IDCS5 Mac - translate characters

Hi all:

I am obliged to analyse the text and in the process identify capitalized words and remove the possessive determinants.  On Mac, I found some inconsistencies.  When I actually entered the code, I found this:

Original text:

Carla boss says ' Let's go to lunch. "

What appeared in the debugger:

Carla\xd5s boss of the said \xd2Let\xd5s go to lunch. \xd3

My first thought is that the \xn has a hex value that is supposed to represent an ascii character, so I took out my hand-dandy ASCII table and raised my d2, d3 and d5.  No luck.

So what are?  And where can I get information about the \xn values and how to determine what they represent?

TIA!

R,

John

Your Mac has probably 'Quotes' enabled.

See preferences / Type...

So could get you the same thing with Windows.

Also, probably, you use PMString to work on the text, which will convert to the coding system / 8 bits.

Is not good, PMString is only for the user interface strings.

The MacRoman encoding is very old and traditional, a table not yet purged from the Apple site is here:

  • IDCS5 Mac - release plugin does not (reprise)

    I have 10 plugins that have been converted to version CS4 CS5 on Mac (Snow Leopard if that's important).  Of these ten, two Act ladle.  The other eight are very good.

    On both plugins ladle.  They appear in the drop-down Windows (they are pallets and it) in the version release in my computer, but if I take those same two plugins (I mean the same two "physical" packages) out on a Mac production, they do not appear in the drop-down Windows.  For fun, I caught the plugins not functional from off the production of Mac (the "physical" same two plugins) and placed them on my computer and they came without problem.

    There the difficulties of development associated with CS5 and Snow Leopard does anyone know?

    If anyone else has had this kind of trouble, and if you did, how you never solves the problem?

    Maybe you have used libraries that are not present on the target computer.

    There are entries in the system log?

  • IDCS5/MAC - Style GREP in capital letters of a letter after a hyphen between the words

    G ' Day here.

    I'm trying to create a GREP style for uppercase letter after a hyphen between the words, specifically with a word beginning with a capital and after a dash do not for example Lorem-ipsum = Lorem -Ipsum

    The full story, it's that there is an indesign batch file used over and over again that family names that are in a large database of data - merge. Data arrives in capital letters and our mail barcoding software allows us to title case some fields, but the behavior of title case has the following results:

    * = Mcleod McLeod

    * = Agostino Agostino

    * Smith-Bunting = Smith-Bunting

    I was able to solve the = problem with the following GREP style Mcleod McLeod:

    (?<=Mc)\l
    

    and then apply a character style that is nothing more than all caps.

    Similarly, I was able to solve the problem = D'Agostino of Agostino:

    (?<=\u')\l
    

    and once more apply style all uppercase to the letter assigned. This also solves the problem of O 'leary to o' Leary.

    However, when I try these GREPs to enter style Bunting-Smith questions:

    (?<=\u\l+?-)\l     or   (?<=\u\l{2,}-)\l
    

    the search does not work, nor will it work with regular replacement of find/change GREP... and yet the expression \u\l+?-\l will find the block I'm after.

    I could use the search

    (?<=\l-)\l
    

    and is that Smit untingh-b= Smith-Bunting... but there is also co-ontervenir = co-Ontervenir (find two words with a hyphen but begins with a lowercase letter).

    That's fine if the paragraph style is applied to the line in the address block containing the name of the client, but if the name is mentioned in a text block, then that block of text must have the paragraph with the GREP style applied style and dashes between words in that para is in the same way as the name.

    Yes, it is possible to go into excel and use the PROPER (cell affected) = and fix fields Smith-Bunting, but I am trying to create a solution that only works in InDesign so that other operators in the office (who are not familiar with excel) can simply open the file of commands and dump in the database to txt generated by the mail bar coding software.

    There are other names that-case of barcoding mail title fault upward, i.e.

    * = Macleod MacLeod

    * van der Graaf = Van Der Graaf

    * van Diemen = Van Diemen

    but a GREP make MacLeod of Macleod can clog Mack, Mackie or Macy become MacK, MacKie or MacY.

    I also know that a GREP for the van der or van will not work as the style will force letters only to be all uppercase, not uppercase to lower...

    In the end...

    does anyone know how to style GREP (not a find/change GREP) a fix for Xxxxx-xxxxx = Xxxxx-Xxxxx?

    Colly

    Colecandoo.

