CorelDRAW X4 :: Copy / Paste Options For Text Within Document
Jun 19, 2012
i have a 2 artistic text blocks (both with different fonts) in same corel document and when i ctrl+c/ctrl+v from one to other it copy/paste not only the text but also font type/size and color.
I want just the text copied not all the properties.
In the last 2 days Corel has decided to start changing Artistic Text to Paragraph Text when I copy & paste it across documents, completely changing the font, size & colour of what I am copying.
I've just done a factory reset & it's still doing it.
I don't recall doing anything that would change a setting.
The text I am copy & pasting are disclaimers that are all set on 1 document & I copy & paste them to a proof as needed.
I have a problem in trying to copy text from an existing multi column text box and pasting it into another existing text box. It just doesn't work. If I copy text from a single column text box into another text box, single or multi column, it does work.
The only was to copy text from a multi column text box is to use paste special which then creates a completely new single column text box and pastes the text there. I loose all the formatting.
I can then copy the text from the text box created by that paste special process and then copy that to where I want it to go, but of course I then have to reset all the formatting.
I'm using the latest version of Corel Draw X6 -this probem however seems to have been introduced in X6 as I've just open X5 on my system and the copy/paste functon works as it shoud.
For some time I was using CorelDraw 12 with Windows XP and Excel 2007.I normally make some tables in Excel which I copy and paste into Corel using "Paste special"/Picture/Enhanced Metafile. In Windows XP there was no problem. Since I switched to Windows 7, I have the following problems:
- The font Wingdings 3 comes out as Arial.
- The second problem is a very strange thing: Some characters, such as ,-"; , always at the END of the line, just dissapear. It happens sometimes, not always, and I can't see absolutely no logic in it: I copy the same thing, paste it several times, and sometimes the comma comes out, sometimes not. I remember that this happened to me ONCE, long time ago, when I was still using XP, but then I restarted Corel and it stopped making problems. But now, with Windows 7, it happens almost all the time. I tried it on a few different PCs and I even tried it with Corel X4. Always the same problem.
In my one file I am unable to do copy and past command in paragraph text mode in one particular paragraph text handle. Can't find the reason. But in same file with new artistic or paragraph text handle I can do copy and past.
I am having trouble with copy paste . When I copy with base point, and try to paste all the paste options are inactive. is there a switch that I have off? What''s the fix.
If it's a bug, then I cannot believe it wasn't caught before the release. So here it is. I simply put artistic text down on page 1. Select the text and copy to clipboard. Add a new page and paste the text. On my computer, the text changes from artistic text (as copied to clipboard) to paragraph default text left justified across the center of the page. It doesn't matter how much text I select, it always pastes on the new page as paragraph text left justified and across the center of the page.
However, if I select artistic text and any other object, copy and paste to a new sheet, it works erectly. Apparently, I now have to select text and an object to insure that the paste feature works properly?
Frequently, I want to copy a bitmap from PhotoPaint X6 and paste into Corel Draw X6. I want to avoid exporting or saving the bitmap - just copy and paste. So what I'm copying is a CPT. I am having no luck pasting into Corel Draw from Photo Paint. I can copy and paste from Photo Paint into WordPerfect X4 although I do get the message that the "OLE object could not be created".
I've used the Copy/Paste from Edit and also the Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V. The option to Paste Special is not available in Corel Draw under these circumstances.
I'm running Vista Home Premium and have installed all updates to the Windows system.
Use Oberon's macro that copies to adobe Illustrator with Draw X5? I haven't been able to make it work. I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that it relies on some of the old Corel scripting commands?
I am not using X6 to fully create all of my artwork just yet. I'm still using X4 for my big jobs, but am fooling around with new features in X6 as I need them and am trying to copy them to the clipboard while in X6 and then paste them into X4.
Whenever I do this, the artwork that I paste into X4 is always pasted as an Object and not a regular vector file like what usually happens while cutting and pasting between previous versions.
Is this a bug or is there a setting that I'm missing in X6 to change it so that it will paste into X4 as a regular vector file?
To avoid this problem for now, I've been having to save the X6 artwork as CDR Version 14 and then import it into X4. It's a waste of time compared to hitting Cntrl+C and Cntrl+V...I know it doesn't seem like much more time, but it adds up over the day.
To speed up the copy/paste, try this one, 1st of all change u r nudge offset to greater than u r document size, select the object tap the left or right arrow keys in keyboard so the object will go on the pasteboard, go to the next page select the object again tap the arrow keys again to get the object on the same position.
My copy / paste operations take several seconds. I'm copying very simple objects, lines, rectangles, etc. but regardless of the size of the object, a copy/paste operation takes 3-5 seconds.
