Start as closed book (swf export related issue) ?

How do I make it seem like a book is starting from its closed form? Currently the starting page is to the right of the screen with empty space on the left. I want it to get an effect like its closed and then when I start flipping the pages, the whole screen area needs to get used.
Any pointers will be welcome, thanks in advance.

You said you want your PDFs... are you making PDF or SWF? You can set your PDFs to open with single coverpage in the spread by changin initial view from Acrobats File>Preferences....
If you are making SWF, simply draw a gray rectangle to left side of your coverpage. Make it touch to coverpage, small amount, like 0,1" is enough. Then export your swf and you will have your cover´s left side gray...
Even better option IMHO is re-create that html-page with for instance free SWF-object tool. I have wrote a post about that somewhere here, I add a link if I find that old thread.

SWF Export, no font showing in Acrobat and zoom border problem (Acrobat & Reader) - Indesign CS6

Hi Everyone,
If anyone could help me on this that would be great, I've spent hours on the forums and manuals to no avail.
I'm making an interactive PDF brochure in Indesign for one of our new products and I'm having issues (actual or perceived??!!) with the SWF export and PDF creation. I'm placing animations and video in the INDD, exporting it as an SWF (with the text option as Flash Classic Text) and then opening the SWF (not importing to a word doc or anything, just opening the SWF) with Acrobat using the advanced options to import the video resources and to enable the content when the page is opened. I then save the file as a PDF. In the PDF everything works as it should, the animations, the buttons, the video plays and so on. Great.. hmm not quite.
The trouble I am having is that all the content of the SWF when viewed in Acrobat seems to be getting rasterised/flattened - is this correct? After the SWF is opened, Acrobat indicates no fonts in the fonts tab in the document properties so when the SWF is zoomed in Acrobat, or the saved PDF in Reader, the font gets pixelated and the document is not searchable/text can not be highlighted. The images are not selectable either - it is as if the entire page has been flattened to one image. Is there a way to stop this so that the SWF opened with Acrobat retains the font and individual images like a normal PDF? Do I have to open the SWF in Flash first to set some parameters or something? Is there something I am doing wrong when exprting the SWF from Indesign? I think I have tried about every possible export combination. When I open the .HMTL (exported at the same time as the SWF from Indesign) in a browser, the same happens. All the animations work but the text appears to be rasterised/flattened/not searchable. Sorry if I'm not using the correct terminology.
I have tried importing the SWF back into another new INDD and exporting that as an interactive PDF but then the video does not work. I suppose I could try exporting all the individual animations as SWFs, importing them all and trying to get them to work with the video but I can see that will take quite some time and does not seem to be a guaranteed solution from what I have read on the forums - video playback being the issue.
Another problem is that when the SWF, or saved PDF, is zoomed in Acrobat/Reader between approx 150% and 210% a thick white border appears in the document and the content is squashed into the middle creating a slightly pixelated and narrow page. When I zoom out from the page I get a small white line on the right hand border at around 70% zoom. Please see images. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and what I can do to fix it?
On another, sort of related topic, my timing panel went blank yesterday and was not showing any animations in documents that it had been used to order and synch animations on page load as well as new documents. The panel was blank. I updated to V8.0.1 and the panel sprang back into life - hope that helps anyone else finding the same problem.
I am not very familiar with Indesign/Acrobat/Flash so I guess all the above could be what I'm doing or I could be asking really dumb questions - apologies from a newbie.
Best,
Emily

Hi All,
I have now pretty much solved all the issues by creating the SWF in Flash rather than Indesign. I would advise anyone looking to create an interative PDF with animation and interactivity to go with Flash from the start. While Flash is a little more involved to create the same effects as Indesign, the extra time taken will ensure a more controllable and better looking PDF in terms of text quality, scalability and so on. Plus you will not spend days trying to get video to work along side imported SWF etc in Indesign. One of the best controls in Flash is being able to set the stage.scaleMode for the document so the PDF still looks crisp when zooming, no white borders etc. So, create the .fla, export to .SWF, open the .SWF with Acrobat, modify the advanced settings to enable start on page load and save as a PDF. If you don't know Flash, I didn't a couple of days ago, watch a couple of tutorials on Youtube.. buttons, tweens, embedding video and you'll be ready. Don't be put off by ActionScript, there are really handy Code Snippets in CS6 that do all the heavy lifting for you.
Sorry Indesign!
Best,
Em

when I use voice over to read an epub in my Ibooks app, which is in Dutch, sometimes he start reading a book with an English Female voice and some books he reads with the Dutch male voice (which is good). All my epubs are Dutch books so the English voice sound terrible trying to pronounce Dutch. Can i fix this problem? Thanks, Tom

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

Many Sporadic Preview Related Issues

Not sure if this is where to post/report Lightroom 5 issues or not, but here are preview-related issues I am experiencing...
Preview panel "preview" freezes indefinitely.
App very slow to load while creating new previews. (previews take forever to create and update)
Wrong previews showing for wrong images when swapping between folders, etc. (ie: all photos, last import, custom collections)
This one is a little different...
Ratings lost when switching between folders, etc. (ie: all photos, last import, custom collections)
This was a clean install that ran beautifully at first. Started noticing this more and more after using the spot tool. (my last step in processing a job)
I use separate catalogs per job. Some as small as a few dozen images. (family stuff) Others, as large as 500-600. (engagement and wedding clients)
Hope you are working on this. It's making work a struggle. I'm not just a "consumer". ;-)

Automatic page transition in swf-Export

Hello,
I have a brochure for a swf-export. I want the pages to turn automatically after a few seconds.
Haven't found such option yet. Hope you can help me.
Regards,
Paul

There´s no such feature in InDesign....
If you want to make that happen, you need to do some actionscript coding.
Is this what you want (it takes few seconds to start):
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17227987/autopageturn/index.html
If it is, you can download those files as zip-pacakge:
http://www.edocker.com/support/edocker-freebies/
1) Extract ZIP,
2) replace SWFfromID.swf, you may actually export SWF from InDesign directly to that same folder, use that name and overwrite existing file.
3) Then open index.html to your browser.
Pageturning delay is 5 seconds.
If you need more control over your SWF, you may want to check http://www.edocker.com. With it you can add features like zooming, printing etc to your SWF files.....

Windows Live Mail could not be started. Closing Windows Live Mail. Your calendar contains corrupt data that is forcing Windows Live Mail to close. (0x8E5E0247

Hi
Can you please HELP??
I recently had to change my hard drive for my laptop (Sony Vaio). The IT guy replaced my HDD and ghost all my information
from old to new drive. Everything works perfect except for Windows Live Mail.
When I open WLM I get this error:
“Windows Live Mail could not be started. Closing Windows Live Mail. Your calendar contains corrupt data that is forcing
Windows Live Mail to close. (0x8E5E0247)”
I have since done the following:
PROBLEM SOLUTION 1:
1. Close Windows Live Mail and any other Windows Live programs.
2. Click Start (then Run for
Windows XP), paste the following path below and press Enter:
%Localappdata%\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail\Calendars
3. Rename the folder of the account you use to sign in to Windows Live Mail to
sync your calendar (ex. rename [email protected] to [email protected]).
4. Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.
5. Launch Windows Live Mail again.
THIS DID NOT WORK SO I DID THE FOLLOWING:
PROBLEM SOLUTION 2:
I removed WLM (uninstall) and reinstalled and still nothing.
PROBLEM SOLUTION 3:
I also renamed the WLM folder and reinstalled WLM, then deleted the new WLM folder and still nothing.
PROBLEM SOLUTION 4:
I also tried to import my emails from WLM to Microsoft Outlook but I only have a copy of my mails from the directory.
I do not have an EXPORT copy saved anywhere. Is there any way I can export the WLM to Microsoft outlook?
PLEASE HELP I AM AT WITS END.

I have had many problems with permissions on Windows Vista, 7,8 & 81.1. It is usually after an update or installation, especially one that requires a reboot to finish (some AVG, Windows Live, Windows Updates, etc). Once File(s), Folder(s)
and Registry Key(s) permissions are screwed up, it can take days to work them out if ever.
After having spent several hours on a clients PC and online forums with this problem. I transferred her user profile with a free program called
Transwiz (run as Administrator) to a zip file on the HDD. I renamed her user in manage User Accounts to "Username old". I then ran Transwiz again to restore the profile but telling it to create a new user using the original Username.
After it completed restoring the profile, I logged out of "Username old" and logged in to Username and all wass well, I only needed to supply the email password which is not transferred. When you move profile data, all the old permissions
have to be removed and <st1:personname w:st="on">new</st1:personname> permissions added so the data and files belong to the <st1:personname w:st="on">new</st1:personname> user. This cleared up all the permission
problems.

Animations to SWF Export, place back, make PDF: Acrobat XI?

I read that Flash runtime is not supported anymore in Acrobat XI. What does that mean for clients viewing PDF files that have placed SWF files and viewing them on computers that have no Flash player/plug-in installed? I have clients that export InDesign animations to SWF and place them back before making a PDF...

Please help me, how can i quit receiving thesemeseages from This In design forum?

Book Module Export To JPEG Does Not Apply Sharpening

I'm running LR4.1 on Windows 7 64 bit with 5D MK ii raw images and just discovered the Book module 'Export Book to JPEG' produces files that do not have output sharpening applied.
Book = JPEG
Size = Standard Landscape
Cover = Hardcover Image Wrap
JPEG Quality = 90
File Resolution = 300 ppi
Sharpening = (Every setting produces the same results)
Media Type = (Every setting produces the same results)
When selecting 'Book = PDF' the sharpening is very obvious and is applied as expected based on the Sharpening setting:
Glossy Low = least sharpening
Matte High = most sharpening
Maybe I'm doing something wrong since I can't find a single post in the LR forums where this has been raised, but maybe not!
Can anyone help out or verify?

Are we looking at printed or screen proofs here?
Not that I have an answer for you but sharpening might not be visible on screen if that is what you are comparing. Sharpening for print should differ for print processes from sharpening for screen. The 'print' sharpening, presumably for inkjet although it should be for offset, will be related to final image size, so viewing on screen at a potentially different size and resolution might be obscuring what would occur in a printing process.
I can't verify since I am still using LR3.6.

How to take care of Performance related issue in DRM?

How we can optimize or take care of performance related issues when we have huge data in DRM application? especially when comes to Imports and Exports.
Thanks
-Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,
Below some suggestion from my side.
1-Try to keep Current version open at the time of export and automator run.
2-At extreme use derived property , else manage with somehow if you can
3-If you are creating any derived property make sure you are restricting to related hier
4-In case you are creating derived property check performance to take big hier with derived property node name and description ,if performance not seems to you satisfactory go with some other logic.
5-Don’t use much looking property like Nodeinhier, hiernodepropvalue etc , if need then only use these
6-Tack care of validation if you can do better with verification then don’t put validation in that case
7-I do see some problem while loading data from DRM to DB try to avoid and use some workaround if possible ( like Sql loader)
Not sure how much useful will be for you these points above.
Thanks!

6230i Contact search problem(Sim related issue?)

Hello
I have purchased a Nokia mobile phone model number 6230i.I have a query to clarify. While I am searching a contact in my phone book I could not find out the exact contact name.
for example:
I have a contact 'Johny' in my sim. While I am searching for this cotact by typing 'JO' the phone shows 'no match'. I feel the problem is with the case sensitivity of the name. ie. If the name is saved as 'JOHNY' I could simply locate the name by typing 'JO' in the edit box. But the same model phone with my friend doesn't has this problem and it works
fine.
I heard it is a sim card related issue. If so can I solve this problem by a software update?
Dinraj Nair.

Hi,
If this is a problem with your sim card, then I dont think it can be fixed by a software upgrade (as there is nothing to upgrade on a Simcard apart from hardware). My 6230i doesnt have this problem.
You can get cheap simcards now, and your operator should be able to transfer your number to the new card.

How to export related items

Hi All,
I couldn't find any information about exporting related item list, is it possible to export related items?
For example, how can i export Opportunity Product Revunues of an Opportunity record?

Hi,
One option to to create an Analytics Report on the Opportunity Product Revenues subject Area and then export from there.
This is when you want the Related Item together with the header.
Hope this helps

Can we set up a forum for Security related issues?

I know many of us think security is a Windows related issue, but from time to time there are security issues that may come up. I had a question so I looked and couldn't find a forum, so I posted in one of the OS X 10.6 sub forums.
Thanks!

I am a co-founder of Calendar of Updates http://www.calendarofupdates.com/updates/index.php?act=idx This is a site that is primarily a Windows based security forum (I switched about 4-5 years ago). Over the years, I've tried to grow the Mac side of our forum, but, as you may know, there is little or no interest in security within the Mac community. For many, the feel security is a Windows issue.
It's a free site, so don't think I have a vested interest in growing the membership, I'm not an owner, either.
I just created an *Apple OS X Security Issues* forum http://www.calendarofupdates.com/updates/index.php?showforum=209
Right now it's an empty forum since it was created 10 minutes ago. Please feel free to join the forum and share security related issues and questions.
I am not aware of any other forums that deal with OS X security issues
exclusively, so this forum could be a good place to bookmark and visit from time to time.

To everyone with IOS6 Sound related issues & Others

If you are facing a problem of not having any system sounds, notification sounds, no calls or other software sound related issues I'd suggest you read below it's a stupidly simple fix and it should solve most software issues after an immediate iOS6 update:
After updating unplug the phone from your computer and leave the phone alone for 5-10 minutes, if you still have problems: reboot, wait a few minutes and all sound related problems should be fixed.
When I updated to iOS 6 I had lost my system sounds, so I unplugged from the computer, rebooted the phone and still no go. I decided to just let the system "settle in" for a bit, let it lock and when I unlocked after 5-10 minutes sounds were back and everythings up and running again.

Well, to break it down. After my sounds finally came back (2nd time losing them) last night I decided to restore the phone in itunes. I did it twice. First time I backed up my data. Second time I restored it as a factory iPhone. Both times guess what NO SOUNDS! I also realized that last night I had lost my sounds after charging my phone and unplugging it from the data cord. I still have ringtones (when someone calls), but text messages, emails, and any other alert tones do not work. I cannot turn the volume up or down with the side buttons and also music does not play. It doesn't even have a slide bar at the bottom.
I am on the phone with apple care now. They seem to not be aware of the problem at all.
While I was on the phone with them my sounds ended up coming back, imagine that. Hopefully every time I charge my phone I am not going to have this issue.
