Unable to removed rules around picture boxes

Using CS3. Fairly new user of InDesign. It appears that the weight of rule around a box s set at zero. However a rule still appears around the picture. Not all boxes appear to have this, so it would seem that there is a setting somewhere which sets this as a default. Can anyone please help a new user with this. Thanks.

When you say it appears, do you mean on screen or in print?
If in print, make sure that in addition to being set to zero weight that the stroke is also set to None color -- generally, these two are linked together behind the scenes, but it is possible to have one without the other. Logic in (some?) PostScript RIPs impose a minimum weight of 0.25 points to prevent very light strokes from becoming completely invisible -- this is what can cause a zero-weight but colored stroke to appear in print.
If on screen, you're probably mistaking the frame edge display for a stroke. Use View/Hide Stroke Edges to convince yourself there's no stroke (or switch to a preview view). After that, it's a matter of personal preference whether you have stroke edges on or off.

Rule around text boxes?

How do we remove the rule around text boxes?

Hi graphicscoordinator,
There currently isn't a option in FormsCentral to remove the rule that appears around text fields. There is a Feature Request form where you can sumbit your request for this feature, however. Visit https://adobeformscentral.com/?f=XnF-KJVCovcEVQz9tZHYPQ.

EPSs from CS4 artboards appear incorrectly in Quark picture boxes

I produced a set of maps in AI CS4, then exported the artboards as individual CS3 or CS3 EPS files. When my client opens the files in Quark Xpress picture boxes, they just see a white screen - they have to use the hand tool to drag the drawing within the picture box so the intended artwork comes into view. I tested the files in Quark 6.1 and got the same results.
Now I used to do this to my client all the time - when exporting FreeHand files to Illustrator (and in fact, before finishing in CS4 I started these maps in FreeHand) I'd leave some stray piece of art by page 1, then when I exported page 5 (saving a copy of the file and erasing all the other pages) the art would appear in Quark with the stray art at 0,0, and the intended artwork waaaay off to the right. Not a nice thing to do to a paying client doing book layout, so I take care not to leave stray art in my final files. And I check in Illustrator for stray art outside the artboard.
When I open THIS art in CS3 or CS4, and "select all," when I zoom out I find NO stray art that would cause the EPS to offset. All the layers are "on" and unlocked, so there shouldn't be any artwork I would not be able to select. I was under the impression that when "use artboards" is selected during import, CS4's marvelous multiple artboards are supposed to export only what's on the artboard (or overlaps it). And this seems to be the case. But is there some sort of setting or hidden data that didn't get the message?
In the past when I saved an AI or FH file with stray art as a raster format, theTIFF or JPG includes the entire area with any art in it. When I export these AI files as TIFF they cropped to the artboard. BUT when I email one of the EPSs, Mail displays the image super small and super wide, confirming it thinks there's some stray art or a stray setting.
If there's some invisible artwork OR improper setting, I haven't found it yet. Any ideas? Has any one discovered a similar problem?
Thanks!
P.S. Thanks to JET, Mordy and others for your help figuring out multiple artboards this winter!

Hi All! Thanks for your feedback, including sloppy art. Some sloppiness is inherent in the process of cobbling together and updating guidebook maps (copying art from better art/overlapping areas rather than redrawing it again) but some is optional. Usually it's findable and fixable.
Having discovered the problem was related to stray art, and determined it was impossible to erase (i.e. locally buggy) I solved my immediate problem by copy-pasting JUST the art in the artboard onto a fresh page. I had not done this before because I thought AI was UNABLE to paste artwork and copy it to (remember) the layers the art started out on. Turns out it CAN, and has been able to do so for years, but the setting in the layers panel pulldown menu is turned OFF by default. Oh.
I clicked my ruby red shoes together, turned this setting on, and was able to copy the art, layers and all. Although I was out of the office yesterday, my client was able to fix the rest of the files in-house after I explained where to find this setting.
In FreeHand the "paste remembers layers" setting is in one of the Preferences panels (another logical place to put it). Figuring such an obvious feature MIGHT exist, rather than looking at AI's preferences panels, upgrade after upgrade, and wondering why Adobe hadn't yet added it, on a whim I looked up "layers" in the index of the Illustrator CS3 Manual, and there it is on page 306.
(The manual, purchased separately from Adobe, is a fairly handy little book and sometimes it's easier to find stuff that's called by different names than by browsing online help).
My maps don't use symbol libraries because I started them in FreeHand and some of the source art goes back a good 8 years; redoing the page-sized maps with libraries is arguably less practical than simply maintaining it. I like the directness of grabbing a particular symbol and editing it (even if there is the occasional tradeoff of having to adjust all hundred of them). I do need to play around with symbol libraries - this client has a solid enough set of styles that they'd be a good test case. (I used to work with xrefs in AutoCAD so generally get the concept).

