How to create a non-editable text box

Hello

I have a need to create a non-editable text box (staticTextBox is not an option). I use TextEditbox but cannot find a property that can be set to make it readonly so that users can edit the text.

How can I do this?

See https://indd.adobe.com/view/a0207571-ff5b-4bbf-a540-07079bd21d75, p. 12.

  • HELP: How to create the link via text boxes

    I am trying to create a text through the comments toolbar box and set a link to a page in the same pdf. Using the Connector tool does not show an option to create a link to a text box or in the text created through the typewriter tool. I'm using Acrobat 9 Pro. Thank you

    An action to go to another page in the document can be attached only to a form or a link object field. When you add text using the typewriter tool that you add an annotation, which cannot do.

  • How to set up an editable text box that can be controlled by master pages

    I am designing a book. I created a master page to the first page of each chapter. I also need the text box content to be in a different size. So I tried including a blank text box in the master. That's when I met a problem - to place text, I have to manually replace the text box on the first page (Page of chapter) making a page element... the following pages have no problem however, as the son of text in the main text boxes. Now when I want to change the size or formatting of this text box, I can no longer use the master and have to manually apply to each chapter of this.

    Is there a better way to do it. I'm on a deadline, a quick response would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    After that you override the master element on the page, it retains aspects on the page of the document that you do not change. So, if you change the size or geometry of the image on the page of the document, change the master page will have no effect. If all you have to do is out of the text frame to fill it with the type, you can still control its size and position through the frame of the master page. If you do need to change size every time you release and add text, I am not aware so as to always be driven from the master page.

  • Smart txt reflow - how do you work with several text boxes?

    Hello

    I create ID cards to work, for 650 employees. I had used the reflow of text before smart on other jobs and I don't foresee any problems with its use for this project. To explain my problem:

    I'm doing a template with a trial of ten employees file. The design on each card, it is a name and a unique ID to be used. The name is 18pt and code 10pt.

    On my main page, I have a block of text for the name and a text block for the employee ID. The text blocks are as wide as the work plan but only high enough to adapt to a single name by image to the relevant point size.

    On the first page of my document, I select 'place' and then select the text file with all the names, I get the change of cursor in the image of the text, I hold SHIFT for the debit option and click on my name text box. InDesign automatically creates 9 new pages, and I now have a 10 page document. So far, perfect.

    I select "place" again, choose the employee code text file, click on my block of text in code used on the first page, and repeat the same process as above.

    My problem starts - I want codes for the employee to just flow through ten pages, as the names, but when I place the codes file and select the text on the first page, inDesign creates 10 new pages after the tenth page. So I find myself with 20 pages - the first ten pages with names and nothing in the code text boxes and the last ten pages with the codes but nothing in the name text boxes.

    I am at a loss as to why he does this. I was playing with the settings in the preferences, but nothing changes. I tried to select both the two text files and import at the same time.

    How do you work with several text boxes and several import of text file on a doicument? There are no extra spaces or something like that in my text files.

    I really don't want to have to link all text blocks - that will forever, but right now it's the only way I can get it to do what I want.

    Also, is there anyway to specify the font and the size of the text is important as? Because it keeps import as minion pro, even if the text boxes on the master are set to the correct font and size. Not a big deal though.

    Help, please! Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

    Ah, I think I misunderstood your original post and thought you wanted to do 10 badges per page. If it's only one, you need only a set of images. Same procedure for setting in place, but you have no need to screw anything or use the step and repaet to make copies.

    Place the file name in the frames of name and ID will add pages and then return to the first page and place the numbers. Just don't forget to put the bad slider in the space where the framework and to stay away from the guides (if you click on a guide, ID will ignore masters executives) and hold down the SHIFT key when you click.

    How to create a character of text in Illustrator by Script?

    Thank you all.

    AHA!

    You can duplicate your original text block, put a coat of any color on the range of text you want and then create the contours of this copy. Now, the characters who are all developed in transparent traces will be in their correct positions and contours more will be your flagged - items you can delete the rest.

    Hi landon39843319,

    You can have fields flowing / more dynamic in a PDF of LiveCycle Designer form, but not in an AcroForm (only created in Acrobat).  LiveCycle Designer is a program completely separated used for are delivered with each purchase Acrobat Acrobat XI has been release.  Now you must buy separately.  But LiveCycle Designer PDF forms are wrapped in a shell of PDF so that they will be displayed and can be filled in the free Acrobat Reader DC and earlier versions.

    If you do this in Acrobat with an AcroForm, you have as much information typed into a field that the user wants, but he's going to show everything on the screen.  Displays only the text that fits into the field, then a + sign will appear in the field to indicate that there is more text in this field, you can scroll down to read.  You can also set the automatic font size so that as more text is entered in the police becoming smaller and smaller to adjust the text, but that is usually not desirable for many forms.

    Hope this helps,

    Dimitri

    For my work, I need to adjust an apex page where copy us paste records to an excel file in a text box to read in the data base. The code for this works very well, except for 1 thing:

    Whenever copy us paste more records as well as the total number of characters is greater than 32767, it gives the following error:

    Bad request

    The request was not understood by the server due to invalid syntax.

    Once I have the clob in apex_collections and can be read from in a package I can handle the rest. The text box is called P157_CONTENT.
