Pages resizing my doc
Pages is resizing my document when I try to print or convert to PDF. It is CLEARLY an 8.5 x 11 document but tries to print like a tabloid. I have already chosen US Letter as my paper size. This is the ONLY document that is doing this. It is 70 pages long-- or I would just do it.
Do you want to print from the same computer you created the document?
Where did you choose the paper size?

Batch convert Pages files to Doc and stay in the same folder?
Hi there,
I use iWork '09 on Mountain Lion. I recently switched to Microsoft Word and prefer it over Pages (personal preference). However, I have nearly 1000 files on my computer that are in Pages format. I have extensively searched this issue in the Apple Support Communities and it appears that there are scripts that DO EXIST that batch convert Pages files into Word files. However, it appears that many of these scripts were built for older versions of iWork and therefore I run into various errors. For example, I used the script available at http://pagesfaq.blogspot.com/2008/01/export-folder-to-word-rtf-pdf-txt-or.html and click run but nothing actually happens (the script runs for less than a second, then I can click run again). I was able to use one script successfully (pasted below), but the only reason I can't use it is because it saves ALL my converted documents in one folder on my desktop and I would like a script that can save them in the original file were the Pages document is located.
So, is there an iWork '09 compatible script that can convert my Pages documents to Word documents and save them in the same folder as the original? Oh, and for an added bonus, it'd be cool if the script also deleted my Pages version after it was done with the conversion

On Pages: I need to move the first page of my document to the end, and it shows me all the pages are in a group. How do I ungroup the pages in my doc.
Hello there, linafrompereira.
The following portion of the online Pages Help for Mac provides information on grouping items in Pages:
Layer, group, and lock objects - Pages Help for Mac
http://help.apple.com/pages/mac/5.2/#/tan5eab46568
Group and ungroup objects
Shift-click to select multiple objects.
In the Arrange pane of the Format inspector, click Group (or choose Arrange > Group from the Arrange menu at the top of your computer screen).
To ungroup an object, select it, then click Ungroup or choose Arrange > Ungroup.
Tip: You can Control-click objects, then choose Group or Ungroup from the shortcut menu. You can also add these buttons to the toolbar: Group and Ungroup.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro. -
Why, when I copy and paste a shape are the rest of the pages in the doc being deleted?
I am trying to add an identical formatted shape below the first formatted shape, but when I select, copy, paste, it is deleting the following pages of the doc. If I'm not careful, I will lose the rest of the doc. What is going on?
If I select the shape I want to copy, it is outlined in blue and under Arrange the Group/Ungroup options are greyed out.
There is plenty of space for the new pasted image on the page and I just click below the original image being copied to paste it.
And sometimes there is this thick blue line at the top of the page when copy/paste -> dissapear. What is that?
Also, a pasted object always defaults to Inline instead of Floating, so a new image snaps to a grid. Anyway to change that?Sorry I didn't notice that you are on iOS.
There are two kinds of Pages documents, Word Processing and Layout.
Word Processing documents have text on every page that automatically flows on to the next page if it does not fit on the current page. A page only is shown on screen if it has text on it. Floating objects don't count.
If you have a complicated set of objects with wrap pushing text out of the way and text being consequently pushed over to the enxt page, odd things can happen as that text, which includes invisibles like returns, spaces, tabs, page breaks etc push over to the next page or flow back to previous pages as you move objects and make room for the etxt or not.
Layout documents, do not auto flow from page to page. Each page is an individual section and things stay where you put them.
It sounds like you may be better off using a Layout template for your work. Choose one from the Template/Document Chooser.

Hi all
I'm currently building a website using Dreamweaver 8. You can
see it at www.idl.dundee.ac.uk/~lyndon/active.htm
as you can see i have a timeline running across the page and
layers that pop up when the mouse is moved over them to give
details(using show/hide layers behaviours). The problem is i have
the width set at 100% so when the page resizes the layers are in
the wrong places.
If anyone can give me some pointers as to how i might get
this to work it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
LyndonThe only way to get this to work with a 100% table that can
expand on the
page, is to place your layers inside a relatively positioned
div that is
inside strategic table cells, e.g.,
<td><div style="position:relative;"><div
id="Layer1"
style="position:absolute; top:....
Each layer will have to be positioned as need with regard to
that table
cell. Once you do that, you should be good to go.

