Hiding the layout during printing

Hi Experts,
Is there any way to hide the layout during printing? I have developed a PDF form with complex layout. I want our Customers view the form in print preview and see that all the values are correctly aligned within the boxes before printing. But they print this form on a pre-printed paper (which already has the layout) so I want to make sure that only fields which are binded to a data item are printed and not the layout and static texts. Is this possible?
Regards,
Srini.

Hi,
Try this code:
<object>.presence = "visible"; //this makes the object visible in the form
<object>.relevant = "-print"; //this object will not be printed
The relevant property indicates whether an object should appear when the form is printed.
● +print (default for visible objects)
Forces a particular object to appear when the form is printed,
regardless of the objects presence property setting.
● -print (default for invisible or hidden objects)
Forces an object not to appear when the form is printed,
regardless of the objects presence property setting.
Regards
Srikanth

How to Extract Data from IT 0025 and Modify the layout for Printing

Hi All,
Query----> My client has a requirement to output the appraisal data in a given format from IT 0025. (The entire appraisal done for the employee)
I would like to know from where this data will be picked up is this data stored in some cluster table and how can we change the layout for printing in the desired format?
Note: PA and PD is Integrated. When we create appraisal in IT 0025 no record gets created in PA0025, in which table does the record gets created and how to retrieve the data?

hello,
normally stored in pa0025.
are you using the old or new appraisal system?
if you are using the new one. its not stored in pa0025 it is done with relationships..

Adjusting the layout to print all the text

Could anyone tell me how to adjust the layout in Pages? I've developed a marketing postcard and some of my copy on the far right of the card is covered by a light grey frame that I believe is the layout. All the margins are set to zero and I've tried to pick the layout from the ruler, to no avail. How do I move the layout (light grey frame) so I can print all my copy?
fairly new user to Apple, iMac G5 and loving it Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Hello Evelyn
From your description I'm not sure exactly what you are referring to. If you select View > Show Layout and then drag the corner of your window so that more than your page is shown on the right. You should see a dark grey box on the right hand side of the window. This is just so you can see the edge of your page.
You will find that your page is outlined by a thin light grey border. This represents the area of your page that your printer cannot print on. Pages picks this up from the print driver for the printer you have selected in Page Setup or the default printer. This can sometimes be quite large - on my printer it is 0.25cm.
Within the light grey border is the printable area of your page. You will notice that on a new blank document this consists of boxes for the header, a single column of text and a footer. You can control the dimensions of these by adjusting the relevant settings in the Inspector.
From your description of margins set to zero I suspect that you are referring to the non-printable area but you should see it around all of the page not just on the right hand side. Your printer may support borderless printing but how the OS X driver and Pages interact with this facility will be very device specific. You could try fiddling with the setup but the simplest solution would be to adjust the layout so that your copy fits within the printable boundary. It is pretty easy to do.
I hope this helps you but if you are talking about something else, please reply with a more detailed description.

What I see in Preview does not print, only the Layout Topics print out, not the type in the body of the document

I have received a template document. The sender filled in with black type, making the document 9 pages. When I bring the document up in Pages I see everything, the preformated words, and the type. However, when I print it, only the preformated (or template) words appear in blue. I want the entire document so that I can edit it. I checked "help" and from what I can read, everything should print. I am a new user, both to Mac and Pages. Can you help me? Thank you in advance.

When you get a problem like this check if the problem is isolated, so create something in another application like TextEdit and try printing that to see if it occurs there as well which would indicate a problem with the printer.
Further check that you have updated everything to the latest version.
How new is new user? Since you are still on OSX 10.6.8, it seems not that new.

Hiding the desktop during presentations

I often do presentations on a beamer and have at times a messy desktop. My question is, is it possible to hide the desktop, or make it temporarily invisible so people do not see what is all on my desktop. I know I could clean it up, but somehow I like to be able to hide it as it would support my work and thinking style better.
If there is a application to do this a free one would be best.

The freeware utility [TinkerTool|http://www.bresink.com/osx/TinkerTool.html] can do this (in Finder options). TinkerTool has lots of other features as well.
great and thanks, I have TT but hardly use its features, and ddi not realise this was possible.
However, I need to relaunch the finder so not a quick solution. will keep it in mind if nothing else pops up. thanks for thinking with me.

