Problems with tables in InDesign CS4

Since recently upgrading to CS4, I’ve been having issues with editing strokes in tables. The problem occurs after working on a table for a while-- where at first I’m able to edit stroke color and weight fine, but then after a period of time it becomes buggy and I’m no longer able to make further edits to the column/row strokes, such as not being able to set the stroke color to none. The only partial work around I’ve found is to quit InDesign and re-launch, then reopen the document, at which point I can then edit the table strokes—but only for awhile until the problem begins again and I have to repeat the process of quitting and restarting. I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar issue and might know of a fix (or better work around), or if it’s a known bug in CS4. I never remember this happening with table editing in CS3. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm not fond of tables. Never been able to make table styles work correctly.
My method for dealing with strokes is to selct the cell(s) and use the proxy in the control panel to set the stroke or strokes I want to edit, then change the attirbutes. I find sometimes I need to change the weight, other times the stroke type or even sometimes both. If you've applied a troke to one cell that is shared with another, then go to the other cell, I find you have to explicitly choose that stroke again to modify it.

Do you have hindi fonts for InDesign CS4 and if so how much are they?

Do you have hindi fonts for InDesign CS4 and if so how much are they?

Adobe does offer a few Unicode fonts that support Hindi I'd expect that you'd be asking for Devanagari fonts, though. Have you ever done any Hindi typesetting? I mean, when we typeset English we don't do it in "English fonts" but in "Latin-script fonts."
There are two main classes of Devanagari fonts - the more common, older fonts where someone took a Latin-script font, erased the characters, and replaced them with Devanagari glyphs, versus contemporary Unicode fonts. The first class are wonky, hard to use, and quite common. If you're in-country you will find lots of ways to buy those kinds of fonts. You also can use them in InDesign without needing any scripts or plugins to turn on the World-Ready Composer. I find Unicode fonts to be much easier to use, to automatically compose according to proper rules regarding behavior of glyphs - but to use them in CS4, you'd need something like World Tools or IndicPlus. I'm a World Tools user myself but if you're going to be doing only Hindi work in CS4, I'd suggest that you look at IndicPlus first.
In short - it's deeper than it looks. If you want to tell us more about what you're trying to do, we might be able to give you better advice.

Problem with font size, not showing up as expected.

I've been wrestling with this for a few weeks now, but surely must be getting closer to having it resolved. It's just a problem with font size on just this one page.
http://www.kgngroup.net/logos_and_packaging.html
I want the body text to be 10px, but after two weeks, have played with every conceivable way, altering body font size in CSS and in the document itself. I've viewing it in Safari but others on Windows machines tell me that it is out of whack also.
My main problem is that I can change the font size to extremes but it still shows up as the same size in the browser (about 12px.) I know changes can be made because I can modify the wording and that does change online. It's just a problem with the font size. Oh, and in the third column, the one to the right, in Dreamweaver, the font looks like it is miniscule, cannot even be read, but in the browser, since the style11 is applied, all three columns look equal size.
Not sure where to go from here. I just want to get the body font down to 10 pixels.
TIA,
Ken

What would really help you in diagnosing issues such as this is to install the Firebug add-in for Firefox (as suggested in the earlier thread).
Firebug shows you visually what CSS rules apply to whatever element you click on the screen.
In this case, you have a confusion of CSS font sizes cascading on top of each other and that's confused again by mixing units for no real reason. .style11 is unnecessarily applied to lots of individual <p> tags. Remove those classes and delete the rule.
e.g.
The tiny font in the RHS column is affected first by
.style8 {
font-size: 0.5em;
affecting the <td> then by
.style11 {font-size: 75%}
affecting the <p> tag.
End result = tiny text (approx 2px).
In these cases of mass confusion, my approach is to strip out all font sizing from the CSS and start over.
Avoid %. Use px.
Apply font sizing rules logically starting from the <body> tag downwards.
That'll give you a solid baseline without weird effects.
Ah, I find your answer worth repeating.
Very cool that you have diagnosed so well and spelled it out here.
I will get the Firefox add-on you mention, plus, print out this response and follow it like a recipe.
It makes perfect sense and you have saved me from the 'clutter' of being wound up in too many directions with this because I could not make all of the connections that you have done here. I appreciate your help very much.
Thank You,

Workflow 2.6.3.5 - Problems with font in OA

I have some problems with fonts in Oracle Workflow: i created a process in wf builder and a package that start the process..in the package i put a text body for the notifications with 'b' and '/b' but when i read the notification in workflow manager i cant see the bold font!! Anyone can help me?? I suppose that this problem is linked with HTML code that has to be set in some preferences menu, but i cant find it..but it may be another reason!
Another problem that i have is that i cant disable the history window in the notification (even adding to the message the attribute #HISTORY)..
THX for your help

1. I am unable to understand the first problem. Please note that if you want to display HTML formatted content, you will have to use one of the following options.
PLSQL Documents - 32K size limit
PLSQLCLOB Documents - CLOB
Embedded Fwk Regions - Only in Oracle Applications
If you are specifying HTML content within Item Attributes that you want to be eventually displayed in the notification the HTML tags could be decoded and displayed as is without formatting.
2. There is no documented way to disable the Default Action History within the notification body. You may define the Document type message attribute #HISTORY, assign a PLSQL Document API to it and return null from the Document code. This should hide the action history.
Hope this helps.

