Urgent: Fit to Page for Printed Version

Hi All,
I have a specific requirement from the client where they want all there web reports to fit to one page when exporting to PDF. The problem we are facing is that these are highly formatted reports and there is a mixture of report items and charts. Now the problem is that the report items follow their own print layouts and there is an explicit page break before and after these items. As I understand from SAP that this is how it is going to stay and they dont plan to add this feature. We are still talking to SAP on this. If anyone can help in any way in this regard, it will be much appreciated. Can this be implemented in some way through a custom development etc.
Thanks,
Pratik

so how gate the valid name of pages?
please slove my problem,
thanks

If your document has more than one section (sections are used to restart page numbering and similar tasks) you can identify the pages using either the logical name, which uses the section prefix and the "logical' page number which is the number that appears in the page marker, or you can use the absolute page number, which is the position in the document. You can set your preferences to display section or absolute page numbering in the Pages panel, too.
Unless you assigne some other prefix, sections are labeled as Section I, Section II and so on, and pages are designated by Section:Page# in the dialogs. If you want to use absolute page numbering in the dialog instead, you can add a + sign in front of the page number in the dialog: +6-+12 will be the sixth though twelf pages in your document, even if they are in different sections and carry the numbers vi - 4, for example.

PSE 8 - Can I reposition an image on a page for printing?

I am learning how to print photos using PSE 8 on a Mac running 10.6.4. In PSE 2, when printing I was able to slide a photo around on a page and reposition it for printing. (I could then print the photo on top of the page and then reinsert the paper into the printer and print on the bottom half too.) Is there a way to move a photo around on a page for printing in PSE 8 on a Mac? In PSE 8 Help, under Printing and Sharing Photos > Print Photos > Reposition an Image, it says you can: Choose File > Print and then use "the panning operation" to reposition the image, but I don't know what the "panning operation" is. All I see is an immovable box with the photo inside it. I can move the photo around in the box, but the box does not move with it, so no matter what, the photo (or a part of it) is going to print in the middle of the page it seems. Thank you for any help you can give me.

Try resizing the image before you go into the print dialog. Then, once you are in the print dialog, uncheck Center Image and you should be able to move it anywhere on the sheet.

How can I place 2 A5 sized pages on an A4 page for printing?

How can I place 2 A5 sized pieces of text on one A4 page for printing?

Hi,
If you want the text to flow from one side to the other, create a new A4 blank landscape document. Set left and right document margins to 1cm:
Type in some placeholder text, select it and set the Layout to 2 equal columns with a 2cm gutter:
Type in the text, it'll end up like this:
If you don't need the text to flow from one side to the other, then an alternative is to draw two equal-sized text boxes and type into them.
Cheers,

Download page for trial version of Photoshop and Lightroom Mac OS 10.6.8

Where can I find the download page for trial versions of Lightroom and Photoshop for Mac OS 10.6.8?
It's so hard that Adobe has no contact form, no way I can see to contact them. The help is not helpful to me, it's more like an FAQ. So I'd also be interested in knowing how their customer support is from anyone who has had to use it. They don't have any obvious way to contact them for pre-sales support. When I see that I get suspicious that you will get no help once you hand your money over.

Hi Wave.watcher.
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.
Since you are using Mac 10.6.8 you cannot use the CC version of Photoshop
so CS6 version of Photoshop would be apt for you.
Please use the below link

Changing images for print version

Is there a way to change an image for a print version?
My background is dark blue and my image is white, however if
I print this nothing will show because its white on white.
I want to use a different image that is dark blue for the
print version so that you can see it.
Can this be done with CSS?

That'd be nice. But you misplaced a decimal in the amount. It
needs to
move right! 8)

Can mac auto select pages for print by size

Hello, does anyone knows if there is a way how to set up on Mac auto selecting for printing pages by size? I need it to print loan documents for my notary public business. Using HP laser dual tray printer.

Hello Shane,
I am notary public and I would recieve file with documents that need to be printed on both legal and letter size paper. I used Adobe Acrobat from my husband's Windows computer which sorts the documents by paper size and then print's them out on correct size paper.
The printer I have is HP Laserjet 400 M401n.
Thank you for your help

How important is it to layer objects on the page for printing?

We are using InDesign CS3 on a Windows XP system and then sending to a RIP and then to an older Panther Pro 46 film printer.
We have lots of little problems, but one of the issues that happens occasionally, that we can't quite resolve is that for example...
When sending a job to the RIP 25 out of 26 pages will print fine (with all the separations and marks intact), but one of the pages, for some reason, is not properly printing the text or images (certain blocks of text print and certain ads or images drop out) and the marks are missing (registration, crop, color bars).
A friend told me that it is best practice to place images and text on separate layers. When we move objects onto different layers, sure enough, things start showing up. Unfortunately, this hasn't solved the problem completely. Sometimes, certain text would reappear while other things would disappear.
My guess is that we aren't moving the correct objects onto the right layers? Does it matter what goes on what layer? Does it matter which layer goes on top? Or is this all irrelevant?
Also, if anyone can point me to a good reference to press related resources. InDesign is new to us, especially on the PC, so I'm sure we could avoid many of our problems with some basic guidelines.
Thank you,
Joe

I also have an old RIP system although not exactly as yours. I have a page limitation (which is ironically 26). Anything over that page amount gave us issues that sound very similar to yours - Now, I just limit the number of pages per file. We prefer to flatten the files (now that we know the issue) as the rip will drop its own color space onto anything that has transparency. You may not have the color critical clients we do, but that is one reason why we flatten - and also that color is most appreciated when printed with its own attributes from a native file.

Where is the official download page for full version of Firefox? Old one has only stubs now.

The old page now has stubs only, there is no full version on it:
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
Separate but valid question: Searching Mozilla Support on this very forum yields no answers as to where to download the full version of the program itself, around which this entire forum has been set up with all the numerous questions in it about the program... yet there is no answer on how and where to actually *GET* the full version of the program... this strongly suggests that the forum administrators went out of their way, to make it difficult to impossible for users to get the FULL VERSION of the program...
There are many valid reasons for needing the full version of the program, don't you think it's pretty incredible that it has always been difficult to download the full version of Firefox? The old page had it buried in between the Acholi and Xhosa languages, even though English (US) is probably needed by millions of users vs. relatively few for Acholi and Xhosa... Millions of users had to go though gymnastics of finding it buried in between all the worlds languages with every consecutive version, and now they completely removed it even from that page...
What is the the reason, and you have to agree there is a reason, for Mozilla preventing us from having the full installation file? And what is the reason, even when the full installation file existed on that page, for this forum to make it almost impossible to find that page when searching the forum, or the entire internet for the official full version download page?

Last time I checked, that page did link to full installers. The format of the links for Windows was:
https://download.mozilla''.''org/?product=firefox-'''36.0.4-SSL'''&os=win&lang=en-US
I have bolded the part that currently says '''stub'''. Hand-crafted links in that form still work (but I have broken the link in this post with my formatting).
I don't have personal knowledge of what's going on with the "all" download page and hope it changes back.
As for blaming this forum for anything having to do with the "all" download page, you must be kidding. That page was always available from the main page using a link that said Systems & Languages and as the link says, it lists all the available systems and languages.

Hi everyone ! Question about a magazine in Pages for Printing in press printing

Hello all Pages users !,
I am really strugling with trying to learn, comprehend and use InDesign CS5 for a future free give-away 60 or 62 pages magazine.
I do understand and manage quite well apple 's PAGES for normal regular brochures and flyers use.
I truly need some advices regarding my project, as while being at ease with the use of Pages, there are some specific points I need
to make sure will work out when finally sending a pre-press and final PDF to my printer's house.
1/ How to set the necessary margins, bleed, trim, gutter and middle flat squre binding spin ?
2/ Will there be problems if I import pre-vectorized images/texts with transparent background (i.e. in PNG format)
3/ Should I only import CMYK photos from my photoshop instead of RGB ?
4/ Is there a specific setting for all the facing pages (let/right) and numbering them ?
5/ Once done, can I export the final PDF file to any Abode reliable PDF handler to secure and ensure all settings, colors and trim areas
will be perfect for press printing, and what would you guys kindly recommend ?
I know these are various and complicated questions and issues, but before venturing into PAges for my magazine set up, layout and
complete work, I would preferably ensure that it is possible to get a correct nice color magazine done in Pages instead of venturing
in the Highly professional very complicated inDesign software .
Thaks a milion in advance for all your advices, tipds and experience !
Awaiting your feddback guys !
Gratitude to all souls of good will for this help outcry ! ;-)

The person as always best able to answer your questions is the printer who will be printing your magazine.
They may be an exception but I doubt they will be happy with you doing it in Pages.
Pages is designed for output to your desktop printer. There are a string of issues to do with preparing a print job for commercial printing that Pages is either ill-equiped or plain just unable to manage.
If you say you are struggling with Indesign which is designed to manage all aspects of commercial printing, what makes you think that choosing a program that isn't will improve matters?
1. Pages does not have crops, bleeds or slugs. You can however manually construct these yourself with sufficient work.
2. Pages has no tools to help you manage your output, ensure that black only text/objects are black only, that resolution is high enough, that its unique objects such as frames pass through the printer's RIP correctly.
3. By default Pages produces exceptionally low resolution transparency (only 72dpi) for shadows, reflections, 3d graphs, frames and transparency overlaying bitmaps in exported pdfs.
4. Ask your printer whether he can fix trapping in his RIP because Pages doesn't.
5. You can DL and install certain print workflows that will correct some of these but will still not get correct pdf-X3 that printers require.
6. You can not bypass output through Apple's problematic print engine, even though fruhulda's link thinks he has.
7. OSX can not make spot color objects, although spot color already in pdf objects brought into Pages should (not guarranteed) be honored.
8. I don't know what you mean by pre-vectorized images because png is rgb bitmap only and does not contain vectors nor text. I think you might mean pre-rasterised, not a good idea.
9. You will assume command of the Good Ship Pages and all who sail in her, the printer will probably hand all responsibility for output to you. You get to pay no matter what happens. Good luck.
In summary, if you are uncomfortable with and don't know how to handle pre-press settings and requirements, I suggest you do not, and instead hand the job over to a professional to produce and manage for you.
Finding out that you do not have what it takes to print commercially, can be a very expensive and salutory experience. Printers will find it hard to say no to you despite their apprehension, but then it will be your baby.
Peter

I select a page for printing and the print page shows only the frame data and this is all that it prints.

when I click on print the page to print shows only the frame and that is all that is printed. Why isn't the page data shown on the print page and also printed?

This is how you do it:

PDFs are always scaling to fit the page when printing, after OS X 10.9 upgrade

Hello,
When I try to print a PDF on a sheet that is larger or smaller then the page size I have selected in Acrobat, it always reduces or enlarged it to fit, even when I tell it not to do any scaling. Please see my step by step process below for more details on how I am sending the file to the printer.
Preface:
This problem began after I upgraded my Mac OS to 10.9, and it only applies when I print from Acrobat Pro to our poly platesetter (I work in the prepress department for an offset printer). I have Acrobat Pro 9 and 11 on my computer, and I have the problem using either one.
• I do not have this problem when printing from InDesign, or any other CC application.
• I can print to our four other printers (desktop or copiers) from Acrobat without any scaling problems.
Description of the problem:
This is an example of a file I may need to print, a #10 envelope. The sheet and document sizes are in red.
The 'Page Size' is 4.13" x 9.5" and I have it set to print 'Actual size.' I have also tried 'Custom Scale' at 100%, but I still have the same problem. The preview in the print dialog is correct. It should just print the envelope, not the cropmarks that were on the PDF. I've sent down countless envelopes this way before I upgraded to 10.9 without any trouble.
Above is a screenshot of the file after it has been ripped at our platesetter. You can see it reduced the entire document to fit on the selected page size. The cropmarks should not be there, and it shouldn't have reduced the artwork.
I also have the opposite problem of my artwork being enlarged if I send something down that is smaller than my selected page size.
I know this a very specific problem, so I understand that I may not get much help on it. Thanks in advance for any help you may offer. I have workarounds, but this is really slowing me down, and if I accidentally plate something that was reduced or enlarged can be a very costly mistake if it get printed that way.
My Equipment:
• Early 2008 - Quad-Core Mac Pro 2.8 GHz
• I use Abobe CC applications, but I've tried Acrobat 9.0 as an alterative to Acrobat 11
• Our platesetter is: Mitsubishi SDP-Eco 1630 IIIR
with a Harlequin RIP 9.0 Revision 0
Thank you in advance for any insight you may have.

A workaround I found for my Fiery RIP if insist on using Acrobat XI:
In Acrobat's Print dialog, set:
Choose paper source by PDF page size = ticked
Use custom paper size when needed = ticked
In Page Setup, set Page Size = your custom size, i.e. 4.13" x 9.5"
In Printer, open the Fiery driver properties and set Paper Size = your custom size, i.e. 4.13" x 9.5"

Positioning image on page for printing in Elements 8

In Elements 6, in the "print" dialogue, you could uncheck "center image", and print an image anywhere you chose on the paper. I use
it because I print small decal images on A4 paper at the top, cut them off and can then reuse the (expensive) paper multiple times.
Where is this option in Elements 8? When I try to move the image by dragging in the preview, it moves "behind" the window, but the actual print position remains the same, and the image is not printed in full. Where can I set the position of the printed image on the page? Surely this useful feature hasn't been removed?
best regards,
Matt

Thanks Bob for your ideas. As Elo and Bryhy have mentioned, I find it very useful without leaving the Editor workspace to produce small test prints for tweaking colour, contrast, etc.before commiting to a final large print so it is important to maintain continuity. I have used PSE from Day 1, I have found it an excellent program and I was just completely dumbfounded to discover this facility had disappeared from PSE8. All they had to do was leave it there - the software was already written for all the previous versions. Elo speculates that removing it could be a ploy by Adobe to dumb down the program and thereby push the more advanced user towards the full Photoshop. On the other hand, Adobe do not seem to have dumbed down the editing capabilities which remain quite powerful so it could be they just did not realise how useful this print facility was to some users. Either way, I feel it is a reasonable expectation that upgrades should retain existing facilities or some equivalent alternative.
I continue to try to make contact with Adobe to see whether they feel able to restore the facility with an immediate upgrade or that it will be reinstated in the next version. I have submitted three cases, two simply referred me to the help manual and the thrid was deleted without reply. I then wrote to the Chief Executive of Adobe Systems Europe in February but so far no reply has been received so it does not look like I am going to get one. I now intend to write to the Cheif Exec in the US.

Best Way to Output to New Page for Printing

On my website, I have a page called
"form.cfm". The output from the form gets
processed, and results displayed onscreen, by
"formProcess.cfm" What is the best way to take
the form data displayed on formProcess.cfm and output it to a new
page suitable for landscape printing? I want to have a link on
formProcess.cfm that says something like "Printer Friendly
Version". When the user clicks that link, a new window
opens with a printer-friendly page. The same form data displayed on
formProcess.cfm is now displayed on the printer-friendly page. My
biggest question is, how to get the form data to formProcess.cfm,
and then to a third page without a bunch of fancy coding that's
above my thick head?
Code samples are deeply appreciated.
Many thanks,
Gwen H
www.ResumesForLess.com

New page named formPrint.cfm with just the following:
<cfdocument format="pdf" orientation="landscape">
<cfinclude template="formProcess.cfm">
</cfdocument>
have the print link on your formProcess.cfm page submit the
original form data to the formPrint.cfm page.
OR, you might just want to put the cfdocument tags in the
formProcess.cfm page and just automatically provide a pdf page that
can be printed rather than generating both the htm and pdf
versions.

Duplicating a layout across a page for printing?

Hi Guys
I have designed a coupon in Photoshop CS4 and I want to print it on an A4 sheet. I've designed it so that I can fit 5 on a sheet. But I'm not sure of a simple way to layout 5 on a sheet, other than cutting and pasting the coupon 5 times on a blank sheet.
Any simple solutions to this issue?
Many thanks
Tom

If the coupon document is the correct size 1/5 page size save that for backup. Next you can record a simple Action and play it three times aftre you record it. Recording it you will wind up with two coupon. Playing it will add a coupon. Action steps
Dupe current layer.
Canvas Size check relative. Move anchor point to to center box in the hight ented the coupon height click OK.
Select all
Manu Layers>Align Layers to selection>Bottom edge vertical bottom
deselect.
Play action three times.
