How can I save a Adobe document to print duplex for other users.

I want to create a doc using Adobe and be able to set it to print duplex by other users without the user needed to go into printer settings.
All the user has to do is click print on there computer and the doc. will print duplex. The users have Adobe Reader installed.

It is possible to set a default value for the Adobe Reader or Acrobat print dialog on a document basis. After the document is created, go to Document Properties (Ctrl-D), and select the Advanced tab. Go to the DuplexMode setting. Normally, this is set to Simplex, i.e. single sided printing. You can also set it to either Duplex Flip Long Edge or Duplex Flip Short Edge depending upon your needs. Duplex Flip Long Edge is normally used for printing of “portrait” orientation content with Duplex Flip Short Edge typically used for printing of “landscape” orientation content. Then save the PDF file (typically, “save as” should be used).
Important notes: Obviously, this only works if the PDF file is being opened by one of the applications that even bothers to look at these settings. Adobe Reader and Acrobat do. Don't count on MacOS Preview or other applications to do so! Furthermore (and somewhat obviously), this setting is only observed with print devices that directly support duplex printing. And finally, this does not force the user to print duplex. It simply pre-populates the print dialog; the user can change the setting.

  • How can I save a pages document as a stationary for email

    What I wopuld really like to do is email a newsletter in the form of an email, not an attached document. Simular to how blogger allows. Any advice? is this possible with pages or in another Apple app?

    There are two ways of saving a pages document into word or DOC format. In pages, you'll want to go to the share tab. There will be two options that of interest to you. The first is Export. This will give you the option of many types of formats. The second option is an expediated choice for when you want to send something in DOC format in an email, provided you are using the Mail feauture in your mac. Export tab again and send via mail. It will give you the options once again for what format you would like to send it.

    Word can't read .pages documents. You have to export the Pages  document to a Word document. File > export or share > Word
    Download the Pages User Guide from your Pages Help menu to learn more about how Pages works.

    How can I save my word documents in ICLOUD

    You can't directly, as Microsoft don't include iCloud support in their apps.
    You'd have to open your Word file in Apple's Pages and save it to iCloud from there.

  • How can I save filled Adobe Form?

    Hallo experts,
    I use Adobe Forms in my Webdypro application.
    In Form setPDFSourse set dynamically (read from SAP as byte[]) , I do not know the Context.
    How can I save filled Adobe Form, because I must show the Form by next Step in anothe window? 
    Thank you very much!

    This sounds to me like a client-side problem whith adobe reader plugin in your browser. What is your reader version?
    You can try the following to check if there is any content in the byte[]:
    String s = wdContext.currentContextElement().getPdfData().length + "";
    byte[] test = s.getBytes();
    final IWDCachedWebResource resource =
                   WDWebResource.getWebResource(
                        test,
                        WDWebResourceType.TXT);
    try {
         final IWDWindow window =
         wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createExternalWindow(
              resource.getAbsoluteURL(),
              "Window title",
              false);
         window.open();
    } catch (Exception e) {
         wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException(
         new WDNonFatalException(e),
         false);

    Go to destination is unsupported in DPS. You should be using go to url with a navto: command.

  • How can I save an Adobe Flash video to my hardrive?

    My son was recently featured in a TV segment, and the link is to a flash video on the station's website. How can I save this so we'll have this after the link is no longer valid?

    You may not be able to. Most news networks use scripting to prevent downloads of their video feeds (copyirght laws and stuff)
    You can try Ant Video Downloader for Firefox (it's NOT available for IE, but it IS for Firefox and Chrome)
    If it doesn't work, contact news station. That's what I do. My brother is on the news from time to time bbecause of his work and they simply provide me with embed code to the videos so I can put them on his website. Here's why I mention this: I was told by the ABC, CBS and NBC affiliates that they NEVER delete those videos. Only an act of god destroying their servers will ever remove them, and even then they have backups.

  • How can I save a pages document with a new name

    I often make changes to pages and numbers documents and save them with a new name. This seems to be impossible under LION. To remove the save as command is very shortsited. The only way I found to get around that is to save the changed document as a templete, remove the changes I made to the original document, Open a new document using the templete I just created, saving that document under the name I would have created using the save as command if it was still there, and then delete the templete. How in the **** is this better? Lion has disrupted almost everything I used to do in Snow Leopard.
    The only thing that syncs with mobile me is email. Everything else quit working. I reported the mobile me issue to Apple and am waiting for them to contact me.

    1.- Try to go to the File Menu
    2.- Then hold down the Option Key
    3.- You will see in the File Menu (while you press the option key) the "save as" option.
    4.- Choose the "save as" option.
    5.- Choose the file where you want to save your document (you can choose any folder or sub foler in your mac or even iCloud). If you want to, you can even rename the open document where you are working in.
    I hope this would help

  • How can I save a Word document as a PDF whilst retaining hyperlinks?

    I know that Word can't do it (not on Mac anyway).
    What other software (ideally free) can do it though?

    You're right - it doesn't work on a Mac: not even with Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    That's why I have to use Word for Windows running under Parallels. I'm now running Windows Pro 64-bit and Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and hyperlinks are fuly functional using the Windows version. It's not a bug, it's just that Adobe hasn't invested much effort into support Acrobat/Word on a Mac, I suppose.
    If you're willing to make the investment in Windows, Office 2013 (which I'm now using) and Acrobat Pro XI, you can easily save PDF files with active hyperlinks. I notice that "AussieDJ" says that it works in Pages - although I have Pages, I've not tried it as Pages is a joke as far as I'm concerned.
    Just one more thing you can accomplish on a Windows machine that you can't do on a Mac...

  • How can I save a scanned document after updating to Mavericks?

    Since updating to mavericks on my IMAC, I can not save a scan using my HP photo smart 3180 scanner.  I get an error message: the file could not be written to. Check properties for the file to make sure it in not in read-only.  I had no problem saving scanned documents before the update.

    Not true, Image Capture can Save in PDF Format
    and to anywhere you like, including Preview which can handle multiple PDF doc's.
    If you do not like or do not wish to spend a little time figuring out Image Capture, then try scanning with Preview like HP is suggesting in the link that baltwo posted.  

  • How can i edit a adobe document

    hi

    And even Acrobat's editing capabilities are very limited. For major edits, it's usually better to edit the original file (the one from which the PDF file was made) and produce a new PDF.
    I am assuming that by "a adobe document" you mean a PDF file.
