Scaling reflows text (even though scale effects/strokes is on)

I am trying to make PDFs that are 25% scale of actual size, by scaling the .ai layout priro to saving as to .pdf. Don't have the PDF writere instaleld at thsi job, so can't use that to scael PDFs. The text reflows and looks horrible afterwards. The fonts are Proxima Sans , and this is CS4 Mac.
Before
After 25% scale (zoomed in)
Is there a minimum fonts size limit, we are at 3.15 pt on small copy. The TMs are touching and kerning is whacked out. Tried removing optical kerning, and that is not the problem.

Thanks, for the information. I hope this is related to the font as I never noticed this before.
The cleient chanegd their mind abotu needeing PDFs at 25%, so got thsi job dopne.
PDFs file size gets large on document with large page sizes. Anyone find a better method to scale PDFs than:
Opening PDFs in Illustrator and scaling (efects liek gaussian blur dont scale)
Printing to PDF writer and using fit to page size (Hard to contorl exact siz, and thsi has bitmapped type for me in the past)

  • I can't save previous word files I have into iWork's, I have dropped the file into pages, but it says it can't convert text, even though I have changed a selective fond from pages

    I can't save previous word files I have into iWork's, I have dropped the file into pages, but it says it can't convert text, even though I have changed a selective fond from pages! Help!

    Take us through this in more detail.
    What is the Word file? From a PC?
    What version of Word and what is the file extension?
    What is it about the text that is different?
    When you say fond do you mean font/typeface? If so what font, and is it on your Mac? Is there something special/different about this font?

  • When I send a text message to my friends Trac phone, my iphone 4s sends two text(even though I am under my 160 count).  He said that it sends one full text and a second with just one word.

  • My phone is not notifying me of a call or text even though the sound is on - help - I am missing so many calls and texts

    Help my i phone has stopped ringing and my texts do not alert me, even though the alert sounds are on and everything is on!!!!!

    Make sure you do not have "Do Not Disturb" enabled.  If you see a cresent moon icon up near the battery meter, then you have turned DND on,  just turn it back off.

  • My iPhone no longer alerts me when I have texts, even though all my notifications and sounds are on. Can I fix this?

    My phone no longer chimes when I have a new text message. Or, alternatively, it will chime when I unlock it, even if I received the message hours ago, but won't alert me when I actually receive the message for the first time. My software is updated, and all my notification sounds and alerts are on. Often it registers that there's a text message (there will be a red circle above the app), but the notification never pops up. If I do immediately get an alert, it doesn't complete the chime and my phone flashes but immediately shuts off. Is there some way that I can fix this?

    Sorry to know that.. 
    After backing-up your data try a Factory Restore. also check whether the phone Firmware upto date ? You may check using the Nokia Suite .. If not you may update that or if already with the latest Firmware re-install the Firmware and try again ..

  • I was called from another i-phone and never received the call on my I-phone, texted also, from the same phone and never received the text, even though the sender sees a confirmation on the origin side saying 'message has been delivered.'  Seriously, help!

    please help me resolve this issue

    Thank you.  The troubleshooting guide online suggest resetting network settings and I did a restore to factory default.  Since then I was able to receive another text message from the sender and it worked fine.  He also left a voice mail message (several) and I'm not able to retrieve those either.  Thank you so much for responding.

  • Washington Post articles and opinions do not display the body of the text even though the rest of the page displays correctly.

    Washington Post articles and opinions that are clicked on in my email, no longer display the text of the article or opinion. This is a recent development and may be caused by a Firefox upgrade as I did not previously have this problem. The problem does not exist for Internet Explorer. The webpage displays the top part of the page and the links and advertisements on the right side of the page but shows only "white space" where the article or opinion text would regularly be displayed. No error or problem message is displayed. A page refresh does not correct the problem. I am using an IBM ThinkPad laptop running Windows XP with all updates installed and Mozilla Firefox with all updates installed. HELP!???!!

    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    (You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these. While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    Some sites now try to detect ad blockers and may be sensitive to other add-ons... A standard diagnostic to bypass potential interference by extensions (and some custom settings) is to try Firefox's Safe Mode.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [[Backing up your information]]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, restart Firefox in Firefox's Safe Mode ([[Safe Mode]]) using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode."
    If the site works correctly, this points to one of your extensions or custom settings as the problem.
    Any change?

