How do I change the print orientation for PDFs with mixed orientation pages?

I'm sure this is a fairly basic and easily solvable issue, but I've been searching for a solution and can't find one for the life of me.
The issue: I'm printing a PDF that will be bound book-style, and the file contains pages with mixed orientations (both portrait and landscape). When I print the file, the landscape pages point the wrong way, to the left of the spine, when they should be pointing down to the right of the spine. I've adjusted the print settings for multiple test rounds, and nothing seems to work. Here's a visualization of the problem (apologies for the bad Paint art):
What the book is doing now when it prints:
What I need it to do:
Here's the caveat: I cannot just rotate all the landscape pages counter-clockwise in Acrobat for ease of printing, because it would remove the ability to scroll through the file quickly in Reader or a Web browser, and the same file needs to be both easily readable digitally AND print correctly.
Is this adjustment a print setting? Is this a tool I'm overlooking within Acrobat? Is this outside the scope of what is adjustable? All advice is welcome, and please feel free to ask any follow-up questions if I explained my problem unclearly.

If you are trying booklet printing, try to rotate the pages as needed before you print to the booklet. If you are print booklets without using professional imposition software, then Quite Imposing or Quite Imposing Plus should be considered. I believe they offer a demo version.

  • How do I change the default text for when I open up pages?

    How do I change the default text for when I open up pages?

    Colin,
    You may substitute any text you like for the "Placeholder Text", as it is called, in Pages. Click on the existing placeholder text and type something more to your liking. Do this in as many places as your particular template of interest demands. Then, Format > Advanced > Define as Placeholder Text. Lastly, File > Save as Template.
    Now that you have defined a Custom Template to your liking, you can go to Pages Preferences and under the General tab's first section, define the new custom template as your default for each new document.

  • How can I change a print-ready booklet PDF file to single pages?

    I have a PDF file that is already in booklet-view, so when viewing the document, page 1 of the PDF shows the last page of the booklet on the left hand side and the first page of the booklet on the right hand side. Is there a way to change the 2-up pages to 1-up pages? Or a free program that I can throw the file into that would display it online as a booklet, in sequential page order?

    Hey needadobehelp10,
    Using Adobe Acrobat/Reader, you can simply change your PDF view settings under "View > Page Display > Single Page View"
    Is this really you wish for?
    Please let me know.

  • Urgent:How to Speed Up the Response time for PDF Report of  500 pages

    hi all
    i am running the 9ias on Solaris and Generating some reports
    Which fetches around 50,000 records and Display them in pdf format.
    When i am ruuning the Query at Database level Response time is Very fast.
    But when i Run the Report in Web Browser same report takes 7-8 minutes.
    So it seems that the Conversion to pdf and Displaying it takes most of time.
    Does any one has idea What parameter's needs to be changed/Caching ??? /
    or any other ways or methods which can be used to Reduce the Response time.
    (its once a monthly Report and User need to Download all the 500 pages as
    a Single Document).
    Any help / suggestion please
    thanks
    jai

    You aren't by any chance calling a function in your repeating frame that in turn goes back and queries the database, are you? If so ... don't. We regularly do 500+ page PDF-file reports, and one thing we discovered early on was that repeatedly going back to the database while generating the report output (in our case, in calculations that were being done on each line of a report) slowed the output down by an order of magnitude. Instead, we now retrieve all the data needed for each report up front (via functions or views called in the initial SQL for the report), and just use Reports to format the output. MUUUUUUUCH faster -- 200 page reports that used to take 15 minutes to complete now complete in just seconds.
    One way you can visually see if this is part of your problem is to watch the report execute in the Report Queue Manager application. If it spends all its time on the "Opening" stage then breezes through each page, this is not your problem. If instead it seems to take a long time generating each page, I'd suspect that this may be at least part of your delay.

  • How do I change the default font for foot/end notes in Pages 09?

