How to ask about EXPORT to PDF images per/page

When I export to pdf I get:
1st page has one image on it
2nd pages on have two images each
I can't figure out how to make the export ONE image per PDF page.
Sorry it this question is cryptic...I don't know the correct terms to use.
Thanks, --bill

I found a promising javascript for Acrobat to split spreads to single pages... there were couple of flaws (cover single page was splitted too, some interactive elements were not deleted when page was cropped and element was left outside of crop area...) I sent a comment to an author of that script about those problems...
But I think this script could be usefull even with those problems, at least if you have a long document to process. You can always put an extra page to first and last spread and keep it while exporting, and those non-deleted elements may be deleted manually...
Address and instructions how to add it to Acrobat´s Document menu can be found at:

Peter,
does Pages v4 (09) work on a G4 chip? I think I've updated this old Mac iBook as far as it will go. In other words will I need to buy a newer laptop to get the Pages 09 to work and ouput to an eBook? Thanks. Richard

Color changes when exporting to PDF from Apple Pages or Word

When I export to PDF from Apple Pages or Microsoft Word, there is a noticable color shift.
The RGB color values that are 23, 76, 140 in Pages for a medium shade of blue like this but appear as 50, 61, 134 with a decidedly purple cast like this in the PDF.
Has anybody else run into this problem? Any tips for troubleshooting?

Thanks for the reply. It was created using Apple Pages. I tried exporting to PDF in two different ways, both with the same result.
1. Within Apple Pages, one can click File > Export > PDF
2. The other option is to click Print > PDF > Save as PDF
I also tried this second method with Microsoft Word, and again the color was altered. Any suggestions that you can provide to resolve this issue will be very helpful.

Create a PDF with multiple images per page

So this seems really simple, but i cannot figure it out... i am creating a PDF from 30 JPGs and rather than having an image on each page in the PDF I would like to set it up so that there are 6 images per page... any thoughts .. thanks in advance
cheers

Once you have the PDF with a single image per page, print it out to a new PDF with 6 pages per page.
Either that, or use an authoring application like Word or InDesign.

How do I output a large pdf into single pages for press?

It is certainly a good point that, if they need the files separately, and don't even know how to use Acrobat to split it themselves, it might lead one to question their expertise in the PDF field.

How can I create a one image per page caption sheet that includes the description in Bridge?

I am trying to find a way to create a one-image-per-page caption sheet for my workflow. I currently place each image into Word and copy the description onto the document, then repeat for each image. I am hoping that there is a way to automate this process using Bridge. I know that it can be done using Lightroom, however, that is not currently an option for me. Is this something that can be done or am I bound, like Sisyphus to Microsoft Word? I have a very limited grasp of scripting, but I feel like this is possible.
Thanks for any help.

To create a NetBoot image, you could just put the cluster node in target mode and attach it to your PowerBook. Then use SIU to create the NetBoot image.
If you're trying to create a backup image of the disk, use hdiutil, or put in in target mode and create the image with Disk Utility.

Printing same photo multiple images per page

Using the new version how do you print the same picture 4x on one page?

Do the following:
1 - duplicate the photo so you have the number of photos that you want on a single page.
2 - select all of the duplicates and start the Print process.
3 - select the paper size.
4 - select the Custom layout
5 - select the aspect ratio ratio you want to have or a custom aspect ratio.
6 - adjust the width and height until you get the number of images per page that you want.

Is it possible to datamerge more than one image per page?

I am building a product catalogue using datamerge. Is it possible to data merge more than one image per page? (ie I have a logo, product image and dimensioned drawing to go with each product page)
What would the coding be for the Data Field Name?
Would it be
@Logo
@Product Image
@Dimension Drawing
Add image fields in the data source file
By adding image fields to the data source file, you can allow a different image to appear on each merged record. For example, when you merge documents that include information from various companies, you may want to include an image of each company’s logo as part of the merge.
Open the data source file.
At the beginning of the data field name, type an “at” symbol (@) to insert text or paths that refer to image files.The @ symbol is required only in the first line; subsequent lines should include the image paths. Paths, which are case-sensitive, must follow the naming conventions of the operating system in which they’re stored.
If you get an error message when you type the @ symbol at the beginning of the field, type an apostrophe (') before the @ symbol (such as '@Photos) to validate the function. Some applications, such as Microsoft Excel, reserve the @ symbol for functions.

