Make a PDF of non-standard size of Microsoft Word 2003 on pc

I have Acrobat 8 Professional (pc, operating system Windows XP) and want to know how to make a pdf from Microsoft Word (2003) where the size of my document remain as they are, a non-standard size, such as 5.5 "x 8.5". All the choices of "paper size" is standard, and if I check "Custom" and type the non-standard dimensions, it does not work. In other programs, such as InDesign, I can make a pdf to any size of document I want without any problem. Does anyone know how to make this work for Word on pc?

You can create a customized for Acrobat page size.

In Word:

  1. File > print (choose AdobePDF) > Properties.
  2. On the Properties of the Document Adobe PDF tab, choose Add beside the size of Page Adobe PDF.
  3. Type a name for your new custom page size and type in your dimensions.
  4. Click Add/change to close this window, and then select your newly created in the drop-down list paper size.
  5. Click Ok to close this window
  6. Click OK to print

For a later printing, you may not redefine the page, simply choose from the menu drop down.

  • Can't make a PDF from a MS-word file

    Hello

    I can't make a PDF from a MS-Word file. The function has been effective for a long time, however, it became not effective this time. I tried to make a PDF from another MS-Word file and a pdf file could be made to be. Therefore, in my view, the problem is in the Adobe Acrobat.

    Version: WAA Acrobat 9.0.

    OS: Windows 7 Professional, Japanese version.

    I tried to make a pdf file from other files in MS-Word and also from other applications, including Windows Memo, however, make a folder of pdf have been impossible so far. When I tried to make a pdf file, a small window appears on the screen, saying that a PDF Adovè is underway. In the window, 'document name' selective and candidates of the 'document' name are the list of file names which I missed to make a PDF of these MS-Word and other applications.

    I checked some information about the website and Adobe, however, that the information available for my case appeared to be "uninstall and install again". I prefer other methods if possible.

    Thanks in advance for your answer.

    Thanks CtDave for your helpful reply.

    Fortunately, the problem has been resolved by the method which I didn't do, uninstall and reinstall. I got to have a time to do the job this time.

    One last thing I found was the problem in the MS-Word file. I've included some figures that have been copied from PowerPoint file. I changed the jpg files using Windows Paint software, then a PDF file could be from the new version of MS-Word format.

    Thank you CtDave for your reply anyway.

  • PDF attributes - special characters - Microsoft word has changed

    I create multiple PDFs (with Acrobat 9 Pro) every day from Microsoft Word 2003. When I do a lot of changes to the MS Word document, I compare the new PDF from the old PDF. The menu of Acrobat 9, I use the Document / compare and select "reports, spreadsheets, presentations magazine.

    I have a lot of special characters in my Word document, such as chips, and symbol characters such as ' less than or equal to ' and ' greater than or equal to ". Even if none of the pages with these symbols have changed, the special characters are marked as changes.

    It's really annoying. I have to watch many false "changed pages" and decide to ignore them. Today, I've recreated a 62 page PDF file. There is only two pages I had edited in Word format. When I compared the files PDF, he marked 30 pages with modifications.

    Each page with a point of the bullet has been marked as a change. When I pass the mouse on this point in the Acrobat summary compare, it shows a different size ball and indicates that the police has changed. But actually, nothing has changed.

    I'm curious to know if anyone knows how to keep these elements of flag changes Acrobat. In earlier versions of Acrobat, there was a way to say to ignore the changes of fonts. Maybe someone could tell me how to do this in Acrobat 9...

    One possibility could be that the fonts are not included.

    Hi kevin7frg,

    You can go to "file > create > scanner > configure presets PDF»

    The dialog box that appears, you can choose 8.5 X 11 as the default width and height of PDF pages to scan.

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Carrie,

    To reduce the file size of a PDF, you need Acrobat. If you do not have Acrobat, we invite you to try free for 30 days. See www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html. (In Acrobat, choose file > save as other > PDF of small size.)

  • Tips for the TCP wait of asynchronous Messages with non-standard expression tanks

    Hi all

    I have a PITA instrument that I need to communicate with in a system of greater control.  This instrument communicates via RS232 to a server running on the PC OEM application.  In order to communicate with the instrument, I have to use the TCP protocol on a specific port on Localhost - So far so good as long the protcol is answer command.

    The problem is that the instrument sends several messages asynchronously of different sizes with a double newline as a tank of termination (there are many CR/LFS all these messages so that they cannot be a MOE) and I am struggling to find a way to manage receive asynchronous messages of variable length with a cusom CHARACTER term. without having simply a fast dedicated for TCP loop reads trying to catch these asynchronous status messages.

    I wish the functions VISA TCP has worked with the local host, given that the properties that can be set to change the chariot of non-standard term.

    Open to suggestions-

    Thank you

    Ronin

    Yes, I'll be streaming in my own string buffer and then to choose the messages out of the buffer when you find the stop character.

    A technique to improve performance, rather than reading a single byte at a time is to use the "immediate" on reading TCP mode and use a high value for the "bytes read" - in this way, it will return all of the data that is there without waiting for all the specified bytes or the time-out. He will wait only the full timeout if 0 bytes are received (which you can ignore) - set to a low value such as 100ms.

  • PIM and "non-standard properties." RIM; JDE 4.3.0

    Hello community!

    I'm introducing some non-standard properties in the VCALENDAR from my Blackberry. Even if I think I have to comply with the RFC 2445, sect 4.8.8.1, my application will not work. I guess the menthod 'commit()' kill everything I put in. Is there another way to bypass the call 'commit() '?

    Code:
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Import Java.util;

    Javax.microedition.pim import. *;

    Net.rim.device.api.ui import. *;
    Net.rim.device.api.ui.component import. *;

    .
    .
    .

    Get the PIM Instance
    PIM pim = PIM.getInstance ();

    Download EventList in RW mode
    EventList el = (EventList) pim.openPIMList (PIM. EVENT_LIST, PIM. READ_WRITE);

    Get elements of EventList
    Enumeration e = el.items ();

    simplified recovery of the first event.
    Any of the proofs advanced, I know that there is one in there
    Event c = (Event) e.nextElement ();

    Get the serialized event
    ByteArrayOutputStream output = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    String [] dataFormats = pim.supportedSerialFormats (PIM. EVENT_LIST);
    pim.toSerialFormat (c, output, "UTF8", dataFormats [0]);

    serialized event to Convert to a string
    String serialEvent = output.toString ();

    view the content on-screen
    Add (new SeparatorField());
    Rtf RichTextField = new RichTextField();
    rtf.setText (serialEvent);
    Add (new SeparatorField());

    //
    In order to see if the changes I make are actually applid
    at the event in the PIM, I change the "DESCRIPTION:" field. He
    contains the text "this is a Note."
    //

    TEMP and target String
    String _tmp;
    _New string;

    changing the text in ' DESCRIPTION:'. I put a '-' in front of it
    _Pos int = serialEvent.indexOf ("he is a");
    _TMP = serialEvent.substring (0, _pos) + "-" + serialEvent.substring (_pos, serialEvent.length ());

    end of search for VCALENDAR statement...
    _Pos = _tmp.indexOf("END:VCALENDAR");

    ... and insert the X property according to the RFC 2445 4.8.8.1 sect.
    _new = _tmp.substring (0, _pos) + 'X-XXX-XXX; XXXTYPE-XXX-X = XXX:MyType "+"\r\n"+ _tmp.substring (_pos, _tmp.length ());

    Change is made. Check the on-screen
    RichTextField rtf_4 = new RichTextField();
    rtf_4.SetText (_new);
    Add (rtf_4);
    Add (new SeparatorField());

    //
    Change seems good. Now, put it to the PIM
    //

    kill the original event
    el.removeEvent (c);

    prepare the flow
    Bais ByteArrayInputStream = new ByteArrayInputStream (_new.getBytes ());

    Create PIM Item _new String (as amended)
    PI [] PIMItem = pim.fromSerialFormat (chestnut, "UTF8");

    create a new element of PIM event
    Event newEv = el.importEvent ((Event) IP [0]);

    and now commit event to PIM
    newEv.commit ();

    Close EventList
    El.Close ();
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As indicated in the comments of the modified code serialized event seems ok. The transition to the event in the DESCRIPTION: field was resumed and is visible in the normal case in the calendar on the phone app. If the data changes and the commit() stuff works. But the X property is filtered and not applied. What I see when I run my application a second time and check the VCALENDAR entry serialized on the screen.

