Tiny 1 point numbers in front of headings, links

Exporting PDFs from MS Word 2010 (Windows). Acrobat 11 Pro.
For the past couple of weeks, exporting PDFs from MS Word creates tiny microscopic letters/numbers in front of headings, links, and other items.
To the naked eye they look like a black dot, but zoomed in shows 01, 02, T2201 and similar things.
First graphic is what you see in the PDF viewed at 100%.
The second graphic is zoomed in 2000%. The number is set in 1 point type.
Word .docx file uses traditional Heading 1, Heading 2 styles for formatting. No numbering is set for these items in word. And once they are generated in the PDF, they are in little text frames in front of the heading text.
They are not produced when I transfer this document to another computer and export to PDF, so there's something in my system that's doing this.
They are affecting accessibility because they are read as part of the heading. In this example, screen reader voices it as "1 Busing" instead of "Using."
Any ideas how to stop these little monsters from showing up in my PDFs?

  • How does Java store floating point numbers?

    Hello
    I'm writing a paper about floating point numbers in which I compare an IEEE-754 compatible language [c] with Java. I read that Java can do a conversion decimal->binary->decimal and retain the same value whereas c can't. I found several documents discussing the pros and cons of that but I can't find any information about how it is implemented.
    I hope someone can explain it to me, or post a link to a site explaining it.
    Cheers
    Huttu

    So it is a myth.
    I still ask because I observed a oddity: When I store 1.4 in c and printf( %2.20f\n",a); it I get 1.39999999999999991118. If I do the same in Java with System.out.printf( %2.20f\n",a); I get 1.4. If I multiply the variable with itself I get 1.95999999999999970000:
    double a=1.4;
    a=a*a;
    System.out.printf( %2.20f\n",a);
    {code}
    Does this happen because of the rounding in Java?                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

  • IEEE 754 standards for representing floating point numbers

    HI All..
    Most of us are not awared how the actually Floating point numbers are represented . IEEE have set standards as how should we represent floating point numbers.
    I am giving u the link with which u can know how actually these are represented.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754
    If u have any doubts u can always reach me.
    Bye
    Happy learning

    A noble but misguided attempt at dispelling the recurring problems the programmers have over and over again. There have been repeated posts to links about the IEEE standard, to little or no avail. The newbies who run into the problems will continue to do so, without regard to yet another post about it here.

  • SQL Loader and Floating Point Numbers

    Hi
    I have a problem loading floating point numbers using SQL Loader. If the number has more than 8 significant digits SQL Loader rounds the number i.e. 1100000.69 becomes 1100000.7. The CTL file looks as follows
    LOAD DATA
    INFILE '../data/test.csv' "str X'0A'"
    BADFILE '../bad/test.bad'
    APPEND
    INTO TABLE test
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY "," OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
    Amount CHAR
    and the data file as follows
    "100.15 "
    "100100.57 "
    "1100000.69 "
    "-2000000.33"
    "-100000.43 "
    the table defined as follows
    CREATE TABLE test
    Amount number(15,4)
    ) TABLESPACE NNUT050M1;
    after loading a select returns the following
    100.15
    100100.57
    1100000.7
    -2000000
    -100000.4
    Thanks in advance

    Actually if you format the field to display as (say) 999,999,999.99, you will see the correct numbers loaded via SQL Loader.

  • How to gather a set of floating point numbers from a web page form?

    I am pretty new to Java and I am working on a project to apply Benfords law to find the probability of digits submitted by the user. My first step is to gather set of floating point numbers from a web page. How do I go about doing this? Any suggestion or a proper site where I can learn this stuff will be highly appreciated.

    I am using NetBeans IDE 5.5.1 and for this project. I have realized that the first question was not well phrased.
    I created a web project with 2 jsp files and a class file in it. When my jsp file runs I ask the user to enter a number for finding the probablility based on Benfords law.
    This is what I got so far:
    This is input.jsp
    <h1></h1>
    Please enter a number to be checked
    <form action="result.jsp" method="post">
    <input type="number" name="number" >
    <input type="submit" value="Check number">
    </form>
    </body>
    </html>
    This is result.jsp
    String number=request.getParameter("number");

  • OS X Mavericks Contacts phone numbers shown as Floating point numbers

    After installing Mavericks on MBP, I notice that some phone numbers in contacts are shown as floating point numbers, and are unreadable. I am guessing that these are numbers which were proceeded by "+" previously.
    An example is 4.9161E+12, which is for a German contact, and the number would be +49 161...
    I can't see any way to change the format, and the floating point display is useless, as the last digits are lost.
    Would appreciate any advice on the matter.
    Many thanks,
    Michael.

