Is it possible to create a Print Button?

Is it possible to place a print button on an iWeb page so folks when viewing it online can print the entire contents of the page. The page(s)are quite long so one must scroll down to view it in its entirety, but when attenpting to print from the browser, only the first part of the long page will print. Maybe I answered my own question ... does this mean that iWeb pages should not be set longer that normal letter size?
Thanks
John

You can also copy and paste the text into TextEdit and print that to a PDF. Then, create a button that says "print" and hyperlink that to the PDF. That way, anyone wanting a printout would have a nicely formatted document and you can include contact information in the document as well.
Most sites I go to just have "print" go to a plain "black text on white background" version of the same text that the user then uses command-p (control-p on PC's) to actually initiate the print, so that'd work as well.

  • Creating a print button to print a page from another document - is this possible?

    Hello,
    My company is designing an interactive pdf with indesign with some great navigation on a side-bar. We've made the dimensions of the navigation pages larger than 8.5 x 11. We are constructing a pdf portfolio that contains a printable version of this document and this interactive version. Would it be possible to have a print button in the interactive document that calls up the corresponding page in the printable document and send it to the printer?

    Flash Catalyst does not directly support printing. You are going to have to add that functionality via Flash Builder and writing ActionScripting. I have not worked with the printing capabilities in Flex, so there is not a lot I can offer past this in terms of advice.I would suggest browsing the Flex forums for some guidance on how to assemble your state for the printer.

  • How Can I Create a Print Button on a PDF Using Acrobat Pro That Will Also Work on iOS?

    I created a Print Button on a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat Pro on my Mac.  The Print button works perfectly on different browsers on my Mac and on Windows (running under Parallels Desktop) as well.
    When I open the document on my iPad the Print button doesn't even appear.  I am guessing that this is a Flash issue but it may be more related to the fact the the action for the button is to access the Print menu item, which doesn't exist under iOS.
    Is there any way to create a Print button using Acrobat Pro that will work on a Mac and Windows but also on iOS?

    In order to initiate printing by clicking a button, the button has to have either an "execute menu item" type action or use the "print" JavaScript method. As you guessed, the former won't work since there are no menu items to execute, and the latter can only work if the particular PDF viewer you're using supports it. I'm not aware of any that do on iOS.
    The button doesn't appear because you're probably opening it in the default PDF viewer, which doesn't support forms at all. If you were to open the form in Adobe Reader, you'd see the button but it wouldn't work.

  • Create a print button to print one frame

    I am trying to create a print button on the last frame that will allow the user to print just that frame.  I've tried using the printjob object, but all that I can get to happen is print a blank sheet of paper.  Here is the code that I have so far:
    function printScore(event:MouseEvent):void
        var printJob:PrintJob = new PrintJob();
        var sprite:Sprite = new Sprite();
        printJob.start();
        printJob.addPage(sprite);
        printJob.send();
    btn_print.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, printScore);
    If I right-click and choose print while viewing the .swf file, it prints correctly.  What am I missing in order to make my last frame print through my print button?

  • How do I create a print button to print a specific range of the document.

    How do I create a print button to print a specific range of the document.  I've found JavaScript to print a specific page, but a range or even multiple ranges.  Form is created in Adobe 9 Pro.  Any help would be truly appreciated! 

    Sure, I'll give it a test.  Its just that I have a 128 page form that not all of it needs to be printed.
    Currently,  I have an index page where I want to set up a print button queues per form, however there are several form scattered throughout the document that make up a specific section, but it does not require printing the entire document.  Does that make sense?
    I did find this JavaScript during my reseach, but have not be able to get it to work.
    var pp = event.target.getPrintParams() ;
    pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.full;
    pp.printRange=[[1, 1], [3, 4]];
    event.target.print(pp);

  • Creating a print button to call a Report Query and pass filters

    If i use the REPORT QUERY option in APEX 4 to create an statement that is the same one used in an interactive report, can I create a link or button to the REPORT QUERY and pass all the session and filter information from the interactive report to the report query?
    This way I can have the interactive report screen where the user can do all sorts of modifications and such and then pass those to the REPORT QUERY so I can call that from a custom link or button.
    You may ask "why does he need another print button?"
    Answer: I am using a view that has some embedded HTML tags to format the output really nicely. The HTML download version created by the interactive reports works beautifully. The customer also wants a PDF version (meh) which does not render the HTML tags and actually echos them as part of the text. I found that I can create another view that uses the CHR function to create all the breaks and such I was doing with HTML and these do render properly in PDF. So, I figured just have 2 reports: 1 Interactive and 1 using a REPORT QUERY. I just want to call the REPORT QUERY version but use the Interactive Search form to set all the parameters.
    Or, am I over thinking this and there is an easier method?
    I made a previous post where I showed how I got the APEX printing to work and i hoped that helped someone out - fixing this issue would put the whole thing to rest.
    Thanks

    Is BI Publisher desktop (MS Word add-in) a possibility? This would allow you to use MS Word to create your output template (RTF) that would result in a properly formatted PDF. Of course, you'd have to right an updated version of the query without HTML embedded. Just thinking outside of the box.

