How to get two-page 11x17 layout into 8.5x11 PDF?

Good morning,
I am working on a 11x17 brochure which will be folded to appear as 4 pages. Naturally, I would also like to have the PDF so it "prints" into 4 separate pages. However, I just cannot seem to figure out how to accomplish this. I am using InDesign CS5 and my pages are sized to 11x17 in my document.
It seems this should be fairly straight forward to do. If anyone can please explain what I am missing, I would really appreciate it. At this point I am starting to conclude what I want is not possible to do without re-laying it out in a document with 8.5x11 pages. Please tell me I am wrong!
Thank you for your time in advance,
Brent

Also, will the 8.5x11 facing page setup allow our printers to print full 11x17's ? Seems this may cause issues in that regard?
For 4 pages you have two options for setting up, two two-page spreads (4&1 and 2&3) or page1, then 2&3, and page 4. If you use the first method, be sure to check the "spreads" box in the print dialog. If you do the second, Use File > Print Booklet... to impose into two 11 x 17 pages. This method will allow you to lay out any document in multiples of 4 pages and see them as the reader does, which is MUCH easier when you have more than two spreads.
If you want to make PDFs for distibution or to hand off to a commercial printer, the second method is also preferred (you get single pages in consectutive order, as long as you don't choose PDF (Interactive), but that's a different discussion that we can have if you need it). If you need to make PDF to print in-house on 11 x 17, tell us about your ID version number and the OS, and we can offer answers for how to do that, too.

How to combine two pages (not files) into one long vertical page

Is there a way in Acrobat 9 Pro to combine (concatenate) say two 8.5"x11" pages and create a single 8.5"x22" page?
Right now I'm having to do this by importing one page into Photoshop, extending the canvas, and pasting in the second page into the extended canvas space. Very kludgy. While this works, saving the resulting PDF (even after removing the option to preserve editability in Photoshop) still results in a file which is a whopping 2.5MB in size as compared with around 25KB for the original PDF file which was spanning 2 pages.
Ultimately what I'm trying to do is to be able to view a long document which was created in MS Word 2007 and then saved as a PDF, in a web browser by scrolling, without having page breaks. Trying to increase the page dimensions is MS Word 2007 prior to creating the PDF worked to a point but Word 2007's maximum page length is 22 inches and as luck would have it, the document requires about 23 inches in length.
I've tried using the custom page setting under the crop tool in Acrobat 9 but I can't seem to get the modified page dimensions to be accepted. Acrobat 9 seems to accept the input and then nothing changes with the page's dimensions.

A simple way to accomplish the job, though not recommended is to print the 2 page file to a new PDF with multi-up (assuming you select vertical rather than horizontal locations) and adjust the paper in the Adobe PDF printer to be 8.5X22. At least you might give it a shot. Some variation, along with rotation possibly, might work.

How to get the page number in the break section?

How to get the page number in section break level?

Hi Wes
* Create a Field on the margin.
* Set its "Source" to "Page Number"/"Physical Page Number".
* Click "Page Numbering" button.
* In "Reset At" list box, choose the Repeating frame that surrounds your detail group in the layout.
This should cause Reports to increment the page number until the "Company" repeating frame resets.

How to get BW-BPS variable value into Visual Basic?

Hello,

How to get BW-BPS variable value into Visual Basic?
Could you help me?
Thanks in advance.

Arunas Stonys

Hi,
If i understand your requirments correctly ,you need to read the value of the Variable and Put it on the layout. Here is how i would solve this,
Read the value of the variable using an ABAP program.The logic for this would be to read the variable value and post it on the layout on a cell.You can do this by calling the ABAP program on opening the layout.this can be done using LB_EXIT_FM T-code. Now using the SAP delivered SAPAfterDataPut macro, read the cell in which you have placed the variable values and assign it to the necessary values you want to on the layout.All this will be done before the layout opens.
Hope this helps.

How to get the page number according to MarkerID?

I want to get the page number according to the marker element in fdk. I can get the marktext and markid,How to get the page number according to MarkerID in fdk?

zhaopeng,
You need to first get the ID of the paragraph containing the marker (with FP_TextLoc), then get the top-level frame containing the FO_Pgf object (FP_InTextFrame), then get the page containing the FO_TextFrame object (FP_PageFramePage). Here is a function that you can send various objects to in order to get the page ID, including paragraphs (this courtesy of Rick Quatro, originally posted to the Yahoo Framedev list):
F_ObjHandleT GetPage(F_ObjHandleT oDoc, F_ObjHandleT oObj)
F_ObjHandleT oFrame = 0;
IntT iObjType;
F_ObjHandleT oRow, oCell;
while(oObj)
    oFrame = oObj;
    iObjType = F_ApiGetObjectType(oDoc, oObj);
    switch(iObjType)
      case FO_SubCol:
      oObj = F_ApiGetId(oDoc, oObj, FP_ParentTextFrame);
      break;
      case FO_Tbl:
      oRow = F_ApiGetId(oDoc, oObj, FP_FirstRowInTbl);
      oCell = F_ApiGetId(oDoc, oRow, FP_FirstCellInRow);
      oObj = oCell;
      break;
      case FO_Row:
      oCell = F_ApiGetId(oDoc, oObj, FP_FirstCellInRow);
      oObj = oCell;
      break;
      case FO_Cell:
      case FO_Pgf:
      case FO_AFrame:
      oObj = F_ApiGetId(oDoc, oObj, FP_InTextFrame);
      break;
      case FO_TextLine:
      case FO_TextFrame:
      case FO_UnanchoredFrame:
      case FO_Arc:
      case FO_Ellipse:
      case FO_Group:
      case FO_Inset:
      case FO_Line:
      case FO_Math:
      case FO_Polygon:
      case FO_Polyline:
      case FO_Rectangle:
      case FO_RoundRect:
      oObj = F_ApiGetId(oDoc, oObj, FP_FrameParent);
      break;
      //endless loop prevention, stops the process when the top-level frame is reached
      default:
      oObj = 0;
      break;
//if we found the top-level frame, return its page ID, otherwise null
if(oFrame)
    return (F_ApiGetId(oDoc, oFrame, FP_PageFramePage));
else return(0);
...so, you would do something like this if you have the marker ID:
F_TextLocT textLoc;
F_ObjHandleT pageId;
textLoc = F_ApiGetId(docId, markerId, FP_TextLoc);
pageId = GetPage(docId, pageId.objId);
Note: I'm not sure how this handles the case where a paragraph extends across two pages and the marker is located on the second page. My thought is that it might erroneously return the page where the paragraph begins. I don't know how to handle that.

I have an old ipod and want to know how to get everything off it and into my iTunes library. My old computer died and the original library was lost, so don't have any of the content saved anywhere else.

I have an old ipod (it's the very thin oblong one in purple, the one before the one that does video) and want to know how to get everything off it and into my iTunes library. My old computer died and the original library was lost, so don't have any of the content saved anywhere else. I now have an iPhone 5S and listen to music on that, so want to be able to listen to things from the old ipod too.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks very much

Apple normally does not get involved in handling lost objects like this. Since a real name is not installed it will be much more difficult.
You can try contacting Apple support at the US number, assume you are US going to BWI from the listing: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 and explain the situation and see if they offer any suggestions.

How to get input from keyboard scanner into an array

This is probably a very basic question but I'm very new to java..
My task is to reverse a string of five digits which have been entered using keyboard scanner.
E.g. - Entered number - 45896
Output - 69854
I used the StringBuffer(inputString).reverse() command for this, but i need a more basic method to do this.
I thought of defining an array of 5
int[] array = new int [5];
and then using,
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
to enter the numbers. But I can't figure out how to get the five input numbers into the array.
If I can do this I can print the array in reverse order to get my result.
Any other simple method is also welcome.

Hey thanks for the quick reply,
But how can I assign the whole five digit number into the array at once without asking to enter numbers separately?
E.g. - if entered number is 65789
Assign digits into positions,
anArray [0] = 6;
anArray [1] = 5;
anArray [2] = 7;
anArray [3] = 8;
anArray [4] = 9;
I'm really sorry but I am very new to the whole subject.

once i get the data into a plsql table, how to get this plsql table data into the cursor?There is no such thing as a PL/SQL table - it is an array.
It is nothing at all like a table. It cannot be indexed, partitioned, cluster, etc. It does not exist in the SQL engine as an object that can be referenced. It resides in expensive PGA memory and needs to be copied (lock, stock and barrel) to the SQL engine as a bind variable.
It is an extremely primitive structure - and should never be confused as being just like a table.
Its use in SQL statements is also an exception to the rule. Sound and valid technical reasons need to justify why one want to push a PL/SQL array to the SQL engine to run SELECT 's against it.

How to get the Page Number in CS3 with VB?

Hi, Everybody
I use the Visual Basic to read the words and their page number where the Words are at. I want to do it according to Story. Some TextFrame of the Story waw placed in other pages: How can I get the Page number according to the Word that is selected?
For myStoryCounter = 1 to Document.Stories.Count
Set myStory = Document.Stories.Item(myStoryCounter)
For myWordCounter = 1 to myStory.Words.Count
Set myWord = myStory.Words.Item(myWordCounter)
myWordContents = myWord.Contents
Rem ** How to Get the Page Number according to the Word ***

> But I don't understand why Item(1) are set.
because Word can have more than one parent TextFrame - when split across TextFrames
only Character have one ParentTextFrame accessed also by ParentTextFrames.Item(1)
> why Story.TextFrames.Count alway is 0, Is it bug?
no - it's not bug
in older IDs - Story.TextFrames collection refer to all TextFrames as containers for Story text
but in CS3 - collection Story.TextFrames contain all TextFrames inserted as InLine/Anchored objects - same like Story.Rectangles or Story.Ovals
in CS3 - when you want to refer to TextFrames as containers for Story text - you need to use Story.TextContainers - because now you can link TextFrame and Text-On-Path as Story - Text-On-Path isn't TextFrame
