Questions about PDF Printing

Hello!
Is there any way that I can print a single page from a PDF on the back of every other page in that PDF?
Here's the example-
We use a report for certified payroll. The front of each report is different, but the back has all of the legal jargon on it that is required by the government.
Is there a way that I can print the report, and have Acrobat print the same thing on the back of each report without having to add that page everywhere I want it printed?
Thanks!

Not really. What you can do, though, is first print out the backs of all the pages, and then insert those pages (reversed) into your printer and print the actual file.
The only other option of doing it in Acrobat is by using a custom-made script.

Questions about PDF exporting with InDe CS5.5

Hey all,
A couple questions about exporting to PDF from the latest version of InDe.
First, I have noticed that it seems to take a lot longer to get to a PDF. Any suggestions for how to speed up the process? It took 8 minutes or so to generate a low-res PDF (for print) of a 24pp document with a few placed images and vector graphics. Wow, that's a long time to wait, especially for a proof.
Second, the background task... if I get it going on making that 8-minute PDF and then work some more on the document, what exactly is in the PDF? Usually I save before making a PDF or printing. So, is the last version saved what will be in the PDF?
(As an aside, this ability to work on the doc while generating a PDF seems kind of weird. Generally one makes a PDF for proofing, or even for printing, when all the changes have been made and everything is "final". So, I see no benefit to being able to work on my document while it's making a PDF, as I'm probably finished making revisions for the time being. I have to say that I kind of like the progress bar you get when you make an interactive PDF, as you know you can't work on the document when that's on the screen... )
Thanks as always.

Yes, this is abnormally long (and too long), something is wrong. What's the full version of InDesign you are running, as reported by holding down Cmd or Control and selecting About InDesign?

Saving is not related. InDesign makes a database snapshot of your document the moment you begin the PDF export, and makes the export relative to that snapshot, regardless of edits you continue to make during the export process, and regardless of saving. Of course saving first is a good idea, for several reasons, not the least of which it sounds like something's fairly seriously wrong with your document or your InDesign installation.
We recommend you trash your preferences and export your document to IDML and see if either of those things changes this 8-minute behavior...err, assuming you're running 7.5.2.318.

Yeah, I think the primary benefit is if you are likely to work on 2 or more files in parallel, so you can finish A and export A and then switch to B. If you'd like a dialog box to pop up when export is done, check out my exportPop script from this post: ANN: automatic dialog after background export (exportPop.jsx.

Question about Offset printing from Indesign

Hello everyone, I have a question about printing too a DPX rip platemaker from Indesign. When I print my file to the rip, it seems to bold the text when it should not be bold, I do not know if this is an Indesign or rip error, but if anyone has a solution I would be grateful for any assistance.
I dont know if it's necessary, but the OS with Indesign is Mac OSX, printing to a ripmate on Windows 2000.

Have you applied an outline to the text?
Try unoutlined text
Is the text near an effect like drop shadow or other filter?
Move the text to top layer or above any effects.
Is it just this file or any file?
Need to figure out if it's just this job or all of them or at least let us know.
Have you got the fonts installed at the RIP end, perhaps it's rasterising text that the RIP has not got the font?
You could try exporting to PDF first, that would embed the fonts in the PDF.
Let us know if any of this helps?

Question about book printing size

Hello,
I am working on a book design. But I haven't decided on the book size yet. For now, there are two sizes that I may choose from. So I need to ask some one's opinion who has knowledge about offset printing.
One size is 295 x 250 mm Portrait size. This is a little bigger than the other.
The smaller size is 230 x 260 mm Landscape size.
We use ISO A-0 printing sheets.
The book will be about anywhere from 250 to 300 pages.
My main question is, will there be any price differences on these two sizes?
Some people say that anything a little bigger than A4 size is automatically calculated for A3 size, which is the double A4. These two sizes both are a little bigger than A4 and fits within A3 size.
If there is enough difference, I want to go for the smaller size. If I can set my mind on one size, it will save me a lot of work and confusion.
Thanks.

I would think the size would be dependent on a few issues: genre, type of content, and the publisher to name a few. You could minimize costs going with the smaller size obviously, but I, for one, cannot make a recommendation without getting more specific on the details. Have you discussed the size with the publisher?

Question about Ipod/Printer Rebate

for anyone who used the student/teacher rebates on the ipod and printer, or anyone who purchased a macbook for that matter, do you guys remember a sales receipt that came with your macbook? how about the printer?
i am preparing to mail in my rebates and i need to include all the copies of the sales receipt. i do have the sales receipt for both the ipod and the printer which it came inside the shipping package, but i do not recall seeing one when the macbook/printer came. can someone verify this?
thanks!

Did you pay with a credit card? Do you remember giving them a email address?
Because when I bought my macbook, I got a hard copy, and provided them with an email address, & they emailed me a copy of the receipt for the macbook.
I would suggest checking your email to see if they did email you a copy.
Or you could just go back to the apple store, the original purchase was made in.
Mark this as helpful or solved plz

2 part question about PDF output in RoboHelp 8

I've been able to generate fairly clean-looking PDFs in RoboHelp with the entire Help contents.
My 2 questions are:
1) Is there a way to generate a Word document from the Help contents? I notice that when I choose "batch generate" it appears to generate
a Word doc that behaves as a distiller file and then creates a PDF. Is there a way to generate just a Word document?
2) If not, is there a way to set the settings within RoboHelp to allow you to edit the text in the generated PDF?
I do not have the full version of Acrobat and can't edit text with Adobe Reader.
thanks for any feedback!
Rachel

Hi Rachel
Examine the properties of your Printed Documentation Single Source Layout recipe.
You might be pleasantly surprised.
Cheers... Rick

A question about pdf form filling?

