Can't view 2-up spreads in Pages 5!!

This is a major mess-up. I can't view, let alone edit, my Pages document in 2-up mode since upgrading to Pages 5. If Apple's really interested in attracting pro customers, they need to hire pros as consultants during the UI and features develeopment phase. Viewing 2-up should have been a no-brainer since most publications are composed in 2-up... Pagination is done at the prepress stage, but I digress.

I completely agree. This is the FIRST thing that I noticed. I always view pages side by side. This functions more like a fancy PDF than a word processor.
For my work I generally need pages within the document to have different orientations as well. This still is not an option with Pages.
I'm not sure what the benefit of adding music and video to a word processing document is supposed to be, but at least that valuable functionality is there should I ever drop acid and need to go that route.
I really wanted to 86 MS Word and its plethora of bugs but it looks like i'm still stuck.
Exceptionally disappointed.

  • How can I view all comments in a Pages doc and print the doc with comments?

    It seems that we can no longer view comments in the margin of a document.  It is also not possible to print the document with comments visible.  Anyone else having this problem?  Pages 09 Help does not even offer an up-to-date explanation.  "Show Comments" only shows color shading.  The option “Show Comments and Changes Pane" does not even exist.  How can I get the comments to print???

    You will have to wait for Apple to fix this deficiency in a forthcoming update to Pages v5. Or, you could use Pages ’09 v4.3, if originally installed before the v5 upgrade, and located in /Applications/iWork '09.
    Otherwise, use another solution (e.g. Office for Mac 2011, LibreOffice).

  • How can I view just one spread at a time of my interactive PDF?

    Hi,
    Apologies of this has been asked before.
    I am creating an interactive PDF of a magazine, to be viewed online.
    I would like to be able to 'flip' through the spreads one spread at a time. I do not want to be able to scroll down.
    I do not want to use SWF for various reasons (viewing on ipad etc)
    When I open the magazine online it displays like this (one spread below the other) Is there a way for the spreads to be 'stacked' so I can only see one at any one time?
    Thanks
    Ben

  • Can Live View work with password protected pages?

    I tried to open a page in Live View that when opened in a regular browser would bring up a login prompt (We use Siteminder based on realms).  So the realm is protected and it should prompt me for a username and password.  But in Live View I don't get the username/password prompt, I just get a 401 Access Denied error.  Can this work with Live View?

    If You are saying it generated a huge message log, then it sounds quite unusual.
    Are there any messages like
    ....not running ....
    But better would be if You post here what You see on screen.
    Or look into
    $ORACLE_HOME/hostname/sysman/log - are there any errors in logfiles?

    Not sure I understand your problem.
    What should happen:
    1. In the Admin screen, you click on the "Sources" tab.
    2. This lists all your current sources (if any).
    3. Then you open the drop-down list next to "Source Type" and choose "Database".
    4. Click "Create"
    5. This should open a page "Create User-Defined Source: Step 1: Parameters"
    where the first parameter listed in "Database Connection String".
    Are you saying you get a blank page instead of step 5?
    What version of SES do you have? (It should be listed at the bottom of the first Admin page). If it's less than 10.1.8.2 I would strongly recommend you upgrade.

  • Can I view my Pages document like an e-Magazine?

    Hi Everyone,
    Does Pages have this function?
    If I create a document or import full screen images into Pages and view it like an e-Magazine on my iPad.
    For example, after the picture has been imported, viewing it like a single page when I hold my iPad in a portrait position is fine but say when I am down to pages 14 & 15 can I view it like a double page spread when I turn my iPad on its landscape position.
    Can this be done?
    One more thing, does Pages have a function that simulate a "flipping page" effect?
    Thank you for your help!
    mal

    No if its an original .pages document. If it was exported as word .doc files or pdf then you might be able to open it with other apps like Documents to go...
    Hope this help you.

  • Cannot view jpg files in full page mode. Contents of jpg files are enlarged so that it requires 4 pages to print one page.

    When people send me jpg files that contain a page of information, I cannot view the file in full page mode. I can only view 1 quadrant of the page at a time. If I print the jpg file, it uses 4 pieces of paper (1 quadrant per page). Others who receive this file can view it fine.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == It has always worked this way.

    There is an option for the Initial View that is "Magnification:" "Fit Page".  And this works for the initial page when the PDF is opened and it does not matter what the page size it, Acrobat/Reader will automatically fill the screen with the page. If you want the zoom type to change with each page then you need  add a page open script to each page to set the pages zoom type to "zoomtype.fitP"
    this.zoomType = zoomtype.fitP;

  • Is there a way to adjust the settings on launchpad so that when I swipe into it all the open apps/pages are fully separated (like in exposé) so that I can fully view all of them simultaneously?

