Document Bleed Settings

I'm looking for a script that will adjust the bleed settings in the document setup for the active document. I imagine this would be simple to do if these fields are adjustable by scripting, I am however not familiar enough with scripting to make this.
Specifically I need the script to set
the top bleed to 40.5 points
the bottom bleed to 40.5 points
the left bleed to 4.5 points
the right bleed to 13.5 points
I'm working on a Mac using Illustrator CS5.5.
Thank You

It would be if these fields were accessable by scripting but alas they're not.

Export to PDF ignores document size settings?

I have several documents in InDesign CS4 and when I export them to PDF the document size changes.
I have set all the following options to A4 (210x297mm):
In Indesign: File->Document Settings
In Windows->Printer settings->Adobe PDF->Paper Size
After exporting and opening in Reader 9 the document size has changed to 210 x 303.3mm
This then requires a tweak before the first print run.
I should be able to just export to production and they can print from the PDF without checking the settings!
What have I missed?

I am using the export option not printing to PDF.

Having trouble with bleed settings

Hello,
I'm trying to make an image a full bleed on an 8.5x11 page. I've got the "Use Document Bleed Settings" checkbox selected in the Bleed and Slug panel of the Marks and Bleeds setting in the PDF export. However, I'm getting this blanking area and then a thin duplication of the image on the verso page. Also, there's a white gutter area. When I deselect the check box, the image seems to look correct on the page. However, I'm concerned that if the checkbox isn't selected, something else might not print properly.
I've also got some images that cross from one page to another. With the box checked, the image doesn't split correctly but there's a small duplication on the other page, suggesting the image won't print up properly. I don't mind that some of the image disappears into the gutter/spine, it's part of the look. But I don't want a white stripe & thin slice or replicated part of the image on the opposing page.
Does anyone have a suggestion of how to handle this properly?
Thank you!

I'm using ID 8.0.1 in Mac OS 10.9.
I get the white stripe when I place a full image covering the outer edge bleeds and abuting right against the inner edge or spine. But when I put an image across the spine and onto the other page, I get the slightly duplicated image as can be seen in the animal horn.
When I use Salah Fadlabi's suggestion of unchecking "Use Document Bleed Settings" and then changing the "Inside" bleed to 0in while leaving Top, Bottom and Outside to 0.125in, The image looks correct when I look at a 2-up view, it doesn't get split or have the weird white line.
rajsre's suggestion that when the paper is cut, the repeated image with the animal horn will actually look correct. However, I'm not confident how this will play out, as I get the white stripe in the single-page images. I didn't do any special setup like "space between", as I'm not sure where that setting is. Sorry, I'm still learning. When I Export, I'm not doing anything special. I know a little bit of the image will be eaten by the gutter, especially with the images that go across the pages.
My printer (Ingramspark) has this to say about gutter margin:
• GUTTER MARGIN:
SADDLE STITCH BOOKS: no gutter margin required; items can be taken completely to the bind edge.
PERFECT / CASE LAMINATE / DUST JACKET BOOKS : 0.125" (3 mm) gutter margin (no-ink area) required on the bind side of the interior. These are bound with glue, and the area is designated so it can adhere to all pages (see reference templates for example). Crossover spreads (images/color intended to straddle a spread) may be used as long as the gutter margin is placed in between where the images/color would normally meet.
Blue (Bleed) Area / Overall Document Size
To determine the final bleed size of your page use the following equation:
Final Width = Width of book + 0.125" (3 mm) bleed on trim side. No additional bleed is added to the bind edge. Final Height = Height of book + 0.125" (3 mm) bleed on top + 0.125" (3 mm) bleed on bottom.
For example a 6x9" (229x152mm) book will have a final interior size of 6.125" (156 mm) wide x 9.25" (235 mm) tall.
If using a background color or image please take those elements to the edge of the bleed area.
Pink (Safety) Area
A 0.5" (13 mm) margin is recommended inside the trim for color book interiors. For perfect bound and hardcover titles this is in addition to the required 0.125" (3 mm) gutter margin. All headers, footers, page numbers, body text and all non-bleed images need to remain in those margins. Any elements outside of the safety areas are at risk of being trimmed.
So that would suggest I need a non-colored area on the inside edge of the pages, so the inside edge of the PDF pages should have a white stripe. Am I reading this correctly? I've got my page setup to have a gutter of 0.125in. This white stripe makes sense for the crossover spread, but it doesn't make sense for the image sitting only on one page.
(This paperback book is going to be print perfect bound. I was thinking about making this a hardback book, but I'm looking at cost options - another matter altogether.)
Here's what the overall image looks like in ID:

Create a new document with settings appropriate for SWF or XFL output.

I'm studying up for the CS4 ACE exam, and I'm stumped on something. In the "Laying out a Document" section, it says: "Create a new document with settings appropriate for SWF or XFL output." There isn't really anything specific to creating a document for flash, except that you wouldn't add bleed. I can't find anything online that addresses this. Am I missing something here? Any document can be exported to SWF or XFL. This seems rather ambiguous. What is there to know about this?

You're right that any document can be exported to SWF or XFL. I'm not sure what you're going to be asked on the ACE exam, but here are some resources:

Read Bleed Settings in AI CS4

Is there a way to read the bleed settings of a document in Illustrator with applescript.
The only way I found was to get the art and bleed boxes from the saved file and re-compute the bleed settings.
Yhanks.

A bit rough but works with a couple of sample files that I have…
var pdf = new File('~/Desktop/Bleed_CS5.ai');
var pdfBoxes = getPDFboxes(pdf);
var bleedTop = Math.round((pdfBoxes.MediaBox[3] - pdfBoxes.TrimBox[3]) / 2.834654);
alert('Bleed Top: ' + bleedTop + 'mm');
var bleedBottom = Math.round(pdfBoxes.TrimBox[1] / 2.834654);
alert('Bleed Bottom: ' + bleedBottom + 'mm');
var bleedLeft = Math.round(pdfBoxes.TrimBox[0] / 2.834654);
alert('Bleed Left: ' + bleedLeft + 'mm');
var bleedRight = Math.round((pdfBoxes.MediaBox[2] - pdfBoxes.TrimBox[2]) / 2.834654);
alert('Bleed Right: ' + bleedRight + 'mm');
function getPDFboxes(f) {
     var pdfBoxes = new Object();
     try {
          f.open('r');
          var str = f.read();
          var b = str.match(/BleedBox\[\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\]/g);
          if (b != null) pdfBoxes.BleedBox = b[0].match(/\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}/g);
          var a = str.match(/ArtBox\[\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\]/g);
          if (a != null) pdfBoxes.ArtBox = a[0].match(/\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}/g);
          var m = str.match(/MediaBox\[\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\]/g);
          if (m != null) pdfBoxes.MediaBox = m[0].match(/\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}/g);
          var t = str.match(/TrimBox\[\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\]/g);
          if (t != null) pdfBoxes.TrimBox = t[0].match(/\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}/g);
          var c = str.match(/CropBox\[\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\s\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}\]/g);
          if (c != null) pdfBoxes.CropBox = c[0].match(/\d{1,5}\.\d{1,5}/g);
          f.close();
     } catch(err) {
          f.close();
     return pdfBoxes;

File not found error when tried to open Document ID settings page

Hi

adil

Hi,
first we need to figure out the error. change the web.config so that you can see the error on browser
1) Obtain the complete call stack instead of the default error page:
<SafeMode MaxControls="200" CallStack="false"/>
to
<SChangeafeMode MaxControls="200" CallStack="true"/>
2) CustomeErrors mode value (in the system.web section) is set to Off:
<customErrors mode="On">
to
<customErrors mode="Off">
Change these value in "c:\inetpub\wssroot" CA dirctory web.config and
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\web.config .
now again try to do the action. you will get the error on screen.

ESET NOD 32 cannot scan past this point. I keep getting stuck at 56% at the following; C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\ Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports\Pending. Is this a problem with NOD32 or with Firefox? Thank you.

I ran into a glitch on my system that I tried to fix myself. My NOD32 was always showing the yellow warning circle as my protection status when I started my computer. I tried to fix this every way I new how.
Then I started to get pop ups asking me to fix and then send system error reports to Windows. Some stating they were '''''critical.''''' So I sent NOD32 the e-mail below.
'''Me:''' I cannot seem to run a complete system scan. I keep getting stuck at 56% at the following point. C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\
Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports\Pending
I also keep getting messages to send error reports to Microsoft constantly. I also have this code C:\pagefile.sys-error opening
Thank you for your assistance.
'''Their solution:'''
Based on the information you provided, we recommend that you upgrade to latest version of ESET NOD32 Antivirus and see if this makes a difference.

Ran a new scan same problem.
I sent them a new e-mail but now wonder if it is a Firefox issue as, C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\
''Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports\Pending'' this is where the scan stalls.
Any help would be appreciated.

Error while checking in and storing: C:\Documents and Settings

Hi,
i have some problem in DMS , while doing Check in process after attaching documents in CV01n.
geeting error like "Error while checking in and storing: C:\Document and Settings.."
please suggest me how to solve this problem.
thx in advance...
Karthik.

Hi Karthik,
There may be several factors contributing to this error.Some of these maybe:
-Storage category defined improperly/missing
-HTTP/FTP destination missing
-Incomplete Workstation application definition
-Incomplete Authorization
Please run through/search for each of these issues (discussed several times in the forum) and adopt corrective action wherever necessary.

Error while checking in and storing: C:\Documents and Settings\Administr

Dear
Whille saving then document in dms , i am getting this error.....
Error message is : "Error while checking in and storing: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documen...."

R Karthikeyan

Hi all,
Similar kind of issue occurred in one of our webdynpro applications of SAP NetWeaver Portal-
The error message "Error while checking in and storing" was returned by the BAPI while trying to replace documents in the DMS Server via portal.
But the documents were getting stored in the back end by the use of standard T-Codes.
Later it was found that ABAP tables COMPONENTS & COMPONENT_DATA are inconsistent by looking into the HTTP trace file.
The HTTP patch "http.c#21" was being used in our server.
SAP suggested the below mentioned steps-
-->Download the most recent SAPHTTP version & install it.
-->Then delete the RFC connections SAPHTTP & SAPHTTPA through T-Code SM59
-->Regenerate them again with report RSHTTP05
They were carried out in our ECC server & the issue was resolved.
Please try them out if applicable in your case & let us know.
Thanks & Regards,
Shreyashri Kar

Error while checking in and storing: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop

Hi all,
I'm getting the following Error while checking in original to Content Server
"Error while checking in and storing: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Desktop" Message 26253
OAC0, OACT, CSADMIN settings seems to be Ok .
Settings in DMS SPRO - in dc10, dc20(data carrier used PC)- everything fine
-Authorization issues are not there
Earlier checking in was possible with same settings, but now we are getting this error.
From my end i had test the RFC Connection (SAPFTP, SAPFTPA, SAPHTTP, SAPHTTPA) through SM59 and its test run was successful. So the possibilty of RFC Failure was ruled out.
I knew this problem was arised as there is some issue in Content Repository, but not able to trace it out.
If any one knew what to do in this case, then let me know.
Secondly, what are the things need to be checked to identify the content repository Checking in Issue.
Regards,
S Anand

Error Resolved.
I had only executed the below command
./dbmcli on SDB>db_execute SET LOG AUTO OVERWRITE ON
OK
seems like Log file was full. but now its working.
Thanks for your suggestion.

