Adobe Acrobat XI: Create PDF from Scanner

There is a lengthy (2-minute) delay for the scanner window to appear when attempting to Create PDF from Scanner with Adobe Acrobat XI (11.0.09) and Mac OS X 10.10 (14A389). I am using a Canon LiDE 100 scanner, and the latest Canon scanner driver:
LiDE 100 Scanner Driver Ver. 14.11.4a (OS X 10.5/10.6/10.7/10.8/10/9/10.10): This product is a TWAIN-compliant scanner driver for Canon color image scanner.

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.

Can anyone let me know where is the problem?

Actually, the question boils down to; does the framework support the fonts?
I believe that my question re. this working in the designer was valid. The designer does not use the framework, so if it works there, it is either a framework issue or a runtime print engine issue.
I believe if you use the code below, it will list fonts available to the framework:
foreach(FontFamily ff in FontFamily.Families)
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(ff.Name);
For more information see kbase [1198306 - Crystal Report displaying incorrect font in Microsoft Visual Studio .NET|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_dev/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333133393338333333303336%7D.do]

Generating PDF from Microsoft Word with C#

Hello,
We have created web-based system for a customer that stores/handles Microsoft word documents and provides these to users as PDF versions. Unfortunately some problems appear with our third-party component that generates PDF from Word. Our customer has previously used Adobe Acrobat X Pro to manually generate the PDF files and is confident that the output produced this way is valid. Despite searching and reading a lot I can't find any way to determine if (and how) it is possible to automate the process of generating a PDF file from a Microsoft word file using the Adobe engine. There is a lot of SDK documentation, how to control PDF rendering in winforms applications etc. etc. All I want to do is to load an Adobe Acrobat instance, feed it with a word document and save it as a PDF on disk. From a C# app (ASP.NET). Is that possible?
Best regards
Jan Hansen

As mentioned, you can probably send the DOC file to the Adobe PDF printer to create the file. What I keep reading in your post is a legal issue. You keep mentioning being able to create the PDF on a server automatically. The server use of Acrobat is a violation of the EULA. If you are creting the files off-line for posting as has been done, there should not be a problem. However, having these created in an automated manner by the user may be an issue. Before you go much further, I would check with legal counsel about the use of Acrobat in the way you intend. If they indicate there is a problem, then your question is not needed.
Back to the issue. Try just dropping a DOC file on the Adobe PDF printer icon (you may have to open the Start>Printers to do that. See if that creates the PDF. If so, you will just need to automate that process.

I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create>pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

Provide you have Acrobat 9 installed in an OS for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the functionality.
As well, you need a scanner connected, powered up, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefers" TWAIN drivers.
Always visit the scanner vendor's site and download - install the latest greatest software.
n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013.
As well the Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
Be well...

"Create PDF from scanner" causes Adobe 8.1 to crash

Can anyone help us repair Acrobat 8? Or upgrade/reinstall Acrobat 9? We've got WinXP, running SP 3.
When we moved our PC to our new office, the create PDF from scanner function quit working, and now makes the entire program crash. We can still create PDFs other ways, but from scanner isn't working - the "Acrobat Scan" dialog box opens, but after about 5-10 seconds, the crash window comes up. Repairing, updating, uninstalling, and reinstalling the software all fail. Here are the errors for each attempt:
Repairing: "Preparing to install" dialog pops up but immediately disappears and no further action takes place.
Updating: It attempts to install update to 8.1.4, and the process begins, but after 5-10 seconds quits with error dialog "The installation process has encountered a problem. Please choose from the following options:" with 3 choices - run again, stop and start later, or cancel and quit. Selecting "run update again" just causes the error dialog to come up again. The other 2 quit the install entirely.
Uninstalling (via add/remove programs) and reinstalling (via downloading the software from the Order ID site again) both fail independent of each other with the same error: “The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it.”
We do a lot of scanning to PDF's ... how can we fix this? There've been no other PC problems whatsoever, otherwise ...
My name is Scott Knowles, tech support guy for my sister's PC ... whose account this is.

The scanner is an all-in-one printer, in perfect working order otherwise. Good idea though - I tried scanning *outside* the Acrobat software ... that proved the scanner software *is* faulty ... I'll repair that. Thank you !

