Format size

How do I create a PDF file in a 4 x 6 format? I can only do it so it is created in a standard 8.5 x 11 format.

Create a Custom Page size in the Adobe PDF Printer Driver that is 4 by 6 and use that as a basis for creating the pdf.

Format Size vs. Current Size

I hope I don't complicate this too much...here is the deal:
Captured Video:
Frame Size: 720 x 480 (which makes no sense to me because it is a 16:9 video)
Vid Rate: 29.97
Compressor: DV/DVcPRO - NTSC
Data Rate: 3.6 MB/sec
Pixel Aspect: NTSC - CCIR 601
So I take that video and clip here and clip there and then export out of FC using the "Current Settings" (gives me a .mov file). When I open the clip up in Quicktime it displays normally for me on my Mac. It says the Format is: DV, 720 x 480 (853 x 480), Millions 16-bit Integer (Little Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz. But the weird part to me is that it says the current size is 853 x 480 (which is 16:9).
When I compress it down to an MPEG4 with Compressor it looks good on the Mac but as soon as I upload it and play it through a browser it reverts back to a 4:3 squished look. Also if I play it through QT on a PC it does the same thing. However, I can open the same file on the Mac and it looks just fine. It seems the difference has something to do with the Format Size vs. the Current Size.
I'm stuck...I want this to look good but it just is not happening. What am I missing?

720 x 480 NTSC is rectangle pixels for TV displays. 853x480 is square pixels for computer displays. When you compress to MPEG-4 in Compressor go to the Geometry tab and set the size to 853x480. The Pixel Aspect will automatically change to square.
You may if you want too, turn on Frame Control and set the Resize Filter to Better. This will give a better size conversion and add a little time to the MPEG-4 compression.

Formatting size and resolution for PDF documents

How do I format size and resolution for PDF documents with Adobe ReaderX

No way that I know of with just the free Reader.

Text Format size not changing results -- why?

Seems like this should be pretty straight forward, and I must have done this many times before with success. Am I missing something obvious?
The text shows up, but it needs to display bigger than it is. It's showing up consistently at about size 10, no matter what I set the size to, even "size = 100" ...
public function StimLetter(data:Object) {
               // format
               var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
               format.font = "Verdana";
               format.color = 0x000000;
               format.size = 100;
               // text
               stimText = new TextField();
               stimText.text = data.strng;
               stimText.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.CENTER;
               stimText.defaultTextFormat = format;
               addChild(stimText);
data.strng is simply a String coming from an array.
Am I missing something here?!

perhaps it's relevant to mention that the code above is the bulk of a "StimLetter" class that is importing into another class, and processed this way:
public var letterArray:Array = ["B", "C", "D", "F", "G", "H", "J", "K", "L", "M", "N","P", "Q", "R", "S", "T", "U", "V", "X", "Z"];
// lots more code ...
var stimID:int;
var strng:String;
for (var si=0 ; si < letterArray.length; si++) {
     stimID = si + 1;
     strng = letterArray[si];
     this["stimLetter"+stimID] = new StimLetter({stimID: stimID, strng: strng});
     this["stimLetter"+stimID].x = displayCenter.x;
     this["stimLetter"+stimID].y = displayCenter.y;
     stimArray.push(this["stimLetter"+stimID]);
     container.addChild(stimArray[si]);

NEED HELP...FORMATING SIZE PROBLEM

I've been succesfully building and formating projects that only lasted 30 minutes.
I'm having some problems with my latest project (1 hour and 20 minutes)...
I did compress with "90 minutes best quality".
and when I import in dvdsp, the file size is 6 GB.
Now it won't format into a blank dvd-R.
I am kinda new at this and need to put it on a dvd for a client.
Could somebody tell me what should I do ?
Should I compress again or can I still burn it with another form of blank dvd?
I need help...
Thank you.

