Space text bounding box/leader

I use Indesign CS5.5.

Do not know if I explained this right, but here goes...

What I'm trying to do is to create a heading style that has an automatic peak/limit around the text box, in order to align the text of the paragraph below it precisely.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks to all who responded to my question.

I think I solved now what I was trying to make, I used the "Style of the object" and "Options of text block.

  • Illustrator CC text bounding box

    As you can see on the bottom of the image when I use the text tool (text area not the tool) when I select the text of the framework encompassing is lager in terms of height as the text so when I tried to go down (up or down) with an object any (lets say square) it is not properly aligned, the alignment is done by enclosing no per line of text (the bottom line).

    is it possible to do including match the text without creating contours (live still keep the text)?

    TNX in advance!

    Ivan,

    You can:

    (1) tick Edit > preferences > General > use overview of limits;

    (2) select the Type and the effect > path > describe the object.

    Which will reduce the Bounding Box to the real limits of the letters.

  • How to get a vertical Automatic centering of the text of paragraph in its bounding box in a composition of model.

    I use a composition of model to replace the different lengths of text in a number of instances of a graph custom in first Pro CC2015. The custom graph contains a circle shape with the text of the model implemented in the form of text of paragraph with its bounding box centered above the circle. Although I can justify to center text horizontally within the bounding box, I can't find a way to center the text vertically within the bounding box. The solution I'm looking for should work automatically with the text of different length strings used for different instances throughout the first sequence.

    No, there is no such thing. You could probably create an installation complicated with a host of text, possibly with an expression, but if not, you will need to manually adjust.

  • How to get the bounding box of the text element boundaries.

    Hi all

    I try to get the boundaries of the bounding box of the text of paragraph element. I found the following link,

    the coordinate of a bounding box is the same as the coordinates of the layer?

    But the solution does not work for me. It is for me as the layer of destination each time that is the limits of the actual text.

    Can someone have an idea how to do this?

    Thank you.

    Ok.. Looks like these settings that if the upper line of fonts is calculated from the highest point of the highest glyph or above the normal uppercase and can go above this. What is it changes by the police?  And if the exchange difference, the bottom of the bounding box moves it or increase the height?

    Discover the values limits-descriptor, especially 'top '. I think that it used to have small values of values that could be the delta of the value of the position. Note that there might be the scaling issue that I explained earlier

    Var ref = new ActionReference()

    ref.putEnumerated (charIDToTypeID ("Lyr"), charIDToTypeID ("Ordn"), charIDToTypeID ("Trgt"))

    var action = executeActionGet (ref)

    var textKey = action.getObjectValue (stringIDToTypeID ('textKey'))

    var limit = textKey.getObjectValue (stringIDToTypeID ('bounds'))

    Top Var = bounds.getUnitDoubleValue (stringIDToTypeID ('top'))

    var left = bounds.getUnitDoubleValue (stringIDToTypeID ('left'))

  • Resizing Auto text in a bounding box (and remove the line break)

    I have a lot of certificates of completion of the course I create (using pre-made our graphic charts).  I set up some variables from my diapers and I use a data set to shoot in the person's name, the course title and date of a CSV file.  The text 'Name' encompassing that I created is set to a specific width and height (and must stay that way) with a font size of 94,22 pt; However, some names are REALLY long and are too big for the bounding box.  They dress up.  When I run the "data fusion", I need Photoshop to automatically resize the text in the bounding box so that it is not word wrap.

    For example, "Jane Doe" fits well in the box.  However, "Johnathan Cornelius Doe" is too long, and the word encapsulates.  Instead, I want Photoshop to the long name and simply its size down to fit properly in the lack of word envelope bounding box.

    I have about 200 of them to spend in Photoshop, print and send.  I really don't want to individually open each certificate to verify this last after that I have run through.  I just batch process and print batch.

    Is there a way to do this?  Please note that I have never made any script; so if this is the way it must take, I need to explain carefully and in simple terms.

    Thank you!

    OK, try this. Save the code in a text file with the extension .jsx below. Create an action that runs the script. Then, you can use this action with the batch command.

  • Is there a fix for the icons in the text entry box yet?

