Printing a template in pdf @ 100%

Help
I have some templates i need to print and cut out,
The templates are bigger than A4 paper,
How can i adjust my printer settings so that it prints them at 100% as they are shown in the pdf file ?
When i attempt it,i get half the template out on 1 sheet of paper and thats it !
Obviously they will need to be printed over 2,3,4 sheets of paper,
Heres the templates below,
I have an HP C5180 all in one,Mac OSX

Thank you so much,
Ive been beating my head against the wall over this i have managed to print them out over sheets of A4 paper
Thanks again Bernd

How to print a pdf @ 100% 10cm on screen = 10cm on print

I cannot seem to print pdfs to any printer wireless or wired at 100%.
If i put 100% and choose boarderless paper the print out is one size if i choose with boarder it prints out a different size.
furthermore in both cases the print is not even 100% 10cm measured on screen will not be on either print outs.
This has been driving me mad! i've played around with a few of the preview settings ie switching between 1 image pixel equals 1 screen pixel and size on screen equals size on printout.

In testing your symptom to a Canon MG6150 I get exact reproduction. I created a 10cm x 2cm box in InDesign and printed that at 100%. That measued correctly.
I then exported the document to PDF and opened in Acrobat. With the ruler enabled I could see the box was 10cm x 2cm. And when I printed it with page scaling set to 100% the box was the correct measurement.
As for the borderless vs border, my understanding of borderless is that it will enlarge the document to fill. Often in the driver settings you can adjust the amount of extension so this would impact your image reproduction.

Can't print .indd booklet to PDF; opens print utility instead of Acrobat

Thanks in advance for any help you can lend.
I have a 16 page .indd document that I'm trying to export via "print booklet", using Adobe PDF 9.0 as my printer. Every time I try to print as a PDF, it goes through the process of compiling the images, loading fonts, etc., but then my printer utility opens (obviously giving an error) instead of Acrobat. When I just choose export as PDF I have no issues whatsoever; Acrobat opens and it saves properly. I need the document, though, in a saddle stitch imposed format for the printer.

I'm a Windows user, so I may not have this exactly right, but printing to PDF from Print Booklet on Mac is a two-step process -- first you printto Postscript file using the Acrobat 9 ppd, then you distill the file.

Printing an iframe with pdf using javascript is not working in IE8 and above

I have a problem with printing and Iframe with PDF in IE 8 and above
Following is my javascript:
var urlValue="";//Path of the file to be printed
var div = document.getElementById("printerDiv");
div.innerHTML = '<iframe src="' + urlValue + '" id="frame" name="frame" style="width:100%;height:100%;"></iframe>';
frame.focus();
frame.print();
This same thing is working fine in other browser but for IE is just not invoking the print dialog.
Also I tried to get the frame.print(); on load of the frame but even that is not working exactly as that way it print the parent window in output.
Few things I tried like:
1) div.innerHTML = '<iframe src="' + urlValue + '"
onload="this.contentWindow.print();"></iframe>';
2) frame.contentWindow.focus();
frame.contentWindow.print();
3) window.document.getElementsByTagName('iframe')['frame'].onload = (function () {
frame.focus();
frame.print();
I need to get the print of only the content which is in Iframe which I am binding in "printerDiv" by javascript.
Any perfect/different solution from which I have tried then please post here?
Thanks.

PDF documents are hosted in an ActiveX or netscape plugin control which have their own printing functions.
Start>Adobe Reader>Edit>Preferences - to adjust what functionality the PDF document viewer addon displays (menus etc).
Tools>Manage Addons>Show all addons
make sure you have both the x86 and x64 versions of your PDF reader Active X control installed and enabled. I would recommend also that you update to the latest version of the vendors' (Adobe?) plugin.
Possibly you have disabled scripting of ActiveX controls in the IE security zone that your parent page maps to. Also there is an IE security zone feature that prevents navigation to a domain in a zone of lower integrity.
Tools>Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default".
when asking developer related questions it is helpful if you can include a link to your website.

Adobe Acrobat, Print multiple files to PDF and merge open files to closed files?

I have Adobe Acrobat XI Professional.
Print to PDF – How can this be done for more than 15 documents at a time? Right now, if I select 16 or more documents, I cannot ‘right click’ and choose ‘print’. Is this a setting issue? If I have many documents I need to print to PDF at once, it would be helpful if there wasn’t this limitation. Background: This needs to be done to PDF files created from Adobe Live Cycle (and possibly from other software) because the files cannot be merged unless they are ‘printed to PDF’ first. I don't know an alternate way to merge these files.
Also, if I have a multi-page PDF open and I need to parse out the pages to different files, is it possible to drag the selected pages out of the open PDF and hover over a closed PDF and have them added to the end of the closed PDF document? I don't know of a way to do this, but I thought I would check to see if anyone else was aware of a simpler way to parse pages from one document into several pre-existing documents without opening each and dragging the files between them.
Thanks!

Thank you for your response...I can do the additional step to combine them, the problem that I have is that the documents need to be in chronological order. If I print them to the pdf printer or export them, either way, windows sorts them and they are no longer chronological. While I can organize them when I combine them there are many times that there way too many that need combined into one pdf, making it a very inefficient and cumbersome process to do. So I was in hopes there was a way to just have the pdf printer create one file instead of one for each document, it would keep them in chronological order. I suppose I could number them on the print to keep them chronological - but when there are 75 or 100 documents it is a bit of a pain to sit there and respond to each document as it is being printed, and then need to do the additional step of combining. My goal in this process is to gain efficiency so thought I would see if anyone knew how to use the pdf printer to create the single file.

Logic Pro 8: unable to print score. saves pdf and print files as blank

hi guys,
i cannot print my score from logic pro 8. anyone else have this problem? i get nothing but blank pages when trying to print or save as pdf file. also blank in preview. all other programs print fine. i was on the phone with apple tech for an hour and he couldn't solve it. he had me uninstall and reinstall program and still same problem.

It may be that in your page set up (under the file menu) you are not at 100% but some large number like 2,386. This has happened to me and all I got was a blank page.

I can't continously print 4x6 cards on Laserjet 100 mfp175

I can't continously print 4x6 cards on Laserjet 100 mfp175. I have to push the "OK" button to manually load them 1 at a time. i have tried everything from setting up a 4x6 card in print properties for Word 2007 to setting 4x6 on the set up configuation of the printer. for tray 1 setup.
Trying to print flash cards for a test.
Dave

Great Czar, soundsl like you are having issues printing continuously on 4*6 photo paper on this laserjet. From what I see you set the information in Word for when you want to print the photos, but have you gone through the driver to be sure that the printer is anticipating 4*6 prints? If you check on page 50 of the manual it will tell you how to do this so that it is set for the default - which might correct the issue for changing it with each print.
http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02476565.pdf
Let me know how that goes and I will get back with you as quickly as I can!
I hope you are having a wonderful week, and I hope that the weather where you are located is as beautiful there as it is here!

TURBOTAX 2014 CD DOES NOT PERMIT OFFLINE PRINT OR SAVE TO PDF. YOU CAN ONLY SAVE TO PDF OR PRINT IF ONLINE. BIG SECURITY ISSUE. INTUIT IN WSJ ARTICLE BLAMES APPLE, SAYING APP STORE SOFTWARE RESULTED IN THIS. TRUE?

Starting this year, Turbotax CD/download versions will not permit people to print tax forms when offline. If you try to print while not connected to the Internet, you receive the warning “There was a problem connecting to Intuit’s Secure Print Service. Please check your Internet connection or try again later.” Indeed, Paragraph 9 of the Intuit Software End User License Agreement states: "You may save your return as a PDF file and understand it may be processed on Intuit servers, not as part of the Software."
Even if you wish to protect your data by not exposing it to the Internet, Turbotax will not let you without sharing your entire return first with them. They prohibit you from only printing locally on home, cable-connected printers.
The result of this is that people who tried to be safe by never going online with tax data, are this year being forced by Intuit software to expose all their sensitive tax information files to the Internet and Intuit print server, even though they do not wish to. Turbotax is putting you at risk.
On Feb 19 the Wall Street Journal quoted an Intuit spokesperson blaming Apple: According to Julie Miller, an Intuit spokeswoman, TurboTax made the change “because the Mac product requires a special, third-party code library to support offline printing.” And she says, “based on Apple App Store guidelines, we could no longer distribute the third-party library with our software.” She said the change in the TurboTax Mac software was first made for 2013 tax returns, but last year customers had the option of printing returns without being connected to the Internet.
So is Apple to blame that I now have to expose my sensitive tax data to Intuit just to be allowed to save to PDF on my hard disk? And it's all Apple's fault?
Can anyone clarify this?

