Inserting a Single Page

Can I insert a single page into the middle of a pdf document. That is to say I have a 56 page document and I need to insert a new page at page 34 - is this possible? If so would you be kind enough to let me know how?
Thanks

Hi Dartmouth1,
If you are using Acrobat Pro XI that too be on windows machine then you need to click on Page Thumbnails option.
Then click on drop down option list and choose option Insert page. Hope fully this should help you.

When inserting a single page pdf into another pdf, some of the text disappears

Currently working on a fairly big pdf. Have a single pdf which opens up fine. What i am trying to do is insert this single page pdf into the larger document. When it is inserted, not all the characters are being displayed like b, v, u etc. If I highlight the areas that have the text missing and choose copy, and paste it into word, all the text is there. Its just not actually showing in the final pdf. What has got me, is that if I open the single page pdf by itself, it opens up fine. Parts of the text only disappear when it is inserted into the larger pdf document. Any thoughts as it has me stumped!!!

Does the Visio PDF look correct in Acrobat? You might try to save the VISIO file as an EMF file or other vector graphic and create a PDF from there. VISIO has had major problems in the past and that may be associated with your problem.
Just for the heck of it, have you tried the reverse insertion? Try inserting the longer PDF into the single page one and then move the page to where you want it with the pages view.
Excuse my mood, but I am real tempted at this time of the evening to simply say your error was in using VISIO. Like I said, sorry.

How do I insert a single page pdf into a much larger 1,000 page pdf so that it is inserted on every other page of the large document?

I essentially have one large pdf document (1,050 total pages) that consists of 525 individual 2-page letters. I have a second pdf document that is just 1 page, but needs to be inserted 525 times so that it is incorporated into each of the 525 individual 2-page letters, making them all 3 pages now.

You may need to either use JavaScript or an Acrobat Action or a combination of both items.

Problem with CS5 crashing when inserting or deleting page

I have a legacy file (educational textbook) that was created in CS2 and has been edited and updated over the past couple of years with no problems. The file is approximately 360 pages with around 30 illustrations, a ToC, and large index. When updating the material today, I went back to insert a page due to overflow text and InDesign crashed. This happens every time I try to insert or delete a single page. I can insert a single page on pages i through viii, but when I try to insert a page beginning at Sec2:1 InDesign crashes. I can open and close the file and edit it anywhere with no problems.
If I insert 2 pages at a time, it works fine and I can flow the text into the page. But, when I go to delete the extra page I don't need, it crashes. It doesn't seem to be specific to any particular master page in the file. I tried several times to export to an IDML file, reopen and save it to an InDesign file but the same problem occurs.
The same thing happens with the file on the same verson of InDesign that is on my laptop. This problem does not occur with other InDesign files that I have created in the past. I need some help. Thank you!

I think Steve was looking for a bug that affects new Macs, which we can rul out at this point.
I suspect some corrupt text of some sort, but that's just a guess. Ther first thing I'd do is make a copy of the file for backup, then start trying to find the problem.
You mentioned this was a CS2 file originally. What was the last version, and how much editing has beeen done in CS5? Do you have the old file and can you add pages in that version?
In the CS5 version, are you able to select half of the pages at a time in the Pages panel and use the Move Pages command to move them to a new file (you need to make the new file first)? In the new file, before you move the pages, rename Master Page A to something that you didn't use in the file that is giving you trouble so that it isn't applied to any of your pages when they are moved, and open the Paragraph Styles panel flyout menuand choose Load Styles. Load the [Basic Paragraph] style from the problem doc and replace the existing one, then you are ready to move the pages.
If you are able to move the pages, move half the pages into one file, and the other half into a second file. Save both files with new names. This is a divide and conquer search technique to see if we can isolate a problem page. With each half document, see if you are able to add or delete a page. Hopefully the answer will be yes for at least one half. If it's yes for both, move the pages from one of the new docs into the other to recombine them (you may have broken a text thread when moving the pages, so check for that at the point where the two were originally separated), save As with a new name and you should be good to go.
If only one half is working, repeat the exercise with the bad half, moving halves to two more new files. Continue to do this until you are down to a single page from the old file, then remove half the text (or illustrations) and try the test again. You should be able to isolate a problem very quickly this way -- about 8 steps to get a 360 page book to down to one page.
If NEITHER half doc works, it might be a corrupt style (and that may be the problem even if one of the half-docs is OK if that style is rarely used and doesn't get imported). When you move pages to a new doc, the styles will travel with them unless there are same-named styles already there. If you suspect a bad style, you should make a new blank doc, then define, not load, duplicate styles for all of the styles in the problem file, before moving the pages. This may be a lot of work, so an easier alternative might be to place your cursor in each story, then export that story to InDesign Tagged Text (If you ask over iin scripting, someone may have a script to export all the stories at once). You can then place the tagged text into a brand new file and see if that works.
Keep us posted.

How to create and insert muliple PDF pages to a single file

Greeting to everyone.
I use Acrobat 8 Standard to create PDF files, usually by PRINTING TO PDF from a CAD file(Vectorworks) or web pages on the net.
I know how to create single pages and I know how to combine them into a single PDF file by using the Document - Insert Pages command.
My question is: When creating a PDF file(e.g from my CAD program), can I print and insert instantly, rather than going through 2 steps.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

No. Future questions concerning Acrobat belongs in the Acrobat forum.

How can I make some pages in a PDF display in single-page view and others in two-page (facing) view?

Exactly as it says on the tin. I am looking to save a PDF magazine/book layout in such a way so that when opened, only the front and back covers open to the viewer in single-page mode, and the rest of the pages in two-page facing mode, without re-printing the in-between pages in booklet format and re-inserting them into a new PDF (with the front and back covers left separate and untouched, and included as single portrait-orientation pages). This is so that individual pages can still be printed (on a physical printer, not a "virtual" one like a PDF driver), as-is without having the page next to it included, or the printouts always requiring landscape orientation (resulting with two "pages" from the PDF showing up on one sheet of paper).
So when the PDF is opened, I want just the front and back cover to be auto-viewed by themselves, and the content (the "meat" of the document) viewed side-by-side, as though one were actually reading a "book" -- but without actually re-doing the content pages to be "fused" side-by-side. Thus creating the "illusion" that they are, in fact, in booklet form. Is this possible, to have different page-display settings for different pages/page ranges in a single PDF? If so, how is this done? If not, what would be my best course of action otherwise to achieve this "virtual" book layout, while still retaining the "physical" structure of the document and allowing individual pages to be printed by themselves rather than "fused" together?

The best you can do practicably is the 'two up with cover page' view mode. The first page will appear singly but not centered, and to get the last page to behave it would have to be a folio sheet.
It's theoretically possible to use JavaScript to reset the view mode as each page is changed, but it makes for a nightmare of usability (what if someone on a smaller display wants to use 'fit to width'? Not an option if JS keeps overruling it). Anything involving JS won't work on non-Adobe software or mobile devices.
Not a programmer by any means, so I won't be using JavaScript because I wouldn't know where to begin. I was thinking more in terms of an option I could adjust in the menus or dialogues.

How do I use the single page feed on my Canon MX340?

I am trying to figure out how to feed single pages into the Canon MX340 from the slot on the top. How to make this happen?

Hello segurry,
To feed documents into the automatic document feeder (ADF) of the printer, please follow the instructions below.
Loading Documents in the ADF
You can load documents to copy, fax, or scan in the ADF.
Note: To scan a document at optimum quality, load it on the Platen Glass.
Make sure that any original has been removed from the Platen Glass.
Load a document in the ADF.
Open the Document Tray.
Insert the document in the Document Tray (2) until you hear a beep sound.
Load the document WITH THE SIDE TO SCAN FACING UP in the Document Tray.
Note: When you set the alarm to be silent in Device user settings of Device settings, the alarm will not beep even if the document is inserted in the Document Tray.
Adjust the Document Guides (3) to match the width of the document.
Do not slide the Document Guides too hard. The document may not be fed properly.
Hope this helps!

Deleting a Single Page in Pages '09

I created a two-page text document in Pages '09 with headers/footers and Pages added a THIRD blank page (with header/footer) that I DO NOT WANT. When I attempt to delete a page, the ONLY option Pages gives me is to delete ALL THREE PAGES. Is the any way that just a SINGLE page can be deleted? Thanks so much for letting me know because this is SO FRUSTRATING!!!

Pages doesn't "see" a page as you & I do. Pages sees logical pages, separated by section breaks, rather than physical pages. You can see this by showing thumbnails, View > Show Page Thumbnails, & then clicking on a page thumbnail. The yellow border around groups of pages shows the logical page. You need to insert section breaks before & after the physical pages to separate them. Then, with the cursor in the body of page three, use the section tab of the layout inspector & uncheck user previous headers & footers.

How to use a single page for create and update mode.

Hi,
I need to develop a single page to be used for both create and update modes.
I am going to use a variable MODE
and i will set this in the emp summary page.
Based on the button clicked by the user i have to render the JSF page.
For tis if the user selects a perticular and cliks on update thn i will pass the empno to the next.
so there in the next i will appy a ViewCreiteria on my View Obj to fetch only that row so that only that emp will be displayed ion update mode.
This is working fione for me.
So now the issue is
when the user clicks on CreatEmp button.
i need to enable my VO for insert operations.
for this i wrote the code like this in the beforePhase event
FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ValueBinding valBinding = ctx.getApplication().createValueBinding("#{data}");
BindingContext bContext = (BindingContext) valBinding.getValue(ctx);
DCDataControl dcControl = bContext.findDataControl("DataControl");
Application app = ctx.getApplication();
ApplicationModule am = (ApplicationModule) dcControl.getDataProvider();
System.out.println("After Appmodule initiation");
// get the VO reference and initiate the query
System.out.println("Before Page VO initiation");
PrismDmPageSectionViewImpl vo = (ViewImpl)am.findViewObject("View");
//ViewRowImpl row = (ViewRowImpl) vo.createRow();
/* TO CREATE AN EMPTY ROW*/
Row row=vo.createRow();
System.out.println("New Row is created");
//vo.createKey(row);
vo.insertRow(row);
vo.setCurrentRow(row);
By doing this a new empty page is rendered.
But when i fill up the values and click on ok.. i am getting the error like this..
JBO-27023: Failed to validate all rows in a transaction.
JBO-27027: Missing mandatory attributes for a row with key null of type View3
JBO-27014: Attribute Id in View3 is required
JBO-27014: Attribute PageeId in View3 is required
Please point me out where i am missing.
Thanks

Hi,
In my opinion you are over complicating things.
This is what I do for using the sme page as both create and update without all this code.
1) Create a browse page containing a an adf table with a select one component bound to your view object.
2) Create an additional edit page containing only an edit form containing fields of your view object that your users must enter in order to add or edit rows.
3) Link the pages in the JSF diagram with an "edit" navigation case from browse to edit page and a "return" navigation case from edit to browse (make sure that redirect option is NOT set on both cases)
4) Remove the submit button from the edit page and add two application module bindings for the commit and rollback operations as command buttons in the form footer facet. Make sure that both buttons has an action of return and that their disabled property is set to false. You will probably change their labels to ok and cancel respectively.
5) Drop a create action for your view object from the data control palette inside your page as a command button and set the action property to edit also.
3) Set the action property of the view button to edit
This should basically work without any code from your part. -- at least it does so for me -- if you like to make it a bit more funcy you may add am action listener inside your buttons and set a requeScope variable for example #{requestScope.editing} to true or false depending on the button clicked. Then add a title to your page with a value like #{requestScope.editing == true ? 'Editing record' : 'Adding a new record'}..
Hope that helps.

Combining Contents of 2 PDFs into a single page PDF

I need to combine elements of two different PDFs into one, single page PDF.
One PDF is Template of sorts with headers to be edited, the other PDF is a non-ocr scan that includes text and images.
I've found no way to copy and paste on a single page b.t two PDFs. I've tried pasting into an inserted page and then dragging it up or cutting and pasting within the document (with the intention of deleting the unneeded second page) with no luck.
This seems like it should be such a no brainer. Open 1st PDF, Open 2nd PDF, make selection Ctrl C, go to 1st PDF, place cursor where desired, Ctrl V.   But it doesn't work at all in an intuitive way like any other document program where you can cut and paste with ease b/t documents and even b/t programs.
So instead, I've copied the part of the image PDF I want into the original word doc of the template, then created a PDF from that. However, when I try to tell Acrobat to make the entire document OCR, it tells me it can’t b/c it contains renderable text (the header information, I’m assuming). If I run the OCR on a PDF containing just the image, it does it no problem.
What is the best way to bring these two documents together in way that results in a single page, completely searchable PDF?

Unfortunately, another $700 software purchase is not in the cards and I can’t wrap my mind around why it should be necessary. It seems so nonsensical to me that Acrobat has all these advanced functions for editing, combining, making portfolios etc., yet can not perform the simple task of cutting and pasting between two documents.
While Adobe support was putting me on hold, I doodled up some generic sample documents that I could upload here to illustrate the problem. Hopefully, someone can play with these and give me a workable solution.
The first PDF, Original Acme Clip, represents the file that is provided to me by our clipping service. They cut the item out of a magazine, put the customized info into their standard template in whatever word processing program they use, printed it out, pasted the magazine clip to that page and then scanned the hard copy to PDF-as an image only PDF, it is not optimized for optical character recognition and is not searchable.
The second PDF, Final Acme PDF, represents the file that our workflow eventually ends up as-a PDF containing only the info we want, formatted as we want, in which both the headers and clip content are searchable. To get there currently, we print out the Original ACME Clip, type the relevant info into the headers of a Word template that includes our logo and standard footer, print out the Word template page, manually cut out the scanned image from the PDF, and paste it onto the template paper. The resulting paper is scanned into the Final Acme PDF and OCR is run on the whole thing to make it all searchable.
What we’d like to do is skip all the printing, and manual cutting and pasting. Any and all suggestions for work in Acrobat 9 Pro to do this would be gratefully appreciated!

HELP !!! can i change page-settings for a single page ??

hi all,
i´ve got a problem with my document settings:
can i change the settings (especially the documentborders) for a single page, without changing the settings for the whole other document pages ?
for example: page 1 --> border left 2cm , right 1cm
page 2 --> border left 4cm , right 1cm
PLEASE HELP ME !!!

Hello mamamague
All you need to do is select Insert->Section Break. A new page will be started. To adjust the margins you need to select the Layout Inspector (second icon on the top of the inspector) and adjust the margins in there. The Document Inspector still makes global changes and the layout ones are relative to them. It helps to turn Show Layout and Show Invisibles on so you can see what's happening to the document format as you play with these settings.
Good luck!

How to change page template for a single page?

I create a new document based on the Pages "Reports > Business Report".
Now the first page is formatted as a "Cover" page with a larger top margin.
Via "Format > Advanced > Manage Pages..." I see there are what I assume are the "Page Templates":
- Cover
- Table of Contents
- Chapter Page
- Text Page
- Appendix
My question: How can I change the template for a single page in my document? E.g. I don't want Page #1 to be formatted as "Cover". I'd like it to be a "Text Page".
Any hints?

Just delete the Cover section and insert a Text Page.
Click on:
+Toolbar > View > Page Thumbnails+
Click on the Cover thumbnail, it will be outlined in yellow, hit delete.
It may start off with certain defaults but you do not have to accept them.

How do I insert a single-fold in the layout?

Good Afternoon -
I've been tinkering with Pages now for a while and (embarrassingly) cannot figure out how to insert a format layout for a single-fold. I am trying to create a funeral program with a simple 8.5X11 single-fold layout.
Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated.
Thank you!
Lindsay

Here's the second post, with the 'roll your own' instructions.
Open a new Page layout document based on the Blank landscape Canvas (Page Layout) template.
Click on the inspector button and choose the Document inspector (first button).
Set all four margins to 0.5"
Leave the Header and Footer checkboxes unchecked.
In the Toolbar, click on the Text Box tool to insert a text box. Click outside the box to deactivate it, then click on the box to Select it. (You'll see square white handles at each corner and in the middle of each side of the box.)
In the Inspector, click the Metrics button (ruler).
Set the box width to 4.5" and height to 7.5".
Set both X and Y positions to 0.5".
With the box still selected, press command-D to duplicate it.
The new box will be selected.
In the Metrics inspector, set the X position to 6.0" and the Y position to 0.5"
You will now have a single page with two text boxes, a half inch margin on the outside edges, and a one inch gutter between the two boxes.
in the Pages list to the left of the main window, click in the icon for the first (and only) page to select it, then press command-D to duplicate it.
Save the file
You now have a simple template for the outside and inside pages of your single fold booklet.
The page order for the booklet is:
4 | 1 (back, front)
2 | 3 (inside left, inside right).
Regards,
Barry

Need script to place multiple single page pdfs in ID pages

Does anyone know of a script that would place a whole folder full of single page pdf files into an indesign document one per page, alphabetically by pdf file name, and ideally add new pages as needed. The last part is optional, as the ID document could already have the required number of pages, all using the same master page with the the picture frame already in place.
In my current project, the pdfs are all the same size as the ID document page size.
This would be along the lines of the scripts that place multipage pdfs, but for single page ones. I have tried first creating a multipage pdf by inserting a folder full of single page pdfs at the end of an initial pdf. Acrobat 8 pro does this very well indeed, but selects the pages from the source folder in random order. I need them in alphabetical order.
Thanks for any insight,
Al

For this project I could equally well use a script that would place or re link to a new pdf in a single page ID document, print device independent postscript with some sort of unique or sequential filename, and repeat the process for a whole folder of source pdf files. No new pages need to be added, and the new pdf could replace the prior one.
What I am after is a device independent ps file for these pdf files. The ones produced by batch processing from Acrobat 8 Pro do not offer enough control, as in that method I would need *only* the black separation.
Thanks,
Al

Creating a pdf document with both single pages and spreads

Hi, i'm not sure if this is possible, but basically i'd like to set up a document which allows me view the first three pages as single sheets and the remainder of the document as a booklet. The reason for this is I'm sending a cover letter, CV and then a booklet via email to apply for a job, and the booklet i have created has graphics which run accross the spread. I was hoping to lay the document as such:
1. cover letter
2. CV
3. Booklet front cover
4-5. booklet spread
6-7. booklet spread
8-9. booklet spread
I'm not too familiar with how to set this up (or if this is possible), could anyone point me in the right direction?

@Dave Merchant - The pages are true spreads, I've had a go at attempting to define the page type by the master but i can't seem to get it to split the document so that the first three pages remain single. I had a go at trying to create an entire new document with the pages in in order, but not sure how to insert single pages and spreads combined within the document.
@Test Screen Name - Do you know how i would be able to create such a document within indesign? i've had a look for some answers in the documentation but havent come accross anything yet (im on CS5). I had a go at combining the documents as the booklet and the single pages, but when i change the view options in acrobat to two page the first pages becomes a cover and the second and third are next to each other.
