Text is automatically bolding when over lapping a gradient.

I have a document with a graidient in the backgroiund and the text will automatically and only slightly bold itself. When I drag the text box compleatly off the gradient it will unbold--automatically. When I add a space at the beginning of a paragraph in the text box that paragraph alone will unbold, however, when I export to PDF or print it will once again bold itself. If I hide the layer with the image the text will unbold. I created the gradient in indesign. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Yes I am using it on every page. I originally had each column in a separate text box and only one box was effected so I made two collomns in one box so both colomns would have the simi-bold text. I really just wanted to know for sure if there was a special text display setting or some sort of auto edit that I could turn off. Looks like, from what you have said, it is just an auto display setting that I can not change.
Thanks

Text prints as bold when it's not bold :(

Hi,
I'm using Windows 7 and InDesign CS6. When I print PDF documents from files that have been created in InDesign some lines of the text print out bold when they are not bold and they also look a little fuzzy. I am creating the PDf using the "[High Quality Print]" option. I have tried changing several settings on the printer but nothing makes a difference. The problem doesn't occur when I print in black and white nor does it occur on PDF's I create from word or other applications. Can someone please help? Thanks Mel

Try updating the driver to a newer version for your printer.
And if you can get a Postscript Driver for your printer.
I had a similar issue last year and installing a postscript driver fixed the issue for me.
What printer are you using?

Random text appearing as bold when creating PDF from Photoshop CS5

Hi I am a relative newcomer to Photoshop CS5. I have been creating a document with a background image layer and a couple of text box layers. The font is set at Arial, italic, sharp. When I save the document as a PDF file, random words appear in bold. I have tried deleting these words in the PSD document text layer and retyping them but they still appear as bold in the PDF file. Interestingly when I save as a JPEG image the bold words appear as normal. Any ideas/ tips would be greatly appreciated. CS5 version is 12.0.4 and OS is Windows XP.

Some text appears bold when published. Why?

Hi.
I've used iWeb to create my very first web-site, but I have an annoying problem. On my links page, one particular block of text appears in bold when viewing on a browser. The text is not bolded, though, in iWeb.
http://web.mac.com/stevenrichardjackson/iWeb/bloggermepink/links.html
Look at the links on the right hand side, under the subheading "Apple".
Does anyone have any idea what I can do to make this text appear the same as the rest if the text on that page.
Thanks in advance,
Steve.

Wow -- this is getting stranger and stranger...
I did what you suggested, namely duplicating the "Apple" links text box, deleting the "Films" and "Geekery" text boxes, repositioning the duplicated box into the desired place and re-typing the links. This sounded like a pretty good suggestion.
However...
Now have a look:
http://web.mac.com/stevenrichardjackson/iWeb/bloggermepink/links.html
If you put your mouse over the "Geekery" links and move it around a bit, you'll see that the Xbox sites have a phantom space that appears and disappears depending on where the mouse is hovering...
The only explanation I can think of is that there is some kind of bug in iWeb's Publish function. Has this section of my web-site been published twice, and the second publish hasn't overwritten the first???
This might be way off mark, but what else could be causing this?
I have checked my file in iWeb, by the way, and there's no hidden text box or anything like that...
Hope you have a suggestion.
Cheers,
Steve.

Why does text appear bold when published?

My entire web site suffers from text that appears bold when I publish. I have followed various other threads, changed typefaces, put in returns and tried a variety of "tricks" and although some people appear to have fixed it, there is no universal fix that I can find. Has anyone else had any luck solving this? It ***** because it makes the whole page look rather unprofessional. www.brain-storm.com is the site.
Thanks

This problem occurred last night to me as well. I've been using iWeb for a couple of months with no problem. I added a blog entry and some photos last night and then published. When I checked out the site all of my text was bolded.
I'm new to Macs and iWeb so I struggled for hours last night and this morning to correct it. No luck.
Any ideas someone can suggest would be huge.

Text appearing as Bold and Italic in CS4

Hi Guys
Whenever I create a new document and type into it the text is automatically 'bold' and 'italics', I have saved the page and opened on another computer running CS4 and the text is fine (not bold or italic). I have created a page on another computer and opened it on the troublesome one and again it is bold and italic ((
I cannot see anything in the preferences that may cause it, I have also discarded the configuration folder which contains the preferences for the program - no good either (( So as a last resort I have re-installed Dreamweaver and it is still playing up. I guess I can re-installs the complete CS4 suite but rather not as it is going to take a while and also may not fix the problem.
Any ideas anybody??

