Page Setup And Orientation Seems Crazy to do Such Simple Task !

i am evaluating crystal reports 2008 , i'm having created a custom paper size width = 8 inch and height = 6 inches using windows forms in printers and faxes . but crystal report changes my report to landscape ??? i want to print it in portrait.
I have observed that when the width is greater than height it automatically changes to landscape mode ? why this extra smartness when we don't need it and the problem goes critical when printing labels, version CRYSTAL REPORTS 9 has perfect page setup setting ?
can any 1 help me to work around this issue, would be thankfull

I suspect you've created a standard report and are "using it" as a label report.
Go to File | New | Mailing Label Report | choose the fields and once the datasource, tables, fields are chosen you can then choose TYPE and size of label (Avery labels sizes/types are provided) and set up the gaps between the labels, page margines, etc.

I have a DLINK 524 150 and bought recently an airport express to extend my WIFI network. I tried by many ways to get the connection but it was impossibble. If possible, what is the necessary setup and orientation I have to follow ?

In have a DLINK 524 and bought recently (march/2013) an airport express to extend my WI-Fi network. I triedmany ways to get the connection but it was impossible. Is really possible to get this connection ? If it is, what is the necessary setup and orientations that I have to follow ?
Thanks

Apple designed their "extend" feature as a proprietary function to work with other Apple routers, so it's extremely unlikely that the AirPort Express would be able to wirelessly extend your D-Link network.
If you can connect the AirPort Express to the D-Link router using a wired Ethernet connection, the Express can likely be configured to provide more wireless coverage that way.

Printing to PDF: prints the wrong page size and orientation

I am trying to print a simple 60 page document composed of 8 x 11 inch pages to a pdf. I want the pdf in spreads, so that 2 8x11 inch pages in portrait orientation will be next to each other as a spread. Each time I try to print, the pdf comes out in the wrong orientation or the wrong size or both. When I export it to a pdf, it is the right orientation and page size, but the file size is way too large. So how do I fix this annoying problem? I have tried adjusting the print setup but it still won't print right. This seems like a simple operation, but indesign has been giving me trouble with this for weeks. I should mention I'm using CC. Thank you.

Go to the AdminUI ( http://<servername>:<port>/adminui ), and to Services, PDF Generator. Pick File Type Settings, and click on the Standard entry. If you pop open the HTML to PDF section, you can edit the size, margins, orientation, headings and footers, site recursion, and pdf initial view settings. Save your settings as a new Filetype (you can make as many as you want), and pass the name the filetype as the second parameter to the call to the htmlToPDF method on the web service client. http://livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/es/sdkHelp/programmer/javadoc/com/adobe/livecycle/g eneratepdf/client/GeneratePdfServiceClient.html I am unfamiliar with interacting directly with the web services via SOAP, so if you are not using the pre-built GeneratePdfServiceClient supplied by Adobe and this information does not solve your issue you will need to see if anybody else can help. I imagine that there is a similar String parameter where you place the Filetype name defined in the AdminUI. (edit: I should mention, the GeneratePdf service is a part of PDF Generator ES, not Output ES, so you may have better luck in the general Livecycle ES forum)

I changed my margins in page setup and now I cannot see page setup, a print preview, or print, what do I do?

I changed left and right margins to .5 thinking they were in inches and closed the page setup screen the next time I tried to print all I saw was a blank page or no page depending on zoom / shrink to fit ratio set. When I go to page setup all I get is a new window that is transparent in the text area and extends off the right side of the screen. I have to right click and select close to close it as I do not see the standard minimize, maximize, and close buttons. I do not want to reset defaults as I have changed many settings and do not remember all the settings I have changed. I do have an older copy of my firefox profile in a previous user profile of mine on this machine. Is there an easy way to reset the page setup settings?
What do I do?
PS. I am using Firefox 29 on a XP Pro machine slated for upgrade to windows 7 Pro.

Sorry I have been away from this system forr a while. when I turned it on this morning and launched Firefox it upgraded me to version 31.0.
Attached are three Png files, one is what happens if I try to print to do a print preview. If I try to print a web page it prints the same thing.
The other file is what comes up when I click on page setup. It opens a very wide window that is a copy of the web page that was there when page setup was clicked on.
The Third is what happens to the above page setup window when I drag the window to the left.

Page setup and printing

Hello all,
I am currently working on a visual presentation and have a question regarding the printing of my work.
The project is a 6 page booklet that conveys the tone and story points of a film that I'm working on. What I've done is created the 6 documents in photoshop (11in Wide, 8.5in Tall) and placed them into into InDesign. The InDesign page set up matches the dimensions of the psd file (11in Wide, 8.5in Tall). My bleeds are .5in all around. I don't have a great printer so what I want to do is save the document as a PDF and bring that PDF some place to have it professionally printed on a high grade printer. As I mentioned before my page set up dimensions are 11in wide and 8.5in tall, will I need to alter my page set up dimensions to fit the dimensions of the paper size I choose at the print? Also, are there any specific settings I should pay attention to when exporting the PDF so that the printing store doesn't run into any problems?
Thanks so much.
Rylenol

The page size would need to be over-sized at 11x17 and trimmed down in the case of a bleed.
This is one reason why I said to check with the printer. The printer may not need the file setup as spreads depending on how the booklet will be bound.
That and 1/2" bleed seems a bit much but then again it depends on the printer. The cover pages may need to be larger to accommodate for the binding.
Again check with the printer 1st in order to save yourself some time.

IPhoto6, Page Setup and Preview

Trying to print from iPhoto6 and have difficulties...
I believe I have the latest driver for the PSC1600
File->Page Set Up: check any Orientation
File-> Print-> Print Preview: always shows the picture in landscape.
What am I doing wrong here and how can I change the orientation of the picture?

Jan:
For what it's worth here's a way to generate a 2200 x 1700 pixel at 200 dip file for each page in the book and then you can print them up separately as a regular photos. See the first part of Tutorial #6. I find it much easier to work with one page at a time than having to go thru a large pdf file.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Why is the "From:" field being changed in Mac Mail. I have multiple gmail accounts setup and it seems to change the "FROM" field even though I've selected which account to use to send the email.

So
I've got multiple gmail accounts setup in Mac Mail.
Somtimes when I send or forward emails, it uses the wrong FROM field even though I'm declaring
specifically which account to use.
This becomes apparent when the person replies to my message and it goes to the wrong account

Check you accounts in Mail and make sure each account has the correct outgoing server address. Check the box to use only that server.
Second, go to the gmail website and in settings under the account tab, make sure you have the correct settings for replying to messages.

Pages and page setup problems

I love my mac and love pages but sometimes I wanna chuck it out the window.
Here is why - I have been working on my thesis and was inserting some table in the pages doc. No problem. Except that the tables are in horizontal layout/orientation while the doc is in vertical layout/orientation so the table doesnt fit in. Now on a PC I would to to page setup and change the page layout/orientation for that page only except it seems it doesnt work here. I change the layout/orientation for all pages or no pages. Same thing is if I want to have an envelope and a letter in the same document. Same thing in Word for mac. Which is kind of a problem as it means I have to create a template on my PC and then move it to my mac to work.
Am I missing something silly? Is there a trick I can do?

Sparky,
Creating a template in Word in an attempt to work around a program design choice in Pages would be a very bad option, with little chance of success.
A landscape page is a portrait page with the content rotated 90 degrees. I think that the only things in your Pages job that can't be rotated are the Header and Footer fields, and those probably are best left alone in this case anyway. So, here's the trick. Insert a table, make sure that it is Floating, not Inline, and then rotate it 90 degrees and adjust it's position on the page. You can edit the table either before or after you rotate it.
Similarly, envelopes could be included in the document by rotating text fields, but it's not clear to me what purpose it would serve since it would complicate printing.

Page Setup Issue with InDesign CS3 and Xerox DC240 w/ external Fiery

Running on OS 10.4.11
Printing to Xerox DC2400 w/ External Fiery (driver v1.1 v3016.102)
Application InDesign CS3 v. 5.0.2
When I send a document in CS3 to print, I have to constantly go to the page setup and select the proper paper size and orientation in order to print properly. In CS2, I was able to set all this by simply going to the Setup window and designating my paper size and orientation there. Does anyone have the same or similar issue? Were you able to resolve it? All suggestions are welcomed. I have contacted Xerox and they say that this is not an issue with their driver, they say that this is an application level issue!!
Thank you.

I think I may have figured it out by trial and error. In the Pages palette, there's an option in the pulldown called "Panel Options". I set both sizes to "Small" and turned off "Thumbnails". Seems to have worked - knock wood. Presumably when thumbnails is turned on, InDesign is updating the contents of the document AND the pages palette thumbnail simultaneously. Anyway, that seems to have fixed it. Just wanted to post this solution FYI for anyone else who may be having this problem.

The page setup has changed to 'portrait' and Page Setup will not change it back to landscape.

When I switched on this morning Adobe Reader installed an update and recommended removing Realplayer. I looked up how to do this but it doesn't seem to be on my machine. When I started Firefox the page setup had changed to portrait. Going into 'PAGE SETUP' and changing the setting to landscape had no effect.

Try to reset the print prefs on the about:config page via the right-click context menu.

Exporting and Printing Page Setup is Different to Screen

Hi All hope someone can help.
I've created a document in Pages and all the formatting is fine on the screen and if I view the file in quick view but if I print or convert to PDF it seems to about 70% of full size with a huge margin in the left, top and bottom.
I"ve triple checked my page setup and all is fine and as the file looks good in quick view I'm wondering if something is wrong when it exports. I have no idea where to go from here.
All help graciously received.

Do you have the Comment field on? That is the only way I can reproduce the described behavior.

CR 2008 SP2 - Slow to open Print Dialog or Page Setup Dialog (And SP3+)

When I am designing my report in CR 2008 SP2 and select either Page Setup or Print from the File menu, Crystal Reports stops responding for about 5 minutes and then the dialog box will open. I created a blank report and did not add anything to it and this continues to happen. The program operates at normal speed otherwise. It is quick to startup and load reports. Any ideas on why this is so slow?
Update: I have also tried checking the box in page setup that says No Printer but the problem persists.
Update 2: I have updated from SP2 -> SP3 -> FP 3.1 -> FP 3.2 -> FP 3.3, and after each upgrade I tried both Print and Page Setup and it continued to exhibit the same slowness as in SP2.
Thanks,
Paul

Hi Ashwini,
I just completed updating my OS and I am still experiencing the behavior. I have applied every update available through Windows Update. I just reformatted my computer two days ago so this is a pretty fresh install.
This problem existed before my reformat as well however. A few months ago, Crystal did not have this slow issue when opening either Print or Page Setup dialogs. About a month ago these two dialog boxes just became very slow. I hoped reformatting would get rid of this issue but it persists. I also experience this slowness on a different computer that I am using.
One idea I just tried is to shutdown the Print Spooler service in Windows. The print dialog won't open at all but it does quickly tell me Warning: No Printer is installed on this system. The Page Setup dialog on the other hand opens immediately, however, the Printer Options group box is totally greyed out. This "fix" is of course no good to me since I cannot print, but perhaps it narrows down the issue to something regarding printing and/or printers?

Under "Basic" in the "Printer Settings" of the Print menu, the dropdown menus for both "Page Setup: Sheet" and "Media Type" are frozen.

Frozen selections: I'm working from my Intel iMac trying to print (from both Aperture and Photoshop CS5) to my new Epson 4900 printer. When the Print menu comes up, under the "Basic" section of the "Printer Settings" the dropdown menus for both "Page Setup" and "Media Type" won't activate. All other options and selections work fine. Just these 2 are not functioning. What's up with that??

Here we are 15 months later and Microsoft Excel 2013 has the SAME ERROR
If one chooses:
Print Preview
Page Setup
Sheet
Then the print area and print titles (Rows to repeat at top, columns to repeat at top)
are all grayed out and cannot be selected.
If, however, I choose the
page layout bar and click print titles then
everything works fine.
Thanks for the solution!!!

IE9 Page Setup Not Pulling from LaserJet P1102 Preferences

I am running IE9 on Windows 7 Home Premium with a LaserJet P1102 printer attached. Software and drivers are all current. I also have an Epson SX218 and Adobe Distiller 8 installed as printers.
When the Epson printer is set as the default, any changes I make to the printing preferences of that printer appear in the IE9 Page Setup, including the paper size -- especially the paper size (we use A4 paper here, not Letter), and orientation.
The same is true for Adobe 8 PDF and Adobe 8 PDF Converter -- preferences pass right through to IE9 Page Setup when either are set as the default.
When the HP LaserJet P1102 is set as the default, IE9 defaults to "Letter" and "Portait".
I have tried every possible configuration -- removing all printers, reinstalling just one, reinstalling all, reinstalling in a different order, changing the defaults, changing the preferences, warm booting, cold booting, different computers, and even additional printers from Canon and Epson -- and the results are always the same.
There is something about the HP LaserJet P1102 drivers -- and possibly other drivers -- that is not updating the registry correctly for IE9 to read it and it is therefore falling back to some sort of defaults (which I can't find, either).
It is very annoying that even when I have the HP LaserJet P1102 set as the default and the printing preferences set to A4, I still have to go into IE9 Page Setup and change the paper size to A4 in order to get the output to print correctly.
As a note, I believe the same problem may exist with Word 2007 -- it only prints correctly to A4 when the Epson printer is either the destination or the default. If the P1102 is the default and A4 is the preference AND I print to it from an A4 document to A4 paper, it is automatically shrunk down as if to be fitting on Letter-sized paper. If I set the Epson as the default with A4 paper as the preference and then select the P1102 as the destination with A4 paper, everything prints fine.
I would leave the Epson as the default with A4 as the preferred paper -- which would solve the problem, only we use the Epson for printing on Letter-size labels sheets and don't want to have to constantly change the print settings.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can correct this problem with the HP driver so that printing preferences from the P1102 will properly populate page setup in IE9 (and possibly Word 2007)?

Tom, when you are printing are you setting the printing preferences to match what you are wanting the printer to do? This would be done through Devices and Printers by right clicking on the printer and changing the defaults through Printing Preferences.
Beyond this, if you have already set this up beforehand, the browser you are using might not be correctly interpreting the information and may be sending band data to your machine. I would recommend "uninstalling" IE9 which will replace it with IE8 which has better compatibility with devices and programs.
Let me know! And happy New Year!
