Surrounding text with text
I was wondering if it was possible to surround a text body with text
like so:
+--------------+
|ABCDEFGHIJKLM |
|H N|
|A Main Body O|
|L Text goes P|
|B here Q|
|-=+_ZYXWVUTSR |
| |
| |
| |
| |
+--------------+
This seems far-fetched, but just curious. I suppose that I could just
move stuff around by hand in the GIMP later on, but there's probably a
{better,more {extensible,clean}} way of doing it from (La)TeX.

Well, it's been a while, but I finally finished it. It's a little job
I was doing for an upcoming wedding. At any rate, I used pstricks to
make the text go along a path, along with a couple of hacks for sizing
(from graphicx) and kerning along the line (from soul). Here's the
code (don't laugh):

What is "text + text" supposed to do right now? It doesn't seem very useful to me. What about making "text + text" as an equivalent for "text || text"?

Fit text in a Text Box
Hello friends, I have a curious doubt, imagine I have a text box, and inside, a text that I dont know the lenght. Depending on the box's size and letter's size, I can fit the box. But the box's size is fixed, so I just can modify the size's letter. How can I be right with letter's size, if I dont know the lenght of string (text)? Is there any simple function for this case? Thanks in advance, greetings. Pedro Moreno On 10-08-31 04:25 PM, pedro moreno wrote: > I have a curious doubt, imagine I have a text box, and inside, a text > that I dont know the lenght. Depe...

Text disappearing from text fields...
Hello, I'm currently working with a MySQL backend and is trying to use FileMaker 9's Web Form capabilities as a front end. From FileMaker Pro's interface, I have used the ODBC to connect my FileMaker database to my MySQL tables. The schema and existing data records loads into FileMaker without a problem. However, when I'm trying to insert text (VARCHAR and TEXT) data from FileMaker, it blanks out and ends up only inserting a blank into MySQL. Default values set on the MySQL side only take effect if I left that field blank on FileMaker when I create a new record. Default field...