How do I have pages of my docs automatically numbered consecutively

How do I have the number of pages of my docs automatically numbered consecutively?
<Email Edited by Host>Click in any header or footer field; an option to enter page number will pop up. Or click setup gear at top right, then click "Section," and click the page number options you want (including option to skip the first page).

Hello! Can't open an IDML file. ID file was created in CC (10). It is a 100 page (50 spreads) doc that is one big table. It was created in CC (10) and saved as an IDML file. I have CS6 and when I try to open it, it shuts down ID almost instantly. The file was created on a MAC and I am trying to open it on a MAC. Any/all advice is greatly appreciated as I am up against a deadline with this unopened file! Many thanks in advance, Diane
There's a good chance the file is corrupt. As whomever sent it to you to verify it opens on their end.

Trying to convert Pages to Word doc, but keep getting this error message: TypeError: Object doesn't support property or method 'invalidate' JavaScript console contains more details. Any ideas on how to get past this?
Right. If you are using delegated privs and sudo, make sure that sudo is configured to pass on the PERL5LIB and ORACLE_HOME environment variables at least.

How do you make html page resize to fit any browser
Hi All,
How do you make the html page resize to fit any browser/window both vert and horizontally.
Thanks!
RandyHorizontally by using percentage width instead of pixels. This is called a liquid layout.
http://alt-web.com/TEMPLATES/CSS2-Liquid-Page.shtml
Vertical resizing is irrelevant in web design. Page content determines page height. The more content, the longer the page. The less content, the shorter the page. Scrollbars appear when needed.

Hi all,
I've got a popular multipage PDF import script that I can run and import PDF'S into indesign. I use this to import every page at 100%, usually these are A1 in size but they do differ - Is there a way to adapt it to automatically change all document page sizes to match the imported pdf size?
Most of these PDF import scripts have options to fit the pdf's to the page, I need the other way around - to look at the size of the pdf page being imported and set the doc size so the PDF fits on it!
Any ideas?
Even if anyone has a script to resize a one page document to fit a placed graphic frame within it - that would be extremely helpful!
ThanksTry this script from Roland Dreger: Fotobuch mit Adobe InDesign — Roland Dreger, Grafikdesign .

I am using a doc formatted on excel --- how do i resize the doc to fit on one page?
I am using a document that was formatted in excel (on a PC) --- how do i resize the document to print on one page?
Hi phylw,
Here is one way. View > Show Print View. At the bottom of the window is a slider control called Content Scale. Slide to the left to shrink the document.
Under File > Print... you will see a print preview that tells you how many pages the document now occupies.

Pages '08 Arabic doc prints in Tiger, not Leopard
I have a Pages '08 doc that is a mix of Arabic and English characters which will not print fully in Leopard but prints fine in Tiger (on either a Xerox Phaser 4400n or an HP LaserJet 4200n). The printer prints a blank page or, occasionally, a PostScript error. It seems that the trouble is specific to the characters in this doc, as other Arabic docs print fine, even under Leopard. I've been able to get parts of the unprintable doc to print by selectively deleting text, but I wasn't able to narrow down exactly what the offending characters or strings were.
Deleting and re-adding the printer and updating the HP printer drivers didn't help. Any suggestions on where I could look for error logs, fixes, further troubleshooting?I have a Pages '08 doc that is a mix of Arabic and English characters
Pages often messes up Arabic text, especially when mixed with English, and it is normally recommended to use a different app for such things (Mellel is the best). Is your text known to be correct? -
Can't open pages 3.0 docs with Pages 2.0
I have Pages 2.02. I am having a person create flyers for me. They are created in Pages 3.0. I am unable to open them. Is this normal, early versions of Pages cannot open later versions. There may be an answer to this but I couldn't find one.
It seems unusual for them not to be compatible. I am not a big fan of Pages and do not want to buy a newer version just to open a few docs.
Thanks
mcmotorIt's the normal behaviour.
Pages 3.0 contain features which are unavailable in Pages 2.
So, the structure of the Pages 3 documents is different that the structure of Pages 2 ones.
Ask your correspondant to be fair enough to export its document as a Pages 2 one or as a PDF one.
You may also download the iWork '08 trial version.
It will be a full one during 30 days and will become a simple reader when the 30 days will be out.
