How to print a single spread in Print Booklet
Just got ID CS3 - Have a 20 pg booklet from old version, opened fine, but can't make it print a single spread... tell it to print all, and the pages line up OK in Preview - but when I try and print a single spread, 6-15 for instance, only page 6 shows and prints... booklet feature is biggest reason I spent for update... any help? Thanks, Lamar
As far as I can tell, print booklet does just that: it prints a booklet based on just the pages you choose. It does not build a booklet that you can print spreads from. So, if you wanted to print spread 16-5 from a 20 page file, you would have to include the logical pages of the reverse side of that spread. Namely 6 and 15. (Enter 5,6,15,16 to get a four page booklet with two spreads that correspond to what would be in your 20 pager.)
If you are opening a file that is already in printers spreads, I don't think you should be using Print Booklet at all. Just use the regular print dialogue and choose print spreads.

How to print 'booklet' on Officejet 4500 Wireless?
The office I work in has just bought a new Officejet 4500 Wireless, but we are unsure how to print a booklet. With our old printer, the option came up once you hit print, but now it doesn't. Does anyone know how to print a booklet on this type of printer? Thanks for advice. The opertaing sytem is Windows 7 if that makes a difference.

How to print booklet, 4 pages to an A3 ?
I’d like to be able to print an 81-page “A4 booklet” i.e. it is a set of A3 sheets, printed double sided with 2 A4 prints on each side of each A3 sheet so that there are 3 staples in the middle of the A3 sheet such that I can fold it into an “A4 booklet” and read it as such. I have an OKI 811 printer but there is no "booklet" setting. Can somebody please help?
If the original file is PDF then Acrobat Pro can make booklets, although I don't know if you can make an A3 booklet from A4 originals. A quick test with Pro X shows that the booklet is made by shrinking the A4 to A5 and positioning the 2 x A5's on a rotated A4. But it does change the page order which is good to see.
So you may have to look at software to make the A3 booklet. A quick search found Create Booklet for Mac and BookletCreator -

If you are using smartforms, have a character format created for BOLD and apply it to the text you want to highlight. The remaining text of the line could be applied with a Character format which is not highlighted.

I used to be able to Print Booklet and change the print setting to Save as postscript and Distill it but when I do that now the pages get cropped so they are no longer 12x18.
On the other hand ... the next time you do this, you might want to check out one of the imposition plug-ins for InDesign. I work for Sterling Computing, the maker of IDImposer, so that would be my choice, of course!
Comparing the two alternatives:
The PostScript-Distiller approach:
"I added a new Document Preset for oversize (File >Print Presets >Define... make a new one this size:17.5833 11.5833)
Make sure your bleeds are already set (.125)
File > Print Booklet
Select the Print Preset you just made
click Print Settings...
Select the Print Preset you just made (yes, again)
Printer: PostScript File
PPD: Adobe PDF 9.0
OK
Print
Save the .ps file
Open it with Distiller or Adobe Acrobat Pro
Output to PDF"
Elapsed time: anywhere from 5 minutes to days or even weeks
Chance of errors: moderate
Ease of use: poor
Quality: flattened transparency, loss of managed color
Vintage: late 1980's
vs
The IDImposer approach:
Verify that your Bleeds are set the way you want them, in File > Document Setup... > More Options
Window > Extensions > IDImposer
In IDImposer:
Set the imposition type (Saddle Stitch, probably) and desired Sheet size (18 x 12) in the IDImposer dialog
Click the "Impose" button, and watch the screen flash for a minute or so
Optional: Inspect the results in InDesign. Maybe do a quick proof print.
Export to PDF (from InDesign): File > Export... > Adobe PDF (print)
Elapsed time: typically under 2 minutes, for a 16 page booklet
Quality: excellent -

