Second master page displays as a blank page

Hi,
just wondering if there is a work around for the following scenario:
I have two different master pages (1 & 2) that are used to create two different page standards. I have two body pages (A & B ). Page A is placed on master page 1 and Page B is place on master page 2.
Depending on the type of data that comes into the form, I have two possible scenarios that will be rendered. For one user, I want to display and print body page A & B. For a second user, I want to display only body page A.
The problem arises when, for the second user, I hide body page B, however, an unwanted blank page appears on the form. This is a result of having two master pages, and not having subforms present on one of the master pages.
So, is there a way to render a form that has a master page with no subforms so that I don't see this extra page.
OR, a way to determine if a page is blank so that I can avoid printing it.
thanks,
John

I found an example that stops a subform from rendering if there is no data. See: Program Files\Adobe\Designer\EN\Samples\E-Ticket
However, all of my subforms have data, it is just that some is not relevant to some people.
I just found a solution that works ok. I set the relevant property to "-print" for the appropriate subForm.

Do nested tables conflict with ?split-by-page-break:? -getting blank pages

I have an RTF template with multiple levels of groupingwith sub-totals and pagebreaks at several levels. I'm using nested tables to keep the lowest level group together. The nested table works fine as far as keeping the rows together - if a group doesn't fit on a page, it is pushed to the next page; however, it has created some blank pages in the report. The first time I report the lowest level group details, if they don't fit on one page, I get a blank page followed by the data. Each time the lowest level group changes, this may or may not occur depending on the amount of data.
If you have come across this before or have some suggestions, I would really appreciate a response. I've been working on this for quite some time and have run out of things to try.
The template is quite complex and the XML very long, so I won't post. However I can email them to you if you'd like to take a look.
Thank you for your help,
Tam

Thanks for replying.
Yes, I tried removing the <?split-by-page-break:?> and using MS hard page break (ctrl-enter) and that doesn't work either. My totals moved to a separate page by themselves and I'm still getting the blank pages.
<?split-by-page-break:?> did exactly what it was supposed to until I added in the nested tables. It's very possible that I did something wrong with my nested tables (only my second XML report). Does anyone have a sample with nested tables that they would be willing to share?

I noticed when I restart Firefox 4, it opens my previous tabs even I set the option "Open a blank page" and it opens blank page when I have "Show my windows and tabs from last time". Please ignore my question if you're already aware of this issue. Thanks.

Page sequence adds a blank page

Hi,
when I use the hierarchy palette to change the order of my pages I get an extra blank page. Sometimes.
Page1
Page2
Page3
When I move Page 1 down a blank page appears at the top. If I move page 2 down nothing happens (incorrectly that is). If I put Page 1 back where it was the blank page goes away.
I cannot see the blank page in the Hierarchy pallette.
If i place objects on the blank page at the top they actually appear on another page at the bottom. However that page doesnt exist in the hierarchy. What does exist is the objects that I placed, directly child to the form1 node.
Moving Page 1 back to the top removes the blank page but the objects stay in the hierachy list and seem quite useless.
I suspect there is something set with Page 1 that I cannot determine. Can you?
I have looked at the xml but cannot really determine anything there. Incidentally viewing the xml tab really strains the performance. Is that normal?
Thanks
D

Here's the problem. I just figured this out after several months of frustration.
Look on your hierarchy tab that shows all of the pages in your document. Click on the page below the random blank page. Should be clicking on something like (Untitled Subform) (Page 1).
Now look on the right at layout toolbar. In every document that I was having problems with the height was higher than 10.5in which is what the document was set at. Try to reduce the height to 10.5 or whatever the size of your document is. If it goes back to the larger value, then you have page elements that either too high up, or too low and they need to be moved. Once all of the elements are withing the correct height, you can re-size the page and the blank page will disappear.

Content Pages are replaced by blank pages during PDF creation

Hi,
I'm creating a PDF from a series of TIFF images and encountering a problem.
I'll intermittently have 1 content page replaced by a blank page and this can happen anywhere in the PDF file. Upon several retries, I may just get rid of the problem. In a batch of 10 documents (50 & above TIFF pages), there may be up to 5 of them having this issue. Smaller jobs for up to 4 TIFF pages are alright. The inconsistency is frustrating as my operations involved thousands of these documents and I now have to validate every one of them.
Could this be a memory issue? I'm having a 2.6Ghz dual-core processor and 8GB RAM running Windows 2008 64bit Server.
Appreciate any ideas shared!
Thanks!

