See & print highlighted text

I wonder if, for future updates of Adobe Reader, you could include the following feature: It would be very useful if, in the right column, besides viewing the content of the sticky notes, it could be possible to see the highlighted text. And it would be even better if all this information could be printed.
Thanks

Can't print highlighted text on pdf's in Preview

I had printing problems with my office printer Canon IR series. the Canon update UFR II V 2.24 fixed this but brought a new problem.
I can't print annotated pdf's correctly.
Any highlighted text is covered with a full colour bar with no text visible under it. It just covers the text.
Is there a fast way of printing with no annotations or of fixing this problem and just print the highlights correctly?!
Thanks

Just tested this to the iR C3380i using the UFR2 v2.24 and can replicate the symptom. I found that if you change the Graphics Mode from UFR2 to Raster, the text will print. To get to this setting, select to print with the UFR2 driver and change to the Quality menu. Then select Quality Setting button to show the Quality Settings pane. Here you will see the Raster Mode setting. Select and OK the change and now you can print the annotated PDF.
You will probably note that this workaround was the same solution to the Graphics Mode message that appeared with the previous version of the UFR2 driver with the 10.6.7 update. The v2.24 driver stopped this message from appearing but this latest symptom would suggest there is still something not completely right with this new driver, although I seem to remember there being issues with the older driver on earlier versions of 10.6 and the Graphics Mode setting was the only solution.

HP LaserJet Pro 400 prints highlighted text fields, instead of turning off highlights

I have an electronic medical record with highlighted fields which I fill in. When printing, every other printer only prints the text but not the highlighted background. Unfortunately, the HP laserjet prints the gray background. How do I turn that off?

I have an HP laserjet 4L with a usb adapter connected to the airport via a usb hub, and have had little trouble, except for last night it kept printing 1 partial page over and over. I printed multiple pages at once, I figured the printer just OD'd, after all its an old printer. I have one laptop that uses Vista, and its always giving me grief. Vista

Printing highlighted text

Just wondering if there is a easier way to print only the text I highlight on a web page other than cutting and pasting in a Word document? Thanks!

Greetings,
It would help immensely if you filled out your profile with the specific Mac you're using, the exact version of Mac OS X you're running, and which version of Safari you're referring to. All those things make a difference for any solution, and we can't be expected to guess.
Generally speaking, you can use Print Selection to do this from the Services menu.

This seems like it should be available in the screen that pops up when you print. What gives?

You can use a Services menu item:

Is there a way to print all text messages/sms from an iPhone4 3G? I need to go back about 2-3 years back, i also want to see the text messages, not only the tel. number and whether it was sent or received.

Is there a way to see/print ALL text messages exchanges from my previous phone (Blackberry Storm) to iPhone4 3G? I want to be able to print ALL text messages from 2 lines on my account. Thank you.

If they are still stored on your phone, with the BB you may be able to print them; if not natively, you may be able to download an app that will do that. Offhand, I'm not familiar with one, but google may help. -The iPhone may have an app that will allow this as well. Two to three YEARS? That' s a lot of texting!!

How can I copy or print all text highlights in Adobe Reader for Android?

I read many tech books as pdfs. And highlight the parts I want to note.
Since I am now reading them on an Android Tablet using Adobe Reader for Android, I need to find a way to move my highlights to a separate doc when I am done reading. I don't see instructions for this anywhere.
How can I copy all text highlights at once from a document?
And / or

Thanks.
Kindle Reader will let me do that with Kindle books and docs that I buy from
Amazon, but not with personal docs (such as pdfs) that I import, unfortunately.
Is a VERY useful feature!

Highlight text for Print

I am trying to find a way to be able to highlight text in a document and and then print it with the text highlighted (as you would when reading an article and marking thru important points with a pen highlighter) Also how would I highlight multiple but different text lines so that they all show? I can't seem to find a key that will allow it. (ie. control or option key)
Thanks for your advice,
Glen

ApleWorks doesn't provide for any method to directly "highlight text for printing," or for display on a monitor, for that matter. The 'highlighting' you see after dragging across a line or block of text is an indication that the text is Selected, and may now be manipulated, but tat highlighting will not appear on a printed page.
You can "place a colour block behind" the text to create an effect similar to running a hi-liter across the text on a printed page, it's fairly easy, and the result will print.
Show the Tools palette (Window > Show tools, or click the red toolbox at the lower left of the document window).
Use the Rectangle tool to draw a rectangle that just covers the text you want to highlight.
Use the Fill formatting button then the color palette to select a highlight colour. Repeat using the formatting button then the color palette to set the line colour to the same value as the fill colour.
Copy the rectangle so that you can re-use it.
Go Arrange > Move to back to place the rectangle behind the (now highlighted) text.
Still in Draw mode (you should have the Arrow mouse pointer—if not, click on the Selection tool {arrow} in the tools palette), Paste another copy of the coloured rectangle, drag it to the next line of text you want to highlight, and adjust the length to cover the text to be highlighted. Move to back as above. Repeat as necessary.
NOTE that these rectangles are not part of the text, but floating objects. If you edit text above the highlighted portion, change fonts or size, or change style (eg. to bold), the text to be highlighted will move, but the rectangles will not. Best to leave this highlighting until you've finished otherwise revising text.
NOTE2: When resizing small rectangles like this, it's easy to change their height when trying to change only their length.
TIP: When you have one the right size for the text size and font you are using, select it, then go Options > Object size... and note the height of the object, reported in the second box in the right column. For subsequent highlight rectangles, after adjusting the length to fit the text to be highlighted, open the Object size dialogue, enter the correct size into the Height box, then press tab to confirm the entry.

Barry

Is there a way in Pages to show and print all the added "comments?" (those you add by highlighting text) I'd like students to be able to view my comments on printed version of their papers.

Is there a way in Pages to show and print all the added "comments?" (those you add by highlighting text) I am a teacher, and I would like students to be able to view my comments on printed versions of their papers. I know word displays the comments off to the side of the document, and those comments can be viewed all at once and printed alongside the document.

There doesn't appear to be a way to print conmments in either Pages or Numbers in the Mavericks versions.

I typed in data into the highlighted text box, and then tried to print my form. However, when printed, the copy only showed a portion of my answer. Is there a way to expand Adobe Reader's highlighted text to show my full response, or should I make my responses only as long as the highlighted portion allows?

While printing any pdf file it will print the visible text only. To overcome this, the form needs to be dynamic so that it expands in layout while entering more data. Usually dynamic forms are developed by Adobe LiveCycle Designer.

Printing to windows printer via SMB - Printing garbled text

Hi all.
I have been working on this issue for around 3 hrs this morning and finally figured it out. Thought I'd post what I did to help others with similar issues.
Here's my set up:
I have a PC with HP photosmart printer connected to it. I've a Macbook Pro that I connect to the PC via SMB protocol for file sharing. If I wanted to print from the mac to the printer I had to disconnect the printer form the PC and directly connect it to the mac. I wanted to be able to print from the Mac to the printer via the PC. Should be that hard right as I have already successfully file shared via SMB.
Well it was a little difficult. I did many a search on here and the web and eventually found the following article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh2231.html
So, following these steps i tried to print a single page word (office 2008 for mac) doc from the mac. Hey presto! The printer kicked into life and started...
...problem was it spewed out around 20 pages of Garbled text! I tought it might have been print jobs stacked up from the last unsuccessful attemt at doing this but no, no jobs there. Thought it might have been Word/office for mac, etc. so tried to print from Text Edit but same thing.
After hrs of screaming, F'ing & Blinding I finally figured out it was to do with what printer I had it set up on. I went into Print & Fax in System Preferences, highlighted the printer and clicked printer setup tab. In the drop down tab I selected printer model. It was set on Generic.
In the drop down list there it shows a huge selection of printers. my particular model was not there so I chose the closest thing and selected that.
After exiting all that and trying again it worked.
I'm very happy.

Hi iVirtual, what Mac OS are you running, Leopard (10.5.4) or Tiger (10.4.11)? Also, is your printer directly attached to your pc or is it a network printer directly on the local area network? One last question, do you have a firewall (like Trend Micro or Norton Internet Security) on your PC?
From my Mac running Leopard, I have no problem printing to a printer directly attached to my WindowsXP machine. However, I don't have the same luck from my Tiger Machines.
When I print to any networked printer (by that I mean printers directly attached to the network) from the WindowsXP machine with SP3, I always have to use the IP address. The printer.local name no longer works since I installed SP3.
simonparker, If your printer is directly attached to your PC using a USB cable, I don't think you'll be able to see it with the Bonjour Printer Wizard application. Since your printer is shared, you might check your WORKGROUP name on your PC. Something you might check is this:
Do you have a password on your user account on the PC? You'll probably need a password on your PC account. I don't think you can share anything if you don't have a password (I could be wrong, but it has never worked for me without a password).
On leopard, when I added the printer to the Mac I did this:
1) bring up System Preferences/Print&Fax
2) Press the + sign under the printer list, when the add window pops up, choose the "Windows" icon and you should see your workgroup name in the left list.
3) Choose the workgroup and it should populate with your machine name.
4) Select the machine name in the middle list and you should get a login and password dialog box.
5) Enter your PC's Username and Password.
6) You should see a list of shared printers in the right most list.
7) Select the printer and then select the driver.
Your printer should now be configured on the Mac. I know that I had to enter my PC's user name and password several times before I could print.

