Adding audio / music then saving file as pdf

I produce a monthly magazine using pages. Once done I save the file as a PDF.
I woud like to add a audio file or music file to pages then save it as a PDF and send it out.
Is there a way of doing this?
I know you can drag and drop a audio file onto the page but it disappears when you save it as a PDF and I do need the PDF format.
Any help?
Thanks!

You need to add all media files into the pdf using Adobe Acrobat Pro. Pages won't include them.
There may also be 3rd party apps and websites that do the same task.

Problem saving files to PDF in Illustrator CS4 [Mac]

Hi all,
I'm having a problem with saving files as PDF's in illustrator CS4 - something I've happily done for years until about a week ago.
It seems to be something to do with the "Save As" command. When I select Save As and then select PDF, the PDF saves as a copy of the current file rather than it saving as a file itself. It also doesn't rename itself properly. Saving a file in the .ai format seems unaffected.
The multiple page function also seems to be affected - I can create multiple pages no problem, but upon saving the PDF reads as a single page PDF in both Acrobat and Preview. Reopening the same file in Illustrator reveals that the extra pages are there, but not showing in the PDF.
Any thoughts? I've trashed preferences and repaired permissions, but no joy....
Any help greatly appreciated

Adding Audio to previous Edge file in new Edge v3. Audio files don't appear?

Hi All,
Pretty exciting stuff that there is a new Edge Version out with Audio! So I gave it a go on a project I have made previously and had been using Buzz Audio, which I had working fine, but this new version looks like a much cleaner way to go (snaps to everyone on the Edge team).
However I have immediately encountered a problem when adding the Audio files to the library using the "+" symbol. I select the files to add which are .mp3 format and select Open. There is no error message, the Audio library flashes as though a new audio file has been added but then is back to it's original state showing no audio files are available (yes i've checked the Audio drop down arrow sever times ) ?
I then tried this using a new blank document and the audio files added fine as expected.
Can't seem to find why Audio wouldn't add to my previous project file which is about 1MB in total size and created with the previous version of Edge CC.
Thanks in advance for any ideas,
Cheers,
Jeff

Hi Darrell,
Thanks for your idea, I have given it a go with the following results:
Saved the previous file as a new file, in a new folder location.
Loaded up the file, no errors, all good.
Loaded up the audio files into the library and they appeared this time, excellent!
However upon loading up these audio files it immediately generated the following error message:
"An error occurred. Please save your work and restart Edge Animate."
This message now appears every time I try to open the Edge Animate file, presumably when it's now loading up the audio library where I first got this error.?
However, the audio does play and the file seems to work... despite the less than encouraging message i'm getting. I've tried this on a few different files now and I seem to get the same error message result when adding audio to other older tutorial created files also... could it be possible it's not just me with this issue?
Thanks again for your help, hopefully we/someone can make sense of the error message that is now hanging over?
Cheers,
Jeff

Issue saving files as PDF

I have Windows 7 on my computer. I had to recently restore Windows on my computer and since then I can save Word documents as PDFs. Please assist.

Yes I think I understand the problem and I believe it is expected behavior and I will explain.
You must convert the images to cmyk in photoshop first before placing them in Illustrator or convert them after but since they are linked the conversion has to take place in photoshop by using the link panel to edit the original.
Now it should work as expected but I did this without the using a black key line on the rectangle I used for my clipping so once you have the rectangles position if you still find you have this problem then go bak and redo the clipping mask without the black stroke.
This is my result in Acrobat with the images converted to cmyk so I am positive you stated with RGB and did not convert before placing.
As you can at 6400% magnification it is fine. This is the top edge of the two butted images when saved as pdf after converting the files to cmyk in Photoshop. PDX 1a supports CMYK.
This is what it looks like when using the inked files when they are rgb

Print query regarding saving file as PDF/X-3

I have a magazine ready for print for a client that uses a printer to print it. I am wondering whether or not the PDF I send them of the magazine (from InDesign CS5) will have any issues if I use the PDF/X-3:2003 Standard. Compatability is set to Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3) and the document will have all necessary bleed marks etc. The reason I am using this standard is to stop the PDF creation process from not showing certain transparencies used with InDesign tools. It's a only a few pages that have this issue, where when I send them for proofing the effects from ID glow etc don't show up unless I use the PDF/X-3 standard which keeps them in. So I am just wondering if it is ok to send the whole document as this standard when it goes to print (will there be any other issues with it saved this way? If so I will probably have to save the pages in question seperately and them pull them on as PDF's to the ID file and then save normally. The print site is modern so I doubt they have old software but I don't know for sure.
Thanks for your time.

In terms of a “state-of-the-art” PDF standard for prepress, Adobe recommends PDF/X-4 for overall workflow and output reliability. It supports full ICC color management as well as live transparency. All major RIPs (and software updates for same) from the last half dozen years as well as Adobe Acrobat fully support PDF/X-4.
That having been said, there must be a “meeting of the minds” between the content creator/provider and the print service provider. If the print service provider can't support the PDF/X standard you wish to provide, you have two real choices - conform with what they want (and hopefully not suffer from the consequences) or find another print service provider.

Adding audio/Music is this a glitch?

When you have laid down the audio tracks and then go back to add additional audio, i find that it pushes any music that has been laid down forward that same amount as was added, thus setting everything from that point off on the music tracks line? is this a glitch? is there a resolve to this? i find this happens in imovie as well. . .you've got everything set perfectly to the nth and then you realize you forgot to add a small music track and you go back in and it sets the timing off the whole thing. . .any help with this one?

When you have laid down the audio tracks and then go back to add additional audio, i find that it pushes any music that has been laid down forward that same amount as was added, thus setting everything from that point off on the music tracks line? is this a glitch?
Nope. Not a glitch. It sounds like you're doing an INSERT edit when you should be doing an OVERWRITE edit.

Adding audio (music)to my project

I am trying to create a highlight video of all my sons football games. After spending hours learning ( new user for PE) I finally figured out editing out my highlights , it was much easier placing my clips in the timeline. I did not figure this out until half way through my project. I am all finished with my 10 minute video and unlinked the video from the audio. After reading some of the comments in the forum I might have a problem adding music into my project. The first part all my clips are in different tracks and the 2nd half of my video are in 1 track. Before I spend many hours again learning from my mistakes am Igoingto have problems adding one or two song to this video. If I am, what is the easiest way to solve this problem. Please any help is appreciated!!

No need to solve it. It's not a problem having your clips on whatever tracks you want, as long as it looks good to you on playback.

Saving file as PDF on Desktop I get notice "The Printer Name is invalid" How do I get a file to save as PDF?

Error saving file as PDF FM 11.0.2.384 Windows 7

"Can't launch Acrobat Distiller to create PDF file."
I cannot find Distiller on my workstation. I do not see it in the Control Panel. I also cannot find Distiller on the distribution media.
I suspect it is not installed.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Jerry

Hmm. It should not be this hard. I worked in software development for two decades and made stuff work. But I am quite frustrated. My workstation build is standard. My FM is current. This is not like I am expecting some little used, obscure feature to work. Saving a PDF should be mainstream. It's like spell-checker not working. Huh?
As far as I can tell these are the primary software components involved:
1. Framemaker 11
2. Adobe PDF Creation Add-on X
3. Adobe Reader XI (11.0.04)
4. Windows 7.
Am I missing any others or are any of the above not in this equation?
I've now worked through the advice given above with no luck but I should not have to rely on luck. I am trying to make a living with this software.
Thank you Amis and Mike for taking the time to respond to my request for help. It is very kind of you. I am new to this forum and in spite of my issue I get a very positive vibe with the way people help each other here.
Thanks again,

How can I increase resolution when saving file as PDF?