You can use InDesign to view the path of an image on your operating system. Insert an image in an InDesign document, and then use the Links panel to view the image’s location. With the image selected, choose Copy Info > Copy Full Path from the Links panel menu. You may need to edit the path after you paste it in your data source. This technique is especially useful for images on a server.

Yes, pretty much exactly as you describe. You would then just add those fields to the boxes in your page. I tend to add an apostrophe before the @ symbol in Excel so it doesn't think it's a function - as per text you quoted above.

How can I auto export a PDF File using the "Smallest File Size" preset and set the Exported File Name based on information from an Imported PDF?

Greetings all,
I am trying to create a script to automate a PDF export process for my company for inDesign. I’m fairly new to inDesign itself and have no previous experience with javascript, although I did take C++ in high school and have found it helpful in putting this code together.
We have an inDesign template file and then use the Multi-page PDF importer script to import PDF files. We then have to export two version of each file that we import, then delete the imported file and all of the pages to reset the template. This has to be done for nearly 1000 pdf files each month and is quite tedious. I’m working on automating the process as much as possible. I’ve managed to piece together code that will cleanup the file much quicker and am now trying to automate the PDF exports themselves.
The files are sent to us as “TRUGLY#####_Client” and need to be exported as “POP#####_Client_Date-Range_North/South.pdf”
For example, TRUGLY12345_Client needs to be exported as POP12345_Client_Mar01-Mar31_North and POP12345_Client_Mar01-Mar31_South.
There are two templates built into the template file for the north and south file that are toggled easily via layer visibility switches. I need to get a code that can ideally read the #s from the imported Trugly file as well as the Client and input those into variables to use when exporting. The date range is found in the same place in the top right of each pdf file. I am not sure if this can be read somehow or if it will have to be input manually. I can put North or South into the file name based on which template layer is visible.
I am not sure how to go about doing this. I did find the following code for exporting to PDF with preset but it requires me to select a preset and then type the full file name. How can I set it to automatically use the “Smallest File Size” preset without prompting me to choose and then automatically input some or preferably all of the file name automatically? (If the entire filename is possible then I don’t even want a prompt to appear so it will be fully automated!)
PDF Export Code (Originally from here: Simple PDF Export with Preset selection | IndiSnip [InDesign® Snippets]):
var myPresets = app.pdfExportPresets.everyItem().name;
myPresets.unshift("- Select Preset -");
var myWin = new Window('dialog', 'PDF Export Presets');
myWin.orientation = 'row';
with(myWin){
    myWin.sText = add('statictext', undefined, 'Select PDF Export preset:');
    myWin.myPDFExport = add('dropdownlist',undefined,undefined,{items:myPresets});
    myWin.myPDFExport.selection = 0;
    myWin.btnOK = add('button', undefined, 'OK');
myWin.center();
var myWindow = myWin.show();
if(myWindow == true && myWin.myPDFExport.selection.index != 0){
    var myPreset = app.pdfExportPresets.item(String(myWin.myPDFExport.selection));
    myFile = File(File.saveDialog("Save file with preset: " + myPreset.name,"PDF files: *.pdf"));
    if(myFile != null){
        app.activeDocument.exportFile(ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, myFile, false, myPreset);
    }else{
        alert("No File selected");
}else{
    alert("No PDF Preset selected");
So far my code does the following:
1) Runs the Multi-Page PDF Import Script
2) Runs PDF Export Script Above
3) Toggles the Template
4) Runs #2 Again
5) Deletes the imported PDF and all pages and toggles template again.
It’s close and much better than the original process which was almost 100% manual but I’d like to remove the Preset prompt from the PDF script and have it automatically select the “Smallest File Size” preset. and then if there’s a way to have it auto-fill in the file name so no user input is required at all other than selecting each file to import. (If there’s a way to setup a batch action for the multi-import script that would be even better!)
Thanks in advance and if there’s anything else I can provide that would help please let me know! Even a nudge in the right direction will be a big help!

If you hold down the option key, it will typically show the location. Or you can often hit option-return on the file and it will reveal the file in the Finder, instead of opening it.
Final option is to open it, and just option-click the filename in the toolbar of Preview and it should show you the location.
It's probably an attachment to an email you've received. If you have Mail set to cache emails and their attachments it'll be stashed in a subdirectory of ~/Library/Mail. Which is fine.

