Microsoft Jet Provider problem with small or big numbers numbers

I'm using an script component as a source to process excel files. Inside the component I'm suing the Microsoft Jet provider with the OleDb connection to open and read the data in the excel file. Several of the columns on the spread sheet are
numeric and some of the values are very small. I found out that when the value is very small the number is represented using the scientific notation, so when the provider try to convert the value to a number fails and send a null value instead. Does
anyone know a way to solve this problem? The reason I'm using an script component is to process multiple file formats in one data flow task using a loop through iterate through all the excel files.
Thanks,
Alberto Botero

Problem with Small Caps

I have a problem with small caps when using Times New Roman and Helvetica, but not when using Adobe Garamond Pro, and would like to find out why.
I generate the small caps within InDesign by the "TT" box in the Control Window. Adobe Garamond comes up with beautiful small caps that blend in with the surrounding text. When I do the same with Helvetica, the small caps, especially if they have normal caps amongst them, are quite inelegant looking because of different letter widths.
So I did some experiments with half a dozen other serif and sans-serif fonts and none of them were as elegant as Adobe Garamond Pro. For a sample of what I mean, download:
http://www.mediafire.com/?z5fm0zndmzm
which compares three fonts: Adobe Garmond, Heletica, and Times New Roman.
Unfortunately, I did not pick up this problem until I received my first proof from the printers, and now I will have to change all the Helvetica small caps to normal caps, as I can see no other way of overcoming this inelegancy.
I checked in New Scientist magazine (it uses a serif and sans-serif font throughout, and what I thought I remembered as small caps to begin their stories) to see what they do, but they actually use caps instead of small-caps at the beginning of stories.
Three questions:
Q1: Is the way I generate small caps the correct way?
Q2: Is there something wrong with my Helvetica and Times New Roman fonts?
Q3: Could it be that only Adobe Garamond has an internal, properly designed small caps?
I have checked the attributes of the fonts: Garamond is Open Type Postscript, Helvetica is PostScript Type 1 , and Times New Roman is TrueType.
Any comments most appreciated.

Thanks for the hints. I tried Scott's method and it works with a bit of extra adjustment. The settings I obtained for 12 point Helvetica were:
Horizontal and vertical scaling: 70.5%;
Stroke: 0.1 pt
Tracking: +25 em
Baseline shift: +0.1 pt
The steps to obtain small-caps 12 pt Helvetica are:
Step 1: Type text as normal.
Step 2: Select only the lower-case text you want to convert to small caps. i.e if what is to become small caps already has a capital (such as a place name) do not apply the settings to the capitals, unless that's the effect you want.
Step 3: Apply the above settings manually or via or Character Style.
Problem 1: How do I rid my Character Style of the font size so that only the scaling factors remain? As it is, if I want to apply small-caps to a different font size than the one I have set up, I have to manually change the font size after applying the style.
Problem 2: The scaling factors do not appear to work for changes in font size. When I used 24 pt and applied the above settings, the small-caps were too thin. The method only really works for a particular size, which in reality is all you would normally require.

A problem with small circles drawing...

I can't draw small circles and dots. Don't advise me to use the zoom. Is it a normal issue for Samsung Note 10.1 or Photoshop Touch?

I have the same problem on my samsung galaxy note 10.1 and PS touch v 1.2.0 (can't upgrade it without new official firmware).
And I really don't know how to post screenshot with items that cannot be painted with your software.
On this device drawing is done with stylus (If you dont know). Stylus provide great precision and allow to paint small details.
The problem is that brush does not start drawing immediately after stylus touching the screen. Instead of this it waits until user will move stylus away from start point by 3 millimiters. And only after that photoshop will draw the first segment of line. If you try to draw small circle with diameter of 3 mm photoshop will draw just start point. Because stylus will never leave 3 mm area around touching point. this also means that you can't draw lines with length less than 3mm. And this also means that every line will start with 3mm straight segment. So you can't draw small details.
This small thing (and also bugs with smudge and blur tools and opacity problems with brush and awful color picking tool) made painting with photoshop really tricky.
Maybe you made this 3mm margin to make your color picker work (which pick color only after touching the screen and then pressing side button). But it is unobvious for users (as you can see by questions on yor forums) and bring some additional problems with painting (as you can see in this post).
And what is really terrible is that I can't just delete your useless software without root rights because it was preinstalled by samsung.
Best regards.

Pdf reader X has problems with small pdf and printer with post script driver

Hi friends.
I have installed new Reader X and then i saw that, when i print a very small pdf with about 50 kb and i print it on a Laserjet 4000 printer the printer has problem with the amount of data that reader 10 produces.
When i install a Postscript driver for the printer my computer makes up to 3.5MB printer data from a 50kb pdf.
When i install a PCL driver for the printer my computer makes only 350kb from the same 50kb pdf file!!!!
When i install Reader 9.3 the 50kb file becomes also only 350kb on the printer with post script driver, and i can print without problems also.
my printer has 8 MB Ram and that should be enough for 3.5MB printer data.
But when i print the pdf with 1 side only, the printer created a side who is only filled with 50% of the text, then there comes out a second page with the message.....not enough memory in the printer.
i can not change the postscript driver to a pcl driver cause our ERP System can not handle printer with PCL drivers.
Can someone help me please.........are there settings in Reader X who can solve my problem ???
Thank you very much for help!

Problem with small text in iview header

hi,
i got a little problem with iView header.
I've set 2 pages containing the same iViews. The 2 pages have layout (1 column full width -- standard) and the 2 pages have the same properties, themes.
The problem is that in the first page the header text is very small and in the second one the header text display correctly.
Have anyone had this problem and how did you solve it ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I don't have a straight answer but:
1. Have you tried creating a copy of the page which is working correctly?
2. Why do you need two pages with the same content? Personally, I can't see any reason for maintaining two identical objects.

Dreamweaver CS3 problem with small fonts

Hello,
I am having a problem with text appearing
REALLY SMALL and unreadable in CS3, when it looked fine in
Dw8. It also looks fine in in all browsers.
I talked to Adobe tech support, and they said something about
my CSS file not being correct. I looked at it, and nothing seems
out of the ordinary.
If it was a problem with my CSS file, wouldn't it look bad in
the browser as well?
Any suggestions?
Ron

Ron,
Thanks for the sample file. This is a bit complicated, so
please bear
with me.
Up until DW8, DW rendering always targeted the most popular
browser at
that time. For DW8, that was IE6. Traditionally, the most
popular
browser was the most popular because it was the best browser,
but that
no longer holds true. So, DW CS3 now targets CSS 2.1. Note
that DW does
not support all of the CSS 2.1 spec, but what it does support
follows
the spec.
Your page does not have a DOCTYPE, so it renders in "quirks"
mode in the
browsers that I tested it in on WinXP (FF2, IE7, Opera9). DW
renders
this page in IE6 quirks mode, but DW CS3 no longer supports
quirks mode.
Put a DOCTYPE such as the following in your page to see what
I mean:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01
Transitional//EN"
http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
The reason that the font is so small is because of the
font-size
property in this rule:
TD {
FONT-SIZE: 80%;
Your page has tables nested 4 levels deep, so the 80% is
compounded at
each level. I fixed this in DW CS3 by creating a style sheet
with this rule:
TD { FONT-SIZE: 100% !important; }
and the applied it as a Design-time Style Sheet, although you
may be
able to remove the 80% altogether.
Hope this helps,
Randy

Fop 0.19 problems with small files?

Hello!
I have a problem with fop 0.19 serializer: when I try to generate
pdf files smaller then cca. 10kB, IE does not open Acrobat
Reader, and sometimes even freezes. With larger files, it works
OK.
My configuration:
Tomcat 3.2
XDK 9.0.2.0b
fop 0.19
Thanks in advance!
Vedran

Hi Eric/Steve,
I have downloaded the Xml development kit for Java (9.0.2.0.0C
beta) and created a new xsql RTF-serializer class according to
the XSQLSampleSerializer included in the xsqlserializer.jar file.
I also included Eric's CustFOP-serializer.
I can compile my new class with JDeveloper but when i recreate
the xsqlserializer.jar and try to use this jar-file with the
xsql servlet i get an error.
The error is "XSQL-022: cannot load serializer class
oracle.xml.xsql.serializers.XSQLxxxSerializer", with xxx my own
serializer, but also when i use the original FOP-serializer.
So i think the jar-file is not correct.
Can anyone tell me how to recreate the xsqlserializer.jar or
tell me what else i have done wrong?
(I also posted this question in the JDeveloper-forum)

I am having problems with small text size on AOL mail, and am using the latest version of Firefox.