Make sure to select A.Pack/Dolby (make sure that file is made) and use that in the project, not the .aif file

Video formats, sizes, best to share in pods

I'm looking for the following advice.
1. Best format to upload video in to use in the "share pods"
2. Suggested max file size
3. I did upload .SWF files but it doesn't seem like I can control the video once I call it up on the share pod...?
4. I did upload .MP4 files. This gave me control but the files are like 50MB and seem to jam everything up.
Any help and ord suggestions would be appreciated. I have 3 videos that I need to share - 8 mins, 4 mins, and 2 mins each. I also plan on recording these meetings as I do them.
Chris

1. Personally I stick with FLV videos, as they perform well and let me keep control of them in the room.
2. I try to keep the videos around 640 X 480, but you can usually go a little bigger if needed. Also I try to keep the videos to a streaming rate of 800 kbps or less.
3. SWF files are not the optimal format, for more reasons than you experienced...
4. MP4 videos have had the same problem for me. They are just to large and don't perform the way I want.

Tab format/size in JTextArea not working

Howdy, I am writing a program that uses Runtime.exec() method, I get the error stream from the new process, etc... all that works fine, but as I use append(String s) where s = StreamOutput+"\n";, the output is not formatted in the JTextArea. However, if I do System.out.println(s), the output is perfectly lined up.
I recall reading somewhere about setting the tab size or something or other about a similar problem, but now cannot find the answer in the forums or the docs. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Brian

here is the chunk of code in question:
String[] commandLine = {profile.getCompilerPath(),filePath};
               Process p = rt.exec(commandLine);
               BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getErrorStream()));
               String s = reader.readLine();
              while(s!=null)
                    writer.write(s2.toString());
                    System.out.println(s);
                    s = reader.readLine();
               writer.write(null);writer is an instance of an innner calss of the gui, and its only method is write(String s). write does this: txtAreaOutput.append("\n" + s); if s !=null. having messed with tab sizes etc to no avail, I am at a loss. the output I am trying to capture is from the javac.exe compiler, imagine that! and the little carats that point to the errors don't line up with the code in the JTextArea. what's worst, notice the call to System.out.println(s) after the call to writer. this was to check to see that the output was coming out right, and there it is PERFECT!!! ahhhh. Please help if you can.
Is there an issue that the JTextArea is not using a monospaced font, and if so, how do I fix that, or is there some other component with similar funcitonality that will work? Thank you for your time and mental sweat.. I am at my wit's end here :(

Camcorder tapes converted to watch on Apple TV-convert to which format/size

A friend has asked me to transfer several old sony camcorder tapes to DVD. He also has an Apple TV and wants to store the tape footage as a digital file, so he can watch on Apple TV.
I have a Mac Pro and FCE4. What is the recommended file format and size I should produce video files for Apple TV. On a large cinema screen tv, the footage has to be of a reasonable quality. I was thinking about 2 - 3 GB per 90 mins of footage. I am new to producing files for Apple TV, so any help much appreciated.
Thanks in advance, Matt

I could be wrong but I thought that an AppleTV output format was built-in with Apple's video editing software? If you use that you should have no issues.

PDF Page Sizes - Large format sizes missing (Acrobat Std 11)

Hi All,
We are an Architectural practice that has recently purchased a number of Acrobat Standard 11, licences. This is to supplement the 6 creative suites we already have.
We have discovered however, that Standard does not have large format page sizes available such as A2, A1, A0 etc. Why? I have installed these as standalone licences on 5 other computers to date, all with the same missing information.
The Adobe suites we have are standard and only have acrobat 9, they have these sizes, so how can a higher version have them missing?
This problem is all over the web including these forums. The latest i could find was nearly a year ago. I am hoping Adobe has created a patch to fix this problem since.
Attempts to add custom sizes to match the suites indicates they already exist! We can only create the sizes we need if we use different names, which is problematic for us as many of our settings look for this name to setup our printing.
I would appreciate any assistance in fixing this problem as
Thank you.

I have the same problem. There is a reasonably good workaround. You can permanently define as many additional pages sizes as you needed including non-standard sizes. I have one that is 36" X 90".
Here's how (I'm using Widows 7):
1. From the Start Dialog, choose Devices and Printers in the lower right.
2. On the Devices and Printers control panel right-click on Adobe PDF and select Printing Preferences
3. On the Adobe PDF Printing Preferences dialog click the "Add" button
4. On the Add Custom Paper Size dialog enter a name that will make sense to you like "A1" or, in my case "36 X 90"
5. On the Add Custom Paper Size dialog select the correct unit of measure and enter the width and height
6. On the Add Custom Paper Size dialog click the "Add/Modify" button
7. The new size is now available in the Adobe PDF Page Size drop-down. Select it. Click "OK"
8. On the Devices and Printers control panel right-click on Adobe PDF and select Printing Preferences
9. On the Adobe PDF Printing Preferences dialog you will see that the new size is NOT selected. Select it again. This time it will become the current selection. Making a paper size the current select may not be needed for all applications.
After step 6, if you open an application the new size should appear in the paper size drop-down from Print > Properties > Paper/Quality tab > Advanced button. It may also appear in the drop-down of the Adobe PDF Setting tab.
I hope this helps.

Format size of paragraph border

Is there a way to adjust the size of the box that appears when making a paragraph border?
I'm not referring to the width of the line itself.
For example, if I have a rather short line that I want to highlight with a box, and when I make a paragraph border for it, the box extends all the way across the page. I'd rather have the box fit to the size of the line.
I know I can make a text box to approximate this, but it would be simpler to do this with a paragraph border.

FCE changes movie format (size) after render

In FCE, I imported a 768x432 .mov file and then dragged it to the timeline. After rendering it, the new size becomes 405x227. I can tell this by selecting Export --> QuickTime Conversion and looking at the current size. I verified that the file was definitely 768x432 prior to the render.
Why does FCE change the size of the movie after a render? This obviously affects the quality if I have to resize it when I'm ready export ( I tested this, and it definitely affected the quality). Is there a setting that I can change that will preserve the size of the movie during the whole edit process? I'd hate to lose quality. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Convert your media to the correct frame size and codec before bringing it into FCE.

How to format the size of a page

Hi all!
I'd like to use iBooks Author only to make a nice pdf which should then be printed.
How can I define the format/ size of a page (should be german A5)?

DocFlex/Javadoc 1.5.6, a multi-format doclet development tool and more

DocFlex/Javadoc is both a multi-format Javadoc Doclet and a rapid doclet development tool, which allows easy creation of professional quality Java API documentation generated by Javadoc in various output formats.
More in this article:
Key Features
Availability
This Version
What is DocFlex?
Main Concepts
Other Applications
Links
KEY FEATURES
Template-driven doclet architecture
- Actual doclets are created in the form of special templates interpreted by the DocFlex Doclet, which is the template interpreter / output generator wrapped in the form of a Javadoc Doclet.
- The high quality graphic Template Designer allows you to visually design most of things, whose development was possible so far only by direct Java coding.
- The templates are designed independently on a particular output format. All formatting is specified in some universal way using properties of template components. During the generation, it is rendered with the suitable features available in the selected output format.
- The elaborated support of template parameters (including multivalued list parameters). The parameters are defined and accessed within templates to adjust dynamic properties of template components. Most of options previously used to control an ordinary doclet now simply become template parameters!
- The possibility to call templates from one another. This feature (along with the template parameters) makes possible re-using the same templates for different tasks as well as organizing template libraries.
Data processing
- The entire Doclet API is represented in the form of a virtual XML document (called Doclet DSM), on which the designing and processing of all templates is based.
- Sophisticated capabilities for data querying and sorting based on an extension of XPath.
- Full support of new Java 5.0 language features: Generic Types, Enums, Annotations.
- Simultaneous support of Java 1.4 and Java 5.
Creating hyperlinks
- Generation of an extensive network of hyperlinks interconnecting the whole documentation.
- The hyperlinks can be generated in all output formats that support them (this currently includes HTML and RTF).
- The universal way of defining documentation cross-links based on the link/target keys specified in templates.
- In RTF, the cross-links can be generated in the form of page number references, which effectively makes them usable even in the printed documentation.
- In HTML, the possibility of loading several frame windows from a single hyperlink at once.
