Paste selected text AND images from a webpage to Pages/Word?

I'm a new Mac user (also running virtual Windows XP via vmware fusion), and I know next to nothing about my Mac. Please bear with me if this is something that has been answered (I looked, but didn't find a specific answer for my question...it may be here, but I can't find it).
On a Windows-based PC, all I need to do is select, copy, then paste into a Word document. All text and images would paste. I can't seem to figure out how to do that in Pages or Word (have MS Office for Mac, too).
Thanks for any help.

I suppose I was hoping I could do on my Mac, what I did on my Dell...that doesn't appear to be the case.
Specifically, I'm talking about clicking/dragging to select what I want (including images), opening a Word document then pasting everying, including ALL selected images. More specifically, at sites with game walkthroughs. I prefer to save them to a document and refer to them offline, if I need to. I actually tried it at 2 different sites (one that hosts their own images and one that does not), with the same results.
While I was waiting for a response (thank you, so much, by the way), I tried again and actually managed to get the first 3 images (of 60+) to paste into Word. There were blank places in Word, but the invisible images were clickable. In Pages, only the text pasted.
Tried it every which way, but Sunday, LOL, and nothing worked. If it can't be done on my Mac, then I'll just keep using my Dell (I knew there was a reason I decided to keep it) for that sort of thing and then email them to myself...or try installing my MS Office '07 under virtual Windows.
Thanks, again.

How can I erase the residual background text and images from the backside of a scanned page?

How can I erase the residual background text and images from the backside of a scanned page?
Also, I wanted to know what each subscriptions included as far as my question above is concerned?
I am trying to edit a scanned page (pdf file) by changing some words and erasing the background from the page that is showing through it since the paper is so thin and want to know which subscription to buy in order to complete these tasks?

This cannot be done in Reader. I think you will need software like Photoshop. You may be able to get buy with Photoshop Elements, but I haven't used recent versions of that software. Using either software this will not be an automated task.

Printing text and images together on a single page (printjob)

Hello all,
how am I able to print both text and images on the same page (defined by one printjob), using the javax.print API?
It seems that one printjob (one page) can have only one flavor, that is text, or GIF, or JPEG, etc. Since the majority of print jobs out there usually require text and graphics on the same sheet this seems a bit strange.
I have resorted on creating a PDF file through the iText library, and then printing by converting to GIF (quality is significantly reduced though, not an option), or by using the Acrobat Reader command line from java (looks dangerous for batch printing). My printer does not support printing directly using the PDF flavour.
So, I solved the problem by converting to PDF, but printing is still cumbersome. Any other ideas?
Thank you for your time,
Ari.

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I want to embed text AND image from same XML file

Hey,
I got following problem:
I want to put 1 image AND my text in 1 external XML file.
I can load either one of them in seperate XML files.
I need this because I want my content to be scrollable on my website and with this my image has to scroll with my text.
I got following AS3 put in now:
(ACTIONSCRIPT3.0)
//LOADING EXTERNAL XML & IMAGE//
var xml:XML;
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("externaltext/welkom_content.xml");
var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
urlLoader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.TEXT;
urlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, urlLoader_complete);
urlLoader.load(urlRequest);
function urlLoader_complete(evt:Event):void {
    xml = new XML(evt.target.data);
    welkom_content_text.text = xml.toXMLString();
//LOADING EXTERNAL PICTURES//
var xmlData:XML=new XML();
var pHeight:Number = 200;
var pWidth:Number = 200;
var listLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader( new URLRequest("externaltext/testxmlimage.xml") );
var picLoader:Loader = new Loader();
listLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, gotList);
function gotList(evt:Event):void {
   var xmlData:XML = XML(listLoader.data);
   var numImages:Number = xmlData.pix.length();
   var stImage:String = xmlData.image
picLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, gotPic);
picLoader.load( new URLRequest(stImage) );
listLoader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, gotList);
function gotPic(evt:Event):void {
var thisBmp:Bitmap = Bitmap(evt.target.content);
thisBmp.x = 0;
thisBmp.y = 0;
var thisWidth:Number = thisBmp.width;
var thisHeight:Number = thisBmp.height;
thisBmp.scaleX = pWidth/thisWidth;
thisBmp.scaleY = pHeight/thisHeight;
addChild(thisBmp);
picLoader.contentLoaderInfo.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, gotPic);
(/ACTIONSCRIPT3.0)
And my XML file for the text content is as following:
(XML TEXT FILE)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
.... ALL OF MY CONTENT
(/XML TEXT FILE)
And for my image the XML file is as following:
(XML IMAGE FILE)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<imagelist>
<image>externaltext/testpicxml.jpg</image>
</imagelist>
(/XML IMAGE FILE)
Does anyone know how to fix this and how to do it?
Thanks in advance!
Every help is appreciated!

