Specifying page format with a DocPrintJob

I want to print myPageable using legal paper. I tried adding the attributes to the simpledoc, but it still prints out in normal, letter size.
How can I change my page format using the docPrintJob?
PrintRequestAttributeSet set = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
set.add(MediaSizeName.ISO_A3);
DocAttributeSet set2 = new HashDocAttributeSet();
set2.add(MediaSizeName.ISO_A3);
SimpleDoc doc = new SimpleDoc(myPageable, DocFlavor.SERVICE_FORMATTED.PAGEABLE, set2);
DocPrintJob m_job = ...
m_job.print(doc, set);

I wouldnt try to use that method If I were you.
Try using PrinterJob.print(PrintRequestAttributeSet)
Of course this doesnt work on linux (Which seems to have 0 ability to select different printer attributes)
Cross platform compatable BS !

My browser displays text only with very little page formating for all pages. How do I enable page formating with images etc.?

I have a multi-user windows based machine where both users have the same browser, search engine, plugins, applications, etc. I use this machine primarily as an entertainment system (ie. TV client/server using a TV Tuner card, Music & Video Player, etc.). Most of my time on this machine is maintaining security and drivers. However, my wife uses it primarily as a social media communication device. My user account on this machine displays all content correctly. Where as she has crashed both Facebook games while playing as well as her mail (GMail). After one of these crashes it "appears" she is displaying HTML text with formatting but without images. I've tried to fix this without success. We have another machine that seems fine so it's not her login on our network, just the one machine. Please help!!!

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
*Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and cookies only from websites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
*Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Printing Problem in New Page Format

Hi Everybody,
              I have an issue lying long time in my Company.
        Abap person asked me to create a new page format with new page sizing and all. i created it. this is actually for Voucher printing which does not require A4 size. so that i specified specific paper size in that.
     Voucher is Printing in the Specified Size, ok. But, after printing it, the printer automatically Rolls till the end of the paper.(Probably this would have taken A4 by Default)
     the issue is, we need to stop this rolling and we need to make this printing as specified.since it is continuous printing, every time we cant manually rotate the page.(Printer Epson Dot Matrix)
Is this either can be sorted out by ABAP or Basis Person.
   What can be done from Our Basis Side?
Thanks,
Siva

Hi,
How you solved this problem?

Thanks in advance

New Page Format implentation in Sap Scripts and Reports

Hi,
   I want to print Report details and also some of the SAP Script details on the paper size of 350MM width and 310MM Height in the PORTRAIT format.
   So i created new page format with these dimensions.
   How i can use this for reports. So i can set these parameters while taking output from Report.
   Pls specify if any configuration required for this.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Pavan.

In SAPscript, you set the Page Format for the document in the "Page Format" field of the "Basic Settings" page of the documents "Header" information. The popup list of this field will show all available formats in your system, so this is a ggod way to make sure your new format is set up properly.
For reports, page format is set either with the LINE-SIZE addition to the REPORT and NEW-PAGE commands, or through the PARAMETERS addition to the NEW-PAGE command. When you use LINE-SIZE the print system picks the format for you, based on the available formats in the systems.
I don't remember if there is an activation step for Page Formats, or if saving is all you have to do.

Page format for SAP-Script not working in 4.6C

Hi all,
I have a problem regarding check printing.
I am using SAP version 4.6C
The size of paper for check printing is
width = 231 mm
Height = 304 mm
So for this I have created a new page format with these details in SPAD.
Then I assigned this Page format to spool format and assigned that spool format to SAPWIN driver. I have assigned this page format to the SCRIPT that is used for check printing .
But when I am taking the print out for the check with new page format, the printer dont print till the end of page, it prints till the total amount on check and then stops there. So this creates an alignment problem when taking printout for multiple checks.
Please give some solution for this.
Regards,
Bharat.

I guess you are printing on dot matrix printer. If yes, try to do some physical printer settings for the dot matrix printer by following the printer manual. I guess you have to change the page size.. or set default printer settings... it may help you to solve your problem...
if not goto your device types tab in SPAD and select device types.. select your device from the list (for ex, SAPWIN) click format and goto the format that you have inserted for this device types.. double click on your format, you will see printer Indialization.. try to write code like this
set page length to 8.5 inch (=52 lines at 6 LPI)
\e\0x43\0x44
Note the above hexa decimal value can be obtained by going through the printer manual.
Close the thread once your question is answered.

Second o/p been printed from first page due to page format

Dear All,
I have created a new page format with width 210 mm and height 290 mm and included it a smartform for invoice printing that I have created.The problem is that when i take a printout of the invoice program it prints the first page perfectly,but when I take printout of the next invoice,it starts printing from the same page itself ,hence the second invoice is printed on the first and the second page .Other page formats are been printed correctly.The problem is only with the this page format that i have created.Even if i Change the width and height of the page format from SPAD ,the output remains the same.Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Subhabrata Choudhury.

Hi,
I am not sure which device type you are using, but it is possible you need to add some commands in the sections below from SPAD:
SPAD -> Full Admin -> Device Types -> <Device Type> -> Formats -> <Format> -> End of page
E.g. In a windows device type like SAPWIN, the command below is needed:
formfeed
\f
This ensures that there is a formfeed after each page. You can check the standard page formats such as DINA4 to see which commands are required for your device type. Also for some device types, commands are needed in the printer intialization section for your custom page format to tell the printer the length of the page.
SPAD -> Full Admin -> Device Types -> <Device Type> -> Formats -> <Format> -> Printer Initialization
Again you can check the standard page formats like DINA4 or LETTER as a reference.

