Text to paths loosing style information

I've known this as a long standing issue and can't find any information if there's a fix or workaround. When converting text to paths - as some printers demand - I loose things like Rules assigned in the styles. Has this been addressed anywhere? Way I see it this is a huge bug that's just cost me a lot in terms of reprinting a clients material.

If you have Acrobat, have you tried the flattener from the print production toolset? While in the comments to the linked article someone mentions it doesn't always work, it's always worked for me. I have some people I work with outside of the US where I have to send files like you are doing a few times a year.
This is how the preset I saved for this is set up.
The test file I just threw together has a mix of bullets, numbering, character style with a dashed underline, highlighted text that was underlined, etc.

    for now, i dont know what to do.. if someone recommend any useful idea, i would be greatful.
    best regards..

    hello,
    thank you for your reply..
    i made some changes and i dont see the errors that i mentioned above any more. but still some problems..
    firstly, i decided to change the settings in the mapViewerConfig.xml file in order to add a new datasource. i copied it and that is the reason why you see the '!' in my explanation. the new situation in the mapViewerConfig.xml file like this:
    <map_data_source name="mvdemo"
    jdbc_host="c-0y5wp0jvd2bf8"
    jdbc_sid="orcl"
    jdbc_port="1521"
    jdbc_user="mvdemo"
    jdbc_password="nzKVD/KFZYkGc0uF7EL7/vPibuAPpQ9j"
    jdbc_mode="thin"
    number_of_mappers="3"
    />
    "c-0y5wp0jvd2bf8" is my computer name. jdbc password was encrypted when i started the mapviewer. this is the new screen of the mapviewer after starting:

  • TS3297 This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below."

    This is the message I get on top when I used BEST BUY REWARD ZONE to access itunes.  On the bottom, I get code;this happens when I use ie7 and google chrome.  I can, so far, get into iTunes directly;but for how long is anybody's guess.  Is Apple still associated with Best Buy?

    Never heard of it, but there ain't no such thing as a free lunch. The error message from IE7 tells you pretty much all you need to know. "There is no style information which might allow the information in the XML file to be presented in a way which might make it easier for you to interpret. Here is the raw content". I no idea why you think opening the XML file is necessary. The file is a text based representation of your iTunes library designed to be read by third party applications.

  • Using Item UIDRef, can we get data as set in "text on path option" dailog box for each "text on path" item

    Hi all,
    I have a Item UIDRef but facing a problem for getting data as set in "text on path option" dailog box for each "text on path" item.
    What I did:
    - Getting the  pointer "IMainItemTOPData" using item UIDRef as
      InterfacePtr<IMainItemTOPData> mainItemTOPData(shapesUIDRef, UseDefaultIID());
    - This interface has the method GetTOPOptionData () which return ITOPOptionsData pointer
    - But SDK don't have "ITOPOptionsData" class implementation.
    Second Approch:
    - Used "ITextOnPathSelectionSuite" and getting the correct result for Desktop plugin.But I want the correct result in server plugin also.
    Anyone who has an idea how to get this using UIDRef, please let me know.
    Regards,
    Jitendra Kumar Singh

    Hi Pulse,
    Unfortunately, Flex doesn't currently support text on a path. However, I binged it and found this:

  • Change color of compoundPathItems created by converting Text to Paths using createOutline()

    I used createOutline() to convert Text to Paths. However, the return is a GroupItem and I had difficulty in changing its stroke and fill colors.
    Here is my script:
    var docActive = app.documents.add();
    var textFrame = docActive.pathItems.rectangle( 0, 0, 200, 20);
    var areaText = docActive.textFrames.areaText(textFrame);
    areaText.contents = "Hello My Friend";
    areaText.textRange.characterAttributes.size = Math.round(20*0.85);
    var textOutline = areaText.createOutline();
    // Trying to change stroke and fill colors of textOutline but got stuck here...

