Text copied from Illustrator CC 2014.1.0 pasta like Image

I've seen similar discussions, but none of the answers are no help for me as of today.

Background:

I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10

All my CC applications are updated to the (01/11/14)

I'm also updating on all other software on my Mac

My goal:

Copy text in illustrator

Stick it in the Mail and TextEdit Notes live editable text

Results:

Text glue as pdf or some type of an image according to the application

What it looks like:

I'll start from the beginning to avoid questions later.

I open a new document in Illustrator.

Screen Shot 2014-11-01 at 3.21.41 PM.png

These are the settings to Clipboard in my preferences.

Please Note - I tried all combinations of these parameters. Turn them on and off one at a time and in combination does nothing to change the final product. I have disabled them all for this example, in order to scramble the not.

Screen Shot 2014-11-01 at 3.24.35 PM.png

I type the text. I did not use a text box in this example. I just clicked on the page with the text tool and type this line. There are no additional attributes. You can see that the parameters of characters are the most basic. Yet once, please note - I tried to use a text box with the same result.

Screen Shot 2014-11-01 at 3.24.53 PM.png

I use the text tool to highlight the text, then copy the text. I do not use the selection tool to select the text and copy.

Screen Shot 2014-11-01 at 3.25.13 PM.png

This is what looks like the Clipboard. Note that the content is "text".

If I type the text in PS (for example) and copy to the Clipboard, it says "text". However, the text that I copy off PS I can stick anywhere in the editable text.

If I type the text in the Notes and copy to the Clipboard, it said RTF. This text can also be pasted anywhere text as editable.

This leads me to believe that it is a problem centered on Illustrator I have experience.

Screen Shot 2014-11-01 at 3.25.56 PM.png

I click in the body of an email and paste. Seems fine, but when I try to click in the text (for example, between the words 'in' and 'Mail') I can't do.

Screen Shot 2014-11-01 at 3.26.06 PM.png

The line of words is highlighted and not editable.

Screen Shot 2014-11-01 at 3.28.03 PM.png

If I click with the right button on the image of the text line and select "Open the attachment" you can see the Clipboard pasted as uneditable text and .pdf.

Screen Shot 2014-11-01 at 3.28.26 PM.png

Interestingly, if I open a new note and try to paste the line of text, it sticks as a .pdf file but just the icon appear. Double clicking on the icon will open the text in PDF in acrobat.

I don't have this problem until the CC2014 updates were made. I would like to know if there is something that can be done, or is this a bug in Illustrator. If it's a bug I don't want to spend time looking for workarounds. I will use another program when I know there's a lot of work to copy / paste to do. It's embarrassing for my Illustrator old files that have now issue when I open them in CC2014.

I know that I can use the "paste and match style" but it's a force of habit to use the shortcut for paste. It is also a ridiculous change of Illustrator for the cut/paste to act that way. If indeed it was planned and not a bug, what would be the advantage?

If someone saw the problem that I am eager to know what is happening.

Finally, if there is no other way to solve this problem then can anyone remind me how to customize the combinations of shortcut keys in Mail, Notes, and TextEdit? I seem to remember (long ago) being able to customize certain shortcuts in some applications, but I've never done in something else that Adobe applications and even then it was CS5.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello, I finally found away around this really annoying "bug" / "Headache" If you select the text (NOT with the text with the cursor tool) then right click and select "export selection" ( http://i.imgur.com/gM0hIPR.png ) and export it to SVG ( http://i.imgur.com/QaWiOYl.png ) and then open what you export in your browser (Internet explorer, chrome ect) and you can copy the text from there ( http://i.imgur.com/YJuE8JX.png ). I was very disappointed because even to try to copy it from Adobe Illustrator into Adobe Muse all right programs would freeze and close so I think he calls a 'suite' when you can not just simply copy and paste text from one to another is a bit of a cheek. Anyway hope this helped someone out there in the world

  • Why objects copied from illustrator vector cc do not stay the same size when pasted in pho

    I think that the problem started with the latest updates. Work normal flow of copy and paste no longer functions properly.

    Photshop changes the dimensions of the vector illustrations copied from illustrator and pasted in photoshop.

    If I start with a 6 x 6, vector shape in illustrator, then select copy, I should be able to enter in photoshop, select file and then new.

    and the document should automatically extract the dimensions of the Clipboard. For some reason any 6 "x 6" opens a 0.6 x 0.6 in document.

