S P R E A D type settings (created in FH, not editable in AI)

I am converting a batch of old maps from FreeHand to Illustrator, with spread type for the state names:  C  A  L  I  F  O  R  N  I  A
In FreeHand, letter spacing can be spread out by dragging the right edge of the type box, or numerically by typing a value in the type dialogue box, in the space marked "A\V ____% em value."  CALI...  is defalt;  you can go quite wide   C       A       L       I...  is about 500%
Having imported the maps into Illustrator, I am unable to adjust these labels to my desired spacing (the client is having me change the fonts, so spacing needs adjusting). I also find I am unable to make a type style where I can adjust the letterspacing by any useful amount.
In Illustrator's Character Styles dialogue box, A\V is for kerning individual letter pairs; it doesn't let me set anything on a series of letters; it says to "use tracking (A  V)." The tracking values for a typical, spread out state name is 100%. (Default for normal type is 0%). I can use the arrows to select from -100 to 200% or type in my own values within this range; hardly anything happens. The letters shift a little bit. Every so often I need to radically shrink the tracking or default to a "normal" tracking and restyle completely, but I'm stuck with the actual tracking being very wide on type brought into AI this way.
On a normal place name label (Golden Gate Bridge), the value for A V letterspacing is 0%, and choosing a value from -100% to 200% barely shifts the letter spacing either (certainly not as wide as my state names). Every so often I'd like to stretch a label much wider than it is; again, no can do.
I can find no other setting in Character or Paragraph styles that has any effect on letter spacing.
So it's as if there's some other letter-spacing setting that Adobe recognizes but won't let us get at.
Does anybody have any ideas?

Judy you are not thinking straight. This is not about how to do this 
in FreeHand this about how you would do it in Illustrator
character and paragraph styles are the way to go for a map.
If you do not see the logic to this then how does one communicate the 
reality of this, the question here is how to make this work for the OP 
in Illustrator the Op is moving on.
Once they have their paragraph styles set up they will they can change 
it lie crazy if they wish I one click and that would be the whole 
entire map.
It might be a little work at first but that is because the FH type 
engine does not allow for the kind of export that works well with 
other programs it was designed to work alone and illustrator was 
designed to work with layout programs
and the like.
And so you see it differently and your advice to the Op would be what 
don't move? or what?
I really think it is out of place that you are beating this poor dead 
horse, it is dead.
Help the OP move on.

  • Order type settings for  convert planned order to production order

    Dear sir,
    I have 1 company code ,under 2 virtual plants are there.My scenario is plant 1(main plant)and plant 2 (virtual plant)
    both plant same FERT material.in plant 2 i am creating sale order and atual production will be done in plant 1.
    FERT material plant 2(strategy-40 sp.procurement-40 setting in spro ref plant (plant1) )and  plant 1 material (strategy 82)

    .i have done settings in spro OPPE order type is given.in MD04 manual conversion planned order to production order system asking order type ,but i given order type in OPPE
    What are the settings for  production order directly from sale order at the time of RUNNING MD50
    Regards,
    Naresh.

    Hi,
    You will not get a production order out of MD50. That would have to be set up in the SD customizing for the sales order item, but I am not sure that would work with your two-plant setup.
    After MD50 you need to run CO41 for the collective conversion (and I also recommend the mentioned production scheduling profile customizing and then maintain this profile in the material master work scheduling view)

  • Document  type settings

    Hi,
    In the Document type settings for PO, there is one check box is Vendor.
    What is the purpose of vendor check box in the document type settings?
    Kindly explain
    Thanks
    Ravi

    You set the indicator. If a stock transport order or scheduling agreement is then created and a vendor is assigned to the supplying plant, the system
    adopts the data from the vendor master record (e.g. the currency, price determination indicator) and the info record (e.g. planned delivery time, order unit), and
    updates the statistics of the Logistics Information System with the vendor data.
    Normally this indicater used for Stock transport order document types e.g :UB document type.

  • MIME type settings for browser are IGNORED

    I have the following problem since Quicktime 7 Preview 2:
    Quicktime by default has many mime types associated which I don't want to be played by quicktime in my browser.
    For example .mp3
    So I deselected everything but Quicktime movies in the mime type associations.
    But no matter what I deselect there - Quicktime is stil playing everything in the browser.
    It seems that Quicktime conmpleteley ignores the mime type settings in the preferences and plays everything by default!
    What do I need to do to fix this?
    In versions 7 Preview 1 an lower these settings worked just fine.
    And as long as this isn't fixed I won't use Quicktime 7...

    The "hijacking" of files types and file extensions has been a part of every piece of software I can remember. Particularly with browsers and media files.
    Not all browsers use the same types of plug-in architecture and this may be what you're experiencing.
    It's been a long time since I fired up Internet Explorer on my Mac. Many browsers still use its style.
    On a Mac (maybe the same on a PC) Internet Explorer uses its own "File Helpers" for MIME types. These can be edited using its "preferences".
    Try changing the settings in IE. You'll find them under "helpers" (or something named like that).
    Because Microsoft has tried to put its own formats in "front" of viewers these obstacles will now be part of much of your online experience.
    User (viewers) do have most of the control. It's a shame that we have to fight just to get what we want in our online experience.

