CS3: Page range problem

I have a document with several short sections, 1- 4 pages each. Each section is numbered from page 1 and has a different section marker and prefix. All section prefixes are unique, so even though I have several page
1s, I have only one page
AL1. Here's an example:
When I print or export only page
AL1 to PDF I get an error:
Why? There
is a page
AL1, and there is only one such page, so there should be no reason for the error. I can get around it by exporting page
+2. But there are 14 sections. I would have to count out each page's absolute position in order to export or print non-contiguous ranges, which I do often.

But I don't want the prefix included. I'm printing page numbers in each section, and I want just numbers, not prefixes. Besides, I don't think that's it, because the page numbers in the PDFs and at the bottom of the InDesign window
douse the prefix. The error message indicates that InDesign recognizes
AL1 as a legitimate page number.

  • DW CS3 Page Properties problem - I don't have font, repeat  options

    I have been following some online tutorials and they are also in CS3, DW but my page properties layout and options are different within the program.
    Is there something that needs updating/ downloading turning on in an advanced option? I have looked over the web and can find others with the same problem but not a solution.
    Hope you can help.
    The link below at the bottom of the page on the left has a thumb nail of the properties page which matches mine, note no repeat, font and other options are missing compared to others and I imagine yours.

    thanks

    I had the same problem although it was a previous update rather than this one that caused the problem. Just hadn't got round to doing something about it - was using Bing images instead.
    I searched for some answers this morning and seemed like most suggestions were a nuisance to try. Couldn't find 'Preferences button of HTTPS-Everywhere' as suggested above. Decided to check if No Script was blocking it. Sure enough. So problem is solved.
    Thought I'd put it out there in case it helps someone else. Appreciate that people are so helpful on here.

  • Photoshop CS3 Color Range Problem

    I am having an issue with the color range selection tool in Photoshop CS3 on an iMac G5 running Snow Leopard.
    I've been using this tool for years and it's always worked properly until now. It no longer selects the color I've picked with the eyedropper. The only time it works properly is when I set the image to grayscale mode. In any other mode, it selects erratically, like the image below. Those are clean rectangles I created with the paint bucket, so I'm not sure where the lines selected in the Color Range view are coming from. Adjusting
    "Fuzziness" doesn't help. The image is set to 8bits. Any ideas?
    I've tried using the color range on another computer with the same settings and it works fine.

    Is the Eyedropper Tool set to Current Layer in the Options Bar?
    If nothing else helps you can always try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed).

  • Print multiple page ranges based on radio button group choices

    Hi ... I have a PDF that is a combined application form made up of 6 separate forms. On the front page, I have 6 groups of "Yes / No" radio buttons.
    If the radio button for one or more of these groups is selected as "Yes" then when the Print button (on the page) is clicked then the appropriate page ranges will print.
    It is desireable, though not essential, for these to be printed in one print job.
    The Code I have been adjusting to try and achieve the result is below but I have tied myself in knots now and any help would be greatly appreciated:

    Hi Gilad D
    The 'printRanges.push' function works well on my Mac using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI however when it is used on the systems that the form users will be working on (which runs Adobe Reader 9.4.0.195) the ranges are not pushed to the printer dialogue box and the 'printRange'
    in the dialogue is still selecting the 'All Pages' radio button.
    Is the printRanges.push function a new and non-backwards-compatible function or is my code the problem

  • Page cropping problem in Acrobat XI

    I have a title built in InDesign that I export in PDF for the printer. I discovered over successive runs that I needed to shift the y axis a tad and widen the gutter to get the best production results. Here is the routine for doing so in Acrobat Pro IX:
    in Acrobat
    Document /Crop Pages / Change Page Size / Custom: width 6 in; height 9 in. [ set for each operation ]
    Adjust y-axis (height) of text block
    Y offset: - 0.15 (check shift visually)
    Page range = all
    apply to: odd and even pages
    Adjust recto x-axis placement
    X offset: + 0.13  (check shift visually)
    Page range = all
    apply to: odd pages only
    Adjust verso x-axis placement
    X offset: - 0.13  (check shift visually)
    Page range = all
    apply to: even pages only
    I had to produce an new PDF body file for the first time since switching to CC (Acrobat XI), and when I finally found the page cropping dialogue, the above routine blew up the book completely. There wasn't a single character visible in 300+ pages. I take it that Acrobat XI has different ideas about cropping pages, but I couldn't see where the problem lies. The dialogue boxes look the same. The commands are the same. Only the results are different. ??
    Any help much appreciated.

    This usually means the file is corrupt, probably because it was not created
    using a standard application like Adobe Acrobat.

  • How to hyphenate page ranges in InDesign CS4 Index

    Hello,
    Does anyone know how to automatically hyphenate page ranges in an index in InDesign CS4?  In other words, if I generate an index with a reference on multiple consecutive pages, it looks like this:
    Entry 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
    Obviously, this is much more cluttered than if it could read:
    Entry 1, 4-10
    I'm wondering if anyone knows whether there is an option to cause InDesign to do this automatically.  I'd hate to have to go through and do it by hand.
    Thanks in advance,
    Professor F

    Thanks very much, Jong, this is a helpful start.  Unfortunately, it creates a new problem for the one it solved; when I run it, it will insert page numbers after the first letter of the index entry.  So
    Certificate of insurance 389, 390, 391, 392
    becomes:
    C, 389–92
    ertificate of insurance 390, 392
    I regret that I don't know anything about scripting.  Is there some way to fix this, either through InDesign settings or by adjusting Peter's script?
    Many thanks!

  • Print page range set thro Javascript issue in Acrobat 8.0

    Hi,
    I coded to a bookmark as below in a PDF Using Adobe Acrobat.
    this.print({bUI:false, nStart:0, nEnd:1, bSilent: true});
    when i click the bookmark the print panel opens with all pages selected. The same working fine with Acrobat 9.0 and other readers. The problem persist only in Acrobat 8.0.
    Is it a bug in Acrobat 8.0?

    You mean, Edit>preferecnces (ctrl+k)
    Javascript--- Enable Acrobat Javascript (check box)
    Yes, it's enabled. When i click the bookmark, the Print dialog box opening, which means the Javascript is running. But Print page range is set to All, It suppose to be 1-2.

  • Print each page range double sided as new task

    Hi All,
    I have that problem. I would like to double sided print some pages from pdf file - let's say pages 1 to 5. But I want them to print like this - pages 1-2 on the first sheet of paper, page 3 on the second sheet (the other side of this sheet I want to be blank) and pages 4-5 on the third sheet.
    If I type page ranges 1-3,4-5 when printing the result will be the same if I would type page range 1-5, so pages 1-2 will print on first sheet, pages 3-4 on the second sheet and page 5 on the third sheet. That's not what I want.
    The only solution is to first print pages 1-3 and then open printing dialog box again and print pages 4-5 so they would be two separate tasks for printer. But this is very time consuming when working with large files.
    I do not have Adobe Acrobat to insert blank page after each section that is odd numbered so this is no solution for me.
    Could you please help? Any ideas how to work this out? Is there any printing set up to print each page range as separate task?
    Or maybe there is a way to double sided print odd numbered page ranges with an additional blank page at the end so that the next range would start on new sheet?
    Thank you in adavnce

    dear ,
    check ur printer settings , bcos u are using std.program , so i cannt say SAP is doing wrong , better to check ur printer settings

  • Can't Choose Page Range when Exporting PDF from InDesign

    Hi!  Ever since I upgraded to CS6 via your subscription, I can't choose a page-range when exporting to PDF from InDesign (8.0.1).  Here's a video demonstration of the problem so you can see the bug in action:  http://screencast.com/t/kYR1ACtNi
    Are you aware of this bug?  If it's not a bug, how do I fix it?

    Alternate layouts are used for things like horizontal and vertical orientations of the same layout for use on tablets. I suspect there's some coverage in the Help files -- being a print guy I don't mess with them.
    It may be that you only have one layout and ID just shows you that one inthe dropdown. I can't recall that I ever used the dropdown to try to select the range -- I always just type what I need in the field.

  • Cannot Print "current page" or "page range" in Compatibilty Mode in Word 2010

    We are upgrading to Word 2010 from Word XP
    All old documents open in Compatibility Mode
    None can print a page range or current page, the whole document prints instead
    I have tried to "Convert" to the 2010 format to no avail.
    This does not happen on Documents created in 2010.
    The only workaround I have found is to Copy the entire document into a New Word 2010 Document.
    Is there a fix for this? Is anyone else having the same problem?  It is not the same as the section problem I have seen all over these forums.

  • How to import an index with topics that have page ranges?

    I've been trying to import into InDesign indexes made in Word, which have page ranges. For example:
    INDEX
    Cat, page 20-25
    The problem is that the above topic arrives to InDesign like this:
    INDEX
    Cat, page 20
    Anyone has any idea how to solve this?
    Ola

    Hi Ola
    If there are index references in the Word file on the pages 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, Word is able to generate "page 20-25". But then in InDesign there must be "page 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25". So I think that there are no index references on the other pages ...
    BTW: InDesign cannot create "page 20-25" from "page 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25" without scripting ...

  • JavaScript Print Button Page Range Not Working Ubuntu Linux

    I have created a PDF file that has several button programed in Javascript to print a page or page range in the file.  It works great in Windows and Mac but in Ubuntu Linux there is a problem.  When you hit the button it brings up the Print window but it has all pages set to print instead of the 1 or 2 pages it is programed to print.  How do you fix this.  I used the following Javascript.  Please help.
    this.print({
    bUI: true,
    bSilent: true,
    bShrinkToFit: true,
    nStart: 1,
    nEnd: 1
    This is supposed to print only page 2 of the document but in Adobe Reader in Linux it wants to print page 1-12.  Apparently the nStart and nEnd does not work.  Is there another way to do this so it will work in Ubuntu Linux.
    Thanks

    I suspect that the problem has to do with the added security
    included in Flash 8 and above that restricts javascript. If you
    search the flash player KnowledgeBase on Adobe.com you'll find more
    detailed information about fixes, but here is what worked for my
    Javascripted items.
    Find your Program Files > Adobe > Adobe Captivate 4
    > Templates > Publish folder. Within the folder is a
    standard.htm file. Open this file (for this simple task, i just use
    notepad). In the script section, add...
    so.addParam("allowScriptAccess", "always");
    you'll see other similar param declarations. It doesn't
    matter the order.
    You can edit the individual .htm file if you want to test
    this first.
    That should do it.
    Here is the KB article that discusses the security features
    in greater detail:

  • DW CS3 site cache problem

    I upgraded to CS3 with no problems except I now find that if
    I attempt to delete a word of pdf file that I know is linked to an
    htm page, DW no longer gives me a warning message. This means that
    If I do a sync. any updated word or pdf files do not get uploaded
    to the server. If I do re-create the site cache the files still do
    not get "re-linked". Anybody got an idea what is going on? I have
    an awful lot of pdfs and docs linked from my site.
    Thanx in advance

    I figured out if I drag the file window to the left it will
    stay on the left. I thought
    before in previous version when you select files to be on the
    left the preferences menu they would go to the left. Problem
    solved.

  • PrintJob is ignoring print dialog page range

    The class flash.printing.PrintJob presents an OS print dialog box when the start() method is executed, but in Windows XP the dialog option to select a page range is disabled.  In Mac OSX Snow Leopard the page range portion of the dialog is enabled, but is not recognized.  Instead, all pages are printed regardless of the entry.  It does work correctly for an Air application running under adl, but it does not work correctly for an Air application running under Air. It does not work correctly for a Flex application running in the browser, or running from Flash Builder.

    Did it work before? It could be a printer driver problem with the OS.
    It could also be a PS preferences problem.
    To fix, reset your preferences as described in the FAQ.
    http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.ef4a07f/1
    You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
    This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.
    A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

  • IF Form region AND report + search tool in same page THEN = problem

    Helllo everybody
    I posted an initial and now the advanced as I received helpful comments but still is unsolved:
    Problem:
    If I have a Form, and a Report With a Search feature on the same page the problem is that when I click on the button of Search to find records in the Report, the page reloads as it goes and returs to the server. Alright, however, that reloading causes the Form to submit data while there is no data because I was not working with the Form. When the report gets the "submission of the Form" it receives all empty data and it complains as it cannot have Null values in its rows.
    Solution:
    The thing would be to tell the form not to submit anything unless expressley pressed the button Create or Save. It seems that these buttons activate when the page is reloaded I mean reloaded by haiving pressed the button Search of the Reports region.
    The helpful comments were in the direction of going to Processes, Automatic Row Processing and then choosing a conditional for processing of the Form, that it, it would only activate (submit itself if that condition is met)
    So I go to PL/SQL Function body Returning a boolean and I paste this: RETURN :REQUEST IN('SAVE','CREATE');
    but the problem continues unsolved, that doesnt help. It must be very close but there is something I am missing
    thank you very much
