PFD's -- can 'font size' and 'page formatting' be user-controlled?

Can the *font size* and *page formatting* -- including *page size* -- of a PDF document be altered for printouts?
Also, does this vary from one PDF reader to another, or is it pretty much standard?
Thanks.

Can you explain why you want to do this? There may be a solution.
One reason is that many PDF's print in a larger font than I would like. I was imagining having control of the page layout and appearance the way you do in most situations, and wondering whether PDF's could be similarly controlled by the user -- at least in those respects (I know they are not designed to be 'edited').

  • How do I use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

    every time I go to a site I have to zoom in 3 times. I saw an answer that said use an extension to fix the zoom so it would stay where I wanted it. It gave two extensions to use, but I don't know where or how to apply them.

    Here are two I've tried in the past:
    * Default FullZoom Level: [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/]
    * NoSquint: [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/]
    After installing an extension and restarting Firefox, you can use the extension's Options dialog to adjust the starting zoom level. If the extension doesn't have its own menu entry or toolbar button, you can usually find that Options button here:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Any luck?

  • How do I change the font size and line height (so font will fit) in my inbox?

    In order to make the information containing the source and subject of my incoming e-mails (from Netzero) easier to read, I would like to make the font larger. However, when doing so, the line heights stay the same and the information on each line is vertically compressed. This actually makes it more difficult to read.

  • Can we change font size and font type in reports

    Hi All Technical/Functional Masters,
    We are developing some transactional reports in ISU. this report has 20 columns to be printed. On screen, display is not a problem but client has a requirement to download this report in PDF format and wants to print on A4-paper in Landscape. Although we have managed to accommodate all the columns on A4 paper but have to compromise with font size that are very small and not visible. If we download the report in excel format we are able to maintain the font size 8 and accommodate all columns after little format but same in PDF is a problem.
    Can anyone tell whether we can increase the font size and change font type(from SAP standard to 'Arial') before sending the output in PDF ? Is there any property or utility that can be changed or used for this purpose.

  • A mode to change font size and bold in every page?

    Due to problems described here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1012057?esab=a&s=&r=0&as=s I have clear that I need something (an extension, maybe) that allow me to recognize and change font size and bold of the fonts in every page.
    Does exist something like this?
    Maybe also for bookmarks toolbar...

    Hi RichterB,
    You can change this in the Content Settings of Firefox. Go to "3 bar" menu and click on Options. Click on content and uncheck "Let websites choose their own styles" and select a bold font type.
    Also try [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/ Sytlish].

    I didn't say double-click on the tab. I said double-click on the tab selector's text. You need to use the "hand" tool if you have "Lock automatic tool selection" off in your LabVIEW options.

  • Pages Copy & Paste Style Buttons don't change font size and style?

    Shouldn't the font size and style also be copied and pasted when I use the buttons to copy & paste the style within a page?

    Hello
    It seems that the description of these buttons in the Help is not clear.
    After several attempts, one may understand that they don't apply to attributes inserted "by hand" with cmd + B for instance but to "styles" defined in the Styles drawer.

    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the third-party developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, email the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

  • Font size and user form

    Hello,
    I'd like to know if somebody find a solution for the font size issue on user form.
    since BO 2005, the user can change the font size. the application will format all the controls of form with the good size.
    However, the layout does not follow very well for user form.
    If the font size is changed while a user form is open, the aplication will reformat it perfectly, the controls are bigger, and the distance between the controls are ok
    But when the user form is open again, it keeps the distance and control size of the XML file but change the font size, so the layout is very bad, sometime the static text or the caption could not be read, so it's not possible to use the form as is.
    I use XML to create form, I haven't try by code, but in my case, I can't use code because there are a lot of controls in the form.
    Any idea if it's possible to call the Business One procedure to resize the form and its control (not only the font) ?
    Thanks you

    Try resetting the FontSize of all items (and columns) to the one you used for the design after loading the form.
    I use a simple loop over all items and an inner loop for matrixes and grids to set the font size in their columns.
    Now users can have a larger font, but the added forms will use the original design's font size.
    This approach has some drawbacks:
    - Added forms use a different font size
    - Some of the controls will still get their size based on the system default font size
       (checkboxes, drill-down arrays, headercolumns, perhaps more?).
    - Focused item is not resized by this (so far I have been able to work around this).
    - Changing the font size while the form is open, will break the design as the
      font size does not change, but the control sizes do.
    This is not an ideal solution, but it might give some help, until a better one presents itself.
    If the users don't use a dramatically different font size, my form design work quite ok,
    even with the drawbacks or at least it is better than nothing. It is a good idea to test
    the form with different font sizes to make it more flexible.

  • Set-up custom font, font size, and color for writing new and reply e-mails in Thunderbird

    I know that I can select the font, size, and color for writing each new and reply e-mails in Thunderbird, but I don't want to have to do this each time. I want to set-up the default font, size, and color for all new and reply e-mails. It already comes up with a default one, but I want to change it, but can't figure out how to do this. I'm sure it is quite simple, but I don't know how to do this. Thank you in advance for help.

    Tools > Options > Display > Formatting tab
    Default font: select font
    Select size : eg; 14
    Click on 'Advanced' button and set all the sizes to 14
    Select : 'allow messages to use other fonts'
    click on OK
    Click on 'Composition'
    Under the 'General' tab
    Suggest you set HTML font to 'Variable width' and Size : 'Medium'
    Select the 'Text colour' you would like to compose email using
    Select the 'Background colour' you would like to use when composing emails.
    click on OK to save all changes.
    This will set the display email list to the selected font.
    It will allow received emails to use the font the sender used.
    When you compose an email it will also use the same font settings.
    The message 'Display' settings in the above section also apply to messages that you compose. The settings are not sent, so they do not affect how your messages appear to recipients.
    The settings in the ''Composition' section can affect how messages are sent. If you make unusual choices, then people who receive messages from you might find them difficult or impossible to read. Hence, why I suggest you leave it as 'Variable width' and allow the 'Display' settings to set the default used for composing emails.

  • Why ist the printed font size smaller then the choosen font size in pages

    Hi,
    sorry about my english it´s a lot of years agoo i used it.
    since a cuple of months i choosed a mac mini to be used as my favorit pc-system. Now i am using pages to create letters and stuff like greeting cards, posters, flyers and so on.
    In this i´ll find a problem between the choosen font sizes and the printed paper.
    If i choose a font and size like arial 12, and start the print job of the lettert with my Printer (Samsung 3170 MFC or Samsung 315), the size of the printed font is very smaller than the in pages choosen font (seen on the screen.
    If i use MS offce it is the right size on the screen as on the printet paper.
    What do i wrong?
    Greetings from Hamburg Germany

    Maybe because your document isn't displayed at 100% but at 120% on your screen.
    On my iMac, to get the same size on screen and on paper, the zoom factor must be 142% which can't be done thru the available interface.

  • How do i change font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion.  Everything is greyed and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which are now invisible?

    how do i change font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion. Since upgrading,  all fonts are grey, instead of black,  and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which also are grey and almost invisible?  And if you can asnwer this, can you tell me how to get back the email format I had before the upgrade?  I no longer have column headings and I'd like them.  Thank you. 

    Do you know about changing the font colors for ical, and the color of the scroll bars?
    No, I don't. I don't use that program; I fiddled with it just now, and could not find a way to do that.
    Perhaps someone else will have an idea.
