Smart txt reflow - how do you work with several text boxes?

Hello

I create ID cards to work, for 650 employees. I had used the reflow of text before smart on other jobs and I don't foresee any problems with its use for this project. To explain my problem:

I'm doing a template with a trial of ten employees file. The design on each card, it is a name and a unique ID to be used. The name is 18pt and code 10pt.

On my main page, I have a block of text for the name and a text block for the employee ID. The text blocks are as wide as the work plan but only high enough to adapt to a single name by image to the relevant point size.

On the first page of my document, I select 'place' and then select the text file with all the names, I get the change of cursor in the image of the text, I hold SHIFT for the debit option and click on my name text box. InDesign automatically creates 9 new pages, and I now have a 10 page document. So far, perfect.

I select "place" again, choose the employee code text file, click on my block of text in code used on the first page, and repeat the same process as above.

My problem starts - I want codes for the employee to just flow through ten pages, as the names, but when I place the codes file and select the text on the first page, inDesign creates 10 new pages after the tenth page. So I find myself with 20 pages - the first ten pages with names and nothing in the code text boxes and the last ten pages with the codes but nothing in the name text boxes.

I am at a loss as to why he does this. I was playing with the settings in the preferences, but nothing changes. I tried to select both the two text files and import at the same time.

How do you work with several text boxes and several import of text file on a doicument? There are no extra spaces or something like that in my text files.

I really don't want to have to link all text blocks - that will forever, but right now it's the only way I can get it to do what I want.

Also, is there anyway to specify the font and the size of the text is important as? Because it keeps import as minion pro, even if the text boxes on the master are set to the correct font and size. Not a big deal though.

Help, please! Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

Ah, I think I misunderstood your original post and thought you wanted to do 10 badges per page. If it's only one, you need only a set of images. Same procedure for setting in place, but you have no need to screw anything or use the step and repaet to make copies.

Place the file name in the frames of name and ID will add pages and then return to the first page and place the numbers. Just don't forget to put the bad slider in the space where the framework and to stay away from the guides (if you click on a guide, ID will ignore masters executives) and hold down the SHIFT key when you click.

  • Maintain performance when you work with several shape layers (~ 50)

    Hey guys, I worked on a few recent projects where I need to animate a large number of shape layers cascading, adorning it, with different properties of the animation. When I arrived at the point of use of 30-60 shape layers or more, and they all sort of scale, position, animations etc, my computer slows down to a complete analysis. Then forces me to use a single shape layer and Repeater functions. These can work well, sometimes and not cripple the flexibility too, UNTIL you need to incorporate various colors. At this point, I usually spend my shape layers to masks and place a layer underneath with different colors according to the needs. Animations of form then show these colors, but it does not work for a complex object, which, in itself, requires a lot of colors. so...

    What type of workflow you all to work with more complex semi both objects? I say to myself that I must be missing something, because it's become really limit. Everyone works only with 256 GB of memory RAM?

    FYI, my computer specs are:


    6 core Intel Xeon 2 x 2.66 GHz

    32 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 ECC

    ATI Radeon HD 5870 1024 MB

    OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)


    Thank you!!

    Motorhomes can accelerate your insights if you use the disk cache, but there will be nothing to expedite your first ram preview or a ram preview after a keyframe to change except a better optimized system. All that it takes to slow things down is an effect or film file that causes the AE to begin to use the power of CPU and memory.

    As test I just created a gradient filled rectangle, added keyframes rotation, duplicate the layer so I have 64 copies on my Mac Mini and tried a preview ram from the same model with 1 single layer. Almost no difference in time it took to get an overview of 10 seconds. Thrown into a processing of scale for all layers and once again, not a lot of difference between the layer shape and 64. To make things much more difficult, I change the rectangle a polygon and animated everything in the transform properties starter, put in place a composition with 128 duplicates and a model with a single layer. 2.5 seconds for a ram in the quarter preview ground for a single layer, 10 seconds for a RAM Preview to 128 layers. It is more than acceptable for me for an old Mac Mini for two years with 16 GB of ram. Increase in the factor of 50% zoom with resolution set to Auto double the ram preview duration that was still acceptable.

    This makes me wonder what is happening in your composition. All the effects or other things going on? You have optimized your system for maximum performance? There are links with suggestions to do throughout this site as well as the recommendations of Adobe available here: after effects performance optimization

  • How can I work with unicode text?

    Hi, is there a plugin for InDesign CS4 make unicode work in my document? Its really hectic trying to work with fonts so it ' be easier if I get unicode text for work in my document. PLS, let me know if there is any plugin.

    What do you exactly by 'as it is'? There is nothing magical about Unicode. If you see a lot of pink boxes after pasting your text, this means that the fonts you are using does not contain a lot of characters. You can set some GREP styles that assign some fonts Unicode at some beaches. Or use some queries of GREP find/replace to assign character styles to the Unicode beaches.

