Copy and paste from word in InDesign - foreign characters

Hello

I have a Word file using fonts foreign, Chinese, Korean etc.. I have the fonts on my computer because the word document shows them OK... but, if I try to copy and paste the text into InDesign, these characters that either don't watch any or you just get the color pink with small gray squares... Anyone out there has advice for how to manage this kind of situation.

Thank you!!

Oooh, OK. I get my finger-waving caution.

It could be a number of different things. I almost always place instead of copy and paste, but I have no trouble copy & paste text of complex script of any sort in any of my different versions and platforms. I figure that there are two different ways - is it something about implementing folds or Clipboard which this (which means it could be decompressed exactly in the same way as any police drop, no complex-script knowledge required) or there is something about the no Latin text itself that causes the problem. Take a look at the Clipboard (Edit-> preferences-> Clipboard handling) settings to see if these settings solves the problem by changing the settings of plain text for example.

If this does not work, I would say showing a lot more detail. Platform, versions of Word and Indy, the specific policies are a failure, a description of the way styles are implemented in the current Word and Indy docs, maybe a sample of the doc Word and Indy zipped and made available for testing (for example if I can successfully copy and paste in the RFSO when your username cannot) (, there is something wrong with the installation of the user), and so on. Without such information, the best I can do is take random speculation.

  • Try to copy and paste from word

    Hello.  I copied the 15 pages of a Word document, and I would stick all in an InDesign Document with the text flowing all the way to the end - just looking for rectangular text boxes automatically simple full page - nothing complicated.  I had watched a tutorial that said we could have the text in the text boxes automatically while generating so much new pages as needed so that the text could be displayed.

    I tried a number of ways to fix this problem without success.  Is the closest I have come to get all the pages to flow, but only on one side of the two pages, I implemented in my Master A model.

    Could someone explain to me the correct way to do this?

    Thank you.

    Automatic flow works only with the text placed or excess that seek you, not with the first block of text copied that you put in the location of the active cursor.

    Whe you use debit you hold down the SHIFT key and click the loaded cursor. ID will as many new pages as needed to accommodate your text. If you click on a block of exisating, ID will be placed the text in this setting, if you have no frame, ID will create one on the fly using the existing margin or column guides.

    Since you are only placing the text on half of your distribution, looks like you have a block of text type (is not usually necessary to place text), and it is not placed with a frame on the other half of the spread.

    A little more explanation of what action you do to get to that point would help.

  • Bug? Quote simple copy and paste from MS Word

    I don't know if this is a bug or not. Whenever I have a copy of MS Word with single quotes (for example, it is just a 'test') and put it inside an af:inputText field, save the value in a Java bean and then retrieve it for editing, single quotes become a reversed question mark (i.e., it's just a ¿test¿) this is only the case every time I have copy the text from MS Word. Copy from Notepad or Wordpad, but also enter manually the text not produce the bug said.

    Does anyone have an idea about this problem?

    Thank you.

    -rolly

    ... and no, I don'think it's a bug because you are facing a character conversion, which for example also happens when copying and pasting from Word to Powerpoint

  • Copy and paste graphic inserted gives InDesigne, object not! Bug or 'feature '?

    When I copy and paste any object in Indesign (Vectorgraphics, Rectangle, Textarea, everything) it is not glued as another object, there in the form of a graph inserted paster. I use creative Cloud, to update automatically. What is a 'novelty' or a bug? Copy and paste an object-> I want a new object (editable and with same color, etc.) and not a chart inserted. I can't change all the parameters of that or something? never had this problem before!

  • As Illustrator vector pen tool or allows copy and paste from Adobe Illustrator.

    In Muse design tools are very, very limited (can't even do the triangles).

    Adding that a pen tool would allow the curved lines and be vector would speed up load time vs png or JPEG.

    Please, please, please add a vector as Illustrator pen tool or allows copy and paste from Adobe Illustrator (vector lines keeping intact).

    Yes... I know it's possible, but what I would like is the ability to simply copy and paste a curvy line (as say a wave vector) directly from Illustrator in Muse and keep a path editable vector with attributes like thinknesses different line and maybe even anchor that can still be moved.

    Once the site is finished and designed, it must then only need to be transformed and optimized raster image/s (png or jpeg) to export (depending on the output (computer or Tablet). Apple's IWeb, used to have something like years ago, so I know it isn't an impossible coding exercise.