  • How do I create a print button for use in Interactive PDF?

    I have a document created in InDesign CS4 which I will be converting into an interactive PDF (which has various links added on a master page so they appear on every page), one of which I would like to be a "Print" button.
    I know how to do this in Acrobat Pro, but I don't want to have to create a button in Acrobat and then copy/paste it onto all pages in my document. Surely there must be a way to create a button of this type in InDesign CS4. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Sorry, no. Print button functionality must be added in Acrobat.

  • Create Form Print Button

    Acrobat 10.1.2
    Mac Snow Leopard
    I am not particularly experienced with Acrobat fillable forms but I've created 6 or 7 that work pretty well. My question is how do I create a Print (or Email) button on the form so that when a user filling in the form using Reader can print the form and /or email it to someone? Do I have to use Java Script to do this? Anyone have an example?
    Thanks
    John

    To print you can set up a button to execute the "File > Print" menu item or the doc.print JavaScript method. The latter is documented here: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.511.html
    There are quite a number of options, but at its simplest you can just do:
    // Show Print dialog
    print();
    If you want to email the entire filled-in document, you have to Reader-enable the document, assuming it needs to work with Reader. This should be the last thing you do before distributing it. Reader users will then be able to save and manually attach it to an email as they can with other types of files. You can also set up a button to initiate the email, either using a "Submit a Form" action or the doc.submitForm JavaScript method, or the doc.mailDoc JavaScript method, or by using the Distribute method in Acrobat. The latter will cause a Submit button to appear in the purple forms document message bar that appears at the top of the page display area.

    i have following questions, if possible plz. help me.
    1) is it possible to create round shape i.e circular
    shapes button using java program.
    Yes - GUI Components paint themselves through the invocation of their paint(Graphics) method. Create a subclass of JButton and override the method to paint a circle.
    public void paint(Graphics g) {
      //work out where you want to put the circle, x_pos, y_pos etc
      g.drawArc(x_pos, y_pos, width, height, 0, 360);
    }or some such. Note that since Java 1.2, the object that gets passed in to this method is actually a Graphics2D Object (subclass of Graphics). This provides extra methods.

  • Create a print button in webtemplate used for integrated planning - BI 7.0

    Heelo Guys,
    Can you please let me know how to add a print button in the web template which has a input query  and which is used for integrated planning. The user want to print the report.I haven't worked in web template and thought of asking you if there is any button or standard sap functionality I can use for printing the report . Thanks in advance for your help. We are in BI 7.0.
    Thanks
    Senthil

    Hello
    What you are experiencing is not clear for me, but in general you have to install the BI ABAP + BI java to have planning modeler working. Ensure that BI Diagnostics (note 937697) and also ensure that you have setup your system according notes
    919850 and  947376.
    I hope this helps.

  • Create a print button

    Hi experts,
    Is it possible to add a button to a form and print a file (a pdf) with the default printer when the button is clicked?
    (the path and name of the file is stored in a UDF in the same window)
    Best Regards
    Johan

    Hi Johan,
    There is already a PrintPDF button in B1 tool bar that prints the current document in a PDF file in the default printer (based on the corresponding report layout).
    There is no possibility from SDK to send a pdf file to the printer.
    B1 is using the default windows printer defined in the machine, so from .NET you could take that information and print directly with .NET commands.
    Hope it helps,
    Trinidad.

  • How to create 2 print buttons on a sql report ?

    hello,
    i work on apex 4 and database 11GR2, i configure bipublisher for advanced printing.
    On a sql report i want to have an excel Button and a Pdf button with redirect URL.
    I don't know how to specify in the URL the format output.
    I see in the help
    "use the output format derived from item option and include the item name and value in your Print URL."
    but i look for an example of URL.
    Best regards
    Jean marc

    So, you have to specify a hidden item which contains the value, then specify in print attributes the item name (mine is P5000_TYPE)
    Then you would have button redirect URLs of:
    javascript:redirect('f?p=&APP_ID.:&APP_PAGE_ID.:&SESSION.:FLOW_XMLP_OUTPUT_R1483125430108678:::P5000_TYPE:PDF') ;and
    javascript:redirect('f?p=&APP_ID.:&APP_PAGE_ID.:&SESSION.:FLOW_XMLP_OUTPUT_R1483125430108678:::P5000_TYPE:XLS')
    to print in pdf and xls respectively.
