• What impression Firefox does not open the print dialog window

  When printing to our office, we often print on several printers, not just the default printer. When you print in Firefox, however, printing is automatically sent to the default printer and I do not get a print dialog window. I reset the options Firefox of the printer, change the file prefs.js and started Firefox in safe mode to check if an add-on affect printing - all about nothing done. When I print from Chrome, or (shudder) Internet Explorer, I get a dialog box send me options of the printer. Your help and your responses will be appreciated.

  There is a hidden preference to work around the dialog box, but it is certainly not defined by default. To check that:

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste print and make a pause so that the list is filtered

  (3) If you find a preference named print.always_print_silent there is your trouble.

  Next question would be, where it comes from? A few possibilities:

  (A) a user.js file that overrides prefs.js at startup. See: How to fix preferences that will not save.

  (B) a file lock in the program folder. See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences

• JavaScript: Passing values in the print dialog box

  Hello

  I have a PDF page containg 8 pages. There is a button on the first page, print then on some boxes (Page1, Page2... Page8)

  I want to open the print dialog box with already put page numbers in the selection boxes.

  Example: If I checked page 1, Page 4 boxes, print dialog box then should display values Print rang > Pages [1.4]

  How can I do this using javascript?

  Thank you

  Hi Faraz,

  That's the problem, you cannot specify a print with gaps range.

  XFA. Host.Print (1, "0", "7", 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);

  The second parameter specifies the start page (based on a system of numbering from zero). '0' will be so printed on page 1 of the form.

  The third parameter specifies the last page to print. So '7' will display the page 8 of the form.

  Here are some of the only solution I can think. Basically, the button opens the test set up dialogue (not the standard print window). This allows the user to select the right printer and settings. Then, the script looks like each page in turn and prints is as a standalone print job. If you look at the print command, you will see that the first parameter is set to '0', it is to print the page without displaying the print dialog. The fourth parameter is now on '1' to prevent the user to cancel the print job. If you look at the help file, you will get a complete description of the print command and all eight parameters.

  xfa.host.print(0, "0", "0", 1, 1, 0, 0, 0);
  

  Hope that helps,

• I can't and never been able to open a file that was previously saved on hard disk by selecting the print option to get in the print dialog box

  I can not and never been able to open a file that was previously saved on hard disk by selecting the print option to get in the print dialog box. Firefox displays gooblygook, even if the name of file is an html element, the Notepad of Windows crashes, MS Excel does not recognize the file type. MS Word also displays goobblys when the file has no file extension.

  If you use the file printing, then you will get a file that is supposed to be sent to a printer, and this file has any sort of code formatting for this printer.

  Open such a file in Firefox or a text editor can only work if you use one printer for text to print the file to, then make sure that such a printer is installed and selected.

• CC of Photoshop crashes in the print dialog box.

  Photoshop CC2015 crashed in the print dialog box. I use 10 64-bit and Windows printing via a TCP/IP port to a printer Xerox 700i Protocol. The dialog box is very slow to react to clicks, and most of the time that it blocks just close photoshop.

  The driver is blocked due to a bug in the driver code.

  Most other applications use the same APIs of modern printing such as Photoshop and so use code different in the driver.

  The manufacturer of your printer should know this and need to debug the problem instead of blaming the software from third-party manufacturers.

  Experience more, you can try: hold down the space bar while you select print in Photoshop. That make Photoshop will not load the last used settings of the printer, which is something that we have seen the cause crashes in some drivers (different causes of crash, but apparently this code path doesn't get tested).

• API to open the page dialog box

  Hi all

  I there any Apex API to open the Page dialog box in V5.0.

  I used apex.navigation.dialog, but it gives an error when loading the page.

  Please suggest.

  Concerning

  Rupesh Gupta

  Apex.navigation.dialog from code using JavaScript is not often necessary, but there are cases where it is necessary and it can be done. The tricky part is that the URL should be generated by the server as PREPARE_URL. The general idea is to extract the url from the rest of the javascript code that is generated. This can be done on the server or the client.

  I have an example of using apex.navigation.dialog in my blog on the custom menus

  http://hardlikesoftware.com/weblog/2015/07/13/Apex-5-0-custom-menus/

  Regarding the example code above, I never recommend using eval and it is better to use the apex.server API (or DA) than the old htmldb_Get. You can return to the server to have it prepare the URL using ajax, but wherever possible it is best to have the server generate the URL when the page is loaded. If you do not use ajax have the server split the URL you can call apex.navigation.dialog and not eval.

