Portfolio pdf- why is text in different sizes on each page of pdf?

Even though i have saved my images with text (always font size 12) as the same size (eg. 10in x 10in at 100ppi), each time i save the images as a pdf the pdf then has all different size text from image to image- a complete mess as a portfolio.
Also when i then changed the size of the image and saved it as a copy, both images and text stay the same size! though both the ppi and scale differ in each images....
How do i change this? any tips appreciated!

You can't write directly in PDF from Output Module, only add a header or
footer text but that will repeat itself each page.
You could try so in an app like Word or if you have Pages or other design
application it would be possible to make your own layout and text and from
there save as PDF.
You can also try in PS, just create a template frame (new file) big enough
to paste the images in and with space around including more at the bottom
where you add the text you want. On the frame put a text layer and the file
layer for the image by either drag and drop or copy paste. Resize the image
till it fits in the frame
You cans resize the image on the template layer to fit in the frame as you
like and save as new files.
Now you have same sized frame with same ppi and font size.
With this files selected in Bridge in the order you want choose Output
Module with option for paper size, landscape or portrait, background color.
Choose 1 column and 1 row including auto space, deselect filename and
extension and also deselect header and footer if thy are not so already
(unless you want some text and page numbers)
I created the images in photoshop and then i use the bridge adobe output
module- the pdf is a multiple page document with one image per page which
has text written beneath the image -
as in the image is saved with a frame with title/text.
Is there a way of writing individual text directly onto each pdf page
instead of the image? perhaps this will solve the issue of differing text
sizes....?

Save each page as PDF naming mod

I had an issue I needed help with a while back, now I need to mod the script.
Here's the original post
Peter Kahrel, ""Save each page as PDF" naming mod?" #1, 16 Jan 2008 8:00 am
I have a 456 page document that was made from a data merge. It has a background image, a foreground image and a job number/description.
I need to save each page out as a jpg and name the file with the contents of the "jobnumber" text box. Previously Peter Kahrel helped me out tremendously with a little function that looked at the job number (which was always PNXX-xxxx) and swapped it out with the real job number.
Now the contents of the jobnumber field isn't structured, i.e., "AvocadoSwirl_V", or "BurntSienna_G".
Is there a way to set a script label for the "jobnumber" text box and just name the output file whatever is in there?
Here is the existing script:
var destinationFolder = Folder.selectDialog ("Choose a Folder");
var myPDFExportPreset = app.pdfExportPresets.item("WebVidOverlay");
doc = app.activeDocument;
doc.sections.everyItem().includeSectionPrefix = false;
app.findTextPreferences = null;
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = 'pnxx^9^9^9^9';
found = doc.findText();
for (i = 0; i < found.length; i++ )
f = File (destinationFolder + "/" + found[i].contents + '.pdf');
app.pdfExportPreferences.pageRange = found[i].parentTextFrames[0].parent.name;
doc.exportFile (ExportFormat.pdfType, f, false, myPDFExportPreset);
As always, Thanks a million,
Randy

>Does that sound do-able?
Most things are doable, provided that your information is precise: first you say that pages may or may not have a text frame labelled "jobnumber" and that that frame may or may not have text in it (your post can be read like that anyway). Now you say that every page has a text frame labelled "jobnumber" and that that frame can be filled with either of three text strings. Or maybe all three strings? You say
>then I should be able save each file with the names "Avocado.jpg", "Burnt Sienna.jpg" and "pnga-0431.jpg" respectively.
Or do you mean "save each file with the names "Avocado.jpg", "Burnt Sienna.jpg" _OR_ "pnga-0431.jpg" respectively."? The way you phrased it, it looks as if you want to save three files from a page. But your example shows that you meant "or", not "and".
But anyway, the last two lines of your example appear to make clear what you want. The attached script exports each page of the active document to JPG, using the contents of the text frame labelled "jobnumber" on that page. The script assumes that each page has such a text frame and that there is something in it, and that whatever is in it provides a legal file name. It doesn't do any error checking/catching at all.

Different headers on each page of a Pages document

I searched for this, but every answer seemed to be some variation on "there's no reason to put a different heading on each page of a document". I do require this function, though, and was wondering if there's any way to do it.
Thanks in advance for the help.

I found on my computer, if you click on the header you can change it on each page. There is also a place in Set Up under Sections at the bottom of the page that has a drop down to create a new Section either 'Starting with this section' or 'After this section'. Hope this helps. Also at the top there is a place under Headers & Footers to choose either 'hide on first page of section' or 'match previous section'. I believe if you deselect the 'match previous section' you can easily change the header or footer for each page.

How to add an image or static text in the header of EACH page of a cross-Tab report

Post Author: rtutus
CA Forum: General
Hi, I use Crustal 11.0.
I have a cross Tab. I display the items on the left column and the months horizontally, the items are grouped by category field. The values are the sum of quantities are displayed for each month. Like this:

The problem, I want to add a page header for each page of the report.
When Crystal reports first displays my cross-tab in the designer, CR displays the cross tab in the Report header section. I d like to add text or image for each page and not only at the begining of my Cross-Tab.
If I just add an image or text at the top of the report designer, which is my report header, I get the image or text only on the begining of the 1st page of my report but never in the other following pages.
If I try to work around the problem and move the cross Tab to a group section instead, and then put the Image in the group header, I get what I want, but the problem is that:
The columns header: Jan, February....December are displayed for each group of my report and not only in the beginning of the report. I get something like this:
                         Items         Jan       Feb       March .....................Total

You see the months get duplicated. Any way, my real need is to add an image or text in the header of EACH page of a cross-Tab report.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi Divya,
you could do for example in the wdDoInit() of the view
wdContext.currentContextElement().setPicture("picture.gif");
Now you assign this context variable to the Tab using the Tab_header's imageSource-Property. When you click on its value column, you see a button with three dots on it. If you click on this button, you will get all context nodes and attributes for this View. Usable variables are clearly marked, you now choose the one named Picture or what ever name you prefer to use. But it must correspond to the one set in the wdDoInit.
I think setting a picture (not necessarily for the tab-page) is done in one of the excellent tutorials. If you are a newcomer I strongly recommend doing some of the tutorials. I have learned tremendously from them.
Hope this helped

Add different header for each page

We are using RTF templates to create XML Letters.
1) Is it possible to have different header for each page?
2) Can we have a data filed column in the header?
Thanks,

Ha ha, Thanks, that is exactly what I needed! How perfectly obvious, but somehow easy to miss! Thanks so much.

Is it possible to have different headers for each page for the Pages app?

I just purchased the Pages app for my ipad and it happens to be one of the best apps i've ever bought. However, I'm having trouble figuring out how to have different headers for each page of the same document. Is this possible to do?

Tommy,
One of the limitations of Pages for iOS on your iPad is that Pages can't create sections per se. The best you can do is insert page breaks and then assign different columns to that page. The problem comes with the headers and footers - in iOS Pages, the headers and footers apply to the whole document, not the individual sections as you would find in Pages '09 on OSX.
The workaround is to create your document on OSX, insert the needed sections and headers, save, then transfer the Pages document to your iPad either as a working "blank" or as a new document. The headers and footers will reflect the sections you created in OS X, but you won't be able to add any new ones or new sections on your iPad.

Why do I get different size redings?

I just noticed while looking through my iTunes music that it shows two different sizes? If I look at the "music folder" in my iTunes folder it calculates to 28.62GB, but when I open iTunes and look at the bottom it reads "2184 songs 6.8 days 19.82GB? Why the different size readings.
Also what is the best way to get rid of duplicates? I have a music folder and my wife has a music folder (on her machine) and I have two back ups of music folders from long ago that I have forgotten about on my back up drive. Whats the best way to consolidate every thing and NOT be storing a bunch of duplicates?

Thanks StarDeb55:
I checked and I do have a Unknown Artist folder 1.36GB and a Unkown folder 8.4MB. They have misc music in them including a lot of old system sounds, but no movie files. I have ripped some movies but they are all in my movie fold on my local HD and my back up HD. So that accounts for about 1.44GB of space?

Why does lun show different size on different rac nodes?

Hi all,
We are trying to increase ASM disk space and with respect to it when we are trying to allocate more space this question came across my mind. Now this was previously configured by my previous SA.
[root@oracledbtest1 ~]# /etc/init.d/oracleasm querydisk -d `/etc/init.d/oracl
cut -f2,10,11 -d" " | perl -pe 's/"(.*)".*\[(.*), *(.*)\]/$1 $2 $3/g;' |
while read v_asmdisk v_minor v_major
do
v_device=`ls -la /dev | grep " $v_minor, *$v_major " | awk '{print $10}'`
echo "ASM disk $v_asmdisk based on /dev/$v_device [$v_minor, $v_major]"
done
**ASM disk ASM01 based on /dev/dm-15 [253, 15]**
**ASM disk ASM02 based on /dev/dm-14 [253, 14]**
node 2:
[root@oracledbtest1 ~]# /etc/init.d/oracleasm querydisk -d `/etc/init.d/oracleasm listdisks -d` |
cut -f2,10,11 -d" " | perl -pe 's/"(.*)".*\[(.*), *(.*)\]/$1 $2 $3/g;' |
while read v_asmdisk v_minor v_major
do
v_device=`ls -la /dev | grep " $v_minor, *$v_major " | awk '{print $10}'`
echo "ASM disk $v_asmdisk based on /dev/$v_device [$v_minor, $v_major]"
done
**ASM disk ASM01 based on /dev/dm-13 [253, 13]**
**ASM disk ASM02 based on /dev/dm-14 [253, 14]**
Now, can any one help me in telling why are my LUN's showing different sizes on RAC and also the best way to allocate the space to the disks in the above scenario.
P.S I am fairly new in posting to the OTN. Please excuse if I am not clear with my question.
Edited by: 902932 on Apr 8, 2013 8:25 AM

