Screen vs Print help

What do I need to do so that what I see on the screen will more closely match
my prints? I am printing to an epson picturemate, and use a Dell 1909W monitor
Thanks
Ari

You need to properly caliberate your monitor and need to select appropriate print settings...

Problems when printing help topics from OHJ

We have encountered some persistent problems when printing help topics from Oracle Help for Java (Ice Browser).
NOTE: When we print the same source files from Oracle Help for the Web, the printing problems are gone.
(1) Spacing Errors (all printers had identical results)
Text with special formatting (<b>, <i>) often has either too much space or not enough space.
Links often have extra spaces underlined before or after the link, itself.
(2) When printing multiple help topics from the TOC (an entire branch in the tree):
On some printers, no graphics print correctly, but instead print as one of the following: 1. empty box the size of one character, 2. black box the size of one character, 3. black box the size of the original graphic. We could not detect a pattern that caused 1, 2, or 3.
NOTE: all graphics are bit maps (screen captures) that were generated in the same manner.
NOTE: if these same help topics are printed one at a time form Oracle Help for Java, the graphics print fine.
Is this a problem with the Ice Browser?
Thanks for the help,
Wendy Studinski

There are a known issue with the ICEBrowser printing in some circumstances. The laying out of text by the ICE Browser relies on font metrics (being able to measure the width of a run of text in a given font). On screen it looks great, but when printing, even though the GraphicsConfiguration for the printer is being used, these widths are sometimes off, which can result in text running together at boundaries between text styles. We're not sure what to do about this problem, and we've reported it to IceSoft.
Not every font has this problem, so varying the font you are using might help the appearance when printed.
The other problem you report, problems with the images when printing multiple topics, is something that we will look into.

Fillable PDF returned with data, can't see on screen or print

Hi
Help!
I have created a fillable PDF. Client has sent out to their client. Form has been returned. Data is in the fields. However, cannot see the data on screen, or print the data.
Was able to save as / export to an fdf file, then open the fdf file and all details were visible. When printing, an error message popped up, however, everything on the page did print out as expected.
Not sure how the client sent out the original PDF, however, the buttons on the returned PDF have been stripped of their functions !! Somewhere along the process (not sure where/how) the function of the PDF changed!!! ?

No, there are a number of PDF viewers that don't support JavaScript at all. Preview is odd in that it removes a lot of things when it saves, including all JavaScripts, (field, page, document) actions, digital signatures, layers, and many other things. Other PDF viewers are less pernicious, but still don't have much or any support for either form fields or JavaScript. Even Adobe Reader on mobile devices has significantly less support than the desktop versions (Win/Mac) of Reader do.
It is possible to set up a form so that it is essentially unusable if the PDF viewer being used does not have sufficient support for JavaScript. This way the user is prevented from filling in the form and thinking that everything is OK. They will instead be warned to use Adobe Reader, or be allowed to proceed if using some other PDF viewer that is sufficient, such as PDF Expert on iOS, qPDF Notes on Android, or somethig like Foxit Reader or Nitro PDF Reader on Windows.

Borderless Printing Help

I really need some borderless printing help. I finally figured out with my printer, that the bottom margin is ridiculously offset so I need to use borderless printing to prevent the bottom footer from being cut off (HP 2610 printer, margins being read are .07"-top, .13"-right&left, .56"-bottom).
I know there is a way to choose borderless from the page setup screen. And I tried looking in the system preferences to see if I could choose borderless as the default but there doesn't seem to be a way as far as I can see.
Does anybody know if there is a way to override the settings and make the borderless 8.5x11 the default paper size instead of the standard US letter?
BTW I am looking to do this on a system-wide basis since multiple programs have this problem, but if anyone knows of ways to do this specifically in Pages or Word that would be helpful too.

Got it to work in MS Word 2004. Any idea of how to get it to save in Pages 2? I choose to Save As Default, but it keeps reverting back when I open a new document.

