After installing the most recent patch I'm finding that various characters are being substituted for other characters. No rhyme or reason to the substitutions that I can see. Also, with opentype fonts, end swash characters are being dropped into the middle of words. I didn't have any of these problems prior to installing the patch. Turning opentype options on and off doesn't seem to work.
I want to type in gimp(using text tool) with some special characters from my native language like(ā, ē, č, ķ, ģ). If i try to do it in gimp I get á, é, ć, ḱ, ǵ. Are there some settings or plugins that allow me to type these non-English characters like I do it usually.
So I want to type in a column, so I went to type > type orientation. However, Each character is vertical. I want to type two characters on a line, then break to the next 'line', as I'm working on a calendar piece and I want all numbers to be aligned straight up and down.
Windows 7; Photoshop 13 (CS6).I am typing some text in a new layer; no problem so far. I need to insert some special characters that are not on the keyboard, e.g.TōkaiThat also was not a problem; I copied the character from the Windows Character Map.
Now I want to copy/paste more special characters from the Character Map, e.g. ☏ (U+260F) or ✉ (U+2709)
Now all of a sudden this does not work; the pasted characters appear in Photoshop as a boxed X.The font I have been using was Arial, but when I pasted these Unicode characters, the font automatically changed to Myriad Pro. Changing the font back to Arial does not alter the boxed X.
I took these Unicode characters from the Character Map using font Arial Unicode MS. That font does not appear in Photoshop.Questions:are there any Unicode fonts available in Photoshop?is there any other way to paste such characters into Photoshop?
Today is my first day using CS6 and all of a sudden some of my fonts are substituting (to a default font) when I print. The print preview looks normal. These are the exact same files I've been able to print with no problem in CS5. I tried setting Convert All Text to Outlines: On in the print presets and that didn't do it. (and of course I don't want to have to convert all of my text to outlines each time I print).
I also uninstalled and reinstalled my printer last night but I've done that before with no issues so I don't think it's the culprit.
I isolated 3 attributes as you can see with my code. My object is too take the value of blkDESC1 and set it as blktag, and then take blkDESC2 and set it as blkDESC1, and erase blkDESC2.
I run into some issues where i need to change an attribute based on where a block is located on a drawing. I started this routine to select the block, and then select the text that I want to change the block attribute to. It seems like everything is working up until this point. What I want to do is then replace the first selected with the second selection. How would I go about doing that? here's my code so far:
I have a few hundred page CorelDraw document that has one line of text on each page about 6-7 characters long. I need to delete the first 3 characters of text from each line on each page.
i have a long lag whenever I switch from typing english text to chinese characters, and vice versa.
For example, I have two text object: One with english text, another one with a chinese text. Let's say I am currently selecting an english text, can move, can edit.
But when I select chinese text, there's a long lag, like 10-20 seconds of lag before I can move chinese text. By editing the chinese text, there's another long set of lag.
Then, it is smooth to move the chinese text. But, when I select the english text again, there's another set of lag. It's like the program trying to search for something on the background.
This has nothing to do with font types, as they switch pretty easily, but there is a lag when switching between an english font type and a chinese font type.
Is there a way to adjust the kerning between 2 characters of text? I don't want to adjust the kerning of the entire word, just between 2 letters in the word. The font has too much space between the "V" and "A". I've tried using Paragraph Formatting, but that adjusts the entire word.
When opening the attached file and printing it to efi/fiery rip (or adobe pdf), some characters are on top of each other. Word spacing is also to large. Printing the same file with X5 without problem. File is originally created in X5. Tried with the new "update text" feature as well, same issue.
I'm using the trial version of X5 and have noticed that the number of characters that display the file name at the top has been shortened since X3. In some cases I'm not able to even see any of my file name because I have things saved in many subfolders for organizational purposes. It appears that it is limited to about 120 characters, which sounds like a lot, but when using dropbox and other subfolders, can fill up quickly. When I open the same exact file in X3, the name is fully displayed. How to change this? Or is this possibly just a trial version thing? .
