Trouble with grey boxes around certain text or words
We are having trouble with some of our
InDesign files. When the text is flowed in from Word there are grey outline boxes showing up around certain words or phrases. We have been working with the preferences and also the dictionary and nothing seems to fix our problem.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help!
Did you open the hyperlinks panel and delete the links, or change the highlight? You have to change the highlights one at a time, I think. (I hate Word's automatic hyperling nonsense).

Export to WORD - what's with these boxes around the text?
Post Author: Emily
CA Forum: Exporting
I am new to CR. I am using version 10.0.0.533 We use CR with ClearQuest for problem reporting and other data collection.
Rational (ClearQuest Vendor) tells me it's a CR X problem.
I use a CR report exported to MS WORD as a template for taking meeting minutes. With our old CR version, the ClearQuest export was great and I was able to add text into the report. With CR X, the report in MS WORD comes out in text boxes and editting this output is not pretty. I do not want the boxes, I just want free flowing text as if I had written a WORD doc so I can edit it easily during the meetings. I have tried export to text, copy, paste but I loose all of the formatting. I have tried HTML and then copy, paste, but this is even worse than the text output. RTF also has the text in boxes.
Someone out there MUST have run into this problem also. Help me...Post Author: kepner

When i add text to PDFs and work on the file for awhile, my red added text starts to turn into red X's with a box around them. I have OCRs turned off, i have the latest update, and i have registered the product. What is happening to my text while i'm working on these files? On top of this, my red arrows get moved around also.
Hi ,
Could you please update me with few details like what version of Acrobat are you using?
What OS do you work on ?
Do you experience this any particular PDF or happens with all of them?
Did you try the same with turning on the OCR ?Please check the same and compare the outputs .Does that help you in anyway ?
If the file is not confidential ,could you please share the file with us so that we can analyse it our end and revert you with the appropriate answer .
Please share the file on [email protected] and please cc [email protected] as well .

Is there a way to create menus without boxes around the text?
I'm fairly new to Muse, but I'm hung up on this one issue. I'd like to insert a text menu without the boxes around the text.
What I have tried:
Dragged in a horizontal menu from the Widget Library to my header for my master menu. I've spent over an hour trying to find a way to make the surrounding boxes go away, but can't. I realize that I can insert text, and link the text to particular pages, but I don't want to have to do this if at all possible.
Thank you!Hi
You can use No Fill for menu items and define same for all states :
Also if there is stroke value, you can lower down to 0 which would remove any border weight.
Let me know if I am missing something here.
Thanks,

Hyperlinks show up with a box around them in Pages 2 PDF's.
I am excited that web links now show up as hyperlinks. However, when I export a .pdf of the document, the hyperlinks end up with a box around them that makes them unreadable.
Any idea how to get rid of the box. It doesn't show up in the original document. Only when you view invisibles.

you are right with your thought. I am thankful for every info to get better in every way. The posts in the Pages Discussions are easy to understand and so it should be. Wow, I can tell you, that this is very different to some 3D forums.
After I know how to start the English version of Pages (thank you Matthias, this was a very good advice), I think most people can follow my explanations better, without the time of waiting for your title translations

Why is my computer displaying A's with boxes around them instead of words?
Why is my computer displaying A's with boxes around them instead of words? Is this the malware virus of today? I can get on the internet but just can't read anything. Please help!
Back up all data.
Launch the Font Book application and validate all fonts. You must select the fonts in order to validate them. See the built-in help and the support article linked below for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them, then boot in safe mode* (by holding down the shift key at the startup chime) to rebuild the font caches. Boot again as usual and test.
Mac 101: Font Book
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode. In that case, after running Font Book, launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. After running the command, reboot as usual. -

Framemaker 9 PDF exports with red boxes around text areas
I have a doc, made in FM 7, using version 9
When I make a PDF i get boxes around some of the text. It wasn't there during FM design.
example
(see red)
Please helpAxialInfo wrote:
you might consider saving the FM file as MIF and then looking at the MIF using the wonderful freebie MIFBrowser, from Graham Wideman, from here:
Wideman Adobe FrameMaker Topics
to find the problem area do a search for the string that is in the title
"Downblast Centrifugal
Exhaust Ventilator
Roof Mounted
Belt Drive"
although just pasting it here it looks like you might have soft carriage returns in it which will make it necessary to just search for the two-word segments.
After you find the phrase, use the left navigation area to walk "up" the MIF file, looking for the specific structure that those words are in (is it a text box, or rather a graphic frame inside a text box, correct?) Is this an anchored frame, or is it just floating? If it's anchored, where is it anchored?
In the MIF, see if you can identify any odd sounding properties of the text box or graphic frame. The MIF reference manual is a PDF found in the FM documentation folder.
Also, one other possibility is that there's something funky with the red swash that goes across the page that's somehow "contaminating" the text frame. What kind of graphic type is the red swash? Could you take a copy of the FM file and remove the swash and then make a PDF, to see if that solves the red outline.
edit: additional questions: are the swash and the text frame on the body page or on the master page? When Arnis suggested checking for graphics behind the text frame, did you also check the master page(s) as well as the body pages?