    Even if I manually change the document to 6 in. x 6 in., another thing I copy for more than 6 x 6 gets its dimensions changed to fit inside the illustrator document. I cannot copy and paste a 10 x 2 vector in 6 "x 6" document without changing the dimensions of photoshop

    If it fits inside the document. Any ideas on how to fix? Thank you.

    Hi Kelly,

    I think a number of things are colliding together. Looks like your main concern is that pasted files are to be resized to fit existing document limits, correct?

    There is an option in the preferences to disable this behavior. Do you know if you have this option unchecked

    Kind regards

  • How to capture the copy from other applications?

    Hello world

    I would like to know if there is a way to capture text copied from another application using a MenuItem to my Application?

    It would be like this:

    1. You open my application and it will record the MenuItem in another application like e-mail messages.
    2. You open an e-mail message, select some text and click on my menu item.
    3. It would open my application (it could be a just dialogue) which will display the selected text.

    Is this possible?

    You will need to retrieve the text from the Clipboard when your menu item is called.

    See Clipboard in the documentation of the API.

  • Problem when copying form Illustrator to Photoshop - change of Dimensions

    Hi guys,.

    Having a very annoying problem that I noticed since the last update CC.


    If I have, say, a 100 x 100 mm square in Illustrator and I copy and move to Photoshop, create a new document using the Clipboard in the preset, it gets the evil mm dimensions. My understanding is this should be consistent and not affected by things like the DPI/PPP and that I never had the problem before. It's by everyone in our studio and we all miss the Mac of CC version.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    Good news, it's fixed in the latest update!

    beopot, masiyou,

    It seems that the problem is caused by a corrupted folder called en_US or similar (according to language) in the folder Adobe Illustrator 18 parameters, see post by Jules #7 in this thread.

    https://forums.Adobe.com/thread/1595766

    the solution should therefore move or rename this folder (or the entire record of 18 settings of Adobe Illustrator).

  • Why are my sizes of Panel, icon and text Illustrator CC 2014 too big? He treats me as a person.

    weird illustrator sizing.jpg

    The photo on the left is Illustrator CC 2014 and the right one is Illustrator CC. As you can see the icons and text on the left expand, resulting in less space for the document. I couldn't see anything in the preferences in this regard. Does anyone know how can I fix? None of my other CC 2014 applications done this... This is a computer setting or adjustment of the CC?

    Hi Benjamingill,

    It seems that your windows scale parameter is > = 125% and is put across the user interface to adapt to the parameter, as in 17.1 he used scale of OS to trigger at > = 126% and many complaints from users that have is not to scale to 125% scale which has been the case for most users. If you keep your windows less than 125% scale, it will launch in the scale to 100%.

  • Copy and paste from Illustrator - actual size? (not to scale)

    Hello, I have a question about something that I met several times and can't seem to find an answer to. when I copy something of Illustrator and place it in Photoshop (like a SmartObject), I want to set the actual size, rather than adjust to the size of the PS file. For example, say I have a PS 100x50px file. In Illustrator, I create this file PS elements. I have a component in artificial intelligence that is 100 x 50 with text down. If I copy and paste that in PS, it will not match exactly because the text gives a little extra space above and below and it actually copies as say 100x50.74px and is therefore biased (or scale truly wrong, proportionately) when pasted in the PS file. Of course I can resize manually, but it is inefficient and unreliable. It seems that there should be a preference somewhere where you can choose to paste to adapt or stick to actual size, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Can someone help or is it still possible? (seems like it should be) Does make sense? Thanks in advance!

    Ben

    An excellent question. I remember the time to make a document larger than my Clipboard until I found this wonderful setting.

    Go to preferences > General > uncheck Resize Images in Place.

  • Import text from Illustrator styles

    Is it possible to align the text from Illustrator (or any other Adobe program) in InDesign, and preserve the paragraph and character styles? If not, is it possible to paste text at least and preserve local formatting (as when you paste text from Photoshop into an Illustrator document and it is the same font/size etc.).

    I use the latest version of CC.

    Thank you!

    Like InDesign has a complete different text engine as Photoshop and Illustrator (both) have the same, it is impossible to do in simplicity.

