How does one print to a Large Format Network Printer in Adobe Reader X?

I have just installed Adobe Reader X on a machine that previously had Adobe Reader 9 (I had to format the hard drive so this is a fresh installation). When attempting to print to a large format Printer (36x24) across the network I cannot change the paper size. Despite attempting to change the paper size to a number of different configurations Adobe X will not print anything but 8.5"x11.0" (which is the default paper size on the local printer). I have tried making the network printer the default printer and that does not make any difference. Everything worked fine with Adobe Reader 9 but not X. Can anyone offer any suggestions?
Also, I can print to both the local printer and the large format network printer fine through other applications.
Thanks.

Just finished testing 10.10 printing via a Windows 2008 R2 print share. I also found that when trying to add the printer using CUPS I would get an authentication error. But if I added the printer using the Windows section of the Add printer pane, then I was able to print fine.
So with you mentioning that using the Windows section of the Add printer window has never worked (which is interesting because it's always worked for me) I want to suggest another approach to adding the printer, still using the Add printer window. With this window open you can right-click on the toolbar and select Customize Toolbar. You can then drag the Advanced icon to the toolbar. Then when you select this, you can set the Type menu to "Windows via spoolss" and then enter the URL as smb://servername/sharename. Select the supporting driver and click Add to complete.
Then when you select to print for the first time using this printer you will be prompted to authenticate. Enter the account details, set the save to Keychain option and OK to send the print job.
This worked fine for me and creates the same queue as using the Windows add printer setting. Curious to hear if this gets your co-worker printing again.

How does one access their images in their libraries in Desktop Adobe Photoshop that are connected to their Mobile Adobe Shape?

So
I have Adobe Shape on my iphone, and in my Creative Cloud on the web it can access the images ive made. BUT, these images wont show up in my library on Photoshop on my computer and i cant seem to save them from the creative cloud on the web.
How does one get from A to B?
Thankyou
Victoria

Hi Victoria and welcome to the forum.
I had to Google Shape but it looks interesting, and dies use the CC Libraries. I am a big fan of CC Libraries, but have only used them between apps on the same machine. So it is just a matter of see how they work between different systems
Illustrator Help | Creative Cloud libraries - collaborate, sync, and share assets
In my experience, I simply drag an asset onto the Library in one app, and it is there in my other apps. But I have to make sure I am looking at the same library name on both computers. Now I have been confused over syncing before, but I suspect that if you open the Application Manager and click on the little Cog icon, and in the Files tab make sure Sync is checked. Otherwise you might as well read the help files.

Good luck

How does one remove a WDS type extended network?

Hi all.
I have had a wi-fi network running at home for a couple of years, based on a Time Capsule.
Recently I have acquired an iPhone, but it had severe difficulty accessing my wi-fi from my back garden, so I bought myself a second-hand 1st Gen AirPort Expres to 'extend' my wi-fi network on that side of the house. There were warnings as I set up this new device, telling me that 'WDS' reduced the bandwith of both TC & APX outputs.
I have now realised that my MacBook Pro doesn't like the signal it is receiving from the APX, (or at least one of the apps I use on it doesn't), and so I have to remove the APX again. My method of doing that was to simply un-plug the APX.
But I am now a bit concerned that doing that will leave my Time Capsule still configured with the reduced bandwidth it had when the APX was still active. Need I worry about that, or will it automatically revert to it's standalone non-WDS configuration now the APX is not powered up?

If you configured a WDS arrangement correctly, then you made WDS setup changes on both the TC and AX. So, you would need to reconfigure both the TC and AX again.
Resetting the TC and AX back to factory default setttings and starting over from scratch....as LaPastenague suggests......is a good idea, since you want to be sure to start over from a clean slate and not retain any of the old WDS settings on the TC and AX.

How does one flush old computer names from network finder?

Whenever I select Network from the Go->Networks Finder menu item, the list of networked computers that appear in the finder includes names of computers that no longer exist on my network. I have tried reinitializing the com.apple.finder.plist and com.apple.recentitems.plist without success. I am running Yosemite and this problem appears on all 3 of my Macs (iMac, mini, and MB Pro). Does anyone know how to clear this list?

How does one print only a highlighted portion of a document?

How does one print only a highlighted portion of a document?

If the App supports that, it would be in the Print dialog. Otherwise, copy and paste the section into something else to print.
The OS doesn’t render pages to print, the App does. The App must support rendering the selection.
You can create an Automator workflow that automates the copy/paste/print/quit functions.
Just create an new Automator Service and make it look like this:
The text of the Applescript is this:
on run {input, parameters}
     tell application “TextEdit"
          print document of front window
          close document of front window without saving
          quit
     end tell
     return input
end run

How does one print single photos using iPhoto. I keep getting an error message:No Available Themes

How does one print single photos using iPhoto. I keep getting an error message:No Available Themes

You need to reinstall iPhoto. To reinstall iPhoto delete the current application and, on all Macs with Snow Leopard or earlier installed, all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the:
HD/Library/Receipts folder (10.5 and earlier)
or from the /var/db/receipts/ folder (10.6) .
Deleting receipts is not necessary if your Mac came with Lion or later preinstalled.
Then install iPhoto from the source it came from originally.

Hi Jeremy...
There's a work around that may help you. The Mac OS X has "accessibity" features installed that can assist in viewing text.
Open System Preferences then select Universal Access then select the Seeing tab.
Zoom settings are available there.
More about Mac OS X accessiliity here > Apple - Accessibility - OS X - Vision
You can provide feedback to Apple here > Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback
If you are not aware, when viewing Safari webpages, you can press Command + (plus) or Command - (minus) to adjust the size of the page.
For zooming text only, click View from the Safari menu bar then from the drop down menu click Zoom Text Only.

How does one deal with transparency in a placed file in InDesign?

I suppose this may seem elementary, but I'm relatively new to it so here goes:
First off, my print shop says that placed images should be in EPS format. I'm creating my files in Illustrator and some of them use a gradient mask to fade an object away. When saved as an EPS, the gradient mask shows as a white box instead of fading into the background. When I copy/paste my Illustrator image into a new Photoshop file, save it as a PSD, bring that PSD into Illustrator and save it as an EPS, the whole file is in a white box.
Example. I want those aisle markers to not be in white boxes.

If possible, one finds a new printer who can handle your files properly and doesn't insist on .eps.
What format are you delivering to the Printer? If it's anything other than PDF (and that's at their request) all the more reason to reread the first sentence. Why on earth are you moving things from Illustrator to Photoshop and back to Illustrator? Either one of those will save as .eps (ugh), though you need to use a clipping path for transparent areas coming out of photoshop (don't really know how Illy handles it when you say to save .eps with transparent background), but you are FAR better off with either native .AI or .PSD, both of which support transparencey, unlike .eps.If yo are delivering PDF, as you should be, it makes no difference to the printer what format the placed content uses (and it shouldn't matter to him even with native files unless he's hopelessly stuck in the 90s).
In any event, when importing from Illustrator, make sure to show the import options and check the transparent background box.

How does one copy an xygraph from a refnum?

Sorry, normally this is straight forward enough to push through on my own.
Purpose:
Pass Refnum of XY graph to subvi -->
Subvi's purpose : PRINT XYGRAPH to file/pdf/bmp, manipulate xy graph further (change back ground color to optomize for printing, optomize xy graph size for printing, move legend), perform some simple analysis on the data (rms, pkp etc)
Problem Statements:
1 When using a refnum, writing any changes to the refnums property value will also change the parent i.e. the subvi xygraph. This is not desired, so an exact copy of the xygraph must be made. HOW DO YOU DO THIS?
2 When using a refnum for an xygraph, how does one retrieve the xy values? If the property node for value is selected, a variant is produced. (which after careful examination I was still not able to make heads or tales of this particular variant)
p.s. A refnum is used because the xygraph already has formatting applied to its legend, plots, axis, etc. A refnum passed to a subvi is the only way I know to pass all formating etc for the graph.
p.p.s. I understand that there is an invoke node that will export an image, it contains certain limitations (such as requiring the subvi be opened, since it works by similar rules to a printscrn) that make it un applicable to this problem.

I don't understand this statement. Does the subVI have a graph also? Obviously, if you make changes to properties via the refnum, then the graph it's pointing to will change.
p.p.s. I understand that there is an invoke node that will export an image, it contains certain limitations (such as requiring the subvi be opened, since it works by similar rules to a printscrn) that make it un applicable to this problem.
Again, I don't understand. Where's the graph? On the main VI, or the subVI? If it's on the main VI, why would this be an issue? Wouldn't the main VI window be open?

How does one email a pages document? In pages 5 when I try to attach a pages document to a gmail email it gives me 2 folders and 4 other files to choose from.

Sounds like you are using Gmail.
Pages 5 uses a zipped package of files as its format. 3rd party servers don't understand the format and show it as the component parts.
Use Mail toenail the file or zip the .pages document before sending.

How Does One Modify Photoshop Templates in Dreamweaver

I posted this over on the Photoshop forum, but no one has
replied. It is a hybrid sort of question.
I've been trying to modify the Horizontal Neutral template of
the Web Photo Gallery in Photoshop CS using Dreamweaver MX (v.6.1)
on my G5 running Tiger and am almost there. Aside from the overall
design (fonts and colors) I really like the interface of this
particular gallery with a horizontal slider to quickly scroll
through images, that when selected, appear in large form in the
center of the page. But I need to customize it to get it to match
the feel of my site.
My problem: I'm trying to point to a gif file that is part of
my website image library as my background. I want the Horizontal
Neutral Gallery to float in that image background. But, I can't
seem to get the background image to appear where it is supposed to.
I've gone into the various components of the template
(FrameSet, SubPage, etc.) and by duplicating the files and
modifying the code, I am able to get the background image to appear
within the tables that make up the navigation and image gallery
components. But, I've not been able to get the image to appear as
the background itself.
I'd even be happy to simply have the entire Horizontal
Neutral Gallery float in the middle of one of my own pages with the
image file as a background if it is possible, but can't seem to
even get it to do that. How does one access the code that controls
the background image in this template or the script that generates
these galleries?
Thanks in advance!

The reason the that the edit button ( - ) top righthand corner had 'disappeared', was that iCloud was enabled but that the Addressbook subsetting under iCloud was set to off in the phone settings.
Changing it to 'on' made the edit button reappear.

How does one manage these new render setting for previews?

I placed 4 HD clips from a nested into a sequence 5800 x 768 to mimic 4 side by side monitors for a multi channel video. Each clip cut from the sequence are at 1280x720 all sitting side by side. However when I rendered the previews, they came look all squished. However when I exported the frame it looks fine in Photoshop. (I changed the uploaded image to what it looks like in Premiere in Photoshop to demonstrate the appearance in Premiere.)
I imagine that the distortion has to do with the sequence render setting which for some reason comes out to 1918 x 253...or the pixel aspect ratio? How does one manage these new render setting for previews so it looks normal in the monitor?


Either way, I thought that this format would be a great way to view on the monitor 4 channels at the same time. I may need to place them on a “normal” 1440 x 1080 sequence in a line, bringing them down to 25% scale to make it work in the end. I did just try that. I think it will work...but when I imported and nested the old file, the scratch disks changed from the original set up on a D drive back to the main hard drive so I had to change it agin. Otherwise it works fine...so I’ll go with this for now
These are the instructions I was given.I attched a screen save of the AE file they asked me to use (They must be on vacation, because I have not been able to get hold of them). I don't know After Effects very well:
“As you begin creating or adapting work for e4c, you may find an After Effects template developed for this system to be helpful. Attached you'll see a zipped file with two AE templates. There is some detailed information (below) from the artist that developed these for us. In addition, a few bits of information that might help you along are:
·        The "Watchout" playback system can support WMV or a QuickTime files . We like .mov files with H.264 codec best!
·        The end resolution of the four screens is 5120 x 720 pixels (1280x720 each).
·        If works are four-channel, please provide a separate audio (aiff) file so it doesn't slow any one video down.”
Thanks for your help!

How does one resize a photo to the dimensions required by a contest?

How does one resize a photo in aperture to the dimensions required by contest?

Are you submitting a print or a file?
You set the size of your print in the print dialog.
You set the number of pixels (the unit of linear measurement of digital images is the pixel) for a file when you create that file by exporting an Image from your Library. You can specify a recommended number of Pixels per Inch by using the (mis-named) DPI field in the Image Export Preset you use when you export.
The files you import have a height and width in pixels. Height/width = the Aspect Ratio. You can crop to any aspect ratio using Aperture's Crop tool.
What are the specs required by the contest's sponsors?
