Save As.. losing formatting???

Hi All
I have a Webi Report that can be saved to pdf or excel but my issue is that it the excel margins don't match web version, pdf version or the the settings in the properties of the webi report.  So i have two columns and part of a graph that run onto more pages when exported/save as to excel.  Is there any way to fix the margins without adding more space that causes my pdf report to change?   I have the properties set to 10 px, A4, Landscape.  Is this just a limitation of exporting?
Thanks!!!
Julie

Hi Julie,
There are some differences when exporting to Excel. I have had similar issues and had to adjust the Webi report to fit Excel when exporting. There is an option in Webi to have it consider Excel formatting as a priority. But this may or may not work. You may have to change the size of some of your columns/graphs.
If that doesn't work and you need to export regularly to both pdf and Excel, then you could copy the report and make a version for each.
Thanks

  • Save as file format CSV in Excel

    Does anyone know the correct syntax on this one?
    I have an excel file which should be saved as CSV.
    This is what I came up with, but it doesn't run.
    tell application "Microsoft Excel"
    activate worksheet "worksheet1"
    set fileSaveName to get save as file format CSV file format filename
    save as filename fileSaveName
    if fileSaveName is not "" then
    display dialog "Save as " & fileSaveName
    end if
    end tell

    It's not surprising it doesn't run but that's not entirely your fault. Excel has pone of the funkiest dictionaries around - I think they forgot to read the AppleScript Implementor's guide and instead tried to bolt VB on instead.
    Anyway, I digress...
    I'm not sure what you expect this line to do:
    set fileSaveName to get save as file format CSV file format filename
    but it's completely invalid. For one, save as is a command verb, not a function, so you cannot get save as.
    If you read the dictionary for Excel's save as command you'll find:
    save as sheet ¬
    filename unicode text ¬
    file format as ¬
    password unicode text ¬
    write reservation password unicode text ¬
    read only recommended boolean ¬
    create backup boolean ¬
    add to most recently used list boolean ¬
    overwrite boolean ¬
    save as local language boolean
    so the first, required, parameter is the sheet to save followed by any number of the optional parameters. Given the above, I'd expect your script to look more like:
    tell application "Microsoft Excel"
      save as worksheet "worksheet1" file format CSV file format filename "whatever.csv"
    end tell
    which is completely bass-ackwards, if you ask me, but that's how it goes.

  • Change default format in "save as" file format window

    I month ago I asked the following question...
    "How do I change the file format order that is listed in the "save as" file format window? Instead of having "Photoshop" listed as the default file, I'd like to have JPEG at the top, then TIFF, PSD, etc. I have to constantly scroll down the list to find JPEG."
    Recently while selecting JPEG in the "save as" format window, I accidently selected "Large Document Format" while holding down either "control", "option", "apple key", or "shift", or a combination of keys. Now the default format in the format window is "Large Document Format" (ext.PSB). I've changed the default from "Photoshop" which is still listed at the top, to "Large Document Format". I'd like to change the default to "JPEG" but I cannot replicate the correct key(s) to change the default format in the window.

    Hello TomGroup...
    I did not receive a satisfactory answer to the question. Yes, you can go
    into the Scripts but that is for experts and it is too much work.
    Aloha... Darrell

    Any updates on this issue?
    I have a similar situation in that no matter what I'm working on, when I
    click "Save As' then the default format option is always .tiff    If I save
    as jpg and then go onto my next file, the default is still tiff again when I
    try to save  No matter what I try, tiff is also my default selection.  It's
    just one of those things that takes a mere 5 seconds to click the dropdown
    and select .jpg, but 5 seconds times a couple hundred files per day...it
    adds up.

  • Change "save as" file format list

    Edit: Actually one could probably Script a dialog with a file-format-dropdown-list of one’s own devising, but that hardly seems worth the trouble.
    But with Configurator and some Scripting you can make a save-as-jpg (and save-as-psd and whatever) into a one-click operation.
    See that is exactly what I think is wrong with Configurator it allows you to some cosmetics but no real customizations there are lots of formats I do not need ever. There are things I would rather have a menu item than as a panel selection and there things I would rather have that only do a coupe of options by default but you never get the opportunity of doing these things with this program.

    Either use 'SYLKPIX Developer Studio SE' to develope the RAW files and to save them in another lossless format like TIFF, or try if Adobe's free DNG Coverter can convert your Lumix RAW files to dng. Then import the dngs. This way, your files will still be RAW files.  This works (most times) for my Lumix FZ28.

  • Reading in HTML file then writing to file - losing formatting.

    I am reading in a HTML file using a Buffered Reader then writing it to a file. However when i write it to a file using
    out = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(path, true)));
    out.write(content);
    out.flush();
    i seem to lose all carriage returns and find that the whole html is on one single line with the only noticable formatting being the spaces between the html tags.
    How can i stop it losing carriage returns?

