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

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.

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

Difference in PDF page size when using Save versus Save As

I am having a problem when I save PDFs from Illustrator with the page size changing
When saving as a PDF from Illustrator CC (Mac OS 10.6.8) the page size of the resultant PDF should be the size of the artboard.
Create New File
Save as PDF (Illustrator Default setting)
Open PDF in Acrobat
The page size equals the size of the artboard
Open same file back into Illustrtor
Edit the file in some way (draw a box outside of the artboard)
Reopen the file back into Acrobat, now the Page size is different from the artboard.
If I resave the file using save as, essentially overwriting the old file, the artboard is back as it should be.
It is almost as if Save As is using the artboard, but Save uses artwork bounds.
This appears to be a glitch but I have not been able to isolate the cause. Tried trashing prefs, didn't help. Had th same problem in CS5, couldn't figure it out then either, so I don't think this is version specific problem.
This problem is specific to my workstation, as my co-workers do not have the same problem, unless they start working on a file I created. Could be some kind of virus like problem.
Anyone had expeirences with this issue? I had really hoped upgrading to CC would have cleared this up but it seems to be following me, which is why I thought trashing prefs would have cleared it up.

Finally found someone with the exact same problem. Our entire department of 7 people is having this same issue. It is strange becasue we can't isolate where it starts.
If we save our PDF back to .ai file,
close and reopen Illustrator CC,
open the .ai file and save to PDF again,
then the file is "clean" and works as expected.
But then somewhere down the line we get another file that does the same thing. Then any file we open after that will have the same problem, unless we repeat the process I mentioned. This has been consistent between Illustrator CS6 and Illustrator CC.
This started happening about 2-3 weeks ago (mabe longer?) and is killing us when we run our PDF to our step and repeat workflows because they use the trim and bleed size for placement and this is being ignored. I am looking for a solution as well.

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!

I have been having problems with YouTube functionality when using Firefox, some of them having begun with the latest Firefox update

After a fairly recent update, I began having the option to paste text disappear, I've had backspace cause the browser to go back to the previous page while in a text box, and other issues which are apparently a matter of Firefox not recognizing the fact that I am typing in a text box.
After the last update, suddenly YouTube video page URL links no longer translate into links containing the title of the video, and also things like the use of bookend asterisks in order to have text appear in bold typeface no longer work.

i have the same problem with the above..firefox is running too slow with the games in facebook..but it runs good when browsing my updates, msgs, photos...firefox is totally opposite of IE..IE is faster with the games and slow while browsing..i love to use mozila but when i do games it really pisses me off...hope you could help me..

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

I'm using CS4.. and I'm using the standard "Save As" .pdf features....
and I'm reading it with adobe acrobat pro 9.1...

Problem with JMS migration when using Ctrl+C to stop the managed server in cluster

          Hi,
          I am having a clustered weblogic application running on Weblogic 7.0 SP5. My application
          uses JMS as a asynchrous communication. We have MDB which listens to these JMS
          messages.
          If something is being processed on Managed Server 1 and while the request is in
          process, i am stopping the the MAnaged SErver 1 using Ctrl+C.
          After this, i go to admin console and migrate teh JTA and JMS. After this, i am
          expecting other running Managed Server should restart the incomplete transaction.
          But this is not happening. The Managed Serve2 doesn't process the requst.
          But when i restart teh MAnaged SErver 1 again, it takes up the same request and
          processes it.
          Is this a known problem with Weblogic that it doesn't support Ctlr+C case?
          Please note that the same thing is working fine when i stop the server using Admin
          console(Normal shutdown OR forced shutdown).
          Any comments in this regards are apprecciated.
          Thanks,
          Naresh

PROBLEM WITH ALT-V WHEN USING CROATIAN KEYBOARD

Hi,
When Typing ALT GR+V (@ sign) in Croatian Keyboard, all the text from clipboard is copied into the text box (as it is pressed CTRL+V) plus the @sign.
There were some bugs filed long back regarding a similar issue for the German keyboard where the customer was using the AltGr key for special characters, same as in our case.
Below is the list of those bugs:
(1)     Bug 757614: GERMAN USERS CANNOT USE ALT-GR KEY TO GET SPECIAL CHARACTERS
(2)     666925
(3)     767865
(4)     768658
I have gone through the descriptions and mail chains mentioned in these bugs, and it seems that the issue was fixed in OJDK.
Please go through the above mentioned bugs once to get more details.
It seems that this is not ORMS issue. It seems to be an Oracle Forms or OJDK issue.
Can someone please advise on this as why is this happening. We are using Oracle Forms 10g.
Thanks and Regards,
Ashwini Swaroop Pradhan

w/ all the keyboards and language settings.
What do you mean by that? The problem being talked about here is an inability to make French accented characters on a German keyboard. What is your problem exactly?
I've posted here because I guess it may be the same bug.
After upgrading I wasn't able to do special characters, including some accented vocals, like "ì", very common in italian language.
Then I've added an english keyboard, removed the italian one and added it again, so the problem with missing accented vocals was solved.
I still have the same problem with special consonants, like "z" and "c": if I hold my thumb on such letters, I have no options like, say, "ż" (such characters are very important for my field (linguistics) and if Apple won't solve this problem I'll be forced to look elsewhere).

