Save document on first page

Is there a simple way to set a document when it is saved in a script so that when it is opened in InDesign, it opens to the first page?
My script generates a number of pages and then saves the document. It always opens to the last page, which I understand because it was the last page defined. Can I make it open on the first page?
Thanks!

Hi,
with (app.activeDocument.layoutWindows[0]) {
          screenMode = ScreenModeOptions.PREVIEW_TO_PAGE;
          activePage = app.activeDocument.pages[0];
          zoom(ZoomOptions.FIT_PAGE);
... and now save it.

How do I save documents on iwork/pages on my ipad?

Many images from the web can be saved to the iPad's camera roll by tapping and holding on the image itself. A dialog box pops up with "Save Image" as one of the options.
Facebook handles some images slightly differently, since it's trying to respect its users' privacy preferences. If the tap and hold trick doesn't work, the image may have a "Download" link beneath it and to the right. If you tap the "Download" link, you'll then see a bare version of the image in Safari. You can then tap and hold *that* image to save it to the iPad's camera roll.
If there's no "Download" link either, it means the user has set up their privacy settings such that you can't download the image. At that point your only workaround would be to snap a screenshot by clicking the home and power buttons simultaenously. That saves the current screen to the camera roll.

Pages 5.0 will not save documents created in Pages 09

I have hundreds of important documents I created and saved in Pages 09. I got a new Mac Mini running Mavericks 10.9.5 with the new Pages 5.0. The new Pages will not save my Pages 09 documents. Pages 09 will not save them either. Help!

1. Is it possible you installed from a demo installer and your 30 day trial period is up, when it goes into Read Only mode?
2. Where and what was your purchased disk?
3. Where are you saving to?
4. Have you tried saving somewhere else eg an external hard drive and see what happens then?
5. The auto-saving issue with Pages 5.2.2 could be problems with iCloud and online access.

Why can't i save documents made in Pages in iCloud?

When I make a new document in Pages and want to save it, there is no option to save it in iCloud. What must I do to be able to do that?

Only Mountain Lion has that feature. If you are using Lion, then you'll have to log into icloud.com with your mac and go to the iWork page. There you can upload your Pages document. However, it will not be available if you don't have Pages iOS on one of your devices that are connected to the same account.

How do I save documents in 2009 Pages for my new IMac

I have a new 10.10.2 iMac and cannot open saved documents from older version of pages. Is there a way to convert them?

Pages 5.5.2 can't open files from versions before Pages '09.
You should have Pages '08/'09 in your Applications/iWork folder.
Open your files with that.

Pages can't create kind of document first page on vertical and second page on horizon

help me i won't create kind of document are first page on vertical and second page on horizon.

pages on iOS dosnt support making new documents with landscape view. I think this would also make it so you could not combine the two orientations in a single document.
I was able to get a landscape document made by making it on the desktop, emailing it to myself, then saving it in pages on my ipad. Not sure if that would work for a combination document.

Printing only first page landscape not portrait

Acrobat Standard for Windows v.8
When using Acrobat to print any PDF document, the first page is printed in landscape instead of portrait, the rest of the pages print as expected. This is reproduceable behavior on a single machine. Printing the PDF using other applications like InDesign or eCopy Desktop print as expected. Only Acrobat is exhibiting this behavior.
Acrobat has been reapired, uninstalled and reinstalled, printer drivers reinstalled with no success. The work around I have figured out (as a temporary solution so the user can print documents properly) is to select to print the PDF in landscape orientation in the print driver when printing from Acrobat, which prints the whole document in portrait orientation, essentially what was supposed to happen in the first place. This orientation change only seems to affect the first page and doesn't have any affect on duplex orientation.
Does anyone have a solution to this one? Or some direction? Thanks in advance.

Try one of these:
1/ In Adobe, deselect "Choose Paper based on PDF size" - you can leave the "Auto Rotate and Center" on.
2/ In Adobe, go into Advanced and choose "Print as Image".
3/ If this is a Canon H1 Fiery RIP, go into Printer Properties, Printing Preferences, Layout, Rotate 180degrees and choose "Large Paper Only."

Insert Document name at bottom of first page

Is there a way to insert the document name as automatic text at the bottom of the first page? This was a simple "automatic text" script that Word has had for years. All of our documents are saved with names relating to what the document is and where it gets filed. Our paper folder structure is pretty much identical to the folder structure of our file server. It is very convenient to have the name of the document printed at the bottm of the first page so that when it comes time to filing our hard copies, one knows exactly where to file it.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Hello all - I appreciate your responses. Brooks - you are correct. That is exactly what I am looking for. From a filing perspective, that is an amazingly useful feature. I am going to check into the scripting path. If Pages is indeed scriptable, I would be shocked if there is not a way to provide this feature.
Gerry - you are correct about the saving part. In Word, you must save the document first, close it, and reopen it before printing in order for the file name to appear.
Thanks again to everyone who replied.

Pages V5 COULDN'T AUTO-SAVE DOCUMENT error message

Why am I getting this error message when I attempt to save a document, duplicate a document, move a document--"Couldn't Auto-Save Document" I cannot save the document. I originally opened this document from the server computer to my laptop, made changes on the laptop at remote office and now I cannot save it, even to a new location on the laptop.

Hi.
I was just now suddenly afflicted by this problem.
Have new macbook pro retina - iOS X 10.9.2.
Everything is up to date.
Even Pages is up to date. checked it (of course), as soon as I started getting the error message every time I tried to save. Even tried saving or 'exporting' to Word, PDF...still same message.
Now...I recall that any time an app is 'acting up' (i.e. not responding the way it should)...it usually means that it either needs updating, or it has some sort of 'bug' to it.
If it needs updating...then simply update it. I checked that option...and got message that Pages is indeed up to date.
So...opted to simply 'force quit' pages (as well as quit many other still-open apps that I wasn't using at the moment...to try to cut down on excess memory being used...thinking that may be part of the problem.
Also...thought that maybe my hard disk was getting rather full...so opted also to move all my music, movies & pictures to an external hard disk to free up internal storage space (by eventually deleting all after first backing up to external hard disk)...and then of course finally freeing up all space by emptying the trash.
Then...after force quitting pages (and all other non-used apps at the time)...and still before completing the transfer of all those heavy files to an external hard disk...then I re-opened pages to test it...and 'WHOALA!"...it worked just fine!!!
So...it seems that this was the solution...at least for me at this moment...to simply force quit the renegade app, and then re-start it.
If that didn't work, I was going to simply shut down the computer...and do a complete re-start. That is another option that often times gives a new look to life for apps which are acting up.
OK...just thought to put in my two cents-worth here.
Hope this helps someone else.

Balqees Mohammed.

You need to totally delete the demo version first:

I can't save documents in Pages.

I can't save documents in Pages. I get a "file does not exist" error message. I've tried changing the file name, length, and location. To no avail. This is only sporadic.

Hey fruhulda,
I have a similar problem although I'm running OSX 10.9.5. I'v just started to completely remove pages and attempt a reinstall. I did the search for the plist file. There was only one file with the com.apple.iwork.pages name but it did not have the .plist extension, even when I checked the info page. Is this the same file?
I'm not sure I want to update to Yosemite yet, but it looks like I may have to in order to continue to work with my pages documents, unless the reinstall works.

In Pages '09, how do I remove the header from the first page of the document in a page layout document?

Working Pages '09, I am trying to set up a multi-page document using page layout (not a word processing document, because I'll be using lots of graphics and text boxes), with headers and footers, but no header on the first page, as this will be the title page. The layout>section pane has the 'First page is different' option greyed out (because it's a word processor only option). Help tells me that each page is it's own section in page layout, but there is no way to have one page without a header and all the others with, as far as I can tell. Am I completely missing something or is there a way around this?
Also, I want to do this again for additional chapters in the document (or else, I believe, be forced to manually start page numbering for each chapter in a new document).
Cheers.

Hi, Barry. I don't know why this solution didn't work for me :-\ Does it matter that my page numbers are in the footer and not the header? When I follow your direction, the pages do get numbered differently. My problem occurs with the last step.
1. Open the Inspector. (Check!)
2. Click the Layout button (second from left). (Check!)
3. Click Section. (Check!)
4. Make the two settings shown: (Check!)
5. Go to Page 1 and delete the contents of the Header. (When I do this, the content for all footers is deleted...)
I really appreciate your insight.

Pages, Numbers and Keynotes doesn't allow me to save documents

I created a new document in pages, numbers or keynote and, when trying to save it to my documents folder, it shows me "Couldn't auto-save document".
I've tried with different folders with the same results.
There's no problem when saving to iCloud.
I had installed iWork'09 and moved it to another folder.
Versions are: Pages 5.2.2, Numbers 3.2.2 with OSX 10.9.5 Mavericks in a iMac 27-inch late 2009

Are you running any anti-virus, anti-malware on your Mac? If so, disable this a/v software.
If not, I would suggest the following:
Boot into Recovery (hold command+R at the chime)
Run Disk Utility (verify/repair permissions, and verify drive) on your boot drive
Reboot normally
Boot into safe mode ( you can do this during the above reboot)
At boot chime, press and hold shift key until horizontal progress bar appears
At login prompt, press and hold shift key, after your password, but before clicking right arrow to log in.Press and hold shift key until your Desktop appears
Reboot normally
Re-evaluate if Pages auto-save failure dialog gone.
