Import text from a file?

• Import text from a txt file.

  Hey guys,.

  I'm looking for a way to import text from a .txt file, but I'm totally lost. If someone could point me in the right direction would be great

  Hi Prails
  This script is basically what you asked:

  #target illustrator

  main #targetengine

  function copyText() {}

  text var file is File.openDialog ('select file');.

  If (! textFile.exists | app.documents.length == 0) {}

  return;

  };

  textFile.open ("r");

  var txtContent = textFile.read ();

  textFile.close ();

  var doc = app.activeDocument;

  var textItem = doc.textFrames.add ();

  textItem.contents = txtContent

  };

  copyText ();

  Basically what you need to do is to declare the text file, open, read and close it. Then, you create a new text element in the Illustrator document and write content once caught in the text element.

  You can continue to work with the variable 'textItem' in my example script if you want to set properties such as size, text color, position and so on. Also, if you wish, replace the first line of the function var textFile = new file ("" ~ / Desktop/Test.txt ' "); textFile var = File.openDialog ("select the file"); so the script opens a dialog box asks you the file you want to copy the content.

  Hope to be helped

  Best regards

  Don't worry, it's not difficult (if the XML is very good) you can select and set any text or dynamic object... But to explain here is a little difficult to do... a video tut this is what you need...

• Reoading updated the text (from web) file

  I have a project that captures the text from a text file I have on my server. The code I use is at the bottom of this post...
  
  I have an empty cast member called "ClientListImport" and the script works great! - but the problem I have is when I update the text on the server (via a PHP script), the project manager does not update unless I left the projector and the re-launch. I tried to re - run the importFileInto script in the projector, but it won't pull in the new values.
  
  It's almost as if the text file is cached, or re - run the command is simply ignored for some reason any. How can I get Director to import the text updated on my server? I have to purge the first original text file? The code can be run one time?
  
  Any help would be appreciated.
  Thank you!
  ------
  
  Here is the code I use to insert the text file in my "ClientListImport": cast member

  > tempURL = getNetText (" http://www.MYWEBSITE.com/ClientListImport.txt")

  New: you need to add a fake query string so that the Director does not use
  a version cached

  netID = getNetText (" http://www.MYWEBSITE.com/ClientListImport.txt?id=" &)
  the milliseconds)

  > If netDone (netID) then
  > member("ClientListImport").text = netTextResult (netID)
  > end if

  Be aware that you must run a loop on a frame netDone expects to return
  Property to TRUE before accessing the netTextResult(). It is possible it is a 'failure '.
  for you because you jump right in front of the netDone because netTextResult is
  SET TO FALSE.

  -script #movie:
  global gNetID

  on prepareMovie
  tURL = "" http://www.MYWEBSITE.com/ClientListImport.txt?id= " "
  tURL = tURL & string (milliseconds)
  gNetID = getNetText (tURL)
  end

  on enterFrame
  If netDone (gNetID) then
  If netError (gNetID) = 'OK' then
  Member ("ClientListImport"). Text = netTextResult (gNetID)
  -spread regardless of other changes are necessary
  on the other
  alert ' text file read error: "& netError (gNetID)
  end if
  end if
  end

• Extraction of blocks of text from a file of patterns saved in the PDF format

  Hello

  Does anyone know if there is a way to extract information from text from a PDF file?

  I have a PDF file with IIPDFLib 3.x that contains features to display detailed information from the objects by clicking on them.

  I would like to be able to convert this text file, so that I have it is easier to create a list of these objects found throughout the document programmatically.

  Here's an overview of what I am able to see when I click on one of these objects.

  Thanks in advance for your support!

  The script is probably located under the action of MouseUp, the button, or in the form of script at the level of the doc.

  To access the old go to the mode "To prepare the form" and then click with the right button and select Properties - Actions, and then click the command run JavaScript associated with the MouseUp event and change it. If the complete code is not there then it is probably a call to a function, you can use below.

