I can't configure the custom page Size Dimensions!!!

We want to print form with special dimensions.
We did the following steps:
1. Select print (adobe pdf), properties, presentations, advanced options, PostScript Custom Page Size Definition.
2. The range to define don't appear in the unit Milimeter.
I am using Acrobat Standar XI. (11.0.03) and there aren't more updates.
Thanks for your help.

Gracias,
Al crear un PDF a traves de la impresora virtual Adobe PDF, se utiliza un normalizador, Distiller que incluyen Acrobat Std. y Pro.
Los ajustes de Distiller (que convierten un archivo intermedio PostScript [PS] a PDF) controlan el tamaño de cada página, pero no modifican los márgenes del archivo original o del PS generado.
En Windows se pueden generar archivos [PS] a traves de escoger una impresora PS, filmadora, o Adobe PDF, o marcando la casilla de Imprimir archivo.
Igualmente, como has mostrado en tus captura, al i mprimir se pueden configurar tamaños de página de salida, lo que si he comprobado como tú ha hecho, (utilizando Excel) es que no utiliza en esta situación los offsets, desplazamientos, de la parte superior o izquierdo aplicados, en el archivo [PS] generado, no sé si es una limitación de configuración de la impresión en el sistema operativo, Windows, o está diseñado así.
Posibles alternativas:
En las aplicaciones Office, al menos, se pueden configurar los márgenes al inicio o antes de imprimir en la vista previa
En Acrobat Pro se pueden seleccionar los objetos y moverlos dentro de la página, también existen plug-ins para automatizarlo.
Creo que la solución de ajustar la distancia al lado izquierdo debe estar disponible en ese software que genera las páginas.

In an upright and landscape folio Can i have multiple (custom) page sizes?

In an upright and landscape folio Can i have multiple (custom) page sizes?
i.e if 99% of pages are 768x1024 each with a landscape version when you rotate, can the folio also contain bespoke long pages i.e 768 x 2048.....??
It appears not...

*FACE PALM* YES! that works, of course it does, simple when you know how ;-) ...... Thank you Alastair i was missing the obvious answer

HELP!! I am having BIG PROBLEMS getting the Custom Page Sizes to work!!

I am having a MAJOR challenge working with the Custom Page Size feature in Pages '09. My mom is working on a primer music book for publication, where the page size (for the printer) MUST BE 9" X 12"!! For some reason even though I have set the custom page size to 9" x 12", The document does not appear to have the proper proportions, (i.e. the ration of the width to height IS NOT EQUAL TO THAT OF A 9" X 12" DOCUMENT!!)
HELP!! PLEASE!!
Also, for some reason my Vertical Ruler has COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED!! My Horizontal Ruler (on top) is still there but there is no sign of the vertical one which is CRITICAL for aligning the of the content for publication!!
I took an annotated screenshot of what the document that is +*SUPPOSEDLY 9" x 12".*+ But there is +*NO WAY THAT IT IS ACTUALLY 9"12!!*+
I have also taken some screenshots of a few other Inspector Panels and other things that might help SOMEBODY to figure out what the problem is!

Hi kmamusic
Welcome to the forum.
To show your vertical ruler:
+Menu > Pages > Preferences > Rulers > check Enable vertical ruler in word processing documents+
You are right the page does look slightly too high.
The one thing you did not give us was a screen snap of the *Custom Page* you set up in *Page Setup…*
This is what would dictate the actual page size.

Can no longer create custom page size for printing to PDF?

When printing from FrameMaker to PDF in Windows, I used to be able to create a custom page size by clicking on the Add button that appeared to the right of the Adobe PDF Page Size window, in the Adobe PDF Document Properties dialog box. With Frame 9, that button no longer appears; in fact, the whole dialog box is cut off just inside the edge of the entry windows. Do I need to set something? Thanks for any help you can offer. - Cindy Shaler

Cindy,
I am not sure to what dialog boxes you are referring.
In the PDF Setup dialog box (in FrameMaker's Print dialog or Save as PDF dialog), the Settings tab displays two fields to change the width and height of the paper. I tried entering odd values, and the resulting PDF had the entered size. I see no Add button nor is the dialog box cut off.
Maybe I am not looking at the correct boxes.

How can I configure the save page mode (to save DEFAULT WITH OR WITHOUT images and other dependencies in a folder)?

