Page setup to print

Hi and thanks for your help.
I have opened my file.acsm, and it looks good. I go to print it. it seems to be cutting off part of each page. I can see it fine in digital editions, but how do I change the printing so it prints the whole page. it seems to be expanding it to print the page top to bottom, but somehow not taking account of the width, and thus us cutting off the right inch or so of the page. it goes without saying that my printer is perfect, and I don't have this problem with printing from adobe acrobat normally.
thanks for your help.

Can't print: "Before you can perform print-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document,

Hello,
I have searched these forums but have not found a solution to my problem.
I recently purchased an IOGear USB Print Server (print server only, not USB device server). I was having issues installing and followed a Microsoft support document to try and resolve the issue. It had me remove some entries from the registry.
Hours later, I was able to get the printer installed and working, but I do not know if it was a result of the registry tweak. But now that it has been installed, I cannot get anything to print from Acrobat Reader (I have tried 7.0 and 8.1.1). I get the following error message:
"Before you can perform print-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document, you need to install a printer."
Is there something I should check in the registry to make sure that it will work? I do know for sure that it was working when it was just the printer and drivers installed, it only happened after running the print server setup. I have already tried removing the printers and drivers from the system.
Thanks,
Braden

I have a problem similar to those posted here, with one difference. With my printers newly installed, regardless of which one is selected as the default, when I try to print from Adobe Reader I receive the error message we're talking about : "Before you can perform a print related task...."
Here's the fun part.
If I click OK on the message, ALL MY PRINTERS GET DELETED and, I get the windows message that "Spooler subsystem app has encountered a problem and needs to close"! If instead of clicking OK I switch to Task Manager and end Adobe, I'm fine and can print from other programs.
I can "reset" the problem by deleting the files in C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Printers and C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Drivers\w32x86, restarting the machine, and deleting then reinstalling the printers (which show up again after the restart).
BUT, if I try to print from Adobe Reader again, I get the same cycle of problems.
I am running Windows Vista and Adobe Reader 8.1

Hi,
I got the next error message for a pdf document: “Before you can perform print-related tasks such as page setup or printing a document, you need to install a printer"
Info:
- version: 10.1.3
- Default printer: Epson SX110 Series

thanks for quick solution

Hi,
My printer is correctly installed. I can print other pdf documents without any problem (even the same document if the security settings are not set).

How can I change the default page setup for printing messages in Apple Mac Version 4.6 (1085)

How can I change the default page setup for printing messages in Apple Mac Version 4.6 (1085)

As soon as I posted, Ifigured this one out on my own by going into user settings and changing the default there. Then I was able to delete the default @mac account. Thanks!

Programmatically Set Page Setup when printing with Internet Explorer?

Hello,
I'm using the LabVIEW 7.1 Print HTML Report VIs.
However, I'd like to change the default margings and footer and headres of Microsoft internet explorer which is used to do the actual printing.
I tried to find a way using the functionality of IWebBrowser2 (Wich is actaully used by the original VIs). It seems I have to use OLECMDID_GETPRINTTEMPLATE and pass a structure of the type ITemplatePrinter.
How can this be done - or is there a more simple way to do this?
Thanx,
Rainer

I'm looking for the same features. Ideally you would be able to send the page setup parameters to IE programatically but so far I've had no luck doing that or finding any reference on how it would be done. The closest thing I've seen is the print templates, but I am still unsure how those would be implemented exactly. I did find this reference for the template which seems fairly descriptive:

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.

CS3 page setup: in print dialog box???

I am confused about the page setup in CS3. Coming from Illustr. 10 if I started a drawing in landscape mode and wanted to change into portrait mode I had to change the document and page setup boxes. Now in CS3 there is only a document setup, the page setup is in the print dialog box. Can someone share some light on this?
Thanks.
Ulrich

I think the process is now as it always should have been. It was crazy always having to go to two different dialog boxes just to change one setting. The thinking here is that Illustrator is now smart enough to know to automatically adjust the Page Setup settings for you -- if you rotate the document from Landscape to Portrait for example, AI should be able to figure out on its own that you want it to print that was as well.
The main point here is that Page Setup options aren't needed much anymore -- most of the options are handled directly within Illustrator's Print dialog (and can hence be saved in Print Presets, etc).

