Preview Adjust Size Problem

I receive a PDF file which I print on my HP printer. In the past, in order to get the bottom to print completely, I used the Page setup and set the page to 95%--Now on leopard, that command is gone. Under the Tool Menu, there is an "adjust size" option, but it's greyed out for me. Any ideas?

Hey I am looking for an answer to a similar problem (so I'm not expert) but I think I might know something about your question:
If you look at this help page http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8619.html
it shows how you can still access the page setup options. Basically just go file>print then click the arrow next to your printer and the scaling option might be hiding there?
Sorry if this doesn't help at all, I don't know why "page setup" is only sometimes an option. Ridiculous!

  • "Adjust Size" grayed out in Preview now...

    Hi all -
    I am trying to adjust the size of a PDF and a JPEG  in Preview, as I have done so many times. However, the "Adjust Size" option is now grayed out. Does anyone know of a fix for this? Or something I might have done that caused the problem?
    Thanks in advance for help...
    Tara

    Ran the EtreCheck - and thank you for that suggestion! I have copied the report below - is there anything there that you can tell might obviously be the problem?
    Also, I did do a software update yesterday - perhaps there was a little glitch of some sort?
    Thank you so very much for your help!

  • Preview slow & Adjust Size greyed out

    Preview has started running slow and I can't adjust the size of a jpeg file - Adjust Size is greyed out. I'm running OS10.9.1 on a MacBook Air.  Never had this before.  Any ideas please?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.

  • Preview Application Resizing Problem

    Preview Application Resizing Problem
    Microsoft platforms have two significant advantages. The first is the concept of an operating system that can function with hardware that ranges from cellular phones to desktop computers. The second is that Microsoft has excellent software development tools
    for creating and testing computer programs.
    Software compatibility across hardware platforms requires not only meeting CPU and memory requirements. Application programs must be able to automatically adjust Window and control sizes to meet the needs of available window sizes, video display unit sizes
    and screen resolutions, switching between vertical and horizontal viewing, vertical and horizontal scrolling, changes in font sizes , and variations in the available screen space due to usage of vertical and horizontal toolbars.
     Software developers must be careful that resizing doesn’t squeeze controls too close together or make them so small that they cannot be finger or stylus selected when used with touch screens.
    Some of the required automatic resizing options are provided by the Microsoft software compilers and the Windows operating system.  Softgroup Component’s “.NET  Forms Resize” is an example of one of the third party applications that provide advanced
    resizing functionality.
    Many of the resizing functions are programmer options and, if not properly enabled, an application may not have the required resizing functionality. At the current state of the art, application programs are highly variable in their capability to do the “intelligent
    resizing” that is required to handle different display environments.
    A case in point is the Microsoft Preview Application for Windows 10. When entering lengthy comments, the send button becomes positioned off the end of the program window. It is possible to scroll to the button, but the display automatically resets when scroll
    is released. The result is that the text cannot be sent. You can try a "blind" TAB to the SEND button. This appeared to work after several tries, but the comment was apparently not received,

  • Adjusting size of photo prior to emailing it

    Whenever I send an email with a photo attached (from iPhoto) it is huge.  I've checked Help and can't find anthing referring to how to resize a photo prior to attaching to an email.  CH

    To send pic via Comcast email:
    Per RatVega: use Preview to change size of photo   
    Preview > Tools > Adjust size
    Change size by changing height & width > check Resulting Size box
    at bottom of box. Adjust numbers to make file the size you want.
    Save As...Name & put file where it's easy to find, such as on Desktop
    Go to Comcast mail
    Click New > Set up new email.
    Click Attach at top of email window > Attach File window opens
    Click on Choose File > Finder window opens
    Click on the pic file you set up in Preview > Click Choose button
    This takes you back to the Comcast Attach File window.
    Check that your files there, to the right of the Choose File button
    Click Attach at bottom of window
    Wait a couple seconds > email will open with file attached.
    This isn't quite as tedious as it looks. It does get the pic sized & in Comcast.
    Good luck.

  • HP 8750 Paper-Size Problem where it keeps telling me the paper is too big (it's set up for 11x17)

    I've got an HP 8750 printer running with a Windows 7 Ultimate machine, and I've got a paper-size problem where it keeps telling me the paper is too big. It's set up for 11 x 17. 
    The actual wording on the printer is: 
    Paper installed is larger than needed. Press cancel to replace with correct size, if you wish to save paper, or press check mark to continue. 
    When you press the check mark it feeds the paper, but for a multi page-document I have to press the check mark for each page to feed.
    How do I get it to print 11 x 17 paper without having to press the check mark for each page?

  • Lightroom 5 Adjustment Brush Problem?

    When I want to use my adjustment brush, I do not have the second circle show up to show where it has taken the adjustment from the photo. Is there a way to fix this? I was able to use it before and didn't have a problem. But I haven't used the program in a while. If anyone can help me with this that would be awesome.

