Showing invisible parts of the document when print is cancelled
The recommended way to hide content of a form designed in LifeCycle Designer 7.0 is to make the non-printable elements invisible in the prePrint event and to show them again in the postPrint event.
When the print is initiated, the respective objects become invisible and they are shown again after the print is executed with OK. However, when the print is cancelled by pressing Cancel, no postPrint event occurs and the objects remain invisible.
We have not found a workaround for this problem which appears to be a major functional issue which makes the advertised way of hiding content for printing not viable. That makes the product unusable for our purposes.
We have also tried to create a layered PDF with InDesign and adding control elements to this document. The plan was to mark some of the layers as non-printable in Acrobat. However, after we added the control elements, saved the file and opened it in Acrobat, all the layers were lost.
Is there a way to workaround this problem?
Thank you for responding. Below is some info.
Please see the clipping on the "d" in Pastel Bond and White Bond and the rounded part of the "R" in 2 &3 Part NCR. We have had this happen on occasion with other files as well. Thanks for the help.

I created a magazine using a template including bleeds. When I exported to make a PDF, it cut off part of the document when uploading for printing. When I incude bleeds, it makes the document too big for printing. I need help

Right, so to advise you we'd need to know the particulars of MagCloud's spec for your project; format, trim size, bleed, etc.
It's doubtful that anything happened "when uploading for printing," so long as you were uploading a PDF, as opposed to the native InDesign file. Did the PDF look right to you before uploading? -
Making a password show what parts of the document you see
I have a random request from a client that I am not sure is even possible.
They want their document to be used by two people, one of them will only be able to see say 4 pages of it while the other will be able to see it all including what the person before had entered.
I think you can get around the text part quite easily but to have it show different parts of the form via a password is very hard for me to do (even if it is possible at all)
Can anyone lend me a hand in this?
If you need me information feel free to ask.It sure is possible. I have been doing it for quite some time now and this would be a perfect situation for the Action Builder if coding in FormCalc is not your thing, but I can give you both.. I will use a sample form for the demo so if the lingo doesn't match up to your form, let me know or if you need an example. If anyone has anything simpler or I missed something, let me know. PM me if you want a sample form.
Create a new PDF and add in a second blank page and set that page to hidden in the Object field. Place a text field on page 1. Go to the Action Builder (in Windows go to the toolbar at the top, then "Tools" then select "Action Builder". The Action Builder is a great tool to add some extra functions into your PDFs with the preset actions. From the Action Tool box select the "Add New Item" from the top left of the box, right next to the trash can icon. This will create a new Action. There are 2 things for the Action: a condition and then a result. In the Condition section click the "object" link and then select the text field you put on page 1. Once you select the text field, the Condition box will change to "when text field TextField1...." and there will be 2 drop down boxes. With the condition set as "Is" put your password in the blank field. Then in the Result section select the drop down box and go to "Show/Hide an Object"and then select Page 2. What this will do is when TextField1 is equal to your password, page 2 will be visible. You can do this with not only a page, but specific elements within the PDF. So additional Textfields, pages, static text or other elements. One thing to keep in mind is what I like to call "foward/backwards logic" in that a user can enter the password to show the data, then remove it to hide whatever. Just go back through the Action Builder in reverse order that you did, where when TextField1 IS NOT the password, set the elements to hidden.
If you can do this via Formcalc, the setup would be similar, but instead of using the Action Builder you could do something like, create a numericField that has a number based password. On that field, go to your Script Editor, select "Change: from the show section, change the Language to FormCalc and then enter:
if ($.rawValue==1)then
xfa.resolveNode("Page1).presence = "visible"
else xfa.resolveNode("Page1").presence = "hidden"
endif
The bolded 1 is the password. The second and third lines cover what you want hidden or visible. So change whatever you want the password to, change the hidden and visible sections and then give it a try. You could even set this on a docReady show option as well to check that field when the form is opened if perhaps the first person saved the PDF with the hidden sections open. That way they do not need to enter the password every single time. Of course before they send it they should remove the password. Just be ready that whenever the user opens the form, even if they do not change anything, they will be prompted to save. -

HT4356 When printing from the iPad how to control how many pages of the document to print?
When printing from the iPad, how to control how. Any pages of the document to print?
You got me curious (even though I've never used coupons.com, and I have an AirPrint printer). So I checked out coupons.com in the iTunes Store and found the following two reviews that I think explain everything:
Based on the above, my conclusion is coupons.com is set up to print on wireless HP printers from an iPad. You could print to a non-AirPrint HP printer as well using an app from the iTunes Store. But the non-AirPrint printers do offer considerably less compatibility with Apple's iPad applications than the AirPrint ones do. For example, in the Epson case, non-AirPrint Epsons can print from Safari but not from email. -
I am using adobe photoshop cs6. I am facing a problem. When i save any image as "save for web". After saving image it show cropped. An image show many parts of the image after saving the image. Please help me. Thanks in advance.
Just go back in photoshop and use the Slice Select tool, then just click and select the slice and hit delete - if you're not sure which one is the active slice just right click and find the one that has the Delete Slice option.
It's possible you either added the slices by accident or if you received it from someone they just had the slices hidden. For the future, you can go to View > Show > Slices to display (or hide) slices. -

For example, I have the following document:
<url> http://www.abc.com </url>
<headline> A headline for this article </headline>
<pub_date> 20001208 </pub_date>
<text>
This is a document content
</text>
I know that I can use session (field) for the tags.
Can I compare the content of <pub_date> with the query.
Can I retrive part of the document, say, just the <text> content only?
ThanksHi,
Could you tell me what version of Word are you using?

Shrunken Document When Printing
Hello I've been trying to print my Pages documents, but it isn't working out quite so well. In Print Preview, the text fills out an 8.5 x 11 letter size page, but when the document is printed, the text does not fill up the entire page.
I've browsed through the discussion boards, and applied the remedies posted. I am not showing comments, which was the main problem for everyone else.
For reference, I am trying to print a standard text document, facing pages, inside margin 2.54 cm, outside margin 0.54 cm.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.7)You need to make sure your paper size is correct:
• Open the Inspector.
• Click on the blank white page icon to the far left.
• Make sure all the margins and page size are correct.
• If they are. then close the Inspector and press ⌘ +p.
In the lower print pulldown menu (which defaults to 'copies and pages' ) choose 'layout'. See if everything there is set up correctly.
I have had some weird print problems when using Pages to open Appleworks docs. The problems righted themselves when I re-chose my settings in the Inspector.
Most printers also allow some sort of percentage printing. Make sure you are printing at 100%.

How can I stop Pages from changing parts of a document when I am progressing through an 8 page newsletter. When I go back to check something some headings have moved and been put out of context. I can't lock the individual pages of the document to prevent this happening.
The Amazon iWork '09 is a DVD in a boxed set.
Downloading is transferring something from the Internet.
I think you are talking about not having a DVD drive?
To install the DVD version, either get an external USB DVD drive, they are cheap on eBAy or borrow another computer and drag the iWork Installer onto a USB Flash Drive and install from that.

Oversize documents being rendered with parts of the document cut off due to the large size
We are invoking web services on LiveCycle Server ES 8.2 to convert non pdf documents to pdf. We noticed that oversized documents are rendered with parts of it cut off when submitted for conversion.
Has anyone seen this before and how we can resolve this?
Thanks in advance.The oversized file issue happens when we try to convert legal size documents. Part of the document is cut off.
Any documents wider than 8 and 1/2 by 11 has this issues. -
JEditorPane: how to replace small parts of the document?
Hi
Im trying to create an application that will allow two people to type into two different JEditorPanes, but have the two people essentially editing the same document. So if one person types someting into thier frame, I want that modification sent to the other frame as well.
The problem I've come across is how to make changes to the contents of the frame without interfering with the person whos trying to type into it. That problem boils down to how do you replace only a small part of the document whithout taking control of the users caret?Hopfully I got your problem right. To change only small parts of the EditorPane's document should not be the probelm you can get it with EditorPane.getDocument(). But I think you have to take control over the caret, because the when user 1 has finished editing and sends the doc to user 2 who is editing the doc, user 2's caret position will change because the document length has changed.
The easiest way would be to add an input area (TextArea) for each user where they can type theit text and than to add the text into the document when they press enter, so you don't have the trouble with te caret position. If you don't want to do this then you could try that: the input of the users is cached while they are typing (not changing the doc) till they press enter. Then the doc is send to the other user, the users doc in the pane is updated and his current typing is added to the end of the new received doc. You can figure out the correct position by doc.getLength() and set the new caret position to doc.length + currentTyping.length
Hope that helps

Centrally positioning a document when printing a booklet (CS4).
Good morning everyone,
I'm printing a document using the print booklet feature, 2-sided saddle stitch. The document is then stapled along the center margin.
The document is being printed onto A3 paper using a Xerox Phaser 7760.
The document in terms of dimensions is smaller than A3 and does not have to be scaled down - thus printed at 100%.
When the document is printed the document is not positioned centrally when measuring from crop marks to the edge of the paper on the left measuring 20mm and on the right 18mm.
Please see image below.
Because the document is printed two sided when I fold the document the alignments are all wrong, I essentially need the document to be positioned exactly centered with a measurement of 19mm on both the left and the right.
My print settings are set as follows, using the print booklet feature, i have matched the settings to the printer settings and the problem still persists.
Please note i have tried printing it with/without the creep setting to 0.5 and it has made no difference. The problem also persists if i match my printers print settings to those of the indesign built in print settings as i was convinced there may be a conflict of interests between the two.
I hope you can help and look forward to hearing from you,
All the best,
Joe.I have printed the document numerous times one and two sided and measured them all individually to see if there was any variation as you suggested but the problem is identical on each print out, 20mm on the left and 18mm on the right.
I'm not entirely sure it's the printer or I would expect to see some variation as you suggested - could it possibly be something is set wrong within the print settings within indesign - that's causing this small but rather difficult to solve problem.
Obviously as you say i could amend the designs and shift everything 2mm and enlarge the bleeds to allow for the shift but essentially I'm not willing to commit to these alterations until I'm fully convinced that it is not the software causing the issue.
Thanks again,
All the best,
Joe.
