French accents lost in pdf file

Graphic files created in Illustrator CS4, saved as pdf files, have been dropping the French accents when converted.
Any solutions anyone, other than outlining fonts before converting?

I don't know what the problem would be, but I'll throw a couple of ideas at you:
Do you think it has to do with the font you're using? Try changing the font and do a test.
Try creating the pdf from another version of Illustrator, if you have one.

  • Hi. How do i get my photos And books stored on iCloud?i have lost my pdf files during  my last sync.

    Hi. How can i get Baco my documents from iCloud? I have lost my pdf list Wikipédia sync. I solda lime to get my PDS Back that are suppose to be on iclouds?

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases (which should include PDFs in the iBooks app even though they aren't purchases) off the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases.
    On Windows 7 your backup should be stored under :
    \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    But without restoring onto a device you probably won't be able to make much sense of the backup files.
    If you want to copy off photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer

  • I have lost the app that opened and stored my PDF files

    I thought this app came preloaded. Can't remember the name (brain freeze). It opened and stored all the PDF files attached to email. The icon had the look of newsstand. Naturally I lost my PDF files as well.

    Apple's iBooks app does this, but a PDF email attachment is not automatically copied to the iBooks app when opened with the email. You must manually select "open in iBooks".
    The iBooks app can be deleted and re-downloaded from the iTunes app store and is a free app.

  • After installing Acrobat 9.4 I lost the choice to save or open a pdf file. How do I fix it?

    When using Acrobat 4.05 or 5.0 I was given a choice to open a pdf file or save the file. When I updated to Acrobat 9.4 I lost that option. It always opens the file with some different file name. If I disable the plug in Firefox does nothing. No save or open.

    You can see if you find an action in "Tools > Options > Applications" and change the setting for PDF files to always ask.

  • Lost ability to open pdf files in Safari and Flash Player upgrade is not recognized.

    Since two days ago, when I responded to a Zynga game instruction on Face Book  to upgrade to the newest version of Flash Player, I lost the ability to open the game but more importantly I can't open pdf files any more either. All pdf files  in Safari open as jibberish BUT they still work correctly in Firefox and Preview. Please help.

    Are plug-ins enabled?

    Best.

  • HT4910 i had pdf files in my ibook icon, ipluged in ipad and lost all the files?

    I had pdf files in ibooks, i pluged my ipad2 into my pc. got into itunes and i think i lost them.
    can i retreave it ??

    Thanks for letting those who come here for help know that my navigation instructions are wrong on a PC with iTunes 11. The issue though is computer independent and relates to iTunes 11.  When the device and iTunes quit syncing back and forth, there is potential for data loss. When trying to manually update, the iTunes library wants to replace the contents of the device with the library.  That is not a problem if the content is complete.  I had a situation where multiple pdf documents were added to iBooks from sources other than iTunes and were failing to sync back to iTunes.  I had a choice, let iTunes replace the contents of my device and lose my pdf's or figure out a way to get my documents off the device and add them back.  I chose the later, emailing them from iBooks to my computer.  I then synced my iTunes library to the device replacing its contents.  I added back my pdf's by dropping them into iTunes and synced.  I have not experienced the problem since. My device and iTunes are now syncing with each other properly, including wirelessly.

  • Why have my pdf files lost the Adobe pdf icon? Please help.

    Hello all.
    In transfering pdf files from my old PowerBook G4 to my new MacBook Pro, half of the pdf files now have a blank page as an icon. Also, all pdf files that I now create through print in Safari are blank. Nevertheless, all of these files open properly with Adobe Reader. This is the only type of file that lacks a proper icon. Why has the proper icon been lost & how do I solve this problem?
    Thanks for your help.

    Thank you, the problem appears to have been solved by
    rebuilding the launch services database as you
    recommended. The second solution did not work.
    Question: why do you think this problem occurred with
    a new computer straight out of the box?
    When you transfer files from another computer or over an FTP site or email, some of the info is sometimes lost. It's actually pretty rare from computer to computer but just about always happens on Internet transfers, although those mostly lose their icons.
    I'm still learning how to use this web site. I
    selected helpful without realizing I should have
    selected solved. Can I change to solved?
    I don't think so but you can make this one as solved.

  • Problem loading Image data with French accent in file name

    We have a very complex commercial application that has been working perfectly in English for over a year. We have now localized it to French and Spanish, and discovered a serious show-stopping problem. We need help fast, with the scheduled release being less than 2 weeks away...!
    We iterate over a folder to find all the images in it, then display those in a user window.  The code for loading the images is:
                for each (var name:String in filenames){
                    var image:SmoothImageTransformable = new SmoothImageTransformable();
                    var imagePath:String = dir + "/" + name;
                    image.source = imagePath;
                    trace("Adding Item to picture carousel with url " + image.source);
                    image.data = {directory:dir, filename:name};
                    image.isDragEnabled = true;
                    image.setStyle("horizontalCenter", 0);
                    image.setStyle("verticalCenter", 0);
                    _images.push(image);
    Our SmoothImageTransformable class is an internal class that inherits from Image.  This all works fine for image names like 'myFavoritePhoto', 'test', 'photo346', etc.  However, it fails to load the data if the file name is something like 'caméra'  Any name with a UTF-8 character causes the data load to fail.
    To be sure we weren't doing a load somewhere else in the code that I had overlooked, I added a "image.autoLoad = false' line in there.  That did exactly as expected -- all image squares then show a grey blank, with no image shown.  Removing that line (reverting to the original code, as shown above) causes all the images to work perfectly, except for those with French accent characters like the é.
    HELP!  Is this a known bug?  Is there some additional setting I need to make it understand the extended character set?  I can't find any mention about this at all in the documentation.

    @markerline:
    We have a fix!  Almost...   I don't understand one aspect of what I am seeing though.
    We have one test file named "camèra.jpg" that is an example of what I am unable to load into an Image.  I decided to examine the character codes at each letter, and this is what Flex has as the string:
    name = cam?ra.jpg
       [0] = c; 0x99
       [1] = a; 0x97
       [2] = m; 0x109
       [3] = ?; 0x232
       [4] = r; 0x114
       [5] = a; 0x97
       [6] = .; 0x46
       [7] = j; 0x106
       [8] = p; 0x112
       [9] = g; 0x103
    Note that the è prints as gibberish in the trace statement, and shows a numeric encoding of 0x232.  According to
         http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/web2/action/appb_01.htm
    The unicode equivalent of Latin1 for è is 0xE8, which is equivalent to 0x232. That implies that the string is already Latin1, which I would think would mean that Windoze would recognize the file name and open it properly -- but it does not.
    I then tried taking the "camèra.jpg" string, pasting it into NotePad++ in a UTF8 document, then telling NotePad++ to display as ASCII.  The result is "camèra".  I then tried just forcing the file name within Flex to this new mangled string.  The result then is:
    MAGIC name = camèra
       [0] = c; 0x99
       [1] = a; 0x97
       [2] = m; 0x109
       [3] = ?; 0x195
       [4] = ?; 0x168
       [5] = r; 0x114
       [6] = a; 0x97
       [7] = .; 0x46
       [8] = j; 0x106
       [9] = p; 0x112
      [10] = g; 0x103
    Note this time the trace statement looks proper.  More important, the IMAGE DOES LOAD!  (Our display of the name to the user now looks like crap, but that just means I need to modify our class to have a separate 'name' property, rather than extracting it from the 'image.source')
    So... my remaining question -- what encoding did I just do through that NotePad++ incantation?  That site I quoted above said that it was already Latin1, which is what I thought I was trying to get to.  I clearly need to write a method to map from incoming (UTF8 I thought, but maybe Latin1?) to Windows file system (Latin1 I thought, but maybe ASCII).
    In other words, I am not sure what charcter set to come from or go to...  It turns out the code was already in the character set I had been trying to go to (which is why it wasn't working) and the set I seem to need to go to is not the one I thought...

  • Lost pdf files after upgrading to Reader 9

    I recently upgraded to Reader 9 and now notice that a bunch of pd
    f files I had stored in verious folders in My Documents have disappered!
    Running XP Home SP3. Any ideas what happened to my pdf files??
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply. I figured it was likely unrelated to the upgrade of Reader, but a couple of possibilities still lingered in my mind:
    First, the Reader upgrade was done by my better half, and I believe she performed the upgrade in response to a sudden pop-up window prompting you for an upgrade - a commom tactic for spreading viruses. And secondly, the pdf files I lost were created by CutePDF (freeware), so the thought crossed my mind that Adobe would not mind pdf files created by competitive software to disappear...
    At this point I think the probable cause was a virus.

    Since the Reader 9 upgrade only affects the Reader 8 software and associated Windows Registry files, not documents,  it's 100% likely that this upgrade had nothing to do with the disappearing files.
    It's like filling up your gas tank and suddenly noticing that one of your tires is flat. One has no way of causing the other.
    It's cases like this that keep me telling people every day to be sure and back up important files to some external media (flash drive, CD-R, DVD-R or eve an external HD).

  • I lost all my pdfs files! I haven't sync them but I backed up my ipad. How can i get them back?

    HEllo
    AFter updating my ios and then my ibooks app, i found out that all my pdf files were gone!
    SInce i didn't synced them, but i backed up my ipad,is there a way to get them back?
    THanks for reading this.

    IN my ibooks, I have one book and a lot of pdf files. I don't mind deleting the book as it was free but I'd rather save my pdf files.
    I tried both but still, nothing appears.
    CAn you tell me how to back up one app? I know how to back up all of them. But in that case, I think you're suggesting me just to back up Ibooks...
    ANd does it matter that i haven't sync my Ibooks in itunes? I mean, I have backed up my ipad, is it enough?
    ANd is it because of my app update or my ios update? I wouldn't like to do the same mistake in the future...
    THanks so much for your quick help!

  • Why have I lost the ability to print pdf files?

    All of a sudden I can't print pdf files.  The print screen shows a blank file and it prints blank, of course.

    This doesn't sound like it is a FornsCentral issue unless you have this problem only with PDF generated from FormsCentral.
    Let me know if that is the case. Otherwise you should ask your question on the Acrobat or Reader forum

  • Acrobat 9 PDF files lost when importing a PST file in Office Mac 2011

    When one imports an MS Outlook data file created in either Outllok 2007 or 2010 (a PST file) into Outlook for Mac 2011, PDF's made in Acrobat 7  or earlier are imported as are those made on a Mac.
    However, any PDF file attachment made in Acrobat 9 is removed (not imported) into Outlook 2011 for Mac.
    If anyone has any great thoughst on this, they would be welcomed as I have given up after 20 hours of work and research. In the absence of any 'fix', l may have to set up a temporary  MS Exchange account and export to a server and back again.
    Thanks in advance!

    1. It might be the difference between the Home and Student versions and the Home and Business versions. You need to ask the educational institution you're getting it through what the difference between the two options they are offering is.
    I've used Office for Mac for a long time. There are some differences in the applications themselves, they're minor and it should serve you just fine.

  • Lost PDF files

    After doing a restart to resolve another issue I found all my PDF files in iBooks were deleted. This has happened before. Does anyone know why Apple hasn't resolved this issue?

    What do you mean by 'restart' ? If you restored to a backup then PDFs are not included in a backup, neither iCloud nor iTunes. Have you got copies of them in the Books part of computer's iTunes library, or if using a Mac with Mavericks or Yosemite on it in its iBooks app so that you can sync them back ?
    When you have PDFs and/or epubs in the iBooks app on your iPad, then even though they aren't iTunes purchases doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases should copy them over to your computer's iTunes library (and if using a Mac with iBooks on it then do File > Move Books From iTunes in its iBooks app) so that you have a backup copy of them and can resync them back to a device.

  • Internet connection lost while uploading pdf file !!!!

    I'm using adobe reader XI, I'm noted that while i'm uploading pdf file, my internet connection will be disconnect. I have contacted adobe help desk team they only informed me to contact adobe forum. I have this issue for past week. Awaiting for your reply.

    I had a very similar problem which I fixed like this:
    1) Move the file /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.airport.preferences.plist to your Desktop.
    2) Reboot
    Snow Leopard will rebuild this file from other info.
    This sorted out all my won't connect/loses connection issues.