Possible bug: After using page setup in print preview it clears the preview screen and locks up the window (no visible widgets). I have to close the window from the title bar and start the print over.

On any page, select "Print->Print Preview". Once in the preview window, use the menu to select "Print->Page Setup". In the setup dialog box, click on the "Margins & Header/Footer". Modify some headers and footers. Then click on OK.
The preview window will either be cleared or become unresponsive. The only way to proceed is to close the preview window using the Windows close button in the top right hand corner. I must then start my printing over.
I found that I can work around this by first changing the page setup BEFORE going to print preview. However, this looks like a bug and it should be investigated and fixed.

Both printers? Or just the HP Photosmart C3100 series printer?

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.

Crystal crashes when using print or page setup

I am using Crystal Reports 2008 on Windows VISTA Business OS (32 Bit). Crystal crashes everytime I hit the page setup or print. Any suggestions would be helpful. I am trying to setup a landscape report but cannot even get into the page settings.

Hi,
Please try with this:
Run a command prompt as administrator. From the start menu, select "All Programs", then "Accessories" and right-click on the "Command Prompt" shortcut and choose "Run As Administrator". From here you can use the following command to disable Data Execution Prevention (DEP) with the following command:
bcdedit.exe /set nx AlwaysOff
Keeping your command prompt open, run your setup or other process being stopped by DEP. Then, to turn it back on again, do the same and run the following:
bcdedit.exe /set nx AlwaysOn
Now try again.

Shweta

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?

Printing, including all day events... & changing page setup

I publish, for print, our school district calendar.
can I:
make all day events print, completely? and not just the first line?
change the page setup? (Printing horizontially... one month 1/2 on one page, the 2nd 1/2 on the other?)
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

I am in the IT department and a fellow coworker is having the same issue. Unfortunely, I had to tell him to use Entourage for now, because when you print a month view from there it will expand all day events. I wish Apple had a fix for this, as it used to print just fine in 10.3 Panther.
Does anyone have a fix?

In Pages '09, OSX 10.8 how do I print multiple pages on one sheet of paper. (I used to be able to do this in earlier versions via the "page setup" menu.

Forget it. The answer is that the multiple page per page setup comes up in the printing menu. (When you do command-P)

Click on the Show Details button in the Print dialog.
Whenever options seem to disappear, have a look around and explore what is available. Particular when they have what appears to be relevent labels.

Is it possible to have different tabs print with different page setups.

I would like to use specific page setup parameters (under the File menu) for printing from a particular web site, but those parameters do not work well for printing from other web sites. I would like to be able to specify different page setup parameters for each open tab. Is this possible?

That might be possible via a GreaseMonkey user script, by setting the '''@include''' address to a specific domain.
http://wiki.greasespot.net/User_script
This is an example of a script I found a few years ago to bypass a fault in Firefox when printing the Courier font.
<pre><nowiki>// ==UserScript==
// @name Fix Courier Bug
// @namespace http://userscripts.org
// @description Replaces "Courier" with "Courier New" font
// @author Dan
// @include *
// ==/UserScript==
var elementList = document.getElementsByTagName('*');
for (var i = elementList.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
var elementItem = elementList[i];
var ff = getComputedStyle(elementItem, '').fontFamily;
var oldff=ff;
ff = ff.replace('Courier New', '1234567890qwertyFONT');
ff = ff.replace('Courier', 'Courier New');
ff = ff.replace('1234567890qwertyFONT','Courier New');
elementItem.style.fontFamily = ff; </nowiki></pre>
Sorry, I can't help you with writing a script.
