Scan to PDF on Lion opens EMPTY or corrupted on win7 & Google docs

I have scaned a file to PDF on Lion and when I sent the file to my win7 it opens empty.  Any idea how can I have my PDFs compatible with the rest of the world?
I even tried to open the file in google docs and I was able to recover some parts but it is corrupted there.

Go to /Library/Internet Plug-ins
Move the PDF Browser plugin from the Internet Plug-ins folder to the Trash then restart your Mac.

  • How do I view the ULR of a pdf I have opened in Preview?

    How do I view the ULR of a pdf I have opened in Preview?
    When I google something and find a pdf I want, I open it in Preview. However, when I go to copy the URL of the document to use as a resource in my homework, I can't figure out how to find it. Please help.

    Browsers like Safari and Firefox have a contextual menu to allow you to copy a link to the clipboard.  Point at a link.  Right (contol) click the link to bring up the contextual menu and select the "Copy Link" (or similarly worded - "Copy Link Location" in Firefox, "Copy Link Address" in Chrome) .  Then you can paste the link to wherever you want it.

  • Can't open attachments in google docs anymore

    Some time this past week I've stopped being able to open attachments in my Gmail with Google docs. I've restarted Firefox, restarted my computer, checked my plug ins are updated (updated Flash) but nothing makes a difference.
    When I click view it opens the Google docs tab and says loading and the page opens as if it's will finish downloading but then never finishes. The page remains blank and just says loading.
    I also no longer have the option when I click download of opening immediately, or saving. Now I can only save the file and then open it. No option to open it directly.
    I'm on Mac OS 10.5.8, Firefox 4.0

    Whats the answer please?

  • Issue: installed Adobe Reader XI, Norwegian version, existing pdf will not open or appear empty

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times, but I still have the same issue. Adobe automatically gives me the Norwegian version as I live in Norway. When I open existing pdf files they appear empty, and automatically close themselves after a few seconds.
    Any idea how I can solve this problem?
    Your input is highly appreciated!
    Thank you.

  • What scan settings to use when creating multipage pdf for best opening speed.

    Example: A four page text pdf created directly from my Epson Perfection V500 photo scanner is 193 kb.  It opens quickly and perfectly on my iMac.  Opening it on my iPad in iBooks, it takes awhile, and when I turn pages, there's a blank page at first, and then it slowly fills in.
    Now,  much larger pdf's that I create in Photoshop and InDesign open quickly and perfectly in iBook on my iPad.  What gives?  Any suggestions?  Thanks, Tom

    Hi!  The previous answer is right on, just wanted to add that the reason that larger PDFs from Photoshop or InDesign might open faster is that they are likely text-based.  If your particular project allows for it, you could use the OCR features of Acrobat to extract the text from a scanned page, which would ultimately result in a smaller PDF, which would open faster on your device.  See this page for some more information on this process: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/convert-jpeg-scan-ocr-to-pdf.html  Hope this helps!

  • When saving an downloaded pdf-fil, the saved file is corrupt (empty?) and can´t be opened. Happens all the time nowadays, never before. Its a mess. Please advice.

    Hi Melbus_SE,
    Are you downloading files from your Acrobat.com cloud storage? If so, what browser are you using, and are you on Mac OS or Windows? Has something changed on your system since you were able to download/open PDF files successfully? What version of Acrobat or Reader are you using to open these files?
    Sorry to ask so many questions, but your answers will help us get to the bottom of this issue.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.

  • Scan to PDF files too large! - Why?? Solution for Windows - How about Mac? (HP-8630)