How to PRINT a CD booklet in Indesign CS 5?
I think it's alittle funny that our professor at my 4yr college is teaching us how to make a CD booklet in Indesign using Masterpages and yet he doesn't know how to print it out.
Well I'm having trouble printing mine out. I'm making a CD booklet for a singer I like and put lyrics/backgrounds on each document.
But, since there is two columns on one page, i made the same background stretched across, so that each page/document had a theme. My teacher said this had something to do with pagination and he didn't know how to print it out.
this is how the pages are setup in indesign masterpages:
1 (this is the cover)
2-3
4-5
6-7
8-9
10-11
12-13
14-15
16-17
18 (this is the back cover)
So whenever i print them out the pictures are not matching up right, to where if i folded each page, each page is not matching the theme.
So here are some screenshots, I'm turning this in next week, and would really appreciate help on the printing parts!! Also, when they print out they are printing upside down i dont know how to fix this.
and this was taken with my phone, see the images dont match up right, and also want them to be not backwards on the back. I am printing these double sided pages!
please help thank you as this is also a learning process fot me!There's a problem, I think, with Petteri's solution, and that's that he's got all the extra pages to the right of the spine. When you do island spreads you have to be sure that you have some sort of symmetry so the pages will back up properly, whether in this case you have all the spreads with two pages on either side of the spine, or if you alternate sides with the ones and threes.
But I can see now why your instructor said he didn't know how you would print this. you want 4 pages together (or two double-width pages, which would be another way to set it up). That combined width is bigger than any sheet of paper that is likely to run in your printers without tiling and pasting the pages together at some point. It would be no problem on a press, but you aren't going to run one booklet on a press. If your printers can handle 13 x 19 sheets you might be able to find a printer willing to cut you some from a lerger sheet, or you might be able to find a ream someplace, but it will be expensive and you might not get the stock you want, and even on that size sheet I'm afraid you'd have clipping on the outer left and right ends where you run into the non-printing area on the edge of the sheet. The other option would be to run on a wide-format inkjet plotter.
Ask your professor if you can print this at reduced size as a proof of concept and you may be able to output on equipment that is available to you at school.
But that brings us back to the problem of page count. Your example has 12 panels, not 18. If you want to have a 4-panel spread like this, you need to be working in multiples of 8 panels for your design -- 4 panels on each side of the sheet. You can leave some blank if you want to, but you need to conscioulsly put those blanks where you want them. -
In a Test UUT's execution, the process model generates and saves a html report. How can add steps to the process model to print the report each time? I'm thinking maybe somehow using an ActiveX call to open IE and then print (1 step or 2?), but I'm a newbie to ActiveX and don't know what server/class/method to use.
==============================================
David Kaufman
LabVIEW Certified Developer
==============================================Using Microsoft Word could be a good solution if you actually have it installed in the computer. In some cases, you may not want to have that application installed in the production floor for any reason (licenses, memory space...).
I am attaching an example that shows how to print the report automatically after testing a UUT using ActiveX to communicate with Internet Explorer. It is more likely that any machine would have this application installed since it occupies a lot less memory space and it ships with any Windows OS. Furthermore, there are just 3 steps that do the trick!
The attached zip file contains a modified sequential model. The entry points ("Single Step" and “Test UUTs”) have one new step that calls the "Print Report" sequence (also added to the sequential model). This new sequence has ActiveX steps that call two methods of the “Internet Explorer (IwebBrowser2)”object class exported by the “Microsoft Internet Controls” automation server. These two methods are:
1) Navigate. Allows you to select the html file to load.
2) ExecWB with the first parameter (cmdid) set to "OLECMDID_PRINT" (prints the loaded file) and the second parameter (cmdexecopt) set to OLECMDEXECOPT_DONTPROMPTUSER" (don’t show the print dialog).
(For more information about these methods, please refer to the MSDN Library)
The example will print the report after each UUT is tested. The "Print Report" step is set to run just if the Report Generation is not disabled (see its preconditions).
This is what you need to do to run the example:
1) Copy the contents of the zip file to: \Components\User\Models\TestStandModels
2) Make sure that the “User Components Directoty” is checked in the Search Directories.
3) Run any sequence using Single Pass or Test UUTs.
WARNING: There is a known issue when using the printing capabilities of the Internet Explorer. This is what is explained in the MSDN library:
"... Internet Explorer prints in the background. This means that the print processing is actually completed asynchronously in a separate thread.Upon return from ExecWB, the print processing may continue for several seconds or even up to a minute or two based on various factors such as the size of the content and how busy your system is currently. The problem is that if you start a print job and then destroy the WebBrowser or close your application before the background thread finishes processing, the thread will abandon its work and the page may not be completely printed..."
There are 2 approaches to work around this problem:
1) Use a delay before destroying the WebBrowser reference (which is done in the cleanup step group of the "Print Report" sequence in the example). This is the approached used in the example. The third step in the “Print Report” sequence is a Wait step. The step is currently set to wait for 3 seconds which has worked for me for almost any report sizes.
2)In Internet Explorer 5 you can work around this problem by sinking the OnAfterPrint event. If you have started a print job, then you should wait to release the WebBrowser until after this event has been received. If you choose this approach you could use the ActiveX events capabilities of Labview or Visual Basic to create a small program detecting this event. There's a simple sample code provided in the MSDN library for VB.
Enjoy!

