Word break problems when typing in Asian fonts like 'Nepali and Hindi'

Hi!
I have to type Nepali and Hindi words but the words break unnecessarily. Is there any option in InDesign CS4 to control it? I know very well that in Pagemaker these Nepali and Hindi words do not break but in InDesign. Why?
How to fix it? Any idea will be highly respected.
I'm using Vista 32-bit with SP2.
Thanks.

Option #1: do not hyphenate the text at all. You don't say if this is all Nepali/Hindi, or mainly English text with some foreign words -- if there is no English text at all, you could disable hyphenation entirely.
Option #2: Do Not Break. If you are using character styles for the Nepali/Hindi text (for example, because you need to change the font), you could apply No Break to the entire string. Don't do this if it's more than a few words, though (or treat the spaces inbetween differently).
Option #3: Create a GREP style with just No Break in it. Then apply this to Nepali/Hindi text runs only -- http://indesignsecrets.com/search-for-foreign-language-characters-in-text.php shows you how.

There must be a difference in the default word breaking algorithm. I wouldn't have guessed ID would break text with dedicedly foreign character sets applying its default hypenation rules, but there you go.

  • Since moving to Maverick and the new updated of Keynote, I have a constant problem when typing in a text box, the program crashes. Is there a bug fix for this. Drives me nuts.

    Since moving to Maverick and the new updated of Keynote, I have a constant problem when typing in a text box, the program crashes. Is there a bug fix for this. Drives me nuts. Like many who can type quite quickly but at secretarial level, the text box freezes, nothing works and you know what's coming...crash!
    This is most annoying. Is there bug fixes for this. Apparently I have the current updates and this problem still exists. Is it a Maverick bug or Keynote.

    How did you install Mavericks, as an update ontop of the previous OS or did you wipe the drive and install clean?

    You might start with:
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
    If the above reveals nothing helpful, then create a new user account. Log out of your account and log into the new account. Do the problems cease?

  • Email problem when typing in email addresses using Mail on the iPhone 3G

    Hi,
    I have a problem whilst typing in email addresses into the Mail App To: field. Basically, what's happening is this.
    When I first got the phone, I was using a Hotmail account as well as a Googlemail account which I had going through the Mail App, my hotmail address was used for work so on occassions, I would email my Hotmail account from the Mail App on my phone.
    The problem I have is that I now have a new Hotmail account and when I start to type the address into the To: field in Mail App, it still shows my old Hotmail account address rather than the one I am now using. I only now send to the new Hotmail address so I thought that it would replace the old one when I start typing the address in the To: field.
    Has anyone else found this at all? It's rather annoying as everytime, I have to type the whole address even though I have sent many recently and never send to the old Hotmail address anymore but the old address comes up as soon as I start to type the new address.
    Can anyone please help me on this?
    Many Thanks,
    Adam

    Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them.  You will always be asked for the password associated with this ID when updating apps, regardless of whether or not you are using this ID for current purchases.  The only way to stop this is to delete the old apps from your phone and iTunes and repurchase them with your current ID.
    Edit: to change the ID used for future purchases on your phone, go to Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in using the new ID.  As explained above, you will still be prompted with the old ID when updating apps purchase with the older ID.

  • How to solve the auto word break problem in Arabic language Flex project

    Hi, I'm using Flex SDK 3.5 to develop a game in Arabic. Now I have a problem with the auto word break on the TextArea Control.
    The output looks like this (Sorry I can't type arabic, so I use English instead)
    I don't know any A
    rabic text
    The expected outpit should be
    I don't know any
    Arabic text
    My settings of the textarea are fine in English version games. But just didn't work in Arabic. Any idea how to solve this problem? Thanks.

    Hi Rodger,
    Sorry to reopen this thread again. I was puzzled by the data format in Motion-DDK.
    From the Motion-DDK, if u32, i32 and f64 data are passed to and from the controller, a specific format must be followed as below:
    u32:
    u32 cmddata[x] = (WORD) (u32data ?16);
    cmddata[x + 1] = (u16) u32data;
    i32:
    i32 cmddata[x] = (WORD) (i32data ?16);
    cmddata[x + 1] = (i16) i32data;
    f64:
    f64—big endian order cmddata[x] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [3];
    cmddata[x + 1] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [2];
    cmddata[x + 2] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [1];
    cmddata[x + 3] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [0];
    f64—little endian order cmddata[x] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [0];
    cmddata[x + 1] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [1];
    cmddata[x + 2] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [2];
    cmddata[x + 3] = ((u16) (&f64data)) [3];
    My first question: is the "?" symbol means the >> (shift operator) or something else?
    The second question is: if "?" means ">>" in this list, all the u32 and i32 data are always transferred in big-endian order. Is it the only correct way to deliver the i32 and u32 data? Or I can pass the u32 and i32 either in little-order or big-order depending on my platform?
    The last one: could you provide a feasible C code on how to convert the f64 data to u16?
    I first followed the format in the list to convert the f64 data, but met with a lot of compiler errors in VC++. After checked with MSDN, it is said the convert process is double(f64)->long(i32)->unsigned short(u16). But the decimal part of double will be truncated during converting to long...
    So, could you help me with some very simple sample code on the convert process? 
    Thank you for your support!

