Convert text to paths

Hello everyone, I'm doing a script that converts text into paths, but could not find a method to do this, can someone give me a tip or a sample only as a starting point?

Thank you very much

According to the methods of TextFrameItem is createOutline(), which is the command to use.

  • Change the color of compoundPathItems created by converting text to paths using createOutline()

    I used createOutline() to convert the text to paths. However, the return is a GroupItem and I struggled to change its stroke and fill colors.

    Here is my script:

    var docActive = app.documents.add ();

    textFrame var = docActive.pathItems.rectangle (0, 0, 200, 20);

    var areaText = docActive.textFrames.areaText (textFrame);

    var textOutline = areaText.createOutline ();

  • To convert text to PDF files in ADOBE FLASH PLAYER?

    I bought a book EBOOK version that allows me to read on the site in the form of FLASH PLAYER.

    To convert text to PDF files in ADOBE FLASH PLAYER?

    Can convert the text displayed in ADOBE FLASH PLAYER to PDF file.jpg

    I think they may have chosen Flash especially so that you cannot save a copy. Although Acrobat can convert Flash files (it cannot) you couldn't get the Flash site as a file for conversion. (I hate these books in this way, I also prefer to work with a PDF file. Some people really feel it's better for their users, but I think it's people who don't actually use books).

  • Problems Photoshop CS6 text and paths

    Hello, I can't find an answer to this.

    I am unfortunately quite new to photoshop and im trying to create a logo, perhaps I should have used illustrator instead, but my problem is the following:

    I created a path, a circle and were able to put text around it. but now, when I try to change my other text on other layers, the text tool ALWAYS comes back to that path on the layer that has the text on the circular trail and I can't select text on other layers.

    How am I supposed to select other layers/text/deselect text on path?

    Thank you

    You double click (red arrow) to change the type?

    When you do the line is highlighted as shown in the bottom example.

    In addition, if you are not accurate by clicking on a layer and chose the tool move with automatic selection in the options bar, you can choose the wrong layer by mistake.

    because the muse adobe converts text into an image?

    Hello

    Unless you use a Web safe font or install a Muse supported TypeKit fonts when designing or on your web page - Muse will turn these words into images to preserve their appearance.

    Secure Web fonts:

    http://www.WPDFD.com/issues/87/knowing_about_web_safe_fonts/

    Fonts taken Typekit support for Muse:

    http://TV.Adobe.com/watch/Adobe-inspire-magazine/using-Typekit-with-Adobe-Muse/

    In addition, whenever you add text and try to create a hyperlink, it is said that the text requires the pixelation and the hyperlink does not work. In this case, either you use a font on the text system or apply the hyperlink to the structure of the whole text, not the selected text.

  • The stroke disappears when I convert text to outline

    I have a type used to describe another type layer. The bottom layer has a run of 8 - pt. But the police cause 'o' to have a point wandering in the upper part. But, when I convert the text to outlines, the race goes and I find myself with the guy who is not sufficiently wide or high.

    (The scaling for the height and width does not have the same effect we're looking for. Unfortunately I'm working on the files of my predecessor, so I have to give the impression that this was the case).

    Any help would be appreciated. I work in ID CS3 and don't really want to create in another program and then import it.

    Thank you.

    Remove the line before converting text outlines. Then add the race after that you described.

  • Convert text file to the recordset

    We have a web server where the text files are downloaded by the outside world, and I need to get the data in these files into my SQL tables.  I can code ColdFusion to convert text files (which are on the same server as web pages) to the recordset so I can have a SQL stored procedure to import data from my SQL tables?

    YES...

    I hope that you are asking here for someone to do it for you, but I want to clarify that the two tags, you will probably want to look at are the tag which allows you to read and analyze some sort of that you care.  And the tag, which may be able to parse the file into a recordset automatically, if it is well structured.

  • Text block path-> the text along the path of the resulting stream

    I am trying to create a text effect in small characters following the outline of the text very large block "BOLD" (see photo).  The idea I had was to create the 'ME' in very large print text.  Then convert this text in object / path using "object-> flatten transparency...->"convert all text to describe.  Then, select this path and use the type tool ' along the way '.  However, when I use this process, the way that results is a path that does not work, that is why the long path Type tool.  Guidance on how to achieve this?  The picture below I just used a pencil to draw the letters (quick and dirty) but the result is choppy, etc..

  • control file path of strength left in fact justify text on path

    I often find that the paths of files displayed in the file path controls are too long and gets truncated. Problem is that the right side of the lane becomes truncated and one may say is more this file was not selected.

    I'd rather largely aligned left the path so that the left side of the path is truncated and the name of the file is visible.

    I bet that there is no reasonable way to do it. Please prove me wrong.

    Thanks in advance,

    I just played around with the property "Text.ScrollPos". The wire just a number high enough to him and he will give you everything you want.

  • Getting a 0 when converting text to a number. need help.

    Hello world

    I am in 2nd year CS design my 1st app for blackberry. I use the code provided by RIM as my starting base.

    My problem is that when I convert a text in a number input using parseInt (foo.text) or (foo.text) Number I have a 0 instead of the number entered by the user. Here is the code I wrote for user input:

    var myInput:TextField = new TextField();
    addChild (myInput);
                
    myInput.type = "input";
    myInput.border = true;
    myInput.x = 140;
    myInput.y = 40;
    myInput.width = 125;
    myInput.height = 20;

    var n: Number = Number (myInput.text);

    var ntring = String (myInput.text);

    var firstnum = Number (n);
    trace (n);

    the trace function returns a 0. I also tried this:

    var firstnum:TextInput = new TextInput();
    newUfirstnum.width = 200;
    newfirstnum.x = 140;
    newUfirstnum.y = 65;
    newfirstnum. Height = 20;
    addChild (firstnum);

    var input: int = parseInt (firstnum.text);

    trace (Input);

    Does anyone know why I get a 0 and what I can do about it? Any advice would be helpful.

    Thank you.

    Hey,.

    just a follow-up in case you're having trouble, here is a working application that uses the same variables as you did. It is an object TextInput (QNX) and a tag button that click you on to see what the variable text in the TextInput object. When you click on it will trace the value in the debugger:

  • How can I convert text to XML format in plain text?

    Oracle 11 g 2: 11.2.0.4.0

    I have data that is parsed from XML and saved in a table as a field of type VARCHAR.

    The text is formatted as follows:

    <span style="font-family:'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size:12pt">24 PC'S "6 x 4up arrays" =  MAX FOR MIN QTY AT INDICATED LOT CHARGE </span><br> Material currently in stock


    I need to remove the formatting and convert the text to this:

    Is there an existing function in SQL or PL/SQL that will decode the formatting?

    Thank you

    -Johnnie

    This text is a string of HTML to the doubling actually escape sequence, because it contains a
    tag.

    Therefore, you must:

    -unescape any coded entities twice

    -replace the
    tag with a character LF - optional step depends on how you want to manage

    -remove all tags (using a regular expression)

    -eliminate the remaining entities

    This query will do:
