Acrobat bookmarks are lost when resaving the file

Hi,
I am converting a docx to pdf using Save as --> PDF --> clicking on options and selecting create bookmarks using headings and publish.
The conversion is done perfectly. However after encrypting, or changing a name of a bookmark and saving after that, the bookmark links are lost. When I right click on any bookmark and checking there link, there is nothing.
I noticed that if I use Microsoft Word 2007 with SP2 this problem is resolved. However, I have various pdfs already converted (and don't have the original doc) which I need to encrypt. However this is not possible to do so as they lose their bookmarks.
Is there a solution for this?

I am seeing a similar bug in Acrobat, and I am seeing it in both Acrobat 7 and Acrobat 9.
If I have an open PDF, and I choose File > Save As, then rename the PDF, all bookmarks are lost.
Gone. Poof. Bye-bye.
If I rename the file in Windows Explorer, the bookmarks are retained just fine.
This happens without exception. Every PDF file.
I simply cannot use the File > Save As command at all. Ever.
First detected it in Acrobat 7, and I am still seeing this behavior in Acrobat 9.

    Probably some form of corruption. If you already tried JetComp (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/295334) try copying objects to a new empty db. Chances are they all copy except for one. Of course you could
    go back to a backup as well, perhaps just to retrieve that failing object.

  • After updating to firefox 5 all my bookmarks are lost, and I can not find an old places.sqlite file. What happened to my bookmarks?

    I updated from Firefox 3 to Firefox 5 (Windows XP), and all my bookmarks are lost. Maybe I should have thought of making a backup but I did not think of this and previously after an update I could find them again. Now I can not find my bookmarks anywhere, all files in my profile have a date and time from the new installation. Is there any chance of finding my bookmarks somewhere else on my computer? If so, where are they and how can I restore them?

    Thanks for the answer. I read the article but it seems that the solution to my problem is not in there. Apart from the lost bookmarks Firefox is working fine, also I can make new bookmarks and delete them without problems. When I restart Firefox I don't loose them.
    Apparently after installing Firefox 5 everything of Firefox 3 was deleted including my profile. The only bookmark .json file I have is from the new installation, which means it does not contain any of my old bookmarks. It now has today's date and time.
    In my profile I have three 'places' files, now all with today's date and time:
    - places.sqlite (10240 kb)
    - places.sqlite-shm (32 kb)
    - places.sqlite-wal (865 kb)
    But even though places.sqlite is large, it apparently does not contain my old information. Or could it? Then how to get to it?

    This can also be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • TS3989 My Photo Stream works and I have iCloud control panel installed. The photo stream sync is selected, but when I go to the my photo stream folder on my windows PC there are no photos in the file.

    My Photo Stream works and I have iCloud control panel installed. The photo stream sync is selected, but when I go to the my photo stream folder on my windows PC there are no photos in the file.

    mlvov,
    I did as you said and went to the icloud control panel on my Windows 8 Laptop to be sure I was looking at the correct folder for my photo stream.  All my "shared" albulms pushed to my Laptop and are up-to-date with the exception of the "photostream" album. If I create a "shared stream album" and place photo's in it on the phone; I can see the photos on my laptop. I dont get it. I had a iphone 4s and had zero isues and now with my new nifty iPhone 5s it doesent work.
    What am I not doing correctly.
    Thanks,

  • Bookmarks are shown permamently on the left of the screen.How do I get rid of them,so that the screen is not limited. I also do not have "print" oe "file"tabs at the top. I think it is all too complicated.

    The Bookmarks are shown permamently down the left had side of the monitor acreen. I cannot find a way of removing them. I usually see the Bookmarks via the Firefox tab at the top left hand of the screen .
    You information pages refer to tabs such as "file" ,"print", "view" etc on top , but I do not have these either.
    I am afraid that I find this all too complicated

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).

  • Please clarify the purpose of sync. I thought of it as a backup tool and reinstalled windows and now years of bookmarks are lost. This hurts!

    I would like you to please verify the purpose of sync more clearly in the future. I had to reinstall windows and thought I could use sync to save my bookmarks. Now years of bookmarks are lost because the program was not specific in telling me about the recovery keys until it was too late. This put a huge dent in my productivity and really sets me back. I realize that nothing can be done at this point but please clarify this for others so that it doesn't happen again. This really sucks!

