How to change page size to generate PDF ?

Hi,
I just finished a document : 4 pages on A4 format with texts and images.
I now have to generate a pdf file to send to the printer.... but the staff decided to change the format to a 80% of the initial size.  I have to generate the pdf to the right size and I don't really know how to do it.
On the second hand, I have a question about the jpg images imported in my document.  The printing company asked me to be sure to have CMJN pics.  As far as i know, jpg is RVB.  Does the pdf export make the change ?
thanks in advance.

isachrislisa,
In Preview you may Print to a reduced scale, and the medium you print to can be another PDF.
The color space question is an odd one, it seems to me, since I would think your printer should be the one to make such corrections. Without advanced graphics editing software, if would be difficult for you to transform your JPEGs from RGB to CMYK. A more reasonable request might be to keep all the photos and graphics in RGB so the printer has only color space to deal with converting. I'm sure that given some time, the commercial printing experts will jump in here with some better advice.

  • XI Pro: How to change page size?

    I have a letter-sized document where each page has extremely large margins and text in a tiny font size. Can I use the 'Remove White Margins' function (Crop pages > Set Page Boxes) to remove the large margins and then resize what remains back to 8.5" x11" using the 'Change Page Size' function?
    When I try this, I can do the first step and I'm left with pages about 5.5"x8". But the Change Page Size function does not allow me to resize the page.
    It this possible?

    Hi J Kart,
    Please refer the doc: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-to-resize-pages-in-a-pdf-file

  • How to change page order in a PDF file?

    Hi, how can I change the page order in my PDF file? I had read that it is possible but my editing options are showed gray and also my security settings cannot be edited.
    Do I need a special software? I have Acrobat Reader, and my document was exported from Illustrator as a PDF.

    You should ask in the Reader forum. But my guess is that Reader there is nothing you can do. Acrobat allows you to move pages around, but not Reader.

  • Book Module - how to change page size?

    I'd like to design book pages for my existing hard covers - A4 landscape and portrait. Also for specific 12x12 cover which takes 11.69" x 12" paper.
    Have watched various YouTubes, search within support - but haven't found a reference to add preferred sizes. Yet.
    Can anyone help on this one please?

    Yep, that's how I am doing it. I just wanted to make sure that I was doing it correctly. I need to keep debugging then and figure out what the real problem is. I am new to all of this (obviously) and I just needed to make sure I had the idea correct. I didn't mean to use document and page interchangeably, I understand that you can't have different size pages in the same document.
    Thank you for your help.
    [FYI]I created a class that creates a document with most of the document settings that I use (e.g. a standard number of pages, non-facing pages, units in inches, etc.) but I don't specify a page size, that's something that varies between documents, so I figured I could just apply that after I have created the page. The problem is, when I try to create multiple documents it doesn't work. The script will create the first document using the default page size settings and I can't get it to change the page size, but then the next document will be created using the page size I tried to apply from the previous document that the script created. I am sure this is totally a coding error somewhere else. I will try to track it down. Just when I think I have this stuff figured out . . .

  • HOW TO: Change page size after page is created?

    Is there a way to change the size of a page after the page has been created? In the documentation, the only way I have seen to set the page size is in a "with" statement right after creating the document. I have need to change the size of the document after a document has already been created. Any ideas?

  • How-To Changing Page Size in iAuthor

    Hi,
    is there a possibility to change the page size of an iAuthor iBook? I would like to create one which has the same dimension in portrait and landscape mode because the original paper book ist published in this way (of course I know, that I will get empty space when turning the iPad in portrait mode).
    Thanks, Tom

    Yes, Since you can't change the actual size of the ipad, technically you can't have a square page on the ipad.
    This is the best you can do,
    When i look at the Yellow Submarine book on my ipad this is how it looks. (with space on top and bottom)
    (screen capture below.)
    So that is what I was suggesting.
    If you want the square book spread to fill the full height you will have part of one of the pages cropped off.
    (748 x 2 = 1496)
    472 pixels will be cropped off.
    this is also how the YS book works, (ugly in my opinion) this is not possible in IBA.

  • How to change page size from A5 to A4 in CS3

    How do I change the pagesize of my booklet from A5 to A4 - basically I just want to blow the whole thing up a notch...
    I've tried to activate automatic layout adjust and then changing document settings but the result is scattered objects that are still the same size as on A5 - too small and strangely placed...
    What do I do?

    A fast trick is to export the document to PDF and then place this into a new A4 document, scaled up to fit the page.[*]
    InDesign can resize most stuff, but you will still get tiny differences in the text because of spacing, uneven rounding, etc. Layout Adjustment is meant as a shortcut to change margins in an existing document; but it's by no means perfect. It does not
    i scale
    text or images; it changes the margins and placement of objects only.
    [*] With CS3, you can try placing the original CS3 document into a new one (as images). That would make corrections a bit easier.

  • How to change page size by default

    Hi, I'm sorry if this has been aswered before - I looked for a solution but couldn't find one.
    The problem is I use Pages in French on a localized French Canadian G5. By default, new documents in Pages are set to A4 format, a eurpoean standard. I want it to be set at US Letter, a North America standard. The Printer and Fax System Prefs are set to US Letter and usually other apps behave accordingly, but Pages seems to be reluctant to do so. Any idea ?
    Thanks,

    Hello Christian,
    have a look inside of the Pages app folder. Do that with the controll key pressed and a mouse-click on the Pages app icon. Choose the item "Show Package Contents" and a new Finder window will open. Now navigate through "Contents > Resources > English.lproj > Templates". There are two folders: "ISO" is holding the DIN templates and "Traditional" is holding the size you need. You can do four things:
    1) Rename the two folders, so "Traditional" is named "ISO" an vice versa.
    2) Move the "ISO" folder to a place you can remember if you need a DIN Template one day.
    3) Delete the "ISO" folder if you only need the "Traditional" templates.
    4) If you only need the "Empty" template, than create a link of the "Traditional > Blank > Blank.template" on your Finder, so you have it always at hand with a "single double-click".

  • How do you can change the page size of a pdf in MAC?  I have multiple pdf documents of different sizes that I want to combine.

    Help.  How do I change the page size of a pdf in MAC?  I have multiple pdf documents in varying sizes I would like to combine and print.

    There's no real need to do that. A PDF can have pages of different sizes.

  • How can I change the page size of a pdf so i can view it on my iphone more clearly?

    How can I change the page size of a pdf so i can view it on my iphone more clearly?

    I think there may be more to this question than you say.
    If your PDF page is say, 8 x 12 inches, and you found a way to scale it to 25%, changing it to 2 x 3 inch, shrinking everything on the page to quarter size - wouldn't it look exactly the same on the iPhone? It's just going to be the same as zooming.
    Or were you hoping for something more like in Word, where changing the page size keeps everything the same size and spreads it over more pages? That isn't something you can do.

  • How can I change the size of a pdf source file, or, convert it to Word?

    How can I change the size of a pdf source file, or, convert it to Word?

    A lot depends on the form of the PDF. Is it graphics, a scan of a text file, pure text, or other? What version of Acrobat are you working with.
    You can do a save as to get a WORD file, but do not expect great results. The ability to get a decent WORD file depends on what the form of PDF you are working from. If it was created from WORD with tags and all, you might get good results. If not, you might get a lot of messed up results.
    Explain what you are starting with and your ultimate goal. Also check the audit of the file (should be under PDF Optimize) to see where the file information is concentrated (text, fonts, graphics, other).

  • How determine page size by opening PDF file in binary mode

    Hi,
    I have to print PDF file but I would like to know the page size of the PDF file.

    And if you multiply the values by (1/72):
    (792 - 0) / 72 = 11
    (612 - 0) / 72 = 8.5
    You may also have to consider rotated pages and not all pages within a PDF will match the size of the first page.
    Using Acrobat JavaScript:
    var nPage = 0;
    var cBox = "Crop";
    var aRect = this.getPageBox(cBox, nPage);
    var width = aRect[2] - aRect[0];
    var height = aRect[1] - aRect[3];
    console.println("Page " + (nPage + 1) + " has a width of " + (width / 72) + " inches and a height of "
    + (height / 72) + " inches");
    Produces the following output on the Acrobat JS debugging console:
    Page 1 has a width of 8.25 inches and a height of 11 inches

  • Indesign export to pdf. How to reduce page size to 80%?

    When i export from indesign to pdf i have no option to reduce the page size. The pdf i get is then far too big. The thing is that i can not make the indesign document itself smaller since i need it to export it to jpeg too. Is there a way that i oversee? Thanx, Hans

    If you're lucky, you can set a reduction factor in your Print setup dialog -- then you could use Print To File instead, and use the Distiller.
    That would not include any bookmarks or hyperlinks, though.
    Another option could be to create a new document of 80% size, then place your old doc as images into this. A placed ID page can be reduced in size just like a placed PDF.
