Should I change the DOCTYPE in the Page Editor Options?

The Document Type Declaration I now have for my two sites is XHTML 1.0 Transitional. On the Authoring tab should I change this to HTML 5? Can this affect the pages I created several years ago with EW?
Also on the Defaults Fonts tab I see I have US/Western European (ISO). Should I change this to (UTF-8)? If I do that, should I also change to UTF-8 in the Site Settings?
I ask these questions because I see these settings in a new book I'm reading about Responsive Web Design. I haven't changed my sites for years and am way behind in my knowledge about how to do it.
One more question - I just read in a book published in 2007 that if I use the default UTF-8 bad things may happen. The author said that EW adds Byte Order Marks to the top of each page. She said that this may cause problems with some web servers and all
PHP pages.

The doctype setting affects new pages created; it does not change old pages. There is no need for you to change your old pages unless you want to / have a reason to.
The language character set under Default Fonts tells you which character set you are setting the Default fonts for, which determines what fonts EW uses in Code View, and in Design View if you haven't specified a font.  [This doesn't tell you
what fonts a user will see on your site if you don't specify fonts.]  This setting does not determine which character set your pages are actually using.  (If you look at UTF-8, you'll see it also has default fonts.)
Site Settings is where you would change the charset if UTF-8 is not what it is currently is set to.  (You'll see the encoding in the "Content-Type" meta tag in the page.)  This affects new pages you create, not existing
pages.
A book from 2007 does not relate to the current EW4.  Using byte order marks on normal pages isn't an issue.  Make sure you have php pages unchecked for byte order marks in Page Editor Options.  That should be the default setting for EW4.

  • Is it possible to change the page of a linked PDF without relinking?

    Is it possible to change the page of a linked PDF without relinking and going through the import options?
    I'm trying to import seveeral pages of the same PDF. The process would be quickest if I could import it once, then duplicate the image box a number of times, then just change the page number each image box is linking to.
    At the moment I'm having to relink (or place), then go through Import Options, then choose the page - it's a long process that feels like it should be quicker.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    The short answer is no, that's not possible, but it IS possible to import multiple pages at one time.
    My favorite script for this is from Scott Zanelli: InDesignSecrets » Blog Archive » Zanelli Releases MultiPageImporter for Importing both PDF and INDD Files, but there's also a sample script included with ID.

  • How to change the page size of a replicated container?

    Hi, I would like to change the page size of dbxml 2.3.10.10 containers in a replicated environment.
    This is what I tried so far:
    1) dbxml_dump/dbxml_load (bot utils not usable in a replicated environment)
    2) db_dump/db_load. db_dump works fine. db_load seems to work fine, since it succesfully creates a database/container from a dump file. But it does not correctly initialise the internal dbxml structures since the database/container can not be opened, although getContainers works...
    Besides writing my own dump/load clients, is there any other option to change the page size of an existing container?
    Regards,
    Jacobus Geluk

    Hi George,
    dbxml_dump seems to work fine, but ends with this message:
    DATA=END
    dbxml_dump: Non-replication DB_ENV handle attempting to modify a replicated environment
    dbxml_dump: dump <container name>.dbxml: Error: Unexpected error opening Configuration DB
    dbxml_load more or less has the same error...
    I am currently writing a little Java program that simply dumps all XML documents of all containers in a directory structure...
    That would work as long as the file system can handle it...
    I suppose dbxml_dump/load could be made to work quite easily by just copying their sources and specifiying the replication settings...
    All utilities that cause log activity, that currently do not support replicated environments, should support replicated environments that simply use the default replication transport mechanism. With some additional command line options like --sites it would work...
    Regards,
    Jacobus

  • How to change the page Header background colour in a Theme

    Hello,
    I want to know how to change the page header background colour. If you are in the Editor I don't find a property where to change it.
    If you are in the Theme Editor in the header bar I want to change stands <b>Theme Editor</b>. This (in my case blue colored bar) I want to change in another color.

    Hello Radhika,
    thanks for your answer. Where do I find the option for the pageheader in System Administration>Portal Display>Theme Editor ->IView Trays exactly?
    The pageheader is a picture, which must be uploaded for the web dynpro. Why should any webdynpro element in the ivew tray. There is no relationship between these two parts.
    I have not found any option to change the web dynpro pageheader. Could there any extra theme editor for webdynpro?
    Thanks.

  • How to change the page header?

    Hi,
    I just installed and started using Plumtree 6.0 a month ago, and we are still in a trial phase for our company's portal.
    I want to change the default page header to replace Plumtree logo to my company's logo. I thought I can change it in the style sheet, but I didn't find where to change in the cssmill folder. I found an artical in edocs.bea.com saying I can modify the header by using ALI Publisher, but I don't know what's the right way to do it and faster.
    Can someone guide me how to change the page header?
    Thank you. (if this is not the correct forum to post the question, please let me know which forum should I go)