  It would be really nice if in the future PREPARE_URL had an option to return to the dialogue page URL or the URL and strings but also separate options. Or it could be a different utility API.

• I am trying to print a picture 5 x 7 that have been saved in PDF format, the print dialog box will only print it as an 8 x 10, any thoughts?

  So I guess that was supposed to be the subject line!  I would like to print a picture on paper photo 5 x 7, I did it in the past, but now I don't see an option to change the size of the paper.  I would greatly appreciate any comments.  Thank you

  Hi Sunshine58,

  Have you tried to click on the Page Setup button at the bottom left of the print dialog box? Who will show you the print options that provides the operating system, and you should be able to choose the page size of 5 x 7.

  Best,

• Why Firefox tries to open the PDF with Acrobat 8 when I set properties using Reader 9.1?

  If I click on a link in a PDF file from Firefox 3.6.10 he's trying to open it with Acrobat 8 and breaks down, while if I double-click on a folder it opens properly with Reader 9.1

  If I try to open with Acrobat 8 for the record, he does not either, but why Firefox does not use the default program?

  Go to tools | Options | Applications. The first 4 entries focus on Adobe. Make sure that the association is your version 9.1. If this is not the case, click on the association that shows. You will get a triangle pointing downwards to the right. Click it, and then check if 9.1 is displayed. If so, select it. Do the same for the other elements of Adobe.

  You can also check the "Folder Options" in the control panel. In the tab "File Types", you will find all file extensions and the programs with which they are associated. Scroll to the PDF extension and make sure that it is associated with a "Document of Adobe Acrobat. If this is not the case, click the < button > and find adobe in the programs list.

  Just to let you know, Adobe Reader is now up to version 9.4. You can go to the Adobe website to download the latest version.

• RightFax Print Option - does not open the Fax dialog box

  Currently using Word 2003 with RightFax 9.3.  Word and RightFax are offered through Citrix.  When choosing, file, print and by selecting the printer RightFax the fax dialog box is not open to allow the user to enter the recipient, fax number, etc..  The document goes through the server, but cannot be sent because there is no reference to a fax number.

  Any suggestions?  (could not get Open Text support).

  Hello

  You should maybe contact your system administrator and check with them. Also, follow the link that gives suggestions for updating the RightFax feature.

• Help open the levels dialog box and save the entered settings.

  Hey,.

  I'm trying to work out how to save the applied middle, whitepoint ect to a variable after the levels dialog box was called from javascript?

  I am writing a script that allows you to adjust the levels on a single image, and then I have to repeatedly apply these settings on a batch of images specified.

  Is this possible? I figured out how to open and apply the levels but not to save the entered settings.

  Any help would be appreciated!

  I use photoshop cs6 on a mac.

  Thank you

  Mark

  Sorry Paul, but I think that you're wrong. The 'adjustment' list should have descriptions for each channel that has been set by the user. These descriptors must have the key for the channel as a referencetype, b/w in a list entry points, exit points black and white as a list and as a double gamma. I think that if these aren't in the descriptor, it is because the user has not changed the default values.

  But what if all you want to do is reapply the same settings later that you don't really need to know what setting were. You simply store the descriptor that contains for later use.

  function newLevels() {
  var desc2 = new ActionDescriptor();
  var ref1 = new ActionReference();
  ref1.putClass( charIDToTypeID('AdjL') );
  desc2.putReference( charIDToTypeID('null'), ref1 );
  var desc3 = new ActionDescriptor();
  var desc4 = new ActionDescriptor();
  desc4.putEnumerated( stringIDToTypeID('presetKind'), stringIDToTypeID('presetKindType'), stringIDToTypeID('presetKindDefault') );
  desc3.putObject( charIDToTypeID('Type'), charIDToTypeID('Lvls'), desc4 );
  desc2.putObject( charIDToTypeID('Usng'), charIDToTypeID('AdjL'), desc3 );
  return executeAction( charIDToTypeID('Mk  '), desc2, DialogModes.ALL );
  };
  // store the descriptor holding the users values for later
  var newLevelsDesc = newLevels();
  // do something else like open another image
  // then when needed make a new adjustment layer using those settings
  executeAction( charIDToTypeID('Mk  '), newLevelsDesc, DialogModes.NO );