Page Layout when Printing slides from Keynote

I don't often print my Keynote presentations, but I would like to be able to print FOUR slides on one sheet (landscape format) with one slide in each quadrant or corner. All I can select --as far as I can tell-- is a single column with all 4 slides minutely scaled down the page. The slides are far toooooooo small to read. CAN I CHANGE THE LAYOUT FOR PRINTING SO THAT HAVE 2 COLUMNS OF 2 SLIDES EACH? Many thanks for your suggestions!

When I do Print > Handouts > 4 slides per page, it puts the slides stacked on top of one another (ie 1 column of slides, 4 rows). I assume you would want to have 2 columns of slides and two rows. I don't know how to do this in Keynote, but if you are in Keynote, just do a File > Export > PDF. If you are printing in color, I'd select Image Quality > Best. Once you have the PDF of the presentation, open it with Preview. From Preview, do a File > Print. When the Print "window" comes up, you select your landscape orientation. At the bottom of the window, you will see a dropdown option that says "Images per page" and select 4. This should do the trick.
Be careful when you do the export from Keynote to PDF. There are a lot of options to include or exclude page numbers, builds, etc. in the PDF.
Hope this helps.

Crystal Report print layout error during print preview

Hi Everyone,
When I try print preview a marketing document, it will work the first time, and then when I try to print preview again it brings up a window asking me to login into the database with the sa username and password.
When putting in the correct password, the login fails.
When I click cancel, SAP hangs up and requires a restart.
All print layouts were done in Crystal Reports, and imported via the report layout manager.
This occurs on all marketing documents where there is a crystal print layout.
Anyone will be able to help me with this?
Thanks
Best Regards

Hi Rahul,
Your solution worked. Thank you very much.
I also did not include a stored procedure into the connection that was needed in the layout.
This could have also added to the problem (for future reference).

How do I get the layout guides (A,B,C column headers and 1,2,3 Row Headers) to print with my spreadsheet?

How do I get the Layout Guides (A,B,C column headers and 1,2,3 Row Headers) to print on my spreadsheet? They are invaluable for discussing the data with my clients over the phone.
They appear while I am editing, but don't print with the spreadsheet. I know how to do it in Excel, but I am transitioning to Numbers. I can't imagine I have to type them into their own columns and rows. It must be a difference in vernacular that I can't find the solution in the User Guide. Can anyone help?

Hi ktjobauer,
Numbers is not Excel and Excel is not Numbers. Numbers is WYSIWYG (at least in File > Print and the actual printout).
I can't imagine I have to type them into their own columns and rows.
No, you don't. You can use the charm of Numbers to create cell references for your Excel clients.
In this Numbers Table, I have added some extra Columns that you can hide later.
Column B =COLUMN(A2)
Column C =HLOOKUP(B2,'Table 1-1' :: $1:$2,2,FALSE) [explanation later]
Column D =ROW(B2)
Column E =C2&D2
Add those formulas to the first Body Row (below the Header Row) and Fill Down.
Column C refers to another Table which you need only create once, to convert a Column number to a letter:
and so on from 1-26, A-Z.
You can move the second Table to another Sheet to hide it. Formulas will automatically adjust to keep the links between Sheets.
Now in the first Table, select and Hide Columns B,C,D. Formulas will continue to work with hidden cells:

Ian.

How do I get the "auto portrait/landscape" option to show during printing in Adobe Reader Touch

When I print using Adobe Reader Touch, the "auto portrait/landscape" options does not show up. As a result, all pages in a document are printed in the same orientation even if they are not all of the same orientation in the file itself. I don't believe this is a printer issue because if I use Adobe Reader X (v. 10.1.6) on the same computer/printer, the auto option does show up and the documents print as desired. I use Windows 8. As the video quality of Adobe Reader X is extremely blurry in Windows 8, I would like to be able to use Adobe Reader Touch exclusively. How do I get the latter to give me the "auto portrait/landscape" option during printing?
Thank you,
Pelle

Hello Pelle,
Thanks for the feedback. Our printing code in Adobe Reader Touch doesn't have that capability right now, but since you mention it we should probably do what you're requesting by default. I'll put that into our backlog for a future update, but I can't say yet when it will be available.
In the interim, if you have pages that are different orientations, you can print them in blocks manually to get what you want, but I understand that's a hassle.

Using the thermometer during form layout

I'm trying to write a script that uses the thermometer object to display the progress of a form's layout. I have a function that uses a loop to show/hide 60 instances of a repeating subform (line items) based on a user-selected date. showing/hiding the instances of the subform takes quite a bit of time (about 90+ seconds) so I would like to use the thermometer to show the progress so that users would know that something is actually happening. Any suggestions or examples would be greatly appreciated...
thanks,
~Ariel