    But because that a file is a kind of PDF you can use 3rd party converters as PDF2ID PDF InDesign CC, convert PDF in InDesign CC, open a PDF in InDesign CC.

  • Copy and paste from illustrator to photoshop

    Hello.

    You used to be able to slect tricks in photoshop and copy illustrator, create new from the Clipboard and create a document at a resolution that never, over the largest wreck was the image.

    Now when you do this the image are set to 72 dpi by default, and nothing do you solves this problem for copy/paste is ultra low resolution.

    Is there any solution for this?

    I found a solution.  In each version before the CC versions, you can copy an Illustration of Illustrator (Ctrl + C) for Photoshop (Ctrl + N, Ctrl-V, input) with a nearly lossless image quality.  Since CC came, it no longer works.  The quality of the image in Photoshop is really unacceptable.

    Today, I figured out how to get things to normal.  There are just a few simple steps.

    In Photoshop CC (and this step may or may not be necessary for you) Edit > Preferences > units & rulers, change new Document Preset resolutions, screen resolution of 300 Pixels/inch.  This makes the new default value of documents at 300 dpi.

    Then (and I think that the most important) when you create your new file to paste your Illustrator file in, (for example, Ctrl + N), change the Type of Document in the drop-down list of the Clipboard to the default size of Photoshop.  In my case, who reads the 7 x 5 inches and 300 dpi.  You need to establish your new size of smaller or larger image for all to adapt, but, you will get a really strong and clear image quality when you paste your Illustrator file into the new document.

    Hope that helps.

  • Copy and paste shapes from Illustrator also brings a black background. Why?

    When you copy / paste a shape from Illustrator into Muse, it also brings a black background. Why is it happening and how it delete us?

    Thank you!

    It is a bounding box when you copy vectors from HERE and paste in the file is converted into a raster image of Muse.

    You must copy the vector shape in Photoshop and scale to the size you need and then export it. (Still Raster)

    But you can also export it as .swf and import that muse and it scales well looks good in preview even after that you redimensionnerez the form...   (No bounding box)

  • InDesign crashes suddenly then copy and paste from Illustrator...

    This is a really recent thing that never happened before, it's bugging the hell out of me, and google offers no solution so far...

    I am running Mac OS X Snow Leopard and InDesign + Illustrator CS2

    (It's software company Adobe CS4 or CS3 update is not an option)

    My problem is I'm trying to paste a code bar created in a program called "Easy Creator barcode" in an Illustrator document and vectoriser vectorize then the bar code, copy it and paste it into an InDesign document.

    Everything works fine until I have switch from windows from Illustrator to InDesign document - when I try to paste the code barcode described in the InDesign document, it breaks down just InDesign.

    The strange thing is, the two first bar code copied and pasted with zero problems. When I tried to paste the following, the crash has begun.

    I checked my preferences and checked the permissions of drive, but in vain.

    I don't know what is happening, but to do a quick sort as I have a date deadline for a catalog of this week!

    If anyone has any ideas, tips or solutions they would be greatly appreciated!

    See you soon

    If you have already converted to outlines, there are no police who could be replaced or fail to be integrated in the placed art, so a user error cannot cause a problem that would not also be possible with a pasted graphic.

    But if you stick to keep your job, keep your job. Try to make a copy of the file, then export to .inx and open and save as a new .indd. See if that fixes Watt is screing things up.

  • Image editing in InDesign (copy and paste from Illustrator)

    Hello

    I have a scenario and I hope someone can clarify:

    I'm working on a Mac using Adobe Illustrator & Indesign CS4. Whenever I have copy and paste or drag an image in illustrator into Indesign, this particular chart is not editable in InDesign, and it's ok.  I want it like this to the clerk/typists to use in their InDesign files.

    However, on a PC with Vista, when the chart is copied and pasted/dragged from illustrator into indesign, this graph becomes editable using the direct Selection tool in InDesign.  I want to know is if there is a way to disable this option on the PC version as on mac?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    Perhaps the difference lies with the way Illustrator fits images.

    Here, with my trusty CS3 in 'preferences files and Clipboard' (translated from the french), I have the choice of exporting the Clipboard in the format PDF and AICB format.

    If I understand your message, I guess Mac export as a PDF and Vista exports AICB format.

    An audit of preferences would help with this,

    Good luck.
