Why do I get jumbled text when pasting a graph from Excel (mac 2011) into Illustrator cs6

The Goal: To copy a graph from Excel (mac 2011) and paste it into Illustrator cs6 as a vector graphic.
The graph's vector and layout is okay. Yet, the text / copy is jumbled text:
$%"
$#!!!!"
Do I have to change a preference in either Excel or Illustrator?
Thank you!

In Excel, right click and choose Format Chart Area. In the dialog at the left, choose Fonts. Change the font to Arial or something other than Calibri (Theme Body). Then copy/paste.

  • Text getting cut off when printing to PDF from Excel

    Hello,
         I've seen a lot related to this subject but nothing that shows a real solution.
         Using Excel 2003-sp3 and Adobe Acrobat v.9 Standard, the right half of the last character in the string gets cut off. It prints from excel fine.
         It's not always the text that is the right-most on the page either. An affected PDF file is attached - note the cut off "S" on the last line (NET ASSETS OF GOVERNMENTAL ACTIVITIES).
         Any assistance is appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Why would someone not receive my acceptance notification being sent from Outlook Mac 2011?

    I am using Microsoft Outlook for Mac 2011, version 14.1.2 (110505) on Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    When I accept a meeting invitation, my My Day window and my Outlook Calendar are both instantly populated with the event however the sender of the meeting does not receive confirmation of my acceptance. The acceptance auto-sent-message independently presents itself into my Outlook Deleted Items folder. The same happens when I click Tentative and Decline.
    How can I ensure the organiser is notified of my R.S.V.P.? How do I make sure they receive my notification?
    The Preferance pane settings for Notifications & Sounds doesn't indicate any hint as to what would be the obvious reason other than to display an alert on my desktop, bounce the Outlook icon in the Dock, have sounds assigned to mailbox behaviours, and have the ability to reset alerts.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem? How did you resolve it?

  • Why do I get "Fuzzy Text" when printing from the web?

    A short time ago I was able to print text from Internet webpages and my school website. Now the text is coming out fuzzy when I try to print. I can print Word and PDF documents OK. But not PDF documents saved from the websites.

    In Excel, right click and choose Format Chart Area. In the dialog at the left, choose Fonts. Change the font to Arial or something other than Calibri (Theme Body). Then copy/paste.

  • Why do I get this error when specifying a parameter from the URL?

    Hello,
    I am trying to "install" a parameter in a page, so that it's value can be specified in the URL and a VO updated according to this value.
    Here's is the page definition file, with an executable and a binding to a method call:
    <executables>
    <invokeAction Binds="prepareMainMenuView1" id="invokeQuery"
    Refresh="prepareModel"/>
    </executables>
    <methodAction id="prepareMainMenuView1"
    InstanceName="AppModuleDataControl.dataProvider"
    DataControl="AppModuleDataControl" RequiresUpdateModel="true"
    Action="invokeMethod" MethodName="prepareMainMenuView1"
    IsViewObjectMethod="true">
    <NamedData NDName="param" NDValue="#{param.root_menu}"
    NDType="java.lang.String"/>
    </methodAction>
    if I run the MyMenu application with:
    http://127.0.0.1:7101/MyMenu-ViewController-context-root/faces/menu?root_menu=anything
    then I get this exception:
    ADF: Adding the following JSF error message: String index out of range: -1
    java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1
    Do you know why? Where do I fail?
    I followed the isntruction here:
    http://www.jasonsdevelopercorner.com/?p=65
    So far I have not been able to read a parameter in a way, do you have any example on how can I use parameters from URL from within a single page in an unbounded task flow?
    I worked all the day on this, but with no luck.
    Thanks

    I solved the problem. The invoked method was not part of the VO, but was part of the AM.

  • Why am i getting an error when trying to upgrade from 10.7.5 to 10.9

    This would indicate that your MacBook Air does not meet the requirements for Mavericks.
    To install Mavericks, you need one of these Macs:
    iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
    MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
    MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later),
    MacBook Pro (15-inch or 17-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or later)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Your Mac also needs:
    OS X Mountain Lion, Lion, or Snow Leopard v10.6.8 already installed
    2 GB or more of memory
    8 GB or more of available space

  • Why do I get "Publish Failed" when I select F4V with fixed frame rate?

    I have created several projects from scratch in Captivate 5. My publishing functionality seems to be increasingly impaired. I have rebooted and uninstalled + reinstalled Captivate 5.
    In the beginning I got this message when I was publishing a specific project with the media option F4V with fixed frame rate, but now I am getting it on all my projects regardless of my publishing selections.
    I am running on Windows 7, and I think it is Windows that is suggesting that I 'debug' the program. Clicking 'Debug' takes me to a dialog box where I can choose between Visual Studio 2005 or Visual Studio 2008, none of which seem to be a good solution.
    Here is a print of my publishing options:

    Chinmay Baid,
    Thank you for your reply - over the past few days I have been able to
    narrow the problem down a little more.
    When working with Captivate 5, I am able to work with and open any
    published file until I turn that file into a Zip file.  Upon unZipping,
    the file becomes unusable by my computer and by my LMS (Cornerstone).
    I am using Adobe Flash Professional CS5 and I am able to run any SWF file
    on my machine if the file has never been zipped.  I am using Captivate 5
    in administrator mode.  Somehow, the zip process is making the files
    unusable, and my LMS requires that files be zipped before they can be
    uploaded.
    Thank you for any advice or help you may be able to offer.

    Hi,
    Can you please give the following details :
    Can you please check and tell the Flash player version
    (plugin,activex,standalone) installed on your machine?
    Also, are you able to play the standalone SWF on your machine?
    Did you launch Adobe Captivate 5 in administrator mode?
    Above information might be helpful for further investigation.

  • TS1702 "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unabailable" Why am I getting this message when I try to updaate itunes or quicktime?

    The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unabailable" Why am I getting this message when I try to updaate itunes or quicktime?

    Before trying the update again, use Microsoft's Fix it solution at http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall. Use it to uninstall iTunes and Quicktime. It bypasses this not uncommon problem. When the solution finishes, the selected program will be uninstalled. It can take several minutes and I have seen as much as half an hour.
    After iTunes & Quicktime are uninstalled, try the update again.

  • Why am I getting an error when I place two OAM files one after the other in different pages?

    Why am I getting an error when I place two OAM files one after the other in different pages? They do not load or play correctly.  They are both configured to play automatically with a .125 second delay and both have a white rectangle "poster" over for a hidden effect.

    Thanks for the idea, Scott! I initially tried your idea, but my OAM files were still not loading correctly.  I tried other combinations of OAM files, and it seems to work fine.
    Back to my original OAM files: I made sure that my elements in my Edge Animate project had different names. I originally copied parts of some elements from one to another, and I think it was confusing to DPS to read it.

    You can use a different player than the Windows Media Player to play the songs if you copied them from a CD to avoid that.
