Edited PDF changes to Horizontal when Printing to PDF

We use Adobe Pro Online.
When my supervisor edits a PDF and then Prints to Adobe PDF (rather than saving) it is changing it to a Horizontal view. She claims she hasn't changed any settings, and that her print settings are not set to landscape. She also says that when she rotates the image back the way it should be and again tries to Print to Adobe PDF it again changes it to horizontal view. She said this just started a couple of days ago. Can anyone think of a reason why it might be doing this? When she saves or saves as it does not change to horizontal view.
My supervisor was taught to always Print to PDF instead of Saving. She claims it makes it indelible. I don't agree, I think she needs to use the protection settings, and save or save as. She is set in her ways, and wants to be able to continue doing it her way, but the horizontal view makes it unuseable.

You can't do that. It's a setting of the printer used by the user on their computer, not of your file. The only way you can set this option is if the user prints the file via a button that you've added to it (in Acrobat), that uses a script that sets that option for them.

Change paper size when printing

How to change paper size when printing pdf? No option for paper size appear.

That is a feature of AirPrint. If you do a Google search on "AirPrint paper size" you'll find documentation from major printer manufacturers. For example, this is copied from some HP documentation:
What paper and media sizes are supported?
With AirPrint, paper and photo media sizes are automatically selected depending on the application you are using on your Apple device, your HP ePrint printer, and the region in which you are using AirPrint. You do not have the option to select different paper sizes.
For example, from Apple’s Photo application, if the HP ePrint printer has a separate photo paper tray, AirPrint uses 4 x 6 inch photo media as the default paper size. If the printer does not have a separate photo paper tray, AirPrint uses letter-size paper. If you are printing from Apple’s Safaribrowser, letter-size paper is the default paper size in the US region, and A4 is the default paper size in Europe.
AirPrint supports the following paper and media sizes:
Letter
Legal
A4
4 x 6 in photo paper
A6 photo paper

PDFMaker changes page orientation when printing to pdf

Hi all! I am praying for an answer. My job requires me to convert huge word documents to pdf using the pdfmaker add-in with acrobat Professional 8.1.3. My problem is as follows and has occured in two seperate documents. I have Microsoft word 2007 and run on a VIsta OS.
   So my problem is when I create a pdf from word acrobat for some odd reason changes any page's orientation that contain excel spreadsheets that have been inserted (I believe through copy and paste and they are not linked to excel). Thus I get a page with a landscape spreadsheet with a profile orientation and it cuts off the information for my client. By the way, it does the complete opposite of whatever orientation I choose.
   Here are some things I have tried: I tried saving document as a 97-2003 word file and create pdf from that version, I have changed the PDFmaker advanced settings for auto-rotate pages and tried all three options to no avail. I really need some help fast! I will love anyone who solves this problem for me.
Thanks,
       Jason.

GREAT NEWS!!! I FIGURED IT OUT!!!!
Okay so after a lot of frustration and mountain dew I have figured this out, but first the problem is simpler then I listed it. So here is the actual problem:
I had a document with multiple sections and one section was oriented landscape while the rest were profile. When printing to PDF the resulting pdf file had all sections in profile and ignored any change in orientation and cut off/cropped out elements of the pages I had in landscape orientation.
SOLUTION:
The solution to this problem is in two parts: 1) changing some print preview stuff in word, and 2) changing preferences in pdfmaker/acrobat ribbon.For this solution to actually work however you must have the landscaped sections sectioned off by inserting section breaks in word.
Step 1) Go to the section where you document orientation is changed from the rest of the document. Press the office button (in 2007) and drag down to print>print preview. You will notice that your section has now reverted to profile. (Ah Ha!) Change the page orientation to landscape.
            "But wait, now my margins or elements are getting cut off" you say. Go to Page setup. Make sure that near the bottom it says "Apply to: This section"
            Now make it landscape and this changes the margins to also be landscape.
Step 2) Click on your Acrobat tab and go to preferences. Under pdfmaker settings click advanced settings and as Bill and I have said change auto-rotate pages to individually.
AND YOU ARE DONE!!!!!

In se75. go in change mode and click create button in application tool bar.
Now text object is something to which a text is attached, like, a material or a Purchase order etc.
Text format is like rich text format or plain text depending upon which an editor is invoked
Specify Editor application. SAP provides standard Editor application choose from one of them(TA or TN)
Line width
This attribute determines the line width to be used for this text in the text editor. A SAPscript text line may consist of up to 132 characters.
Save mode specifies how a text is saved in
dialogue task
When calling the corresponding save function, the system immediately writes the text module to the text database.
in update task
All changes to the text modules of a transaction are stored intermediately in a buffer. Only when the application object is updated does the system write the texts to the log file and, in the update task, stores them in the text file.
For not in text file
You can use SAPscript to edit texts that are not stored in the text database. In this case, SAPscript only returns the changed text table to the application program, which is itself responsible for storing the text