I am sending some illustrated files to a professional printing press that only accepts PDFs, however they say the resolution is too low and should be 300dpi. How can I increase resolution? Only option I could find was to try to create a new filter in Color Sync by duplicating PDFX3 filter and editing it to the desired resolution, however I couldn't get new filter to save my resolution inputs. Any help is appreciated!

You really need something like Acrobat which will install a "Save as Adobe PDF" under the PDF menu. You can select press quaility," "high quality print," etc., and get a true high res PDF.
If you'd like to just give it a shot, try downloading one of the OS X CS6 suites that include Adobe Acrobat Pro for a free 30-day trial. I've never used SketchBook Pro, but Acrobat may help you out.

Saving Files in PDF using third party plugin

I have been using the Office 2007 plugin "save as PDF" to convert all my office documents to PDF format. However, after upgrading my reader version to 9.0, each time I try to convert a document, the output is a jumbled list of words with no structure. I tried reinstalling Adobe Reader, but to no avail. Any suggestions?
I use Windows Vista SP1 by the way. The problem did not occur when I had version 8.1 of the reader installed. My computer is a HP with a Intel Dual Core processor and 2GB RAM Memory....

Yeah. I was going to say that you should just re-install Adobe 8.1.2.
Have you tried it?

How to detect alterations to a JPG image that has been saved as a PDF

I have received a file containing a cancelled bank check that was downloaded from a bank website and saved as a PDF of the screenshot. Upon opening the PDF, it appears that some of the original hand-written text in the image has been altered. I believe this PDfFwas originally saved as a JPG, then altered, then saved as a PDF. Is there any way to determine if indeed the text has been altered in the file? Thanks!

Not easily. The bank's original version may have been a JPEG, then a screenshot was taken of that and saved as a PDF with unknown compression. (really, who saves a screenshot as a PDF?)
You can examine the PDF in a text editor to see what created it. You can open it in Illustrator to see the layer data (which might show tampering).
Beyond that you'd need an imaging forensics expert to look for tampering with the JPEG compressed image data (was it compressed more than once, was something significantly altered)?

"Audio Music Apps" Folder

I recently upgraded to Logic Pro 10.0.7, I migrated from Logic Pro 9 before and have used Logic X ever since it came out.
If I try to load a Channel Strip Setting in the Mixer view, the menu is now completely empty, with all the Logic and Garage Band settings in a "Old Versions" subfolder. After doing some research I found out there are now three locations where settings are saved:
/Library/Application Support/Logic/
~/Library/Application Support/Logic/
~/Music/Audio Music Apps/
Saving new Channel Strip Settings defaults to folder 3. Content in folder 1 seems to appear in the "old versions" menu within Logic.
Is there any documentation about these folders and how they're used by Logic? Is it save to move my content to the "Audio Music Apps" folder, so that my settings appear at the top level menu again? Is it save to delete folders 1 and 2?
I'm currently on OS X 10.9.4, Late 2013 Retina MBP (2.6 GHz, 8 GB RAM)

First of all, DON'T DELETE FOLDER 1. This is a system folder that you should not touch.
Folder 2. and 3. are technically the same folder. They are pointing to the same files/folder on the hard drive. Try this: have bothe windows open and move a file into the Patches folder in one window. It will appear also on the other folder. Move a file into the Drummer folder. It will appear in the other folder too.
Leave Folder 2. It is just for compatibility reasons for Logic 9. If you delete it, the files would still be in the "Audio Music Apps", but you would have no access to them from Logic 9.
Everything you do in LPX, GarageBand X and MainStage happens in the same "Audio Music Apps". They all access now the same folder. This makes file management so much easier for the three apps because they don't need their separate Library directory anymore.
I explain that ned concept throughout in great details throughout my manual "Logic Pro X - How it Works". Here is just a screenshot from the Library chapter that discusses all those different settings files (Patch, Channel Strip Settings, Plugin Settings, EXS Instrument)
Hope that helps
