Office 2010 Excel and InDesign CS2

For a number of years, I have been placing Excel tables and graphs into InDesign by turning them into PDFs.
I was able to correctly size the tables/graphs by doing a "Copy as Picture" in Excel and directly pasting into InDesign prior to creating the PDF.
We recently updated to Office 2010 and its version of Excel, and now the "Copy as Picture" step no longer accurately represents the sizing of the PDF.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I'm having some trouble getting my arms around the fact that you'd spend money on MS Office upgrade but you're still sitting there with CS2.
Tables in Excel can be placed directly into ID using the file place command. The graphs will need a different route and PDF is as good as any if you don't need to make changes. If you want better results, copy/paste them to Illustrator, save as AI and place that.
I don't think CS2 can handle the XLSX format. You'll need to save back to XLS. Another issue with sticking with CS2 is that it's unsupported under newer operating systems and can be even more troublesome on 64 bit system.
You might want to consider an upgrade to CS5. CS2 is the earliest version eligible for upgrade pricing and if you wait too long you'll be looking at paying full price. If you're running the suite, make sure you look at the right package. There are several upgrade choices. http://amzn.to/alf9eu is the Design Premium upgrade.

    Hello,
    I see that we are having some issue when attempting to print in colour.
    I have done some research in to this issue and I have found a document that deals with when the Printer Does Not Print Black Ink or Color Ink, or Prints Blank Pages.

  • Illustrator CS2 and InDesign CS2 not starting - here is how it was solved.

    This document is merely a compilation of information found at the sources named at the bottom of this document.
    Basically running older Adobe CS2 Software on a MacBook Pro 10.6.x Snow Leopard - probably like many of you that either can't afford the upgrade to CS3, CS4 or CS5, or maybe don't see the need to do so.  It's running good but it is slow since it is using Rosetta, but it does work - well, used to work.
    Illustrator CS2, InDesign CS2, Photoshop CS2, etc. were all running fine after the upgrade to Snow Leopard (under 10.6, 10.6.1 and 10.6.2).  Then the update to 10.6.3 was installed.  At the same time a bunch of other updates - including the Acrobat 8.2 update - were installed.  Not really sure what did it, but all of a sudden Illustrator CS2 stopped responding at the start up screen - no longer started up and InDesign CS2 popped the registration/licensing screen.  When trying to enter license info on first key press the application quit entirely.
    So maybe the 10.6.3 update was the culprit.  Never even thought that it could be the Acrobat 8.2/8.2.1 updates.  Then I found this thread here:
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/613287?tstart=0 (good reading)
    Which ultimately pointed me the the instructions here:
    >start quote from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/534/cpsid_53468.html
    Replace the corresponding files present in the “ /Library/Application Support/Adobe/TypeSpt/Unicode/Mappings/” folder with the one attached to this document.
    Download the attached Mac.dmg (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/534/cpsid_53468/attachments/Mac.dmg) file to a machine where the issue is seen.
    Close all Adobe applications
    Double Click the Mac.dmg file to mount it.
    Copy Mac folder from mounted image. Paste it to /Library/ApplicationSupport/Adobe/TypeSpt/Unicode/Mappings/.
    A message appears to confirm to replace the existing 'Mac' folder. Replace the 'Mac' folder.
    Launch Illustrator or InDesign CS or CS 2.
    The Mac folder attached to this KB document already has the correct permissions set, so it should not be necessary to complete the steps below. However there may be cases where the permissions for the Mac folder get overwritten. In such a case, the original issue can reoccur. To solve this issue, complete the steps below:
    Follow Solution 1 and make sure that all Adobe applications are closed.
    Right or Control click and select 'Get Info' on the Mac folder  in “ /Library/Application Support/Adobe/TypeSpt/Unicode/Mappings/”, which you have copied from the .dmg file attached to this document.
    Verify that under 'Sharing and Permissions' all users listed have no write access
    If a change is required, click the padlock symbol and provide your Administrator credentials
    Select the user which has Write access and change it to 'Read Only'.
    Ensure the user 'Everyone' is set to 'No Access.
    To check if the issue has been solved, launch Acrobat 8.2 and then Illustrator or InDesign CS or CS 2.
    < end quote
    Even after following the instructions still "no love" from Illustrator CS2 or InDesign CS2.  InDesign did no longer show the registration screen, but it didn't continue launching, and Illustrator progressed further along in the start up sequence but also never finished launching.
    Then I found another article on the adobe site.  I am just quoting the part performed  and which ultimately did the trick.
    >start quote from http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/326/326388.html
    Steps 1 and 2 are not relevant so no need to do them
    3. At the Finder, choose File > Find.
    4. TypeAdobeFnt10.lst (Illustrator CS2), select the system drive, and then press Return.
    5. Delete all AdobeFnt10.lst files found.
    6. Restart the computer.
    7. Restart Illustrator. Illustrator creates a new Adobefnt10.lst or AdobeFnt07.lst file.
    < end quote
    So, this solved the problems at least for the time being.  Hope this helps someone else a bit.

