An alternative is another text editor light waiting Bean which has number of native words

  • Number of words in document displayed in Windows Explorer does not.

    When I had Vista, I really liked the fact that Windows Explorer displays the number of words in a Word document using the «Détails» Until I realized that, without apparent reason, it displays the number of words sometimes change to one that is totally wrong - without the actual document being altered (i.e. number displayed in the Explorer of words = 2544, true account of the words document = 3655).

    The only way to solve this problem is by opening the document, undertake a different number of words, and then save the file again.

    Anyone has an idea why this could happen and, more important still, how I can stop what is happening in the future?

    It's function is useful is that I've noticed since the evolution of XP and I bought Word 2007 specifically so that I could use this feature (replacing the, apparently perfectly good and free Open Office software).

    I want to auto generate a word from a PDF document. Firstly, the OCR must identify the document. Then I want to be able to select the character 'areas' where the text will be different by document according to the document. Again, I want this automated process.

    We have many forms in our records. From these forms, we generate a list of documents that fully represents what is in the file. To create a list of accurate documentation of a specific file, I have to manually go page-by-page, extract specific information (they are in the same place) and the list of documents manually. I want to automate this process.

    The function of OCR in Acrobat does not 'zone' OCR.

    Server as "automation" is not supported by Acrobat (by license and by design). Acrobat is a desktop application, and so many activities can be "automated" via Acrobat JavaScript and Acrobat Actions (a feature of the 'Pro' version) a hot body will have to be available to keep things moving along.

    From what write you it's maybe that your specific needs would be better served by a category Server product. To research these remember Bing / Google is your friend.

  • Limit the number of words in a text field?

    I have two fields:

    txtStageContent (where the user types in the information)

    WordCountResult (displays the words counted in the txtStageContent)

    in exit the event for txtStageContent, I have the following code to count the number of words (that works):

    var CNT = word_count (this.rawValue);

    WordCountResultTwo.rawValue = cnt.toString ();

    function word_count (textParam)

    {

    textParam = textParam.replace (/ ^ \s * | \s * $/ g, ");

    If (textParam)

    Return textParam.split(/\s+/).length;

    on the other

    return 0;

    }

    My Question is:

    I would like to have a 700 word limit in the txtStageContent text field, is it possible?

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hello

    This can be done with a small script in the the change event.

    if (xfa.event.newText.match(/\b\w+?\b/g).length > 700) {
              xfa.event.change = "";

  • Number of words and then pasting text into the text block

    I'm trying to create a javascript script that counts the words in a block of selected text, adds "WORDS." at the end and then paste at the beginning of this block of text with a "BOLD" character style applied. So he would look like:

    25 WORDS. Text text text text text. etc.

    I managed to find a way to create the character style, to count the words in the selected text block and give me an alert. But I'm not sure how to apply the character style and paste it at the beginning. Any help would be really appreciated. Here's what I have so far.

  • I need to number the lines of my page document for the presentation of the journal. Help, please!

    I need to number the lines of a document to be submitted to a journal. I can make a section in the document, but I can't find a command, and then add the line numbers.

    Hi Misha,.

    3 pages includes number of words to display as a menu item in the view menu:

    The County appears at the bottom left of the page and it shows more options when you click on it. Unfortunately, "number of lines" is not included in the available options:

    If you had ' 09 Pages on your Mac and did not intentionally removed it when you installed 5 Pages, it will always be there, in a folder named iWork ' 09, in your Applications folder.

    Copy your document, open the Pages ' 09 and paste the contents of your document into a word processor new document in Pages ' 09.

    Check that the end of the document is delivered on the same page (number) and to the same position on this page as in the original and making small changes at the margin to adjust it if necessary.

    Then go to edit > tools > statistics to see this more comprehensive report:

    Note that if you need to present the newspaper article in one format other than a file of Pages, the number of rows may change due to changes in the conversion to the new format of formatting.

    If you don't have a Pages ' 09, you can get a number of lines using tools > line numbers in OpenOffice or LibreOfficeApache. Both are applications open source, free to download and use (even if you might donate help the future evolution of the demand). The links will take you to their respective Web sites.

    Oh... One more thing (as long as Steve jobs used to say sometimes): pages (3), go (menu) Pages > provide pages of comments and make a feature request so that the line count (and line numbering) added the capability of 3 Pages.

    Kind regards

  • Photosmart HP 6520: Photosmart 6520 unable to analyze text editable

    I'm unable to analyze text editable my Photosmart HP 6520 to my pc HP Envy Phoenix running Windows 8.1 64bits.

    It is possible to scan the document to the pc in pdf format.

    It is possible to convert the PDF into a Word document, but the text is not editable.

    Is anyone able to help me with this please?

    Note: I am able to convert pdf files sent to me by e-mail in word with editable text documents.

    Hello @petermfwlet,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that you want to scan files editable text your Photosmart HP 6520 e-all-in-one printer to your Windows 7 computer. Because it is a Photosmart printer text editable reading iris (OCR) software does not come with this printer model. In order to have the editable text supported HP options offers you will need to use a model of the Officejet printer. By saying this, you may be able to use third-party software of the seller to scan documents for editable text. You can also analyze your HP Photosmart camera PDF files and use a third-party vendor software to convert the PDF file to a Word document.

    Please click here for instructions on how to scan a PDF document via the HP scanning software. Once the PDF file is saved on your computer, you will use the third-party software to convert the file.

    I can not recommend a third party software to convert or analysis files to editable text. However, I did a search on the internet and found a list of programs that can suite your needs:
