How can I rearrange the pages in a PDF without changing the assigned paged numbers.

How can I rearrange the pages in a PDF without changing the assigned paged numbers? These correspond to the original document folio numbers.

In theory it would be possible to 'record and play back' the page numbers using a folder-level script, but it's far from trivial. You would have to use the doc.movePage() function - presumably driven by a dialog box - to do the page shuffling so there was a way to track what was being done, then swap the page 'labels' of the two affected pages. That's where it gets messy.
We have functions in the JSAPI which can read and write the page label, but they don't do things in a logical way. The 'getPageLabel()' function simply returns a string, but the 'setPageLabel()' method expects to be told the numbering scheme, prefix, etc. You'd have to parse the string and work out what scheme it was implementing.

    You cannot use the Japanese iTunes Store unless are physically present there and have a Japanese payment method. This applies even for free apps; you cannot get them from the Japanese iTunes Store if you are in the US.
    If you are in Japan, you can set up a new iTunes Store account just to get free apps. See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
    If you have moved to Japan and wish to change the country of your account permanently, you can contact the iTunes Store and ask them to clear your remaining balance. You will need to be able to provide a Japanese payment method, though.
    Regards.

    I think you have to have the files on your HD. So either put them in iPhoto or copy them to a folder in Finder, and from there you can upload to Facebook.

  • How can I make some pages in a PDF display in single-page view and others in two-page (facing) view?

    Exactly as it says on the tin. I am looking to save a PDF magazine/book layout in such a way so that when opened, only the front and back covers open to the viewer in single-page mode, and the rest of the pages in two-page facing mode, without re-printing the in-between pages in booklet format  and re-inserting them into a new PDF (with the front and back covers left separate and untouched, and included as single portrait-orientation pages). This is so that individual pages can still be printed (on a physical printer, not a "virtual" one like a PDF driver), as-is without having the page next to it included, or the printouts always requiring landscape orientation (resulting with two "pages" from the PDF showing up on one sheet of paper).
    So when the PDF is opened, I want just the front and back cover to be auto-viewed by themselves, and the content (the "meat" of the document) viewed side-by-side, as though one were actually reading a "book" -- but without actually re-doing the content pages to be "fused" side-by-side. Thus creating the "illusion" that they are, in fact, in booklet form. Is this possible, to have different page-display settings for different pages/page ranges in a single PDF? If so, how is this done? If not, what would be my best course of action otherwise to achieve this "virtual" book layout, while still retaining the "physical" structure of the document and allowing individual pages to be printed by themselves rather than "fused" together?

    The best you can do practicably is the 'two up with cover page' view mode. The first page will appear singly but not centered, and to get the last page to behave it would have to be a folio sheet.
    It's theoretically possible to use JavaScript to reset the view mode as each page is changed, but it makes for a nightmare of usability (what if someone on a smaller display wants to use 'fit to width'? Not an option if JS keeps overruling it). Anything involving JS won't work on non-Adobe software or mobile devices.
    Not a programmer by any means, so I won't be using JavaScript because I wouldn't know where to begin. I was thinking more in terms of an option I could adjust in the menus or dialogues.

  • How can I convert a Pages document into PDF or RTF?

    I have been asked to send a Pages document to PC users in RTF or PDF format.  How can I get my Pages document to convert into other formats for PC people?
    Is that what the export feature is supposed to do?  I just don't know how to sent my document via e-mail to non-Apple conputers!

    You didn’t indicate whether you are using Pages ’09 v4.+ or the latest Pages v5(.2) release. To send an email with either Word or PDF attachment from within Pages:
    Pages ’09 v4+
    Pages menubar > Share (category Send via Mail) > (select Word (.doc) or PDF). Mail will launch into a compose window with the document already attached.
    Pages v5+
    Pages toolbar > Share > Send a Copy > Email > (select Word (.doc/x) or PDF - best). Mail will behave as above.
    Note: Either version of Pages is not an MS Word clone and it must translate content into the Microsoft document architecture. If you must have maximum Word document accuracy, you will need Office for Mac 2011, and the associated MS Word application that produces native .docx format.

  • How can one edit a .gif file graphics background and change the fonts in Photoshop Elements 13?

    I am trying to change the color and fonts of some of my web sites .gif files. Can I change the color to another hexadecimal color and change the fonts of the letters in Photoshop 13? I am using Windows 7 and heard that you could save the .gif file to another format, edit it, then change the file back to a .gif file. Is this true? If so, how do you do it? The file just has a solid color with the letters "Firm " on it. No animation.

    You can edit a gif without changing the format, but once you save the file as a gif the text becomes part of the image, not text anymore, so you would need to clone or heal away the existing text and then create a new text layer and use save for web to create a new gif.
    For access to the most editing tools, while the file is open in the editor go to image>mode and change it from index color to RGB. Saving as a gif will change it back to index mode.

    You'll need to copy the Pages documents from the old iCloud account to the new one.  To do this, go to iCloud.com from your Mac and sign into the old account.  Launch Pages beta and confirm that your documents are still there.  Assuming they are, select them, then click the gear icon on the menu bar and choose Download Documents and choose the Pages format.  This will download copies of the documents to your Mac.  Drag the downloaded documents to your desktop and double-click on them to extract them from the .zip files.  Next, sign out on iCloud.com and sign back into your new iCloud account.  Launch Pages beta in the new account, then drag and drop the documents from your desktop to the Pages beta window to upload them to the new account.  You can now access the documents from devices signed into your new account.

  • How  can I open a document that i saved without buying the latest pages?

    I saved two documents last week and now I can not open them without "buying the latest version of pages"  Is there anyway to save this information without being forced to buy new software.   I have been happy with my old pages and saved it with my old pages and not I can not open it with out buying the new version.  I feel that apple is holding my document hostage.  Any help would be appreciated.

    DM,
    You probably already have V5 without knowing it. Unless someone else edited your documents with V5, it was you, and you just need to make sure that you are using V5 for edits.
    Right-Click the docment in Finder and choose Open With: Pages V5.x
    I'd be surprised if you didn't find that option.

  • How can I re-insert pages into a PDF?

    Hi- it will become obvious that I am new to Illustrator (Creative Cloud 2014 on a Mac, for what it's worth).  I am editing a brochure and when I opened the PDF with Illustrator I was asked to select a particular page on which to work.  Now that I have done that it saved as a separate page- how can I insert it back into the brochure format?  As it stands now I have the old brochure in its entirety, and an edited, single page separately. 
    Thank you in advance.

    If you have Acrobat Pro, you can replace the previous page with the new page and then, resave the new .pdf.  It is a simple swap.