How to print multiple copies on one page ?
How to print multiple copies of one document on one page ?
in coreldraw I used to make the document -for example a business card 5x9 - and when sending to print it automatically placed the number of cards that would fit in my A4 sheet.
how do I make the same operation in Indesign.
thanksHi, Peter S.
>I can see that as a shortcut to printing a page of different cards for multiple people, but to do a simple n-up of a single card it seems overly complex to me. What am I missing?
* It's just an alternative to copy/paste and step/repeat.
* For a one-time only use, perhaps it's a little more complex than necessary. But for any future needs, only the content of the data file needs to be changed, either by editing, or by pointing to a new data file. If different cards for multiple people becomes necessary, it's ready to go.

This question was solved.
View Solution.On my OJ Pro 8600, When I go to print a # 10 envelope, it feeds the envelope through and then prints the address on a letter page. I was forced to set the printer preferences to #10 envelope, and within Word, set the paper type to # 10 envelope, set Word up for center feed, and then put everything back to print normally. ON my 6500 all I had to do was hit print. There must be a way to print single envelopes without jumping through all these hoops!!

How do I "Print Booklet" with just odd pages and even pages for duplexing . . options disabled
I have InDesign CS5.5 on a Windows 7 64-bit machine hooked to a Xerox 7750 printer. I have created a 8.5x11 portrait document and trying to create a booklet on 12x18 sheets.
I need to print duplex manually and so I need to print just the odd spreads and then the even spreads.
I have printed to Adobe PDF and printed from my created PDF file and have it working, but I want to know why InDesign won't let me do it. When I click "File > Print Booklet > Print Settings" then it shows the Print Dialog box with the Pages section, which includes the Sequence that normally would allow me to do Odd Pages or Even Pages, but it is disabled. Why? I can define Print Presets and I can choose Odd Pages, but when I choose that in the Preset box it does not show anything, everything is still disabled.
Anybody have any idea of why it is disabled? Is it my printer driver?I too was very frustrated after upgrading to indesign cs5.5 and the latest LION OS on my new MAC. I missed the odd/even page selection in the print dialog box within Indesign. I tried about everything and found little of value in various forums. But I did find a workable solution that makes since in terms of Apple's OS.
My objective is to "impose" my document and also end up with a file that I can just print again and again without "ripping" in the InDesign Print Booklet Dialog.
Here is the quick version of what to do. I am not including every little step with pictures. =) (I can if there is interest.)
1. create your document
2. Print Booklet
3. At the first dialog box, just ignore the printer in print preset (you will come back to this) and go to the 2-up perfect bound option and select 16 page signatures. This will impose 2-up on 4 physical pieces of paper printed both sides. So 16 of your document pages printed duplex on 4 physical sheets of paper. It would be nice to then just select the printer and scaling, etc. and the option to print even pages, flip over and then print odd pages but that ain't an option. If you have different needs, do the math and input the correct numbers before proceeding
4. Click on Print Settings to pull up a second dialog box.
5. Select for Printer PostScript File (not your printer) Also select for PPD your printer or Adobe PDF 9 if you have that installed. Don't obsess on this just pick your Printer for the PPD.
6. Select 1 copy and All Pages while in the General Tab
7. Select the Setup Tab Here is where you put in the actual physical paper size that you are going to print your document on. Don't scale to fit. You must do this. If you feel the need, check out all the tabs and options but for now, you are just trying to get an output file. You probably do want to select CENTER for page position in this same setup tab.
8. Hit OK whcih will return you to the original dialog. Check when you return to be sure that at the top Printer is populated with PostScript File. Click on Print and give the thing a name and a location to save at the resulting dialog.
Breathe as you are almost home. You have sucessfully created a file that can be called up again and again without opening InDesign. (albeit, a postscript file but not a problem)
Now,
1. Double click on this new file (it will have a .ps extention) or just open it in your PREVIEW (apple supplied utility) Preview is where you accomplish the even and odd page objective.
2. Preview will show you a short progress dialog while it rips this postscript file into a PDF.
3. Click on PRINT
4. Select your printer,page range, select the Paper Size (again not document size but the size sheet that you are printing the 2-up , imposed (booklet) document on. If not in the selection dialog, then use the custom option to create it (custom paper size) and give it a name.
5. Click on SCALE and insert 100% in place of the weird number that it will insert for you. You will then see your document correctly displayed in the sidebar preview window.
6. OK, now what you have been waiting for. Click on the box that says Preview (the active window) and select Paper Handling from the drop-down and select from Pages to Print the coveted odd or even page selection. You can also do other things that should have been back at the InDesign print dialog but are now gone. Explore. Enjoy.
7. You will have to work out your own work flow about reverse or no reverse order and how to flip, etc. But you will be working with something predictable at this point.
8. Since this has been ripped into a PDF , you might as well Click on the PDF button and click on save as a PDF at this point to save that postscript to PDF rip. Also print using PREVIEW for the newly created PDF file next time as you will not have to learn a bunch of new dialogs and be frustrated all over again.
