Q How do I arrange this formula in InDesign?
A can use InDesignCS's MathMagic plugin to arrange this formula, in InDesign "new formula" -> automatically load MathMagic to edit the formula -> click "update" under the file menu -> close MathMagic back to InDesigh.
Q After opening the QUARK file with NIDESIGN for formatting, the image cannot be output to the PDF. What is the problem?
A is very simple, it can be solved by un-embedding it and then re-inserting it.
Q What are the compression software under Apple?
A more common is STUFF EXPANDER, the decompression of this software is free, but compression is a fee. The MAC OS itself can archive files in ZIP format, but it is basically uncompressed (right-click menu "archive" option, single-button mouse, press OPTION + click - OS X starts to support double-button mouse). RAR, but currently only the character interface, but the speed is much faster than in WIN, it is worth using.
Q Apple's hardware maintenance is the same as PC?
A is no different, it is more convenient. To get rid of a good habit, first look at the instructions.
How to accurately specify the length and width of a cell in Q DINDESIGN? I want to specify the size of a frame, 8 cm wide and 9 cm high, which is divided into 6 rows and 4 columns. Usually, instead of first defining the size of the table, you first define the size of the frame. Form the form according to the framework. In this size frame, I have to put 6 rows and 4 columns, that is, each grid is 2 × 1. 5CM. Of course this is an integer and it is easier. However, when a frame is 43×21 CM, when it is evenly divided into 17 rows and 6 columns, it is not possible to accurately specify the length and width of the cell.
A first draw a text box (such as 43 × 21CM), create a new table in the box (such as 17 rows and 6 columns), use the mouse to pull the right line to 21CM, pull the bottom line to 43CM; select the table, right click, line Average/column equalization. In fact, the newly created form is directly divided into columns.
Q has a file: 47 × 120 (MM) size, now designed in Illustrtor, and then typeset in the pagemaker to the last non-forest, I want to ask: this size 47 × 120 when creating a new file in illustrtou Is it set to a size of 47×120? Still add 3 cm of bleeding, which is: 53 × 126. Is it necessary to add 3 cm of bleeding on one side of the design?
A 1. Newly built 47×120 when creating a new file in illustrtou
2. The bleeding thing is slightly outside the range of 47×120, generally more than 3mm
3. Draw a large transparent square box in Ai and place it in the middle of the page. This box must hold everything.
4. If there is no bleeding in each Ai, this transparent square frame is recommended 47×120
5. If a certain Ai has a large amount of bleeding, it is recommended to use this as the basis for measuring the transparent square frame. Each Ai is added with a box of equal position, and the frame is assumed to be 60×135. Coexistence as EPS
6.Pagemaker set single page mode, a few pages of Ai will open a few pages of PM, the layout size is still 47×120
7. Place the EPS and place it in the middle. All EPS sizes should be 60×135, and there are still 6.5mm and 7.5mm bleeding around.
Q I always think that filling grayscale images in INDESIGN is the same as PM and FreeHand. I can fill the colors at will. I don't know if it is my INDESIGN setting (I only added CJK, I have not made any setting changes) or INDESIGN filled gray. This is the effect. What is it like?
A I don't know why you want to do this kind of filling. If you want to achieve an effect, you can continue to read it. If you want to become monochrome printing, huh, that's another matter. I generally import an image, whether it's color or black and white. Press ALT to copy one. Use positiontool to select the picture of the picture, and notice that the color of the border has changed. After deleting the image in the top border, you can fill in any color. As for copying, you need to get a border of the same size as the original image. After alignment, use HUE transparent to get the following results. This is more flexible, you can change the fill color above at any time. There are many more advanced uses in INDESIGN, and imagination is the most important.
Q Why can't I watch a web page with a video under Apple?
A First of all, you should ensure that your video playback software is complete. For example, DIVX, WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER, and REAL ONE all have a MAC version. Secondly, because the browser SAFARI under MAC does not support DHTML, and IE 4MAC has too many problems (it seems to stop developing new versions), many video-on-demand web pages using DHTML are very inconvenient to use MAC. There is currently no easy to use streaming media agent download software under MAC. Incidentally, the SAFARI 1.2 version does not support REALONE very well. Web pages with RM or RMVB format videos are usually not viewable.
Q Why are the U disk and mobile hard disk that the customer brought from sometimes not recognized on Apple?
A. In the case of using U disk and mobile hard disk under Apple, pay attention to several aspects:
1. the MAC operating system does not support FAT 16, and some U disk is FAT 16 format by default, you need to re-format with FAT 32.
2. like the above, does not support NTFS, if someone uses the NTFS format U disk in 2K and XP, it also needs to be FAT 32.
3. formatted in Apple, must not use Apple's special file format, otherwise the PC does not recognize.