    Depends on what you want to do. Personally, I'd do a header portlet and not touch the Plumtree/BEA logos. They're likely to be overwritten when the product receives updates.
    This may seem like a lot of steps, but really - it goes quickly
    ** Think through what you want to display. If all you want to do is replace the image, but you wan to keep the overall layout style then you can create a simple replacement header
    Step 1 - create a header portlet
    =======================
    If you're using Publisher...
    =====
    * Create a new portlet - choose the Header portlet template
    * Upload your image / change the header in the rich text editor
    If you're not using Publisher
    =====
    * Personally, static HTML will do just fine - create a folder and html file called something like "mybanner/mybanner.htm" on your remote portlet server
    * Plop in an image (you'll want to swipe some adaptive tags for community and page name - can always stick those in later)
    * Create a new remote portlet web service that references this HTML page
    * Create a portlet from the web service - make sure the type is "header"
    Step 2 - turn it on
    =======================
    * Create a new experience definition (or modify default - I usually create a new one so you can move it between environments)
    * In the experience definition's "header / footer" settings area, tell the header to load from the new header portlet you created
    * If you created a custom experience definition, modify your experience rules to load this experience defiintion according to whatever parameters you think make sense (just be careful you don't knock out your login page - we usually use security groups to just say "hey - the user is logged in and is, in fact, a member of this portal - that'll still let your login pages load)
    Done
    May seem like a lot of work, but really it's just a series of simple steps. Advantage here is you can vary things as you see fit and also just feel safe that the next time Plumtree/BEA updates those imageserver files you'll be good to go. From there you can get as fancy schmancy as you like using adaptive tags, etc. Heck - make it a .NET app if you want and do some crazy personalization or something. Embed stock tickers, important news alerts, whatever.
    That help at all?
    Thanks,
    Eric

  • Change the Page title of Default.aspx in SharePoint Hosted App using ECMA Script

    Basically i want to change page title dynamically. the thing is default.aspx page is present in the below location

    Say example i have one text box and submit button. when give the title in the text box and click on submit  the title should reflect in the page.

  • How to change the page color from white to gray in Indesign?

    While working on a document, the white pages (not pasteboard) appears too much bright to eyes. Is there any way to change the pages color from white to medium gray at display level only i.e. that gray should not appear while printing the document pages?
    Thanks,

    You haven't told us what version of InDesign or what operating system.
    If you have InDesign CC, you can change the color of the panels (Preferences > Interface). If you turn on Match Pasteboard Color in the same preference, you can make the pasteboard darker.
    However, to change the color of the page, you need to change your monitor brightness. On a Mac, that would be System Preferences > Displays and drag the brightness slider to the left.

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • How can I change the page size of a pdf so i can view it on my iphone more clearly?

    How can I change the page size of a pdf so i can view it on my iphone more clearly?

    I think there may be more to this question than you say.
    If your PDF page is say, 8 x 12 inches, and you found a way to scale it to 25%, changing it to 2 x 3 inch, shrinking everything on the page to quarter size - wouldn't it look exactly the same on the iPhone? It's just going to be the same as zooming.
    Or were you hoping for something more like in Word, where changing the page size keeps everything the same size and spreads it over more pages? That isn't something you can do.

  • How do I change the page size of a pdf?

    I'm trying to send a manuscript to a printing service in another city. It was produced using Microsoft Publisher. In Acrobat Pro I changed the page size from the default (8 1/2" x 11") to the size of my finished document --- 7.8" x 10". Yet when I send the manuscript to the printer it's still the larger size. I've tried right-clicking on the pdf printer and changing to a close approximation (7.5" by 10"), which is listed as one of the available alternatives, but it won't let me change it. What am I doing wrong?

    There's no real need to do that. A PDF can have pages of different sizes.

  • Change the Page Title for all the pages when viewing the Reports in Bi Publisher

    Hello ,
    I have a requirement for changing the Page Title for all the report displayed pages on the browser window.

    As far as I know, answer is NO.
    it's very simple answer  Manikandan-S-Oracle
    for 1210326 's requirements there are some places for changes of property "title" and in some pages "title" can be different
    "one place or option for changing" does not exist imho ( may be i'm wrong )
    so you can change places for your needs but not sure what it's adequate
    as example
    ...wls\user_projects\applications\bipdomain\xmlpserver\catalog\navigator.jsp  -->  find <title>
    it changes title in http://somehost:7001/xmlpserver/servlet/catalog
    ... wls\user_projects\applications\bipdomain\xmlpserver\home\home.jsp  -->  find <title>
    it changes title in http://somehost:7001/xmlpserver/servlet/home

  • How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?

    How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?
    I scanned a 50-page document with an HP 5610xi All-In-One using the software that comes with it: HP Scan Pro. Though the physical document has standard 8.5" x 11" pages, the PDF resulting from scanning has page size set to 35.42 × 48.67 inches (according to Preview's "Tools > Inspector". I want to resize the pages to 8.5" x 11". Shouldn't Preview be able to do that with "Tools > Adjust Size..."? When I try, the menu option is grey so I can't select it.
    I'm using Preview Version 4.2.

    Thanks for the insight; that explains why it's the wrong size. I selected 300dpi scanning (which is the default, actually), but HP Scan Pro evidently created a PDF with 72dpi indicated. I want it fixed because I want to distribute the file to other people and have them able to print or display it without problems.
    I still don't know why Preview won't let me change it, but your question about whether I wanted to print it did lead me to find a workaround: "File > Print" and "Save as PDF..." saved it with the correct page size.

  • Should I change the pricing procedure in SD ?

    Hhello
    we are running sales orders with a certain pricing procedure now for a long time. There are a lot of change requests for this pricing procedure, including structural changes like new sums and changes of positioning of a conditon type within the procedure. Should I change the existing pricing procedure to meet the new requirements or should I create a new procedure with a complete new structure, sums etc ?
    Please advice. What are possible problems, which can occure in one or the other method.
    Best regards and thanks for your help
    Rauno

    Hi Rauno,
    You should definitly copy the current pricing procedure and make your changes to the copy.
    The only disadvantage is that you can't mix old and new flows into e.g. the same billing document ( = pricing procedure is split criterium ).
    But the BIG advantage is that all your old flows will not get inconsistent 100% guaranteed ( when you 'look' at them, or do e.g. VA02 on an old flow etc..)
