No %%Bounding Box: Comment in header!

Hi,
Since I recently upgraded to 10.4.9 I am encountering problems with printing. Some seemed to be related to outdated printer drivers and things then worked well for some time. However, since two days ago, I am always getting an error message when printing to an HP LJ 1200:
"No %%Bounding Box: Comment in header!"
The printer has been installed via HP JetDirect/IP-Printer. I am getting the same error message when printing from any application; Word, Adobe, Camino, etc, and when printing the preview. Documents are not sophisticated, just plain text and figures.
I reinstalled the printer, with no avail. If the printer creates some output, it takes a very long time and the printout then consists of three to four lines of numbers and letters.
I do not have problems (yet?) when printing to a Lexmark C510; everything works fine. So, printing is not completely disabled, fortunately.
It seems that others have encountered the same problem, and there was a similar thread (unsolved though) in the Tiger discussion group. I really would be grateful if somebody could provide me with a tip how to solve this problem.
Second, in the System Settings - Sharing, I can not disable Printer Sharing. Clicking in the box or the Stop button has no effect. The same is true for Print&Fax; I can uncheck the first box (share printer with other computers), but when I reopen, the box is checked again.
Any helpful hints will be appreciated!

Exactly the same problem and error message w/ my HP LJ 1015(network printing from Mac to WinXP).
greg: how to re-update the combo update? I have downloaded the standalone comobo update from Apple website, do I need to go back to 10.4.8(if so how?) then install the combo update or it'll be fine just install the downloaded update on the current 10.4.9 system? Thank you.

Can someone help me in building an interactive PDF form with dynamic bounding box?

Hi Guys,
I need to create an interactive PDF form which will contain images, text and fields.
This is how it would be laid out:
Header Image at the top.
Below that a Text Box with a question "Choose the number of licenses" and a drop down option from 1 to 10.
Depending on what they select, I need the following to be displayed.
The following should be encapsuled by a bounding box.
If "1" is selected. "Username: <blank field> Password: <blank field>
Then a button which says "Click Here To Login To Your New Account".
The bounding box should end here.. and I have more text and images below.
This I could achieve! But now if I select "2" I would need the bounding box to automatically become taller to accommodate two rows with "Username <blank> Password <blank>
The bounding box needs to expand or contract based on the number selected in the drop down.
Would love to here your thoughts on this!
Cheers,
Rajiv

If you were to look at the spec for PDF, you'd see that that is probably not possible with a PDF file.
But, I encourage you to ask this question in the Acrobat PDF Forms forum where the forms experts reside, and perhaps they could suggest an answer. JavaScript can be used, and perhaps that's the answer:

How to get bounds of bounding box of text item.

Hi all,
I am trying to get the bounds of bounding box of paragraph text item. I found the following link,
the coordinate of a bounding box is the same as the layer's coordinate?
But the solution doesn't work for me. It gives me the layer's bound every time i.e. the bounds of actual text.
Can someone have any idea how to accomplish this?
Thanks.

It's a known "not trivial". You have layer.textItem.width/height, but they don't always report correct values. I.e. if the layer or doc has been resized, those values are missing scale multipliers. Worse it's works differently wrong in different versions of CC and Mac/Win. What I use is below (with some utility functions missing), but it's just CC 2012 and 2014 (CS6 is just bounds).
Alternatively you can get this stuff on Action Manager only, but I'm not familiar enough and let other comment on it.

Bounding Box

Hi Guys
I'm a newbie to Spry and I attach an image of a problem. I get a partial black bounding box line to the righthand bottom edge of the heading and a partial white line to the left and part of the bottom edges of the dropdown box. Yet when I check out the variousSpry options in the properties panel, I can't seem to find one to turn this off. Can anyone offer some guidance please?

Hi...just had a brief moment here..
Check these two items... "borders"
or,
if the is a link... there is some kind of borders outline that attached.... set them to "0"... do not just leave the boxes blank...

Is it possible to reset a layer's bounding box to exclude alpha?

I searched the forum before asking.... I'm not even sure how to ask this properly... I have imported several layers from a photoshop file. Many of the layers are in groups to give me some pre-comp options in AE. On import, I did NOT choose to retain the layer size (or whatever that third option is) — I brought the file in just preserving the layers themselves. The precomps (when placed inside my master comp) have a bounding box that is limited to JUST that PSD's group content. However, if I open the pre-comp itself, all of the layers bounding boxes are scaled/sized to the size of the comp (in this case, 640x960). This means that the smaller layer items (say, a hand) has it's anchor point in the middle of the comp and the handles are on the perimeter of the comp. SO, even though the hand layer is only 200x200px in total size, I've got all the negative space included in my bounding box.
What I'm wondering is this: do I need to move everything out of groups in my PSD in order to be able to see the relatively appropriate bounding box? Or, is there a way to "crop" the bounding box so that it finds the widest and tallest distances of a layer's content (excluding the alpha) and then trim/crop/reduce/adjust/resize itself accordingly?
I'm not sure how else to ask it. Sorry.