I like it that I can save webpages with or without dependencies in a separated folder. And its implementation in Firefox (e.g. it remembers how I saved something before, and that way becomes the default) can also be good sometimes. But usually it is not.
Usually I want to save pages as HTML-only. Sometimes, but only sometimes I have to save a page as a whole (I don't know the name of the feature). But after I save something with dependencies, I often forget that, and don't care about this option. Firefox, however, doesn't forget it, and saves thousands of unimportant images, until I notice it and switch it off again.
This is not good.
I tried Google Chrome, which simply don't remember how I saves something before, and always select the complete page option for default. It is exactly the opposite of the perfect solution (in my opinion). The best would be if the browser would save everything as HTML only, if I don't change it. Or it would be even better if I could configure it manually (turn this remembering feature on/off).
This is not a beginner's problem, so it would be good if only a config option solved this. I imagine that already exists a config option for this, but I could not find it. I found only the "browser.download.save_converter_index" option, which depends on how I used it last time.
Is there a config option for this? Or should I report this in the Firefox brainstorm page?
Thank you for your time
D. J. S.

That choice is remembered in the Integer pref <b>browser.download.save_converter_index</b>
0: Web Page, complete (default)
1: Web Page, HTML only
2: Text files
If you want to reset that choice to HTML only on every start of Firefox then you can use this line in the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/user.js_file user.js]
<pre><nowiki>user_pref("browser.download.save_converter_index", 1);
</nowiki></pre>

How can I change the default page size for the Adobe PDF Printer?

Hello All,
I have cases where I need to switch the default paper size from 8.5x11 to 11x17 via api for the Adobe PDF Printer and have not been able to find how this can be accomplished.
I am using C# .Net and would appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance,
Bob

There is no Acrobat API for this, but so far as I know there doesn't need to be. The user can go change this from the Printers Control panel as needed. The Adobe PDF printer has some differences from regular printer drivers, but this isn't one of them.

Can I change the default page size for SYSBUILD?

When I start SYSBUILD it always has a default page size of Letter set, is there any way to change this as most of the blocks I wish to print are to be printed on A3 paper?
Many thanks
Tim

Hi Tim,
Unfortunately there is no option to change the default print settings for SystemBuild. You must manually select the A3 paper size under File>>Page Setup.
Thanks for the suggestion though, I will pass that on to R&D as a product suggestion for a future release.

Page size printing problems with custom page size I created

I have created a custom page size (very small) for printing an advertise I had to print, and now after that operation all the pages I ask to print to any printer are automatically printed in that setup, and sometimes even if I change to A4 manually, the page changes but the borders of the page still remain the old one (result i can not print). How can I cancel the custom page size I created, so that my printers restart to print automatically in A4?
thank you very much

Custom Page Sizes - How to change from centimeters to Inches?

Hello,
I'm working on some panoramic prints to an Epson R2400 and I need to set up a custom paper size for printing to roll paper. When I select Custom Page Sizes from the Page Setup dropdown, all my measurements are forced into centimeters. Even if I try and specify it to be in inches when I type in the values, I get an error saying "Invalid Number" because of the " (in mark designation).
And because the input box only allows two decimal places, I can't get accurate inches-to-centimeter conversions because the sizes I need are 3+ decimals when converted to centimeters.
Searching on the web I've come across many pages with info on the Custom Page Sizes dialog box and the images show the values being set in inches, but I've found nowhere that says where you specify where I can change this default measurement?
If anyone could help me, it'd be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Kristin.

Answering my own questions.
Because I'm Canadian, in Preferences -> International -> Formats I needed to change "Measurement Units" to "US" instead of "Metric".

Set custom page size for printing

I want to set a custom page size for printing some PDF three and four-page musical scores to roll paper on an Epson 1290 using Adobe Reader 9.3.4 on Ubuntu 10.04. The printer properties in the print dialog has a media size option, and one of the choices is "custom", but having chosen "custom", the dialog does not allow me to add the actual page size to the lpr printer command. I can see that when I choose "custom", the lpr command is
lpr -P Stylus-Photo-1290 -o PageSize=Custom etc
but what I need for a three page output, for example, is
lpr -P Stylus-Photo-1290 -o PageSize=Custom.297x630mm etc
and I can't see how to add the actual custom paper size. If I Ok the media size choice dialog with it just set to PageSize=Custom, I can see from the output preview in the print dialog that the actual page size that has been chosen is letter. The online Adobe doc for Reader 9 printing (http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Reader/9.0/content.html#heading2.3) says "For documents that are larger than the standard page size, go to File > Page Setup. Create a custom page size before you print your document". The problem with that is that there is no "Page Setup" option on the File menu in the Unix version of Adobe Reader, only a "Print" option, which is where I already am.
If I open the PDFs in Evince, it allows me to add the custom page sizes I want, but as Evince doesn't have the option to print multiple pages per sheet I can't use it either...

Yes, it used to work, and the resize zoom bar used to work too (now its grayed out). I don't know if this is a "who's to blame for it" thing, but its not getting fixed and its pretty bad that no one seems to care enough even to respond. I found my own solution by opening it in Gimp. Just right click and select open with other ...Gimp and it will import into it. In the Gimp Print dialog, you have a scaling percentage in the "Page Setup" tab, and size settings in the "Image settings" plus loads of other stuff including multiple copies.