What is the problem with fonts changing to myriad pro? Is this problem ever going to be resolved? Its driving me mad!

What is the problem with fonts changing to myriad pro? Is this problem ever going to be resolved? Its driving me mad!

Browser Dog, Amy,
The default font remains Myriad Pro until you change it, either in the RGB/CMYK Startup files or in the preferences, options depending on versions.
Concerning missing font names, I believe this may solve it:
Open System Preferences and go to Accessibility. Next, select Display from the source list along the left, then check the box labelled Reduce transparency.

Problem with fonts display in safari and mail ???

hello !
sometimes i have problems with fonts display
safari use a mathematics font instead of my preferences fonts
i have to copy-paste in a text-editor to see the right font !!!
i have the same problems sometimes in mail
is anybody have infos about that problem ?
thanks !
p.s. mail version 1.3.11 - safari version 1.3.1

OS X cocoa apps like Safari and Mail don't like non-Unicode fonts using common names that replace Latin with symbols or other scripts. Helvetica Fractions and Times Phonetic are common culprits. You need to remove such fonts to solve the problem.

Problem with reinstalling Adobe Illustrator CS4 on new pc

Using a new PC with Windows 7. Upon reinstalling and inputting serial number, prompt appears..."We looked inthe default locations for qualifying products installed on this machine but none found. You may verify upgrade eligibility now by completing fields to the right." Choices given do not include Adobe Illustrator CS4. What next? I appreciate the help.

I have a disc in the same box that says CS3. I thought that was an older version. Should I try installing that disc first? It seems to have a different serial number. Thanks so much for your help. I appreciate it.

Creative Suite CS4: Problems with font managing software

It seems that there are some issues of the applications of the creative suite CS4 with the font managing software MainType (http://www.high-logic.com/maintype.html).
With standard settings, CS4 no longer recognizes PostScript Type 1 Fonts loaded by MainType (which did not occur with CS3 and older versions). The only solution so far is this workaround: Within MainType enable under "Tools -> Options" the option "Copy Type 1 Postscript fonts to Windows fonts folder" and CS4 will load these fonts again.
This seems to be a bug of CS4. Are there problems with other font managing programs?
regards
fabian

After reading tons of forums about this issue, it does seem to be an issue with CS4 not recognizing fonts the way that CS3 did. Wish they had mentioned that little feature when they released it. They even go as far as to say they do not support certain programs for type handling in Windows. Copying them to the system folder is a workaround, but it is not available easily in programs like Extensis' Suitcase, which is long overdue an upgrade. LinoType beta tested a new application for Windows, but when I sent an email to them asking about the release date for the their final version, their ignorant customer support sent me a link to their website pointing out that it is not yet available, and not answering my initial question of when.
I don't entirely blame Adobe, it seems as though a lot of companies have dropped the ball on this issue, and since many people have Type 1 fonts they've been using for years, they will have to repurchase (if available) those fonts in the newer OTF format which everyone seems to support. OTF is a much nicer format and more portable cross-platform, but it's simply inconvenient to not be able to use all of your fonts at your own discretion easily. I'm not sure what the big deal was with not including support for Type 1 fonts, unless that's most of the reason that the Adobe apps were crashing before... corrupt versions of the fonts they talked us into purchasing, etc... Adobe used to make ATM for managing postscript fonts, but it doesn't work on Vista to my knowledge. It would be nice if they would recommend a font manager other than the Windows system folder.
I figure Adobe was hoping that it would not be a major issue since their wonderful PDF format has taken hold for printing. Print shops do not have to install fonts before printing a piece anymore. Most people will read in these forums about the loss of support, throw up their hands and shake their heads, but do nothing about it. After all they too probably purchased the CS4 suite without knowing about this issue and have already spent their money. It doesn't look as though it's an issue on the Mac, but by the time you throw $3000 at an entry level Mac workstation and $1600 at the basic adobe apps, that's not a solution either. Especially when you have to go out and buy all new fonts anyhow, since the macs will not support the Windows postscript typeface formats either.
After doing a little price shopping for typefaces, I'm trying to try to keep using the few OTF and TTF fonts I've purchased since they're still working, since the prices of fonts these days are astronomical. I've installed a few fonts in the system folder, but too many and Acrobat distiller crashes. It's not cost effective to spend all of your income from design on $1600 font family sets, just to make changes to a document where you might have used a postscript face. Especially in this economy... It's another case of the investor getting rewarded for the release of an application and the customer is left holding the bag. Hopefully it's a bug, but not likely. It's probably some mandated decision by the higher ups in Adobe.
I'm sure larger companies with hundreds of employees probably have site licenses for typefaces in the OTF format, so for them it's not a problem, and since most people using PCs to do design opted for that platform because of the cost issue, Adobe probably doesn't care about them either. Maybe a solution will arise in the future, but it doesn't look likely. You will probably have to get the new formats of typefaces one by one.