    I'm not sure the correct location of the X property. I tried it immediately before the ' END: VEVENT ", as well as before" END: VCALENDAR ". None of them works.

    Someone who knows how to successfully add X-properties?

  • DMS 5.4 Lab (demo) non Standard installation

    OBJECTIVE:

    Install 5.4 on the available laboratory equipment.

    CURRENT SITUATION:

    I have the software for v.5.4 (iso images, with demo licenses, here are the exact versions).

    • DMM - 5.3.0.244.iso
    • DMS-UPG-later - 5.4.0.736.iso

    IDEAL & UNLIKELY SOLUTION:

    Install ESXi and then create a virtual computer, and then install on the virtual machine, or use something like that.

    POTENTIAL COMPROMISE:

    I was advised to try to "Trick" the installation program and install directly on bare metal.

    QUESTIONS RELATING TO THE:

    1. Can anyone here advise me on what to try everything first, the best options and last ditch effort?
    2. I could potentially get this install on naked, non-standard extra material metal (I've got 2 boxes sitting around, the two are FIRST-NCS-APL-K9)
    3. Additional advice or reference URL/Docs, you can offer?

    REFERRING URL:

    Hi Paul,.

    You can not achieve what you're trying to do with standard DMS software. Which can be installed on hardware support.

    You must purchase the software Virtual DMM EGGS if you want to deploy a DMM as a virtual machine on custom hardware.

  • Color with a non-standard lens correction

    Hey community!

    I was invited to correct the colors of photos about 1,500 scientific for my wife's work. All these pictures are taken in the same lighting conditions. All are JPEG directly from the camera. Not VINTAGE. And each of them a color target - unfortunately, a non standard. This is a crop of an image of the sample:

    fish-bad-target.jpg

    If the target was a ColorChecker or similar, I would have done a profile using Adobe DNG Converter to make a custom profile. However, I don't know the values of the target company. Yet.

    I have have access to the camera and the target as well. My question is, how you guys would get a reasonable color of these photos without too much effort?

    Is there a way to correct the colors, specific values? As a profile so I know that the correct values in this graph - analog to the DNG workflow?

    How would try to solve this task?

    Your recommendations are welcome!

    Sebastian

    I had a similar problem, as seen in the two samples in the top row. (The difference in yellow is more immediately apparent). Try this:

    After the shooting at the current target with Passport, creating the corrected version (Fig 1) (and convert to jpg to accompany the rest of your files), put the lower than corrected uncorrected version and hide the version corrected, as shown in the lower left image. The result may look like the image below on the right. I found as a black & white adjustment layer (set to luminosity) has established an acceptable match. Is not perfect. In my case, close enough even if only your level has been adjusted. You can choose a different adjustment related to the color balance, for example layer. This adjustment layer, you drag over each of your files should make the correction you want.

    Something more: it may be necessary to use curves to match the gray scales before starting to process colors.

  • Difference between Pack PDF and Acrobat Standard XI

    What is the annual difference between the annual subscription to Adobe PDF Standard XI and subsrciption to PDF Pack?

    Almost everything about their is different, except that the two can do and combine PDF files, and convert it to Excel/Word (but do not expect too much of it).

    Acrobat Standard runs on your computer. It can make PDF files from any application that can print. It can combine PDF files, with forms to fill out (limited), VERY limited editing, security, sign, add annotations, much more. It replaces Adobe Reader.

    PDF pack is a service on the Adobe web site, limited to 100 MB files. Does not replace the Adobe Reader software. Fact just what he claims and no more.
