You are right with that.
I've mismatched the tabs.
So, go to Inspector

Sorry but I haven't English menus in pages.

  • How do I get rid of various lines around text boxes when using navigation panes

    How can I get rid of these various lines that are displaying sporatically around different text boxes . . . but only when the navigation panel is displaying?  I previously had the issue and changed the text box properties to no fill.  It fixed the problem in the document with no navigation panel, but once the navigation panel is displayed the lines appear.  And yes, I fixed the text box properties before creating the bookmarks for the navigation panel.

    Every device, browser and browser version has its idiosyncrasies.
    Just using a stroke and a drop shadow should not have been enough to require Muse to convert the page fill to an image. Were/are there also other effects on the page? Are the page corners slightly rounded?
    Bevel and Inner Glow definitely require an image to be created. Most other effects/properties do not.

  • Odd lines around text in dissolve

    Hi Folks,
    I have been experiencing some odd lines around text when I am dissolving and can't figure out why. The text is generated from FCP and these lines only appear after rendering. Prior to rendering I can step through the dissolve and all is well. I have tried changing the compressor setting for the sequence to all flavors of ProRes, and even uncompressed, and it has no effect. The only thing that did have an effect was to change to an additive dissolve from a cross dissolve. However this makes the dissolve less linear and unacceptable.
    All of the effects handling is being done by Final Cut so there's no third party hardware in the mix. I am running on a 17" MacBook Pro, OS 10.5.8 and FCP 7.0.1 with motion filtering set to best.
    Additionally here is a link to an image grabbed from the timeline showing what I am experiencing.

    I tried the Outlined Text generator and still have the issue. If I add an outline it actually gets worse. I did however try Boris and with that it goes away. This is really odd and I wish I knew what was causing it. For now though I guess I stick with Boris.

  • Rule around text boxes?

    How do we remove the rule around text boxes?

    Hi graphicscoordinator,
    There currently isn't a option in FormsCentral to remove the rule that appears around text fields. There is a Feature Request form where you can sumbit your request for this feature, however. Visit https://adobeformscentral.com/?f=XnF-KJVCovcEVQz9tZHYPQ.

  • What are the blue lines around text in a text box in Pages 09?

    I'm now seeing blue lines around all of the text in any text box in my Pages layout document.  Its a bit annoying as it makes it hard to see the layout when I'm working in the text box.  See below.  Just curious if this an issue or some undocumented feature I'm not aware of

    Any text was copied and pasted from documents not the web.  Interestingly, if I add a new text box, the "Type here to enter text" also has the blue lines around it.  However, if I select all and delete that text, I can now type text without the blue lines.
    Also, if I create a new page layout document and add a text box, there are no blue lines.
    Its all very strange and seems to be eluding everyone.
    Thanks however, for your help.

  • Objects (lines) and text boxes are not able to be made bigger or smaller

    first of all: For no reason at all, all of my text boxes are now set up as threaded text.  I dont know how that turned on.  When i go to "type"
    and try to select "threaded text" it wont allow me to select it - it is not highlighted.  So I have no clue
    how to turn this off.  Now I can not stretch my text boxes to suit whats in them - ie: make them bigger or smaller, ie:  there are only two boxes to drag - one at either side of text box and they wont allow me to drag them to make the box bigger - only to move the entire box (before there were 4 boxes to manipulate the size of the text box - one on each corner - now there are only two)    and this seems to apply
    to many other objects now.  when i draw a line, I have to make sure that line is the exact right size because once i draw it - it wont allow me to make it bigger or smaller - it only allows me to move it to a different place - i dont understand what is happening

    thanks for writing back
    i am pretty sure it is area type because in type i can see "area type options"
    i dont know how to turn bounding boxes on or off so I can not answer that question.
    yes i should be able to resize the bounding text box by dragging and ive always been able to do that.  however I can no longer do that.  the usual bounding text box that i am accustomed to has little teeny boxes all around the entire box - in each corner - so i can drag each corner easily
    this set up that has currenly taken over my illustrator program has only TWO little teeny weeny boxes that when selected wont allow me to drag them to resize at all.  when i double click on one of these two little teeny boxes it gives me the thread text tool... which i dont want and have never even used before
    i just want my text boxes and everything else to go back to normal so i can drag them to resize them again
    does that make more sense or have i explained it better?
    thanks for your help!  Kim

  • White lines around texts with object effects applied

    I am having a persistent problem with InDesign's output of PDFs when I have applied object effects to text boxes.
    When I use an effect—such as emboss (shown in samples) or outer glow—on a text box, the PDF renders it with white lines around the text boxes (sometimes with more than one).
    See the attached samples; the boxes are clearly visible with a 3rd party PDF viewer, such as Skim; less so with Acrobat Pro, but still there. It's there when I open the PDF in Photoshop, as well.
    I've tried playing with transparency flattening settings, and with merging the layers into a single layer. No help.
    The sample shown has an emboss effect applied, transparency flattening set to high resolution (ignoring style overrides), and a single merged layer.
    Any help?
    In Acrobat Pro:
    In Photoshop:
    In Skim:

    Thanks so much, Bob.
    My printer requires that I use the PDF/X-1a:2001 standard for PDF export, which means that it must be Acrobat 4 or later compatibility.
    Also: I don't see how to NOT flatten, when exporting PDF for print; the options for flattening are "low resolution," "medium resolution," or "high resolution"—but there is not an option to NOT flatten. Do you know a work-around for this?

  • IDCS2- How do I create lines in text boxes?

    I am working on a fill-in keepsake book that has many pages of prompts followed by journal lines. i.e. "The best part of the trip was____" and "People we met___" etc. I know there is a way to create the text box so the lines fill-in around the text and look nice and even, but can't seem to find it in the help or manual. Anyone know? Thanks!

  • Blue line around active boxes disappears, cannot figure out why....

    Hi ... hope you can help me with this, it's a minor irritation but it's driving me nuts. I'm writing a report that has several boxes with imported graphics in it.
    The active boxes have a light blue line around it, with tiny clear boxes in the corners and side mid-points. I can drag any of those tiny boxes to resize the image, or use the metrics inspector to enter the dimensions numerically. But sometimes, when I make the boxes larger, the blue line around the active box disappears.
    Those blue lines lining the active box are useful for aligning the graphics boxes, so it would be nice if they stopped disappearing on me.
    Anyone know why that happens?
    Thanks!
    shireen,
    new to iWorks

    I don't have any troubles selecting and aligning text boxes and graphics since I stopped sending them all the way to the back (arrange menu/send to back). There are times when you want them back there but most of the time you don't. Pages uses layers and one of the layers is the default text layer. Anything behind this text layer is difficult to select.
    You can select items behind the text layer by clicking in the area outside the margins and drag the pointer over to the graphic without releasing the mouse. If you use the 'send backward' command the object still remains easy to select.
    Some objects that have transparent areas (PDF's created from eps files for example) can only be selected by the click and drag method described above or by carefully positioning the pointer over a black or colored area until the pointer turns from a cursor to a pointer.

  • Need to add a cut line around text with a stroke

    This has been driving me nuts for years and I've often found ways to "kind of" accomplish this, but I figured someone here might be able to help.
    Create text, convert to outlines, add a stroke. Ok now I want to add a cut line around that entire thing so it's dye-cut out on vinyl. My cut line is just a stroke with a color defined in my pallet. I can create 2 strokes, but I can't figure out how to get one to go to the edge of the other. I also tried duplicating the image, creating just an outline, but it's impossible to get it exactly outlined by hand.
    If I'm not explaining this right, please let me know.
    So there I have the text, converted to outlines, white fill and gold stroke. I need to be able to dye-cut this. If you add a new stroke, it's on top of the old one. Basically I want to add a stroke, to the stroke, but only the outside.
    Thanks in advance!!

