Document Size Change

Hi
im trying toi change the size the printer prints out the copys from the scanner or the prints from the computer
its putting them in a small square rather than a full page
how can this be changed
thanks

Make sure the physical output dimensions of the ID and PS files match. So in Photoshop a 1600x3928 image at 300ppi outputs at 5.333"x13.093"—set the Document Setup for the file you are pasting from to the same dimensions. Or match the Photoshop output dimensions to the ID page's output dimensions. In ID a 1600 x 3928 pixel page outputs as 22.222" x 54.556" (1600 x 3928 at 72ppi in PS)
If you are on OSX you might find this script useful for replicatingID layers in Photoshop:

My document size changes each time i close it

my document size change each time i close it. how can i lock in one size?

Hi K,
I never noticed that before. Mine only changes by a few bytes, unless I add a lot to the Word doc. I don't believe you can "lock it in."

Document size changes when creating pdf from jpeg

When I create a pdf from a jpeg file, the document size increases considerably. The native jpeg was saved in the "save to web" feature in Photoshop. I cannot find settings in ImageReady or Acrobat to make my document the correct size. Any suggestions?

Why not save the PDF from Photoshop directly? This gives full control
over compression settings. It will not, however, downsample so you
should do that first.

Export to PDF ignores document size settings?

I have several documents in InDesign CS4 and when I export them to PDF the document size changes.
I have set all the following options to A4 (210x297mm):
In Indesign: File->Document Settings
In Windows->Printer settings->Adobe PDF->Paper Size
After exporting and opening in Reader 9 the document size has changed to 210 x 303.3mm
This then requires a tweak before the first print run.
I should be able to just export to production and they can print from the PDF without checking the settings!
What have I missed?

I am using the export option not printing to PDF.

How to change Default document size for CC Library Graphics (InDesign)

Good morning --
I have just discovered the amazing uses of the CC Library setup in InDesign and would love to be able to use it as a tool to collaborate template galleries amongst coworkers.
I work in an industry that offers many different templates for our Marketing pieces available to the sales team. What we have in place right now is about 50+ different templates in their own packaged files. Now, this isn't all that difficult to maneuver around, but the CC Library has made it so I can "drag and drop" templates into place. This drag & drop feature is easy enough for me to grasp, and with the proper training it should be with the rest of the team (should being the keyword). However, in some cases if you double-click on Library graphic it opens the file in it's own editable file with a custom document size of 8.5x11 Portrait (which I imagine to be the internal InDesign preset).
My questions therefore are when I double click on the library "Graphics" can the document size be anything other than 8.5x11? Can each Graphic have it's own document preset?
- If I open a file that is set for landscape, all of the "Graphic" falls off of the spread.
- Some "eblasts" are much longer than 8.5x11 (sometimes as much as 8.5x20), thus knocking some of the "Graphics" into that weird space area.
Please let me know if I am not being a clear enough.
Thank you!
Steve

@Steve – you are totally clear what you are doing and what you like to do.
But I fear an automatic setting that is creating the page size according to an asset's size does not exist right now.
I can change the size of a new document beforehand, if no document is open and create a new size in the document's properties dialog with the keyboard shortcut alt + cmd + p (in my German InDesign on Mac OSX 10.7.5). But you have to know in advance what size that should be.
Example: If I chose A3 instead of A4 (my default) when no document is open and double click an asset in a CC Library the asset will be placed in a one page document sized A3.

In MAC, I want to change document size from 8.5X11 to 18X24 to create a poster to print through Staples. I created the doc originally in WORD, changed the size in WORD, converted to PDF doc. But PDF doc is still in 8.5X11. Read ADOBE support help info. Terls me to change size in application rather than printer. BUT ACROBAT Pro does not give me a page set up option in FILE. I can only find one in the printer dialog box. Help!

from the FAQs on Staples website:
I have a file that I know is a PDF, but the website claims it is not in a PDF format. What should I do?
Check to see that the file has the .PDF extension. Also, check that the filename does not have any special characters such as an ampersand (“&”).
Regarding your measurements set to centimeters rather than inches; is it just in MS Word?
Or does it occur in all other applications.
Check your Work preferences first:
If it is happening in all your applications, check your Mac OS System Preferences.

Changing ppi changes pixel dimensions but not document size?

I have an image that is W=4.375 H=6.124 at 355 ppi the pixel dimensions area under Img > Image Size indicates it is W=1553 px H=2174
When I change the resolution to 72 px it is only changing the pixel dimensions and not the document size. I'm confuesed.
1. What is the difference between pixel dimensions and document size?
2. Is the document the same physical size regardless if I make it 200 ppi, 150 ppi or 72?
Thanks.

Let me see if I understand all of this:
- If I change the resolution the print dimension will stay the same, though what is it actually doing to the image if I increase the resolution, though it still is the same print dimension? I am guessing you can not just add pixels to a given size image and expect it to print better.
- If I change the dimensions, the resolution will change because there will be either more pixels for a smaller area or fewer pixels for a larger area, depending on how I size it.
Thanks.

Changing Resolution and Document size

Hello - I have a jpeg from a digital camera that I Saved As photo.psd with an original Document Size of 44" x 66" @ 72 ppi resolution.
I am using CS3 and I want to prepare the photo for printing while maintaining the highest quality possible. The first thing I did was uncheck Resample Image. Then I changed the resolution to 300. This gave me a Document Size of 10.56 x 15.84.
I want to enlarge the Document Size to 16" x 24" (the same proportions). So, it seems to me that the next step is to now check Resample Image and put in my new Document Size of 16" x 24". I would then apply some Unsharp Mask as desired.
So, should Ifollow the steps above or do you recommend a different workflow?
I've read that Photoshop will upres very well up to 200% and all I need is 166%, so it should work ok. Also, do you recommend standard Bicubic or Bicubic Smoother?
TIA

What you're suggesting will work, though you don't really need to do it in multiple steps. One step, with resampling checked, once you set all the fields as you want, will do the trick.
And for all the hype and mystery surrounding the two alternate choices for resampling, in all my work for minor resampling I always find I prefer Photoshop's original Bicubic method. For extreme upsampling I prefer, personally, a plug-in called Genuine Fractals.
Also, modern print drivers are getting very good at size matching... If the image quality in your file is to your liking, you COULD just set the print size in inches (without resampling) and be done with it. This would yield an image at a resolution lower than 300 pixels/inch, but would save you some work, and it may very well be that you will not be able to see any difference by letting the driver do the resampling as needed.

Change Default Document Size Attribute

I understand that I can make a custom attribute that displays the size in KB, MB, etc -
But I want to know how to edit the default Document Size attribute - surely that is possible?

Importing/ causing changes to document size

I have been finding that when I have been importing my retouched JPEG folder into LR it is changing the document size to change to something much smaller. Why is this happening? And how may I fix it so it won't change the size?
Thanks
Andrea

Honestly, there is no point in examining document size.
Your photo, before import was a certain number of pixels, let's say for example 3000x2000. After import, it will be the same number of pixels, 3000x2000. Not a single pixel has been discarded or added.

Changing the document size Attribute

Is it possible to change the document size Attribute to read in Kilobytes or MegaBytes, not just in bytes?
Thanks,

Could you provide an example procedure to display the document size? We also want to display the item size in MBytes within a content area.
Thanks

Document Setup size change-frame defaults to centering

In ID CS3, by default I have my Reference Point set to the upper left. I often get a repeat layout that may have a size change. If I originally had a 3"x5" ad and the repeat calls for a 4"x7", I reset the document setup. The frame goes to the left (0 x coord) but centers itself vertically (0.5" y coord). In QuarkXPress, the frame (box) would go to the 0 x and y coordinates. This is how i'd like InDesign to behave. Any way to do that?

Hi Chinna, thank you for this - this is great - apologies if i didn't make it clear but this displays the info as an alert, and i needed it to appear in the "PageSize" text variable field as per the text in my post. However i think I've managed to work it out (pasted below if you're interested), and it works a treat now, so thank you ever so much for all your help.
var doc = app.activeDocument;
doc.viewPreferences.horizontalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.millimeters;
doc.viewPreferences.verticalMeasurementUnits = MeasurementUnits.millimeters;
for(var i =0;i<doc.pages.length;i++)
pagesize = app.activeDocument.textVariables.itemByName("PageSize");
pagesize.variableOptions.contents = doc.pages[i].bounds[2] + "mm x " + doc.pages[i].bounds[3] + "mm"

Hello ! how to change document sizes and use our own size (not A3, A2 ...) thank you !

hello ! how to change document sizes and use our own size (not A3, A2 ...) thank you !

Experiment. No harm in trying.
If you are just starting to use Pages you need to make your own assessment given current events whether committing your work to a format and software given this support is a wise move.
You also need to look at what will produce workable results. Particularly if your large posters are to be commercially printed and contain large bitmap (photographic) images.
Always work backwards from your output. Ask your printer what they require to do their job.

If I'm copying text and/or vector elements from Indesign to Photoshop how come their pixel sizes change even though I opened the same sized document and my indesign file is a web file?

>my indesign file is a web file
Pardon?
Or do you mean that, when you created a new document, you choose Web as intent maybe?