Thanks!
And again... I'm doing some things wrong.. I feel dumb!
Trying to make a website in ASP.NET almost whole day, so my head isn't set to AS3 at all..
My code now to embed XML looks like:
var xml:XML = new XML();
var XMLURL:String = "externaltext/welkom_content_pic.xml";
var myXMLURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(XMLURL);
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(myXMLURL);
var page:Sprite = new Sprite();
myLoader.addEventListener("complete", urlLoader_complete);
function urlLoader_complete(evt:Event):void {
addChild( page );
page.addChild( welkom_title_text );
page.addChild( welkom_content_text );
page.addChild( welkom_image_holder );
xml = new XML(evt.target.data);
welkom_title_text.text = [email protected]();
welkom_content_text.text = xml.item.toString();
//use URLLoader to load the image from the path [email protected]()
Probably set some things wrong..
And what exactly do I have to set to load my image with it?
We were all a beginner once.. but I'm the uber annoying beginner I think... hehe
I probably won't be answering untill thursday, because I got a day off, so..
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aiuto Riproporzionare tutto in Indesign CS6! readjust text and images from (30x30)cm to (23x23)cm..without rewrite everything

Ciao a tutti!
Si dà il caso che io abbia impostato un'ottantina di pagine in formato 30cm x 30cm (quindi un quadrato leggermente più largo di un a4 in orizzontale!)...ebbene mi sono accorta che è troppo grande il formato per quel che devo fare...perciò se volessi trasformarlo in un quadrato 23cm x 23cm devo riproporzionare tutto!immagini e testo!..c'è un metodo veloce per farlo che non sia riscrivere ogni cosa?.... :((((
Grazie mille!
Hello to everyone! I set a custom page size of (30x30)cm but I made a mistake..now I need to format a page size of (23x23)cm and I have to readjust/proportion all the text and the images...Is there a simple way to do it without rewrite everything? like a command to proportion or something else? Please help me it's urgent! I don't know how to make it faster.....

@Lullu87 – of course you can modify the source of the PDF, your InDesign file, export again and update the links in the 23x23 cm sized InDesign file.
But we have alternatives for that workflow:
1. Place InDesign files instead of PDFs (yes, that is working!)
[RECOMMENDED]
2. Alternative Layouts with Liquid Layout Rule "Size" (CS6 and above)
[NOT SO RECOMMENDED]
What I like to rule out is the Alternative Layout feature with Liquid Layout rules for sizing the contents page wide.
There are some good reasons not using that feature:
a. If using align to baseline grid in your paragraph styles: The scaled text will align to the grid also on the scaled pages. And that's nothing you really want. Baseline Grid is a feature that is document wide and not restricted to single pages or sections like Alternate Layouts.
b. IDML problems with the option "Scale" for pages, if you are using single-sided documents.
Details on that here:
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1477817
3. Using a ExtendScript(JavaScript) to scale the contents (without beeing hit by the baseline grid issue)
[HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL – SOME RISK INVOLVED]
Just for the sake of completeness what you are able to do, not recommended for every case and highly experimental. Read the disclaimer there. And do not try it on your original document but on a saved copy!

Before using it you have to change the margins, after using it you have to change the page sizes with the Pages Tool for achieving what you want.

Can't copy text or images from webpages and paste into word documents or notepad

Today suddenly I cannot copy text or images from webpages (I tried many different ones) and paste into my word 2010 document or notepad. What can I do to get this ability back. Yesterday it worked fine. It does not appear to be a problem with word or notepad so I have to assume it is a problem with Firefox

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

When I print a webpage from FF how can I make the text and images bigger?

I am trying to print an eticket for a flight. The text on the schedule comes out too small and the UPC symbol's black lines look ganged together. I know I can view it zoomed up, but how do I make the text and images stay zoomed so they will print out that way?

I upgraded but the problem remains. At least with Firefox I do have the option to print a selection even if it mangles the top and bottom lines. With Safari or Chrome I have no option to print a selection. At the moment the only way to get a complete copy of the selection is to copy to openoffice etc and print from there.