I am having problems with text size when using AOL Mail. I am using version 25.0 of Firefox. I did not have this problem in the past, but I suspect a change occurred with one of the Firefox upgrades. I do not have the same problem when using Internet Explorer.

Could you start by resetting the zoom level on the page? To do that, you can either:
* Press Ctrl+0 (that's a zero) on the keyboard
* View menu > Zoom > Reset
You also can use zoom to increase/decrease the size from there. This article describes the various mouse, keyboard, and menu methods: [[Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages]].
Any luck?

Problem with Facebook status blocking phone numbers in contact list

Unlike a lot of users, I don't mind that my Facebook contacts merge with my other contacts. However, I am having a problem with viewing all the information in some of the individual profiles. It seems that whenever someone updates their FB status, the status posts where the phone number usually is. The only way to view the phone info for these contacts is to "edit" the entry, then you can see the phone info. Does anyone know if there is any way to eliminate the status update from the contact information?

I don't mind seeing their updates, I don't even mind seeing the update on the individual contacts page. I mind not being able to see the phone number field in my contacts list. I have a friend that has the original Droid and he stated that the update is at the bottom of the screen, not the top covering the phone number. Why is it that on a phone with so much "ability" that it has to put the Facebook status field over the phone number?

Problem with small .pct files from PC becoming big when saved on Mac

For a big database project with Photoshop images, I create bitmap files in PS CS3 and save them as .pct files. They are 4-5 KB each.
I then email them to someone with a Mac (all versions from CS2-CS5) who must open the files in PS to get the Mac database to see them. When she saves them on her Mac without making any changes, the files are 60-70 KB.
How can we preserve the small files on the Mac?
Thanks!

1. When she receives the files in my email, they are still small. When she opens them in Photoshop and saves them, they become about 12 times bigger.
Is there a way on the Mac to strip out the thumbnails and other info that is making the files bigger?
2. The database program, Panorama, has the user link to the images, which are in separate folders. However, the image does not appear in Panorama unless she opens the file in the Mac version of Photoshop and saves it, even without making changes. I assume that is an oddity of Panorama, but we are stuck with it.
Thanks so much for your quick response.

Do you have a case number? From
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/forum/surfpro2-surfnetwork/how-do-i-get-the-wireless-hosted-network-feature/03657fe5-b8c1-48c5-940a-ae3e13ffe25f
you've had a couple of contacts with support.
If you provide case numbers, it would be helpful in escalating further. And more
specifically, it might help someone from Microsoft determine IF the issue has
been escalated. While Microsoft has been doing work on the wifi driver for
nearly the entire time since the SP3 was released, there is no information
anywhere as to whether this bug is known or not.
As you also know, I sent it in to the"right" people inside Microsoft and as you
also know, I did not get a response. (I'm an end user just like you even though
I'm a Community Moderator on the Surface Forum in Communities).

Microsoft Sync Services problem with Entourage (calendar)

Out of the blue, when I open Entourage, I get a dialog box: Microsoft sync services has encountered a problem.
I've isolated it to Calendar in Entourage. I cannot open my calendar. Email works, contacts work - but the error message pops up when I click on calendar.
I've tried to reset sync services through iSync and with a line item in Terminal (/System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsy nc.pl reset)
I 'was' using MobileMe - with calendar & contacts (only) synched, but I un-synched them.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Ever since I installed Snow Leopard, i get a random error message that sync services has quit, and do you want to send to Microsoft? I always select yes and as of now I have sent more than 160 report messages. This generally happens about twice or three time a day. Some days, the total Entourage quits and has to restart. I do not have the specific problem you describe as calendar works most of the time, but the sync services crash happens randomly. I can find no one who can explain why with Snow Leopard and not with Leopard. Going to Microsoft for a solution is not the answer, as I can find no one there to talk to for free. I use iCal and Mobile Me for my synching, but use Entourage as my e-mail program as I am used to it. I also have sync services active so my Entourage calendar will be up to date, but I make no entries into it.