Custom Page Size Printing Error Since Updating to Mavericks

Can anyone help me please...
iMac 10.9.4, with Adobe CS4 suite and Adobe CC Suite installed.
I have recently updated to Mavericks and since the update my custom page sizes no longer print at 100%, custom sizes all get scaled down (i presume to fit sheet) and leave me unable to print jobs out at correct size.
The custom page sizes work for builtin apps such as Preview, but my CS4 suite no longer work correctly. I have also tried using Acrobat CC and that gives me the same issues too.
I have googled the problem but have not found a solution and it seems i am not alone either.
Please help as this is rendering my ability output as useless.
All the best

This problem is from all Adobe CC & CS4 products i use: indesign, illustrator, photoshop, and acrobat.
My main staple work process is using pdf exported from indesign then printed using acrobat.

Custom Page Size Issues

I just got a new computer (10.5.8) with the Adobe CS4 Suite and I'm having troubles printing custom page sizes from Illustrator to my Epson Stylus Photo 1280 (can handle oversized prints).
When I was using my old system (AI 10) I could specify a custom page (say, 12"x12") and it would set the print margins according to my printer as well as print out exactly as it looked in the Print Dialog box. No problems.
With CS4, I am unable to select "Custom" under the Media section in the Print Dialog box, and I can only get to my 12x12 page by selecting "Page Setup" and choosing my custom under the Paper Size drop down. When I build my custom pages, it gives me the option to put in "user defined" margins or to choose my printer. When I choose my printer, it sets all the margins to .00" instead of knowing the Epson's defaults like it used to. Regardless of what I type in, my prints are getting cut off even when they look centered and perfectly fine in the Print Dialog box.
I'm at a loss. I recently updated my printer driver just to make sure it wasn't that, but I'm still having problems with the margins and the custom page sizes.
I did have PowerRIP X when I was using my old programs, but I thought that was an issue that was resolved since 10.2. Is anyone familiar with these issues? Do I need to buy PowerRIP X again? I sure hope not (it's pricey!)
Please help.

I would copy and paste your entrie post and e-mail it to Epson.com/support/, adobe.com/support/, and apple.com/support/; there should be an easy answer to your problem. That said, I wonder if the RIP would be the answer. It shouldn't be. From what I hear, Epson drivers are pretty robust. Don't be surprised if they tell you to get a new printer. I mean, come on, how many years do you expect to get outa that thing? Chuckle, chuckle.

Custom page size - Serious Frustration

Acrobat is used to setup alot of our work for output. When creating custom page sizes for different jobs, there is no order in the pull down menu for the custom page sizes.
How can I set Acrobat Pro or MacOS X to display the custom page sizes in a numerical order ??
I have tried under both MacOS 10.3.9 and 10.4.2 using both Acrobat Pro 6 and 7. The result is the same. The list of page sizes might be something like this when selecting the pull down menu:
200x410
186x250
350x475
215x275
....etc.
Currently I have ~100 different custom page sizes for different impositions, the only way to work it is a. to search for the right size or b. try to remember where in the list the required custom size is.
There is logical no order to the custom page size listing. Not even deleting existing sizes and recreating in the required order works. Interestingly, when creating a new size the existing sizes appear in numerical order but not when selecting from the pull down menu.
Please help.

G5 2.0 x2, 2.5GB Ram, 2x160GB Mac OS X (10.3.9) Acrobat 6 Pro (6.0.4)

I've discovered that this is a SYSTEM issue, NOT an Adobe issue. The custom page setups are also out of any order in "Mail", "TextEdit", "InDesign" etc. etc. The other apps that I use typically have their own paper size interfaces not requiring to use the default apple one. (Eg. Quark / InDesign).
To prove this point I deleted the custom paper settings in Acrobat so that just the default sizes existed and then went into TextEdit and recreated some custom paper sizes using the Page Setup interface. Again, created custom paper sizes DO NOT list in either numerical or chronological order.
The apple system file which controls this is called "com.apple.print.custompapers.plist"
I found this entry on the macosxhints forum:
http://forums.macosxhints.com/showthread.php?t=23681
2 other users noting frustration with the same problem, but it doesn't offer any solution
Is anyone familiar with hacking ".plist" files? Maybe there is way to edit the file to adjust it to a logical order.

Creating a custom page size in Access 2014

In an previous version of Access 2003 I created a report with a custom page size of 5"x4". Now I am using Access 2013 and I no longer can run that report because of the custom page size. How do I add the custom page size to the
new version of Access?

Hi,
Your required could be done via VBA coding. We cannot custom page size directly in Access 2013.
Please see the sample code with following links:
