How To Create Printer Spreads PDF for Saddle Stitch Booklet?

I need to output a PDF in printer spread format for a saddle stitch booklet from InDesign.
After installing CS5 Master Suite on my upgraded Mac OS X 10.6.2 MacBook I can't figure out how to do that though.
Has anyone figured this out?
Thanks,
DAN

That's why I qualified it... "practically identical". Replace "Adobe PDF" with "Postscript File" and I found that it got me 90% of the way there so Eugene's point about it helping someone else with a similar need rang true in my case. I was already aware of the lack of the PDF Printer in SL, so that was moot detail for me. But that's the beauty of a an open forum IMO: even if you didn't find it helpful I don't think he should be discouraged or chastened for his effort because it helped me and could undoubtedly help others too.
Also, as an aside specific to the Adobe forums, even though I am not remotely as prolific a poster as some folks, I have frequently found resolutions to Mac questions in Windows threads and vice versa. Personally, I also don't find it terribly clear which flavor of a given software's forum I happen to be in when coming in cold from a Google search or the like... eg. Sure, one should read the OP thoroughly, but if you were just scanning and trying to help, simply looking at the top of this very thread there is quite literally no indication of whether this is a Mac or Windows InDesign question:
"I've seen this question asked many times for both Windows and Macs"... me too, and I think every bit of info to troubleshoot it and crowdsource solutions can only help. Even if we don't all have the luxury of dealing with "modern printers."

  • Can't print multiple copies of saddle stitched booklet

    We purchased a Canon Image Runner Advanced C5235 copier/printer last March, with a booklet maker. When printing from InDesign CS6, I can print one booklet, folded and stapled. However, as soon as I select more than one copy, it won't fold and staple the pages. I'm using a Mac with OS-X 10.9.5. I've had lengthy discussions with Canon tech support and had a technician in to look at it, and we've determined that the issue is exclusive to InDesign. I can print multiple booklets from Word and Adobe Pro, and by copying letter-sized pages on the Canon rather than printing from the computer. Has anyone else experienced this? Why would I be able to print one booklet, but not two or more? I know the work around could be to export from INDD to PDF, but when I do that, it automatically shrinks the content and centres it on each page of the booklet, resulting in tiny font and a lot of wasted space on the perimeter of each page, which is not acceptable for my finished product.

    There is a Page Scaling setting in both Acrobat and Reader that many people overlook that could be why your pages are shrinking.
    If it has defaulted to Fit to Printable Area, try setting it to None. You may still only get one booklet at a time, but there are a few things about printing directly from InDesign that people find doesn't work as well as it should. Exporting to PDF is one of the things that usually gets you out of problems.

  • How can I export to PDF for Offset printing including color and grayscale photo's?

    After reading dozens of forum, I still don’t found the answer.
    I made a photobook with full-colur and B/W photos for Offset printing. I want the B/W to be in grayscale to avoid color possible color shades. It seems InDesign doesn’t support grayscale, the images become way to dark. Even with exporting without any colour conversion or destination and/or including original colour profiles, the grayscale pictures are being exported to dark to PDF.
    How can I export to PDF for Offset printing including color and grayscale photo’s?

    Yes, the Photoshop & ID CMYK working spaces are the same
    This can get difficult because the 3 programs handle soft proofing differently.
    The working spaces don't matter, it's the document profile(s) that manage the preview. So here is the same grayscale image placed in ID on top and PS on the bottom. I've set my Photoshop info to show the doc profile in the lower left corner. I can see my InDesign's Document CMYK profile in my Proof Setup (the Working CMYK is different and isn't being used). Both profiles are effectively the same Coated FOGRA39 (Black Ink FOGRA in the case of PS).
    But the previews don't match because I have Overprint turned off, so the InDesign preview is Gamma 2.2 or a "screen" media preview.
    If I turn on Overprint preview I get a match because I'm soft proofing for print:

  • How i can print a pdf???

    How i can print a pdf from Java or from a DOS script???
    Thanks for your help.

    from a Java application you can try to open up Adobe Reader. then just print from program. to do this look into the Runtime class. Something like:
    Runtime runtimeRef = Runtime.getRuntime();
    String pathToEXE = �C:\\MyFolderPath\adobeReader.exe�;
    Process adobeReaderProcess = runtimeRef.exec(pathToEXE);
    This will create a separate process which willl open up the Adobe Acrobat Reader program (assuming you have it and path is set up correctly).

  • How to create different log files for each of web applications deployed in OC4J

    Hi All,
    I am using OC4J(from Oracle) v1.0.2.2 and Windows2000. Now I want to know
    1. how to create different log files for each of my deployed web applications ?
    2. what are the advantages in running multiple instances of oc4j and in what case we should run
    multiple instances of OC4J ?
    3. how to run OC4J as Windows2000 Service rather than Windows2000 Application ?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Kumar.

    Hi Avi,
    First of all I have given a first reading to log4j and I think there will some more easy way of logging debugging messages than log4j (If you could provide me a detailed explanation of a servlet,jsp,java bean that uses log4j and how to use log4j then it will be very helpful for me). The other easy ways (if I am not using log4j) to my problem i.e creating different log files for each of web applications deployed in oc4j are
    I have created multiple instances of OC4J that are configured to run on different ports and so on each instance I have deployed a single web application . And I started the 2 oc4j instances by transferring thier error/log messages to a file. And the other way is ..
    I have download from jakarta site a package called servhelper . This servhelper is a thread that is started in a startup servlet and stopped in the destroy method of that startup servlet. So this thread will automatically capture all the system.out.println's and will print those to a file. I believe that this thread program is synchronized. So in this method I need not run multiple instances of OC4J instead each deployed web application on single instance of oc4j uses the same thread program (ofcourse a copy of thread program is put in each of the deployed web applications directories) to log messages on to different log files.
    Can you comment on my above 2 approached to logging debugging messages and a compartive explanation to LOG4J and how to use LOG4J using a simple servlet, simple jsp is appreciated ...
    Thanks and Regards,
    Ravi.

    Well, you can install Adobe Reader XI - not the version for Windows 8 tablets, but the one for regular PCs. This is just the same in Windows 8 as other systems, and can print. The tablet reader, which also runs on PCs, can't print.

  • How to create a new row for a VO based on values from another VO?

    Hi, experts.
    in jdev 11.1.2.3,
    How to create a new row for VO1 based on values from another VO2 in the same page?
    and in my use case it's preferable to do this from the UI rather than from business logic layer(EO).
    Also I have read Frank Nimphius' following blog,but in his example the source VO and the destination VO are the same.
    How-to declaratively create new table rows based on existing row content (20-NOV-2008)
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/13-create-with-params-169140.pdf
    I have tried:
    1.VO1(id,amount,remark1) and VO2(id,amount,remark2) are based on different EO,but render in same page,
    2.Drag and drop a Createwithparams button for VO1(id,amount,remark),
    3.add: Create insertinside Createwithparams->Nameddata(amount),
    4.set NDName:amount, NDValue:#{bindings.VO2.children.Amount}, NDtype:oracle.jbo.domain.Number.
    On running,when press button Createwithparams, cannot create a new row for VO1, and get error msg:
    <Utils> <buildFacesMessage> ADF: Adding the following JSF error message: For input string: "Amount"
    java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "Amount"
         at java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(NumberFormatException.java:48)
    Can anyone give some suggestions?

    Hi,CM,
    I'm really very appreciated for your quick reply! You know, today is Saturday, it's not a day for everyone at work.
    My principal requirement is as follows:
    1.select/check some rows from VO2, and for each selection create a new row with some attributes from VO2 as default values for VO1's corresponding attributes, and during this process the user may be cancel/uncheck or redo some of the selections.
    --so it's better to implement it in UI rather than in EO.
    2.it's better to implement this function with declarative way as in Frank Nimphius' blog.
    --little Jave/JS coding, the better. I only have experience in ORACLE FORMS, little experience in JAVA/JS.
    In order to get full information for the requirements of my use case, can take a check at:
    How to set default value for a VO query bind variable in a jspx page?
    (the end half of the thread: I have a more realworld requirement similar to the above requirement is:
    Manage bank transactions for clients. and give invoices to clients according to their transaction records. One invoice can contain one or many transactions records. and one transaction records can be split into many invoices.

  • How to Create Roaming Profile(s) For Windows Workgroups

    This Tutorial Shows how to create roaming profile(s) for Windows Workgroups.
    Here are the steps in order to do this:
    On the host PC:
    1. Goto 'Folder Options'>'View' and un-tick 'Use Simple File Sharing'.
    2. Goto Network Connections and right click on the 'Local Area Connection' (Ethernet recommended)
    3. Goto Properties>General, and tick 'File and Printer Sharing'.
    Click Apply + Ok.
    4. Goto Control Panel>User Accounts, add a new user.
    5. Logon to this user, and open the profile folder properties.
    5b. Share this folder.
    6. Make the Share permissions so that 'everyone' has: Full Control, Read, Change.
    Click Apply + Ok.
    7. Click on 'Caching' and disable Caching for this Share.
    Click Ok.
    8. Now goto the 'Security' tab and give 'Administrator' and 'SYSTEM' 'Full Control'.
    Click Apply + Ok.
    On the remote PC(s):
    1. Make the same User as on the Host.
    1b.Logon to the account and log back out again. Delete the profile folder from 'Documents and Settings'.
    3. Give 'SYSTEM': 'Read','Read and Execute','List Folder Contents' to the 'Administrators' Profile
    4. Type 'lusrmgr.msc' into run, goto: 'Users', double click on the new user and goto the 'Profile' tab.
    4b. In the 'Profile Path' box, type \\hostPCname\ProfileName.
    Click Apply + Ok
    *Note* Replace the \\path\ accordingly to what names are on your Host PC.
    5. Goto regedit>HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion. Double click

    Find which key is for the new user. (Example S-1-5-21-58435627-18431725-18026167-1003)
    6. Right click that key and goto: 'Permissions' and give 'SYSTEM' 'read'.
    *Note* Once you logon to the roaming profile from the remote PC for the first time you can undo this step.
    7. goto GPEdit>Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/System/User Profiles:
    Enable these settings:
    'Do not check for user ownership of roaming profile folders'
    'Delete cached copies of roaming profiles'
    'Log users off when roaming profile fails'
    "Add the Administrators security group to roaming profiles'
    'Prevent roaming profile changes from propagating to the server'
    7b. Make 'Timeout for dialog boxes' '1' (seconds)
    8. goto: Computer Configuration/Security Settings/Local Policies/Security Options:
    Make 'Number of previous logons to cache (if server is unavailable) '0'
    Now you're ready to login to the Profile on the remote PC.
    *Note* Sometimes, when windows loads it takes a minute for the profile folder to become shared again.
    Thanks for reading.
