Can't get black background in Print project

I am using the print feature in iPhoto '08 to print a batch of photos to PDF - one photo per PDF page. The intent is to use the pdf file to give a slideshow presentation that is hosted on a Windows machine - hence pdf. This works fine.
But when I try to select a black background in the Customize window for the pages, the background still shows as white, which in turn will give a white border on all the eventually projected pictures which isn't desirable. If this isn't the right way to get the background of the pdf pages all-black, what is?
Thanks.

OK, further update.
The white border inside the black border that Print Project adds seems to be actually part of the original photo, and only occurs where the "photo" was created by )e.g.) PowerPoint - I can fix that in the original.
But outside the black border (if black is the color I select in iPhoto print) there is still a white collar which will show up when I project the picture, and I can't find a way to get rid of that. In addition, the black border crops the photos, which sometimes cuts off a bit I might want.
I seem to have experimented with all of the features in iPhoto print that seem to be relevant, and can't go any further.
Any thoughts out there?

  • I can't get my iPad to print with a HP 3520A printer

    I have bought a HP 3520a printer and having connected it and loaded the software then registered for eprint I can't get my iPad to print. Can anyone help?

    As it's not one of the printers that support AirPrint (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356), you will probably need an app - see if Kodak have their own app in the store, or there are third-party apps such as Print Central For iPad and Print n Share which might work with it. You could also do a search on here to see if anybody else has the same printer and see if they mention a particular app.

  • How can I get my ipad to print to my printer on the network

    I can not get my Ipad to print to my network printer.  The printer is an HP6500a plus officejet

    You can use HP ePrint, Apple's AirPrint, or HP ePrint Home & Biz mobile app when it comes to the 6500A Plus eAIO.
    Here are some articles pertaining to usage of these apps/methods of wireless printing that may help!
    General how to for all methods:

    You want to make sure your printer has the latest firmware installed to support airprint. You can find that software by navigating your control panel on the printer to updates.
    Once this has been performed it should be viewable as an Airprint compatible device through the ipad.
    You can also download the ePrint Home & Biz app for free from the apple catalogue and use that method as well with much the same result, as well as online management capabilities on the printer.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I get my files to print? when i go to the print page they show up a black page .

    I seem to be having trouble getting downlaoded pdfs to print off. I can view them and they look ok but then i go to the print setup and all that shows is a black page. If i try to open the saved file from the desktop it say the file is damaged or corrupt . this doesnt always happen. sometimes it's fine, so idont know what is wrong, the file , my printer , adobe reader?? can anyone help?

    HI thanks for that Pat, but doesn't seemed to have fixed it . I dont have that option on my print set up.
    this is message i get when i try to open the file.     Adobe Reader could not open 'calleen-2014-a4-form.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
    when i am viewing the document online i dont have any access to adobe reader menus or bar at the top, then i go to print from safari browser and then the page in the print box is black , no image. Any other suggestions . thanks

  • Can I get Desktop background to be plain white or black?

    I'm sure this is already in the forum(s) somewhere, but my searches haven't found exactly what I'm looking for. Is there a way to have my Desktop color just plain black (as I can do in Windows?). The "Solid Colors" in the Prefs doesn't seem to have it. I did figure out how to get white-- kind of stupid the way they have the white square "hidden" in the set of color boxes, though! But I'd like to just get a black background. I'm not afraid of using the terminal if that would do it. Thanks in advance.

    You could do this to add black to your choices:
    1. Navigate to "/Library/Desktop Pictures/Solid Colors"
    2. Double click the Solid Gray Dark.png file to open it in Preview
    3. From Tools select Image Correct and drag the Exposure all the way to the left so that the image becomes black
    4. Go File menu Save As and rename the file Sold Black and click the Save button
    When you open System Prefs Desktop you will now have Solid Black as one of the choices.
    If you have an image editing program you can add any color your little heart desires. Just create a 128x128 file, fill it with the color of your choice, then save it to the above folder as a png file.

  • Using Export for Kindle, how can I get black body text to display inverse (white on black) on Kindle

    I'm using ID 5.5 on a Vista system.
    I've created a book file with some colored fonts and anchored gif images. Basic paragraph (body text) is black. The "Export to Kindle" mobi file displays fine on Kindle for PC and Kindle Previewer.
    Kindle PC alows viewing on white, sepia or black background. Works fine on white and sepia, but when the black color mode is selected (night viewing option) the black text does not display as white text. What can I do to have the black text automatically change to white?
    While trying to find a solution, I created an epub file of the book and, using Calibre, converted it to mobi. When this mobi file is loaded into Kindle PC, the black text does automatically change to white when viewed on the black screen. I would use this method of creating the mobi, but there are several other issues that make this process unsatisfactory (other text colors don't work well, image transparency losses, etc).
    So, how can I get the black to white text thing using only Export to Kindle?

    Grayscale is probably the best (Settings>General>Accessibility>Grayscale)

    EDIT: If you would like a black color scheme, use the suggestion in the reply above.

  • Can't remove black background of camera flare in tech blue HD...

    I am modifying a template in Motion for the opening of an Industrial Video for a client.
    I have isolated the lens flare and the lens flare rectangle, but cannot seem to export without the seemingly built in black background.
    Can anyone tell me how to export the lens flare minus the black background, or where I can get or how I can create a lens flare on my own.
    This is an emergency, any help would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    SMGHD

    I did it and the background remains black. I either must be doing something wrong, or there is an inherent flaw in this program.
    Do you know where else I may be able to search/create a lens flare that will export without a black background??
    In any case, thank you for your help.

  • How can I get the "Full cycle SAP project experience"?

    Hi,experts
    I'm a beginner of PI and familar with java,now i have got good acquaintence of PI architecture and familiar with ESR and ID in PI,but now i'm confused with the development aspect of PI expert...one thing is that full cycle sap project experience is a must,but how can i get that while i just always repeating the boring creation of PI objects and do the mapping,routing tasks etc...

    Hi Rajesh,
    If you started working with new implementation project then you will get a chnace to involve in all phases like Blue printing,analysys,realization,development testing.
    Creation of obejcts in ESR or ID its not a big deal,but when you are working with complex landscape then you feel to elanr and many newthing in PI how to achieve the requirement using Writing some good UDF and using node function ...Adapter Modules or JAVA Mapping or XSLT Mappings..and many.
    When you get in to SAP PI project,when you started development first you will start analysing the functional document and then you will start preparing techincal specification,then mapping specification then development,testing..these all tasks happend in pahse by phase.after completion of development then you wl tesing the interfaces ,preparing test cases...
    we can say full lide cycle implemenattion prijects invloves above all tasks.
    Regards,
    Raj

  • Can I change black background to read it better?

    With Safari can a website that has black background and white printing be changed to white background with black print on my screen so I can read it easier?

    Elaine,
    The key combination should work unless you have setup a conflicting keyboard shortcut. Try this.
    First press and hold down control, then press and hold option, continue and hold down the command (apple key), and then press the number 8 below the function keys. Your screen should invert. Make sure that you don't have num lock on (this will often cause a problem). Also make sure you are using the normal keyboard row 8 (the one above the U and I keys), and not the number pad.
    Toggling the setting to white on black is the same as the keyboard combination (it even moves the radio button).
    You can also try using option + command + 8 (zoom on) and option + command + = (zoom in) to magnify the text.
    Good Luck,
    -j
