Controlling the size of text when printing to PDF

In many applications you can print to Adobe PDF by selecting that as your printer.
Is there any way to control how the text size will appear when printing to PDF?  Is there any reason why a PDF created by using the print to PDF option would create different sized text on one computer as opposed to another computer?

The text size depends from the text size in the application.

    When I try to print a photo downloaded from Facebook in iPhoto, I can't get the size I specify to print correctly. Example: 5x7 prints smaller than 5x7. What do I do to solve this problem?

    Those pixel dimemsions have aspect ratios that are not the same as a 5 x7 print:
    1360 x 1360 = 1.0
    790 x 640 = 1.23
    2048 x 1366 = 1.5
    An 7 x 5 image = 1.4.
    So you'll need to crop the images to 5 x 7 before printing.  The first two images are a little light in the pixels to produce a high resolution 5 x 7 print.

  • Controlling the size of the popup window when using target

    Using the anchor tag and the target attribute (<a
    target="_blank"...>), how does one control the size of the new
    window? Or is this not possible? Thanks!

    use javascript. if you want to put it in <a> tag, then
    you can do it this way:
    assuming your page is index.cfm, then:
    <a href="index.cfm" target="_blank"
    onclick="window.open('complete
    URL','name_of_window_to_open','width=100,height=50')">test
    link</a>
    OR use other tags such as
    <span style="cursor:pointer"
    onclick="window.open('complete
    URL','name_of_window_to_open','width=100,height=50')">test
    link</span >

  • How to increase the size of text boxes in FCPX without stretching the text inside?

    How to increase the size of text boxes in FCPX without stretching the text inside?

    There are two basic Title formats — I should say Layouts — available:  Text (plain) and Paragraph.  (The plain text version usually does not appear with the blue dot controls — those generally appear for the paragraph type control.)
    If the Title is using a Paragraph layout, it's like having a mini version of Text Edit available inside FCPX. You can tell when you click on the text (when the title is selected) -- a rectangle will appear around the text like so:
    double clicking on the text will give you the bounds controls which you can use to redefine the text area without distorting the text. Once selected, notice the button that appears in the top right corner of the canvas:
    Pressing that will activate the ruler. You can right click on the ruler and add Tab Stops (left, right, center and decimal.)
    So if the title uses paragraph formatting, you can create a very WYSIWYG type of display text (use the Text inspector to alter text selections within the paragraph bounds.)

  • How can I control the size of a cell in the GridBagLayout?

    Hi,Swing Gurus
    I am developing a swing-based program using JBulider5 enterprise.
    It seems to me that the GridBagLayout is really a hard nut!
    How can I control the size of a cell in the GridBagLayout?
    It seems that I cann't control the size of a cell directly.
    But how the size of a particular cell is determined when I switch the layout manager from XYLayout to GridBagLayout?
    Thx in advance!
    Regards,
    Justine

    hi,i have not done what you are asking but there are fields like
    COLUMNWIDTH, MINSIZE, MAXGRIDSIZE, PREFEREDSIZE to which you can set the appropriate values and test for your need.hope this helped.bye martian.

  • How can I control the size of the af:InputText?

    Hi,
    How can I control the size of the 'af:InputText' on the UI, without using columns & rows attributes. Even though I am using width & height attributes, the changes are not getting reflected in the UI.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    It is inside a 'af:PanelBox'. So, the parent container also determines the size of the child? Here I need a create a 'pidgin chat window' kind of an interface with a fixed size top-level container, inside which I willl put all my components. The code looks something like this:
    <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

  • How to control the size of live data in Coherence?