  • Part of path lost when importing autogenerated files

    Hope someone can help as can't find anything on the forum about this.
    Have two Framemaker 8 books, one of which contains all the files for a future publication, including LOT, LOF and IX.  This is the full publication but most of it is still heavily in draft.  The second book represents the first release of the publication and has only a small subset of agreed content.  The idea is that the publication will grow in time.
    The second book is in a subdirectory below the directory containing the first book and the full set of files.  It has its own LOT,LOF and IX.  It also links up to a few of the files above, the ones that are in the first release. The LOT, LOF and IX contain contain references only to these few content files. Have done it this way rather than put everything in one directory, as there will be a number of subsets, with multiple PDFs produced for review from each before the finalised PDF containing the current content to be released at any one time, and don't want them all in the same directory with the management problems that would introduce, and risk of people selecting the wrong version of a LOT, LOF etc. The content files with the actual text in are not duplicated in this subdirectory; the book just links to them in the directory above itself.
    All was well on one PC but needed to work on a second also. This second one has a different directory structure and it isn't possible to change it because of the different policies in place.  So copied the main directory and the other subdirectory beneath to the new PC.  All appeared OK; the lower level book found the files above etc.
    To clarify the structure on the second PC is this:
    \dir0\dir1\dir2\Content directory - place where the first book plus the preface, glossary/index and the other files in the draft book - the main body
    ..dir0\dir1\dir2\Content directory\dirA - place where the second book and LOT, LOF, IX are for the book to be published first (the .. represents some other directories from the root)
    (On the first PC, it was \dir0\dir1\Content directory\ and dir0\dir1\Content directory\dir A - and this is the shorter path from the root)
    When trying to generate the PDF on the second realised something had gone wrong and then found that the problem began in FMkr. The symptom is this:
    The LOT, LOF and IX autogenerated files are fine within the book, their links can be clicked and they go to the source files (in the directory above).  BUT these files aren't part of the actual publication.  The LOT and LOF are embedded in a Preface (one of the files in level above) and the IX is embedded in a Glossary and Index file (ditto). When these are imported into the Preface or Glossary as appropriate, whether by reference or by actually including the file, the result is the same - the links become non clickable and an error is saying that the file can't be found. The path is partly truncated - it excludes the directory where the files actually are.
    So for a link to the Introduction.fm file, FMkr says it is looking for it as ..dir0\dir1\dir2\Introduction.fm and not ..dir0\dir1\dir2\Content directory\Introduction.fm where it actually is.
    This occurs even if the whole structure is copied elsewhere to a place higher in the hierarchy. It isn't possible to reproduce the structure on the first PC because of the configuration of the second PC.  Have tried taking the LOT etc. out of the second book then regenerating them from scratch - they are fine, the links in them are fine, but when imported into the other files, the links miss out the directory which actually holds the source files where the links point to. Must emphasise this did not happen on the first PC.
    Any ideas gratefully received.

    Thanks Sheila, have now overcome my problem with editing the post (duh!)
    Hope the below is clear enough as cannot send an actual screen shot. Have discovered that the number of directories above in path is a red herring because the problem now happens back on the original pc when the book and files are copied back to it.
    Have tried creating a test book with only the index, glossary/index and one content file linked from directory above (i.e. test book at dir c level) and it is OK in the autogenerated index but then does the same truncation when the index is imported into glossary/index, i.e. looks for the source file in dir A.  If the source file is copied into the test book directory, the file removed from book and then the local copy added back in and the book updated/import redone, the links work. so it will find it if the source files are in the same directory.  However, this always worked before with lots of test runs and a few real reviews too.

    It would be really helpful if you might do a screenshot  of the File Manager hierarchy of folders and insert them into your posting, maybe use callouts to annotate the various significant levels -- a visual would really, really make it much easier to interpret what you're describing.
    >
    Sorry, not coming out very clear compared to viewed on PC. Directories are A, B, C - Dir A caption "The Directory above the content directory. Links in the subset book in Directory C look in here after they are imported into other files in the subset book"
    Directory B says "Directory B, the content directory, with introduction, glossary/index and other content files, plus main book, main index, main LOT, LOF. Some of the content files in here are also linked to from the subset book in Directory C"
    Directory C says "Directory C containing the subset book with its own index, LOT, LOF, plus links to introduction, glossary/index and a couple of other files in Directory B.  The links to files in Dir B work in the autogenerated LOT, LOF etc, but not when imported into content files (linked files in directory B) although this used to work. They now look for the content files in Directory A instead"
    Hope that makes it clearer.

    First be sure login and password are OK. Sometimes the address starts wit "http://..." and sometime starts with "ftp://...". Try both normal FTP access and Scure FTP access (SFTP). At the end, contact the site's provider.

  • Error when uploading; the file name is invalid, or the file is too big

    Hi, I have posted this topic also in this thread, but we are not getting any answer to this problem. Also, the existing discussion in this thread gives us no idea what to do.
    We get the a.m. message when using the "FILE-UPLOAD" UI element only for selected users and for these only in IE8 and not in Firefox.
    So we believe that the cause for the error is likely on the client side, especially in some IE settings.
    Is there any advice available what to look for and where to check?
    Thanks in advance,
