is there any solution to change a special character font in paragraph.
I'm formatting a book in corel and want to change all the question marks (?) in a different font while retaining other characters in same fonts. Is there any possibility in corel? I've searched on internet but there is nothing useful.
I would like to have a macro to select all the text in a document (independently if it is in a group or ungrouped), and change its font to another one.
I have tried to record a macro by myself, but appear a text that says that these functions could not be recorded.
I am trying to add text to a set of text strings in a drawing.
The tricky part is that not all of the text strings are the same.
For example, change part numbers
123, 125, 456, 892
to
123-70, 125-70, 456-70, 892-70
Is there a way to do this for all of the strings at once?
How would I go about changing the font of a text through all pages? I've used Find/Replace tool but it stops on one page.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI was writing code for my custom .net extension dll and one of the procedure involved therein was to replace the Text of MTEXT and DBTEXT entities with some predetermined Text String. I am using C#, AutoCAD 2012, and Visual Studio 2010. Here is the part of code wherein I am trying to replace the Text String of the MTEXT or DBTEXT entities.
foreach (SelectedObject selectedObject in selectionSet) { Entity currentEntity = transaction.GetObject(selectedObject.ObjectId, OpenMode.ForWrite, false) as Entity; if (currentEntity == null) { continue; } if (currentEntity.GetType() == typeof(MText)) { ((MText)currentEntity).Contents = textToCopy; } else { ((DBText)currentEntity).TextString = textToCopy; } } transaction.Commit();
The issue is that the text of the MTEXT or DBTEXT is not getting replaced with the string I am trying to. I debugged the code and it correctly hits the setting of MText.Contents == "Some String" and also transaction.commit(). But the text of the MTEXT still remains to the old value. Is this the correct way of changing the text of MTEXT / DBTEXT through the .Net API.
Is there a way when finding and replacing a text string to style the block of copy. My problem is that I have some color codes given by the customer that now need to be converted to our internal color matches on our production drawings.
The original string of text looks like this:
Holder: P1 (Metallic Silver)
What I’m getting when I go to replace this string is:
Holder: Natural Satin
What I want is:
Holder: Natural Satin
I do not want the replaced text to be italicized. I'm thinking since the original string ends with an italic style that the replacement string is also italicized. There are about 50 pages of drawings with about 10 colors on the job and some pages have them entered in more than one place. So that's a minimum of 500 entries and defititely more considereing the multiple places these are called out. I'd really rather not have to copy and paste all of these by hand. I'm use to FreeHand, which would respect the font styling of pasted text in the find and replace diaglog.
I have set Ariel as my default font for paragraph & artist text with 12 pt.. On making some change of text with font say to New Times Roman 18 pt. then the new artist text or paragraph text is 18 pt. as default font.

View 1 Replies View Relatedhow to curve text within a shape, as paragraph text, not artistic text? (See my attached image.)
I have drawn the shape, inserted the text as paragraph text, but the text always wants to sit straight. I am so frustrated as I can find a workaround in either Corel or Adobe CS products. I have tried using artistic text in Corel, but have to do it line by line - and this brings other problems, such as I cant justify each line with each other, and sometimes a character jumps up relative to the other characters and the entire paragraph does not taper in...so this is not a solution, apart from the fact it will take me FOREVER to insert line by line....I would like to treat the text as a multiple line paragraph, and follow the shape.
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.

When I copy properties from one paragraph frame to another, only font and its size is copied, not paragraph settings (spacing before/after paragraph, bullets, indentation etc.). I never had problems with this - it started a couple of days ago (the update??).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been using CorelDraw X3 for a while now and whenever I have copied and pasted artistic text is has simply pasted over itself in the same place for me to move wherever I want to.
Yesterday I copied some artistic text and when I hit paste it pasted as paragraph text, in a different size and font and in the center of the page. Have I accidentally and unawares changed a setting?I know I can get around this by duplicating instead of pasting but it is frustrating as it is a feature I use constantly.
I am taking a pdf file into coreldraw home & student X6 to edit and change layout from landscape to portrait. When it opens the paragraphs are either objects or artistic text, so when adjusting the bounding box the text stretches instead of wrapping. I have tried both importing the file as well as opening it. What am I doing wrong?

When resizing paragraph text, the default is that the shape size changes, but the text properties stay the same, so if it was a 12 pt before, it will be a 12 pt after.
IF you hold ALT while resizing, it will reduce the size of the text and move tabs so that it gives the same appearence as before. This is great. A 12 pt might be reduced to an 8 or 6 pt or less.
BUT if you select the paragraph text with a bitmap OR an Object that completely overlaps it. Holding alt looses the ability to maintain perspective and proper proportions.
I can reproduce on video if you need me to.

View 3 Replies View Relatedi failed to find one which would change string of a text to other for all types of objects. I mean it was usually either only multitext, or only text, dimensions or attributes.creating one which would change in abt 200 drawings:
-001
-002
-003
to:
-00001
-00002
-00003
in attributes, text, multittext, leaders, multileaders, dimensions..... at the same moment?
It is meant to be used in ScriptPro (by loading lisp in script).
If not possible, then can also open each file and run the lisp in each of them - still would save lot of time.
I have a Corel file that contains the index to my book. I would like to change all the numbers (just the numbers) to italic. Is there any way to do this with the Find and Replace text ( or any other) command? I don't see any formattting parameters for replacing text in the dialogue box.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI need to import DXF files to Corel, but when I import them, the text appear as paragraph text, not as artistic text...that's not a problem if the paragraph text includes all the text...but it do not do that. Some texts appears as paragraph with red lines (so it is not possible to see it, as well as not possible to convert directly to artistic with Ctrl+F8). Also, some paragraph text appear as 2 lines instead of just one, because it do not feed in wide but yes in height.
I would like to import the text directly as artistic...or as paragraph,but with the same appearance of the original DXF file.
I have been able to do a text wrap which works great. However, I need to be able to move the boxes along with the paragraph if, say, I change the beginning and causing the entire thing to shift.
So far when I enter anything and the boxes are just inserted with text wrap the words move together but leave the boxes where they are. I can move the boxes along after words by just pushing the down arrow but that means I have to go through and move each one which is time consuming and frustrating.
Is there anyway to perhaps insert the box directly into the paragraph so that it is all one thing?
Or is there another way to make this work?
I just installed CorelDRAW X6 on a new 64bit Win-7 machine.

CDR X6 leading.PNG
There are years since I worked in CorelDraw. However, recently I got a project from a client. I have to implement 14 languages translations into a document. The work is, so far, Copy/Paste from MS Word, paragraph by paragraph. I didn't find a better way, yet.
At a point I run into a problem. Inside a Paragraph Text frame the text has a strange leading, or something (See attachment).
I have a document of 300 pages or so of flowing text which I wish to edit into chapters.
Ideally I would like to select the start of a line of text and place it at the top of a page where it will then stay without breaking the paragraph links, as in Word (this also maintains the word count across the whole document).
Alternatively, could I simply break the paragraph links? When I attempt this now with Arrange/Break Paragraph Text, all that happens is
that a new page with an unlinked text frame appears, but the 'before' and 'after' pages are still linked, which defeats the objective.
The only way I've found to divide the document up is to copy it whole and then delete pages before and after the required chapter breaks and then reassemble them into one document, which is pretty laborious.
I'm sure I'm missing something really basic here.