How do I highlight text in the new Pages? It's not clear.

I have the new version of Pages. And it appears that highlighting of text is an issue. This is a basic function.
I found there is one quick key version, but doesn't clearly explain how to change highlighting colours. How to get into it.
I have to explain this to my 80 year old mom, who we told to get a Mac because it was easier!
So if anyone has it laid out step 1, 2, 3, that would be helpful, because it's not clear to me either.
Thanks!
Apple - please to a quick fix for this one, it should be the same as changing the size or the font or like bold or italic. Simple, clear, fast and doable..... for anyone!

TO Peter,
Thanks for the list. I had found it in LibreOffice, tucked away in the Background tab of the Character pane opened by the Character... menu item in the Format menu, and named "Background Color. A few steps further down than in Pages. Apache OpenOffice has it in the same place. But both also have a hilight icon in the toolbar.
I didn't fin highlighting or Color fill in Text Edit (v1.8). Might need a further search.
But this well-equipped party of (one) oscurantist did find a shorter path to highlighting text in Pages '09, cleverly hidden in plain view! See the image below.
TO hscortez,
I'm aware that changing the text colour is not highlighting.
But YeOldMacFan pointed out how to change text colour AND how to change background colour of text, using Character fill, found in the Advanced Options (Pages 5) or the More (Pages '09) tab of the Text Inspector.
Character Fill fills the space around the character with the chosen colour. As shown above, it's essentially the same effect as dragging a hiliter pen along a line of printed text.
Unfortunately, whats shown above is the Character fill well on the format bar of Pages '09—right out in the open like the highlighter pen button in LibreOffice, and presumeably in MS Word. I don't have Pages 5 (avoiding it until a few more of the missing features arrive), but I do note that Pages for iOS offers highlight as one of the options in the contextual menu that appears when a block of text is selcted.
The process appears to be:
tap twice to select some text.
drag the handles at each end of the selection to adjust what's selected.
tap Highlight in the menu that has appeared on the screen.
One thing missing appears to be colour choice. The default is a 'hiliter yellow'. I didn't see a way to select a different colour.
"Hopefully, this will make it on their upgrade list. "
Hope is good, but taking action is useful.
Pages menu > Provide Pages Feedback > Make your request that this be added to Pages 5. Requests made through Provide ...Feedback go directly to Apple. Comments and questions here are read by users like yourself, and we don't have the ability to change the way the apps work. Not directly,anyway.

Printing highlighted reports

Hello,

I have a report where I have highlighted the particular column based upon a condition. 
 e.g.
CASE "STATE" WHEN 'VA' THEN 
'span style="width:70px;background-color:99CC66">' || 'VA' || '' 
END) "STATE"
I am using the Template 2. Standard.

When I run this page I could see the highlighted logic is working and the cell is getting highlighted in different color. When I click on Print Preview or Print the report with color printer, just the normal black & white text gets printed. I am not sure why the color is not getting directed to printer.
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks!!

Hi ,
The above link shows highlighting the foreground color and it works fine. I am trying to highlight the background color and when I use the above color, print doesn't recognize the back ground color.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Highlighting Text In Pages 4 and 5: How To/Best Methods?

