Created a nice flyer in Pages, but printed requires CMKY format...help

I have created a flyer in pages and was about to send to the printers when i discovered they insist on CMYK format with 250dpi.
If i export the flyer from Pages to PDF it seems to create an RGB file, which is the wrong format.
does anyone know how i can sort this and get the correct dpi?

Unfortunately OSX's level 1.3 .pdf export does not support transparency, has a 72dpi rasterisation setting and muddles the PDF-X specification.
There is also no bleed, trim box, crops, slugs, spreads, spot colors etc that you normally require.
You can try and edit the ColorSync filter responsible. I have been partially successful at that but not to the 100% solution that would have me at all recommend using it.
This is the "inconvenient truth" of the "platform built for designers" that hasn't been for nearly 10 years now. Apple does not even warn its customers. Its staff and marketing in fact do exactly the opposite and encourage them to believe it is all easy and just works.
All you can do is avoid Apple's "solution".

Design option missing for Fluid Grid layouts (was:In dreamweaver CC, I created a new fluid grid page, but the options to edit the page...)

Hi, in dreamweaver CC, I created a new fluid grid page, but the options to edit the page are limited to code / split / live. The design optin is missing and I need it to move around the fluid grid to position my elements that I have created.
Thanks

Hi Raymi,
Like Ben suggested, you can vote for the feature using the link provided. From what I understand, the product team is collecting feedback on the limitations of Live View for FG layouts and improving experience on that front. It would help if you could provide a list of limitations with the current workflow.
Thanks,
Preran

Sapscript bottom text in Main, just for the last page, but printing only in the last page

I need to print a text but only for the last page in the main window.
I have tried with IF.
IF &PAGE& = &SAPSCRIPT-FORMPAGES&
BOTTOM
....TEXT
ENDBOTTOM
ENDIF
But it prints in all pages in every main window.
Can someone point me what I am doing wrong or how can I do this?
Regards,
Carlos

Hello Carlos,
the problem with this condition is the following.
The Sapscript composer cannot know during the processing of e.g. the first page,
how many pages will follow. So &SAPSCRIPT-FORMPAGES& still contains the same
value like& PAGE& and is filled with the correct values only at the very end of the processing.
(when the total number of pages is known).
So I suggest you to use the BOTTOM command in the print program,
when the processing of all item of the MAIN window is ended.
There is an other variable &NEXTPAGE&. &NEXTPAGE& will always be 0
when it reaches to last page to print. The problem with this variable that
it can not be used in a condition in MAIN window too, only in a separate page window.

Hedvig

Why is the print on my computer so HUGE? I've tried to reset pages but nothing works. Please help!?!

I opened up my computer page and the print is HUGE! I've tried to reset the pages through the control panel icon but it is all normal size. I have even zoomed out using the view button and that doesn't help except for the one page that I'm on. I don't know of any other place to go to make adjustments. Anyone have any suggestions? I would like to try some suggestions before I take it in to get fixed. Thanks for all the help! Kathy

There are a couple of add-ons that will let you set a very large default zoom level. If you check under
Tools > Add-ons > Extensions
do you have either of these?
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6965/ Default FullZoom Level]
If so, check their settings.
If you notice other anomalies, such as the toolbars becoming huge and the rest of Windows looking wrong, your Firefox shortcut might have a "compatibility" setting. If you close Firefox and right-click the shortcut (e.g., on the desktop or quick launch, whatever is relevant), choose Properties, then the Compatibility tab, try clearing any settings there. Then restart Firefox. Does that help?

I want to instal mozilla as my default page, but cannot delete NCH please help. mcintyre

''If it is listed under Extensions'', go to '''TOOLS''' then '''ADD-ONS''' then '''EXTENSIONS''' and select '''uninstall'''.
'''then close firefox and restart it'''.
to set home page read [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page here] for detailed information, if you want Mozilla firefox start page as your home page you must choose Restore to defaulti GENERAL, HOME PAGE session.

Friends need help desperate-- Second page not printing from the beginning

Hi Friends,
I have a large layout whose main-section is 8.5x20 (Width&height) which has 2 frames each having 2 repeating frames and about 20 fields in each repeating frame. When I run the report it shows the report right, but when I print, it prints only the first half since the report is long. When I change the property of the second frame of 'Page break before' to 'yes' it prints the second frame on the second page but print it at the same position as it printed on the first, and top of second page is all blank. How do I make to print from the beginning of the second page. Need your help.
Thanks
Joe.

Hello,
Most of the times, these problem are solved by "enclosing" the "Repeating frames" in frames with "Vertical Eleasticity" set to "Variable"

Help needed to create a master-detail JSP page using OAF.

I like to create a master-detail JSP page using OAF. If any help or guide will be appreciate.
- Kausik

A Master Detail Page is a basically a game between two VOs(Master and Detail mostly connected through a View Link). You can also have a look at the View Link section in the Dev guide. Page Layouts is one thing which you can take a call yourself.

I can get to website home pages but when I try to get to a logon screen, I get error msg "URL is not valid cannot open"

I cannot access certain pages such as facebook, yahoo, my bank. I sometimes get as far as their home page, but when required to say, go to mail... I get the url msg described above. Same thing when I try to login to online banking. Facebook I cannot login whatsoever. These are just 3 different sites I've tried so far.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I can't create mi Apple ID and can't connect into iTunes Store HELP PLEASE NEW USER

Hi, im new with this. I just got a new MacBook Pro 13" with IOs X Lion. Im having a big trouble with my apple ID. I cant create an ID. first was the credit card security code. Somebody told me to follow the instructions in this link to solve the problem ( iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records ) but i cant even connect to Itunes Store. PLEASE I NEED SOME HELP URGENT!!
P.D: I created an ID on apple page but it seems that doesnt work for nothing. I tried using that ID on both (Itunes an App Store) but doesnt work.

First and foremost, I agree with gdgmacguy about using the support link. That is most likely your best bet. But, I have read posts from other users that had issues with their Apple ID that you must enter your address exactly like it appears on you credit card statement. Don't abbreviate "street" or "road" - things like that - unless that matches your statement exactly. Have you moved and maybe not changed your address on your credit card statement yet...??
I am not saying that is the reason you can't create the ID, but it has been an issue for some. You could try what I suggest, but the support link is the best way to go if you can't get it accomplished on your own.
here is the support link.

except this major point i must admit the quality is quite good , but a bick lack of quality control and a customer disapointed at the end.
On the internet site it is not possible to send it back. So apple doesn't want to take in account that they mail sometimes fail, and want to satisfy their customer, because you have no other choice that accepting it.
best regards

Yes it is returnable.

Page size printing problems with custom page size I created

I have created a custom page size (very small) for printing an advertise I had to print, and now after that operation all the pages I ask to print to any printer are automatically printed in that setup, and sometimes even if I change to A4 manually, the page changes but the borders of the page still remain the old one (result i can not print). How can I cancel the custom page size I created, so that my printers restart to print automatically in A4?
thank you very much

Hi Isk8ter,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
What version of Pages are you working with? I'm assuming '09 since you reference OS X 10.7.4 above.
I've included the link to the Pages User Manual for you below.
Page 253 starts the chapter on Printing, Shareing and Exporting your document.
Pages '09 User Manual
manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/0/MA663/en_US/Pages09_UserGuide.pdf
Setting the Paper Size and Orientation
Before you print, you should make sure the paper size and orientation are set the way you want by opening the Page Setup dialog.
To set paper size and orientation:
1 Choose File > Page Setup.
2 In the Page Setup dialog, choose the printer you will use from the “Format for” popup
menu.
3 Choose a standard paper size from the Paper Size pop-up menu.
Also, see page 266 of the Pages User Manual for more specific instructions for creating a custom template for envelopes.
Hope this helps ...

I am trying to print all the PDF pages in a range of 5 pages but can only print one page at a time . . . It will print the current page, but not all or pages 1-5. Can this be overcome?

I am trying to print all the PDF pages in a range of 5 pages but can only print one page at a time . . . It will print the current page only, but not all or pages 1-5. I need to go to the next subsequent page and command to print current page; continuing with this procedure until all pages are printed one at a time. Can this be overcome?

You can use printPages(1, 5), however I need to know how you print current page.
