"Type Options" in "Document Setup" scriptable?

I would like to create a script (have not done one before) that changes the values of the superscript and subscript size/position in "Document Setup". After looking around, I did not see anything even related to this and only a comment on one site that it probably could not be done. So it this a lost cause? I have many files I would like to convert the values for.
Thanks.

I am on windows and tried SendKeys. I am pretty close, but the CNTRL and ALT modifiers don't seem to work. It works in notepad and Word, but Illustrator does not seem accept the modifier. For example, I try to just do a select all here (via WshShell.SendKeys "^a") but it just goes to the direct select tool (keyboard shortcut "a") instead.
I just created and executed a test.wsf file:
   <job id="vbs">
      <script language="VBScript">
        ' Open Illustrator
        Set WshShell = CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )
        WshShell.Run "Illustrator"
               For testing purposes, Word does the select all correctly
                'WshShell.Run "WinWord"
        ' Give two seconds to load/observe
        WScript.Sleep 2000
        'Activate Select Tool
        WshShell.SendKeys "V"
        'Activate Pen Tool
        WScript.Sleep 2000
        WshShell.SendKeys "P"
        'Select All
        WScript.Sleep 2000
        WshShell.SendKeys "^a"
      </script>
   </job>

Photosmart C5580: PDF File type option has disappeared from Scan Shortcut Settings under Documents

For 6 years I have used PDF as the file type for scanning documents. Yesterday it switched to TIFF. This creates files of ~8.5 MB per scanned page.
The PDF option does no longer show in the dropdown menu. Remaining options are:
Bitmap, TIFF, TIFF Compressed, JPEG, GIF, PNG, PCX and FlashPix.
How do I get PDF back on the list.
I run Vista Home Premium

Hi @vliegendeboer ,
I see that you are having issues with the PDF option missing from the scanning software. I would like to help.
In the HP Solution Center Software, select the option to change settings, select Save to File Save Options, on the File Type, try and select PDF and press OK. I don't have the exact Version 12 software you are using to go by, but the steps should be similiar.
If you are still not able to select PDF ,download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it.Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
If there was any updates recently done on the computer, you can restore your computer back to before everything was working properly. How To Use System Restore in Windows Vista.
If you are still having issues, the software might have become corrupted. Uninstall and reinstall the printer software.

PM Scripts: how to get into "Document setup" - "Compose to printer"option using PageMaker scripts?

Hi
I wonder if there is any way to set appropriate printer in "Document setup" -> "Compose to printer" option using PageMaker scripts.
Going through the PageMaker Script Guide I couldn't find such functionality.
I will appreciate your help

This is what you need: http://www.amazon.com/Pagemaker-Scripting-Guide-Desktop-Automation/dp/tech-data/1568303181
If the script is not in that book, then it doesn't exist.
There used to be PDF version, but I can't find it.

Different movement types in MM documents in SSR

Hello,
How can I use different movement types in logistic documents for meter readings?
I set up additional meter event for own consumption and I need to get logistic document with other movement type (as standard we running creating logistic document types an 251/252 movement types for fuel sales).
To realize at least those two types of sales wehave only two possibilities in the system:
1. Setup separate processing profile for location for purpose of own consumption.
The stop over point is only one processing profile can be assigned to the location at once.
2. Setup a new process with new movement type.
The stop over point - restriction in the customizing - only one main process can be used for posting based on meter readings (error message OQ_C601 "More than one entry selected as main MM process for location indicator 01").
How can I solve this issue?
Thanks and KR,
Sergey

How do I center the header in document setup?

I write books and want the title of my book to appear automatically on each page and centered. When I go to Document Setup I don't find an option for centering. I shouldn't have to force with spaces my book title to the center. Where are the setup features with font style, size, center, left, right, etc?

Ok. I figured it out. The problem had to do with the fact that I started the book using an older version of Pages on my Mac Pro and sent it to myself then added it to my iPad. Once there I update, edit, add-to the story then iDisk the update so I have the most current version.
To solve the problem I went into the iPad and called up the story in Pages, copied it into memory then created a new blank document. There I went to the Page Settings and the header/footer were quite visible, including the three cells. In the header I added the title of the book. In the footer I added the Page 1 of X, hit Done and returned to the blank page. I then pasted in the entire book.
Now all are fine. The title header is centered and I have very nice page numbers.
Thanks for the tip!

Intercompany billing document setup

Hi,
      I would like to enquire on intercompany billing document setup.
      We have customized billing type ZIV for intercompany invoice, and ZIG for intercompany credit memo.
       Is is possible to set up the cancellation for each billing type as
          - ZIG for ZIV and
          - ZIV for ZIG
min

Hello MIN,
For practice & understanding or test purpose, this can be ok.
But, in actual or real time scenario, I don't think it hold good.
See, you said ZIG is a Credit Memo for Inter-company right?
How you are going to use it for cancellation?
As I know, a Credit Note or Credit Memo is a document used to adjust or rectify errors made in a sales invoice which has already been processed and sent to a customer. If you have already sent an invoice to a customer but now need to provide a credit for that invoice, you would send them a Credit Note or Credit Memo. You can think of a credit note as a "negative invoice."
But not CANCELLATION INVOICE.
Logically, if you see, there will be a number range issue. So, just visualise, when you have to book an actual credit note, then what you are going to do? And how is you end user and auditor is going to recognize the credit memo?
For your your purpose of having a different cancellation doc for inter-company sales invoice and credit memo, you can create a Z Cancellation Billing Doc, say, ZIC and assign it to ZIV & ZIG billing Doc.
Hope it assist you.
Thanks & Regards
JP

Document setup bleed lines absent

I'm setting up the bleed on a set of InDesign CS5.5 documents. When I go to File: Document Setup: More Options, and set the bleed to .125 in, I don't see the little red bleed guide line outside my document outline. I've gone to InDesign: Preferences: Guides and Pasteboard, where I found there is an entry for the bleed guide. I can make guides just fine, I just can't get the bleed guide to show up on my pasteboard anymore.
All clues welcome.
Thanks.
--jody.

The show/hide guides commands have moved around a bit from versiontoe version, I think, but they shoud still be someplace in the View Menu whatever version you might have. They will not be visible, however, in Preview mode (the pasteboard will also disappear).

I can't find document setup under file in CS5. Help!

I've looked everywhere...even in the Keyboard Shortcuts and menus, and it is not hidden. It is nowhere to be found. Help!

I dont know what specific settings you are looking for under the "old document setup", but here is a few options with the NEW look of CS5/CS6:
To create a new document completely:
File >New
or:
under Image> Image size:
you can alter the size of the image you opened in Photoshop, as well as the document size.
or:
under image>canvas size, you can expand the canvas to a new size.
I hope this is what you were looking for, if not just reply here to this post about a specific setting you seem to be missing.

ID CS6: Character pallet and all type options appear frozen

Windows 7. Yes, I selected the text. My CS5.5 document would freeze the select tool, etc so I cleared the presets and the cache. The 5.5 doc had a font not recognized by CS 6. To get around this, I decided to recreate the doc with the Arial font in CS6. Creating a totally new doc, I am unable to change the typeface, point size, etc using the type bar or the character pallet. I can make changes using the "Type" option pulldown. All of this works fine in AI & PS, just not ID. Ideas?

Could be this: InDesign tools and panels don't respond to mouse clicks (Windows 7/Vista)

Managed Default versus Managed Custom Folder, and Default Folder Type Options

I am looking to create some new managed folders needed for company retention policy.
It seems pretty forward to create the folder:
New-ManagedFolder -Name "[Name Here]" -DefaultFolderType Inbox -Comment "[comments here]" -MustDisplayComment $true
However I have noticed there seems to be two types of folders: Managed Custom and Managed Default. What exactly is the difference.
Also what different default folder type options are there, and what is the different between them?

I actually am using retention tags and retention policies for the existing folders (inbox, deleted, junk/spam, conversation history). Which takes care of most of our actual messages.
However most of the space in a users mail box is take by docs scanned to their emails. These docs are almost instantly moved to file servers, and other databases but sit in the mailboxes for ever. So I was hoping to create a default folder and deploy rules
so that all the scanned items are automatically moved to that folder where they can be deleted per a retention policy tag.
I'm not married to this method but it did seem reasonable in terms of not leaving things to the users to sort items, and would love a better way to accomplish it.
The retention policy says we will keep communications for a maximum x years for users excluding certain document types (junk/spam, voice mails, Instant messages, Scanned docs) and any thing older will be automatically removed, the special documents
will have significantly shorted life spans (1 to 8 weeks).

Cannot change units in "Preferences" panel or "Document Setup"

PC, Windows 7, AI CC
I have a document that displays units in points, and when I change the unit type to inches in the preferences panel and the Document Setup panel, the change won't apply.
I've tried saving as a new document, restarting, etc. I even tried setting the units to other units... doesn't matter what I have the units set to in preferences, it's always displaying points.
Any thoughts?

alpinemice,
What happens if you create a new document and try to use inches in that?
If it works, what happens if you copy everything from the troublesome one into the new one (you may need to tick Paste Remembers Layers in the Layers palette first, and untick afterwards)?

Fix the Document Setup feature

In previous versions of Illustrator and all the other CS programs, you go to"File>Document Setup" and you have a place where you can type in the page size you want. In Illustrator CS4 they eliminated this feature. You can click on a button called "edit artboards" and drag handles to resize the page, but if you want a specific size, it's best to type in the page dimensions, not drag handles like you were cropping a photo.
Pleas bring back the ability to type in a page size in the Document Setup dialog box.

The problem with that is that now that Illustrator supports multiple artboards (let's not call them “pages”), how should Illustrator interpret the values you enter? Change all artboards? The last edited artboard? The first artboard? Let Illustrator guess? That only makes sense if there is only one artboard or if all artboards are the same size. Even then, one might actually want to change only one artboard, not all of them.
The interface for artboard size, much like the interface for bloody everything else in Illustrator, is awful. What’s needed is a Freehand-like Inspector panel where thumbnails of artboards can be resized and arranged without having to zoom way out, change tools, enter sizes in the Control panel, drag artboards around, wait for the art to redraw, do the hokey-pokey…

How to add a button in top ribbons of ALL library types (Not just document libraries)?

Hi there,
How to add this custom button on all Library Types (Not just document libraries)?
RegistrationId="101" RegistrationType="List" adds this button to Document Libraries only - which does not work for me.
Thanks so much.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add a custom button on the ribbon of all the library.
You can refer to the following code snippet, it would add a custom button “Site Settings” on the ribbon of all the libraries.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
<CustomAction Id="ListViewCustomization" Location="CommandUI.Ribbon.ListView" RegistrationId="101" RegistrationType="List" Title="List View Ribbon Customization">
<CommandUIExtension>
<CommandUIDefinitions>
<CommandUIDefinition Location="Ribbon.Documents.Share.Controls._children">
<Button Id="ListViewButton" Command="ListViewButtonCommand" Description="Go to Settings" LabelText="Site Settings" TemplateAlias="o2" Sequence="93"/>
</CommandUIDefinition>
</CommandUIDefinitions>
<CommandUIHandlers>
<CommandUIHandler Command="ListViewButtonCommand" CommandAction="/_layouts/settings.aspx" />
</CommandUIHandlers>
</CommandUIExtension>
</CustomAction>

A word document was emailed to me. I can open the document without a problem. Is there a way for me to type on the document.... to fill out the form? When I click the fields, the virtual keyboard does not appear.

A word document was emailed to me. I can open the document without a problem on my iPad 2. Is there a way for me to type on the document.... to fill out the form? When I click the fields, the virtual keyboard does not appear.

If you want to edit a word document then you will need an app on your iPad that supports word so that you can copy them to it via 'open in' e.g. Apple's Pages app or a third-party app such as Documents To Go or QuickOffice HD