    When I am advising on weird adjustment brush problems I always say - Update your Mouse and Tablet drivers to the latest version.  Update your video card to the latest driver.  If neither of those fix it, then try resetting the preference file: Resetting (or 'Trashing') the Lightroom Preferences file - Lightroom Forums

  • Preview App printing problem

    Running 10.6.8 on a Quad-Core PowerMac with Canon IP2600 printer via USB.
    Thought I was running out of ink at first, but a closer look shows documents printed from Preview.app are printing only outlines of black characters and black graphics as if everything is in an outline font. At first it was the lower 2/3rds of the page, then 3/4s, now it's the entire page printing black in faint outlines only, very precise (while color logos print normally).
    These docs are PNGs. The same PNG prints perfectly in Photoshop. So I created a doc in Photoshop with two thick, solid, vertical black lines; saved and printed as a PNG and as a JPEG, both print fine in Photoshop. When opened and printed in Preview, both print as a series of very thin rectangular outlines running down the page.
    Started happening out of the blue a few days ago, so I trashed three Preview pref files (showing recent modification dates), restarted and nothing changed. Do I need to reinstall the app? Can't think of any recent changes that might've affected Preview or the printer, no updates or installs in the past few weeks. Preview displays onscreen as it's supposed to.....
    Anybody have a clue what's going on here? The only other Preview.app printing problem I can find has to do with printer color profiles.....
    Thank you for any suggestions, I'm stumped!
    Mike

    Well..... duh!
    The real mystery is why docs in Photoshop continued printing long after Preview had quit printing those SAME docs. Photoshop never did fail to print - but a new ink tank/print head solved the problem.
    Good thing ya can't LOSE points for asking stupid questions, huh.
    D'oh!

  • Finder Preview image size

    Is there any way to get a larger Finder Preview image size?
    ( I've already got the column view very wide )

    Hello Williams
    I guess you want this:
    Goto any Folder... Press Cmd+J.. this appears a Box with tab Icon Size...
    No, I'm not talking about ICON size. I want a larger Document Preview size in the "Columns Display" mode of the Finder. Select a Jpeg image, then click the little triangle "Preview" to see a preview of the image file.
    There is a max size that is used, and to scan quickly through a folder of images, you can turn on the "Preview image", and then use the down-arrow on the keyboard to quickly step through the images..... But... I'd like to be able to set them to a larger size than the Finder currently allows.
    There must be some parameter in one of the Prefs files or some such which controls the max size the Finder will show...
    Anyone?
    Thanks!

  • Adjusting size and resolution question!

    I'm trying to adjust size/resolution of a collage that I created so that it will look good when printed on a 20 X 30 canvas.  How do I know the proper size and resolution to change it to?

    We don't even know what program you are referring to, so it will be impossible to advise. In any case, usage questions are best asked in the product specific forums.

  • How can I adjust size of default action frames

    Hi, How can I adjust size of default action frames they are very thin.  I have tried double clicking on that part I think it is in the actions but can only adjust the drop shadows etc not the actual size of the frame ie like in the wooden frame.
    hop you can help

    I think I get what you meant now …
    The »Transform Current Layer«-step in »Frame Channel – 50 pixel« might be the one you want to edit (»Toggle dialog on/off« for example or replace it with a newly recorded different transformation).

  • Is there a solution to Rapidweaver Stacks Cache size problems?

    Is there a solution to Rapidweaver Stacks Cache size problems?
    My website http://www.optiekvanderlinden.be , has about 100 pages and is about 250MB in size. Every time I open RapidWeaver with the Stacks-plugin, the user/library/cache/com.yourhead.YHStacksKit folder grows to several Gigabytes in size. If I don't  manually empty the com.yourhead.YHStacksKit Cache daily, AND empty the Trash before i turn off my mac, my Mac still has problems and stalls at startup the next day. Sometimes up to 5 minutes and more before he really boots. If i have a been working on such a large site for a few weeks without deleting that cache, than my iMac doesn't start up anymore, and the only thing left to do is completely reinstall the iOs operating system. This problem doesn't happen the days i use all my other programs but don't use Rapidweaver.
    Does anyone know a solution and / or what is the cause of this?

    once more,
    i just launched my project in Rapidweaver, and WITHOUT making any changes to my pages, the cache/com.yourhead.YHStacksKit folder filled itself with 132 folders (total 84Mb), most of them containing images of specific pages etc. The largest folder in the cache is the one with the images of a page containing a catalogue of my company, this folder is 7Mb. It seems by just starting up a project, immediately different folders are created containing most of the images in my project, and some folders with a log.txt file. Still i don't see the reason why it is filling op a huge Cache even without making changes to the project. I have 2 different sites, so 2 different projects, and i get this with both of them.

  • Size problem with Email sent from SAP

    Hi everyone,
    All our layouts today were developed with sap script
    We started to send them by mail, using the standard way.
    in the process they are converted to PDF format from OTF, because of this activity the size of the mail that I am getting is 1 Mega where as the source is only 300K (approximately).
    We are already flagged the option of compressing.
    As we see now we don't have any option to make the email to be smaller.
    Is someone already encountered this problem? What option do I have? (Except of developing the layout again in Adobe)
    Thanks allot
    Udi
    SD consultant

    First thanks
    Sayali Paradkar , we used in the past this function module, but it was even worse.
    We started to use the standard process of sending mail.
    As we understand the program of converting OTF format to PDF cause the size problem.
    And its define to send PDF out of the SAP, also we are using SAP definitions to compress all files :nSE38 -> RSTXPDF3 -> option FLATE_COMPR_OFF = OFF
    But still the mails are very big,
    Thanks again
