How do I adjust the PDF settings on my mac?

I am having major problems learning to use my mac.
I have docs that I have edited in Word for Mac.
In windows, I used to be able to easily press Print, PDF, then choose the level of PDF I wanted.
Now. I hit print, PDF, then Save PDF As, etc.
Result:
1. Tells me "The borders of Section 1 are outside the printable boundaries. Do you want to continue"
I have gone back and done everything I can think of, but it still will not include a slither of the bottom portion of each page of the completed PDF. Seriously ***? Why not at least prompt me on how to fix this.
2. The resulting PDF is 14.5 MG.  The original Word doc was weighing in at 2.5. Why is it making my doc bigger?? Despite continual searching, I can not find how I adjust the PDF settings to make it a light, emailable PDF.  If I choose Send PDF as email, the result is the same.  A big 14 MG file. This is driving me insane.
I can not now use my mac to do the most simple, yet urgently necessary task I must often do, which is create a doc, pdf it and email it.

    I have a mac 10.5 and need help figuring out how to change my email settings so it does not automatically delete my inbox every 30 days.  How to I adjust the mail settings?

    I think it must be an IMAP account then, & in Mail>Preferences>Accounts>Advanced>Keep copies for Offline viewing:>Don't keep copies, then on the Server, or maybe it's just this one itself, but on the Server you have a setting to remove eMails after 30 days.
    If it's a POP account we'd have to investigate that... but you didn't say so I'm guessing here.

  • How,can,I,adjust,the,camera,settings,on,my,2009,Mac,to,16:9,format?

    I want to use the camera on my 2009 iMac to shoot some footage for a video project. The project is in 16:9 wide screen. How can I adjust the camera to shoot in this format?

    Thanks for letting us know your questions was answered!  A few other thoughts....
    RobertofLadywellVillage wrote: ...the video from the i-sight camera is still in 4:3 format so I suppose that it simply can't produce video in  16:9...
    True, the viewed camera image is always 4:3 with your old iMovie 6 HD, but experiment a bit.
    Some of the iMovie 6 video formats you can select when you create your iSight clips in the separate iSight project can create a 16:9 frame.  That frame will contain your 4:3 iSight image but be filled out to 16:9 with symmetrical black bars on the left and right sides of the image.  These clips will be importable into your widescreen project.  Although the portions recorded on your iSight will contain the black bars that keep the 16:9 aspect ratio you need, you should be able to include both the iSight captured video and your other video clips in the same 16:9 final product.
    If you have a 16:9 digital cameras that can record the clips, use that to get the format you need and better image quality than iSight can provide.
    However, if you really need to record 16:9 iSight video, and if your Mac has QuickTime Player (version 10.x), try using QTX.  After you open a "New Movie Recording" window, QTX can change camera recording aspect ratios by using its Preference controls as shown in this image of the :
    If you really need to use an iSight to capture widescreen video that is not block-filled, another option would be to use a later iMovie version that can record widescreen views of your inbuilt camera. I use iMovie '11 to do this, but, if you don't already have later versions, be sure to check System Requirements for later iMovies before you buy to see if they can work with your Mac OS version.

    For sideloaded content the nook pulls the metadata from ePub file itself.  I would suggest looking at a program like Sigil or Calibre that will let you edit the metadata in the book to make it appear like you want.
    For the PDF vs ePub - No, that's the way PDFs work (think of them as graphics, not text), wheres ePubs are Web Pages - so  no you can't them to behave exactly alike without converting the files.

  • How can I adjust the font size, etc., when completing a PDF form in Preview?

    I would like to use Preview to fill-out or complete a PDF form.  The default font that Preview uses when I begin typing in a field is too large.  How can I adjust the font size.  And while I'm asking, can I also adjust the font color, weight, emphasis, etc.?

    Whilst in the Preview application, press "Shift - Command - A" (⇧⌘A) simultaneously to show the markup toolbar, or click View, and select "show markup toolbar". There is an icon "A" near the right hand side of the now visible markup toolbar, click this icon to reveal all the font options.

  • How do I change the DNS settings to BC but keep the MX setting for emails?

    How do I change the DNS settings to Business Catalyst but keep the MX settings for emails?
    I'm basically created anew site using Muse and want to host it on BC and upgraded to the Web basics + to allow for hosting of downloadable pdf's etc.
    There are up to 50+ emails address set up on the current set up and I want to just change the NDS settings for the domain to ponit to the new site/hosting an not have to worry about them chaning all the meail settings etc.
    Records do I need to change in BC?
    Thanks
    Iain

    Hi,
    You shouldn't need to do anything as long as you do not state hosting email with BC.  Just ensure to check you DNS in a lookup tool that it's still referencing your external email service.
    Otherwise you can set up external email set-up if the option is present.

  • How do I adjust the depth of a text box on a page in an iPhoto book?

    How do I adjust the depth of a text box on a page in an iPhoto book?

    You can't.  Those are fixed.  You can create a custom page in Pages where you can duplicate the background add photos with frames, any size of text box and text.  Make sure page size is the same as you've selected for the book. 
    Then do a Print ➙ PDF ➙ Save PDF to iPhoto of that page.  That till create a 200 dpi jpeg file of that page that you can use on a blank page with an image for the background layout. This is a rough example:
    Custom book cover
    Click to view full size
    Custom text page (left)

  • How do I edit the default settings to always embed fonts?

