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

How to create a map that is larger than the game in width and height?

hi,
i wounder how i can create a map(not the design) that is larger than the game in width and height, part of it will appear in the main page and anther part you can move to it after you press the arrow symbol, but the map is just one image so i want put it in line and out line the game page, and the out line part includes buttons and symbols the player can use, but it will be in line and the other part will be out line when you press the left arrow or the down arrow, how i can do that?
and is that possible to animate it so when the player press the arrow, will give it action to start the animation in one sec, i know how to animate it if that possible but i don't know which code i will use for the mouse click with the arrow symbol, and how to use the same code in the same symbol to start anther animation depending on which part of the map is on?

I don't know a lot about mask and masked layers and how to work with the normal layers beside i will use some 3D graphics but not in the background, i will explain all this to you to be more clearly.
first i am using action script 3.0
close ex,
you have 2d map"image" 900*300 pixel.
this image contains some 2d symbols when you click will go to anther normal map (anther normal layer) so they must appear.
your game 320*320 px, and the place the map will show on 300*300, and there's basics objects will be in most pages including the page that show the map so i don't know a lot about how this will work with mask layers.
so you can only see the left side of the map image and what it contains, while there's two arrows one to the left and one to the right there's three cases here,
first when it show the left side(start from x:0 to x:300), the left arrow will not active when you press and the right arrow will start an animation that make the map image move to the mid side in one sec when you press.
in mid side (start from x:301 to x:600) the same left arrow will active when you press to send you back to the left side while the same right arrow will be active to send you not to the mid side but to the right side,
when moved to the right side the same left arrow will be active to send you to the mid and the right will not active when you press and depending on that,
first how to make the large image appear with the three sides in the same place without effecting the other objects "like disappearing them" ?
and the codes i need in the same left or right arrow symbol to make different actions with the same symbol when clicked depending on which part of the map is on.

How to import PDF document to Pages

I am attempting to import a LaTex created PDF book into Pages so I can add and introduction, etc.. to the book and further refine some of the paging and print style. This used to be possible in AppleWorks but seems to be missing in pages and now requires all editing to be done by purchasing full Adobe Acrobat which is extremely costly for a non corporate user. I have also attempted to use several applications that purport to be able to edit PDF Doc direct but NONE of them, so far, retain the original paging information therefore rendering them USELESS for any practical use.
Does anyone know of a widget/etc that can be added to Pages that would open the document as a Pages document while retaining ALL paging information?

I would dearly like to be able to fix LaTex to output a Pages document but that is waaayayyayayay beyond my capabilities and I doubt the developers of LaTex would even want to try so that is totally out of the question. The next possibility would be to develop some kind of macro script that would do the same thing but again that is beyond my capabilities.
I just check DataViz and they show an old MacLinks that seems to be able to convert PDF to CWK (WP) file. I also remember one from my OLD Apple IIGS (1992) days that had the same capability but that could not be proted to the Mac and I used it quite a lot somewhat later after I started genealogical research for downloading page files.
Thanks to all who answered and we may as well call this one unsolvable.

How do I resize a toolbar button? It is larger than the standard buttons, even on use small icon.

I have an extension for clearing cache and it has a convenient button on my toolbar. But, the button is larger than the other buttons on the toolbar, even with "use small icons" turned on. Can I talk to the button in the userChrome.css or some other way to scale it down?

Which extension did you install?
This one:
*Clear Cache Button: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/clear-cache-button/
<pre><nowiki>#clearcache-toolbarbutton .toolbarbutton-icon {
height: 16px !important;
width: 16px !important;
}</nowiki></pre>

Navigate an image that is larger than the stage?

Hello, I would like some assistance getting this to work. I'm not even sure if its possible, but I will be eternally grateful for an answer.
I would like to have an image much larger than the stage, with little buttons all over it that play a MC when moused over. When the mouse reaches the edge of the screen, I want it to scroll so that the viewer can explore the whole image.
In short, its a map with destinations, and on mouse over the destinations play a MC. I'd like the viewer to be able to "explore" the map with the mouse.
It seems simple, is there a good way to do it?
Also, once it is done, is there a way to begin with the entire image shown, but then have it tween to its final (Very large) size, without breaking that functionality.
Thank you so much. This is for a class project and I'm trying to "go above and beyond" but, its a little to beyond for me.
Kayla

To make the image move, based on the mouse position you might do something like this:
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, checkMouse);
function checkMouse(e:Event):void
     if(mouseX > 500){
          myImage.x -= 1;
     if(mouseY < 100){
          myImage.y += 1;
That's just a simple example. You'll need to check the bottom and left too... and you'll need to stop your image from moving past its edges:
if(myImage.x + myImage.width < theRightEdge){
     myImage.x = theRightEdge - myImage.width;
to keep it from going too far left...
I would also suggest using TweenLite to do your tweening. You can simply google TweenLite to find it.

How to import an image into indesign?

how do i import an image from google images into indesign and then use as a background like a watermark?

Save it out of Google Images to your hard drive. It'll probably be a JPEG file. Choose File > Place to place the image. To use it as a watermark, it will have to be on a lower layer or lower in the stacking order than other objects on the page.
It sounds like you could use some help learning InDesign. I highly recommend Sandee Cohen's Visual QuickStart Guide, which is available for every version of InDesign. It's inexpensive and will save a lot of time learning the program:

How to import URL image into Adobe Muse ?

