Printing PDFs with more than one page size

A large client sent me a PDF of mostly usLetter-sized pages, but with some in-line 11 x 17" pages he intended to Z-fold. I was able to vary the size of the bounding box within the Windows drivers by selecting "Choose Paper Source by PDF page size". That way I would eliminate the vast white spaces created by putting letter-sized images within an 11 x 17" bounding box, or alternatively, shrinking or masking 11 x 17" images to fit a letter-sized bounding box. With the advanced settings of our printer's drivers, I was able to program the two paper sizes into the print job.
I can't seem to find a control like "Choose Paper Source by PDF page size" in my Mac OS X v. 10.4 (or 10.5) drivers. Are they absent or am I?

Mike, it's a production run with lots of copies and lots of pages per copy, so it'd be too labor intensive to be cost effective if there's a high-tech way of doing it.
That way is to put it on a Windows workstation to gain access to the "Choose Paper Source by PDF page size" control that the MS drivers offer. This sets the bounding box rather than the paper as the interface mistakenly indicates.
Then use the PCL drivers because of the way Microsoft's PS drivers position the images.
Make sure to set your letter-sized body pages to 2-sided and, if you can, your Ledger-sized pages to 2-sided, flip on short edge.
Again, it's a shame that the Adobe/Apple interface doesn't offer the same ability that the Adobe/MS interface offers.

    As you see the information of the table TA_AUSGABE will be just prined into spool. When I have only information for one page everything
    work fine, but as soon there more information to be printed I cannt open my pdf file with the spool info anymore.
    What could be a reason?
    Please urgent

    Hi Denis,
    The code works for me for printing more than 1 page.
    Pls try giving the spool id manually  in report RSTXPDFT4 and see whether it gets Multi pages in pdf and let me know if you have any issues.

    It describes a way of using Views to break down the pages.

  • "print package" with more than one photo?

    I like the how the Lightroom 2 "print package" feature allows me to print multiple sizes on one page, but can I print both multiple sizes and different pictures on one page? This would be ideal for printing for a scrapbook, and would waste less paper.
    If I can't do this, please consider this feature for another release.
    Thanks,

    For it to be worthwhile book-making should have its own module.
    As a comparison, check out the video tutorials for LumaPix' FotoFusion, currently at version 4 at the following link: http://www.lumapix.com/web_about/about_tutorials.shtml
    Be prepared, though, as you may find it worth purchasing due to its numerous features. At the very least, it is something to use as a standard for comparison sake.

  • Can the new numbers export PDF as more than one page?

    I just upgraded to the new version of Numbers for OS X Mavericks and it seems I can not
    see my document as different pages or even export a PDF as several pages.
    Thanks,
    Alex Neuman

    Hi Alex,
    It took me a while to get my head around the difference between Export to PDF (everything on one page) and Print, where we can 'Print to PDF'.
    Do this:
    Menu > File > Print...
    You will see Print Preview. At the bottom of the panel on the right,
    click on Print. It won't print yet, but will take you here:
    Now we see Page 1 of 4 .
    Click on PDF to go here:
    Choose Save as PDF to a folder of your choice (mine is called Desktop Temp). In Finder, open that folder then double click on the PDF to open in Preview.
    Then Print from Preview.
    Phew.
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • Printing page range in document with more than one page #1

    I have an insurance application which has 24 pages numbered 1-6 then restarting 1-18.  This is not just the page # at the bottom of the page but the page number that Adobe Free Reader is showing.  When on the last page the top of the screen shows [18] 24 of 24. 
    I want to print the first page 5 which works fine when I print current page or a page range.  Then I want to print 1-12 of the second section which I have tried printing as 7-18.  This gave me the pages numbered 7-18 of the second section.  But if I try printing page 1-12 I get 18 pages or 1-6 + 1-12.
    Any help would be appriciated.
    Thanks,
    Paul

    Change the Preference from using logical pages to physical pages and then select the physical pages.
    You should provide unique names for the page numbers when you apply page numbers to the PDF and you need to fix them if you merge PDFs.

  • Answers Request -- PDF with more than 600 pages

    Check the PDF settings (if any) in your instanceconfig.xml
    You can set a range of values, but the one you're probably looking for is;
    "MaxVisiblePages"
    Although I think the default value is 1000, so I'm a bit confused why it's not working. Give it a go anyway.

  • Sites with windows with more than one page open on top of each other

    Sometimes when I go to a new site, pages load on top of each other.

    Well, I don't know if this image is going to upload, but I did a screenshot so you can see what I mean. It happens on other websites, too. Remember transparencies, the clear plastic letter-size sheets you could write on? It's like stacking 2-3 sheets on top of each other, with each sheet saying something different. It looks like a jumbled mess. And it's not pop-ups.

  • Forms with more than one page

    I have a form page that I am creating, an application which
    consists of seven pages. Normally I would link my continue button
    to page number two, etc. to connect the pages. Page 1 has a form
    and I want to be able to press the submit button at the end of page
    seven and have all the information within the form pages (1-7) to
    be submitted to my email simultaneously. Is that possible to link
    the form pages? Thank you. If not does anyone know of a good form
    program?

    Hi
    Catch the values of page one on page two in the form scope
    and you could
    then set them as a session variable value, repeat this
    process for each
    page and on the final page you submit your page and use the
    session
    variable values to do with whatever you need them to do.

  • Web pages with Tiff with more than one page! Can only see first page!

    Hi
    Please help me out. This is kind of a big issue for me.
    For work I need to visit regularly a webpage which contains a number of official documents that have been saved on the webpage as Tiff files with multiple pages.
    I can only view the first page on the ipad!
    I think this is a problem linked to quicktime, as I also have it on my pc I open the documents with quicktime whereas on with Windows Life photo Gallery, I see all the pages...
    thanks in advance

    I don't believe there is a single app that can view any but the first page of a multi-page tiff currently available for the iPhone or iPad, though a few paid iPhone "doc-viewer" apps' descriptions would seem to imply that they could.
    However, if you are able to upload these files to google docs, then use the **desktop** version of google docs via Safari (there's a small link to this at the bottom of the page on the default mobile version), it will correctly display and navigate to each page of your multi-page tiffs. This is completely free, and you could probably stream-line the process to your needs, but it does seem like a lot to go through for such a simple feature. It's possible that this would work with equivalents to google docs as well.
    You're right that you're not alone in needing this feature. It seems like it should be quite easy to implement, but no app appears to have done it. Maybe requests to the writers of several doc-viewing apps would do the trick, especially given the importance to enterprise.

  • Problem with printing more than one page (ghostscript broken?)

    Hello,
    since one of the last package updates I have problems with printing more than one page. The print problems occurs as well with pdf files as well with printing websites. I use an actual KDE system with commercial turboprint printer driver. The first page always prints fine, but all consecutive pages are corrupted.  As from a similar problem some months ago, I assume a broken ghostscript package. I tried to downgrade ghostscript to check that, but I get depency problems:

    Anyone else having printing problems or a solution for my problem?
    Thanks, Dieter

    This may not be related but I had a problem printing a pdf today whereby the second page got corrupted. The same pdf had printed fine several months ago. I realised that (long story) for some reason I had switched drivers (HP printer) from hpijs to hpcups. I installed the printer again as a "new" printer using the hpijs driver and it printed properly this time.
    So it may be that the bug causes issues with some drivers. You could try an alternative driver for the printer as temporary workaround?

  • How do I print more than one custom-size photo on a page in PSE 10?
