Adobe 9 PDF Conversion Error

Hey Guys,
my system at work is a:
Adobe 9 Pro Extended
Word 2007 (German)
Windows XP SP3
I have a document saved with several graphics made from text boxes and the drawing tools from Word 2007. In addition, I have a header that is on some pages overlapped by a white un-transperent text box.
When I save it as .doc and convert it to pdf, using unmodified standard settings, it works perfectly.
However, when I save it as .docx and then convert it to pdf, the overlapped header shows although the textbox is put on top of it. In addition, only text and not graphical elements are to be seen in the pdf.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem? I would be very grateful if you could help me. This seems to be a strange error. The cause must lie somehwere in the settings although this is an out-of-the-box installation..
Thank you very much,
Stefan

Good. That simplifies things a bit and makes sure it may be related to the Adobe PDF printer. I was just keying off WORD 2007 as a potential problem for the export, but that is not the case. It is possible that you need to update the software. WORD typically has updates also and it might be possible that an update would solve the issue. It sounds strange that it is affected by saving as a DOCX file rather than a DOC file. That sure suggests an issue with WORD, but I am not sure.

PDF Conversion Error in Email

Hi Experts,
my task is to convert a smartform into pdf & download & email. in two different programs
download program i converted smartform using 'CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF' and its working fine with no problem.
and in email program when tried the same one, I have a error as the PDF file is damaged and could not be repaired.
So I used 'CONVERT_OTF', its working fine and can send emails to external systems with no errors.
Now my problem is in the email, when i open the attachement, i getting a error in Pdf file.
"Cannot extract the embedded font Arial. Some characters may not be display or print correctly".
Please tell me how to close this error.
Thanks & regards,

Smartfomrs to PDF conversion error

Dear Experts,
I have a requirement to convert smart forms to PDF.
After converting smartforms to PDF, I am getting the following errors.
1. Special signs like u201C&u201D, are shown as <& > in PDF.
2. Some line breaks which are in smartforms are not appearing in the PDF.
(How to handle the same during smartforms to PDF)
Thanks in Advance.
sri

Hi,
in more than once I´ve experimented the same problem. What I do is to replace the text in my form:
REPLACE ALL OCCURENCES OF '>' IN aux_text WITH '"'.
REPLACE ALL OCCURENCES OF '<' IN aux_text WITH '"'.
you can insert a line break like this:
CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF
but in both cases you must set a break point in your form where the text is processed to find out what´s wrong. It could be that system cannot understand some characters as HTML escape code. This is the case in web development when working with text boxes.

I have paid for a year subscription, but all the PDF's I attempt to export to Word give me a "Conversion Error" message, citing that the "file's security settings do not allow export." I want a refund. Adobe, please advise. Thank you.

Hi la recruiter,
There are a few types of files that Acrobat can't convert--and PDF files with security applied is one on them. I'm happy to cancel your subscription, if you decide that it's not going to work out for you. Please confirm that you'd like me to proceed with the cancelation, and I'll take care of it right away.

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.

Sara,
Please see my answers in bold below.
What browser are you using? Try clearing the cache, or using a different browser. N/A
Are you converting from within Reader, or directly via the ExportPDF website. Within Reader.I disabled the OCR and this did not work either. Try converting from within Reader, and disable OCR as detailed in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (OCR) when converting PDF to Word or Excel.
Are you on a networked computer? Make sure that there aren't any firewall/proxy settings that are preventing you from uploading files to the Internet. Not having problems uploading the file--that works fine.
Make sure the file is within the file-size limit of 100 MB. It is <40.
I get the error message, "File failed to be converted using Adobe ExportPDF online."
Thanks for your help in advance.

Error message when trying to convert powerpoint presentation to Adobe Acrobat PDF

When trying to create an Adobe Acrobat PDF file from Powerpoint (save as Adobe PDF from the Print menu), Automator gives the following error message: "an error occurred while saving the PDF file". Currently using version 14.4.6 of Microsoft Powerpoint for Mac, 11.0.09 Adobe Acrobat and OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on iMac. Also had the same problem previously with Mavericks and Mountain Lion. The problem seems to be the Apple Automator not working correctly with the Acrobat interface. I create Acrobat PDF docs perfectly well on my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.7.5) and am scared to update to the latest version of OS X in case that also affects the ability to create PDFs.
I have tried using Apple's own PDF creator, and doing this by first creating PS files then converting to PDF, however, many bugs appear in the files, and they are enormous - around 5x the size of Acrobat PDFs, so this is not an option. I have also tried troubleshooting with Adobe to no avail.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Jane

Hi star2111,
Please tell us a bit more about the error message that you're receiving, and where you're seeing it (in Adobe Reader, or the ExportPDF website?). It will also be helpful to know whether the error occur when just one file, or with any file that you try to convert.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Best,
Sara

I just started a free trial of the Adobe XI product that allows me to create an editable PDF. I'm done creating the form and ready to export it. When I click Export PDF from the File menu, it says Adobe encountered an unexpected error. What am I doing wrong?

Good to know — there is no such application as "Adobe XI".
"Adobe" is the name of the company.
"XI" is indicative of the use of either Acrobat XI or Reader XI.
Neither Acrobat XI Pro (for which Adobe provides a free, fully functional 30-day trial) nor Adobe Reader XI (the free to download and use PDF viewer that Adobe provides) have an "Export PDF" entry under "File".
"Export PDF" only is present in Adobe Reader XI over on the right on the "Tools" panel.
The "Tools" panel provides a way for a user of Adobe Reader XI to connect to various By Subscription online services (gotta pay eh).
Export PDF is one of these. A subscription lets you send a PDF file to the online internet service (aka "cloud" service). The service then exports to a supported file format (Word / Excel / ...) and the user selects / directs where the output file is to be saved on the user's local machine.
Of course to use any of the online subscription services one must have an active (paid up in full) subscription to the service.
So ---- As described the puzzle pieces don't fit eh.
What specific Adobe (the company) applications are you using?
Acrobat XI Pro? Adobe Reader XI? Both?
Be well....

Adobe PDF Document error pop ups while web surfing

I have a strange issue with either Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat. Randomly while looking at websites or loading a website an Adobe error pops up that says, "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try agian." Then after hitting OK a couple times a blank PDF pops up. After closing it another PDF file pops up. Finally after closing the second PDF window does it go away.
Adobe isn't even open when it happens. Also it happens when just clicking MSN on the favorites. Not even trying to open a PDF in Adobe, and yet this error shows up.
Please help me because I am very confused by this issue.

Chrome uses its own PDF viewer, not the Adobe Reader plugin.
Either use a browser that uses the Adobe plugin, or configure Chrome to use the Adobe PDF plugin: http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html