Thank you for this an the other posts. Particularly for Barney,
I have just discovered that Turbotax actually permits you to print (and save to PDF) documents from the Help
Center built into the program, even when you are OFFLINE. Works just like normal printing is supposed to. It just won't let you print actual tax forms. So I guess they were willing to violate Apple’s rules when you print information from their help center offline, but you just can't do the same with your own tax forms. Clearly this shows that what Intuit told Forbes was a fabrication.
They do in fact have the proper code in the program for printing and saving to PDF. They just deny you usage of that code for printing your tax returns, which they want to copy. I don’t think there can be any doubt about what they are doing. Surely they are not deceiving apple by allowing the limited print function?
We can only hope that a brave journalist will challenge them on this, since Intuit will not respond to customers.
Thank you for any views on this points.

Print Module templates layouts do not update on the fly

Print layouts do not update on the fly when attempting to choose between various Print Module>Template Browser> Lightroom or User templates. This occurs in all three Layout Styles. The very first layout chosen in Single Image/Contact Sheet, Picture Package, or Custom Package is the permanent 'default' and cannot be changed. The Preview will show as expected however any image stays stuck in the very first layout I chose after installing LR4 beta.
For example, I first chose Template Browser>Lightroom Templates>Maximum Size, and Layout Style>Single Image/Contact Sheet. Clicking through any other Templates (Lightroom or User defined) will alter the preview but not the layout display in the Print window. Same problem in either of the other Layout styles. I have been trying for days to rectify this, but it seems somehow more difficult than LR3. and not what I expect.
As a comparison, using the same steps in LR3 works perfectly as all print template/layouts can be changed on the fly as expected. I have no problems generating different layouts in LR3 and have been using LR print module since version 1 without this issue.
Is this a bug or are there any extra steps or workarounds I have not discovered? Any other testers seen this?

Update with more info. What am I doing wrong, if anything?
Print layouts do not update on the fly when attempting to choose between various Print Module>Template Browser> Lightroom or User templates. This is not a hang since the layouts do not change after the initial choice no matter how much time elapsed.
iMac OS 10.6.8. 8GB RAM.Processor Intel Core 2 Duo. NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS.
The steps as follows:
1) Lightroom 3.6 & LR4Beta exist side by side.
2) LR4 Beta> Print Module;
3) From filmstrip choose image;
4) Template Browser> Lightroom4Beta Templates>Maximum Size;
5) Preview displays as expected;
6) Layout Styles>Single Image/Contact Sheets
7) Template Browser> Lightroom4Beta Templates>click through any other templates (Lightroom or User defined);
8) Image layout in main window does not update;
9) Previews update;
10) Layout Style>Picture Package;
11) Template Browser>Maximum size is then automatically shown, however the template in the main window is actually (1) 7x5, (2) 2.5x3.5;
12) Any further attempts to change the layouts regardless of Style Layout choices are not successful.
13) Close LR4Beta>re-open LR4Beta;
14) Repeat test;
15) Print Module layouts do not update on the fly as expected;
16) Close LR4Beta and all applications;
17) Reboot iMac.
18) Open LR4Beta only;
19) LR4Beta>Print Module>Template Browser >Lightroom Templates>Maximum Size;
20) Image displays in main layout window with Template and Preview display as expected;
21) Choose different image>Template Browser>Lightroom Templates>Maximum Size;
22) Click through templates, layouts DO NOT update in main window although previews do automatically update.
23) CONCLUSION - In Lightroom 4 Beta>Print Module>Template Browser, image layouts do not change after initial choice as expected.
I posted this on Photoshop.com as a problem.

Edit print layout template for dunning letters

Hi,
Our customer want to edit the dunning letter template. They want the TOTAL which is a system variable field be seen also in the start of report
I copied this field from "Field_057," which is the field with the same name in the end of the report, then pasted it in the above area. (because I wanted to show the total due balance of the BP in the middle of the report as well, However, I believe merely copy and pasting in another area does not work. The following error occurs if I try to print the template above:
Printing error:Invalid variable number (RPT-6300)(Field: Field_203) Variable '148' [Message 200-38]
The selected field ("Field_203" is what I believe causes the error when printing because only when I add this field does the error occur).
Can you help how we can have the same data in the start of report.
Thanks,
Janice
Edited by: Gordon Du on Apr 30, 2010 10:23 AM

Hi Gordon,
Thanks for your reply. Do you mean it is not possible to have the same data in the start of report? Is there any other workaround like creating a fromula?
Thanks,
Janice

Printing reports issue (Word/PDF/Excel...)