Ibook G4 having problem with airport connection when using secure network

Hi,
I am currently using a brand new Macbook. I am connected wirelessly to a Comcast network through my Netgear Wireless-N 150 router model WNR 1000. The problem I am having is with the 4 year old ibook when I go to use the airport and connect to my existing network it says the password is incorrect. I spent time troubleshooting this with Netgear and basically we found out that the ibook does connect with the network when there is no security at all.
I erased the hard drive on this ibook to prepare it for sale and it is back to the factory settings. Is there some kind of firmware or drivers I am missing to use the airport as described?? I want to be able to show the buyer that the internet works etc. I also may want to install a few things on the ibook before the sale.
Thanks a mil

Did you reset the wireless router to see if by default, it has a different
wireless security then, than however it presently is set up?
The question you pose appears to be marked "answered or solved."
When you reinstall an OS X, the setup asks if you have an existing
wireless connection, or if you will be getting a new one; by default,
the setup will make the existing one the automatic one for OS X.
You should not have to add passwords or other, unless there has
been one set in KeyChain or for the specific wireless base in question.
Tiger 10.4.x does not require you to have a set password for wi-fi,
but you will find several levels of secure options available in OS X.
Not sure why your setup and configuration is problematic. Usually,
a totally new OS X installation is without issue. Sometimes, you
may have to administer a base station via Ethernet cable before
some configurations can use it, but an existing network should be
easy, unless it already has a password security in place.
The Mac will work without a password-protected wi-fi internet source;
often it will 'just work' even when moved to a new environment and
a neighbor's network, if not password protected, will appear among
other options in your vicinity and it will be automatically available.
Not sure if any newer OS X update parts, from the Combo update
files to take Tiger 10.4 to 10.4.11, plus others, would help the Mac
connect better to whatever wireless source of internet available.
I've not had that issue, as you state, except for when someone has
a protected network or passwords in place. Mine has passwords to
keep unauthorized neighbors from easy access; just in case.
In remote locations where few neighbors exist who could access wi-fi
from a lone source, no wireless security settings at all, work just fine.
I've done that; and found a little greater range was gained in signals.
And in the city (largest town in state) a computer I'd set up for use in
a password protected wi-fi network - later worked fine and found the
new owner's own wi-fi network without issues; and I had let the OSX
setup assistant do its job. If a local network is protected by WEP or
WPA2, etc with a password, one would be needed to access it. If not,
then the connection should be automatic.
Good luck & happy computing!

Problem with path length when using oracle drive

Hello!
Does anybody else experience this problem with Oracle Drive?
When I create a deep or nested hierarchy in which the path length is longer than 250 (the limit might be 255) characters, I cannot access the deeper subpages.
Example:"X:\INET\START1\pfadlaengentest\das istein langer ordnername mit etwa 50 zeichen\and this is another veryveryvery long\and this is another veryveryvery lon2\and this is another veryveryvery lon3\and this is another veryveryvery lon4\and this is another veryveryvery lon5".
I can access the page "and this is another veryveryvery lon4" but not "and this is another veryveryvery lon5"
Is this problem due to WebDAV?
What can I do - I think it is a critical error / bug?
Regards Joerg.

I opened a service request and oracle support could help me.
The problem is the windows file system: the path length cannot be longer than 256 chars.
There's a workaround with MS-Webfolders.
More information is available via metalink: watch out for SR-Number 5659267.992.

Problems with My Nano when using Accessories

I bought my nano in November and haven't had any problem with it...until now. For x-mas I got an ITrip and a music station. My Nano doesn't like them. It worked once, and then stopped working. I took my nano to an Apple Store where they reset everything. It worked...for a day and now my nano won't play music through the ITrip or music station! Any ideas because I don't want to reset it and then re-load everything when I want to use my accessories. Thanks!

Hello Ashers,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
I don't want to reset it and then re-load everything when I want to use my accessories.
Resetting will not delete songs/photos from your nano. Sometimes there's a glitch in the nano, where you would have to reset:
Resetting iPod
The next time when you plug your nano to your iTrip and music station, you might want to try turning your nano on first. See if that helps.

Problems with USB device when using WindowsNT

Hi,
my problem is that I want to use a simulator which can only be connected with USB to the computer.
I used the VISA Driver Development Wizard as discribed in this link (http://zone.ni.com/devzone/conceptd.nsf/webmain/6792BAB18242082786256DD7006B6416) and it didn't work.
I'm using Windows NT and VISA 3.1 and I read that it isn't possible to create a USB connection with VISA when using Windows NT. So my questions
1) is this right
2) Has someone a idea what I can do? I tried to use VISA USB Control and this also didn't work.
I hope I discribed my problem detailed enough. It's my first post.
Thanks for your responses
Joerg

As you can see in this table, USB is not supported by VISA under NT:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/EE34F21ECC2BE01286256C52005D1A1F?OpenDocument
I would recommend to use Win2000 or XP. Using one of these OSes you could use this turorial to create your VISA-driver:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/devzoneweb.nsf/Opendoc?openagent&1D0DD81FF1448CAE86256D90006EE2B4
If it is not posssible to change the OS, you have to look for other ways of programming your usb-device. Check the web or the Microsoft site for help concerning Windows SDK and USB.
Hope this helps a little!

Problem with page size using Illustrator CS5

I am using Adobe Illustrator CS5. I have created a multi-layered document that is 8.5 x 11 inches. In looking at the document on the screen, it looks like the proper size, and if I were to print it out, it looks correct. However, when I export it as a TIF file, the size of the document has changed to be much wider than 8.5 inches. What is the problem?

This is a bit off topic, but if you are sending this to a commercial printer, a PDF would be better. If you need to send a tiff for some reason, don't forget to include the bleed.