I am not able to copy and paste text from non-Adobe programs (like Keynote or Word) into Photoshop CS6. I get an error message reading "Could not complete the Paste Text command because the clipboard data is empty or invalid." I have tried shutting down Photoshop, shutting down other programs, re-starting my computer, adjusting my Preferences and asking Adobe by phone and chat. I am on a new iMac and have no third party plug-ins installed.
I have not got the hang of layers but i need to copy text/letters from a scanned page
How do i do i copy and paste text from one jpg to create another. I have tried Ctl + c to copy but when i click the other layer to then Ctrl + A and then CTRL + P to paste like a youtbe video suggests, instead of the copied text being pasted on i get a dialogue window for the printer.
when I draw an object (let's say a line that's 10 inches long) and paste it into corel the size varies based on how much I'm zoomed in.
fwiw I'm using 'paste special' and using picture (metafile) this way I can keep the points. if I just paste as autocad I loose the points, and an arc might become a rectangle as far as points go...
I tried DWG and DXF and it's the same problem. metafile lets me keep the edges and such for nodes at least. I'm having the issue primarily with DesignCAD and AutoCAD
Trying to write a srcipt to copy/paste a certain amount of text in these coordinates (ie.: 1.8520, 13.1085, 0.0000) in 100+ drawings to a file (ie.: 123.txt or 123.xls)
I'm stuck on the "paste to file", is this possible?
Why does Revit not allow the copy and pasting of text from, for example, the Formula box in a Family Types Dialog? There are other instances when this also manifests itself but I'm struggling with formulas currently and need to get on.
Illustrator CS5.5 on Mac: When I copy text from one Illustrator document and paste it in a different document, the text canges to Myriad (the deafult font). Is there a setting somewhere to preserve the formatting? Even pasting into an existing text style still changes the font.
Still able to open files saved before yesterday just having problems to open recently saved files (all files since yesterday). It allows to save properly, on preview mode shows what is in the file, size of the file is correct as well. But when trying to open it opens as a blank page or is not opening at all.
Did a test- saved file with a simple objects / text only. Cant open.
plus- doesnt allow to copy & paste.
Reinstall all coreldraw package- still the same problem.
the speed of cutting and pasting, as well as saving a drawing in CorelDraw X5 has drastically slowed down.Could it be a Windows issue and not a Corel issue? I have plenty of RAM and I've defragged.
When I copied text over from Photoshop to illustrator it kept the text formatting. For example the font, font size, color. Now when I use CC and copy paste text from PS to AI, all text formatting is lost and everything is placed as whatever the current AI text setting is.
HOWEVER, pasting from AI to PS WORKS as it should. All font/text formatting is maintained. Is this a bug or is there a setting for this that I just never knew about?
I want to copy a value/text in cells from excel and paste it in specific mtxt that has been made in existing .DWG file.
I have done it by copy and paste, but it doesn't work effectively since there's too many cells to be pasted.
One of my cells entry which should be copy is in D5 and the coordinate of mtxt in autocad is (17,46 15,03 0,000) both of those file is located in same folder
slow copy to clipboard? I have pinned it down to my virus protection. I use McAfee and I notice that my CPU goes up considerably when I do a copy to clipboard under mcshield.exe. When I turn off the McAfee, copy to clipboard in X6 works fast and perfectly.
I want to paste text (numbers) into the command line as I am drawing a line.
In AutoCad 2011/2012 if I paste (CTRL+V), then the numbers in the clipboard will be pasted into the command line and all I have to do is push enter.
In AutoCad 2014 if I paste (CTRL+V), AutoCad will paste the clipboard contents as an mtext object into the drawing.
How do I change the behavior of AutoCad so that I can use "CTRL+V" in the command line?
For clarification these are the exact steps I am trying to do:
1. {type L}
2. {click a point in the drawing} 3. {type CTRL+V} // paste a number as a distance into command line 4. {type ENTER}
I know I can right click the command line and select paste. This option is unnacceptable for my use. I want to be able to CTRL+V text into the command line.
When I copyclip a dimension from one drawing with UCS set to world/north, then paste into another drawing with UCS rotated in Z (south for example), the text remains oriented to north. The original drawing doesn't have to be set to world, just something different from the paste orientation.
Is there a way to have the text orient itself to the current UCS at paste?
We are having problems with text in Illustrator CS6.
1. When we copy / paste text within illustrator all color information is lost. 2. When we save documents in Illustrator CS6 then re-open text with color attributes changes to different random colors!!
For example: If we save an Illustrator document with a paragraph of text that is part red and part black when we re-open the same paragraph might be all gray, or orange or (you pick a color).
