Microsoft Word - MS Word : Characters lost in PDF conversion

Microsoft Word - MS Word : Characters lost in PDF conversion

MS Word : Characters lost in PDF conversion

Posted: 08 Mar 2013 03:15 AM PST

MS Word 2010.

I find that underscores are lost in some places in my document when I convert to PDF.

Well the underscores are not actually lost: If I copy the text from the PDF and paste it into Notepad I can see the characters are actually there.

It is pretty easy to reproduce:

Take a blank document and input these lines:

 

Here is an underscore _in some text

Here is an underscore _in some text

Here is an underscore _in some text

Here is no underscore

 

  1. Make sure the font is "Courier New" (size 11). Not sure if the size matters but it certainly matters that the font is "Courier New" if you want to reproduce.
  2. Make sure to color the background as I do. I use one of the "theme colors", called "Dark Blue, Text 2, Lighter 80%" but I do not think it has significance which background color you use.
  3. Make sure to use line spacing : single and line spacing "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style"
  4. Now try to export to PDF using Word's build-in feature for the purpose (i.e. Save As ...).


In the PDF it looks like this:




Here is an underscore  in some text

Here is an underscore  in some text

Here is an underscore _in some text

Here is no underscore




 What is that ?



Pls help.

Permanently change language in Template

Posted: 08 Mar 2013 12:59 AM PST

I am a naturalized American of British origin, and my system language is US English.  

I have a Word template TmplUK which is set to UK English which I use frequently.  

Sometimes I need a US English document, so I use TmplUK  and ctrl-a and select US English from the language tab at the bottom of the screen.  This seems to work fine. 

I realized I should make a clone of that template which is US English.  

I edited the TmplUK template and tried the above method and saved it as TmplUS.  I created a new document using the new template, pasted in some text, and it was correctly in US English.  Then I realized I had made a mistake and deleted all the text I had pasted.  The document reverted to UK English.

How do I set the base language of a template?

Word 2010 Creating TOC out of a multi-level list

Posted: 07 Mar 2013 08:59 PM PST

I have a 50 page word document that is one gigantic multi-level list (all the same list--goes down about 7 levels at it's deepest). I need to create a automated TOC from the list using the first 3 levels however I can't figure out how to do it because TOC's only seem to work off of the "heading" styles. I can't even apply a heading style on a list item because it removes it from the list when it applies the style. Is there any way to create a TOC out of a multi-level list automatically? Maybe a macro can convert it to something word can read but I still can't think of how to do it since the heading styles remove the list item when applied. Anyone have an idea on how to do this?


Thanks for your time.

How to wrap text inside a custom shape to the borders of that custom shape, not a generic square "text box"?

Posted: 07 Mar 2013 12:20 PM PST

Hi All - a simple (I hope) question. I've drawn a "custom" shape, and added text to this shape. However, it is wrapping according to a "square" text box, not the lines that form my custom shape. How can I make the text wrap according to the shape I have drawn? Currently the text is going outside the lines I've drawn. I couldn't figure out how to upload a picture - so I've tried to creat an example of my issue below below:

 

 

This is what it currently looks like (imagine the dashes/vertical lines are the outline of my shape, and the "x"s are my text) 

 

------------------------------------------------------------

This is what I want it to look like:

Checking OWA availability

Posted: 04 Aug 2004 04:50 PM PDT

OWA will authenticate but never serve the page. All IIS services appear up
but they hang upon restart so I assume a process is hung.

I guess if there was a utility that could login, pull a page, then logout,
this would do the trick, unless there is a better way.

OWA-IIS Settings Lost After Reboot

Posted: 02 Aug 2004 01:52 PM PDT

If you are changing the authentication setting, for the Exchange virtual
directory, in the IIS console, then the reason you are seeing it get
overwritten is because Active Directory is overwriting the IIS Metabase
with what it has for the authentication settings. In order for the back
slash (\) to not get overwritten, you must change the Exchange virtual
directory's authentication settings(& the public virtual directory's)
authentication settings through the Exchange System Manager console.

Org name -- Administrative Group -- <name of administrative group> --
Servers -- <server name> -- Protocols -- HTTP -- Exchange Virtual Server --
<properties of the Exchange directory> -- Access tab -- Authentication
button.