Universal support of various formatting techniques
- text formatting: fonts, colors, borders
- paragraph formatting: margins, pagination control, borders, colors
- border formatting: styles (solid, double, dashed, dotted), thickness, colors
- tables: arbitrary cell layouts, borders, nested tables
- lists: bulleted, numbered, delimited
- document fields (RTF): page number, number of pages, TOC, etc.
- page formatting: size, orientation, margins, headers/footers
- formatting styles
- rendering of embedded HTML, which means interpreting in non-HTML output formats (such as RTF) the HTML tags embedded in text data (e.g. documentation comments). Almost all HTML tags practically usable in doc-comments are supported.
Inserting images
- statically specified in templates
- dynamically, obtained by <img> tags found in Java comments
- supported image formats: GIF, PNG, JPG, WMF, EMF, BMP
Output formats
- HTML (both framed multi-file and single-file output)
- RTF (version 1.6 - supported since Word 2000).
- TXT (plain text), which may be particularly useful for various utilizations of the Java code information provided by the Doclet API generate XML files by it, or SQL files to import into a database).
Standard Template Set
- The ready-to-use Standard Template Set included in all editions of DocFlex/Javadoc allows you to immediately generate:
(*) The framed HTML Java API documentation similar to that generated by the standard Javadoc.
(*) The same documentation packed in a single HTML file.
(*) The unmatched quality RTF JavaDoc.
- Special features supported by standard templates:
(*) Excluding classes/methods/fields by custom tags and annotations.
(*) Selective omitting of package qualifiers.
(*) Selective documenting of custom tags (similar to -tag option of Standard Doclet).
- By modifying the standard templates, you can quickly customize the generated documentation according to your needs.
Doclet GUI
- Besides command line options, DocFlex Doclet supports an alternative user-friendly way to control the template-based doclets interactively -- the high quality Doclet GUI.
- The Doclet GUI starts with the Generator Dialog, where you can specify all general settings (such as the main template, the output format and the output directory), start the generation, track its progress and stop at any moment you need.
- The grid-tree-based Parameter Inspector invoked from the Generator Dialog for a selected template allows you to view the descriptions of all template parameters controlling the doclet and set their values according to the parameter data types.
- The generator options specific for the selected output format can be set in the corresponding Format Option Inspector (also invoked from the Generator Dialog).
- Once the generation is finished (or cancelled), you can start it again with different settings or a new main template without restarting the whole Javadoc.
Integrations
- With any system that runs Javadoc (in particular, see below)
- Apache Ant
- Apache Maven 2
- Eclipse
For lots more information, see DocFlex/Javadoc homepage: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_javadoc/]
AVAILABILITY
DocFlex/Javadoc comes in two editions:
(1) The full edition called "DocFlex/Javadoc" as it is. This is commercial software, which includes all the implemented functionality.
(2) The reduced freeware edition called "DocFlex/Doclet". It includes only the output generator and can be used as an interpretor of any custom templates. It also includes the standard template set, which allows you to instantly use it as an HTML doclet (similar to the standard one, however with some special features) plus an excellent quality RTF doclet.
Both editions are available for downloads on the page: [http://www.filigris.com/downloads/]
THIS VERSION
New features:
- The template interpretor works 15-20% faster
- Improvement of RTF output
- Multi-valued (list) template parameters
- Custom elements
- Standard Templates: Selective documenting of custom tags (similar to -tag option of standard doclet)