Acrobat Standard 9.1.1 crashes on Create PDF from scanner

All options under the Create PDF from scanner sends Acrobat Standard 9.1.1 crashing.

No luck yet. Anyone have the same issue?

This might be a scanner issue. Have you tried scanning using other applications?
If not, can you try the following steps once?
1. Download TWACKER (Twack_32.msi) from http://www.twain.org/downloads.shtm
2. Install it.
3. Go to <Program files>\TWAIN Working Group\Twacker 32 and invoke Twack_32.exe.
4. Go to File menu > Select Source.
5. Select the TWAIN driver (not the WIA driver) for HP M1212nf and Click OK.
6. Now, invoke File > Acquire menu.
Please update with the result.

Acrobat 9 Quits When Create PDF from Scanner Selected

Hi. I wonder if anyone can advise please.
I have recently installed Acrobat 9 on my MacBook Pro and have plenty of RAM. However, I can "Create PDF from Scanner" just the once. After that, Acrobat quits when I select Scan or quits if I cancel the scan.
I have tried the following:
1. Troubleshoot System Errors & Freezes
2. New User account
3. Recreated Preferences
4. Booted from separate disk
5. Repaired disk permissions
6. Have no third party plug-ins installed
7. Have run Repair Acrobat
8. Changed Universal Access
9. Defragmented disk & repaired files
10. Safe Boot and reinstall Acrobat
Nothing has worked except when I clean install I can scan through Acrobat once.
I can scan from the scanner software - Lexmark 4850 - with a jpeg straight to Acrobat but want to try to solve the issue of scanning straight from the app.
Thanks for your help people.
Regards
Paul

After I discovered my problem of quitting after completing the scan of the first side of a 2-sided document and decided to go to Adobe for help, I should have known I was in real trouble after following their instructions for locating the Acrobat serial number. After bringing up the splash screen and clicking on it, instead of seeing the number the splash screen disappeared! So I had no option but to use the phone. Then their help person couldn't give me the serial number- he had to transfer me- and I chose to stay with him for help instead. He decided it was a conflict between the Acrobat & HP software and ended the help session.
I then did some on-line research and discovered others with the same problem, and came up with the comparison test with the Windows version. Adobe's phone system didn't recognize my Case #, but the second Help person said it worked fine. At that point, I got the feeling that I was in real trouble. After another hour going over the same ground and repeated denials that their software was at fault, the Helper refused my request that they do a Windows comparison test or send me a Windows version to test myself and promised to call me back with results of their "research". That call never came.
On the third call, again with the Case # unrecognized by the phone system, the Helper was even more unhelpful, probably after reading the record of the first two calls. He insisted on going back to the machine and over the same ground once again, and I ended the call.
I agree that the on line approach is better, and I may have to make a double call to get the serial number (neither of the two I have, each different on the case or on the CD worked) and try that if my request for a supervisor fails. Fortunately they are so incompetent that they can't track starting over.
I'm not a programmer, but have lots of varying experience with computers dating back to the first Atari-400. Since your Acrobat uses only the Twain driver component from your scanner software, the first place to look for a problem is in the Acrobat software, especially since the software doesn't run again after the first use without reinstalling, and the scanner continues to perform properly using it's installed software. The Windows comparison test such as Tim Whitfield was able to make, would clearly establish the Mac version of the Acrobat software to be at fault, but would still not resolve our problems. Unfortunately I hold out little hope for either you or I with Adobe, since neither their phone nor the online help has come up with a prior fix. This indicates a bug fix requirement, which for something like this looks to be a relatively long time in coming.

Can't create PDF from Scanner

If I launch Acrobat 9 (all updates applied) of CS5, select "Create new PDF" -> "From Scanner", the HP OfficeJet 6500 scanner scans multiple pages (with page feeder) and then nothing happens. Nothing. The program window is empty: http://screencast.com/t/j5xNTy0MDpPn
It doesn't consume any CPU, it doesn't react on click (except Windows "ding"). Nada.
Single page PDF creation works, multi-page fails.
Any clue?

After going to Create new PDF > From Scanner, what do you choose? Scanning Presets (Color Document, Color Image, Grayscale document etc) or Custom Scan?
HP Officejet 6500 supports both TWAIN and WIA drivers. Which one are you using? To distinguish between WIA and TWAIN, look for "WIA" and "TWAIN" in the scanner name string in the "Scanner dropdown".
Please let me know your findings.

Creating pdf from scanner in 10.6.1

The one feature I loved in Acrobat was the ability to scan multiple pages directly into Acrobat as a single file by using the option "Create pdf from scanner." After upgrading to Snow Leopard, this feature still appears in the menu, but no scanners are found. I know of the issues with printers and file extensions, but I guess scanners are seen as another form of printer? I hate scanning to Preview then saving each page as a pdf, then opening in Acrobat to concatenate the files, rotate pages and make any necessary changes. Will the create pdf from scanner ever work again as it used to? Please . . . .

Your problem isn't clear
It is slow, so I understand that you can scan. Perhaps you can check the scanning resolution, if it is an heavy parameter, it is clear than the scan take longer.
When you scan from another application, is it slow ?
Scan Drivers are ok ?
Try VueScan Pro, it is a scanning application that support more than 1700 scanner. Does it work better ?
It can also replace your default driver.

Gray box for logo generating pdf from fm book

Greetings,
I have a large FrameMaker book that I've generated pdfs from a million times. We cleaned up our logo, so I dropped it in and tried to generate the usual pdf. a gray box resulted for the logo only. all other artwork displayed fine. i tried scaling down the logo, changing formats, changing import methods, etc. all failed. however, generating a pdf from the book if I remove a few chapters gives me my logo. Am I running out of resources? I'm using tech comm suite 1.3 on vista. There are no clues in the acrobat log. show large images is turned on in the adobe reader.
I used the obvious workaround: generated two pdfs, one with just the logo page and one with the rest of the book, then combined them. But this process is not practical long term. Any clues?

A couple questions:
What format is the new logo file?
Given that it works with some component files, but not in the book... I'd guess that it may be a resource issue. How much RAM and free space do you have?
And when you "dropped it in," does that mean imported into one file by reference, or copied in, or imported into a template that you used to update all files in the book..... or something else? And if it did update multiple files, did you double-check them to make sure the path to the graphic is correct?

Generating PDF from MSWord--IsTable of Content Updated?

Hello,
In generating PDF from MSWord document does the Adobe process call a method on the MSWord object to update the TOC field in the Word document during the generation process. Or is it assumed that the table of content in the Word document is always updated. If the table of content field is not current, field error message can appear in the Word document and the page number for
the link can contain inaccurate values.
Thank you,
Jesse

It is assumed the TOC is up to date.

Create PDF From Scanner - Items not tagged by default in Adobe X?

Our associates leverage Adobe Acrobat's Paper Capture API to create PDFs directly from TWAIN-sourced scanners. In Adobe Acrobat 9.x, the resulting PDFs were automatically tagged. In version 10.x they are not, and I don't see a way to enable tagging automatically when using the "File -> Create PDF from Scanner" option. Strangely, the option to tag the PDF is available when using "File -> Create PDF from Web Page."
Any ideas?

Create PDF from scanner with Acrobat 11.0.6

Ever since Acrobat updated to 11.0.6 the create pdf from scanner option will not complete. I am running OS X 10.9.1 on a Macbook Air as well as a Macbook Pro. The Macbook Air updated to Acrobat version 11.0.6 sometime last week and that's when it stopped working. The Macbook Pro updated just this morning and stopped working as well.
I click on File > Create > PDF from scanner, which then brings up the Acrobat Scan window. HPScan shows up as the default scanner and click the scan button leaving the usual default options unchanged. The HP Scan window then pops up and I click scan. The document scans and appears in the HP Scan window; so far so good. It will ask me if I want to scan other pages, to which I click no. I then click the return button as usual. Normally this would then return me to back to Acrobat, but this is not happening. It just hangs there at the HP Scan window. This started happening when Acrobat updated to 11.0.6. If I go into the Acrobat preferences and change the Scan driver option under Conver to PDF from Twain to ImageCapture it works. It used to work with the TWAIN option.
Any ideas?

Hi,
We are investigating this issue and will get back to you once we have any updates.
Thanks