Writing video to dodgy "Document and Settings" folder

Minor problem that I've come across when generating video using JMF:
On Windows, if the output location is in the users home directory, the video gets written to a copy of that directory with spaces replaced by % characters!
e.g.
C:\Documents and Settings\me\Desktop\Documents%20and%20Settings\meMy%20Documents\My%20Videos
The target URL is selected from a file chooser and looks fine before it's passed to the MediaLocator.
What's going on?

URLs, by default, replace spaces with '%20'. Common knowledge, moving on.Really! Never come across that, and neither has anyone else on the team (or at least not for files anyway).Yep. [RFC 1738|http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt] defines spaces as unsafe characters, and mandates that all unsafe characters be encoded using the % octet encoding scheme.
Anyway, no I'm not explicitly prefixing the protocol, instead just using file.toURI().toURL().
Dumping the URL shows that the protocol is correct, e.g. file:/C:/yadayada.avi on WindowsRather than doing that, because file.toURI().toURL() should result in replacing spaces with %20, I'd recommend trying the following...
MediaLocator ml = new MediaLocator("file:/"+file.getCanonicalPath());

MMS Hidden columns appearing in Document Library Settings / Column list

Hello all,
Before you read this please be aware that I have found a resolution (that might be helpful to others) but I am wondering if anyone else has experienced the same thing and the cause.
Our scenario is as follows:
We use a Content Type hub
Most Content Types include one or more Managed metadata columns
The MMS Notes (hidden) columns (e.g. mms_column_name_0) have appeared on the 'Document Library Settings page under 'Columns' for 2 document libraries only. They appear under the actual name of the column (e.g. mms_column_name).
They are NOT visible to the user however (i.e. they are not selectable to be used in a view)
Looking at SharePoint Manager the mms Notes column's are marked as being Hidden = false. Altering this to true has the desired effect.
But has anyone else experienced the same issue as I'm inquisitive as to the cause.
The only thing I can think of that caused this to happen was us using 'Metadata navigation settings' (which allows you to configure navigation hierarchies) for the first time on one of the 2 Doc Libs effected . However, on testing it on other document
libraries the unhiding of columns has not occurred.
Can anyone shed any why this may have occurred?
Jason

Hi jasonl27,
this behaviour:
This is by design. Two separate lists do not have any type of relationship established to distinguish that the
columns are the same. For example, take an arbitrary column called "Position" being created on two different custom lists. Because the column Position is a custom column created
in the list, it has no mapping to other lists. The "Position"
in one list could refer to a title of a person
in one list, or a physical location on a different list. SharePoint cannot tell if these two items are the same or completely different. As a result, a new column name is added when we move the item.
perhaps you may try to do these steps:
$site = Get-SPSite -Identity "http://......../"
$web = $site.RootWeb
$field=$web.Fields["column name"]
$field.Update($true)
$field.Hidden= "True"
$web.Dispose()
$site.Dispose()

Aries

How can I get firefox to not save pdf files (such as bank statements I have looked at) to my documents and settings/temp folder?

I just realized that some (but not all pdf files that I have opened) pdf files of bank statements as well as other pdf files that I have opened when browsing with firefox have been saved to my documents and settings/temp folder. I am concerned about this for security of my data, but also confused as to why all of these documents (as well as some word documents and other types of non .tmp files) are being stored here. Please tell me how to stop this from happening.
Thank you,
Wimajeanne

I can understand that they would appear there if I have the document open, or have recently viewed it. These documents are over a month old, some are over a year old.
Also, it is not just PDF files, I also see word docs and java.exe files in this folder. None of these files have the %temp% in the title as they do when I have a particular document open, rather they are a copy of the file or document that I have saved to my data file.
My main concern is the security of information when random PDF and doc files are stored here without my knowledge.
Thank you.

Item Category in Document Split settings

Hello,
Can anybody throw some information reg. item category in document spliting settings.

Hi
U should not create new item categories. U have to use only available item categories
Item categories are intended for special procurements (consignment, subcontracting, stock transport etc and services ).
These transactions are built in with several integrations internally.
