Photoshop Elements :: Different Blocks Of Text And Colors Changing From Letter To Letter Within Words

Jun 26, 2013

I have a project with many different blocks of text, and colors changing from letter to letter within words.
 
How do I identify what any given color is?
 
When I click on a letter, it shows me a visual block of the color, but doesn't tell me what the corresponding color number is.
 
Problem being, if I see one letter and want to take its color to use it elsewhere, I have no way of knowing what that color is.

Illustrator :: How To Stretch Portion Of A Letter

Feb 27, 2014

I think stretch is the right word I'm looking for... I figured out how to outline the text, and I ungrouped the outline. However if I stretch the whole letter, the left "leg" of the 'R' goes down as well. I just want to stretch the right "leg" of the 'R' so that it reaches the bottom of the word Agency.

Illustrator :: How To Know The Exact Letter Height

Sep 19, 2013

I am currently using CS2 working in a sign shop designing signs, banners and vehicle lettering.
 
When working with text I need to know the exact letter height, not the em and without the leading. I need it exactly the way it would measure if converting the text to outlines. The reason I need this information is that when I output the lettering to a cutter/plotter to cut vinyl media I need to know the exact measurement so I can nest my lettering on my media size. The media is typically 24" wide which gives me 22.5" of available space once the pinch rollers on the machine are considered. Pinch rollers are rollers that engage a knurled driving wheel and "pinches" the media between them and thus guides the media through the plotter. Of course, when using any media one must make the best use of it to avoid making scrap or using more than is needed for the job at hand. Converting text to outlines gives me that measurement.
 
One time awhile back I did a google search on this and found a one or two button fix that made the bounding box snap to the exact "ruler" height of the text. It worked great. But I got away from design work for a short period. When I returned I'd forgotten the process. Back when I did find it I never bookmarked or made a text file explaining the process and I'm ost in finding it again.
 
I don't know exactly how I worded the google search but the answer I was looking for came up on the first page. That's probably why I didn't feel the need to bookmark it or write it down. Now, I've googled dozens of different wordings for my question and get nothing. It's likely a nomenclature/jargon issue and I've yet to stumble on it again.
 
As it is, when I get to the point that I need to know the exact ruler height of my lettering I convert my text to outlines. But then, as sometimes happens, I'll desire to change the font or try someting different but the text is not live so I'll have to start over with that line of lettering.

Illustrator :: How To Change Leading Of Individual Letter In A Text

Jun 13, 2013

I thought I once knew how to change the leading of an individual letter in a text, but now I can't remember how to. Do you know the short cut? An example would be using the word Tooth and changing the T to have the top aligned with the cross of the other t in the word!

Illustrator :: How To Erase Portion Of Font Letter Tail

Nov 7, 2013

I want (no need to!) erase the long tail 'f' on my this logo. So I added a white text box and filled it in. (see figure 2) That worked until I wanted to put the logo on a colored background.

I originally did this on Microsoft Word. The Illustrator people told me that this would work and so I spent a boatload of money this stay at home mom does not have.. and now I'm awfully frustrated because 14 hours later....lots of tutorials later.  I'm back to square one.But, I did learn a lot of info that I don't need to know. 
 
Besides the fact that I looked at about 5,000 different f's in fonts.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Cutting Solid Into Two With Non-planar Cutting Plane

Aug 2, 2012

Is there a way to cut a solid into two pieces using a non-planar cutting plane?  I have been tasked with calculating the volume of concrete damage in a chute block.  I have a sketch of the damage on the chute block.  I created the chute block as a solid and then drew the damaged area extents using plines.  This created non-planar plines.  Is there a way to get this to work that will allow me to see the volume of the concrete damage?  I need an easy way to do this, there are 50 chute blocks all the same size but with varying degrees of damage

Illustrator :: Cutting An Image Using A Vector

Nov 16, 2012

i have a vector that i want to apply an image to. So i dropped the image into illustrator, and made a clipping mask, but if i go to save it, or print it, it tries to print space where the image is, even though it's only inside the vector outline. Kind of confusing with the wording, see pics, but I just want the vector to cut out of the image, and get rid of the rest of the image.

Illustrator :: Cutting Out A Shape With Compound Path?

May 23, 2013

Cs6 here.... I am trying to cut out a simple shape to allow the area under the shape to be  trasnparent or Alpha. Like a Mask. Except when I use the Mask it does at it should do and mask the area where the shape is and MASKING or removing the areas not under the mask. I tried Compound path but I am not getting any result from it. My shape stays right on top of my work and does not "cut it out" to allow the Background to shine through as an alpha channel. See pics for clarity. I want to reverse this where the circle is cut out and the rest stays visible...