Perhaps ---
Maybe a blank PDF due to a "blank" TIFF which was the scanner output of a sheet of paper having no imprint (text, drawing, whatever).

Query regarding displaying of a blank page on the output of an invoice

hi All,
I am facing a problem in both my development and staging servers. Whenever a print preview of an invoice is seen, there are 3 pages getting displayed (depending on the data) with one BLANK PAGE between 2 pages having data ie., First page has the data, second page is blank and third page has some data again.
Now its very strange and i could not understand why this problem is arising.
I had debugged the invoice SAPScript, but culd not find the issue,. Can anyone please help me out in this regard.

How do I make new tabs default to my home page instead of a blank page?

My home page displays when I launch Firefox, but if I click the icon to open a new tab, the new tab displays a blank page. I want it to default to my home page.

Implementing multiple page size requirement - extra blank page at the end

My XMLP report requirement is as follows.
- The report is printing a bunch of lines.
- Based on data and layout requirement, lines are grouped into page where they belong (due to complex logic for determining which page a line should go to...this is done in PL/SQL package that is called in the beginning of the RDF trigger)
- The first page needs to be printed on Legal size paper
- Subsequent pages (IF NEEDED) need to be printed on Letter size paper
So some report will have a 1-page output (legal size), and some will have multiple pages (1st page should be legal size, subsequent on letter size).
Here is a sample XML data:
<REPORT>
<LIST_G_PAGE_NUMBER>
<G_PAGE_NUMBER>
<PAGE_NUMBER>1</PAGE_NUMBER>
<LIST_G_LINE>
     <G_LINE>...</G_LINE>
     <G_LINE>...</G_LINE>
</LIST_G_LINE>
</G_PAGE_NUMBER>
<G_PAGE_NUMBER>
<PAGE_NUMBER>2</PAGE_NUMBER>
<LIST_G_LINE>
     <G_LINE>...</G_LINE>
     <G_LINE>...</G_LINE>
</LIST_G_LINE>
</G_PAGE_NUMBER>
<G_PAGE_NUMBER>
<PAGE_NUMBER>3</PAGE_NUMBER>
<LIST_G_LINE>
     <G_LINE>...</G_LINE>
     <G_LINE>...</G_LINE>
</LIST_G_LINE>
</G_PAGE_NUMBER>
</LIST_G_PAGE_NUMBER>
</REPORT>
For this, I created 2-pages RTF template and using the Word Page Setup feature:
1. First page setup is legal size (go to Page Setup, Paper tab, choose Letter and choose Apply to "Whole Document").
The first page has the following XMLP tag:
<?for-each: G_PAGE_NUMBER?>
<?if: PAGE_NUMBER=1?><?call:body?><?end if?>
<?end for-each?>
<?template:body?>
for-each loop that prints lines in a tabular format
<?end template?>
2. Second page setup is letter size (go to Page Setup, Paper, choose Letter and choose Apply to "This point forward").
<?for-each: G_PAGE_NUMBER?>
<?if: PAGE_NUMBER>1?><?call:body?><-- Ctrl-Break to insert a page break here --> <?end if?>
<?end for-each?>
It almost worked, except there is a blank page printed at the end. How do I remove the blank page? I have tried to use <?split-by-page-break:?> instead of the Ctrl-Break, but it did not seem to work (there is no page break happening at all).
I think the extra page is due to the multiple page nature of the RTF template. Is there a way to control the page size through XMLP tag (or XSL-FO). With that, I can try having a single page template and put the page size control within the XMLP / XSL-FO tag and hope that the extra blank page at the end will go away. Can someone please help?
Thank you!

Sorry for the typo in my previous post... I meant Ctrl-Enter (not Ctrl-Break).

When printing a web page, I only get blank pages

I have a new iMac with MAC OS 10.4.11. I connected an HP psc 2175xi all-in-one printer, and when I try to print a web page from Safari, I only get a very small portion of the header and all other pages are blank. When looking at the Print Preview, every thing looks like it has printed fine, but when it is sent to the printer only blank pages come out. I am able to print from other applications fine. It seems to be related to printing web pages only, because I have also tried to print using Firefox, but the same problem occurs. Can anyone please help?
Thanks.