Importing xml with xslt in InDesign CS4

Hello All,
i need someone's help who's an expert at xml and xslt features of InDesign CS4.
i work in publication, besides our magazines we produce yearbooks with lots of repetative information fields in them. we get the data in xml fromat which we flow in to InDesign. the xml files are very simple, here's an example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<Root>
<Story>
      <Country> Afganistan </Country>
<Company_ID>
   <Company_Name> Kam Air </Company_Name>
   <Company_Code> 1 </Company_Code>
   <Address_text> 1205 Qalla Fatuha </Address_text>
   <Address_text> P.O.Box 456 </Address_text>
   <Address_text> Kabul </Address_text>
   <Address_text> 22004 </Address_text>
   <Address_text> Afganistan </Address_text>
   <Telephone_text> Telephone: +93 20 2200 108 </Telephone_text>
   <Fax_text> Fax: +93 20 2200 110 </Fax_text>
   <Email_text> E-mail: [email protected] </Email_text>

   <Personel_text> Abdul Raquib, chief Executive <Personel_text>
   <Personelmail_text> ([email protected]) </Personelmail_text>
   <Job_code> A1 </Job_code>
</Company_ID>
     <Country> Albania </Country>
etc.
</Story>
</Root>
the problem is we don't want <Company_Code> and <Job_code> elements displayed in the InDesign file.
so we created an xslt file that shoud get rid of these two unwanted elements (obviously the xml file above was pointed to this xslt file)
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
<Root>
<Story>
<Country>
<xsl:for-each select="Company_ID">
   <Company_ID>
      <xsl:value-of select="Company_Name"/>
      <xsl:value-of select="Address"/>
      <xsl:value-of select="Telephone_text"/>
      <xsl:values-of select="Fax_tex"/>
      <xsl:value-of select=Email_text"/>
      <xsl:value-of select="Website_text"/>
      <xsl:value-of select="Personel_text"/>
      <xsl:value-of select="Pesronelmail_text"/>
   </Company_ID>
</xsl:for-each>
</Story>
</Root>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
but it doesn't work. could someone tell me what's wrong with the xslt file? or what would the correct xslt file look like?
Thanks everyone!

Here's the sort of thing I mean in more detail.
First, the XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>

Note that I have renamed the XSL file "transform2.xsl". I have got rid of the "Story" tag, and I have nested the tags more appropriately, with a new tag "Country_name". Here's the XSL:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">

<xsl:for-each select="/Root/Country">

(That file should be saved as "transform2.xsl" to match the link on line 2 of the XML.)
Hope that works -- Jeremy

Problems with open an Indesign-Document over Network

Please help me.

@Naga Sai J – you cannot open an InDesign CS4 file in the previous version.
But you can export an exchange file format for InDesign CS3.
Go to File/Export and chose INX for export: "InDesign CS3 Interchange-Format (INX)"
That .inx file could be opened with InDesign CS3.
After opening the .inx file, examine it well!
Some things might have changed (things regarding to newer or changed features from InDesign CS4).

Missing fonts in InDesign CS4 - even when 'open' in Suitcase Fusion 3

Hi all, I'm running InDesign CS4 on a Intel Mac Pro (tower), about 4 years old, running OSX Snow Leopard (all updates applied).
Using Suitcase Fusion V3 for font management.
I have a document that previously had no font issues at all. Now when I open it InDesign throws up a 'Missing font' error.
I have the correct fonts installed and 'open' in Suitcase Fusion.
The font is available in Simpletext and Pages, but not InDesign and Illustrator.
The troublesome font was OK the other day and has been since it was installed.
I've not changed anything that I'm aware of... but now InDesign won't 'see' the font.
In the 'Find Font' dialogue box the 'Path' says it's 'Unkown or missing'.
InDesign can see the other weights in the font family (bold, italic etc) but not regular. And yet the entire font family is in the same folder on my hard drive.
I've tried deleting all the' Adobe.lst' files. No Joy.
I've run Font Doctor on the whole font family, its says it's OK.
I've tried re-installing the font from a back-up. Nada.
If anyone has any suggestions..... feel free to let rip!
As ever, I await your expertise and unstinting knowledge in these matters And, needless to say, I'll be mighty appreciative for it!
RP

Hi Bob, strangely... I've put the troublesome font, Dax (T1) Regular, in the Applications/Adobe InDesign CS4/Fonts folder and it seems to be working.
Never had to do that before.
Would be great to get back to 'normal'. If possible.
Although I have many duplicates spread across back-up drives and collected artwork folders, I've also tried to eliminate any duplicate 'open' versions. But the above solution is the only one that works at the moment.
RP
p.s. I also tried removing any AdobeFNT**.lst files, (where ** is a number) before the above work around. That didn't work either.
