Is it possible to add a border to artboards when printing with "ignore artboards" checked?

I am a sign designer and very often I set up files with up to 30 artboards. Usually the signs are white with text, and I have to create a rectangle for each artboard and stroke it to show the border when I print it out to proof it to my boss to show the size of the artboard (scaled down, of course). I know if you print each artboard individually you can print trim marks, but I don't want to print 30 pages when I can print them all on one page. Any suggestions?

Unfortunately know but I do have a thumb nail and storyboard feature request in for Illustrator so it can be used for this purpose and for an ideas toolfor video and website design.
Sadly I have to date never received a contact from Adobe about this. The idea for this would give you the choice of Gray, Back or white background with a black outline. I would not give the option myself for custom settings on this one but it would work fine for your purposes.
As far as your problem why don't you visit the scripting forum for Illustrator, it might be possible and or challenging enough for some one to wrtie one.

  • Is it possible to add a second monitor via mac mini with iMac

    Hi
    is it possible to add a second monitor via mac mini with iMac
    or is there another solution?
    all i want to know is if i can run a second monitor or link a mac mini for more speed like i heard you can with the G5 Towers.

    The iMac will allow you to connect a second monitor but that monitor will show the same thing as the iMac's built-in screen.
    You can network a Mac mini and iMac via Ethernet or Firewire.
    Software load sharing like Xgrid can allow you to share work between the Macs.

  • Is it possible to add a border to something highlighted?

    I'm trying to be able to add a border around a text selection without having to draw a box.
    What would be easiest is if I could use the text selection tool, or highlighter tool, and have a border automatically selected. Anyone have any ideas?

    It's possible to convert the highlights to a square annotation with a
    border and no fill color, using a script.

  • Is it possible to add name to subject line when submitting a pdf form

    Hi,
    I have created a form with Live Cycle and added a button which submittingthe form as PDF. I was wondering is it possible to add staff name to the subject line just after Leave Request as seen in the picture below?
    Regards

    It is pretty easy to accomplish your requirement using scripts on a regular button rather than email submit button.
    Look at this amazing sample created by Paul which explains a number of ways to submit form data through email.

  • Is it possible to add an HP all in one printer to my vetwork via UBS on an Airport Extreme so that the scanner and print functions are available over the network?

    Im very new to this "networking thing" so your patience is welcome. I have managed to get the Time capsual AE up and running and thanks to bonjour I have a printer via USB working. However, its an all in one machine and I can not work out how to get the scanner to work over the network - or even if its possible. Is this possible?

    No, you cannot scan over the network, unless the printer has network capability.. in which case the printer must connect via ethernet or wireless not USB.
    All USB printers are designed as local printers not network.

  • Is it possible to add UNC paths to the favorites menu with a batch script?

    Hi all,
    at present the office I work in uses mapped drives, this works well for people in our office but one people talk with the other offices things go south as they have no idea what a t drives is. So I would like to move my users away from the mapped drive and
    add the folder locations to the favorites menu.
    Short of making the shortcuts and asking each person to copy them in to the folder location there must be a way to write a script to do this? I have looked at using mklink but that failed. 
    This is the code I used 
    mklink /d %userprofile%\Favorites\tech \\brisfp01\Tech 
    Any other ideas? 
    Thanks

    it is called an "Internet Shortcut"
    $Shell = New-Object -ComObject WScript.Shell
    $shortcut = $Shell.CreateShortcut($FullPath)
    $shortcut.TargetPath = $Url
    $shortcut.Save()
    Look in Gallery for more examples.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • Is it possible to add a thumbnail to an image file with core graphics ?

    Hi,
    I'm writing a small image processing application.
    For image reading and writing I'm using core graphics (CGImageSourceRef / CGImageDestinationRef).
    Several image formats like jpeg or tiff provide the option to store a thumbnail in the file.
    To get this thumbnail I'm using
    CGImageSourceCreateThumbnailAtIndex( ... )
    which works fine so far. If there is no thumbnail in the image it is created
    with this function. Now, in the case there was no thumbnail in the image I would like to store
    the created thumbnail in the image file when I write it to the disk. So far I failed to find a function in core graphics
    to perform this task. In the CGImageDestinationRef documention it is only mentioned, that thumbnails
    are written into the output file, but not how to add these.
    I fear I'm overseeing something very trivial ...

    I believe that a Smart Object will solve your problem.
    place your original image in a new file as a smart object and do the same for the reflection (made by Transforming, reducing the opacity and introducing a mild horizontal motion blur) on its own layer, then:
    by double clicking on the smart object in the layers panel and returning to the original image, any change you make in the original and save, will automatically update the upright image and its reflection.
    Nice one Norm.  Five Kudos points to you.

  • Is it possible to add an option to pay online OR mail in a check?

    While my form is functioning correctly, it leads people to think they can ONLY pay online- I want to make it so they can submit their information without paying online if they so choose.  Right now there is only a "proceed to checkout" paypal button, which is fine, I just want it to also have a button that says "submit and mail check later"
    Does anyone know how to do that?
    Thanks,

  • Eliminate Border on Slide When Printed

    Hello~ I'm trying to figure out how to eliminate the thin box / border that appears on all my slides when I print them. I purposely created a blank Master where the background is set to "None", there are no objects layered or objects that are set as placeholders. Also, I made sure that there is not a "stroke" in the Graphics section of the Inspector, and no borders are turned on. Any and all help will be welcome and appreciated. Thank you!

    I'm using Leopard, so I don't know if this will be different for you or not: In the print dialog window, there should be a "Keynote" option in the drop-down menu, which will show you the options where "Add borders around slides" is checked by default. Unfortunately, it always defaults to that and I am constantly un-checking it to create my PDF handouts where in the "Layout" category I choose to have 6 slides per page. I hope that helps.
    Good luck!

  • Javascript to add "Specify Open Preference" dialog when linking with "Go to a page view"

    Hi, all!
    We're needing to file a brief with the Court.  Within our .pdf brief, we link to exhibits and transcripts.
    For the exhibits, we hyperlink using "open a file," because going to the first page of the exhibit is fine.  Here, after selecting our file, we're given the "Specify Open Preference" dialog, where you can either (a) go with the user's setting, (b) mandate opening the link in the same window or (c) mandate opening the link in a new window.  This is perfect -- we always want a new window.
    However, for the transcripts, we need it to go to a particular page, so we use "Go to a page view."  This works fine, except that it ALWAYS and ONLY goes with the user preference.  We want it to ALWAYS and ONLY open in a new window, so the Court can close the destination and be in the same place in the Source doc.  I realize they can set their preference or use "return to previous view," but we can't really communicate that.
    Is there a javascript -- or a plug-in we can purchase -- or anything -- that will somehow allow us to fix "Go to a page view" to open in a new window?
    Thank you so much for your thoughts and help!
    --ak

    After creating a "Go to page view" type link you can go back end edit it and specify how you want the other document to open:
    I realize this is a bit tedious, but that's how it's done.

    I am using 9.3.1 version of hyperion planning were Web Analysis report is not coming with the border/logo/heading while printing with the option "print all object", Only the data grid is coming in the print. If I use "print screen" it is coming with border/logo/heading but it gives a screenshot of the report, that won't cater out need.
    So please suggest us with a resolution to have border, logo and heading, while using Print all object.
    Thanks with regards....

  • Get "client-error-not-possible" when printing to Adobe pdf 8.0

    Problem suddenly appeared in Adobe pdf 7.0 when I upgraded to the MacBook Pro from an older ibook. I thought that there was a compatibility problem with 10.5. However, now I have done a new install of Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.0 and the problem still exists.
    The "printer" seems to add normally, but as soon as I print, the printer stops. If I resume it and the job in the queue, the error message appears.
    There must be some setting that I'm missing.

    Hello lisagig and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    I would be inclined to run a repair disk permissions first and if that doesn't help then I would reset your printing system. Note that this will remove all of your current printer queues so if you have a number of network printers in the list it would be handy to make a note of their network queue, which you will see via the Print & Fax > Options & Supplies > General pane shown as URL.
    To add the PDF printer queue back, you will need to make the Advanced icon appear in the Add Printer pane. To do this, open Print & Fax and click to Add a printer. Control Click on the current toolbar (next to More Printers will be fine) and select Customize Toolbar. Drag the Advanced icon to the toolbar. Now click the Advanced icon. After a few seconds this pane will become active so you can select the Adobe PDF 8.0 (pdf) in the Type column. Every other column will autofill so leave them as they are except for the Print Using menu, where you will have to open, click 'Select a driver to use' and then type Adobe in the search window. This should show the 'Adobe PDF 3016.102'. Select this and click Add to complete. Now try printing with this new Adobe printer to see if the error has stopped.

  • Is it possible to add a text box to an image in Aperture?

    is it possible to add a text box/caption to an image in Aperture? (I do NOT have photoshop)

    Do you want to write it directly onto the image? Then install and use the free BorderFX plug-in for Aperture. It will let you write text annotations directly onto the image or onto a border.