    Hi Apple community,
    This is my first go at this so be kind,
    My question concerns launchpad. Coming from Snow Leopard I had been using spaces. I like to keep certain bundles of programs on separate desktops, for example all word processing related tasks in one place. I have set up the equivalent on Yosemite.
    My problem is concerns the loss of exposé. Now I know when you swipe into launch pad you get a very similar effect but the issue I am having concerns the "zoom out" effect when you swipe into launchpad. With exposé all open apps/pages etc would be fully exposed - in my case several (sometimes as many as 9 word documents). What I am running into is when I do this in / into launch pad the "pile" of docs is exposed but they are still overlapping so I can't get a good look at which is which and visually identify where I want to navigate to.
    My question is this; Is there a way to adjust the settings on launchpad so that when I swipe into it all the open apps/pages are fully separated (like in exposé) so that I can fully view all of them simultaneously? If so, instructions on how to do so would be greatly appreciated. Any alternative suggestions to doing this outside of launchpad are also welcome. If there is an exposé app for example, I would be quite willing to go that route.
    My main concern is being able to quickly (ie a touchpad gesture) expand all the open pages so I can bounce between them.
    Much thanks from a loyal Apple friend.

    Hey Eric,
    Thanks for taking the time. Unfortunately no that does not solve it. Same as swipe it will get me there and it will show separate programs spaced out. The issue I am having is that all my open word files are bunched up in a pile on top of each other. I can see the edges of each one but I want them to be separated from each other enough that I can visually identify what file is what.
    Again, thanks for trying, it is appreciated.

  • Can I view a single page of a document, previously created in Microsoft Word, in its entirety on the screen (ipad or iphone) without having to drag the page, i.e. one page per screen?

    Looking to choose an app for viewing word documents, but need to be able to view a complete page per screen (preferably full screen) without having to 'nudge' the screen 'up' to view the bottom of the page.
    Will Pages do the job?

    Not exactly.
    You will find yourself nudging the page up or down a bit. Earlier versions of iOS Pages allowed "full page view" but that really wasn't full page either. You can squeeze the view to fit, but as soon as you release it, the document springs back to normal size - it is only about a line off from what you are looking for.
    An alternative would be to view a Pages Document as a PDF and view the PDF in an app such as GoodReader - there you can see both the top and bottom edges of each page. There are many other PDF viewers available in the App Store.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can not view 24 hours data in Websphere performance page

    We configured EM 10.2.0.5 to monitor Websphere 6.1 on AIX.
    Now we can see current data in the performance page.
    But when we switch to 24 hours view, there is not any data shown in the page.
    Does EM 10.2.0.5 support viewing Websphere historical data?

    This issue is solved.
    The OMR parameter job_queue_processes is set to 0.
    It should be 10 or above.

  • How can I make some pages in a PDF display in single-page view and others in two-page (facing) view?

    Exactly as it says on the tin. I am looking to save a PDF magazine/book layout in such a way so that when opened, only the front and back covers open to the viewer in single-page mode, and the rest of the pages in two-page facing mode, without re-printing the in-between pages in booklet format  and re-inserting them into a new PDF (with the front and back covers left separate and untouched, and included as single portrait-orientation pages). This is so that individual pages can still be printed (on a physical printer, not a "virtual" one like a PDF driver), as-is without having the page next to it included, or the printouts always requiring landscape orientation (resulting with two "pages" from the PDF showing up on one sheet of paper).
    So when the PDF is opened, I want just the front and back cover to be auto-viewed by themselves, and the content (the "meat" of the document) viewed side-by-side, as though one were actually reading a "book" -- but without actually re-doing the content pages to be "fused" side-by-side. Thus creating the "illusion" that they are, in fact, in booklet form. Is this possible, to have different page-display settings for different pages/page ranges in a single PDF? If so, how is this done? If not, what would be my best course of action otherwise to achieve this "virtual" book layout, while still retaining the "physical" structure of the document and allowing individual pages to be printed by themselves rather than "fused" together?

    The best you can do practicably is the 'two up with cover page' view mode. The first page will appear singly but not centered, and to get the last page to behave it would have to be a folio sheet.
    It's theoretically possible to use JavaScript to reset the view mode as each page is changed, but it makes for a nightmare of usability (what if someone on a smaller display wants to use 'fit to width'? Not an option if JS keeps overruling it). Anything involving JS won't work on non-Adobe software or mobile devices.
    Not a programmer by any means, so I won't be using JavaScript because I wouldn't know where to begin. I was thinking more in terms of an option I could adjust in the menus or dialogues.