  • My incoming emailes default to plain text even though view-message body as-originalHTML is checked

    Most (not all) of my incoming emails (in particular from one main client's employees) always come in plain text, I want to be able to view all message in HTML format and reply in html format (this is generally fine fr my response, but the trail leaves all their comments in plain text).
    I have view-message body as-originalHTML as ticked. Stil doesn't work. I run Thunderbird 24.4.0 on Mac 10.7.5. My server is gmail
    FYI, In account settings I have ticked the box 'compose messages in HTML format". Not that that is relevant..

    The email client they are using is relevant, and are you sure your getting HTML in the emails (ctrl+U will show message source)
    The normal arrangement is if Plain text and HTML are sent they are Plain text, followed by HTML. But having both like that is not a problem.

  • My iPhone doesn't make a sound when I receive a text, even though it's on loud.

    When a message comes through on my iPhone it doesn't give and text tone to say it has arrived. It will show it on the screen as normal when the home button is pressed. I have checked my handset is not on mute and the volume is full. It is not set to vibrate in any way. How can I fix this?

    Is the silent switch on?

  • Got charged for going over in Texts even though I only used 3000/5000

    At the end of last month, I started texting a lot more than normal.  Knowing that I had the 500 text plan I figured it would be a good idea to bump it up to the 5000 text plan on 7/31 figuring that they would just charge the extra $10 to my bill and I would be OK since when I got this phone the sales lady said that if I noticed that I was going to exceed the limit I could just change to the higher plans whenever I want.
    Turns out that while I can switch to the new plan, instead of charging me $10 more they refunded me $2.90, from the 500 text plan, and charged me $5.80 for the new plan at a Pro-rated price.  Normally this would be OK but when I looked at the bill it went from normally $90-100 for the 700 Family Share Plan with 500 texts on the main line and an extra line to around $225.  They had, by Pro-rating both the return and the new plan, caused me to go over in texts adding an additional $91 to my account.
    Since they Pro-rated the 500 text plan via the return and still applied that texting limit through 7/30 I was given 371 texts for that period which I ended up using 623, going over by 252 charging me $25.20. Also with the pro-rated 5000 text plan I was given 1452 used 2110 going over by 658 charging me $65.80 for a total of $91 in charges that should have been $10 for the upgrade for the entire month from 500 to 5000 texts.
    I have emailed Verizon and in a few minutes I am planning on calling and filing a complaint to try and get this rectified, any ideas would be helpful.

    In the future, either change your plan on the date that your billing cycle begins or call into CS and ask them to either A) schedule the change for the first day of your billing cycle or B) backdate the plan to the start of the current billing cycle.  Those are the only methods to avoid pro-rated charges.  If you complain, Verizon may refund up to 50% of the overages you incurred, but since you made the plan change without asking for backdating, you agreed to the pro-rating.  There's really not a whole lot Verizon is going to do for you.

  • Seeing replies to other persons group text even though group messaging is off

    I have an iPhone 4s with iOS 6.1.2.  When my daughter's coach sends a text message from his iphone to the whole team, I can see the replies of those people who also have iphones. Now I can't text coach without everyone seeing the text.  I have group messaging turned off.

    That's how imessage works on the iphone.
    If you want to reply to just the coach, then create a new imessage just to him.

  • Hi, since doing the latest update my phone makes a strange noise everytime i send or recieve a text even when there is no text tone set?

    hi, since updating my iphone 3gs with latest software it makes a noise when sending/recieving texts even though there is no text tone selected

    Hi Thisslowgt,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone making unexpected sound signals, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • Scale and Stroke Effects

    I'm trying to manipulate my stroke and see the option for
    AI > Preferences > General > Scale and Stroke Effects
    though after checking it, it does not seem to change anything. What does it do?
    Thanks.

    Read it again.
    The preference is not Scale and Stroke Effects. It's Scale Strokes and Effects. It determines whether Strokes and Effects are scaled when you scale the object(s) to which they are applied. It is also selectable in the Transform palette's flyout menu.
