Preview doesn't show normal text

Hi!
Today I downloaded a .pdf file and when Preiview opened it the text was mostly consisting of squares. Images looked fine. I then opened the file in Abrobat Reader and it looks fine.
I have another pdf file from the same author that I downloaded last week and it is fine. Is the problem on my end or hers? What can I do on my "puter"?

Preview doesn't show up in the capture window

When trying to capture, the video preview doesn't show up in the capture window, only the color bars. I am able to run my transport with the buttons and the key commands, so I know the Canon ZR500 is really communicating (easy setup: DV-NTSC), via firewire. My scratch disk is a G-Raid hooked up through the firwire 800 input. The crazy thing is, it worked only one time. I've wasted one whole day and this morning, restarting, rebooting, unplugging, different tapes, etc. Next step is takew my entire setup to the so-called Genius Bart and see if Apple's Geniuses know anything about Apple software. Frustrating as ****. I will never buy Apple again.

Careful about editorializing. There are lots & lots of Mac users who are successfully capturing from Canon camcorders. I am one of them, and have never had a problem. So there is something in your setup that needs to be uncovered, it's not FCE or Canon per se.
One observation, you have a small hard drive (100GB) and even though you appear to have 59GB free, that's actually not a lot of space. One hour of DV consumes about 13GB and during capture the Mac temporarily needs nearly 2x that space, which means your system is using the 'inner' cylinders of the hard drive, where performance slows down; this could explain your dropped frames problem. Can you move some stuff off your system HD onto your G-RAID (say, your iPhoto and iTunes libraries if you are using those apps, they often take a lot of disk space)?

Template Preview Doesn't show images

I've created a template but when i go to create a new page
from the template the preview doesn't show the images.
Here's what i see
http://tel3deals.com/pics/contributeproblem.jpg
When i give it a name and open it it shows the page with the
images.
any idea why this is happening ?
Thanks.

THis is a real stab in the dark, but at the top of the "next column" there is a small grey arrowhead next to the word "preview" which, if clicked, will rotate to two different positions. One position shows a preview, the other rotated position does not show the preview.
Try clicking on the arrow.

PDF File in Preview doesn't show text fields, but OK in Adobe Acrobat

Someone emailed me a pdf document which I opened in Preview. All the the text fields where there was supposed to be data were blank.
I then opened in Acrobat and everything was there. Saved a copy from Acrobat and opened in Preview and the text was finally visible.
Anyone have a clue why this would be happening?
I'm running Leopard 10.5.1

We get these files from the vendor , he creates the file in Adode illustrator for us and he saves the f
ile in PDF format and sends them . He aslo advised he can open
the filre in acrodat pro version and the print pervi
ew is fine and he can print the file with out any issue.

ICal doesn't show all text for the activity

When I updated to iCal version 8.0 i noticed that when I am in week-view, iCal doesn't show all the text for an activity, although there is plenty of room. For example I have a lecture from 9 am - 4 pm and in the activity I put down all the things I have to do, but it only shows the first line for my activity. I need to drag the box or double click on it to see all the text. Can I change this?

Gabriella,
Sometimes making the Calendar window bigger, or using full screen allows additional text to be displayed.
View>"Make Text Smaller" is also an option for those with Eagle Eyes.

Preview doesn't show conditional fields in PDF document

A PDF document created with Adobe Acrobat has several radio buttons with a dropdown field conditional on each one. These dropdowns don't show in Preview, but do show in the Adobe reader. Any suggestions for the form developer?

Preview doesn't show images, while Acrobat does

I have a pdf file that has many images. on Preview, it only shows black outline where the image should be, but the image itself is blank.
but when I open the same document using Acrobat, the image appears.
any idea why this is happening?

THis is a real stab in the dark, but at the top of the "next column" there is a small grey arrowhead next to the word "preview" which, if clicked, will rotate to two different positions. One position shows a preview, the other rotated position does not show the preview.

Preview doesn't show 'open recent' items

When Preview is open, File-->Open Recent shows only 'clear recent'. Checking all different values for 'recent items' in System Preferences makes no difference in Preview. Some other apps work with 'Open Recent' (eg Pages) but not all (eg TextEdit behaves as Preview). Anybody see something similar, or know a fix? Thanks!

Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preview.LSSharedFileList.plist
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Show Info
from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
Does the dialog show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section?
In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?
What is the Modified date?
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.

