Adobe PDF presets...

I have an ID file open... I go to File... Adobe PDF presets... smallest file size. The Save As dialog box comes up with a different file name than the file that I have open and trying to convert to a PDF. This happens occasionally... most the time the file name in the Save As dialog box is the same as the file I am working on. I've got 32 files to convert to PDFs and I don't want to type the file name in the Save As dialog box. How do I get it to work properly?

This happens because the file was previously exported with a name that didn't match and was subsequnetly saved, burning that name into the file. You can fix it so it defaults to the file name again by exporting to .inx or .idml and outlined in Remove minor corruption by exporting (but it isn't really a file corruption).

How do I load an Adobe PDF preset into Bridge?

With InDesign I go to File>Adobe PDF Presets>Define>Load. I would like to do the same thing in Bridge so that I am using a PDF preset that I choose instead of the default PDF preset that is in Bridge. I need to know that the PDFs generated from Bridge and InDesign are being generated with the same PDF preset. I am using Bridge CS5.5 on a Mac. Thanks.

I don't think you can do this… Bridge generates it's *.pdf files using the cached *.jpeg previews… Try with some vector files and you will see the result is nothing like ID… If you want them to be the same standard then use ID to make the contact sheets…

Why are the adobe pdf presets grayed out in photoshop?

Why are the adobe pdf presets grayed out in photoshop? I'm trying to save an image to "Press Quality" as a pdf and the settings are grayed out.

Maybe a screenshot of your Photoshop working area with the image opened, image tab and the layer panels showing might give us an idea. I can't guarantee that I can help, but someone might be familiar with the situation.
Also a screenshot of the Save as Adobe PDF and the PDF settings dialog as separate shots would also help as well. That way we see what you see.

Where are the Adobe PDF Presets stored?

I am doing some video lessons and would like to clean up the Adobe PDF Presets menu in the Export as PDF dialog box.
Where are they stored?
I've looked through the many folders on my machine called "Presets" but can't find them.

Here's a great opportunity to file a feature request. In InDesign CS5.5, Preferences > File Handling displays the location of recovery files, and offers users the option to choose a custom location. It would be a great logical step to make the locations of the various presets and other stored items available and also offer users the option to customize. Care to file a request in the usual place - Adobe Feature Request or Bug Report form.
As preferences, these details are out of the way, yet are much easier to find than searching through a disk's file system.

PdfExportPresets.add - name becomes default "Adobe PDF Presets 1" - bug?

Hi,
I am not really a programmer and completely new to scripting. I just want to create a very simple script that I can use with a panel created with Adobe Configurator.
I'm trying to load new joboptionsfiles (.joboptions / PDF Export Preset) via a script. I found/slightly adapted the script that does this:
app.pdfExportPresets.add(File.openDialog("Choose a File: "));
But: this will change the name of the job option in the list to the default "Adobe PDF Presets 1". When I load the same joboptionsfile the normal way (via File > Adobe PDF Presets > Define), it does show the correct name.
Is this a bug in the scripting, in my script? Is there a workaround?
Thanks!
Eddy

>>I'm guessing it's pointless to question why Adobe Reader is trying to resolve a domain name by sub-domain only (i.e. www vs. www.adobe.com)... but I was able to resolve our issue by modifying the hosts file as such:
>>x.x.x.x www
>>I really don't like this fix though for obvious reasons.
I can't come up with an plausible explanation for the partial lookup other than it being a bug If your are using the pdf-files exclusively from one site ie. your local network setting up the entry in the local dns would probably solve the issue for all your users. However if you have users accessing the files from other parts of the internet it becomes a very tedious exercise. As an alternative to the hosts file solution, you could consider disabling netbios over tcpip all together which also bypasses the lookup. And as a last option, accessing the pdf by ip, however when using https this is not an option.
However, the REAL solution to this problem would ofcourse be a patch from Adobe, nudge, nudge, wink, wink, anybody listning

Try starting acrobat to amek sure all si in working order, as that is where those presets come from.

Difference between Export and Adobe PDF presets..?

Hi,
It is possible to export a PDF from InDesign (CS3) using both the Export menu and the Adobe PDF Presets menu (both are sub-menus under File)
Technically they seem to do exactly the same thing, both allow you to use predefined presets to export your PDF.
What I am wondering is, are there any differences between the two? And if so, what are they?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

PDF Presets are what they are Presets. You may get a joboptions file from someone to use and use the PDF Presets to load the joboptions (pdf options) file into the Presets.
Then they become available in the Export Options.
Alternatively you can go into the PDF Presets and then choose to Save one of your presets to file, then email that or give the file to someone else to load onto their computer in their version of InDesign.
This way you can both have the same PDF export options.
But the presets are just a way to create, save, load and edit profiles that are available when you go to Export to PDF.

Adobe PDF Preset: Save Presets

I'm trying to locate where this data is kept for this preset. I want to save PDF files on several machines with the same PDF preset settings. I will do this manually if there is no other way.

These are actually .joboption files.Try setting one up as you want in the PDF options panel of the Save dialog and give it a name. It should be saved to HD>Users>yourname>Library>Application Support>Adobe>Adobe PDF>Settings. Try looking there. You can then put copies of the preset in the same place on any computer you want to use the same preset.

Cannot load or create new adobe pdf presets in CS3

Keep getting this message. "Cannot create the file. The folder may be write protected."

This has been reported before, and there are a couple of possible solutions, as I recall. One, if I remember correctly is to, first make sure the folder permissions are correct, then to check and be sure the correct folder actually exists. There were a number of locations created by different versions of the suite, and I can't tell for sure which is which on my system, which isn't a lot of help. I have "Settings" folders at "Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\adobe pdf", "Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe PDF" and under my user profile,"Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe PDF", which is where the test settings I just created ended up. You should right-click on any settings folder you find and check the properties > Security tab and make sure everyone has full permission. If you don't see a "Settings folder in one of these locations, try creating it. I also vaguely remember something about a registry edit, but I have no idea what that was so you'll need to do a search in the forum. Peter

Choose an Adobe PDF preset for converting files

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/X/standard/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7 f12.w.html

I have tested this two ways online:
Open a PDF file with OCR capability
SAVE AS “appropriate file name”
                SAVE AS TYPE PDF/A (.*pdf)
                Preflight setting = SAVE AS PDF/A-1b
Just re-tried this and it worked!; I can “find” !
Open a PDF file with OCR capability
SAVE AS OTHER “appropriate file name”
                ARCHIVABLE PDF (PDF/A)
Just re-tried this and it also worked!: I can “find” !
Guess I must have done something “strange”, but no problems, now.
Thanks for your help & patience.

How to include security settings into InDesign PDF presets?

I have prepared an InDesign template for multiple users in my team. Ihave created a set of PDF presets for exporting PDFs to keepconsistency. I want to protect all the PDF files with password and haveto include the password protection in the PDF presets. But InDesign PDFpreset is not supporting the security tab.
Currently I have suggested the batch command in Acrobat Pro for security settings.
It would be much helpful if Adobe help me in this.

riott.girl wrote:
Using the File>Adobe PDF Presets, chose anyone of the pre-existing Adobe pre-sets--not one that you've created.
Change the settings to the pre-sets you want, including the security settings, and then click "save preset".
That would be an nice easy solution, but there is no access to security settings in the PDF presets.

PhotoShop CS2 and PDF Presets question.

Hello,
I have installed the recent free release of Adobe Photoshop CS2 on my Win 8.1 PC.
I am creating the artwork for a CD Cover, by using a CYMK template from CD-Baby.
They require that the finished artwork be submitted to them in PDF format, using the [PDF/X-4:2008] preset.
I found that Photoshop CS2 didn't come with this preset, but after searching the web, I came across this forum whereby a user posted a link to a "JobOptions" archive file at...
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16243351/joboptions.rar
... I downloaded this RAR file and found that there was a file inside called "x4;2008.joboptions"
I installed this preset by the 'EDIT/Adobe PDF Presets/' route, and it seemed to successfully install the preset.
(No errors at least).
Now when I go to save my finished project as PDF, I am given the choice of...
* [PDF/X-1a:2001]
* [PDF/X-3:2002]
* x4;2008
(this is the exact description of each preset).
My only question is, do you think the desired [PDF/X-4:2008] was correctly installed?,
I'm not sure since the naming format is not exactly the same as the first 2 presets descriptions.
Thank you.

thanks for your reply Mylenium.
is it possible that this user preset might not exactly conform to the desired preset I'm after?
is there any way I can get a genuine copy of the factory preset [PDF/X-4:2008]?
thanks.

InDesign CS3 PDF Presets disappeared

One of my Macs that has been working fine for a while has suddenly lost it's PDF Presets. I should maybe say misplaced, as they are available in the File>Adobe PDF Presets drop-down menu, but not via the Print dialog.
Dual 2.3 G5, OS X 10.4.11, InDesign 5.0.4, Acrobat 7 instead of 8 due to Quark, Quark 6.52

I ran through the usual suspects; repair disk permissions, update OS and CS3. No luck. I stubmled upon the link below, again, and manually set permissions for the Application Support folder. It works again (for all accounts).