I have just copied the code from the page as below and as you can see there is no bold or italic applied:-
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Text in table comes out as bold or bolder when I email it???

I have been very successful in writing and emailing my press
releases. However...
How I create then is via creating a table in Dreamweaver and
putting everything there. The reason why I use a table is so that I
can make sure that the content occupies 80% of the horizontal space
and so I can center the content.
I try to have the text come out as light, or normal looking.
However, I have found that all the text that is in the table
automatically comes out at bold (or bolder, depending on where the
email is received and read). I have tried everything I can to
change this so that it comes out as light, but have not had
success.
Can anyone explain why this is and give a solution?
An example is this press release:
http://www.manmeetswoman.com/newsletters/media/july2407_seattle.html
It looks good online, when went the page is emailed, the text
gets bold. I email it by pasting the source code into a program
that then emails the press one at a time.
Is there a way I am supposed to do this? A better way?
Any help and insight is appreciated.
Ron

Email clients typically do *NOT* read CSS that is in the head
of the page.
You have CSS in the head of the page forcing text that would
otherwise be
bold, to be normal in weight.

How can I create a text pop up window in my Pages document? I want text to pop up when the reader hovers his/her cursor over a certain word.

How can I create a text pop up window in my Pages document? I want text to pop up when the reader hovers his/her cursor over a certain word in the document. I am teacher. So for example when a student came to word he/she did not know, if he/she hovered the cursor over the word, a defintion or other information would appear. You can do this in Word using bookmarks/hyperlinks but I can't figure this out in Pages. I can link it to another point in my Pages document but I just need the text to pop up - not take the reader to another location. THANK YOU!!!!!!

Have you tried Word for Mac?
You will need to test if links survive export or printing to .pdf

How do you create the 'cream pop-up info text boxes' that appear when you hover mouse over?

Hi people,
I really need to know how you create the 'cream pop-up info text boxes' that appear when you hover your mouse over an object on a webpage (and often in any program e.g. Photoshop) for more than a second. I need to know because the logo on my website is the navigation tool used to return to the homepage. It is always found in the top left so the user can always click it to return.
The only problem is im the only one who knows that when you click my logo, you return to the homepage. I need one of these 'cream info boxes' (forgive my lack of knowledge) to appear so the user will figure it out.
Thanks for taking the time to read my question...

Using your code it should look like this where title attribute is in red:
<div id="apDiv2"><a href="index.html"><img src="divs_dw/jtgd_logo_trans.png" alt="jtgd_logo" title="your description goes here" width="176" height="163" /></a></div>

Text doesn't activate when button underneath is rolled over.

I have 2 layers in my flash site. 1 with my nav buttons which work fine. But when I put the text in a layer above to identify the button, the button action won't activate when over the text. But when I move my cursor not on an area of the text but still over the button, it does work. Help! I got one in another part of the site to work fine, but these don't. They are set-up exactly the same as far as I can tell.

Are you sure? Since you use the term "classic" I assume you are using a newer version of Flash than I have. But classically speaking... static textfields do have the selectable option (look for the "Ab" icon in the panel)

Material desc automatically filled when enter material number using SM30

Hi all,
I have created Z table with fields material number(MATNR) and material description. Iam maintaing table using SM 30 transaction. If I enter material number the material description automatically filled when press enter button.
Is there any solution for this
Thanks
Sudarsana

Hello,
whenever you create a maintainance for a table an SAP program is generated which will have the name SAPL(name of the function group to which the table is assigned)....you can go directly to the program inside SM30 by clicking on the top menu -> system -> status ->program name and screen number
inside SM30 go to the screen where you have to see the description(based on 1step and 2step ) and note the screen number and program name
once you go the program -> go to the particular screen -> and confirm the screen
inside the PAI or PBO
write the code :
if Material number is not initial.
select and put material description into the screen field for text.
else.
clear the value for text in screen field
endif.
Disadvantages : whenever you create a new maintainance by using the table maintainance generator the code is over written
solution:the screen code will be always over written..but inside the SAPL program when you create the PBO/PAI make an include and save it...when regenerating the include will not be over written but you will have to go to the screen flow logic and give the name of the PBO/PAI modules
A table once finalised will not require regenerating the maintainance again but this is a draw back ...but the solution just provided is the widely accepted and followed one
Reward if useful

