Why is print selection so big?

I'm using the Safari service Print Selection. Text through this feature is always very large. For example, if you highlight the middle column (main context) here http://www.alistapart.com/articles/previewofhtml5 and do Print Selection | Print | Preview, the images will be clipped and text larger than what's on the page. I always end up printing selected text from a Windows machine because Safari doesn't do a good job of it. Is there a fix for this?

4thSpace,
Question for you, are you trying to print Photos and txt at the same time? Cause you can set the Printer Queue to stay in the dock and then when ever you want to print an image you can drag that image to the icon on the dock and it will print. Same goes for any documents you have on your computer.

I installed acrobat 8 standard, the printer did not install, we cannot select files to convert to PDF. Why did printer not install

I installed my acrobat version 8 standard and activated however the printer did not install. The download was successful but we have no printer icon to select to convert files to PDF. Can you help with why the printer did not install. we have windows 7 op system

Sorry ! - you seems a little un-clear about what you are really doing and what your problem really is.
Your headline says Acrobat.com your text Adobe.com , you tell you clicked on the file for a pdf page but not where it is that you are clicking , then tells you are stuck and that you are waiting for Acrobat 8..........
First of all : if your question concerns Acrobat.com then you were posting in the wrong forum ! The Acrobat.com forum is located here http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobatdotcom
Secondly if your question were regarding printing files from Acrobat.com then here are some links that you could find of assistance :

How to print selected cells in numbers

Does anyone know how to print selected cells in a Numbers spreadsheet, rather than printing the entire sheet?
Also, how to save the selected cells as a pdf file without saving the irrelevant cells?

Hi nmygs,
How about this?
Cell A1 is a Pop-Up Menu containing names of the various "Departments"
Other cells contain formulas to find a match for whatever is chosen in A1 from the Very Big Data Table.

Sudden loss of print selected area in Photoshop 10.0.1?

Between printing one image and printing the next I seem to have lost the ability to print a selected area in Photoshop 10.0.1. I am using this old program because the new Photoshop does not have that option. The box is now greyed out. Does any know why I could lose this, and what can I do to get it back? This is extremely important to my work method...
Thank you.
Mary Challinor

Great news! "Print Selected Area" was restored in Photoshop CS6.
Go to File > Print, scroll down in the dialog box that appears, et voila:

I can't print selected text in a Print dialogue box in Yahoo mail or my bank site. I used to, now I can't.

I am having this problem both in my online banking site and when using Yahoo Mail. When I click on Print on either of these sites and then close the Print dialogue box that automatically comes up, highlight just the text I want printed, then hit Ctrl+P and choose Selection, Print Preview shows me a blank page. When I try printing the selection using either of the 2 printers I have, it prints a blank page. And yet when I do the same thing in Internet Explorer, I have no trouble printing the text I want. I tried doing the prefs.js troubleshoot, deleting everything in that file that starts with print, but it made no difference. I used to be able to print this way in Firefox no problem, but now it doesn't work. Why not, and how do I get it to work again? I'm using Windows XP and Firefox 11.

A bug was introduced in the latest version of Firefox that affects printing selections that are inside a table. Because many pages use tables for general layout (without displaying the borders), this may appear to strike at random.
A fix is expected in Firefox 12. More information: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/923294 how to get print selection to work | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help]
If you expand your selection to include some content outside the table, then the feature should work, but of course it would include some unnecessary information.

Why when I select a bright/rich color it wont let me and is instead a very dull version of that colo

why when I select a bright/rich color it wont let me and is instead a very dull version of that color? Why can't I select a color and get exactly what I picked?
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SOMEONE EXPLAIN THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Check your document color mode and the mode of the color picker as well as your color managemnt settings. You can't print certain colors in CMYK and AI is correctly adjusting gamut based on your settings on that assumption. Work in RGB if you need "pure" colors.

Print selection in Firefox

I've loaded a Print Selection service (either Shubert's or Chin's, no way to identify) and it works in Safari, but in Firefox the Services menu for it is grayed-out. Why?
As a second question, how do I remove a service if I decide I no longer want it. I'd like to remove the above service and reload in a better identified way.
Don Strack

Yes, the print selection feature has been tweaked a few times in recent versions. It was very broken in Firefox 11, and the fix has exacerbated the issue of the position of the selection not moving to the top of the page (which has existed for a long time, but is worse now).
'''''Workarounds'''''
I agree that the Print Edit add-on, which allows very fine control of items on the page, is not the best workaround for this issue because you often have to click many items to get the same selection.
The add-on [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nuke-anything-enhanced/ Nuke Anything Enhanced] has the option to remove everything except your selected text from the page. Then you can print normally (i.e., without choosing the Selection bubble). I don't see a feature to undo that, so you would need to reload the page afterwards in order to continue working with it.
Some screen shots illustrating this usage appear below this post.
(Note: from the earlier thread [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/923294?page=2#answer-328397 how to get print selection to work, page 2].)

if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.

Can't find out why my DB is that big

I've got a database which is 260 GB in size. Since I know the application behind the DB, I know the DB should never be that big. Even more, one night I noticed that the DB has increased 30 GB where no obviously activity in the application happened.
The database has multiple tables, but only one of them has the big size of ~260 GB (checked trough Object Explorer Details and by various TSQL-queries). So I know the table for sure, but not the reason of the size of it. It's actual not possible the data
inside it needs the storage, because the table has only 120'000 rows and only 17 columns. Non of the columns are LOBs, there are only datatypes of uniqueidentifier, int, varchar, nvarchar and datetime. Even when I take the max of 8 KB for a row and multiplicate
it by 120'000 rows, the database should be smaler than 1 GB.
I already raised suspiction the index or the statistic could be that big as some queries a had run results a Index-size of 220 GB. Other queries on the other hand results a small index.
However, meanwhile I've dropped that Index (moreover, the Primary Key behind it) and also dropped the statistics. There is no index at all at moment (I will recreate the PK_Index after the size issue is solved). I tried to shrink the database several
times, but I doesn't work. The size remains 260 GB. Yesterday I run the sp_clean_db_file_free_space which took 6 hours (!) but also doesen't decrease the database file. At moment I run the sp_clean_db_free_space SP, but I don't believe this will help me.
So my questions are:
* How to find out why the database is that big?
* How to decrease it?
Has somebody an idea? Thanks...

What is database recovery model? If it is full can backup the db then backup the log and then issue DBCC SHRINKFILE to reduce the physical size fo the log file.
What does it return?
SELECT @@SERVERNAME AS SqlServerInstance,
db.name AS DatabaseName,
SUM(CASE WHEN af.groupid = 0 THEN 0 ELSE 8192.0E * af.size / 1048576.0E END) AS DatabaseSize,
SUM(CASE WHEN af.groupid = 0 THEN 8192.0E * af.size / 1048576.0E ELSE 0 END) AS LogSize,
SUM(8192.0E * af.size / 1048576.0E) AS TotalSize
FROM master..sysdatabases AS db
INNER JOIN master..sysaltfiles AS af ON af.[dbid] = db.[dbid]
WHERE db.name NOT IN('distribution', 'Resource', 'master', 'tempdb', 'model', 'msdb') -- System databases
AND db.name NOT IN('Northwind', 'pubs', 'AdventureWorks') -- Sample databases
GROUP BY db.name

Why has print gotten SMALL for email?

why has print gotten too small for email?

Is this a change from the way it was? Is this on e-mail received or that you are composing? If received, whoever sent you the e-mail may have chosen a small font size. Try selecting the text and use the command - + to make it bigger.

Does anyone know why when printing from light room to pdf the program just closes on me? I've talked to tech support and they are going to get back to me tomorrow but I am desperate I have tuns of homework to finish !!

No, but if you really mean that the way you said it, I don't know that Print is the best way to this. If you haven't already, after selecting the images you want to get printed, try clicking the Export button in Book or Library module and then selecting format .PDF. Once you export the file to .PDF, try opening it where you saved it and printing from there, not in Lightroom but in Adobe Reader. If that doesn't help, here are a couple of videos that might--follow their instructions carefully with no shortcuts:
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4's Export to PDF Using the New Book Module - YouTube
Lightroom 5 - Exporting Images | Getting Started with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 | Adobe TV
If Lightroom keeps closing even when you try all this, you may need to reinstall Lightroom because your copy may be screwed up.

Print Selection in Leopard.........

Hi all,
Apart from just loving my Imac, I just can't understand why Apple does not have a print selection option in it's print box. I know that there are 'other' options, but I guess in this day and age, a simple print selection option in the printer dialog would be sensible.
Does any body know what the logic is behind Apple not having one. Dare I say it even Windows has had it I imagine since Windows 1995!
Just can't get my head around what the issue is with including it, it surely can't be that hard to do?
Anyway, apart from loving the new Leopard system (apart from a few niggles), would appreciate your thoughts.
Timberman

You can be that someone. Send a bug report (or enhancement request) to Apple via its Bug Reporter system. Join the Apple Developer Connection (ADC)—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report/enhancement request. You'll get a get a Bug ID number; thus, starting a dialog directly with engineering.
Alternatively, send Feedback, but that usually goes through support and marketing—might not get to engineering.

Hi ,
The cause of the issue is the standard rdf is set to run for single operating unit. But R12 is a moac setup enable application. Hence The operating unit mode is changed to Single from null in system administration concurrent program setting for the XML report concurrent program.
This fixed the issue.
Thanks
