Converting and combining files to scale

I am trying to combine files for a pattern I am selling. The converter correctly sizes the word document to 8.5 x 11" but the pattern pieces with the drawings show up as much larger, like 11 x 15", so that when you try to print them to scale (100%) , it cuts off part of the pattern pieces. How can I fix this issue? I have already tried 4 times, and I have sold three of the patterns, not knowing it was doing this, so I have to correct it so I can resend the corrected pattern to the buyers!!! Help!!

Hi,
You can save these files in a FMT "text format" using menu
File ---> Administration -->Convert,
but The FMT format is not designed to be readable, then I have no idea what is the purpose of this file exists.
>>What is the best way to control version of this files on a CVS server ?
Version control ? For what ? You cannot read the contents of this file (FMT).
For me, FMT and FMB files as the same thing when you perform a import on your CVS server, maybe FMB is better, because is smaller then FMT.
Cheers

  • Convert and combine many image files into a pdf file?

    I have about 250 png and jpg files in a directory, and would like to convert and combine them into a pdf file.
    I wonder what steps to do that in Acrobat Adobe 9 in Windows?
    Requirements are:
    They are named in the order of 0000.png, 0001.jpg, ..., 0250.png, in which I would like to create the pages of the resulting pdf file.
    Also there may be some numbers (such as neither 0010.png nor 0010.jpg exists) missing, but still I would like the images be in the same order after creation of a pdf file.
    I would like the pages in the resulting pdf file look to have the same or similar size.
    But the numbers of pixels of the image files are different. Some are about 2000 x 3500 pixels, and some are about 800 x 1200 pixels.
    I also would like to have control of the spatial resolution such as the dpi parameter
    I also would like to OCR the pdf file (the images are scanned raster images).
    I would like the resulting pdf file to take reasonable storage size on my disk.

    You don't say what version of Acrobat you are using, but I expect you could do it with Acrobat XI's Actions feature. Maybe even in 10.0. Since this is an enterprise deployment forum, I suggest you find a better forum and ask about Actions and Batch Processing.

  • Acrobat 9 - Convert and Combine

    I have a folder structure (thousands of folders) with multiple layers of subfolders.  I am trying to convert and combine all TIFF files in each subfolder to one PDF file.  I want that PDF file to be located in the original file structure.  In other words, each subfolder should have one PDF that is the combination of all TIFF files in that folder.
    I know I can convert all TIFF files by using the batch processing feature.  That feature will locate the new PDF files in the original file location, which is what I want.  Is Acrobat able to perform the second part of my need, to then combine those PDFs by subfolder?  The "Combine supported files in Acrobat" feature doesn't seem to help since it would have to be run on each folder separately.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Instead of hiring an expensive programmer, just download some non-adobe PDF program like image2pdf and use a Windows batch file:
    FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN ('DIR /B /AD /S *.*') DO image2pdf -i "%%G\*.TIF" -o "%%G\output.pdf" "%%G"
    pause
    Place the batch file in a directory as high up as you want to go. So say you have:
    -top level
    --scans L1
    ---scans L2
    ----your files here
    --scans L1
    ---scans L2
    ----your files here
    --scans L1
    ---scans L2
    ----your files here
    Place that batch file in the top level folder and it will go through and create PDF files for you. My method isn't perfect - it's difficult to dynamically name every PDF file and you're going to get an output.pdf file in every folder, regardless of whether or not there are files in it...but at the most basic raw level, it works and can save tons of time.

  • What is the difference between the Create PDF and Combined Files Package as they are very similar.

    They are both described the same and are the same cost, although the combined file package has the benefit of merging files as well

    Hi preacher3,
    Time Machine will back up absolutely everything on your Mac and should restore this in place, this includes all applications and preferences as well as documents. Provided you've let Time Machine do a full backup you should be fine with this.
    One of the advantages of using Time Machine apart from it being really simple to set up is that it's so easy to restore, once you've restored from a Time Machine backup you'll find your Mac back in pretty much the same state with apps and files as it was at the time of the last backup.
    See All about Time Machine for some great tips and to learn more
    I hope this helps

  • Cannot Convert and Combine Word 2010 docs to PDF Binder

    Have Acrobat Pro 9.4 Extended.  This worked fine with Word 2007, but I upgraded to Word 2010.  Now, when I add files and press on combine button it opens Word and asks me to save the first file to a pdf in Word, not in Acrobat.  Then, the conversion in Acrobat starts but hangs up until the program stops responding.  The binder that holds the combined and converted word docs to pdf never occurs.  Maybe the settings are wrong.  Or is there an issue with Office 2010?  I did a repair of Acrobat, but it has not helped.  Any help appreciated.

    Do you see the same issue with PDF Maker also ? I would recomend to update the Acrobat to the latest version : http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/update-patch-acrobat-reader-10.html

  • I just purchased a Mac.  I have 30-40gb if music on my external hard drive from my PC.  Most of the files are .wma files.  Is there a way to just plug up the external hard drive, convert, and upload files to itunes?

    Hello,
    I just received my Mac and I am trying to see if there is an easy way to convert all my music files from my external harddrive on my PC to iTunes.  Most, if not all, the files are in .wma format.  Does anyone know if I am able to connect my external harddrive, convert the files, and add them to iTunes?

    If they don't contain DRM, use a program such as Switch. If they do, you can't.

  • How do I get saved and combined files to display in linear format?

    Thanks

    Thank You! Rave. I did not know this was being created from the outlook device. What my problem is that I converted 2000 files to Adobe PDF and that was when I realized they were not in the Outlook format. I tried putting them back in the e-mail files in a folder and now they are not recognized as e-mails. Any suggestions on how to get them organized?

  • PDF converter and combine PDF pages are blank?

    I signed in to Adobe and tried to use the PDF converter, but the page is blank.  The combine PDF page is blank also.  What happened?  I can see the other tabs, but these two are blank.  Need to know what is going on. Thanks.

    Now it shows up after 30 minutes of trying. 

  • Comparing count and combined file sizes of specific file types in target folder and subfolders

    Hi all,
    I have a script that I use to delete files with a certain file extension in a folder and its subfolders. I would like to enhance to the script by counting the total number of files and their combined size in MB that the script is deleting and use this information
    in a popup where a message will say something like "X No. Files deleted totalling YMB
    The existing script so far is:
    get-childitem  -include *.****.rfa -recurse | foreach ($_) {remove-item $_.fullname}
    Can any advise what I need to add as I'm quite new to powershell.
    Thanks

    So you do not know how to write a simple output statement.  I think you need to start here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/scriptcenter/dd793612.aspx
    Not specifically within Powershell no, like I said I only started looking at it this week as an alternative to VBS.
    Nothing is being declared.  You need to learn the basics of PowerShell.  We cannot teach you one line at a time.
    Really? So the author of
    this website is talking rubbish is he? ("Once data is assigned to a PowerShell variable, it’s automatically declared.")
    I never asked for line-by-line hand holding nor am I someone who wants others to write the entire code for me. Examples of previous scripts that perform similar or partial operations would have been a good way to guide a new user unfamiliar to this topic.
    Additionally posting modified(incorrect) and unfinished script examples without clearly stating what your code is doing nor that additional lines of code need to be added before the script will operate as outlined in the original post is confusing to someone
    with 0 experience in this area.
    On forums I frequent that are relevant to subjects which I have good experience with, whenever I respond to a genuine query of that has an example of what they are trying to create/modify, I will happily provide a full example and/or explain what I
    have done so the OP understands exactly what I did to achieve their request in my example. For someone with your points tally (and likely a respected poster amongst your peers on this site) responding with what is essentially "RFTM Noob" I trust you can understand
    is somewhat disappointing.

  • Working with duplicates and combining files

    I'm new and trying to learn how to properly use Itunes. I am currently importing all my cd's onto an external drive (F Drive). Apparently after reboots ITunes sometimes imported the songs on the default C drive and not the F drive(which I did not realize until now). Now I know to change it back to the F drive when I reboot. My problem is that somehow I have copies of some of the albums on my C drive and some on the F drive as well as duplicates on both. Not sure what I did to get the duplicates. Here is my problem. For example, I have a folder of Brad Paisley on C drive that contains Mudd on the Tires, Time Well Wasted and Who Needs Pictures. On the F drive it only has Mudd on the Tires and Brad Paisley II. So I have one duplicate and one that wasn't on my C drive. I have a lot of folders in this manner. How do I go about getting ITunes to copy only the folders I need to transfer to the F drive? I did a try a couple and ITunes copied them and duplicated so many songs so now I have to go through them and delete them dups (which are hundreds!). I also tried to just drag them from C to F drive but it of course copies over the Brad Paisley folder and you lose some of the albums depending on which folder you pasted over. I was manually going through each folder and comparing them and dragging just the album to the F folder that was missing on the C drive. But this is taking forever. Is there a quicker way? Also is there a quick way to delete all the duplicates? And one more question, the F drive has most of my song with star ratings but the C drive does not have any star ratings. Is there a way to import and/or transfer the music without losing the star ratings I have? I'm working with about 10,000 songs so that is why these are such enormous tasks.
    Sorry for the long explination. I just wanted to make sure I was being clear on my question. I hope there is an easier way and that someone will share their knowledge. Thanks so much.
    P.S. Is there a book you suggest that will help me or is it best just to ask questions as they come up here? Thanks again.

  • Combine files to PDF and selecting files one at a time - Adobe CreatePDF online application

    Are you able to select up to 10 files at one time through the "select files" browser window?  The instructions at https://www.acrobat.com/createpdf/en/merge-combine-pdf-files-online.html seem to indicate that you are able to select up to 10 items and then convert and combine. 
    "1 Sign in to your CreatePDF account online
    2 Click on Combine files to PDF, then Select Files
    3 Choose one or more files to merge into a single PDF
    4 Click Open"
    At this point I am only able to select files 1 at a time, which means steps 3 and 4 repeat up to 10 times if you are combining the maximum 10 files at once.  I have tried using shift select and ctrl select to no avail.
    Thank you for any help on this issue.

    I think I found my answer at a different set of instuctions at http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat-com/kb/using-createpdf.html.  This set of instructions clearly indicates that files will be selected 1 at a time.
    Click Combine Files To PDF.
    Click Select Files.
    Select one of the files that you want to combine.
    Click Open.
    Click Add Files and select additional files to combine. Click Open."
    If anyone has any ideas on how to more quickly combine files, any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Word documents won't convert when combining

    Similar to a problem from another post, Word documents will not convert when combining files. I’m only combining a few files at a time—when placed first, the Word document will stall at 10% converted. When placed anywhere else, it skips with an error saying it's unable to open the file, "please check to see if [ I ] have read permission for the...file." (It's my computer; who do I have to ask?) Other files convert/combine just fine (.png, jpeg’s.) I’m using a 32 bit version of XP and I do have the pdf converter from Word installed as an add in. Very annoying problem. Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    If you upgrade word the documents switch from .doc to .docx
