Change Portfolio With 1 PDF To Normal PDF

Hi
I have PDFed a whole load of emails individually and they are each being treated as a portfolio.
When I try and batch print them as PDF images, an error icon about needing Adobe Acrobat/Reader 9 is created instead of the email. On the emails where the PDF is not acting as a portfolio, there is no problem printing to an image
My question is how to change PDFs that are acting as portfolios (with only one file in them) into bog standard PDFs.

Hi,
The problem I have is that I have around 1000 of these PDF portfolio emails. I need to print them all as images to a new PDF file.Each portfolio only has one PDF in it.
If I drag all the portfolio PDFs into a new portfolio and try to batch print, they all get printed with an error message about needing Acrobat or Reader 9. When I use the same process for "normal" PDFs, it works very well.
So what I want to do is remove the portfolio nature of these PDFs. Other than opening each one, dragging out the PDF and renaming it, is there another method to getting rid of the portfolio nature of the PDF?

Differences Between SAP PDF and Normal PDF Files ???

Hi,
In SAP, we are converting Delivery Outputs to PDF and getting with another win32 application using RFC.
However, PDF's taken from SAP don't work like other PDF's which Created with Adobe PDF Creator.
For Example,
I have a delphi application which converts PDF files to image files (JPEG,TIF). Normal PDF files converting normally but SAP PDF Files can't convert.
What's the differences between "SAP" PDF Files and "Adobe PDF Creator" PDF Files.
thanks
ibrahim

I believe that the converter internal to the system is based on a specific release of the adobe software, whatever was current at the time of release. In newer releases, the converter is probably upgraded to the newest release of adobe.

DPF portfolio with fillable dependable pdf forms.

Hi all!
I have pdf portfolio with some fillable pdf forms in it. This portfolio is generated via LiveCycle services.
All of these pdf forms have equivalent fields. For example: portfolio consists of pdfX, pdfY, pfdZ. And every pdf have fillable field "userName".
And it is not convenient for a user to put the same data to every pdf form.
User wants to put data only to the first one pdf. So, other pdf forms must be filled with data automatically.
And, there is one restriction: user can't send portfilio back to the server, so all automated changes must be done on the client side.
So, is there any way to solve such task?
If there is, please describe some algorithm\strategy of how this can be done.
Thank you.
PS: I'm not sure where to ask this question, so if this branch is wrong - i'm sorry.

Hi,
check this solution.

I haven't tried it with Portfolios but with forms attached to other forms and it worked like a charm.

Acrobat 9 PDF portfolios with the new version of Reader

We have a somewhat large PDF portfolio with a few hundred documents in it that was created with Acrobat 9 a few years ago. It worked great with Reader 9 and was fast, etc. Since the updates to Reader X and XI, the portfolio is sluggish and very slow to use. If I install Reader 9 back onto my system, it works great... The propblem is our IT department wont do this globally since they have identified security issues with Reader 9. Are there any fixes for this problem???

Open a pdf in a portfolio with an other programm.

Hi.
I created a pdf-portfolio with Acrobat 9 with some pdf files.
I use a tablet-pc and i want to open the single pdf's with an annotation-programm and not directly with Acrobat.
At all file-types excluding pdf i can choose the preferred application. How can i do this with a pdf?
Thanks a lot.

So, nobody has an idea ?
Juste to be more clear, I give an example :
http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf#zoom =300,200,200
Then, if you enter this url in a new tab, considering you use the adobe reader plugin to open pdf in web browser, the file will be opened with a zoom of 300, and the letf corner position will be at 200 pixels of the right, and at 200 pixels of the top.
But it doesn't work with Adobe reader 10, that's my problem...
Could someone help me with this ?
Bye

Creating a PDF Portfolio with a side menu

Hi!
Is there an easy way to create a PDF portfolio with a side menu using Acrobat X?
This was a feature in earlier versions. I am trying to make a large portfolio, and it is hard to navigate without some kind of menu.
Thanks,