  To access the latter go to Tools - JavaScript - Document JavaScripts. Copy the code into an editor of plain text, such as Notepad and search for the definition of the function the name of function that you found above. The code should follow.

• Import text from Illustrator styles

  Is it possible to align the text from Illustrator (or any other Adobe program) in InDesign, and preserve the paragraph and character styles? If not, is it possible to paste text at least and preserve local formatting (as when you paste text from Photoshop into an Illustrator document and it is the same font/size etc.).

  I use the latest version of CC.

  Thank you!

  Like InDesign has a complete different text engine as Photoshop and Illustrator (both) have the same, it is impossible to do in simplicity.

  But because that a file is a kind of PDF you can use 3rd party converters as PDF2ID PDF InDesign CC, convert PDF in InDesign CC, open a PDF in InDesign CC.

• Import text from a pdf file and edit it

  I need to go "back" in the way that the normal process would be. I have a PDF (a book) and I need to recreate it in InDesign CS5 (7.0.4) so that I can edit the text. It is no longer available to left the document that produced the pdf document as a first step. I must tell you that I'm working with Acrobat 8.1.5 in Win 7 machine.  That's what I thought would be the answer for me: first, I exported the PDF in Acrobat 8 as an html tag (export-> HTML-> HTML 4.01, CSS 1.0) file. The html file seemed to have all the formatting in it. Then, I opened the html doc in MS Word and saved as a file of rtl. Then I could put the text of the rtl file in my new InDesign document. The bad news is that, in all the many notes, italicized text are lost. Of course notes are not linked (with the actual note reference numbers), but I did not do. Does anyone have another technique, version, software or script to try? It is important to get the italics to convert the exported file and I can make corrections on the text in InDesign.

• Problem with the imported text from quark

  Hello world

  I imported the files of version 4 of quark offshore from a mac to Indesign cs4 on a windows PC. all is well apart from the text being a bit messed up, so I'm pretty happy with that. The problem is that when I drag or copy and paste into a new document images will move but new text will not work with the images.

  By this, I mean that when I try to type something above or nearby graphics graphics just disappear! You can drag on the image that they disappear, then when you drag them away them again reappear!

  Forms I hover over have a thin white border on them where the forms I created directly do not have this boarder.

  Any help you cold give me on this would be great!

  Thanks in advance!

  Sam

  A screenshot would be useful. Post the files would be even better.

  But a guess would be that the objects are actually online and text blocks have skin that are applied to them.

• Can I import words from the file name as keywords in the metadata when you import pictures?

  Hello

  My apologies if this question has already been asked. I can't find the answer: will / Lightroom can import words filename for my photos as keywords in the metadata when you import the photos from my hard drive? And if so, how can I do this?

  I'm new to Lightroom from iPhoto. After reading several articles on the transfer of photos from iPhoto, I exported some 7000 photos in an electronic file on my hard drive. I'm following the advice, sort and rename the photo files on my hard drive to be able to import them into Lightroom in an orderly fashion. It is not too difficult because iPhoto already for most changed the filenames for event names as ordered in iPhoto. I also prefer to do it manually rather than using any iPhoto / Aperture plugin because my iPhoto organization was far from perfect and I have already started to significantly improve by changing the file names.

  I'm renaming the files of images with additional information to improve the organisation even more with what would anyway keywords "DATE/NAME/NAME OF PERSON (S) IN THE EVENT PHOTO" so it would be good to not have enter these keywords in the metadata after import for each photo. It's automatic and if not is there a way to do this? All the other tips are welcome!

  Thank you

  Hi adiscerningeye,

  You can create metadata Preset and then apply this preset on import for images.

  Link partners: -.

  Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Help | Shares of advanced metadata

  Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 * create and apply metadata presets

  Once you create a metadata preset, you must select it during import so it will be applied on all images when importing.

  

  You can also type a few words under key words, so it will work like keywords for this specific to import Images.

  Let us know if it helps.
