Print/displays blank only in place of text (i.e. non printing font)

I have a need in which we need to substitute current text with spaces for a specific line in the document. As this line of text has a unique font and is used in hundreds of documents, Is there any font which can be substituted in place of current font to have just empty space getting printed in place of current glyphs?
All documents printing this text use the same font for this text. These documents are printed using a print processing software which allows to swap the font with another one using the mapping. So thought is to find a solution which allows to space out this text without having to extensively modify all documents. Though for this,a font would be needed which will not print the text but emulate it with blank pixels so that rest of the text of the document doesn't shifts it's relative positioning.
Adobe may have developed such a font though I am not able to find it on web site. Need your help.
Thanks

It would of course be possible, for each font ever made, to create a font with the same spacing and kerning but blanks in place of the glyph outlines. That would be a lot of additional fonts.
But that isn't really what you need. You just want this font to not print. Unless you have a colored background built into your document, that is easily done with search and replace. You just want to find everything formatted with this font, and replace it with the same font, but with the text color set to white. Problem solved. This technique will work in any application that allows you to set the color of text, and search and replace based on font, which includes Microsoft Word. (In the search dialog in Word you'd pick the "formatting" option.)
If however you are making PDFs, the text would be invisible but searchable, which might be a problem. However, that would be a problem even if you had a font with no glyph outlines.
Cheers,

  • How to display "Metadata Only" field in Update Form

    Hi,
    I have added the below configuration in Config.cfg file to make Primary File non mandatory,
    AllowPrimaryMetaFile=true
    suppressAlternateFile=true
    createPrimaryMetaFile=true
    After restarting the server it displayed "Metadata only" fileld upon selecting Primary File became non mandatory, but while updating the Content this field is not getting displayed, rather it is displaying Original File field and Primary File became mandatory.
    Could you please let me know how to make Primary File non mandatory (otherwise displaying "Metadata only") in Update form. Appreciate your help on this. Thank you.
    Thanks,
    Ashok

    Hi Srinath,
    Thank you for responding, here we need to make Primary File non mandatory by displaying "Metadata only" field. we achieved this in Check In form, we need the same in Update Form.
    From the Kyle blog, he specified that option to completely hide Primary File but our requirement is making non mandatory by introducing metadata only field.
    Thanks,

  • How to place standard text at the bottom of the last page

    Hi Gurus,
               I have a requirement to place a standard text at the bottom of the last page.Right now i am having 2 sub forms
              in a  body  page  in that one(header details) will not get overflow and only visible in the first page and the second
             body page( Item  details)   will get overflowed, till here it is working fine. Now i need to include terms and
             conditions details at the bottom of   the   last  page but i included the standard text in the context area
             and i don't know where to place that text in the layout . I tried with including
             a sub form in the master page and placed the text    in   the  bottom of that sub form but it gets repeated
              in bottom of each and every page and i tried by placing one more sub form   in the body page
               but the text is coming immediately after the item detail gets ended.I need only at the bottom of the
              page where the item details ends. Please make me to solve this problem.

    Hi,
       I gone through the link in that they set the footer part of the purchase order immediately next
      behind the body(Table) so after the table growth gets completed the footer gets displayed
      but in my case after the table growth ends it should display at the bottom of that page.For
      example if the table ends at the top of the second page ultimately the footer should be at the
      bottom of second page.If the table ends at the bottom of the first page and if the footer can't
      display the whole content in the bottom of the first page then the footer should move to the
      bottom of the second page.

  • How to display a percentage sign ( % ) after a text box in a screen

    hi experts,
    Can anybody tell me how to display a percentage sign ( % ) after a text box in a screen.

    Hi Ajay,
    Try to use the  [Position|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/EN/9f/dba7e235c111d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm] option of selection screen.
    By using this you can place the text as a comment at a desired position on the selection screen.
    The syntax would be like this :
    SELECTION-SCREEN POSITION <pos>.

  • Display of Hierarchy Nodes as Medium Text in Web Report

    Hello everyone,
    Does anybody know how to display the hierarchy nodes as medium text instead of short text (default) in web report?
    I know it is possible to change the display setting directly (by right clicking on hierarchy node > properties) from the web report.
    However, I would love to know if there is any other way to change the settings such as through Query designer or Hierarchy maintenance in SAP GUI so that users do not need to change the display settings every time they view the web report.
    Your help is kindly appreciated.

    Thank you Shabar for you quick reply.
    What if a Hierarchy is created under an InfoObject? How can I change the Text view of each name of the Hierarchy nodes?
    In Query Designer, I tried to change the Text View to Long but it only affects the text of the InfoObject but not the Hierarchy nodes.
    I tried the 2nd suggestion too.  I only can find the BEx description for the InfoObject but not the Hierarchy nodes.
    It would be great if anyone could tell me how to do so.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Slideshow-Images not displaying in the right place on the screen

    I am trying to use the SlideShow widget for the first time. I have a pretty basic slideshow with six images that I want to display. When I preview it in IE or Firefox,what I get is really weird. The first image displays in the right place.  The second displays in the right place, but with a black box underneath it. The third displays under where it's supposed to go, with a black box above it. After this, the images alternate between where they're supposed to be and just below that, with a black box of the same size in the second location. I've looked at the source of other webpages that have working slide shows, and I don't see a difference between what I'm doing and what they're doing. Here is what I think is the relevant code. Can anyone suggest a way to fix this?

    If you have a look at basic_fs.css, you will notice that the styles taget a class called BasicSlideShowFS.
    Yet when I look at the constructor, the class is missing as in
    var ImageSlideShow = new Spry.Widget.ImageSlideShow("#ImageSlideShow", {
        widgetID: "ImageSlideShow",
        widgetClass: "BasicSlideShowFS",
        injectionType: "replace",
        autoPlay: true,
    Because you are not using the thumbnails (filmstrip), I am wondering why you did not implement the basic slideshow, which will make it a lot easier for you.

    How can I copy and paste a pdf onto my Mavericks Clipboard. I only see word-wrapped text.

    Yes, Thank you for using the term Place. You moved my focus off the clipboard, and Place set me back on course. Somewhere, the terms Copy and Paste need to be tagged to Place and Export. I'm a database designer who only uses Illustrator for forms the database fills. My need isn't yet met, but the rest should come with reading the right references. Thanks Larry!

  • My nokia N-70 Music Edition Screen displayed blank...

    Hi
    nokia N-70 Music Edition Screen displayed blank after few hours.After Removing battery,put again & start it becomes ok for few hours.I have already updated the Software Nokia N-70 but no advantage.
    Wht should i do?

    strange enough some of the pre-installed apps on the N70 are on the memory card and not the phone memory. which means formatting the memory card will remove everything. it's difficult to get everything back but try these :
    1- try to find what you need on the n70 support page
    http://europe.nokia.com/A4144775
    check phone software.
    2- if you have the download app installed on your phone , run it and check for the app there.if not check the nokia download store. http://www.download.nokia.com/
    3- if your mamory card is not the original provided with the phone, locate your old memory card. using a computer copy and paste the following folders from the old original one to the new one:
    * resource
    * sys
    * private (copy the subdirectories only and not the whole folder)
    4- if something is still missing after all this, i guess it's gone for good
    Fear not those who argue but those who dodge

  • XL Reporter Do Not Display Blank Records

    hey all,
    I've built a standard P&L Budget report in XL Reporter with parameters for each segment of the account code as made possible by patch 02.  However, when I uncheck "Do not display blank records," the generated report lists an instance of each account for each segment that I've chosen in the parameters.
    The selections for the account segmentation don't seem to filter the accounts themselves, instead they filter the balances of each account.  Does anyone know why it only filter's the balances rather than the accounts themselves and ends up repeating the accounts for each segment selected?  Is this a bug?
    thanks in advance!

    Hi Kevin,
    Seems that noone in this forum can answer your question. Maybe this is related to the fact that the main focus here is the SAP Business One SDK?
    In case the question is still open:
    I would recommend that you try these forums - which should fit better:
    For SAP partners only there's a forum where you can discuss implementation questions etc.:
    Got a question about customization / implementation? Maybe ask it in CPSN!
    ...and here's the SAP Business One Forum in the "SAP Community" (public to anybody):
    Re: Got a question about customization / implementation? Maybe ask it in CPSN!
    ...or you might try your luck with SAP Support?
    Bugs should anyway be reported to SAP Support!

    It sounds like Firefox is, for some reason, not loading the CSS file for YouTube and other sites.
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.

    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