    Music and pics are one way sync - computer to iphone. The iphone is not a storage device.
    Only itunes purchased music can be transfered. With iphone attached to itunes, click file>transfer purchases.
    Pics are optimized for viewing on iphone, reducing the quality of the pic on the iphone. Only pics taken with iphone and in the Camera Roll can be imported from iphone. This is done as with any other digital camera. You can e-mail the other pics to yourself one at a time. They will not be of the original quality though.
    You really should back up your info/pics/music as hard drives can and do fail.

  • Serial Communicat​ion(CAN) of Floating Point Numbers

    Hi,
    I have ran into a situation were I need to use floating point numbers(IEEE Floating Standard) when communicating.   How can I send and recieve floating point numbers?  What converstions need to be made?  Is there a good resource on this?
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Hi K.,
    in automotive a lot of fractional values are exchanged via CAN communication, but still the CAN protocol is based on using integer numbers (of variable bit size)…
    We are thinking we need to use single SGL floats ... that require a higher resoultion and precision
    What is the needed resolution and "precision"? SGL transports 23 bits of mantissa: you can easily pack them into an I32 value!
    Lets make an example:
    I have a signal with a value range of 100…1000 and a resolution of 0.125. To send this over CAN I need to use 13 bits and scale the value with a gain of 0.125 and an offset of 100. Values will be send in an integer representation:
    msgdata value
    0 100
    500 162.5
    501 162.625
    1000 225
    5000 725
    7200 1000
     The formula to translate msgdata to value is easy: value := msgdata*gain+offset.
    Another example: the car I test at the moment sends it's current speed as 16 bit integer value with a range of 0…65532. The gain is 0.01 so speed translates to 0.00…655.32 km/h. The values 65533-65535 have special meanings to indicate errors…
    So again: What is your needed resolution and data range?
    Another option: send the SGL as it is: just 4 bytes. Receive those 4 bytes on your PC as I32/U32 and typecast them to SGL…
    Best regards,

  • Single Precision Floating Point Numbers to Bytes

    Ok here is some code that i have written w hile back with some help from the support staff. It is designed to take in precision floating point numbers that are stored as 4 bytes and convert then to a decimal value. It works off of a udp input string and then also reformats the string. I have the ability to look at up to 4000 parameters from this one udp string. But now what i want to do is do the opposite of what i have written, and also perhaps get rid of the matlab i used in it as well. What i would like to be able to do is input a decimal value and then have it converted in to the 4 byte groupings that make up this decimal nd then have it inputed back in to a single long string witht hat grouping of bytes in the right order. A better explanation of what was done can be found on this website
    http://www.jefflewis.net/XPlaneUDP_8.html
    as the original code followed the "Single Precision Floating Point Numbers and Bytes" example on that site but what i want to do is "Going from Single Precision Floating Point Numbers to Bytes". The site also explains the udp string that is being represented. Also attached is the original code that i am trying to simply reverse.

    Perhaps what you are doing is an exercise in the programming of the math conversion of the bytes.
    But if you are just interested in getting the conversion done, why not use the typecast function?
    If the bytes happen to be in the wrong order for wherever you need to send the string, then you can use string functions to rearrange them.

  • Floating point numbers into XML file

    Hi,
    I am a learner in Labview and I am using Labview 8.5 version.
    when I use FlattentoXML component to convert floating point numbers ( having more than 5 decimal points) into XML, the output contains alway 5 decimal points.
    But, I want exact decimal number to be displayed as XML. i.e 0.263746 should not be displayed as 0.26375 in XML.
    Do you have any suggestions ?

    Float_to_XML.vi ‏7 KB

    I tested it and could not see your problem in Labview 2009. So it is perhaps a bug in your Labview version. You can use this VI as a workaround.
    Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted

  • Floating-point numbers: min value

    Hi,
    the number wrapper classes each define a MAX_VALUE and a MIN_VALUE constant. While the MIN_VALUE of non-floating point numbers are negative numbers, the MIN_VALUE of the floating point numbers are the smallest postive numbers.
    From the Javadoc:
    Float:
    MAX_VALUE:
    A constant holding the largest positive finite value of type float, (2-2-23)�2127. It is equal to the hexadecimal floating-point literal 0x1.fffffeP+127f and also equal to Float.intBitsToFloat(0x7f7fffff).
    MIN_VALUE:
    A constant holding the smallest positive nonzero value of type float, 2-149. It is equal to the hexadecimal floating-point literal 0x0.000002P-126f and also equal to Float.intBitsToFloat(0x1).
    MAX_VALUE:
    A constant holding the largest positive finite value of type double, (2-2-52)�21023. It is equal to the hexadecimal floating-point literal 0x1.fffffffffffffP+1023 and also equal to Double.longBitsToDouble(0x7fefffffffffffffL).
    MIN_VALUE:
    A constant holding the smallest positive nonzero value of type double, 2-1074. It is equal to the hexadecimal floating-point literal 0x0.0000000000001P-1022 and also equal to Double.longBitsToDouble(0x1L).
    Can someone tell me the MAX_NEGATIVE_VALUE (the finite negative value with the largest absolute value) and the MIN_NEGATIVE_VALUE (the negative value with the smallest nonzero absolute value) of float and double (using the xxxBitsToXxx-methods)?
    Thanks!
    -Puce

    The IEEE754 format is symmetric with respect to the sign, so -MAX_VALUE
    and -MIN_VALUE are the values you're looking for.
    kind regards,

  • Generate a point numbering sequnce like 1.1, 1.2

    I need to write a program that defines a range of numbers like 1 to 5 and then generates a point numbering scheme like 1.1, 1.2. At a later stage I should also be able to have a scheme that goes deeper like 1.1.1, 1.1.2.
    This is the code I'm using for the regular number sequence:
    public class NumbersSequence{
        public int start;
        public int end;
        /** Creates a new instance of NumbersSequence */
        public NumbersSequence() {
         public void setRange(int s, int e){
            this.start=s;
            this.end=e;
        public int getEnd(){
            return this.end;
        public intgetStart(){
            return this.start;
        public static void main(String [] args){
            numbererObj=new NumbersSequence();
            numbererObj.setRange(1,25);
            int startRange=numbererObj.getStart();
            int endRange=numbererObj.getEnd();

            ArrayList list=new ArrayList();
            for(int i=startRange;i<=endRange;i++){

            //start a sequence of numbers based upon the range
           System.out.println("Starting Numbering Scheme");
           ListIterator listIterator= list.listIterator();
            while(listIterator.hasNext()){
                Object nextItem=listIterator.next();
               System.out.println(nextItem);
    }Generating a simple sequence of numbers based on a range is pretty simple using a loop and two methods that set the range and get the range, I'm just not sure how to start with this one.
    I appreciate any help I can get with this.

    Below is how it has to be done roughly... You have to go with as others have said..
      public static void main(String [] args){
              NumbersSequence numbererObj=new NumbersSequence();
              numbererObj.setRange(1,25);
              int startRange=numbererObj.getStart();
              int endRange=numbererObj.getEnd();
              System.out.println("Start range: " + startRange + " End Range: " + endRange);
              ArrayList list=new ArrayList();
              int count=-1;
              for(int i=startRange;i<=endRange;i++){
                   count++;

  • Table numbering confusion and how to link to tables in a book/document?

    More questions :-(
    Table numbering confusion...
    I'm porting over (from MS Word) a document that has a bunch of tables in it.
    The document currently looks something like this:
    1 Major heading
    1.1 Sub heading
    text for that sub heading that refers to a table that follows (or may preceed) such as see Table 1-1 that follows
    Table 1-1
    Row 1/Column 1 content   Column 2 content   Column 3 content
    Row 2/Column 1 content   etc....            etc.
    Row 3                    etc.               etc.
    1.2 Next sub heading
    Text to follow that sub head that references Table 1-2 below...
    Table 1-2
    Row 1/Column 1 content   Column 2 content   Column 3 content
    Row 2/Column 1 content   etc....            etc.
    Row 3                    etc.               etc.
    2 Major heading
    2.1 Next sub heading
    Text to follow that sub head that references Table 2-1 below...
    Table 2-1
    Row 1/Column 1 content   Column 2 content   Column 3 content
    Row 2/Column 1 content   etc....            etc.
    Row 3                    etc.               etc.
    3 Major heading
    3.1 Next sub heading
    etc.
    Hopefully that makes sense.
    Currently it seems that the tables are numbered based on the chapter number with the chapter apparently being set at 2.
    I need the tables to instead use numbering based on the heading (Titles) numbers, but can't seem to figure out how to get the numbers set for the tables as I would want them to be.
    What do I need to do to make the table numbers reset based on the paragraph numbers (subchapters if you would refer to them that way...)
    Thanks again!

    What is the paragraph format of "Table 2-1" lines?
    Table numbering is commonly controlled by two things:
    1. Format > Paragraph > Paragraph Designer
    [table title para name]
    [ Numbering]
    and
    2. Format > Document > Numbering
    The default in Frame is that tables have titles of para fmt "TableTitle", but tables can switch that off, and also be anchored to paragraphs (often Headings) of any arbitrary format name and numbering scheme.