why you think the space is different between the 2 nodes?
The devices are different, that's ok, dm- is the device mapper name, and several devices will create dm-* like entries, so it's ok to have them different.
When you add a disk, you should follow an approach like:
Present the disk on the storage
Refresh the luns on all the nodes
Create the oracleasm disk on one node
refresh the oracleasm disks on all the nodes
verify the new oracleasm disk is present on all nodes in /dev/oracleasm/disks/*
At this point, you can use asmca or sqlplus in the +ASMn instance to make your asm diskgroup to grow, or create a new disk group

Name Exported PDFs with text from a frame on each page

Does anyone have an idea how to do the following
I plan on creating a document of say 100 pages. On each page will be a photo of a product and some text frames. In one of the frames will be the product's SKU code - which we will enter manually.
What I want is that we can then export each page as a separate PDF and the filename of each PDF will be taken from the SKU code present in the text frame with .pdf appended.
Has anyone done something like this?
Thanks

TS2516 Why does text disappear from some of the pages? No matter what I do, to include reviewing spelling, the text will disappear in preview mode.

Why does text disappear from the pages in my iPhoto book project? When I try to buy the book, it comes up with spelling errors (which are names that the dictionary doesn't recognize), but even after clicking "ignore", the text disappears when I preview the book. Even this is inconsistent because the same words appear on other pages. There is text on other pages that disappear for no apparent reason. This has become very frustrating and time consuming.

Different Background for Each Page of a SINGLE PDF?

Hello Fellow Acrobats,
I work in the film industry and lately, I've been helping quite a bit with Script Distribution. If you work in film then you'll know that we color code each page according to the version of that page. Our first draft is White. Our Second Green, Third Blue, etc. So when we issue updated pages, we print them on the color paper that corresponds to which revision this is. The end result is a script that looks like it was printed on about 10 random colors, but it helps us know we are up to date, so for example, if me and a colleague are looking at something and his page 6 is blue and mine is green, we know his is more recent.
Long Story short with the advent of all these great color portable reading machines (iPhones, Laptops, Blackberry's, the impending iPad) it would be great if I could make a digital version that matched the physical...
Bu when I select a background in Acrobat, it changes the ENTIRE SCRIPT. I don't want to have to export these Scripts Page by Page and then re compile them, so is there a way to select 4 pages and change ONLY THOSE 4 pages background? Then select another 15 and change only THIER background to a DIFFERENT color? or am I going to have to export page by page...

Ha ha, Thanks, that is exactly what I needed! How perfectly obvious, but somehow easy to miss! Thanks so much.

How do you create different headers on each page of a document in icloud pages?

I have to have a different header on my title page than the rest of my paper. I believe I did it once before but it may have been in the regular pages program on my Macbook Pro. I was wondering if there was a way to do it on the icloud and ipad versions of pages due to I do most of my work away from my laptop.
Thanks!

I found on my computer, if you click on the header you can change it on each page. There is also a place in Set Up under Sections at the bottom of the page that has a drop down to create a new Section either 'Starting with this section' or 'After this section'. Hope this helps. Also at the top there is a place under Headers & Footers to choose either 'hide on first page of section' or 'match previous section'. I believe if you deselect the 'match previous section' you can easily change the header or footer for each page.

Printing text on the back of each page

I have a question about printing on the "back" of each page. I am trying to create documents (like Purchase Orders, Order Acknowlegments, Invoices) that have Legal Terms and Conditions that need to print on the back of each printed page(so it needs to be every other page). I can't figure out how to make that happen with reports. My report output is pdf.
I see that a Trailer page has a "Repeat On" property...but that is based on groups. I need it to be based on pages. Even so, they all print at the end.
I also see there is a between_pages report trigger...can I somehow use that?

Ahem.
Pages is a $20 word processor. It is not a clone of Microsoft Word. Pages is a user-friendly app for short documents. If you need strong horsepower, buy and use Word for Mac.

Hi Pop, perhaps your editor will accept your work in a number of small Pages documents. Split your work into several "chapters" in separate Pages docs. If your editor is a Pages user, they will understand.
