Displaying 2 PDF pages on one page

Really enjoying books in EPUB format as I am able to display 2 pages in landscape view on my iPad mini. However, I'm unable to do the same with PDF's. Does anyone know how to display 2 pdf pages on a page in landscape view rather than just 1?

Hi kirstenh,
Combining to PDF pages into one isn't something that's easily done in Acrobat. Please see this thread for a workaround:

Why won't Internet Explorer display current PDF page?

Why can't my computer's Internet Explorer display the current PDF page?

Dear acro123,
    I fixed the problem! I un-installed two different adobe programs (the current ver.11 and an old ver. 5, which I think caused the problems), went to the registry and removed all folders pertaining to the adobe programs, and decided to re-install the current version (ver.11) for a clean install. This seams to do the trick. Thank you for your concern. By the way it was Internet Explorer, running Windows XP and the Adobe versions were 11 and 5.
    Problem: An old page from April 21st kept showing up instead of a current updated webpage. It wouldn't update to the current page. My solution fixed it.
    Thank you!

"Reader" will only display a PDF for one second, then suts down the PDF.

I recently had an automatic update to "Reader" and now "Reader" will only display a PDF for about one second, then shuts down the PDF. This happens to all PDFs no matter what the scource. I am running Windows 7. What do I need to do to correct the situation. (Yes -- I deleted "Reader" from my computer, the re-installed it. Didn't help.)

Go to C/Programs/Adobe/Reader 11/Reader.
Look for a file named eula.exe (or just eula).
Double click it.
Accept the license agreement.
Reader should work fine from there.

How do I: put multiple PDF pictures into one PDF page?

I have just installed Adobe Acrobat Pro Ver 9 - so this apllication and its associated SDK are the only applications available to me for use.
Adobe Acrobat was chosen because of its AutoCAD capabilities (when AutoCAD is not present). i.e. Using Acrobat & AutoCAD's plot configuration files & Pen / colour selection table ensures the output has correct line thicknesses (sometimes colours in CAD are used to represent a line's thickness) - this is preserved when using Acrobat.
The generated output is fantastic. However, when I try to print the output via Excel / Word (used for layout) - my perfect output is reduced to imperfect results.
So: is it possible to layout multiple PDF pictures inside one PDF entity for printing purposes such that the original output is not distorted?
I have in the past put pages in front or behind other pages but cannot find any references or code that works with Pro 9 nor indeed the manual way to insert PDF pages at any location on a single PDF Page?
I'll try and explain. My template coud consist of 6 boxes on a single A4 page thus:
My base PDF Page (can be thought of as a template - ideally it wont be printed - but even if it is - it wont be printed on any media material) has 6 areas (any number of areas up to 100) on it. In each area, there is a box. It is within these boxes that I wish to place a PDF Picture. Not all pictures will be the same. How can I do that? Ideally I'd like some example C# code - though doing it as a user will suffice, for now.
Is there a way of programmatically selecting each of the above boxes on the base PDF Document?
I do know of one manual method (though it seems long winded) and it is not accurate enough in that (even though the layers are deselected) - the hidden layers are subsequently outputed too - not good!
Uses a button icon over each box.
All the current Adobe help for the SDK refers to Pro 8 and previously - which all seems to have now been replaced in Pro 9
This question will be placed in the Developer & User Forums - as it pertains to both.
Thankyou in advance for anyone that either knows any workarounds or any ways to affect a solution.

Picture of what I want to see:
What I get, and don't want to see is:
The PDF was generated using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 from an AutoCAD LT (DWG) file without AutoCAD being present but making use of a plot configuration (PC3) file & pen table (CTB) file. The resultant file [WhatIWantToSee.pdf] is perfect - all the lines are the right thickness & colour and are perfect vectors (with no construction / proofing layers visible). When you view that file in Acrobat and show the "Layers" property box, you see that the correct number of layers whilst are still present are indeed turned off.
However, when I add a forms-button to one of the rectangles (please refer to initial post - where there are 6 rectangles), and display same file as icon display. The resultant view is the one shown above named [ What I get and don't want to see]. It seems the saved layer settings are all ignored?
I generated the PDF file through Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 Menu | File | Create PDF | From File (Files of type Autodesk) | Options | Selected Layers | Layout | Last Active Layout.
Rectangles are regular content elements - not fields (in the general meaning of form-fields).

Unable to display a PDF image on the page - Mac 10.6

Hi,
Running an iMac with 10.6.8 and Indesign 5.0.4. Just wanting to export a PDF as per usual via File > Export function. However, I keep getting the error message, "Unable to display a PDF image on the page'. No idea what this is and have never seen this error before. The only info on the internet reveals error code 0x2511(9489).
I've deleted prefs, closed down and re-opened Indesign and even restarted the computer. I've also re-linked the images contained in the document and even created a new document and set it up the same, but still the same problem. Investigating further, other Indesign documents still export properly.
The only ones that don't export are 2 documents, both giving this same error message. Both documents are ones where a client has sent a PDF, I've imported into two of these into an 2-page A4 Indesign document (each PDF is 48MB each) and then just added a text layer (using Times) which is properly installed on the computer. I basically have to 'update' course dates for the client and add PDF to the website, all very basic.
I've tried importing a jpeg and other PDFs into the file (replacing the existing ones) and they export fine.
All my software is legal and I've exported this document before now in exactly the same File > Export without any problems (under 10.5 and 10.6).
OK... I've just imported the offending PDFs into Acrobat, optimized and shrunk the file size, re-imported back to Indesign and the PDF export works fine. So it seems InDesign / PDF Export doesn't like large imported PDFs? I think they were originally exported from Publisher, so maybe that's the problem or a file conflict somehow.
Any ideas on the culprit? I've googled it, searched these forums and Apple discussions and haven't found anything. Although I've found a workaround, I do get large files to import and then export. Thanks for any help

It does sound like a problem with the original PDF files the client sent you. You can check how they were made in Acrobat Pro from the Additional MetaData button on the Description tab of the document properties dialog. It will be under Advanced at the bottom of the list when the metadata opens.
You might be able to salvage them by running the optimzer and not changing the size, or just doing a Save As in Acrobat.

Mail will NOT display a multi-page pdf file in the body.

I want to send an email with a multi-page PDF attached that is displayed in the email- so that readers don't even have to click on the pdf to open it. Can I do that? I can do a single page, and I did determine that if I save all the pages of the document as single pds and then attach those, that works, but is there a way to display a multi-page pdf? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I do not use pages - there are several possible solutions to your situation - in pages you should be able to do a send pdf to iPhoto and then in iPhoto you can create an e-mail with smaller (and harder to read) images- you may be able to produce smaller (lower quality) PDFs in pages (don't know), you can change e-mail servers - use a different one it you have multiple accounts or get a free gmail account or other new account that will handle your needs

How to print a PDF file that was display in my page...

Hi !. My doubt would be the following one... I would like to know how to print a pdf file that was displayed in my page ?... I mean the PDF file not the page...
The PDF would be in this url:
http://iprodesa.lasegunda.com.ar:8090/datos/pdf/830.pdf
How could I implement this ?...

This first question which comes to mind is how do you display the pdf file in the browser?
For this the browser uses a plug in (e.g. adobe reader) which already has the ability to print the pdf file. Depending on the version of your plug in, printing is started differently.

Ps: which jdev version do you use?

Saved PDF graphs on one page?

When I save my survey results graph as a PDF, it is very large and separted by multiple pages. Is there a way to reduce this size to just 1 page without having to bring it into Photoshop to reduce the size to fit on a 1 page PDF?
Thanks,
Greg

I took a look at the form you shared and the Summary Report. I created a copy of your form to experiment with and did not change anything in your form.
In order to have the entire Summary Report tile appear on a single page in PDF you can do a few things:
1) You can remove the caption from displaying in the first field, from the little settings gear on the top right corner of the report tile un-select "Caption", since you don't have one on this field and it takes up a small amount of vertical space.
2) You can change the font size used in the Summary Report tiles, there is a "T" in the toolbar that exposes the text tools, I tried a 9pt font
3) Go to "File" - "Page Setup" when you are on the Summary Report tab and you can define the size and orientation of the PDF page, I changed it to have a Paper width of 11" and a Paper height of 13" and everything fits on one page.
I hope that these tweaks satisfy your needs...
Thanks,
Josh

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.

How can I print a booklet where each pdf page is vertically placed on each half page instead of one pdf on each booklet page?

I've printed a booklet before but each pdf page had two powerpoint slides on each pdf file. This binder has one powerpoint slide on each pdf page and if I try to print it as a binder, each pdf page takes up the whole half-page on the booklet. I want to print two pdf slides on each page of the booklet so when I open the booklet, there are four powerpoint slides printed. So I basically want to combine the ability to print multiple slides per page but in a booklet form.

Why not reconstruct the pages in InDesign they way you want the double pages to appear. There may even be an imposition script available that will do the trick. You could then output to pdf all the pages you want the full spread on. Leave the original to create the pages you wanted left as is.
You can ask in the ID forum about an imposition script. I know there was one with CS4, there may have been one with CS3.

How can I combine separate pdf documents into one document with several pages

I have been using Preview to separate pdf pages into separate pdf documents. How might I do the reverse. Preview appears to have combined the documents in the thumbnail, but will not allow saving this. It just saves the highlighted page.

Open all the documents. Choose View > Contact Sheet. All the pages will be shown as thumbnails, separated by document. Select the pages you want in the final document and drag them into the desired order, in one document space.

Hello Apple community... I am trying to combine multiple pdf's into one, using preview, but when I drag the additional pages they show up as separate documents.

I am trying to combine multiple pdf's into one, using preview, but when I drag the additional pages they show up as separate documents. When I drag the doc in a line would show up in the past, and if I went above th eline all was good. It doesn't have a line, and no matter what I try I am having no success.
Please help!

According to an Apple Support article, unless there are unforeseen issues
in file ownership or permissions, the combining of .PDFs should be simple.

How to create a PDF page that displays in Email and contains links to a page in the full PDF.

Mac, CS 5
I was able to create the PDF page and activate links to pages in the full PDF document. But when I test-email both files to myself, the links do not work.

You have created links between two PDFs while they were regular disk-based files (I assume using the 'open a file' link action). When they're both attachments to an email message they are no longer in any meaningful 'location'. Some mail clients will extract all the attachments in a message into a temporary cache folder, so they do end up being able to see one another; but others will open each attachment on demand and prevent them from accessing anything else. Attachments are a huge security risk and sandboxing them is always best practice - the result of which is that lots of PDF functions just don't work.
