Create PDF button gone from Excel worksheet

Recently had to restore computer back to factory. I installed full CS4 WebSuite which includes Acrobat. I used to have a PDF button in Excel that would let me create a PDF from an Excel worksheet. How do I get that back? I used to use Office 2003 and now I use Office 2013.
Thanks so much in advance!

The store is at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/buying-guide-upgrade-pricing.html. If you click the upgrade option, you will see the option to upgrade to AA XI from the AA X Suite (whatever that is, I assume CS) or from individual products. In your case it is not an individual product, but a suite. If you have questions or want to see if you can get a deal, you will have to call the Adobe sales folks. We can only repeat what we see and have heard from others (except for those folks who have the suite).
You can still print to the Adobe PDF printer from Excel 2013, if you can get AA9 to work on Win8 (an outside chance, but may require some workarounds). You would just not get links or bookmarks. You might see if there is a MS plugin for creating PDFs from Excel. If there is, you might be able to create the PDFs that way and edit in Acrobat 9.

Acrobat 9.0 Standard. Setting PDF file password from Excel VBA

Acrobat 9.0 Standard. Setting PDF file password from Excel VBA
Hi: I am trying to find a call to set the password of a PDF file that I am creating from Excel Workbook using a VBA call.
I basically have this Excel VBA code that works fine and creates a file.
            pBook.PrintOut Copies:=1, preview:=False, ActivePrinter:="Adobe PDF", _
                           PrintToFile:=True, collate:=True, PrToFileName:=PSFileName
            ' Convert the postscript file to .pdf
            Dim myPDF As PdfDistiller
            Set myPDF = New PdfDistiller
            myPDF.FileToPDF PSFileName, "", ""
BUT, I need to set the password on this PDF file and do not see an option to do so.
Can you provide a solution for this situation? Appreciate your response in advance.
Thanks.

There is no way to set password programmatically using any other dll or any other kit?
I am creating a bunch of PDF files for users programmatically but then they have to go in and set password themselves? This is very inconvenient for users.

Creating PDF with stylesheet from my website

How do I create a PDF directly from my website using a specially-styled page?
Joomla does it and I'm wondering how I can do the same thing. It's similar to a printer-friendly version. But when you click the "create PDF button", it asks you where to save and then creates the file.
Any ideas?

Here's what I did ....
I was rather dismayed that I couldn't use the features that were with QuickTime 7.6.3 so I got brave and took it out of the utilities folder where it was placed when I installed Snow Leopard. I then went into my Time Machine Backups, went to my computers saved library in the SYSTEM FOLDER copied ALL of the components, then pasted them into my HOME library in the new version of installed Leopard Files. When I open up QuickTime 7, I now have access to the two preference areas in the finder, one that now shows my previous registration code, and the other general app preferences. I was also able to convert files from one format to another like before. I haven't used this extensively, so I can't vouch that I might fall prey to some form of future conflict. But, hey, it's worth trying! You can also just go to downloads from apple and get Quicktime 7 and put it back into your utilities folder.

Hyperlink text not complete when using Create PDF button in Word

Hello -
I have Adobe Professional 9, and Microsoft office 2007. I'm trying to convert a word doc to a pdf using the Create PDF button but the resulting pdf always has incomplete hyperlinks. For instance, where it should say http://www.adobe.com, the output pdf will have : //www.adobe.com
When I hover over the link, the pop up label has the entire URL, and the links work, but I want the entire text to show. I've tried doing a repair with the install disc for adobe, but that didn't help. I've already checked the settings to ensure the Add Hyperlinks option is checked. I just did a complete uninstall/reinstall of all my Microsoft Office products and installed the service pack. I don't have this problem when I use the Create PDF button on my desktop computer, only when I use my laptop (Dell M4300). Any other suggestions?

I don't have my WORD 2007 on this machine. However, are you sure you are using the Adobe product and not the MS feature for creating the PDF? As for using PDF Maker, you should check the options/preferences in the Adobe menu. There should be a check box for conversion of links. Of course there is the question about whether the links are actually correct in WORD. The links only being partial is typical of the links not actually being transferred to the PDF, but simply Acrobat completing the link it thinks exists like WORD does.

Create double sided PDF from Excel Worksheet

Hello,
Under Vista with Excel and Acrobat 7 pro.
I have to send a PDF file to the printer but they want the job to be double-sided. From Excel, when converting to PDF, I get a one sided document.
Is there a way to create a double-sided PDF from Excel?
Thanks,
L.

