Printing a list from Contacts via Pages

I'm not sure if this is an Address Book question or a Pages question, but I am posting it here.
I want to print a list of my contacts from the Address Book via Pages so I can format it appropriately. I have looked at mail merge, but that seems to insist on a page break between each record. what's the best way to do what I am trying to achieve ?

Thanks, but having read it that looks a rather long winded and clumsy approach to the problem.
Actually, I've just done a bit more Googling on the problem and I realize there is a print option I was overlooking (when I expand the print options) that will create a list of all contacts.
Hmm, looked at that a bit more and there is not much control over which fields are included, won't really do the job.
Is there really no off the shelf Apple solution to what seems to me to be a pretty basic and frequently wanted requirement ?

  • Print headshot Photos from Contacts

    Apple, thank you for the 10.8.3 update, but please bring back the ability for us to print Headshot photos from Contacts (See "Attitributes" when printing).  I need the ability to create Photo Directories.  I am sure others used this feature as well.  It worked great BEFORE Mountain Lion.  Even though "Photo" is check-marked in "Attributes," it still will not show the headshot photo.  Again, I used this feature at work in order to create Photo Directories.  I am a choral conductor and my choirs have been bugging me for an updated Photo Directory.  Please bring back this feature.

    Apple engineers do not read these threads for enhancement requests nor bug reports. This is a place for people to ask questions and other users to answer them.
    I recommend submitting your suggestion to Apple themselves via http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html. They read every report your send.

  • Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed

    We are planning to Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed. I have tried using the AIR appliaction and it worked, But our requirement is NO INSTALL to the user machine for the silent printing. It is just from web page and silent printing to the default printer to the desktop/Laptop. Can anyone share your thoughts and experience with us. It will be very helpful..
    For AIR : I tried the thread Re: AIR and PDF showing/silent printing

    Hey CodeMonkey & Ross,
    Did you either of you ever find a solution? I'm stuck too, it seems I can get remote printing on all these PDFs to work but it just prints a blank page since I've been using Javascript in the browser, not Adobe's (they are Engineering drawings that I do not have permission to edit so I can't just insert code into them but I need to make work instructions). I've been scouring the internet for hours now, it seems that this thread is the only relevant/useful one at this point. No one else was trying to achieve this for similar reasons to mine.
    Thanks guys,
    Lox

  • Error printing pick list from IW32

    Hi all,
    When trying to print pick list from transaction IW32, I get this error message:
    Express document "Update was terminated" received from author ...
    When I checked out this error message in SM13, I found this:
    Transaction code: IW32
    Module name (function): PM_ORDER_PRINT_CONTROL
    Status: Update was terminated
    Raise exception: KEY_NOT_FULLY_SPECIFIED (Complete key not entered)
    The shop paper (pick list) is customer defined (Z*) under application area O (Maintenance orders). This shop paper is set up to print to a certain printer, P1, and printing other PLM documents on this output device works fine.
    Does anyone have an idea what can be causing this error?
    All helpful answers will be rewarded.
    Best regards,
    MV

    Hi,
    I have tried to print the pick list several times, in development, test, and production systems. It fails with the same error each time.
    Do you have any ideas why this error occurs, is there any special IMG activity or PLM configuration that I could check to see if some printer settings are wrong?
    Regards,

  • I am trying to send a friend a group email list from Contact.  When it arrives there is only one contact in it.  There should be 30!  Any ideas?

    I am trying to send a friend a group email list from Contact.  When it arrives there is only one contact in it.  There should be 30!  Any ideas?

    The procedure for exporting a group is to right-click (or Control-click) on the group in Contacts and select Export Group vCard, then email the resulting file to your friend. Is that what you're doing? If not, give that a try.  You can confirm the contents of the file by doing a Quick Look on the file.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I do a mail merge from contacts to Pages?

    The old version of Pages allowed a simple mail mail merge with Contacts.  The "What's New in Pages" document says you can still mail merge from Contacts, but I'll be hanged if I can figure out how.  Will someone please tell me how to mail merge from Contacts to Pages?  Otherwise, I've got to learn a new word processor.

    There is no built-in mail merge feature with Pages v5. Apple only supports mail merge if you are willing to either create your own AppleScript application or use pre-written AppleScript solutions. Examples are here and here. Pages community discussions about these are here by the developer.
    If you are unwilling to do engage in AppleScript, then fall back and use Pages '09 v4.3.

  • When I print list from contacts, its not alphabetical.

    Contacts are disappearing from my address book frequently so wanted to print a list. When I tried, it wasn't alphabetical. How do I get it to be alphabetical?

    Gobsmacked by this loss of capability in the latest upgrade.  Yes, you can use iCloud, but cannot specify any fields - this is a step backwards.  To be unable to print a list in alphabetical order from any contacts database is unbelievable.  Maybe if Contacts would allow cvs export, or say, ANY format other than Vcard, I could work around this.  Anyway, at least I can stop wasting time trying to figure out what I did wrong.  Will file "bug report" with Apple.

  • When printing mailing labels from Contacts how do I change the label size?

    I want to print mutliple labels from a group in Contacts. I can print 20 labels per page but I want to print 14. I have tried every option in the pop up window but nothing lets me change the label size, 

    Hi 786menzies,
    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I understand that your print jobs from Photosmart 5520 seems very small.
    The font size is controlled by the software program that the document was created in, for example any Microsoft Word document that you send to the printer the font size would have been chosen in Microsoft Word.  I've included two different documents on how to change the print settings; one for Mac and one for Windows 8.  These documents will show you the process on changing print settings if not the actual steps as you may not be using one of the operating systems mentioned.
    Changing Print Settings in Mac OS X
    Changing Print Settings in Windows 8

  • Confusing listing on "contact us" page... funny

    If you look at the following page
    http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/contact/index.jsp
    Under phone numbers there is the following listing.
    Customer Service - Prepaid
    Dial *611 from your cell phone
    (888) 294-6804
    24 hours a day, 7 days a week
    Late last night I wanted to really get a hold of customer service.  From viewing that listing I presumed that there was an option to prepay to have 24 hour customer service. 
    It turns out that is really "Customer Service - for customers with prepaid plans".
    The customer service rep I spoke with about this was a little confused about the "Prepaid Customer Service" option until I directed her to the contact us page.  Then we laughed a bunch.
    Perhaps I'm the only one who ever thought about the listing this way. Although, a little clarification couldn’t hurt.
    Have a good day everybody!

    Theres a couple of ways to make a contact form work..
    easiest is to just pass the contents of the form to your visitors eMail client and have it sent this way. I tend to call these "mailto forms" - like described here: http://webdesign.about.com/od/forms/a/aa072699mailto.htm ( or google "Mailto form" for more tutorials on this topic). However, mailto forms are very "basic",  not all visitors can use them, and are often considered downright unprofessional.
    The "proper" way to handle forms is to use a scripting language like PHP or ASP and have the server process and send the form content. This,  unfortunately, does require a web server that is capable of running script files - and either obtaining a premade script to do so, or a fair bit of programming experience in whatever script language you choose to write your own,
    Most hosting companies will provide you with a script to use for your contact form and have instructions how to use it, so you might want to ask your provider first. If that doesn't get you anywhere, seems like the current formmailer script of choice here on the board seems to be dbmasters formm@iler, which can be found here: http://www.dbmasters.net/node/19 . (or google "form mailer script" to find dozends of others).

  • Print event list from iCal

    I manage different calendars, private, work, hobby etc.
    Now, I would like to print a list of upcoming events from one of those calendars.
    My iPhone has a "list" option that does exactly what I want, but I can't print that.
    I have tried File/Print selecting only the wanted calendar and a date span, but I don't get the expected result.
    iCal will print ALL the days within the time span, including dates with no entry. I would like to see only a list with events...
    Is this possible in iCal?

    The only way I have found takes a few steps, but it is not too complex.
    - It requires the desired events to have a common set of characters in each event so the Search function will pull them out together (e.g., xxx, day, class, etc.).
    - These common characters can be in the main event text box at the top of the event, or they can be anywhere in the event (in the location field, in the note section of the event at the bottom, etc.)
    - Next, be sure the Calendar is selected on which these events are listed (top left corner click on Calendars and put check in the appropriate box(es).
    - Next, click in the Search box in the top right of the main Calendar window and type the common characters set you entered in all the events (e.g., day).
    - This opens a window pane at the bottom of the Calendar window.  To make the window pane larger click on the top of the window pane and drag it towards the top of the screen.
    - In the window pane is a list of all the events that meet your search criteria.
    - Click on all the events you want to print (<shift>mouse click on a range and <command>mouse click work here)
    - Select print Calendar (File/Print, <cmd>P, ...)
    - In the print window, first select or unselect the Calendars to print (so only the desired Calendar keys print)
    - Next, in print window, at top in View, select "Selected Events"
    - Select the print options you want
    - Click on Continue, with takes you to the Printer window, and select the print and click Print (or PDF)
    Done!
    I believe this is much harder than it should be. I haven't yet found a 3rd party app that makes this any easier.

  • Printing a selection from a web page, word document etc.

    It embarrasses me to say, I cannot find a way to print a selection--a paragraph for example--from a web page or a Word document. In Windows it's done with a few mouse clicks: file/print/selection. I'm sure there must be a simple way to do it in Leopard, but what is it?

