Creating one design for both A4 and Letter Sizes

Hi There!
I'm new to the forum. I've been tasked with creating individual catalogue pages for a global company. Some divisions in the US use 'Letter' and here in the UK we use 'A4'.
I was wondering if there's a way of creating a one page design - say in A4 - that when exported as PDF will print to both page sizes? I wondered if I could set the print settings in advance so the page automatically prints to fit page? Unfortunately haven't been able to find any advice on this.
Any other suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Hayley

The answer is that the same page can be printed, scaled, in both formats, but it won't be pretty if you do it that way. In CS6 you can create an Alternate Layout in the same document so that you have both page sizes and can adjust the layout to fit the differnt shapes, then choose which to output. You can use Linked Stories so that you only need to edit one and the other will update.

One RTPManager for both, receiving and transmitting

Can I use one RTPManager for both, receiving and transmitting media data?
I would create send stream and imlement appropriate update+ methods.
Will it work?

Ummm, you don't have to implement any methods if you don't want. The default RTPManager does it all for you. I think you may want to override some trigger functions, but...

It seems that you have used the AppleIDs to "Purchase" your devices, which marries the two for all time and eternity.

Creating InDesign files for both print and mobile output?

I am looking for a way to create files that can be multi-purpose for both print and mobile/online environments. I would like the output to be 2 different PDFs from one set of Indesign files. The problem I am encountering is that currently my files are full of hi-res and vector graphics, effects, and are generally created to be optimized for large-scale printings on offset or digital presses. I am trying to use the same files to generate files that are optimized for mobile and online presentation but finding that the number of vector graphics specifically is slowing page display down.
My initial reaction is that the solution would have to be dual-development. Multiple forms of 'master graphics' would have to be created and placed on multiple layers (one for print and one for mobile/online).
Hi-res files could be made lo-res in Acrobat or Pitstop, but vector imagery would have to be rasterized and I am not aware of a method to do that in either of those programs.
I have found some info on adobe.com leading me to think that maybe CS6 addresses some of this, but the majority of my work is being done in CS4 with only the bleeding edge being done in CS5.
Thanks in advance for any insight.

the output to be 2 different PDFs from one set of Indesign files.
You can accomplish this by saving each PDF using a different preset - High Quality Print for the high res, smallest file size for web
but vector imagery would have to be rasterized...
You should be trying to keep all vector work as vectors. This, in most cases, lowers the file size. There are a couple of exceptions to that like if the vectors are very complex (layered etc) and you are using bitmap effects like drop shadows. In general, rasterizing will increase the file size and lower the quality.
Is there any functional difference between the 2 PDFs? I am wondering why exporting using 2 different presets will not do the job efficiently enough. You could always save your linked images with a low res version - same file but make a copy 100dpi instead of 300dpi. This might help but InD normally downsamples the images anyway when exporting as smallest file size.
EDIT:// In Acrobat, you can save as "Reduced Size PDF" which strips out all the meta data etc and makes the PDF lighter and faster for web use. This would be a final, before publishing online step.

Need help for creating sharepoint sites for both internet and intranet users

We would like to know what is the best approach to create SharePoint sites for our customers(internet users) and internal employees(intranet users) on the same SharePoint server. Here is the scenario:
1) A customer posts a document from internet.
2) This triggers a approval workflow that can only be accessed and executed in the intranet environment. This approval process requires approval's possible modifications to the customer's document.
3) We would like the customer not to able to check the approval state and the modified document until the document is fully approved and finalized.
We are pondering if we need to create two sites, one site for customer and the other site is for internal approvers. Or one site is possible. It also looks like we need to somehow copy customer's original document to intranet site and triggers the workflow.
Any design ideas are helpful. Thank you advance!

Hi Jason,
Though it is perfectly possible to have both intranet and internet on the server, it is not a recommended practice. Having both on the same server would have multiple problems, instead me detailing it out, here is a forum thread on which Trevor had given
enough reasons -
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/9b550c33-6f5f-4cd9-8762-8ff389b747d9/sharepoint-2013-one-farm-to-host-intranet-extranet-internet?forum=sharepointadmin
If you have valid reason to go with single server, then you can also explore email enabled lists as one option and another one would be using custom sharepoint designer workflow.
you can also try using event receivers to send documents to intranet site from internet site, process everything and update the document in the internet site.
Hope this helps!

How to use form design for both online and Offline Scenrio!

Hi All,
I have created the forms using WebDynpro context with ZCI layout for Online scenario.
There are some fields which need to be prefilled and are read only.. Header fields.
There is no interface structures created seperately but the interface is constructed through webdynpro context.
Now that I have to use the same for offline scenario, I don't see layout in SFP of form. I can create a structure for Importing fields but there is no Layout for mapping?
Do I need create seperate forms for this as I have some prefilled hedaer fields which I can't pass using download beacause there is no context design available for this?
Regards,
Srinivas

you could either create a separate form for your offline form using Data Dictionary interface or use the Data Dictionary interface for both of your forms.
You do have the option of creating your own XML file for your offline form - you may be able to copy the XML code out of your online interface, save it to a file and use that for your offline interface - i'm not 100% sure on this as I've never done that.

