Default print settings - Print by page size

Hello,
I use Acrobat to print odd size documents (odd, meaning other than 8 1/2 x 11, and 11 x 17). I was wondering if there was a setting to default Acrobat to print to a certain page size everytime no matter what dimensions the PDF is?
Thanks!

Have the same issue. Did you get it resolved?

Problems printing multiple page sizes in a single document

I print loan documents. When my documents are emailed, they are mixed page size documents of letter and letter. I cannot get the printer to switch page sizes automatically. I have to switch them manually. I am using MAC book pro with OS version 10.9.1 and acrobat reader 11.0.04. This is on a Brother Laser printer model HL5470DW

The documents are emailed to me as a PDF file with formatting set in the documents. We do not get a screen that allows us to tell the driver to use the Adobe document page settings.

Default Printer with Particular Size

Hi Experts,
Am facing one issue, I have attached various documents with various sizes in the DMS(Document Management System), but while taking the print by multiple selection I want the output to be in the particular size for all the documents which are attached in the DMS.
How can this be achieved.
Regards,
Thirupathi

It already is the default printer in 'Printer Setup Utility' .... however in Photoshop via 'Page Set Up' it is not .
Anyone else out there have any ideas?

Mac Mini envelopes printing full page size from contacts

Good day.
So here’s my story.
In early summer I printed out enveoples form "Address Book" for our wedding invitations from a Macbook pro 2.16 GHz running 10.6.8. Everything worked out perfectly.
I then got a Mac Mini 2.7 GHz Core i7 for a wedding gift and I did a data migration from my Macbook Pro to the mac Mini. It was running 10.8.5 and is now running the latest version or Maverics. The printer I used for both envelope printing jobs, an HP CM1415fnw color MPF has also been updated to the latest software version.
The problem I am having is that the Mac mini will NOT print envelopes in the custom envelope size, it always prints full page. It has done this since the data migration form the Macbook Pro running "Address Book" to the Mac Mini 10.8 running "Contacts". I thought is was an operating system issue so I waited for the new OS Maverics. I did another print out from both computers tonight to see if the issue had resoleved it's self. NOPE. I even do a print preview on the mini which loads up Preview and it shows the custom size, though it prints out full page
All settings on both computers are the same for the custom envelope size.
Anyone know how I can fix the paper size issue?
Thanks for anyhelp I get

Hi Rodger_
Thank you for the additional information, it was helpful.
I was speaking with one of my colleagues and we would like you to try the following steps. Once you have completed the steps please try printing again.
1)    Please reset your printing system, I have included a document on how to do this. Please be aware that this reset deletes all print settings and pending print jobs from your Mac.
2)    In the "Printers & Scanners" please click on the '+' and choose "Add another printer or scanner from the options (see screen shot)
3)    Choose your Laserjet CM1415fnw and at the bottom where it says "USE" please change it to the HP Laserjet (see screen shot) instead of AirPrint

Printing a page size not in the printer's pull down menu

Hi! I have a Photsmart C6180, which I'm running on Windows 7. I'm trying to print out invitations on 5.5 x 8.5 cards, but I don't see that size in the pull down menu on the print screen. I have printed that size on that printer before, but that was with my old computer which ran XP. What gives? Does anyone have any idea how to create a custom page size for the printer?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi there @shirleywas
Welcome to the Community
I read about how you are trying to print on 13 x 6 paper size, and are not finding the options to select this size within your options.
After checking out the printers Specifications, I see that the printer does not support the size you are looking for specifically however, you can check out the links below to see if you are able to create a custom size to get the size you want. This may not work but could be worth a shot to try it out.
I am unsure of which operating system you're running so I have included links that will include:
Windows 7, Windows 8, and Mac OS X here: Create Custom Paper Sizes in Windows 7, Windows 8, and Mac OS X
Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 here: Re: printing on 5.5x8.0 paper

Improvement request - duplex printing different page sizes

I have scanned sheet music to PDF and then trimmed the margins for best display on my tablet. This means some pages are different sizes (but all are smaller than 8.5 x 11).
I combined one such PDF into a larger PDF of all 8.5 x 11 pages. When I print duplex, the pages that are less than 8.5 x 11 print out single sided instead of duplexed. It does this regardless of the size option (fit, actual size, or shrink) that I choose.
I consider this to be a bug. It is already properly centering the less than 8.5x11 pages on the output paper, so it should be able to duplex them even though they are different sizes in the PDF. I would like to see this fixed.

How can I get my Pro-100 to print 12x12 page size? It won't let me set that size.

I use 12x12 paper for scrapbooking. Every time I set the paper size for 12x12, the printer says to choose the A3 size (11 x 16). But then there's a wide margin of white left over. How can I get the printer to print edge to edge?

You need to buy a paper trimer. Office Depot has several to choose from. Believe me and save your self a lot of headache and just get the trimmer. Print what you want on a larger size paper that the Pro-100 accepts and trim away.
Are you using a post editor like Photoshop Elements? If not I highly recommend you buy it, too. There are others, some are even free, but PSE is the best.

Can someone please tell me the default Firefox settings for Fonts and sizes (the advanced font settings, too)? I started playing around with mine and now I just want them back to normal, but there's no reset button for fonts, just the zoom features. Help!

Under "Firefox," "Preferences," and then "Fonts and Colors" there is a setting that I would like to know the default for, as well as all of those that you see when you select the "Advanced" button for Fonts.

You can see the defaults in a screenshot in this KB article: [[Some text shows up bold after upgrade]] 
You can check the font setting in: Firefox > Preferences > Content : Fonts & Colors: Advanced
 
Default Font: Times New Roman (16)
 
Fonts for : Western

Can Reader pick up the Default Page Size of a printer that is not the Windows Default Printer?

We have a web based application that generates PDF documents via Crystal Reports.
We are using Adobe Reader 8
The PDF pages are displayed within an Internet Explorer window where the the users then print the document.
The application is designed so the user only gets one chance to print the document (ie they cant come back and change printer settings if they happen to print the document out incorrectly)
The document needs to be printed on A3 paper, full duplex.
We have a printer set-up decidated to the printing of the documents generated by this application. The default page size of this printer is set of A3.
If we set this dedicated printer as the Windows Default Printer we have no problems at all. The default page size (A3) is picked up and the document is printed correctly.
If any other printer is set as the Windows Default Printer (eg one that has a default page size of A4), the users must obviously select the correct printer from the Print Dialogue Box -however when the user selects the dedicated A3 printer, the page size remains as A4 (page size of the Windows Default Printer). This means the user must remember to change the paper size to A3 each time.
Out users find IT a struggle at the best of times - anything that makes the process simpler is very welcomed!
Is there a way to ensure the default page size of the printer is respected when that printer is not the Windows Default Printer?
Thanks!

No.

I am needing to set the DEFAULT Print to be ACTUAL SIZE not FIT. I need this to be the DEFAULT SETTING for the program.

I have a couple users using Acrobat XI Pro and when they print a PDF it is shrunk to 96.08%. I need to find a way to set the DEFAULT Setting to be Actual Size. We are a Law Firm and the Document Numbering is being cut off from the docs due to the Shrinking.
Has anyone had any experience in changing the DEFAULT settings of the Print Window? Can you please pass along any knowledge on how to accomplish this? Thanks for your time and replies.

Acrobat and Reader's Fit and Scale functions are "sticky".
From the Print Dialog > Page Size & Handling
Any option you choose will remain active for all subsequent documents.
(Some features remain active until the program is quit/restarted)
Choose Actual Size
Do not change the selection, it will retain the setting.

Print booklet still only recognises 'consistent' page sizes

Why is one still not able to print multiple page sizes through print booklet in Indesign? One would think that since I can work with multiple pages sizes, I can output theme correctly - without a work around!

Calling it a convenience feature is not helping it, as it is more of an inconvenience now. I was not asking for a 'full-blown professional imposition engine', but merely for the Adobe to make all considerations when making new features available. This 'convenience feature' is used much more extensively than you may know. My request is not an unreasonable one.

Print Odd Page Dimensions

I went through a lot of trouble trying to figure out why this wasn't working, so I would like to post my notes for anyone who needs to do this.
I needed to print on page sizes that could vary from short, wide pages to tall, narrow pages. I was trying to do this by implemeting the Printable interface, but that doesn't work, because the page size would be automatically changed from my settings. I found this blog that gave me the hint that I needed to implement the Pageable interface instead, and that worked perfectly. Fortunately, the Printable implementation was just what I used to learn Java printing, and Pageable is what I was heading towards.
I'm not sure why Pageable worked and Printable did not, because for Pageables essentially point to a collection of Printables, each having their own PageFormat. In any case, if you are having trouble with printing, especially with wide pages, this may help.
Best!

in iPhoto edit the photo and crop to a square - since cropping is just a ratio, not a dimension and square would work - select the cropped photo and click print - select the printer and paper size and set a custom print size - 12cm x 12cm in your case - and print

Printing A3 page format using ABAP List from SAP is a problem...

Hi Experts,
I am trying to print a standard output (ABAP List) A3 page size from SAP.
I used SWIN, SAPWIN, I9HP4 device types, but none of them worked.
I created page format type ZYEVMIYE 290MM 420MM and the page format L120, W200. In order to make it usable with page size is A3. Unfortunately this did not work either.
The behaviour of the problem is when I tried to print with the device types that mentioned above then printer indicator comes to an error. And nothing comes out from the printer.
Just to be on the safe side I made a test from windows self test, it resulted success with A3 page size format. So from this point of the view I got a thought that somehow SAP (selected device types) is not able to send correct signal to Printer for page size A3, because on the printer information screen displays load Tray2 for A4 this is showing that SAP sends Printer a signal for page format A4.
I need help on how to make SAP (selected device type) send a correct signal to Printer in order to printout A3 page size format.
Quick reply will much be appreciated.

Hi,
At last i got a Solution to my Question.
The Problem is that in my SAP-Code they have been translated the PDF into 255 string.But i am retreiving using 132 string.So, i resolved in this way.
For Each dr As DataRow In ds.Tables(0).Rows
Dim dataline As String = dr(0)
If dataline.Length < 255 Then
dataline = dataline.PadRight(255, " ")
End If
sb.Append(dataline)
Next.
May be this Thread is useful to Others.

Rajender.

Custom Page Size Issues

I just got a new computer (10.5.8) with the Adobe CS4 Suite and I'm having troubles printing custom page sizes from Illustrator to my Epson Stylus Photo 1280 (can handle oversized prints).
When I was using my old system (AI 10) I could specify a custom page (say, 12"x12") and it would set the print margins according to my printer as well as print out exactly as it looked in the Print Dialog box. No problems.
With CS4, I am unable to select "Custom" under the Media section in the Print Dialog box, and I can only get to my 12x12 page by selecting "Page Setup" and choosing my custom under the Paper Size drop down. When I build my custom pages, it gives me the option to put in "user defined" margins or to choose my printer. When I choose my printer, it sets all the margins to .00" instead of knowing the Epson's defaults like it used to. Regardless of what I type in, my prints are getting cut off even when they look centered and perfectly fine in the Print Dialog box.
I'm at a loss. I recently updated my printer driver just to make sure it wasn't that, but I'm still having problems with the margins and the custom page sizes.
I did have PowerRIP X when I was using my old programs, but I thought that was an issue that was resolved since 10.2. Is anyone familiar with these issues? Do I need to buy PowerRIP X again? I sure hope not (it's pricey!)
Please help.

I would copy and paste your entrie post and e-mail it to Epson.com/support/, adobe.com/support/, and apple.com/support/; there should be an easy answer to your problem. That said, I wonder if the RIP would be the answer. It shouldn't be. From what I hear, Epson drivers are pretty robust. Don't be surprised if they tell you to get a new printer. I mean, come on, how many years do you expect to get outa that thing? Chuckle, chuckle.
