Acrobat 9 standard - saving pdf as version 1.4

Hi,
just wanted to ask how can I save pdf documents as optimized version 1.4 (acrobat 5.0) documents, using Adobe Acrobat 9 standard?
I know that the pro version enables to save as...(and then choose the settings), use the optimizer, use batch processing or preflight, but none of these seems to be available in the standard version...what should I do?
Many thanks,
Yael

Thanks ☺
There is a way, found it yesterday…if you define a suitable profile (joboptions) through the distiller, and then print the file using adobe printer and this certain profile – you'll get a perfect pdf document ☺

  • Update acrobat 9 standard no pdf printer

    I updated Acrobat 9 standard with 947 and the pdf printer vanished. Then update with 954 and still not there.

    Tried repair. Didn't work. Discs are at home. I am at work (a store). This happened to me once before and someone in India (where else?) took over the computer remotely and fixed it. I phoned India a while ago but poor connection, could barely understand the accent and got interrupted a lot by customers. I think I will uninstall and reinstall tomorrow. It was an upgrade from 6, so I have to have the serial number from 6 to install. All a big pain. Problem is, I use it a lot for business and I have to get it up and running.

  • Acrobat X Standard Opens PDF files then closes

    I installed Acrobat X Standard on a Windows XP SP3 box. When I rebooted and had the user logon Acrobat would open a PDF but then close after a short period of time. There was no error message. The PDF document was reopened and then immediately closed after the user clicked on the document. What could be causing this behavior?
    The user is a standard user.

    Have they tried to open Acrobat first and see if it stays open, then open the document from the file menu? When trouble shooting such problems, the first step is to try different options to see what works.

  • Acrobat X; Standard; Saving error

    I'm running Windows 7 Pro w/ SP1.
    I've had this installed for well over a year and it's worked perfectly...until now...
    If I open a PDF, and edit it in ANY fashion, I can no longer save it and then get the following error message:
    "The Document cannot be saved. The file may be read-only, or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder."
    This happens on EVERY file I open, and I'm the only one in the file.  It should be noted that this only happens to PDF's on our server, and doesn't happen when it's saved on my local hard drive.
    This did NOT used to be the case as recently as 3 weeks ago. I've updated to the latest version, and even tried to do a 'repair' of the installation. I still get that same message when I try to save any PDF that has been edited in any form. In the past 3 weeks I've not installed any new software or made any changes to my computer.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Hi bbp-arch,
    You might need to turn off the protected mode by going to Edit> Preferences> Security (Enhanced) 
    Also, have you installed the latest patch of Acrobat X i.e. 10.1.13?
    Hope to hear from you.

  • Saving PDF for versions 4 and above

    How can I save a document to be compatible with versions 4 and above of Acrobat?
    FayeC

    Assuming you have the proper version of Acrobat, you can use FILE>Reduce File Size or use the PDF Optimizer in another menu. Both of these allow saving in an earlier version. They may only be in Pro and only in a version newer than what you have.
    A third option is to reprint the PDF with the AA4 compatibility selected. I think there is maybe a forth option in AA8.

  • Can Acrobat X Standard create PDF files from Microsoft Word, using "CMYK" color (required by most book printers) instead of "RGB" color?

    I'd like to purchase Acrobat Standard if it will let me control the color space used in the PDF it creates.  I need to send a color file to a commercial book printer, and they require the PDF file to use CMYK colors, not RGB.
    Will Acrobat Standard do this, and if so, how?  Or do I need to get a different Adobe product for this task?

  • Acrobat 9 standard save without changing pdf version

    Hello,
    I have a question, is it possible to save an edited PDF file (the original is in an old format PDF 1.3/1.4) in the same format it was before editing?
    When I have edited the PDF with acrobat 9 standard it automatically changes the PDF version to 1.6.
    Thanks in advance

    There is no PDF Optimizer under advanced in acrobat 9 standard
    Saving in older file format is only a acrobat pro option?

  • Can a file be password protected using Adobe Acrobat XI Standard?  No one seems to have answered this question in the trending questions.

