How do I make a print button that prints "current page" as default

I am working in Adobe Acrobat Professional 7.0 and have created "print
buttons" in the pdf document I am working in. The print dialog box has "print all" automatically selected as the current default. How can
I create buttons that bring the user to the print dialog box automatically selected at "print current page?" I want the user to hit
the print button and have it automatically print the single page that they are viewing only, so that no one will accidentally print the entire book.

How do i make a clickable "button" that works in the PDF?

I have a newsletter and want to make a button on a page that when clicked, will open the browser and go to that site. I see how to convert objects to a button and enter the URL in its properties but when I convert to a PDF, the entire object is missing. When converting to PDF, I also make sure that hyperlinks and interactive elements are both checked in the General section. I dont know what else I need to do!

It is a colored square that was also grouped with a text box. I tried also ungrouping it and just putting the button effect on one or the other and had the same problem. When i look at the PDF, it has nothing there, whatever object i have the button effect applied to is totally deleted. I even tried clicking on the area where it was thinking maybe something was invisible and that didnt do anything either. There are no left over or hidden boxes there that could be covering things either. Im good about working cleanly and organized.
Ill try doing this with a new document tomorrow and see what happens

How do you make a custom button that is Invisible When not selected

Im just recently switching over to using a mac for authoring. I really like all the features in DVD Studio more than what i was using on a PC for the past 6 years. Which was ulead DVD Workshop 2.
The only problem im having (For Now) is that i cant make my custom buttons invisible. I made this little black shape thing in photoshop and i want to use it in DVDSP for selecting different tracks.
I thought all i had to do was just save the black shape with a transparent background in photoshop as a .psd and import it. But that didnt work.
When i change episodes it just stays black the whole time. I want something that will be invisible when it is not selected.
please help
I can send someone my little shape if they can make it a usable button that i can make invisible in dvdsp. I really need to see the layers done with a shape as a button to see how they were able to make it invisible.
i tried a few tutorials but instead of being invisible all i got was a shape that was stuck white the whole time. this is even when i put the opacity to 0 on normal.
I want to make this into a button

Ok, what you want to do is also in the same tutorial. See the section on "Advanced Highlights" (again, avoid the sections on layered menus), You can create an overlay that does have two colors. The bad news is that there will be absolutely no anti-aliasing at all. This means your graphic will be extremely pixelated. This is just the way the DVD specs are set up, so there is no way around it.
Given that I would highly recommend redesigning your overlay. Take a look at variety of DVDs from Hollywood. See what they are doing in their menus. You can do anything they are doing, but you will notice that the overlay is very simple because of the limited anti-aliasing of DVDs. In all the years that I've been watching DVDs I've only see one DVD use two colors in the overlay, and that was the Jim Carey "The Grinch who Stole Christmas."

How do you make it print first page first and not the last page first?

I have a HP Officejet Pro 8600. How do I make the first page print first and not the last page printing first?

Hi,
From the application used to print open the print dialog and click Oroperties or Preferences to access the Printing Preferences screen.
From the Layout tab set Page Order as Back to Front, then the first page will be printed first.

How do I Make a Flash Button that points an iWeb page by default?

In Flash, I want to make a menu.
I have created the buttons, now I want to make them point to the various pages in my iWeb site by default. What should the URL be for the Buttons?
I used "../../mysite/index.html" for the home button, and that seems to work, after I publish, but the same type of URL doesn't work with the About Me, Photo, Blog etc. pages.
Any help would be appreciated.

How to make an 'order' button that works?

Probably I have to use php, but I do not know how to make the correct script.
Regards, Gerald

If you just need it to pop text into a textfield, you can use javascript, something like this might do the trick for you...
<textarea id="TheText"></textarea>
<select id="DropDown">
    <option value="">None</option>
    <option value="text-one">Choice One</option>
    <option value="text-two">Choice Two</option>
    <option value="text-three">Choice Three</option>
    <option value="text-four">Choice Four</option>
</select>
<script type="text/javascript">
    var thetextbox = document.getElementById('TheText');
    var mydropdown = document.getElementById('DropDown');
    mydropdown.onchange = function(){
    thetextbox.value = this.value;
</script>
The script should come after the textbox and dropdown in your HTML.

HT3500 how do i make my printer connect to a new SSID

I have a new wireless address, and my printer's setting is the old wireless SSID. so my printer is not connected.... how do i make the printer to connect my new SSID??

