PDF bleed setting displaces page number

When creating a PDF with "Use document bleed" setting on a certain document, one page of the resulting PDF continually shows just one element (page number, text, line, etc.) repositioned toward the center left edge of the document. Is this a corrupt document? I have tried replacing all elements to no avail. Without that bleed setting it generally exports correctly. The document is 80 pages, lots of overlapping images and transparency.

OS? Version of ID, and is the latest patch installed? Have you tried other PDF export settings? Have you tried exporting to .idml/.inx? (see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/526991)

How do you open a PDF to a specific page number in Safari 8.0?

I'm using the command #page=33 to try to force Safari to open a PDF to a specific page number. While this works fine on just about every website browser, it doesn't seem to work in Safari. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

The problem is most likely with the Safari PDF plugin, which doesn't process the open parameters correctly. To be fair, though, this is not a part of the PDF ISO specification but something that Adobe implemented on their own in their PDF plugins, so other applications are not obliged to follow it.
If you switch to using the Adobe plugin then it should work, even in Safari.

PDF print out prints page number 1/1*

I have a Web Dynpro report that when I print out in PDF format, the page number prints out as 1/1* of the length of report is greater than 100. Is there any way to work around this?
Thanks.

Try Print as Image (Advanced button on Print panel).

Hi,
Combine Files tool in PDF Pack can combine multiple files into a single PDF file, but adding page number to each page of the single PDF file has be done in Adobe Acrobat.
You can subscribe to Acrobat Plus or download Acrobat XI Pro trial version from www.adobe.com. Please see more information about Acrobat Plus subscription at https://www.acrobat.com/acrobatplus/en/home.html?trackingid=JPZKR.

Question: how to automatize `Page Number`-ing

Hi,
Lets say, I have a document of 150 pages divided to 150 pdf files with a numeric tag in it, from 1 to 150, for a start (that is what I have to deal with).
The first 10 pages are the table of content, that is where I have to take actions (the document can contain any number of pages, 150-10 is just an example)
first, I open the table of content pages and then I merge them into 1 document (Acrobat)
then I go to: `file -> document properties -> open options`
here in the `Page Number` field, I set the number to the page, where I want the merged document to be displayed at open as default, then I save the document 10 times overwriting the existing *.pdf files, every time set the `Page Number` field to be displayed in harmony with the file naming
So now I have 10 completely identical documents containing the same 10 pages, the only difference, if u open them, they will pop on different initial page, as default.
My very simple question is: is there a way (must be) to automatize this process? Unfortunately there are hundreds of them, and it is a really mindblowing experience to do this 8 hours a day
There is a Plug-In, where I could create an action opening the `file -> document properties -> open options` and the `file -> Save As...` menu after each other, this way I only need to edit the `Page Number` field and then select the existing *.pdf file to save/overwrite it, but it is still time consuming and ineffective.
Nandor

Hi Malcolm,
Thanks for your idea. The problem is that Nandor needs to set the Open to Page depending on the filename, ie. file0004.pdf should show page 4 when opened in Acrobat.
Let me explain. Initially there is a folder with an unknown amount of PDF-s in it, named as file0001.pdf, file0002.pdf, ... file0158.pdf etc. All of these pdf-s only contain one page.
The automation should do the following:
merge the first few pdf-s (they can be identified easily: only these pdf-s contain ... (ellipsis characters), save this merged pdf as file0001.pdf, overwrite the original). This is the TOC of a manual.
make copies from the merged pdf (TOC) acccording to the total page of the TOC, naming them as file0002.pdf, file0003.pdf – effectively replacing each single paged pdf with the multipaged TOC.
at the same time set the Open to Page attribute of each TOC clone according to the filename ie. page 4 for file0004.pdf.
I wrote a JS which can make the copies from the merged TOC, and tried to set the pageNum as well, but it fails (strangely enough the last pdf works perfectly, it opens to the right page).
Here is my script:
// Make copies with different Open to Pages
//determine the amount of pages in the document
var tocPages = this.numPages+1;    //+1 for filenaming
//truncate the end of the filename
var myFileName=this.path.slice(0, path.length - 8);
// Saving copies of the document according to page number
for (var i = 2; i < tocPages; i++) {
//set the Open to Page <------- FAILS?
this.pageNum = i;
//Padding pageNum with zeroes for filename
var paddedI = pad(i,4);
       //make the filename
this.saveAs(myFileName+ paddedI + ".pdf");
// Pad a number with leading zeroes ie. 0001, 0023, 000056
function pad(n, len) {
s = n.toString();
if (s.length < len) {
s = ('0000000000' + s).slice(-len);
    return s;
I suspect that pageNum() is just a runtime method to jump to a page, and I should hardwire it into the PDF somehow (document level JS?). But I don't know how can I attach a JS to a pdf from javascript. Or maybe pageNum() is not the property what I need here...

