PUB2ID - Open MS Publisher files directly in InDesign...

Just saw that Markzware came out with PUB2ID to open MS Publisher files directly in InDesign straight from the Mac without having to do anything on a PC. AWESOME!

Ahh.. well.. I just saw it today =)
Glad it works pretty well. I'm mainly interested in being able to edit the documents and get all the RGB crap out of the documents.. thats one of the main issues we have. That and being able to color sep stuff. I usually take Publisher files, put them on the PC, print to PDF and send to the Mac for setup in InDesign.. but then.. if they want something changed before we print, I cant just do that in ID obviously.. I have to go back to the PC, edit the file (if I can.. since I dont know jack squat about Publisher) and re-PDF and send back to the Mac...
And yea.. I havent been around for a while. I'm doing fine. Just never really had much to talk about regarding InDesign.. my only real issue right now is that I cant upgrade to 10.5 until they fix ID =( That sucks a major one.

  • I can't open a jpg file directly from an Outlook email attachment into Photoshop CC.

    When I try to open a jpg file directly from an Outlook email attachment into Photoshop CC I get this error message " Photyoshop CC.exe - Entry Point not found" with this string:

    I don't think I have ever been able to open an image directly from Outlook into Photoshop.  What you can do, is drag from outlook to desktop, and then from desktop into Photoshop.  Or, if seeing the windows at the same time is a problem, drag onto desktop, then minimise everything, and drag onto the Photoshop icon (if you have a Photoshop shortcut on your desktop).

  • Safari opening linked .zip files directly from DVD instead of downloading

    Dear all,
    Safari opening linked .zip files directly from DVD (via Windows explorer) instead of downloading it tru browser click - it's working just fine in FF, Chrome IE. Is this a known issue? or something can be done by modifying browser setting/pref.
    Expecting more advise on this.
    Configurations: Windows XP
    Safari: 5.1.7
    Note: ensured there is no space in the file path, just linked the .zip file using href attribute!
    Also tried with .xls, .doc insted of .zip same issue appearing.
    Thanks in advance,

    Hi
    appzapper & such are pretty flaky at removing things usefully, imo.
    Use the uninstaller for speed download - http://www.yazsoft.com/products/speed-download/faqs/?how-to-un-install-speed-dow nload-properly
    or get a hold of FindAnyFile or easyfind & search for Growl & Speeddownload & yazsoft - but from all I hear, the uninstaller works fine.
    Failing that, Safari's settings plist file isn't in caches
    Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.safari.plist
    is the place
    & if you're still stuck, test & maybe download another browser using a New User Account.

  • How do I open a docx file extention with InDesign CC 2.01?

    How do I open a docx file extension with InDesign CC 2.01?

    And for that matter, there is no such beast as “InDesign CC 2.01.” What is referred to as InDesign CC is actually InDesign 9.x and what is referred to as InDesign CC 2014 is actually InDesign 10.x.

  • Opening Microsoft Publisher file in Mac

    Does anyone know of a way to open a Publisher file on a Mac. My son started a school project in publisher -- he needs to complete the project now as a home assignment. I guess they think everyone works with windows -- Ha.
    Any thought?
    Carl

    Another course of action to take is to save out the .pub file into a .doc file to take home and work on then rehash the .doc file back into a .pub file. But that just seems to much to be had.
    I thought that OpenOffice.org would open publisher files but then after the air cleared from the brain **** I had, it was Powerpoint files, hey, they both start with the letter 'P'. Publisher, Powerpoint, Presentation. LOL.
    Nonetheless, converting .pub to .doc, working on .doc, then converting back to .pub is a way to go at this point, but that would be tripling the work, eh?

  • How can I open a sequence file directly

    I use a changed CVI Operator Interface (TestStand 3.1) and I will open a sequence file directly and NOT via 'File -> Open Sequence file...'.
    The reason is, I have a lot of sequences in the same directory and I prepared an extra menu item to select a sequence file in a UUT related tree. After I have selected the sequence file I will open this sequence file but I d'ont how to do it.
    Best regards Jef,

    Hi Jef,
    1. create a link to your CVI "Operator Interface (TestStand 3.1) .exe" in your personal 'sendTo' directory
        or in the 'Default User' environment.
    2. to avoid multiple windows of your application add the following expression to the link:   /useexisting "%1"
    3. now you can use the right mouse click on a sequence file to use the 'sendTo' option for it
    Regards,
    Sunny

  • Excel 2013 (office 365) crashes every time I opened a excel file directly from Browser or zip file.