Hello dear Adobe Community,
I have a (silly) question, I'm building my website on muse and I can't find the way to import URL image.
Are you forced to have all your image stocked in website ? I used to have everything on Google Plus to save me some storage place for the HD image and then to load it via URL in my old website.
Is there anyway to import URL image ?
Thanks you very much for your answers !

Hello,
In case of google plus you can do that. Please follow the steps below.
Step 1. Get the url of the image from google plus by Right click > Copy Image URL
Step 2. Now you need to insert the HTML codes mentioned below in Muse by going to Object > Insert HTML
<img src="ImageURL" width="400" height="400">
You need to replace "ImageURL" with the link you copied from step 1. Please make sure the images are public.
Please let me know if you face any difficulty.
Regards
Vivek

How do import an image into CS3 and resize it?

Hi, let me say first I know very little of Illustrator C3. I have a poster that was created by someone else. I'm supposed to take that image and resize to fit on a pop up banner. I created a new doc in Ill. with the correct dimensions and copied and pasted the image. Now how to I get the original image with layers to conform to the new doc. sizing? I need to take the image and enlarge it and make it fit within the confines of my new doc. How do I do that without distorting the image.

Shift, Ctrl and Alt modifier keys offer constraining options in all Adobe programs. Shift will retain proportions, Alt scale from the center etc. and when combined you can scale constrained from the center. anyway, the question is, what you are referring to by "image". Bitmaps as in photographs or other pixel images? Then AI is the wrong choice. You need to do such things in Photoshop. If its a PDF or another AI file, scaling should be no problem. you may just wish to group items before doing so to retain their relative placement within teh group and avoid unpleasant surprises when you only mass-select them.

Is there a way to import .obj files into Motion so that motion can see the object as a 3D object?

I would like to import 3D objects with .obj file extensions into Motion. Is there a plug in or add on that allows you to do this? Is there any way of getting Motion to recognise 3D images? Other programs such as Adobe's After Effects (AE) achieves this easily and allows you to manipulate the image in 3D space.

How 2 EXPORT :30 seq into a QickTime that's less than 10mb?

I'm trying to export a 30 second sequence (stereo music, some photos) to a quicktime that will allow me to email it via Yahoo..... of course, it needs to be less than 10 mb to do this.... any ideas?
I've exported the Quicktime at Offline RT (PhotoJpeg) but it comes up as around 27mb. Exporting using QT conversion doesn't seem to be an option, since it's grayed out....
Any ideas how to compress this baby down to nothing?
Thanks.
Mark

Just a quick note about your post... although it is correct I just wanted to make sure everyone who reads it understands that Quicktime includes all of the compression formats. Like windows media formats, QT is the basis of ALL video on the mac. It is even what allows WMP to play on the mac machines.
So -- yes, MP4 is quicktime... so is Mpeg1.
But you are correct. If you do what I said with the Broadband High the default settings under OPTION will be h.264. People will need QT7 to see that format of QT, so you might want to change it to mp4.
Good luck,
CaptM

How do I export a file from iMovie that is larger than 15min?

I currently made a video on iMovie that I would like to export. However everything I have tried ends with a message coming from iMovie saying the file is too long. I've heard of exporting to quicktime but in the share option i don't see quicktime. I haven't tried just putting a usb in and seeing if i can come how paste it in but i don't think that will work.
Need this for Valentines Day any suggestions would be great!

So early i tried to convert it into a file first and at first it said it didn't work. Then the file popped up, but i couldn't open it and this message popped up "To see if additional software is available that will enable QuickTime Player to open the movie, click Tell Me More.". Which was not useful at all. But after a while i guess it completed exporting and i can now access it as a file. Thought I'd share my experience.

InDesign CS3 Scripting XML Import Multiple Images into same Text Frame

I am having trouble importing multiple images into the same Text Frame using XML import. I imported 5 images into the text frame. However, all 5 images are laying on top of one another. Does anyone know if there is a way to have all images laying out like how Microsoft Word handles inline images, i.e., laying out next image to the right of previsous image in the same line and if there is not enough space left in the line, then wrap to next line. Thanks in advance. I understand I could use JavaScript to do post import processing, e.g, calculate the image size and place each images accordingly. But I am trying to see whether there is a way to do this without scripts.

You can apply an object style to all anchored images by script. A text frame containing main flow should be selected.
var doc = app.activeDocument;
var textFrame = app.selection[0];
var rectangles = textFrame.texts[0].rectangles;
if (rectangles.length > 0) {
for (var i=0; i < rectangles.length; i++) {
rectangles[i].appliedObjectStyle = doc.objectStyles.item("Cover");
However, there is a better approach:
Step 1
Create place holders for a single "Book" element and format it as needed -- apply an object style to the cover.
Step 2
Import the xml file -- the placeholders are replaced with data from the 1st xml element
Step 3
Drag & drop the element containing all "Books" elements into the main flow -- all elements are placed and formatted the same way as in step 1.
Finally, add a new page, click the overset text icon and autoflow text to add pages so that to fit all the text.
Hope this helps.
