Acrobat 8 Standard And Word 2007 Rotated Pictures

When I make a PDF file from Word, either printing with distiller or saving through the Save option, I get low quality pictures.
The pictures that havn't been rotated at all show up perfectly, however, pictures that I rotated 5 degrees or so for effect come out terrible - the quality is like a low low quality jpg and the edges are all jagged and uneven.
I used the standard settings, then I chose 400 dpi for the picture quality and highest jpg quality, and no resampling - and the pictures were still terrible.
This appears to be a bug in something in the adobe creation software.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

It doesn't matter what are the names of these forums. Major companies provide these *official* forums to harvest troubleshooting results of their products for free. You never be able to test your product on this number of various environment this much cheap.
Unlike their support services these "USER" forums provides them with those product issues they are looking for without ANY obligation to solve them or even accept their existence. And best of all they collect all these information at no cost.
However, in honest and considerate companies, development team members share their opinions with forum users. They even admit they are aware of issues but have no solution for them at this time. If team members do not have enough time for providing feedback, they somehow use *well-trained* individuals to discuss the issues.
Those companies do not "Read and Hide". They "read and discuss".
Anyway, unfortunatly, the links you found are not related to this discussion. They are about PDFMaker issue in other component of Office not Outlook.

Q regarding Acrobat 9 Standard and Excel 2007

Using 9 Standard and Excel 2007, what settings do I need to change to create a pdf document that looks like my Excel print preview? Some of the graphs within our excel documents are large, say 3 graphs 5 inches wide each, which are then forced to fit the print area using excel's Fit-to page settings. When we attempt to convert these to pdf using 9 Standard, the graphs end up 5 inches wide each, and do not fit on the pdf page. These pages pdf perfecly using Pro 8 but not using 9 Standard. Unfortunately, I can not change the Excel documents, because we have multiple users, some with 9 Standard and others with 8 Pro, all using the same Excel documents.
Thanks in advance for any and all replies.

Thank you for your reply, however the suggestion did not work. My original problem still exists: headers and footers are resized on each page, some so small they are unreadable. Also (much worse), I did a 'save-as' on a file created in XL 07, saving as XL 97-03. This caused a 'significant loss of functionality' within my file, affecting 286 different cells. I often use XL07's =IFERROR formulas which are not recognized in 97-03.
So... I still have only a partial solution. Adjusting the dpi settings allows me to successfully convert XL 07 files to pdf, but Acrobat 9 Standard is currently useless, because I can not add proper headers and footers.
Anyone else with suggestions? All replies appreciated.
Thanks
jim

Acrobat 3D and Word/Office 2007 issues

Is anyone having issues with Word 2007 docs after installing the Tech Comm Suite? We think it might be related to Acrobat 3D.
Word 2007 docs show the index markers even when the Show/Hide Paragraph setting is turned off.
Also, an error ("Compile error and hidden module distmon")appears when opening an Excel 2007 doc.
If anyone has any insight or how to possibly fix this, please let me know. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the reply,
we are using 'Oracle XML Publisher Template Builder for Word' Version 5.6 Build 45.
I have looked again in Word 2007. I went to Word Options > Add-Ins
Various Add-Ins are listed. There is an inactive one called 'Custom XML Data':
Publisher:'Microsoft Corporation'
Location: 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\OFFRHD.DLL'
Description: Inspects for custom XML data stored with this documentAm I right in guessing this has nothing to do with XMLP?
There is nothing else in the list relating to XMLP.
Any advice much appreciated!
Thanks
Jim

Hi Timothy,
The account cannot be validated error was due to a glitch on our activation server that has been fixed now.
Please try using acrobat now and check if you are still facing the problem.

Acrobat 8.1.6 and Word 2007 - PDF printing problem

I have a weird problem with printing a word 2007 document to the Adobe PDF printer (distiller). I hope someone can help with this.
My two-page Word document has a background color, text, text boxes and two imported images (both under 500kb). Now, the problem is two-fold:
If the 'print background color' option is disabled (unchecked), the PDF looks okay, but the background color vanishes as does text within text boxes (the text boxes themselves appear fine).
If the 'print background color' option is enabled, the PDF shows only the background color, but no text!
In either case, the PDF generation takes an unusually long time.
I tried to follow the advices given in other threads, and looked for the presence of Acrotray.exe (it was present during the process). I also tried printing the document to a file (.prn), renaming the extension to .ps, and double-clicking it to send the job to distiller - every time with the same result.
I must mention that if I use Word 2007's own 'Save to PDF' feature, it generates a clean PDF without any problem. It is only the Acrobat Distiller that is giving me endless grief. Can someone knowledgeable please help me with this issue?

I have an update. This is even weirder. It turns out that after I generate the PDF and only the background color shows up, I can use the Touch Up Object tool to select the entire page (by clicking anywhere in the colored area), and press 'delete'. If I do this, parts of the background color gets deleted, revealing the text underneath - including the background color!!!!! And doing this repeatedly, I can remove this strange 'overshadow' and find everything (image, text, text box) intact underneath. I can do the same to the text box, and eventually, the missing text appears there.
I, of course, have to do this for every single page!
In summary, it is almost as if my text and images are being covered by a sheet with the same color as the background, which I am then removing part by part - with each stroke of the delete key - much like opening a . Strangely, this happens for each page except the last page (which prints fine - with images and texts etc.)
Does anyone have a clue about this?
Update: I hadn't seen the replies from Bill and Lori when I posted this. Thank you both for replying! I do think that the problem is with transparency, given what I found out just now (written here). However, I have tried different PDF settings, standard and high quality (this is the one I normally use), and yet I have had the same issue!

Acrobat Pro 9 and Word 2007

We've been using Pro9 in Office 2007 for about 12 months with no problems. Couple of weeks ago it hung up and after rebooting Acrobat had disappeared as a toolbar option. Excel is fine but not Word. Converting from scanner is also OK. Have uninstalled and reinstalled but cannot get Acrobat back in Word. If using Adobe menu and "create from file" it tells us that "PDF Maker Files are missing". I see that Office 2010 has a similar problem and wondered whether this was Microsoft update problem, Anybody got any ideas?

Conversion anomalies with Acrobat Professional 8 and Word 2007

We recently upgraded to Word 2007 from 2003. I updated a Word 2003 document, as I do every year, with minimal changes. When I converted it to pdf with Acrobat 8.1.5, two unexpected things happened. One, none of the hyperlinks converted--they've always converted perfectly in the past. Two, numbers were inserted in front of each bookmark. They're sequential, starting at 0B for the Heading 1's and counting through the Heading 2's, then the 3's to 29B (the bookmarks are three levels). Here are some screen shots. One is with the unwelcome numbers, the other is how the bookmarks should look.
I went back to last year's document (the new document is simply that document renamed and updated) and converted it, and everything is fine. The only difference I know of in the two other than text changes is that last year's is file name extension is .doc and this year's is .docx.
Can anyone tell me why these numbers are appearing in the bookmarks and why the hyperlinks did not convert?
Beth

Apologies to everyone--I managed to insert the wrong screen shot above. From reading further here, however, I see that you're all familiar with the problem. Adobe has not fixed it? My document is about as simple as they get. Hard to believe they would ignore such a widespread problem with even very basic conversions.

Advange of using Adobe Acrobat over Microsoft word 2007 PDF add -in

Hi,
I would like to know what is the advantage of using Adobe Acrobat 9 standard or professional over Microsoft Word 2007 PDF addin. Microsoft will ship the PDF convertor with SP2 later this month, in that case what should be the use of using adobe acrobat to convert a document to PDF and not use microsoft word built in features.
This is just a doubt which arouse and thought if I could ask here, thought to control some adobe acrobat licenses being used in our environment.

I have found that some of the links and other items just to not work well with the add-in from MS. However, with OFFICE 2007, it appears that MS has put some hooks in the system to screw up Acrobat. Typical pages that are produced with Acrobat get cut into sections (a graphic will be chopped into multiple graphics and pasted together). I say this is OFFICE only from the perspective that we have tried it with OFFICE 2007 and both AA7 and AA8 and gotten the same result. When we used the same file in OFFICE 2003 with AA7, the PDF was fine. So when you complain about the PDFs created by OFFICE 2007 and Acrobat, you may be seeing something that is a result of OFFICE, not Acrobat. Generally they still look good, it is only in some detail where you will see problems.
A major advantage we found with Acrobat is that it did not have issues with messing up the links that the MS add-in had. You can try some of this yourself, but that is a summary of our conclusions. Bill

Acrobat X and Word 2010 missing text

Has anyone found a solution yet to dropping text box text when converting a Word 2010 document via the PDF print driver? There are various posts on this topic but no real solution. Most resolve by using the "Save as Adobe PDF", which works but doesn't solve the actual problem. I have a specific document that we use extensively as a template to create other documents and the text in one text box is consistently clipped off when printing to PDF.
These are controlled documents done in Word that are kept in a limited access vault and need to be approved. Once approved, I create a PDF and put it in a public location. If I use the Save As option it works fine, except that it has to save the Word document before creating the PDF (why....? I haven't touched it...?). Since I'm working in the vault, the file is Read Only, so I have to browse out to another location, save it and then create the PDF. I get a lot of these and that's a very time consuming side trip, not to mention the extra file management of having to clean up all those files I needlessly created.
I've tried changing font to Arial, as well as making sure the background is set to No Color. No luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I had no problems using my Vista machine with Office 2007 and Acrobat 9. They upgraded me to a new machine with Win7, Office 2010 and Acrobat X and all those great improvements seem to have left me less functional.

Thanks, Bill!
Coincidentally, I had an AA update come in this morning. I checked Word (yes, it's 32-bit) and downloaded a couple of updates that were waiting (.NET security issues, not sure they're related?). But after the reboot I tried creating a PDF with the Press settings and everything was there. Better yet, I tried again with the standard settings and everything looks good! I verified by converting two or three other documents and everything's fine.
I thought I was stayingup to date but the latest updates seemed to do it! Thanks for the help!

Using acrobat pro in word 2007

I just upgraded to word 2007 and have acrobat pro 7.0.0. I
can't figure out how to save a document as a pdf! Adobe Acrobat Pro
shows up as an add-in in "word options" - Add-ins, but there is no
add-in tab, and I can't find any way to actually use it!!! Any
insight would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Try asking your question in the Acrobat Windows or Acrobat
Macintosh forum, as these forums deal with the Acrobat Standard of
Professional products and not the conferencing product Acrobat

Acrobat Pro 6 & Word 2007

Have a pdf document that I can open and edit in Pro 6. However, when I save out as a word.doc document and open it in Word 2007, all I have is an image of the document that I cannot edit.
Any suggestions as to what I'm failing to do?
Many thanks for any suggestions.

Original document was scanned in and then saved as a pdf - using software that came with a Kodak printer. It is editable within Acrobat Pro 6. If I turn off save images in the settings box in acrobat it fails to save at all. So I guess acrobat is just saving it out as an image.
It wasn't OCR'd.
But is there a solution?

Adobe Acrobat Standard and Pdf Conversion

I am not sure I am in the correct forum, but I recently purchased Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard and I cannot convert existing Word files, for example, to pdf. A message comes up: "PDF Conversion Failed." And that's it. No explanatory message or suggestion how to correct it.
I would appreciate any help.
Thank you!

Try these steps to see if things are working at all. If they work, then it is a process of going one step at a time until the problem is isolated.
1. Print a simple file to the Adobe PDF printer with print-to-file selected.
2. Open the file created in (1) in Distiller and see if the conversion completes.
If (2) is unsuccessful, you will get errors in the Distiller window indicating the problem. With success, the next step is to check if AcroTray is running, so simply print without using print-to-file. If it does not work, then look for AcroTray.exe in your Distiller folder. This application must be working if the print to Adobe PDF is to work correctly.

Exporting acrobat fields into Word 2007

Hi all,
I have a client who had an adobe document on his website which user fill out and then submit using Outlook. He now wants to create a form letter (in Word 2007) by using the data that the users submitted on the acrobat document.
In a nutshell, I have to export the adobe fields into Word. Being a total novice, I don't even know if this is possible?
I am thinking along the lines of some sort of a mail merge.
Thanks in advance.

Have you exported in the various formats and examined the created file?
FDF and XFDF are special formats for Acrobat forms.
Text is a text with tab delimited. The field names comprise the first row and each form's data is then listed under the first row in the same order as the field names in row one.