    Illustrator CS2 stopped working for me on Snow Leopard as well. What it all boiled down to was not to update to 12.0.1. Not sure which release of Snow Leopard I was on when I figured that out but I keep up-to-date, am now at 10.6.6 and CS2 still works fine. I keep getting prompted to update to 12.0.1 from time to time but just cancel it.
    I'm fairly sure I was at 12.0.1 already when I moved from Leopard to Snow Leopard and it was that, not a Snow Leopard update, that "broke" CS2 12.0.1. If I remember correctly, if you now try to apply the update, it won't go through with it anyway.

    Hi Raghavendar,
    Generally, when you install Lync 2013 in the computer with Office 2010, a Lync Meeting Add-in will be installed and enabled in Outlook 2010. Please follow these steps to check it:
    1. In Outlook, click the File tab, click Options, and then click
    Add-Ins.
    2. Please take one of the following actions:
    If the add-in is in the Inactive Application Add-ins list, follow these steps:
    a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
    COM Add-ins, and then click Go.
    b. Click to select the check box next to the add-in, and then click OK.
    The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
    Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should be available when you create a new calendar item.
    If the add-in is in the Disabled Application add-ins list, follow these steps:
    a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
    Disabled Items, and then click Go.
    b. Select the add-in, and then click Enable.
    c. Restart Outlook, and then verify that the add-in is displayed in the
    Add-ins dialog box.
    The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
    Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should now be available when you create a new calendar item.
    3. In Event Viewer, view the Application log to see whether an error was logged for Outlook, for Lync 2013, the Lync Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office 2013.

  • All of Office 2010 Student and Home Edition Programs open as Microsoft Single Image instances since Installing Outlook 2013

    Office 2010 Student and Home Edition has been running without problems on my PC since 2012. Recently installed Microsoft Outlook 2013 (The version of Office 2010 did not include Outlook), since then, every time I open any of the original Office 2010 Programs
    eg XCEL, WORD, POWER POINT, ONE NOTE, the program opens in 'Microsoft Office 2010 Single Image' which appears to have to be installed every time any of the programs are opened. The Installation process takes anything up to a few minutes to complete and sometimes
    when filing or printing a document, the install restarts, on occasions, in an endless loop which requires random,imaginative keystroke action to terminate. The program shortcut icons all point to the 'Microsoft Office 2010 Single Image' application, I have
    not succeeded in finding where the original programs are located as a quick way of trying to fix the problem.
    The new installation of Outlook 2013 opens normally.
    Evidently, the Outlook 2013 installation has disturbed the 2010 licensing or something ellse, can this unintended change be reversed?
    Short of a complete Un-install + Re-Install, I have tried every straightforward  repair/ change (run All on my computer)/ enter product code etc option, all to no avail.
    I have read of variations on the same problem relating to mixing Office 2003/ 2007, cases of Outlook 2013 starting up in a similar way, but no examples of the specific problem outlined above. The next step
    is a complete Un-install + re-install of Office 2010, is this the answer or do I need to go further? Indeed, is there a quick fix?

    Hi,
    The Microsoft Office Single Image 2010 is a set of tools, documentation, and product files that licensed original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) can use to preload Office on new computers for distribution to end users.
    I would suggest you to try the methods listed in this KB article:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2528748/en-us Just run the Fix-It tool mentioned in the page, or follow the steps to fix it by yourself.
    A similar issue is discussed here, you might have a look:

  • Reusing a license of Office 2010 Home and Student edition

    I installed all three licenses of Office 2010 Home and Student edition on my wife's and daughters laptops.  Last weekend, we had to buy my daughter a new laptop for college.  How do I uninstall the license from her current laptop and install
    it on her new laptop?  Her old laptop is gong to the recycle with a screen that is broken.

    Hi,
    Try to activate it by phone. I suggest you contact Microsoft Customer Service and Support, telephone (800) MICROSOFT (642-7676).
    In Canada, call (877)568-2495.
    Microsoft Customer Service hours of operation:
    Monday through Friday, 5:00 AM - 9:00 PM Pacific Time
    Saturday and Sunday, 6:00 AM – 3:00 PM Pacific Time
    I also want to re-assign one of three licences for this version of Office, but I went to the Support website, which prompted for the product ID and indicated that the "free support"period had expired.  Can the reassignment be organised at the time of
    activating on the new computer by phone?  Would a person be speaking with a human if doing a phone activation?  Will there be a charge and what's it likely to cost?
    I also have a suggestion for Microsoft: a de-activation routine that would enable the licence transfer process without the need for human support.

    I created a spreadsheet using Microsoft office 2010 Excel.  When I open the sheet using Numbers, the formatting changes.  How do I fix this?

    If you plan to share or work with people who regulary use MS Excel you should not try to use this in Numbers.  You will have constant problems with how each program translates the formatting.
    If you want to use Numbers, use it exclusively.  If it is for your job use the tool your company uses.

