InDesign CS6 print number of copies issue

Hello!
I have a document that I needed 25 copies of, so I set the # of copies to 25 and off it went. No issue. However, now when I go to a different doc and I print, the # of copies stayed at 25 when I only needed 1. I have to remember to change the # of copies every time I go to print. I was wondering, if there is a preference or setting within the print options for InDesign to return each doc back to 1 copy instead of keeping the previous # of copies?
Thanks!

Eugene,
Oh, ok. That's a bummer. Oh, well, lol. Thanks anyway!

InDesign CS6 license number being rejected as "invalid"?

Why is my new InDesign CS6 license number being rejected as "invalid" although it is the one that came with the disc and it is assigned to me on Adobe's license website? I have a Mac.

Contact serial number and licensing support. We can't do anything about that.

How to check the InDesign cs6 serial number on my office iMac? I am no the one who download it.

Hi,
How to check the InDesign cs6 serial number on my office iMac? I am no the one who download it.
My InDesign cs6 keeps crashing, so my boss ask me to reinstall back. But the problem is, how do I check the serial number? Someone else has already installed it, and we cant track who.
Please help.
Regards,
Cita

Not very good office/employee management... but if you DID know who, and you had his/her Adobe ID, you could go to https://www.adobe.com/account.html for a list of activated programs

Moving this discussion to the InDesign forum. Reneeatwork I would strongly recommend that you also inquire with whatever support is available for OpenRIP as well.

Indesign CS6 Printing Issues

Having looked at the forums and found Adobe support less than helpful I am hopping that the comunite will be able to help me out on these frustrating issues.
We are having a number of issues while trying to print from InDesign CS6 to our OKI C830 printer
Our setup:
OS: Windows 8 64bit
InDesign CS6 Version: 8.0.1
Printer drivers: PS: 1.2.0.0 & PLC: 1.0.7.0/1.1.7
Printer: Oki C830 /256mb RAM / V1.16
Issues while printing from InDesign:
Printing multiple pages causes an error - undefined offending command stack error
After printing the first page successfully we get the error above.
I implemented the fix outlined in the following link: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2878922#2878922Changed the print option from Binary to ASCII – this helped in so much that we could then print one or two pages as needed.
Booklet printing – When trying to print a booklet it seems that the spread is not understood by the printer Try to print a booklet from ID 6 the pages are printed at random onto a single A4/3 sheet of paper.
As a work around we are fourced to create the document in ID CS6 and then expoort it to ID CS4 for printing.
Also as a side note I have tried printing to our old HP printers and they work fine. Also this issue was present on Windows 7x32 as well.
Thanks in advance for any help provided.
Cheers,
Matthew

The issues you are having can be caused by driver conflicts on the Operating system. If windows * installed the drivers automatically, it may be the wrong drivers. If they were installed from the disc, they may be outdated for Windows 8.
Please take the following steps.
1. If printer is connected by usb, disconnect the usb cable from the computer. If printer is connected on network, turn printer off.
2. Click start then click "Devices and Printers".
3. Right click on printer icon and click "Remove Device"
4. After icon is gone, single left click on Microsoft Document writer and then click Print server Properties at top of page.
5. Click on the drivers tab at the top of that window. Select anything that says "Oki" and select remove. Then select remove driver and driver package.
The driver package may not remove but it's ok as long as the driver is successfully removed.
6. Go to okidata.com and click on "Support" at top of page. In the grey area, select download a driver.
7. Next to select technology, click the dropdown window and select multifunctional product.
8. Another dropdown window will appear. Select the MC860MFP.
9. You will see three boxes. The center one will be titled "Find a Driver". Select Windows 7 X64 edition.
10. Select English MC860nMFP Series 64 Bit PS Driver for Windows (This will be the fifth option down.)
11. In the Driver Download Info box to the right, click the blu underlined file titled MC860Win7x64PS_ENU130.exe
12. Follow the installation instructions.

