Official word on PPC support cut off?

What is the date that Apple has set for ceasing development of software for PPC-based macs?

hmmm, I remember with the old .mot processors people still run and use those as mail servers or have them for posterity. I'm working on building another mac which will be a sawtooth in a silverstone temjin 7 case. That's why I asked! I would hate to spend money and have OS X or OS 11 not support ppc.
I suspect that since the supercomputers that were built with 970s will be around for some time It'll be 10 years or so until they phase out PPC support. Pretty clever huh!? I just thought of that.
Especially the Illinois-Urbana teraflopper. Perhaps only OS X server will support PPC in the future in which case I'll need to be runnin X server.
I'll still leave this thread 'unsolved' to garner more ideas.

Printing to .pdf from Word, right margin is cut off or truncated. Is there a fix for this?

I often have to print Word (2011) documents to a PDF. I never noticed a problem before. But I noticed that recently (can't say when it started), the right margin is cut off or truncated. And I cannot figure out a way to stop it!
What has changed in Mountain Lion PDF creation via the Print function is causing this!
Any help would be appreciated!

I did find a solution, but it does not resolve the problem.
I have several printers installed on my MacBook Pro. The truncation problem happens whenever the printer selected is my new HP PhotoSmart 7515.
But, if I change the printer in the dialog box to my Brother HL-4070cdw before I try to print to a PDF, then the document contents are NOT truncated!
So I found a solution, but it is not a perfect one.
Hopefully this helps!

Hyperlinks in word containing spaces are cut off in pdf generation

We are using a mix of MS Word 2003, 2007 and 2010. All are experiencing the same problem when using Adobe products (Abobe Acrobat Pro 9, Adobe X, Adobe Elements) for the generation of a pdf document with respect to hyperlinks.
When we have hyperlinks containing "spaces" they will get cut off in the resulting pdf document.
Examples have formatting like this in Word
http://team.eu.enet/XXX/Master data forms/Master Data Project.xls
When we convert this in Adobe it cuts off the link after encountering the first space, like this
http://team.eu.enet/XXX/Master (on the face of it the whole line looks like the one above, but the hyperlink shown when hovering over it has been cut like shown)
In some cases the spaces are replaced with %20 (IE for example replaces spaces with these characters automatically). For those cases the conversion works just fine, and the whole line is maintained as a hyperlink also in the pdf
http://team.eu.enet/XXX/Master%20data%20forms/Master%20Data%20Project.xls (again, the line does not look like this in the pdf, but the link when hovering over it does)
When we use the Save as function in Word 2007/2010 this replacement is done automatically. the links in the "word generated pdf" are not containing spaces,
Is there any way to get this replacement done automatically when converting hyperlinks from Word to PDF? Repairing the links afterwards (which is possible, I know) is not a viable option when you have many such links in a word file.

Sort answer: Use proper syntax and do not use the "space" character in any URL.
"20" is hex for the space character (which is a "reserved" character in that it may have special meaning).
If used out of context being "reserved" applications have to make something of a guess.
Success is the %20. Sometimes success is not had.
So, again, proper syntax - no "space" character in a URL (use the underscore).

Words in safe zone cut off

Hello I have a project with several movies on one DVD. I am using standard, not widescreen. When I export my movie out of final cut express, which is in dv-NTSC I preview it in iDVD and it shows a caption of widescreen preview. I re-exported it and the same thing happens to my slideshow. None of my other clips show that. Why is that? Is it effecting my safe zone? When I play the DVD on my tv some of my words in the safe zone aren't safe, not seen on the screen. Thanks.

Please help. I have looked at other discussions. I have cut the entire slideshow out of FInal Cut Express and repasted it in another Final Cut Express document. That doesn't change the "Widescreen Preview" in green. Like I said it doesn't show that on the other. I have deleted my preferences com.apple.idvd.plist
I have saved it to the desktop. I am at a loss and I need to get this project done today. Please help!

The right side of my browser window is cut off. There is no scroll bar on the right and the search bar (upper right) is chopped off (right side).

Actually, the whole right side of the window is cut off, including the page/window header. This isn't just the websites I visit, it's the whole browser window(s). The word "Settings" is also cut off on the right side.

It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high and that the scroll bars fall off.
* Use Restore or Maximize in the right-click context menu of the Taskbar icon to set focus to the Firefox application if you do not see the Firefox window.
* Open the system menu of that Firefox window via Alt+Space and see if you can move and resize that window.
If that works then close Firefox (File > Exit/Quit) to save that setting.

IOS 8.2 update resulted in the bottom of my 6plus phone screen (the wording below the 5 icons - favorites, recent, contacts, etc.) being cut off. Fix?

iOS 8.2 update resulted in the bottom of my 6plus phone screen (the wording below the 5 icons - favorites, recent, contacts, etc.) being cut off. Fix?

Hi there Melinda,
As I understand it, it seems like a part of the screen isn't visible at the bottom. I would start by quitting all the running apps on the iPhone:
iOS: Force an app to close
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
I would next check to see if an Accessibility option enabled making the screen larger with iTunes:
Use Accessibility features in iOS
Connect your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to any computer with iTunes installed.
In iTunes, select your device.
From the Summary pane, click > Configure Universal Access in the Options section at the bottom.
Select the feature you would like to use and click OK.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

HT4356 printing page from facebook using picture and airprint page in upper left quadrant with words and margin cut off

I have a ipad 4 with 6700 hp printer. I was told by support that the way to print a page from facebook was to take a picture of the page and then print the picture. When I do this the picture is printed in the upper left hand quadrant with part of the wording cut off. Is the only or best way to print from facebook and how can I fix the location of the print. Seems Hoaky to me
Luther288

Well after weeks of anguish, trips to the apple store (not very professional ), calls to Apple support (no help), calls to HP support, they transfered me to airprint support who actually told me how to fix my problem. For an HP printer download from the app store HPAIO remote print. You have to search on AIO remote print. Installed this app and now I can make the print work like I would like. Good luck

Words on some web pages are cut off or overlapped.

I have a Macbook and when I go to some web pages the words are cut off or in some cases are overlapped. Is there anything way to fix this, or is my screen size too small for some of the webpages? Thanks in advance.
In this pic it is on the left bottom.

In this pic it is towards the bottom, where you click on "Disscussions".

Regarding the picture you posted of the Apple Support site...
The text looks to be very large.
When I click on the "increase text size" button in Safari, I see the same thing as your picture.
Try clicking the "decrease text size" button.

IMessages to an iPhone occasionally appears with words cut off from end

When sending texts from iMessages to an iPhone, the text occasionally appears on their iPhone with a couple words cut off from the end. It appears fine in the iMessages display/history.   Here's a few things I've noticed:
- It's repeatable. For example, the following message always causes the issue: "man, why are you here? Two are in testing places". On the iPhone it appears as "man, why are you here? Two are in testing".
- It's a problem with iMessages. If I send the exact same text from the iPhone, it goes through just fine. The message has to originate from MacOS iMessages. (I'm using the latest Mountain Lion and all updates as of 12/21/12)
- The full message is actually being successfully transferred to the phone; it just does not display correctly. There are two pieces of evidence for this. If on the iPhone, the user copies the truncated message and pastes it somewhere else, the full message is pasted! Moreover, on the top level the messages app (where you see the last message from all the recent people you texted with), the full message displays.
- It can happen with both short and longer messages.   Here's another longer message I noticed got cut off: "That's funny that you though I was joking when I said I was debugging. Why is that so weird?"
- It has something to do with the length of the message or how it is being wrapped. I can create modifications of those texts with the same length, and they will cut off. (That said, some modifications will not cause the problem, so it's more than just length. Maybe it has something to do with how it wraps the words?) Usually adding a few words to the message will allow it to go through.
- It always cuts off at a space. In other words, it will not truncate something in the middle of a word.
- I have only seen it cut off one or two words before.
Apple really needs to make this a high priority fix. Unreliable messaging of this sort is a deal-breaker for iMessages, IMO. My guess is that they haven't had more reports for this because people simply don't notice unless the last word or two totally ruins the meaning of a text and the other person points it out.
Can people try to recreate this on their machines? If so, please do so and file a bug report (http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html). All you have to do is get on your iMessage app and text one of those two messages to your phone. If it appears truncated on your phone, you've confirmed it. You're welcome to use any of my post in any bug report.