Why doesn't text message automatically fall back to SMS instead of options

I have text messages set to iMessage ok and SMS okay.
When a text message fails initially why isn't there a setting that the text will 'automatically' rollover to SMS instead of wasting time coming up with 3 options at the bottom of the screen, including sending as SMS?
Mark

Markg2 wrote:
The problem could be due to the second reply but I'm suspicious since whenever the problem occurs, the message always goes through when I click the 'option' send as text.
I believe that's because your forcing it to go as an SMS.
One associated question. When a text is sent SMS is it solely routed through the carrier's (in this instance Verizon) equipment an lines and when sent as an iMessage is it routed/handled somehow significantly differently other than not charging the apple customer(s)?
Yes, SMS is solely routed through the carrier's SMS system (does not require a data connection). iMessages are sent by either the carrier's data service or by WiFi to Apple's iMessage servers. Overall, SMS is more reliable. SMSs will go through when even voice calls may not. They can also be sent and received by "dumb" phones. But, they can't be sent/received by devices without cellular voice service. iMessages can be sent/received by iPads, iPod Touches, Mac computers. If the iMessages are sent or received using cellular data, they are charged against the user's data allowance.

Text caption to disapear when press play

I have a video fil on the slide, we want a text box/caption to tell the user press play button(on video) to start it and the text caption fade out when U have pressed play, not automatic fade in and fade out. Is that possible?

Hello,
Have a couple of questions:
Which version of Captivate do you use?
Is this slide video, or an inserted FLV with its default playbar? From your description I suspect it is an inserted FLV
Has the text caption to disappear completely after fading?
It is possible to apply an effect (like fading out - it will be AlphaFromTo) by advanced action in Captivate 5/5.5. But the action has to be triggered by an interactive object (button, click box) on the slide, and you cannot set the duration of the effect which is really annoying. I could find a workaround by creating a custom effect with the appropriate duration.
Something similar, but less cumbersome is to use an Exit effect, FadedZoomOut. Then you'll not have to bother about the duration at all. This was my work flow:
created a click box and put it on the same location as the play button of the play bar (FLV), but under the FLV on the Timeline (it will still be active, but if you put it on top, the play button will not be active)
created an advanced action with one statement:Apply Effect Text_Caption_1 FadedZoomOut (you can use the ellipsis eventually to have the Initial and Final scale set to the same amount, so that there is no zooming only fading)
attach this advanced action to the click box
Just crossing my fingers that you have version 5/5.5

Indesign CS5 with PNG file exporting as a PDF file but the text is random bold

Hello,
I am looking for help to teach me how to solve this problem.
I use Indesign CS5 to make a proposal. I set the page marker and sub title in the master page.
Of course, there are including dozens of pages and some pictures here.
And one of these page, I place a PNG file and type some text.
When I export this file as a PDF file, one page, which is including PNG file, the text becomes random bold.
Therefore, I have used PSD file to cover the PNG file. But finally getting the same problem.
So does anyone can help me how to solve this problem?
Thanks so much for your help.

This sounds like a known issue with transparency on the page. When transparency is introduced ID uses a differnt method, apparently, of rendering text on that page and it appears bolder on screen and can print that way on low resolution devices like desktop printers. It usually is not a problem on press output.
The only way to mainatian consistency would be to introduce transparency on all pages, perhaps by adding a transparent object to your master page.

Is there a way to obtain the text item's value when the mouse pointer at?

Hi,
Is there a way to obtain the text item's value when the mouse pointer at? Mouse pointer may be located somewhere out of current record and even out of current block.

There is a when-mouse-over trigger and that works fine in client-server mode for Forms 5/6/6i, but that is less indicated when deployed using Application Server.
In that trigger you may write whatever code is necessary, restricted package procedures.
Still, I think, for your case, if you do not have to deal with a multi-record block, you should use the HINT property for that item and set_item_property with the HINT argument for that item in order to set the hint to the item's value - this should set_item_property should be called on the when-new-record-instance .

Text is automatically bolding when over lapping a gradient.