Make a PDF Portfolio with Chapters work on an iPad

Hi, I have created a PDF Portfolio document for iPad. I built the document in InDesign as a Digital Publication (iPad 768x1024,vertical only). The portfolio contains a number of chapters with each chapter containing a number of pages. I’ve built navigation hyperlinks into the PDF file in Acrobat DC. The PDF Portfolio file works perfectly on desktop computers and I am able to view all chapter and pages, but when I try to open it on an iPad I just get directed to ‘download Acrobat X or Adobe Reader X, or later’. I’ve tried opening it on 3 different iPads that are all running the latest version of Acrobat DC Reader and get the same message every time.
I tried making a second version of the file without the combining the chapters into a PDF Portfolio in Acrobat DC, just running all of the pages together in a single file, with hyperlinks on the contents page and it works perfectly on the iPad. So how can I get it to work on an iPad as a Portfolio with Chapters, can you give me any advice?

Hi,
I presume that "chapters" are individual PDF documents that are contained in your PDF Portfolio.
Adobe Reader/Acrobat DC mobile apps (for iOS and Android) support the hyperlink to jump to a page view within the same PDF document or open a web page (http://... or https://...). Unfortunately, the Adobe Reader/Acrobat DC mobile apps do not support the hyperlink to open a different PDF document (regardless of whether it is included in a Portfolio or not).
Please note that most mobile PDF viewers for iOS and Android do not support Portfolios.
To make your PDF document compatible with any PDF viewers on desktop computers and mobile devices, I'd recommend the second version - "all of the pages together in a single file with hyperlinks".
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Need to Merge an Adobe XML file with a normal PDF

The problem...
I have created an order form in Adobe LiveCycle Designer (pre-ES). The customer's requirements force us to merge their purchase order (a flat standard PDF) with the order form I have created to get the complete PDF to bill with. Previously we were using a form created in another software and printing to PDF to merge the 2 PDF files. The thought process with creating a form in LiveCycle Designer was "Oh 2 PDF's we can just merge them" ... we were very WRONG. And please don't suggest "Packaging" the files... it won't work for our processing system... we've already tried .
What we know now (had we known it before we'd have never purchased the licensing for LiveCycle Designer to start with)...
You can NOT merge a PDF that has XML in it with Adobe Proffesional.
Temporary Solution...
We know we can print to PDF and then merge the files... this gets us the result we need, but it takes longer to print to PDF from these XML files than it did from the previous versions of the order forms in created in other software.
Is there another solution?
Plea for help! The users that are forced to do the process of printing to file and merging are ready to riot and/or go back to the "other" software.

Hello!
There are a couple terms you can google:
"PDF Concatenate Forms iText"
"Merge XML data with PDF Forms"
Concatenating PDFs means you join multiple forms together into one PDF.
Did you need to merge, or concatenate the forms?
Either way there are a couple of methods to do this programmably.
iTextSharp (.NET)
iText (Java)
FDFToolkit.net (.NET)
iText products are open source, and have a learning curve, and support is provided on a Open mailing list.
iText products are free ($) but can cost you time and money to research the methods.

How can I export a PDF photo portfolio with a clean cover page?

Hello,
I have compiled a photo portfolio in Bridge and wish to have a clean cover page that does not have the contact info, copyright, etc., that exists on the photo pages. The cover page was created in Ps and imported into Bridge.
From what I can see, Bridge does not allow you to add info to certain pages, it's either none or all of them - which unfortunately includes the cover page.
Any thoughts? I do like how Bridge lays out the portfolio with size of image related to size of file.
Thanks!
Jamie

Facing problem with logo in the PDF attachment when sending mail...

hi friends,
i'm facing problem with logo in the PDF attachment to the mail.
my requirement:
1. enter spool number and mail id in the selection screen.
process:
1. now the program will fetch the spool data and converts it to PDF.
2. but when i'm trying to send mail with this PDF as attachment.
when i open the PDF file from the mail, logo is not coming properly (looks disturbed).
can anyone help me how to resolve this issue...
thanks in advance, murashali.