Hi,
some entries had ¬†¬† (tabs probably)
I had seen these in Quicklook at the point where the Message appeared to show double spaces after a Full Stop or Question Mark.
You are right that it have not dawned on me that I had not seen them between words.
It was TextEdit as well (Not sure why I said QuickLook)

Part of this means the iMessages sent out.
The "repeat" is the sync back from the the ID the iPhone is using.
I am presuming the leading numbers are the iMessage identifier that iMessages uses to tell whether it has been Synced
Messages on the Mac is trying to enclose this in Coloured Balloon (or other style) and lists a Font and it's colour

Words cut off at bottom of page

I have a nicely formated document and on some pages the words get cut off at the bottom when the linespacing pushes them right to the bottom margin. The footer is fine just below it. How can I fix that?

Yes there are facing pages, each is 8.5x5" and there are about 45 pages to the document. I switched to non-facing pages and that didn't fix the problem. It only happens on pages where the line goes right to the bottom edge. It's almost as though the setting that would push that line to the next page is slightly off. I tried other fonts and the same thing happens. It shows up in the exported .pdf file and also when I print it so it's not a display issue.
I hate to say it, but I think it's a bug. I'm surprised it hasn't happened to anyone else. Since it only happens on 3 or 4 pages out of the 45, I'll do a hack. Once everything else is totally layed out, I'll slightly adjust the line spacing somewhere on each of the problem pages so that the line pulls up above the cut off.
Thank you so much for your help fruhulda. If you do replicate it somehow, I'd be curious to find out what the problem was.

When converting word doc to pdf with Acrobat words getting cut off?

Hi all,
As you can see from this example:
When converting from word document the words on the pages in the final PDF are getting cut off on the edge of the page?
I've adjusted the margins in page layout in MS Word to Normal, Moderate & Wide etc, etc
Never ever had this problem before...does anybody have any idea why or what I could do?
Thanks in advance.

As a quick check, set the printer to the Adobe PDF printer in WORD and then check for the proper operation. Also be sure the paper dimensions and orientation of your document and the printer properties match up (I have had some problems with the orientation when I have auto-rotate on). You may have to play some to get something to work. I have done that before and settled on a process that works for me, but I can't claim it all makes perfect sense. To many things are going on in some sense.

End of words being cut off in Captivate 5

Hello,
This is the problem I am having: In Captivate 5, I have added audio files to my slides. When I preview the slides individually, or 5 at a time, the audio is perfect. However, when I preview the entire project, the last word on 2 of the slides in the project gets cut off inexplicably. So, in one slide "class" becomes "cla" and in the other slide "image" becomes "ima". I have left room at the end of each of these slides to prevent the words getting cut off, but I cannot figure out why the sound is fine when listening to the slide individually, and not when I listen to the slide in the project. Help?

Hi,
Could you please try the steps mentioned here --

Let us know the results.
Thanks,

Why is the right hand side of the tables on a Word document that was imported being cut off using Webhelp but not when using Webhelp Pro?

I would prefer to use Webhelp and not Webhelp Pro because Webhelp allow for the insertion of a logo located to the right of the search field by selecting the "Show About" check box when generating content. The problem is that Webhelp is cutting off the words in the tables. Wordwrap is turned on in the Word document and the rest of the sentence will continue beneath the "cut off" word.

You would only use WebHelp Pro if you were using RH Server – that’s what the “pro” versions of output are for. I would suggest that something’s wrong with your table definition. You talk about a Word document – is this the source or the output you’re talking about?

My Oracle Support documents print with text cut off on the right margin

Just a question to check if more people have this issue. When I try to print a document from the knowledge base on My Oracle Support (MOS) it always prints with a lot of text being cut off on the right margin of the page. I tried this with different workstations, OS'es (XP Pro, W7), browsers (IE6, IE8), printers, etc. but it's always the same result. My only workaround is to copy all text and paste it into a text editor. I've logged a service request for this, but Oracle doesn't really seem to care about it and after pointing me to setting margins in Microsoft Publisher (???) and an article on how to export tables on MOS, they pointed to the HTML version of MOS (which has exactly the same issue by the way) and our local IS department for printing preferences. Apparently they cannot replicate this on their workstations, whereas I can replicate at will on a load of different workstations. I know that it's best not to print on paper and read on the screen, but even printing to a PDF writer will cut off text. Does anyone have the same issue with printing documents from MOS?

I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
