Page Thumbnail Size Issue

For some reason I'm not able to save my preferred Page Thumbnail size. The Page Thumbnails by default are too small and I always have to enlarge them.
How do I save my settings for this?

Wow, this forum is helpful.

In Pages 5, why are page thumbnails different sizes?

So I'm using 5. And I must say I think it's brilliantly done after a long period of ******** about it. I guess I'm not asking of it anything it doesn't provide and what it does it does very well - though I'm puzzled by the behavior of selecting text via the keyboard.
Anyhow, that's not my question. I'm working with a long text document. I notice that as I work the page thumbnails become different sizes. It's subtle but it's clearly intentional. I reckon it's trying to tell me something but I don't know what. Haven't been able to find any info in the manual and was wondering if any of you clever people here might know. Thanks.

This is what I meant about how rude you are though. Your answer DOESN'T EXPLAIN ANY OF THE BEHAVIOUR myself or the other person were reporting. The only assumption that I can make is that you posted here for the sole purpose of implying that we are both mistaken or stupid.
How is this helpful at all?
How do you have 32,485 points when you are obviously more concerned with insulting people than helping them out? It puts the lie to the whole idea of "Apple Support Communities."
Also, I specifically informed you that your comments were insulting and unhelpful and politely requested you not post on this thread anymore or at least until you had some kind of actual information, yet here you are. Posting again, with no content other than the implied insult.
I'm not stupid. I know what a section break is, I know what a page break is. I'm a writer who has used innumerable word processing programs over the years and have been an IT worker for 10 years now.
I have a Pages document. It has no (or only one depending on your point of view), section(s). It has page breaks only. The pagination is set to start at "1" on the first page and proceed normally to the end of the document (300 or so pages). I am using Pages 5.5.2 on a brand new iMac. I have NONE of the previous or older versions/types of Pages on my computer.
The pages thumbnails on the side, do actually CHANGE SIZE randomly as I am editing the document. These differing sizes are NOT CORRELATED WITH THE BEGINNING OR ENDING OF SECTIONS. These size changes are also NOT CORRELATED WITH THE PAGE BREAKS (in case you were about to argue the similarity of page breaks and section breaks). As I work through the document and scroll up and down editing here or there, the size of the thumbnails RANDOMLY CHANGE SIZE. Sometimes this is correlated with me working on a section, sometimes I can work on a section and no change happens at all. The thumbnails that change size often change back again when I scroll back to them later on.
So please ... Try to act like a decent human being and either help out, or go away. STOP POSTING THAT WE ARE WRONG, when you DON'T in fact know we are wrong. STOP INSULTING ME by assuming I am stupid.
Why are you even here if you don't want to actually HELP anyone?
To anyone else reading this: I am having a real bad time with this fellow who is just the most insulting person I have met for a while, however many of my posts about him are being deleted. If anyone knows (including the mods of this forum) of the proper way to REPORT or get rid of a troll/abuser like him on Apple Support Communities or a place to report his behaviour, please let me know.

Page Thumbnails not displaying in Pages Panel

Hi all,
Hopefully a quick question...I've searched through the Forum and not spotted a similar issue.
I have a user who is experiencing an unusual issue in InDesign CS6 - Page Thumbnails aren't displaying in the Pages Panel (such that the panel is completely blank - no new page icon etc.), and Swatches aren't displaying in the Swatches Panel (default swatches or new swatches - the panel is completely blank). I've checked all of the Panel Display options, and have toggled the thumbnail display size up/down, and on/off to no avail. This problem is also non-document specific, it's happening on all documents either previously saved or freshly created. I've also tried multiple workspaces and that hasn't helped.
I've also tried binning the preferences and this hasn't helped...
Any thoughts where to start? My hunch is possibly plugins not working/missing, but I'm not sure what/where to check.
Any help would be very much appreciated...
Al

I hate to have to bump an old topic, but replacing my prefs doesn't work either. Tried restarting the computer too. Nothing really works and I hate to have to waste time reinstalling when I doubt that would help at this point. (hates windows).

Fonts & Page Thumbnails Not Updating in PhotoBook

Is anyone else having issues with iPhoto '09 Photobooks, with page thumbnails going blank and font display in the main document not updating after the fonts are modified? I ported this book project over from iPhoto '08. Print to PDF looks fine but it's hard to work when you can't see your changes as you work. The only way I discovered to get the page thumbnails to come back was to make a modification on each page. Nothing I try, including quitting the app & restarting, seems to affect the font displayed in the document, but the PDF reflects the changes.
This is my 6th book - I thought I had the program down but now this... Are these issues possibly related to my PPC processor?

Linda,
I am having the same issue. When I change the font or font size in Settings, the changes are not reflected on the screen. I have not explanation for this. I've restarted both the program and the computer all to no avail. I'm stumped. I may try saving to PDF to see if the changes actually have taken place but are simply not displaying. This is my 6th book too, but my first with iLife'09.

Index file increase with no corresponding increase in block numbers or Pag file size

Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue and/or can help explain why it is happening....
I have a BSO cube fronted by a Hyperion Planning app, in version 11.1.2.1.000
The cube is in it's infancy, but already contains 24M blocks, with a PAG file size of 12GB. We expect this to grow fairly rapidly over the next 12 months or so.
After performing a simple Agg of aggregating sparse dimensions, the Index file sits at 1.6GB.
When I then perform a dense restructure, the index file reduces to 0.6GB. The PAG file remains around 12GB (a minor reduction of 0.4GB occurs). The number of blocks remains exactly the same.
If I then run the Agg script again, the number of blocks again remains exactly the same, the PAG file increases by about 0.4GB, but the index file size leaps back to 1.6GB.
If I then immediately re-run the Agg script, the # blocks still remains the same, the PAG file increases marginally (less than 0.1GB) and the Index remains exactly the same at 1.6GB.
Subsequent passes of the Agg script have the same effect - a slight increase in the PAG file only.
Performing another dense restructure reverts the Index file to 0.6GB (exactly the same number of bytes as before).
I have tried running the Aggs using parallel calcs, and also as in series (ie single thread) and get exactly the same results.
I figured there must be some kind of fragmentation happening on the Index, but can't think of a way to prove it. At all stages of the above test, the Average Clustering Ratio remains at 1.00, but I believe this just relates to the data, rather than the Index.
After a bit of research, it seems older versions of Essbase used to suffer from this Index 'leakage', but that it was fixed way before 11.1.2.1.
I also found the following thread which indicates that the Index tags may be duplicated during a calc to allow a read of the data during the calc;
http://www.network54.com/Forum/58296/thread/1038502076/1038565646/index+file+size+grows+with+same+data+-
However, even if all the Index tags are duplicated, I would expect the maximum growth of the Index file to be 100%, right? But I am getting more than 160% growth (1.6GB / 0.6GB).
And what I haven't mentioned is that I am only aggregating a subset of the database, as my Agg script fixes on only certain members of my non-aggregating sparse dimensions (ie only 1 Scenario & Version)
The Index file growth in itself is not a problem. But the knock-on effect is that calc times increase - if I run back-to-back Aggs as above, the 2nd Agg calc takes 20% longer than the 1st. And with the expected growth of the model, this will likely get much worse.
Anyone have any explanation as to what is occurring, and how to prevent it...?
Happy to add any other details that might help with troubleshooting, but thought I'd see if I get any bites first.
The only other thing I think worth pointing out at this stage is that we have made the cube Direct I/O for performance reasons. I don't have much prior exposure to Direct I/O so don't know whether this could be contributing to the problem.
Thanks for reading.

I haven't tried Direct I/O for quite a while, but I never got it to work properly. Not exactly the same issue that you have, but it would spawn tons of .pag files in the past. You might try duplicating your cube, changing it to buffered I/O, and run the same processes and see if it does the same thing.

Paper Size issues with CreatePDF Desktop Printer

Are there any known paper size issues with PDFs created using Acrobat.com's CreatePDF Desktop Printer?
I've performed limited testing with a trial subscription, in preparation for a rollout to several clients.
Standard paper size in this country is A4, not Letter. The desktop printer was created manually on a Windows XP system following the instructions in document cpsid_86984. MS Word was then used to print a Word document to the virtual printer. Paper Size in Word's Page Setup was correctly set to A4. However the resultant PDF file was Letter size, causing the top of each page to be truncated.
I then looked at the Properties of the printer, and found that it was using an "HP Color LaserJet PS" driver (self-chosen by the printer install procedure). Its Paper Size was also set to A4. Word does override some printer driver settings, but in this case both the application and the printer were set to A4, so there should have been no issue.
On a hunch, I then changed the CreatePDF printer driver to a Xerox Phaser, as suggested in the above Adobe document for other versions of Windows. (Couldn't find the recommended "Xerox Phaser 6120 PS", so chose the 1235 PS model instead.) After confirming that it too was set for A4, I repeated the test using the same Word document. This time the result was fine.
While I seem to have solved the issue on this occasion, I have not been able to do sufficient testing with a 5-PDF trial, and wish to avoid similar problems with the future live users, all of which use Word and A4 paper. Any information or recommendations would be appreciated. Also, is there any information available on the service's sensitivity to different printer drivers used with the CreatePDF's printer definition? And can we assume that the alternative "Upload and Convert" procedure correctly selects output paper size from the settings of an uploaded document?
PS - The newly-revised doc cpsid_86984 still seems to need further revising. Vista and Windows 7 instructions have now been split. I tried the new Vista instructions on a Vista SP2 PC and found that step 6 appears to be out of place - there was no provision to enter Adobe ID and password at this stage. It appears that, as with XP and Win7, one must configure the printer after it is installed (and not just if changing the ID or password, as stated in the document).

Thank you, Rebecca.
The plot thickens a little, given that it was the same unaltered Word document that first created a letter-size PDF, but correctly created an A4-size PDF after the driver was changed from the HP Color Laser PS to a Xerox Phaser. I thought that the answer may lie in your comment that "it'll get complicated if there is a particular driver selected in the process of manually installing the PDF desktop printer". But that HP driver was not (consciously) selected - it became part of the printer definition when the manual install instructions were followed.
However I haven't yet had a chance to try a different XP system, and given that you haven't been able to reproduce the issue (thank you for trying), I will assume for the time being that it might have been a spurious problem that won't recur. I'll take your point about using the installer, though when the opportunity arises I might try to satisfy my cursed curiosity by experimenting further with the manual install. If I come up with anything of interest, I'll post again.

Acrobat 9 Pro Watermarks showing on Page thumbnails

I am seeing an issue with Acrobat, that did not appear for us, prior to version 9.
We receive PDF files and add Security and Watermarks to them. The Watermarks are set to appear on all pages only when printed.
However, in Acrobat 9, the watermarks show on the Page thumbnails (which we do not want). They do not show on the actual pages when viewed on screen (which is correct) and the Watermark does appear when the page is printed (which is correct).
The original file is being supplied to us in an Acrobat 9 format. We are doing our work in Acrobat 9. We are not going backward in versions at any step. We have tried going to older versions of Acrobat to solve the problem, with no success. It appears that once the file is created or saved in Acrobat 9, this issue appears.
Why is the watermark appearing on the thumbnail in version 9, when pervious versions did not have this? Has anyone else encountered this, even with previous versions? Suggestions?

Hi,
Played with the PDF at the link's end.
Both the page magnification value and the page display setting affect what is viewed by a Bookmark.
Whatever these variables had set when you created the Bookmark from the newly created named destination
(or from selected page content) will determine what is displayed by the Bookmark.
For a given page display, the page magnification becomes the significant variable.
With that said, using a Named Destination will call for additional editing.
(neglected to mention this before )
Access a Bookmark's Properties.
Open the Actions tab.
Select the Action shown in the bottom 'window'.
I suspect you'll see a Page number where you expected a Named Destination.
Selecte Edit. Tick "Use Named Destination".
Click "Browse".
Select appropriate named destination from the list.
OK > OK > OK
Be well...

PDF size issues in PSE

I'm having a problem with PSE 11 saving my files in a size too large for transmission by email even when I use the "low" quality option. I have to send files for commerical ads for review to clients via email and even set at "low" for an 8.5 x 11 page the size of the file is 25mg as opposed to 33.7 for "high". The jpg file set a high quality is only 4mg. Is there an issue with the PDF format on PSE 11 (didn't have this problem until I upgraded)?

I tired saving as pdf one of my sample images and it does create a huge file compared to the original file (relatively speaking) so this is not the best way to create a pdf file.
Another way is to use third party FREE software such asBullzip that can create pdf files by printing your images/documents to a odf file.
Or you could paste the image in Microsoft Word (office 2007, 2010, 2013) and save as PDF file.
Or you could get Adobe Acrobat Full version but this costs money.
If you are doing lots of pdf files then getting Bullzip is the way forward IMHO.
Sorry, there is no easy solution I can think of.

Thumbnail size when uploading pics to Websites

Ok, I've asked this question on several sites with no luck and getting a little frustrated. When attempting to load photos from file on my local harddrive to facebook, 500px, flickr, email, etc. the the thumbnails are fixed in size. The option to enlarge or reduce them is not available in any viewing mode. This only happens when attempting to upload them to a third party website. I've also tried both Safari and Chrome, I've adjusted thumbnail size in "finder" and they simply revert back to the fixed size when you open the upload window. Does anyone know the fix for this? Yes, you could use cover flow, but thats a work around at best and does not solve my problem of not being able to adjust thumbnail size at all in the upload window. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I can only see album pictures on Facebook in thumbnail size, when I open the picture it will not load. I can open these pictures on other computers but not mine.

I cant open album pictures on facebook on my computer, but i can on others. I can see pictures thumbnail size, so I can still see pictures, but when I go to open them to see them full size it will not load or show up.

Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions - See [[Options window - Content panel]]
A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (Site Identification icon) on the left side of the location bar. 
A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info"). 
Open the Media tab of the "Page Info" window. 
Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key. 
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

Pages thumbnail display question

A rather curious thing happens every once in a while when I open various Pages docs that are in progress.
On the View icon in the Toolbar I have "Page Thumbnails" checked on these documents. However, for no particular reason, these documents open with reduces size thumbnails and I have to manually expand the thumbnail pane until they're the size I desire. The documents are page layouts and generally contain a combination of text blocks, photographs and other images, and tables.
There doesn't seem to be a prefs option as this is a document-specific parameter. It's annoying as can be and I'd sure like to learn how to make the thumbnail panel remain the same width from one work session to the next.
Pages version 4.3 build 1048 on OSX 10.8.4.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

Jerry,
This is one of those "Now why didn't I think of that?" simple yet effective tips. Since my work is generally periodical in nature (monthly reports, newsletters, etc) I have been saving the current month (2013_06 newsletter) as the next month's (2013_07 newsletter) as boilerplate, revising and adding as needed.
I'll start saving as a template and see how that goes.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Working with large tables - thumbnail size

Hi,
I'm working with some oversized tables in IBA. What I usually do is make the table as needed and then use the "Uses thumbnail on page" option in the Layout section of the inspector and adjust the thumbnail size to fit the page as needed. What happened this time, that after the document has been closed and reopened, some tables reset the thumbnail size back to default, which is small. I can't seem to find what's causing this, one table is not behaving like that, although it's been done using the same method. Anyone else ran into the same thing? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Why don't you use a stored proc?
Why are you ordering it?
Should I take partial entries in a loop? Yep. Because software isn't perfect. No point in attempting to process the universe when you know it will fail sometime and it is easier to handle smaller failures than large ones (and you won't have to redo everything.)

Our vendor Captivates are now displaying "thumbnail" size in newer browsers like IE11, Chrome. Why?

Hi,
We're using some 100+ Captivate tutorials supplied by a vendor. Our user base until recently was all IE8, IE9 browsers, and the Captivates displayed without trouble. Now we have users with IE11 and Google Chrome trying to launch these Captivates (using the .htm in the launch url) and the Captivates display in tiny, unreadable thumbnail size. We've found a workaround in that we can launch the Captivate by pointing the URL at the .swf file instead, and they display normal size. But before we change 100+ URLs and bring on who know what other problems... why is this happening? Is there a browser setting we can change instead? What do we lose launching with the swf instead of the htm? Thanks!

Add this just above the </head> tag in the html page as see what happens.

Thumbnail size images are not loading

On some sites such as Myspace or Facebook or even the Images search on Yahoo, the thumbnail size do not load up at all. The browser will take longer than usual to load the page but when it finishes loading the images show up as a box with a question mark.
Can somebody tell me what I can do to prevent this from happening? It's becoming really frustrating when I do searches.

I've had this problem for the entire year that I've had my Mac so far. I thought it was a normal thing until I used Safari on a few other Macs. Everything else on my Mini is nice and fast. The same pages render in blazing speeds when I use Firefox or Opera when compared to Safari. Anyone have a solution?

Photos convert to thumbnail size when printing

I am trying to print on an EPSON R300. When printing from iPhoto I select the size/layout that I want, but when I go to preview and/or print it doesn't not fill the page. Everything is getting downsized to "thumbnail" size. I've tried everything I can think of, including reinstalling the printing drivers, nothing is working. HELP!!!!

2Xclone:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Just to be sure we're on the same page here's the workflow I use to get a borderless 4x6:
Steps for printing 4 x 6 prints from iPhoto:
<li crop the photo to 4 x 6 beforehand in iPhoto's edit window.</li>
in Page Setup select your printer, proper page orientation and paper size, i.e. 4x6 or 4x6 borderless
click once on the picture you want to print to make sure it's selected.
now click on the Print button in iPhoto.
in the iPhoto print window, select your printer again, select Style = "Standard Prints", Size= 4x6 and click on One photo per page.
click on the Print button.
Is that how you're going about it?
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, 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.
