Acrobat X Standard header and footer not working

We have just purchased 18 Fujitsu scansnap scanners. Each unit comes with Acrobat X Standard on a disc. I have installed my program disc twice now trying to fix the issue I am having. Currently I have the option to add a header/footer and when I choose this option the add header and footer screen opens up. However when I type something into the footer text field and click ok nothing happens? The screen doesn't close, I have to click on the cancel button, nothing shows in the Preview section of that screen and nothing appears on the document? One of my co-workers has installed the program and as soon as he opens the add header/footer screen the Preview section of that screen is available, and whatever he types in the footer field appears in the footer section of the Preview? HELP

This the Adobe Reader forum, there are a number of forums for Acrobat.

Header and Footer Not Displayed

I have created an rtf template and have a header and footer sections, but they are defined within the body with tags, e.g., <?template:header?> and <?end template?>. In the header section, for example, I then call <?call:header?> to display the header. When I preview the data in PDF from BI bublisher, everything is just fine. But, when I then register the template in Oracle Applications and run it as a concurrent program, the header and footer are not displayed at all in PDF output. It's as if the header and footer are totally being ignored. I even tried just putting plain text in the header and footer in the rtf template, but it's still being ignored. What could be the issue? I also tried increasing the header and footer margin area thinking that perhaps there's too much to display and I'm not giving enough space, but this didn't seem to help either. I'm working in a different instance as I have switched job. I have worked on other rtf templates and have integrated into Oracle Applications, but never run into this issue before. I've always been able to display header and footer. Could I need a patch of some sort or am I missing some setups that I'm not aware of?

Have you verified that the XML/BI publisher version that the server is running is the same version as what you are running on the desktop? Not sure if this will make a difference, but worth a check.
If they are the same, can you post the tags you are using exactly as they appear in your template?

Acrobats PieceInfo for Header and Footer spec?

Hi,
I would like to process PDF documents with Headers, Footers and Watermarks added by Acrobat. There is a Private application data (PieceInfo) in added Header, Footer and Watermarsk XObjects called ADBE_CompoundType having key Privat with value Background (or Heade, or Watermark).
Is there any public specification for reading/generating this XML data to be compatible with Acrobat?
The xml data is marked as:
- HeaderFooterSettings version = "8.0"
- BackgroundSettings version = "8.0
- WatermarkSettings version = "8.0
Any help is appreciated.
J,

No, that information is (as marked) private.

Header and Footer in not displaying correctly on each page in Adobe Forms

Hi experts,
   I need your little help on Adobe Form. I have develop a customer account statement and facing problem.
     In header and footer part I have to display customer address. It is ok if data is of one page. But when data is overflowing, customer address is showing only at first page in header, and not displaying address neither in header nor in footer(footer section will print on last page, it may be either first page or third page ) on other pages. (Address is table type data )
       Header and footer Section address has been designed on Master Page.
Please help me to resolve these two problems as soon as possible.
Regards
Piyush

I found this post which I hope helps:
This can be done by bit of tweaking using JavaScript.
Actually the problem was, the header was printing continuously in subsequent pages and once the header data was over the rest of the pages contained blank header. But we need have to print same header for each group of items till that group of items finish in the specific page. And for new group of items different header will be filled and so on.
So to overcome this issue, create the item table in such a way that the header data is also included in the item table for each group of items. In the layout, select your header field and the event READY LAYOUT and write the below JavaScript code. This event is called for each page for that header field, so you can directly map the item table value and put it in your header field.
// Get the current page
var currpage = xfa.layout.page(this);
// variable to store number of fields in that page.
var fields = 0;
// Get the number of fields
        fields = xfa.layout.pageContent(currpage-1, "field", 0);
// Loop on each field on the page
        for ( i=0; i<= fields.length-1; i++ )
// Check if the field is in the item table column (it will be actually header data column in your item table)
            if ( fields.item(i).name == "TL" )
// Fetch that value and store in your header field.
                       this.rawValue = fields.item(i).rawValue;

I want to remove the header and footer when printing from my mac, i can do this in the Page Setup on my PC but not on the Mac. I can do it each time I print but then it resets. How do I make a universal change?

== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Go to the "File" menu, then "Print." The window that appears will have three drop-down menus at the top.
The first is labeled "Printer",
The second is "Presets".
The third is unlabeled but has "Copies & Pages" selected by default.
Click on that third menu and select "Firefox" near the bottom of the list.

I have just updated to Pages 5.1 and now the templares which I have saved do not displat the header and footer which they were saved with in the previous version. How can I have the header and footer included when I open a template?

I have just updated to Pages 5.1 and now the templares which I have saved do not displat the header and footer which they were saved with in the previous version. How can I have the header and footer included when I open a template?

That is becuase Pages 5.1 has numerous unnounced surprises for the unwary user. Among the surprises:
- it strips out images from headers and footers without warning
- it strips out bookmarks without wanring (yes, all those bookamrks you laboriously put into a document: poof! Gone.)
- it strips out alternating left/right margins, without warning.
There are many more suprises, as you'll see from glancing through these discussions. They fall into two main categories: things that are present in version 4.3 but that are missing in 5.1, things like
-mail merge
-meaningful Applescript/Services support
-non-contiguous text selection
-ability to set defaul zoom
-ability to see comments while editing
-ability to print comments
-ability to read RTF files
-ability to drag in hyperlinked ted from a browser
These about about 90 other features are gone.
Then there are the bugs. Hyperlinks do not reliably export to a PDF file any longer. There have been multiple problems with printing report. Some fonts place stray characters in the headers. Many reports of the program crashing, courrupting files, etc.
Fortunately for you, the previous version of Pages is still on your system. Export any documents you may have created or edited with Pages 5.1 (another great surprise: files created with version 5.1 cannot be read by any previous version of Pages: not just 4.3 but even 5.01!). Then trash 5.1 and use 4.3 until (unless?) it is stable and has a reasonably robust feature set.

