How to specify pagesize and printer at runtime

With Reports 6, how do you automatically configure a report to print on 8.5 x 14 inch paper to a specific printer after FIRST displaying the report in the Previewer?
We have tried every conceivable combination of pagesize/desname/desformat/etc. parameters passed in via run_report_object from forms. The specified pagesize is continually ignored, defaulting to 8.5 x 11 instead.
It seems to be such a simple request, but much time has been spent looking for a solution. Any help is appreciated.

Use desname to specify printer.Set the property of main section in report to customize page size.

  • There are hidden pages in the PDF form I have.  How can I see and print all without clicking on the

    I have hidden pages in the PDF form I'm using (but didn't create).  How can I see and print all the pages at once without clicking on the "next page" button.  In the initial view, there are four pages, but if I click the "next page" button, there are a total of 12 pages in this document.  This is three budget years, each year being 4 pages long.

    You're most likely dealing with a dynamic XFA form created in LiveCycle Designer. You can open it, click the button, and save it, and it will most likely be 12 pages when next opened, but it depends on how the form is set up. The ability to make edits to an XFA form in Acrobat is very limited, especially for dynamic forms, so things like flattening aren't possible.
    If it's not an XFA form, you'd still need to click the button at least once and save. To say for sure what's possible, I'd need to see the document. Can you post it somewhere?

  • How do i copy and print groups from my address book?

    How do I copy and print groups(with contact information) from address book? I want to copy a group of contacts in list form that ideally I can paste into Excel.

    I'm not sure exactly what you are asking.  If you are coming from pre-Mountain Lion, then Address Book has changed to Contacts.
    Open Contacts.
    Select an Account in the group list, if you want the contact in a specific group. If Groups aren't showing, you can display them from the View menu.
    Click the Add card button ( + ).
    Enter the information for the contact.
    If you need multiple entries for a particular field type, a new blank entry will show up below the one you are adding.
    If you need other fields, use the Card menu to Add a new field type.
    If you want to change the default fields available when you create a new card, choose Edit Template…
    If you have sent emails to someone and you want to get that address to add to a Contact, use the Previous Recipients command in the View menu in Mail.
    If you need to add a new Group, hover the cursor over the account name, and a + button will appear. Click it.

    Why do I sometimes receive email attachments in the body of the email and how can I download and print from there?

    To save attachments, a couple of options include: (1) control-click on attachment, select "Save Attachment...", (2)  Click on "Show Details" in the upper right corner of the message, which then gives you some attachment functions including "Save".

    How can I address and print an envelop from a letter created in Pages 09?

    You can copy & paste the address from the letter into a document formatted to envelope size. I prefer to use the EasyEnvelopes widget. If you have copied an address to the clipboard, it will automatically be added to the widget.
