Any way to export a book using a PDF preset?

Let me first explain the workflow we have right now, and that we are slowly trying to improve upon, but nonetheless...
I am designing a newspaper. We have two individuals who pagenate the pages, laying out the advertisements on them before sending me a packaged InDesign document of each page.
I, right now, am going and opening each InDesign document, then dragging it into my master document, which takes some time. I then finish laying out the newspaper with copy.
I thought recently I might instead simply open all the InDesign documents in a book and then finish laying out the newspaper from there.
My First question though is, can you actually thread text from one text box to a text box in another document within the book? If not, is there any practical solution to this?
Secondly, I tried exporting a book with one of the PDF presets we have created, but I only saw the two options, PDF print and PDF interactive. Is there no way to export a book as one of the pdf presets?
I'm working on a mac on CS6.

First, no, you cannot thread between files, so you would need to move pages from one file into the other.
Second, you can certainly export the book to PDF. There are two "flavors" of PDF, interactive or print, but either one can be used to make a PDF from the entire Book. Choose Export Book as PDF from the Book Panel flyout menu, choose your flavor as appropriate, then choose a location and finally the options.

  • I have huge lag with Safari's Reading List using a rMBP. I have probably 80 articles saved, which is likely the cause of the lag. Is there any way to export that list of articles so as to be able to delete them from Reading List but still have a record?

    I have huge lag with Safari's Reading List using a rMBP. I have probably 80 articles saved, which is likely the cause of the lag. Is there any way to export that list of articles so as to be able to delete them from Reading List but still have a record of the articles I intend to read?

    I'm currently dealing with this issue myself, except that my rMBP has NO articles in the reading list.  It's a brand new rMBP too, purchased just this week, with the 2.6 Ghz Processor & 16GB of RAM.
    Let's see what we can find.  I may just take it back to the Apple Store.

  • Is there any way to export IT Resource data from OIM using the export tool?

    Hello,
    we are trying to migrate an OIM development environment to a preproduction environment and we need to migrate more than 400 IT Resources. We have exported some IT Resources and when we imported them in the preproduction environment their data was not migrated. Is there any way to export IT Resource data from OIM using the export tool? Or is there any other way to do this without doing it by hand?
    Thank you for your help
    Kind Regards

    Well , OIM doesnot provide any such facility to export ITResource data along with ITResource .
    Directly updating the DB could be an option ..
    Thanks

  • Any way to export to specified file size?

    Is there any way to export images so they are sized to fit within certain dimensions AND a specified file size? Similar to 'image processor' in Bridge/CS3 or the older Doc Brown's image processor.
    Example: (processing images for web use)
    I want to export a batch of RAW files to jpg,
    Size them to fit within 800px x 800px,
    And have them be a consistent file size of around 100kb
    (This has been possible to do in Adobe Bridge for years)
    I know I can edit Aperture's export preferences and adjust the image quality slider but final images have a range of file sizes and I find myself having to re-export some images over again after adjusting image quality to reach the desired size. This is a trial and error process each time.
    Another workaround is to export the images as .tif files, then open in Adobe Bridge and process into jpg's using 'image processor' to reach the desired size. But that effectively negates the use of Aperture in the first place for batch processing files for size. In this case, it'd be more efficient to take Aperture out of my workflow completely and do everything in Adobe Bridge.
    Has anyone found a plug-in or less tedious workaround for this?
    Cheers,
    J

    James, you said "my website provider places an upper limit on file size and dimensions per image."
    Aperture does take care of half of that, the pixel dimensions. If it was me, I would test out a few images at various levels of jpg quality (5, 6, 7 etc.) and see where both the file size ends up and how the quality looks. Then, just go with one your favorite combinations. Images with more detail will be larger and images with less will be smaller. In the long run, it should even out. If you had the ability to request a certain size, some of your images may look good and others bad. Personally, I would be more concerned with quality than a few k of pixels.

    Yes, you create in the .epub format with whatever Windows app you want to use for that and then use an Aggregator like SmashWords to upload the book to the iBookstore.  Direct upload is only possible from OS X.

  • Any way to export from iPhoto and have the file date be the photo date?

