Recipe Template
I need a full page recipe template for Pages. I can't seem to find one anywhere. Any ideas?
Here is a link that my father-in-law sent me. There are several programs here. There is one called MacGourmet that is for recipes. I have downloaded it but have not tried it yet. Hope this helps.

I want to add an existing recipe template to Pages 08, I've read the support community and downloaded suggestions,but when I try to open it states these are not pages and it will not open. Do I have to create a template from scratch or is there something out there already that I can plug in and begin using?
sI just download a recipe book template for pages '09 that just opened right up.
The link:
http://blog.magcloud.com/2010/11/11/pages-recipe-book/
Actual template:
Open a New File
You can DOWNLOAD the template I use in my demo here, the Pages 2008 version here,
or if you are feeling inspired, design your own from scratch! -
Modify array in recipe template
Does anyone know how I would go about changing or adding to the array used in the recipe template? I was wanting to add conversion from english to metric systems. For those of us that like (US) to cook using the metric system, and for those of us that need (outside of US) to cook using the metric system the array used in the recipe template needs to be modified. I tried to look up array in help but that only delt with exsisting arrays used by formulas.
You could create the metric equivalents in each of the cells in the Array table (i.e., 1 TSP = xx mL). Also you could rename the titles to approximate metric equivalents.

I am writing a cookbook and would like to find a free recipe template to downoad. Can anyone tell me where to find one? Thanx!
its going to depend on what application you are writing it in and what format your book will be. if you have a publisher they should be able to help you with this as well. i did find this by searching 'pages recipe template' in google http://www.iworkcommunity.com/content/recipe-full-page however i do not know the usage rights

Has the recipe template for Pages been removed?
Since updating to the latest version it seems to have disappeared both on iOS and on Mavericks.
Apple removed over 90 features from Pages 5 and changed the file format.
Pages 5 alters/damages older Pages '09 files which is why Apple removed over 2/3rds of the templates.
Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.

Is there any way to access the Pages app templetes that were there six months ago? The one I used for my recipes is no longer there.
What was the name of the recipe template?
Or was it one you created yourself.
It helps when you tell us that you upgraded both your OS and Pages, which it appears you have done.
Possibly even changing your Mac or iOS device. Which is it btw?
Probably you have a new Pages which has only a fraction of the templates, because it has a fraction of the features.

Adding pages to custom templates
Hi I'm returning to the Mac after many years away and I'm hoping someone can help me. I designed a recipe template in Pages with text boxes formatted the way I want. But I can't seem to add pages to the template or document that keep that specific format of 4 text boxes with certain attributes - nothing fancy. How do you add a page that keeps the same setup of text boxes as the first page? Thanks for any help you can give.
I just happen to stumble across this question trying to get a question answered myself. I am not sure what formatting is getting changed when you attempt to add a new page or how you are adding a new page. So I will make the following assumptions. Please let me know how far off I am.
When you are adding a new page I assume that you are using [Menu] Insert -> Page Break.
When you say the formatting changes you mean that the Text Boxes move to locations that you do not want.
If this is the case then you will want to select the text box and then look into the inspector [Menu] View->Show Inspector. Go to the Wrap Inspector (3rd tab from the left) and ensure the "Floating (doesn't move with text)" is selected. This should let you place the text boxes anywhere and the text will just "deal with it". This also means the text boxes don't care where page breaks are either.
Another way of placing text in columns or in an arranged order is to use a Table. You can remove the headers and show or hide boundary lines. I often use table to layout my text and then remove the borders. This looks great when you need to write out terms and their definitions.
Hope this helps. -
Deploying Java Desktop App using executable JAR files
Hi there.
Today I am very optimistic about java. I am a beginner, and I had tried (in my few free time) to understand how to deploy java desktop apps.
I am using the lattest NetBeans IDE to do the programming and it is very very fast and optimized.
Going to the point, I tried some time ago to deploy an application (made with this IDE) using JAR files, but even though the application run well on my IDE, when I packed it, it rised an error saying that
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/netbeans/lib/awtextra/AbsoluteLayout
I was using an absolute layout on my JFrame forms and this AbsoluteLayout is provided by netbeans and not by the normal SDK.
I then looked for the absolute layout class and found a jar file in the following path:
C:\netbeans\modules\ext\AbsoluteLayout.jar
So I mounted the Jar file in my File Systems and then added the contents of the file to myApp.Jar file.
I used the automated Jar Recipe Packaging feature of netbeans, that is why I needed to mount the AbsoluteLayout.jar file into my file systems.
Now it runs fine by just right clicking the MyApp.jar file from Windows Explorer.
In a next reply to this topic I will include some sample code so that anybody requiring to do such implementation can take this for help.
Regards!
JNWell,
I will take some time here to show the basic source code and procedure to create a desktop application, pack it up in a Jar file for deployment, add other classes or jars to the deployment jar file and finally open the jar file as an executable. This applies for either windows and linux environments.
Take in count i am using Netbeans IDE 3.x (3.5)
First I open the IDE and create a new project called MyDesktopApp. This is done by going to the menu Project / Project Manager. Then click on the New button and specify the project name and click on OK.
At this point, the Filesystems tab in the project explorer is empty. So I mount a directory to store myDesktopApp in it. I selected c:\MyDesktopApp but you can select any name you want.
To mount the directory you follow these steps:
1. Right-click on File Systems
2. From the contextual menu select Mount > Local Directory
3. In the filechooser window, you just browse it and SELECT the directory to mount. Be aware that you can even create the directory on this window. Do not enter (double-click) into the directory you want to mount, just select it and click on finish...
4.Then the directory entry appears under the filesystems node of the project explorer.
Now you have to create your application. You can either create a package (special configured and tracked directory) or you can create the clases directly inside the directory. For tidy project, I will create the package.
To create the package follow these instructions:
1. Right-click on the mounted directory and from the contextual menu select New > Java Package
2. In the New Wizard - Java Package window, type the package name and click on finish. I use the "MyDesktopApp" as package name.
OK. Now the package is created under the mounted directory. Now we have to create the Main Class. In this case I will use a JFRAME as the main class but you can create any class you want.
To create the JFRAME as main class follow these steps:
1. Right click on the java package you just created and select New>JFRAME from the contextual menu. If you do not see the JFRAME option on the NEW sub menu you will have to select the All Templates option. I explain the All Templates option now on, it will be easier to use the JFRAME if available. Once you use JFRAME with the all templates then the JFRAME will show up in further NEW usage.
2. So finally we used the All Templates, and you select the Java GUI Forms > JFRAME form option and click on NEXT.
3. Give it a name. (I used MyDesktopAppFrm) and click on finish. Be aware you can set advanced options by clicking on next. But for the purposes of this topic we will use default options so click on FINISH
4. A new JFRAME form appears inside your package. Right click on the form and select Set layout > Absolute Layout.
5. Add some controls and code. I added a label and a button. And coded the ActionPerformed event of the button to say hello! on the label. this is up to you. The code just looks as follows:
private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
// Add your handling code here:
jLabel1.setText("Hello folks!");
6. Compile and execute the form.
Let's say this is our Desktop Application. Now We will pack it in a Jar in two steps...
A. Create a JAR file (Recipe)
1. Right-click on your package and select New > All Tempaltes (Long Route) You can also select New > JAR Recipe if available.
2. On the New Wizard Window, choose the JAR ARchives > JAR Recipe template and click on NEXT
3. I used MyDesktopApp as the file name and Defaults and then click on Next.
4. Specify the JAR Contents. Select the Package (not the mounted folder) from the mounted file system and click on add and then click on NEXT twice...
5. On the JAR Manifest window, click on GENERATE
6. Edit the manifest in the window to add the following code:
Main-Class: MyDesktopApp.MyDesktopAppFrm
7. Ensure the Main-Class definition is the same as your java package and JFRAME name. Click on FINISH
8. At this point we have a jar file in your project directory but this file wont run because it is missing some Netbeans clases that we will add in the next set of steps... Just to check, compile the file (right click on the JAR file and compile) and try to execute. It must compile but must not execute.(well if it executes you are done. It may execute if you did not set the lay out of the form as AbsoluteLayout)
B. Add the AbsoluteLayOut to the JAR
1. Right click on File Systems and select Mount > Archive Files
2. Look for your netbeans installation folder and select the following file:
.../netbeans/modules/ext/AbsoluteLayout.jar
3. Click on finish
4. Now the JAR File is mounted in the file systems.
5. Right-click on your MyDesktopApp.JAR file and select properties.
6. Look for the contents property click once on it and then on its elipsis button [...]
7. From the FileSystems box in the Contents window, select the AbsoluteLayOut file and click on Add
8. Then the system asks you if you are sure. Of course you are so click OK. (If not sure, just read the message text and click OK...:-))
9. Click on OK
10. Compile your JAR Recipe (right click on it and Compile)
11. Now you must be able to run the file by right clicking it and EXECUTE.
12. Also you must be able to run the file by double clicking the file from a Windows Explorer. You may receive a message asking to select the program to run the file with. You must browse and select the Javaw.exe file in the bin directory of your Java RUn Time installation. This is typically located at C:\j2sdk1.4.0_01\jre\bin or something like that. Use the File-Search feature of window to locate the JAVAW.exe file if needed.
I hope this long explanation helps somebody to deploy Java Desktop applications. Please reply the message if it helps you just to know it was useful.
Thanks for your time....

Where can I get a recipe card template?
The Avery website does not have iMAC templates like the ones I used when I was PC for 4 x 6 recipe cards and Pages does not include such a template.....can you imagine that?
These any good?

Paper Mismatch when trying to print a recipe card from a template
I keep getting a message when trying to print a 4 x 6 recipe card on both of my color printers. No matter what I do I cannot print the cards. I have a HP Photosmart C4480 printer and a HP Officejet 8000 series printer. I am running Windows 7, 32 bit. I went to reinstall the drivers from the original installation disk and I get the message that a newer version of the drivers is already installed.
I am sorry to hear you went through so much time and effort to get it working . More so because in the end we don't know what solved it. However, I am glad to hear everything is working now . Let us know if you run into any other problems!
You can say thanks by clicking the Kudos Star in my post. If my post resolves your problem, please mark it as Accepted Solution so others can benefit too. -
I have created a family recipe book in iBooks - can I print it using iPhoto's print service?
I have created a family recipe book in iBooks - can I print it using iPhoto's print service? I don't want to print it on our home printer - I want to print multiple copies for family members through the Apple iPhoto book printing service. Can anyone help me please?
There is no Apple print service for iBooks, and iPhoto can also only print photo books created in iPhoto.
Print your iBook to pdf. Then you have several option:
Save the pdf to a thumbsdrive/stick and take it to the nearest print shop close to your home.
Search online for "self publishing" services available in your country.
Recreate your book as an iPhoto Book. This will be a lot of work, since iPhoto's templates are more suitable for Picture books than books with lots of formatted text. To speed things up, you could use "Preview" to export the pages of your book as jpegs (high quality, at least 300 dpi) and add themas full-page photos to a new PhotoBook. This can be sent to apple for printing.
But the first two options would be much less trouble and probably be less expensive.

Can I combine different iBooks Author templates?
Hi there,
I want to create a book that is, at one and the same time, a book of restaurant reviews that includes replies and responses to these reviews, a recipe book and, I don't know, commentary/philosophizing/flights-of-fancy from the chef (who's something of a character).
I want to use some of the very slick iBooks Author templates, but the thing is, I don't want to be restricted to just one template, because my book (for better or worse) will be something of amalgam.
So my question is—can I combine some of these iBooks Author templates? Any other advice re how best to proceed?
Thanks very much,
MalcolmSounds like a plan to me, Malcolm. I have used two image widgets in my simple layout. I have stopped trying to put photos into the text, which are called inline photos. It is much easier to use a image gallery widget which allows for many photos and images to be used. When they are clicked they will expand to the quality of the original image. If you are taking your own photos, they will fill the iPad screen. Each photo can have a very short caption. The other widget I use is called the interactive image widget. It gives you little tags that you can move around to label and explain whatever you want. The interactive widget is for one image only.
I don't see any problem with you using reviews, quotations, etc. That's just text stuff. Your text flows from screen to screen, so you just insert your image widgets into the text and keep on going.
Why don't you try a practice template and get the hang of it? The other thing I have gotten used to is that sections have their own rules. You can insert a section where you want. For chapters, the front two pages are special. The left side wants to have a big font title, some white space and a small text block. That text block does NOT connect to the pages which you add next. These pages all have flowing content. On the right page of the chapter opening, it wants to have one large image, filling the page. It doesn't want anything else. These are format issues. What I do is start with text from the material I have and put it in the first page little text box. You can adjust the size of that text box. Then I continue with the text on the following pages. If you paste it in there, it will automatically add as many pages as are needed. I actually need a three step process as my original text comes from Adobe InDesign on a PC. I copy it into MS Word, and then export it from Word as Rich Text Format (RTF), which is as basic as it gets. RTF has no problem going into iBook. If you are writing directly into Apple Pages it will transfer over to iBook.
I am writing a history book, and have transferred over the first hundred pages into iBook Author, and am adding many copyright free images from Wikipedia. If you click on an image on Wikipedia, it will take you to the image page called Wikimedia Commons. They often offer the image in different resolutions. On my Apple laptop, I right click and place in the iPhoto library. I LOVE iPhoto Library. Your image comes in and you drag it up to the category you have created. The categories collapse into small bands, which you can open with a click. So it is extremely easy to keep track of your images and put them in as many categories as you like. Then from iPhoto, you can drag your image into the iBook image widget.
One thing I would definitely recommend is to attach a second monitor to your laptop. This provides for much more flexibility in working with images and the internet.

Dreamweaver Template Error: Error reading file (Site Location/info) returned incomplete data
Hello!
I am working on new website we are creating for our company. I have never really had any Dreamweaver template file errors before...so this one has me really stumped! We purchased the site files from Template Monster and I have contacted their tech support, but I have not had much luck with them.
I started out by creating the Dreamweaver template folder that includes the template files that I would like to use. I started creating some pages using the template. I placed all the html pages in the main folder of the website. When I go to update the template to those pages I get the following error: "Error reading file (Site Location\Folder name\Dreamweaver template name) returned incomplete data".
I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated!
The site is a CSS based site with a Flash navigation menu. Since it is in the production phase, I do not yet have it placed on a server so you can take a look at it at this time (although if really needed and we cannot find an answer, I may be able to get the test site on line - if someone thinks they can help me answer this problem by viewing the site). Right now the site is housed in the same place we house all of the other sites we have produced and all of our other templates on our other websites work just fine. The main difference with this site is that we did purchase files from Template Monster to help speed us along during the construction of the page structures and also this site has a Flash Navigation Menu and a few other Flash elements (something our other sites do not really have).
I am using Abobe Dreamweaver CS5 and Windows 7
Thanks again for taking the time to help find and answer to this problem!
-JI am curious as to why no one likes them around here.
They have spammed these forums in the past.
The code on their pages is rarely 'best-practice' code.
There are much better choices available.
My co-worker and I have to share the files, since we are editing the site together. The files are not local on our computers, but on the company's f drive that have Novell on it.
This arrangement is a recipe for disaster. The correct way to collaborate on a site with a colleague is with the following setup:
Each of you must have a LOCAL site (local to your workstation)
You would use a single remote location as a staging area, so each of you would have a site definition that specifies your own workstation for the local site, and the same network shared location as the Remote site
You will both need to enable Check In/ Check Out
You will both have to agree to PLAY BY THE RULES!
One (or both) of you will also need to have a second site defined that has the staging server as the local root folder, and would have the PRODUCTION server as the remote site. I'll explain how to use this site soon.
When you use CI/CO, your 'gold-standard files' are on the staging server. To begin working, you would connect to the staging server, and double click on a file, which will a) fetch the file from the staging server to your local site, and b) CHECK OUT the file to you. As long as you have the file checked out, it cannot be edited by your colleague. When you are done with your edit, you would CHECK IN the file (which uploads it to the staging server). It can now be edited by your colleague.
When you add templates to this scenario, things get even more complicated, although manageable. If you ever need to make a change to a template you must use the following procedure:
ALL FILES MUST BE CHECKED IN - this includes both you and your colleague.
One of you would connect with the SECOND SITE, open and edit the template, and save it propagating the changes to all "LOCAL" files (i.e., on the staging server).
Each of you would then need to return to the FIRST SITE, and again check out any files you want to work on.
When changes are done, and files are ready to publish, connect to the SECOND SITE, and upload the files from STAGING to PRODUCTION.
Does that make sense? It's important that it does.
I need to add in one more tab/link to the Flash nav bar.
Using Flash for navigation is a VERY POOR CHOICE, unless you also have redundant, text-based navigation on the pages. By using Flash to navigate, you guarantee: a) your pages will not be spiderable by search engines, b) your pages will not be navigable by iPlatforms, and c) your pages will be inaccessible to anyone browsing with screen assistive devices. Someone is making bad decisions about this site, in my opinion. -
IWork 09 Dinner Party Template
Bought iWork 09 yesterday and was building a Dinner party list with the understanding that after filling in my recipes, the template would total all my ingridients in the shopping list. But it doesn't do that. Is that how it is designed or am I missing something?
I looked at the template. It is not designed to put the ingredients or their amounts into the shopping list. It would be possible to redesign it so that it did that but it gets a little tricky. For instance, you might add additional recipes (i'e', you might have 4, 5, 6... recipe tables) and would have to have an easy way to include them all. That could be accommodated without too much trouble I think. The list might include the same ingredient more than once (you may have the same ingredient in two or more recipes) but you could sort the table by ingredient to group them together.
The trouble in making it more automatic than that is that an ingredient in one recipe might be in teaspoons but might be cups in another so the shopping list would have to convert both to a common unit (hopefully the larger of the two but it can't convert things like "box" or "small bottle"). I haven't thought hard on this but it doesn't sound trivial on the surface.