Newbie PDF screen display/print colour problem

First let me say I've been searching through the forums for an answer for my problem and drawn a blank, mostly I suspect because I'm not exactly sure what the problem is. Also I understand the basics of colour profiles but a large proportion of it goes over my head.
The problem:
Our key "corporate" colour is C0 M100 Y75 K25 - I can get reliable and pretty consistent print colour that I am happy with, across a range of devices from documents I produce in Indesign
For screen output e.g. our website, taking an average of several different devices and monitors (none with any kind of calibration i.e. an average user) this equates to approx R130 G11 B34
I am producing a number of PDF 'factsheets' that will be downloadable from the website and I anticipate that some people will just view these 'on screen' and some will print out for reference.
The problem is C0 M100 Y75 K25 and R130 G11 B34 look radically different when viewed on screen or printed - I almost need a PDF 'screen' profile and print profile within the same document. I know I can get a match on my screen if I calibrate it, but I need it to look more or less correct for anybody who views the PDF.
I hope I've explained this clearly enough and any help or direction anyone can give would be really appreciated!
Thanks in advance

Ahhhh...I see what you are saying now Rob. Unfortunately the docs don't soft proof correctly on my display either - take on board that my display is not calibrated and also I would think 99.9% of the target audience for the PDF won't have a calibrated display either - so I am after a solution that falls to the lowest common denominator.
However, if my understanding of what you are saying is correct, if I had a profile that I could use on my uncalibrated monitor that soft-proofs correctly (more or less - I'm not going for absolute accuracy, just somewhere in the right ballpark), then using the PDF/X4 preset with that profile set would mean others opening the PDF on similarly uncalibrated monitors would also see the more or less correct colours?
Would that profile not throw the colours out on the print if that end user then decided to print it out?
Again, apologies for the simple nature of the questions, but I've only been using InDesign for about 8 months and so far I've lived with the colours appearing wrong on screen as I've known they come out how I expect at print time. This is the first thing I've done where I would like it to look more-or-less correct on screen as well as in print.
Thanks for taking the time to reply, I really do appreciate it

How do i set it to fit to screen to print the entire file?

How do i set it to fit to screen to print the entire file? I have a file that is smaller than 8.5x11 but it says it's larger and clipping will occur and when I print it, it does not fit the paper. Ive even clicked the box that says Scale to Fit Paper Size and it's still giving me that message and cutting info off.
I also need to be able to size it by percentage so I can adjust it to fit into a pre made form Im working with.

First, I am new to this forum and I was told by Adobe that I would get help from Adobe as well as other users here, so that's why I posted. But nobody asked me for basic info about image dimensions and printing sizes. I never claimed to be an expert, just a basic user of PS, which is why Im asking for help. I've used this program for my basic needs which is probably 1/1000th of what PS is capable of, but it's what I've used and I've always had success doing what I needed to do with it. If you can help, I very much appreciate it but if you just want to slam me and say you don't believe what I say, then that's not really helpful. Since nobody else responded to this post with any offers for help, the info you seek is below. If you have any thoughts on how to help, I greatly appreciate it.
Im not sure how the image dimensions apply to my question at all but here they are: 3300x2550 with a 300 dpi resolution.
Im simply trying to get the program to allow me to fit the image to the paper Im printing and adjust it as necessary to make it fit a partially pre-printed form I need for work and in every PS version I've used that I can recall, it allowed that. It certainly allowed it, using the same printers Im using now, in CS5.
Also, you mentioned that the printer driver handles this but I can do this in every other program I have on this computer with the same printers, from Numbers (it's a Mac) to Preview to Mac Mail so why wouldn't it do the same thing in PS? That's what Im trying to find out here and with most software, I can pick up a phone or get on a one-on-one chat and get help, but apparently not with PS and since it's not a cheap program, I expected more. I never needed to call for help before using this new version, so that's something I need to consider.
Again, if you are able to help, I appreciate it. Thanks!