    Hi guys,
    I got a problem with my Office 365 that every time I open an office file from IE/chrome browser (i.e. click the document link and save the file to local, open it in the browser after download completed) or under a zip file, no matter it is an excel file
    or word document, the Excel/Word crashes. The Excel/Word will ask me to repair the file if I open the file again. The file will be closed automatically after the repair, when I open the file again it will told me the excel/word itself has just successfully
    registered and ask me to close and re-open the excel again in order to enable editing the file. This is extremely inconvenience, I have to open this file 4 times to edit my file. 
    Could anyone here can help me to resolve the problem?
    Many thanks.

    Hi,
    According to your description, Excel seems not crash when you opened a local Excel/Word file directly. Where do you store these file? OneDrive, SharePoint or other?
    If possible, please let me see the screenshot of the error dialog.
    Moreover, please open Event Viewer to check whether there's any error about the Excel/Word crash issue.
    Press Win + R, type "eventvwr" in the blank box, press Enter. In the Event Viewer, browse to Windows Logs -> Application, there may be some errors after the crash.
    To protect your privacy, you may send the error logs to
    [email protected], we will try to find the cause.

  • Cannot open MS Office files directly from network

    Hi all,
    I'm having trouble opening Microsoft Office files off of a network drive. 
    When opened, the application jumps straight into the template page (attached screenshot).
    I can copy files onto my local machine and open them no problem, however if I have an existing file open (from the local machine) and subsequently try to open a network file, the local file is closed and the template page replaces it. 
    The same symptoms occur when attempting a "Save As" to the network.
    This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

    I've tried replacing the office plugin file NPOFF12.DLL from a working system to the bad system, and it didnt help. I got that by doing typing about:plugins in the address bar. This person can open PDF documents, it's just Office files that dont open. I get no prompt to do anything. I have seen threads about headers on the webpages, but I'm not sure if its applicable. I tried from OWA and it does the same thing; nothing.

  • Can I open MS Publisher files

    Are there any apps in Staroffice that can open my MS Publisher 2000 files I have saved?
    Thanks!

    If you want to switch from PC to Apple I recommend a programm like Parallels.
    It has a tool (believe its called transporter) which runs on your current PC and creates a file (big) which is a "virual machine". It is a 1:1 copy of your PC which will run under parallels on your iMac.
    You will be running your "old" PC as it was under MAC OS X while you run MAC applikations etc at the same time.
    This is how I made the transition to Apple.

  • Open an Exported File directly in Photoshop (after exported file created)

    var doc = app.activeDocument;
    var destFolder = Folder ("~/Documents");
    if (destFolder) {
         var fileName = activeDocument.name;
        var destFile = new File(destFolder + '/' + fileName);   
        var psdExportOptions = new ExportOptionsPhotoshop();
        // Set PSD export options
        psdExportOptions.saveMultipleArtboards = true;
        psdExportOptions.artboardRange = "1";
        psdExportOptions.antiAliasing = false;
        psdExportOptions.resolution = 300;
        psdExportOptions.embedICCProfile = false;
        psdExportOptions.writeLayers = false;
        psdExportOptions.imageColorSpace = ImageColorSpace.CMYK;
        doc.exportFile (destFile, ExportType.PHOTOSHOP, psdExportOptions);
    This code I created exports my current Ai document as a PSD with set options. It also names the new file what it is called in Ai.
    How can I call the created file and open it directly in Photoshop? Keep in mind I would be working on multiple files, so file names would change every time I ran this Export Script.
    I could call a specifically named file and open that, but that's not what I need this script to do. I just need it to open the newly created PSD file. Any help would be greatly apreciated!!!

    Hi Mark,
    BridgeTalk or for simple commands like this, Interapp communication (Cross-DOM)
    use photoshop.open(fileObject);
    before that you need to build your newly exported file object
         doc.exportFile (destFile, ExportType.PHOTOSHOP, psdExportOptions);
    var psfile = new File(destFolder + '/' + fileName.split('.')[0] + '-01.psd');
    if (psfile.exists) {
         //alert('file exists')
        photoshop.open(psfile);
    else
        alert('file does not exist');

  • URLs created in Click Boxes won't open in published file

    Hi -
    I have a series of click boxes in several modules that point to URLs.  The links don't work in the published module, but work fine in preview mode (both preview and preview in browser).  What can cause the links to not open?
    I hear a click sound when I click on the link box, but no window appears.  I've tried all the possible settings for the click box.  I've ensured there is no pop-up blocker turned on.  I have also checked the flash player settings to confirm they are not blocking the links.  I have the same problem in IE7 and Firefox.   I have had five others test this module and the links work for three of them.  I am running Captivate 4 on Windows XP Professional.
    What do I have to do to ensure that my links work for everyone?   These are training modules that are to be distributed to hundreds of users.  I've not run into this issue with Captivate before, and this is the 8th training I've created with it.
    Thank you.
