Problem with PDF files created by Indesign

PDF files created by Adobe Indesign come up as blank pages whereas PDF files created by Mac OS X or Apple's Pages display OK. Is there a difference in the way PDF files are created?

No problem with Adobe Reader 8 or 9 .

Back up all data.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Problems opening .pdf files created in Windows in MAC

My clients that are using Macs are having problems opening password protected PDFs that I created in Windows. Any suggestions?

Are your clients using Adobe Reader on Mac, or the built-in Mac OS Preview? Preview does NOT support the full PDF standard :(.

Problem with PDF files

Hello Experts,
I am having trouble with PDF files corrupting the folder in
which they are contained. If this sounds familiar, and you might be
able to help, please see if the following steps give you an idea of
the problem and the fix.
I want to link to PDF files from a web page. The copy,
consisting of several files, was provided by my client as Word
documents, and converted to PDF by me from within Microsoft Word.
I copied the PDF files into their own folder in my site, and
found later, after leaving, then reopening Dreamweaver, that the
folder was corrupted and unreadable. I got a message to run chkdsk.
I tried working around the folder by repeating the process
above in a new file, with the intention of ignoring the corrupted
one. The second folder also became corrupted.
I don't know if chkdsk is a Dreamweaver utility, or a Windows
utility, or if this is a Windows, Acrobat or Dreamweaver problem.
Does anyone know how to run chkdsk?
Does this sound familiar to anyone? Any ideas?
Thanks so much in advance for the urgently needed support.
Richard

chkdsk used to be a DOS utility, now Windows. Depending on
the OS you have
and whether it's Mac or PC, you can run it several ways.
If XP > Start > Help and Support, type chkdsk in the
search
Other OSs, search for chkdsk.

Problem with PDF files opening up in code on IMac OS 10.6.6

Just bought a new IMac three weeks ago (my first Apple Computer after years of using a PC). I've been using their TextEdit program to create simple documents, and routinely save the documents as PDF's to make it easier to share with clients. Everything has worked fine until three days ago - now whenever I open a PDF file it shows up in code. This is happening to documents I created several weeks ago, it is happening to new documents I am creating, and it is happening to PDF files clients are sending to me. (For instance, today I received a PDF file attached to an email from a client - if I hit "quick look" I can view the document with no problem, but if I hit save, or double click the document in order to print, the document shows up in code (and prints in code). Eek! I just spent over an hour with Apple support trying to figure out a solution, but they ended up just as baffled as me, and directed me to call Adobe. Hoping someone can help me figure out what I need to do to resolve this. Thank you!

Thank you George for your response to my plea for help. Late yesterday I was able to get in touch with a friend familiar with Mac and PC and she figured out my main problem was trying to use TextEdit as a primary document program. (She also had me try to open some PDF files with preview, but they still came up as code.) She quickly realized I would be able to open these files in my documents file - I was trying to open them up in the TextEdit program. Anyway, the main thing I'm realizing is I need to get Microsoft Office to avoid these challenges in the future. As you can tell, I'm not up to speed on computer stuff, but my friend said the Apple support guy should have realized right away that using TextEdit the way I was attempting to use it was my real problem, not an issue with Adobe Reader.
Thanks again!

Problems with PDF files going digital

Little white lines. I've never had a problem printing a PDF that had those little white grid lines in it but now I am using the same InDesign file to also create a digital issue and the white lines are beyond my brain's toolkit. They won't show up in the iPad version but they will on android or vice versa. Sometimes a background will drop completely out of an ad that has behaved all the way to the end. I must be missing some step - some flattening or rasterizing or standing on my head step. Here are the PDF settings I'm using for my digital PDF: Standard: None; Compatibility: Acrobat 6 (PDF 1.5); Optimize for Fast Web View is checked; I've got Image Quality set to maximum on the compression page and Monochrome at 1200 so the text stays clear when you zoom in. Once I process the PDF it goes to my boss who runs it through INHouse Digital Publishing app. It's at that point that ad backgrounds will drop out or misbehave. Any advice is most welcome!! Please help!

I most strongly suspect that your “INHouse Digital Publishing app” is flattening any and all transparency in your PDF file causing flattening artifacts.

I am using htc desire with Android 2.2 with latest update for PDF Viewer.
Recently I scaned book on FineReader 11 with recognition and save it on pdf format with setting to show page pictuire above recognized text. On desktop this file opening normaly, but on PDF Viewer for Android Version 1.00.1045 on my Android device it opening very very slowly and the following pages don't want to open at all. At the same time other pdf files downloaded from Net is opening normaly.
What is the matter of problem, on perfomance (1 Ghz), RAM capacity (512)?
How can I improve pdf files that I can read it on Android? Its imperative to have page picture above (with recognized text above its working very fast).

Please try it on Adobe Reader version 10.1.0 , Please note that this forum is for Adobe Reader on android and not for PDF Viewer.

HP Officejet100 Mobile L411a intermittent Bluetooth printing problems with PDF files

Hello,
Our company provides computer-hosted medical devices controlled by an application running on Windows7 computers we supply. We are currently using the HP Officejet 100 as a Bluetooth printer. In some of our customer offices, we experience printing problems using the printer in Bluetooth mode (there are never problems if the printer is connected by a USB cable.)
The printing problems typically affect PDF files printed through Adobe Reader 10, and the symptom is one of the following:
Send a print job to the printer. It doesn't print and eventually the print queue shows an "Error Printing" message. If any print jobs are removed and the printer is power-cycled, the problem goes away for the time being.
2. Same as above but power-cycling does not cure the problem and nothing will print, even a test page.
In either of these cases there are no problems if a USB cable is used.
The PDF files we are trying to print are typically 5 pages with 3 of the pages having a lot of graphics and the remainder being text only.
Has anyone seen this behavior and is there anything we can do about it?
Thanks.

I don't anything about this printer, but I do know that bluetooth is really flaky with large files since it's got a crappy transfer rate, could be that the transfer is dropping and freezing the printer up. Does it have encryption turned on?

N9 and problem with pdf-files

The problem is: I download an pdf file from internet. Filename is containg skandinavian characters which are converted as "%D6 etc." When I try to open the file with N9 I get an error similar to: "file is corrupted, can not open the file". Yet the same file works fine with Nokia C5-00 and with my Macbook laptop. Any idea how to fix this problem?

is the device actually sold in your country of origin, or was it imported.
not that it should really matter, but sometimes could be an issue.
you could also try to rename the file and then try to open it.

Problem with PDF file in a side by side format?

I have a pdf file that I need to read like a book on a website. It is 12 pages so I want p1 separate then 2-3, 4-5, 6-7, etc. I was able to accomplish this HOWEVER I needed the recipient to be able to download & upload this file to their website. As a test I emailed this to a family member, when they downloaded the file, they were able to view this document side by side in Acrobat. So I emailed the pdf to the web master and they tell me when they tried to do this on their end, the file is not side by side, it is only scrolling up and down. So my question is how do I get the recipient (web master) to be able to put my file on their website in the "book" side by side format?

The term "book" needs some nit-picking/clarification/discussion.
If we assume book & your pdf document are synonymous than -
With you initial view settings set the recipient will open the document as described, if they are opening the document in Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader.
Their local Preference for "Restore last view settings..." does become a concern. (They should clear the option as necessary)

I should mention they do have other doc's on their site in book format so I am just very confused why they can't see mine in the same way?
View the other documents. Are they pdf? Check those documents (File > Properties) to discern what settings they have used. (Initial view also allows page scaling).
The term "book" needs some nit-picking/clarification/discussion.
"Books" on the web could mean a variety of formats.
I have a pdf book hosted this week. I spent a good deal of time creating perhaps 100 live bookmarks within the document, verified that the document opens with the Bookmarks pane viewable and navigates properly in Adobe software.
Upon providing this to the client he decides to view on a hand held device (doesn't quite now how or what viewer his device use using), send back & forth to his web guy, they decide this is great, but I don't think they ever saw the bookmarks panel I included. Additionally, one the first page I included the phrase "Best viewed with Adobe Reader/Adobe Acrobat" They asked me to remove that - they thought (correctly) that their smartphones opened the document faster.
Point being - you have NO control on how the documents will be viewed. Local settings (document application handling/default viewers) for recipients are to varied and cannot be controlled.

Ouick Time problems with pdf files

Help!! I can't view web pages that contain pdf files in the pdf format; the QT logo appears and I just get a picture of the first page of the pdf. If a download option is available, I can usually get it to download, but if the link takes me to a page where the pfd resides I just get that first-page display. I have tried to keep Acrobat Reader open while accessing the content, but it doesn't help. This happens with Firefox, Safari & Opera.
I need to download some forms to print & fill out, so any help to solve this problem soon would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks all,
Bee

I don't how things got changed, but I have resolved this issue on my computer. After Googling and searching in other forums, etc., here's what I did. I had Reader open. Closed it and relaunched. When it opened I got a message that Adobe Reader was not configured as an "internet helper" and asked if I wanted to repair this. I said yes. Then...since I ticked and unticked various other preferences trying to resolve this, I had to go back to Safari prefs and make sure that Open Safe Files was turned on. I think I quit Safari and restarted. Then it worked!!! Clicked the PDF link and it downloaded as a PDF into my downloads folder. All is back to normal.

Printing problems with Pdf documents created with Pages

I upgraded to Acrobat 8.0 recently and for some reason when I save a Pages document to pdf, within the print options then try and print, it prints blank.
I have created other pdf documents which print OK, so the problem lies somewhere within Pages.
I didn't have the problem with Acrobat 7.0
ANy ideas

When you say "Acrobat", do you mean Adobe Acrobat Standard or Pro? Or do you mean Adobe Reader?
If it is Adobe Acrobat, I would go to the preflight option and see what information you get there. But no, I have not had the problem myself.
