Changing page width with template

I'm trying to create a wedding website in iWeb using one of the templates. I don't like the narrow "Apple" look so I tried to adjust it to 1000px. I found the Page inspector/Layout box and changed the page width easily enough but it looked terrible because there didn't seem to be a way to alter the background images in the template.
After a lot of poking around online, I found instructions for duplicating and then altering an iWeb template. I went into it and changed all the images to 1000p. I thought that had solved the problem since it looks great in iWeb. But when I published it, it looks terrible. It seems like it's finding the old 700px images somewhere. Check it out: http://web.me.com/kamoore63/Wedding_Website/Home.html
Does anyone have any ideas what files or things I might have to change to have this appear correctly?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Publish the site to a folder on the desktop and check the files in there to see if the older narrow files are there. If so you probably will have to do a Publish Entire Site to totally replace all of the files on the server.
What you're experiencing is why many recommend starting with either the white or black theme and crating your own layout. Editing the theme itself can be hit or miss and the theme may not stay changed thru an subsequent update of the application.

Cannot change page size with acrobat

I am able to convert my manuscript in Mac word(2011) to adobe acrobat (XI); unfortunately the 6 X 9 " page size does not convert. I spent a few hours on the phone with adobe support and the final resolution was to upload the file to them and they converted it for me. however, they used distiller which reduced the file size and appears to have affected the many images. Does anyone have any advice? The best I have been able to glean online is work with inDesign to change page size.

Thanks.
The problem was with the paper size. In addition to change the page size I needed to change the paper size in the print option before selecting save Adobe PDF.
From Word go to File> Print
Open the Copies & Pages dropdown
Select Paper Handling
Check the Scale to fit paper size box
Open the Destination Paper Size list
Select your custom 6x9 Preset
Click the PDF button
Select either Save as PDF or Save as Adobe PDF
The unfortunate thing is that I was able to do this initially, but when I went back to replicate it adobe is creating 2 files one with my cover page and the rest to the manuscript. Luckily my initial copy was good. Thanks again for your help.

Change page attribute with JavaScript

Hi,
hope someone can help.
Is it possible to change a BSP page attribute with JavaScript??
I have a JavaScript array with some serialnumbers. After push a save button, i want to save the array data into a page attribute.
Some ideas?
Regards Anton

Hi,
The only way of passing vars from JS to page attributes is submitting them via (hidden) values in a form or via params in an URL.
Alternatively, you can try to let JS store things in a client cookie and let the BSP read that cookie.
I didn't try that out yet though.

Page Orientation Automatically Changes on Changing Page Width & Height

Problem in Crystall Report 2008
If I change the Page Width & Height of report in Page Setup, page Orientation Automatically Changes according to the width of page.
Is there any way to avoid this or this is Bug in Crystall Report 2008 ?
Is there any way to avoid this serious problem ? Programatically in .Net or In Crystall Report 2008
Designer ?
Is this a know Bug ?
Solution Please..

The issue can be divided into two problems:
(1) CR automatically change the orientation according to the page size
(2) Print result is wrong when the orientation is automatically changed
For (1), this doesn't have an effect in the design of the report, in fact, if you try the same operation in Microsoft Word 2007, you can perceive the same behavior.
For (2), this is the really crucial problem. Itu2019s not fully fixed in SP2, this is currently planned to be addressed in SP3.
There may be a possibility that you can get your hands on a patch instead of waiting for SP3. Open a support case, if you don't have a maintenance contract you can purchase a single case of support from here:
http://store.businessobjects.com/store/bobjamer/DisplayProductByTypePage&parentCategoryID=&categoryID=11522300
If support determines the issue is a product defect you can be refunded your case. Reference this escalation number in your case: ADAPT01244707

Page backgrounds with templates

I just upgraded to DW8, but I was having the same problem in
DWMX. I have a number of template based pages and now I would like
to make the page background color editable. I also have a css-based
menu from Project 7 which begins with an On Load command in the
<body> tag. In MX, when I tried to make the bg tag editable,
the menu went wonky and the page didn't displa right
Now I've trying with DW8. Page backgrounds are set as a style
and there isn't any bg command in the body. Can someone PLEASE help
me. I've fooled around with this for days, asked on several other
forums. I've looked through knowledge bases and there's lots about
changing the stuff in tables, etc., and modiying attributes, but
the tags are there to do. I can't get the bg tag in the body to
make it editable. When I try, it comes up as a style.

Change Page size with a Script

I have made artwork in Illustrator that is set up as two page spreads on 1 artboard.
I need to convert this to single page spreads.
I.e. So for half the documents, I need to set the anchor point of the document to top left and half the width of the artboard.
For the other half of the documents, I need to set anchor point to to right and half the width.
Is this possible with scripting?
I have look around online to find ways of accessing the document size and anchor point via scripting, but cannot seem to find any resources.
Thanks for any help that can be offered.
Edit: Also is it possible to create a new artboard with a script and assign it a name?

here you go, this script splits the artboard in two

Dymob 450 Turbo labelwriter changes page widths and now only prints webpages as labels

I am running 3.6.8 on a pc-based desktop.
I print using a brother 2100 laser printer.
I installed dymo 450 turbo labelwriter yesterday.
I tried to print a webpage using firefox and it has truncated the page to the width of the labelwriter.
I've gone in and changed the printer margins in firefox, have reduced the scale and it still will only print 1 1/8" X 3.5" size sections.
I'm positive that I've selected the brother printer to print, not the dymo printer.

Shiva,
As I mentioned earlier, the reason we printed on A4 is to check if it is printed properly - margins on the top, right, left etc. And it printed fine.
So when I speak about the actual problem it's on the label printer. The label printer seem to take extra margin on the top. That's exactly the issue I am facing now. I just came across the following thread which talks about a similar issue. May be I need to check the label type defined in the drivers.

Any inputs?

The old Flash SWF files that don't update in pages created with templates problem

I hate to even ask this question again because I know it's
been posted many times. I've read all the answers I could find but
I'm afraid I still need help. I'm using Dreamweaver CS3 on a Mac.
I've gone in preferences and unchecked "insert using browser-safe
scripts" and "Convert tags" and I've tried to make my paths to the
SWF files relative to the site root but I just can't get it to
work.
There are about three articles on what the Site Root path can
be used for and why it's good or bad. I've read all those and I
guess I'm dense because I just can't figure it out. I select site
root from the "relative to" drop down menu and it makes no
difference whatsoever. I look at the code and it seems OK. This is
what it looks like:
<param name="movie"
value="/public/Images/Regional_Strength/Americas/Americas map.swf"
/>
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed
src="/public/Images/Regional_Strength/Americas/Americas map.swf"
quality="high" pluginspage=
There are no ... before the directories and that's what it's
supposed to look like. The files still don't show. Part of me has
to wonder how the heck the html file would know which /image
directory the swf file is in because this particular site is one of
many self-contained site directories that sit in my public folder,
each site has it's own image directory. I thought maybe I'm
supposed to put the SWF files in the "image" directory right in the
first level of the public directory. I moved the files in there
changed the code to:
<param name="movie" value="/public/Images/Americas
map.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed src="/public/Images/Americas map.swf"
quality="high" pluginspage=
It doesn't work. Like I said, after reading the three or so
articles about the site root on the Adobe Help pages, I still don't
understand. I'd appreciate someone clarifying this for me.
Thanks

> <param name="movie" value="/public/Images/Americas
map.swf" />
As a random educated guess, Is your local site folder defined
to the correct
folder? If it isn't, then dw can't make correct site root
relative paths.
Jumping to this from seeing the /public/ folder in the above
path.
Define the local site folder to the folder that directly
contains the site's
homepage index file.
Use the "host directory" line in the remote site info to
correct for any
required subfolder in the ftp setup. If public files need to
be placed in a
subfolder on the remote named public or public_html or htdocs
or www or
similar, put that folder name into the "host directory" line.
Also- to avoid problems adopt a file and folder naming
convention that
doesn't cause you to tear your hair out.
Americas map.swf
There is NO such thing as a blank space in a url. So don't
use blank spaces
in file or folder names.
A conservative naming convention would be to use only
a-->z and 0-->9 and
the _underscore. No blank spaces, no punctuation, no mixed
case.
Right-click on the file or folder in the dw Files Panel and
pick rename.

