Acrobat rejects HTML files on Mac ... ??!

hi folks, I'm using acrobat cs3 on both Mac & Pc.
I often convert HTML pages I design into PDF's to email to people.
on the pc, "no problem".
on the Mac, "unsupported file type" or some such error.
what's up with that?
thanks for any comments.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. No. iWeb does not read HTML files. It creates them when publishing the site. If you don't have a backup copy of the domain.sites2 file you'll have to recreate the site but can use some of the image files that are in the published site.
For future reference I recommend you download and use frequently Varkgirl's Automator application for backing up the domain file. You can get it at Varkgirl's iWeb Tips and Tricks site.

How do I update web template HTML files on MAC

I'm running lightroom 4.3 on a PC. The web template needed a few changes making, mainly the layout and replacing links for images etc., I could not find a way to update via lightroom so I changed the detail.html and grid.html files directly in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.3\Shared\webengines\default_html.lrwebengine. Now I need to make the same changes in lightroom 4.3 on a MAC, but have no idea how to locate the same files and update?
Please can someone help me?

The equivalent location on the Mac is:
//Applications/Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4/Contents/PlugIns/Web.lrmodule/Contents/Resources/galleries/default_html.lrwebengine
To see either of the Contents folders in the above path, you have to Command/Right-click on the previously mentioned file (Adobe Photohsop Lightroom 4 and Web.lrmodule) and choose Show Package Contents.

Web sharing - viewing html files from Mac to PC

I am creating a website using QuarkXpress. Now I uploaded my html and image folder directly to my Site folder. My client has a PC, but cannot open the http address to view the page. Web sharing is on, also file sharing. What did I miss?? Thanks for your help.
I highlighted websharing in system preferences and gave my client my computer address. But the page does not load?
What's the difference from a remote computer and local IP range? I am confused there???

Do you have more than one device connected to your Router or Modem?
To see the difference between local & Remote, compare your IP in System Preferences>Network>TCP/IP tab & what your outside IP is...
what's my ip...

downloaded acrobat reader 11 onto my Mac Book Pro, it can open the file but will not print. Get a message that says PDF cannot be printed, however, I forwarded it to someone else and they could print it, no problem. I called HP and spent an 1hour with them and then called Apple support and worked with them for 3 hours. No one can figure it out. Is there something wrong with this version? the pdf was created in 2004. Do I have to pay to get Acrobat?

Let me give you a slightly different perspective than everyone else here. You are using an unsecured wireless network, which means that all your network traffic is easily available for viewing by anyone else using that network. That's bad. Very bad, for you, unless you absolutely trust everyone who lives within range of this network. So stop doing it.
As to the Mac not connecting, wireless networking is simply too complex for any reasonable answer without more information. There are many possible error points, and as often as not it's the Mac that can connect and the Windows PC that cannot. Since you can't give us any information about the configuration of the neighbor's network, and can't make any changes to it, we can't do much to help you troubleshoot it.

Custom html file with pix and links as Mac desktop display?

Hi, in Windows it is possible to select an html file to use as your desktop display...pictures, web links, and links to network and local folders, files, and applications can be written directly into the html page. It was actually really nice.
How can this be done on a Mac?
It would be great to have personal pictures, text (poems and to do lists) displayed as the desktop background...with links to files (inspirational .mov files, recently used files, even the html file for the desktop itself for quick changes), links to start applications, and links to favorite websites...all accessible from the desktop itself.
Alternatively, would these links need to be placed in the dashboard or expose or ? Would the text over a background image in html need to be composited into a static image file?
thanks

I don't believe there is a way in the Mac world to specify anything but image files to be used as your desktop.
I might suggest that you open the HTML fileof your choice in a browser, and take a screen shot of the output. Then you can assign that screen shot to be your desktop.
Command-shift-4 will give you a crosshair cursor to drag around the area you wish to capture.

Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

Hello, I have transferred my Acrobat XI Pro from old MAC to the new one. After the transfer can not open any PDF file. Any idea how to solve this?

Hey ilyaz20360341,
Could you please specify how exactly did you transfer Acrobat from one MAC to other.
You might need to deactivate the software from your old machine and then activate it on the new one with the same serial number (for Acrobat license) or Adobe credentials (for Acrobat subscription).
If you have done the same way, then let me know if you are able to open Acrobat itself.
Do you get any specific error message while opening a PDF?
Hope to get your response.

How to generate PDF file from HTML file using Acrobat API's

Hi,
I want to generate a PDF file from an HTML file on server side(C# .Net).
Their is a COM interop called "AcrobatWeb2PDF" availaible but could not find any document regarding how to use it.
I cant use "Adobe live cycle PDF Generator" as we just have license for Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
Please help...
Thanks and Regards,
Anand Mahadik.

> It is hard to believe that Adobe doesn't provide a toolkit for generating PDF files, so many web based applications have vector based content that needs to be converted to PDF!!!!
They do, it's just not free (A company in business to make money? I'm sure IBM would never think this way... ;)). As mentioned you have Adobe LiveCycle PDF Generator, which you can customize and extend with Java. You also have the Adobe PDF Library SDK, which is written for use with C/C++ although if you license it from Datalogics (the only company in NA Adobe allows to license the PDF Library) you will also get .NET and Java interfaces (part of the DLE - DataLogics Extensions).
> There must be a way to generate PDF dynamically on a server or from Javascript!
JavaScript? Not really, no. As far as I'm aware JavaScript has no file system access capabilities without some form of intermediary (like sending the data to a webservice that writes it out to file). How would you create a PDF file with JavaScript?
The PDF Standard is also in ISOs hands now (ISO 32000-1:2008), it is no longer owned by Adobe - you can download a copy of the specification from them and write your own library based on that as well.

Acrobat 8.1 Pro .mht And Some .html files Do Not Convert To PDF

Acrobat 8.1 Pro with Windows Vista. .mht files are saved complete webpage single files similar to complete html files except they're as a single file instead of a file and a folder. When using Create From File, Acrobat does not recognize .mht files and will not convert them to PDF. Some complete .html files will not convert using Create from File, even though Acrobat does recognize them.
Also, when I'm logged into a website and want to convert a webpage to PDF using Create From Web, often the resulting PDF document is of the login page and not the page I selected with the error message "can't locate file". These difficult webpages can be converted to PDF using the Print Adobe PDF function, but hyperlinks are not preserved with this function.
I would like to be able to convert all files (including .mht) and webpages to PDF while preserving hyperlinks. Can anyone help me with this?

Bruce,
mht files are not standard html files. Acrobat will not handle those. If
you are on a website that most be logged into, then Acrobat cannot get
to those files since it is not logged in. You can print to pdf, since
your browser is logged in.

Print to File Acrobat Pro X for OS/Mac

Opened a file and edited within Acrobat Pro X for OS/Mac.
I added stamps and text boxes.
Within Windows computer I would go to print, Adobe File.
When I do the same with in Mac, it read "Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save."
When I follow this procedure, the text boxes and stamps are editable.
I want to save / print the file, so file is "locked" meaning text boxes and stamps are not editable.
How is this done???
See video http://screencast.com/t/y6vXU2xQ1

A better approach is to flatten the flatten the pages, which converts the comment annotation appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with the following JavaScript statement executed in the interactive JavaScript console (command+J):
// Flatten all pages
flattenPages()
Even better is the following JavaScript-based utility: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

Mac - navigateToURL opens default application for .html files instead of browser

On Mac I have Adobe AIR version <string>3.1.0.4880</string> and I have selected TextMate for .html file as default application. With this configuration when I call navigateToURL in my app to open browser, it opens TextMate instead of default browser.
Following is the simple code to open URL:
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
navigateToURL(urlRequest, "_blank");
Is this known issue? Any workaround for this?
Thanks,

Since you've remapped what your default response to .html files are, you can't use navigateToURL() or openWithDefaultApplication().
So it looks like you'll need to use the NativeProcess class:

How can I convert a .pdf to a single file HTML file in Acrobat 9 Pro?

I need to convert a .pdf with active links to a single file HTML file. Any advice?

LGINSB wrote:
Yes, but it's saving it with files associated. I need it to be a single file version. Thanks for the reply.
Of course it is. It sounds like what you want would be just a .jpg. Web pages are seldom ever just one file unless they are strictly text. More than likely you have some images (maybe even images of text) involved so you could never get one file.

How do I Open an HTML file for iOS?

How do I open an HTML file for iOS using acrobat?

This is a forum for Adobe Reader for iOS. Acrobat doesn't run on iOS. You need to run it on a Mac or Windows computer. In Acrobat, you can choose File > Create > PDF from Web Page to do what you want. You cannot do that in iOS.

Trying to restore adobe acrobat 8 professional for the mac version 8.3.1

Is there a specific site for this product? I was directed to the Acrobat XI Pro site, but my serial number will not work for that product. Any suggestions?

Mikem if you were able to get Acrobat 8 to install in Mac OS 10.8.5 then it is likely the only functionality you would have would be the ability to edit PDF files.
I am sorry but I don't know of any method for you to get an additional copy of the installation files. If you do have your software registered you can qualify for the upgrade pricing for Acrobat 11 Professional. You can find more details at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html?promoid=JOLIR. You can also find a free 30 day trial if you have a PDF you need to edit at the moment and you wish to evaluate the software.
