Page tiling help in new Illustrator

I'm trying to set up page tiling in the new Illustrator CC and I'm unable to figur it out. Nor can I find anything online. Help!

Change Scaling: to tile full pages in the general print options. Give some overlap, as most printers cannto print to the edge of the paper.

Software? See if you can get it removed with some anti-malware tools. Spybot, AVG, Kapersky, et cetera...
If you know the name of the program, you could search the registry for any instance of that name and --be CAREFUL--delete them.
And I have to ask: Did you go back to Firefox after uninstalling this program and reset the "when I open a new tab..." setting? What about your home page?

Expand page width without creating new section- please help!

When I expand the width of my page, iWeb creates a new section instead of expanding my content. Does anyone know how to fix this?? Thank you!

Here is a visual refferance. The first tab of the inspector is the "page inspector" then click Layout then adjust page width to fit your needs

Multi page tiling grayed out?

So I'm trying to save a lot of work recombining individual pages by doing a project as 1 sheet in illustrator (CS3) and then printing it to a PDF. But, I cannot click the Create Multi-page PDF from Page Tiles option in the General section like the instructions say to, because it is grayed out. Is there some overarching setting that I need to reinstall, or am I missing something?
I've also tried just printing to the PDF and that just causes Illustrator to crash.
Thanks,
Eric

There's your problem. You only have one tile. The document is not set up for tile printing.
Page Tiling is a print setting. It tells the printer to print the document in tiles that are the size of your supposed media (the size of the sheets you ostensibly have loaded in the printer).
Just for clarity do this:
1. Assume you want to build a document that will export as a PDF with 16 vertical letter-size pages. File>New.
2. In Document setup, set the height to 11" and width to 8.5". But then key in "*2" after the 11 and key in "*8" after the 8.5. Click outside the field and you'll see the Artboard size change to 22" x 68". Click OK.
3. View>Show Page Tiling. You'll only see one page tile.
4. File>Print>General pane. Select Adobe PDF as the "printer". Set Media size to Custom, portrait, width 8.5", height 11".
5. Click Setup to switch to the Setup pane. Select Tile Full Pages from the Tiling popup. Click Done.
You'll now see a 22" x 68" Artboard with 16 numbered Page Tiles. If you Save A Copy as PDF, you'll have the option to Save Tiles as Separate Pages.

Tiling a pdf in Illustrator

Hello all,
I have a big poster to print (2.5m x 3 m) into several A0 pages which I believe is called tiling. I would like to export
the tiles as a multi page pdf. I used the tiling option on the print dialog box but Adobe took off the option "save multiple page
pdf with page tiling" from the save as pdf option. I understand that it is not needed since we can create a multi page
pdf with different artboards but I want the artboards to be placed automatically with some consistent overlap all over the
poster. Is there a way to do it using artboards or any other tools from illustrator? I have access to the full creative suite so
I can use any other adobe cs products (I couldn't find a way with acrobat pro).
Cheers

Yes you can use negative numbers in the New Document dialog. If you know how many pages it will take, just enter that number in the number of artboards box and suggest the arrangement. Enter a negative number in the Spacing box. Here's an example of 4 US letter pages ganged on one work area> The double lines are the overlap. When you export the PDF and choose Multipage PDF make sure the Use Artboards is checked in the save box.

Page Tiling is Way Off -- fixable?

I'm running Illustrator CS3 (13.0.2) under an evaluation copy of Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit (build 7100) and the page tiling for my Photosmart printer is way off and mighty peculiar to boot. A "new" file may show the correct margins, but once I've gone into "print," and back to the file, the tiling shows 1/4" all around, as for the Laserjet (which is the default printer). Or the tiling lines may appear well outside of the page outline -- and double, with one set about 3/8" larger all around. A file I keep as a template for a plain 8 1/2x11" portrait layout opens with the tiling lines in the right place, but also changes as above once I've gone into "print" and come back to the file. The print preview shows 1/4" margins all around, and prints to that size, meaning anything laid out (lain out?) to the page tiling is off the 1/2" margin of the Photosmart. A similar "template" file for landscape does the same. (Landscape page tiling has always been wonky -- that is unchanged or maybe worse, with tiling lines for both layouts, doubled, etc.)
This is some kind of a system problem, not an Illustrator or perhaps even an Adobe software problem (it's the same in Photoshop though I don't often print from PS so it's not bothersome there), but I thought someone here might have had the same problem or one like it.
I 'm using the latest printer driver -- insofar as there is a "latest:" for Vista 65bit--, but HP didn't much want to install it to Win7 -- it did install when I chose the "install with recommended settings" button.
Any input will be appreciated. (Except don't tell me to get CS4, I tried for a month to get the copy I bought to install and spent days' worth of phone hours to accomplish nothing, finally got some of my money back and decided to wait for CS5 or until I find non-Adobe programs to do some or all of the jobs... whichever comes first...)
TIA

<Have you considered creating a user-defined default document profile for the printer in teh printers control panel?
That doesn't seem to be an option with this printer, at least not anywhere I can find.
<Sounds like the print engine is querying those values and the system simply returns >>>what it thinks<<< are correct settings based on your printer default.
But the printer default (letter, document, meaning with the normal printer margin of .25" top and sides, about .4" on the bottom) should return the correct margins, shouldn't it? (.25" all around is the default for the Laserjet, but it makes no difference whether the default printer is the Photosmart or the Laserjet)
<Also check, which printer language it's using. It often makes a huge difference of PS vs. PCL. vs. WinPrint (GDI+).
<Far as I remember it's PCL like all the other HP printers we've had --can't find that in the properties tabs either and put the manuals somewhere where I knew I could always find them... (bet I can download them)
Illustrator has never liked that printer much -- CS2 crashed if I changed the settings (which was nearly always necessary) from its printer setup function. And CS3 still gets absolutely crazy with page tiling if I change the page setting from portrait to landscape. I don't remember if PS has the same troubles.
<If all else fails, an alternative may be to save as PDF and print from Acrobat. It has a much better handle on such things. AI is really quite limited in that regard...
What I did, and should have thought of first thing! was put a guide on the lower page tiling line of the template file (for printing custom-sized labels and sets of photos, has centers and cut lines marked) as soon as I had the template file on the screen. The tiling lines are correct to the printable area of the Photosmart until the print function is evoked. Then when I'm designing and spacing labels etc., I'll know where the lower boundary is.
Saving as a PDF isn't very practical for this stuff as my husband is of the nibbled to death by ducks, or millimetres, school of design and will have me making mm adjustments for hours on a label which to be stuck on a hard hat (and thus wrinkled and distorted, as a rule). Every time he needs a new set or a reprinting of an existing badge. (Hmmm... if I PDFed the file and told him it was unchangeable...)

CS4 Page Tiling Problem

I recently moved to a 64 bit computer and i don't know if that is part of my issue or not but i finally figured out what is causing my rotate tool problem. Basically for as long as i've had the program and this new computer everytime i opened an old ai. file i had an issue with the rotate and skew tool and and just about any other tool with the click and drag function. Once i clicked the button to rotate, it would not release.....it stayed in constant preview mode and i would ultimately have to force quit the program to make it stop. I would take my finger off the buttom but the rotate would not set....it just kept rotatating to whatever i did with my mouse. Now it would only do this on some documents and not others, so i've been trying to find the cause and i just did. As soon as i set to show page tiling, this issue arises. The second i take it off....it the problem stops. I've trying reinstalling several times, i've even tried reformatting my computer and reinstalling. I have all the latest tablet, video card, and printer drivers installed. All updates etc. Anyone have an idea how i can fix this? I like to use the page tiling function so i really want to fix this issue.

The obvious work around would be to keep the tile preview off when working on the document. Then when you need to see the tiles for printing turn it back on. This sounds like a real pain but you may need to be aware of the foibles of using illustrator on your particular system and use a work around (which you discovered) to get work done until you resolve this issue. From what you have stated, and the symptoms I would start with the Tablet to see if you can eliminate the issue by taking it out of the equation. Also if you search this forum for issues with tools and Tablets you may be surprised the answers you find. I often do this first before posting a question. I seem to remember seeing others with sticking tools behaviors while using Tablets in past postings. If I find one which looks promising to resolving your problem I will post a link.

Print/Page Tiling?

I'm playing around with Illustrator CS 4 and the print tiling thing is kinda throwing me off. Here's my scenario:
Let's say I'm creating a new document with A4 - sized artboards and I want 10 artboards in 2 rows. I want to see the print tiling on all the artboards at the same time but when I go into the print (setup) I can't turn the tiling on (greyed out). If I use the print tiling tool, it only does it for 1 artboard and if I go to View > Show Print Tiling, once again only on 1 artboard. So my question is how do I turn on print tiling on multiple artboards at the same time?
In the pic below, it shows page tiling from a document originally drawn in Illustrator CS and it has page tiling in all the pages. I want that in my artboards.
P.S. I'm on a Mac

Pages 08 help appears in Pages 09

I just upgraded from Pages 08 to Pages 09 via the Mac App Store. But when I choose Pages Help from the Help Menu i get the help for Pages 08 not the new Pages 09. How can I fix that?
Thx.

My choice would be to ignore the help files and use the Pages '09 User Guide. The guide is available for download via the Halp menu, or through the link. If you'd prefer to use the Help files, this link should take you there: Pages '09 Help.

We are unable to open a Pages 5.0.1 document in Pages 4.2 and retain ability to edit all aspects of the document. I have tried saving the 5.0.1 version as Pages '09 and am still unable to open it in the earlier version of pages. Help?

No, it isn't. Pages 5 isn't compatible with Pages 4.3 as it is lacking more than 90 features that Pages 4 has. So when you open a Pages 4 document in Pages 5 only the simplest documents will look the same in Pages 5.
Pages 4 can't open Pages 5 documents at all!! You have to export back to Pages 09 as I said above.
You probably will be more happy if you just use Pages 4 (Pages 09). There are many threads in this forum that describes the lack of compatibility between the two versions. Pages 5 is in my view not Pages anymore.
If you don't desperately need Pages 5 for moving documents over iCloud to new iOs devices don't use it.

The main part of the safari page is grey and won't respond/can't type in any commands. I can move back through the previous pages, and even open new ones via the URL, but can't get onto the main part of the page and I can't get onto the 9 page option. !?

Help, please.

Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Setup of page tiling

Having trouble getting page tiling to match my artboard.
Following the instructions for saving multiple pages into a pdf file I'm told to setup my artboard large enough to house all the pages (images in my case).
I'm trying to paginate 4 images at 8.5 x 11 each so I setup the artboard a bit larger. (18x23)
Then walking thru the print dialog I set the media to 8.5 x 11, and during `setup' I set `Crop work to art board' and `tile full pages'
When I click done and view page tiling, I get nine tiles far exceeding the size of my art board.
After working thru this several times, and reviewing the `tiling' help as well, I'm still getting 9 tiles whose combined size is way bigger than the artboard.
The directions I followed say the artboard will be divided equally by the number of objects, far as I can tell.
What do I need to do to end up with 4 tiles equally dividing my 18x23 artboard?

> Dan Olech - 6:08pm Oct 27, 08 PST (#2 of 2)
> Set up the artboard in the EXACT multiple of the page tiling. In your example document set up-artboard should be 17x23, for 4 vertical page tiles.
> As a tip you can let AI figure out the dimensions by putting 2*8.5 then 2*11.5 in the boxes. It seems simple but if you do A4 size tiles and want 6 page tiles it comes in handy.
Thanks for the multiply tip but making the artboard the exact size made no differece whatever. I'm still getting 9 tiles.. far exceeding my artboard where there should be 4 dividing it equally.
In the print dialog, for media size I am putting 8.5 x 11. Is that right?
What else am I missing here.