  • Smart Responsive Web Design QooQee app works with adobe muse? well... bugs...

    I designed a website using Adobe Muse. My client base ranging from the entrepreneurs architects to access our Web site for more information from the many available smart phones, tablets and desktop computers. My question is that, when a customer accesses our Web site and according to the browser width Adobe Muse can't stand not sensitive Web (RWD) design for optimal reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, scrolling and panning. There is a product that came out this spring (2015) of QooQee called Adobe Muse Smart reactive, that is capable of RWD. Anyone who has used this software in design and how are you satisfied with the results? It works well with the touch screen of the PC who parade as the tablets?

    The widget is not a real sensitive design widget - it simulates just one. This property is set to true sensitive is not yet available in Muse - I'm sure it will come one day. For now, you'll need create the Tablet and versions of phone separately.

  • How do you communicate with the Apple Watch

    How do you communicate with the Apple Watch

    Hello!

    Welcome to the Apple community. I'm not quite sure what you mean when you say "communicate" with the Apple Watch, so I'll give you a few options that can respond to your request.

    (1) the Apple Watch supports Siri, just like the iPhone and the Mac. To apply, simply say "Hey Siri" while the wrist is triggered, and your watch will respond. Alternatively, you can hold the digital Crown and Siri will be activated. As soon as Siri is activated, you can ask him questions such as "what is the weather today" or "reminder", or "Let's start a workout."

    (2) you can manually send SMS via your Apple Watch by use of Siri, or opening the messaging app. That Siri send your messages, just say 'Hey Siri, send a text < name >' and Siri will open the Messages app and wait to talk to you about your message. If you want to move the Messages app manually, press the digital Crown and will take you to the home screen. In the home screen, select the Messages app (a green icon with a word inside bubble). Any existing message log must appear, and you can type on a given message log and choose to respond.

    (3) If you want to place a phone call using your Apple Watch, you can say "Hey Siri, call < contact name >". If you have several numbers for a particular contact, Siri will ask you what number you want to call. You can also you can present a more specific request like 'Hey Siri, call < contact name >, < number >' with the number favorite is 'work' or 'House' or 'mobile' etc. So the demand go something like "Hey Siri, call Barbra, House".

    If you are still at a loss, with regard to the types of orders that Siri will accept, you can always ask. Say 'Hey Siri, what can you do?' and she will give you a list of commands that she will answer to the.

    If all goes well, I addressed your question. If not, please provide a little more information and I'll do what I can to help you.

    Good luck!

  • How to merge data to work with Arabic text

    I need to make use of the data merge tool for a project I'm working on, but it involves the creation of documents in English and Arabic. I created a CSV (with Excel and OpenOffice) with English and Arabic text in there, but when I use it as a Data Source, the English is fine, but comes from Arabic in lines, points mark or arbitrary characters. I have UK InDesign CS6 and also a test of InDesign ME CS6, but doesn't seem to work. Any help would be massively appreciated.

    I have never tried to work with Arabic text, but my suspicion is that the problem lies in the data file, not necessarily in InDesign.  I don't know how your data file has been created, but my instinct would be to record from Excel as Unicode text, if that's an option avaialable you. This should give you a tabs-delimited text file that keeps the characters in extensive ranges required for Arabic, I think.

  • Ideas to explain why, when you work with raw files in LR 2015 with Edit in PS 2015 and use the Camera Raw filter, the profile in the Lens Correction Panel tab is missing

    Ideas to explain why, when you work with raw files in LR 2015 with Edit in PS 2015 and use the Camera Raw filter, the profile in the Lens Correction Panel tab is missing? Mac OS X 10.10.5.  I reinstalled the OS and Lightroom and PS, nothing helps.

    Hi ParadigmRose,

    This is expected as profile tab behavior does not appear under Lens Correction Panel if you go to Camera Raw Filter in Photoshop

    However, profile tab would be there if you open a raw image directly in camera raw first.

    You can go to the filter menu > Lens correction in Photoshop, if you want to search for profiles with edit in Photoshop.

  • I need to create a curved with type text box that heal and return to the next line in the form of curved text. How do I do that?

    I need to create a curved with type text box that heal and return to the next line in the form of curved text. How do I do that?

    1. Draw a set of concentric half circles also spaced, stacked so that the outermost is the most remote.
    2. Use the text tool to add text to the outermost path, thus creating a PathType object.
    3. Select all the paths. Type > threaded text > create.
    4. Text tool: click at the end of the text in the object of PathType. Continue typing.

    > If I do that it will not type more.

    A Warp effect is a direct effect. When it is applied to the type of objects, they are still editable text. The chain will deform, however, the text also, not only the paths to which it is attached. Sometimes you want that, sometimes you don't have.
