IPad rotate webpage to landscape OVERsizes page to larger than screensize

I have a responsive website, that tests fine on older models of ipad/iphone. But on the new ios/Safair (5.1.1), the page looks fine on portrait mode. Rotate it to landscape and the website resizes too large for the actual browser window and enlarges. I simply want it to rotate and then re-scale the page width.
(you can see a very basic sample here: http://hhwdsandbox.com/db/testformat.cfm).
This tests fine on Adobe's Device Central for iPads, iPad2s. Also tests fine in other browsers (Chrome, Opera, Mercury) on this same iPad. but the Safari browser rescales too large. Of course double tapping or pinching can reset it to the browser window. However, this is a real source of contention with the web design client who insists that it should resize appropriately on Safari. And.... He's right.
Questions: First is this a bug or technical issue? What is the reason the landscape mode responds like this when turned from portrait?
and Second, are there any plans to update/correct this issue?

You must be using the Amazon plug-in for InDesign which I think doesn't get many updates.
I think that Anne-Marie Concepcion recommends first creating an EPUB file, then using KindleGen to create the Kindle MOBI file. You can watch her videos on Lynda.com.

The web server in j2eesdk1.3 only generate pages not larger than 8K(8192B)?

I use j2ee sdk1.3 now to develop a web site,
ejb for background operations, jsp for display.
And I use deploytool to deploy them.
But I find that the web server can only generates web pages less that 8192 bytes.
Where can I set the parameter?
Thanks!

and if web pages are larger than 8192 bytes,
them will be truncated.

Ipod touch display issue--default page size larger than display

When any page appears on the display, whether 'enter passcode' page, the homepages, or app pages, the page momentarily appears at the true (display) size, then increases in size so that the display shows only about 80% of the page. Pinching has no effect on sizing, but finger swipes will move page within the display frame. This first occurred today after about 6 months of ownership. Any thoughts?

Tap the screen twice with three fingers to get to normal screen. Then go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn off Zoom. Also see:

Using Pages, how do I include occasional "landscape"-formatted pages into a "portrait"-formatted document?

Using Pages, how do I include occasional "landscape"-formatted pages (for large tables) into a long "portrait"-formatted document?
I have not been able to find the solution on Pages Help.

It can't be done in Pages, hence you don't find the solution in Pages help!
You can rotate the table on the page instead. Press Cmd and drag the right lower corner 90 degrees

Print the report on page has width larger than height and not landscape mode

Hi,
I'm trying to print report on page (Width: 18cm, Height: 13cm) which the width larger than the height.
The problem is windows keeps changing the page oreintation to landscape and when I change it back to portrait its changing the width to 13cm and height to 18cm.
I'm using dot matrix printer to print the report, if i put Landscape , printer is printing the text in horizontal.
Already i have tried to setup the custom for on printer, and used custom page size but it is changing to landscape.
I need to print the report with out preview, direct print top printer, NO PDF....
Thank you .....

Hi Anil,
After testing the issue in my environment, I can reproduce it. When I set (Width: 18cm, Height: 13cm) as the Report Page size, it would automatically convert Orientation from Portrait to Landscape. Because the Orientation displayed is dependent on the page
width and page height of the report.
But in my scenario, the Orientation option just change the Width and Height sizes, it couldn’t affect the text rotation. I guess this issue can be caused by the printer and printer driver, please try to update them. Reference:

Hope this helps.

Unable to print to PDF Oversize pages from FrameMaker 9.0 and 7.2

Hi All,
I am trying to print to PDF a publication that is full of oversize wiring diagrams. The pages are all images ranging in size from standard A3 and A4 siz sheets through to a foldout being 1470 mm W X 297 mm H. We have no problem printing A3, A4 and 630 mm W X 297 H. These are all Portrait images. When we set up our custom print size to accomodate the 1470 mm W X 297 mm H we get the pages without the content, and even some of the oversize pages are not the correct size on print.
The page sizes we are using are:
A4
A3
630 x 297 mm
840 x 297 mm
1050 x 297 mm
1260 x 297 mm
1470 x 297 mm
The procedures we are using to set up the printing are:
1.      Print to PDF (Do not Save to PDF, you do not have control over paper sizes)
Under Print Setup make sure you select PDF Driver and select the Paper size as largest that is in your book. Example: If A4 and A3 pages, print to A3
2.      Select Generate Acrobat Data and select
Note: Back in FM Print dialogue; make sure Print to File is turned OFF, before you click Print
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

