Numbering... must be an easier way?

I am currently a little project for a farming business producing cards numbered from potatoes that are used to differentiate the stocks of pallets.

These maps are very basic black text with a number (previously identified using a rotary machine to number morgana, post press) the problem is with these rotary dialers numbers are small and faded, so I would like to print these numbers numerically, to keep their big and clear to read. The rest of the text on sheets is printed digitally so I was hoping just to add each card number and print in a single pass.

So... my question... is there at - it an easier way in indesign manually type each number in the required box, I have 4500 card number, so I'm looking for the most effective way to do it.

I'm using Adobe CS4 on an imac G5 10.6.4.

Using the data merge you implemented page tempalte with independent text blocks, not threaded and put all the labels on the page (it will be a single record by merger of the page). Each record contains the same quantity of numbers as there are labels on the sheet. It's up to you how arrange you these numbers.

I like to set up a spreadsheet for the numbering. For example, if you need 240 labels 8 poses, this equals 30 sheets. This means that you need a matrix on the spreadsheet of 30 rows and 8 columns. INTHE first column number down from 1 to 30, in the second of 31 to 60. and so on. Excel can autofill times columns and lines, so if you type 1, 2, 3 in the fisrt one column, Excel can fill the rest of the way to 30 just by dragging them. Do the same thing for the second column, select the two columns and drag to the right to fill the rest of the table (Excel needs of sufficient data to establish the pattern, but can then do all of the table at the same time). Add a new line at the top after filling to contain the field names for the data fusion and export to .csv. Use the file .csv as source for the merge, drag a field label in each image numbers and perform the merge. Your labels will be stacked in the order after the cut.

The key to this method is the calculation to get the correct number of lines to manage the total number.

  • must be an easier way...

    Here's a screenshot of my block diagram. I keep thinking that there must be an easier way to fill values other than cluster using these two nested for loops, but I can't think one. I am taking 4 rows of an array of bytes and fill of the items in cluster 0-5 to 6 bits of rank 0, cluster items 6-12 with six bits of rank 1, elements of cluster 13-18 with 6 bits of rank 2, then the remaining elements of the 3 cluster with 3 bits of tier 3. Any suggestions or is this the best way? I seem to think there must be something more simple. I have to see this end up in the rube goldberg section easily


  • There must be an easier way!

    Maybe it's the lack of good sleep in recent weeks, or simply to watch the long code, but it seems that there should be an easier way to do it, but it escapes me. Here is the code example. I have 48 initial statements of the YEW, with nested IF statements. The first outter, IF the declaration has 47 IF statements nested, the second statement IF outter has 46 IF statements nested, etc.. I have shortened the code for readability.

    If (thisItem.p0 == true) {}
    P00. AddItem (thisItem);

    If (thisItem.ItemSlots > = 1) {}
    thisItem.p1 = true;
    P01. AddItem (thisItem);

    If (thisItem.ItemSlots > = 2) {}
    thisItem.p2 = true;
    P02. AddItem (thisItem);

    If (thisItem.ItemSlots > = 3) {}
    thisItem.p3 = true;
    P03. AddItem (thisItem);

  • There must be an easier way to get these to plug and play

    I have attempted to put in place all the computers in my work so that they can take advantage of Microsoft Voice Recogbition and I use the Andrea Electronics USB USB sound card - MY and had recently several computers in my issues of experience at work with the USB - MY does not automatically installed on Windows 7 machines. When they connect, they get an error message saying: it has not been installed successfully, and it is not visible in the menu of recording devices. I have also a computer tries to use the USB adapter - MY with a motherboard ASUS Sabretooth X 79, and not only would not recognize it correctly the system, but would not start with the card installed in one of the USB ports. I know that these situations are very difficult to resolve because of the number of variables involved.

    I tried a number of things, such as uninstalling and reinstalling the driver, force to install the driver from different USB ports, hubs, etc., MS update catalog, but the only thing that seems to work is to uninstall the Generic USB hub and the hub root USB, and then restart the system.

    I might add that this issue was raised with other products as well USB, like a Bluetooth adapter and a wireless mouse. Is this something new? Everyone is having similar problems? Is there a simpler solution? Is this something that Microsoft should continue the investigation?

    No indication as to how or why this happens, or an easier way to fix it would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

  • Ahhhh! There must be a better way to change fonts/colors in 'States '. Photo below. Does anyone have the magic answer?

