Page size not auto dectected correctly when scanning

How can I set the paper format/size to a specific size when scanning? I currently only have the option "Automatic", which comes out much larger (a little wider and a lot longer) than the A4 original document that I want. If I scan using other programs, I can set it to A4 and everything works great, but I want to do everything in Acrobat 9 Pro.

HP seems to only install a WIA scan driver for me and I could not find a 64bit Win 7 TWAIN driver for this printer anywhere. Nonetheless, my driver settings are all set for A4 as default, but whenever I scan mulitple pages they all come out as 215.9mm x 355.6mm instead of 210 x 297mm (standard A4). I know this isn't the correct forum, but does anyone know where I can find a 64bit Win 7 TWAIN driver for the HP LJ M2727nf? - Not the bloatware, just the driver.
I still don't understand why I can choose A4 with every other software that scans using the same driver, but I don't have the option with Acrobat 9 Pro.
Still searching...

When printing from file, print or print preview, must set page size @ 40% to get correct printing. IE is ok only wrong on firefox!

What happens when you select a scale higher than 40%?

Pages is not saving document correctly. After saving the changes either do not appear or you can not open the file. The error is "not a valid format" I am in Pages '09 4.1 (923). I also use Parallels. Anyone having similar issues?

I'm not sure that Lion AutoSave feature apply to network servers.
I'm just sure that the Versions feature doesn't.

New preview function for iPad–error message "Multiple page sizes not supported"

When I try to use the new preview function with my iPad I get the error message "Multiple page sizes within a layout are not supported". I have a page that is 768 x 1296. I would really like to preview this folio before publishing. Any suggestions?

If you're trying to create an article that scrolls vertically, you can create a 768x1296 article in a 1024x768 folio, but you need to select a Smooth Scrolling option when you create or import the article, or in the Article Properties dialog box.

Does 'Export Relative to Page Size' NOT work in Kindle books & some other ereaders?

Hi I've been looking at this issue that has made the wheels in my head work overtime! I've made a book with pictures for the Kindle store and all the images look too small.
I've used Indesign 5.5 on a Win 7 PC. My file has multiple graphic images and I am exporting it as an epub. When exporting from Indesign you have 2 main options when exporting graphics. You can display them Relative to page size, or have them a Fixed pixel size. In age of multiple size device screens Relative to page size is the logical option because it should be able to make images on a page fill roughly the same percentage of the screen size whatever device you read it on. However I am finding that it doesn't function with all programmes.
I created an epub. Exported it with the Relative to page size option. This works great when viewed on PC with 3rd party software such as Sigil, or in iBooks for iPhone/iPad or Adobe Digital Editions ereader software.
However the same epub the images DO NOT display relative to page size when viewed with Calibre ereader software (images display far too small).
Also, I have converted that same epub (using Calibre) to a mobi. The images in the .mobi DO NOT display relative to page size when viewed with Kindle for PC, Kindle for iPad, Kindle Fire, Kindle Keyboard or Calibre.
Now. I recognise that my test is in no way universal but something is happening that is making the same file display relative to page size with some software/devices and not relative with other software devices. I've been wondering Is this a bug in the Indesign software or is it not possible on Kindle. Has anybody experienced this. And my main objective is to find out if there is a way, using Indesign or changing the css code, to make images display relative to page size on the Kindle?!
Any help, thoughts, ideas, knowledge would be appreciated!

InDesign doesn't have an export to Kindle function. It is not designed to export in the Kindle MOBI format.
There are many things which are lost when converting from EPUB to MOBI files. I'd recommend doing some reading on Elizabeth Castro's blog where she talks about some of these limitations. Also read her book "EPUB Straight to the Point for her section on converting to Kindle.

Another good place to ask is in the Mobile Read forums where many long-term eBook experts reside: http://www.mobileread.com/forums/

Choose paper source by PDF page size not working

I have a document that I printed to the Adobe PDF printer that is 36x24 and enabled "Choose paper source by PDF page size". However, when it prints the size is 16.59x11.56 (A3). Has anyone else had this? I can print it properly by disabling the option and hard setting the size in the properties. I have co-worker that has no problem with this.
I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard and so does my co-worker.

If you have not updated Acrobat, try that before you go further. Currently AA9 is at 9.5.1.

FireFox home page does not always display correctly, hence I cannot do anything

On my Dell laptop the FireFox home page does not always fully display. When this happens I cannot access several web sites and some that I can do not display correctly either. On some occasions everything works correctly.
I have 2 Dell Inspiron laptops the same except one is running Vista (the one that does not always work) and one running Windows 7 (this one has no problems).

Page does not fit on paper when printed directly to printer

Hi experts,
I have developed a form in transaction SFP, using A4 as the paper format for the master pages. If I print to spool and preview and print my form from spool using transaction SP01, the form prints nicely. If I print directly to printer using the generated function module for the form (setting parameter REQIMM to true), the page does not fit on the paper (it is cropped), and also I do not get duplex printing.
Why do I get different results when printing directly to printer as opposed to printing to spool first? How can I ensure that the form is printed correctly when printing directly to printer?
thanks!
Frank

Did you check the window settings of the Firefox desktop shortcut to see how Firefox opens?
Did you try to delete the current Firefox desktop shortcut and create a new shortcut?
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 (use the keyboard cursor keys).<br />
If that works then first close all other open Firefox windows and then close Firefox via "File > Exit/Quit" to save that setting.

How do I shrink a MS doc to a smaller page size, not just divide the document into a smaller size?

I am trying to shrink a microsoft word document from a standard page to a smaller, possibly half page, to create a printable reference booklet I plan on laminating but when I try to change the page to a different size, it doesn't shrink the document to that size, it just breaks that page into a bunch of smaller pages, breaking up whatever chart or words were on the page. Any insight?
Ex. I have a chart that looks like this on a standard letter size MS word doc page layout.
Header 1
Header 2
Header 3
Header 4
I want to change this so that is it on a landscape "half letter" MS word doc page size, shrinking the chart, and keeping it in tact.
When I change the page layout size, or try to copy paste to the above mentioned half letter doc size, the chart breaks up into multiple pieces, creating 3 or 4 "half letter" sizes, with only part of the chart on each.
Help MUCH appreciated!

You'll need to create a custom page size under "Page setup..." in Word. Word really isn't the best application for what you're trying to do, but a custom page size with custom margins should work.
EDIT: Oh, and you'll need to change the sizes on your table, obviously.

Creating a custom page size not working

Hi,
I have Pages 3.0.2 and I wanted to create an PDF for an ad that our playgroup wants to submit in a local paper. The ad needs to be 10cm x 6.2cm so I went to the Inspector dialog and the Document tab and then selected Page Setup. In the new dialog I selected Manage Custom Sizes under the Paper Size drop down and then created a new size by clicking on the + icon. This allowed me to specify a Page size of 10cm width and 6.2cm height. I selected user defined printer margins and entered 0.25 for all margins. I set a name for the page size as 100by62Ad.
All good so far, but now when I select this new custom size in the Page Size drop down I can see the page size and underneath the drop down it says 10 by 6.2cm and click on OK the Document Inspector flashes then shows the A4 sizes again.
Nothing I do seems to allow me to select the new custom size. I can select the other page sizes such as DL fine and see the new page size in the window, but my new custom size refuses to display. I have tried closing down Pages and coming back in but get the same thing. I then tried downloading another program, in this case one called "Stone Create", and selected the custom page size in that program and it worked fine. I got a small 10cm x 6.2cm document to work with.
This seems to be a bit of a bug. Has anyone else managed to work with custom page sizes?
Thanks for any assistance.
Graham

Thanks Peggy,
I tried deleting the preference file and restarting Pages but I still have the same problem with the custom page size. When I start Pages I am presented with a bunch of templates so I choose Blank then I go through my procedure to select the custom page size that I created and always end up back at an A4 document.
I have used the demo version of Stone Create to do what I needed to do with the small page size (ie. create a small ad) but it is a pain that I paid for Pages and now will need to buy something like Stone Create to do what I need. Although, that said, having used Stone Create for this little ad I must say that for the price it seems like a pretty decent program that will do a whole lot of the desktop publishing type of functions without the rather steep prices of the Adobe products. I kind of wish I had bought this program instead of Pages now.
Cheers,
Graham

Paper source by page size not doing the trick

We are using Acrobat X on Windows 7.
Are there printing presets that allow for 8.5x11 to print as is, but limits larger pages to 11x17?
We have to deliver large PDFs to a commercial printer (so we'd like to save presets to file) for them to print a "book" for us. The pages we have compiled are of various sizes: 8.5 x 11, 11 x 17, 23 x 24, etc.
Our printer has 8.5 x 11 and 11 x 17 paper only, and so we'd like to limit the largest pages in our PDF to 11 x 17. When we use Paper source by page size preset, the 23 x 24's throw an error -- they want A4 paper.
We don't want to scale the 8.x5 x 11's up to 11 x 17.
Is there a solution?

Hi Andrew,
Apple made some pretty significant changes to the way that printers function when they released 10.6.
The setting you're looking for is completely controlled by the OS.
Choose Apple > System Preferences > Print & Fax.
Click on your printer and use the drop-down menu to change the default page size for your printer.

Euro symbol not displayed/stored correctly when Application Server on AIX

Hi,
Up till now we have an BC4J/ServiceFile/UIX application (generated with JHeadstart)running on Windows OS (Application Server and Database).
The customer has decided to move the Application Server (10g) to an AIX machine.
When testing the application we find:
1) Euro symbol () is displayed en stored correctly when stored in varchar2 db-columns
2) The Euro symbol is not stored correctly when stored within a CLOB db-column AND when the AS runs on an AIX.
When the Application Server runs on a Windows-platform the euro symbol is displayed and stored correctly.
Our first guess was some NLS_LANG configuration problems on the AIX-machine. We tried however to set the NLS-LANG to "DUTCH_THE NETHERLANDS.WE8MSWIN1252". This had no visible effect.
Are there other (if any) NLS-settings which influence the way the CLOB-columns are dealt with?
When connecting to the same database from a Windows-Application Server no problems occur, thus showing that the problem is AS/OS specific.....
Our guess is that is related to BC4J and how BC4J communicates with the database.
Is this problem a known bug/issue?
Any ideas how to solve this problem?
We are using JDeveloper 9.0.3.1 (build 1107), Business Components Version is 9.0.3.10.62
Thanks,
Anthonie

Sorry, I'm having difficulty understanding what's happening here. Let me see if I get it.
You have an application that stores the euro symbol in a CLOB. When the server that handles this application is on AIX, the euro is not properly displayed in the client. When the server is on Windows, it displays properly.
Is that the issue? If so, it could be a number of things, but it's probably related to the character set differences between the two database servers.
Have you been able to reproduce this without using Business Components?

Printing a page size not in the printer's pull down menu

Hi! I have a Photsmart C6180, which I'm running on Windows 7. I'm trying to print out invitations on 5.5 x 8.5 cards, but I don't see that size in the pull down menu on the print screen. I have printed that size on that printer before, but that was with my old computer which ran XP. What gives? Does anyone have any idea how to create a custom page size for the printer?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Anne

Hi there @shirleywas
Welcome to the Community
I read about how you are trying to print on 13 x 6 paper size, and are not finding the options to select this size within your options.
After checking out the printers Specifications, I see that the printer does not support the size you are looking for specifically however, you can check out the links below to see if you are able to create a custom size to get the size you want. This may not work but could be worth a shot to try it out.
I am unsure of which operating system you're running so I have included links that will include:
Windows 7, Windows 8, and Mac OS X here: Create Custom Paper Sizes in Windows 7, Windows 8, and Mac OS X
Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 here: Re: printing on 5.5x8.0 paper

What is the output device - it is best to set scaling there, or scale while printing from Acrobat. The only means to accomplish

Print to Adobe PDF printer.
Define a page size in the Properties of the PDF Printer