Print Preview: SAP GUI showing updated text, CRM UI not showing updated text

Hello,
can anyone please help me with "Print Preview" button in CRM UI:
In the CRM UI when a certain data is changed on the document, a note on the document is updated with changes in data. When pressing the "Print Preview" button the generated PDF is not showing an updated text. If i run the SmartForm directly in SAP GUI after the data change, the generated PDF shows an updated text. If i reload the CRM UI (close the browser and run the CRM_UI transaction) the "Print Preview" shows an updated text.
What should i do, that the Print Preview in the CRM UI would also show an updated text (without reloading the CRM UI) ?
Im thinking it could be a problem with the parameters SFPDOCPARAMS and SFPOUTPUTPARAMS, that are used when calling the SmartForm FM. The parameters are set as this:
   ls_outputparams-nodialog = 'X'.
   ls_outputparams-getpdf = 'X'.
   ls_outputparams-connection = 'ADS'.
   CALL FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN'
     CHANGING
       ie_outputparams = ls_outputparams
     EXCEPTIONS
       cancel          = 1
       usage_error     = 2
       system_error    = 3
       internal_error = 4
       OTHERS          = 5.
   ls_docparams-country = 'SI'.
   ls_docparams-langu = sy-langu.
   CALL FUNCTION lv_name
     EXPORTING
       /1bcdwb/docparams = ls_docparams
       I_HEADER_GUID      = ls_orderadm_h_wrk-guid
     IMPORTING
       /1bcdwb/formoutput = ls_formoutput
     EXCEPTIONS
       usage_error        = 1
       system_error       = 2
       internal_error     = 3
       OTHERS             = 4.
SAP gurus, please help

I figured the solution:
In the Code Initialization of my interface (SFP transaction) i had to initialize the buffer:
   CALL FUNCTION 'INIT_LOAD_TEXT_BUFFER'
     EXPORTING
       EXCL_ID       = ls_stxh-tdid
       EXCL_LANGUAGE = ls_stxh-tdspras
       EXCL_NAME     = ls_stxh-tdname
       EXCL_OBJECT   = ls_stxh-tdobject
     EXCEPTIONS
       NOT_FOUND     = 1
       OTHERS        = 2.
This way the text is loaded from the updated note every time a "Print Preview" button is pressed.

WWI preview doesn't show phrases

Hello,
I created a template as Report-Template (SBE).I used symbols of idetifiers, labels and symbols of value assignment with phrases.
My problem is that in the WWI preview all the symbols with phrases are not shown. Value assignments and even labels (which is just a reference to a phase!?)
The mysterious thing is, that if I chose at the preview a language where there is no phrase for in the catalog I get a error that there is no phrase created in this language (which is correct). But in the correct language the preview just show blanks.
I'm sure that the problem is in relation to the language but I cant find it.
Thanks
Kind regards
Gerhard Faller

Hello Gerhard,
There are two things to be considered here:
1. The preview for the languages for which you get the message "phrase does not exist in the specified language" - here the said phrase must not be maintained in the languages concerned. To confirm the same, please go to t-code CG12 and check the phrase item is maintained in what all languages.
2. If the phrase text is being maintained in the preview language and then the output comes blank - then you need to check the rating / validity area of the value assignment types (which may be phrase enabled characteristics in the property tree) vis-a-vis the rating / validity area of the generation variant. Also check what is the "usage" maintained in the generation variant; this has to be in concurrence with the validity areas maintained for the value assignment types. For detailed information on its significance, press F1, or visit help documentation.

Pavan

Time off in print preview doesn't show

Hi,
I'm working in Project 2010 on a Windows 7 machine.
In the Gantt-diagram the time off (saterday and sunday) is shown.
However, it doesn't in the print preview neather on the print itself. Te free time is just as blank as the rest of the week.
I use project a lot but never had this problem.
Even when I copiet the rows to another project where I didn't have the problem, the problem also moved to that project..
Hope anybody can help me with this problem.

Have you compressed the print so you are not showing every day? Check File > Print and click the Page setup hyperlink. On the Page tab does it show 100% ?

Scrollbar doesn't show all text in RichEditableText component ...

The program is loading text from an external XML-file into a RichEditableText component.
However, scrolling an scrollbar does not show all the available text.
To me, it looks like the scrollbar is not updated to adopt itself to the new text.
Does someone has any pointers, how to fix this, because I have no clue where to look?
Thanks in advance,
Peter
Code snippets:
The bindable 'data' is filled with an html-formatted text, when the XML-file is loaded.
TextFlow is used to display the html-formatted text.
MyTextScrollPanel component contains VScrollBar and component MyTextScrollPanelScrollingContentSkin:
<s:VScrollBar id="vscrollbar" left="185" right="0" top="0" bottom="0" fixedThumbSize="true"
viewport="{contentGroup}" />
<components:MyTextScrollPanelScrollingContentSkin id="contentGroup" clipAndEnableScrolling="true"
left="0" right="20" top="0" bottom="0"/>
MyTextScrollPanelScrollingContentSkin component:
<fx:Script>
          <![CDATA[
          [Bindable] public var data:String;
          ]]>
</fx:Script>
<s:RichEditableText id="textContent" d:userLabel="Text" x="0" y="0" width="185" height="682"
                              editable="false" selectable="false" color="#ffffff"
                              fontFamily="Myriad Pro" fontSize="12" tabStops="S0 S50 S100 S150 S200"
                              textFlow="{TextConverter.importToFlow(data, TextConverter.TEXT_FIELD_HTML_FORMAT)}"
                              whiteSpaceCollapse="preserve" >
</s:RichEditableText>

