I don't know how to properly specify this question, but basically I would like to format a document like specified here : http://etd.lib.hku.hk/thesis-form/Theses%20Binding%20specification(ed%20January%202018)c.pdf
It's on the 3rd page of the PDF document. So I need to input a line at the exact distance from the top border, while another line occurs at some exact distance from the bottom.
Does MS Word give the flexibility to do this?
Thanks!
Someone points out this question is off-topic for this forum but just in case someone is here anyway: use multiple text boxes can be the solution.
A user can adjust a text box's relative position on a page and thus achieve the formatting needed.

I am trying to setup a style based on bootstrap3.
Basically I want to try and reduce the size of the input elements which I have done, getting a decent proportion of 'box' vs 'text'.
However if I use the same font-size in a select box with the same size then I get a situation where the text is masked along the bottom edge...
I think there is a tiny bit more margin at the top of the select box, but for the life of me I cant find where that is set in BootStrap to change it (if at all).
I think all I need to do is move the text in the 'select' element up by a couple of pixels and it will align with those bits of text in standard text boxes....
Can anyone point me in the right direct please?
Found the associated CSS in the bootstrap, with a bit of trial and error....
Mainly in the 'form-control' section.
but now also using Bootstrap 4, with a couple of additional styles.
use Microsoft Word to edit an equation with underbrace. The line is as follows:
\underbrace(ab+cdf-edf=9dc/ereat+asdfdgg-asfeefe-eafdgahty+atataeaattrat)
The problem is the symbol for underbrace is very flat, looking like a line with the downward pointing part too small to see. Is there a way to make it larger (e.g., is there a way to stretch the underbrace VERTICALLY)? The size of underbrace is set automatically in Latex and looks fine. But in Microsoft Word, the default just does not look especially when you have a long equation. I am not sure if there is a setting allowing you to change it. Many thanks! Gene
Is there a way to set a custom word spacing in CoreText?
I have looked around the paragraph properties where I would have expected to see this but found nothing.
I don't have deep experience in this but AFAIK you cannot adjust the space between words. So my list of possible solutions would be:
Adjust the kern value, however this will also adjust the space between letter which may not be what you want.
Add extra spaces. Crude, but you can increase the space between words by replace a single space with two.
(Really advanced) start adjusting individual glyphs. The best example I have found for doing is here: http://invasivecode.tumblr.com/core-text about 2/3rds down the author shows how to access the individual glyphs and adjust their settings.
I have a very simple OCR app based on Tesseract. After the recognition
step, I also provide a user verification step that allows correction
in case OCR is wrong. To improve the user interface, I plan to draw a
rectangle on top of the OCR-ed character on the original input image,
and put it side by side with the OCR output. To get to that, I need
the coordinate of the recognized characters.
I tried something like this but it seems to give me gibberish:
ETEXT_DESC output;
tess->Recognize(&output);
text = tess->GetUTF8Text();
Now if I access output->count, it gives me some value above 10,000,
which is obviously wrong because the whole image only has 20 or so characters.
Am I on the right track? Can I have some direction please?
Maybe it's helpful to get the coordinates of the boxes.
Try the executable of tesseract. Use the command
"tesseract.exe [image] [output] makebox"
Afterall you get the coordinates of each character, one per row. Then you are able to compare.
The tesseract executable has an option hocr to output recognized characters and their coordiantes in html format. To get this programmatically, the FAQ says to refer to baseapi.h.
Below is the user interface I have created to simulate LDPC coding and decoding
The code sequence is decoded iteratively by passing values between the left and right nodes through the connections.
The first thing it would be good to add in order to improve visualization is to add arrows to the connections in the direction of passing values. The alternative is to draw a bigger arrow at the top of the connection showing the direction.
Another thing I would like to do is displaying the current mathematical operation below the connection (in this example c * H'). What I don't know how to do is displaying special characters and mathematical symbols and other kinds of text such as subscript and superscript in the figure (for example sum sign and subscript "T" instead of sign ="'" to indicate transposed matrix).
I would be very thankful if anyone could point to any useful resources for the questions above or show the solution.
Thank you.
To add arrows, you can either use the built-in QUIVER, or, for more options, ARROW from the file exchange. Both of these have to be plotted into axes, so if you want a big arrow on the top, you have to create an additional set of axes above the main axes.
As far as I know, you cannot use TeX or LaTeX symbols in text uicontrols. However, you can use them in axes labels. Thus, I suggest that you add an XLabel to the axes, for example
xlabel('\sigma c*H_T')
or (note the $-signs required for LaTeX)
xlabel('$\sum c*H_T$','interpreter','latex')
EDIT
I hadn't mentioned the use of text (as suggested by #gnovice and #YYC) because I thought it wasn't possible to place text outside of the axes. It turns out that I was wrong. text(0.5,-0.2,'\Sigma etc.') should work fine as well. I guess the only advantage of using 'xlabel' would be that you can easily add and position the axes label during GUI creation.
In regards to the 1st question, annotation (http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/techdoc/ref/annotation.html) might be an alternative solution.
In regards to the 2nd question, try text property in Matlab Help.
Search "Character Sequence" for the special characters; search "Specifying Subscript and Superscript Characters" for the subscript and superscript.
For drawing the arrow, I would go Jonas' suggestion arrow.m by Erik Johnson on the MathWorks File Exchange. It's the easiest way I've found to create arrows in figures.
For creating text with symbols, you can use the function TEXT. It lets you place text at a given point in an axes, and you can use the 'tex' (default) or 'latex' options for the 'Interpreter' property to get access to different symbols. For example, this places the text you want at the point (0,0) using 'latex' as the interpreter:
hText = text(0,0,'$\sum c*H_T$','Interpreter','latex');
The variable hText is a handle to the text object created, which you can then use with the SET command to change the properties of the object (string, position, etc.).