    I can't deal with iPhoto any longer. I just imported photos from the last few days and they ended up being associated with some "Event" from Jul 19, 2007. So now I have an event that spans Jul 19, 2007 to Feb 21, 2009!!! I'd like to just display, sort, view all photos in my library by date (I am meticulous about dates on all my devices) but apparently that's not possible anymore. "Events" is the worse thing to ever happen to my photo library...
    So I'd like to export them all and just use the Finder. It actually works the way I'd like. However there does not seem to be any way to export the photos so that the file creation or the file modification date is the actual date the photo was taken as shown in the information box in iPhoto. Does anyone know how to to this? Or is this just the iPhoto engineers screwing with people like me who have gotten disgusted with their product?
    Thanks!

    Yes, I know what the Finder is... The cool thing is it actually does know about the contents of the file. For example it can display thumbnails of the images contained within.
    Even better the files can be sorted any way you want, are not hidden in some odd proprietary package, can be backed up, restored at will and can easily be programmatically changed using AppleScript. The file system for an OS is generally bullet-proof and as such doesn't screw with dates like iPhoto did (the events stuff screwed with all our dates and has been a disaster for us and the 40,000 or so pictures we had in our library).
    iPhoto has just gotten too modal, too bloated, and too proprietary while not providing the basics like a way for my wife and I to have a single library for all our photos. On the other hand using just the file system and some network storage this is easy.
    For the recored most pros I consulted with have moved to the file system and Finder as their primary means of managing their photos. I'm just looking for an easy way to get my stuff out of iPhoto so I can do the same.

  • Is there any way to get the query used in discoverer from backend??

    Hi All,
    I am new to dicoverer.
    Is there any way to get the query used in discoverer from backend??
    Thanks,
    Sachin

    Hi,
    you can view the SQL from within the discoverer menu:
    in desktop: View-> SQL Inspector
    in Plus: Tools-> Show SQL
    The SQL in the DB tables is encrypted so it's a problem getting it from there.
    You can export the workbook into SQL but it is not working for every worksheet (subquery, inline pivot tables...)
    you can create a batch file to export them all using the output of this script:
    select null,null,'echo off'
    from dual
    union all
    select distinct
    qs.qs_doc_name Workbook_name,
    qs.qs_doc_details Worksheet_Name,
    'start /wait <path>\dis51usr.exe /connect '||'&p_user_name'||'/'||'&p_password'||'@'||'&p_env'||' /apps_user /apps_responsibility "&responsibility" /opendb '||
    chr(34)||qs.qs_doc_name||chr(34)||' /sheet "'||qs.qs_doc_details||'"'||' /export SQL "C:\Export Discoverer SQL\'||qs.qs_doc_name||'-'||qs.qs_doc_details||'.sql" /batch'
    from eul_us.eul5_qpp_stats qs
    where qs.qs_doc_name is not null
    --order by 1,2
    union all
    select null,null,'echo off'
    from dual
    union all
    select null,null,'exit'
    from dual

  • Any way to export with multiple presets at once?

    Hi! Is there any way to export with multiple presets at once? I do a lot of product photography, usually clients send me around 5 to 10 pieces to photograph, and from each photo requires to be exported to about 7 different formats and sizes for different uses. I have a preset for each export, but this requires multiple clicks per export, select the preset, the destination folder, etc.....   and at the end I end taking about 1 hour to just export files when if I could just select 1 time a folder of presets and the destination folder just once, then it will take no time to get all oft those exports.
    Thanks!

    Some of those other photographers have assistants they can task with doing the drudgery.
    I would describe what you're wanting scripted multiple exporting, not multiple export presets, because multiple-exports don't necessarily rely on presets, just initiating an Export and clicking on various things for each one.
    I assume you have a preset set for each of the 7 format-size-uses variations, and then most of the time consuming part is setting the Choosing the destination folder that gets mirrored to DropBox?  You can copy/paste most of the path into the Folder address area after clicking Choose.
    Without knowing what your master-photo folders and dropbox-mirror folder names and organization are it's hard to know if you've thought of all the shortcuts you might use or if things are organized in the most efficient manner.
    If you're on Windows, maybe something like AutoHotKey macros would help with what you're doing.

    AFAIK, there's no app that'll clone the Mac and PC volumes so you can restore them. System Image Utility.app or Deploy Studio for Mac and Ghost for PC are needed. See these for starters:
