Copy from Illustrator CC and paste to Powerpoint issues

• Why objects copied from illustrator vector cc do not stay the same size when pasted in pho

  I think that the problem started with the latest updates. Work normal flow of copy and paste no longer functions properly.

  Photshop changes the dimensions of the vector illustrations copied from illustrator and pasted in photoshop.

  If I start with a 6 x 6, vector shape in illustrator, then select copy, I should be able to enter in photoshop, select file and then new.

  and the document should automatically extract the dimensions of the Clipboard. For some reason any 6 "x 6" opens a 0.6 x 0.6 in document.

  Even if I manually change the document to 6 in. x 6 in., another thing I copy for more than 6 x 6 gets its dimensions changed to fit inside the illustrator document. I cannot copy and paste a 10 x 2 vector in 6 "x 6" document without changing the dimensions of photoshop

  If it fits inside the document. Any ideas on how to fix? Thank you.

  Hi Kelly,

  I think a number of things are colliding together. Looks like your main concern is that pasted files are to be resized to fit existing document limits, correct?

  There is an option in the preferences to disable this behavior. Do you know if you have this option unchecked

  

  Kind regards

• Text copied from Illustrator CC 2014.1.0 pasta like Image

  I've seen similar discussions, but none of the answers are no help for me as of today.

  Background:

  I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10

  All my CC applications are updated to the (01/11/14)

  I'm also updating on all other software on my Mac

  My goal:

  Copy text in illustrator

  Stick it in the Mail and TextEdit Notes live editable text

  Results:

  Text glue as pdf or some type of an image according to the application

  What it looks like:

  

  I'll start from the beginning to avoid questions later.

  I open a new document in Illustrator.

  

  These are the settings to Clipboard in my preferences.

  Please Note - I tried all combinations of these parameters. Turn them on and off one at a time and in combination does nothing to change the final product. I have disabled them all for this example, in order to scramble the not.

  

  I type the text. I did not use a text box in this example. I just clicked on the page with the text tool and type this line. There are no additional attributes. You can see that the parameters of characters are the most basic. Yet once, please note - I tried to use a text box with the same result.

  

  I use the text tool to highlight the text, then copy the text. I do not use the selection tool to select the text and copy.

  

  This is what looks like the Clipboard. Note that the content is "text".

  If I type the text in PS (for example) and copy to the Clipboard, it says "text". However, the text that I copy off PS I can stick anywhere in the editable text.

  If I type the text in the Notes and copy to the Clipboard, it said RTF. This text can also be pasted anywhere text as editable.

  This leads me to believe that it is a problem centered on Illustrator I have experience.

  

  I click in the body of an email and paste. Seems fine, but when I try to click in the text (for example, between the words 'in' and 'Mail') I can't do.

  

  The line of words is highlighted and not editable.

  

  If I click with the right button on the image of the text line and select "Open the attachment" you can see the Clipboard pasted as uneditable text and .pdf.

  

  Interestingly, if I open a new note and try to paste the line of text, it sticks as a .pdf file but just the icon appear. Double clicking on the icon will open the text in PDF in acrobat.

  I don't have this problem until the CC2014 updates were made. I would like to know if there is something that can be done, or is this a bug in Illustrator. If it's a bug I don't want to spend time looking for workarounds. I will use another program when I know there's a lot of work to copy / paste to do. It's embarrassing for my Illustrator old files that have now issue when I open them in CC2014.

  I know that I can use the "paste and match style" but it's a force of habit to use the shortcut for paste. It is also a ridiculous change of Illustrator for the cut/paste to act that way. If indeed it was planned and not a bug, what would be the advantage?

  If someone saw the problem that I am eager to know what is happening.

  Finally, if there is no other way to solve this problem then can anyone remind me how to customize the combinations of shortcut keys in Mail, Notes, and TextEdit? I seem to remember (long ago) being able to customize certain shortcuts in some applications, but I've never done in something else that Adobe applications and even then it was CS5.