    Scanning a document to a PDF file of reasonable size has been addressed many times - it is always an issue! My wife is a realtor and frequently needs to scan multiple page documents. I found an actual solution last night:
    27 page letter-size B&W document - Scan to PDF on my HP-8630 AIO using HP software at 300dpi, small file size, BW: 27MB! Too big to email.
    Solution (in Windows 7 at least), if you have Adobe Acrobat:
    Open Adobe Acrobat, go to File Menu -  Create - PDF from Scanner - Configure Presets. Select and configure "Black and White Document": 
    Select TWAIN device (NOT WIA) as the scanner; black and white, 300dpi, file size one notch to left (smaller) from center, check "optimize after scan". Select paper size and one- or two-sided scanning. Uncheck "make searchable". Save the preset. (The TWAIN driver was apparently installed with the HP installer, since I did not have to look for it.)
    After placing pages in the Doc Feeder,  go to File Menu, Create - PDF from Scanner - Black and White Document. Watch the magic!
    File size 768k!  Quality indistinguishable from the 27MB version, sharp and clear, all 27 pages! Really!
    Using the HP software, using a lower resolution or sliding the file size slider to smaller makes a muddy scan, and the file  is still huge compared to the Acrobat technique. MUCH worse quality than the Acrobat 768k version.
    Interestingly, using Acrobat to open the 27MB scan and "PRINT" it to the PDF Printer reduced the size to 10MB, with no change in appearance. "Save as smaller PDF" did not reduce the size further.
    What gives, HP?? What can Acrobat do  to scan from your AIO that you can't do?
    I tried on my Mac as well - we use both. No go. On Mac OSX 10.10.1 with latest HP drivers, Acrobat does not see any TWAIN or other driver from within the dialog box described above. Scanning from HP software again yields about 1MB per page.
    Anyone know how to make Acrobat see the scanner on Mac?

    Hi @JosephWit ,
    I see by your post that you are having issues with the PDF scanning size being too big. I will do my best to assist you with this issue.
    The drivers for 10.10 are installed by the Apple Updates. Did you install the 10.9 drivers or are did up run the Apple Updates to install the printer?
    Uninstall the 10.9 printer software and run the Apple Updates to install the proper drivers. Then you can scan with the Apple Software.
    Connect the printer to the Mac by a USB cable and run the Apple Updates to install the printer drivers.
    Go to the Apple, About this Mac, click on the Overview tab and select Software Updates.
    Go to the Apple, Printers and Scanners, delete the USB drivers and disconnect the USB cable.
    Then add the wireless printer as a Bonjour printer if the printer is networked.
    Click on the + sign, highlight the printer, below beside Use: make sure just the printer name is listed. (you might have to click on the drop down to select your printer from the list)
    Here is a document for Scanning in OS X v10.10 Yosemite Without HP Software.
    If you are having issues with Adobe, run the updates. Product updates.
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!

  • PDF won't open in AI CS2, but will in CS; error message

    My colleague and I are trying to determine the cause of an issue which arose yesterday in the middle of production of a corporate proposal. A PDF document submitted by the client had a form page to be filled out. Since it was evidently a PDF made from scans of the original, non-PDF document--possibly 6-7 years old--we elected to open it in Illustrator, type in data in text box overlays on a separate layer, and save again as a PDF.
    Using "open with AI", CS opened, not CS2 (both are loaded on the machine), and brought up an error box called
    Illustrator PDF: Warnings / "The document contains PDF objects that have been reinterpreted", and saying "This file was created with an unreleased version of PDF. Unexpected results may occur." The file opens, but the type is illegible at 100% (and clearly pixelated at 400%).
    Attempting to open the PDF in Illustrator CS2 by any means produced a blank preview in the page preview box, and, once a page was selected, a blank the page, though the reading progress bar appears briefly.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    What kind of file is produced directly, before using Save as PDF in the Printer dialogue?
    I am not certain I understand the question. This app prints calendars. I hope to use the print-driver's "Save to PDF" feature to produce PDF's. The app prints. The options in the print dialog determine if it goes to the printer or the disc.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro X Crashes when Trying to Scan to PDF - Epson Perfection v30 on Windows 7

    I am running Windows 7 with Acrobat Pro 10.0.0
    I have a Epson Perfection v30 Scanner installed. I open Acrobat, and when I select Scan to PDF, pick the v30 Scanner, and start the scan, it does actually start and complete the scanning process. However, at the moment where it displays the results of the scan, Acrobat crashes with the following Signature:

    We have 8 machines with Acrobat and this Printer, and I am able to repeat this with each system.
    Does anybody have any ideas? Is anybody using the Epson Perfection v30 scanner?

    Any ideas?   there was an update on adobe dated 2/25/13.   Perhaps if I uninstall it?   I need advice on how to uninstall. When I view updates and click on it, and then click uninstall, it goes back to the Program Screen, in Control, for all programs. Then do I click on Acrobat and Uninstall?  I am nervous about doing this. Thanks

  • Acrobat 7.0 Standard Random Hangs on scan-to-pdf

    Scan to pdf will randomly hang about 3/4 of the way through a multi-page document scan with no error or warning messages.
    Acrobat totally hangs (can't even move the window) and I have to kill the process in the task manager at which time a message appears saying "the process is waiting for input from you". There are no dialogs for input displayed.
    System: WinXP, scanner is Dell 964 all in one, Acrobat 7.1.0.
    I routinely scan multiple pages in the dell utility without problems.
    Does anyone have a suggestion how to fix this or provide a method for debugging?
    Thanks.

    If you can use AA7 on Win 7, you may be successful. However, you will have to print to the Adobe PDF print. If you were using an earlier version of WORD (2003), then PDF Maker may work. In any case, AcroTray will likely not work. That means you will have to print to the Adobe PDF printer with print-to-file selected. Then open that file in Distiller to complete the process. A bit combersome, but may work. I have done it with AA5 and Win 7 starter -- a bit of a pain and an upgrade is really appropriate. If you have a 64 bit system, you may be totally out of luck.
    So, you may be successful in getting AA7 to work in some sense. Do not expect perfection of no errors. Good luck.

    Hi,
    You can open Adbe Acrobat and scan from there. You will get more control of the PDF files under Adobe  Acrobat product. Please also check driver from the following link:

  • Corrupt pdf files cannot open

    I have a scanner that will scan documents into PDF format.
    I use this method for keeping my paper storage to a minimum by keeping physical copies of only the most important documents (i.e tax returns).  I scan documents into my laptop and then destroy the originals.  I have Adobe 9 for reading them once they are scanned in.
    My problem is recently my laptop has apparently been selective in what it will and will not open.  Some files open fine with no problems.  Others, scanned with the same scanner into the same format at the same time, will not open.
    The message I get says
    Acrobat could not open 'file name.pdf' because it is either not a supported file or because the file has been corrupted.
    The files were not sent to me via email.  I created them from my scanner or my using the pdf program as a printer (printing Word docs or web pages into pdf instead of onto paper).  When the documents were first scanned, they opened fine.  Now they do not.  Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
    I am very frustrated because I need these documents and they cannot be replaced.

    If I were you, I'd start with the support for the software you use for scanning. Sounds like it's got something out of whack.
    If it's a good PDF, Reader will open it.

  • PDF is not opening  in safari

    PDF is not opening in safari . I have adobe prof 9, and safari is the latest version.
    Now, all I get is a black window and nothing loads.
    what should i do?
    i have added ad ones to open pdf in safari, but still doesnt work

    Carolyn, thanks -- your solution helped.
    Actually, I've had the issue in OSX Lion, whereby the .pdf didn't launch in Safari . . . well, not launch fully. 
    In my Safari Browser, there would be a blue Q (Quicktime logo) that appeared momentarily, and then the 1st .pdf page (only) would show.  But, not say, the other 17 pages . . .
    Anyways, in Lion I got a message "Cannot delete (Internet Plugins) folder because OSX needs it" or something like that --> so, I just deleted all the contents + quit Safari = solved!

  • Scan to pdf page wanted to cut and move bottom text up

    I have a scanned to pdf (raster image) that I attempted to
    OCR in Acrobat 9 Pro.  Then I opened it PS CS4 and wanted to cut
    the bottom text and move it up but I did not know how.  How would you do this?
    The page had narrow top and bottom margins with much white space in the middle.  I thought I could move the bottom text up but I either did not have the rght tool or something was not working because it acted like one image on te page.
    Thanks!

    I may still give the Epson Artisan 810 a hard look...it appears to be a nice AIO. One other thing I hate about my HP is if I haven't printed in a day or two the first time I send something to it, it just sits there making noises for five minutes before doing anything. Same thing when it quits...it makes noises for a couple of minutes and then quiets down. Does the 810 do anything similar? Lastly, I'm pretty happy with the color prints that this one makes...how are they with the 810.
    Thanks for your time in answering these questions.

  • HP 2110 all in one scanning as PDF

    The scanner that I have is a hp deskjet F2110 all-in one.  How do I scan and save as a PDF file.  The only options that I can find are JPG, BMP, PNJ, TIF.
    Is it even possable to scan as a PDF file on this scanner?

    Thank you bison
    Try running the HP Print and Scan Doctor to start with and let me know the detailed results or include a screen shot to me.
    Also, like I mentioned above, ensure you have the full software downloaded and installed:
    HP Deskjet F2100/F4100 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver
    Afterwards, open up the printer software from your desktop and let me know if you have the options to "Scan to PDF".
