Export to PDF - margins and font size

Post Author: LisaConsult
CA Forum: Exporting
Using Crystal XI I programmatically perform an export to PDF. The PDF appears to have larger margins around the document and a smaller font size of text when compared to printing the same report to the printer or PDF distiller. The application is distributed to client workstations. Is there anything that can be done to resolve the issue? Thanks

You may need to check the Font's. Even though you may be sending ( and I am just making this up ) Times New Roman 12, the PDF may be using Times New Roman 10.
Anyway, the export to PDF does not support all the fonts that you can use in CR.... Or at least it does not appear to.

Hi Thomas,
I saw from your response in the post above that you might be able to answer a question I have about the portal theme.
We are using several textedit elements in our portal, however the font size of text entered in those textedit fields is smaller than the standard global text in the portal. I have tried in vain to find the setting in the portal theme that controls textedit elements. Do you happen to know which one it is exactly?
Many thanks for any suggestions/help you might have

Is it possible to change theme and font size at run time?

I want to create a project where user can change the theme and font size at run time? Is there any facility to do so in captivate 7?

Not as far as I am aware. A lot of the text objects (such as captions) in Captivate are actually converted to images at publish time. So they're not able to be changed via stylesheets or variables.
You can use Advanced Actions to hide or show images or captions with different sized text. But not change the size of the text that is already in the caption.
Even if you make all of the on screen text dynamic so that it's coming from some variable value, you still cannot change the font size at runtime.

Can I change the Screen colour and font size?

Can I change the screen colour and font size?

Yes. Use an iPhone browser, such as iExplorer, to access your iPhone's file system. The screensaver photos are stored here;
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/AppleTV.framework/DefaultAnimalPhotos
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/AppleTV.framework/DefaultFlowerPhotos
Once you locate these files, you can replace the photos with your own or add more to the folders. Do not change the name of the the folder.

Selection properties panel - edit font type and font size

"selection properties" bottom panel - edit font type and font size
In design view
i can no longer find this option in CS5,
how can i change font type and font size of highlighted/selected block of text? like previous DW versions ?
by switching to CSS from html in "selection properties" bottom panel.
i see an option to do that using CSS. Is this the only option now ?
Thanks a lot for help.

What happened if on some pages of my site, there are JS code inserted to display content pulled from other remote host.
Will my own page or site CSS font setting override the JS code font & size setting as well ?
or those JS code can display content using their font selection setting independently ?
>> Yes. In fact it not only does it for the page you're working on, but for the whole site (that's the advantage of CSS vs properties)

I am trying to export the PDF file and conversion fails every time.

I am trying to export the PDF file and conversion fails every time. File is too large of too complex. What do I do? One file is about 55 mb and the other is 58 mb.

Try extracting part of the file and see if the extracted part can be Exported. If so, repeat with the next set of pages. When done, try to load all into the first file.

How to change font and font size of textarea item

hi -- I have several form pages which for the most part have text items. However, I do
have a few textarea items, and the font and font size of these are defaulting to
something different than the text items.
How can I change the font and font size of the textarea items, preferably in such a
way that it will apply to all textarea items in my app?
(And, to take a step back, where can I find the font and size definitions for these
items? I assume it's in the CSS (??) but don't really know what to look for.)
Thanks,
Carol

>
I do have one last thing I'd like to get resolved, if possible. Both the text and textarea items are
width 100 and height 1, but the textarea is a bit wider and taller than the text item. If possible,
I'd like to get at least the widths to match exactly, for aesthetics. (There was a much larger
discrepancy before the size and fonts matched...) Maybe it's just a characteristic of textareas
that they have that extra bit of width and height... I don't know
>
If you look at the generated HTML source you'll see that the APEX width value ends up in 2 different attributes: size for the text field and cols for the textarea. How each of these is transformed into the dimension used to render the control obviously differs, and how either is used will also differ across browsers and platforms. Where you want control over this the best idea appears to be to ignore the width value (APEX lets you blank this out, but resets it to 30 if the definition is subsequently edited) and explicitly set the width property in CSS, as I've now done on your example using HTML Form Element Attributes. This could also be done in a style sheet using the APEX-generated item IDs (P1_TEXT etc) as selectors.
The APEX height value is only applied to the textarea rows attribute: it has no effect on the text field. Again, how this works will be implementation-specific and is better handled explicity using CSS. (Anyway I'm doubtful about a 1 row high textarea? It doesn't affect the ability to enter more than 1 line of text. Looks confusing.)
cols and rows are required attributes for textareas, so APEX has to generate the attributes, but we're better off specifying width and height in CSS to override the browser's computed rendering.
(This is the first time I've put an app on apex.oracle.com... so hopefully it'll be smooth sailing for you.)Apart from not noticing that the region was cached and wondering why my changes weren't having any effect? Thought I was losing it... ;-)

Font and Font Size Disabled

In the Administration area where you edit settings for a
user, I have the value checked for "Allow users to apply fonts and
sizes". The Style Support value is set to "Document-level CSS". The
user cannot view the Font and Font size drop down options when they
connect to their website via Contribute and open a page for
editing. They sent me a screenshot confirming these 2 fields do not
display in Contribute, and if they try to go to the Format >
Font menu option it reads <disabled>. They are running on
version 2.01. Is there something I'm setting incorrectly for them
to have access to these 2 fields, or is this not a feature in the
older 2.01 version perhaps? Any advice is much appreciated! Thank
you.

When your font and size menus are disabled you have to
administer your website and change the Users and Roles settings.
When you ar not the administrator, you will have to ask the
administrator to do it for you.
1. in the menu got ot File, Administer websites
2. select Users and Roles, select your role, click Edit Role
Settings
3. adjust the settings Editing and Styles and Fonts

When I open 'new' in Yahoo to write a new mail, the page does not show tabs from bold through to indentation. Can only see font and font size tabs

The only tabs on display are '''font''' and '''font size''' - nothing else. Tabs from bold to indentation are not visible.
Moreover the arrows to go '''up''' and '''down''' on emails are 'invisible' too.

You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at one of these extensions:

Message was edited by: cuimei_liang

We are having a similar issue. The text in the Notes pane remains small (sub 8 point?) and the Font appears also to remain the same generic Sans Serif font. Here is a same that we put together after reinstalling Presenter 7 because of another, unrelated issue. What is causing this?

Chaging fonts and fonts size of controls

Dear All,
I have faced one problem for changing the fonts and font size for the controls. I have used
For changing fonts:-
Textfield.font.typeface="Fontname";
For changing Size:-
Textfield.font.size="100pt";
But I have used the code for changing the color of the fonts. And it works fine.
Textfield.fontColor="0,183,0";
So, Please help for solving the problems of changing fonts size and fonts.
Thank you

Why would you want to change the font and font size programmatically?
Can you describe why you are doing this ..perhaps there is a better approach.
