Page size? 4 page booklet to print out on 11X17, acrobat 9 pro

Hello,
I need to create a printed application which will print out on 11X17 in paper and then fold in half.
so pages 2 and 3 are on 1 side and
pages 1 and 4 are on the other side.
when you fold it it opens up like a book.
does anyone know how to change the page size to 11X17? or how to create a booklet in adobe acrobat 9 pro

11 x 17 inch paper is known as "Ledger." If your printer supports Ledger,you would select this size in the Properties dialog for your model.

I have a problem with iPhoto on my iMac. Under the view site, I am unable to get to the photo size function. It is grayed out

Under the view designation in iPhoto, the photo pane and photo size options are grayed out. How can I get them turned back on so I can modify the size of small old photo I have scanned in.

There is no way to increase the size of a photo image once it's been scanned/taken. If you want larger images from a scanned image scan it at a higher resolution, dpi.
Additionally, with the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
what do you mean by "view designation"?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

How to change a pdf's page size, margins and page orientation? Are there available tools to do this?

We are converting Lotus Notes documents to PDF by exporting (printing) them to PDF via a PDF writer but found some content are truncated or cropped. We have to manually re-print to pdf using a different page/paper settings in order to capture the content correctly. Are there any other methods or tools which can automate this step? Would it be possible to change the PDF properties to adjust the page size, etc?
Hope there are some useful tools available as there are thousands of documents that are having this issue. Thank you.

The page size options are limited, but are in the crop tool. If there are no tags or other markup, you can also print to a new PDF and adjust the size in the printer interface -- sometimes the simplest method, but not normally recommended. The rotation can be done in the document menu and then saved. The rotation that is typically on the toolbar are only for the current view and does not save with the PDF. Many of these you can use a batch process to resolve (in AA8 that is under the Advanced>Document Processing). The better method is to setup your Adobe PDF printer to create the correct page size and orientation in the future. You can setup to typically expand to fit, select a paper size, and have the settings set to auto-rotate. The later is based on the text that is found on the page. The margin elimination is also part of the crop tool. Hopefully this at least gives you some things to look at. Unfortunately, the tools get moved around with every version, so you may have to search for the tools.

Layers panel grayed out

Ok...I'm using InDesign CS4.
My layers panel is completely empty, grayed out, with no option to add a layer or do anything within the panel. Any clue why this is happening? It's driving me nuts!
Thanks in advance for the help.

Thanks, it worked.

Master page size conflict? Can't figure out what's wrong...

Hi community,
I posted this ticket earlier, but I think I should post it in English, for a larger audience...
So here's the story :
I got a really odd issue while moving (or adding) pages...
Here's a very basic layout :
Now, lets place page 2 after page 3. Here's the result :
As you can see, pages don't seem to relate properly to master pages.
I can't figure out why...
If I apply masters onto my pages, InDesign says there's a size conflict.
Assuming I would apply again my master, ID will replace elements at the right place for now, but doesn't solve the problem at all.
Any idea ??
Here's a download link for this document :

Please note, I'm working with InDesign CS6 (8.0.2 version)
Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi Willy.
I didn't use the page tool (I never do), but it's a collaborative project, so I can't be sure nobody did.
As you might have guessed, the attached Indd file is not the real file: I did remove all styles, variants, blocks,... everything from the original project to reduce it to a very basic template...
If I create a document from scratch, obviously there is no problem. If I don't find the solution, I will recreate the document from scratch, but you'll understand I'd like to avoid spending my time that way...
So...
I tried changing the orientation from document setup and crtl-z... didn't do the trick!
Now, here are more information for a better understanding:
The original project was landscape orientated (A4).
I had to adapt it to a portrait orientation version (still A4). Please note I didn't use the page tool. Obviously, something got wrong there and did create the problem...
Now, if I right-click my page panel and set its view "by variant", the name of the (unique) variant is the same than the original project, even though it has a different orientation.
The strange thing is that the name is a personalized one (it should have been "A4 H"). Why is that? I dunno... Why (anf who did?) change the name of the "variant" is a mystery... But I guess this could be a clue...
Well... still stuck on this puzzler...
Thanks all for your help anyway...

Where do I find the "page back" button. Mine is "grayed out"

On many pages I can't use the page back button it is gray and won't allow me to use it.
When this happens how can I get to page back other than closing Firefox and reopening it.
thank you

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Getting page size of specific page

I was wondering if there is a way to get the width and height of each specific page. I want to do this other than using documentPreferences because each of the pages I created are a different size and I believe just checking the documentPreferences will give you the default size to make a new page.

The safe answer is:
var pgTopLeft = myPage.resolve(AnchorPoint.topLeftAnchor, CoordinateSpaces.innerCoordinates)[0],
pgBotRight = myPage.resolve(AnchorPoint.bottomRightAnchor, CoordinateSpaces.innerCoordinates)[0];
var widthInPoints = pgBotRight[0] - pgTopLeft[0],
heightInPoints = pgBotRight[1] - pgTopLeft[1];
// results are in points (whatever the UI) and are *not altered* by any page transformation

Edit Live Page View in New Tab Grayed Out

I've been looking forward to use using Dreamweaver CS5 to edit dynamic sites. One of the things I thought would really save time was being able to navigate to a dynamic page in live view and then edit it, instead of using File/Open, but when I browse to a page, the Edit the Live View Page in a New Tab is Grayed Out. Any help?

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you needed to check out the document again when open a document which was checked out by yourself and received the error that the document was locked by yourself.
I tested the same scenario per your post, and I got the same results as you got.
I recommend to use the following method to call DispEX (utilizing open document add-on) which is directed to document relative URL instead of using the direct link:
<a onclick="return DispEx(this,event,'TRUE','FALSE','FALSE','SharePoint.OpenDocuments.3','1','SharePoint.OpenDocuments','','','','1','0','0','0x7fffffffffffffff')"
href="/site name/library name/file name.xlsx">Edit Document</a>
Best regards.
Thanks

HELP!! I am having BIG PROBLEMS getting the Custom Page Sizes to work!!

I am having a MAJOR challenge working with the Custom Page Size feature in Pages '09. My mom is working on a primer music book for publication, where the page size (for the printer) MUST BE 9" X 12"!! For some reason even though I have set the custom page size to 9" x 12", The document does not appear to have the proper proportions, (i.e. the ration of the width to height IS NOT EQUAL TO THAT OF A 9" X 12" DOCUMENT!!)
HELP!! PLEASE!!
Also, for some reason my Vertical Ruler has COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED!! My Horizontal Ruler (on top) is still there but there is no sign of the vertical one which is CRITICAL for aligning the of the content for publication!!
I took an annotated screenshot of what the document that is +*SUPPOSEDLY 9" x 12".*+ But there is +*NO WAY THAT IT IS ACTUALLY 9"12!!*+
I have also taken some screenshots of a few other Inspector Panels and other things that might help SOMEBODY to figure out what the problem is!

Hi kmamusic
Welcome to the forum.
To show your vertical ruler:
+Menu > Pages > Preferences > Rulers > check Enable vertical ruler in word processing documents+
You are right the page does look slightly too high.
The one thing you did not give us was a screen snap of the *Custom Page* you set up in *Page Setup…*
This is what would dictate the actual page size.

Creating a document with different page sizes.

I'm trying to produce a leaflet with different pages sizes. To try and explain what I mean I have included a picture of what I'd like the front cover to look like. When producing a booklet there doesn't seem to be a provision to individually alter each page size in the pages or document set up panel. Is there anyway around this or do I have to create each page seperately, export to pdf and then combine into the leaflet? Help gratefully received. tomas

The build booklet feature is for very basic booklets, not something like this.
Sorry, but you’ll need to make everything full size and then do the cutting.

Custom Page Sizes - How to change from centimeters to Inches?

Hello,
I'm working on some panoramic prints to an Epson R2400 and I need to set up a custom paper size for printing to roll paper. When I select Custom Page Sizes from the Page Setup dropdown, all my measurements are forced into centimeters. Even if I try and specify it to be in inches when I type in the values, I get an error saying "Invalid Number" because of the " (in mark designation).
And because the input box only allows two decimal places, I can't get accurate inches-to-centimeter conversions because the sizes I need are 3+ decimals when converted to centimeters.
Searching on the web I've come across many pages with info on the Custom Page Sizes dialog box and the images show the values being set in inches, but I've found nowhere that says where you specify where I can change this default measurement?
If anyone could help me, it'd be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Kristin.

Answering my own questions.
Because I'm Canadian, in Preferences -> International -> Formats I needed to change "Measurement Units" to "US" instead of "Metric".

Page has a custom page size message

On the master pages, on a locked layer, we have a frame whose content is set to "Undefined" that is sized to exactly match the page size. This is so the page trim can easily be seen and measured in PDF and when printed and we've never had any trouble with it before.
We have a file in which when we change the starting page number that frame goes out of position by 9 pts toward the outside of the pages. When we reapply a master to that page (even if its the SAME master) we get the message "Page ## has a custom page size. This page can retain its current size or be resized to match the new master."
If we select "Keep current size" the outer frame to mark the page trim stays in the wrong position. If we select "Use master page size" that frame gets set correctly.
I've checked the page size at all stages using both the page tool and the button on the pages pallet and it shows the page size to be exactly what the rest of the pages and the document are set to, so I don't understand why I'm getting this message.
The first problem I was made aware of with this file is that when we ran our script to auto flow text the script was overriding the master items on to the page in the wrong position. Thinking it had something to do with the script command (which works correctly on other files) I posted this http://forums.adobe.com/message/5206889#5206889 to the scripting forum.
Now that I've been made aware of this custom page size message I'm thinking this and the script not working correctly are related.
Thanks for any insight anyone can offer.

I wondered whether my operator had accidentally changed the page size with the page tool selected and that the sizes showing in the dialog and on the tool bar were, maybe, rounded. When I saw your message I was hopeful that, maybe, the preflight would detect an incorrect page size.
But, alas, it did not! It is showing on errors.
Thinking that maybe InD was "seeing" the frame that was sitting outside the page as making the page larger I tried repositioning it and removing it before applying the master. But, I received the message again.
Thanks for taking the time to respond!

Different page sizes in same article or folio

Hi
Is it possible to have pages with different sizes in the same article or articles with different sizes inside a .folio?
I saw something like this in last edition of Wired magazine in the Table of content (4th article) and Wired.com section (6th article). Or is it made in another way?
I tried to apply different page sizes in the pages panel and changing the page size of the document, but when updating the article I got error messages like [Error: Multiple page sizes within a document are not supported.] or [Error: The page size aspect ratio must match the folio aspect ratio.].
Thanks

Those are separate articles. You asked about the different sizes in the same article. I missed the part about different size articles…sorry.
You can use smooth scrolling with longer articles but they have to be single pages. Make sure to turn smooth scrolling on and use the _h or _v suffix with the file names.