Adobe Reader X cannot respond to printer properties number of copies issue

Hi to all!
I have an issue using Adobe Reader X 10.0.1, 10.1.0, 10.1.2, when select File > Print > Page Handling: Copies = 1, click Printer Properties > Page Setup, specify eg. Copies : 5, it print 1 copy only instead of 5 on Windows platform.
Happen to a number of printers, eg. HP, Epson, Xerox, Canon, Brother printer, etc.
For some reason, Adobe Reader X cannot respond to the No. of copies specified in the printer properties.
Anyone have any solutions or workarounds to solve this issue besides specifying Adobe Reader X : File>Print>Page Handling: 5 copies?
Is there any website, forum, supporting documents, with regards to above scenario?
Please kindly advice, thank you in advance!

Hi LoriAUC,
Sorry for the late response!
The users had a habit of going into the printer properties to specify other printer options eg. 2-sided printing, manual feed printing, heavy paper, etc... besides the number of copies inside the printer properties as well. Therefore, they prefer to do all the various changes in the printer properties instead of changing it at the Adobe Reader dialog.
The same method were applied by all the users in Adobe Reader 9.4.7 and there were perfectly no issue at all! All the network printers (23 different brands and models in the network) responded to the printer properties "number of copies" accordingly.
It seems that Adobe Reader X dialog Page Handling: No of copies, cannot synchronise and recognise the "No of copies" specified in the printer properties. This symptom was tested and found to be the same behaviour for different printer manufacturers. Wonder if there is a bug with Adobe Reader X as this issue did not occur for Adobe Reader 8 and 9 versions. The users were using Reader 8 and 9 versions before and there were no complaints until it was eventually all upgraded to Reader X, starting from 10.0.1, 10.1.0 and now 10.1.2.
What do you think could be the cause?

The printer cannot support this many copies.
Number of copies will be set to printer maximum of 1.

Bill... do not misunderstand my words as your views are not my intentions. Take into account, there is a difference between asking the OP, "Have you checked the Print Drivers", and or, "If so, what did you learn?"; rather than telling the OP what the issue is before all facts are gathered, then becoming defensive or insulted.
Example:
I am cooking. I taste the food and say, "Something doesn't taste right. You say, "You didn't add salt". I respond, "I did, it's not salt, it must be something else". Instead of asking first if I added salt, or offering another suggestion, you are insulted and or become defensive. Case in point.
I hope this cleared up your unjustified comment.
Back on subject:
I posted the screen-shot on the fly and first time using this forum and its UI. When it is clicked on, it expands (as you saw). After it expands. Change the "Zoom Level" on your screen to find the correct resolution. Hint - It tells no more than the words in my original post.
Thanks for your help. I'm going to sleep before the sun comes up. Have a happy Sunday.

Indesign CS6 printer settings reverting to default

Hi
We have a problem which has started recently for some students when printing from Indesign CS6. Most of them have print presets which they created months ago for printing to the default printer using secure print, A3, heavyweight paper, bypass tray etc. They were working fine, but now, when they print a document using that preset it just prints on standard paper and normal (not secure) print.
I checked their print presets and in the setup for the printer within the print preset the settings have changed to the default settings. If I delete the preset and create another one any changes I make in the setup / preferences for that printer revert back as soon as I click 'Ok'. A work around I have found is that when I click 'setup' if I click on any other printer, then click back to the correct (default) printer, then click preferences and make the changes they stick and do not change back to the default settings.
This issue happens without using print presets as well, If you choose file / print and then setup, and you do not click on any other printer and then back again to the correct printer before clicking 'preferences' any changes you make will revert to default as soon as you click 'Ok'
It only seems to be affecting Indesign.
The printer is a Xerox Docucenter C6680, using the PCL 6 driver on a print server. We are also running Papercut.
Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? I have tried trashing the Indesign prefs but this does not seem to help
Cheers
Murray

THere appears to be a Postscript diver for this printer. Have you tried that?

Hi,
The HP Deskjet 845c is actually no longer supported on Mac OS X since version 10.6:

Adobe InDesign CS6 serial number invalid

I am installing Adobe InDesign CS6 and I am getting a serial number invald message for number - <Removed by Moderator>. This is for order 14558604 purchased from Insight our third party software provider.

Hi Jeff:
Why doesn’t Adobe have a protected site for this type of support. How am I supposed to know that this is a public forum. Adobe needs to provide a better support system. I am just trying to get the software running for my users.
Have a good day - Dave

Unable to print number of copies on label printer

Hi Everyone,
I am able to print smartform any number of copies on standard printer.
But when I change from standard printer name to Label printer name and execute the smartform with number of copies ( greater than 1 ).
For label printer I am able to print only one copy, irrespective of number of copies specified. However I can able to number of copies specified for standard printer.
Can anyone help me what could be the reason? Is that any settings should be done for label printer ?
Thanks.

The problem might be a corrupt preference. Does this problem occur with all applications? If not, which application?

InDesign CS6 from CS3 plug-in issue?

Our InDesign CS3 files have the SBIndexPro plug-in that was required to generate an accurate index in InDesign CS3, which InDesign CS6 doesn't recognize because it's a third-party plug-in (and CS6 doesn't have it or require it). So if we open CS3 files in CS6, we get an error message that the SBIndexPro plugin is missing and book functions (exporting book to PDF, packaging the book, updating page numbering, generating TOC, generating an index) are all disabled because of it.
The work-around we've found from forums online is to open the files in InDesign CS3, export each file to an INX (InDesign Interchange) file, open the files in CS6 and fix elements in the master pages (running headers shifted and have to be moved back into place), relink any missing images, save as a CS6 InDesign file.
Is there any simpler way we can get our files updated from InDesign CS3 to CS6 without this plug-in tripping us up? We can see how to disable the plug-in in InDesign CS3 but the files still say they're missing the plug-in when opened in InDesign CS6.
A prompt response and any help is appreciated!

You could open it in CS6 and export it to IDML but besides that, you've
covered the only two ways I know.

Printing number of copies problem

Hello,
I have a problem printing a smartform. In the printing dialog If I choose for example 3 copies, it only prints 1. No matter what I choose it always prints one copy only. I would like to print the 5 copys in the same spool order. For example If I saves the file in pdf format, I would like to have only one pdf file with 5 copies in the same file.
Is this possible?
The client says it's an error...
Best regards,
Mario

well this is possible, if the driver program is coded accordingly.
SAP standard driver programs normally offer that functionality. Often you can find following line of coding in those programs:
Do nast-anzal times.
"print form
enddo.

InDesign CS6 (8.0) URL Hyperlink Issue

When creating a hyperlink to a URL with a "?" or "&" InDesign converts these to "%3F" or "%26" which breaks the link. Is there a workaround so my links will work?

I don't want to sound diplomatic but honestly I have no idea when the fix will be rolled out for this bug.
I know that engineering team is working on it and the bug is under review.
The workaround for now suggested by them over the bug is :-
""The current workaround for the same could be to use the Panel to enter the URL and not the Hyperlink Dialog.That is if we write the URL in the URL field available in the Panel and hit return to apply the URL this problem does not occur.This problem only occurs if we Open the Hyperlink Dialog to apply the URL ""
Would appreciate if you bear a bit longer.

Opacity issue--InDesign CS6

Hello, I have InDesign CS6, and I have an issue with the opacity... When trying to apply opacity to a simple shape, the placed image behind it also shows the opacity I'm applying to the shape, as if they are linked or grouped... Why is this happening? Never happened before in the previous versions I've used. I appreciate if anyone can give me a light on this issue. Thanks! ~Gaby

Hello Peter,
Thanks a lot for your help.
I have solved the issue; the problem was that I was using a grayscale image instead of cmyk. For some reason when I was applying the opacity to the cmyk form, it was also doing it in the image. So I went back to the image and converted it to cmyk. I have used InDesign for years and this is the first time this happens to me. I don't know if it is a new feature in CS6 or I just didn't notice before.
