Document not showing properly when opening in Acrobat 9 Pro

When I create a document in InDesign and export it as a PDF, I want to see what it looks like as the PDF. One of the documents that I opened does not look as it should. It only has the photo on the ad but is missing the red background and the words on the ad. As a thumbnail, it looks correct. But, it is not showing up correctly when I open it in Acrobat. Some of the other ads are fine but this one in particular is not showing me all the elements. What do I do to fix this?

Yes, I have the most current version of AA9. I exported the document from InDesign using the PDF exporter. That is what I have used for years and it has worked fine. I just installed CS4 yesterday.
I think I realized what the problem is but I don't know how to fix it properly. I actually went back to the preferences in AA9 to the document color options in accessibility and changed it back to its original state (which, I believe, is where nothing is checked). I had originally changed it because I was trying to experiment with the background of the program. It's black and when I open a PDF, I can't see the black border. But I mistakenly changed the document color. Which brings me to the question of: how do you change the background color of the page so that I can see the black border on the document? I sell advertising so I need to be sure that when people send me their ads, they have black borders. And I can't tell when it has the background behind the document so dark. Acrobat Reader has a white background.
Additionally, can I still install the latest Acrobat Reader and use that instead of AA9 if I want to? It seems easier.

  • Fonts are not showing properly when opened through mail?

    When sending a PDF via email the Frutiger font does not appear properly on an iPad or iPhone. When viewed on an iPhone all the text appears as gradient boxes and when viewing on an iPad font becomes too light to be legible. Is this a problem with the font in the iOS platform? I also tried opening the file in iBooks and got the same outcome.

    Does disabling hardware acceleration have a positive effect or is it still happening?

  • CF 8 CFPDF "Merged" document throws 131 Error when opened in Acrobat

    We are using CF 8 on Windows Server 2003 platform.
    Any CFPDF "Merged" documents are throwing 131 Errors when opened in Acrobat
    Tried re-saving the documents on local machine and still same problem. Tried opening in multiple versions of Acrobat, same problem.
    Individual documents created are opening without issue. It is Only when these documents are merged that this error occurs.
    We do not experience this behavior in our CF 10 environment.
    We are a Big, Slow moving enterprise here so not much chance of getting our CF 10 environments promoted to meaningful production use soon.
    Found virtually nothing in HelpX and nothing online of any value regarding this issue.
    Has anyone else experienced the issue noted in the title of this discussion?
    Has anyone a work around or solution?

    I am getting the same error even in Acrobat version 8.1.3.
    Additionally, I noticed that if we click on menu ‘Advanced->Sign&Certify->Preview Document’, then we get a notification as “This document is not PDF/SigQ compliant and may display inconsistently”. On clicking  ‘View report’ on that notification, the below dialog pops up. It has errors listed as:-
    Code 4000 : Unrecognized PDF content. The document contains PDF content or custom content not supported by the current version of Acrobat.
    Code 4002: PDF content contains erros.
    However, if we sign the PDF using default adobe signature functionality and reopen that PDF, the error does NOT come and the notification also says ‘This document is PDF/SigQ compliant’.
    Can anybody please suggest what could be missing in the custom sign that we apply? Is it because of any of the missing fonts or any other resources?
    Awaiting reply!
    Regards.

  • Individual fonts not recognized properly when opening a MAC FLA file on PC

    I'm getting a missing font warning when opening an FLA file
    even though I have all the necessary fonts. The problem is that
    while I have MyriadPro-Bold, MyriadPro-BoldIt, MyriadPro-Semibold
    on my machine, they only show up in Flash as the Typeface names of
    Myriad Pro (first two), and Myriad Pro Light (last one).
    I don't want to have to go through an entire file and apply
    bold and italics to anywhere they exist, so I'm hoping there is a
    way to map these properly. Adobe Type Manager shows all these fonts
    properly when I open it, so I don't understand why Adobe's version
    of Flash can only see the font family and not the individual fonts.
    Hopefully someone out there has had the same problem and can
    help me figure this out.

    I know this thread is a bit old, but I wanted to share my experience and solution in case anyone else runs into this.
    The other day, I spent many hours editing some photos for a client. I saved them all and closed Photoshop. When I tried to open the .PSDs, they all came up with this "Not a valid Photoshop document" error. I was freaking out. I could see the thunmbnails and previews with the MacOS Finder and could see the images just fine in Lightroom, but couldn't open them in Photoshop CC.
    Finally, I remembered that these were NOT supposed to be .psd files! They were supposed to be TIFFs. What happened was, when I edited them from within Lightroom into Photoshop, they opened as TIFFs. However, when I did "save as", I wanted to name them similarly to some other files I had. I clicked on one of the existing files to copy the file name in the Save As dialog to make it easier to name the new file I was saving, but I didn't realize it was changing the file extention from ".tif" to ".psd" as well. The older MacOS (version 9 and earlier) didn't rely on file extensions fo identifying file types, so it didn't hit me right away that this would be the problem. When I changed the incorrect .psd file extension to .tiff, the files opened in Photoshop just fine.
    SO... if you run into this "Not a valid Photoshop document" error, try figuring out if it's actually another file type (.jpg, .tif, .png, etc) by either getting the file info from another program or just experimenting with different file extensions. Chances are good that your file isn't actually corrupt, but just named improperly!

  • Pdf document not sized properly when print is intiated from Outlook Quick Print

    I have some pdf documents that print properly (fit on printed page) when the PDF is being viewed within Adobe Reader X (10.1.4) and I initiate printing from right within Adobe Reader. However, when the same PDF is printed via Outlook's "Quick Print (with the job being routed to Adobe Reader but not initiated by Adobe Reader), the resulting PDF printout is slightly shifted and sized incorrectly.
    Any ideas as what the problem might be? We're trying to set things up so that PDFs sent to a special Outlook email address are automatically printed without user intervention.
    Thank you.

    I believe the PDF you are trying to print is "larger than A4 in size". When we explicity open Reader and print the pdf doc then it scales down the pdf page size but when you print directly from outlook then it prints as per the original size of the document.

  • Ical appears translucent in dock and will not show events when opened

    Has anyone recently experienced iCal appearing translucent in the dock? This is weird and just recently started happening. Once iCal is launched it appears normal in the dock but goes back to translucent when I quit. Our MacBook Pro is brand new just a few weeks old and all the software is up to date. Also, even weirder, suddenly the events are not showing up in the month view when launched. I can go back to December and then move to January and then they appear. I made sure that the preferences are checked to show times and that in View "show the to do list" is selected. Whenever it has been launched the calendar is blank and will only show events after view or preferences have been manipulated. Any help would be appreciated..

    kkovardfd,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Do you have any duplicate fonts? If so, make sure to resolve duplicates with Font Book.
    Remove the iCal icon from the Dock, and replace it with the iCal Application located in your Applications folder.
    Open System Preferences...>Language & Text>Formats> and set/re-set your appropriate "Region."
    After deleting the iCal plist, also delete the com.apple.Dock.plist, log out/in from your account, or restart the computer. Your Dock will revert to default appearance.

  • Field type TaxonomyFieldTypeMulti is not installed properly when opening Site columns page or saving site as template

    I have a site collection which I am moving from a SharePoint 2013 enterprise server to a SharePoint 2013 foundation server. This all seems fine apart from when I try and access the Site columns page (from Site settings) or when I save a Site as a template
    - both times I get the error: Field type TaxonomyFieldTypeMulti is not installed properly 
    If I look in the SharePoint logs I get the following:
    Unable to locate the xml-definition for FieldName with FieldId '249a1c1a-5a3e-4173-abad-779b01892510
    Any ideas?
    Many Thanks,

    I have re-done the migration from Enterprise to Foundation and now get the following error:
    Field type RatingCount is not installed properly. Go to the list settings page to delete this field.
    However I cannot go to the Site columns page as I get this error so don't see where I can delete this from? Previously I had to delete this field manually from each of the Blog sites but this time there don't
    appear to be these fields to delete - I presume because I disabled all the features relating to this premigration?
    Any ideas?
    Many thanks in advance,

