Single page to spread ?

How can I move pages of doc printed single page to spread format and move the pages around?

Yes I know that, but I can't get the single page viewing to go to spread viewing in the thum
bnail bar on the left. I can't drag one up beside the other, just above or b
elow.

Creating a pdf document with both single pages and spreads

Hi, i'm not sure if this is possible, but basically i'd like to set up a document which allows me view the first three pages as single sheets and the remainder of the document as a booklet. The reason for this is I'm sending a cover letter, CV and then a booklet via email to apply for a job, and the booklet i have created has graphics which run accross the spread. I was hoping to lay the document as such:
1. cover letter
2. CV
3. Booklet front cover
4-5. booklet spread
6-7. booklet spread
8-9. booklet spread
I'm not too familiar with how to set this up (or if this is possible), could anyone point me in the right direction?

@Dave Merchant - The pages are true spreads, I've had a go at attempting to define the page type by the master but i can't seem to get it to split the document so that the first three pages remain single. I had a go at trying to create an entire new document with the pages in in order, but not sure how to insert single pages and spreads combined within the document.
@Test Screen Name - Do you know how i would be able to create such a document within indesign? i've had a look for some answers in the documentation but havent come accross anything yet (im on CS5). I had a go at combining the documents as the booklet and the single pages, but when i change the view options in acrobat to two page the first pages becomes a cover and the second and third are next to each other.

2 single pages, then spreads possible?

For a PDF ebook, I'd like to have the layout be like this:
Jacket front (single page), Page 1 (single page), Page 2–31 (spreads), page 32 (single), Jacket back (single).
I can get the pagination right by having the Jacket front be page i. But I can't get Acrobat to allow this sequence:
Single page; single page; several spreads (with 2 page numbers per spread); single page; single page.
Acrobat will only allow 1 single page, multiple spreads, 1 single page.
The only workaround so far is to add a blank page to the left of page 1 and one to the right of page 32, which is pretty clunky. Any better ideas? (Guess I could fill the blank pages with something...)
Thanks!

Single pages and spreads in alternate layouts

Hi, I am currently creating an alternate layout for a multipage InDesign document that already contains my print version inside the document. I have an understanding on how to create the alternate layout (for IPad: 1024px X 768px) yet when I create them the alternate Ipad layout appears as spreads. How can I make them into single pages while maintaining my spreads in my print layout.

You’re wasting your time, IMO. There’s simply no need to do this.
I would save it as a new file and work on that.
That said, I would encourage you to post in the InDesign EPUB forum.
BTW, what version of InDesign are you using?

Acrobat single page view - can't make it work.

Hi, everyone.
I have created a book using Blurb's template for InDesign. After I finished the book I exported it as a PDF file and wanted to review it on my notebook and iPad but Acrobat only displays it in two page view (the 'spread' as InDesign refers to it).
I've tried a vew options in Acrobat including view in single page mode but so far haven't been able to make it work. In addition, although I have chosen the option in Acrobat to have a space displayed between pages when viewing the 2-page spread, the space still doesn't show.
Any ideas as to how this can be accomplished ?
I need to be able to see this PDF on page at a time instead of the 2-page spread as Acrobat displays it now.
Thank you in advance for your help.

The fix is on the InDesign side since what appears to be two pages is really a single page in the PDF. Export as single pages, not spreads. For example: http://indesignsecrets.com/interactive-pdf-from-indesign-cs5-always-has-spreads-on.php

Creating a Single Page Peel Interactive Online Brochure

I'm new to InDesign CS4. Could someone help me in explaining how I can create a single turning page peel interactive online book. I have the job done in InDesign using spread pages format.... and I'm looking to try and output to SWF format as single pages (not spreads). How do insert single pages as I keep getting spreads outputted to SWF format so that a single page displays online and peels to the next page.
Any suggestions.
Regards,
Anthony

deselect the spreads checkbox in the swf export dialog

Four Page Booklet - Spread?

Hey,
Is there is a way to have a four page booklet on Acrobat.com
where the middle spread appears the same size as pages 1 and 4 by
the "show pages side by side" layout is selected? Currently
this
is what we have - but I'd love pages 2 and 3 to appear
side-by-side and in proportion just as they would in print and the
regular offline acrobat reader.
Am using Acrobat 9 Pro to upload files, so don't know if this
can be controlled there or at acrobat.com?
Cheers.

Not the most obvious of workflows, but it does the job!
Not sure waht you took away from that other thread...
On Windows using Print Booklet to make a PDF is pretty straight forward -- you just select the AdobePDF virtual printer installed with Acrobat Pro. Of you don't have the virtual printer, printing to file won't help much becasue you also won't have Distiller (the virtual printer is just a one-step shortcut to doing a print-to-file-then-distill workflow).
The manual methos of shuffling works great for 4 pages. For more than that youj might want to look at a script. My favorite is from Dave Saunders and is quite old, so you might need to run it in a "Version 4.0 Scripts" (without the quotes) subfolder of your scripts panel folder. You'll find that one at http://pdsassoc.com/downloads/Buildbooklet.zip
The downside to the above script is it cannot handle objects that cross the spine, nor does it do creep, so Dave wrote another script that places pages into a new doc in single-page imposed spreads (still no creep, though). This one is also old (written for CS3) and may need to be in a Version 5.0 Scripts subfolder: Dave's CS3 Booklet Script

Creating single page pdfs from a brochure designed in spreads format

Hi there,
So I've been asked to take a brochure that is in spreads, and save each panel as a single page pdf. So basically, in document setup, the page size is 17.75 x 8.5). There are four panels, each panel is roughly 4.3708 x 8.5. The problem is, each panel was not created as a single page in indesign...instead, it's set up as a 17.75 x 8.5 document and the panels are created within that document size.
I guess I wanted to find out if there is an efficient way of creating these single panel pdfs from what I've been given.
Anybody know?

It's either copy/paste into a properly laid out facing pages document (the best choice if it will need editing in the future), or place the pages, each one twice, into a facing pages pages doc and crop the wrong half off each page. In either case, you'll need to rearrange the pages into readers' spreads.

Is it possible to print a spread as single pages?

The file was created in InDesign CS5 and has to be saved as a .pdf. I want to view all of the spreads in the .pdf, but actually print them as single pages.

If the pages are exported to PDF as spreads, that's how they are going to print. You can export as single pages and set the initial view in Acrobat Pro so the file opens as spreads, with a single cover page if needed, but it won't look exactly the same as a true spread and it won't stop a user from changing the view.
Personally, I hate PDFs exported as spreads because they're really hard to navigate (same for two-column text meant to be read on screen).

From single page to double page spreads when rotating

We've seen some publications that display as a single page when the iPad is held in portrait mode but switch to double page spreads when the iPad is rotated to landscape mode.
We've searched this forum - which has been very helpful so far - but can't seem to find how to enable this. Is it something fairly simple we've missed or has it been custom coded for the publications that use it? They seem to be pdf based as far as we can tell, or at least they are 'pinch & zoom'able and don't have any other interactivity, so they're quite basic. Nonetheless it is quite a nice way to display/read the publications.
We're quite new to the whole Adobe DPS system but are keen to get up to speed with it. We see a lot of potential with these tools.
Thanks

Very simple... create 1 folio for each spread with 1 page in landscape orientation and 2 pages in portrait - and only allow horizontal navigation (we use DPS + WoodWing so terms might differ at bit). Adobe made a script for converting PDF to Folio - spread by spread. Use the script for creating the needed layouts.
We have at least 15 apps working like that.

Help convert spread pages to single pages when converting Indesign to PDF for printer

I have an Indesign booklet of 28 pages which I need to convert to pdf as single pages so I need to turn off the spread pages/facing pages option so I can convert to pdf to get it printed. I know how to turn the spread/facing pages off but when I do this it affects the master page and all the pages become left hand pages and the headers/page nos are in the wrong place. I have looked at numerous websites/blogs and everyone seems to have the same problem. Can anyone help me please as this is really urgent now?

Actually, you DON'T want to undo the facing pages. Just export using the settings recommended by the printer and you'll get one PDF with individual pages, not spreads, as long as the Spreads box is not checked.

Single Page/Spreads

Hi all,
I've designed a publication in InDesign and exported it into Acrobat. My client wants to be able to view the document with the first two pages viewed singly (a cover and then a title page) and the rest of the document viewed in spreads- but he wants it all to be printed in single-page. Can this be done?
Thanks!

Hi Rogowskik,
Acrobat provides initial view customization which applies to all the pages when the pdf is opened. So, there is no such option available in Acrobat.

Is it possible to join two single pages in a pdf into one double page spread?

Is it possible to take two single pages from separate pdf documents and combine them as one double page spread?
If it is possible could someone describe how it is done please?

The InDesign method Steve mentions is the best option. You can also place it in Illustrator as an import but you'll need to have the same fonts as the PDF file. This option will allow you to edit the files, pending what objects are editable. It will have a few quirks, and the text lines might be separate objects.
I'd go InDesign, but just in case you don't have ID, you can use Illustrator, but be prepared for a little work.

Spreads and single pages export to pdf

Hi
I have a document that is laid out as spreads 2 a4's next to each other. ie the back page is shown as the first with the front page as page 2.
I need to export for both single page pdf electronic copy (ie front cover currently page 2 as page 1 of the pdf.)
I also need to export the file as a printable spread. Back page as page 1 of pdf.
This is all doable at the moment except when i export the single page electronic pdf (uncheck spread in the export options) it gives me the last page as the first of the pdf. Is there a way i can reorder these to make what is currently page 1 as the last.
hope this makes sense.
thanks Job

When you say "printable spreads" I take it you don't mean imposed into the correct order for binding, but just reader's spreads printed onto a single sheet for proofing or something similar.
Some additional details about how you use these spreads would be useful.

The ! shows up because the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window has lost the connection to the file it represents. There are two main reasons why this occurs: database coruption and/or User Activity in the iPhoto Library Folder - in this case your Party Library.
1. Hold down the abbpe and option keys and launch iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild the database.
2. Have you renamed, altered or moved anything in the Party Library Folder?
As for the mulitple versions of photos: Your Party Library (or any Library) is arranged as follows:
In this folder there are various files, which are the Library itself and some ancillary files. Then you have three folders
Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
(ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
This allows the Photos -> Revert to Original command - very useful if you don't like the changes you've made.
(iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
So each version of the Image has a distinct role to play. To distinguish them in a Spotlight search, use file size - the tiny ones are your thumbnails etc.
Your Camera names the files. Some Cameras have a setting which allows them to sequentially number across cards. You can also use titling in the iPhoto Window to distinguish them (Photos -> Batch Change) and some people copy the pics onto their machines first, rename them with a batch renamer and then import them into iPhoto.
The book is simply a virtual album of photos and is part of the library6.iPhoto file.
As to your plan of moving and patching things up... It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss. SO try rebuild the database first.
Regards
TD