International SSRS report printing for both A4 and Letter

I've been reading a few articles on the net about making reports either A4 or Letter and I am aware of how to change the layout of the page to be specific for either
The problem we have is that we have some users that use A4 paper, and other users that use Letter size paper.
We would ideally like the user to press the print button from the browser window (note not exported to PDF) and for the report to be printed off on their favourite printer
We have modified the layout to be the lowerst common denominator size (210mm x 279mm). When we print to our printer which uses A4 paper, it errors because the paper size is odd and needs confirmation to use A4 instead. I am making the assumption
that using a printer with Letter size has the same problem.
We do not want our users to have to deal with errors on their printer every time they try to print a report, it doesn't look good. We don't want to write 2 versions of each of our reports as that will be time consuming and a maintenance nightmare
Has anyone managed to make SSRS reports printer agnostic or at least be able to print out on either A4 or Letter without additional intervention on the printer?
Tony

Hi Tony,
What version of SSRS are you using? Are you seeing this from the Report Viewer control or Report Manager?
In my Report Manager, when I try to print a report (SSRS 2008 R2), the Layout defaults to Letter. When I look at the report (RDL) property in BIDS, the PageSize property is set to 8.5in (Width), 11in (Height), which refers to PageWidth and PageHeight respectively.
The following blog explains these properties:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bwelcker/archive/2005/08/19/alien-lanes-_2800_logical-and-physical-pagination-rules_2900_.aspx
In SSRS 2005, for the Report Viewer control, due to a VS 2005 issue, we had a situation where it would not allow custom paper size. By modifying the report page size to the exact Letter size (279.4mm = 11 inches), for example, we would be able to see the
Letter size in that situation. This should be fixed on and after SSRS 2005 SP2.
In general, after rendering a report, Reporting Services sends the height and width information to the printer driver when we try to print a report, which selects the appropriate paper type based on the report size.
In my test, when I tried to print, it chose Letter with Portrait Orientation. I was able to change it to A5 from the Print Dialog and was able to print in both ways (A5/Letter) without any error message.
Thanks,

ABAP List formats to cater for both A4 and Letter environments

We have an environment where now both Letter and A4 stationery is used. Where can we get ABAP list formats for the Letter stationery and should we define them separately e.g. X_65_80 and X_65_80_LTR?
Secondly what is the transaction path for copying and modifying ABAP list formats?

Hi
You cann;t change the font size thru report.
Go for either Script/smartform for the same.

Any idea how you can safely use ONE computer for BOTH work and internet?

I'm planning to set up a small music project studio, built around a powerbook, that I will be sharing with a friend of mine. My friend is going to use the computer for music AND heavy internet use, but I will only use it for music work (off-line).
The thing is then that I am slightly worried about viruses, worms, spyware and similar unwanted stuff 'sneaking in' when the laptop is online. Even with firewall and anti-virus I guess there is always a risk.
Any idea if there is a way of keeping things completely separate?
How about if I had a bootable external hard drive for my work, with the Mac OS system on. Then when I'm working I could boot up from that drive (and use the computer off-line).
Maybe we could even remove the internal hard drive from the powerbook (?), and use the powerbook with two external hard drives instead: One bootable drive for me and another bootable drive for my studio partner (and then only connect one hard drive at the time).
Any idea if this would work well..? (I'm not sure if i.e. a virus could sneak in anyway, through the PRAM, L2 cache or the RAM or something similar) Or does anyone have any other suggestions...? Any ideas much appreciated. Thanks!

Not too much worry with Macs, but get an Ethernet Router, skip Wireless, use strong Passwords.
How about if I had a bootable external hard drive for my work, with the Mac OS system on. Then when I'm working I could boot up from that drive (and use the computer off-line).
Excellent idea, especially if the heavy Net user doesn't have Admin rights.
One bootable drive for me and another bootable drive for my studio partner (and then only connect one hard drive at the time).
Just about foolproof! Just need 2 more drives for backup. Not sure why you'd want to remove the internal HD though.
No Viruses yet in OSX land, in fact the only Malware I know about requires you to install it for itself!
You'll be OK, that separate drives idea is pure genius.:-)

Advice on improving graphics for app for both iPad and iPhone

I am creating an app for both iPad and iPhone 4 and it looks terrible on the iPhone 4.
I have created the Flash File in Flash CS5.5 IDE with Movie Size 1024 x 768 and I am using the following AIR for IOS settings:
Rendering: CPU
Device: iPhone and iPad
Resolution: High
All my graphics are vector so I assumed that it would look crisp on both devices. It is not as perfect looking on the iPad as it appears on my PC monitor but I can live with it. I can't however live with the iPhone 4 appearance.
I am therefore seeking advice on how to improve the iPhone 4 appearance.
As far as I am aware, there is not a way to use 2 sets of graphics, one for each device. Please correct me if this is wrong and it would offer me a solution.
Would doing all the graphics as PNG be a solution?
Btw I am using AIR 3.2 SDK if that has any relevance and my graphics are static.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the swift reply Colin. I do not recall setting a stage.quality setting - is the default setting low?
I did a quick google search and see this appears to be the code I need. I assume I put this in the first frame of my Flash movie?
stage.quality = StageQuality.MEDIUM;
Thanks

Hi Jamesdwills,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
If you are using the same Apple ID on both devices, the Game Center profile should be the same.
Check out this information from the iPad User Guide. Try signing out of the Game Center on both devices and then sign back in with the correct Apple ID:
