How to export a typographic map in illustrator for print

I have created a typographic world map in illustrator. So nearly every major city, country, and body of water have been typed out using the type tool. Now, what is the best way to export and print this? I usually export out of illustrator with a set dimension (say 16 x 20in) @ 500 ppi jpeg for great quality. I did this with this map to test it out before selling. It came back from the printing company looking quite pixelated. Photos are perfect for that workflow, but I didn't think about needing to read those little villages in greenland. So although you can tell what it is (a map with cities & such), 90% of the map is unreadable. Are there any suggestions for exporting this thing differently so that everything would be ledgible just like maps are in textbooks? I tried making it 40in wide and set the ppi to 1500 (haha) with tiff output which would make it a monster but illustrator crashes and I'm not sure a printer can even print that. I need help. Thanks

the best way would be to not rasterize it at all. give the printer a pdf.

Can I export InDesign files to Adobe Illustrator for editing?

Can I export InDesign files to Adobe Illustrator for editing? I am not familiar with InDesign, but I am familiar with Illustrator. I have CS6. Hope someone can help. I have a large Orientation Booklet that needs updating and do not have the time to get tutored in InDesign.

No.
The closest you’ll get is a PDF and Illustrator is not a general purpose PDF editor.
Good luck.

I wasn't scolding you in any way, just suggesting. Sorry if it came out other than I intended.
The value in using the old thread is that if you have that question, perhaps others will too. So it is generally better to keep questions in the older thread, if they are directly on topic like this one was.

How to export 9i and import in 11g for EBS 11i

Hi
refered note 557738.1
Export/import notes on Applications 11i Database 11g
note 452783.1
Oracle Applications Release 11i with Oracle 11g Release 1 (11.1.0)
It required the use of datadump. And upgrade the source database to 10gR2 or 11g. We cannot upgrade the source DB as end user
will continue to use the source instance and the OS is too old to support new database versionThe existing 11.5.10.2
instance run on Solaris 8 platform. They will continue to use them for production support until the new R12 instance go live.
The new platform for database will be in HP-Itanium (DB) and Linux (Web/form). The first step I plan to do is to migrate the database to new platform
and then start the R12 upgrade in new platform.
This client also know that export/import is fine from 9i to 11g as they already done in other database application by themselves.
So I want to use export/import to transfer the database from Solaris platform to HP platform.
I do not found a single note for this case. I am planning to combine two note 230627.1 for data export & import.
And 557738.1 for new database creation in new HP platform. Is there any issue need to aware?

What you have to do is to export/import the 9i database (to 9i), then upgrade to 11g.

How do I change the default paper size for printing?

I am running Firefox 3.6.3. Recently, the default paper size for printing unexpectedly changed to a user-defined size of 3.00" x 4.57". It used to be letter size (8.5 x 11). The default paper size is 8.5 x 11 for everything else. I have tried changing the size in the preferences dialog box and then clicking "default", but after I close Firefox or if Firefox opens a new window, the default size switches back to 3.00" x 4.57". Does anyone know how to fix this?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== About 2 weeks ago

In "mine" dutch firefox 3.6.12 there is no option to change paper-size see
"about:config" Promise to be careful (and be!) Enter "print.postscript.paper_size" gives a empty screen
"paper_size" gives a few results
What about the numbers 4259872, 4784247 and what is the meaning of
paper_size, paper_size_type , paper_size_unit

How to make a pdf editable and save for print

Hi,
I just joined Adobe Cloud and it's been a while since I have used acrobat. I have made a brochure that I need a couple of things to be editable on. See below. I need the two areas highlighted in red to be editable for different locales/people. My questions are:
A) I assume Acrobat is the way to do this. I also have FormsCentral if that works better. Can someone tell me how to make these two fields editable?
B) What program do they edit with? Acrobat Reader?
C) How do they save and output it for print?
Thank you,
John

This is not about what Acrobat can or can't do - and you just said they won't have it anyway. It's about the limitations of PDF. A proper solution is to develop (at some expense) a server side PDF generator that takes the user's input and makes them a custom PDF. I don't know if you can just subscribe to a service to do this. If you aren't going to have them use Acrobat, form fields are your only option. Be sure they (and you) understand the limitations and that they must use Reader (not one of the many other PDF viewers). Be sure you understand about reader enabling: many versions of Reader CANNOT SAVE filled in files unless they are specially prepared.
So back to your original question: how do you make the fields editable: with the Forms function in Acrobat. You may have better luck in the Acrobat Forms forum.

R12.1.1 How to Terminate Payment batch with status "Submitted for Printing"

Hello,
We have a requirement to terminate the payment batch which was submitted for printing. How can we terminate the payment batch which is in "Submitted for Printing" status? The reasons could be due to the issues with the data in XML file. Ex. Special charecters etc which printing software (Adobe/evergreen) fail to recognize.
We are on 12.1.1.
We appreciate your thoughts and help.
Thanks,

Thanks for your response. We do not see the terminate option. When we click on Take action we have a choice to reprint or record print status. On the dashboard the terminate option is disabled. Do you think there is any configuration to enable the terminate option?
Thanks,

Export database information into pdf forms for printing

I'm hoping that this is doable and isn't extremely hard.
I have an access database that contains customer information. From this information I would like to export it into an existing pdf form (for each individual customer) and save it for printing at a later time.
Is this possible?
Thanks for any help!!

If you are using Acrobat 8 or above, you will want to use LiveCycle Designer.

How to export an image map as polygons?

Hoping someone can help with this as im having no luck with google.
I have a shape and in the attributes i have set the image map as polygon and put in a url
I export this in jpg format and it generates a jpg and html file. however, the HTML file is only showing rectangle.
<area shape="rect" coords="70,85,278,282" href="http://www.example.com">
I would have expected this choosing rectangle for the image map.
I am trying to export polygon coordinates.
Does any one know why this is not working and what i have missed?
Thanks in Advance

This was posted before and I tried it myself but when I exported the polygon shape image map it exported properly.
In the attributes you must choose polygon as the option it is not good enough just to have the shape a polygon.
Perhaps the problem might be connected to the document color space was the document the default CMYK or was it a we document from the start?
But what I always do is make a slice of the art or the artboard and save for the web as a jpeg and include the html.

Here are the screen shots of what I did

How to Export Quote from PDF to Excel OR Print Quote in Excel?

Hello,
I have a requirement where in I need to Print my quote in Excel output(Right now I am getting a PDF output)
Any information on the same would be a great help. I am workn on 11.5.10 instance.
Regards,
Ajit

The standard way of implementing this requirement is via xml publisher reports. You can build a concurrent program which takes some parameters and generate a pdf/excel report. You can call this concurrent program from ur OAF page.If you are not sure how to submit concurrent request via OAF refer to dev guide, this has been explained with sample code.
On the other note if u just want csv file, which can opened in a excel, you can print the quote on OAF page using advanced table bean and use export feature. This is explained in Advanced table section in dev guide.

How to export the report in HTML format for desktop application

Hi,
i have wrote the JRC desktop application to export the report and i am able to export it in PDF and other formats as mentioned in "ReportExportFormat" API.
i would like to know is there any API there which can export the report in HTML format.
i know it would be possible with web based application of JRC, but how can i do it in desktop application?

There's no mechanism for static HTML pages that displays the report.
You can use the CrystalReportViewer DHTML viewer, but that's 'interactive'.
Sincerely,
