Creating a Custom Slide Size

I am trying to create a custom slide size: I figure there is a simple way to do so, but I cannot find it.
Any advise?
Thanks in advance!
Matt

In the Document Inspector, there is a dropdown menu that sets the slide size, and one of the options is "Custom slide size...".

  • Where did "custom slide size" go in Keynote 6?

    I just upgraded to Maverick, and the new Keynote, but can't find the option to change my slide size. Used to be inside the old inspector, under document, custom slide size. Help, where'd it go?

    Click the "setup" cog on the upper right.
    and, towards the bottom, you'll see "Slide Size".

  • Creating a custom page size in Access 2014

    In an previous version of Access 2003 I created a report with a custom page size of 5"x4".  Now I am using Access 2013 and I no longer can run that report because of the custom page size.  How do I add the custom page size to the
    new version of Access?

    Hi,
    Your required could be done via VBA coding. We cannot custom page size directly in Access 2013.
    Please see the sample code with following links:

  • Creating a custom page size not working

    Hi,
    I have Pages 3.0.2 and I wanted to create an PDF for an ad that our playgroup wants to submit in a local paper. The ad needs to be 10cm x 6.2cm so I went to the Inspector dialog and the Document tab and then selected Page Setup. In the new dialog I selected Manage Custom Sizes under the Paper Size drop down and then created a new size by clicking on the + icon. This allowed me to specify a Page size of 10cm width and 6.2cm height. I selected user defined printer margins and entered 0.25 for all margins. I set a name for the page size as 100by62Ad.
    All good so far, but now when I select this new custom size in the Page Size drop down I can see the page size and underneath the drop down it says 10 by 6.2cm and click on OK the Document Inspector flashes then shows the A4 sizes again.
    Nothing I do seems to allow me to select the new custom size. I can select the other page sizes such as DL fine and see the new page size in the window, but my new custom size refuses to display. I have tried closing down Pages and coming back in but get the same thing. I then tried downloading another program, in this case one called "Stone Create", and selected the custom page size in that program and it worked fine. I got a small 10cm x 6.2cm document to work with.
    This seems to be a bit of a bug. Has anyone else managed to work with custom page sizes?
    Thanks for any assistance.

    Thanks Peggy,
    I tried deleting the preference file and restarting Pages but I still have the same problem with the custom page size. When I start Pages I am presented with a bunch of templates so I choose Blank then I go through my procedure to select the custom page size that I created and always end up back at an A4 document.
    I have used the demo version of Stone Create to do what I needed to do with the small page size (ie. create a small ad) but it is a pain that I paid for Pages and now will need to buy something like Stone Create to do what I need. Although, that said, having used Stone Create for this little ad I must say that for the price it seems like a pretty decent program that will do a whole lot of the desktop publishing type of functions without the rather steep prices of the Adobe products. I kind of wish I had bought this program instead of Pages now.
    Cheers,
    Graham

  • Custom Slide Size!!!

    Hi,
    I'm having trouble resizing a slide, and I was wondering if someone could help?
    I am using a custom size, and got it down to 1500 X 200, I need it to be 1500 X 125, but it won't let me reduce the height to that setting. Can anyone tell me why, and is there a way to do this?
    Thank you,
    Todd

    It appears that 200 pixels is the smallest that either dimension can be. If you need something that size, you would probably be better off using a graphics app. That said, if you are running Leopard, you can create your slide at 1500 X 200, then use the utility Grab.app to select a 1500 X 125 section of the slide.
    This presumes that you are just creating a graphic, and don't need to run a slideshow. As far as I know, there is no way to present slides smaller than 200 pixels on any side.

  • Can no longer create custom page size for printing to PDF?

    When printing from FrameMaker to PDF in Windows, I used to be able to create a custom page size by clicking on the Add button that appeared to the right of the Adobe PDF Page Size window, in the Adobe PDF Document Properties dialog box. With Frame 9, that button no longer appears; in fact, the whole dialog box is cut off just inside the edge of the entry windows. Do I need to set something? Thanks for any help you can offer. - Cindy Shaler

    Cindy,
    I am not sure to what dialog boxes you are referring.
    In the PDF Setup dialog box (in FrameMaker's Print dialog or Save as PDF dialog), the Settings tab displays two fields to change the width and height of the paper. I tried entering odd values, and the resulting PDF had the entered size. I see no Add button nor is the dialog box cut off.
    Maybe I am not looking at the correct boxes.

  • 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

  • 3 by 1 slide size

    I would like to have my slide 3 times as wide as it is high. There is not a custom size setting and no 3 by 1 equivalent in my options when starting a new slide show. How do I do this?

    After you create a slide show, in the Document Inspector, under the Slide Size popup, select "Custom Slide Size…" and enter your desired slide size.

  • HP Officejet Pro 8100 ePrinter & custom paper sizes

    Have found all the helpful instructions about creating new custom paper sizes in Windows 7. But am complete novice & need to buy a printer for a charity. Settled on this model because of good reviews but most work will be 1 document of custom paper size. Need to know if the instructions given are fail-proof!! (Before i spend their money.)
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hello invqn,
       after having performed some detailed research, as well as installing the Pro 8100 (and other products) on a Windows 7 system, we determined the Pro 8100 doesn't support Custom Sizes:  that was by design and intent.
       Note that one of our engineer's proposed using a different set of drivers (from an older device) as a potential work-around, but this is unproven and may serve to limit your overall functionality of the device.
       However, we did confirm that a newer device that is currently out, the HP Officejet Pro 8610 (or 8620 or 8630) e-All-in-One, DOES support custom sizes; these are multi-function printers.
        Using the instructions in the link you sent, you can create new Forms with custom sizes and it will show up in the Printer Properties for you to use/select. It supports custom sizes from 3.00 x 5.00 in. to 8.50 x 14.00 in. 
       Our intent is only to provide information on what we know; you might take a moment and perhaps see if an HP Marketing representative might be able to give you more information, but that's what we have.
       We hope this helps....

  • Z3200 won't print to custom page size

    Hello,
    I've created a banner that is 23"w x 82"h (in CorelDraw Suite 4).  The page setup of the Corel file is 23" w x 82"h.  I've been trying to print it on the z3200 designjet, but have had no luck.  I created several custom page sizes (23" x 82", 24" x 85", 24" x 82") using both the "Printer Properties" dialogue within CorelDraw as well as adding a "Form" in the "Print Server Properties", none of them work.  I've set the correct paper (24" wide HP Bright White Bond, feeding from the roller) on  the actual printer itself, and in the Printer Properties.
    I've played around with all of the different settings that I can and sometimes see the following error message:
    [1/1]Paper size selected (width:23.00 inches, height: 82.00 inches) is larger than loaded paper (width: 24 inches).  Please verify your printer setup.
    When the page prints, it is resizing the content to be 8.5" wide.
    I don't know what I'm missing.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
    Thank you in advance,

  • Photosmart C410: How do I associate a custom paper size with the photo tray?

    Our Photosmart 3310 recently broke down and I purchased a C410 to replace it.  I sell a small item online that I ship in 3 5/8 x 6 1/2 envelopes.  With the 3310, I had figured out a way to print the envelopes from the photo tray.  While Word 2007 allows me to select the photo tray, the printer would not print from there until I created a custom paper size in the printer preferences dialog box.
    One of the reasons I got the C410 was for the photo tray.  It's a real pain to have to swap out the regular paper and stick in one evelope every time I want to print another envelope.  Well, unfortunately, that's what I've been doing.  I select the photo tray in Word, but the printer goes right ahead and prints from the main tray.  I had forgotten what I did to make it work on the 3310, so I experimented with that printer's drivers until I figured it out.
    My problem is that the software interface for the C410 is different than that for the 3310.  I can't figure out how to associate a custom paper size with the photo tray.  To test my theory this evening, I told Word that my envelope size was 5 x 7.  The printer didn't hesitate to take an envelope from the photo tray.  Of course the return address went into a dark void because the envelope is not 5 x 7.
    The difference between the two interfaces is that the 3310 has both printing shortcuts as well as "Print Task Quick Sets."  The C410 only has printing shortcuts.
    If anyone can help me, I'll be very grateful!  I've probably spent hours trying to get this figured out, and I have no idea what to do.

    Hi,
    Which Microsoft product (application) are you using ? Printer supports the following custom sizes:
    From ADF: Custom-sized media (ADF) between 127 to 216 mm wide and 241 to 305 mm long (5 to 8.5 inches wide and 9.5 to 12 inches long)
    From input tray: Custom-sized media between 76.2 to 216 mm wide and 101 to 762 mm long (3 to 8.5 inches wide and 4 to 30 inches long)
    You need to select right custom size from the application.
    Regards.

  • How do I make a custom page size in Acrobat X pro?

    I downloaded a gigantic trial version of Acrobat X pro to create a full PDF book cover. I was
    unable to figure out how to make the program do anything at all. The help file and forums did
    not give me the information I needed. Eventually I was able to use 4 other programs in
    combination to create a .doc version of the cover but now I need to turn it into a PDF.
    Can somebody please tell me how to, or how to find out how to, create a custom page size in
    Acrobat X Pro and import a Word document into that page size.
    Alternatively perhaps someone could tell me where I can download an earlier, hopefully more
    usable, version of Acrobat.

    As you have discovered, Acrobat is not a creation or editing tool. It is a program to create a final archive of a document from another application that is readable on most platforms. There have been several tools added to Acrobat to provide more functionality for forms and such, but it was never intended for the creation process.
    Now that you have created your cover in WORD, an appropriate place to create it, you would simply print the page to the Adobe PDF printer. You should change the printer in WORD before the conversion and check the page to be sure that it is still what you wanted. This check is needed for versions prior to OFFICE 2007 that used printer metrics by default. Since OFFICE 2007, printer metrics have been turned off by default.
    If the page does not come out correctly (like is 8.5X11 letter or an A-4 page), then enter the printer properties before printing and set a custom page size there to match your WORD document. I assume the WORD document has the desired size. The printer property change is like putting the correct paper in the printer before printing. Sometimes it seems to sense the application setting, and yet at other times is seems to need to be set.

  • Custom page size in Acrobat Pro.

    I have a custom page size microsoft word doc on a Mac computer. When I create this 5.76 x 8.76 document into a PDF using Acrobat Pro, it makes an 8.5 x 11.5 document. I am sending this to a book printer, so I need the precise document size. How do I do this? Thank you.

  • Set custom page size for printing

    I want to set a custom page size for printing some PDF three and four-page musical scores to roll paper on an Epson 1290 using Adobe Reader 9.3.4 on Ubuntu 10.04. The printer properties in the print dialog has a media size option, and one of the choices is "custom", but having chosen "custom", the dialog does not allow me to add the actual page size to the lpr printer command. I can see that when I choose "custom", the lpr command is
    lpr -P Stylus-Photo-1290 -o PageSize=Custom etc
    but what I need for a three page output, for example, is
    lpr -P Stylus-Photo-1290 -o PageSize=Custom.297x630mm etc
    and I can't see how to add the actual custom paper size. If I Ok the media size choice dialog with it just set to PageSize=Custom, I can see from the output preview in the print dialog that the actual page size that has been chosen is letter. The online Adobe doc for Reader 9 printing (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Reader/9.0/content.html#heading2.3) says "For documents that are larger than the standard page size, go to File  > Page Setup.  Create a custom page size before you print your  document". The problem with that is that there is no "Page Setup" option on the File menu in the Unix version of Adobe Reader, only a "Print" option, which is where I already am.
    If I open the PDFs in Evince, it allows me to add the custom page sizes I want, but as Evince doesn't have the option to print multiple pages per sheet I can't use it either...

    Yes, it used to work, and the resize zoom bar used to work too (now its grayed out). I don't know if this is a "who's to blame for it" thing, but its not getting fixed and its pretty bad that no one seems to care enough even to respond. I found my own solution by opening it in Gimp. Just right click and select open with other ...Gimp and it will import into it. In the Gimp Print dialog, you have a scaling percentage in the "Page Setup" tab, and size settings in the "Image settings" plus loads of other stuff including multiple copies.
