How to save CS3 print presets?

Greetings,
Here is my issue: When I go to the print dialog and choose save preset, I make the changes ( I want a tabloid preset that selects tray 4 from our Splash server/Docucolor 12 setup) but when I select the "Printer" button and choose "Paper Feed" and switch it from Auto select to Tray 4, it won't retain my Tray 4 setting. It remembers everything else. This causes the print job to go to the error queue with the error "no 11x17 paper trays installed" - when there are and paper is in there.
I want to be able to share this preset with the other designers in the office.
Mac OS 10.4.11/Adobe CS3 Design Standard
Any thoughts?

Are the optional trays listed in the printer setup for your printer? Maybe they need to be activated.

Save InD CS3 Print Presets

I am running CS3 Premium under Win XPro. I have just received my upgrade to CS4. Do I need to do anything special to save my print presets in InDesign CS3 for use with CS4 before I install?

Homeboy,
You specifically asked if you needed anything special to do this. (I read do but my mind processed if you needed anything) I informed you first that you did not. Next, I described the process with the tools you already had. (InDesign)
To top it off, Peter comes and steals my thunder. I'm reporting Peter's post as abuse.
BTW, all of this typed with a .
I'm glad Peter's post navigated you through my befuddled mind.
Buko… so… we meet again.

Distribution of InDesign CS3 Print Presets

Is there a way to "mass" distribute InDesign Print Presets for InDesign CS3?
Have a large list of Print Presets saved on a server. Would like to "push" them out to over 20 production Macs with CS3, using something like Apple Remote Desktop. Each Print Preset that exists on the server are also on one specific Mac. Each has a unique name. But can NOT find these names when doing a search on the Mac. Where are they actually being stored?

The CS3 print presets are stored in the ID Preferences (~/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/ Version 5.0/InDesign Defaults).
Here is a link to an InDesign Secrets article which talks about how to export the presets to a .prst file:
This article covers CS and CS2, but I'm guessing it's the same for CS3.

How to find old print presets

Hello, Due to a problem with Indesign CC 2014 (latest version) I deleted all the preferences on start up (by holding down 4 keys).
However, my print presets have disappeared – I'm not sure where they're kept in order to replace them. Any ideas?
My other thought was to open older version of Indesign CS6 and CS5 – but they no longer appear to be there either.
I was hoping to enter time machine and reinstate them – what is the file called – and where is it actually located please....
Thanks

I was hoping to enter time machine and reinstate them
If Time Machine was backing up your user folder you should be able to go back and get the ID prefs you trashed, reinstall them, save the print presets, and then trash the prefs again.
So get this folder from the backup:
Disk▸ Users ▸ userfolder ▸ Library ▸ Preferences ▸ Adobe InDesign ▸ Version 10.0
Quit InDesign and replace the new Version 10.0 folder that was created when you reset the prefs with the backup and restart ID. Assuming your problem didn't prevent ID from launching, you should now be able to save a copy of your presets via File>Print Presets>Define... selecting all of the presets in the list and clicking the Save button.

How can I change print presets?

Between the last time I used InDesign (CS3) and now, I upgraded my Mac system software to OS 10.9.5 AND replaced my old printer (which had died) with a new one. Now when I open a doc in InDesign CS3, I can work with it just fine, but can't print it. Initially, the PRINT command would cause the beach ball to spin and the ID to crash. When I looked deeper, I find that ID is still retaining my old printer's information as the default printer, even though I deleted it from the system (I not only deleted the old printer via System Preferences for printing, I actually RESET the printer preferences). My new printer is the only printer (thus the default printer). However, ID doesn't see it. When I look at ID's FILE/PRINT PRESETS menu and click "DEFINE," it shows me that the preset [default] printer is my old printer. If I then click on "New..." ID crashes; if I click on "Edit..." ID crashes.
How can I get ID to see/recognize my new printer? Is there an outdated list of printers somewhere within CS3 that doesn't include my new printer?
Any help will be appreciated.
Many thanks

First of all, thank you both for all your help.
I found and trashed the Version 5.0 files in both the cache and preferences folders, and when I launched ID again and checked the print presets, lo and behold, there was my new printer’s description shown as the ! My joy was short-lived, however, because the “Print…” command still resulted in nothing more than a spinning beach ball and eventual ID crash. I trashed the newly created Version 5.0 folders again, AND, for good measure, did the keyboard approach for replacing ID preferences, too. Still a no-go for printing. So, something else is going on that prevents ID from printing my docs.
It finally occurred to me to export the ID doc as a PDF, and I WAS able to print that from Reader, so that’s a work-around I can live with, I think. I’m hesitant to uninstall everything, then reinstall from my ancient CS3 disks and upgrade from the website… it’s just so much work and it might not improve my situation. If the PDF option fails to continue to do the trick, maybe I’ll tackle the re-install. If I did as much graphics work as I used to a few years ago, it would be worth upgrading, but…
For now, you HAVE answered my original question, and I thank you again for the effort.

How to save landscape print layout for report designed in SQL Server 2005

How to save page setup for a report wich was designed in SQL Server 2005 RS? Each time report is previewed, I have to change portrate to landscape orientation and left and right marging from 0,5 to 0,25, to be able to see all fieldas on the report.
Thanks!

Hi, Marina;
Which version of Crystal Reports are you using? Once you set a report to Landscape, and save the report, it should stay that way, unless you change to a different printer.