I am using CorelDRAW 12 with Windows XP. I would like to type Chinese Characters. 1 specific word can't be shown correctly in CorelDRAW 12. It's "焗" and its read as "Ju" in Chinese. I was going to Text > Encode and check whether the word can be shown or not. In fact, in Encode Dialogue I can see the character well, but when I click "OK" and I can't see it. I get only the rectangle or nothing instead.
I have attached two jpg's so you can see what I mean.
I have been importing this text for a long time and ever since X5 it is doing odd things. When I select the text to edit it, it highlights all of the text area in a light blue color. Usually I can get one edit done, if I try and select any other part again, Corel crashes and I have to re-open my program. As you can see what I have to edit is these strange characters that show up where the apostrophe's are supposed to be.
I've been in touch with the makers of the program I am importing FROM and they have no idea why I'd be having trouble with their text. They say all they use is Aerial.
So I have a bunch of files that were made in MS Excel using Chinese characters in SimSun font. After downloading some language packs the Excel file shows up correctly on my PC. I want to copy and paste the file into Corel. It works fine except some characters show up as a question mark. Most characters (80%) show up fine however.
I have Windows XP, Office 2003, Corel X5, and no understanding of the Chinese language.
After fairly smooth sailing for using X6 I ran into a problem that's caused me to switch back to X5 for the time being :(
I work in files that have thousands of individual characters in them. In X5 if I wanted to change the color of about 10,000 individual characters it would take about 3 seconds to do so. If I do the same thing in X6 I takes at least 30 minutes (or longer, I just killed it by that time).
Working with large amount of texts is incredibly slow X6, not just 5 or 10% or slower, doing somethings takes up to 10x times as long.....
I know there is a lot of features for text in X6 but this decrease in speed puts a complete block in my workflow. Maybe Corel could have a feature that individual text characters have minimal properties associated with them or something?
Here are my specs:
windows 7 64bit with office 2010 installed Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz NVIDIA Quadro 4000 16.0 GB ram
Font Flux Architect characters in normal and bold formats are displayed as blank squares, though italic and bold-italic format display them correctly. Print preview shows all formats correctly.
How to 'install' Type One fonts under Windows, especially when I want to use them with FontNav. Should the pairs be kept together within the same folder? I tend to use multiple sets of folders for other font types to aid me in organizing them within FontNav, and I love FontNav for its ability to make fonts active or inactive.
I've noticed that I can download open type fonts on my computer (OS Windows 7) but if I type them out in my Corel X3, nothing shows up. Even files that I open up in Corel that have open type fonts in them, no text shows.
I use CorelDraw X4 to design CD covers that need Devanagari characters. However I found that using fonts like Mangal (which is used for devanagari in MSOffice) is not supported - the double-consonants are displayed incorrectly. how to type in Devanagari in CDR X4?
I'm trying to create buttons with a cutout type effect as pictured here [URL].......
I think can do it with a bitmap, but I want to retain the button as a vector. I've tried messing around with shadows and embossing, but cannot get the look right. (i'm using X4)
In Coreldrawx6 64bit when i resize the font, change the font in another type. How is possible this? This problem is typing measure in top toolbar, not if i resize manually. I post a sequence about this problem.
Figure 1) The text CdC is a Courier10 BT and Laboratory i Clarendon BT Figure 2) I change measure in top and fonts change all graphic.
As part of a "kit", I need to export my files to 8 different file types. I've never really checked the .ai file type before as to how it appears. I did, however, tonight and found awful results. When I import my .ai file back in it looks awful. I'll post samples so you can see.... How to fix this on export? (How to upload both files so the one you see below is the result of the .ai export)
I seem to vaguely recall a method from some vector drawing program where you can press or hold ctrl or alt or shift and change the next type of node you will draw while using the bezier tool, or the pen tool, or the multi-line tool.
Is there any way to do this in 12, or use VBA to make it happen. I really just need to switch back and fourth between cusp and symmetrical.