How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?

How can I cut and paste from a webpage to a Word document without the document taking me to the web address when I click on a word in the document?

You are trying to copy a link, it is most likely in a different color such as the words "Microsoft's own forums" in his post. In Word highlight the word or words, control click on them, select Hyperlink, then Edit Hyperlink, then delete the link from the top box. It will then have a button asking if you want to "Remove Link", click on it.

How do I copy text and objects from pages to and paste into Email, objects don't show in Email

Anyone know how I copy text and objects from pages and paste into Email, objects don't show in Email, thanks

You can't expect Mail to support all the objects of Pages which can include anything up to charts generated from spreadsheet tables.
Even if Mail was a superset of Pages, what would the recipients who don't have either Mail or Pages, make of it?

How to extract text and image information from postscript file

I want to write a programe,and extract text and image information from postscript file using Java.Is it possible? How to extract ?
Thank!

First of all, PostScript is not a "text" file. It can and often does contain binary data. Since PostScript streams often contain nested procedures, unless you process the procedure definitions and can "execute" them, you cannot simply "scan" a file to get what you want. No, I can't talk about this in detail since it is quite complex. But Adobe does have the
PostScript Language Reference Manual on-line for download at
. Look that over and you will have a fairly healthy respect as to the task involved.

Reading text and charachters from image

Hi,
Is there anyone that could share code to extract/collect text from images? I've tried nConvert and gocr but its not working very well (also its external programs). I would be extremley grateful if someone could share som code to parse the texts and numbers from an image.
Thanks in advance!
BR

To answer your question - I'm teaching myself java and I haven't covered enumeration classes yet.
With the setGender("Q") scenario, the data in the text file has already been validated by other methods before being written to the file. Anyway I worked out my problems were caused by "input = read.readLine()" being in the wrong places. The code below works fine though I've left out the set and get methods for the time being.
Chris
public static void readFile()throws IOException{
String name = "";
String gender = "";
int age = 0;
BufferedReader read = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("myfile.txt"));
String input = read.readLine();
while(input != null){
name = input;
input = read.readLine();
gender = input;
input = read.readLine();
age = Integer.parseInt(input);
input = read.readLine();
System.out.println("Name: " + name + " Gender: " + gender + " Age: " + age);
read.close();

How can I transfer text and format from a Word Doc to a new Pages Doc?

How can I transfer text and format from a Word Doc to a new Pages Doc?

Select, and Copy in the Word doc and Paste in the Pages doc. It may not be perfect. Importing (Opening) the Word doc is probably better than using Copy/Paste for large amounts of content.

Aligning text and images in a StyledDocument like 'middle' on img in HTML

Hi,
I have a StyledDocument which is a document source for a JTextArea, into which I am inserting combinations of 22x22 images and text strings. This is just a nitpick, and I am hoping someone could assist.
What I would like to do is middle-align the text and images, so that the strings are vertically centered with the images.
You can reproduce this as such:
messagePane = new JTextPane();
messagePane.setMargin( Constants.smallInset );
doc = (StyledDocument)messagePane.getDocument();
Style style;
style = doc.addStyle( "normal", null );
StyleConstants.setForeground( style, Color.BLACK );
StyleConstants.setFontFamily( style, "Verdana" );
StyleConstants.setFontSize( style, 12 );
style = doc.addStyle( "image", null );
StyleConstants.setIcon( style, new ImageIcon( someimageofyourchoice ) );
doc.insertString( doc.getLength(), " ", doc.getStyle( "image" ) );
doc.insertString( doc.getLength(), "some misaligned text", doc.getStyle( "normal" ) );Thanks in advance!
Alex

code correction:
top block:
messagePane = new JTextPane();
messagePane.setMargin( Constants.smallInset );
StyledDocument doc = (StyledDocument)messagePane.getDocument();cut + paste from several separate components...

I am trying to convert an Illustrator cs6 file to a PDF and every time I do it, I lose all text and images. Can someone provide some assistance? Thank you!

I am trying to convert an Illustrator cs6 file to a PDF and every time I do it, I lose all text and images. Can someone provide some assistance? Thank you!

It's always a good idea to supply platform and AI version info.
How are you "converting" the file? Are you choosing "Save As" and selecting PDF from the file format options? This will bring up additional save options. I would suggest "Illustrator Default" setting unless you have specific needs.