You have a printer question, not an AirPort question. No adjustments need to be made on the AirPort if wireless is working for other devices.
Check the documentation that came with your printer to see how to reset the device back to the original default settings it was using when it was new.
Then, configure the printer to connect to the "new" network....just like you did when you configured it to connect to the "old" network.
If you need more info, you need to contact support at the printer manufacturer.

How can I make the playback buttons of YouTube and other plug-ins bigger since they are so tiny?

How can I make the playback buttons of YouTube and other plug-ins bigger since they are so tiny in Firefox? I tried some suggestions that dealt with entering "about:config" in a fresh browser, but to no avail. I also downloaded an add-on called "Theme Font & Size Changer", but that didn't work either. So, I am reaching out here as that was a suggestion that another user here offered.

Ah, yes- that is an ultra high DPI (dots per inch) display. This is a known issue in Flash Player, which Adobe is working on fixing.
In the mean time, you can get some videos to have normal-sized controls by switching Youtube to the HTML5 video player:
In Firefox, go to https://www.youtube.com/html5 and click the "Request the HTML5 player" button.

How can I make a "print screen" on my iMac?

How can I make a Print Screen of my iMac? Also catching only a portion of the video?

Hello redlion53,
It sounds like you would like to take screenshots of either the entire screen or a portion of the screen. This article outlines how to perform this function:
OS X: Taking pictures of your screen
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5775
Take a picture of your entire screen
Press Command (⌘)-Shift-3. The screen shot is added to your desktop.
Take a picture of some of your screen
Press Command (⌘)-Shift-4, and then drag the crosshair pointer to select the area. Hold Shift, Option, or the Space bar while you drag to resize the selection area. To cancel, press Escape (esc) before you release the mouse button.
Take a picture of a specific window
Press Command (⌘)-Shift-4, press the Space bar, move the camera pointer over the window to highlight it, and then click.
This works with open Finder windows and most application windows.
To cancel, press Escape (esc) before you click.
Take a picture of a menu
Click the menu to reveal its contents, then press Command (⌘)-Shift-4 and drag the crosshair pointer over the area.
To take a picture of the menu without the title, hover over the menu, press Command (⌘)-Shift-4 and the Space bar.
To cancel, press Escape (esc) before you click.
Additional Information
In Mac OS X v10.6 and later, the screenshots are saved as PNG files on the desktop. They are automatically named "Screen shot (date and time).png".
You can also take pictures of the screen using the Grab app.
Some apps, such as DVD Player, may not let you take pictures of their windows.
To capture a partial screen or a window selection to the Clipboard instead of a desktop file, use Command-Shift-Control-4.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

How can I make my printer airprint compatible so I can print from my iPad air?

How can I make my printer airprint compatible so I can print from my iPad air?

If you have a Mac, you can usually install an application like Printopia to allow the iPad to print to your printer.
There is a free trial, so you will know if Printopia works for you before you buy. Details here:
Printopia - Ecamm Network
There are other apps that do the same things, but I have not tried them, so cannot comment on them.

How can I make my print job go fast again?

How can I make my print job go fast again? Since february when there was a update for snow leopard, all of my print jobs almost take forever to finish.. a pdf file 10MB size will take about 1 hour to send to the printer that is a Nashuatech mp c3500.
And yes, if the pdf for example is 20MB size, it will take about 2 hours to get it done..
My equipment is:
Macbook pro OS X 10.6.8
Nashuatech NRG MPC3500

Sometimes, Software Update doesn't apply updates entirely correctly, and odd issues can happen.
You might download and install the latest combo update for 10.6.8, which is at http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 . Before installing, bring up Disk Utlity (on your hard drive in applications/utilties) and repair permissions. Install the update, then repair permissions again when done.

How can I make an ant file that launches an AS project app in a debug flash player that traces to the flex console?

How can I make an ant file that launches an AS project app in a debug flash player that traces to the flex console?
Basically I like the control over the compiling process that I get by using Ant - but I really want traces to come up immediately without having to switch contexts.
I have an ant file that successfully launches a swf in the flashplayer - but I don't know how to make the flex console start displaying the trace output. I assume that I will have to point it to the appropriate trace output file - but I am not sure how to have ant even address the console. Is this possible?
Here is the the target node from my ANT file:
    <target name="launch">
        <exec executable="${FLASHPLAYER_EXE}" errorproperty="trace.output">
            <arg line="'${DEPLOY_DIR}\test.swf'" />
        </exec>
    </target>
Thanks for any thoughts, or alternatives!

For the record, I ended up using Logwatcher - it worked perfectly.
