Yellow boxes behind all caps text

I had a Quark 6 Mac file converted to ID CS3 Win using Q2ID and when I opened it I replaced the fonts with our own, however wherever the text had the all caps feature used in Quark (I guess) there are yellow boxes behind the letters. I can get rid of them only by selected the text and clicking off the All caps (TT button).
Is there another easier way to keep them as all caps and get rid of yellow boxes?

ReCapitalizing ALL CAPS Text?

Surely there's a way to do this.
It's been a very long since I've needed this function, but I distinctly remember way back when (long before Pages v1), a time when I could select a block of text which had been entered as ALL CAPS (typically something copy/pasted from another source), and reformat it to all lower case, to Title Case, to Sentence case, even to small caps -- whatever I needed to make it consistent with the rest of the document.
So far I can only get Pages' Capitalization function (via Format > Font >) to work on text which was originally entered in lower case. Any letter which was originally entered using its Shift- Capitalized form seems to be chiselled in cyber-stone.
PLEASE, please, Please tell me that Pages 2009 is not so powerless that it can't change a capitalized letter into its non-capitalized little brother?
THANKS -- I mean, Thanks,

I still wish though that Pages had this kind of thing built-in in a more readily accessible way.
The jury is still out on whether your wish will be supported in Apple's application model. Apple has specifically sought not to make the intelligence for internationalised imaging a part of the application model, seeking instead to separate the application model from the transform model. This has been opposed by software publishers who make and market software suites, including Adobe and Microsoft. There are two application models / business models for internationalised imaging.
Apple's model has been to provide a model for the small independent developer of character-glyph transforms (fonts) and colour-colourant transforms (profiles) to make and market intelligence in a plug-and-play manner. The intelligence is in the transform itself, in what is technically termed a transform for determinate, runtime-independent rendering.
Adobe's and Microsoft's model has been to incorporate the intelligence for internationalised imaging into the software suite intended for a standalone personal computer. The font or profile is in this scenario a client of the software suite and/or the operating system. OpenType and the Windows Color System are intended to work in this way as what is technically termed indeterminate, runtime-dependent rendering.
The problem with the internationalised drawing models for Unicode imaging and ICC imaging is I suppose political, because if there is no competition between the centralised indeterminate, runtime-depent rendering model for software suites and the decentralised determinate, runtime-independent rendering model then the power of graphic information processing is harnessed to the platforms of particular software publishers.
I know this is a hippie plot hatched in Cupertino in 1988-89 ... -:)

Changing all caps text to lower case in PSE 7 ?

I have PSE 7.0, and am trying to add text to an image. When I add the text, and type it in all in
lower case, the text appears in all capitals, in text layer, and changing
my keyboard caps lock doesn't make any difference.
However, in the layers summary box on the right side of screen, the text appears in lower case - but when I save, or print etc, it always shows in all capitals!
Does anyone know any more about text editing in PSE 7.0?
Thanks so much!
Sasha

First of all be sure the font you're using has small letters and not just caps. If it does, then click the tiny triangle at the far left of the options bar and choose Reset Tool.

Weird grey boxes behind type areas

Okay this one's got me scratching my head...
Quark Xpress 7.31 exporting a page containing a news story, several photos and a few ads: Intel dual core PowerMac Tower with 2GB RAM running 10.4.11 and CS3.
We export the page as a .ps file from Quark Xpress using the "Export Layout as PDF" function and fire the file into a Distiller 8 watch folder. Distiller spits out a PDF in the usual way BUT... now all of a sudden we're seeing square 30% grey boxes behind all of the type areas on the page.
The grey areas are precisely rendered to match the text box locations in the Quark Xpress layout, and look as thought the Acrobat 8 application is generating them - almost as though it's a form of markup. It also resembles the effect you get if you took a standard PDF with embedded type and swept a test area with the text editing tool; the area you swept would highlight in light grey... which looks like the effect on-screen - only it's permanently active and cannot be disabled.
If we open the same 'erroneous' PDF on another Mac in our department running the same OS version and Acrobat 8 it looks the same with grey boxes. If we open the same PDF on a Mac running the same OS version and Acrobat 6, it looks fine with no grey boxes at all.
In all instances, the grey boxes do not print if we send them to a proofer or the RIP. It appears to be a display issue only. But it's mighty worrisome come press time... I've also run permission fixes, Onyx, Applejack, etc. to no avail.
Anyone? Could it be prefs related?

What colour space / tint / values are you getting inside the output
preview inside of Acrobat when you click inside these grey boxes?

Would like to *not* use all caps

Is this possible in the iWeb Comic Book template? I've played with different fonts, however, they all come up using all caps.
Is there a way to change some of the text in the CB template into normal upper and lower case type?
Thanks again for helping me twice today
kimba

Type your text in a text editor like Bean, set the font type, size and size to the way you want it and then copy and past into the Comic Book template text box replacing all the text there currently. That should change the font to upper and lower case.

ALL CAPS spell-check?

Is there a way to spell-check ALL CAPS text in an Acrobat document as one can in Word?

Here's what I am trying to do. I have a form that I created using Adobe Livecycle Designer. The end user will fill in the form fields in the dynamic PDF form. One of the form fields allows users to type in free text such as a description etc. As they are typing in mixed upper-lower case sentences the spell-checker highlights any misspelled words. If the end user types everything in CAPS the spell checker will not work. Microsoft Word has the ability/option to spell check all caps. Acrobat apparently does not.