Jonathan

InDesign CS3 Print Presets

Have a print preset that creates a PDF w/thumbnails, used successfully in CS2, which put the PDF file on the desktop. Loaded all our print presets into CS3, looks like file was created, but cannot for the life of me figure out where the file went! Looked everywhere in Finder ... any ideas?
(Would love to export to PDF w/thumbnails, but I don't see a way to do that?)

No, that setting only puts the thumbnails in the side bar.
I'd love to see your script that included them as an extra page. Can you share? Oh, wait, I think I misunderstood, You mean you want to print what amounts to a contact sheet of PDF pages.
Your script may have some code that is CS2 specific (thought I'd expect it throw an error) which could be corrected by one of the folks who write scripts.
Another possibility is doing it out of bridge, but I don't know what that would take, either.

How to save and print PDFs?

For some reason, I am no longer able to save or print PDFs that I download from the internet. This problem developed in the past 2 days, and I never had this problem before. I am able to see the PDF when I download it, but when I go to the saved file, I get a message saying that the file can't be opened because it is empty. In other cases, I would get a message saying the Adobe Reader couldn't open the file because it is not supported, and I also get a message saying that the website blocked Adobe Reader. When I try to print, I get a blank page. I had been using Preview as default to read my PDFs. I thought maybe the problem was that I should be using Adobe Reader as default, so I switched to that. That didn't help the situation. Then, I tried removing all my versions of Adobe Reader entirely from my computer. I could, however, not figure out how to set Preview as default, again, and I still was not able to save or print any PDFs. Next, I installed the latest version of Adobe Reader, fresh, in my computer. Now I'm back to square 1. And I still don't know how to set Preview as the default reader. But I don't think that's going to make any difference, as it was the default reader when this problem began. My operating system is OS X 10.8.5. My Safari is 6.1.3. Please help!

Plus, as I said, I had this problem BEFORE I used the Adobe Reader as the default. In fact, I switched from Preview, to Reader as the default only because I was having the problem and I thought it would help (which it didn't). I would now like to switch back to Preview as the default, but don't know how to do this. Can you tell me how?

Premier CS3 how to save your settings (Presets) ?

I installed my Premier CS3 on my new PC and wanted to use some of my old PRESET setting that i have saved on my other PC...
Ok here its :
On my old PC i modified let's say a Trapcode plug in and saved it under PRESET , basically i chnged certain prameters within that plug in and saved it under a new name, now that i upgraded my PC and reinstalled my Premier on the new PC, is there any way i could go to my old PC and somehow save that file and use it on my new PC, so when i try to use my old preset, i get the same settings ?
thanks !

Ok Harm here its..
I used the Magic Bullet's MisFire on one of my clips, but you know how you goto effect control settings and change certain parameters and then you can save it under a user PRESET, which appears on top of all effects as Presets, ok there we go .
so, everytime i wanna use the MisFire i goto Presets on top of effect page and use that one instead of the actual MisFire from Magic Bullet video effect section, that way i don't have to change any parameters , its already set the way i wanted to look !

How to create a Print Preset

I am migrating from a Windows environment to a mac. I have also updated my software from PS CS3 to Elements 12. In the Windows environment when printing my note cards all I had to do was click on print, which brought up a dialog box. I then clicked on page setup which brought me to an area where I selected a preset which had all of the settings needed to print my note cards. How do I duplicate this in Elements 12 and the mac environment?
Thx

In the OS X window that opens after you click Print in the PSE print window, click the Show Details button to expand the window and make your choices for paper, ink, etc, then click the Presets menu at the top of the window and choose Save Current Settings as Preset:

Unable to save HP printer presets under Leopard

I frequently print a colored first page from the manual paper tray and the rest of the document from another tray. Presets previously saved, work flawlessly under Tiger. I am not able to save presets under Leopard - all attempts revert to default settings. Maddening because we do numerous different print jobs - some requiring staples and collating, some with a color first page, some a mix of both. One of a kind -- no problem -- print 50 and you have to set the preset for each copy. AARG!! Solution -- unacceptable!! Boot under Tiger.

This is a known problem and will most likely require an update form Apple:

How to save picture name preset in Aperture

Hey Aperture freaks,
I do not find a way to store my individual name preset of the section picture import
Can somebody give me a hint
System : MacBookPro with 10.9.2 plus Aperture 3.5.1
Background : had to reinstall my system by reloading all original software. With this you get the standard set-up for file naming in the picture import section. the archive recovery I have done and have all pictures and its working files back, but what is missing is the user surface setup of APERTURE, which I had before. This has been not stored in the recovery file
What did I do wrong
Thanks for the helps
Best regards
FJ
n.b.: in the attachment I put a screenprint of the input section I am talking about

but what is missing is the user surface setup of APERTURE, which I had before. This has been not stored in the recovery file
How did you restore your home folder after you restored your system?
The file naming presets and other presets you are looking for are stored in your user library in your home folder in the folder
~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/FileNamingPresets.plist
Restore the files in this folder from your backup before you erased your drive, e.g. FileNamingPresets.plist
You user library may still be hidden, as is the default in Mavericks: To open your hidden user library:
Select the "Home" folder icon (the little house) in the Finder's sidebar and press the key combination ⌘J to open the "view options".
Enable "Show Library Folder".
Then open the Home folder and open the Library folder inside and navigate to ~/Library/Application Support/Aperture