    try this, I added comments next to each line
    var docActive = app.documents.add();
    var textFrame = docActive.pathItems.rectangle( 0, 0, 200, 20);
    var areaText = docActive.textFrames.areaText(textFrame);
    areaText.contents = "Hello My Friend";
    areaText.textRange.characterAttributes.size = Math.round(20*0.85);
    var textOutline = areaText.createOutline(); // this is a group
    var compoundPaths = textOutline.compoundPathItems; // each letter is a compound path
    for (i=0; i<compoundPaths.length; i++) {    // loop thru all letters
        var compoundPath = compoundPaths[i];    // this holds one letter at a time
        var pathItems = compoundPath.pathItems; // all pieces (pathItems) of the compound path make up each letter
        for (j=0; j< pathItems.length; j++) {   // loop thru all letter parts
            var pathItem = pathItems[j];            // this holds one letter piece at a time
            pathItem.fillColor = docActive.swatches[5].color;       // fill it with the 5th swatch

  • This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with

    Hi All,
    I have IDOC to XML file scenario.
    In SXMB_MONI, it showed the message processed successfully (checkered flag).
    I open the payload in the target, I'm able to see the XML format without error.
    then I checked in RWB the overall status is successful.
    But when I checked the detail (message content) I got the following message:
    "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it".
    So physical file created is like corrupted.
    If using XML marker to open the file it show warning "Invalid Unicode Sequence".
    The thing is when rerun the whole interface again, which is mean the same idoc send from the source, the file created successfully. Sometimes need to rerun twice or more than that to get the file.
    Anyone has idea on what is wrong here?
    Thanks,
    Victor.

    Hi Baskar,
    Thanks for your reply.
    It's PI 7.0.
    Overall status is successful but when I go to RWB to check the message content i got the error message above.
    Target system is only normal FTPS server.
    XML file is created as well but it's showing error when we open it.
    The weird thing is without fixing anything if we rerun the same interface with same set of data sometimes the error is gone by itself.
    Thanks,
    Victor.

  • Illustrator CS 5.1 Text On Path Transform Panel

    Just upgraded from CS4 to CS5.1. I noticed that when I have text on a path, and I try to use the Transform Panel to change the size of the text, it distorts the path. For example, if I make a 10" circle, and place text going around that circle, and then try to use the Transform Panel to put in a new width dimensions (say 5"), it distorts the path and text to an oval shape (wider than tall). I have contrain proportions selected, along with "Scale Strokes & Effects" and "Transform Both" checked on. I noticed this when I had a design I was working on. It was a panther mascot logo in a ciircle with text going around the circle. I tried to use the Transform Panel to change the size of the entire design, and it distorted everything. I problem solved and figured out the text on the path was the culprit. If I select everything excluding the text on the path, it will tranform correctly.
    Any insight as to how to resolve this issue (other than converting the text to paths) would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Yup, that worked, however I really don't like having to turn off preview bounds. I like getting accurate reading on dimensions, especially when objects have strokes on them. Is that a quirk with CS5? I worked with preview bounds turned on in CS4 with no issues. Thanks again for youer help.

  • Text object, 2 font styles

    Text Object ,
    ONE text object, 2 fonts styles?
    (Q1) Is possible to handle this styles:
    [Text1]
    String: [Arial Font and Courier New Font]
    (Q2) If can handle, in Formula, can do it this effect ?
    Please!

    Hello Looploop,
    You won't be able to do this within a single text object but it can be done in a formula if you use HTML text. In the formula surround the string you want to display in Arial with HTML tags for arial font and the other portion of the string in HTML tags that output courier font. After you have placed the formula on the report right click on it > Format Field > Paragraph tab and select HTML Text for Text Interpretation.

  • Add style to large block of text without affecting existing styles within that text

    Hello! First post here.
    I have a long document of text that mostly does not have text styles attached (this was a mistake). However, there is a large number of areas of styled text within.
    Is there a way to select all the text and apply a style to only the unstyled text without affecting the existing styles?
    Doing this by hand text block by text block would take a long long time.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