AJ,
I tried to duplicate the scenario and ran into issues when using very wide custom pages. For whatever reason, FM tries to output the 1497x297 as 297x1497, no matter what the controls for Portrait or Landscape are set. Also changing the dimensions in the printer instance Custom Page Size didn't seem to have the desired effect.
I checked the .ps files being produced, and in all cases the page and file Bounding Boxes get defined as:
%%PageBoundingBox: 0 0 842 1786
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 842 1786
Whereas, in the same file the custom page size is defined as:
%%BeginFeature: *CustomPageSize
1786 842 0 0 0
   4 dict begin
   3 1 roll
   2 array astore /PageOffset exch def
   2 mod 0 eq {exch} if
   2 array astore /PageSize exch def
   /ImagingBBox null def
   currentdict end setpagedevice
%%EndFeature
Note: that the H W components are transposed.
Something is definitely screwy here. The content appears to be created off the page in many scenarios.
I tried all permutations of H W, Portrait/Landscape and Paper Feed directions, but could not get output created that had the long dimension horizontal (i.e. landscape orientation). Even with pre-defined page sizes, I wasn't completely able to control the output orientation.
I then changed the defined page size within FM from a portrait aspect ratio, i.e. H > W to a landscape, W > H. I was then able to get the content appearing correctly in the 1497x297 layout. It looks like FM is trying to be "smart" and thinks it knows better as to what you want on output.
First, check that your FM page size has W > H. If printing from a Book, where you have mixed page sizes and orientations, I believe that the first file sets the orientation for the whole lot. So if the first one is a standard portrait page and you have large landscape inserts, and are trying to print to oversize pages in the landscape mode with Generate Acrobat Data on to ensure page sizes are cropped - you're going to have orientation issues with the larger pages.
Try printing these large page sizes separately and use Acrobat to replace the pages from the book output.

Unable to print to oversize pages using Adobe FrameMaker 9 \ 7.2 and Distiller 9.0

Create a specific FM file having a custom page size appropriate to each unique "content set".
Create a FM Book file.
Add the FM files.
Work up configuration (Hypertext, Cross-References, autonumbering, variables, etc.) as desired.
In Print Setup -
Set page size to the page size of the largest FM file in the Book.
(you may have to go into the Adobe Printer and add one or more custom page sizes so the page size needed is available)
Set orientation to landscape if any FM files are such.
Idea is, if needed, FM files for the content in the various page size/orientation that is appropriate to the content.
If that means 1FM file of custom size and appropriate orientation then do it.
Book files can deal with it.
Back to Page Setup.
Do the Page Size & Orientation.
Access 'Propertires' - is the Distiller job option selected the one you want/need?
Create one if need be so that it is available.
Go into the Print Book dialog.
Configure as needed (remember Acrobat data links, etc. &, oh yes, back in FM be happy with the configurations under tabs for PDF Setup).
Print the Book.
Use Distiller to take to output *.ps to *.pdf (may want the use a "watched folder")
Output PDF can/will reflect the the different page sizes and page orientations.
n.b., FM-Acobat-Distiller releases have a "sync band".
It is discussed somewhere in some kb articles.
I'm not sure if FM7.2 functions quite right with Distiller 9.
FM 8 will (&, of course FM 9)
I've had no problems with FM7.2 or FM8 and Distiller 8.
Be well...

I'm trying to print out a credit card statement from my iPad, it only prints the first page not the 4 pages, please help

I read your first post when I was posing a separate question on the Mac Pro board. I now see that we may be talking about printing from an iPad with Airprint instead!!!!! I very much suspect the print command and settings are different for Airprint but I have never used it to be able to offer concrete advice. I think the setting choices could be different even with Airprint on the laptop and further that you may not even be using Safari but some special app???
I've not heard or seen the term "frame" in the context of printing before except perhaps in the context of a screen shot. Is the credit card statement a "pop-up" of some kind rather than a webpage or pdf?

SSRS: How to handle Landscape PDF page

I’m using SSRS to author PDF documents of size 8.5 * 11. I use the article
here to achieve this. But I don’t know how to handle the situation when one of the PDF page ( not the whole PDF file) is in landscape mode. Here are the steps I’m following
1>
Convert each PDF page into .png. each Size 8.5 * 11in
2>
Create report of size 8.5 * 11
3>
Drag & drop rectangle onto report body. Each rectangle of size 8.5 * 11in. represents one PDF page
4>
Set background image of rectangle to PNG created earlier.
Issue here is, if one the page in PDF is in landscape mode. When I create png for this page I have to rotate the image so that I can author it during design time. This image becomes 11 * 8.5 instead of 8.5 * 11.
If I leave the report size 8.5 * 11 then output PDF creates extra pages.
If set report size 11 * 11 then out PDF is also 11 * 11 ( which we don’t want)
Question:
Is there any way to rotate that particular rectangle (PDF page) clockwise during PDF export. Note that all other pages will be in portrait mode except the one which I want rotate.
Any help, hint will be appreciated

Thanks Katherine
Unfortunately i
cannot use that solution. I'm planning to use SSRS to author PDF document. (as described in this
article here).
So the rectangle will have background set to an image. and then there will be controls (textbox, tables etc) on the top of rectangle image. So setting the rectangle's visibility will not solve my issue.
i think solution would be to author each Landscape page as separate report. and then export them as separate PDF. and merge them using third party APIs
Unless anyone has other solution

My ipad is stuck in landscape mode. how do i get it to autorotate again?