"conflicts/provides" problem with splitted package

I'm currently working on some brother printer packages and have the following situation:
I want to replace the not-working package brother-mfc260c in AUR, and have made two packages, brother-mfc260c-lpr (the LPR driver) and brother-mfc260c-cupswrapper (the LPR-to-CUPS wrapper), which together provide what the old package should do (or have done).
Here are the dependency specs from the new PKGBUILDs:
brother-mfc260c-lpr:
conflicts=('brother-mfc260c')
brother-mfc260c-cupswrapper:
depends=('brother-mfc260c-lpr')
conflicts=('brother-mfc260c') # This could also be omitted because its dependency already conflicts with brother-mfc260c
provides=('brother-mfc260c=1.0.1')
But pacman doesn't like it. Whether I try to install both packages at the same time, or install brother-mfc260c-lpr first, and then brother-mfc260c-cupswrapper (like below), I get the same error:
# pacman -U brother-mfc260c-cupswrapper-1.0.1_1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
loading package data...
checking dependencies...
error: replacing packages with -U is not supported yet
error: you can replace packages manually using -Rd and -U
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: brother-mfc260c-cupswrapper: conflicts with brother-mfc260c-lpr
Should I file a bug report, or is this behavior intended? If the latter case applies, how can I solve such a conflict without loss of generality?
Thanks in advance!

Profjim wrote:Can you confirm that you've already manually removed brother-mfc260c?
Sorry for not mentioning this earlier. I've never installed brother-mfc260c on my machine to begin with, because I don't even have such a printer. But I've successfully created such a package pair for the brother-mfc210c, and have read on the AUR page of the orphaned brother-mfc260c package the comment "The driver is not working... DELETE!!!", so I've made a package pair for this model in a similar style. And the brother-mfc210c package pair only works with the above mentioned provides/conflicts statements because its provides-statement has a typo which I've found after uploading it to AUR.
To make a long story short, because of these two facts (never installed the real brother-mfc260c, and the typo in the brother-mfc210c-* packages), I'm quite positive about understanding how the provides/conflicts mechanism works.
Profjim wrote:I think pacman knows to remove the existing package and install the new conflicting package, but only when the install is from a repo, not when one is using -U blahblah.pkg,tar.gz.
I couldn't understand why this should matter from where a package is installed. IMHO this is a totally different layer of abstraction. But I'll make a test repo tomorrow to clear this question.
Concerning your 3-package-suggestion, this wouldn't fit right away because both real packages have to conflict with the original one, because it is ~just~ a split of that package. And maybe there are still some people around using only the LPR driver and not the CUPS wrapper on top of it.
After testing your suggestion, I'll post a feature request and will link it to this thread. AFAICT interpreting a conflicts statement not only against a package with the exact name but also against packages which provide that one is simply a design decision, and not clearly right or wrong. Would it only conflict against a given package, all other packages which provide that one and have files in common would have to be listed in the conflicts array, too.
For the moment I've solved the problem by simply removing the provides-statement, because there is no package explicitly depending on brother-mfc260c, and the probability of it happening will be quite next to zero, but the basic problem still remains, and that's why I wanted to consult the community first before giving the devs extra work.

Problem with "small black line in right margin" with Folio Builder / Adobe Viewer in Ipad. Id CC.

Hi there,
When I create a Folio Builder and I check my Id project in the Adobe Viewer (It happens in the Ipad App and in the Desktop Viewer), I can see a black line in the right margin (maybe 4 px). And I can't adjust my background (It's an object with a colour) to use the "full resolution available for the app in the ipad", and yes, I'm using rules and I can see that my background object it's 1024 x 768. I have tryed several projects and upgraded the project to the "30 version".
But I'm a new user with ID/DPS. So, is this a reported bug? Or I'm doing sth wrong?
And for me, the most important question, will this problem be solved when I send my project to the applestore and DPS transform my Folio to the Store? Or what I see now it's what I will see?
Thanks!

Sorry! I have found an answer here in the discussion:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5835960#5835960
So, the problem will be solved in the final app, and it's just the scroll in the Viewer.
Thanks!
