Change the page in a placed PDF?

Is there an easy way to change the page in a placed PDF? Something along the lines of Object Layer Options?
Thanks.

We can fix this with scripting! Easy oneline script [Edit: break it two 2 lines so you don't get a scrollbar in the forum]:
var g; (g=app.selection[0].graphics[0]).
    place(g.itemLink.filePath, true);
save as replace.jsx and assign it a key in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts (Scripts Area).
It assumes a frame (rectangle) is currently selected, and re-places the file associated with it, while showing the options dialog box (2nd argument to place()).

  • How do you can change the page size of a pdf in MAC?  I have multiple pdf documents of different sizes that I want to combine.

    Help.  How do I change the page size of a pdf in MAC?  I have multiple pdf documents in varying sizes I would like to combine and print.

    There's no real need to do that. A PDF can have pages of different sizes.

  • How can I change the page size of a pdf so i can view it on my iphone more clearly?

    How can I change the page size of a pdf so i can view it on my iphone more clearly?

    I think there may be more to this question than you say.
    If your PDF page is say, 8 x 12 inches, and you found a way to scale it to 25%, changing it to 2 x 3 inch, shrinking everything on the page to quarter size - wouldn't it look exactly the same on the iPhone? It's just going to be the same as zooming.
    Or were you hoping for something more like in Word, where changing the page size keeps everything the same size and spreads it over more pages? That isn't something you can do.

  • Is it possible to change the page of a linked PDF without relinking?

    Is it possible to change the page of a linked PDF without relinking and going through the import options?
    I'm trying to import seveeral pages of the same PDF. The process would be quickest if I could import it once, then duplicate the image box a number of times, then just change the page number each image box is linking to.
    At the moment I'm having to relink (or place), then go through Import Options, then choose the page - it's a long process that feels like it should be quicker.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    The short answer is no, that's not possible, but it IS possible to import multiple pages at one time.
    My favorite script for this is from Scott Zanelli: InDesignSecrets » Blog Archive » Zanelli Releases MultiPageImporter for Importing both PDF and INDD Files, but there's also a sample script included with ID.

  • How do I change the page size of a pdf?

    I'm trying to send a manuscript to a printing service in another city. It was produced using Microsoft Publisher. In Acrobat Pro I changed the page size from the default (8 1/2" x 11") to the size of my finished document --- 7.8" x 10". Yet when I send the manuscript to the printer it's still the larger size. I've tried right-clicking on the pdf printer and changing to a close approximation (7.5" by 10"), which is listed as one of the available alternatives, but it won't let me change it. What am I doing wrong?

    There's no real need to do that. A PDF can have pages of different sizes.

  • How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?

    How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?
    I scanned a 50-page document with an HP 5610xi All-In-One using the software that comes with it: HP Scan Pro. Though the physical document has standard 8.5" x 11" pages, the PDF resulting from scanning has page size set to 35.42 × 48.67 inches (according to Preview's "Tools > Inspector". I want to resize the pages to 8.5" x 11". Shouldn't Preview be able to do that with "Tools > Adjust Size..."? When I try, the menu option is grey so I can't select it.
    I'm using Preview Version 4.2.

    Thanks for the insight; that explains why it's the wrong size. I selected 300dpi scanning (which is the default, actually), but HP Scan Pro evidently created a PDF with 72dpi indicated. I want it fixed because I want to distribute the file to other people and have them able to print or display it without problems.
    I still don't know why Preview won't let me change it, but your question about whether I wanted to print it did lead me to find a workaround: "File > Print" and "Save as PDF..." saved it with the correct page size.

  • How can I change the margins on a fillable PDF

    I am looking to change the margins on a fillable PDF that is required by the CRA because page 2 of 10 is blank. If I were to print it and send it off with the blank page it will get sent back as 'not completed properly'
    Any ideas on how to get rid of the blank page???

    Oh I understand that it is free. I just don't understand why a fillable document that is required by a government agency such as the CRA has a blank page in it and the program they insist you use to fill out the form cannot remove that blank page. That's where my annoyance lies.