Page number in WAD

Hi experts,
i have a web template which has many report items. It contains four tabs but the customer wants to have all these reports in the different tabs in only one PDF file. I could do it. But i have the problem with page number.
Can anyone tell me how i can do it?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Ali

Hi Ali,
If you have set the Page Number to display in the Export to PDF settings & it isn't displaying in the PDF output, maybe it could be a bug is my guess.
SAP Note 1069368 says currently WYSIWYG export is not supported
Note 1167205 - NW 2004s BI Web PDF export: Header content is missing (talks about how a date doesn't show in the output)
But
Note 1113858 - NW 2004s BI PDF export: Page entry in header always English (says that page entry is definitely exported but always in english)
So I have found conflicting notes, maybe you can check on your SPS Level & infer. Meanwhile I can search for relevant notes on a possible bug, if any.

How can I get a total page count of a PDF before placing every page in the PDF?

Before the [long] spiel, I'm using javascript in InDesign CS3.
I'd like to create a script that places a multiPage PDF in any number of different impositions. (saddle stitch, 4up signatures, 16up signatures etc.)
I've easily created a script that iterates through a PDF and places it into a new document as (4,1|2,3), (8,5|6,7) etc, which works for printing in duplex, folding each page in half, and gluing the resulting spines to make a simple thick book (for PDFs with more than, say, 64 pages).
However, the next step is to re-write the script to create a saddle stitch document (16,1|2,15), (14,3|4,13) ... (10,7|8,9). For this I need to know how many pages there are in the PDF before I start placing the PDF pages, and then making the new document [int((PDFpages+3)/4)] pages long.
Is there a simple way to get the count of PDFpages without going through a loop and placing the next page from the PDF until the placed page number equals the first page number?
This way seems wasteful:
var totPDFPages = 1;
app.pdfPlacePreferences.pageNumber = totPDFPages;
myPDFPage = sheetFront.place(File(srcPDF), [0,0])[0];
var pdfFirstPage = myPDFPage.pdfAttributes.pageNumber;
while (doneCounting == false) {
totPDFPages += 1;app.pdfPlacePreferences.pageNumber = totPDFPages;
myPDFPage = sheetFront.place(File(srcPDF), [0,0])[0];
if (myPDFPage.pdfAttributes.pageNumber == pdfFirstPage) {
totPDFPages -=1;
doneCounting = true;
alert("PDF has " + totPDFPages + " pages!");exit();
myPDFPage.remove();
NB. Javascript above *hasn't* been run, but should look similar once debugged.
The only thing I've though of to relieve the sheer duplication of placing the PDF twice (once for the count, and once for the imposition), is to create an array of impoPages[counter]=myPDFPage, and then shuffle the pages referenced by the array to the correct sheet and position.
It'd be much easier to be able to assign pageCount = File(srcPDF).pageCount !!!
Thanks for any help/tips or even a simple "What are you smoking, man!?"
Cheers,
Jezz

this will get almost all pdf pages count.

PDF renders the wrong page numbers

Have been trying to convert some word documents to PDF.. The page number in the word is in the format "Page 1 of N, Page 2 of N..... Page N of N".. but after conversion the PDF shows the page number as Page 1 of 1, Page 2 of 2, Page 3 of 3...... Page N of N. Is this a problem with the page number formatting in word or is it something wrong with the PDF convertor? Plz help... this is driving me crazy...

Hi there,
I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble. Are you using the online service Adobe CreatePDF to create your PDF files? If so, whatever information is in the file should be converted precisely into the PDF; if you're using Adobe Acrobat desktop software, I'm afraid you're in the wrong forum. You may want to repost your question here: www.acrobatusers.com/forum
If you are using CreatePDF and would like assistance, please let me know the details of your process so I can try to help. Thank you for your patience!
Best,
Rebecca

Outside in Viewer resets the page number to 1 always, even though the Word document has page numbering starting from different value.

Hi All,
I've a Word Document with page header having page number inserted.However the page numbers have been formatted to start from a value other than 1.
E.g. For a given word document, navigate to "File -> Insert -> Page number-> format page number -> start at " and set the value to say "300". Now insert page numbers, so that the page numbering of the 1st page starts from 300.
When this document is viewed using Outside-in Viewer, the page number of the 1st page always shows 1 instead of showing 300 (though this is not being reset/changed within the actual document)
I'm using Outside in 8.1.9 SDK for the same. Is there an API to set the page number correct (exactly what has been set within the original document) while viewing...
Alternatively confirm if this is a limitation within the Outside-in Viewer.
Thanks,
Badri

You're going to need to open an SR to Outside In Support, Product ID 2276.
Make sure you attach an example Word doc to the SR.

Why the window setting the printing disappeared when I try to select the page number of pdf file

When I send the pdf file to the printer and try to select the page number to be printed by entering (e.g., 4-10), the page for setting up printing work suddenly disappeared. As a result, I could only print pdf files from page 1 to the end, if I want to print any document. I have no problem with printing word documents. Thus, it should not be problems related to printer, right ?
Your help is highly appreciated !

What is your operating system? Reader version?
You mean the Print panel completely disappears when you enter some page numbers?

How to change the page number of the existing PDF during assembling?

Hi All,
I am going to assemble two PDF's. Both the PDF's are having page no. So i am assembling two pdf's using invokeDDX method. I am setting page number in the DDX. Assembled PDF is having both the page no's, old page no and the newly generated page no. How to get ride of the old page no? If one PDF is of 2 pages and other PDF is of 3 pages.It should show only 1 of 5,2 of 5,.....5 of 5. It showing this along with 1 of 3,...3 of 3.
Thanks in advance.
Lavanya.

Hi
Please declare the line count for report page length.
When you do not declare it is taken as default 0 and this is dynamic page lenght of SAP ( limit is 60,000 lines).
Use statement REPORT <rep> LINE-COUNT <length> [(<pf>)].
Where <length> is line count. Use as per your requirement. <pf> is line reserved for footer if you require.
Additional you can use LINE-SIZE <width> to determine width of page.
Please reward if helpful.

Sunil

Search rollover page number not consistent with thumb and pdf page number

Please respond by e-mail to
[email protected]
Adobe Reader 9.0 and 8.1.2.
Mac OS X 10.4.11
Mac PowerPC G4
640 MB SDRAM
Does Adobe Reader have a search window phrase rollover, yellow-highlighted pop up page number bug displaying the wrong page in some circumstances?
If Yes, how do I report that bug to get Adobe to fix it?
Viewing the same PDF:
MacPreview does not have the problem described below,
Adobe Reader does have the problem.
Adobe Reader, search phrase rollover, pops up a page number that is yellow-highlighted, e.g., p# 29, and is wrong, whereas the page number for the thumb and PDF are both the same and are correct.
My PDF has been set on Acrobat Pro to properly paginate the first eight pages in lowercase Roman numerals (i, ii, iii, iv, v, vi, vii, viii) followed by Arabic numerals (1, 2, etc.). My PDF uses an AcrobatPro special setting to properly handle this pagination scheme. The search phrase rollover pops up a yellow-highlighted page number that wrongly adds 8 pages to the page number for the thumb and for the PDF page. Suspiciously, we have 8 pages with lowercase Roman numbers. Remember, viewing the same PDF, MacPreview works perfectly, producing identical and correct page numbers for the phrase, thumb, and PDF.

the method u followed is fine as need a page number staring from a specify value which u input.
@section is only for resetting page number to 1 for every group and for that pdf and ppt will be fine but only for rtf u need to use that ( pressing F9).
u can use @section and initial page number combined but they give u same output as get now. rtf output wont support it will only reset 1 every time
What ever u do rtf output wont support initial page number code ..........
i mentioned that F9 work around to mention that it is the only work around u have upto now to control rtf output with regards to page number.
Guru's correct me if i am wrong. wait for a day or two if some one from guru's confirm it .
If u need real confirmation raise an SR oracle will let u know .

Page Number Error when export to PDF

I am getting an error on page numbers for a book file when I export to PDF. The page numbers are set in the master pages and when I export each chapter individually the page number show fine. When I export the entire book, then some of the page numbers repeat. The pages are the right pages, but the numbers change incorrectly. For instance, the sequence goes, 58, 59, 58, 61 and 72, 73, 72, 73, 76.
I've updated to the latest InDesign (7.5.2) and have tried multiple PDF export options (High Print, Press, PDF/X, etc) and nothing fixes it.
Any suggestions?
thanks

This is a known (and fairly catastrophic) problem in CS5.5.
Some people have found exporting the individual INDD files to IDML, resaving them as INDD files (don't overwrite your originals!! Make a backup first!), and recreating the book works...for a while.
You could revert to CS5.0 if you have a license for it.
CS6 is on the horizon and should fix this bug.
Hopefully there'll be a CS5.5 maintenance update to do so as well.
Sorry I don't have a better suggestion.

When converting word to pdf the cover page of my documet gets page number 1.On the original the numb

When converting word to pdf the cover page of my documet gets page number 1.On the original the number pages start from the second page.How to keep the original format?

Michael's reponse is correct. However, as far as I knew, OFFICE 2007 came with printer metrics turned off, meaning it is not supposed to be sensitive to the printer selection. The setting is buried in the options list for compatibility. If it is turned off and a change in printer does affect the result, it would appear just one more of the many things in OFFICE 2007 that MS messed up. The latest one for me has been helping students with the messed up equation editor when you want to add equation numbers in a "standard" way. One of the MS employees even wrote a workaround macro for that problem.