  • Content Type settings inside a sub-site are going to be ignored, and it will use the parent content type settings

    I have an enterprise site collection with the following content type settings inside the list content type (columns such as security, document type, etc as required):-
    Then I have created a new sub-site of type enterprise wiki, the default list content type for the subsite will look as follow which have the columns such as security, document type as optional :-
    But now if I went to the sub-site and I chose to create a new page, and i leave all the columns empty, then the system will raise an error that the columns such as; security, document type, etc are required. although inside the sub-site content type the
    columns are defined as optional. So seems that the wiki page inside the sub-site is referencing the parent content type and not its own sub-site content type.
    Can anyone advice on this please ?

    Hi John,
    I tested the same scenario per your post, however the columns retained the same settings in sub-site in the same content type.
    I recommend to verify the things below:
    Was the content type you used for creating the page the one created in the parent site?
    Did you create another content type in sub-site based on the one created in parent site? I recommend to click the column name to go inside the column settings and then check if the Optional is selected. If yes,
     change it and click OK, then change it back to Optional again to see if the issue still occurs.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

    1. no
    2. no. i did not create any content type. i have just create a new subsite of type enterprise wiki , and the content type settings will be same as the parent content type, which have all these columns set as optional. but seems these settings will be ignored
    as these columns will raise an error if i leave them empty. so seems that the subsite's library will use the same settings as its parent site collection library, which have these columns set as required...
    so i have the following , to make things clearer:-
    1. inside the site collection , the content type at the site collection level have these columns as optional.
    2. inside the site collection's library the  list content type copy, have these columns as required.
    3. on the subsite list content type copy, i have these columns as optional. but these columns on the subsite library will be treated as required columns ...

  • Default Sales Order type settings

    Where do I set the default Sales Order type for transaction VA01. trying to avoid employees choosing the wrong order type.
    Thank you.

    You can setup user parameter for parameter AAT
    Use transaction SU3 for every user
    Goto tab Parameters
    Add a line
        Parameter_ID: AAT
        Parameter value:  Your order type
    Save user profile
    Please note that this solution will not prevent user to change the value of field order type during VA01. However he will always get this as default value. You should do this for every user you need to have default value.

  • Follow-up posting flow type Credit for 870 does not exist

    Hi SAP,
    I am having a problem when try to recalculate cash flow in FO38. System popup error Message no. 62179 (Follow-up posting flow type Credit for 870 does not exist). The error details is like this:
    Diagnosis
    You have changed the data in such a way that follow-up postings have resulted.
    No follow-up posting flow type has been defined for Credit for the flow type 870. A proposed flow type for flow type 3NCH has not been defined either.
    System Response
    Processing cannot be continued without the flow type.
    Procedure
    Contact your system administrator.
    Procedure for the system administrator
    Check and correct the settings for the reference flow type for follow-up postings in Customizing as required.
    Is there any setting in configuration Txn SPRO should i do? Will give points for those who help me out this problem.
    TQ
    Regards,
    Nazrul

    Hi Nazrul,
    yes, there are reference flow types missing for follow-up postings. Follow-up postings are created if condition amounts have been changed and that affects already posted items in the cash flow. In this case follow-up postings are generated. For the follow-up postings the system uses special flow types that have to be maintained in customizing.
    SPRO - Real Estate - Conditions, Flow Types, Account Determination - Maintain Flow Types - Assign Reference Flow Types
    Relevant relationship keys are:
    2     IS-RE: Follow-up postings due to condition incr.
    32     IS-RE: Follow-up posting due to condition reduct.
    You have to assign reference flow types for these relationship keys.
    This should help.
    Regards, Franz

  • How to change the document type while creating a PO by ME59N

    Hi,
    I  have 2 groups of PR's, for group one the document type is picked as NB and PO is created and for the group 2 it should pick as XYZ and PO should be created using ME59N tcode.
    How to change the document type for group 2 in ME59N? Which user exists to use to change the document type while creating PO in ME59N? 
    Can any one suggest me.

    Hi,
    There a config area, where you can define default PO doc types for a particular Pr doc type. If you maintain the settings properly there, then your requirement can be fulfilled.
    SPRO->IMG->MM->Purchasing->Purchase requisation->Define doc types.
    This will serve your purpose.

    It is probably a JavaScript link.

  • Test Note (Documentation Type) when creating Test Plan

    Hi Gurus.
    After we upgraded our SolMan 7.0 system from Support Pack (ST component ) level 19 to level 25,  I noticed this new field "Test Note" (Dcoumentation Type) when creating a Test Plan in transaction STWB_2.
    Initially, when I haven't chosen any project yet, this field has a list-of-values (i.e. Test Case Note, iTutor Document) but when I choose a project, the list-of-values only showing "ST". I also tried choosing another project and there is no value in the list.
    Does anyone know where this list is coming from or how I can configure this?
    It looks like project-related and but I couldn't find any settings for this.
    Can this field be turned off so it will not show in the screen?
    Thanks,
    Tess

    Hi Tess,
    The documentation type ST is the standard documentation type for test notes.
    Test notes are needed by testers to document results in detail during/after testing a test case.
    In SOLAR_PROJECT_ADMIN  there is the text menu 'GOTO - Project Template - Implementation Projects'
    and then there to the tap 'Documentation Types' to do the default settings for 'ST' for all implementation projects.
    Otherwise you'll have to change settings in the administration for each project!
    There you can assign your own documentation template for ST in the central settings.
    If you are using other project types for testing you'll have to do the same for each project type.
    Regards,
    Adelbert