Change stroke width with AS3?

So, I have a movie clip which consists of a filled vector circle with a stroke. Is it possible to increase/decrease the stroke to a specific thickness in pixels with actionscript whilst the swf is playing?
Thanks
T

If you draw a circle dynamically using graphics API then its possible to chage the stroke by using lineStyle method.
But if that circle has already been drawn and placed in the stage, I don't think you can change it's stroke.
Can I ask, why don't you draw it dynamically using actionscript. It's so easy.
//make sure you import relavent apis
import flash.display.LineScaleMode;
import flash.display.CapsStyle;
import flash.display.JointStyle;
public var _cricleObj            :Sprite;
public var _lineSize            :Number    = 1;
//Now draw your circle
_cricleObj = new Sprite();
_cricleObj.graphics.lineStyle(_lineSize, 0xFFFF00, 1, false, LineScaleMode.VERTICAL, CapsStyle.NONE, JointStyle.MITER, 3);
_cricleObj.graphics.beginFill(0xFF,1);
_cricleObj.graphics.drawCircle(0,0,50);
_cricleObj.graphics.endFill();
_cricleObj.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, reDrawCircle);
public function reDrawCircle(e:Event):void
            _lineSize +=1;
            _cricleObj.graphics.clear();
            _cricleObj.graphics.lineStyle(_lineSize, 0xFFFF00, 1, false, LineScaleMode.VERTICAL, CapsStyle.NONE, JointStyle.MITER, 3);
            _cricleObj.graphics.beginFill(0xFF,1);
            _cricleObj.graphics.drawCircle(0,0,50);
            _cricleObj.graphics.endFill();
thats all.

Auto adjustment of page orientation causes printing issues with documents that have a page width greater than its page height.

Hi,
Since an upgrade from Word 2003 to Word 2010, we are experiencing printing issues with certain
documents that have a page width greater than its page height.
In Word 2003, it was no problem to set the page width greater than the page height while setting the page orientation to "portrait".
In Word 2010, this seems impossible: despite leaving the page orientation to "portrait", if one changes the page width/height as stated,
Word 2010 automatically adjusts the orientation to "landscape". Resetting the orientation to "portrait" will flip the page's width/heigth settings.
This behaviour causes printing problems: the page prints out 90° rotated.
I do not believe this is a printer driver issue: I tried several different printer drivers, and all give the same (bad) result. Setting the printer driver's page orientation settings (before printing) makes no difference, as
Word 2010 seems to force the page orientation settings.
Inserting the documents 90° rotated is not an option, since it causes problems with the printing margins.
This is very annoying, since we have to print official documents of a municipality (driver's licences).
Is there a workaround for this issue?