hi dinakar, thanks for your mail...
logo looks good in spool/script/smartform.
even it look good when i download this spool to pdf and to the presentation server as pdf file.
i'm using CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF.
when i used CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF, is gives a msg - 'spool number not found'.
here i'm using folloing code to pass pdf to the function module: SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1.
code:
Transfer the 132-long strings to 255-long strings
lt_mtab_pdf[] = pdf[].
LOOP AT lt_mtab_pdf INTO lwa_mtab_pdf.
    TRANSLATE lwa_mtab_pdf USING ' ~'.
    CONCATENATE lv_gd_buffer lwa_mtab_pdf INTO lv_gd_buffer.
    CLEAR lwa_mtab_pdf.
ENDLOOP.
TRANSLATE lv_gd_buffer USING '~ '.
DO.
    lwa_mess_att = lv_gd_buffer.
    APPEND lwa_mess_att TO lt_mess_att.
    CLEAR lwa_mess_att.
    SHIFT lv_gd_buffer LEFT BY 255 PLACES.
    IF lv_gd_buffer IS INITIAL.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
ENDDO.
NOTE: problem i believe is with ''. i'm getting this tilt symbol () in my pdf internal table. here in the above code the line   TRANSLATE lv_gd_buffer USING '~ ' is changing the existing tilt to space. so my logo is getting disturbed.
even i tried with REPLACE this tilt with other char, but it doent work.
can you give any idea...

How can I change the file version for scanned PDFs to 1.4 when using the "PDF from Scanner" feature from Acrobat XI? By default it's always saved as 1.5.

Because our IT system can only handle PDFs with versions up to 1.4, we need to "PDF from scanner" feature to store the scanned PDFs in version 1.4.
Acrobat 9 always saved it in 1.4, but starting with Acrobat X, the PDFs are saved in 1.5.
There must be a setting or configuration somewhere where I can change this.
I already tried modifying the distiller's standard joboptions, but that did not work.
Thanks for any help

We use in our software an open-source pdf library that only supports pdf versions up to 1.4. I know it is old, but it's not that simple to exchange it.
But I just had a look into the Actions as you suggested. This way I get it to work. It costs one additional click, so that's acceptable.
Thanks for the support.

I am trying to change the background color of a pdf document

I am trying to change the background color of a pdf document, but am not able. I am working with Adobe X. Can anybody help me?

Hi ZAXSCD,
You can change the background color of a PDF document by following the steps mentioned below:
- Open PDF document in Adobe Acrobat X;
- Click on Tools --> Pages --> Under 'Edit Page Design' select Background and then 'Add Background';
- In Add Background window, under Source --> From color, select the color of your choice and click OK'.
You can also refer to the screenshots mentioned below:

Is it possible to change the page of a linked PDF without relinking?

Is it possible to change the page of a linked PDF without relinking and going through the import options?
I'm trying to import seveeral pages of the same PDF. The process would be quickest if I could import it once, then duplicate the image box a number of times, then just change the page number each image box is linking to.
At the moment I'm having to relink (or place), then go through Import Options, then choose the page - it's a long process that feels like it should be quicker.
Any ideas?
Thanks

The short answer is no, that's not possible, but it IS possible to import multiple pages at one time.
My favorite script for this is from Scott Zanelli: InDesignSecrets » Blog Archive » Zanelli Releases MultiPageImporter for Importing both PDF and INDD Files, but there's also a sample script included with ID.

Is there a way to print a pdf to a pdf without changing your default printer?

With the recent Adobe update (current version Adobe Pro XI Pro (1637-0001) 11.0.00), there were some changes that have caused a program my company uses to distort all or part of a pdf once it has been imported. We have found a work around. However, the work around is now becoming time consuming with the amount of files we deal with on a daily basis. Is there a way to print a pdf to a pdf without changing the default printer to the Adobe printer? (this is our work around solution).
Thanks!

For what you are trying to do, probably not. You have to open Acrobat and go to the print menu to select the Adobe PDF printer if it is not the default. The only possibility that I can think of (you will have to try it to tell if that is the case) is to drag the PDF to the Adobe PDF printer and see if it prints. This used to work, but I just tried it in Win7 and it did not do the job.