Grey boxes around my flash elements?
I currently run a website that is set up with several flash
elements butted up next to each other using tables (
http://www.deltasoniccarwash.com).
This method used to be fine. The tables were invisible to the user.
With the latest update of internet explorer this is no longer the
case for pc users. Now when my site is viewed in Explorer 7 (on a
PC) grey boxes appear highlighting my table when a user scrolls
over them. My flash rollovers do not work until a person clicks
into the box. I've looked at several other flash sites and this
problem is not seeming to affect them. Can someone please point out
what I'm doing wrong. Thank You.Geez... two years now it's been like this and this question
is _still_ being
asked. Go figure... Just use SWFObject.

Why are there boxes around the text on my iPhone?
I have had this problem for a while now. Whenever I press either the home or sleep button and try to unlock it, there is a black box that appears around the time and date. When I swipe, a box forms around the text that says "swipe to unlock". Can anyone help me diagnose this problem please? I don't have any valuable information on the phone so I am open to resetting it if necessary.
Thanks for your time!

Trouble with "add note to replace text" annotation
When I use "Add note to replace text" in Reader XI, the note acts as if it is locked even though it is not. The Locked box is not checked, but yet the options are grayed out; and I cannot delete the note, though I can edit the text box. "Strikethrough" and "Insert text at cursor" work fine.
I am using the latest update of XI and have uninstalled and reinstalled it several times; I've also tried various older versions of XI. It happens with documents I've created or documents others have created; it happens on docs created from Word or those created from InDesign; it happens on docs downloaded several years ago as well as ones from the past month.
I CAN delete these add-and-replace notes if I receive a file with them already put there by someone else--I just can't delete my own that I am adding right now. When I send the pdf to other people they have the same problem--in fact, someone told me that in her case ALL of my notes appear locked, not just the Add note to replace text one--yet when I send it to her, on my side, I have not locked any of them.
Also, I do seem to be able to delete my own annotations I put on documents fairly recently--I have files from Sept 9 and Sept 17 that I can do this. But if I try to add notes to those same docs now, they act just like all the other ones--I cannot delete those particular notes and they appear locked.
Help please!!You could write an html-text file that revers to the image file
after that you could even convert this html-file to an rtfd file (which is a package after all) using textutil -

When I save a Word document as a PDF file and open it, some of the boxes around the text don't show
Hello,
I currently have Abobe Reader X (10.1.2) on Windows 7 and I need to save a Word document currently in A3 as a PDF file to print in A4. For some documents I have no problem printing and all of the text, images, boxes, lines etc. all show up no problem, except for 2 documents where there is a problem. The document fits onto the screen perfectly.
Please help! ThanksReader is unable to create PDF files. You must be using some other product, and therefore should post your question in that product's forums.

That's ugly in so many ways...
This:
JComboBox[] jComboBoxParts = new JComboBox[partsString.length];does not do what you think it does. Instead, it creates an array of JComboBoxes initialized to the length of elements in your string array. So instead of a single JComboBox capable of holding 5 elements (which is what you were trying to do), you created 5 JComboBoxes capable of holding n elements.
What you want to do is something like this:
import javax.swing.*;
class Demo extends JFrame {
private JComboBox box;
public Demo() {
initComponents();
private void initComponents() {
String[] items = { "oil can", "windshield", "tires", "v6 cylinder head", "fuse" };
box = new JComboBox(items);
this.getContentPane().add(box);
this.pack();
this.setSize(200, 60);
this.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
this.setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
this.setTitle("Combox Box Demo");
public static void main(String[] argv) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
new Demo().setVisible(true);
}Another alternative, if you don't have the array of strings available when you instantiate your JComboBox, you could do something like this:
String items = { "oil can", "brakes", "windshield", "tail light", "something else", "blah", "more blah" };
for( String item : items )
myJComboBox.addItem(item);