    I agree with Haakenlid on his reviews of Dirty-workaround - in my opinion, the data should be entered in the way which it oguht, not altered by some magical GREP styles - but then again, I can also sympathize with your POV re: a fire-and-forget solution even your stupidest operator can not miss.

    Oh the rigors of life.

    If you are totally, absolutely certain you want to GREP for that, use this:

    b define a character to capitals on the chain style

    \b\u\l+\-\l

    -This will change as if by magic "the Honourable lieutenant Sir John Forsythe Blunt-object" in "BLUNT object".

    (b) then replace (!) the first half with another style of character that removes the attribute of capitals (!):

    \b\u\l+-(?=\l)

    Notice how this expression is exactly the same as the one above, except for the latest code - the next tiny need also be captured, but now, by using an advanced search for its formatting will be not affected.

    This command removes the substitution all uppercase the first halve, change 'BLUNT-object' 'Blunt-object '.

    Many side effects, I'm sure. Maybe it 's safer to teach your operators to run a single script.

    Changes in function translate characters in the second argument that appear in the first argument in the corresponding position in the third argument, so an A in the deviation would be replaced by A a period in deviation would be replaced by a space (there are 8 places in the third argument, one for each of the punctuation characters) and so on.

    Depending on how you feel about the distinction uppercase / lowercase, you have to not actually the upper part.

  • See error folder.

    I can't get my CC after effects work on the render farm. I have a mac, I'm collecting and sending my project folder to a server where is my 'spy' case Rendering nodes are 4 PC and they do not do my project. I ran a test with CS6 and it worked fine. How can I get the version after effects CC to work?

    Ask in the AE forum and provide more information on the exact configuration, configuration and things like the names of files, the layout of the settings etc... The simple answer is probably that there are problems with the names of files and of the model using Mac-specific characters and so you have corrupt characters. The same could be true for text layers and so on.

  • Chinese legends in Captivate 5

    Hello

    I am translating an English tutorial in Chinese just by changing the text of the legend. I exported the legend and had translated them into simplified Chinese. I can see the characters of Word (2010). I tried the following, and everything translates characters being displayed as a box with a cross:

    1 copy the Chinese translation in Captivate

    2 import the Chinese text in Captivate

    3. change the Arial font, like it's supposed to support Chinese characters.

    4 added the Chinese police simplified to my PC (Windows 7).

    5. save a new tutorial using the simplified Chinese language, but no subtitle only generated when I tried this and when I tried to add a caption for the tutorial it added in English.

    Please can anyone suggest something else to try...?


    Thank you

    You have the Chinese toolbar on your windows system?

    When Chinese in Captivate text I first set the Chinese in my toolbar mode, then go to Captivate, when I opened a new legend and type in pinyin, a small window opens in the upper left corner of captivate and you can choose the right combination of characters, then click on the green arrow and he it enters the area of legends.  I hope this helps.

  • Is it a Mac software for optical recognition of characters in a PDF file?

    After that I scan a document and save it as a PDF in preview, I want to change it. I'm looking for software, compatible with OS X.11.4, that would allow me to use the optical recognition of characters (OCR) to convert the PDF file into a word processing document.

    There are many options that claims to do what you need.  From personal experience, it's almost a function of the PDF itself, not all PDF files are the same when you open them in apps claiming to edit PDFS and convert them into editable documents.  Bottom line: be prepared to be frustrated at times.

    You could look at ReadIris. They allow you to download a demo of the product. They have been long Affairs.

    They also have a demo

    A demo is available

    Note, I have all the products and have no financial interest in them.

    On the Apple App store, you can search the OCR and see what happens. Don't forget to look at all the comments and sort them by more critical if possible and act accordingly.

    And don't forget Adobe. They have the demo, too

    https://Acrobat.Adobe.com/Mena/en/how-to/PDF-Editor-PDF-files.html

  • Bunch of Oracle on the special characters in a string - translate?

    How to remove special characters in a string, it can contain. , (space), etc.

    SELECT TRANSLATE('123.456 (90-90)', '', '') FROM DUAL
    

    Basically I want to undress and to compare with the db value.

    WHERE TRANSLATE(TABLE.NUMCODE, '', '')  = TRANSLATE('123.456 (90-90)', '', '') 
    

    Use TRANSLATE, since you're on 9i. For example:

    TRANSLATE (your_string,'X,. #! % @$ ^ & * () _-+=', 'X')

    Removes all the s characters in ', #! % @$ ^ & * () _-+=' of your_string.
