DataMerge with the verse pages

Hello

I just opened an old job where we had a Brochure with some pages which has been customized with the help of a file .csv and DataMerge front.

for some reason, if I try to do it again in our current Version of the 2015.4 of the InDesign CC it is all messed up.

And with messed up I mean that for each 'line' of the. CSV, I get correct output in my .pdf file, BUT each page for ALL ranks is double 1 x published data, 1 x white.

So that's how:

Page 1 - data

Page 1 - no data

Page 2 - data

Page 2 - no data

Page 3 - data

Page 3 - no data

Page 4 - data

Page 4 - no data

This is repeated for each line of the. CSV.

I don't have this kind of problem when iam using unique pages (unfortunately that's not how the brochure was sad to the top and it would be a lot of work to change as each page has an image across two pages + text on two pages)

If I generate an InDesign file first and go from there, it works but the .pdf of the generated output is very large compared to the directly generated .pdf file.

I hope this isn't too complicated - is this a known bug?

No idea how I could fix easily?

Which is kind of how I did today.

I have appointed a new Document without coating pages and re-created everything from scratch.

Isn't that easy since all the pages had an image and also text on two pages that also had him Datamerge tags within the text.

So I have learned for the future... no facing for Datamerge pages!

I was hoping I could avoid re-creating the entire document / splitting of the texts and images so that they will fit 100% etc.

The work is done now - and iam still not sure if this is a feature or a bug.

  • with the master page "insert current page number" error when you export the book

    Using InDesign CS for Windows 5.5

    Recently updated for InDesign CS (very old one from 2003). I save a copy of all my old files version and kept the old installed ID just in case (after reading all the horror stories on here).

    In my old version of ID, I created a book consisting of some 70 documents. Some of these documents are a single page, while others have multiple pages. In the multiple documents page, I used the "insert... current page number" character (or whatever the command was in the old version) on a page master and formatted as follows, for example: Page 1 of 17, Page 2 of 17, Page 3 of 17, etc. When I exported my book in pdf format, it worked fine. (I is not have to / want page numbers consecutive throughout the book, only in individual documents.) By that I mean my whole book is about 280 pages, but not all of these 280 pages are numbered, only groups of pages in multi-page documents. It is not read page 1-280).

    Am my upgrade to 5.5 a few months ago added some documents in the book, and (if I remember correctly) when I saved the book he asked to convert each document version to the new version, I said OK. When I exported the book in pdf format, some documents that are more than 2 pages are now counted wrong; the numbers are now like this: Page 1 of 17, Page 2 of 17, Page 2 of 17 (supposed to be page 3), Page 2 of 17 (supposed to be page 4), etc. Each page, but page 1 is now page 2 of that either.

    If I open the individual document and export it to PDF, the page numbers work very well. It is only when the document is exported with the book the page numbers to spoil. And it's not all documents in my book; This error starts to a particular document and continues from there throughout the rest of the book, affecting any document more than 2 pages. Documents several pages before that point in the book for export with the correct page numbers.

    I create new documents by performing a "save under" with a previously created document and cut and paste as needed, so I won't have to reformat or implement the page numbers on each new document. I use layers or styles (I do not know there is a better way to do what I need, but I didn't have time to learn the basics, just enough to be functional.)

    My attempts to resolve this problem so far (using version 5.5), tests with the first document where the error: (1) I have removed the document from the book, removed the page number character current insert, back to the current page number character insert, saved, the individual document exported in pdf format and it worked fine. Put it in the book, save, export, and it is bad. (2) I picked up the book document, export the document to .idml, registered as a new .indd new name, exported to PDF and it worked fine. Put it in the book, save, export, and it is bad. (3) I started to the top of my old version of ID, open from the previous version of this document, exported .inx, closed, open the .inx in ID 5.5, registered as a new .indd new name, exported to PDF and it worked fine. Put it in the book, save, export, and it is bad. (4) I moved the document to the top in the order book, put it on a document which correctly numbered pages, saved, exported to PDF and this document was still evil, but one who has been numbered correctly all along is still correct. (5) I compared the settings for this document to others that the number properly and found no difference.

    It's as if the page numbers get hooked on "2" when I export the book, but only in the last two-thirds of the book. Sorry this is so long, but I hope that this description of my problem is understandable. Any advice, other than to go back to my old version documents and start over?

    Thank you for your time and all the information great this forum provides.

    Alice

    Normally, I would say that this kind of problem is symptomatic of the incorrect numbering options in the book panel or an individual document or a bad update of the numbering, and those things are still definitely worth looking at.

    That said, I invite you to go to the original files, export each one to .inx and open those in CS5.5 and save as a new file .indd CS5.5 whose new name, then add them to a whole new book CS5.5. Books are pretty flakey without mixture in the conversion of files, and there are enough bad behvior file conversion directly inherited the .inx route is insurance a little success.

  • Firefox Will not start with the home page. Continues to set up where I left off whenever I start firefox

    Firefox keeps opeing where I left instead to start with my home page. I use the latest firefox with windows8. Dosen't happen with windows7. This has happened with the last update.

