Override default margins

I'm creating a single-page document, landscape orientation, and because I want most of the page filled with copy, I want top and bottom margins narrower than the default margins of Pages'09. I tried changing the margins in inspector, but I can't get around the default settings.
Does anyone know how to override the default pages margins, top and bottom?

Thanks. I did that, but I notice that my text is still inside the old margins. When I click on "show layout" I still see a box around the text. How do I get that box to expand -- or is Pages set up so that the box always retains the same dimensions?
Phillip,
Did you set all four margin settings to zero in the Document Inspector, Document tab? Did you set the margin stops on the Rulers to the extremes? Are all the margins on the Layout Inspector, Layout tab set to zero? Those are about all you options, as far as I know. I'm assuming that your text is all in the text layer of a Word Processing Template.

  • Pages '09 / 4.1 Set Default Margins?

    I want to change the default margins in Pages.app to something other than 1".
    Can I do this? If so, how.
    I know how to change the margins on any individual document but I want to change the DEFAULT margin size from 1" to .5".
    Any ideas?
    I want to set this for my company so that employees are not wasting paper and needlessly printing extra pages. You may have read about an effort and study to reduce paper usage through reduced default margins.

    Thanks.

    It seems that you made something wrongly or that something is corrupted in your system.
    Here, the Save As Template feature behaves flawlessly.

    Open the document,
    Tap the Tools icon (upper right).
    Tap Document Set up.
    Drag the margins to the position you wish (the actual margin width sould display as you are doing this).

  • Change the default margin settings for the MS word!

    Hi All,
    BI Publisher version:latest 10.1.3.4
    DB:10.2.0.4
    Oracle Apps:12.0.6
    OS:AIX
    We are facing an issue of which description is as below:
    RTF output is being uploaded through "XML Publisher" Responsibility.
    3.1.9 Header and Footer Margin from Edge Not Preserved in RTF Output
    This issue applies to Versions 10.1.3.3, 10.1.3.3.1, 10.1.3.3.2, 10.1.3.3.3, 10.1.3.4, and 10.1.3.4.1.
    Microsoft Word provides a Page Setup option for specifying the margin for the headers and footers from the edge of the page. This option is available by choosing the File menu, then Page Setup, then the Margins tab, and the From edge box. This margin setting is not retained when the output format is RTF. The output is created with the default margin settings instead. The margin settings do work correctly for other output formats such as HTML, PDF, and Excel.
    So, the "default setting" mentioned here is around 1/2 inch for MS Word which is getting added in the output, even if the margin in template is zero.
    Expected output:
    So what we need to do is -
    1. Check the MS word installation on the application server
    2. Change this default margin setting as top and bottom 0 on the server in the MS word page setup. (I can give you steps to do this in word if required)
    We have tried setting this margin to 0 on client side and generating the output and it makes no difference, so it must be coming from the server.
    We need to know how could we modify the settings and need to know te source and Check the MS word installation on the application server?
    Could anyone please share such an issue faced before!
    Thanks for your time!
    Regards,

    Hi All,
    Moreover,
    Our understanding about the RTF output is this -
    When we generate an RTF report output from Oracle EBS, the word document that is generated is with the settings of MS word that is installed on application server.
    This understanding could be wrong as we have never faced such situation before! We have come to this conclusion because the default settings that we do on client machine do not work.
    And as per the documentation of BI publisher the RTF should always be generated with the default settings of MS word.
    So what you could help us with is this -
    1. See if the MS word application is installed on application server ( if you think this is not application server, but any other server then please check there!)
    2. Change the default margin settings for the MS word.
    Regards,

  • Default Margins on Web Template Print Version

    Hi all,
    I am trying to change the default margins on a Web Template Print Version.  I have created a command button on my templates which sets all the other options on the Export Dialog, however I am unable to set margins using the command parameters.  The margins are always defaulted to 20mm.  I would like to default them to 6mm so that users will not need to change them for each print.
    If this is a configuration setting I am unable to find it.  Do I need to modify a standard template or iView?  I would appreciate any suggestions.

    Hi,
    I am also facing same problem, have you got any solution. If yes can u plz share with me.

  • How to set HP5610 default margins

    We print a lot of documents/forms from the state and the last quarter inch or so gets cut off the bottom of the documents, and the state won't take them unless the offical form number is displayed (and it's naturally on the very bottom of the page).  
    How do I set the default margin for the HP5610?  This happens across all 3 of our browsers (IE, FireFox, Chrome), although the forms are in pdf form.

    Hello @chevy454 , thanks for getting back to me!
    I'd recommend trying a few things.
    First, you'll want to uninstall the current software:
    Uninstalling the Printer Software
    Then, put your printer into clean boot mode:
     How to perform a clean boot in Windows
    Once the computer is in clean boot mode, reinstall the software via the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.
    Good luck and please keep me posted!

  • Problem when overriding default skin of Flex

    Hi all,
    I tried to change the default style of Flex by redefining the css file. To Button, I add some different images to different status. Because Combo, ColorPicker are all inherited from Button, they all have the same style like Button has, even if I define new style for Combo as well.
    How to avoid this scenario? What is the right way to overriding default skin?
    Thanks and regards,
    Yan

    Hi there,
    I played around with skinning a few months ago too but I didn't run over this problem. Check this article: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/flex_skins.html I don't know how are you replacing the default icons but what I did, was to build my skins from scratch with the help of the template of Flex skins for Photoshop, saved each skin as a .png file and everything worked fine.
    With best regards,

  • Override Default Page Activation Workflow

    Hello,
    I am trying to override the default handling of Authors requesting page activations.  By default, an Author that doesn’t have Replication privileges has the request sent to the Admin group.  We’ve created several workflows specifically for different groups since each has their own approval flow:
    CQ User Group                 CQ Workflow
    Consumer >>                     Consumer Approval Workflow
    eCRM >>                             Consumer Approval Workflow
    Business >>                        Business Approval Workflow
    I realize the Author could select the workflow from the Sidekick, but I need ot ensure the correct workflow is assigned if they simply click “Activate” from the Sidekick or the Site Admin (Websites) page.  What’s the best way to accomplish this – writing some sort of servlet, using the Dynamic Participant Step, something else?  The logic would be fairly straight forward – on activation request, check user group and assign page to pre-defined workflow and initiate.

    You can set this in version 5.1.
    Thanks,

  • Overriding default printer margins

    I am having trouble controlling the margins on my reports. In the report builder i have them set as one thing, but when i run the report they get set to the default print settings on my machine of 1 inch. Is there a way to override a user's default printer settings when printing a report thorugh a browser??
    Thanks,
    Patrick

    Hi Patrick
    If I understand your problem correctly, Though you set the margin as say "0" in report, still you see a margin of 1.0 in the output.
    If this is the problem, the reason is Reports takes the hardware margin of your printer into account and adds to the margin you set in report.
    Generally this is what is the expected behaviour from the users
    In Reports 9i, you would see a way of controlling this by command line ignoreMargin
    Thanks

  • Override default send from email id and attachment name in email delivery

    How to override the default send from email ID and attachment name to send an outbound document using Email Transport protocol in Oracle Integration B2B ?. I've seen that "[email protected]" and subject of the email message were used as send from email ID and attachment name respectively

    Ramesh,
    I set the send from email ID as Generic Identifier for host and send to email ID as Generic Identifier for trading partner and used it in the agreement. How ever still the email message is generated with "[email protected]" as send from email ID.
    However I noticed that the "FROM" field in the wire message is updated with the correct send from email ID which I used as the Generic Identifier for host.
    Please advise.

  • Calender overriding default alert settings in iOS

    Here's the problem: when I do an All Day Event in Calendar, something overrides my default Alert settings and sets and Alert for 9:00am the day before the All Day Event. I only want Alerts set on Events I choose, so I'm assuming that's why I have my defaults Everywhere (Mac, iPad, iPhone iPod Touch) set to None for Birthdays, Events, and All Day Events. Once the Alert sounds, if I go in to Edit the Event and delete the Alert, it does not recur if edited properly. (I do use multi-day All Day Events).
    This is most annoying, BTW. Because I trust these devices to be accurate and to do what I expect within their rather few limitations compared to the rest of the techno-device universe.
    What am I not doing? What should be undone?
    Thanks for any help.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgsQgJWeGZE
    i need to know how to create my own digital signing tool and integrate into Adobe reader??,
    thank you for your help

    I need "two up (cover)" not (facing), because it jumbles the pagination. c1 and c4 should be seen as single pages, and the rest of the doc should be spreads.
    Hi Bill.
    Yes you would want the "Two up (cover)" when you have layout as attached pdf, but that was not what was in the question, so thats why I suggested tge other version
    ("So that when a user opens the pdf in Reader it is initally shown as 2up (two page spread)")
    Full screen mode is primarily intended for presentations - as a Powerpoint slide alias, so it would make no sence to show a spread, cause you would want to show a slide.
    If you want the full screen to show as you described, make page 2 and forth as a one page (spread size).

  • Overriding Defaults for "Reply To" and [Reply] "From

    When I reply to a message, Mail selects values for the Reply To field and the From field. I can override these manually, but is there a way to set a different default? I could not see any way to do this with Rules. I suspect there is a way to write an Apple Script to do this, but that's work.
    thanks

    Thanks. I understand that Reply To does not have any other information by which to choose a default other than the email address of the sender. However, if one has multiple email accounts configured, it might be the case that you want to use one of them is the FROM default regardless of which account receives the email. As you point out Preferences --> Compose will let you do this. But if the FROM address is content dependent, then I need to able to construct a Rule - apparently that is not possible.