    The box where you type what you want to say feels super crowded, now that they have decided to transform the icon of the trombone in four separate icons. It is quite difficult to read what you write when there is also a small space to write. Has anyone found a way to reverse the icons separated without reverting to an older version of Skype?

    As soon as you start typing in the chat window, four distinct icons should reduce the paperclip icon.

  • PDTextSelectGetBoundingRect and PDETextGetBBox producing different bounding boxes

    I used PDTextSelectGetBoundingRect to get the bounding box of a single character, then I used PDETextGetBBox to retrieve the character bounding boxes in a PDEText element. However when I get to the character in question limit box will not come out the same. The left, right and the sides of the bottom of the box are coming as planned, but the top is larger, then the original box from PDTextSelectGetBoundingRect. Any idea on what could be the issue.

    These are not only different API, they are conceptually different and work in different ways (one on content EDP page, an abstraction of the graphical model and one on the PDWordFinder, a text extractor). I'm surprised that they are also similar because they are given many different concepts of "enclosing" you might find (square em, limit of control point, nominal path, path antialisesed limit, advance left-right text...)

    The mixture of these unfortunate necessity of the API isn't. You must apply a fuzzy logic to match its content and hope for the best.

  • How to create a bounding box in Photoshop CS6?

    Hello, group.

    The other day, I saw an Adobe web page that showed a picture whose part was a sheet inside. The sheet was locked in a bounding box. However, it seems unlikely that the person working on this image needed (where this picture was concerned) for the text tool. If you need to place a block of type within a bounding box, you simply select the text tool and drag. This creates a bounding box.

    What of those occasions when no text is at issue, but simply a physical object in the picture? How to create a bounding box for this?

    Thank you for all the helpful tips.

    S.G.

    You can also use the move tool, with "Show transform controls" checked in the options.

  • Why the bounding boxes are different between the XI Acrobat Pro and Acrobat DC?

    Hello

    Firstly apologies if this been asked elsewhere, but so far I have failed to find a solution.

    I have Acrobat Pro XI and Acrobat DC, each on two different PCs using Windows 8. Why the function edit text & Images interprets the same PDF document differently when displaying the bounding boxes. In Pro XI he produced 7 inclusive about 7 decent size paragraphs of text only. In MS bounding boxes are reduced to only 3 each effectively covering most thick of text in the document. To quickly select 3 of 7 bounding boxes to remove them entirely from my PDF seems not to be possible in DC, where I appear instead of having to select large portions of the text instead and delete accordingly.

    I don't see where in preferences maybe you can change the 'sensibility' or 'threshold' to distribute a PDF file in smaller sizes (but more) bounding boxes. Is it possible to make DC behave like a Pro XI?

    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Help please with bounding boxes!

    Hello

    I'm new to Illustrator and I have a problem with what I think are the bounding boxes. All my bounding around text and image boxes are missing, so I can't resize or change the text as a paragraph or resize objects. Instead a bounding box appears around my work plan alone, then I can only resize everything as a whole. After you have clicked several times to select a paragraph, it appears (see photo). This possibility only to remove and re-add the text on a single line, but I'm unable to select or change the entire paragraph. Also out of the tool bar above my fonts and and size appear no more.

    How can I get my return to normal bounding boxes? Or if not the bounding boxes, what do you think is the problem?    Thank you!!Screen Shot 2015-09-25 at 10.11.36 PM.png

  • Scripting: Bounding Box paragraph Style

    I just discussed with the Om de Support technique Adobe.  He informs me that I'm trying to do is possible with scripts, but I'm not qualified to do this at all, so I was hoping that the community here might be able to help me.  What I'm trying to do is this...

    I'm laying on a document that has some paragraphs that need to be surrounded by a box with a 1 p 0 black line. When the paragraph in question is shared between two columns top half of the box must surround the text in the first column and the bottom half of the box outline the text at the top of the next column. In other words, the box should be split as well as the paragraph. When in the middle of a column, the box is intact. I drew the box by hand, but when the text is rearranged for a reason all the boxes must be moved and a lot of 3 lines of half of the boxes must be be redrawn. I'm looking for a way to do the same thing programmatically by creating a style to manage not only the text but the bounding box as well.

    Here is a screenshot of a PDF document finished illustrating both a bounding box in the middle of a column and a separation between the columns.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
