ParticipantNever had so many crashes as CS6. ID user since 1.0 and always praised it as such stable software. Not so CS6, regrettably. To the extent that I’ve scripted a preference copier app since I have to do it several times a day after crashes.
ParticipantHi Dwayne,
Good ideas all. Wish this forum made it easy to add a screenshot, but I see no option for that so I won’t show you my settings.I do see that all the words I entered are visible in the dictionary. I haven’t checked ‘case sensitive’ since I want the hyphenation to apply regardless of case.
I don’t know anything about ‘merge user dictionary into document’, but it sounds like something I wouldn’t want: I’m happy for the docs to refer to an outside, linked dictionary file. (Akin to linked graphics rather than embedded.)
I’ve opened InDesign numerous times since adding the words and it doesn’t seem to change.
However… I just noticed that my Hyphenation settings in the paragraphs are set to no break across columns. That may have accounted for the problem — will verify this tomorrow!
Cheers.
ParticipantThanks Dwayne, but I did add it beforehand.
ParticipantThanks for the reply, Rivkah. I’ll try your method next time!
ParticipantThe plot thickens: Now when I try it I get a second message after the first: ‘Internal error communicating with AI rulebase. Layout adjustment could not be performed.’
I guess this is unrelated to the first issue. I changed the margins on the master pages that I’m applying, and turned on Layout Adjustment when I did so.
It does apply the masters, but does not adjust the existing text frames to the new margins (ie the layout adjustment indeed fails).
November 23, 2012 at 12:13 pm in reply to: InDesign CS5: italics missing from imported Word document #63610ParticipantI just experienced this same problem. Resaving the Word doc to .doc (from .docx) solved the problem and the italics imported fine. I've had other issues with docx in the past in CS4; I really don't trust it now.
ParticipantOK… I need to change the posting title to “Perceived wasted screen space with panels: shall I rant and then come off looking like an idiot?” :)
Good point, Hopsa. As I posted this I was looking at a doc with no style groups, thus no icons occupying that 'wasted space'.
However, it would be cool that as long as no groups exist, the indent disappears to allow more of the style name to be visible…
ParticipantGood information, Anne-Marie. Thanks. What about Preflight profiles though?
ParticipantI tried same, and with a 'Change All' it does work, sort of. Actually it adds the same punctuation mark again on each replace. So where before you had 5.
(where '5' is the footnote reference marker)
you now have .5.
So another search is needed to weed out the added punctuation. Not very time-efficient this way.

Tested tagging those objects in Acrobat 9 on PC and it works. Not sure why 8 on Mac doesn't. Very odd.
October 12, 2010 at 7:27 pm in reply to: "Not taggable" frames when trying to tag for accessibility — why? #57342ParticipantHey David, thanks for replying.
I doubt that layoutzone would work with anchored objects, and there are many in this 500-page book. But if you think it's likely to work, I will give it a try.
I thought the solution, albeit tedious, would be to just tag each anchored object by hand in Acrobat (on the exported PDF of course) — but after selecting an illustration with the TouchUp Object tool, in the TouchUp Properties dialog all fields in the Tag tab are inaccessible even though the container itself is correctly tagged as 'Figure'. Any idea on that one?
Another option might be to script it. But I suspect that if the UI in general doesn't allow tagging the object, a script will not work either…. ?

The below page from Adobe states “You cannot tag a group of objects. To tag an item that's part of a group, use the Direct Selection tool to select the item.” But there's no mention of anchored objects.

I do feel like a voice in the wilderness here; any other campers out there?
