Are the PDF's that Pages exports in CMYK or RBG?

Occasionally I have problems when sending PDF's created in Pages to an online printer such as Uprinting.com or Gotprint.com. The frustrating part is that it seems to be random. Most of the time the files print just fine. My most recent problem was an order of business cards through GotPrint.com. The colors were way off there were some weird gray boxes around one of the logos and even one of the text boxes - as if the boxes weren't set to be transparent - which they were. Any suggestions?

> The colors were way off. There were some weird gray boxes around one of the logos and even one of the text boxes - as if the boxes weren't set to be transparent - which they were. Any suggestions?
Answer:
1. The colours were way off because the print service did not provide you with the ICC profile for the printing condition.
2. The system graphics service detected that you used transparency. Therefore, the system set the PDF version to 1.4 where device independent transparency operators are supported. The print service did not detect that your PDF was version 1.4 and processed it as version 1.3 which has no support for device independent transparency operators.
There are three problems here:
a. Apple does not clearly and concisely state that rendering transparency requires a RIP Raster Image Processor that has a frontend for PDF 1.4 or higher (inside a RIP there is a conversion from PDF at the frontend to PostScript at the backend).
b. The print service does not correctly detect PDF 1.4 and does not describe either the ICC profile(s) for its printing condition(s) or the rendering requirements for its printing condition(s) including resolution.
c. You did not know that in order to manually render device-independent transparency into a device-dependent representation, you need to use the Apple ColorSync Utility (which is the system ICC service for colour matching) in combination with system level transparency flattening.

The PDF files that I export to an iOS app won't read in VoiceOver

Export works fine from InDesign for a 10 page file and the file displays on the iPad. Interface for the app reads in VoiceOver but it will not read the text of the PDF. Bookmarks were enabled in the settings in the DPS. At the moment it does not look like a robust feature of the application and the lack of control over the PDF driver settings is frustrating.
Any ideas on how to get them working?

Thanks Neil. Do you know if there is a timeline on when it will be supported? We need to make a decision on how we will provide the digital files as we are required under our Disability Discrimination Act in Australia to provide accessible content.

The pdf file that i am converting has multiple pages but the conversion only exports the 1st page into excel. How do i get the product to include all pages on multiple sheets?

Hi,
The pdf file that I am converting has multiple pages but the conversion only exports the 1st page into excel. How do i get the product to include all pages on multiple sheets?

Hi christinek,
Can you please tell me how the PDF that you're converting was created? Sometimes, PDF files created by third-party PDF generators (that is non-Adobe applications), don't contain all the tags and file information necessary to ensure a proper conversion to Excel. There are no settings that you can change in ExportPDF to adjust how the file is imported.
You can tell how the PDF was created by choosing File > Properties in Reader and looking for the PDF Producer on the Description tab. If the PDF was created by a third-party, it just may not be written to spec. Please see Support Policy for PDF Files created by non Adobe applications.
Best,
Sara

Once printed how do you fold a pdf so that pages are in reading order?

Once printed how do you fold a pdf so that pages are in reading order?

I think I'm not following you. In my opinion, PDFs can't be folded; and whether pages are in reading order or not cannot be changed by the free Reader.

I have created PDF from hardcopy by using my scanner. After I run OCR option for my PDF by using Acrobat Pro 9. But "Text-to-speech" functionality of the PDF says that an error message comes up that says the page is empty when I turns on the read out loud

I have created PDF from hardcopy by using my scanner. After I run OCR option for my PDF by using Acrobat Pro 9. But "Text-to-speech" functionality of the PDF says that an error message comes up that says the page is empty when I turns on the read out loud option in Acrobat. Kindly help me to sortout this problems?

So I tried generating the same PDFs on two other computers that have Acrobat 9 Pro. Results were reproduced. The verdict is:
- complex PDF files (that is, containing cross-references, tables of contents, and bookmarks) generated by Acrobat 9.x Pro are roughly 2-5x larger than the identical file generated with Acrobat 8.x Pro.
- different PDF conversion settings make a negligable difference (less than 10% rather than 70-80%).
- using the "Reduce File Size" or "Optimize PDF" option cuts the file size roughly in half, almost always resulting in a "image downsampling mask" warning message, which requires acknowledgement (that is a problem for batch processing or automation).
- adding an Acrobat watermark to the file cuts the file size roughly in half.
- just using Save As to another filename has no effect on file size.
- generating the PDF in Acrobat 9 with links but no PDF bookmarks still results in the inflated file size.
- generating the PDF in Acrobat 9 without any links or bookmarks results in approximately the same file size as the Acrobat 8 PDF with full links and bookmarks.
It appears that Acrobat 9's manner of adding links is what's bloating the files, and in my case it's probably not related to images or image resolution/print quality. It's a shame, because Acrobat 9 seems to have made some improvements to the Review Tracker interface, and a few other bells and whistles which I haven't really gotten around to exporing yet. But unless I find a way to keep my links and the PDF file sizes comparable to what I was getting with Acrobat 8 Pro, it looks like I'm going to stay with Acrobat 8.

I am not able to open the pdf attachments that someone sent me it comes up with a gray box saying adobe cannot open?

Make sure the pdf has the '.pdf' extension on the file name. I've seen this a few times and adding the extension usually solves the problem.

I don't appear to have a toolbar either.

What are the different messages that OCOD may return for a web service requ

Hi,
Please give me feedback on the questions below, concerning the limitations of web service, and messages which may return.
1) What are the different messages that OCOD may return for a web service request? I need all the messages of all the scenarios which OCOD can meet, for example:
- If the file is rejected (Error message)
- If the file is accepted (to clarify that the records have been created)
- if the application is unavailable (maintenance or web service is down)
2) How many request can we send simultaneously, and how many records we can make per second?
Best Regard,

Is there a way to sort a PDF file with multiple pages by a specific field within the PDF? All pages have the same invoice format and i would like to sort by a field within and then print the documents. (Vendor, PO#, Date, ect.)

When you say field, do you mean specifically a form field, such as a text field? Or is the information regular text on the page?

What are the essential services that are required for ensuring server is healthy up ?

Hi All,
Please advise me What are the essential services that are required for ensuring server is healthy up ?
Warm regards,
jk1510

The easiest way to find the Health report of server or workstation follow the below steps which is very much easiest way to get it done
There are a few ways to find this in Windows Server 2008.
First click “Start” and type “Generate a system health report”
Or second navigate your way to the Control Panel choose “System and Security” and choose “Generate a system health report”.
The last is to type “Generate a system health report” into the “Search Control Panel” box in the upper right hand corner of the Control Panel window.
Once armed with this data it’s easier to refute or acknowledge an issue is at hand.
BTW if you’re looking for this same thing in Windows 7 it’s there just buried a bit more.
Search Performance in the Start Menu, choose “Performance Information and Tools”, click “Advanced Tools” from the menu on the left, and finally choose “Generate a system
health report”.