  • Change the Page Title for all the pages when viewing the Reports in Bi Publisher

    Hello ,
    I have a requirement for changing the Page Title for all the report displayed pages on the browser window.

    As far as I know, answer is NO.
    it's very simple answer  Manikandan-S-Oracle
    for 1210326 's requirements there are some places for changes of property "title" and in some pages "title" can be different
    "one place or option for changing" does not exist imho ( may be i'm wrong )
    so you can change places for your needs but not sure what it's adequate
    as example
    ...wls\user_projects\applications\bipdomain\xmlpserver\catalog\navigator.jsp  -->  find <title>
    it changes title in http://somehost:7001/xmlpserver/servlet/catalog
    ... wls\user_projects\applications\bipdomain\xmlpserver\home\home.jsp  -->  find <title>
    it changes title in http://somehost:7001/xmlpserver/servlet/home

  • Every time I create a button it moves to the centre of the page when outputing to pdf

    every time I create a button it moves to the centre of the page when outputting to pdf
    I have done a load of tests and it does it every time
    I imported a jpg image as my button. Converted it to a button by Interactive/convert button. Even before I setup all the options in the buttons panel it moves. So for instance I have the button in the bottom RHS in Indesign. Then make a interactive pdf and its in the centre of the page. I have even converted the image back to an object and it goes back to in proper position.
    I have tried this in several documents, starting from scratch and using different images and also drawn a button. I have also used the buttons from the button library
    In previous version of Indesign I have never uncounted this problem.

    Can anyone help this has not be resolved and I have several annual reports to get out urgently. Its happening to all documents!

    Question already asked and answered several times.
    It's a bug striking in long documents.
    Select a word somewhere higher in the page then use the arrows to reach the wanted insertion point.

  • How do you change the page margins?

    Hi There,
    Since upgrading to Yosemite, I can't figure out how to change the page margins. If you look at the image below, I am trying to extend all of the margins so I can fit more text in. Thank you so much for your help!

    Hi,
    Thank you for your reply.
    I do not see where I click "toolbar" or "Document", etc. I even typed "adjust document" and "header/Footer margins" into the help box and I couldn't find it. Are you able to tell me how to do it starting from "File", "Edit", "Insert", "Format", etc? Or do I need to click on something with the new inspector. The option are "Style", "Layout" and "More". Thank you so much!

  • Is there any way to make the page size of a PDF document smaller?  I'm at 30"x36" and want 8.5"x11"

    Is there any way to make the page size of a PDF document smaller?  I'm at 30"x36" and want 8.5"x11"

    The quickest way is to print to a new PDF and use shrink to fit. Be sure you set the paper size in the printer properties. Normally this is not recommended, but it is a quick approach. You would loss any bookmarks and other markup with the print.

  • How to change the page size of a replicated container?

    Hi, I would like to change the page size of dbxml 2.3.10.10 containers in a replicated environment.
    This is what I tried so far:
    1) dbxml_dump/dbxml_load (bot utils not usable in a replicated environment)
    2) db_dump/db_load. db_dump works fine. db_load seems to work fine, since it succesfully creates a database/container from a dump file. But it does not correctly initialise the internal dbxml structures since the database/container can not be opened, although getContainers works...
    Besides writing my own dump/load clients, is there any other option to change the page size of an existing container?
    Regards,
    Jacobus Geluk

    Hi George,
    dbxml_dump seems to work fine, but ends with this message:
    DATA=END
    dbxml_dump: Non-replication DB_ENV handle attempting to modify a replicated environment
    dbxml_dump: dump <container name>.dbxml: Error: Unexpected error opening Configuration DB
    dbxml_load more or less has the same error...
    I am currently writing a little Java program that simply dumps all XML documents of all containers in a directory structure...
    That would work as long as the file system can handle it...
    I suppose dbxml_dump/load could be made to work quite easily by just copying their sources and specifiying the replication settings...
    All utilities that cause log activity, that currently do not support replicated environments, should support replicated environments that simply use the default replication transport mechanism. With some additional command line options like --sites it would work...
    Regards,
    Jacobus