Word 2013 Table of contents - page numbers all change to 2 when print (or print preview)

I have a single section document in Word 2013. The first page is a TOC. The document is 4 pages long and has three Level 1 Heading styles through out the document. The TOC initially appears correct.
When I go to Print Preview the TOC will revert all page numbers to 2.
Changing the Options "Update fields before printing" and "Allow fields containing tracked changes to update before printing" has no effect (before anyone suggests this).
The only solution is to manually update the TOC, save to PDF, and print the PDF.
Anyone can reproduce this problem. Try it....
Start with blank document
Insert a TOC (ignore the error message, we will come back to this)
Go to the end of the document and insert a page break to move to page 2
Now type a heading in Heading 1 style and press enter
type some dummy text (=rand(20) for example)
Continue steps 4 and 5 to insert more headings and dummy text.
Now return to the top (page 1) and update the TOC
So far so good. Everything working well
Now go to Print Preview (Ctrl+P)
Everything is still good
Escape back to the document
Go to Print Preview again
AGGGHHHH! All the page numbers have reverted to page 2
Happens every time without fail. Totally reproducible on all our office PCs.
I have seen many descriptions of this behavior on different forums and
not one solution. But I am like the proverbial dog with a bone - I will not let this issue go until MS gives me a solution !

HP Officejet 8500A Pro Plus changes internet layout when printing

My new 8500A Pro Plus changes the layout when I print from the internet. My option is set to "preserve the layout". For example, when there are three items in a row, it will print two on one row and push the third to another row by itself, even when there should be plenty of room for it to print as laid out, and even if I set the print to landscape. This shows in the print preview, and happens when I print from another computer. How can I get this to print properly?

From the front of the printer: Setup > Network > Restore Network Defualts.
Now, from the same Network menu, run the Wireless Setup Wizard.
If that does not work, tell me about your new router. What brand & model? What kind of encryption (WEP, WPA, etc)?
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.
I am employed by HP

Changing album order when printing in mosaic

Is there a way to change the order album artwork appears when using mosaic as a print option? I can't see that the order they're arranged correlates to anything.

You can't change the order of the photos in the built in photos app. There are other apps that give you much more flexibility than what the photos app allows. You may want to do a search in the App Store for one that suits your needs.
Read this to learn about the photo sorting order on the iPad. The gist of the article is this .... Copied from the article.
By default, photos sort according to the date modified (in ascending order).

CHANGE LABEL INFO WHEN PRINTING?? PHOTOSHOP CS4

How do I remove the @ 100% (RGB/8#) when I print labels on proofs?

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
Miller Monument Company wrote:
In the Print window under Printing Marks there are options to print Labels and Description.
It seems that what's being printed as [ ] Labels by Photoshop is the name of the document, which (if you'll notice the tab or window border on the document) includes the filename and all of the information you're describing (e.g., "Image.jpg @ 100% (RGB/8) *").
There seems to be no setting to affect the content or formatting of that document name, but with Photoshop who knows? Some rarely seen menu or even a registry tweak might exist.
Photoshop CS5 works exactly the same way, by the way.
By the way, the Tooltip help, which might have been of some use here, seems a bit lacking in that dialog. Some of the entries, including [ ] Labels, don't pop up Tooltips at all.

Cannot change the print margins when printing out my spreadsheet. Tried clicking on format and then Document but when I enter a number I always get " invalid number".

I cannot change the margins when printing out my spreadsheet. I clicked on the format then on document and got a entry box. But everytime I try entering a number to change the left margin ( tried .5 ) I get an " invalid number " response. I can print out the spreadsheet but always get a message telling me the margins may be too small and data may be clipped. Data doesn't get clipped but left part of the spreadsheet is right at the left side of the paper. Want to change the margin so I don't get that message.

Naming the spreadsheet app would do wonders for getting an answer.

Hi chuck,
If you ave created the form and then filling it yourself and saving the form, the filled data should be there when you reopen the same form.

When printing a PDF to PDF to make it non editable, it doesn't convert all the pages.

I have a user who routinely prints PDF's to PDF to make make the document non-editable. The issue is, when we print documents to PDF it will start "converting" the pages and about 5 seconds later a notification comes up saying that it's done. The document then comes up but only a couple of pages are converted.
The PDF's are typically large and usually contain a mix of landscape pages with stamps and comments. Would flattening the document serve the same purpose as printing a PDF to PDF?
Thank you

Thank you for your response. So I navigated to Advanced > Print Production and I see Flattener Preview. When I click on it I get a menu, I select all pages, hit "Ok", it then tells me that it cant be revearsed, I hit "Ok" and nothing happens. Document stays open, no message that it's complete, nothing. Is that how you flatten a document?
Thanks again.

Editing pdf document with prints with DPI

Because I can't afford Adobe Acrobat to edit pdf(s) I use Page and Word. I use photoshop to create digital art work and save them at 300 DPI. For the first book I created with an online publisher the art work looked good. However, I re-did the book and added more art work but the publisher kept telling my dpi was less than 200 and it would come out blurry. They were right. I received the proof and the proof was blurry and pixel lated. To try to correct this I tried a larger dpi but this didn't do anything. Has anyone had a similar problem with prints and dpi becoming less when the original was 300 dpi yet changes when trying to get published to less of 200. I know this complicated and maybe hard to follow. I don't know how to explain it better.

>Filling of Form Fields enabled
You're confusing "enabled" with "allowed".
If I were to guess I'd say you are looking at the security in File>Properties and seeing the word "allowed".
That just means if the creator of the file had added form fields, you would be "allowed" to fill them out.

Header Options when Printing to PDF

When printing a BEx web analyzer report to PDF, can you control the variables that print in the header? Currently, when we print, it prints ALL variables. Even those such as account numbers that are filtered in the Restricted Key figures. For some RKFs, this means that it prints over 100 accounts.
What we'd like to have is the header to include only the variables that the user can enter when executing the report. Basically, the same screen that appears when you click the "choose variables" button that is included in the "filter" section of the standard template.
Is this a setting that can be changes in either the standard template or the standard export template????
thanks in advance for any help
Rodney
Edited by: Rodney on May 8, 2008 10:02 PM

Vivek,
Yes, I was able to resolve this issue. The setting for printing variables/filters is not in the 0Analysis_Pattern standard template. It is in the template that is called from the Print button. This template is called 0Analysis_Pattern_Export. (if you are using the standard templates)
In this template, you can change the options to display Static filters, Dynamic filters, and/or variables. there is also an option for only displaying these variables only when a selection is made by the user.
Please let me know if you need more info.

Raise without Handler error when printing pdf files in Outlook

At work sometimes I'm asked to print emails with tons of attachments, but when I attempt to print the email with the attachments through outlook, anytime there is a PDF attached, I get the "Raise without Handler!" error and also the following window:
The only way I'm able to print the PDF file is by opening the file directly and then printing it from the actual Acrobat program. At work we use Acrobat 7.0 Professional.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as it's pretty time consuming when I'm printing an email with 20+ PDF attachments.

Hi Hisami,
Hope you are well.
Latest adobe & chrome versions. IE is an older version.
OS Windows home premium 7
Adobe Reader X1
Does adobe have chat?
Bit of background:
I have a monthly subscribtion with adope create and everything was working fine. Then I downloaded a free trial of I think acrobat so I could edit pdf and around the time I got a redirect virus on google chrome. So I deleted all adobe and used Norton power cleaner.
Then tried download (reinstall) adobe create. Now I can't open any of my many pdf files. Just get 'Raise without handler".
Thanks for looking into this,
Andrew

Print to PDF - using Snow Leopard (Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose

i have a PDF form that i created that is used as a custom proposal that my company sends out to potential clients. the form in its editable state is only used internally. we recently upgraded to snow leopard, but prior to the upgrade, we were able to fill the custom proposal form out using adobe reader, and, as you well know, we weren't able to save that edited document as a PDF with the custom form fields filled out. our work around using adobe reader was to print to a pdf using the adobe pdf printer in the printer dialog. with the addition of snow leopard, however, instead of choosing the adobe pdf printer, we were to choose PDF from the bottom left corner, then Save As PDF, and it would spit out an uneditable pdf that then allowed us to email it to the potential client without them being able to edit it as well as have an internal, digital copy for our records instead of having lots of paper floating around (i know this is also doable using security that disallows the client certain editing privileges, but printing to a pdf is much quicker and more efficient, and the pdf security isn't really that secure at its best).
in any case, i came across this gem of a post here on the support forums that installs another option from the PDF drop down on the bottom left of the print dialog menu that reads Save As Adobe PDF and is supposed to do exactly what i am trying to get it to do...print to a pdf file from adobe reader.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
once i updated to acrobat 9.2 (as the link above suggests 9.1), however, the Save As Adobe PDF does appear in the print dialog menu, but it still gives me the same error that acrobat 8 - 9 gave me while using Snow Leopard — Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save — and as i've already explained, you can't save an edited pdf form in reader (as i am the only one in the office with acrobat) and still keep the fields as you've entered them in. the only work around is to print to a pdf but is apparently having some recent problems.
using acrobat, however, i know that i can save the editable pdf as a new file with the fields customized as i have left them, but it still saves it as an editable pdf and the print to a pdf option still remains the best option...that way we have digital copies internally that are uneditable that can be printed at any time or emailed to the client.
how can i do print to a pdf, based on what i've written above, using snow leopard and acrobat and reader?

A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/
