Problem with page size when converting spool to PDF

I have a SmartForm invoice which is formatted perfectly when I print it using the printer options specified when I open the form. However, when I send the output to spool, convert it to PDF using FM CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF, then print to the same printer, the format is not correct.
The PDF generation feature treats the page (standard letter size, portrait) as too large and shrinks the output to fit the page. It scales the entire invoice down by about 1/4 inch, which throws off our mailing envelope.  If I change the page scaling option of Adobe Reader to 'None', my invoice is scrunched up into the top left corner of the page.
My page format is LETTER Portrait.
Any help or suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks.

  • Problems retaining page size when converting MS WORD 2007 doc to PDF

    I am having a problem converting Word documents that are not standard page size to a PDF. When I do the conversion, the PDF is resized to 8.5 x 11, even though the original WORD doc was 5.5 x 8.5
    This happens even when I go into the Acrobat Preferences and change the default page size to 5.5 x 8.5.
    The worst of it is, it does not happen with everyone who uses a particular computer here. It happens to some, but not to others.
    Does anyone have any experience with this?
    Thanks.

    It's happening the same way on several different computers here.
    Everyone logs in with their own userid on each machine. We are all working with the same MS WORD documents. These documents are non-standard sizes -- 6 x 9, or 5.5 x 8.5.
    Everyone uses the same version of Acrobat Professional, and selects "Convert to PDF from file".
    For some people, the PDF is created from the Word doc, and the original page size is retained. This is what we want.
    However, for others, the PDF is created as 8.5 x 11, no matter what the original size of the document was. No amount of fiddling with the default page size, in either Acrobat or Word, changes this.
    It is driving me crazy, and I was hoping that at least one other person on the planet has come across this problem. Is this an Adobe or a Microsoft problem? Could it be a Windows registry setting?
    Advice is appreciated!

  • Problem with page size when using redirected printer

    I have a customer who connects to another customer's network via VPN, then logs into and RDS server running Server 2012.
    This customer then opens an Excel file and tries to print it out to a printer that is local to her and of course shows as redirected when looking at Devices and Printers in her login on the RDS server.
    The problem is that when going to File / Print on the Excel document, the page size is listed as Custom Size and if you try to select any other size from the list, it won't accept it and stays at custom size. If she selects another redirected local printer,
    she can choose whatever page size she wants.
    This is not selecting the paper size. She can change that on either redirected printer. So when she is trying to print an Excel file on legal size paper, the print comes out reduced as if it is trying to print on letter size paper even though legal size
    paper is selected.
    I hope my description is clear enough. If not, please let me know and I'll try to explain further. So I'm trying to find how to fix this one redirected printer (a Brother MFC-7860DW) so that she can change the page size so when the document prints it occupies
    the full sheet of legal size paper.
    Jonathan

    Is there is a difference in printer driver for working and non-working redirected printers? If yes, can you match it?
    Do you see the same behavior if you use Generic Text Only inbox driver?
    Thanks

  • Page Size When Converting TIFF to PDF

    In my work I download documents from a website where you can only view and save them as TIFF images. The documents are scanned images of typewritten instruments filed with the county clerk. When saved as TIFFs, the documents are of varying sizes. After I save them as TIFF files, I convert to pdf using select (often multiple files at once), then right click "Convert to Adobe PDF." The files convert to pdf without a problem, except they are of many different page sizes, depending upon the size of the TIFF file.
    I am using Adobe Acrobat X Standard (Windows 7 on a PC). Is there a way to set it up so when I convert from TIFF to pdf, it will come out as a standard page size, such as legal 8.5x14? I know that I can convert, then print using the Adobe PDF printer, but that just adds another step.
    Would the answer be different if I were using Acrobat X Pro or Acrobat XI? Thanks.

    TIFF files contain a page size, and when converted to PDFs, the page size from the TIFF is used.
    So you need to fix it in the TIFF before conversion or the PDF after conversion. I think the TIFF will probably be a better, easier and cheaper place to fix it.

    Hi Srikanth,
    I think I'm facing the same issue as you. I looked at the note 323736 but my system seems to be up to date (at least for this issue). I have SAP_BASIS release 700.
    Did you upgrade your system ? Did you do something else ?
    Thanks for your help.
    Best regards,

  • Problem with logo size when converted to eps

    I am brand new to Illustrator. I have created a logo and converted it to an eps file. My problem is that when I use the logo, it is a big square with a lot of empty space on the bottom. I sized the art board to the area around the logo but when I convert it I still get this big square with the logo on the top part when I paste it into my word document. How do I get it cropped down to the correct size. I have someone waiting for this and I can't even get it in a format they can use.

    Sounds like there is a hidden element somewhere forcing the entire document to wherever that element is, even outside the artboard.  Just a hunch.  Do a Command Y ( Mac ) or Control Y ( PC ) to see outlines.  Then, do a "Select All" and see if the element shows up anywhere.  Find it and delete it.  Now, maybe there is no hidden element.  This is what I do for every logo I've prep'd:  A.) if the artwork is 2" h x 3" w ( hypothetically speaking ), set your artboard size to 3 x 5.  Set an imaginary holding line to the 3x5 size by applying a rectangle 3x5 with no stroke and no fill > then Lock it ( Object > Lock selection ).  You may benefit by Exporting the artwork as an RGB .tiff and using that in Word.  However, you can import or insert an .eps in Word, but whatever works better.  Hope this helps.

    Thanks for your quick response.
    I used the program you mentioned to download spool to PDF.The download file is like the link picture.
    And the form will not overlap when I print it immediately.But it will overlap the first line when preview or convert to PDF. My user don't want to print it immediately they want to save it to PDF.
    I know maybe there is something wrong with the format, I tryed retype the text but it didn't works.

  • Problems with Pages 5 docs converting to Word docs

    It seems with the new upgrade on my MacBook Air, I have a glitch. Now when I convert a Pages doc to Word, the page breaks get removed and the doc turns into a sea. Also, I sent this new Word doc to my Kindle to upload into ebook form (never had a problem with Pages 09 previously, always came out beautifully) and now the doc turns into a digitally mangled mess. Any ideas?? Thank you.

    Usually when it does that it is because there is an XML table somewhere buried in there and either the table width or margin indents are forcing the text far left.
    Hard to pin down the problem with being able to examine the actual file contents.
    …and Pages 5 is buggy.
    So why don't you just use Pages '09? It works.

  • Problems with Capture Date when converting from PSE9

    I'm trying to troubleshoot a problem I'm having when converting my PSE9 catalog to LR3.4. Specifically, about 20% of my images (abouit 2,500 out of 12,000) didn't import with capture dates. I can clearly see the correct capture dates in PSE9 Organizer, but when I view the same imported images in LR3.4, there is no date. This occurs with dates that I've modified in PSE9 as well as dates straight out of the camera.
    This is a major problem for me because I'm used to organizing my photos in PSE9 using capture dates. On a related note, PSE9 allows you to set the capture date to a known year and unknown month, day, and time, but when imported into LR3, these dates are converted to Jan 01 of the known year. Sorry, but Jan 01 is not the same as unknown. Is there a way to correctly display unknown portions of a capture date in LR3 similar to the way it's displayed in PSE9?
    Sorry if this has been discussed before.

    How did you convert your catalog?  Did you use File > Upgrade Photoshop Elements Catalog, or did you use File > Import Photos?  You should use the former; the latter has many problems, among which PSE doesn't always correctly write medata (e.g. capture dates) into files. If you used File > Upgrade Photoshop Elements Catalog, post an image here and we can take a look at its metadata to troubleshoot.
    function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
    On a related note, PSE9 allows you to set the capture date to a known year and unknown month, day, and time, but when imported into LR3, these dates are converted to Jan 01 of the known year.
    Even though Adobe's XMP metadata standard allows for unknown month, day, or time, most programs including LR don't support it -- PSE is the only program I know of that does (and it has problems).  I use the conveniton of 1/1 12:00:00 to represent unknown values.
    See this FAQ for other issues with converting PSE catalogs to LR:

  • Adjust page boundary when converting eps to pdf

    Hi, I have a problem with the page boundaries when converting eps files to pdf files. The resulting pdf page boundary is the bare minimum around the eps objects, leading to different page sizes when the pdf is viewed on screen. I would like all of my pdf objects to have the standard letter (8.5 by 11 inch) page boundary. Furthermore, when the pdf is printed the size of the objects is not to to the same scale as the eps file (which was created in adobe illustrator), and the orientation of the picture is often rotated to what is displayed on the eps or pdf file! Can anybody help me with this problem?

    I opened Distiller from the regular programs menu. I have a job settings file selected that has a 8.5X11 size. I opened a 5.5X7.5 EPS file in Distiller and it creates a PDF with the image at the bottom of the 8.5X11 page. You can also simply open the PDF that you already have and print to a new PDF -- selecting expand to fit if desired.

  • Do you see problems with text size when importing from Photoshop?

    Hi all -
    We're working on improving some things in the Photoshop-to-Reflow workflow, and right
    now specifically investigating trouble with imported text.
    Aside from the desire to have support for local fonts, are there any problems you run into
    when importing text from Photoshop into Reflow? We've heard some issues with text size and position,
    but want to make sure we understand all of the cases.
    If you have problems in this area, please share them in this thread, and I'd also love to get some
    sample PSDs that demonstrate the problems. (You can send them directly to me; vmitnick at adobe dot com .)
    thanks,
    Vic

  • Discoverer Plus - Problem with Page Orientation when printing pdf's

    Hi,
    When printing pdf's in Disco Plus I have a problem:
    My workbooks are a mixture of landscape and portrait pages.
    I am printing the entire workbook and then using cutepdf to produce a pdf.
    If I print to paper I get the correct landscape/portrait settings.
    If I print to pdf then landscape pages appear vertically when I view on screen so that the text is running from bottom to top of the page.
    So it is picking up th portrait/landscape settings from the individual worksheets but cutepdf has not realised that the pages are landscape so they appear on the screen vertically.
    This was not a problem on discoverer desktop so I am confident that this is not a problem with cutepdf.
    Any thoughts?
    Justin

    Thanks 2257648922,
    Version details are as follows:
    OracleBI Discoverer 10g (10.1.2.3)
    Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Plus 10g (10.1.2.55.26)
    Discoverer Model - 10.1.2.55.26
    Discoverer Server - 10.1.2.55.26
    End User Layer - 5.1.1.0.0.0

    Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production

    So I assume that means my version doesn't have the bug you mention.
    Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

  • Inconsistant page sizes when converting from word to pdf

    My word file has A4 sized pages and A3 sized pages.
    When I convert them to PDF, the content on the A3 pages get cut off.
    I want to keep the 2 different sized pages in my document.
    How can I fix this?

    To maintain links you have to use the PDFMaker plugin. I'm guessing it's
    not available for your combination of Office and Acrobat, so you're out of
    luck.
