Page orientation in pages 08

Hello I need some help. I would like to know how one changes the orientation of a page ex. in a 6 page documents. Let me explain. The first page is vertical but I have a chart to insert on the second and I would like that page only to be horizontal. When I make the changes, they apply to the whole document. This is not what I want. Can someone help me? You can write to me at ******@************.com

Pages does not have the functionality you want. If this is an important feature to you, go to apple.com/feedback and request it. That Word has this feature is irrelevant - Word has many features that Pages lacks - as a former certified Word training I can tell you that the average person uses 10-15% of Word's functionality. Does that mean that Word is more powerful, or bloated?

  • How to change a single page orientation in pages

    I would like to know if anybody knows how to change a single page orientation in Pages.
    Thanks.

    Of course it unrotates the text if I'm editing the text box, but not when I'm resizing or changing font properties.  And when editng the text and there is an image beside it, the image obscures the text which makes editing exasperating. And since I got a table on landscape that exceeds 7.5" width, when trying to edit the last 2 columns,those become invisible on portrait, hence I'm unable to edit. And so has to set the doc to landscape, set to 0-deg, edit, set it again to portrait and 90-deg, and repeat if I happen to need to edit those invisible columns.  Really a great and efficient way to write my technical doc!  Which you would know IF YOU HAD TRIED IT -don't appreciate your sarcasm!
    You can defend this blatant failure all you want but this kind of inadequancy continues because people don't speak up and demand this reasonable function and instead are satisfied with work-arounds that makes things hard for relatively easy task. I'm a systems and applications designer, this is the type of "missing feature" that would cause our app to be rejected by our clients.  Surely you realized that because the users demanded, since 10.7, window resizing can be done from all corners instead of just right corners (or was it only bottom right)?  I was shocked when I discovered this 2yrs ago when I switched to Mac and started using Snow Leopard. I'm grateful that I can now resize on 4's.

  • How to change page orientation in Pages?

    Hi,
    I would like to change page orientation for Just one page inside a document.
    Say I have page 3 that I want to be landscape and not vertical, how can I do it?
    I haven't been able to find this in Pages, I found it in Word though.
    Any idea?

    The rotation in Preview is just a simple command in the .pdf. It all seems to sort itself out in printing, Acrobat has the occasional odd moment where pages are rotated from their real orientation. It is like the "cropping" in .pdf files which really doesn't cut anything off it just changes the bounding box so what you see appears to be cropped.

  • Lost reverse page orientation in page setup in CS2 going from 10.4 to 10.5

    I do a lot of hi quality printing for CDs & DVDs using Photoshop CS2. With OS 10.4.11 in page setup from the file menu, I had three icons (for landscape, portrait, and reverse portrait). Now with 10.5.8 - I have only two.
    Some programs like Preview have a box to check for "reverse page orientation" in the "page setup" menu or in the print submenu for "layout", but not CS2. (Preview prints to fill the page not to accurate size)
    Has anyone else encountered this? Is there a secret way to bring up the reverse page orientation option that I just haven't discovered?
    This really messes me up for precise double sided printing - and it makes me wish I'd stuck with 10.4.
    Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

    See my new question (July 2011) and replies re this matter.
    BDAqua came up with the answer, which is to save a reverse version in Photoshop of the images to be printed reverse, and then those images directly in the usual portrait setup in the printing dialogue. This way, I won't be dependent on having a reverse image orientation option in the printer setup. (lost for Photoshop CS2 in OS 10.5)
    Again - I appreciate the help.

  • How do I adjust the page orientation in Pages?  I want to keep the pages above the section break as portrait, and the ones below I want to change into landscape.  Is this possible?  I can only get it to be one or the other but not both.

    I want to keep the pages above the section break as portrait, and the ones below I want to change into landscape.  Is this possible?  I can only get it to be one or the other but not both.

    The work around is to do two documents, one in portrait format and one in landscape format. When finished export to Pdf. open in Preview by select both files and use Cmd + O or doubleclick. You can now in Previews thumbnail column the pages from one document into the other and then save.
    If you have created only one with i.e. all pages in portrait format but with the content for the landscape pages rotated on the pages, you can rotate the pages in Preview. Two ways to get the same result.

  • Dynamic Page Orientation in Reports 6i

    I have the following requirement. I need to print a letter that contains an attachment. The letter is two pages long and the page size letter and orientation is portrait. The attachment is legal but the orientation is landscape. So what it essentially means is that I need to change the orientation between pages. The letter is a separate repeating frame that the attachment, they are at the same level. I have set the main layout section to H=11 and W=8.5. When I layout the attachment in the layout editor and run the report I get error that the body is outside the frame etc... Meaning the size of the attachment is outside the page. I can define a different page size in the Trailer Section and it works fine if I am only printing one letter, If I enter parameters to print multiple letters, ie. from Customer A to C I get Letter A followed by letter B then Letter C then the three attachments. Problem is the letters go to a folding machine and need to be in order. I know I can do it by using text fields that contain the field name prefaced with and ampersand and then rotate the text field accordingly but this seems very cumbersome. Does anyone know of a better way to essentially create a single report that has different page orientations from page to page. Thanks in advance for any insights. Phil

    hello,
    in 6i we only support one page size per report. in 9i/10g we allow for different pagesize settings for the three sections of a report.
    thanks,
    ph.

  • Page Orientation 11x8.5 Calendar

    Finished calendar is to be in landscape mode, 11w x 8.5h. Printing firm's instructions are to separate facing-page spreads. Resulting PDF is in portrait mode as usual, but with alternating page orientations: even pages to left and odd pages facing right. Tried to compensate for this in inDesign by rotating even pages 180 degrees. That rotation did not "take", in that, after pressing 'OK" to accept rotated page, the page remained  in its original (wrong) orientation.
    Please show me how to fix this.

    Set up as 8.5 x 11 portrait facing pages. Rotate each spread view 90 degrees clockwise.

  • Auto adjustment of page orientation causes printing issues with documents that have a page width greater than its page height.

    Hi,
    Since an upgrade from Word 2003 to Word 2010, we are experiencing printing issues with certain
    documents that have a page width greater than its page height.
    In Word 2003, it was no problem to set the page width greater than the page height while setting the page orientation to "portrait".
    In Word 2010, this seems impossible: despite leaving the page orientation to "portrait", if one changes the page width/height as stated,
    Word 2010 automatically adjusts the orientation to "landscape". Resetting the orientation to "portrait" will flip the page's width/heigth settings.
    This behaviour causes printing problems: the page prints out 90° rotated.
    I do not believe this is a printer driver issue: I tried several different printer drivers, and all give the same (bad) result. Setting the printer driver's page orientation settings (before printing) makes no difference, as
    Word 2010 seems to force the page orientation settings.
    Inserting the documents 90° rotated is not an option, since it causes problems with the printing margins.
    This is very annoying, since we have to print official documents of a municipality (driver's licences).
    Is there a workaround for this issue?

  • How to read ibooks on landscape orientation one page at a time on iPhone 6 Plus

    How can I force iPhone 6 Plus to show me only one page at the time on landscape orientation on iBooks. Right now it show me one page at the time if it is in portrait orientation but as soon as I turn the phone to landscape orientation it splits and shows me two pages ie page 1 and page 2.

    I've looked everywhere I can think of to change the way that iBooks handles this and cannot find an option to change it. If you choose scrolling view then it will not show two columns but then you scroll to read rather than turning "pages."

  • Page orientation when combining multiple postscript files to a pdf file

    Hi
    I'm having problems with the orientation of my pages when I generate pdf's from multiple postscript files.
    I have 3 postscript files that need to be merged into 1 pdf, and they contain a mixture of portrait and landscape pages.
    To create the pdf, I use the following code (because i have lots and lots of pdf files to produce)...
    /prun { /mysave save def
         dup = flush
         RunFile
         clear cleardictstack
         mysave restore
    } def
    (D:/example/fileA.ps) prun
    (D:/example/fileB.ps) prun
    (D:/example/fileC.ps) prun
    ... however, when I run the above code (by saving the text file into the /in directory of a watched folder), whilst I get a pdf, the page orientation isn't right.  For some reason, the first few pages are oriented correctly, then after about page 7 everything is portrait no matter what.
    The funny thing is, when I simply double-click on one of the postscript files (eg. fileA.ps), distiller changes it to pdf and the orientation is perfect for each file separately (fileA, fileB, fileC).  Even when I run the above code for just one ps file it works.  But as soon as I put all 3 sub-files together it doesn't orient properly.
    I've tried activating and de-activating auto-rotate in the PDF settings, as well as the DSC options in the Advanced tab, and whilst these changes do affect the pdf I get when I simply double-click a certain postscript file, it seems to have no effect when I try to combine the 3 files with the code above.  I still end up with the first few pages oriented correctly, then after about page 7 everything is portrait.
    Hope someone can help.

    Ok i successfully generated my PDF files.
    Now I'm having difficulties merging them. I use a DDX file named LiveCycleInput.ddx
    What I do (everything in LiveCycle Workbench):
    1) FileReader to open the .ddx file as a document (successfully)
    2) Store the read document in a process variable (successfully)
    3) Assembler.invokeDDX with following arguments:
    Document DDX = process variable (read in 2)
    OutputResult = "AssemblerResult" processVariable which has type AssemblerResult as specified by the documentation
    Errorlog
    Everytime I run the process I get the following stacktrace in my server's logfile:
    ... 119 more
    Caused by: com.adobe.internal.pdfm.CollateralNotFoundException: DDXM_S14017: A <PDF> source document is required, but no documents were found for {PDF source="testFileDoc.doc.pdf" baseDocument="true"}.

    The .ddx file is stored in the same path as my generated .pdf files are stored.
    Content of my DDX file (full copy paste)

      <PDF source="testFileOdt.odt.pdf"/>
    </PDF>
    </DDX>
    Note that the DDX file is read from a network drive(!!) the source PDF files are in the same folder as the ddx file (hence no further path-links).
    Adding network paths to the source & result pdfs does not change a thing.
    All PDF Files apart from the result pdf fiile are present in that same folder
    I consulted the DDX reference multiple times and this is the simplest ddx that should work ... but it doesnt.
    Can anyone help me?

  • How can I use two different page orientations in the same document?

    I am trying to have both portrait and landscape page orientations in the same document.  Pages doesn't seem to like this.  Is there a way?

    I tried to comment on another thread about this same issue, but the thread was closed.
    In the other thread; however, some asked why rotating one pages was necessary, and if they knew then maybe there would be reason to create the function.
    Well, I don't know about why anyone else needs it, but for me it's for the papers I have to write for my masters program. The professors like to have the rubric attached to the bottome of the document so they easily grade and keep things organized. They of course give directions on how to easily change the orientation of the last page in Word, but not all of use Word, or even want to use Word. Maybe I need to ditch Pages and go to Word? I'd really hate to do that!
    So, come on Apple, let's get this feature added, stat!

  • How can I change a print page orientation from portrait to landscape

    How can I change the page orientation when printing from portrait to landscape?

    By setting the print size  --  ie rather than 6x4 use 4x6 - and to avoid unwanted cropping you need to crop the photo to the target ratio before printing ( you can undo the crop after printing if you do not want it to be permanent)

  • Am creating document with Pages. pages are in "portrait" orientation, but two charts at end need to be "landscape". changing the orientation for one section changes it for entire doc. can i have different orientations in Pages for different sections?

    am creating a document with Pages.  all pages using "portrait" orientation, except 2 appendices need to be in "landscape".  in Word for Windows it is possible to have different page orientations for different sections of a document.  is that possible with Pages.  Even when i put the appendices in a different section, changing the page orientation changes it for the entire doc.

    Make a separate document the size and orientation you want.
    Turn that into a pdf and add it back into the original Pages document or into the pdf from from that document.

  • Page orientation in PDF view

    Hi Experts,
    We are working on a complex book design which contains heavy tables. The book design is portroit and some tables need to be set in landscape (90 deg rotation in portroit page). The customer requirement is whenever view the PDF pages in Acrobat the landscape page need to be automatically rotated on screen for easy reading.
    Is there any option is available in InDesign (PDF setting) to set auto rotate view in PDF?

    That's not the way to actually rotate the pages.
    Highlight the page in the Pages panel that you want to rotate. Choose the Page tool. In CS5 and 5.5, the page will be highlighted. In CS6 and CC, it will have handles around it.
    On the Control Panel, change the orientation of the page (circled in red). You'll see the result in the aspect ratio of the page. Check Objects Move with Page to rotate objects on the page.

Maybe you are looking for
