  • How can I get rid of the little blue box on file Vista icons?

    How can I get rid of the little blue box on file icons? Like the shortcut symbol, it is in the lower left corner. It's a solid blue rectangle with 2 white "" superior to "sign, as to point to the right." He appeared on the recently created new files, MS Word and jpg photos. I find a nuisance when you try to view photo icons because it hides part of the image.

    -What is it?

  • How can I hide parts of a text

    I do the layout on a booklet that is printed and sold. I also want to put on our Web site in pdf format, so people can get a good idea of what it is, but of course they should not be able to read all this. To this end, I created a new layer and use the rectangle tool in InDesign to cover the parts of the text, before I export this pdf file.

    And the text is well covered in the pdf file, but if you use the text tool, you can make a copy of the hidden text and paste it into Word.

    Any ideas of what I can do then?

    IN Acrobat, you can extract pages from a PDF file, or just export selected pages, and not the entire document. It would be a subset.

    Conditional text has been added in CS4. It allows the text of the tag with one or more conditions, and then to show or hide any condition to change the appearance of the document. Common uses are responses in an edition of teachers, a text or to put the price catalogue of the ina in several currencies. You can read all about it in the help.
