I don't think I'm explaining this clearly. I want to delete the first 3 characters of the name, but keep the rest of the name. So, if it says 9789999.tif, I want to rename it 9999.tif. Is there a script that can do this or a Mac OS way to do it?

What is Bridge? The batch rename feature in Photoshop doesn't allow me to remove part of a name and keep the rest of it as is.

I have a few hundred photos that are listed by ISBN13 numbers. They all start with 978. Is there a way to keep the name the same except remove the 978 at the beginning? I'm open to suggestions outside of Photoshop. Thanks

Quote a ridiculously high price for making the alterations and see if he'll agree to reducing the whole thing by 5% as a PDF. I had a very similar situation and this solution worked for me.

You can actually open PDFs in Illustrator and edit some things, but typically it breaks the document into weird little pieces and it's a pain to deal with. In the long run, if you plan to edit it on a regular basis, you'll be better off recreating the page from scratch, as JM said.

I would remove the head from the table and make it a textbox above the table. Then just go to "Object" in the menu and select 'corner effects'.

Y'know, everyone uses Indesign differently. It can't do everything. Maybe you're using the wrong software, maybe Word or Framemaker would be a better choice. Indesign is for design (see, it's right there in the name). It sounds like your project is all word processing.

Hey, you're right. It might be a bug. It seems to only understand wild cards in the find field, but not the change field. Jeez, and I was always so impressed with their find/change features compared to Quark's.

I would make the header and first row a separate text box and put it on a master. Then just flow your table directly under it so it looks like it's part of the table.

If you go to the help menu, there is an item called "keyboard shortcuts." I'd look thru those and write down the ones that are useful to you.

I have been forced to work with a client's printer that is also lazy and wants me to do their job. It was a lot of extra work for me and people on this forum told me it really is the printer's job, not mine. So, I finally told them "sorry, I'm having trouble doing that, and since it's your job...

What kind of PDF are you saving it as? Try ebook or screen. 26 pages of graphics is probably going to give you a big file. The idea of a portfolio is to show your best work, not everything you ever did. I'd say give them a teaser - maybe 5 pieces. THen say you'd be happy to show them more in...

I discovered that if I turn off text wrap on the image, nudge or move the text box, then go back to the image and turn text wrap back on, it will then work. Sounds like a bug to me.

I have various images with text wrap on. Then I rearrange the pages and the text wrap stops working. It still says I have text wrap on, but it's no longer working. The text is now flowing behind the image. Why? How do I fix this? I've tried turning text wrap off and back on. I also turned it...

I did a very convoluted data merge once. I basically did the data merge in Word/Excel and saved as file instead of printing - it only contained the names & addresses. Then I designed my pretty letter on a master page in ID and included a text box for the merge text. Then I imported the text...

and here's how to print 2 on a page: set up the page size to the size of one ticket, then when you go to print, select the print 2-up from the layout screen.

Are you saving the files as tiffs? I've done this more than I care to admit. I create a transparent file and then forget to check the box in the tiff dialog box that says to keep transparency.

Select everything in that area and make sure there isn't some invisible object with a text wrap.

Yeah, they're stupid. The printer insists that I send separated files. Last month I sent a Pantone plate and didn't convert it to black, I left it in green, and they made me convert it and resend. I really don't get it. They have direct to plate press and a pre-press/graphics person on staff...

The virtual printer is only for OS 9 - even on Adobe's site. Do I need to upgrade to 7 to be able to separate PDFs without going through Distiller (which is also only for OS 9)?