  • PDF initially freezes when opening with Acrobat 9 Pro and Acrobat Reader

    Hi-
    Every time I open a pdf, either with Acrobat 9 Pro or Acrobat Reader, it freezes the application for about 10-15 seconds.  Afterwards, it's fine.
    Any suggestions?
    Im running XP Pro, 3.25GB of RAM

    Any chance you are also using Quickbooks?  I understand from Intuit that there is a known issue between  Quickbooks and Acrobat 9.  My computer does the same exact thing and I am running Quickbooks Pro 2009. Windows XP Pro 64-bit.  According to the forums on Intuit, the same problem does not exist with Acrobat 8.  So, you have to uninstall Acrobat 9 then in stall 8.  The problem is that the uninstall does not completely uninstall 9 so you can't install 8 successfully.  Apparently Adobe has an uninstaller that will remove ALL of Acrobat 9 but you have toi get it from tech Support - if you can find one that speaks English well enough to understand what the problem is and what you need. Then you need to find a copy of 8 to use.
    The problem is not in opening Acrobat.  It opens just fine.  It doesn't lock up until you open a PDF file.

  • OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 not formatting properly to PDF using Acrobat 9 Pro

    We have upgraded to OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 and are using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. With Version 10 I was able to format reports that, when printed to PDF, maintained the report format such as repeating the column headings, font style and size, number of rows per page and column width. With this new version the only thing I can control appears to be the column width. No other format styles are recognized. I've tried custom CSS Style settings as well setting everything individually but to no avail. Any thoughts?

  • SWF not working properly when sent to acrobat

    I am trying to place a simple swf file in a layout but Acrobat refuses to display it at the correct size. It shows me the correct dimensions in the import dialog, but then seems to ignore them. The final placed object comes in at 320x240 no matter what.
    As for where the SWF is coming from, how it was made etc, I have tried multiple methods for making this work. Here's the list:
    1. Created an MSO in Indesign, exported the mso element as a SWF and replaced the swf in the document. FAIL - Transparency breaks and the size is wrong
    2. Retried about 5 versions of the about with opaque background and various sizes. FAIL - same problems
    3. Built the SWF in Flash Catalyst, placed in InDesign FAIL - same problems
    4. Used Catalyst swf, place directly in Acrobat 10. Import works, transparency works...FAIL - always resized to 320x240
    I am using Indesign CS5 and Acrobat 10 on Mac OS X 10.6.6
    I could really use some help here. I placed this same note in the acrobat forums, because I am getting pretty desperate here. I am supposed to deliver the final client file for this project today and this represents one of the key showcase elements!
    Thanks.

    Ok. So after reading through a pile of forum posts and blogs I believe I may have my answer. Though I can't say I like it much.
    It seems that Acrobat does not render video/swf pixels at 1:1 (See This Forum Comment) and the disparity causes the image to appear distorted. The only fix I have really seen so far is to play with the zoom level in acrobat until the image comes into focus. A point that is different on every screen.
    Here are some of the posts I found most helpful:

    http://forums.adobe.com/message/3411262#3411262
    I still want to think that there has to be a way to force a 1:1 pixel ratio, but I have not seen any solutions for doing so. There was a suggestion regarding setting the flash stage to NO_SCALE, but I am not entirely sure what the suggested implementation involves.
    I would still love to hear ideas on how to create a better solution to this, but for now I suppose I will have to live with it as is.

    Hi,
    From the description, when you reply/forward an email, the signature appears under the quoted email, am I correct?
    Have you tried open Outlook in safe mode and test again? Press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
    outlook /safe and press Enter.
    In addition, please try recreating the signature and test again.
    Please let me know the result.

    Hey,
    You might try deleting all processes related to Acrobat from the Task Manager and then launch Acrobat again.
    Also, please repairing Acrobat from the Help menu.
    If still you get the same error, then press (Windows+Run) and type "REGEDIT"
    Go to "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\acrobat\shell\open\ddeexec\application" and tell me if the given key is AcroViewA10 or AcroViewR10.