    Thank you Larry. I kind of followed what you said but I think there's some steps missing here?
    I'm glad you showed me how to create additional strokes without creating outlines, I was never clicking above "character", I had to click above it to add a new stroke, if you have the text selected, it's greyed out.
    Ok so I created a new stroke, then selected it, went to FX > Path > Offset Path. I chose 0.02 (closest I could seem to get, but not perfect, ok in some areas, bad in others), miter joins set to 4? Are those the same settings you used? You didn't tell me how much you offset yours. Then I selected the offset path stroke and went object > expand apperance, but it didn't seem to do anything? It just removed the offset path FX option on the stroke? This is where I'm pretty confused. Why even do the step after the offset, couldn't I just stop there and print?
    After adding a stroke and offsetting
    After selecting Object > Expand appearance.
    As you can see, like on the C. There is a gap between the cut line and the stroke at the top, but there's no gap on the left side, but there is on the right, and there is on the bottom as well? If I printed this, I would get white fill, gold stroke, and then another white stroke basically.
    Thank you for your patience, I'm self-taught but over the last 4 years of using it every day I'm still learning new tricks!

  • Acrobat Pro 9, blank lines in text boxes vanish upon save

    Folks,
    Since I upgraded from Acrobat Pro 8 to 9, whenever I put blank lines in a text box, the blank lines disappear as soon as the PDF is saved.
    Here's an example:
    - Open a PDF file
    - Click on text box tool in the toolbar (or from menu Comments->Comments and markup Tool->Text box tool
    - Draw a box on the PDF page somewhere
    - Enter "First line", then hit Return twice to add a blank line below, enter "Second line"
    - Right now my text box contains two lines of text separated by a blank line
    - Hit save
    - Blank line vanishes in the text box. Now the two text lines are on adjacent rows.
    This did not happen in either Acrobat Pro 7 or 8. I've been using textboxes consistently for years without this silly behavior.
    Any suggestions? I've looked through forums and knowledge bases and such to no avail.
    I have acrobat pro version 9.0.0 running on XPSP3.
    Thanks!

    Hello Petros,
    I figured out how to make this work, at least on my computer.  Hold CTRL key and hit ENTER.  This leaves the space.  Hope this works for you.

  • Gray Box Around Text Boxes in PDF

    I've created a text box with a picture frame "stroke" (the one that looks like a slightly curled piece of paper). When I export the file to PDF and open it in Acrobat, in addition to the background graphic of the paper with the drop shadow, there is a faint box that circumscribes the actual text box within the graphic. This faint box does not display when I view the PDF in Preview (or in Pages). This happens in both Pages 08 and 09. When I print from Pages or Preview, the faint boxes are not there. But when I print from Acrobat, they are. Also, I've created the PDF from both the Share>Export option and the Save PDF option in the Print dialog box, with the same results.
    Is there any way to not have this faint box appear in the PDF when viewing it in Acrobat? This problem is preventing me from being able to distribute the document in PDF format to PC users.
    Thanks.

    I'm disappointed that Pages '09 still does this, although it may be because of Adobe's wacky way of handling PDF documents. I've posted examples of this on this forum before, but nobody was able to help. The line artifact isn't because of the text box, but rather the picture frame effect you're applying. These lines not only appear on screen in Acrobat, but print that way too.
    There is a workaround I use when I create Pages documents using graphic borders like the curled paper one you mention.
    Instead of exporting your Pages document as a PDF, use *Print>PDF>Save As Postscript...*
    The PDF button is at the bottom of the print dialog box, select *Save As Postcript* from the pull-down.
    Once your .ps file is created, double click it and it will open in Preview. Then save it as a PDF from Preview using *File>Save As...>PDF*. Open this file in Acrobat to check it, and you'll find that the border problem has gone away.
    One note: Upon close-up side by side comparison, you'll notice that your graphics aren't quite as crisp looking, like they've lost some resolution. But I've had both versions professionally printed at high resolution, and the difference is very minor. It's just that the original Export feature of Pages produces better looking PDF files, especially on Macs. Your PC users have to use Acrobat Reader, which doesn't seem to render PDF documents as nicely on screen.
    Hope this helps.

  • Stroke around text boxes??

    Is is possible to give text boxes a stroke?? I am creating a announcement sheet and the previous way they did it was in publisher where they had a background and then a filled text box with a stroke around each one.