My ipad is stuck in landscape mode. I have closed all open apps and rebooted, but still didn't help. Any suggestions?

Double click the home button, swipe to the right until you see the play controls for music, right next to it is the icon for the screen orientation lock. Tap on it to unlock the screen again, your icon in the right corner will be gone.
tap on the home button to close the multitask bar again.
Troubleshooting Rotation Lock
If your iPad display does not rotate as expected, verify that Rotation Lock is off:
Check the status bar for the Rotation Lock icon.
Toggle the Side Switch to verify that the device is not locked.
Note: Some apps do not rotate to match the current or locked orientation. Use the Home screen to determine Rotation Lock status.
If Rotation Lock is off and you are still unable to rotate the iPad display, restart your iPad:
Hold the Sleep/Wake button until "slide to power off" appears, and then slide to turn off your device. When it is off, press the Sleep/Wake button to turn it back on.

IPad rotation lock in iOS 4.2, is it gone?

The iPad rotation lock disappeared from its original location in favor of a mute button on the iPad when Apple released iOS 4.2 for the iPad on November 22, 2010.
Apple has acknowledged the workaround in the knowledgebase:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
This has caused much consternation, and while the forums do offer user to user help, it generally can be frowned upon, when people rant about issues that no one on the forum has any direct control over. If you desire this feature to be returned to the current mute button, or an easier downgrade path, please submit feedback to:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
I'm an end user myself, and while I'm not happy about the change, all I can do is inform others how to work around it.
Thank you.

November 22nd, 2010, the rotation lock functionality shifted from the slider next to the volume control, to a similar function on the iPhone iOS 4.2, as the iPhone and iPad operating systems were brought together. Apple documents the change here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
If people desire the iPad to have a single hardware switch for rotation of screen display with rotation of the iPad orientation again, there is this feedback page:

A single report can't combine portrait and landscape oriented pages

Post Author: joelo2
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hi,
Can a single report in Crystal report XI (version 11.5.8.826) combine portriat and landscape oriented pages like Crystal report 2008? For example, I have one main report with several subreports in the main report. I want one subreport be in portrait page orientation and the other subreports in landscape. Can I do something like that in Crystal report XI version? I even tried writing a small .net program to do this, but it doesn't seem to allow me to do that programmatically either. Please help

I'd like to elevate this issue with Crystal Reports XI. There is a critical application which we developed in-house which needs both portrait and landscape orientation in each of the 30,000 plus documents we are sending out every month.If developers in Business Objects are picking this thread up - we need a patch for this limitation - quick. Right now, we are toying with the possibility of exporting the documents into a text format with markers indicating if a page is portrait or landscape. This is to be loaded into a Xerox machine (which costs hundreds of thousands of dollars), where it is mapped automatically to portrait or landscape. Note to Business Objects: This will provide us and countless others with much value. Think 80/20 rule - most bang for your development bucks and value for your customers!

HT4199 What does it mean when I click on my wifi name and the bars come up but the network keeps thinking and the ipad says safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet. ?

What does it mean when I click on my wifi name and it show I'm on my wifi, but the network keeps thinking and the ipad says, Safari cannot open this page because it is not connected to the internet. ?

When you click on the WiFi network name, have you also provided the password for accessing the network? You should get a dialogue box asking you for the security information the first time you connect.
If you are not able to connect, you might want to go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings.
Then go back to Settings > WiFi and select your network name again and make sure the security information is now entered correctly.
If you still cannot connect, power down the router, wait a few minutes, power up the router, with the iPad powered down the whole time, and after the router has had several minutes to stabilize power up the iPad. See if it now connects correctly.

Can I view the same pdf on multiple iPads at the same time with 1 iPad operating as the master (controlling page turns etc)?

Would like to use 4nr iPads as an autocue system. Can I view the same pdf on multiple iPads at the same time with 1 iPad operating as the master (controlling page turns etc) and the others operating as slaves? Can this be done without the use of 3G or a remote Wifi hub? I would appreciate your input.................

Open the document in Acrobat Reader and use the menu Window > New Window.