Hello,
I received a form in PDF format as an attachment in an e-mail reply from a travel company. I have to fill in this form and return it to the sender.
I could print out the PDF form manually fill the required field and either fax to them or scan & send it as an attachment BUT
I would wish to open the document on my Mac Book Air -fill in the requested field by typing in my Mac Book Air and send it back as an attachment.
Is that possible? I could not do this in my Win 7 computer but wondered if my Mac would have tricks up it's sleeve to accomplish this task?
Thank you for your time to answer my question.
Regards

Thank you for your time and an answer.
I do have Microsoft Word.
I do not know how to insert the PDF as watermark. Where do you find the picture radio button?
Would you mind telling the step involved in getting my pdf file opened in the Microsoft Word?
Regards

Question about PDFs

I'm sending letters to publishers who request PDFs.
Using pages, I can choose the print option and make a PDF using Preview.
But I'm sure many of these publishers use Windoze. Can I still send it via Preview (Windows Friendly Attachments) or should I download Adobe Reader and save them in that format?
One other question. This is a ONE PAGE PDF -- but it keeps showing up as a two page PDF-- with the second page blank. How do I make it just show up as ONE PAGE?
Thanks, Dan

Adobe Reader won't generate PDFs. And I'd avoid it like the plague... it will hijack Safari's PDF viewing... really it's a piece of crap.
Generate a PDF via "print" as you've done and you can just email it. It will come across fine to Windows users, and there's no need to send Windows-friendly attachments.
If you want to chop off the second page, when you print, just select "print pages 1... to 1." before clicking the button to save as PDF. That will work fine... I do it all the time.

Question about WAD print version configuration

Hi gurus,
We are having a problem with the WAD print version. We have created two WAD templates, one of them is for be viewed at the portal and the other one for the export to PDF.
Our template has several tables(data providers) in a horizontal line. The template for the export is exactly like this original template, but despite this, when we press the "print version" button in the portal, the PDF appears desconfigure and shows the data providers one under the other, in a vertical line.
We have tried to change the size of the data providers but we are not getting the expected result.
Could anyone give me some idea of how to proceed correctly for this situation?
Thank you in advanced.
Manuel.

Ok Mike, thank you very much! I was already guessing it would really not work in Firefox, and we would have to look for alternative solutions.
We followed your advice and we are now trying to use a Firefox plugin named IE Tab, and it looks like its going to solve our problem.
Thanks a lot for your attention.
Sincerely,
Carlos Eduardo Lacombe

About PDF print in OBIEE?

if i hidden a prompt in a dashboard. it will not show in the dashboard.
but when i print it by PDF format. it will show hidden prompt.
i how to remove the hidden prompt in PDF file?

Here's the way around I use:
Create a report that's empty - don't even add rows to it. Save it as something, call it, say, "NOTHING". Then on the dashboard, put the hidden prompt into its own section and do - Properties, Guided Navigation. Browse through, and select your empty report (in my case, "NOTHING"). Then where it says Show Section, make sure "If request returns rows" is selected. This won't be true as our NOTHING report is blank. And wallah, your prompt is now hidden, won't print on the PDF, and it still will work.

Question about windows printer canon bj5200 can't print or see in Leopard

Hello;
this has been a problem for me in Tiger as well, I have a windows workgroup network and have a canon bj5200 share on a windows xp machine, I've done some research and can't seem to find the solution on how print from Leopard (previous Tiger) to the shared printer. I choose + to add the printer and then windows it shows my network name but nothing after that. Solutions anyone?

You will either need to enable the Guest account on the Windows computer or create an SMB queue using the account details for the XP PC. In Tiger this was done using the Advanced setting which was available after holding the Option key while pressing More Printers. Not sure if the same process exists for Leopard - will have to check on the MacPro at work or someone with Leopard at home can confirm.
Also, you probably won't be able to use the Canon provided driver as they are usually written to work only with a direct USB connection from the Mac. So you have to find a compatible GIMP-Print (know Gutenprint) driver for the 5200. However the Canon BJ5200 is not listed as a supported device under Gutenprint v5.1.3 nor PrintFab. Are you sure of the model? There is a iP5200...

Question about PDFs in browser

Hi, for my organization, we want to force users to open PDFs in Adobe Reader and not open them in the browser window which we've set up using the configuration wizard and that's not a problem.
My problem is that we have one particular site that won't allow us to view the PDF on it if the view in browser functionality is disabled. I tried turning on the option in the wizard to give the Open/Save dialog when PDFs are opened in the browser, but I don't ever get a prompt for this document when it's enabled.
I wanted to see if there is any way to specify individual web sites as being able to view PDFs in the browser, but generally leave that functionality disabled.
Thanks for any help,
Jared

If you turn off javascript or java for the website you can probably download the pdf with no issue. I know of no way to set the behavior since it is a browser issue not an Acrobat or Reader issue.

I have a question about my printer.

Does photoshop printer setting's have any effect on how my printer works outside of photoshop? The reason I ask, my printer will no longer print from the internet. Thanks M

You would probably be best off to post this on a Photoshop forum.
However, all printing settings for Photoshop are local to Photoshop. Changes that you may make to the printer properties within Photoshop should not be seen by any other applications unless there is a severe bug in the printer driver for the particular printer.
What type of printer are you having this issue with? And what do you mean by your remark that your “printer will no longer print from the internet?”