I see what you are talking about now. What needs to be done is to go back to the Excel file and do it there with odd and even page formating. A PDF is simply a version of what would have been printed to paper. Acrobat is not an editor in which the margins can be easily adjusted. If you have only a few pages to do, you can use the object touchup tool to select every thing on a page and move it to the right (Edit>Select All will help and use the arrow keys to move). You might be able to move the whole document to the right, but I would have to play around to do that (don't see a way).
You may also be able to do the job with JavaScript, but in any case what you are asking is not a simple task that can be done with a trivial margin adjust. There is no such margin definition in a PDF.
You might find the use of the grid helpful in moving things so that they line up where you want.

The 'close pdf' button gone in cs 5.5

hi
I have indesign cs3 files utilising the interactive buttons and are then exported to pdf. I have upgraded to cs5.5 and the 'close pdf' button I created in cs3 no longer works. On double checking the button panel, the option for 'next page, previous page, etc' is still there but the 'close' option is gone. This means the close button on every page of the 24 page documents no longer works. These files are outputed to pdf. Why has this been removed. This is the second button option removed in the cs5.5 upgarde. We lost the email to a friend option 'attached to email' in acrobat and now functions are missing in inDesign!
Beside our clients still wanting this function, there is no way you can close a full page pdf (without menu bar) unless clicking the Esc button on your keybaord. If you are on a tablet it is then really awkard

I did that with Acrobat 10. Are you using Acrobat 8 or 9? This is a quote from Acrobat 8 help:
Select the form field that you want to duplicate.
Choose Forms > Edit Fields > Duplicate.
Note: The Duplicate command isn’t available for forms with only one page.
Do one of the following:
To duplicate the form field on every page in the form, select All, and click OK.
To duplicate the form field on a limited range of pages, click the From button, and type the start and ending pages on which you want the form field to appear.
Note: Including or not including the page on which the form field originally appears doesn’t affect the duplication process. Including that page won’t create a second copy on top of the original one, and not including it won’t remove the original form field.

Can I create a data set from Excel spreadsheet?

I have been looking for help with Spry data sets. I want to know if I can create a data set directly from an spreadsheet or do I have to save it to a CSV file first. I will be upgrading to DW CS4 shortly & trying to do my homework now.
Can someone point me to an article or video explaining how to do this? I have gone through various helps with HTML tables as data sets.
Thanks.

Yes, mostly.
We have a CSV data set, which is a comma-separated value file, which can easily be exported from Excel.

Create Pdf button

Hi,
Is it possible to develop a interactive form, which contains a button to create a new PDF document with less information on the filled data from the previous pdf form.
Is it possible to create a new PDF, with the adobe reader when working with a interactive PDF.
Following feature are needed,
is it possible to copy a part of the filled in data from orginal PDF to NEW generated PDF.
because not al the filled data should available, viewed on the new created PDF.
PS: it is in an off-line senario.
Thanks
Christophe Van Mechelen

Hi Christophe,
You cannot create a new PDF. The only thing you could do is to modify the current PDF (i.e. manipulate the underlying data).

Create PDF button in Browser?

I use the Adobe CS5 suite and Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. Is it possible to integrate this with my web browser, so I have a "Create PDF" option in my browser and save any web page as a PDF document by clicking the button?
I use Firefox and Chrome as my browsers.

fwiw,
Something like what you describe is available in MSIE (8) with Acrobat.

Creating graphs in illustrator - from Excel

Currently we're having issues with building graphs in Illustrator CS4. We drag the Excel graph from Excel to illustrator then recreate the graph ie click on the lines - make black, or another colour - fill bar graphs with other colours etc - Apple Mac 10.6.4 the programme keep crashing

Try printing to a PDF and openeing that in Illustrator. You’ll still need to clean up the blacks, but the transfer should be less crash-prone.

Creating a Button Class from MC

I have a few simple questions for those who know about
classes. I have been reading the tutorials on creating classes and
specifically extending the MC class. I am pretty sure that an
extended MC_Class might help me get what I need from my project.
I essentially have a bunch of buttons, hundreds to be exact -
and the exact number needs to be dynamic. Each one is currently a
static MC with a bunch of variables assigned to each one via global
variables. Its iis pulling in data taht assign the button values
from XML files and - these XML files may change.
Q1. If I extend the MC class so I can add attributes to MC's
instance (Avoiding global variables) - will it mess with the rest
of the movie clips in my scene? I mean if all I want to do is ad a
a few dynamic string variables - it really shouldnt effect any of
the other clips would it? MC.JumpURL = "newurl.com", MC.Thumnail
="/here/image.jpg" (This would help alot)
Q2. What if I wanted to define actions of the new MC in the
class? If the MC is an extension of the MC class. Would all of my
MC's automatically take on the actions of the custom MC Class? For
instance - I want the movieclip to animate onscreen and have
rollover effects. I could do this easy if it were static - but I
need this to become dynamic. Also - there are now unknown
quantities to deal with
Q3. How exactly would I call and assign the MC its atributes
at the same time? And how do I specify this MC to use the functions
defined in the class and not the other MC's I created elsewhere in
the File.
Example. Currently I have a grid of MCs' created when the
User clicks a menu item (Another type of MC).
Each new MC animates onstage - it calls a
loadMovie(_root.thumb[0], this.Flipper) to assign and embedded MC
an image defined in the XML that was loaded and assigned because I
placed the instance on stage and wrote a MC script on each MC.
Confused - check out what I am creating at
www.vincesidwell.com/Fischer
Click Fabrication or TurboSystems menus. Both menues will
load a new set of Thumbnails at the bottom. They are loaded via an
XML loaded by the menu and a function assigns the jpgs for the main
gallery, Rollover image, and eventually a URL for a downloadable
High Res Image.
The client recently added more than 9 images per menu item. I
will need to create a scrollable thumbnail gallery with dynamic
quantities
I can manually create the MC Scroller item for static number
of buttons. But scripting an unknown for each ones links and images
is insane. So I am looking at Classes. Assign a custom class for
the flipping buttons and I should be able to assign tthem as the
XML loads, and have it automatic. (pray please please please)
Anyhelp?
Thanks

You do not have to create a new MC class to assign local
values or functions
to it. A pseudo code example:
Loop through total buttons you want to make (which can be
number of entries
in an XML file)
Create a new movieclip and load the button graphic into
this, give it a
name like
MyButtonX, where X is an increasing number based on which
button this
is. (Instead of creating
and empty movielcip, you could also attach a movie (or
button) from
library.
Assign the values and create the functions for this button
that you
would like (probably based
on information in the XML file):
MyButtonX.someVariable = node.attribues.someData;
createOnRelease(MyButtonX, someOtherParamters)
(where you have defined the function createOnRelease to do
something
like
function createOnRelease(MC, someOtherParameteres) {
MC.onRelease = function() {
do what you want to do based on someOtherParameteres
Position and resize MyButtonX
In your example you have a 3x3 grid, which might extend to
3xTOTAL,
so you'd have to use some
mathematical formula based on the value X, something like
MyButtonX._x =
(((X-1)%3)*(buttonWidths+hSpaceBetweenButtons)
MyButtonY._y = Math.floor((X-1)/3)*(buttonHeights
+vSpaceBetweenButtons
end of loop.

If you actually create a new class, than all instances of
that class will
have the methods you define for it (just like all instances
of a movieclip
has those methods. At least, have them available. That
doesn't mean they are
always in use ... like for example the onRollOver. But again,
you don't need
to create a class to give all your dynamically created
buttons a rollover
effect. (Check code above).

You use the instance name of the MC to access that MC and its
attributes/methods. For example button number 10 might look
like this:
trace(MyButton10._x);
trace(MyButton10.someVariableYouHaveDefined);
MyButton10.callSomeFunctionYouHaveDefined();
For a movieclip to access a variable that has been defined
for that instance
of the movieclip, use "this" to point to that particular
instance. So if we
defined the function "callSomeFunctionYouHaveDefined" for
button number 10
and want to access "someVariableYouHaveDefined" for this
particular
instance, then
MyButton10.callSomeFunctionYouHaveDefined = function() {
trace(this.someVariableYouHaveDefined);

Again, no need for a class for this. If you load the buttons
into seperate
MCs, and make sure to have all these MCs created inside a
common parent MC
for these buttons (which then _only_ contains these buttons).
You can move
this parent MC up and down on the stage based on the
scrollbar. And you can
read height off this MC to create your scrollbar.
You might want to check out the following tutorials at
http://www.gotoandlearn.com/:

Creating Animated Buttons
Introduction to OOP
Now, I've said many times you don't need to make your own
class to do what
you want. That does not mean you can't make your own class. I
just think
that the main problem you are facing is the dynamic part,
which you will be
facing if you make your own class or not.

Downloaded free PDF Portfolio, no Create PDF Protfolio option from File Create

Downloaded free PDF Portfolio, instructions say to load via> File, Create, Create PDF Portfolio, there is no option for Create PDF Portfolio in my Acrobat XI

(Actually, I think this question is about Adobe Acrobat, not CreatePDF.)
Do you have Acrobat Standard? If so, I think it is a mistake that you were offered this, as portfolios are a feature of Acrobat Pro. At least, that's what I remember.
