Is there any way to find strikethrough words in a ppt slide using interop, in c#? I am able to find out the format(Bold, Italic,Underlined) of a word but not able to identify strikethrough words.
The .TextRange2.Font.Strikethrough property of the text will be True if the text is formatted as StrikeThrough

I designed a label in a Zebra Label Designer and outputed the zpl code to a file. All my text is encoded in a ^GFA command which is not useable to me because I want to be able to replace text in the label progromatically. How do I design my labels so that the text is not encoded in the program code?
Make sure you use printer-resident fonts when you add a text field in ZebraDesigner. The printer-resident font names listed in the dropdown box of ZebraDesigner typically start with the word Zebra.
Is there any way to search text based on its colour and other attributes such as font size, style, etc in MS Word, other readers and editors.
Also the text can vary in its size, style, etc. Those are not included in the sample image. Plz help out solve this problem in Word atleast.
Using FPDF and FPDI library, is it possible to print barcode without human readable text? I am using Code39 library but I cannot find anywhere to disable the text.
If you set the color to the background color the text won't show. That is the only solution I have found.
$pdf->SetTextColor(255, 255, 255);//white text
I have a textbox control inside of a software app which has some text in it. That software is using a custom font which doesn't exist anywhere else and is just specific to this program. I don't have it's source or access to it's creators. Now I want to copy that text inside of a notepad or MS word but when I do the text is no more readable unless I change the font of word processor to the font that the software is using (the font that text is written with). So I want the text to be readable anywhere and not to depend on a specific font. So is it possible?
I'm a c# programmer. Here is an example of unreadable text:
ý¶† ±øõœ ý¶† –ý¾‡¨ ÿ†°†¬ ñð‡ì úÞ±¶ Ä쇤 ½±”
à¥ì ±øõœ þ·ñœŒ Ý稆Œ ô±º±” (.ì)
[þü‡íý‘†õø]
ý¶†
[þ¶ñùì ïõéÎ]
±øõœ ý¶† ‡º±”
[þíýº]
ý¶†
[úð‡ýì‡Î —‡¤çȾ†] ÿ¬.¹†.ë† °©ì ÿû¬‡ì ²† þÎõð.ÿ¬.¹†.ë†"
The interesting thing is that it's showing up like this in almost all the fonts except the one that text is originally written with. By the way the text is in Arabic and all of fonts that I tested the text with are supporting Arabic chars.
Now if I type some text that consist of English and Arabic in that font then change the font of notepad to some other font it's looks OK and works normal! So the problem only appears when the text is pasted into the word processor.
EDIT: I think I found the problem! The custom font is a raster font (bitmap font) which has a .fon extension and in the following thread someone wanted to convert the bitmap font to ttf since he was having a problem in printing the documents. I want to copy and paste, so maybe I have to convert the font ?
The discussion:
how to convert a bitmap font .fon into a truetype font ttf
Any kind of help is really appreciated.
thank you.

If I had seen this question on superuser.com my answer would have been:
You can change the font of text from font A to Arial.
For example in Microsoft Word
Open the Replace dialog box (Edit >> Replace or Ctrl + H)
Make sure no text is specified in the Find what or Replace with boxes
Click in the Find what box, then click Format (If you don’t see the Format button, click More to expand the search options)
Select Font from the pop up list
In the Find Font dialog box, select the text formatting options you would like to replace
Click OK
Click in the Replace with box
Click Format
Select Font from the pop up list
In the Replace Font dialog box, select the new text formatting options you would like to apply
Click OK
Click Replace all
Click OK
Click Close
(from http://wordprocessing.about.com/cs/quicktips/qt/fontreplace.htm)
As an aside: If the document uses styles, it is actually much easier to change the font. For this reason I try to always use styles and never directly apply fonts to text.
If you are not referring to Word documents, please amend your question to say exactly what software was used to create the text - or exactly what file-format the text is stored in.
Since you asked on stackoverflow.com I slowly deduced you may be writing a program in some unspecified programming language. I suggest you edit your question and specify what programming language you are using and give some example code to illustrate the problem.
For example, in Java you might do something like
JLabel label = new JLabel("hello world");
label.setFont(new Font("Arial", Font.PLAIN, 12));
It sounds very much as though the author of the original program has invented their own character encoding and provided a font to go with it. Maybe the development tools were restricted to ANSI text and the developers came up with this extreme solution.
Test out the hypothesis by writing some English text in the custom
font and see if Arabic
characters appear.
If this is so then you will have to work out what the encoding is and translate the strings character by character.
I cannot figure out how to do this.
All I want to do is to select some text and then change the color of that text to red, say. I've lost 20 minutes of my life trying to do this.
Typing 'font color' into help search brings up a reference to lesson 2, which doesn't even contain the word font or color. (Is TextWrangler low quality?)
How do I do this?
Many thanks!
TextWrangler is a text editor, not a word processor. You can pick any font or color you like the display the text for a given file, but you can't format different parts of the same file differently - it's just plain text after all.
