Fill with placeholder text does not

My order of "Fill with placeholder text" no longer works.  No text only inserted when I select the command. (He used to work. I used it a lot.) I have read on the substitution.txt file and made my own and place in the InDesign Application folder, following the instructions that I found on one of the forums.  I can see the file, and it is named correctly. But I still get all inserted text.  It seems that something is broken. It's like InDesign does not see the substitution.txt file, even if it's in the right place. (I use CS5.1). Does anyone have a suggestion as to what might happen? Thanks in advance for any help!

I have to fill with placeholder text works again. In my opinion, it may have been something fishy with the sequence of several frames on the line that has been not to let the text get inserted. I'm embarrassed to say that I did not sufficiently stable before that I blamed the control. I did learn some things, however, and appreciate the advice I got.

    For good you will easily fill a frame with text of Lorem ipsum generated.

    How cumbersome is to fill text blocks 300 over 300 pages with it?

    Or is it not?

    Text frames can be useful, and they can also get on your way. If you do not need the ability to change things on all pages of the document by editing the main storyline, you might be better to not use main text blocks.

    That said, if you do want to use master text frames you shouldn't be releasing the main frame to the document (by Command-Shift clicking) page on the first page and then adding the placeholder text him. This is what it looks like you do, and that's why you don't get what you want. What you need to do is to make the first placeholder text and then place. Who will release the master images on existing pages or create new pages if you start with a one page document.

    To generate the placeholder text, start with a new document. What I'm doing, it of make a block of text that fills the full editing table, click inside the text cursor and change the font to something very small (like text 1pt with automatic line spacing). Then change the text block to get the number of columns (maybe 10, maybe 25, it's up to you). Now fill the frame with the placeholder text. The additional columns will allow more text, because to this font size, some paragraphs will not fill the framework if it is a single column. If you want a very large amount of text, select all, copy and paste them twice or more. Once your text has been generated, all select, copy, move to the actual document and paste it into a block of small text on the pasteboard. Now apply the paragraph style, you want to have text (which I suppose is in a readable size).

    If you click the out port of this text block and shift-right click in the master on the first page of the document (that you didn't him don't have not already unlocked), it will be auto-flux in all the master text frames on existing pages or create new pages as it goes if he needs. I think that's what you wanted to do from the start. Write might be a lot of work, but it really only takes a minute.

  • MS Paint "fill with color" tool does not work. :(

    In the painting, my "fill with color" tool (the pouring paint can) does not work. I click on the box, I click on a different color, the icon changes to the can, but when I click on a space as say an empty circle, it doesn't do anything. Right click, nothing, left click, nothing.

    I noticed that the only thing he is able to do is to change a solid color that I did (as a solid black rectangle) in a different color, but only once. If I rectangle black color green, I can't change it to any other color after. I don't know what is happening.

    I am not edit a photo or anything btw, I start a new painting from scratch file. I'm trying just to circles of color and enclosed spaces. I've done this dozens of times with no problems. I tried restarting the computer and paint without effect.

    Thanks for any help!

    Hello, I'am getting a little crazy because Group/scrolling text does not. I looked at several videos of Adobe evangelists now to make a scrolling text or group.  I ' am in collaboration with InDesign CC and it looks like my 'Overlay tools' do not work.  When I see the preview, I can't scroll but only to select text. My steps are simple: I put my text in a selected area. PLACE IN > that select > Folio overlays > floating framework. It does not scroll. What I've done wrong?

  • BlackBerry 10 Again... texting does not transfer to my Q10/Z10

    I know this has been discussed a lot, but I don't know what is info/news. so I bought this Z10 a few weeks ago and NEVER used because when I tried to upgrade my device to the new, it does not transfer my SMS/text messages on the new device.

    I tried MANY times. passage of my 9780 to Z10 using Mac... everything transferred excpet my texts.

    Tried to use maneger Office on my PC and everything is still there except my text messages.

    tried to go to my 9780 to 9360 (since its execution OS7) and then tried to go to Z10 9360 again the same question... SMS still not there...

    When I used the link and put two devices, it shows that everything, including TEXT Messages transferred fine without problem

    tried to make a backup of card media and then restor inside the Z10... always the same question... without SMS/text

    I can see the names/numbers of the people who texted me on my older device (also the exact order in which the texted me on my old camera) but when I opened them they are just empty. nothing is there

    So I deiceded I'll just sell the Z10 (which I did) and stick with my old camera because there is no way I can use it without my old texts... and I didn't like the keyboard so it was kinda ok...

    in any case, I bought a Q10 now because it has a keyboard (which was the main problem with the Z10 for me) and went through everything above! everything is always transferred except my text messages. I was playing with it and tried to find words of my text messages and I was able to find some OLD text messages (like 1 + years or maybe more) but that's all.

    For the moment, I try to use Blackberry Protect and hoping for the best, but something tells me it won't...

    any ideas on what I can do here? All I need is my only problem it's SMS/MMS. I spent hours today reading online, trying different things and not luck. The same thing when I had the Z10... I lost hours and hours and eventually sell it and lose money without actually using the device for more than one hour of actual use

    I want this thing to backup/restore is just as easy as the iPhones or older blackberry devices

    Please help me before I go back to my old blackberyy because it's what I have to do if it works not once again... that SUCKS!

    OK well it kinda worked. For some reason, only certain contacts text disappered but I me am I'd say about 80% of my texts. that is great! but my new question is this. I noticed that some texts does not show the name of the contact, so I thought that maybe it still load all contacts from the back to the top. so I let him, but none of the names of contacts displays now? I checked and it does not show my contacts info are there with the number correct and everything, but in the text any name! only phone numbers! I have the contacts record with country and area code but still...

  • text does not scroll

    Hi, I have a problem with this page. http://reystyler.com/kwekjong/citrus-calamondin.html

    I pin the text because I want to keep it in the right place. But now the text does not scroll, and the page is changing.

    Can you help me?

    best regards Jan

    It looks like you want a page aligned left, rather than the default behavior, which is centered.

    Disable the PIN on all points. SIte properties (or Page for a specific page properties) uncheck the option "Center horizontally.

    Now, your content will be left-aligned in the browser and scroll normally.

  • Dynamic text does not appear

    Hello world!

    I just want to know why a dynamic text does not show in the swf video.

    I have a mc in a main period in which is an another mc,

    This mc have photos and a dynamic text which must scroll to see all this.

    but the text appears!

    I checked the script of the actions, but there is no problem with him. Here is the AS:

    onClipEvent (enterFrame) {}
    If {(lMouseover)
    _parent.Text3.scroll-= 1;

    }

    Well, when I test the fla, I don't see the Text3 in the outgoing swf.

    Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong?
    Thank you very much in advance for any help

    If it is a dynamic textfield, try incorporating the fonts.  In most cases where dynamic text is not displayed, it is the solution. It is always the case when using a mask on a dynamic textfield.
