Want to use single page records per document page

Very new user here...using CS5
I'm trying to create a "Day to View" calendar. I've created a document in the required size of the calendar page (76x102mm) and I've merged the data (to create the days etc). As the calendar is small, I'd like to print four per page - so I would get four calendars per 365 printed pages (once cropped).
However, I'm not having any luck putting four on a page. Whenever I create the new document, I do get 365 pages, but only one calendar her page.
I keep thinking I should be using a big A4 page and putting four frames on it or something...but I'm not getting my head around it.
Any help appreciated. Thanks!
Sue

When I want to do something like this I make a single-instance file first, then make a second file and place the pages from the first file into it (in this case using a new page size large enough to hold 4 of the original pages). There is a script from Scott Zanelli that you can get from InDesignSecrets » Blog Archive » Zanelli Releases MultiPageImporter for Importing both PDF and INDD Files that makes this very easy. For a 4-up layout you wouold run the script four times, changing the positioning on the page between runs.

  • Data merge - multiple records per document

    I am trying to do a data merge to have 4 addresses per page. I have my main page setup with the merge fields. When I select create merged document, the "records per Document Page" drop down is greyed out. I cannot select multiple records.
    What am I missing?
    Thanks,
    Phil                          

    I guess I still do not understand how this works. I would like the multiple addresses to print 4-up on a page so that I can cut a letter size page in to fourths for postcards. The attached image shows my main document.

  • How to place 3 records per (printing) page

    Hi,
    How would I go about only displaying 3 records per each a4 paper printed.
    For example:
    9 records in total.
    I want to print that (printing on paper), but only want 3 records per A4 size as records are being split between two pieces of paper.
    Any help would be very much appreciated!
    Thank you!

    sorry.
    I have done all the extraction and they display on the page with no problem. All the records are there and display fine.
    The problem is that i need to be able to create something like a page break every three records, as when i send the print to the printer, it has 3 records and a half on each A4 sheet of paper.
    I just need to be able to code: 'only print 3 records per A4 sized paper'.
    I have a css'd div tag which is the size of the A4 paper, but i need to be able to tell it to only display 3 records per A4 page.
    At the moment, it looks like this:
    The 'sound trolley - PAC' record shouldn't be spliut between pages. The title and the details should be on the same page, so im guessing would require something like a break after 'Nexo Subwoofer'.
    This is the code for the page (all within the A4 size div):
    <div class="a4page">
      <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="2">
        <tr>

  • Number of Copies per Page, not per Document

    Hi,
    In my RTF-template, a delivery-note, I've put code to copy the Order 4 times. So far so good ... if the data contains several Orders, the PDF contains 4 pages for every single Order.
    This is the code: <?for-each:current-group()?><?for-each@section:xdoxslt:foreach_number($_XDOCTX,1,4,1)?>
    Problem is when an Order has multiple pages: then 1 want in the PDF 4 times the first page, then 4 times the next page.
    So now I have in the PDF:
    page1 page2 page1 page2 page1 page2 page1 page2
    But I want:
    page1 page1 page1 page1 page2 page2 page2 page2
    How can I accomplish this?
    regards,
    Walter.

  • HOW TO PRINT ONE RECORD PER ONE PAGE

    Hi I have report , with two queries. Each query has one group with the same data. lets say the queries are Q1 and Q2. The Groups are with column DeptNo, and DeptNo1 both pointing to the same column DEPTNO. Now I want to design it in such a manner that it shoudl print each group , one record per page, but same group on the same page. For Example
    ON PAGE 1
    DpetNo 10
    Emp1
    Emp2
    Emp3
    DeptNo1 10
    Emp1
    EMp2
    Emp3
    ON PAGE 2
    DeptNo 20
    Emp4
    Emp5
    DeptNo1 20
    Emp4
    Emp5
    ON PAGE 3
    DeptNo 30
    Emp6
    Emp7
    Emp8
    DeptNo1 30
    Emp6
    Emp7
    Emp8
    How the lay our will be ? What will be the conditions. I can set the property in each group to print one record per page. But how to make it so that it will print like above.
    Thanks
    FEROZ

    Hi Feroz,
    You can create a query Q0 to return DeptNo 10, DeptNo 20..... and make it as the parent of Q1 and Q2. Then you can print one dept per page.

    I had a similar problem and the resolution was to update program ZRVADOPFO as follows:
    before the * open form line insert the following:
        if sy-batch = 'x'
        and nast-vsztp < > 3 or 4
            clear lvs_itcpo-tdnewid
       endif
    This solved it for me.  Good luck.

  • Want to use my voice recorder with my MacBook Pro

    I have Olympus Voice-Trek V-11 and want to use it. The problem is that it's no longer supported by Mac. I use MacBook Pro with OS X 10.8.5. I appreciate it very much if anyone knows what should I do to make my voice recorder usable with my MacBook Pro?
    In other words, I'm looking for something like Apache's Open Office to  MS office suit.
    I appreciate anyone's help very much!

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    To do what you want, do not use Migration Assistant. You will damage OS X. Instead, you need to erase the hard drive, remove everything from your MacBook Pro and restore the Time Machine backup, so you will be upgrading to OS X Mountain Lion.
    It is as simple as holding down Command and R keys while your computer is starting up. Then, connect the external drive with the Time Machine backup, choose the option to transfer a Time Machine backup and follow the steps in the display.
    As you will lose everything you have in the MacBook Pro, you may want to make a backup of its files first.

  • Can't select Master Page object on document page.

    Hi,
    Yes, I know this question has been asked a million times. But, it's just not working for me. I've got a simple green box at the bottom right of my master page. I've made it into a button. I've allowed the master page to overwrite. But, on my document pages I simply cannot select this object. I've made the object into a button, per the master page, and, I need to have it link from each page back to a previous page in the document. Yes, I've tried Cmd + Shift, then click on the object, but, that doesn't work.
    My button shares space with a page text box. Those are the only objects on the page, though. If I move the text box up, then yes, I can select the button. But, that's cheating.
    Thanks a lot for any help.

    What do you mean shares space with? Is it on top of the button?
    If so, try locking it the text frame..

  • How do I change Records per Document in Create Merged Document tab?

    I'm trying to use the merge documents function, but when I go to the Create Merged Document tab and select Multiple Record Layout, the dropdown menu can't be changed from Single Record.

  • Acrobat 9-Want to use single form, not for data collection

    I have created a form that I want to give to my employees using Acrobat 9 Pro. The only options I see are to send the files and let them use them to re-submit. I don't need the information back. This is merely a checklist of information that they can keep for themselves for the project they are on. It will be stored on the file server accessable and editable at any time. If I save the form and open it from somewhere else using Adobe Reader, I can fill in the form fine, but if I save it after having changed it, it loses its "Advanced" form functions (mostly checkboxes and textboxes) and I cannot edit the form anymore.
    I just want to be able to create a form that can be opened, then "save as" for each employee to save their own copy per job.

  • Maximum Number of record Per page using XML Publisher with RTF template

    Hi
    I am creating customer statement and want to show only 20 records per page. How we can set maximum number of repord per page in rtf template.
    Thanks
    Ravi

    Ravi,
    I hope you are already done with this. In the invoice there is a nice example you can use on the xml blogs.
    You limit the number of lines per page when you use the xsl commands like this in your template:
    <xsl:variable name="lpp" select="number(13)"/>
    <?for-each@section:LIST_G_INVOICE?>
    <xsl:variable xdofo:ctx="incontext" name="invLines" select=".//G_LINES[LINE_TYPE='LINE']"/>
    <?for-each:$invLines?> <?if:(position()-1) mod $lpp=0?> <xsl:variable name="start" xdofo:ctx="incontext" select="position()"/>
    and then you have the table where you have the data
    <?for-each:$invLines?><?if:position()>=$start and position()<$start+$lpp?>
    and all your lines
    and then
    <?end if?><?end for-each?>

    It will work :)
    use xsl code
    <xsl:if xdofo:ctx="inblock" test="CONDITION_ELEMENT='TRUE'"><xsl:attribute name="break-before">page</xsl:attribute></xsl:if>
    or
    <?if:position() mod 10 = 0 and position() != last()?>
    <xsl:attribute name="break-after" xdofo:ctx="incontext">page</xsl:attribute>
    <?end if?>

  • How to use single frame in a page

    Hello, i would like to now how to make a frame in a page
    without having two or more, i was used to work with GoLive and
    there i could use the grid an put a single frame and make links to
    other pages that would open in that frame, it worked wel for me,
    but since I switched from golive to dreamweaver CS3 i am not able
    to do so. Is there some one how could tel me how to do so, since i
    use a lot of single frames in my pages,
    greetings

    why are you wanting to use single frames?
    They allow having the initial frame address stay in the
    address bar, and not
    show the linked page's address. The problems they cause
    usually override any
    value.
    Or- if we aren't using the same words the same way, please
    give an example
    site of what you want to do.
