Photoshop :: Losing Formatting When Pasting Text In CS6
Aug 21, 2013
I am trying to copy and paste text in Photoshop CS6 and I am losing the oh-so-valuable formatting. I am referring to two boxes side by side in Photoshop that contain text.
I love the text in the first box, but when I try to duplicate the formatting in the second box right next to it, the text looks completely different. And, when I try to just paste some of the text from the first box to the second box, the 20 px text suddenly becomes 96.3 px text.
Even though I go through all of the formatting options available and duplicate what was in the first box, the text in the second box ends up looking nothing like the first box even though they contain exactly the same formatting, font type - everything.

I'm looking for a way to be able to copy text from another program (Microsoft Word) and then, using the Text tool in Photoshop (CS6), paste that text, but where it retains the correct italics formatting I had in the other program--and not as an image of text (Ctrl+P), in which the formatting is present, as a flat image, but rather as an actual unpasteurized and editable Text layer.
For example, the sentence “I told you..” where 'told' is italics, simply pastes into Photoshop as "I told you.." without the original formatting. Is there a way to get Photoshop to recognize formatting from pastes without my having to manually re-apply the formatting myself? This would be a hassle over a long period of time. If necessary I would be willing to use a plug-in that allows for this sort of recognition.

The problem just came today while i tried to copy/paste text from Ms Word. As I usually do it asks me about formatting options before pasting text but today its not working the way it should. It simply pastes plain text without all formatting I did to my document in Ms Word. I even tried to repair my software but nothing worked.

I was telling an engineer the other day that I could probably insert his general notes from MS Word into AutoCAD and create nice clean pdf files of the CD sheets that he could email to clients. On second inspection I could tell that, yes I could copy, paste it in, but fixing all the formatting would be a nightmare. Is there any way to retain the formatting such as numbering, tabs etc. when bringing it in to AutoCAD? The idea is to have it be an editable document, so I don't want to just bring it in as a OLE object, pdf or scan.

I am trying to paste a highly detailed ASCII artwork from a webpage into illustrator. Illustrator is aligning the text (at least as far as I can tell) to the left and distorting the artwork.

When pasting between illustrator documents all formatting is lost and images do not move over.example, working on a new flyer, I often borrow from existing flyers since copy and pricing is good, just usually making flyers that have different combinations of products etc.
So I select some text boxes and images from one illustrator document, control copy and then try to control v into another illustrator document and all that gets pasted is the text which is formulated. You'd think i had copied and pasted something from notepad.
The problem does not happen 100% of the time, but it's like 50/50 it seems.Sometimes when the problem occurs, I'll spam control c a few times and then control v will paste as you'd expect. But the problem occurs whether I use control c, or edit copy.I'm using CS3..It even happens when I try to cut and paste within the same document.

I have drawing template files created by a former employee that need to have the old company logo removed and replaced in the title block. If I double click on the title block, all information displays, except the graphic for the logo. If I explode it, I lose all the .dwt formatting. How can I replace the logo without losing the formatting of the rest of the drawing template?

trying to copy txt from an outside text editor and pasting them into an open, editable text layer in my workspace. The problem is that I can COPY the text fine, but when I click over to PS to paste it into the open editable text layer it either pastes the previous text from my clipboard OR it won't paste anything at all. I can then go into any other text field on a browser, spreadsheet document, a different text editor, notepad, etc and successfully paste the proper batch of text I wanted to paste into PS. Sometimes I have some rather large files open 50+megs when I notice this happen. I have to save my work and close out entirely of PS and then open it again before I can begin editing my original document again and successfully paste the text into the open editable text layer. This may last for a few COPY/PASTE sessions of additional text in additional text layers, but then begins displaying the symptoms I described above.
I am on Win7 on an AlienWare M17XR3 laptop with 16G RAM and AMD Radeon HD 6900M Series display adapter.I assume it's either in my PS performance settings which I have PS using 10413MB RAM and has over 350G scratch disk space. If it's not that I guess my laptop system performance settings which I've never tinkered with since I purchased it.

I was trying to duplicate the star wars scrolling into space text movie demo in PS CS4. I finally accomplished it.
But to adjust the text, it requires the FULL text format. I had the full format button in view, but could not use it. The only buttons that worked were left, center, and right. None of the buttons on the right would toggle.
I used the key shortcut CTRL-SHFT-F to get it to work.
I highlighted the text and nothing could move the focus to the FULL format button..

I know I can rotate text with the rotate command or from the properties palette, but if I'm editing text and the text formatting toolbar is displayed, why don't I have the ability to modify the rotation right there? How do I get it there? Can I customize this toolbar?

When text is pasted from one CS5 document into another and is inserted into the existing text in the destination doc, is comes in as a size different from either the source or distination size. Both docs are of the same resolution. The text being transferred is acquiring new formatting somehow. These are older docs, I don’t know what I might have done with/to them previously.

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?

Can I format multiple layers of text at one time?
Also, can I write in paragraph format - so lines get evenly spaced?

When I copy some text from one part of a layout to another, it retains the font settings of the original text. How can I have the text just be text and take on the format of the paragraph I'm pasting into?
For instance, I copy some words into a headline, I don't want them to be 12 pt Times, so I have to re-apply the formatting.
Currently I paste into an external text editor and copy again so that it is just text without formatting. Is there a way to do this in Illustrator?

Is there a setting to change the text frame size when pasting a block of text?
For example if text is pasted into a blank page with the either the pick or text tool active the text frame on each page is 8.3"x10.8" on a 8.5"x11" page. the same on each succeeding page until the text is less than a full page.
I would like to set the text frame at 7.5"x10" for pasting in text when the text will need unknown number of pages.

I have an IDW file that has a corresponding .IPT Everytime you import a .ipt onto a sheet, a text accompanies it. I want to write a macros to edit this text.
As an usual practise it gives "VIEW, DESCRIPTION and SCALE" .
Instead of VIEW , I want the code to pick something from the i-properties.
Eg. Instead of VIEW, it shopuld write the STOCK NUMBER from the iproperties of the part.
Is this possible ?

Revit 2011 text editing
How do I keep the formatting stable in the text editing. I have columns separated by tabs. Every time I click to edit the text Revit re-arranges the paragraph. I can't keep the format stable so the columns read correctly. I never had this problem with CAD.
I feel like a Beta tester right now trying to produce permit documents on a program that isn't finished yet.

I'm trying to automate an email we have to send upon job completion, I've started with the Curtis's ilogic from . I also found info HERE. I'm almost there, but I can't seem to find the correct format to edit the text size/Font/Bolding required. The email should look like:
CRITICAL ACTION: Replace old revisions on the shop floor & at vendor with the new revisions and destroy the old revisions.
WORK ORDER #: XXXXX/X Customer / Description
DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES:
This e-mail is to inform you that the drawing(s) listed below are approved:

LOW / No active quote(s) or current need. (To: )
MED / Need to quote or generate purchase order. (To: )
HIGH / There is a work order in Progress. Destroy all copies of obsolete drawings and replace with latest revision. (To: )
SALES / This is a sales drawing. (To: )
All drawing files referenced in this e-mail have been loaded onto network folder:
\ServerengineeringCOMMONParts Folder RELEASED PDFs
Current Ilogic:
modelName = IO.Path.GetFileName(ThisDrawing.ModelDocument.FullFileName)Dim oOApp Dim oOMailoOApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")oOMail = oOApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)Dim oWorkOrder As StringDim oCustomer As StringDim [code]......
I'm trying to get there by declaring Fontsize, then .Body.Fontsize = 16, but that isn't working. Any link to a page that would give me the correct format to change font size for this? I'd also like to get the table lines around the drawing/Part Number, but that isn't critical.

Users of Excel will know that you can ask that software to automatically change the color of text depending on its value.
I wonder is this possible in AutoCAD ( Issue release 13 )
The task I have to process is that I have a survey full of spot levels. It would be great of there was a lisp or script or some other device that would change the colour of the spot levels depending on the numerical value of the number.
E.g. - all values less than 100.00 - turn blue
all values equal to or greater than 100.00 - turn yellow

I'm having a weird problem with pasting text into Photoshop. It had been working fine until today. Here is how I usually do it (and it won't work now):
Copy text from email or web page into basic text editor. Make any changes necessary.
Copy text from text editor.
Paste into Photoshop text field.
Today when I try to paste the text into Photoshop nothing happens. It pastes fine into other programs such as Illustrator (and even this form.) And it will copy and paste from Illustrator to Photoshop (though it comes through styled which is not what I want.)
I've run my usual repair programs but that didn't clear up the problem. how to fix this?
Adobe Photoshop 5.5
Mac Pro w/OS X 10.6.8

Today Illustrator CS4 decided to start crashing on me when I try to paste text into the art board. It will also not allow me to type text into the artboard. Whenever I try to type, it just does all the tool shortcuts. I have alread tried deleting the preferences and that hasn't worked at all.

I have copied a bunch of text into a text frame in CorelDRAW X3. Now I want to give style to each of the headings in the text.
In Microsoft Word there is a "copy formatting" option, allowing me to copy font size, colour, style etc. from one text portion to other text portions in a snap.
Is the same possible with text in CorelDRAW?
CorelDRAW Graphic Suite X6.4 @ Windows 7/Windows 8 - 64 Bit, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012
