Is it possible to create my own custom document layout size in "Pages '09", or am I stuck with the 8.5 X 11 templates?
The answer is that you can set a custom x-y coordinate space or select a canned x-y coordinate space from the ISO A series or any of the industry and US national series.
This fact is not based on the application software, but on your own use of a digital graphic device that draws patterns of picture elements. Your display and your printer are digital graphic devices.
With a digital graphic device, the application, the OS and the driver don't communicate in ASCII control codes for carriage return and so forth.
The application, the OS and the driver communicate in x-y coordinate spaces within which you set other coordinates for typography frames and photography frames.
This is what you see in Apple Pages layout mode as well as in the layout mode of Microsoft Word, and in any version of Aldus PageMaker since 1985, QuarkXPress since 1987 and so on and so forth.
When you are done and have exported your design to disk as Adobe PDF, the x-y coordinate space you set for the design space can be seen as the Media Box in Apple Preview > View > PDF Display > Media Box.
If you set an x-y coordinate space that is larger than the x-y coordinate space, then it is device-independent. Apple Preview will by default scale the size down to the dimensions of your digital graphic display, will scale the resolution down in memory, will convert the scalable type to smooth bitmap type in memory, and will convert other colour spaces to the ICC colour space of your digital graphic device. Another digital graphic device with an x-y coordinate space that has another dimension can draw your design as is, draw scaled up, draw scaled down, or draw as is in tiles. This is how books and periodicals have been proofed and then printed for a quarter century.
Should be taught in school, though.

  • Create custom web-part page with OOTB page layout using CSOM (Javascript)

    Hi,
    I need to create a custom webpart page with a OOTB page layout (eg. Header 3 column footer) using JSOM.
    I found a link to do this using CSOM: http://spdevlab.com/2013/03/28/creating-wiki-web-part-and-publishing-pages-via-csom-in-sharepoint-2010/
    But here i have to copy the page template from 15 hive and store it in a resource file and I am also getting error as "The request message is too big" and to fix this I need to run a powershell script but I need the code to run in SharePoint online
    also.
    Isn't there a simpler piece of code in which I can enter the name of the page layout(OOTB/Custom) while creating a page in JSOM as we have in SSOM?
    Thanks for the help

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to create a custom web part page layout template.
    There are some articles about how to create the custom web part page layout template, you can refer to them.

    I can't foud document or example about it
    I'm looking forward to yearing from you soon, many thanks in advice

    I've found it's worthwhile spending time fiddling and adjusting Lightroom's templates and saving to Custom Pages but I haven't found a way of removing a custom page layout once I've finished using it or tweaked it some more. Can you say how to remove one, please, johnbeardy? I can put them in and out of Favourites but the Custom Pages list just gets too long.

  • Edit button in uitableview (possible to create custom buttons)

    Hi
    Instead of Edit button in the UiTableView, we can create a custom buttons. Basically once we clicked the edit button it shows the option (delete button) to delete the corresponding row.
    Like that is it possible to create a custom button? Clicked on custom button, instead of delete button can we show other buttons (ok/cancel), rather than delete we can do any other action?
    Thanks

    You can add a button using custom javascript. but this could potentially have performance issues. please test the performance and functionality if you implement a lot javascript

  • Still possible to create  custom web items in WAD 7.0?

    Hi,
    in WAD 3.5 I was able to create custom web items and use them in the WAD after making the correct entries in the RSRRENDERER tables. Today I tried to do the same in an 7.0 environment, however, I didn't find my web item in the left hand side in the WAD. Is it still possible to create you own web items in 7.0?
    Kind regards,

  • Is it possible to create custom bookshelves in a dedicated reader?

    Hi. I just got a Pandigital 7" Novel eReader. It's connected to Barnes & Noble and it has an Adobe eBooks app too. In the B&N library, I am able to create custom bookshelves to more easily find my books. I figured out how to transfer my ADE books from my computer to the Adobe app on my eReader, but unlike the ADE on my computer, I can't figure out how to create custom libraries/bookshelves on the eReader. The libraries from my computer did not transfer along with my books. It seems my only choices are to view the books by date of installment or alphabetized by title. Since I've transferred over a hundred books so far, scrolling through to find the one I want, every single time, is getting frustrating. To make it even more complicated, when I'm in the title view, the title of some of the books is just a series of random letters and numbers, like SW000000931.epub. I think I read on another thread this issue is impossible to fix, but if I could make my own bookshelves in the eReader, I could just name the bookshelf the title of the book.
    Am I missing something obvious, or is there no way to create custom bookshelves/libraries for ADE books in a dedicated reader?
    Thank you so much for any advice.

  • Possibility on creating custom API's in OCCI

    Hi,
    In OCCI I'm planning to create custom API's i.e. I will pass any kind of query and it should execute and update the database.
    For instance,
    string query = "insert into stu(a,b) values(:1,:2)";
    It will update stu table with data from C++ object suppose 'X'.
    This kind of approach will work or it will not. I'm half way through on insert queries but encountering issues when hard coded and only partial data has to be updated in the table.
    Before continuing further could you please give me commnets on my approach?.
    Thanks
    Vishnu

    Yes, you can. You can insert values for a few columns as you indicated. What issues are you seeing?