WHAT IS DOCFLEX?
DocFlex is an innovative technology for development of high quality template-driven documentation/report generators by any kind of data obtained from various software applications via the Java APIs they provide.
MAIN CONCEPTS
The whole DocFlex technology is based on four generalizations:
(1) The mapping of an entire Java API onto a virtual XML-like representation made of some elements and attributes so as to process any such a representation in a universal way using techniques borrowed from the field of XML, like XPath (or more precisely, a conceptual analogue of XPath with some extensions not present in it).
(2) The abstract formatting concept based on four layouts (flow of text, flow of paragraphs or paragraph-like objects, tables and lists), which can be rendered in most modern document formats (e.g. HTML, RTF, XSL-FO etc.)
(3) The automatic generation of hyperlinks (or their page number reference equivalents) by matching the sets of keys produced from certain natural properties of the things (entities) being documented and hyper-linked.
(4) The representation of the object controlling structure of the output generator (made on the first three principles) in the form of a plain-text template with a possibility to create and edit such templates using a graphic Template Designer, which visualizes the controlling objects (now becoming template components) in a form resembling the output they will produce.
OTHER APPLICATIONS
In fact, DocFlex/Javadoc is not the only application of DocFlex technology. The following is a summary of other DocFlex software:
DocFlex/XML
The SDK and runtime environment for rapid development and execution of template-driven automatic documentation/report generators by any data obtained from XML files.
This is currently the most complex and advanced application of DocFlex technology. Actually, this tool can be considered a powerful alternative to XSLT. At least, it is definitely able to do what XSLT apparently not (for example, see XSDDoc below). We will publish a more detailed comparison DocFlex/XML versus XSLT with the next DocFlex/XML release, which is coming very soon.
DocFlex/XML home page: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_xml/]
DocFlex/XML | XSDDoc
A template set for DocFlex/XML that implements a high quality W3C XML Schema documentation generator in HTML and RTF output formats.
For more details, please see: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_xml/xsddoc/]
DocFlex/XML | WSDLDoc
A similar template set for DocFlex/XML that will implement a high-end WSDL documentation generator.
This product is not released yet.
DocFlex/Together
A template-driven documentation generator for [Borland Together|http://www.borland.com/us/products/together/] (which is a UML modeling tool).
This is the earliest application of DocFlex technology and probably the most beautiful one. It works only with Together Architect 1.x, which is now obsolete. Unfortunately, since Together 2005, Borland eliminated any open APIs (for unknown reasons). Because of this, further development of DocFlex/Together was impossible.
DocFlex/Together home page: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_together/]
See also examples of the UML documentation generated with it: [http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_together/examples/]
The future DocFlex/UML is going to generate something like this as well.
DocFlex/UML
A template-driven UML documentation generator based on [Eclipse EMF|http://www.eclipse.org/emf/]. This tool is in early development stage yet. In a sense, it will continue DocFlex/Together with the focus on integration with other UML tools that use Eclipse EMF.

Now, DocFlex/Javadoc v1.4 has been released specifically dedicated to Linux (Mac OS X) support:
(*) Some early bugs have been fixed, which prevented it working properly under Linux.
(*) A special RTF option was introduced to generate OpenOffice.org friendly RTF (see below)
(*) Improved support for external document viewers.
(*) Now, DocFlex/Javadoc software includes the shell script files prepared to quickly install and launch it under Linux
New RTF option
A new RTF output option "Tune output for MS Word� has been introduced. This option, actually, allows switching off that very tuning (which until now was the default mode) to produce an RTF friendly to open with other non MS Word applications, e.g. OpenOffice.org Writer under Linux.

Excise invoice printing is required in preprinted stationary format.

Dear All,
I developed a new program & script for excise invoice printing. The requirement is as under: Page layout will be such where 10 line items( as maintained in billing document) can be printed in each page i.e. if billing document have 25 line items (including Finished goods & accessories) , so it should be printed in 3 pages. In each pages, page no should be printed first, then consignee address, customer address, Date, SO number, Tin no etc. Those above details should come in header portion of each page. Then first 10 line items can be printed. If there are more line items, then next 10 items get printed in next page & so on. In the very last page only assessable amount, Tax, VAT, Educes amt & Gross amt along with Excise number, removal time, type if invoice, payment mode etc (in footer section) should be printed. If billing document have only 10 line items, it will be printed in a single page.
I have declared First page & next page only. In each page I have declared required page window according to window size of preprinted stationary format. For that I have used DINA4 page format( size 210 / 297 MM). But actual height of stationary format is 12 inch ( 305 MM).
In print preview it is displaying supereb. All required data is being displayed properly. But when I am taking printout from Dot-matrix printer, from second page onwards it start printing two lines prior to actual position (two lines going up).
I did some permutation to adjust it. But I can not find a proper resolution to it. My thinking is that it is only printer setting problem. Also in PC level in printer setting I used custom paper size declaring actual paper width & height.
Please advise whether it is script/ program problem or printer setting problem.
Regards
Srimanta

Dear Bapujee/Santosh/Srimanta,
I know this is a very peculiar problem. Actually the SAP paper size definations are over-ruled by spool server's print manager's defination i.e. the setting of the PC's finally works.
Simple solution is create a paper size in the PC and set the printer with the new paper size.
Now, you will encounter another problem. The user may using the printer for other paper size printings also. To avoid the changing of PC's paper size every time the user prints different size, you can adopt this :
In the spool server (i.e. the PC with printer), create different printers with required paper size and name this printer with some meaniful names. Now, in R/3, while printing with LOCL output device the user can select the required printer.
This can be done for network printers also.
All the best.
With Regards,
Abhijeet.