Aidan

Landscape and Portrait Page Format Settings for Printing

Hi Experts,
The client requirement is to print the Smart form in 8.5 * 11 (inches) in (Portrait) mode.
In my page settings i have kept the Page Format = 'LETTER' .
However when the page is printed , the formatting comes out to be A4(Landscape mode).
Please let me know what i am missing.
Thanks

Hi Abhishek,
I can suggest couple of options here.
Check the settings by clicking on the Page you have created. Under O/P options we need to ensure its A4 potrait.
Secondly you can create a custom Page Format with Potrait & Lanscape both options and depending on printer settings it will dynamically decide if we need to print Landscape of Portrairt
Also check the Default printer Settings.

Help with page formatting in PDF

Hope that someone can help me with a problem I have.
I have just purchased Acrobat 9 Pro Extended Version 9.0.0, and am a very new user of Acrobat.
The problem I have is converting a Word 2002 and SP3 documents (multi pages to PDF.
The Word document is formatted with the correct margins in that all the text and Header are on the correct pages, but when converted to PDF a small part of the upper text on the next page moves up onto the previous page. Resetting the top ande bottom margins helps, but this should not be necessary.
Anyone have any ideas to correct this problem.

You version of WORD defaults to using printer metrics. There are 2 ways to resolve the issue. 1. go to print and select the Adobe PDF printer, back out and fist the document issues in WORD. 2. Deep in the options of WORD, there is a selection for using printer metrics (I assume your version also has this selection). Uncheck that and the problem should go away. You could also change your default printer to the Adobe PDF printer.
WORD 2007 was changed to have the default set to NOT use printer metrics. All previous versions used the metrics. Thus when you change the printer, WORD reflows the document. The result may be errors in bookmarks, page numbers, and related issues.

Is there a format for a file that I can use for attaching a one page document with photos embedded that will open in everyone's email automatically? I've tried PDF and Word, but worked only in Mail. Lost formatting when just copied and pasted in email.

Is there a format for a file that I can use for attaching a one page document with photos embedded that will open in everyone's email automatically? I've tried PDF and Word, but PDF worked only in Mail. Word worked in nothing. I also tried copying and pasting the document but lost all formatting when just copied and pasted in email. Is there a way to do this?

Are you sure PDF won't work? It should as what you're trying to do is pretty much what it is designed for (PDF - Portable Document Format). On a Mac anywone who receives the file should be able to see it in all its page layout glory by using the app Preview or Adobe Reader. Same on a PC, the file should be viewable as a PDF file using Adobe Reader and probably some other viewer (don't use PCs so not sure what other apps).
What application are you creating the file in and are you sure you're exporting it correctly in PDF format, fonts and images embedded?

Hi Michele,
Select the paragraphs where you want to change the spacing.

You can change 1.0 - Single to something else, or type a number in Before or After.

How to digitize a physical book (scanned pfd file) to a kindle format with Indesign? pages are 8x11.

How to digitize a physical book (scanned pfd file) to a kindle format with Indesign? pages are 8x11.
I have all scanned pages, but the kindle format offered on the Indesign options is bigger. What should I do? Do I start a book from scratch with the scanned pictures or do I leave the pages with the white space on them with the kindle option of Indesign.

Hi barbaraegarza,
For your situation, you could try using alternatives like PDF4Kindle, Calibre, or Papercrop. But based on what I've read and my quick experiment, depending on the complexity of your PDF, it may be more effort than it's worth to try to convert a PDF into a legible Kindle, ePub, or any other e-reader file.
I did a quick test on Calibre with a 16-page PDF that contained multiple columns and images. The results were illegible! It ran the lines from each column together, making the text difficult to comprehend. Calibre explains why PDFs are difficult to convert -- Ebook Conversion — calibre User Manual. I have not tried the other two applications that I suggested above, but I would assume that the results would be very similar.
I don't know what kind of results you got when you converted it in InDesign, but if your first test turned out fine and it was just the size of the file that you are concerned about, you could use Acrobat to reduce your PDF's file size and convert it to the Kindle format in InDesign again.
Hope this helps. Good luck!

Smart Form Error Page format 2 with orientation 1 unknown

I have created smart form with Page Format DINA4 (297x210). While executing the smart form i am getting error as "Page format 2 with orientation 1 unknown".

Same Attributes on each page only Next Page is in increment order.

Conflict with the output device and the page format.

Hi Experts,
I have two output device, one as "deskjet_printer" and one as "EPSON". Page format is "ZJV". Now, when I am taking a print preview with "deskjet _printer" output device, it is working fine, but when I am taking it with "EPSON", it gives me an error message as "Table TEMPLATE1 does not fit into window". We need to take a printuot with EPSON output device. I think we need to attach sometthing with it and I am missing something somewhere.
How to achieve this issue. Please help me in this. Appreciate your inputs on this.
Thanks in advance.

Increase the size of window or reduce the width or height og Template1 in smartform.

This is over 3 years old. It would be smart to upgrade to the most recent version. Get it here: [http://javaserverfaces.dev.java.net].
I think the problem of navigation does not have a relationship with the current jsf API version I used.

Verify using the JSF manual/tutorial if the navigation case is correct.In HelloWorld.jsp, I have used the <h:mesage/> and when I click the GoodBye button, the HelloWorld is refreshed only, there are not any error messages or validation messages displaied on the HelloWorld.jsp page.