Unable to send or receive pictures

I am unable to send or receive pictures. Everytime I tried to send or receive on I get an error message saying download error. How can I fix this? I have a Droid Incredible.
Thanks

Hi Tonique,
I understand the importance of using picture messaging on your device! I would like to ask a couple of questions.
Are you using a third-party messaging application? If so, I would recommend uninstalling it and trying again. If you are successful in sending and receiving after doing so, then the application is the source of the issue.
Did this issue just start happening? Or has it been an ongoing issue?
I do want to let you know that you can check in your online account and see if you have picture messaging blocked. The information is located in the service blocks section. Below I have provided you with the steps.
Sign to My Verizon at http://www.vzw.com .
Locate the I Want To... section.
Select More Actions.
In the Safety & Security column, click Set Usage Controls.
Click the Usage Controls tab.
Scroll down to the Service Blocks section.
Click Explore.
Select the appropriate line from the Blocks For: drop-down.
Select check box next to the service(s) you wish to add or remove blocking.
Click Continue.
Click Close.
Please let us know if you need further assistance. We are happy to assist you.

How do I get images to automatically center in a picture box?

How do I get images to automatically center in a picture box (e.g. place a picture box on a master page and set it so that any image placed inside will automatically center, but not scale)? This was a simple procedure in CS5 (set "Fitting Options" to 'center' by clicking on the center box in the 9-box centering tool) but seems to have disappeared in CS6/CC. Am I missing something?

Hi and thanks. Actually, my problem is with setting the properties of the image frame to 'align center' before an image is placed, allowing me to place large numbers of images and having them automatically center instead of me centering each one manually. Even when I create an object style the frame will not hold any alignment settings and apply them to the image being placed (unless some manner of scaling has been chosen, which is not something I want). There are work-arounds I have used but it would be nice to be able to just put a picture box on a master page, set it to align it's contents to the center and just be done with it . Thanks though.

How does one remove dates from pictures?

I accidentally set my camera to show the date on each picture. When I uploaded the pictures to my computer, I am unable to remove the dates from each picture. Is there a way to do this without having to use a "blemish" tool?
Thanks in advance!!

You can not - you had the camera include the date as a part of the image so the only way to remove it is to retouch it out with a photo editing program - it is no different than removing a power line or a person from the photo - it is part of the image

Single image in multiple picture boxes / shapes

hi all,
can anyone help please?
i have several empty picture boxes (they're irregular shapes and all in close proximity to one another) and a single image.
i want the image to appear in the shapes, but not repeated. another way to put it - i want the various segments of the image separated with these shapes... However - i want all of the image to be visible - ie where the image ends at the edge of one shape, i want it to continue in the next image without any gap in the image!
This almost works using Scripts -> Make Grid.... but obviously the shapes I want are all different shapes and sizes, not just a flat grid.
I've tried pasting the image into each box and moving each around with the direct selection tool till they look right - but it isnt practical. im sure there's an easier way of doing it?
hope that makes sense!
thanks very much for your help in advance!!!!

What did you end up doing?
I was actually thinking about this this morning and came up with a way to make freeform shapes using the scissor technique and a supplementary drawn path.
First cut the image frame (and I moved the pieces apart to make it easier to work), then use the Pen tool to draw a random shape path connecting the open end points on one of the pieces, closing the path.
Now select all the points you just added with the Direct Select tool and copy, then paste a copy. You'll probably see an extra point beyond each of the end points you selected, so delete those, then select the path and Object > Paths > Reverse Path (I'm not certain this is necessary).
Move the path into the correct position against the other piece of the cut frame, then select both and Object > Paths > Join.

HP Photo Creations v3.7's Cards: How to remove the dropped shadow boxes for photos?

Hello.
In Cards' mode when adding photos, I get shadow drop boxes. How do I remove these shadow drop boxes around my photos?
Thank you in advance.

Hi Antdude.
There are several ways to remove the default "drop shadow" from a photo on your layout. The quickest is:
Select the Design Tools
Select the Photo Borders Tab
Select the photo
Click the first border preset (see screenshot below)
That preset applies the plain border style to the photo, removing any other border treatments as well. To remove just the shadow, open the Advanced Controls at the very bottom of the page, scroll down, and then click the No Shadow button.
These techniques work on graphics too.
Hope this helps,
