InDesign CS6 exporting to Adobe PDF (Interactive)

Created an interactive form in InDesign CS6, but when I export to a PDF file, using Adobe PDF (Interactive), the purple bar "Please fill out the following form…" is not visible in my PDF file.
PLEASE NOTE: My Adobe Acrobat Pro preferences do not have the check mark on under >Form >Always hide forms document message bar. The check mark is off.
I want the purple box to be visible in my interactive form, yet it is not. WHY????

Because this isn't really an InDesign question, I'd post this in this Acrobat Pro forum:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/forms
That's never worked that way for me.

    Hi everybody,

    I have tried in cs3 too, but same problem continues. (i am working on In Design CS6)
    Can anyone tell me the solutions ?

    Make sure you're choosing File > Export > Adobe PDF (Interactive) and NOT  Adobe PDF (Print).
    Make sure you're previewing in Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader and NOT other PDF readers (like Mac Preview).

  • PM 6.5 Export to Adobe PDF

    Using PM 6.5 under MS Vista I can´t create PDF-files by  "export to Adobe PDF". Need help.

    Firstly, Adobe don't support PM6.5 on Vista, for this kind of reason. PM's "Export… AdobePDF…" was never the most robust of macros so I'm not surprised it goes belly up with Vista.
    You could try this (copied from the now defunct PM FAQs), assuming you have a version of Distiller (4?) installed.
    The two stage Print and Distill process
    Stage1:
    First, "print" a PostScript file by going to File>Print.
    Select a PostScript printer & PPD from the output device (ie: Linotronic or Prinergy), or preferably the Acrobat 5 Distiller PPD.
    If you use Acrobat 6, use Adobe's Generic Postscript Printer by installing Adobe Universal PostScript Windows Driver Installer (winsteng.exe) from Illustrator's install disk or at http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=1500, choosing "Local Port" and "File."
    It's also recommended for all computers in your department to use the same PPD that is used for writing postscript files as the "Compose to" printer to avoid recomposition.
    In PageMaker’s Print dialogue, click on the "Options" button, and check "Write PostScript to File." Select the "Normal" radio button. Set both Type 1 and TrueType fonts to download. As always, set the Send TIF/Images option to "Normal" and NOT Optimized. Make other settings elsewhere in the print dialog as desired, such as "paper" size, crop marks, separations, etc. You’ll see the Print button has now become a Save button. Click Save.
    Note: If your going to create a PDF, always use the Distiller PPD.
    Stage 2:
    Launch Acrobat Distiller.
    Good practice in general is to check your Job Options prior to distilling, because you’ll need to change these depending on if your PDF is destined for high-end output or just web viewing - more on that in another post below - but pay special attention to the compression and downsampling options. These will have a very noticeable effect on image quality vs file size. Navigate to the PostScript file you created and open it. Alternately, you can "drop" the .ps file onto the Distiller window. Your PDF will be created, and, provided your PM document was clean to begin with (graphics Placed and not Pasted, EPS and TIF graphics only, properly managed fonts, etc) you should have a good PDF.
    Best of luck.

  • InDesign CS6 - Exporting Issues, PDF being sent to Photshop and saving as a psd rather than the requested pdf? Please help!

    Hi
    I have an issue in InDesign CS6. It has been happening the last couple of days now.
    When i export to pdf. regardless of quality instead of being saved as a pdf it is being sent to Photoshop which then saves the file as a psd...
    I have updated InDesign to the latest CS6 update which helped the issue yesterday but today the same problem is back. Help please what could be the problem and how do I fix it?
    Any advice is very appreciated.
    Thanks
    Sam

    ExportPDF is a subscription service for exporting PDF files into Word and Excel, from Adobe Reader. I suspect you need the InDesign forum, as InDesign is the product here.

  • InDesign CS6 exports PDFs wrong.

    When I try to export a file from InDesign CS6 as a PDF it always comes out looking like this:
    I tried downloading a patch that was supposed to solve the issue, but my Adobe Updater won't work either. The progress bar loads all the way but then it just jumps back to asking if I want to install the new updates without ever actually installing anything.

    That's totally useless. We don't know anything about your PDF settings, your version of Acrobat, your document, fonts used, paragraph styles, your system and so on. Ask in the ID forum and provide a lot more of those details.

    I am suddenly having the same problem, only with CS3. Did you ever find a solution?

  • Difference between Export and Adobe PDF presets..?