    How to control the size of live data in Coherence?
    See the following statement:
    Pause times increase as the amount of live data in the heap increases. We recommend not exceeding 70% live data in your heap. This includes primary data, backup data, indexes, and application data.
    --Excerpted from http://coherence.oracle.com/display/COH35UG/Best+Practices                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

    In any Java program, it is good practice to make sure your live objects leave some room in the heap for "scratch space." Without this, you will spend too much time in GC, and, in the worst cases, run out of memory. In the general case, you can see how much live data your application requires by looking at the heap used after a full GC's. For Coherence, you should ensure that live data, as you say, is under 70% of the maximum heap size.
    Coherence provides you tools to help enforce this policy. [http://coherence.oracle.com/display/COH35UG/local-scheme] describes how to size limit your cache. By implementing an eviction policy, you can control what happens when a size limit is exceeded.

  • How to control the size of SVG images in epub files?

    There is unfortunately no support for SVG files in InDesign.
    Most of my images in jpg convertes nicely, but the small ones do not.
    Therefore I want to use SVG files which I have created in Illustrator.
    But how do I set the size in the epub file? Right now, whatever I do, they come out too big and I don't know how to control the size.
    Is there a program, like Sigil or other, that can place the image for me - I'm no html wizard you see....

  • Text getting cut off when printing to PDF from Excel

    Hello,
         I've seen a lot related to this subject but nothing that shows a real solution.
         Using Excel 2003-sp3 and Adobe Acrobat v.9 Standard, the right half of the last character in the string gets cut off. It prints from excel fine.
         It's not always the text that is the right-most on the page either. An affected PDF file is attached - note the cut off "S" on the last line (NET ASSETS OF GOVERNMENTAL ACTIVITIES).
         Any assistance is appreciated.

  • Controlling the Size of the ADR directory - 11g

    With the new ADR directory for problem diag. information such as traces, dumps, alert logs etc, what is the best way to control the size of the files system? Is there an Oracle provided tool for purging old files or do you need to write your own script?

    Nothing has ever purged the alert log in Oracle and if something did I would advise every DBA to disable it immediately.
    The XML version of the alert log will maintain itself. The text version, as stated above, works the same way it always has and hopefully always will.
    As the DBA it is your responsibility to read that file, at a minimum, once every day. While you are doing that you can archive it, drop it, and truncate it.
    If it is growing too large you likely aren't doing your job. <g>

  • Is there a way to control the size of the pictures taken by iPhone?

    The photos taken by iPhone are fairly large photos and require quite a bit of time for transfering when taking hundreds of photos.  Is there any settings in iPhone that can control the size of the pictures being taken?  Thanks

    Sorry, no. You might try looking in the App store for a third-party app that provides this functionality, but such is not natively built into the iPhone.

  • How do I control the size of my photos in iWeb?

    Hello
    I wish to ask if it is possible to control the size of a photo in iWeb when publishing photos.
    What I want is that people can press on any photo in my collection and see it in high resolution. But at the moment it is messing with my photos. Some come up tiny regardless of them being a 4MB Pixel shot, and most of them if not all of them are restricted to one size...
    Thank you...
    -Steve

    iWeb resizes photos in the following cases -
    When using the of the photograph templates where you drag and drop your pictures:
    1) Size is capped at 800px x 800px for the slide
    2) Files are compressed, usually ~120KB\
    3) New thumbs are created (the small image you click on); those tend to be 35-45KB.
    If you add a shadow, reflect or graphic option - odds are iWeb will convert your JPEG into a PNG and file size mushrooms. I've been created very compact banners, but due to PNG coversion the size has gone up by 6-8x...
    I have NOT looked into just adding a photo to page and seeing what happens to the file size. Most of my tug of war has been with slide show and trying to understand why the 300-500KB files I was using were looking so bad. Now that I know iWeb is doing, I can sort of work around it.
    It doesn't mean I'm happy. I'm going to add a gallery page with my favorites, format for roughly 1000x800 and keep the file size around 400 KB. I do all the file resizing in Photoshop CS2.
    To put all this in perspective, i have around 325 picture uploaded - most were resized to 450 KB for the web. That 146 MB just for pictures. Add another 10 MB for web content, etc. I thought ~160MB should be used up on the iDisk. Due to iWeb's compression, usage is only 70 MB for this site.
