it seems that there is nothing to divide, no intersected paths are selected. If your image is a result of LiveTrace then you don't need to use Divide, you can just select and delete white and green shapes and create the colored background rectangle behind your drawing. Or you can just fill the white shapes by background color if you plane to transform composition as the whole.

check pls your View menu and Output > Separations Preview > Separations: it's just a viewing, your real colors are the same. But Overprint Preview mode shows you how your colors will look in CMYK publishing

the "fuzz" appears due to different color modes of gradient sliders and different ink using. The first slider is colorful and has CMYK mode, the second is Black in Grayscale. So the first thing is to adjust the modes. Then for the second slider create the "composite" black, adding some CMY colors Do you need the transparent fill at the edge or black one? If you need transparency, set the second slider opacity as 0

looks like the problem is with system/tablet interaction. Try to reset tablet Preferences (I'm not sure how it's named for your model, but it might be something like Tablet Settings Utilite). Maybe it make sense to remove and reinstall the driver (but not reinstall above the existing driver; remove and reinstall). Previously close Illustrator. You will see the results at the next start.

are you sure that Smart Guide mode is On? you could occasionally turn it off, for example when switched betweenPreview and Outline mode or made clipping mask.

I check it on CC 17 / Win 7, and Scale tool works without Bounding Box there. But you can check the scaling percentage And the tool below (Free transform) gives you Bounding Box and shows the scaling dimensions The same thing is on CC 18 / Win 7 and CC 18 / Win 10

check pls your Layer pane. It indicates that your black shape is a group. I think you made 1-2 extra steps by CtrlZ and undoned the removind of these circles. So repeat this step, make sure that your black shape is a path, and then Minus Front will work correctly.

Check your View menu, the Snapping list if you have some of these points turned on, it may cause such object's behaviour. Selected object (or point) snaps to the nearest pixel or gridline.

You can also use Outline button on Pathfinder pane. It divides all paths by all intersection points (on my sample I moved the short lines for better visibility, actually they stay at their original place). A result is a group, and you can ungroup it or work in Isolated Mode. But be careful, there are some nuances: 1. This tool divides ALL lines by ALL intersection points, so you will need to replace the broken main path by its original. 2. This tool sets the fills and strokes to Zero, so you will need to restore the attributes. But this is not a problem if you work with a copy of the original composition

Thanks Does this show the real shape of buttons? I would suggest subtracting the overlapping parts from lower buttons because the overlapping buttons really do not work.

there are some features in Eraser's work in Illustrator: 1. If you create the filled path (doesn't matter whether it has any stroke or not) Eraser makes the closed path. In this case, you will see the new shape and its endpoints will be connected by a straight line. 2. If you create the stroked path without fill, Eraser breaks the line and divide your pat into some parts. 3. If nothing is selected, Eraser will erase ALL the objects which are under a cursor. If something is selected, You will erase ONLY a selected object, even if something else is placed above it. So you can have unexpected connections and strange visible inaction.

looks like you made your buttons to become bigger in hover state. Well, try to decrease scaling, or use the color changing instead of the scale. If they overlap "slightly", then the task is just to define the precise scale settings.

do you use it on just one comp? the cause maybe if you start it on 2 comps (which is allowed) at the same time (which is NOT allowed) and yes, sometimes the connection between your CC App and your account breaks. Just log in to repair the situation.

Try to use Paragraph and Object styles instead of the table. If you need the outer border for all the content you can set it as Text Frame (Stroke) option in Object Style. And you can use the Paragraph Rule (Below) to divide the lines. You can create and use as many Par styles as needed (for Creator, Data, Blank row and for internal paragraphs in long Data module) May it be useful?

Looks like your system shows you a CMYK preview (like Proof Colors in Photoshop). Does it happen in other programs (Photoshop, Illustrator)? If yes, the problem might be with your monitor, not InDesign. Does RGB mode allow you to choose the NEW bright color? Could you give a screenshot of Colour Picker&

1. Instellingen synchroniseren met uw account. 2. Op de nieuwe machine te draaien CC en in te loggen op uw account. Om te beginnen met de installatie van InDesign. 3. Verwijderen van het oude systeem. Het programma kan worden geïnstalleerd op twee machines, maar tegelijkertijd kan slechts één, dus hou het op een laptop met weinig geheugen heeft geen zin.

do you need it for the printed forms? Then you can create an additional row with exact height and split it into 6 cells with needed stroke settings. Them your main cell will change its height as you need and the "comb" line will keep the same appearance in any situation.

well, then you can (if it's not too complex by its shape, colors, effects etc.) just copy?paste your logo from Illustrator to InDesign and use it as Clipping Path for your back pattern. But everything might be much easier. If you use .png file, it is shown with Typical Display (low-res) on your screen. Try to print it to check the actual look or just choose the hi-res display mode: View > Display Performance > Hi-Quality Display. I suggest your layout is really good but you can't see it because of the display mode. This mode defaults to decrease the system charge/

1 Check for extra carriage returns: Type > Show Hidden Characters 2 For each red-marked image define the path to its original file: Links Palette > Relink ( you can use the Relink button, looks like a little chain, at the bottom of Links palette). The error messages are not very important when you print the draft, but for final printing, you need to fix all errors otherwise missed images will have low quality

yes, I also think so. That was the very first idea, not the best. data Merge in this case is much more useful.

And how many cards do you want to create? You could use Data Merge with 2 records per page, then you can make just 1 template 8,5x11,5 with all needed fields and then create the 8,5x11 merged document. This might be easier than rack your brains with this complex thing