    If you have already converted to outlines, there are no police who could be replaced or fail to be integrated in the placed art, so a user error cannot cause a problem that would not also be possible with a pasted graphic.

    But if you stick to keep your job, keep your job. Try to make a copy of the file, then export to .inx and open and save as a new .indd. See if that fixes Watt is screing things up.

  • Image editing in InDesign (copy and paste from Illustrator)

    Hello

    I have a scenario and I hope someone can clarify:

    I'm working on a Mac using Adobe Illustrator & Indesign CS4. Whenever I have copy and paste or drag an image in illustrator into Indesign, this particular chart is not editable in InDesign, and it's ok.  I want it like this to the clerk/typists to use in their InDesign files.

    However, on a PC with Vista, when the chart is copied and pasted/dragged from illustrator into indesign, this graph becomes editable using the direct Selection tool in InDesign.  I want to know is if there is a way to disable this option on the PC version as on mac?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    Perhaps the difference lies with the way Illustrator fits images.

    Here, with my trusty CS3 in 'preferences files and Clipboard' (translated from the french), I have the choice of exporting the Clipboard in the format PDF and AICB format.

    If I understand your message, I guess Mac export as a PDF and Vista exports AICB format.

    An audit of preferences would help with this,

    Good luck.

  • How can I copy and paste from Google "Keep"? Every time I try, the copied text is not copied to the Clipboard in Firefox, it allows to copy my clipboard 'by default'.

    I can't get the Firefox Clipboard appears when I try to copy the Dungeon of Google. Please help, thanks.

    Hi again LvScience:

    (tips from jsoulless40 (thanks js40!) to try the site office in Firefox when using the web application in Dungeon is very good, but I think you are using the right to keep the App, not web app version right?)

    Thanks for the info of the unit: 'Android OS's on a Samsung Rugby Pro 4.1.2 I do not have this tablet but I have two tablets from samsung android under 4.x

    I should have asked before:

    What exact steps where you next when you've copied and pasted into a 'newly opened document.

    My steps were (on my Samsung Tab S 10 4.4.2 running):

    1. in Firefox selected, then copied text
    2. past in app Google Dungeon
    3. successfully pasted the text in Dungeon in the 'add a quick note', also tapped the new note icon and pasted the text into a new note
  • Cannot copy and paste from a remote desktop

    I am running Vista Home Basic, 32-bit and trying to copy and paste at the back of my desktop remote connection to my computer at home.  When I connect, I checked the tab local resources and made sure the printer and clip board options have been selected.  I even checked them once to try to cheat the system, but has not worked.  Any suggestions?  It becomes quite complicated to just double tap!  He has worked in the past, but he just decided to stop working for some reason any.  Thank you!

    Hi given dog,

    Thanks for posting to answers.microsoft.com.

    Essentially, the information on the tab local resources should have selected Clipboard.  Since you have already have this setting enabled, let me ask you a few questions:

    1. are you remoting of this system from Vista to XP system? or vice versa? or Vista to Vista?  If Yes, what is the Service Pack for two revisions of Windows on the computers involved? and these systems are all recent Windows Upates installed?

    2. you remember to load any software or maybe a mouse intelliport before this problem?  using a keyboard and wireless mouse?

    3 do the copy and paste functions work normally on both systems outside when not involved in remote desktop?

    Please let us know any information that may be necessary to help solve this problem.

    Thank you

  • Impossible to copy and paste from/to XP using remote desktop

    Due to problems, I have recently reinstalled Vista on my pc.  Before the reinstall, I could access my PC using XP, using remote desktop from work to distance and copy and paste the files from XP and Vista.

    Since the reinstallation, I'm not able to copy/paste unless I have turn off UAC.  (I have progbably had turned off before, but he didn't.)  Is there a way to copy and paste them to work without disabling UAC?  Maybe some changes in the policy or registry?

    Note: I use Remote Desktop with Clipboard selected for local devices and resources.

    TIA.

    Janis

    I saw this thread earlier and it does not apply.  I would say the copy/paste of text works.  I can't copy and paste a file.  UAC seems to be the key here.

    I found a work around.   I connect with a local drive.  Since the remote desktop, I can copy files to the local disk, which then I have the file available locally and I can go other directions.  It's a little slow, but it works for now.
