Vertical text in PDF- XSL-FO

Hi Guys,
We are trying to display a vertical text is a column in a PDF file. ( 90 o rotation of horizontal test).
Is it possible in XSL-FO transformation? Could you please throw some light on this?
(As we have lot of columns we are not able to display the column headings horizontally. )
Thanks in anticipation
Regards
Rajesh

You have two questions here.
1. Can you have rotated text in PDF?
2. Is there an XSL-FO construct to produce that?
3.
three questions...
3. There must be a third question here about Java Programming somewhere.

  • Vertical Text in PDF using CFDOCUMENT

    I am using font tag in a CSS file to layout a table header
    using vertical text. In HTML, the vertical text looks fine.
    However, when I convert the table to a pdf using
    <cfdocument>, the vertical text is displayed as horizintal
    text and does not follow the css specified font family, color or
    size.
    Here is the line in the CCS I am referencing:
    .header_vertical {FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 8pt;
    FONT-STYLE: normal; writing-mode:tb-rl; FONT-FAMILY: helvetica,
    arial, verdana, sans-serif; TEXT-DECORATION: none; COLOR: #0f437c}
    This is CFMX7 on a Windows Server 2003 OS running IIS.
    Any ideas???
    Thanks.

    Hi there, did you find a solution to this?
    I had the same issue and no matter what i tried it didn't
    work. I found out that CFDOCUMENT doesn't support CSS2.
    Eventually I came up with a clunky solution, but had no other
    choice. I bought some imaging software called Alagad (
    http://www.alagad.com) which
    produces the vertical text as images on the fly. Its not ideal, but
    there was no ther way I could disply the text.
    Hope this helps you.

  • Vertical text in charts appears upside-down in Acrobat pdf

    When I copy a chart with vertical text from Tableau into Word and then Save as Adobe PDF, the vertical text appears upside-down.
    When I copy a chart with vertical text from Tableau into Word and then Save as PDF using Word's built in PDF creator, the vertical text appears correctly.
    This bug occurs in both Adobe Acrobat 11 and Acrobat Pro DC. Can Adobe fix this bug?

    Never mind. I solved the problem myself. It turns out I needed to embed the font I used in the text boxes. Once I did that, everything shows up fine.

  • Vertical Text in PowerPoint saved as a PDF

    I just created a document in PowerPoint with vertical text.  When I saved the document, some of the vertical text and rotated back to horizontal changing the format of my document. Is there a way to save a PowerPoint document as PDF without changing the vertical text.

    I think you really need to ask that in a Microsoft Office forum.

  • Vertical text and Spotlight

    I'm not sure whether this topic is more InDesign, PDF or MacOSX related.
    See this document.
    Is it possible to make the number in the bottom left corner, searchable for Spotlight (MAC).
    The number is set vertically due to corporate guidelines.
    The file doesn't show up with a Spotlight search for that number.
    In Acrobat, the text is fully searchable. Even MAC's own Preview app can find the vertical text, which makes me wonder why Spotlight doesn't index it.
    Even google seems to index the vertical text.
    I don't want to add the number to the filename either, because we have strict file naming conventions to keep everything clear.
    Thanks in advance!

    Meanwhile I did some tests.
    It appears rotated text IS spotlight-searchable, BUT words are seperated in parts.
    For example: the text "ROTATED"
    At 30°, spotlight finds the file until i type the "E" character.
    30°: ROTAT - ED
    60°: ROTA - TED
    90°: RO - TA - TE - D
    It seems to split the words, and spotlight sees the parts as different words.
    While acrobat, mac preview etc. can search any combination characters, spotlight needs the first character of the word (it would never find "OME WOR" when "SOME WORDS" is in the file).
    I tried using tags, hyperlinks / bookmarks, script labels etc, many different PDF export options (PDF tags, invisble objects, PDF versions,…).
    I also played with some InDesign text controls that could cause the text splitting, like kerning/tracking settings, opentype features, hyphenation turned off...
    Also with mirroring (mirrored text is indexed by the way), vertical text in a non-rotated table.
    None of the above made the file spotlight-searchable.
    Opening the PDF in Illustrator shows the the text as 1 part, so I don't know why spotlight sees the words as seperate parts.
    John's invisible text-option looks like the solution to go with.
    Perhaps the "linked content" feature in can handle this, to make sure the visible and invisble text is always synced. (just switched from CS5.5, and didn't test that feature yet).

  • How to change text in PDF doc. which is a musical score

    Hello,
    I'm new here, so please excuse me if I do or say something I shouldn't.
    I need to change the words in a musical score because the font is too small. OCR recognition doesn"t work because there are illustrations that are different from images or text... Is there a way to get in there and make the changes I need to do?
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the reply, but I have Adobe Reader 9 Pro. Will it still not 
    work ?

    How can I digitalize a document text in PDF and export it to WORD?

    If you already have a PDF document, ExportPDF can help you with this task. https://www.acrobat.com/exportpdf/en/convert-pdf-to-word.html
    On the other hand, if you have a physical document, you'll need to scan it into a PDF document first.
    Depending on what you need to do you may require different tools & services, so please help us out with more details.

  • Changing the seeded rdf report output from text to PDF

    Hi All,
    I am trying to change the seeded report "Print Requisition Report" output from text to PDF. I changed the output format in the concurrent program definition from text to pdf. The report is now getting displayed in pdf format, but the alignment of the fields are changed. The output is not printing as it was printing while in the text output format. The output looks very sloppy, with uneven fonts and too much of text wrapping.
    I tried some formatting and fields are somehow getting displayed but doesnt look in proper format. I am not able to change the font style in the report builder 6i, even if i change it is printing in the same font style with uneven font size. I think reducing the font size might help, but i am unable to change.We are on 11.5.10.2. Please provide your valuable suggestions on how to go about.
    Thanks
    Sarvesh

    Hi Hussein,
    Thanks for the information. After the adjustments in the layout and the font change the report is now getting displayed without any clipping when clicked on view output. But when the same report is printed some characters on the left and and right side is getting clipped. Please help on how to solve this issue.
    Thanks,
    Sarvesh

  • How to write a unicode text in pdf file

    Dear Friends,
    I am a beginner in acrobat pdf plug-in development. I was trying to write a unicode text (Tamil text) into pdf file.
    Using same api I am able to write english text in time-roman, areal etc fonts. But I am not able to write tamil texts.
    The code is as below:
            memset(&pdeFontAttrs, 0, sizeof(pdeFontAttrs));
            pdeFontAttrs.name = ASAtomFromString("Latha");
            pdeFontAttrs.type = ASAtomFromString("TrueType");
            pdeFont    = PDEFontCreateFromSysFont(                                        \
                            PDFindSysFont(&pdeFontAttrs, sizeof(pdeFontAttrs), 0),    \
                            kPDEFontCreateEmbedded);
            pdeText = PDETextCreate();
            PDETextAdd(pdeText, kPDETextRun, 0, (ASUInt8 *)buffer, _tcslen(buffer),
                                    pdeFont, &gState, sizeof(gState), NULL, 0, &textMatrix, NULL);
            PDEContentAddElem(pdeContent, kPDEAfterLast, (PDEElement)pdeText);
            PDPageSetPDEContent(pdPage, gExtensionID);  
            PDPageReleasePDEContent (pdPage, gExtensionID);
    KIndly assume that PDEGraphicsState and PDETextMatrix are set properly set, I am not pasting entire code to avoid complexity.
    Thank you,
    Safiq

  • Why can't I "Save as Text" a pdf file received as an email attachment?

    I can "Save as text" a pdf file which I have created in my own computer (that is, it goes into MS notebook that I then can Copy and Save as an MS Word file) but not when I receive a pdf as an email attachment. (The file is saved, but it is empty.) Why would I want to convert my own pdf back to text? Well, in case I no longer have the original Word document I suppose, but the thing is "Save as text" works with my pdf, but not with those I recieve from others. How come? Thanks!

    Is this a scanned PDF? If so, it must first be OCR'd.

  • Randomly Missing Text in PDF Created from FrameMaker

    This problem relates to a structured FM document, but I suspect it might be a general issue and have posted it here in the general forum for that reason.
    I am generating PDFs that are missing text somewhat randomly throughout. I tried searching the forum for solutions, but none of the suggested fixes worked and none of the posts specifically addressed the issue I am experiencing.
    I am working in structured FM. The templates we use were originally created for FM8. We use both FM8 and FM10 in our work group. We are able to duplicate the same problem in both versions and on multiple computers.
    I thought I had narrowed the problem down to certain paragraph formatting, since it only ocurs in three or four paragraph formats (a bullet list, table text, etc.) Garden variety formatting. But in most places in the document, these formats appear perfectly. The strangest occurence is a single intance where the page number is missing from the footer.
    I thought it might be a font issue, as I've had similar issues in the past. I had a missing font warning in the console, but I am pretty sure that this has nothing to do with it, since they are fonts we are not using and all the other text from the same formats appears.
    I tried turning off "Remember Missing Font Names" in preferences. No help.
    I checked that the fonts are in the local directory and appear as embedded subsets in the PDF.
    I also tried checking and unchecking the "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts" option in the PDF output settings. Also no help.
    The randomness of the missing fonts bewilders me and I've exhausted my own troubleshooting abilities. I would be happy to share a source file if anyone thinks they could help me that way.
    Thanks in advance,
    Douglas
