Illustrator :: How To Apply Subscript To Regular Letters (not Just Numbers)
Feb 13, 2014
Illustrator applies the subscript effect only to numerical characters, e.g. 1,2,etc. But it does NOT apply it to alphabetical characters, e.g. a, b, c etc. I observe this using the default Myriad Pro font, as well as other fonts.
How do I apply subscript to regular letters (not just numbers)?
p.s. I am using the Ctrl+T menu, then go to OpenType tab and select Subscript under Position setting, and observe the issue above. Am I doing something wrong here?
For some reason when I try to upload my photos it is coming up with an error that states "only letters and numbers are allowed" "Please remove all illegal characters" then it will say "1 of how many" I went into the preferences and changed all of that info under the file information. I am making sure there are no illegal characters there. I am using Lightroom 3.
I use Adobe Illustrator CS4 in a MAC. I want to establish a chemical formula MO3- with Illustrator. It seems that I can only first type NO3, and then set 3 as subscript, afterwards I input -, and set it as superscript. But in this case 3 and – are not consistent in the horizontal position.
So I am wondering how to set up subscript and superscript to the same word at the same time?
I want to import a .ps file I used to create via latex and gnuplot. I can import the graphics and so on, however I get the question if I should import the text. Then I want to import it as curves. However I get asked again which font I want to use. Afterwards I got a partly mess, becuase Corel Draw X6 only imports a few letters correctly. How can I import all letters and numbers as curves?
Constructing a grid (centers) with letters and numbers,I follow to set a grid for a plan (All what I need here is a lisp file that provides serial numbers and letters for the grid):
-Grid (centers) are provided to the existing columns -Circles are plot at the end of these centers to accommodate labels -Numbers & letters labels are provided -Numbers and letters are edited to put them in serial order. Here is the issue, as serial number and letter is done manually, then this is a source for errors!
The attached lisp file does do this sort of work but doesn’t allow choosing the direction of numbering lettering! In the same plan, if I need to have the numbers to start from right (instead of starting from left) then this is impossible using that lisp. This is the only part of the code that needs to be enhanced. Also, the “auto number” command does the same thing but work with numbers bit not for letters.
More and more often I come across exhibits where the text has a background mask shaped like the letters and numbers, used in the callout. Typically I see this in GIS software based exhibits. Looking for text that can be used in CAD that functions similiarly? Currently working in 2011 Civil 3d.
Lisp file to get serial letters and numbers from existing ones,
I got a lisp file (attached) from experts in the form which does generate serial letters and numbers from existing ones.
The issue with this lisp file is that it doesn’t give the opportunity to choose the direction of numbering (top to bottom/bottom to top/left to right/right to left) as shown in the screenshot below
How this lisp can be developed to give the user the chance to choose the direction of numbering?
I am using Corel for driving a fiber laser through a dedicated Net connection not available to the rest of the network and it and my computer are right next to the switch.
My problem is that when I send a job from the PC to the laser it works fine. If I make a small change on the graphics, I save it and send a new job to the laser. Quite often, some part of my grapics is left off the plot even though I didn't touch that graphic or mod it. So I send the job over again and now somewhere else is missing some of the graphic word...usually a word or a letter or number. I usually turn off the computer or get out of Corel and come back in and it is fixed. That doesn't sound like a network dropped or corrupted graphic. I have tried turning off the laser with Corel still up and it doesn't fix the problem when I bring the laser on line again.
I've got my grid & bubbles as a separate construct that I bring into my different plans. When I bring it into my reflected ceiling plan, the grid shows up, the bubble's extension lines show up, but the bubbles and numbers/letters contained within are not showing up in the reflected display...
I have Arial installed on my computer, and it works in all my other Adobe programs, but in Illustrator it does not come up in the drop down menu. I have all the other versions of it there (narrow, italic, bold etc..) just not regular!
I use Illustrator cc version 17.1.0 (32bit) on window 7 pro sp1. I have to install JasmineUPC font on window 7 already. It have Bold , Bold Italic, Italic and Regular fonts in system . I have to run llustrator it cannot find JasmineUPC Regular font .
I have subroutine that retrieves a list of detail numbers in a drawing. Sometimes there are missing numbers. I am looking to find a list of any missing numbers.
Example -
(setq List_DN (list 1 2 3 5 6 7 10 11 12 17))
Missing numbers are - 4,8,9,13,14,15,16
I would like a subroutine to take the List_DN are return the following missing numbers as text
I am trying to link my parts list to a drawing however all balloons have different numbers.
I open the assembly and check everything out from vault I open my bom and change item numbers. When I get back to my drawing and apply for auto balloon I get completely different item numbers in my balloons. We just updated our software to a new 2012 version so it's maybe something with set up.
Is there a way to sync callout numbers to correspond with note numbers. When I add or delete notes in my drawings it takes to much time to update the callout number in the drawings. I need to figure out a way for the note and corresponding callout to change at the same time.
Ok so I used Image Trace on a .jpeg logo. The logo is black rectangle with white text in it. My problem is that when I traced it, the black space became the object and the letters are negative space. Is there a way to turn the letters into objects?
I hereby have a school note report from my little brother. He told me he had some bad notes in his last period and I would like to make a fake copy of it.
Basically, I scanned his 3th period notes and I would like to change some and add some
How you can remove numbers and add new ones over it and add numbers with the same digital code used on the old ones to put those in empty notes
I am, using Ai (CS6). I've produced a poster I'm fairly happy with, but black background is affecting red and green type on top of the black...
Possibly one hint towards a solution is that I have one photo with a transparency and the lettering that is on top of that transparency isn't affected by the black background.
The transparency was started by creating a cut-out of a mugshot in Ps CS6, using the magnetic tool, previously creating a transparent background layer.
Anyway, the long and the short is, if a tiff photo transparent background can keep out the black background, how can I create a transparent layer with similar properties.
Is there an easy way in Illustrator to add strokes inside letters to get an effect something like this? I know you can just draw the lines, but it never looks quite right.
I have text that I live traced and I am trying to mask vertical lines through the letters. When I do this the text turns white. When I ungroup and do it one at a time only one letter works the others turn white. When I use make a compound path still only one letter will work and the other letters turn white.
I just purchase CS6 and I have not had time to do tutorials and I have a deadline to meet...