One (practical) solution I came up myself, is adopting the height of the RichEditableText to the length of the data:
<s:RichEditableText id="textContent   ... height="{data.length}"      .... />
A practical height value turns out to be {data.length/2}, indicating that 50% of the text is html-tags and whitespaces (??)
Does someone knows or could point to a more elegant solution?
Note: the division "/2" worrows me, since the customer is proving the text.
Thanks,
Peter

Preview doesn't show some info shown by Acrobat Reader

I received a pdf attachment announcing a local job fair actually being run by Microsoft. It displayed in my mail message but they seemed to have omitted the date of the fair. I asked friends with Windows machines who had also received that mailing and attachment, and they said that the date is showing right at the top. So I detached the PDF, opened it in Adobe Reader 7.0.7 and the date was right there in big letters. Then I opened it in Preview, and the date was missing again (as were a couple of other lines). I checked, and the version of Preview I am running is 3.0.6, and it's obviously got a problem.

We get these files from the vendor , he creates the file in Adode illustrator for us and he saves the f
ile in PDF format and sends them . He aslo advised he can open
the filre in acrodat pro version and the print pervi
ew is fine and he can print the file with out any issue.

JPanel doesn't show new text after JLabel edit

Hello,
I am trying to create a custom progress bar-esk window to show users during lengthy methods.
I have a new Thread which creates and displays a new ProgressWindow object (a JFrame with a JPanel and JLabel attatched). At second intervals the text of the JLabel attatched to this frame will change. however the text seen in the window is not updated.
System.out's show the value of the JLable to be correctly changing.
Here is the code for creating the Thread and window:
     Runnable r = new Runnable() {
                    public void run() {
                        try {
                            prog = new ProgressWindow();//creates the frame
                            prog.addStuff();//adds the components
                            prog.addListeners(inter);
                           while(true){
                               prog.makeAnimation();
                        } catch (InterruptedException ex) {
                            ex.printStackTrace();
                        } catch (IOException ex) {
                            ex.printStackTrace();
               new Thread(r).start();and the code within the ProgressWindow class which updates the label
public void makeAnimation() throws InterruptedException, MalformedURLException {
        Thread.sleep(1000);
        if (dots == 0) {
            System.out.println("dots 0");
            labelPanel.remove(dotty);
            dotty = new JLabel("Analysing input ");
            labelPanel.add(dotty);
            labelPanel.repaint();
            dots++;
        } else if (dots == 1) {
            System.out.println("dots 1");
            labelPanel.remove(dotty);
            dotty = new JLabel("Analysing input .");
            labelPanel.add(dotty);
            labelPanel.repaint();
            dots++;
        } else if (dots == 2) {
            System.out.println("dots 2");
            labelPanel.remove(dotty);
            dotty = new JLabel("Analysing input ..");
            labelPanel.add(dotty);
            labelPanel.repaint();
            dots++;
        } else if (dots == 3) {
            System.out.println("dots 3");
            labelPanel.remove(dotty);
            dotty = new JLabel("Analysing input ...");
            labelPanel.add(dotty);
            labelPanel.repaint();
            dots = 0;
    }I assume this is a threading issue, however I don't understand why the value is correctly changing, but not being repainted. I'd appriciate any insight :)
thanks :)

..As for the SSCCE, I have looked at the linked site and honestly thought I had met the requirements. The code was formatted, and only the methods which presented the problem were given. Should I have included the code to create the window also?The first 'S' seems covered, but it is not SC, C or an E. Which part of the words associated with those letters are you having trouble understanding?
If you had copy/pasted your code into the STBC (as recommended in the SSCCE document), it would have been obvious that it was not an SSCCE.
Instead of being rebuked, I should be told what is missing from my post in order to create a SSCCE as i obviously dont know how to do it properly.You expect us to have a crystal ball? Instead of complaining, it would be more productive to be specific about what part of S-SC-C-E document you do not understand. And this time, read it carefully, don't skim it.
