I needed to re-use an existing pdf (for a business card, with bleeds and marks), which was last saved with AI CS6. So, in order to get the filename in the "new" pdf to reflect the new use, I opened in in Illustrator CS6, and just re-saved with the new filename. Now my 1-page pdf suddenly has 4 pages; pages 1 and 2 look like they should, but pages 3 and 4 don't have bleeds showing.! What???
I used a custom in-house joboptions file for the settings; this joboptions file did start in InDesign, but has never caused problems before, and I have used it often in Illustrator. I just deleted the extra/new pages, and proceeded, but I am confounded by this.
I am using IV 2010. After creating a sheetmetal ipart my part grows slightly between each variance.
When toggling between the different parts IV says that they need updated. I have updated them but if I toggle back after updating the other parts IV wants me to update again and it creates a circle of updating. Does this mean that making a sheet metal i part is a half baked idea? Right now the way the program is responding to sheet metal iparts it would appear that you either cannot have a flat pattern or you part cannot lengthen or shorten the different variances with keeping the flat pattern. It would appear that all is well with part with exception of this updating problem. How to eliminate IV from asking to update in between variances while keeping the flat pattern? Also I am using sheet metal extens add in.
I want to put 2 .pdf pages on one page. I used to do it with Illustrator (CS5) and it worked just fine up until now, but now (when I import .pdfs) Illustrator gives prompts like:
"The font Arial is missing. Affected text will be displayed ..."
Is there any way of eliminating such prompts with those .pdfs?
Carlos, you created a script i believe called AI_openMultiPagePDF.However i was wondering if you could change it just a bit and instead of opening the files, could you use the PLACE command instead?
The problem i have had is that some PDF's have embedde fonts that i dont have but if i place it, then flatten transparency>Convert Outlines i can use the PDF excatly as it was and not have it convert the fonts.
I didn't try opening a ridiculous amount of pages, I "only" open 35 pages....in about a minute and a half. Use with caution, save everything before running, script is memory intensive...

I am designing the layout for a 8.5" x 8.5" children's book to be uploaded to an online publisher, and they require a .25" bleed around all the outside edges, except for a no ink area of .125" on the bind side. The document must be set up for single pages rather than spread. The document must be saved as postscript so I can create the pdf using Distiller (per the printer). How do I accomodate a different set of bleeds for facing (even/odd) pages within one Illustrator document?
Here are the guidlines I was given (this is the only image): [IMG] [URL] [/IMG]
Is this even possible? Or will I need to use InDesign? The document is already setup in Illustrator with an individual artboard for each page, and I'd rather not go through the hassle of transferring it all to InDesign. If I must, though, what is the best option for setting it up as an InDesign document, and how can I adjust these bleeds accordingly while retaining a singlepage pdf for saving as postscript?
I work on Mac and would like to print a design over multiple pages. The recurring problem however is that the printed sheets have a thin unprinted, blank border. I've tried various options in the print dialogue box, including all the borderless page setup options. This 2mm border keeps appearing in my prints. This is for silkscreening, so even though its only a 2mm border, this gap prevents me from putting all the printed sheets together as one design. The design, via the print dialogue box, is being saved as a PostScript file due to doing colour separations.
is it possble to arrange artboards in Illustrator CS6 so page 1 is on its own and pages 2 and 3 (and 4 and 5 etc) are facing each other as they would be in a printed book. In other words the same way as in InDesign?
I am creating a poster in A1 format. My printer can only print up to A4, so I would like to break up my poster into 8 A4 pages to print a preview before sending the doc off to the printer.
When I export a CorelDraw file with multiple pages to an .ai file, the resulting file has only the first page. Is there a way to export all pages of the document to .ai?
I'm making a book with large full bleed illustrations on each page.For ease of use I would like to use regular photoshop fonts. If I flatten and save my pages as Tiff files will it be the same as outlining fonts in Illustrator? In other words I won't have to include fonts. I am then going to drop the pages in InDesign in correctly paginated spreads to staple in the middle.
I hav desigend a form in photoshop and saved it as a PDF. The trouble is it should be two pages. HOw can I get the form to save as two page PDF file. Rather than the one page it is defaulting to?
I have some 18 pages in an brochure design CDR file. in that only 15 pages are the printable and other 3 pages i have to Hide without deleting. it should not be published in PDF/Service Bureau.
I work in a trophy shop running laser engravers. I'm looking for a macro that would select everything on a page, flip it vertically, and do so throughout a multi-page document - I just had to do that manually for an order of 236 acrylics (all in one multi-page file!) and it - well - was a bit tedious I can make a macro to select all and flip - but I'm lost when it comes to getting it done throughout a file, I can only get it to do that a page at a time.
have the brochure open and the cover peal back and show the backside of the page and the follow page.
I can create each section without background--put one page on top--flip the other(back side)--can peal the back forward and type is in correct position--can peal the front. Cant get them to peal together.
How to I make the two photos become a unit. and as I peal the front cover back--the back of the 1st page begins to show.
I am trying to help a group insert low resolution pictures into Pdf pages that have been created by ColdFusion, so that the pages open faster. What settings would be suggested so the Pdf pages are attractive and the pages open up fast?
I am using CS2 for creating web pages and Ive run across a little problem. I cant figure out how to "save for web" so that my *.jpg will be stretched across the web browser when people view it. When I view my *.html after "save for web" it places the *.jpg in the top left corner of the page. I can use Dreamweaver to center my image, but it still looks out of place. Ive seen photoshop created pages stretched to resize with the web browser window;
I sliced my buttons and moved over to Image Ready, there I did the rollovers for each button and saved each page as html and images. When I previewed in browser only my home button would work, none of the others. I need the other pages to open up from the home page.
does the new xarapro have a linked feature for placing 300 dpi images into a 50-60 pages? If not, is it even possible to have that many pages with those numbers of large size pictures? Just wanted to know if others have done such a thing. Also if possible, can a large document be divided into number of xara files and then exported as pdf and put together in adobe acrobat to make a large output for printers?
I was wondering if there was a way to create several different pages in one GIMP file. I am trying to create a magazine (for work) and I'd like to be able to keep each page in one file. That way I'd be able to save it all together and use my PDF printer to convert the file when I'm done.
Is this possible? I know I can do it in Microsoft Publisher, but I'd rather use GIMP for this project.
I produced a 4 page A5 brochure in InDesign. I would like to present my brochure as a mock-up. Should I use photoshop? Should I save the 4 pages as JPGs then place into Photoshop?
I've been using Photoshop to create a series of web pages. I have about 20 such pages right now.Unfortunately, I need to change the navigation menu that is found on all 20 pages.
To make these changes, do I need to change 20 different files? Or is there a way to link one layer group to multiple PSD files so that editing it once results in it changing on all 20 pages?
Everything I try to print from Photoshop to my Epson Stylus Pro 3880 just prints a blank page.
It sounds like it's printing, i.e. the printer head moves up and down across the paper, however no ink is depositied on to the page. Ink levels are fine.
I can print fine from other applications; it's only Photoshop that's causing a problem.
This is on a Mac running OS X 10.6.8, Photoshop 12.0 x64. I have tried upgrading the printer driver to the latest version: 9.04.
I have also tried totally removing the driver and reinstalling it, and have tried reinstalling Photoshop.
