How to make a 5x7 document

I am probably making this much more difficult then it is. I am having a hard time making a 5 x 7 document in pages (think for inside a picture frame.. but I want a note). Please help!

Hi Lauren,
There are two approaches. If you are going to print on 5 X 7 paper, then you will make a custom paper size for your document. If you are going to be printing on standard paper and trimming it down, you will just put some guidelines or printable lines on your document at 5" and 7", or you can work in a 5 X 7 text box. In the latter case, you can get two 5 X 7 pages per sheet.
To produce a 5 X 7 paper size, go to the Document Inspector, Document Tab, and click on Page Setup. In the Setup menu, click on Paper Size and select Manage Custom Sizes. Click the + sign under the box on the left and give your size a name, then set the dimensions and click OK.
Regards,
Jerry

  • How to make previous version documents(CS1 and CS3) without extension  readable in InDesign CS5

    I have some previous version documents of CS1 and CS3  on Mac  which have been saved without any extension e.g 300, CS3doc etc.
    When I open such documents in InDesign CS5 they appear to be unreadable .  Only on  selecting 'All documents' filter  I am able to open those documents.
    I want to make all such documents (which are without extension) readable with 'All Readable Documents ' also .
    How I can do that, please  help me !!!!!

    The first thing I'd do is make sure the issue is really what I suspect it is - i.e. I suspect your extension-less documents don't have the proper type and creator.
    If you fire up a Terminal window, you should be able to use the GetFileInfo command to check one of the files:
    Assume 'sampleFile' is sitting on your desktop, you'd do
    GetFileInfo ~/Desktop/sampleFile
    (not sure when/whether GetFileInfo is installed on a Mac - I think it used to be part of Apple's developer tools, but on my Snow Leopard it resides in /usr/bin)
    Check what it says for 'type' and 'creator'.
    If these are not correct, we've confirmed that that's the reason why they don't show up in your file dialog.
    If the issue is type/creator related, I can think of the following options:
    a) Change your code to accept ANY file type/extension - I suspect this would work (not tested!):
    openFileDialog->AddType( '????' );
    If memory serves right, '????' should be accepted as a wildcard.
    b) correct the file types BEFORE they are viewed in the File Dialog - for example, if these files are in a very specific folder somewhere, you might be able to scan the folder, and correct their type and creator (e.g. iterate through all extensionless files in folder 'xyz' and change their type and creator). A lot depends on how those files get there, and whether they are tied to a specific folder or not - are they 'old' files, or are they being generated in some workflow? If they're all over a user's system or all over a file server, such pre-scanning and cleaning up file types approach will be a no-go.

  • How to:  make a new document in Pages based a Pdf layout (same measures)

    Hi,
    hope someone can help me,
    for a couple of days I have been on Google looking for a solution, but I can't find any
    I have a macbook ( Mavericks) and iWork / PAGES to make bussinesscards, invitations, flyers ....
    From the online printershop Flyer.be  I received a PDF- layout with the exact messures on how my documents must be.
    I know that from Pages I can tranfer my new made documents to PDF (as the printershop requiers) that's no problem
    BUT
    how do I import their PDF-layout into PAGES?
    can this be done in Automator, if yes, How?
    can I convert their PDF to a Template for PAGES?
    if I don't use their PDF- layout but simply use the original Templates that are in PAGES (for example: envelop), the messures are never the same as those required by the printershop,  how can I solve this?
    Dus: I need to find out how to use their messures and be able to work in iWork.
    Hope it's clearly explaned - as my native language is Dutch
    Anyone ? any idee?
    Thanks in advance.
    Greetings Speedy

    That is not a template for a Business Card. It looks like the template for a Compliments Slip 210 x 100mm.
    Also you do not use the Ruler to position things accurately, you use:
    Format > Arrange > Size/Position
    It looks like the Printer wants each item to be its own document, with Page setup to final size.
    There will be a problem however with the page bleed (the image that goes off the edge of the paper) because Pages does not have this.
    Swift Publisher does.
    PDF files are usually not editable, but Adobe Illustrator will open them and edit them and has all the tools you need to format the Stationery.
    Sketch can also open and edit pdfs now and is IMHO absolutely brilliant as well as beautiful to look at.

  • How to make a PDF document open with bookmarks showing

  • How to make a certain document open as the default in Pages?

    How can I set up Pages, so that a certain document opens as the default each time I start Pages? I keep my todo list as a Pages document. When I start Pages I'd like that to open as the default instead of a new blank page. Thanks in advance.

    Jim
    +Menu > Pages > Preferences > General > For New Documents: > Use template: > Choose…+
    or if you don't want a template, when the Chooser comes up, down the bottom corner are 2 buttons:
    *Open Recent* and *Open an Existing File…*
    But better would be drag the document to your Dock and open it direct from there.
    I also recommend you look at:

    It is absolutely gorgeous and as part of your desk top less intrusive to your work.

  • How to make InDesign CS5 documents lock to other users on network when open

    We have multiple users using InDesign CS5 across our network.  In InDesign CS4 when one person had a page open, it was locked to any other users, but in CS5 the pages are not locked, and this causes changes not to be saved.  We want them to lock, any suggestions?

    We have a mac environment, with a mac server.  Editorial dept. opens the pages to put stories on, and at different times another dept. needs the pages to put ads on the page. We all use InDesign CS5. When any dept has a page open, it does show the .idlk file, but still allows another user to open the document.  However, once in a while,  it locks it and doesn't let anyone else open it, which is what we want.  This all worked in InDesign 4,  it started when we upgraded to CS5.  We aren't doing anything out of the ordinary.

  • How to make Crystal Report Document from MS Word document?