    Hello world

    I spend (and lose) so much time trying to make fundamental changes in the States. There must be an easier way in the future in Muse with the States. But for now, here's my challenge:

    For this example, the title of the person has been in light blue.  Statement of assets was white. I want to change the type of white in the statement of assets.

    Screen Shot 2015-10-27 at 13.38.34.png

    Yellow is for example purposes.

    In the NORMAL State , I change the title to yellow color. As you can see, the first 3 States change to yellow. The State of the asset remains white. Understood.

    Screen Shot 2015-10-27 at 13.43.02.png

    So I then click on the status of the assets button, and we see the white. I used Pink for this example.

    Just after I enter rose in the statement of assets, and if I click back or escape, I get this message. No matter if I edit together checked or not.

    If this warning message doesn't make sense, how the hell do I change things in the statement of assets?

    Screen Shot 2015-10-27 at 13.53.50.png

    If the result of the evolution of the Active state to rose, all changes except the active state. There must be an answer. Thank you!

    Screen Shot 2015-10-27 at 13.54.09.png

    Select the Group of free text and a text block, select the State and change the color of the image itself.

  • transfer bookmarks of a 8 year old PowerBook G4 for a MacBook Pro - is - it an easy way?

    You just bought a MacBook Pro - used an old PowerBook G4 for 8 years. I'm setting up of my MacBook and would like to transfer my favorites in an easier way than going to each site Web and bookmarks. Can I use the article on synchronization between computers, firefox settings? If so, part 1 talks about game upward on my main computer - consider my MacBook Pro is NOW my main computer... or there at - it an easier way to do it?

    Hi milkbone,

    If you have decided to move to the new computer and don't use the old one, I'd take a glance article back up and restore the information contained in the Firefox profiles and restore bookmarks from a backup or move them to another computer .

    If you are still using the old one or if you using sync would be easier to transfer your data, you must enable Firefox Sync on your OLD computer first. Then you could sync all bookmarks to your new computer. After that, you can remove your old computer from synchronization if you do not use it.

    Hope this helps!

  • Is there an easy way for me to go back to the old format for Mazilla Firefox?

    I have problems with the new version of Mozilla Firefox. Is there an EASY way for me to go back to the old format?
    Thank you!

    PS Please, please... Be very specific about what to click on and where to go... I'm still learning about computers. Thanks again.

    I suggest you another go to Firefox 4.0 comfortable for you, and it would be
    be faster for changes that will bring back to 3.6.17 or at least a lot more and the changes you need to do, sooner or later, whether for Firefox 4, Firefox 5 or Firefox 6...

    You can make Firefox 4.0.1 resemble Firefox 3.6.17, paragraphs numbered 1 to 10 in the next topic difficulty Firefox 4.0 UI toolbar, problems (make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)

    If still not convinced of the next section on this page is performing Fx3 Fx4 or returning to the Fx3 (#backto3pt6)

  • Easy way to extract the line of two-dimensional array?

    Y at - it an easy way to extract a two table row Dimensions? I have two lists of table to a dimension that I consider a pine table, where each pin list is a table of numbers. I want to go through it and to extract a line at a time to send in a vi. Currently, I'm looking to do a bit of a long way, and I was wondering if there was an easier way. The long way:

    GetArrayBounds (Locals.ArrayOfPinsToTestAtOnce, Locals.BogusString, Locals.ArrayBounds), / / enter the quantity of lines and columns Locals.ArrayBounds
    Locals.ElementsPerList = Val (Mid (Locals.ArrayBounds, 1, 1)), //Get number of bowling by list
    Locals.NumberOfLists = Val (Mid (Locals.ArrayBounds, 4, 1)), //Extract number lists
    SetArrayBounds (Locals.OneRow, "[0]", "[" + Str (Locals.ElementsPerList) + "']" ") //Set table defines for a line chart

  • An easier way to record data

    Hello

    I am generating some paintings I like to save in a row, and since they are inside a loop that a matrix will be created.

    I have a method how to do (my example program is attached). The problem is that I have to take each value and son and it became really a pain, as the program develops.

    Can someone offers an easier way, well it doesn't have to be the type that I chose, excel file is OK.

    Thank you very much

    Do not use the table in the cluster.  It is not scalable and you would have to create dozens to hundreds of son.

    Look at the chart to a worksheet string as in the picture.  Now, your example was not clear in what order you want things wired or what format want it converted numbers in the chain.  So, you will need to rework the delimiters (default tab) and the format string.  But the image should give you the idea.
