Xp SP3 and PDF in page

I am aware of the arguments against embedding PDFs in pages,
but need to do this for a number of sites I manage.
Up to the installation of XP SP3 on my system the other day,
all seemed to work fine using <embed> inside <object>
to cater for IE and other browsers. Suddenly FireFox and Netscape
won't respond to the old code and I link this to my installation of
XP SP3. My escape route has been to add a manual link to the PDF to
cater for no-shows.
Has anyone else encountered this?
Is there a workaround?
Example of my current code is:
<object data="Resources/VitiligoMemFormApr08.pdf"
type="application/pdf" width="100%" height="70%"><embed
src="Resources/VitiligoMemFormApr08.pdf" type="application/pdf"
width="100%" height="600px"></embed>
</object>
<a href="Resources/VitiligoMemFormApr08.pdf"
target="pdf">Membership Form</a>
Works fine in IE, Opera and Safari, but not FireFox or
Netscape (all under Win XP SP3).
The relevant page is at

Thanks for any help.

Sp3 and pdf export with diadem

Dear all;
We use Diadem 11 with windows XP SP2, and we use the functions PDF and Html Export . After upgrading from pack 2 to windows xp pack 3 we could no longer use these functions. We now the recieve error message : Access Violation r The printer is not ready ...
We repaired DiAdem, and checked if the pdf printer converter exists and it is there .
Any ideas !!!

That might or might not work. Let's try closing ID again, log in withthe old user, then delet the files, if they exist, inthe list you'll find at Adobe Forums: InDesign crashes at startup
Your user library is hidden in 10.8, so if yo don't kow how to show those files, see Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 Lion
Now restart ID using the Keyboard shortcut to remove the prefs (hold down Cmd + Control + Shift + Opt keys as soon as you launch ID and choose Yes when asked if you want to replace the prefs. If you don't see the confirmation message, you weren't fast enough, so you need to try again).

IBooks and PDF default page colours

Hi there,
I was wondering if you can change the page colour of a PDF in iBooks? The default colour is white with black text. Can you change the page default colour to say yellow with black text at all?
Many thanks

Unfortunately not, I'd recommend leaving feedback http://www.apple.com/feedback/ibooks_ios.html

How to Edit or PDF Multiple Page Tiles in CS2 doc while working in CS4?

I have to resave this file as CS2, so I need to be able to edit and PDF original Page Tiles from CS2, not convert to Artboards. There is no Edit Page tiles, only View Page Tiles. When I go to save as PDF, there is no "multiple pages" option under General as stated elsewhere, and it PDF's as one huge "artboard" even though there are multiple page "tiles". Thanks in advance!

If you want to save an editable Illustrator file for CS2 then you save as .ai not as .pdf.
You can still Show Print Tiling in the View menu. Use the Print dialogue to set up the paper size, orientation, and tiling options, then click Done.

I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader. I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader. I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

If you could drag and drop pages before, it wasn't in Reader. You no doubt had Adobe Acrobat (Pro or Standard) which shouldn't be confused with Adobe Acrobat Reader. They recently added Acrobat to the name of Adobe Reader so the confusion about which product you had and/or have is understandable.

Links to named destinations in IFRAME positioning the PDF a page and half past

I created a PDF file w/ named destinations so that I can allow the Internet user w/ browser and Acrobat Reader plug-in to link to specific sections of the PDF. The zoom is set to Fit Horizontally, and the position is the top of the page in my example PDF. I used Acrobat Pro 8.1 to create the PDF.
Problem is when trying to load the PDF into an IFRAME, displayed with the named destination using a tag like:
<a href="http://ekensqldev5/ePadmin/documents/Raw.pdf?rand=1000#view=FitH&nameddest=Mission" target="myframe" >Click 1 </a>
When clicking on the link to the named destination, the .pdf is loaded or reloaded into an IFRAME and the page with the named destination is usually correctly displayed. Only in IE 6,7,8 the pdf will frequently (about 1 out of 4 times) be positioned a page and a half past the named destination. Clicking to a different link, and then back to the original link will usually reposition the PDF correctly. Chrome and Firefox always position the PDF exactly to the named destination. I'd like to know how to create the named destination so that it will always be positioned correctly, or to use a different link that will always position correctly. I'm using Reader 9.1.2

I'm working with Lyle on this, and I have done some additional testing.
What I found is that the positioning for named destinations seems to work ok with IE8 when the html page and pdf file are located on one of our external web servers (rather than local intranet servers).
I am wondering if this is due to the latency involved in downloading the file, allowing the DOM to register the plugin?
I've posted a query at Microsoft's forum, but they are pointing me back to Adobe...saying they cannot know how the plugin handles rendering...even though I responded that it seems to work across the board with Firefox and Chrome.
Here is my thread in the Microsoft forum.

Problem with exporting and printing from pages to PDF

I have a problem with my Pages
My font will not be embeded in my pdf files.
I have saved as a ps file and in to the destiller and my fonts are missing.
I need to send my file to the print shop but they will not accept my file and i now understand why.
fonts are missing...
Is there a workaround.
I have no problem in Indesign or quark but pages.....
I need help
thanks a zillion

The font is coming from a notation software Sibelius 4 and is namned opus
Hmmm ... Sibelius is a music notation software and notations are marked up in MusicXML. Presumably the font file is an SFNT with TrueType splines, but it is probably not installed in OS X system folders - rather in an internal Sibelius application font folder. So presumably you do not see the font in FontBook and OS X font auditing does not apply to the font.
Sibelius exports EPS files, right? If memory serves, an EPS is still legal even if the font resource is not embedded. And in any case, we know from the behaviour that the font resource is not embedded for some reason. So how do you get Sibelius to put the font resource inside the graphic ... normally there is a button in the EPS export procedure that gives you the option to Embed All Fonts.
You do not seem to get this button, though. Or why else would you not have checked it already and the problem would have gone away already.
The next point in troubleshooting this is that you are not following the path that would let OS X detect that an external font resource is not embedded.
I go from pages-print-printer- acrobat Pro 8-save as Pdf-x
What you are doing here is telling Pages to tell OS X to generate a PostScript program within which is nested your Encapsulated PostScript program with the call to an unresolved external font resource.
So why does Acrobat Pro not detect the unresolved external font resource? Hmm ... did you try the Preflight option in Acrobat 8 Pro? It should provide information on unresolved embeddings.
I have also tried pages-print-printer- acrobat Pro 8 and save pdf as postscript and put the postscript file in destiller 8 pro with defalt setting high quality print
The whole problem with EPS and PS is that this sort of situation is possible in the first place (plus, what is worse, the PS program can include custom additions to the graphics model that then fail in the PS interpreter whence Apple GX normalizing, Adobe Distiller normalizing, and Apple Quartz normalizing). You want to get as far away from EPS and PS as possible, believe me.
So, you have not done what I posted that you should do in the first place. If I were you, I would first get rid of the problem that the EPS is making a call to an external font and then get rid of the problem that the PostScript is preserving the external call.
To get rid of the problem that the EPS is preserving an external call, simply open the EPS in Apple Preview which includes a NORMALIZER for EPS/PS, and then save out the graphic as PDF. Alternatively, if you don't trust Quartz for some reason, set up a hotfolder for Distiller, make sure the option to embed all fonts is enabled, and convert the EPS to PDF.
Now replace your EPS in Pages with PDF in Pages, and don't save PostScript to disk but save PDF to disk through the proper procedure which is File > Print > PDF > Save as PDF/X [for your custom configuration of the PDF/X-3 filter considering that no sane person in North Europe prints lowend US SWOP, we use ISO].
If you begin by telling OS X that you want PDF within which fonts are supposed to be embedded ALWAYS, then you have started the right way. Otherwise, you have not told the operating system what you want to do, and this then leads you into places where you are unlikely to have the expertise to troubleshoot problems.
So, forget placing EPS in the first place, place PDF. And forget saving PostScript to disk, save PDF to disk. If that does not sort your problem, here is the dirty solution for professional prepress.
Adobe Photoshop has an EPS rasterizer that has wide tolerances for poor PostScript programming (so does Adobe Illustrator 6 and higher by the way).
Therefore, if an EPS is posing problems, one workaround is to rasterize the EPS at high resolution in Photoshop and place that high resolution PDF in your layout.
Take care that you rasterize as 1 bit at the required resolution of the print provider, probably 2450 dpi. When you save the 1 bit as PDF, Photoshop automatically compresses to a very, very small file (don't be surprised if 15Mb compresses to something like 0.5Mb).
Rasterizing in Photoshop should not be necessary if you simply start by telling the operating system what it is you are trying to do. Then the operating system should be able to take the right decisions for you, and tell if you if finds problems it cannot resolve without turning to you.
Good luck,

If your mail service allows all of that to be sent as attachments or however you are attempting that then it's possible the email server or servers receiving the email do not allow attachments that large.
You say you are sending "a combination of MS Word and pdf files and attachments". I've never sent anything like that. I have zipped various files into a zip file then attached that to an email for sending.
Googles mail appears to allow a total of 25 megabytes of attachments in a single email.
Yahoo mail appears to allow a total of 25 megabytes also.
Microsofts mail appears to allow a total of 20 megabytes of attachments in a single email.
Another option would be to upload everything to your onedrives public folder and provide a link for others to download all of it in the email you send out.
A single users onedrive supposedly can have up to 10 gigabytes loaded onto it. I suppose all of that could be used by the public folder but maybe not.

Printing Header and Footer once in HTML and on all pages in RTF and PDF using one RDF

Hi,
I am using a single RDF to generate reports in HTML,PDF and RTF.
For printing the header only on the first page I used the
following trigger
begin
srw.get_page_num (page_num);
IF upper(:P_FORMAT) = 'HTML' THEN
if page_num = 1 then
return(true);
else
return (FALSE);
end if;
ELSE
return (TRUE);
END IF;
end;
I alo require to print the footer once on the last page in case
of HTML and on all pages for RTF and PDF.Is there any way I can
get the total number of pages or is there any other way to
acheive this. ???
Any help would be appreaciated .
Thanks,
Alka

Generally, one template can not create nice output in all formats. In your case, you would need a format parameter to suppress headers/footers if it's value is 'EXCEL'. The problem is (I wish someone would correct me on this) that we can not refer the standard parameter already there and have to create another, user-defined parameter.

AcroPDF in VB6 - Find text in PDF and print that page.

Okay, so I'm certain that this question has been asked and answered a hundred times, but for some reason my googling skills are seriously failing me today...
I have a legacy application built in VB6 that generates PDF documents of a particular form letter. Each PDF contains all of the form letters that were printed on that particular day. I actually have it all working rather decently, but something came up a little while ago that set me on a new programming obsession. I want to enable the following functionality from my application:
The user provides a text string that should be unique among all pages of all PDF's (customer ID).
The application then finds the PDF that contains that text string and identifies which page number contains that text string.
Finally, send only that page to the printer.
Currently I can easily create, display and print the PDF from my application. While the creation of the document is done through a third-party reporting system, all display and printing functions are basically handled using AcroPDF.dll. Going through the available properties and methods for an AcroPDF object, I see that I can tell it to print only specified pages, which gives me the last part of my requirements, and I've got the user input part down pat. I'm just totally stumped at finding a solution for "step 2".
Any suggestions, ideas or comments would be greatly appreciated. I'm kinda tired of banging my head against a wall. Thank you for your time.

If you are only using Adobe Reader, then that feature isn't available.
If you have Adobe Acrobat, then you have a few options.

Split PDF, name odd pages and name even pages in sequence

I need help creating a script to ask the user for a PDF file then do the following:
-Extract even pages and rename name with "_Front#" ending where "#" is a number sequence starting with 1.
→ ex: the PDF I choose when prompted is "anatomyBook". The extracted even pages would be:
     - anatomyBook_Front1, anatomyBook_Front2, anatomyBook_Front3,...
-Extract odd pages and name them similarly except replace "Front" with "Back"
Thanks for the help!

Ok, I have solved some issues I found with the previous script and Automator configuration.
The Filter Finder Items action apparently uses kMDItemKind to determine the file type, and if you choose a PDF file without an extension, this action will not pass the file to the Bash script. Result: 0.
The mdls command, for the same reason will always fail to get a page count when it encounters a extensionless PDF file.
Remove the entire mdls/egrep command sequence from the script.
Wrote a shell function that runs Python, imports the CoreGraphics module, and returns the page count for PDF files with/out extensions. The function takes as its argument, the input PDF filename, which it passes into Python as a command-line argument ($1). It returns a page count.
Replace entire Bash script in Automator with the following code.
