• Using find/replace

  Is it possible to use the search/replace on an array of text feature?  For example, I want to search my document for any type of [Text1, Text2, Rem3 Rem4] and change the style of paragraph on this text.  I know I could create 4 different searches, but since they all change the same paragraph style, it would be much easier to just use a.  Thanks for any help.

  Yes, if you have InCopy CS3 or CS4, you can use GREP find/replace to do what you want.

  1. Discover all the stories, then you can find/replace
  2. Edition > find/change, GREP tab
  3. In find it this field, enter "text 1 | Text 2 | Text 3 "(sans les guillemets)." The vertical bar character means 'or '.
  4. Let the change to the empty field
  5. Click the button change in format at the bottom and select the name of your paragraph Style in the first Panel of Options of Style
  6. Run a search/replace to test

  hope that helps!

• Can I have text boxes automatically realign?

  Therefore, I've created two text boxes with the text tool and adjusted to each other, so that they overlap, nor there is any space between them. Now, if I change the text in one of the boxes and adjust its size accordingly, harmony is destroyed, and I have to move/resize the second box, too.

  Is it possible to avoid this problem, i.e. the text boxes to realign automatically?

  You can look at the plugin Typefi AutoFit feature (site web www.typefi.com).

• Using find/replace in projects

  I maintain several RoboHELP HTML projects, and I have a global Edition (global sense in all projects, not one).
  
  Is there a way to have driving HR a find/replace in several projects so that I don't have to open each one?
  
  Thank you
  
  Jim

  Hi Jim,.
  A few thoughts on this...
  I used only the multi-fichiers find and replace facilities HR and experience with this I would be cautious as only see you the mode code and are to some extent "flying blind".

  Second thing, if find you a search and replace method that you like, perhaps consider replacing elements with variables that can be more easily updated when the inevitable next time comes...

• Using find/replace to find empty cells in a table

  I'm working on several catalogues pages where we apply styles of our catalogues. The find/replace feature really helped do, but I can't seem to find a way to find an empty cell in a table to add a style to only the cells that are empty. If someone knows a way to do this, saving me a bunch of times and I would be very grateful!

  Hello

  With GREP, this regex can probably help you: (?-m) ^ $

• abbreviate the month using find replace

  I need to change the month in my document to their abbreviation and have something that works, but I can see him stumble on some words.

  Let me explain.

  Here's my search string

  (? < =) let alone | (? < =) pay | ( ? < =) TEU. (? < =) ember | (? < =) ober | (? < =) ember

  I have replace it with

  .    <-note space after the period

  why I worry, is that words like "lust" or "burn" will be in the document. they complete the same in August and will be replaced by l. or com.

  or

  "remember" the same as September ends then it would become rem.

  or

  sober will become art. because my search string finds all the characters followed in ober

  How can I fine tune elsewhere so that it is only August, September etc.

  You can always do with a single click using a 12-part 'or' statement positive look-behind abbreviation for each month, then replace by your time and space. That's exactly what you do now, but you explicitly list Jan, Feb, etc in your butt look.

• Text boxes and annotations are moving their own

  To complete a model of society with Acrobat DC, I add checkmarks, circles and text boxes.  I find that when I save and then return later, they are in the right place when I discovered, but when I go back to edit the page, they moved.  When they move, they are positioned properly with each other, but not to the original page.  If I move it to the correct position and save again, they are in the wrong place when I go back to see.  If I let them and only add my new annotations, and then when I come back to see, the 'old' are in the right place, and the news is in the wrong place.  Why did they move, and how can I fix this, please?

  Hi carolineg47191583,

  Please provide the exact point of the software & OS installed on your system. Also check if it is there any update available for the software after crossing "" help > check updates "»

  Follow this thread to reset the Acrobat preferences:- How to reset preference settings in format Acrobat.

  I would like to know is what is happening with other documents as well or with this some.

  Please check after you re-create the document & then look for the same thing. Also check with the application used to create this document originally.

• Find/replace for text formatting

  Hi guys,.

  How to use find/replace for text formatting changes? I would like to change a text of entire book to try an another typographical options. The book is currently typed in text of Lyon. The problem is when I change to Sabon will make it overides the italics and the word "BOLD".

  I tried to find/display

  Search

  Lyon text regular italic

  Change

  Sabon italic

  

  but it does not work. Most of the text of this book is not formatted with the character to italic Style, for example, just a paragraph Style General to make it easier to work with.

  What I am doing wrong? Any help or ideas?

  
  Thank you!

  All of the text has a paragraph style that applies the formatting of basis for the whole paragraph. ALL text that deviates from the General formatting of the paragraph should have a style of character applied somehow, either directly, or as a nested or style GREP, which overrides the formatting of paragraph and gives what you want. The paragraph styles that do not change the font family are much more useful, for example a style that just changing the text in italics, as they continue to work when you change the font family of the paragraph style in the basic text format section.

  Character styles are used ONLY to change the part of the text in a paragraph. If the paragraph has the same formatting, it should have a paragraph set for this format style.

• Hi, how to do text jumps automatically down to the next text box when the text box area runs?

  Hello

  I tried to figure out how to get the type u to text in a text box automatically jump down to that underneath the text box area runs. I have some specific lines that I wish ppl in my PDF enter their information on. But I can't seem to manage get text, as executions of box of text box, to jump to the next line.

  That should be done with JavaScript in AcroForms. AcroForms don't have such a device built in. Dynamic form fields can be created by LiveCycle Designer, but it is an additional cost.

  Hello

  I'm working on a very long list that always has a space to be converted to a tab. No one knows how quickly using find/replace or GREP?

  The space after the 4 digits must be converted into a tab. I have hundreds of them to do, always a space after 4 figures to be a tab.

  Any help would be appreciated!

  Thank you!

  Enter in the search field: ^ (\d{4})# (replace ' #' with a space!))

  Replace with this: $1\t

  I'm on a Mac using 10.5.7 with Indesign Cs4

• Custom in the text box parameter CSS region muse cc

  Web design application in muse cc may have an option to add css custom in each text box, to custom design visualization of the text box. as I would like to add the css overflow property in a text box and want to replace the default min-height with the height property property. It generates automatic div id, then here it is difficult to identify the id where to put with own CSS file. so I think it makes sense to add a setting option to add custom css. is it not?

  [Left the generic Cloud forum for program specific forum... MOD]

  You can insert the text box itself with the html code that allows you to add your own code, this would be a way personalized to add the text box, too, feel free to add your suggestion in our ideas section.

  Thank you

• 'Wild card' in find/replace changes 'any number' to ' ^ 9' instead of leaving as is.

  During a search, find/replace in indd, using the generic specification for any number (^ 9), I would have thought the change would leave the numbers in their original state but it change them all to ' ^ 9' - how can I find a large document and remove all values in dollars using find/replace - e.g. AUD 3 234 to 3234 AUD?

  Given that you have at least InDesign CS3, use GREP to search instead of text search:

  Search: AUD (\d+)\h(\d\d\d)

  Change from: AUD $1$ 2

  Or probably even better, change to: $1, $2 ~.<>

  $1 and $2 rely on the conclusions of the first and the second parenthesis.