    Hi
    Is it any way to use MS Word document as template for Crystal Report document.
    I can Insert document as OLE Object, but I want to disassemble it to Text Objects.
    Thanks.

    You can insert 1 page at a time as background (Insert in page header and elect to Underlay following section).
    There is also 1 3rd-party tool that can use formulas from a Crystal report to fill a template MS Word document and save/email to a new MS Word document.
    If you explain the actual end-product required by the user, it may be easier to suggest a solution.

    A technician would be accessing Service call form through the web browser over the internet. He would be mentioning the CALLID and will be entering the user defined fields that are dispatch date, technician out date and time to name a few from the web browser through a web page, which should get populated into SAP Business One database.  We are going for SAP Business One 2007B version with SQL server 2005 database. I went through the web tools web services and I could not find a web service related to service module. Can you please advise me how to go about with this scenario?

  • How to make a scanned document into text in pages to save time from rewritting it?

    HELP!!! Just like there is a way for Word Microsoft to have a document scanned and then convert it to text to save time from rewritting/retyping it, I want to know if there is a way for pages?  If so, please tell me at least step by step. thank you.

    Hi penguin,
    You might try PDF OCR X, a drag and drop application for OS X. The 'community' version is free, but is limited to single page PDF documents. The 'enterprise' version removes that limitation, but costs $30 (US).

  • I need to make a pdf document, made in photoshop, 'page turn' and then add it to my website. I know I can do this in indesign but indesign will not open pdf files for some inexplicable reason. Any ideas how I can do it without completely starting again?

    I need to make a pdf document, already made in photoshop, 'page turn' and then add it to my website as an e-brochure. I know I can do this in indesign but indesign will not open pdf files for some inexplicable reason. Any ideas how I can do it without completely starting again?

    Hello waitingone,
    please try this (all terms are translated from my German programs to my best knowledge):
    1. Did the creator of the pdf file enable the import options?
    2. See import options: choose an other visibility option for your layer.
    3. Let you show the import options and click into one with a black background and try these out (often a gray is selected).
    4. See trimming: try the different modes there. Often works: "Media".
    5. Is the pdf file (eg from Word) correctly created?
    6. Is the PDF file protected? >>> no import possible.
    7. If that does not help, store the pdf file in Acrobat, repair possible errors, run the PDF Optimizer before placing in InDesign.
    Good luck!

  • How do i upload Pages documents and folders to iCloud and make sure they sync on all my devices?

    Hi,
    I'm new to iCloud and don't really know how to use it yet.  I have a desktop Mac, a Macbook Pro laptop and an iPad.  Currently all my Pages documents are on my desktop computer.  I would like to upload them to iCloud and then have it set so that they automatically sync and I can access them on all my devices.  I want to make sure I always have the most up to date version of a document when I open it on any device, without having to update manually.  Can anyone tell me please how I do this?  Can I keep them in folders (there are a lot of documents!). 
    Also, because I just upgraded Pages and was previously using Pages 09 it keeps asking me each time I open a document if I want to upgrade it to the current Pages.  Can I somehow set this as default now so I won't keep having to say yes?
    Thanks for any help!

    To use icloud,  enable it (using the same Apple ID) on all your devices. If you move a document that already exists to iCloud, it will automatically be available to all your devices. Ditto on new doc: if you save it to icloud when you name it, it will automatically be available to all your devices.  If you make a change on one device, you'll be prompted on other devices to pick the one you want to keep,
    One BIG proviso: pages 5.1, and Pages for icloud,  are VERY BUGGY. Users here complain of corrupted files, lost data, the program hanging, etc. DO NOT user them for anything you care about.
    Also, Pages 5.1, as exhaustively documented here, is a pale shadow of Pages 4.3. Nearly a hundred features present in 4.3 are not present in Pages 5.1, including such basic things as mail merge, bookmarks, meaningful Applescript and Services support. You cannot even set the default zoom, reliably export documents with links to a PDF, or view comments while editing (nor can you print comments).  It is useless for page layout since you can no longer view a page spread, nor set alernating left/right margins and headers and footers.  A lot of advance typographical support has gone missing, too. Non contgious text selection? Gone. How many pages in your document?  You have to dig down in the little "word count" bubble (after turning it on) to find out. Why?  As an early review put it, Pages 5 is an "unmitigated disaster."
    To stop being promted to update, go to system preferences and uncheck "automatically check for updates."

  • How do you make pages default document reader

    Hi
    I have just started using pages and i cant seem to work out how to make it the default application to open up the many documents i have.
    Every time i open a document it opens in textedit, i know that you can choose in properties with which program to open it with, but i am getting really fed up of doing this.
    is there any way to make pages the default instead of textedit program.
    Ta
    Karl
    p.s I used to use MS office but i cant be bothered to reinstall it and most of my docs are .doc (office format)

    kb,
    You can set .doc files to open in Pages, and it’s surprisingly easy: just go to the Finder, single-click on any .doc file, then type command-I (Get Info). Click on the Open With... menu and select Pages (or navigate to Pages if it’'s not in the menu). To make all .doc files open in Pages, click on the Change All button.
    You can do the same thing with other types of files, like RTF or plain text.

  • How to make warehouse field inactive for all users in all documents autom.

    Hi All,
    Can anyone pls tell me "**how to make warehouse field inactive for all users in all documents without having to do it through form setting** "for each and every user. It should be visible but inactive
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi,
    As a work around create a warehouse SelectWH and map the mandatory acoounts as a On hold account(in chart of accounts).So there will not be any posting on this account.
    And set this warehouse as default warehouse for all users.
    So without selecting the appropriate warehouse the user can not add the document.
    I think this might resolve you issue.