    The fonts for notes in Pages seems fixed to Helvetica, even when the font for the body has been changed. I've been able to save the font for the body by saving it as a tempate, but it doesn't seem to work for the notes. Any help?

    looked several times in the index.xml describing the docs.
    A new note descriptor starts with :
    <sf:p sf:style="kSFWPFootnoteTextStyleIdentifier">
    If we change something to the note attributes the app replace the default style by a custom one. For instance, it may be :
    <sf:p sf:style="SFWPParagraphStyle-68">
    My first attempt was to insert a font descriptor in the default style.
    Alas, for the app, such descriptor is pure garbage and it delete it.
    Second attempt was to try to find the descriptor of the font used by default.
    At last, I discovered that the app use in fact the font described by the resouirce named : FONT_Helvetica in the Blank template.
    I choose to use HoeflerText-Regular so I applied this scheme.
    (1) navigate to the file
    Macintosh HD:Applications:iWork '09:Pages.app:Contents:Resources:Templates:Blank.template:Contents:Resources:fr .lproj:Localizable.strings
    (2) to play safety, duplicate it
    (3) drag it on the Desktop bercause the System don't allow us to edit it.
    (4) When it's on the desktop, if you installed the developers tools double click the file's icon.
    If you didn't, drag & drop its icon on TextEdit's one.
    (5) Near the bottom, you will find the line :
    "FONT_Helvetica" = "Helvetica";
    edit it as :
    "FONT_Helvetica" = "HoeflerText-Regular";
    (6) Save the file on the Desktop,
    (7) Move it back in its original folder.
    I described the process for the French language (which use fr.lproj)
    For other languages, replace fr.lproj by the item of this liost matching your language :
    da.lproj
    de.lproj
    en.lproj
    es.lproj
    fi.lproj
    fr.lproj
    it.lproj
    ja.lproj
    ko.lproj
    nl.lproj
    no.lproj
    pl.lproj
    pt_PT.lproj
    pt.lproj
    ru.lproj
    sv.lproj
    zh_CN.lproj
    zh_TW.lproj
    Have fun.
    Oops, of course Pages is supposed to be closed when you do that.

  • How do I change the printer options on an ipad air?

    i am changing service provider. Currently they overlap. My ipad is happy to find the current old provider but cannot find the new provider even when i switch to that network. I cannot find any options for changing printer options. how can I change the printer option to access the new provider? i have 4 weeks to get the answer. Thanks

    If you mean that the iPad is tied to another user's iCloud account, you have to ask them to erase the device for you. You can't do it on your own. The device requires their Apple ID and password in order to turn off Find My iPad and to delete the iCloud account.
    IF you just want to sign into another Apple ID (not recommended either) go to Settings>iTunes and App store>Apple ID and sign out of that ID and sign into your ID,

  • How do I change the printer resolution?

    How do I change the printer resolution on my OSX 10.6.2 laptop?
    I have an ubuntu print server and it seems to only work at all using the gutenprint drivers. On my ubuntu client I had to change the print resolution from "auto" to 600x600 to make it work just fine.
    The best I can do is make the Mac print pages squished down to 1/4 size. I don't see the same resolution option on the Mac.
    Mac OSX 10.6.2
    Ubuntu Server 9.10
    Printer: Canon S900
    Cups driver: Canon S800 Gutenprint v5.2.3
    Cups version 1.4.2 on the mac
    Cups version 1.3.9 on Ubuntu Server
    Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.6.2)

    I can't speak for the printer directly, but most functions to change resolution are in the dropdown menu at the bottom of the print dialog. It has a gray bar running through it separating the basic functions from the advanced settings.
    If you don't see that, but do see a blue button with a black triangle pointing down, click on that. Then you'll be able to set the advanced settings.
    Once you set up the printer the way you like, save it as a preset. If you want that as a default, see this [MacOSXHint|http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20100125135830153].

  • How do you change the Print Products Store from USA to UK like you can do in IPhoto?