4. G4 original only USB 1.0 interface, interface box with USB 2.0 can only be recognized as 1.0, working in 1.0 compatibility mode, and the speed is slower than PC. So it is best to use the IEEE 1394 interface.
5. beware! Sometimes unrecognized partitions, MAC OS X will prompt you to "initialize"! ! Don't just click "OK", don't know how to read the dictionary and make a decision, otherwise don't regret it!
Q Do the fonts in the EPS file in the PAGEMAKER file have to be transferred? Is there a way to not turn? The pictures in the book at hand are all EPS files, and the publisher has not yet drafted the manuscript. It is estimated that there will be a lot of changes in the time, so I don’t want to transfer the valuable fonts to the path. It will be very troublesome to change at the time. I don’t know if there is any Turn the path but it does not affect the method of post work. In fact, after setting the font in each EPS, it can display the font, but the running image appears (I use PAGEMAKER and INDESIGN to output the PDF file, the font is mainly Founder and Hanyi). I don't know how to solve it. I also tried a way to copy the text in each EPS file to a transfer path, keep a copy of the text in the EPS file and hide it, but then open the hidden text and then appear again. .
A No matter how you change it, there is no other way than deleting it, because the hidden object is also an object, but it is not displayed. Except that EPS is the client's file, it will not be done when you do things yourself. In the typesetting software, in addition to the font effect, there is no such problem. However, I have an idea, EPS is opened with AI software, then copied, pasted in IDESIGN, except for the special effects in AI can not be displayed in INDESIGN, everything else is normal.
Q Use the home page to automatically page the page, because I use a double-sided page, so the first page is a single page, but my first page does not use the page number, how to cancel?
A It's not clear what version of InDesign you are using. This question is actually very simple for INDESIGNCS, which is also the excellence of INDESIGNCS. To start the page number from the second page, you can set the start page number to "2" in the automatic page number setting.
Q InDesign's question about vertical and vertical text, like the situation in the picture, one or two numbers can be solved. How to do a lot of such files? After all, no one is willing to hold this head with his head.
A Set the automatic vertical and horizontal horizontal in the paragraph adjustment, then put the text vertically or the existing text horizontally. The setting in the figure is such that the number is not more than 2 digits. If you change this setting, more or less will create new problems. For example, the ellipsis and the dash are also traversed.
Q What is the difference between a graphics card under Apple and a PC?
A display card under Apple also uses AGP interface, but it is basically reverse design (Apple's motherboard is also reverse designed, which can reduce the length of the connection), and the power supply has a special design. In particular, the new model of G4 and G5, because the standard MAC LCD is powered by the leading display connector, and can be turned off by turning on the display inductive power switch, it is impossible to use the PC card to modify the plug in the MAC. :
1, You can't get a dedicated interface, and you won't be able to solder it.
2, even if you do not need a dedicated interface, connect to the general display, that transformation is also a huge project, because said before, the graphics card on the MAC is specifically "reverse" design.
3, change the latest graphics card, MAC OS X does not support is also a lot of effort. Even with support, the MAC display driver usually has poor OPENGL performance and does not support DX9.
Q eMAC 1G, 10.3 system, sometimes I can't recognize the hard disk after rebooting, gray screen, after starting with a random CD, even the "open disk tool" can not see the hard disk, sometimes hold down the mouse when restarting The optical drive is ejected, and there is no CD in the optical drive. It can enter the system normally. Very strange, now I have been unable to get in, urgent.
A Repair the disk directory with Norton Doctor.
Q Where is the difference between UPTO and THROUGH in the paragraph formatting of InDesign?
A nested style refers to nesting character styles in paragraph styles. How can I create character styles first, and it is best to create two different styles to see the effect. The terminator in a nested style is not a general end symbol, but rather a symbol that you specify in the column to end the application of the style and start applying the next style. For example, if you specify a terminator for the first style as a tab, then in the text to which the nested style is applied, all text will be applied to each style, and when the tab is encountered, the second will be applied. style. Through means that the style includes the terminator when it is applied, and upto means that the terminator is not included, that is, the terminator does not apply the style. For example, if you select through for the first sample, the first style will include the tab character, and the upto will not include the tab character. Then, the tab character can only apply the second style.
Q When I use ill8.0 to produce a film, I often encounter an EPS file placed in an AI file. Because there is an unnecessary part in the EPS, the AI file is automatically created by the outside of the fixed document. The size of the image in the file is taken out, including those hidden in the EPS file, and the film that often causes the film to be printed on a corner is not printed on the paper. Do you have to modify the inserted EPS first? Sometimes things are done, there are a lot of EPS files inside, and it is very troublesome to change. Is there a good way to solve this problem?
A Circle the part to be output with a wireframe before outputting, and then use the Crop Are/Make function of the Object menu to make the cropping area. Thus, at the time of output, the default size of the AI is the area circled by Crop Are.