Hello Fellow Macers:
I need advice on the best way to highlight text in Pages 4 and 5:
I use and prefer Pages 4.3. Yes, I have Pages 5.2, and I find that using it good for some things (dictating into a document), but not so good for others - highlighting text.
For example, I read tons of documents and like to make notes, comments and especially highlight text according to a color-code scheme that I have used for years.
For those who use Word, this process of highlighting text is pretty straight-forward:
You highlight your text and then simply click your highlight box on the Word toolbar (choose a default color, usually yellow) and you're done. If you need to use another color, just use the pull-down, as seen above. The drawback in Word - no Orange, or sectrum option.
But let's face it - Word as a program is just too much. As someone who has used every word processing program under the sun, I find Pages excellent. It does what I need.
However, I find highlighting text in Pages clumsy. Here's what I need to do to highlight text in Pages 4.3:
Go to your toolbar, and then choose a highlight/background color. It's more labor intensive then Word, above, but you do have the option of more colors.
Then there's this method, where basically you get to simply use yellow as your color:
IMHO both are clumsy methods compared to Word, but have become even more so in Pages 5.2....
Lots of clicks to achieve simple color highlights.
Am I missing something, or is there a simpler way, in either Pages 4 or Pages 5, to achieve the above results???
Any suggestions appreciated!

Dear VikingOSX:
As Ed MacMahon once said (before your time?) re Pages 5 Character Fill Color: "You are correct, sir!!"
The gear icon IS where the function that I'm talking about is located. Still, it's annoying.
Q: Why?
A: Because from a work-flow perspective as someone who is highlighting it makes no sense. We in the Western world read and write from top to bottom, left to right. Making a mark on a doc should follow the same flow.
You should not have to keep looking over to the right side of the doc to find your function. Logically it should be at the top (e.g., toolbar), on the left, or perhaps some contextual pop-up option.
Furthermore, it's more "labor intensive" from this point of view: In Word, once you set the color (which, granted, you may need to change from time to time IF you, like me, use multiple colors as part of your highlighting workflow), you just click the box after highlighting the text - 1 click vs 2, and possibly 3.
The "richer color" part of my comment was just to note that a flaw, in my view, of Word's basic scheme is that:
1) It lacks an Orange. And we've all used an Orange highlighter at somepoint, right? Or perhaps, you were like me in High School and threw them instead. But you get the point...and
2) Having a wider pallatte available as an option - which you do in Apple's scheme - is nice. I use color coding/highlighting to make notes and save time. The colors tell me what's important, what's next important, key terms, etc. Also, for example, if I wanted to outline my highlighting notes, the color scheme (which has a heirarchy based on color, right?) allows me to do this quickly because it's already there.
As for the Dictation function working on Pages '09/4.3 - again, you are correct, sir! And that's great to know. I had tried to use it before when the new Pages 5 (hitting fn twice on Pages 4.3) but it didn't activate. I tried it after reading your response and Bingo! It's Alive! So thanks for that tip.
Your keyboard shortcut scheme is an interesting idea, and I may try it as an experiment. My intuition is that it will not work as straight-forwardly as Word's toolbar pull-down will, but I might be wrong. We'll see.
And yes, I do use Pages '09 (4.3) instead of Pages 5 for exactly this reason (see my discussion)
Great reply! Thanks!

Highlighting Text Acting Like REDACTING Text

Dunno what's goin on. A Pro 9. Windows Home, ALL UPDATES.
I highlight text and instead of seeing the text highlited, the highligt COVERS the tex. It's YELLOW colored REDTACTION.
I've REPAIRED the app TWICE. I REBOOTED each time. That APPEARED to have corrected the problem. It DIDN'T because the REPAIR failed and the HIGHLIGHT BLOTTOED OUT the text. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app. I opened the last thing I was working on where the YELLOW HIGHLIGHT redacted the text and the text WAS VISIBLE while highlighted. THEN I opened another PDF file and same deal, the YELLOW highlighting REDACTED rather than HIGHLIGHTED.
Uh, is it a me thing? Is it a thing I can chek or uncheck in A Pro 9? Wassup with this weirdness?

CS4 is not kind to those who don't know HTML/CSS well enough
to avoid these
errors, I'm afraid. It's really all about how much HTML and
CSS you feel
comfortable with, not the tool you are using. Should the
page/site be
rebuilt? I think so - at the least it should be taken apart
and
reassembled. Are the mistakes you made ones that you will
make again? Yes,
I think so.
I don't want to sound harsh or pessimistic, but I think
that's the bottom
line. I assume you are building the site for her so that she
wouldn't have
the expense of paying someone to do it, right? But wouldn't
you also want
her site to be the best it can be, and not to look/behave
like someone's
first site?
Now - if you want to bite the bullet and shove down some HTML
& CSS, and
muddle through, there is plenty of help here, but if you
aren't carrying
your load, people will tire of solving the problems you
encounter.
