macros and such), your security settings might or might not be playing well with the Word stuff.
    Are you importing the Word file from a network location, or from your local machine? Network traffic might be partially impacting the import, too.
    Bottom line? You'll probably need to clear all formatting in the Word file and redo the formatting properly. To test this, cut a couple of pages into a new Word file, clear and redo the formatting in Word, import the Word file into another RH project, and see what results you get.
    To clear the formatting:
    Select text.
    On the Home tab, in the Font group, click Clear Formatting.
    Redo the formatting, being careful to not format the spaces.
    Good luck,
    Leon