I want to highlight various words in a pages document with a yellow or black box behind the text

I want to use a highlighter in Pages. I know how to do it in steps.. but would like a shortcut to highlight various words throughout the document with a yellow or black box behind the text.. help

I got another idea. Create a style with the text and background colour you want. You can apply a short cut for that style. Beware that the styles is only for that particular document but you can import styles or you can use Save as Template and keep it as a template.

I was in a Pages Doc and inadvertently had the Caps Lock on. How Can I change all the text I typed from Upper Case to Lower Case?

I was in a Pages Doc and inadvertently had the Caps Lock on. How Can I change all the text I typed from Upper Case to Lower Case?

Several protocols may be used.
Here I describe two of them.
(1) the one which I use : install and use the "Convert to Lowercase" service available in the free WordService
(2) copy your text, paste in TextEdit and enter the Edit menu.
I guess that you will recognize the items in your English menu.
I apologize but I don't know the English items.

InDesign CS4 - saving as PDF, text has faint boxes behind each letter.

I can't figure out why when I save or export my document as a PDF the text doesn't show correctly. What happens is the letters have small boxes behind each one and some of the letters are just outlines.
I checked and the font I'm using has been installed correctly in the system.
Attached is an image showing the problem. It shows up in the smaller text, not the large bold text.
Any ideas how to fix this??
Thanks
This is the document with the text problems:
This is what is should look like:

Finally found the troublemaker!!! You were right. I deleted all links, and it exported the PDF just fine. I went back and tried deleting single links at a time and found the one that, when deleted, everything else exported to PDF just fine. I opened that JPEG in Photoshop and cropped it to the exact size I needed, since I hadn't done this before, resaved under a new name, put it back in my InDesign file and everything just exported beautifully.
HUUUUGE sigh of relief over here. THANK YOU!
And next time I will bypass the wasted morning of pulling out hair and running in circles, and just come straight here.

PDF Export with Outlined Text, keeps non-outlined text box behind

I work with a printer that needs all text outlined and the file saved into a PDF.
Everytime I outlined my txt another box with non outlined text remains in the background.
I have to go through my document deleting the non outlined text boxes...seriously.
Anyone have a solution for this or have experienced anything similar?

I agree with the gentlemen above, but have on occasion been forced to outline fonts for printers as I have no authority to choose which printers my company works with.
Well put, Allison. I don't have any control over the printers used by my clients' clients, either. Or my clients' clients' clients. So occasionally the word comes back up the chain "All of the Arabic turned into question marks; please outline and resend."
Speaking of which: the cases in which live text is duped when converted to outlines, with one copy remaining live, are in my experience 1) when tables are used, and 2) when almost any Middle East version of InDesign is used. I think that maybe the leave-live-text-behind bug/feature has been fixed in ME edtions of CC but I'm not sure.

IDCS3 Mac - Using "All Caps" results in yellow highlighting?

Hello.
When I attempt to use "All Caps" on a typeface (Trade Gothic Bold #2), any letters which are typed in lowercase (and thus become uppercase when I use the "All Caps" toggle) get a non-printing yellow highlighting behind them?
I've checked and the typeface I'm using isn't corrupt, etc. so I'm unsure why these characters are becoming highlighted?
Does anyone know why this would happen & how to fix/disable?
Regards,
Kristin.

Perfect — that did the trick!
Of course, the one option I didn't uncheck (as I didn't even consider it to be a glyph).
Thanks!

I just statred Flash CC for the first time and it seems that the text within the pop-up window (dialog box) is mis-aligned and not allowing me access to the command buttons, nor all the text. (ie: the NEW Template Box, can't see but 2/3 of the content)

How can I get the Cover Flow text to be in all caps

I've only had one problem with the Cover Flow application for iTunes. All of my track names, artists, and album names are in caps on my library. When I switch to the Cover Flow view some songs are displayed with all caps, while others have the song and album in caps, but the artist is in lower case.
I've gone through all of my files and all of them have been correctly entered in all caps, yet Cover Flow still does not display them correctly. I've even gone through every album, got info, and made sure everything was in all caps. Still no succcess.
Any suggestions?
How about creating an option button to control Cover Flow's functioning on the next iTunes version? That would be nice.

Thanks, jere7my.
In other words, I should always make changes to my song text with the Cover Flow view selected.
I would never have the Cover Flow view selected while importing new albums, tracks, and artwork. I switched back to it after I was done personalizing my stuff. Thats when I started to notice they were still in lower case, even though I had changed them.

Messages has replaced all my text with a load of letter A's in boxes. What is that all about. When I type a new one it is fine until I hit enter then the same thing applies. Has anyone a fix for this?

Back up all data before proceeding.
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 this support article for instructions. If Font Book finds any issues, resolve them.
Start up in safe mode to rebuild the font caches. Restart as usual and test.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
If you still have problems, then from the Font Book menu bar, select
File ▹ Restore Standard Fonts...
You'll be prompted to confirm, and then to enter your administrator login password.
Also note that if you deactivate or remove any built-in fonts, for instance by using a third-party font manager, the system may become unstable.
