Can you save print settings with a PDF?

I have an 8.5"x14" PDF. Is there anyway to save default print settings with this PDF so if a user opens it on their machine it defaults to printing to 8.5"x14" paper? Right now it always defaults to the standard 8.5"x11". I'm not sure this can be done because it seems like more of a specific users machine thing. I don't think you can save print settings with a PDF can you?
Thanks!

The "auto-formatting" of a hardcopy print format is generally the realm of the output device, in this case the printer. Printer software gereally includes an auto-format feature that selects the proper bin. For those who only have a "letter" tray, it usually asks to feed the right format manually, or switch trays. This is not a PDF feature but an output device feature.
Hope this helps.

Can PSE9 save print settings?

My company manufactures jigsaw puzzles and uses PSE9 with large-format Epson Stylus Pro printers in a 64bit windows 7 environment to print the puzzle images on professional photo paper. All of our prints (besides utility tests) use roll paper and automatic cut.
The nature of our business requires us to print files periodically and it is very frustrating that we must go into the advanced printer settings for EVERY print to set the roll paper option, page orientation, and color management settings. Shouldn't this information be saved as part of the image file?
If I edit an image and print it, why do I have to reconfigure the print settings EACH time I open the image?
Is there a way that I can force PSE to remember this information?
Thank you so much.

Hi,
When you print a file, its settings are retained. When you print another file the previous settings will be retained and shown in the dialog.
Please let me know, in case this is not, what you are looking for or this is not working.
Thanks,

Can you save system settings scratch disks locations for each project?

When you begin a new project in FCE you need to set the System Settings Scratch Disks. Typically you would set a new folder for each project to keep all of your files for each project in one location for that project.
I have a couple of FCE projects going at the same time. I've set each project with a different system setting scratch disk location. But if I open a project which should have a unique scratch disk location folder that I've already set before for that project, it ignores the setting I set for that project and just shows the scratch disk setting for the last project opened instead. It does not appear to save or remember the unique setting for that project.
If you have multiple projects going at the same time, is there a way to save the systems settings scratch disk location for each project and have FCE remember that location for each project?

I turned off the Open Last Project on Application Launch in the User Preferences and it still does not remember the unique scratch disk settings for each project.
Since it is quite common to be working on multiple projects simultaneously, you would think that there would be a way in which to save the settings for each project to help keep all related files better organized.
Any other suggestions?

Can't open print settings with CS5 and Epson R1900

In Photoshop CS5, go to File > Print. In the Print dialogue window, click on Print Settings... and no response. The blue Print button in the lower right corner flashes when I click, but nothing else happens.
I've tried running Photoshop in 32-bit mode as well. Doesn't behave differently.
Running on a Mac Pro 2.26 GHz (most current generation).
12 GB RAM
OS 10.6.4
Printer is connected to Airport Extreme USB (most current generation).
Can successfully print with CS4; seems to be a new issue with CS5.
Hope I've included enough info to troubleshoot this problem.
Thanks for any help!
Brian,.

I've been trying to trouble shoot this problem since the beginning of September. I wasn't sure if it was a snow leopard issue, a Driver issue, or a CS5 issue. I guess it's CS5. I recently discovered the work around of asking Photoshop to manage the colors, opening the print settings, saving, then returning to printer managing colors but this just doesn't cut it in our graphics lab. We need the settings to be as straight forward as possible for our students.
Also, unrelated sort of, Photoshop remembers the settings from the previous print job. Which again doesn't work well in a lab/public environment. So if jimmy printed 20 copies of a file and set it to print colors as gray; Susie, the next in line, would have the same print settings for her file. This seems to only happen with photoshop. Not Preview, not safari, nor any other program.
We're seriously considering moving back to CS4.
...at least that had contact sheets.

How can you save a file with CS4 so that it can be opened with CS3?

I fave a file that I have sent someone, but they can't open it because they don't have CS4. How can I save a file, using CS4, so that the file can be opened with CS3?
Thanx

Can you save Export Settings?

Title says it all. I can't believe you wouldn't be able to, but I can't seem to find a way. Once I get that perfect setup, I don't want to lose it.
Thanks!

Nope. Only the "Most Recent" settings (those used last) are available. Once you switch to a different export option those become the most recent (removing the older settings).
On a Mac we use AppleScript to create export settings and can just drag and drop a .mov file onto the Droplet to export.
We also have a new app named Automator that can create workflows.
QuickTime for Windows is scriptable.

How can you maintain security settings with the pornographic sites are already on your computer and an 8 year old is using it. Please contact me and tell me ho

My 8 yr old granddaughter uses this computer and while I was looking for a way to get rid of yahoo after deciding to dump Firefox because it is constantly quiting I was in the registry and found Yahoo in an area that is filled with pornographic sites. Not knowing how to get rid of this site I deleted the entire section. Looking at your browser doesn't do anything to address this problem and I WILL NOT use a web browser that does not have some type of security for sites that I DON'T WANT MY 8 YR OLD GDAUGHTER LOOKING AT! So buck up and get it done to prevent this.

Can you not print pdf to iphoto anymore with OS X Lion?

Can you noit print pdf to iphoto anymore with OS X Lion?

From what I am able to determine, the functionality that I enjoyed before upgrading to Lion is no longer available. Previously, one could open a PDF using Preview, select Print and then "Send to iPhoto." This feature is not there anymore. That is a major disappointment as I used it quite regularly at the non-profit support serviceI volunteer at.

All the phone settings are save in the backup which is automatically created when you sync the phone.

Please clarify what you mean by "resetting" the phone. When you reset the phone, no data is deleted. Do you actually mean Restore the phone? See the User Guide, Appendix B for the correct terminology,

"Import SIM Contacts" under settings-so how can you save to SIM card?

Update took several hours and afterwards, contacts as well as internet bookmarks and map bookmarks are gone. However, the pictures under the camera icon remain. How is that? Are they on the SIM card? How come contacts didn't save to the SIM card? How can you save to the SIM card through itunes or the phone?
Bueller?...Bueller?...Bueller?

Apps you can re-download for free. SMS's are part of the iPhone backup, they would have to copy that folder to a thumb drive along with your photos, calendar & contact database. Your iPhone backup is located here:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Regarding your contacts & calendar, you'd have to first export them to the thumb drive, then copy to the proper location on the computer you intend to use. Same with your iphone backup & pics.

Repair permissions and restart your computer. If this does not work, zap the pram. You should now see your external hard drive.

Really need to be able to save back to the older versions, in order to output vector files on an older plotter. Running an older application of Mac sign from Softeam, can't get in touch with them. Total pain to upgrade, been dumbing down for too many years.

How can you save keynote slides as high resolution (300 dpi) images?

Apparently there is a way to save powerpoint slides as 300 dpi images, with some finagling, but not the mac version. Does anyone know how to do this in keynote? Or is there a relativley easy way to do it with free/cheap software? I can increase the dpi in photoshop, but it doesn't produce crisp images for obvious reasons.

how can you save keynote slides as high resolution (300 dpi)
to save individual images from each slide in Keynote;     file > export > images > TIFF (for optimum quality)
You are using the wrong terminology to describe creating an image file
- dpi ( meaning dots per inch ) is the measurement used in printing to create the number of print dots per inch that will be deposited on to physical media like paper or film   This is done in the printer settings box of the print driver and is dependant on how the individual printer can print..
ppi ( meaning pixels per inch ) is the measurement you need to use when creating the number of pixels in a digital image file. You establish image resolution in Keynote using the inspector;
Keynote > inspector > document > slide size
I can increase the dpi in photoshop, but it doesn't produce crisp images for obvious reasons.
You can resample images in editing applications such as Photoshop or Painter but what you are doing is adding non image information to the image to increase pixel count, this is called noise. As you state this is not the procedure to use in your situation.