    How do I edit the default settings in Acrobat Pro XI to always embed fonts?

    Do not use the Std job settings, but use the Press or Print settings. You can also edit the properties of the Job Settings (best done in Distiller) to not exclude any fonts and embed all as subset fonts. Be sure to check the option to continue if embedding is not possible or your creation will fail if you used a font that is not licensed for embedding (Acrobat will only embed fonts that are legally licensed for embedding -- most are, but not all).
    If you edit the Std, you will need to save to a new name. You might use MyStd or such. Then go to the Start>Printers and edit the properties of the Adobe PDF printer to make that settings file the default. If you use PDF Maker, you will have to change the PDF Maker preferences also (PDF Maker seems to use the last selection, not the default in the printer). Hopefully that is clear enough.

  • Can you upgrade from 1.3.0.20 small ovf to 2.1 without migrating to a new server? It sounds like you can just adjust the server settings now.

    Can you upgrade from 1.3.0.20 small ovf to 2.1 without migrating to a new server? It sounds like you can just adjust the server settings now. I am currently running 1.3.0.20 and I have enough to do with also needing to upgrade my wlc to 7.4.121.0 and getting the MSE up to 7.4.121.0 without having to stand up a new server if I don't have to. Please share any information you have in regards to your experience with coming from a version 1.2-1.3 small ovf and going to 2.1.
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    You are better off standing up a new server.  It's cleaner and safer..... you can always try to upgrade if you wish, but if things don't work out well, then you just wasted a lot of time.  Snapshot the VM and export the floor plans, just in case.  The ova is built around the DB size, so I don't know how well the DB will perform if you try to expand memory or drive space after an upgrade.

  • How to verify and_or mod pdf settings

    I'm having a couple of issues with pdfs.
    First, our Epson SP7800 proofer is run off a Mac G5 server with Colorburst 6.1.4 RIP software via USB. Colorburst requires High Quality Print, PDF/X=none, and PDF version 1.6. I can verify all but the High Quality Print setting. Pdfs for imposition/proofing are generated from InDesign with a Screen Trueflow pdf preset. The Settings Summary in Adobe PDF Presets do not show High Quality Print for it, just the Trueflow preset name though I am pretty sure it is High Quality Print. The software is spotty, some files print, some don't for no apparent reason. So I am trying to isolate the variables. I can verify PDF/X=none and PDF1.6 from the resultant Trueflow pdf, but how do I find the PDF Preset setting? (This is all for regular offset printing, the Trueflow pdfs that go to the Screen platesetter present no problems there.)
    Second problem. When I generate a Print Booklet pdf from InDesign for our copy center, the prints come out screened down as if halftoning was reapplied to all (text and images). It is not confined to the output device, it does the same whether to a Ricoh Aficio or a Xerox DocuColor 250. What could be the problem here? A non-Print Booklet pdf prints fine.
    Thanks,
    Rick

    Thank you Rick. As you can see, I am very old school!! In fact, I have no idea what you explained to me.
    My computer is very old and frankly, they dont interest me in the least bit.
    I have health issue's so I dont like being at the computer all day trying to figure something out. I am a non-detailed,get right to the point person.
    And because of my condition,I sometimes end up in bed for days at a time. I have spent 2 weeks trying to set up an on line bank account and I am frustrated. So, I will not deal with Bank of America but dont know where to go from here.
      Thanks for your response!

  • I'm getting audio in voiceover only on the right side in iMovie..  how can I adjust the pan.  Both right and left work in Garageband but not in Imovie.

    I'm getting audio in voiceover recordings only on the right side in playback.  How can I adjust the balance?  I'm using an external mic and preamp that work fine (both channels) in Garageband, so it's not my recording setup.  Balance is Ok using internal mic but the sound is not as good.

    When you share your project, use SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME.
    Click Options.
    In the Sound settings/Channels, choose MONO.
    In the Video settings, choose the codec of your choice (probably h.264) under Compression.

    Yeah, I did. But if I go to settings and change the standard ring tone again, the ring tone for that special contact is still the old standard tone. But I want to 'tell' my iPhone/iPad that this contact should always have the standard ringtone from settings.

    ctrl B makes the top bar (File. Edit. View. Controls. Store. Help.) appear and disappear.
    ctrl S makes a side bar appear on the left side of iTunes. It shows the library which has Music. Movies. TV Shows. Apps. Playlists. Ect.
    When I did the steps you suggested, my iPhone did not show up in that list.
    I checked my firewall settings again, and they seem to be okay. My firewall is the only thing that I am not 100% sure of. If I go to Control Pannel>System and Security>Windows Firewall>Allow an app through Windows Firewall. It shows that iTunes is allowed. I'm not sure if something else might need to be allowed as well though. I have a few Remote options that are not allowed such as, Remote Event Log Management, Remote Scheduled Tasks Management, Remote Shutdown, Remote Volume Management, and Routing and Remote Access. I'm not sure if any of these need to be allowed or not, or if they are even affiliated with iTunes.
