Per application default page setup

Is there any way to provide an application-specific, NOT system-wide, paper-size default setup for printing?
For example, with Acrobat Reader I want a custom paper-size default setup of no margins so that the PDF prints at its original size/scale, but with Safari I want a custom paper-size default setup of 1" margins for printing web pages. However, when I specify the no-margin custom paper-size default setup for Acrobat, it becomes the system-wide default for all applications. This is NOT what I want at all.
Thanks for advice and help

You can make use of Presets. Create different presets for Acrobat Reader and another for Safari. That way, when you print, you only have to choose the preset you want to use instead of going through each print dialog pane for your print settings.

How to set a default page setup in P6?

Hi,
Anyone know how to set a default page setup in P6?
Thanks,
Manuel

Hi Manuel,
For printing, the settings are stored within the layout. If you have one layout containing the settings you use, you can then use this layout as your template and do a 'Save As' every time you make your changes.
Hope that helps

How can I change the default page setup for printing messages in Apple Mac Version 4.6 (1085)

How can I change the default page setup for printing messages in Apple Mac Version 4.6 (1085)

As soon as I posted, Ifigured this one out on my own by going into user settings and changing the default there. Then I was able to delete the default @mac account. Thanks!

How do i change the default Page Setup settings?

I have a recurring "bug" - whenever i open a PDF - and usually when i create new files (in any program), the default setting is to have it print horizontally at 65%.
to be more concise, if i open a blank document in "Text Edit" as an example and go to Page Setup - its already set to 65%, rotated horizontal - - instead of vertical orientation at 100%.....
This is frustrating, as I often forget this - go to print a PDF - and it comes out very small and rotated 90 degrees.
This even happened when i recently got a new printer and had to install / setup a new driver.
I was able to get it to stop a long time ago by deleting all of my printers and starting over from scratch - but the problem quickly resurfaced.
(I think it may have something to do with receiving a PDF from a third party that had this setting to allow me to print a larger drawing onto letter sized paper - - but it seems to overtake all of my files as default.)
I hope i explained this clearly.....what i would like to do is know how to definitively change this "default" setting.....

Hi, no idea why AAPL said what was said, just too busy I think!?
Anyway, have you tried File>Page Setup..., then setting the Scale, Size, & Orientation, then same Window>Settiungs>Page Attributes>Save as Default... or even the Restore Original Defaults there?

Set default page setup settings in adobe acrobat so adobe reader prints to tray 2 on my printer by default?

I want to set a tray on my printer to be the default for just adobe reader without setting the default for windows. When i set page setup settings it reverts to the defaults when i open new PDFs and i want this seetin to save.
Thanks

I would suggest creating a second instance of the printer in Windows with tray 2 as the default tray - select that printer from Acrobat.
Control Panel > Add Printer > Create the Printer
Control Panel > Printers > Printer Properties

Default page setup not matching with document size.

working on Acrobat X 10.1.4, windows7 64bit, have created lots of boards in AI saved as PDF in Legal size but when opening to print thru Acrobat it always defaults to Letter, why cant Acrobat detect size? this is very annoying.
I did try using "choose paper source by PDF page size", same problem,
Can anyone please help me.
Thanks

Use Page Setup to set what you would like as defaults. Before clicking OK, choose Save As Default from the Settings popup. If you have more than one printer, I suggest selecting your default printer, as well.

Default page setup

Hi
I have a pdf which I need to print.
The preview window shows portrait A4.
It prints the first page portrait and then the rest as landscape with only 1/2 the page printing.
I have searched for default settings but have gotten no where.
My print dialog box default is landscape every time I open a PDF document even though the pages are portrait.
I am using Acobat XI Version 11.0.03
Can someone help?
Billy

Hi DesignMac
Welcome to Discussions.
From the menu File > Page Setup select Portrait and then in the Settings at the top, open it and select Save As Default.

Setting Application Default Page

Hi,
I have an application that I want the start page to be the HOME page instead of the LOGIN page. I looked every where in Application Builder but I could not find how to change the start page. Is there a way to change the start page of my application?
Thanks,
Bashar

Scott,
Let me explain the actual problem that caused me to ask the question. I am testing an application that I built using HTMLDB. I created a DNS mapping to the server and I redirected index.html file in the httpd.conf as follow:
RewriteEngine On
Redirect /index.html http://www.AmanaTrans.com/pls/htmldb/f?p=101:1
When I type www.AmanaTrans.com it redirects me to page 1 correctly. Then I click on a tab to go to a page that requires login and I get the login page correctly. Then if I try to login the login page stops logging me in and stops redirecting to appropriate page. It will just stay in the login page without any errors and I am sure the user name and password are correct. If I change the redirect statement to not include a page in the url it will take me to the login page directly and the login page will work correctly. The redirect statement looks like:
Redirect /index.html http://www.AmanaTrans.com/pls/htmldb/f?p=101
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Bashar

Adobe Reader X Print Default - Pages per Sheet

I have an old HP Laserjet 2200 series printer. When printing from Adobe (no other application), the default "pages per sheet" is 2. In the dropdown option box, 1 page per sheet is not listed! The only solution I have found is to select "Custom" from the dropdown list and specify 1 page per sheet. How do I correct this problem and specify Adobe's default of 1 page per sheet for all documents?

Are you referring to the print dialog in Reader or a driver setting?
For one page per sheet of output, one would normally would use the Size option as opposed to the Multiple option which was designed for 2 or more pages per sheet (although it will let you specify a custom setting of 1 x 1 pages per sheet.

How to load a default page in web based application ?

Hi
I am new to j2ee , I have an application in which , when i start the application , login.html should be open by default .
One way i found is that put the page name in <welcome-file> tag inside web.xml.
My question is that there any other way like calling the dafault servlet or something else by which we can load the default page ?
Any kind of help would be great.
thanks in advance.

Hi Rastogha,
that sounds (to me) like the right way to do this. I suppose another way would be to have index.html redirect using a meta tag, but that's a little messy IMHO.

Default paper size in page setup

I have 3 different printers, each with specific paper sizes. My HP C3180 uses letter size only. My HP Officejet pro K850 uses tabloid (ledger) size only. My Toshiba e-studio 20s has a tray for letter and another for tabloid. My problem is that when I set the default paper size in page setup, it changes the paper size for all three printers! How do I set a different default paper size for each individual printer?

Thanks. I'm really disappointed that apple had to dumb-down Leopard. It really makes it difficult to use my macs in the office. I hate to say it, but score one for the PC on this one. I'm really frustrated, and this will definitely affect future purchases (Apple, did you hear that?)
Thank you.

Currently this is not possible because a global style in both themes will have the same class name, _globalStyle. Whatever class the top-level application loads the sub-applications and modules will have to use the same class because of the flash player first-class-in-wins rule.

Unable To Print or Access Page Setup in Crystal Reports 2008

I have Win 7 32 bit, and installed Crystal Reports 2008 last week (v12.0.0.683 from the Help window).
Every time I open a report, and from the Preview tab clicking File -> Print, or File - > Page Setup, I immediately receive a Windows message that "Crystal Reports has stopped working". After a few seconds, another Windows message displays "Crystal Reports has stopped working - a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". Then Crystal completely closes.
I downloaded sample reports from the BO website, and still receive the error, so I don't think it's the report.
When I view the Event Log, I see the following:
Faulting application name: crw32.exe, version: 12.0.0.683, time stamp: 0x47c8be9a
Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 6.1.7600.16385, time stamp: 0x4a5bdadb

Report Id: 3cfc99e6-8bb8-11e0-b8ef-00248122792c
I have uninstalled and reinstalled CR 2008 multiple times and continue to receive the same error. I tried updating to SP1 (Version 12.1.0.892 Incremental) but I receive the following error: "A BusinessObjects product at a lower patch level is detected. The installation cannot continue. Please update all installed products to the SP1 patch level, then restart this installation".
Need to print my reports - any ideas?

Sorry busy on Support cases and they take precedence over this community forum.
Very interesting....
In a test application I use I have this routine to get the local printers:
private void frmMain_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
     if (System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters.Count > 0)
          foreach(String myPrinter in System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters )
               cboCurrentPrinters.Items.Add(myPrinter);
          cboCurrentPrinters.SelectedIndex = 0;
     else
          rdoCurrent.Enabled = false;
          EnableDisableCurrentControls(false);
     //For printers exposed to System account as per MS Kbase
     //http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;184291
     //Look to HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Devices
     Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey mySystemPrinters =
          Microsoft.Win32.Registry.Users.OpenSubKey(@".DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Devices");
     foreach (String defaultPrinters in mySystemPrinters.GetValueNames())
          cboDefaultPrinters.Items.Add(defaultPrinters);
     if (cboDefaultPrinters.Items.Count > 0)
          cboDefaultPrinters.SelectedIndex = 0;
     else
          rdoDefault.Enabled = false;
Note the MS Kabse on where the printer registry is. Now the odd part is on one of my test development PC's it won't populate the Default User Printer list, only the Local User Printers. I take this same app to another PC and it works just fine. The register keys are there but for some reason on my Windows 7 64 bit it won't show them, the other strange part is I have full access to both keys. I have not been able to figure out why this happens...
I'm thinking this may be related to your issue.... But I don't have a solution, very strange... I've even gone into regedit32 and set full permissions on the various keys and it still doesn't work...
I have other VM-ware images if I need to get past that part for testing so I never drilled into why, I believe it has to be some Windows/Firewall/Anti-virus configuration or something our IT department pushed into my local Profile.... What that is I don't know unfortunately.
I'll do some looking and testing. You may want to post this on Microsoft forums as well.... Ask about printer permissions.
Thanks

Page Setup -- printing on tabloid pages

This simple problem in Acrobat X (10.1.0) is causing me to go back to Acrobat 9:
When I need to print to a tabloid-size page (my printer contains both sizes of paper), I cannot find "page setup" anywhere except in the print dialog box. When I click that button then the following message comes up:
"The Page Setup dialog box is provided by the operating system. To ensure that you can use the full print capabilities of Acrobat, please set all print options from the Application print dialog box. Do you want to continue?"
Oh yeah? Where IS the Application print dialog box? Isn't that what I was just in?
In Acrobat 9, if I wanted to change the printing paper size, I could go to File>Page Setup and change the size and IT WOULD REMAIN AT THAT SIZE UNTIL I CHANGED IT AGAIN.
But in Acrobat X, I must click this button EACH TIME I print to get a size other than the default [which is governed by my Mac's setting for Print/Fax (OS X, 10.5.8)].
Can someone tell me what I'm missing? It should be simple... (like it is in Acrobat 9).

After selecting Page Setup in the Print Dialog box (going through the warning), I then chose "Paper Size: Tabloid", and BEFORE I exited THAT page setup dialog box, I switched from "Settings: Page Attributes" to "Settings: Default". (Note that the "Settings: Default" attribute immediately bounced back to "Settings: Page Attributes".)
But it seems to work! The page size stays Tabloid (or A4 or whatever) until I change it again -- no matter whether I open a different document or quit Acrobat X and start it again.
It's not intuitive... and I was not having any success in finding an answer or a workaround.
So thank you so much for your response!
Hope that someone else having the same problem will find this thread.

How to change page setup in reader 10.0.1?

Can anyone help me out with this one please, each time I print, I need to change the page setup from Landscape to Portrait, I would like to know how to set this as default but only for Adobe Reader.
I know that if I change the setting on the Printer then this will set it permanently for all applications, but I only want to set it for PDFs.
If it cannot be done, please let me know, or if this has been fixed in a later version of Reader please let me know so I can try this.
Thanks

You cannot. Each time Acrobat or Reader starts it simply reads the attributes of the system default printer. It does not store any attributes.