  • After updating to v. 6.X.X, vertical lines appear around the cursor when typing in webpages such as Gmail and Facebook that persist, obscuring text and other pixels in the webpage. Didn't happen before this update.

    I noticed after updating to Firefox version 6.0.1 that vertical lines the same size and shape as the text cursor remain behind on the screen as the cursor moves (either while typing or by using arrow keys). This is most obvious and annoying in text-heavy applications such as when typing in Gmail, Facebook, and work webmail, for instance. (Interestingly, it's not happening now as I type this.)
    This is very annoying because these lines obscure parts or even entire letters in words that have been typed. I thought that it might have been a Firefox customized 'skin' I added at the same time as updating, but I reverted to the default view and the problem remains.

  • Problem when printing booklets prints pages 1,2 and 11 as if I wants to print all

    I am using XP and 2000 MS word
    I am having a problem when printing booklets from time to time. I get it ready to print in booklet form with 12 pages and my printer gives me the options. “Print all”  “current page”  “selection” or “pages”  Because it is booklet I want to print the first 4 pages to be folded and glued as a small book. When I inter 1-4 as the example shows some times it prints OK but about a week later it prints pages 1,2 and 11 as if it wants to print all. I thought it was the printer but think it could be in some setting of the word program or my computer it self.

    Also does this (i.e. prints web pages over several pages despite changing settings) on my laptop at work with an HP printer. This started when I upgraded to Firefox 9.0.1.

    My file association for jpg files is correct, if i click on a

  • Problem when typing into Speech Agent...

    THis seems to happen A LOT!!! I will click into a field to type my speech and after I'm done typing, I look up, and at some point it stopped typing! I am using a Wacom Bamboo Create and I thought maybe I was touching it by accident and clicking out of the type area, but I have now turned off the touch capabilities and it still does it. I have a LOT of text to input and this is very frustrating! I don't have this happen in any other applications. I can type in Word, Outlook, Chrome and Notepad++ with no problems at all, it only happens in Captivate. Not to mention sometimes when I click "+" to add another text area, it will just put it wherever it sees fit. I can be on slide 14, click "+", and my new text line appears in slide 6! HOORAY!!!! Captivate seems to be quarky as hell! Any ideas?

    Hi there
    I know you said you have a touch pad (Wacom Bamboo Create) but are you also on a laptop? If so, perhaps it's possible that as you type sometimes you touch the touch pad between you and the keyboard? I used to have that happen to me all the time until I configured the laptop to disable the touch pad when a mouse was connected.
    If that's not the case, I *CAN* think of a workaround. Compose your text in Notepad. Then copy from there and just pasted into Captivate.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Word breaks incorrect when wrapping Greek text

    Hi,
    I'm trying to use Greek in Illustrator, but I'm getting line breaks in the middle of words. This sort of problem also applies to other languages. Does anyone know how this problem might be resolved?
    Note that this is NOT the same thing as turning off hyphenation; I've tried that and it doesn't work. I'm getting breaks in words without hyphens appearing. I've tried with two sorts of Greek fonts: (1) with the Helena font, which replaces Latin glyphs with Greek glyphs, and (2) with a Greek characters in Unicode with a Unicode-compatible Greek font (SBL Greek). With the first option, it seems that Illustrator is causing breaks where it sees non-alphanumeric characters. With the second option, I'm not sure what the problem is; it's breaking in various strange places.
    Setting the language to "Greek" in the Character Pallette does not help. (I'm using ancient Greek, and I'm not sure how that might differ from modern Greek).
    The same problem has apparently occurred in InDesign, and there is even a solution or two in InDesign (see the 2nd link) involving either setting the language to "No Language" (cannot be done in Illustrator, as far as I can see), or find and replace character styles (again, it seems Illustrator can't do this).
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/1873967#1873967
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/1327153#1327153
    How might this problem be solved? Setting "No Break" in the Character Pallette for all the words would require tedious selection. Its seems that this problem could be solved by allowing "No Language" to be selected, or by adding an option to only break at spaces. TextEdit on Mac OS X does the latter and wraps the text properly.
    Thanks,
    David Arndt