Okay... so, I had the import types reversed in my head. Importing as "Composition", will force the bounding box of every layer to fit the width/height of the comp itself. Importing with "Composition: Retain Layer Sizes" will actually crop the bounding box down to the layer's content.
I thought retain layer size meant that it kept the size of the canvas, regardless of transparency in the layer.
Still, it would be nice to know if there is anyway to address that scenario in AE....

Transform/Bounding Box Bug Illustrator CC 2014 18.1.0

Hi Guys,
I did a little screencast here, anyway the bug is a simple one to explain. For some reason the transform/bounding box disappears on single objects, but behaves normally on multiples and groups.
Such a small thing but very annoying.
cheers

Any fixes soon Adobe Illustrator ?

Thanks to you both Monika Gause and Jacob Bugge
All those alternatives certainly match up to the testing I'd done, probably the fastest/cleanest is to just hit "unite" in the pathfinder palette.
For the benefit of other users, coming only recently from CS5 this is an interesting new option, MENU = OBJECT > SHAPE > EXPAND RECTANGLE (snapshot below) once you have "Expanded" the rectangle it will behave as expected where toggling back to the black Selection Tool (V) will show the transform handles.
I'll be heading over to Yosemite in the next week if I get some downtime to make it happen! (crosses fingers - back up - back up - back up...)

Bounding box for text

Howdy, I am looking for a way to get the bounding box of some text. I can do it with a graphics2d object, but there are some times when I want to get the bounding box without having access to a graphics objects. I have looked at several classes in the API and it seems that they either take a graphics object or one of their parameters takes a graphics object (Parameter A uses a graphics object of method A, for example). Is there a way to do it without one?
Thanks.

Bounding Box and Affineransform

I'm working on a tank game. right now, i just have an applet and a little tank that drives around. unfortunately, i can't figure out how to get a bounding box to encapsulate with my image. can anyone help me? my prog is two classes: TankGame and Tank.

Does not print what is shown in bounding box

PE9:
I have a 5.33 x 4 sized photo (.psd). What is shown in the bounding box does not print - it is cut off.
In #2 (printer settings) I have tried both borderless 4 x 6 and just 4 x 6, landscape.
In #3 (paper size), I have selected 4 x 6.
In #5 (select print size), I have tried both actual size & 4 x 6, with the crop to fit box unchecked.
It makes no difference, the photo printed cuts off the top & bottom of the photo.
It does not print what is shown in the bounding box.
I added text but did not flatten yet.

Please relaunch PSE and update or reinstall printer drivers. Also reset the PSE preferences by:
   1. Close Elements.
   2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Edit.
   3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
4. try printing now.
Do enable print preview from printer preferences to check what is the preview printer is showing which is passed to printer for output. try priting from Organizer.
For paper/color saving i would recommmend try priting in XPS or Adobe PDF and check the output and then print on actual paper
Let me know your comments,
thanks,
Garry

Text put into a canvas element with context.fillText() always has a black box where each letter goes. If the text is black you just see the black rectangle. If the text is not black you see it on the black bounding box. Surely this is not right.

This has happened on the last few versions of firefox, as long as canvas has been supported. I see other people's screen shots from canvas tutorials, and the text always looks normal. On my system, any text put into a canvas element via context.fillText() will have a black bounding box for each letter, sized appropriately for the letter. If the text is black, of course you only see rectangles. If the text is a contrasting color, then you can read it, but it looks bizarre.

Thomas...same kind of crap here.
I used Custom Text - entered a sentence, hit return, entered another.
Set to 72 pt.
The default alignment is centred - I want left aligned text...the text start point stays at the centre of frame and the sentence runs off the edge of the bounding box.
There is no settings in the Text or Title inspector dialog to correct that!
Using Transform will not sort it!

