Location of printing templates

I just moved to a new PC with better performance. I copied all LR files under User(I think) but I lost all my printing templates. How can I restore my printing templates? I am running Vista Ultimate.

The door to the user's Library is now hidden but it is easy to open. In Finder, hold down the Option key while clicking on the Go menu & your users Library will appear about halfway down the list. Then go to Application Support > IWork > Numbers > templates > My Templates to find & delete the unwanted template.

Print Templates print preview window closes unexpectly when printing document

This is a cross posting from Internet Explorer Web Development after a suggestion that this forum would be a better location. See
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/ie/en-US/351e1245-b606-4467-9f3c-1c72f9cdf9ea/print-templates-print-preview-window-closes-unexpectly-when-printing-document?forum=iewebdevelopment.
I have raised an issue through Connect for this:
https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/feedback/details/1134168/ie9-to-ie11-print-templates-print-preview-window-closes-unexpectly-when-printing-document, but I would like some more visibility of the issue as my customers thought my application was closing when
they printed a document. I also don't know if an issue in Connect gets any priority support via MSDN, but this forum does.
This looks to me like a problem in the IE Print Templates startDoc API call, but if there is a more appropriate forum to raise this issue in please let me know.
In the application where I use print templates, the window closing is not in it self a problem because the Javascript that is calling startDoc also closes the Print Preview window when the print is finished.
The fact that the application looses focus and can be hidden by the windows of other applications when the Print Preview window is closed by startDoc is the issue noticed by our customers, so I need a fix preferably, or a work around at a pinch.
Details of the issue reproduced below.
When using IE Print Templates, the startDoc function is causing the print preview window to close. This behaviour started with IE9, and is still present with IE11.
When an application is using print templates (see
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa753279(v=vs.85).aspx) for print functionality, this has the effect of causing the application to become hidden by any other application window once printing from the print preview window has started. It is
actually this behaviour that started me looking at this issue as the users thought the hosting application had closed.
Print Templates are not accessible by using IE as a web browser, but only when using the WebBrowser Control to embed IE in an application. The reference for this feature is available from this url:https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa753279(v=vs.85).aspx
and a sample Microsoft application that demonstrates the use of Print Templates can be used to demonstrate the problem (required for the reproduction steps). The application is available via this article and searching for "download spiffy".
Steps to reproduce the problem:
To see the full effect of the issue, first ensure there is a window from another application (like Windows Explorer) that will cover the sample applications window if brought to the foreground (making the Windows Explorer window full screen works).
Start the sample application (and ensure that the full screen Window Explorer is the next application to activate).
Then in the drop down box in the top right corner of the UI select Template8.htm.
Click the Print Preview button that is just below the drop down box (this will open a new Print Preview window).
In the new window click the Print… button (this will open a Print dialog).
Click the Print button at the bottom of the Print dialog.
The Print dialog closes (expected) and then the Print Preview window also closes (not expected), however the document is still printed successfully.
When the Print Preview windows is closed unexpectedly, the Windows Explorer window is brought to the foreground (obscuring the sample applications window).
If you reselect the sample application and click the Print Preview button again, the Print Preview dialog is not displayed unless you restart the application (this looks to be a symptom of the same issue, not a separate problem).
To see that the Print Preview window appears to be closed by the startDoc call, use the resource editor in Visual Studio (the exe can be opened directly by File | Open | File…) to edit the HTML resource "TEMPLATE8.HTM" (I found I needed to delete
it and add it back in for the change to stick), find the startDoc call and add two alerts, one on the line before and one on the line after. When IE is accessing the template, it is being done using the name of the executable (so do not rename the modified
version of printtemplates.exe, make the changes to a copy in a different directory if you don't want to change the original). Start the modified version of the application and follow the same steps as in the reproduction. This time, after clicking
the Print button in the Print dialog, the dialog will close, the first alert will pop up, then the Print Preview window will close, then
the second alert will pop up.
Thank you,
Warren.

Hi Shu,
I have noticed that the print templates API is listed as part of the Legacy APIs.
Is this just because it hasn't changed or is not new? Or does this mean that it is no longer maintained and may be removed (or at least deprecated) at some point in the future?
It would good to know if we should start planning for the implementation of a different method of printing.
I understand that the sample application is no longer maintained, but I also think that the Print Template API that it uses has not changed, and so should still work (and it does mostly).
If the Print Preview window was being closed as a result of using the Print dialog (and if it had behaved the same way with IE8) I would be willing to go with the by design argument.
I have found that the Print Preview window is not closed until startDoc is called, and it closes before control is returned from the startDoc function.
Just as part of investigating and try to find a workaround, if I call window.close(), any alert calls made no longer display the alert window after the close call.
Alert still functions after startDoc has closed the window however.
The is not the sort of consistent behaviour I would expect from something that is by design.
Also while investigating, I found that calling startDoc after calling window.close() results in an exception with the error code -2147467259 (0x80004005), this is probably quite normal and expected, but does indicate that the Web Browser Control should
not be closed till after printing.
I had found that old thread, and I had concluded it was the same issue, but it was also aimed at different aspect of the problem (which I see in the sample application, but not my application).
The visible issue I have is that my users think the application has been closed because after clicking print (on the Print dialog) the application gets hidden by other windows from other applications.
This aspect affects the sample in the same manner and so it was a convenient way to demonstrate the problem.
If IE connect do not look at this issue any time soon, do I have any other avenues to resolve this issue?
Thank you,
Warren.

Missing Print Templates Folder

I have recently purchased some blog templates and I can not install them because I have no print templates folder.
I go edit-preferences-show lightroom folder- lightroom- and there is no print templates folder to drop the templates into.
Please help!
Thanks!

I assume you mean, Edit / Preferences... [presets tab] Location: [Show Lightroom Presets Folder]. If you haven't yet saved any print presets of your own, then LR has not yet had any need of a User folder to contain such. So one may not yet have been made.
The easiest way to get LR to do that, (and to be sure that you are looking in the right place) : click the + icon next to Template Browser in Print module.
IOW: save a dummy print preset, doesn't matter about its contents, but enter some very distinctive name and then click Create. By default this should go into "User Templates", which is made as necessary, though you can choose to make a differently named folder if you prefer.
Full path on my Win8.1 is C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Lightroom\Print Templates\User Templates
Then take a look in Explorer and see what has changed - if there's any problem, you can always disk search for whatever distinctive template name you have just entered. Copy your other bought templates alongside this new dummy print preset, restart LR and you should be able to start using any of those. Delete the dummy preset in due course.
(Note that it is quite usual for built-in LR presets to be held somewhere quite different, than user created or user added items. The provided choices such as "(1) 4 x 6" and "custom 1 over 2" may not be findable anywhere on disk, for example.)

Printing Templates for Multiple Print Sizes

It would have been nice to have been able to create printing templates of different sized prints on the same page like portrait photographers do. Features of QImage should have been incorporated.

I agree with the above comments. As I see it, the Print modules needs these improvement:
- Multiple images of various sizes and shapes on a single page.
- Ability to place resizable text cells (multiple) anywhere on a page. [The Identity Plate feature comes close until you try to put it on every image which causes it to lock to the center of each image.]
- Ability to change the font and location of Metadata displayed next an image
- Ability to display an Identity Plate in the Margin area (or any text object).
Essentially I should be able to create a simple book or album from the Print module with customizable text cells. I have no doubt LR has much of this already planned - it makes a lot of sense.

Missing print templates - Lightroom preset ones

All the preset Lightroom PRINT templates have disappeared. I see the folder on the left that says Print templates and Lightroom templates and user templates. If I import templates they show up in user templates as expected but the Lightroom Templates is completely empty - just pops up new folder box. I have checked preferences and looked for the template folder. I just has a folder for user templates which seems to be what the problem is. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times to no avail. I also went back and deleted old versions (3,4) and the preferences files and every other file/folder I could find relating to lightroom including catalogs. I have lightroom installed on both my laptop and Imac. The problem is occuring on both so it seems that accidently deleting something is unlikely. I've never looked at the print module before so this may have been going on for a long time.
Any ideas on how to get these.

How to change the default print template for broadcast PDF Export

Hi,
I have currently designed a print template for printing purposes and use this as the template for the print button(Export to PDF),if i were to click on this button the output pdf is the desired PDF. But if i were to broadcast the template with output format as PDF it picks the layout of the current template, how do i set broadcast to pick up the print template also???
Further how to insert a page break in a PDF print template.

Hi Nagesh,
These setting are for
1.Adhoc Template for Queries
2. Adhoc Template for reports designed through report designer
3. Template for query precalculation
4. Template for displaying broadcasting wizard.
When we use broadcasting from query designer to email PDF's the system uses 0QUERY_TEMPLATE_BROADCAST_PDF.
From WAD the system uses the current template layout as PDF Layout.
P.S: OSS note 1054460 -<b>Depending on the BI object type and possibly other criteria, different Web templates are used in BI broadcasting to generate PDF (and PS or PCL) formats:</b>
<i>For Web templates: the Web template itself is used</i>

Location-Aware Printing not working correctly in Windows 8

I am running Windows 8 Enterprise 64-bit on a Lenovo ThinkPad X230 laptop and joined to a domain. I have set up location aware printing (in Devices and Printers -> Manage default printers) to map to different printers between office and home.
It works but with a glitch.
It does the switching correctly if I put the laptop in Sleep mode when I leave office/home.
However, with a shutdown/restart or a reboot, the "Manage Default Printers" setting would revert back to "Always use the same printer as my default printer".
Am I the only one who has this issue?

i may have some more information:
if i disable hybrid sleep the bug doesnt occur. try it and let me know
First open Control Panel.
Navigate to Hardware and Sound -> Power Options
Click on "Choose what the power button does" on left hand side.
Click on "Change settings that are currently unavailable" later on.
Now you will see at the bottom an option "Enable Hybrid Boot" under Windows shutdown settings. From here you can either enable or disable
Hybrid Boot by either checking or unchecking that check box option. When Hybrid Boot is enabled, Windows 8 does not close the kernel session, but closes just the user sessions.
Correction: No it dont help but setting stick for a while after start but suddently reverts back to faulty setting when boot has completed
hence something must change setting during boot

Printing a PDF file over pre-printed template

I would like to be able to print a PDF file (file A) over the top of another PDF file (file B ). For example, file A could be a letter that needs to be sent out and file B could be the company letterhead. The resulting file would be the letter on company letterhead.
I need to be able to do this because I am printing from an application that allows limited customization of the output format. Having the ability to print one file over another would enable me to create a "pre-printed template" in an application that has more flexibility. I could then add the data from the first application over the top of the "pre-printed template."
I am using Acrobat Professional 7.0.9 on a Windows XP Professional system. If necessary I can upgrade to a more recent version of Acrobat.
Thanks for your help

I would like to do this all electronically. I don't produce a hard copy at any time but rather create the PDF and then email the file to the recipient.

Printer Templates Don't work in LR4

I just installed LR4 (windows 7 version) and the printer templates came in OK (it seems) they are there anyway and when I mouse over them the little display window at the top shows them changing but when I click nothing happens. Everything works fine in LR3.
A bit more: It seems that it will work sporaticly sometimes after I run LR 3 and pop through a few print templates in LR 3, then go back to LR 4 where tehy will work for a bit then it won't again. Very strange.

You can to try to set "Ruler Units". Sorry for my english.

Lightroom 5 print templates not allowing images to be moved into cells & not allowing individual cells to be selected

I've run into a problem using the LR5 print templates that has occurred suddenly and I need help figuring out what happened.
Yesterday I tried using a Print template from my User Templates menu and the one I selected wouldn't allow an image to be dragged into a cell. I also noticed that the template wouldn't allow me to select the cells for size adjustment, either. Other templates had the same behavior, even the templates in the Lightroom Templates menu.
Not only that, but when I hover the mouse cursor over the template name in the menu it displays the template properly in the Preview pane above the menus, but when I click the mouse to select the template the Preview display changes to one that's completely different, which is the same as what shows in the main viewing area.
I have a few non-Lightroom templates (added by me) that work properly, but all of the Print templates in the Lightroom Templates menu show these symptoms. How can I get the Lightroom Print Templates to behave?
Anybody...suggestions??
Thanks!

I'm having almost the exact same problem. the Lightroom library is not recognizing that the files stored in a LOCAL dropbox folder are the same ones as in the library. So if I try to "synch" library, i end up with 40k photos that are missing from my library but they are not. They are there.

Location of User Template - English.lproj for AD Plugin

When OSX creates accounts on a local machine, it pulls the default set of account folders (/Library, /Pictures, /Music, etc) from /System/Library/User Template/English.lproj/... This is an excellent way to pre-configure new user accounts with specific prefs, etc.
When setting up the AD plugin to authenticate from an AD server, one checks the "Use UNC path from Active Directory to derive network home location" button to have the users' home folder mounted as a sharepoint from whatever is specified in the AD for the user. This works as expected for both WIN and OSX users.
BUT
New users' home folders (empty) are populated with a /Library folder which does not come from /System/Library/User Template/English.lproj/...
Can anybody point me to 'real' location of these template files?

Can't locate wifi printer

I just had a router change to Netgear and after stting up my printer (Brother MFC 490CW) and my iMac wireless to it, my computer can't locate the printer as it has done with the old router. Any help on this please?

Care to share which OS you are using?
Read the user manual that came w/your printer. Should be instructions in there regarding wireless set up. Also, contact Brother Support if their user manual is of no help.

Location of CSS template files

hi all,
Can anybody tell me the location of CSS template files to customize the template ??
thanks in advance
Regards,
Ahmed

You do NOT want to change the bundled CSS files. Create your own CSS and include it in the template after the built-in CSS include. Any classes you create in your own file of the same name and specificity as the built-in classes will override those classes. For example:<style type="text/css">
td.myclass{color:red}
td.myclass{color:blue}
</style>The color of the text in a table cell with the class "myclass" will be blue, not red, since the same class was defined twice, it will use the one that came last on the page.
If you change the classes in the built-in template CSS files, you'll change them for everyone using your APEX instance, which is not a particularly good thing to do.