Hello Apex masters,
Here's the deal:
I have a page in which I have
1. report - "sql query" type: "select * from dual", Print Attributes: Enable Report Printing=Yes, Output format=PDF (default options)
2. button item: "Apply filter", Button Request=Filter
3. Branch: target type=page in this app, page=same page, when button pressed=APPLY_FILTER
Behavior:
1. If I login, open this page, use the "Print" url from the report, a PDF file is successfully generated.
2. If I login, open the page, click on the "Apply filter" button and then use the "Print" url from the report, an empty PDF file is generated. (same thing happens for Word,excel etc...)
I also have some other items on the page, but I guess that it shouldn't make a difference.
My workspace is on apex.oraclecorp.com.
Thanks a lot,
Andrei

Andrei,
Given that you' re running this on an Oracle internal site, could you email me login information for your workspace or re-create this sample on a workspace I can access?
Thanks,

Acrobat won't print to installed printer, only to adobe pdf file

This is a sudden problem, started about a week ago. When I open or download a pdf file - any file - and try to print, the print box reads "adobe pdf." No matter which installed printer I try to print to, the entry flashes back to adobe pdf. This happens in Acrobat 7. I downloaded the newest version of Reader, and it does the same thing. No, the print to file box is not checked. These files can be opened and printed from any other computer in the office, so it's not the files. Using Windows 7 and the printer is HPx476dn. Help?

Hi Maureen,
Can you please elaborate your issue?
Do you want to set a different printer as default printer?
If yes, then please follow the steps in this KB doc. Change the system default printer

Reinstalled Acrobat Pro 8.1.6 won't let me print web pages to PDFs

I'm really ticked at Adobe's "help" in updating the program only to cause a lot of misery. I'd read Acrobat had a security update, and got a constant reminder from Adobe update to install the available update. I've been using Acrobat Pro 8.1.6 with absolutely no problems printing web pages to PDFs. I installed the 8.1.7 update which immediately disabled Acrobat completely. So I wasted a lot of time uninstalling Acrobat and reinstalling sequential versions to get back to 8.1.6. Now I can't print web pages to a PDF.
I had NOT done anything else to installed programs in the meantime, except that probably Norton has automatically updated antivirus files in the background. I don't have any problems using Acrobat to open and print an existing PDF, or to create new PDFs from my scanner. I can do a hardcopy print of a webpage by selecting my Brother printer. From Word 2002 and Excel 2002, I can create a PDF by "printing" to Acrobat as usual. The only problem is creating a PDF by "printing" a webpage by selecting Acrobat as the device from the list of available printers. This problem happens both with Firefox and with Internet Explorer 7.
I have Windows XP Pro SP3. I did the most recent Windows Tuesday security update several days before messing around with Acrobat and did not have any problems printing PDF files from Firefox or IE7. So, it seems like it's clearly an Adobe Acrobat problem. I get the small box saying "Preparing to Print" which goes nowhere and then I have to use the Task Manager to get out of the loop. That closes Firefox, and when I reopen Firefox, the same webpage comes up.

How Can I Create a Print Button on a PDF Using Acrobat Pro That Will Also Work on iOS?

I created a Print Button on a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat Pro on my Mac. The Print button works perfectly on different browsers on my Mac and on Windows (running under Parallels Desktop) as well.
When I open the document on my iPad the Print button doesn't even appear. I am guessing that this is a Flash issue but it may be more related to the fact the the action for the button is to access the Print menu item, which doesn't exist under iOS.
Is there any way to create a Print button using Acrobat Pro that will work on a Mac and Windows but also on iOS?

In order to initiate printing by clicking a button, the button has to have either an "execute menu item" type action or use the "print" JavaScript method. As you guessed, the former won't work since there are no menu items to execute, and the latter can only work if the particular PDF viewer you're using supports it. I'm not aware of any that do on iOS.
The button doesn't appear because you're probably opening it in the default PDF viewer, which doesn't support forms at all. If you were to open the form in Adobe Reader, you'd see the button but it wouldn't work.
