Inserting multi-page PDF file in Appleworks text document.

When inserting a multi-page PDF document in an Appleworks text file, it only inserts the first page.
How do I insert all the pages at once?
Ron

As far as I know you must break you PDF in single pages documents.
Then you will be able to drag and drop all of them in a single process but it will be time consuming to move them so that they are correctly located in the layout;
Inserting them one by one will be more efficient.

  • Getting Page Count for a Multi-Page PDF file using Illustrator script?

    Does anyone know how to get the page count of a multi page PDF file?  I know you can then open each page using the PDFFileOptions (pagetoopen).  But I need to know up front how many pages there are to loop thru to open each page and process each page.
    Any Ideas?

    This script i did for photoshop:
    OK so lets do it working on WIN and MAC without any shell script.
    This solution is not the best but its working.
    I used Try catch to solve it.
    Only issue is that you should at least somehow know how many pages you expect in pdf.. this mean if you are working with books or flyers...
    Then set the maxPagesCount to that number.
    I am working with pdfs with max 20pages.. so i start open the 20 then 19 then 18 and when i am success i know the amount of pages.
    Its not the quicker way but its usable.
    var maxPagesCount = 20;
    var actPagesCount = maxPagesCount;
    var opts1 = new PDFOpenOptions();
    opts1.usePageNumber = true;
    opts1.antiAlias = true;
    opts1.bitsPerChannel = BitsPerChannelType.EIGHT;
    opts1.resolution = 10; //it will load faster the test page
    opts1.suppressWarnings = true;
    opts1.cropPage = CropToType.MEDIABOX;
    myFunction = function () {
      try { 
          app.displayDialogs = DialogModes.NO;
          var fileList = openDialog();
          for (i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++) {
            actPagesCount = maxPagesCount;
            getPagesCount(fileList[i],maxPagesCount);
            alert(actPagesCount);
      } catch (exception) { 
        alert(exception);

  • Create a single tall image from a multi-page pdf file

    I would like to take a multi-pake pdf file, and have all of the pages "appended" from top to bottom edge to create a single tall image. I am a teacher, and I currently do this by hand, I am then able to annotate the entire page and croll down an entire document inside of Photoshop.
    Here is an example: I have a pdf with 4 pages. Currently I open the pdf in PS, I end up with 4 images; I adjust the vertical canvas size of one of the images to be 4 times it's original size, then one-by-one I copy the contents of each image to that new tall image and move that layer vertically below the previous one. So the result is say a 1024x6400 pixel image.
    I would like to be able to just open the pdf with a script and get this all done in one step.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks again c.pfaffenbichler. I had most of it worked out in my own way before you got back to me, but I wasn't able to get the final naming part down.
    Like I said, I am a math teacher, and I use photoshop as my whiteboard, and draw with a graphics tablet. So I can print to pdf from any program, now I can import any document into photoshop basically to write on it. So this is wonderful. I have never seen another teacher use PS as a whiteboard in class in this way, so I am most likely the only person in my county or state that would need such a script.
    After I got everything worked out, I added some things to the script. Some of my colleagues will use my files as a whiteboard if I send it to them as a tall single page pdf that they can scroll down and write over; so they don't need photoshop. So I have scripted in the saving of that pdf as well. Here are my changes; most of what I changed is in the section commented MY WORK.

  • Mail will NOT display a multi-page pdf file in the body.

    I want to send an email with a multi-page PDF attached that is displayed in the email- so that readers don't even have to click on the pdf to open it. Can I do that? I can do a single page, and I did determine that if I save all the pages of the document as single pds and then attach those, that works, but is there a way to display a multi-page pdf? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I do not use pages - there are several possible solutions to your situation - in pages you should be able to do a send pdf to iPhoto and then in iPhoto you can create an e-mail with smaller (and harder to read) images- you may be able to produce smaller (lower quality) PDFs in pages (don't know), you can change e-mail servers - use a different one it you have multiple accounts or get a free gmail account or other new account that will handle your needs

  • I can't edit multi page PDF file in Illustrator at once.

    I made 30-page PDF file in Illustrator last week.
    Yesterday my co-woker eited and sent to me.
    but i can't open 30-pages all in once
    instead of this window pops up and only 1 page of all open it.
    How do I open all the page and edit it once without any script?
    Last week I Could open it without asking.

    Keep a backup of the .ai file. Your coworker should not be making edits to pdfs, only commenting tools. Tell your coworker not to do that again, unless they know what they are doing (eg: are creating from scripts). If they persist, or this is your boss, lock the PDF with security protection.
    This script may help you. Keep in mind the popular pdf preset smallest file size converts to RGB, so your color will change and l;ayers possibly flattentin if Illustrator editing capabilites is lost.

  • How to show a multi-page PDF file on iweb?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm building a website where I am showing a catalog design I did for my previous company. It was designed using Indesign and exported into PDF file. Then I saved the first page as JPEG file, inserted the JPEG file into iweb, and then enabled the JPEG image as a link to the PDF file of the catalog. I thought by this way I can let future employers to download the PDF file and view my design work. However I figured if I put my website link on places like Monster.com, anybody can see it, download it, and just steal or print out my work. I realized this is not a right way to do since my previous company should have the right of the design work. Any suggestions? Is there anyway I can let viewers only view the PDF file on the web browser without being able to download it? How should I do to display the whole catalog in a neat wey using iweb? Thank you very much in advance!!

    James I know you meant no harm, and I have to say if
    it wasn't for you I wouldn't be this far in the game.
    So if I have javascript on my website and your
    company has javascript disabled, my site wouldn't be
    very interesting to you on your work computer? What
    is the benefit of disabling javascript?
    Thanks. I'm glad I didn't cause any bad feelings.
    My company is very paranoid when it comes to IT. I guess it's the common PC world where you are once bitten, twice shy. We just upgraded all of computers to Windows 2000 !!! haha.
    I think there must be (or must have been at one time) some vulnerability associated with javascripts on websites and that's why it's disabled. Crazy, isn't it?

  • Unable to mark the box 'create Multi-page PDF from page tiles' when saving to pdf-file

    I am running Illustrator CS3 on a Mac OSX 10.5.8
    I want to print a very large illustrator-file (1000 mm x 900 mm) across mutliple pages of A4-paper (5 x 5 sheets of A4-paper) by saving the file as a multi-page pdf file.
    I first followed the instructions provided here:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/create-mutli-page-pdf-illustrator.html
    When I then tried to save the file: -> File -> Save as -> 'choose .pdf from drop-down menu'
    I get to this menu:
    I am unable to mark the box that says: 'Create multi-page pdf from page tiles'. I have made a red arrow pointing to the box I want to mark.
    I have tried changing the other drop-down menus inside this menu, to see if the box I want to mark could become available, but without any luck.
    I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I would be grateful if anyone could help me set my settings right to allow me to create such a multi-page pdf-file.
    Thanks in advance for your help

    Your ps file should be good, the problem likely resides elswehere. Maybe in your acrobat install, distillers settings. what error did distiller give?
    Mine ran good and got a multi page document, here is a screenshot to help you troubleshoot.
    On mac go to system preferences / print and fax / and change your default printer if you have another option. I know sounds like this should not help, but there are problems like Illustrator for example not making .pdfs if you do not have a printer chosen or an old or corrupt .ppd assigned.

  • Place multi-page pdf and resize pages automatically

    I have an A4 sized multi-page pdf file and I wanted to place the pages of the pdf into a US letter sized Indesign document. I planned to use the placemultipagepdf.jsx script that comes with indesign, to do this. When I place the pages though, they come in as A4 and I have to adjust the size manually within each image box. Is there a way to have them place but then resize automatically to the US letter sized height?

  • Is it possible to automatically convert a website into a multi-page pdf?

    I have a weblog that has reached the end of it's life, so the site is coming down. Before I do, however, I need to create a permanent record and a single multi-page pdf file would be perfect.

    What version of Acrobat do you have? In Acrobat 9 you'd select:
    File > Create PDF > From Web Page
    or
    Advanced > Web Capture > Create PDF From/Append Web Page
    There are various options that affect the result, including the number of levels to capture, page layout, how multimedia is handled, etc. Acrobat 11 is more advanced and will likely give the best results.

  • Creating Multi-Page PDF from a Layerd Illustrator file (script)

    Often times when designing a logo I create different versions and variable options on layers. This can result in several layers in one Illustrator file. Is there an easy way or an existing script that will allow me to (with one click) create a multi-page PDF consisting of all the layers within my .ai file? The current method is turning on each layer, performing a save-as (PDF), then turning off said layer and turning on the next layer and repeating the task and so-on-and-so-forth, etc … It becomes tedious and quite often I save over the previous version, forgetting to re-name it or forget to perform a save on a certain layer. Can anyone help with some advice? I have never written my own script before but am not opposed to trying, where do I begin?
    Any help is appreciated.

    You don't say what OS you are using and which scripting language you are thinking of doing this in…
    This is a sample that may get you started done in JavaScript so it's platform independent with the exception of my 'mac style' file paths.
    If your on a PC it may just be a typo to set to C drive or whatever you call them things…
    If you are on the mac OS then it should just dump a load of PDF's on your desktop.
    You say about a multi-page PDF but don't think Illustrator can do this unless its been added with multi-artboards in CS4?
    Others would have to let you know that…

    Safari 7.0.6, using Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10, isn't rendering pdf files in the Print Preview screen.  Additionally, only a single, blank page prints for a multi-page pdf document.  Any ideas?

    Figured it out.  It had nothing to do with the software levels of Safari or Adobe Acrobat.  Here's the fix:
    Open Finder/Applications
    Search "Internet Plug-Ins"
    Move any Adobe plug-ins to the trash
    Quit Safari
    Launch Safari
    Your pdf document should now render in Print Preview and print properly.