Are you using any MS Office third party Add-ins? Test: Remove third party Add-ins other than PDFMaker. Test to see if the MS Office apps run afterward.
Did you attempt to repair MS Office? Test: Go to Add/Remove Control Panel run Repair.
Finally, have you tried testing to see if it's PDFMaker? Test: Use the Add/Remove Control Panel to modify the Acrobat installation to remove PDFMaker. See if MS Office applications launch and behave correctly?

Remove filename header and footer

Hello! When you open a HTML file in Acrobat it puts the path to the filename in the header and footer automatically. How can I remove this?
I went to Header/Footer and tried to update or remove, but it says there is no option. How do I do this?
In another issue, Is there any plugin that will let me "press enter" to move the body of text downwards in the PDF, similar to Microsoft Word? I imported a bunch of company listings from a HTML document and I am trying to space them out 3 to a page and I need to shift the body of text down to the next page break. Is this possible with Acrobat or an affordable program/plugin?
Kind Regards,
Kevin

Have you tried using the Touch Up Text tool for both of your issues? Touch Up Text will not work in an automated way, but you can use it to manually edit existing text on the page. Not sure about any plugins that remove headers/footers, although there might be a way in Acrobat's help files that outline how to prevent it from automatically embedding on converted HTML pages from web browsers.

Strange gaps in Header and Footer

Im getting gaps in the header and footer on some of my pages. Sometimes the gaps are filled with the background color of the colomn and other times they are the body color which is even weirder. An example link would be http://www.mojogar.com/pcRepair.aspx . In IE8 I get a gap on top but not the bottom. In Firefox3 the gap is on the bottom and not the top. ???

/* Tips for this Hybrid layout
1. Since the side columns em-based sizing is based on the user's default font size, you will want to be sure that background graphics in the columns take that into account. Built correctly, this is more accessible for those that need larger font sizes, since the width of the columns remains proportionate. If this is undesirable with your design, simply change the width to a pixel size and be sure to change the margins on the #mainContent div accordingly.
2. Since the sizing of side columns in this layout are based on the 100% font size in the body element, if you decrease the text size overall by using a font-size: 80% on the body element or the #container, remember that the column widths will downsize proportionately. You may want to increase their widths, and the size of the #mainContent div's side margins, to compensate for this.
3. If font sizing is changed in differing amounts on each div instead of on the overall design (ie: #sidebar1 is given a 70% font size and #mainContent is given an 85% font size), this will proportionately change each of the divs overall size. You may want to adjust based on your final font sizing.
4. The #container div is not necessary for this layout at the 100% width. You may want to use it to create faux columns or limit the width of the layout.
5. It is not neccessary to have the 100% width on the #container div since, by nature, a div takes up 100% of the available space. It is here so that if you want to decrease the size of the overall container - perhaps leaving a bit of margin on each side - this will already be available for adjustment.
.thrColHybHdr #container {
width: 780px;
/*margin: 0 auto; the auto margins (in conjunction with a width) center the page if needed */
text-align: left;
padding: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: 0px;
margin-left: auto;
.thrColHybHdr #header {
background-color: #C9F76F;
height: 100%;
width: 780px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
.thrColHybHdr #header h1 {
margin: 0;
padding: 0px;
/* Tips for sidebar1:
1. Be aware that if you set a font-size value on this div, the overall width of the div will be adjusted accordingly.
2. Since we are working in ems, it's best not to use padding on the sidebar itself. It will be added to the width for standards compliant browsers creating an unknown actual width.
3. Space between the side of the div and the elements within it can be created by placing a left and right margin on those elements as seen in the ".thrColHybHdr #sidebar1 p" rule.
.thrColHybHdr #sidebar1 {
width: 13em;
border-top-width: thick;
border-top-style: solid;
border-top-color: #C06;
float: left;
height: auto;

width: 200px;
text-align: center;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
float: right;
/*.thrColHybHdr #sidebar1 h3, .thrColHybHdr #sidebar1 p, .thrColHybHdr #sidebar2 p, .thrColHybHdr #sidebar2 h3 {
margin-left: 0px;*/ /* the left and right margin should be given to every element that will be placed in the side columns */
/* margin-right: 0px;
/* Tips for mainContent:
1. If you give this #mainContent div a font-size value different than the #sidebar1 div, the margins of the #mainContent div will be based on its font-size and the width of the #sidebar1 div will be based on its font-size. You may wish to adjust the values of these divs.
2. The space between the mainContent and sidebar1 is created with the left margin on the mainContent div. No matter how much content the sidebar1 div contains, the column space will remain. You can remove this left margin if you want the #mainContent div's text to fill the #sidebar1 space when the content in #sidebar1 ends.
3. To avoid float drop, you may need to test to determine the approximate maximum image/element size since this layout is based on the user's font sizing combined with the values you set. However, if the user has their browser font size set lower than normal, less space will be available in the #mainContent div than you may see on testing.
4. In the Internet Explorer Conditional Comment below, the zoom property is used to give the mainContent "hasLayout." This avoids several IE-specific bugs that may occur.

Your HTML code contains conditional comments for IE. Try reducing or removing the extra padding and see if that helps.
/* place css fixes for all versions of IE in this conditional comment */
.thrColHybHdr #sidebar1, .thrColHybHdr #sidebar2 { padding-top: 30px; }
.thrColHybHdr #mainContent { zoom: 1; padding-top: 15px; }
/* the above proprietary zoom property gives IE the hasLayout it needs to avoid several bugs */
