How to tab across landscape page in textedit?

I want to tab all the way across the page in landscape orientation. But the tabs will only go about 2/3 of the way, then they wrap to the next line.
Is this possible?
Thanks,
Bruce

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
Note that you also have to...
1. show ruler (Format > Text > Show ruler)
2. select all of the text on the page (my first attempt only set tabs on the first line)
3. then you can set the tabs
Is there a way to set the position without the mouse? It's a bit hard for me to drag the mouse to an exact hundredth of an inch.
However, it looks like I won't need to do it again. After setting them, I created a new file and my new tabs are already there.
Thanks again. This really helped!

You can't. But you could add a text box and rotate it (select the box, click arrange, rotate).

How can tables across multiple pages be printed?

I've got DIAdem 9.0. I have a table on a report that has so much data it spans several pages. I can scroll through the tables with in DIAdem REPORT but I can only print one page at a time. Does anyone know how to print all the pages from script? Is there a way to print the page number like "Page 3 of 10". Thanks!

Hi DIAdemon,
Before issuing the PicPrint() command, you can set a couple of DIAdem variables in order to control what prints:
To print all sheets:
PrintRangeType = "AllPages"
Call PicPrint("WinPrint")
To print some sheets (for instance only sheets 2 to 4):
PrintRangeType = "PageEnums"
PrintFromPage = 2
PrintToPage = 4
Call PicPrint("WinPrint")
Also, you can insert text on each DIAdem-REPORT sheet that uses DIAdem variables to dynamically display page number information on each sheet:
Page @GraphSheetCurrNo@ of @GraphSheetCount@
This will display the "Page 3 of 10" syntax that you wanted. Note that if you insert a new DIAdem-REPORT sheet, you will have to click View >> Refresh to get the page number information updated
on all sheets.

Hello
I know that Pages is using its own algorithm to resize pages when it put several of them on a single sheet.
This is why I use this tip.
I draw a rectangle whose size is supposed to be the final one.
I give it a white background and a black border whose thickness is set to one point.
For the tests I just insert three page breaks so that the document is a four pages one.
I print it as is.
Doing that, I may measure the printed rectangle.
Of course, at first attempt it doesn't match the required size.
It's easy to compute the required adjustments.
When the correct factor is reached, it is easy to build the complete document so that it prints the correct size.
Doing that I never got odd results but maybe it's because I am a lucky guy.
Of course, disagreeing with one advice doesn't mean that I don't respect it.
I respect your opinion, _on other matters too_

Put a Landscape page in a Portrait format Document

Hi guys,
Any idea how come put a Landscape page in all Portrait format Document? Some tables needs to go on landscape format as is a scientific report and the author wanted this way.
Thanks for any clue,
Cheers,
Sebastiao

Depends on your version, and what you mean by a landscape page.
CS 4 allows you to rotate a spread view, but the page size and shape remain the same. This is what most people mean by a landscape page in a portrait doc, but you might really mean a page the same height, but wider, that needs to fold out -- common in technical work. For that you need to add a page or more to your spread (and don't forget that page also has a reverse, so add it to the corresponding opposite spread, too).
For earlier versions of ID you can rotate the text frame on the page where the table goes and tip your head, or you can make a separate document and combine it in a book, but ultimately you'll need to either rotate it back for printing or do the fold-out as above, so I'd stick with rotating the frame for just one or two tables.
Fold-out pages require special handling and a discussion with the printer.

Adding a Landscape page

If I have 2 pages that require portrait format how do I add a third page in landscape format (by the way the form is saved as a dynamic form)?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I've read all the blogs but so far I've had no luck working with an existing document that already has 2 Master pages, (1 portrait, 1 landscape). I am trying to replace an existing portrait page with a new landscape page. I've been able to append the new page at the end but it will not let me associate it with PageArea2 (the Landscape Master page). The Object-Pagination-Place fields are disabled.
How add a new landscape page?
Thanks very much.

How do I spread one image across 2 pages?

How do I spread one image across 2 pages?

You can't with a single image, but you can "fake" it. Duplicate the image & then line up the two halves. It's easier if you are viewing facing pages two-up.

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
thank you,
Asaf Privman.

You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at one of these extensions:

* New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

How do I get new pages in new tabs to automatically go the same setting as my home page? Google is my home page, and I want the opening in new tabs to default to Google also.

Whenever I open a new tab, I want the new page to open to the same setting as my Home Page (in my case, Google). Instead it takes me to Bing. Even my Home Page reverts to Bing after I've set it to Google.

The default New Tab in Firefox is a blank page and there is no built-in option to change that.
*CTRL+left-click the Home icon will open a new tab to your set home page.

How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??

How can I set home page for a new tab? how can i get firefox to open the home page every time i open a new tab in Windows vista home basic??
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

How to set multiple home pages, the option is gone (replaced my hard drive and had to reinstall firefox) This version seems to only offer tabs, not pages?

My old version of Firefox had the option for me to set multiple home pages. My hard drive recently failed and had to be replaced, so I had to install the newest version of Firefox. The only option I see when I go to tools, options, general is to set the one home page. (and maybe tabs) I would like to open several of the same pages every time I open my Firefox. Does anyone know how to get this back, or which version had this feature so I can downgrade to that particular version?
Also, I was wondering if there is a way to get the bookmarks I had on the old version back. I think they are lost forever, but if anyone knows, I would be thankful. I do still have the old hard drive, but the way it failed was actually when you tried to open any browser, the hard drive would go and blue screen, this is why the old hard drive had to be replaced. Thanks. :)

So you mean you want to open new windows with the same page when you open Firefox?
[[How to set the home page#w_set-more-than-one-website-as-your-home-page|Set more than one website as your home page]] should help if you want to open multiple pages when you open Firefox.
As for recovering your bookmarks, you can try to plug that hard drive into a working computer, and then read [[Recovering important data from an old profile]] to copy your bookmarks from it. However, if it is failing you may not be able to do that.

When clicking for a new tab, I used to to see previuos tabs history. But now it goes to an "I=play, yahoo bing search page. How do I delete this page or go back to the history page

when I click "new tab" the new page would be the search abr along with the :most used list. But now the "new tab" opens in a "I-Play", yahoo-bing search page. How do I get rid of the yahoo page and get back to the most viewed page????

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
You can look at this extension to set which page to open in a new tab:
*NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
You can open the about:config page via the location bar and do a search for bing via the Filter at the top of the about:config page. 
You can reset all bing related prefs that appear bold (user set) via the right-click context menu to their default values.

I am new to mac and am trying to understand how to do something i did in Word. In Word you can set up document so that you have 2 pages per 8.5 x 11 landscape page. Each page is treated as a separate page. Can this be done in word for mac 2008?

How do I globally change the font across all pages in a multi-page PDF document

I have a 500 page document. I suceeded in changing only the font on the first page using Acrobat Pro and selecting "Edit Text and Images", selecting "All" on the first page and changing the font. It worked perfectly. Now I want to apply that font change to the remaining 499 pages. Any ideas?

Sorry Bill, not how it works. You can select text across a page boundary using the normal multi-select tool for copying, but you cannot edit across a page boundary. If you try to activate the ETI tool from the Content Editing panel or use the context menu "Edit Text" item, Acrobat will trim the selection to the current page only.
The previous two responses are correct - you must either repeat the edit by hand on every page, or go back to the original document and make the changes there (which is the expected workflow for such a drastic alteration).