Bounding boxes appear in Acrobat after exporting from InDesign

Whenever I create outline fonts in my CS3 version of InDesign (I haven't upgraded to CS4 on this one program yet), I'm left with some very strange thin white lines surrounding some or all of the resulting letters that look suspiciously like bounding boxes. This never seems to occur if I don't create outline fonts, but simply embed the fonts and create a PDF using the Export command, so I have to believe the anomaly has something to do with this conversion process within the program. If I use illustrator CS4 to create outline fonts and then place them within my InDesign documents, I don't appear to have the problem. However, that's not a very desirable solution as it negatively impacts the fluidity of layouts and the ease of design, both of which I use in design for.
And yes, these small thin white lines do print, so the problem is far more than merely academic.
Has anyone else ever experienced this issue, and if so, how did you solve the problem (assuming you did)?

Sorry about that, I apparently forgot to attach the file; have done so now.
The method I'm using for creating outlines is simply to use the "Create Outlines" command under the Type menu within InDesign. Then I create my PDF files by using the Export command under the File menu and choosing the PDF/X1a option. 99% of the time I get perfect results, it's only when I try to make outline type that I encounter this problem. You'll clearly see the artifacts in question in the example attached.
I don't know whether or not the press would have printed these artifacts, as you suggest, since no printer has been willing to execute a file that shows any anomaly in the proof process. I can't say that I blame them.
Hopefully you will see what I'm talking about and can recommend a solution, though I like your idea of simply giving them a properly executed file and then telling them to get a life. It hasn't worked so far, as I unfortunately deal with a lot of Neanderthals around here, but I suppose it's worth putting forth again the next time this issue arises. It will.
By the way, no print house of my choosing is this far behind the curve, if at all. These cavemen are always printers who have long-standing relationships with my clients, and for whatever reason (generally lowest cost I'm sure), the clients think they hung the moon. We, of course, no otherwise, but it does it profit a designer to tell his client he or she is crazy for using a printer who is a decade behind the technology curve.
We cowboy up and seek solutions, eh?

Is there a way to tighten a text bounding box?

Hey all,
I've looked before but never found a definitive answer to this question:
Is there a way to tighten the text bounding box without converting it to outlines?
I work for a screen printer, and want to figure out a way to tighten the bounding box without changing the leading and without converting it to outlines in order to be able to edit said text. We deal with a lot of clients who send us names, that are often misspelled, and after an initial proof need to be corrected. Sometimes we need to center this text to an object.
Illustrator's bounding box, unlike that of Corel (which is our primary program, and won't open AI files) includes the leading below the type, so when you center it, it's not visually centered:
So I guess my real question is is there a way to get the text centered (as seen below) without converting the text to outlines, or messing with the leading, or is there a way to tighten the bounding box?
Thanks in advance!

CS2 Need to set text bounding box to snap to exact measurement, not em size and without leading

I am currently using CS2 working in a sign shop designing signs, banners and vehicle lettering.
When working with text I need to know the exact letter height, not the em and without the leading. I need it exactly the way it would measure if converting the text to outlines. The reason I need this information is that when I output the lettering to a cutter/plotter to cut vinyl media I need to know the exact measurement so I can nest my lettering on my media size. The media is typically 24" wide which gives me 22.5" of available space once the pinch rollers on the machine are considered. Pinch rollers are rollers that engage a knurled driving wheel and "pinches" the media between them and thus guides the media through the plotter. Of course, when using any media one must make the best use of it to avoid making scrap or using more than is needed for the job at hand. Converting text to outlines gives me that measurement.
One time awhile back I did a google search on this and found a one or two button fix that made the bounding box snap to the exact "ruler" height of the text. It worked great. But I got away from design work for a short period. When I returned I'd forgotten the process. Back when I did find it I never bookmarked or made a text file explaining the process and I'm ost in finding it again.
I don't know exactly how I worded the google search but the answer I was looking for came up on the first page. That's probably why I didn't feel the need to bookmark it or write it down. Now, I've googled dozens of different wordings for my question and get nothing. It's likely a nomenclature/jargon issue and I've yet to stumble on it again.
If anyone could help out I would so greatly appreciate it. As it is, when I get to the point that I need to know the exact ruler height of my lettering I convert my text to outlines. But then, as sometimes happens, I'll desire to change the font or try someting different but the text is not live so I'll have to start over with that line of lettering.
I sincerely hope my explanation of my questions makes sense to anyone who might be reading this.

Jacob Bugge, you are a blessing. This effect not only saves me time but avoids a lot of frustration when a client wants to change some copy or I commit a spelling error or have some other brain malfunction. Not to mention the sometimes hundreds of single words or number groups I must fit onto an artboard set to my available media space.
Option 2 is exactly what I was looking for and I'll remember it forever now as I've spent parts of the past week searching that answer only to hear over and over again, "You can't do that in Illustrator".
Thank you so much for your quick response!