  • Deploying Office 2013 through SCCM 2012 SP1 leaves Office 2010 Tools and Sharepoint behind

    I apologize in advance, but I have searched similar topics to this, but I haven't seen an answer yet that describes where and how to accomplish this.  I'm also a bit new to SCCM and I'm still finding the nuances.
    Scenario:  Running SCCM 2012 SP1.  Office 2013 32bit is added as an application and deployed properly with an accompanied .msp file stored in the source folder.  The configuration is to have Office
    2010 uninstalled silently.  The deployment runs flawless and the user doesn't know otherwise.  Success in anyone's book, right?
    Except... Office 2010 Tools and SharePoint Workspace 2010 are left over.  Manual uninstallation is not an option.  This is for hundreds of PC's in several global locations. 
    I've seen it hinted to write a script.  That's fine I suppose, but what do I write, where do I store the script, and can I have SCCM2012 automatically run it before the installation of 2013? 
    Our favorite IT tool Google hasn't quite returned what I'm looking for.   Does anyone here have ideas or perhaps have experienced a similar issue?
    Thanks,

    1st, save the following content as a XML file on a server share, named as "config.xml".
    <Configuration Product="ProPlus">
    <Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />
    <Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="Never" />
    </Configuration>
    Run the following script during or before the installation of Office 2013:
    "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE14\Office Setup Controller\setup.exe" /uninstall ProPlus /config \\servershare\Config.xml

  • Office 2010 home and student

    I am setting up a business that will depend on me being to change websites and some othern things so I really have multiple questions.
        First. This is a very sophisticated Sales system that is using multiple computers. I have Dell Desktop. Windows 8.1 full version. Dell Latitude LTE 8.1 that is an upgrade from 8.0. Nokia 2010 phone that I have seen both ways. It has the
    Black upgrade but one site I was on said I did not have 8.1 and one said I did ( I think that was the Microsoft ) store. And then I am using a Garmin GPS. I have to have trip software and it needs to load multiple addresses. This was for me for my sales territory
    but I think that is about to change.
       I have Office 2010 that is not a very old version but keeps coming up and saying it wants its product Key. I put it in and it checks out OK asks me to get out of office and reenter and it will run OK. I do that and it just keeps doing the same
    thing. This happened after loading the new 8.1.
        This is going to be a business application but the system took me almost a year. I am in project Sienna and have  a visual trial.  
    That I am learning to use. This is going to be business so I need business approval. I am determining if I need developers tools or not. I like developing but I have projects that are already developed and I am not really interested in developing for
    the store. I am going to probably run several web sites. One for Youtube and One for you.
       Plan is to help you both with Mapping.  I am kind of an odd associate but I have witnessed the interest from you and Google on my mapping. I use the Dell tablet for PDF catalogs and Pricing and then The GPS to get me there. The
    desktop for geosinking addresses and a lot of office paper work. The phone has multiple uses. The camara,quick emails, and aps that has all kinds of uses.  
      This is not a fluke I have been working on this for 20 years. The tablets just wont do the job. 2 pounds to heavy,2" to large,2 minutes to slow on boot and it looks like a computer and the older guys don't like it. The tablet changed all that.
    With that said I will be trying to contact your Mapping Division and see if they need me. The system is very difficult to install. Four different computers must talk to each other about the same thing and multiple small problems arise and must be solved. I
    can only at most do 2 systems a month and depending on their equipment they have and want to use maybe only 1. This is to important for that. It saves 2 1/2 hours a day for people who must find a lot of addrsses. That was unexpected. It happens all day long.
    The GPS is saving 10 minutes here and 20 minutes there and ends up saving at least 2 hours a day. Now the icing on the cake. I made 15 calls in one day between 9:00AM and 3:30 PM. These were leisurely calls. When I leave in about 4 days they are going
    to luv me. What I realized while testing this was that most of the stress from an outside sales job was just getting there. When you take that stress off of that job it goes back to being a fun job that is fun to do. You punch the button on the GPS and it
    will go from call to call for as long as you want and pick back up the next day from where you left off. I tried both the phones and tablets for mapping but those really would only work for finding an address here and there. You overload the phone and the
    tablet to try to combine a very sophisticated trip program with them. The tablet would have a very hard time being mounted on the dash and then you pull it out of its mounting to go in and make a call with it. Then try to Email your order in and then put it
    back in the mounting to use as a GPS. The same problem with the phone. It has a very important job with what it does and is overloaded for really a lot of reasons to give it the mapping. Again it would be fine and actually very good to go find one address
    but to start trying to get it to do industrial numbers of calls is just asking to much of one unit. GPS has serious job to do. It is left in the car while you are making the call. It is ready to go when you get back in the car. This is an industrial system
    with serious attempst to save time and money and improve the lives of the people using it. Kindest,Larry Don
      PS this is to important for me to go out 1 account a month with. This will enhance the whole computer industry and needs to be with the big boys and girls that can put together a serious marketing program behind it. Please get this to the right people.

  • Re-assigning a retail license for Office 2010 Home and Student - any charge for support?

    I want to re-assign one of three licenses for Office, but I went to the Support website, which prompted for the product ID and indicated that the "free support"period had expired, presumably because it is 12 months since I first installed it.

    Hi
    Normally Office for a retail version can only be activated once at a time in one computer, Office 2010 Home &Student can be installed on three machines.
    If you have used up your activation times and want to transfer your Office to a new computer, contact Microsoft Customer Service and they will help you to activate your Office in a new machine:
