Distiller won't convert PS file to PDF

Hi!
I have problem with making PS into PDF via Distiller9.
I have made with LEd (LaTeX editor) a file which contains .swf flash animation, but also .eps pictures. This wouldn't be a problem if LEd could compile a PDF that has pictures in it, but it won't. I have to create .ps file and then from .ps -> .pdf via distiller. And that works with pictures, but now I'm getting this error:
%%[ Error: undefinedfilename; OffendingCommand: file ]%%
Stack:
(r)
(Gibbs.swf)
{fstream1}
-mark-
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
Is it possible to make it work somehow? Is there some kind of fix or settings I need to adjust?
I'm working on Windows7, and besides that, I have no other problems...
If someone can help I'd appreciate it...
Thanks!!

That's weird... Everything is in the same folder... Ah, never mind, I have found the solution in the meantime Like with dvips, I have command (which I didn't know I had ) ps2pdf... And everything works there...

  • Acrobat Distiller unable to convert the files to PDF.

    Sometimes when I provide multiple files to Adobe Acrobat Distiller to convert them to PDF it opens multiple instances of it which can be seen in the Task Manager but the conversion to PDF stops. The version of Acrobat is 6.0. Could you please suggest me some solution to this issue and it would be better if you also provide me the how acrobat distiller works.

    Yes the Distiller is on server so it keeps on running and we see multiple instances of distiller in task manager.
    When we add files with intervals or few files then it works fine but when we provide bulk of files it stops converting them to PDF and when we check the task manager we find multiple instances of distiller running.
    Then we manually kill the process and then againg the PDF conversion starts normally.

    I used to use the free version of Adobe Reader to convert my publisher files to pdf files. When I was making a booklet for our hockey team, it said I had to buy it. Now I bought it and it won't convert the files. I am ready to throw this computer out the window!! Can you tell me what is the problem? No it does not exceed 100 M. either.

    Adobe Reader never converted Publisher files to PDF, for free, never. I suspect you use to have the (paid for) Adobe Acrobat. Sometimes people have Acrobat (more than $300 worth) and install Adobe Reader over the top, losing that valuable software.
    That said, if you subscribed to PDF Pack it should do this conversion. What exactly happens now.

  • I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack but it won't allow me to convert any files to pdf or combine multiple files to into 1 pdf form. It keeps saying "Error occurred while trying to access the file". WHY

    I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack for $7.50/month (or $89.99/yr) but it won't allow me to convert any files to pdf or combine multiple files into 1 pdf form. It keeps saying "An error occurred while trying to access the service". WHY is this happening & How can I fix it?

    Hi hpmg,
    It seems you are trying to access the service via Adobe Reader. Make sure you are signed in with your Adobe ID. Is Reader updated to the latest patch v 11.0.09?
    It might be possible that a firewall or antivirus might be breaking the connectivity from Reader to the server.
    Try accessing the service from the browser: https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf  and check if that works for you.

  • Convert txt file to pdf using Acrobat Distiller

    Hi,
    We purchase years ago Distiller 8.1.0.
    Now, I try to convert txt file to pdf files, but I always get an error.
    Please Help,
    Hezi

    I have important information: Acrobat is not licensed for use server side, so you must not use it to build that solution, even if it is technically possible.
    Adobe's server side PDF creation product is LiveCycle PDF Generator https://www.adobe.com/sea/products/server/pdfgenerator/
    This comes in three editions. The "PostScript" edition is little more than a server-side version of Distiller, and will not convert TXT. However, the other two editions can convert a wide variety of formats.

  • Unable to convert text file to PDF

    Hi,
    Using Adobe Pro 9 Distiller on Windows 2008 64bit server. So far using Distiller to convert .eps files to .pdf with Standard job options file. I need to convert a .txt file to .pdf and am not able to convert using any of the OOTB job options settings that came with Distiller product installation.
    Below is the Distiller output when I tried with Standard job options settings
    %%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: MBLDxxxx-03.rpt ]%%
    %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
    %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
    Can anyone please provide me settings or job options file settings to convert reports in text format to PDF? Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the quick response. I was able to generate the PDF using the Adobe PDF writer by opening the text file. Not an issue on 64 bit platform. The .NET application using Distiller to convert eps to PDF via Distiller and moves it over to a watch folder. Another application picks it up and bursts the large PDF to individual PDFs. I need to automatically convert txt to PDF and submit it for burst. Looking for ways to leverage Distiller to automatically convert the txt to PDF. Is it possible? Thanks.

  • Error: EXOpenExport() while converting xlsb file to PDF

    I am getting this error while converting .XLSB file to PDF using IBR :Step PDFExport forced conversion failure by conversion engine because of error: EXOpenExport() failed: no filter available for this file type (0x0004). Can anyone tell me how to resolve this issue.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you for all your intrest.
    The error message I get is... "an unexpected error occured. PDFMaker was unable to process the request".
    When I then try to convert again, the system opens the ppt, but then does not do anything, and the error message does not show, for all presentations I try to convert.
    I have also tried using the ribbon, but the button does not do anything once I have clicked.
    I can print to PDF, but this provides an output which is not suitable, because it shows as if it each slide was printed on to paper and then put in PDF.
    I have also uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat to make sure nothing was corrupt.

  • When I converted a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text.  How can I solve this problem?

    When I tried to convert a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text.  How do I solve this problem?  I don't know how to change it from Read Only.

    Dear Sara
    Thank you very much for sending the converted file.  Yes, I am able to edit it - that will be very useful to me and I appreciate your help.
    Referring to your previous message when you said you'd converted via Acrobat and not Acrobat.com, I'm converting via Acrobat.com because that's the only option that is shown (how do I convert via Acrobat? - perhaps that would be more successful).  I'm using the Export PDF website, and the OCR is enabled to "Recognize text in English UK".  However, I've just tried converting a different LPA pdf form, this time for Health & Welfare https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/245571/LPA114_He alth_welfare_LPA.pdf and again I have the same problem as before.  I've altered it from "Read only" and thought I'd then be able to enter text, but "Drawing Tools" is shown in the pane and I'm unable to enter anything onto the form - everything appears to be in images.  Also, the lettering on the heading of' page 1 has become jumbled, with the word "Public" overlaying the word "Guardian."  Any suggestions as to what it is I'm doing wrong would be welcome - I don't like to be beaten!
    Regards,

  • Not able to convert word file to PDF using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard

    Hi,
    I am not able to convert word file to PDF using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard. When I try to convert, it starts the process and in between I am getting this prompt, as shown in figure below and the conversion process stops. The PDF is not created.
    Note: The filename 'Acr85.doc' in the above prompt keeps changing and is random.
    I tried clicking Yes, No and Cancel on the above prompt, but the conversion process just stops and PDF is not getting generated.
    I am able to create PDFs from web pages. No issues with that. Not working only with Word.
    Can someone help me with this.
    Thanks,

    In MSWord please changes the settings as "Adobe PDF" menu => "Change Conversion Settings" goto Tab Bookmark and clicks the option Convert Word Bookmarks. Now you convert the Doc to PDF you can achieve the Bookmark.
    Hope this help you

  • Acrobat XI Pro successfully installed, but it failed in converting word files into PDF, why?

    I just installed Adobe XI Pro through the download assistant, it looks the installation went well, but when I tried to convert word files into PDF (tried many times), it failed. Anyone has the same problems, any solutions?

    Please reply with more information - what your operating system is, do you have Office installed, and what exactly is happening. Is there an error message, does the application crash, and from where are you starting the conversion (using Word and PDFMaker, using Acrobat's Create button, or batch processing).

  • How do I convert a file to PDF without subscribing?

    I just downloaded Adobe Reader X, I'm running Windows 7, When I try to convert a file to PDF I'm required to subscribe? I thought this was free? Any ideas?

    Adobe Reader is free - and it reads PDF files; it doesn't create them.
    Adobe CreatePDF and ExportPDF are online subscription services for people who don't want to buy Acrobat. There are links from inside Adobe Reader so users can find those services more easily, but functionally they're unconnected to Reader.

    Hello, 
    Thank you for your answer. I really appreciate your help, but I need to write this conversion part manually and put into my macro (which is making a lot of more stuff, and this will be one of it functionality). Do you have any idea how I can do it?
    Basically, write I wrote before it just need to open a file, and print it with "Adobe PDF" printer. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do it.  
    Hello,
    For converting xps file to pdf, if your pc installed Office, then you could consider the way shared in the following thread.

    Dim ExWB As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook = Exapp.Workbooks.Open("yourfilename")

    Hi narayanan_1983,
    This article will tell you how to convert XPS file to PDF in vb.net:
    http://www.aspose.com/docs/display/pdfnet/Convert%20XPS%20files%20to%20PDF%20format
    From this article, we know that you could use  a class named
    [{{XpsLoadOptions}}] which is used to initialize a LoadOptions object. Later, this object is passed as an argument during the
    Document object initialization and it helps the PDF rendering engine to determine the source document's input format.
    ' Instantiate LoadOption object using XPS load option
    Dim options As Aspose.Pdf.LoadOptions = New XpsLoadOptions()
    ' Create document object
    Dim document As Aspose.Pdf.Document = New Aspose.Pdf.Document("D:\source.xps", options)
    ' Save the resultant PDF document
    document.Save("D:\resultant.pdf")
    If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.
    Best regards,