    Hi,
    It is possible to export a PDF from InDesign (CS3) using both the Export menu and the Adobe PDF Presets menu (both are sub-menus under File)
    Technically they seem to do exactly the same thing, both allow you to use predefined presets to export your PDF.
    What I am wondering is, are there any differences between the two? And if so, what are they?
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    PDF Presets are what they are Presets. You may get a joboptions file from someone to use and use the PDF Presets to load the joboptions (pdf options) file into the Presets.
    Then they become available in the Export Options.
    Alternatively you can go into the PDF Presets and then choose to Save one of your presets to file, then email that or give the file to someone else to load onto their computer in their version of InDesign.
    This way you can both have the same PDF export options.
    But the presets are just a way to create, save, load and edit profiles that are available when you go to Export to PDF.

  • Animation in Indesign CS6 export as a HTML for widget in iBA?

    Hi together,
    For me it`s the first question. I would like to animate pictures in iBooks Author. So I know about the tool hype. But I would like to use Indesign CS6 to create Animation files. I create a simple animation in CS6, export as a swf-file. Now I receive example.swf and example.html. Create a new folder with Default.png, Info.plist and example.html. The .swf file is in a folder named SWF. Next I create the folder  a .wdgt. Import in iBooks I read the main html-file is missing.
    Is my way possible: CS6 animation as a widget in iBooks Author? Or is it better to use other tools in the world of Apple like hype for example?
    Thanke and best regards
    Boris

    I'm quoting another post by Gadgetgurl42 here on a similar question...
    "iOS doesn't support swf as this is the exported verison of a Flash file. Putting the swf file into a widget won't change that fact.
    As sb0117 mentions, your best bet is to look at HTML5 animation."
    I wouldn't use Hype to create your assets as it's really quite limited in that respect, but create the assets in Photoshop and import into HYPE to create animation.
    I'd also do a couple of test files to check how the resulting animations look, full-screen on the iPad.
    Alternatively, if you're more familiar with Pages, etc, you could use Keynote as the learning curve might be easier.

  • Indesign cs6, export interactive pdf

    When i export my interactive document to pdf, the result is not working well. All the roll over buttons are blinking when the mouse cursor point on it. also i have problem with layers. the appearance of layers is not as same as file, so some images go under other.
    I have no problem in preview and it works well in preview but when i export to pdf the result is catastrophic. 
    Is there anyone have a same problem? Or anyone know what i am doing wrong?

    I am having the same problem. Here are my screenshots. In Acrbat 10, in the layers pane, the layers names show up correctly, but in the actual graphics of the PDF, the layers are displayed in the reverse order.

  • Exported PDF is Blank (branched, formerly Re: InDesign CS6 Export to PDF has missing objects)

    Just recently went from CS5.5 to CS6 and now when I export files in InDesign to pdf they open and are totally blank. What am I doing wrong?

    Jeanne,
    I've brancehed this to a new discussion because I'm pretty sure your problem is differnt fromthe one inthe trhead where you posted originally.
    What's your OS? Are the PDFs opening automatically at the end of export, or are you opening them manually?
    Are your pages blank in ID if you switch to Preview mode?

  • InDesign CS6 Export to PDF has missing objects

    When exporting to PDF, I have a 6-page document that has missing objects from the master.
    Here's the document with the content removed:
    lab.cyke.net/pdf/MissingObjects.pdf
    The first and last pages were constructed correctly. All pages in between are screwed up. Any ideas?

    @Jongware – I have a case with InDesign CS5.5 7.5.3 on Mac OS X 10.6.8 where master pages based on each other lead to false representation of page objects.
    Not only in pdf export, but also on the actual InDesign pages. Made an IDML from it, opened that in InDesign CS4 and the error was gone.
    This problem is documented at the German-Swiss forum "HilfDirSelbst" at:
    http://www.hilfdirselbst.ch/gforum/gforum.cgi?post=496285#496285
    Some screen grabs together with the IDML are attached there.
    After opening the IDML from InDesign CS4 with the error gone, I exported another IDML from CS4, opened that in InDesign CS5.5 7.5.3 and the error was present.
    To detect the error look at pages 1* and 4 of the mentioned screen grabs.
    Uwe
    //EDIT: *the screen grab of the pages palette of InDesign CS5.5 shows the error on page 4 only. The error is present outside of page 1 as well, but cannot show on the screen grab.