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  Hello, I finally found away around this really annoying "bug" / "Headache" If you select the text (NOT with the text with the cursor tool) then right click and select "export selection" ( http://i.imgur.com/gM0hIPR.png ) and export it to SVG ( http://i.imgur.com/QaWiOYl.png ) and then open what you export in your browser (Internet explorer, chrome ect) and you can copy the text from there ( http://i.imgur.com/YJuE8JX.png ). I was very disappointed because even to try to copy it from Adobe Illustrator into Adobe Muse all right programs would freeze and close so I think he calls a 'suite' when you can not just simply copy and paste text from one to another is a bit of a cheek. Anyway hope this helped someone out there in the world

• Can we copy the folder and the name of the data file from Windows Explorer and paste as text in Word or Excel?

  I have two records with a similar file; some of them are duplicates, and some may have the same name, but contain different data.

  I would like to compare files from both folders by name and size of the file.  In this way, I could say if I duplicate files, or files with the same name with different data.

  I would copy and paste this information (as text or values) in Word or Excel.  Any way to do it?  Any other suggestions re: comparing these files?

  Just take the b out of my order and you will get info from size.

• How to copy my Firefox bookmarks and paste them in another computer?

  Ok. I found an answer in a thread here, but it is already closed. I have a supplementary question. The moderator says:
  Quoting:
  Depending on what you want to do, there are two options.

  If you want to replace the bookmarks on the other computer with the bookmarks from your desktop, use the method in this link to bookmarks in a backup file and then restore them on the other computer - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Backing+up+and+restoring+bookmarks

  If you want to add bookmarks from desktop to those that already exist on the other computer, you must export them to a HTML file and import this file on the other computer. Check out these links for more details:

     https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Exporting+bookmarks+to+an+HTML+file
     https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Importing+Bookmarks+from+an+HTML+File
  

  I want to do another - 'add bookmarks from Office to those that already exist on the other computer'
  The problem is that my Firefox is version 4.0. I read somewhere in the headings to bookmarks that I should have done nothing before moving to the greater than 12 version.
  The thing is my computer is 8 years old and I have only 512 MB of RAM. There is no way to upgrade more than 4.0. My computer can't handle it.

  Any suggestions? Can I export and import safely with 4.0?

  Yes, if you import an HTML backup then you won't lose favorites.

  Only if you restore a JSON backup, you will lose your bookmarks as a JSON backup replaces all current bookmarks with those in the JSON file.

• Flash 10 install and use with PowerPoint issues

  Hi feel really frustrated now and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a quick solution.

  I am running Windows 7, Flash 10.0.32.18 (now the 10.1 beta in desperation) and I did have to reinstall flash on startup until last night, so it's been an unhappy towards the bottom of the turn of events for me and not even the reason for research forums.

  My problem started as I stood in front of one of my classes (I work in a college) with PowerPoint 2007 and a lesson ready to go and the images Flash who had always worked refused to be anything other than a still image without interaction.

  Unfortunately, when I upgraded to Windows 7, I did a clean install and reinstalled Office as well as the latest versions of Flash, Shockwave etc. I say unfortunately because I now have no way of knowing where the problems lie. On request, Microsoft is categorically stated that it is a matter of Adobe and the forum appears to support this thesis.

  On the investigation, I found that when looking at a slide of the object has been identified as an object Flash, but I can't show all properties, also "insert a shockwave flash object' is not available in the control toolbox. This would indicate that Flash is not installed even if looking at a flash on the internet was not a problem.

  The last number which may help a solution, is that when you try to view a .swf file, I learned that I need to have Flash Player installed (I have) and trying to use a third party such as SWF Opener flash drive he also asks me to install flash.

  As everyone here I have installed, uninstalled all Flash etc. several times that I care to remember now.

  I'm not technically minded when it comes to the nitty gritty of software use and programming, I like just things to work.

  Please help as the most important thing I use my laptop so that I have now cannot!

  Following the previous post gm377

  Summary: The Installation from the download from Adobe site installs Flash Player 10ActiveX AND the Shockwave Flash Object

  I think that Version Stand alone of the Setup program installs ONLY the Flash Player, NOT the Shockwave Flash Object

  That is why #1 in the post before this one is correct. The Shockwave Flash object (plugin is requested)

  And that's what youtube asking because, though even they say "Flash Player", they assume and understand that the Adobe

  site installs both.

  Now, Adobe is no indication that the uninstall program needs to be run before a download and installation of Flash Player 10 ActiveX.

  In addition, because the beta was installed and now isn't there and with uninstalls and installs, you never know if there is a problem.

  Flash Player 10 ActiveX should be listed in Add/Remove and Manage Add ons Shockwave Flash - Adobe Systems, Inc. - object

  Enabled-ActiveX Control must be registered and the file is Flash10c.ocx.

  Solution: Back to the Adobe test site - http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about , keeping your add ons disabled and enabled as you have indicated in the screenshot of today (20/11/09) and as the message is ' an additional plugin is required to view some items on.

  This page"and the small image says"Get Plugin"and when you click it, the message is it wants to install Flash Player. The test is clearly you say that the Shockwave Flash (ActiveX Control Flash10c.ocx) object is not there, and saying: it wants to install Flash Player, it also says Flash Player 10 ActiveX isn't here either, or the "Get Plugin" would not fail.

  If Yes, do it! Don't forget to restart later, check in Add/Remove and see what is listed, check in Manage Add ons and see what is there. Then see what youtube to say and your slides in Power Point and where else you want to go :-)

  The worst that can happen is that it won't do the job and it will uninstall it and reinstall, but I'm hoping success!

  Sorry for the long posts, but I write as I think.

  Nice screenshots by the way, thanks

  UPDATE:

  I ALMOST FORGOT, LOOK OUT FOR THE GOOGLE TOOLBAR. IT IS GENERALLY VERIFIED AND WILL INSTALL WITH ADOBE FLASH IF YOU DO NOT UNCHECK HIM.

• Copy and paste the image in apple mail

  When I try to copy an image from the web and paste it into the body of an email from apple that I'm composing, everything seems OK.  But when it is sent, the recipient gets a little blue square with a question mark embedded in it.  Apple support can not yet explain that.  I use El Capitan 10.11.5.  Any ideas?

  Paste a picture in E-mail does not create a file of the pasted image. It's just a little creates a thumbnail low-resolution. While it may have worked in the past, it seems not yet.

  You must download the image and attach it to your message if you want full resolution.

• Impossible to copy and paste after the installation of updates

  Installed the updates this morning and now unable to copy a Web page and paste it in microsoft works. Can I use another program, but I'm not a happy camper. It tells me that I should not always immediately install new updates due to problems of this kind. I got burned by updates in the past, but it has been awhile. Everyone must wait at least a week or two before you install these updates.

  Sorry to hear that you are having problems after an update.  In order to help you further, we would require a bit more information.

• Copy and paste in VM

  There must be a way and it of probably easy enough, but how do I copy text from my desktop and paste it into a virtual machine in vSphere? So, I'm tired of copy and paste into a text document and then having to open it on the virtual machine and thought that there must be an easier way. We are at 5.5.

  It is disabled by default, but you can activate it: VMware KB: clipboard copy / paste does not work in vSphere Client 4.1 and later

  Should work on 5.5.

• Copy and paste variables - them?

  System variables find very useful indeed, remind me of the large number of variables that allows you to get in Authorware.
  
  However I'm not surprised there's no copy/paste functionality, or I missed something?
  
  I want to use the variable cpInfoCurrentSlideLabel system, I can't copy and paste which is frustrating. I go to the project / Actions, but I would then write down the name of the variable and then type in Captivate.
  
  Is there a faster way? Shame, you cannot copy a variable name and paste

  Hello

  You try to insert the variable in a text caption? If this is the case simply click on the option insert the Variable in the text caption properties dialog box.

  If you are tring to use the variable in Flash action script, you can select the variable in the project-> Actions-> tab Variables in Captivate, highlight the variable from the name field, right-click and select copy.

  CTRL + C is not enabled in the Actions dialog box.

  Thank you

• I can't copy and paste between documents

  I only just realized this when I went to copy a web address and paste it into a document. I know that I could copy the address but when I click on paste, paste is gray. I have not installed any software lately and I don't know that I could conduct last week... Someone has words of wisdom?

  Fred

  You have Internet Explorer open? Try to close it and check whether or not you can copy and paste correctly. If you can, disable all addons Skype - click tools / manage Cog icon, Addons and then select each addon Skype and click on disable.