Cannot adjust page width to fit to screen size on some PCs with IE

Hello friends, I am using APEX 4.0 and IE9 on different Windows 7 PCs . The page will go way off the screen to the right on one PC, and fits nicely inside the screen on another PC. This problem does not occur in Firefox on any PC. I have used Firebug to try to isolate the template or css settings. Using Theme_4, I have a breadcrumb region and 4 reports regions. One of the reports regions is in column 1 and 3 regions are in column 2. Display point is Page Template Body (3. Items above region content) for all the reports regions. The CSS is #themes/theme_4/css/theme_4_0.css. The template is One Level Tabs (Right Sidebar/Table Based). I tried various width="" using px and % under Edit Page Template-Definition-Body (see below). I tried style="width:800px" within the <div> tags. I have tried various other changes to theme_4_0.css and apex_4_0.css with no visible change to the page width on the obstinate PCs. I reset IE setting and deleted all personal settings on both PCs with no changes to either one, one fits on the screen and the other does not. The issue is that most of our users use IE so most of them will have to live with using the horizontal scroll bar to see the regions in column 2, unless we switch them all to Firefox (not a bad option, except that option works for our users only, we have no control over external browsers). I have tried suggestions from many discussion threads, as this problem has bothered us for quite some time. I know this is an IE problem, but any help is appreciated. Thank you.
"|" represents screen size and "-" is the regions/content for the "bad" PCs.

The "good" PCs look like this:

I think your concerns are very reasonable. But I want to sort of refocus things a little bit for you here... it's not really a PC vs Mac issue... Rather, it's specifically an Internet Explorer issue. And you might say that this is synonymous...still 98% of the world uses IE, and you would be correct. Hopefully when the final version of IE7 comes out, it will finally embrace some of the modern day OPEN web standards without trying to make too many standards of its own (this is Microsoft, though).
Anyways, in the meantime, I guess we all try to make the best of it. It's very easy to conclude that iWeb is not a viable tool for you, as long as you have something else to "fall back" on. With my limited knowledge of all things HTML, I have no such luxury. Instead, I have put up a notice on my site for IE users only that the site might not look its best on IE....this notice also encourages IE users to use FireFox, which is very much like Safari and will in 99% of cases display your iWeb pages just like you expect. You can see how I've done this here (but you have to surf from IE)... http://blog.dirtdoog.com
I think many people in the PC world understand the limitations of IE. Certainly many don't, but you have to consider your likely audience, I guess. I believe that your website content is king. If your content is compelling enough to your intended audience, they will jump through hoops to see it in its full glory....but you have to make them aware of the problem. That's why I have chosen to take the path that I have taken.
Let me know what you think.

Changes in edited & saved template do not show up in page 2 or 3 of letter.

I am new to Pages '09. I chose a template for a "Traditional Letter". It immediately picked up my name (from the computer registration, I think), as the header read "Geraldine's Laptop Dwyer". I edited that to read, "Geraldine Dwyer", added my phone & fax numbers and my address at the bottom. Then I saved it to "My templates".
Next time I opened this template - those changes were saved and showed up, but when I wrote a letter and it spilled onto the second page - the original header created by the app. - "Geraldine Laptop Dwyer"is on the top of the second page (& 3rd and 4th pages too). How can I have "my" information on all the pages that I edit from an Apple template, or maybe I cannot?
Geraldine Dwyer

Geraldine,
There are some oddities in Pages' methods.
What you did was save the changed template which had been altered on the page but you also needed to "capture" and save the Layout or Section over the existing one in the document using the same name to replace it.
I will walk you through making your own version of a template.
1 Open a new document using the template you wish to customise.
2 Don't change anything yet, but open every section from the Sections pull down menu so you have a sequence of pages each with a page of a different section design.
3 Make Master Objects selectable if they are not.  Change each Section to your liking.
4 +Menu > View > Page Thumbnails+
5 Select first Thumbnail in sidebar  +Menu > Format > Advanced > Capture Pages… > Name : Type exactly the same name as the section > It will ask you if you want to replace the existing section > Replace+
6 Repeat this for each section until you have replaced them all.
7 +Menu > File > Save as Template… > Save with a New Name+
8 +Menu > File > New from Templates > My Templates > Choose your New Name template+
You now have a document customised to your design.

I'm seeing a hot pink background (which is my browser default
- so that I do
remember to declare a background color). You need to add:
body { background-color: white;} to your stylesheet, or into
the imbedded
styles on your page.
In Firefox, the very top black section, #headertop is hidden
behind the
header image.

I can see the header image stretching right across the page..
so not sure
