Odd and Even Headers in Pages 5

I think this has been asked before, but is it possible to making different odd and even-paged headers in Pages 5? I can't figure it out.

You can take this to be the answer for most things Pages 5…
… No!
Use Pages '09 instead.

Selective combining between files with odd and even numbers of pages

Hi all! First of all, i hope this is the right forum for my question. It has been asked before, but not fully answered. My problem is combining multiple pdfs with adding a blank page only to the ones that contain odd numbers of pages, the ones with even numbers should be left alone. I need a fast and automatic way of doing this so i can save huge amounts of time when faced with massive numbers of files. If this simply cannot be done, is there a way of sorting all the files so that, from the whole group, only the ones with odd numbers of pages go to a specified folder? Like this isnt enough i have the same problem when converting, lest say, multiple word files into 1 pdf file using pdf factory.
Thanx in advance! also, any other way to go arround this problem is most welcome!
Cheers!

It would require knowledge of some JavaScript to determine if a particular page was landscape and if so, to rotate it. You could try asking in the JavaScript forum.

Different margin for odd and even pages

Hi there,
I am writing a book which will be printed in 2 sided paper. Therefor I will need different margin (left and right) for the odd and even pages.
How is it possible in Pages? I am using Pages 5.2 (1860).
Thank you.
Sebastian.

Indesign & Xpress are professional DTP applications. They can layout pages in any order you can imagine with custom margins. They are also complex to learn & expensive in comparison to Pages.
There is a trial of Indesign IIRC…
https://www.adobe.com/uk/products/indesign.html
Quark also has a trial too…

I expect there may be cheaper 'layout' software that is capable of arranging facing pages correctly (possibly from a single pages PDF export from Pages), but I just avoid apps like Pages if I need a finer level of output control.

Printing odd and even pages separately (manual duplex)

Hi
I searched the forum and found some similar problems regarding Adobe Reader 8.1.2 : Adobe Reader 8.1.2 doesn't print odd and even pages correctly
This was posted more than a year ago. A few days ago I encountered the same problem with Adobe Acrobat 8.1.2. I suspected that it could be beacause of outdated software. I then applied incremental patches up to 8.1.5. But the problem still persists.

The link was about Reader, but I tried it with AA8.1.5 on a 3 page document and did indeed find the same problem. The 1st page printed out, but the 3rd page was missing when printing the odd pages. When printing the even pages, the 2nd page printed out 2 times. The 3rd page never showed up. I think this is what you are talking about. Wonder if they fixed it in AA9?

Is it possible to have different margin settings for odd and even pages?

Hi guys.
I am formatting a book I want to get printed and it would be very helpful to have different margin settings on the odd and even pages so the text won't fall too close to the gutter (as happened in the proof copy I ordered!).
It's possible to do this on Word, but I can't seem to do it on Pages? Am I missing something?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Thanks Peter. I upgraded to Pages 5 a while back. I guess my next question is.....is there any way I can downgrade to Pages 09...anywhere I can still download it from?
Seems a bit of a backward step, but needs must

Odd and even rotating pages by file name

Hi all,
Hoping someone can help me trouble shoot my script below.
The aim is to determined if the last two digits of the file name are odd or even and then rotate the file accordingly.
I have been able to get the page rotation work by it's self but it seems to do nothing at all when trying to get the last two digits of the filename and use them as the variable "pgNum".
Files will be named using the following convention....
aa-02-02.pdf
Thank you in advance for you help.
=======================================================================================
var re = /.*\/|\.pdf$/ig;
var filename = this.path.replace(re,"");;
var pgNum = filename.substring(-2);
try {
    if(pgNum % 2) {
        var crtpagerotate = this.getPageRotation({nPage:i});
        this.setPageRotations({nStart: i, nEnd: i, nRotate:(270+crtpagerotate)%360});
    else {
        var crtpagerotate = this.getPageRotation({nPage:i});
        this.setPageRotations({nStart: i, nEnd: i, nRotate:(90+crtpagerotate)%360});
catch (e)
    console.println("Batch Aborted: " + e )

Try this:
var re = /\.pdf$/i;
var filename = this.documentFilename.replace(re, "");
var pgNum = +filename.slice(-2);

Odds and evens

Hi,
How can i determine when a number is odd or even?.
Rgds,
Jose

hi,
Just divide by 2, and check the remainder.
report ztest.
data:
rem type p decimals 2,
val type i value 657.
rem = ( val mod 2 ).
if rem = 0.
write:/ 'Even'.
else.
write:/ 'Odd'.
endif.
Hope this helps !!!

Odd and even pages

Hello all, Need some help on the xdp that I am working on.
This xdp has 1 Page Set- set to Print on Both Sides.
The first master page is the Odd Pages (Front pages).
The second master page is the Even Pages (Back pages).
There isn't much logic on the Even Pages as it is only static information.
The content on the Odd (Front) pages flow and page number grow depending on the XML data I feed into it. I have explicitly set the content to flow through the content are of the Odd (Front) page only. Problem is, when the data breaks, it still puts a record or two on the content area of the Even (Back) page.
Also, I was hoping that whenever there is an Odd (Front) page, I would assume that it would always have an Even (Back) page, but that is not the case. Sometimes the pages end out on the Odd Page.
I would like to share the xdp along with the xml that I am working on to this posting. Is there a way to upload this information. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The trouble is that when you have repeating objects they will continue in the container as new instances are added. When the page overflows, Acrobat/Reader is creating a new instance of the page, in which the new instances of the repeating object can be rendered.
I had an example earlier that "jumped" a section, but in reality what it was doing was when the first page was full, it started to use a similar repeating instance on page3. Here it is, but you will need to have a close look at the script, as this was not annotated: https://acrobat.com/#d=0-YvJ8UcVW7Pyc4hhg3RmQ. It is a bit of a rough workaround, based on the height of the subform (see the click event of the add button on page1).
You might also be able to get a conditional page break to work if the height of the rows was always the same.
Hope that helps,
Niall

Apple Mail - Printing without margins and/or headers, multiple pages per sheet

I have orders coming in by email that I need to print out as packing sheets/order tickets. In the email I have the submissions set to come in as html tables, all of a uniform size. I want to print 4 per page, and can do that by selecting 4 emails, "Print", and then 4 pages per sheet in the print settings and it gives me 4 unique orders on one sheet. But the giant standard margins make it so the submission tables are way too small (they could easily be almost double the size and fit fine on the sheet) and I don't want the email header information displayed. This really doesn't seem like too much to ask, I hope it's not really as impossible as all the forums make it seem! In another forum, BDAqua mentioned possibly making a script for this?
The order submissions are generated from my form on Jotform. This is a great form builder, at least in my first-time experience, but seems lacking in output options - reports can only be generated as tables, and on the web-based submission viewer the print options are extremely limited as well. I have also experimented with Excel: Jotform will export submissions all together on one excel spreadsheet, but in my situation that would mean I would have to figure out how to print each row separately. I spent some time on the excel forums and from what people said it sounds like a huge headache and very tedious. I created this form in order to save a lot of time in taking down orders, so it would be really nice to be able to print them directly in quarter-sheet format. Even in full-sheet format, I still wouldn't want the email headers or all the white space.
Any ideas? I'm running 10.9 on a 2009 MacBook Pro 13", and have a basic Brother HL-2070N laser printer and an Epson Workforce 610 (DC8508) - either would serve the purpose, but I doubt this issue has anything to do with which printer I'm using. Thanks for any ideas/feedback!

What you are wanting to accomplish, can be done, but it is not necessarily a simple task and is going to require at least a modicum of programming skill. Filemaker comes first to my mind as offering reasonably powerful data extraction and analysis capabiity as well as the ability to store the transactions in a database and analyze the data in an almost infinite variety of ways. However, this will require the services of a Filemaker analyst and programmer to create and maintain the system. Don't forget the system will need almost continuous maintenance and enhancement.
If you can change the way you receive the orders, there is a large number of shopping cart systems offered by virtually every internet hosting firm that can be adapted to a wide variety of marketing activities and they maintain staffs of programmers to handle the adaptation and maintenance -- at a price.

Odd and even years with Time Windows?

Hi All,
Does anybody know how to implement a time window for even years / ode years?
For example, a script A that needs to be executed every 1st January of even years and a script B that needs to be executed every 1st January of odd years.
At last, it possible to :
- specify hard coded dates in TW for these scripts,
- use particular pre conditions (which script from A or B has to be executed) with a common yearly TW
but better solutions are welcome
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Yi Jiang

Hi Yi,
If you need this for only one case, I'd go for the one-off setup of specific dates.
If you have multiple cases, a simple way to achieve your goal is the following set of time windows:
- TW_EVEN_YEARS: from 1-1-2010 to 31-12-2010, 1-1-2012 to 31-12-2012, 1-1-2014 to 31-12-2014, ...
- TW_ODD_YEARS: from 1-1-2009 to 31-12-2009, 1-1-2011 to 31-12-2011, 1-1-2013 to 31-12-2013, ...
and then
- TW_DAY1_EVEN_YEARS: day 1 enabled during TW_EVEN_YEARS
- TW_DAY1_ODD_YEARS: day 1 enabled during TW_ODD_YEARS
- TW_LAST_FRIDAY_EVEN_YEARS: last friday enabled during TW_EVEN_YEARS
- TW_LAST_FRIDAY_ODD_YEARS: last friday enabled during TW_ODD_YEARS
etc.
This way, you do not need to specify the dates for each case, only once.
Regards,
Anton.

How do you stop tabs from displaying "Connecting..." forever and even after the pages have loaded?

Even after all of my pages have loaded, the tabs continue to say "Connecting..." I don't have any kind of add-on/plugin like tabrenamer are anything that should be affecting the titles of my tabs. This can be an inconvenience when working with several pages at a time. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Some pages are using scripts like GoogleAPIs ,YahooAPIs, GoogleAnalytics, webTools pages and etc. sometimes the requested URL for the script or any web page element (like pictures and icons) are missing or so busy and there is no response from the server. The requests are sent to server using '''UDP '''protocol (means high speed, but '''no accuracy for very busy servers and lost connections'''!). UDP is a high speed protocol and send and receive your requested elements rapidly!
1- You can try clicking in the address bar and pressing enter. this may help you sometimes.
2- Also you can use add-ons like '''NoScript '''for disabling unwanted scripts. You can try installing NoScript and click on "Allow scripts globally". Then, at the pages you mentioned load too long and never stop, try to disable scripts while you find the bad or not respinding script (Scripts)!

Firefox 23.0.1 ignores about:blank , either in awesome bar/address bar, and even in home page option.

exactly this behaviour:
step 1: on a page e.g. [ http://www.google.com/ ]
step 2: enter [ about:blank ] in address bar and press [ return ] or [ go ]
step 3: ... NO reaction / nothing happens, the Google-page stays on screen!
strange!

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

Detecting odd and even numbers

How can I now when an integer is an even or an odd number?

How can I now when an integer is an even or an odd number?Either of these will work:
if (i % 2 == 0)
    // even
else
    // odd
if ((i & 1) == 0)
    // even
else
    // odd

Function detect odd and even number

Do you know a function which can detect if a number is an odd number or other.

if ( number%2 == 1)
But a method for this? Really doubt that..

How to specify Master page depending on odd or even first page

We've set up our books to delete empty pages and so that we have chapters starting on both odd and even pages. Also, the first pages of our chapters are formatted differently than the rest of the Left and Right Master pages. We would like to have two Master pages for the first page of the chapter, one for odd pages and the other for even, so that we can offset the margins, leaving a larger margin on the side towards the binding.
My question is how do I set up the book so that when it generates, if the chapter starts on an odd page, it automatically applies the Master page for odd first pages and when the first page is even, it applies the Master page for even first pages?
We have FramMaker 8 and are running it on Windows XP Professional.
Thanks,
Tim

Assuming that you want this to happen automagically, I'd use the system default Right and Left Master pages as your chapter opener pages because Frame will apply those automatically depending on how the pages and chapters fall in the book. Then set up the internal chapter pages with whatever other structure you're using and apply those internal masters to the normal content that as you go.
If you can't do that for some reason, I would look at doing it with a FrameScript that goes through the book and applies the alternating pages as a final production step.
You could set up the first tag in the chapter to call a specific master page, but that would be manual and could quickly go south if any chapters ahead of a given chapter change the pagination. It would have to be manual because a given tag can only call one master page -- there isn't a way to apply logic to call one or the other depending on the situation.
