PDF printing -- area contents overflows area content in line

I have configured standard printing using fop.war in APEX 3.1. On occasion it produces a broken pdf file that cannot be opened with Adobe Reader 8. On the server, OC4J displays an INFO message: "area contents overflows area content in line". Sometimes a snippet of text follows the message. Is the INFO message related to producing a bad pdf? Are there limits on the size of pdf reports (width or length) that users need to know about?

Is this a known bug in FOP?If I wanted to know the answer to that I would start looking here:

3D PDF files in portfolio prints to Adobe PDF printer without content

3D PDF files in portfolio prints to Adobe PDF printer without content, but if printed from single 3D PDF file everything is fine. I need batch printing (this is the reason I use portfolio) of large amount of 3DPDF files because of the need to have proper preview of these files in browsers. Any ideas or workarounds how to have preview pdf's or jpg's of the single paged 3D PDF files, keeping relevant file names?

I suspected as much. I was hopeful it was something like a setting that needed to be changed or a reg hack that needed a bit changed from 0 to 1 to make the printing work as expected. I only installed the local printer to see if the RDP session
tunnel was in fact causing the print size to balloon so I will continue to instruct users to use that instead of the local redirected printer. I am disappointed but not surprised.
Edit:
Additionally I have tested the functionality of setting the GPO settings for Easy Print to use the redirected printer's drivers instead of the ones used by easy print, by setting “Computer
Configuration -> Administrative templates -Windows Components -> Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host -> Printer Redirection”.
to “Disabled” but
with no luck. In fact the printer received the proper Adobe PDF driver, but the job went out into print spool hell and was lost to the ether. I have concluded that this approach will not bear any fruit.

Custom options in Adobe PDF printer are not showing up in "Default Settings"

Hello,
I am using Windows 7 and I am trying to create custom "Default Settings" in my Adobe PDF printer. When I make edits to an existing setting, click "Save As..." and save with a new filename, the new settings are not showing up in the "Default Settings" drop down box in the "Adobe PDF Settings" tab of the "Adobe PDF Document Properties" dialogue box. I can confirm that the new settings are indeed saved on my hard drive and are located in:
C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings
No matter how many different custom settings I save as described above, they are simply now showing up. This works for me on other computers, but just happens not to work on my current one, which recently had an OS reinstall from scratch. Prior to the reinstall, it worked just fine on my computer (an ASUS UX31A laptop). The included pictures demonstrate what I'm talking about.
Any thoughts?

I finally solved this. The path for the Adobe PDF Settings was set to the follwing in the registry (HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\PDF Settings):
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings\
Even though "%USERNAME%" should work, it doesn't. I just replaced it with my actual username and it worked.

I need to print the contents of a text area

i am trying to create an editor and one of the options is print, so i want to print the contents of the text area. can someone help

See Printing the Contents of a Component in http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/2d/printing/index.html

When I try to print from the browser, it only prints about 1/3 of the page, it doesn't shrink the contents, just truncates the print area.

Currently running FF 3.6.8, with W 7 home professional. Every time I try to print from the FF browser, it truncates the print area to about 1/3 of it's normal size. It doesn't shrink to fit the content, just the print area. I've checked all the settings and they look normal. This only happens in FF, I can go to the same url in ie and it will work just fine.
== Every time I try to print directly from the browser.

All lines on PDF form are not printing

Greetings to all. I am running Adobe Acrobat XI version 11.0.0 on Windows 7 Home 64bit OS. I have made an attempt to print a PDF form. All of the lines in the form will not print. The properties of the document are: PDF Producer: MAC OS X 10.7.4 Quartz PDFContext and PDF Version: 1.3 (Acrobat 4.x). My printer is HP PSC 2350 series. There are about 30 lines on the form and out of the 30, 4 lines will not print. This form was not created by me. I saved the PDF from my university's website. Also and strangely, when I go to my printer settings and select Booklet, under Page Sizing & Handling, everything prints perfectly. I did try editing the lines by increasing the stroke width under Content and Editing but all of the lines still will not print. Here is a screenshot of the form from the website. My question is what settings on my printer or adobe acrobat do I need to change? Or what could be the cause of this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please do not hesitate to respond if more information is needed.

Most likely, the fault lies with the application used to fill in the forms,
which is probably Apple Preview, that is known to cause this problem. You
can fix the forms with this utility:
http://blog.practicalpdf.com/2013/08/introducing-the-practicalpdf-fix-form-utility/
And in the future instruct your users not to use Preview, but only Adobe
Reader (or Adobe Acrobat).

Excel sheets with defined print areas to pdf

Hello
I am trying to convert an Excel file with multiple sheets and defined print areas to pdf using Automator. The problem is that the action "Convert Format of Excel Files" prints everything on all sheets (even information outside the defined print areas).
Does anyone have a solution to this?
Thanks!

Some PDF Documents are Missing Letters when Printing

We use a Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise (64-bit) server as our print server. Ever since we moved our printers to this server, several of our existing PDF documents have missing letters when they print. If you modify your print properties and choose "Print as Image", the documents print correctly with no missing letters.
The missing letters seem to come in specific combinations, such as ti, ft, fa, etc.
Our previous print server was a Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) machine and these documents all printed fine on that server.
Are there any known issues with printing PDF documents on a 64-bit print server, or with 64-bit drivers?
Thank you for your time,
Jason

This response will hopefully help you towards a solution—I have not encountered the specific problem you are facing.
The image you posted shows the fonts that are embedded in your document: both Calibri and Myriad Pro. However, the second instance of Calibri indicates that some some of the Calibri characters were encoded differently, and I suspect based on the combo characters you listed, these are glyphs and are what your printer is having trouble processing.
The usual solution for print server issues is to make sure all drivers and firmware are updated.
The answer to your question regarding embedding fonts completely is to change your Adobe pdf print preferences to embed all fonts, not just a subset. This must be done when the pdf is being created initially. You can change font embedding by choosing a joboption like Press Quality that includes full font embedding or by modifying the joboption you are already using. In Windows, you can do this at the time of print by selecting the Advanced button next to the printer selection dropdown and changing settings there, in advance by modifying the printing preferences from your printers menu, or by editing the joboptions in Acrobat Distiller.

HT201412 My apps are all unresponsive like my PDF Printer, Evernote, Skrappy. I can't open the apps.

Why all my apps like PDF Printer, Evernote, Skrappy are not working? If I tap the icon it doesn't do anything. They are all unresponsive. I restarted my IPad se veral times already and they still unresponsive.

If it's all downloaded apps from the store that you are having a problem with then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.

I am not able to print or to do a print preview with firefox 5. The problem happens with my Xerox Laser printer and also with Bullzip PDF printer. All prints are white with the printer and empty with the PDF printer.

I have a Phaser 6280DN and Bullzip (PDF virtual printer). They work perfectly with firefox 4 and with other application on my notebook running Windows Vista. But I am not able to print with firefox 5. All prints are white or empty. My notebook is a Dell Vostro 1710 with 3GB RAM and 500GB HD.

Your ISP can only determine that their equipment is responding to ping requests. They can determine nothing about your equipment or if theirs is communicating with it.
Disconnect the Ethernet cable that comes from their equipment and connect it directly to a computer instead of the Extreme. If you can load web pages, it means your Internet connection is working. If not, it's not.
Is your ISP supplying cable Internet? Sometimes it is necessary to reset your ISP's connection by disconnecting their coaxial cable that connects to their modem. Literally unscrew it and leave it detached for a minute or so, then screw it back in again and power up the modem. They call this a "full reset". I don't know how it differs from simply powering down the modem, but I have confirmed that on rare occasions doing this will reset a recalcitrant connection.

The Wi-Fi icon "bars" show that a connection to a wireless network has been established. It conveys no information about an Internet connection that lies beyond your local network. Option-click that menu and select "Open Wireless Diagnostics..." Authenticate with your Admin name and password and click the Continue button. Some useful diagnostic information and suggestions will result.

E Mail documents and PDF documents are printing incorrectly.

Any document that I print directly from my email is printing off way too small. I checked all of my printer settings and they are okay. What next? I feel this has to be directly related to the Email App. Even PDF files are printing off incorrectly, no matter what adjustments you make in the PDF settings boxes. How do I fix this? I am so frustrated, and I have wasted a ton of paper trying to get this right. PLEASE HELP ME!

Did you try either printing from the browser File menu, or downloading the items to your computer and then printing from there?

Script needed to print complete contents in scrolling text field Acrobat Pro 9 (MAC)

I've seen this question several times in my search but no real solution. My client wants a form with text fields that only show 1-2 lines when viewed on-screen but are scrollable so that the user can input a lot of text. I had no problem creating that. The problem occurs when I try to print the form. Only the visible lines of text print and not the entire contents of the field.
Is there a Javascript that I can assign to a Print button in my form that can be assigned to the Mouse Down action that will make the entire field contents print? I even recreated the form in WORD so that when the user inputs text into the field, the contents of the form move down the page. My client didn't like that approach. I'm not a programmer and so I haven't been able to write my own script to handle the printing issue. I'm MAC based so using Livecycle isn't an option for me. Thanks!

I'm using Acrobat Professional 9. I used to use Livecycle which was more flexible, but I no longer have a PC, only MAC and Adobe doesn't make Livecycle for the MAC.
The client doesn't want larger fields unfortunately. They have questions that require 2 or 3 pages of information to be entered into a small text field but they don't want large fields. If they're reviewing the answers online, it's fine - they can just scroll through the text fields and read the answers but they don't want the completed text fields to expand unless the form is printed.
I've already set up my text fields to be multi-line and scrollable so that the client can review all of the text in the field if they are looking at the saved PDF online. The problem I'm having is that I need the entire contents of the text field to be visible ONLY when printed out. They don't want larger fields to show in the form. The client was quite specific about it. The form is also going to be used infrequently, so collecting the data and storing it on a server isn't something they're particularly interested in. The information is also confidential, so they do not want me to be collecting and storing the data and sending it back to them in another format. The easiest option I could see was to create a script tied to a PRINT button that printed out the complete text field.
Thanks!

Problems with Writable PDFs and MACS - content not viewable unless clicked on

I am having problems viewing documents in Adobe Reader 9. Students are downloading a writable PDF from our system, saving it with content, then uploading it back to the system. All Mac users' documents are coming back blank unless clicked on. For some reason, all Mac PDF's are appearing blank until each individual field is clicked on. Once you click a field, the information shows up until you click another field then the information disappears in the old field and shows up in the new field.
We really need to be able to view and print these documents so if anyone knows of a quick fix please let me know! We are trying to print all of the applications tomorrow.

This is due to Apple's improper handling of pdf files with its Preview Application. This will not happen if your users use Adobe Reader. You can find a fix for individual files here: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html

Print context content on a client local printer

Hi All,
We need to print the content of my context node using local printer of the client PC. We cannot use Adobe Forms because it is not supported on our UNIX platform.
We tried to use some Java libraries, but print goes to J2EE's server printer.
SAP EP is placed in Internet, not in Intranet.
May you help us?
Regards,
Matteo.

Are your clients PCs also running UNIX?
If they are Windows systems, you could export the context data to Excel and print from there. There is a tutorial here in SDN.

Print html content of an JEditorPane

Hello!
I have an JEditorPane with some HTML Content displayed (as it is displayed in a browser).
Now i want to sent this content to a printer.
After some search i found the DocumentRenderer class from this link:
http://www.fawcette.com/javapro/2002_12/online/print_kgauthier_12_10_02/
It may be trivial, but i don't know how to create a HTMLDocument Object from my JEditorPane (and its contents).
Maybe somebody can help me out with this.
my code so far:
DocumentRenderer renderer = new DocumentRenderer();
HTMLDocument doc = new HTMLDocument();
//At this point i don't know how to get my JEditorPane/it's contents "into" the HTMLDocument Object
renderer.setDocument(doc);
renderer.print(doc); Many thanks in advance for help!

find it out by myself.
HTMLDocument doc = (HTMLDocument)myJEditorPane.getDocument();But now i ran in another problem:
Checkboxes are not displayed when i print this content.
Is it possible to solve this problem?