When you changed the authentication settings, in ESM, the changes are
written to Active Directory, which then overwrites what is in the IIS
Metabase.

I used that as a reference that we use with Office System 2003/SBS 2003. Thought it might help you.
We use now a mixture of Office 2003 and Red Hat as server, major pain is an understatment. Thats why were switching to SBS 2003.

Remove Office XP completely?

Posted: 20 Jun 2004 08:13 AM PDT

Thanks for the help. This utility did allow me to remove and then
reinstall Office XP and this time it did repair the problem areas.
However, recently-used-file lists and old non-existent Excel Macros were
still listed in Word and Excel. So although I fully uninstalled,
removed folders and all other files that seemed at all associated with
Office, then ran the utility, some files are apparently stored elsewhere
or some entries are left in the Registry.
I even installed Office on a new computer that had never had Office. I
then noted all the new files that were created that day and deleted them
during my uninstall.

For plain text files, Emacs (run under X11) suffices. Make sure your
distro vendor is not trimming away the i18n parts from its binary
packages.

For other programs, your mileage varies according to how well i18nized
those programs are. (e.g. gaim works very well. mozilla also
supports Chinese inputs, in addition to display. Learn about the
"LANG" env. var. Read 'man locale'.) You'll need to install 'xcin' to
type Chinese in these programs.

I remember OpenOffice.org did offer versions in a wide variety of
languages, including BOTH traditional and simplified Chinese.

How to install Linksys PCMPC100 EtherFast in Fedora?

The one cardctl ident shows as "EtherFast 10/100 PC Card (PCMPC100 V2)"
was not even listed in my /etc/pcmcia/config, but sort of works if added
to use pcnet_cs. However, it is erratic at 100baseT speeds (even with
Windows drivers) and works much better forced back to 10baseT (full duplex
works).

The one cardctl ident show as "EtherFast 10/100 PC Card (PCMPC100 V3)"
and label shows as Ver:C4 works with axnet_cs (seems to be artificially
throttled internally to work smoother at 100baseT speeds).

Unless you have an old laptop that cannot accept cardbus cards, a cardbus
pc card (32-bit) would work much better than a 16-bit pc card.

Ertan,

With skill, I meant more competences such as "can program with Visual Basic"
or "Sign language" than efficiency.

MS Project Server can manage resources competences, but not their
efficiency.

Some other planning softwares allow to say that if an experimented worker
can do a task within 1 day, a newbie worker would need 1,4 days for ex. MS
Project doesn't do that.

I agree with BJ; I can't envision what a display of links in summary

Does project flag?

Posted: 01 Jun 2004 09:35 AM PDT

Piers,

Server will bring with it a lot of implied expectations about how your
PM's and the resources will work together and collaborate using the
product. Probably best if you look at the extensive material Microsoft
publishes about the product as a first step (www.microsoft.com/project)
to see if it fits your organsation currently ... and more importantly,
how you want it to be.

To decide if it's worth it, of course, depends on the costs vs.
benefits. Buying and installing the software will be relatively
inexpensive and easy. Deciding how to configure and then working with
the people will be the part that takes time.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

Working Offline

Posted: 01 Jun 2004 08:13 AM PDT

Scott:

This feature is bullet proof. I can assure you that it works for everyone
and that you're simply making a mis-step.

After taking your project offline:

Log into your laptop using your standard logon to the domain, this should
work whether you're connected or not as Windows caches this information so
you can log into your correct profile whether or not you're connected to the
network. If you logon as another user, you won't be able to access your
offline project.

Next, start Project. If it launches directly to Project 1, then you need to
do the following:

1) Select Tools > Enterprise Options > Microsoft Office Project Server
Accounts
2) In the Project Server Accounts dialog, select the radio button for
Manually control connection state
3) Click OK and exit out of Project

Now start Project again. This time you should see the Project Server
Accounts Dialog just as you do when you're online, connected and want to
connect to Project Server

Select the Project Server account that you used to take the proect offline
and click the work offline button

Now, click File > Open - You should now see the open from Microsoft Office
Project Server dialog as if you're about to open a project from the server,
however the only project or projects that appear are the ones you took
offline.

Have all your Project Managers set their copies of Project to manually
control the connection state and teach them the work offline procedure
outlined here.

Please use microsoft.public.project.server for further questions about
Project Server.