    Replacing the pref.js didn't fix the problem, I just do a default reset firefox and that solved the problem.

  • Someone has just a difficulty to stop to open with the home page homepage?

    I see that this problem is widespread, but some of the 'easy' patches are for computer geeks only. I would like to know if anyone could tell me how to get rid of the home page without delving into the bowels of my computer? I'm not writing software, and I'm not going to jump through hoops to try to get rid of this nuisance.

    There must be more people like me who look at some of these answers and think, 'What?'... especially when you see what you see apparently when you "walk through" the steps to correct this problem.

    I think that Firefox should address this personally, since it's their update that we screwed everything. Supposedly, updates are supposed to make us 'ready to take advantage of the latest speed, flexibility and security. Yes, good. How to fix this bug, Firefox? Instead of making your users solve problems for you. This is ridiculous.

    If no one can help me to solve this problem without having to get a degree in computer science, can someone tell me how to get rid of the update total? I'll take my chances of NOT being "ready to enjoy the last speed, flexibility and security.

    I'm sorry for the frustration, but it's just simply unacceptable. We shouldn't have go through it whenever we update. Thanks for any help!

    See? Complicated. I'll just live with it. Thank you.

  • Someone else's problem with the Web page jump when hovering the links with long URLS in Firefox 4 beta 12?

    When I hover over a link with a URL that is longer than what corresponds to the length of the status bar in Firefox 4 beta 12, the entire page jumps back until I stop hovering over the link. It was so annoying (especially on Google search pages with lots of links, etc.) In fact, I uninstalled Firefox 4 Beta 12 and returned to the release of the Beta 11.

    Is there anything in all: config which would disable the status bar that the URL link seen in, at least?

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  • Form with the report Page

    Hi all

    Are there new version of Apex 4.2 or 5.0 already?

    Currently I have 4.0

    I created a page of type applications 'report with the formula '. I noticed that the 'create' and 'Edit' page share the same form. How to make a field (for example, PROJECT_NAME) in one be 'disabled' or 'hidden' when the form editing option?
    I want to only activate the option 'create '.


    Thank you much in advance.

    Kins

    Kins,

    You have been close to answering your own question right along but access to your workspace and making the fix will not help you to learn this valuable concept.

    You said

    I want to show the column in 'create', but not in "update".

    Now take this statement and apply it to your form. What happens in "Create" "Update" mode, versus mode? A create button usually against an apply changes button. So go back to early solution of Gus; apply a condition to the item you want to hide based on how you want this condition to be taken into account. In other words, your buttons are already conditioned; all you have to do is to apply the same State to your item.

  • Please help send an email with the html page in the body

    I need an html page on the body of an email to send a blast to send to our customers.

    HTML emails can be a bit complicated. You can design in Dreamweaver, but you shouldn't really have to send emails of mass through to your personal e-mail account (or your company account). Could you put blacklisted by spam filters in the company and make your pretty useless email addresses.

    Mass emailings (more than a few hundred addresses) I use http://www.icontact.com.

    You can build the email through their site (without DW) or you can import your DW html file to their service.

    Some things to keep in mind with the HTML email...

    1. the use of absolute links to the images and files on a server you control

    2. use a limited amount of inline css (no external css or integrated)

    3. specify in table based layouts, css support is spotty at best with email clients

    4. thewill be eliminated a number of email clients don't rely not on what it is between theTags makes to your recipients

    5. do not use an email only to images. HTML text is very important to keep from being labeled as spam, make the secondary images in the message, many email clients will not download images without permission of the user

    6. include a link to unsubscribe so people can get off your list

    There are more things to watch, but who are the biggest. Here are some other good info: http://alt-web.com/Articles/HTML-Emails.shtml

  • Combine JPEG files to create PDFS with the white page background

    Hello, I have hundreds of analyses of paper of various sizes, same dpi, and I would like to combine them to create a PDF with each of them a Virgin 8.5 x 11 background page? as in an album. Is this possible using acrobat only? Or should it be done on a program like indesign? Appreciate any thoughts.

    There is a way with Acrobat, and the process could even be script to greatly speed things up. I think it's for each image, create a blank page in the PDF file, and add a button on each page with the height/width equal to that of the page. Set up each button with a layout that is the icon only and the scaling and positioning as necessary. You can then import each image as an icon of a button. Once this process is complete, you can flatten pages, which will convert the images to the content of the page regularly, remove the buttons in the process.

    Above the provided Adobe forum link is good, but 50% of my problem is solved. In other words, the selection of the image and using her crop tool 'page size' is increased, but the image on the page is still small, or it does not increase with the size of the page.

    To resize the image, you need to select with the object tool and drag the buttons on the sides and the corners to resize it.

    Much of what you do can be done in Acrobat, but this isn't the ideal application for such actions. Acrobat isn't really an editing tool, but a tool to create a finished product that provides essentially platform independent product. You might find what you want to do is best done in a word processor or page layout tool, then a PDF file created from this result.