How to read ZIP files(having PDFs,Image) using MQ Series link for R/3

Hi,
1)Is it possible to transfer a zip file (having an image or pdf) using IDocs in SAP 4.6C using MQ Series link for R/?
Scenario: "MQ Series link for R/3" converts Business-Reports from a third-party software,into SAP IDocs.Each Business-Report contains one XML file and one ZIP file.
2)Being on ABAP side,do I have to worry about how the zip file would be converted into IDocs?
Detailed descrption:
This scenario requires integration of a non-SAP software which talks in XML with SAP R/3(4.6C).The customer has decided to go with 'MQ Series link for R/3' (which integrates any non-SAP application running on IBM MQ Series to R/3,by converting data(in any format) into IDocs).He is not ready to go for XI.
The Problem area is a functionality which requires the non-SAP software to send XML file along with an attached Zip file.So,XML document,basically,has a 'zippedFile' XML element having actual file in XML keyword 'file'.
This XML document ideally, should be converted by the subsystem(MQSeries link for R/3) into IDocs i.e. into a stream which could be stored in a table on R/3 side and later, sent back to the non-SAP software through MQ Series link to be converted into zip-file again with corresponding pdfs,images.I want someone who has worked in a similar scenario to confirm this.

Hi,
I have a feeling I have posted this question in the wrong forum or maybe I will let you decide this.Any help would be appreciated (even the right forum name).

How to import PDF image into Pages manuscript that is larger than the text bed margins

How do I import a PDF image into a Pages book manuscript, whose dimensions are larger than the global text bed margins? Any imported PDF image is automatically shrunk to fit within the text bed. I know I can set up a single page with wider margins and a text bed within it, but I want the image to import to a page already within the manuscript sequence, where the text bed margins are set and constant.

By default it should be dragging in as a floating image and not part of the text.
What version of Pages are you using?
In Pages 5 this is:
Format > Arrange > Object Placement > Stay on Page > Size > Original size

URGENT indesign fails to export interactive pdf of 700 pages

Hi everyone!
This is my first time asking directly for help in the adobe forum, but god nows how many times i found good advice here before, searching for answers to rather simple AND complex questions.
My problem is:
I have a book made out of 17 files, summing a total of 706 pages.
This entire thing is supposed to be interactive - kind of a "consult on the go users manual" for in-house use at a company.
when i export the book in its total to an interactive .pdf (smallest version, 72 dpi) at about 405 pages it just stops, says that "an error ocurred exporting the .pdf file" and shuts down exporting (not the program though). (It also does not specify the error nor give an error report. it just stops and deletes the half-created pdf-file)
BUT if i export every file on its own as an individual interactive .pdf it works just fine and no problems appear.
my question now is: maybe indesign just not capable of exporting such a large interactive file? (with "only appearance" checked, it works just fine)
the larges file we did in the studio was about 350 pages long - and if i export the book in "2 sessions" (two documents of 350 pages) it takes quite a long time (about half an hour after getting past the last page) but in the end it works.
i thought about combining the various individual (working) pdf documents - but the links/buttons/etc. get all messed up.
has this happened to anybody?
does anybody know how to solve that problem - and if not, if there even is a way? at my understanding right now, it is just not possibe to export an interactive pdf of more than 400 pages from indesign.
supposedly i have to turn that document in tomorrow midday (european time) so it can be saved onto usb-pendrives for distribution... but right now i'm VERY lost.
i'd appreciate some advice, and even if it is a straight "it's not possible, too large of a document" would be nice just to get things in my head a little clearer and confront the client with what's REALLY posssible and what is simply not doeable.
THANK YOU SO MUCH IN ADVANCE!
Stephanie
p.s.: despite all the problems (mainly caused by outrageous client/marketing demands) nobody will ever get me hating on inDesign - just gotta looooove that program!

i ended up changing the system after talking to an adobe engineer as she told me that given the high page number and the awfully heigh number of buttons // links per page (from 10 up to 35) it seemed to be a problem for the program to process all that info. not because of the computers "strengths" but simply because of the complexity of the document.
now i ended up conserving only a few links and resolved the rest with "markers" (is it called like that in english? -> the ones that appear in the sidebar of the .pdf in acrobat and let you jump directly to the page to which they referr)
Thank you for all your support and quick answers (i didn't think it would be that inmediate!).
Definitely going to pay more attention to this forum and give a look around to see if i can help somebody too.
See you!
Steph
p.s.: i thought of that option, but at about 6-12 cross-document buttons per page in a document of 700... i didn't want to get into that mess. if the document weren't as complex it would have been the solution!