Assigning priorities in 2000

Posted: 01 Jun 2004 08:10 AM PDT

Haha!
98 only has 10 levels, so when you save a file as Project 98 you lose the
finer granularity.
When staying in the 2000 environment, you can use all numbers between 0 and
1000 and they will stay like that.

Word 2010 - How to delete multiple hyperlinked text?

Posted: 06 Mar 2013 10:22 PM PST

Hi,

 I have searched around and haven't been able to find a macro that deletes multiple hyperlinks while also deleting text. The macros I've seen delete the hyperlinks, but retain the text. Any help is appreciated.

Why isn't Word 2013 opening?

Posted: 06 Mar 2013 04:50 PM PST

It just won't open. (To be really specific) I double click on it, the mouse turns into that loading thing (that looks like a hourglass) then the loading thing disappears and nothing opens. 
-P.S. Reply fast please I really need to use word to finish a project due tomorrow.
(Its not like its crashing, its just not loading)

Attach files using Word and Mail app

Posted: 06 Mar 2013 03:47 PM PST

For Office 2013 there is the option to share a file via email as an attachment.  However it only uses Outlook, is there a way to change this so that Office will recognize the Mail app in Windows 8 as the email client?

How do I change the default date format in Word 2010 from US to UK (DD/MM/YYYY) for use with the Bibliography and other referencing tools?

Posted: 06 Mar 2013 03:05 PM PST

Basically my problem is simple but difficult to solve. My date settings under regional settings in Windows 7 are correct and set to English UK format (DD/MM/YYYY) and so are the settings in Word 2010. When I add a citation and input the full date, then create a Bibliography and view the bibliography at the bottom of my document, the dates all appear in US format (MM/DD/YYYY) which is not acceptable for my essay assignments. At the moment all I do is wait until I've added absolutely all of my citations, click update Bibliography, convert to static text and then manually change all of the dates around. But that's time consuming and ultimately incredibly annoying if I found I've missed a reference and have to do it all over again. Any ideas? Much appreciated :)

Applying Heading Styles to Words and not Whole paragraphs.

Posted: 06 Mar 2013 02:03 PM PST

New to Styles and may be on the cusp of mastery or insanity.  Have gone over the guidance for creating list and heading styles found at http://www.shaunakelly.com/word/numbering/numbering20072010.html more times than I want to admit and have reviewed all the Word 2007 styles-related movies at Lynda.com (several times for each of them, listening VERY carefully) and still cannot figure out how to apply a heading to a few words in numbered paragraph (the words I want to wind up in the TOC) and not the entire paragraph.  I've even deleted all formatting and redid my list style (about a gazillion times) and re-checked each one of 6 Heading styles - also many times over.  Per Shauna Kelly's guidance each of my multilevel levels are attached to the appropriate Heading - as Level 1 to Heading 1, Level 2 to Heading 2, etc. and Heading 1 is based on "no style" with Heading 2 based on Heading 1, Heading 3 on Heading 2, etc. It's driving me bonkers (and at this point it's a short drive.) Would really appreciate some help with this.  John

SHORT CUT KEYS

Posted: 06 Mar 2013 07:05 AM PST

Is it possible to turn off/disable some shortcut keys in Word 2010 but leave others in place.  The key that I would like to disable is Control Y. 

I am using Office 2010 Window 7 - 32 bit operating system.

What is the field code associated to the quick part "Publish Date"?

Posted: 06 Mar 2013 06:56 AM PST

I am formating a document in Word 2010 that uses the Quick Part -> Document Property -> Publish Date. My question is, how can I refer this property in other parts of the document? The option { DOCPROPERTY "Publish Date"} does not seem to work.

Thank you for your answers

cursor jumping around using type cover

Posted: 06 Mar 2013 06:24 AM PST

I'll be typing away on a Word document, only to find that in the middle of typing, my cursor jumped up a couple of lines and I'm now inserting text into the middle of an earlier sentence or paragraph.  Is anyone else seeing this?  Is it a problem with my Touch keyboard, or is it something I am doing?  Thanks for any assistance.  (32 GB Surface RT with Touch cover, Office RT Preview)

I have a document that I need to track moves on.

In the settings under Track Change Options the entire section of Move is half font and unavailable for me to change from green to by author.

This is not the only document this happens on. It has been happening for several days now. Just haven't needed it until now.