    How do you change the Print Products Store from USA to UK like you can do in IPhoto?

    Please keep in mind that Aperture is not an enhanced iPhoto, it is a different application with a different philosophy and a different intended audience. If you approach it with that in mind you will have a lot less frustration as you learn Aperture.
    Aperture adds a layer of complexity that is not needed by many.  iPhoto is a very powerful application and fits the needs of many amateur photographers.
    As for your original issue, as I said I am surprised that iPhoto allows you do switch countries like that and am not surprised that Aperture doesn't. If this is something you really need to do working in Aperture but using iPhoto to order the prints is a good work around and will not be all that difficult to do once you get the hang of it.
    As for your new question, the books in iPhoto and Aperture are different enough that the code that created the book in iPhoto wouldn't work in Aperture. What happens when you import an iPhoto library into Aperture is that the images in the book are combined into an album in Aperture with the same name as the iPhoto book. You will need to re-create the book in Aperture uaing the images in this album.
    Hope this helps, post back if you have anymore questions.
    regards

  • How can I change the default setting for downloading photos from email?

    How can I change the default setting for downloading photos from emails I receive?  It shows the default as Photoshop Elements 4.0 and is not supported by this system.  That was my last computer!!
    Thanks,

    That has nothing to do with styles nor Pages, it is a System/Printer Driver setting.
    You can experiment to see if the Printer Settings stick with your document, but in the past this has not worked.

  • How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the Bookmarks Library?

    How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the '''Bookmarks''' Library?
    Since the upgrade to version 9.0.1 of Firefox, the Bookmarks feature changes are confusing me. They seem to be confusing themselves as well. The list of bookmarks has changed. The font size is so small that my aging eyes cannot read it without fogging the screen with my breath. Some folders are out of alphabetical order (where I know they were previously good), and some are missing altogether (folders to which I frequently add references).
    As for missing or deranged files or folders, was there something that I should have done or now need to do to recover those after the upgrade (or before)?
    With regard to font size,
    1. there is no “Edit Bookmarks” or like option to edit the list in this version
    2. the “zoom” option in the “view” list of functions is greyed out when in “Show All Bookmarks” window
    3. expanding the browser window has no effect on font size
    4. “Preferences” settings for font size has no effect in that window either, including advanced settings
    5. “Help” offers none that I can find.
    Can any of you Help?!?

    Maybe this extension helps:

    how do i change the email address for my icloud account on my 4s. when i sign in on line it is my new email address so i thought it would change automatically but obviously not!

    Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then setup iCloud with your new ID.
    You can't change the Apple ID for your iCloud account, you have to delete it.

  • How do I change the email account for icloud on my iphone only

    How do I change the email account for icloud on my iphone6 only.  I don't want to change my ipad or my husband's iphone6.  Currently all 3 devices have the same gmail account associated with them.  I have created a new & separate apple id and I want that on my phone but I can't figure out how to delete his email from my phone.

    To change iCloud accounts you have to go to Settings>iCloud, sign out, then sign back in with your other ID to create your new account.  If you want to migrate a copy of the iCloud data to the new account, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save Image.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out, choose Keep on My iPhone and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone when prompted.  Then sign back in with your new Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload the data to your new account.  Once you are on a separate account you can go to iCloud.com and delete your husband's data from your account (and he can do the same with yours).
    Just be aware that the current @icloud.com email address cannot be moved to the new account, nor can the current my photo stream album (which is why you need to save any my photo stream photos you want to keep to your iPhone before signing out of the existing account).

    How do you change the Apple ID for my iPhone 4. I am able to access my iTunes account using my new ID and password on my computer; however, my iphone has a different Apple ID and I do not have cannot access iTunes on this phone. 

    Also, if you have iCloud, you will probably also want to change the iCloud account on the phone to be yours:
    Settings>iCloud - if Account is not yours, go to the bottom and Delete Account. Then sign back on with your iCloud account info.