I did not have the HP printer software for Mac OSX installed properly. Once installed the problem went away.

Custom page size results in blank page

I have a networked HP Color Laserjet 2605dn printer and have some 7.25"x5.25" envelopes that I need to print addresses on. So, I created a FileMaker database and went to print them with a custom page size I created and only get blank pages. If I change the page size to US Letter, it's OK, but obviously, the text appears in the wrong place. I used a different application Intaglio to see if it's a FileMaker issue or Mac OS issue and the problem occurs with Intaglio, also.
Just to be sure, I have re-installed the most recent HP driver (4.3.5.153) and there's still no difference. I do have the proper driver selected. The Generic Postscript driver does not appear to allow custom page sizes. I'm led to believe the HP driver may simply not support custom page sizes. Looks like I might have to use a Windows system to print these???? What a shame.

You may find that this a printer limitation rather than a driver issue. Is the envelope size you are using a supported size by the printer? If not, the envelope could be printing blank because the X-Y coordinates for the start of the text are based on a different size to the one you are loading into the printer. This would cause the text to print to a section that the envelope doesn't cover.
Some printers make you select a free-size setting for non-supported sizes and then rely on the driver to write the text onto the correct spot. Do you have such an option.

Page Break-An extra blank page as the last page.

I have a template with a page break (<?split-by-page-break:?>) at the end of the template prior to the end of loop <?end for-each?>. This is causing an extra blank page at the end everytime the report is run. I checked this forum and got some pointers and used couple of them but didn't get the blank page to go!
I tried this in my page break filed! <?if:position()!=last()?><?split-by-page-break:?><?end if?>
Please help.
Thanks,
Fran

Hi, ive faced a similar problem in the past, I worked around it using subtemplates, but it still gives out an extra blank page if the content on the last page comes within 3 lines of the bottom of the page.. otherwise its ok..if you could send me your template and a sample xml file at domnic26ATgmail, i will see what i can do to help.

Where si teh Sub Page Display for the Root Page

In the page property you can change the Sub Page Display and
change the Available Sub-Pages and Displayed Sub-Pages but I dont see that option for the root page.

hi suzie,
i just checked and the option is there. go to the root page - go into edit mode - click on 'page properties' (not page group properties !) and go to the optional tab. you find the option at the bottom of this tab.

Often firefox does not load my inbox page--I get a blank page instead

1. My e-mail pages (specifically the inbox) often just doesn't load in Firefox: a blank page sprouts up and a tab showing the URL that supposedly has been entered, but even when I click that specific tab again, the page remains blank.--Then I have to resort to my inbox icon on the Yahoo toolbar before I can access my inbox.
2. The Firefox window takes a very long time to emerge; sometimes I have to click the "Quick Launch" in my taskbar 2 or 3 times before
the window comes up--this still happens though I updated the driver for my Network adapter recently.

From Demo:
If you are getting the blank app update screen, many people are having this problem over the last couple of days.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this. It is a workaround only until then.
If the above does not work try:
I understand that your App Store does not show your app updates. Please follow the steps below to help resolve the issue.
1. Close All Apps on iPad: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
2. Sign out of iTunes & App Stores: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Tap AppleID > Sign out
3. Reset All Settings: Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings

HELP! Trying to print on an envelope (logo/return address), but when change page/paper size, prints blank page

Before now, I have really only used Acrobat to convert and send uneditable documents (just to give you an idea that I am not used to trying to edit docs or print them out in paper sizes other than 8.5 x 11. However, I have a document (created by a graphic designer) that was designed to be viewed as a sample, not really to be printed and now want to print it directly on an envelope. I have created a custom paper size in the Print Setup menu and have also cropped the PDF page size to be similar (although not exact) to the envelope size. When I try to print it, my printer prints out a blank page.
Any thoughts?

You need to select the paper size in the printer setup that corresponds to the letter size that you are using. If you just crop to the approximately correct size you may find that the orientation of the page is wrong and various scaling options in the print dialog box can further confuse the issue.