    Ehm ... because InDesign can't load the correct rules for that language? No language = no rules.
    Go ahead, try it.
    It is something different than unchecking "Hyphenation" -- that works on entire paragraphs only. This will work for any word (or phrase, sentence, paragraph, multiple book set) you don't want to be hyphenated.
    [Post-thought:] "No language" may lead to surprising results with some OpenType fonts, as a lot (if not all) of features may be tagged to the language. You might suddenly miss ligatures, for example. So, other than for "Other" languages, you should probably just switch hyphenation off.
    End of disclaimer.

  • [SOLVED] GNOME 3 problem when typing to find application

    Hi everybody,
    Last night i tried to open an application in GNOME 3 (the last version available), then i pressed the windows key (activities) and tried to type the name of the app. When i typed the second character (i think), the UI restarted, and once i tried it again, it crashed. I tried to disable/uninstall the extensions i currently have in GNOME , but it didn't fix the problem.
    Is there a problem with some updates with GNOME?
    Thank you for your help.

  • VERY SENSITIVE TOUCHPAD CAUSING PROBLEMS WHEN TYPING MESSAGESS IN WINDOWS LIVE MAIL

    The laptop was recently purchased new. Windows Live Mail was installed and a mouse is used.
    In respondng to an email, new email or typing a message in a forum setting such as this, the entire text would disappear which was often before a complete sentance could be typed and could not be retrieved. This process would repeat itself over and over again.
    A technical representative from the company that sold the laptop concluded that combined with a very sensitive touchpad,
    a moving cursor arrow, shadow from the typing hand and lightly brushing the touchpad with the typing hand either singularly or in any combination were the likely causes of the problem. He then, using the software in the laptop, deactivated the tap function in the touchpad leaving all other functions in the touchpad in place.  This resolved the problem.
      -  Is there a device or software in the laptop that adjusts the sensitivity of the touchpad so that the tap function can be restored?
       - Is it possible that the combination of Windows 8.1 and Windows LIve Mail  is really the problem  and if so, how is this  determined and if necessary resolved?
       -Is there a hardware / software malfunction in the laptop causing this problem?
    Any advice and comments would be appreciated

    Hi @unfinished ,
    Welcome to the HP forum!
    It is a fantastic place to find answers and suggestions!
    I see that your new HP notebook's touchpad is very sensitive and you would like to be able to alter that.  Here is a link to
    Using and Troubleshooting the TouchPad or ClickPad (Windows 8).  There is a link to how to adjust the sensitivity.
    As it is a new purchase you should be in warranty and can contact HP support for assistance if this did not help.

  • Bad Buffering Problem When Typing E-mail because of Yahoo Ads

    I'm having the same problem!! I've blocked pop-ups, reset my browser, checked browser add ons...talked with tech support at least 6 times and problem is still not resolved.  What is the deal with ATT and their foreign tech support (in India!!)?? It has been suggested that I have a bad virus, I should change my internet browser, I should reset my browser, I need to delete cookies and other suggestions that can't remember at the moment...I finally gave up on tech support. ANY IDEAS???

    I use my e-mail for business and type lengthy e-mails.  For the last 3 weeks, I've had a horrible time with buffering when the Yahoo ads change.  I type without looking, then when I look back up at the screen, half of the info is missing (because of buffering). I've blocked pop-ups, but it doesn't work for Yahoo ads.  I've talked to 3 people @ AT&T Tech Support and they tell me that's tough.  I've got an AT&T e-mail address, Home Page Yahoo.com and log into Yahoo Mail.  Any help out there?  Talk down to me - I'm "fair" when it comes to fixing computer issues.   mwlmhi39 

  • Word 2010 hangs when adding a contact via the Envelopes and Labels dialog box

    I am having the following issue on all PC in our network.
    Open Outlook.
    Open Word 2010.
    Click the Mailings tab.
    Click Envelopes.
    Click the Address Book button.
    From the Address Book drop-down select the Contacts folder.

    Select New Contact & click OK.
    Fill in the basic info: name, email, phone numbers, address.
    Click Save & Close.
    At that point the contact form closes. It looks like the address book list is trying to come back but that is where it hangs. At that point the only option is to force Word to close. However, the new contact is created in Outlook.
    I can reproduce this with Word/Outlook 2010 RTM & SP1.
    Has anyone else ran into this before?