Photosmart 6510 Printer error/Blue screen on printer display Code:B864F472

Hello
I'm having a reoccurring problem with my HP Photosmart 6510 all-in-one. The printer will stay on for about five minutes, give or take, and proceed to flash a blue screen (on printer display) with error code B864F472
Next the screen displays a "Printer Error" message followed by "Please turn printer off and then on" with all lights on the printer flashing.
It will display this until I cycle the power and it repeats the same behavior after about five minutes.
I've searched extensively for a solution and have tried multiple things. Such as:
-Unplugging from back of printer and wall, 30 sec wait then plug back in.
-Clean cartridge and print header contacts.
-Set static IP.
-Printed various reports from service mode, No errors, Excellent signal strength.
-Connected to laptop through USB.
-Partial reset, Semi-Full reset.
-Reinstalled drivers on all computers.
-Updated firmware/software on printer itself.
-Ran HP Print and Scan Doctor.
-Reset Router
I'm at a loss now. The unit is just over a year old. I have two laptops and a desktop on the same network. Two computers running Windows 8.1 64-bit and the other Windows 7 64-bit.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem. and no solution
All seems to work before the 5 minuts (I can print diagnostic page from the PC), then I think it a microcode problem ...

Getting values from screen to search help exit

Hi Experts,
I have created a search help in which I am not using selection method but search help exit. Dialog type is 'Dialog with value restriction'. My requirement is to get the values entered in restriction screen into search help exit. Please suggest a parameter which will hold this value in search help exit function module.

Hi M,
As you know there are 5 steps in search help exit. For each step, the values in parameter of your search help exit is different.
For your requirement, you need process in step 'DISP', and get the selection value from 'SHLP-SELOPT'.
Example:
*Build range for customer number
LOOP AT shlp-selopt INTO ls_selopt WHERE shlpfield = 'KUNNR'.
lr_kunnr-sign = ls_selopt-sign.
lr_kunnr-option = ls_selopt-option.
lr_kunnr-low = ls_selopt-low.
lr_kunnr-high = ls_selopt-high.
APPEND lr_kunnr.
CLEAR: lr_kunnr.
ENDLOOP.
Then using the lr_kunnr range in your select statement.
regards,
Archer

My ios update keeps getting stuck on the Restoring iPhone software stage. I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it again, but still nothing. Now I can't even use my phone as it shows the plug into iTunes screen. Please help!!!! Thanks,

A Restore first downloads a new copy of iOS to your computer. On a slow Internet connection this can take a long time. How fast is your connection? How long would you expect it to take to download 900 MB?
That's assuming nothing is interfering with the download. Some firewalls and antivirus programs will block the download or slow it down. So you should temporarily disable your security software. Security software can also block the update after the iOS download is complete.

After updating to 10.10.3, now my Macbook Pro will not stay logged in. I log in after restarting, and it will stay logged in for 3-5 seconds then immediately log off and go back to the login screen. Any help?

After updating to 10.10.3, now my Macbook Pro 15" (mid-2014) will not stay logged in. I log in after restarting, and it will stay logged in for 3-5 seconds then immediately log off and go back to the login screen. Any help?
By the way, I also updated my Macbook Pro 17" (mid-2009) and it seems to be running fine, though I haven't tried to restart it and log in. I'm afraid I won't be able to get this one to work either if I do.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

.pdf reads fine on screen but prints very small making it almost illegible

reads fine on screen but prints very small making it almost illegible. What do I have to do? The .pdf is a single page and I have tried to bring it into a screen capture to break it down into different parts but it still remains very small when printed

Elements 10, windows 8, 64 bit, epson artisan 835 printer: prints are really dark even after using enhancements like adjusting lighting. Prints are darker than photoshop edit screen. Prints are acceptable using paint, windows photo viewer, or gallery.

In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

Selection screen as Subscreen help required

Hello All,
I am facing a problem by calling selection screen as subscreen, Here is my problem
In my main screen i have create a sub screen as search help
so in my sub-screen i have select-options
If i click the button to include and exclude some values i don't see the dailog box for selections is not appearing.
Please provide help. I need to allow the user to enter some n values?
Regards,
Lisa

Hi,
There is a small mistake that you are doing..
In the subscreen donot create the select options... What you need to do is... in the TOP Include write lines like..
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF SCREEN 1010 AS SUBSCREEN.
SELECT-OPTIONS s_proj FOR zimple_crmt_1000-title_part.
SELECT-OPTIONS s_cr FOR crmd_orderadm_h-object_id.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF SCREEN 1010 .
Then.. in the screen where you have subscreen to be included write
PBO
CALL SUBSCREEN subs_1010 INCLUDING sy-repid '1010'.
PAI
CALL SUBSCREEN subs_1010.
By doing this... the select option will appear on your subscreen with the extension and interval options.
All the best.