    I just purchased Adobe Acrobat because it was recommended to password protect files.
    However, when I checked out the Tools > Protection > Encrypt>  "Encrypt with Password" is greyed out.
    Can a file be password protected using Adobe Acrobat XI Standard?
    The OS version is Windows 7.
    No one seems to have answered the question in the Trending Questions.
    Thanks.

    Yes, it can.  Use File > Properties, and click the Security tab. Click Change, and set what you need. When the file is saved, the security is set.
    BE SURE TO KEEP THE ORIGINAL FILE TOO.

    I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard version in Windows 8.1 and when I try to create a .pdf file, I receive the following error message "Acrobat could not open "file name.log" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged.  To create a PDF document, go to the source application then print the document to .pdf"  I am going to the source application and printing the document to .pdf yet it's saving the file as a .log file.  After reinstalling the software, I initially didn't encounter this problem but on my second and third attempts to convert files to .pdf format, this error message reappeared.  How do I resolve this problem?

  • Reading adobe acrobat 8 standard with adobe acrobat 7.....I have to submit a CD of a paper presentation to a state DOT and they have requested that "the electronic copy should be in a .pdf format, version 7.0".

    My files need to be saved to pdf today, and I am concerned that my Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard files may not be readable to someone who says they want the files saved in "pdf. format, version 7.0"......is that a misconception on their part, or do I need to do anything different?  If I install version 7, it will probably overwrite my version 8, correct?
    I appreciate any feedback to resolve any doubt of readability for the potential client.
    Thanks,  cdd

    In Adobe Acrobat 8 use the menu Document > Reduce File Size...

  • Adobe Acrobat X Standard does not open PDFs made by previous versions

    Adobe Acrobat X Standard keeps giving an error while opening PDFs saying that "this document requires v7 (or v8) or higher to be opened" making it impossible to open any document that was created with earlier versions. After the message the files open blank. I am using Adobe Acrobat X Standard. Any solutions?
    Thank you in advance!

    This alert was created by a JavaScript code (as you can see from the title of it), which someone obviously did not write very well.
    You should be able to open it if you disable JS (Edit - Preferences - JavaScript), and then you can remove this code completely (if the file is not secured).

    Unfortunately, what you describe isn't a common problem. It is pretty surprising, but hopefully it's a simple as clicking or pressing the wrong thing. So, to find this out we need to know, step by step, at the most basic level, what you click or type EXACTLY and what you see. That should let us get to the cause.

  • Can't convert files to pdf using Acrobat 8 Standard or 9 Pro

    I am having a major problem. I have tried converting both Word 2003 and Excel 2003 documents to pdf using Acrobat 8 Standard (I can't recall which version because I uninstalled and installed a trial version of Acrobat 9 Pro) and Acrobat 9 Pro. I have tried to convert directly from the open document and through Acrobat using create from file. In every instance the process starts and then stops after a few moments. When I try the conversion from within Acrobat, I get the following error message: " Pdf conversion failed, please correct the error and retry." When I try the conversion directly from Word or Excel, the conversion starts, stiops suddenly and gives no error message.  I have had Acrobat 8 Standard installed for a couple of years. It worked fine on this computer until the problem started a week ago or so. There have been no software or hardware changes that woudl trigger suspicion.
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the 8 Standard version. I have uninstalled the 8 Standard version and installed the 9 Pro trial version. I have run the repair module on both versions. I'm sure it is something simple but I just can't figure out what the "error" is that I need to "correct". Any suggestions?
    As an aside, I have several Adobe programs (Photoshop CS5, Contribute 3 and Acrobat), all of them expensive. Their business model of offering no unpaid support (even for this type of problem) is one reason I hate Adobe more than Microsoft... but I rant.

    When you uninstalled, you should have used the MS Installer Cleanup utility. It cleans up a lot of the junk left over in the registry. You should have also deleted the Acrobat folder. Then you would reinstall. You did not indicate your OS and it may be that you need to update the AA8 to get it to work correctly. Also, the installs and uninstalls can mess up your registration process if you are not careful. If you uninstall the AA9 trial, you will not be able to reinstall it for use. At this point, I can only suggest you do a repair of your installation and be sure you have all of the updates.