    While there is no "print selection" command, you can use one of the globally available services to open a new window in textedit containing your selection, then print it.
    Select something and then go to Safari>Services>TextEdit>New Window Containing Selection
    and a new textedit window will open with your selection pasted in. Now you can print it.
    I suppose if you do this a lot, you could write a short applescript that'll do this, print it, and quit textedit, and then stick the script in the script menu. Just a thought.

  • Passing result list from Contact search to Target group

    Hi,
    I have to pass the result list of Contact serch(BP_CONT_SEARCH) to Target group creation component(SEGED_TG). Can you give me the steps that I need to follow.
    Note: Here the contact structure is different in each component.
    Thanks.

    Yes Srikanth, you need to bind context of result list to SEGED_TG using component controller binding. Let me know if you have questions.
    But the question is did you make a navigation from the contact search result to target group creation or is it a standard functionality ?
    As per my knowledge we can navigate from Profile set creation creation screen or from Trade Promotions.

  • Printing a listing from an array of objects

    I know I'm missing something simple here but for the life of me I can't spot it. The code below should print a list of student names to the screen. At the moment it only prints the last name entered into the array. I will kick myself when I see the answer but can anyone suss this out ? Many thanks for any help.
    // A Program called StudentDetails3.java which inserts student names into an array according to
    // a calculated hash Index and then prints out the name list in this order
    import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
    public class StudentDetails3
    // Member Section
    // Private members
    private static String studentName;
    // Public members
    public static String input = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(" Please enter the number of students in the class : - ");
    public static int maxNum = Integer.parseInt(input);
    public static int hashIndex = 0;
    // Constructor Section
    StudentDetails3 ( String newStudentName )
    studentName = newStudentName.toUpperCase();
    // Method Section
    public int hashCalc()
    int total = 0;
    for( int charNo = 0; charNo < studentName.length(); charNo ++ )
    char letter = studentName.charAt(charNo);
    int asciiVal = letter;
         if( studentName.charAt(charNo) ==' ')
         asciiVal = 0;
         total = total + asciiVal;
    hashIndex = total % maxNum;
    return hashIndex;
    public void output()
    System.out.println(" The student's name and hash index is " + studentName + " " + hashIndex );
    static class DetailsStorage
    // Member Section containing the array into which the student objects will be inserted
    private Object [] array;
    private int current;
    // Constructor
    DetailsStorage ( int noOfStudents )
    array = new Object[ noOfStudents ];
    current = 0;
    // Method for adding name to array
    public void add ( Object StudentDetails3 )
    {  if ( array [ hashIndex] == null )
    array [ hashIndex ] = StudentDetails3;
    else if ( (hashIndex + 1) <= (array.length-1) )
    do
    { hashIndex = ( hashIndex + 1 );
         if ( array [ hashIndex ] == null )
         {   array [ hashIndex ] = StudentDetails3;
         break;
    } while ( (hashIndex + 1) <= (array.length-1) );
         else
              for ( int firstLp = 0; firstLp < array.length; firstLp ++ )
         if ( array [ firstLp ] == null )
         {   array [ firstLp ] = StudentDetails3;
                   break;
    public void printOut ( )
    {   int loop = 0;
    System.out.println ( " Name\t\tCourse " );
    System.out.println ( "____\t\t_________ " );
         for ( loop = 0; loop < array.length; loop ++ )
         System.out.println ( ( ( StudentDetails3 ) array [ loop ] ).studentName );
    // Main Program for testing
    public static void main( String[] args )
    {   String  name;                                              
    // Obtain list of names from the user
    DetailsStorage nameList = new DetailsStorage( maxNum );
    for( int lp = 0; lp < maxNum; lp++ )
    {   name =  JOptionPane.showInputDialog(" Please enter the name of student in full ( e.g. Gareth Edwards )");
    StudentDetails3 newDetails = new StudentDetails3( name );
    newDetails.hashCalc();
         nameList.add ( newDetails );
    newDetails.output();
    nameList.printOut();
    System.exit(0);
    }

    You've made the student name a static field, which means that there's only one for the whole class.
    So the last one you input is the one you use for everybody.

  • Printing Picking list from LT31

    Hi all,
    I have to print a picking list from the TO & WH as input...
    i have created the smartform and a driver program with two input fields TO & WH.....
    and it worked perfectly....
    now user wants to use the tcode LT31 for printing ...now i want to know how to pass the values of TO & WH from screen of LT31 to my driver program...
    thnx
    RK

    Hi,
    There is a transaction called 'OMLV' . Here you have to configure your smartform as well as the print program. There is a program called RLVSDR40. You can use it of your own zprogram. This is a program for print control for warehouses with Storage Unit Management.
    In the print code , Warehouse Number segment  of OMLV you have give the 'Print program name' and Warehouse movement segment you have to pass your form name.
    You can ask your functional owner to do the configuration.
    Hope this will help u.
    Thanks,