    You only showed the part where you are writing it out.
    Does your reader code look like this:
      BufferedReader r = ...
      String content = "";
      while (true) {
        String line = r.readLine();
        if (line == null) break;
        content += line;
      }If it does, the problem lies here, as doing a readLine removes the line terminator. Soooo....
        content += line + "\n";Of course, to be most efficient and good, don't use String concatenation, use a StringBuffer (though it should be noted that when I decompiled this test code, suns compiler did indeed use a StringBuffer).
    When you print, use the PrintWriter methods print and priintln as they don't throw exceptions.

  • "Could not save as 'filename' because of a program error."  Won't allow me to save in ANY format!

    I have a large file (3500x8300px) that i have been working on in Photoshop CS4 and i tried to save it after working on it for about 30 minutes and got the following message: "Could not save as 'filename' because of a program error."  I tried saving it as .psd, .pdf, .tif, even .jpg and received the same message each time.  I closed down all other software to ensure that there was enough memory available but to no avail.  I then just closed my MBP and waited until the next day hoping it was just a glitch and might work later on.  I opened it up the next day (forgetting about the save issue) and worked on the file for a few more hours and then tried saving it again. (that's when i remembered the issue...too late...the work was already done).  Nope...still won't let me save it.  I'm afraid i'll have to restart the program but cannot afford to lose this work.  Any thoughts on how to fix it?
    *note: i tried 'save for web' and it allowed me to save it as a flattened image (although rather slow due to filesize) but i need it in a layered format.
    ANY HELP would be much appreciated!
    Thanks.

    There's a long-standing issue in which Windows 7 Explorer sometimes gloms onto image files in the process of caching thumbnails in Thumbs.db files.  Thing is, Windows 7 itself no longer uses these files, because a new thumbnail caching subsystem has been implemented that uses a central database, but the Thumbs.db creation has been maintained by default for compatibility.  The good news is that you can turn it off via the Local System Policy editor, to get some relief from file access conflicts.
    Do you have Windows 7?
    If ao, and you have no legacy apps that need Thumbs.db files, you can do this:
    Click Start, type gpedit.msc into the search box, and hit Enter.
    When the Local Group Policy Editor comes up, navigate into:
    > User Configuration
    > Administrative Templates
    > Windows Components
    > Windows Explorer
    Right-click the entry Turn off the caching of thumbnails in hidden thumbs.db files and choose Edit.
    Enable the setting.
    Log off Windows and back on.

  • Save as File Format  miss aligned

    When saving as  in photoshop CS6 on a mac pro  Lion 10.7.4  The File format are inncorect  I save as a tiff and get sct  I have to save as Photoshop DCS1.0 to get a tiff file  If there are a wider range of file formats available when saving an rgb formattted image  it is some times very difficult to work out which option to choose presently saving everything as psd as it is simpler.
    Also when opening files, the enable selection box is alway set to a blank  and i have to scroll down to the last two option to get "all readerble documents"   or "all documents"

    Yes you are partially correct  I did go to each of the developers site and download the latest versions of the plugins  Just forgot i will have to wait a few months before they will catch up.   But to be fair the files format plugins have been fairly forgiving in previous versions obviously not in this.  I keep on having to remind myself just why i have  all these versions of photoshop on my machine.
    Never mind  its great paying for a the complete work flow solution  that falls down beacuse thirdparty developers are not up to speed ie Font Management maybe that something you should bring in house

  • Save in different formats

    Hi There!
    I have a form in which I need to make the user choose the format in which he wants to save the data.
    I know that if I want to make him save the data in *.txt what I have to use is:
    Win_Api_Dialog.Save_File
    ('.txt',
    SMensaje,
    'c:\',
    'Text files(*.txt)|*.txt|');
    Anyone knows how can I do to make him choose between: txt, pdf, xml, xls, doc, etc.

  • Losing formatting when importing rtf file

    Hello and please help!
    Having just laid out 2 volumes of a 3 volume set via cutting & pasting and manually re-introducing formatting, I have been told in no uncertain terms (not by an expert, I add) that I can preserve everything by using rtf. I've tried this before & it failed. The original document is a Word file, which has been imported into Pages by my Mac. When I save it as an rtf and then place it, all formatting and font choices are removed, leaving me with dense text in Time Roman, when the rtf is in Ehrhardt.  Given that ongoing changes are being made to various editorial decisions, line spaces etc, the document has to be reformatted anyway, but if there is a way to import the volume 3 in such a way, I'd be really happy to know about it. Following the Adobe instructions has got me nowhere (could well be me though!). I've checked the import options and went for the preserve text.
    I'm using InDesign CC, working off a Mac.
    Thanks!

    If I open the rtf in TextEdit, all the formatting is there.
    This is an example of the panel I see (hardly legible, but hopefully it looks vaguely familiar). I'm wondering if there is a campatibility issue, but I am getting all sorts of grief from this individual who knows nothing about typesetting but has been told something by someone else, although it all relates to Word!
