Annoying error when saving file as a PDF (error ID=54)

Over the past week or so we have had a error that is driving us nuts. When working in a AI file and trying to save as a PDF we get this error: "Cant save the illustrator file. File may be read only, or the file is in use, or you dont have the required permissions. ID=54". Anyone have a work around? We have to go back to file and re-save every time. Thanks

Just saving to the computer.
I dont see how permissions could be a issue since it lets me after save to a PDF after I close the error box and re-save again.

Font issues when saving file as a PDF

How can I update my fonts so that I can save the document as a PDF? I get an error message and a separate popup window stating 'The "HelveticaNeueLTStd-BdIt" Font is not available.' I have some cross-referencing issues going on. Can anyone help resolves these?
Thanks

When generating a PDF, what do your PDF settings look like? If you have the "Rely on system fonts only" option selected (see screenshot), you probably do not have the font in question (HelveticaNeueLTStd-Bdlt) installed on your system.
If you are not relying on system fonts (this option is unchecked, which I don't believe is good practice), the font might not be available in FM. I don't know what version of FM you're running, but in FM10, you could try opening your file, and go to View > Pods > Fonts to display all fonts that are currently being used in your document and all instances of each font. Usually all missing fonts are replaced with "Times New Roman", so you can use the font pod to replace those instances with the correct font (if available in FM. Check Format > Font to see what fonts are available).
I would definitely double-check that the font you need is actually installed on your system. I ran into the same problem, and that was my issue.
For the cross-references, you need to provide better information. What is the issue? Are the xrefs not displaying correctly? Are the links going to the wrong place? etc.

When saving files from the internet, why doesn't Firefox 'know' to put .jpg files in "Photos" and pdf files in "Documents"?

When saving files from the internet, why doesn't Firefox 'know' to put .jpg files in "Photos" and pdf files in "Documents"? IE always saved photos in the "Photos" file and documents in the "Documents" file. Firefox makes me choose every time. Very annoying.

How about if Firefox is programmed like IE in this ONE thing...
When saving files from internet sources, if the file ends in a typical photo extension such as .jpg, .bmp, .tif etc. it defaults to save it in your PHOTOS folder.
When saving anything like a .doc, .pdf etc. it defaults to save it to your DOCUMENTS.
You could still change it to 'desktop' if that if really where you want all your photos and documents... or some other folder that you decide, but DEFAULTS to the LOGICAL folder.
I have carpal tunnel SO bad that even typing this suggestion is painful and having to make the extra click along with moving the mouse EVERY time I want to save something is painful.
ALSO, I shouldn't need a bunch of ADDONS to accomplish this. I tried downloading one and it did nothing. The problem still exists.

Photoshop CS6 – Error When Saving Files

When saving files using Photoshop CS6 I randomly receive an error message that states 'Could not save image_name.tif' because of a program error'. Sometimes a save-as works but not guaranteed. The file is being saved to a mounted server volume and sometimes the only way to get the file on the server is to save to the desktop and then copy the file back to the server. The error message does not appear on any other Adobe applications, just Photoshop.

Moved from the Creative Cloud to the Photoshop forum. They will be able to help you here.

Script to require user to update comments in info window when saving file?

I work in a print production department where many different people are modifying files (InDesign, photoshop, Illustrator, etc.) on a central network every day. Users copy the file they want to work on to their desktop, modify it, and then replace the original on the network with the modified version.
It can happen, though, that either someone doesn't save their work back to the network--or the opposite, where someone inadvertently overwrites a file on the network with a version that isn't as recent. Unfortunately, the information window (the one that you can access by right-clicking a file or, in the Finder column view, clicking on the "Get Info" button) doesn't identify the most recent user of a file--just the date created, modified, last opened, etc. When files on the server are incorrect for whatever reason, it can be difficult to figure out what happened. This info can be entered manually in the "Comments" field, but users either forget or are too busy to add that step into their routine.
Can a script to written that will prompt/require them to add at least their initials, date last changed, and for what reason, in the comments field before saving? It would be ideal if the script could somehow prompt users to do this only when saving files to the network--or, failing that, at least only prompt them once if they're just saving a file they've already dragged to their desktop back to the desktop for backup reasons.
Is this possible? Truly, I know almost nothing about AppleScript, but someone here was really, really helpful last week with a file-comparison script that has saved lives already. I'm trying to learn more, but meanwhile, I thought I'd ask.
Thank you so much in advance!

I can't see any way of doing this.
It would require hooks into every application's Save dialog, which just isn't an option.
The only possible way it might work is a folder action on the network folder that somehow adds the username to the comments field of any file as it's transferred to the server. Not quite the same thing, and I've no idea how folder actions work in a multi-user environment but it might be worth a try.
The problem may be that every users' system will see the new file getting added, so every system tries to fire off the folder action, with unpredictable results.

Modified Date is off by 5 hours when saving files to External One Touch 4

Have Googled and searched forums here but can't find an answer anywhere, but please do direct me if I've just missed it...
I back up files via Linksys wireless server to a Sentry Maxtor One Touch 4 external hard drive (originally used with PC) without problem except for the timestamp. Modified Date is always exactly 5 hours earlier. For example, if I save a file to my Mac desktop and to the external hard drive at 7:05pm, then the desktop file properties will show a modified date of 7:05pm (accurate), but the external hard drive file will show 2:05pm (off by 5 hours).
Any ideas?

Thanks for the welcome and your speedy responses, Michael and Joey. Although my technical skills are limited, I'm sure the drive is still NTFS as I did nothing to update it from use with our PC since we still have one of those in the house using the hard drive (unfortunate, I know).
However, I did just try a cheat with the time setting on the Linksys wireless server. Although I had confirmed it was correct before, it hit me that maybe I could change it to GMT-England and that would result in correct timestamping. It worked! Of course, the PC will probably be off now when saving files, but I haven't checked that yet. Any other issues/problems you think I may encounter by doing this?
If not, then I can live with the cheat. Thanks again!

Can I enable autocomplete when saving files?

I'm a Mac newbie. One of the Windows features I miss is autocomple when saving files. I tend to work with .jpeg files and name them sequentially, and Windows would help me out by bringing up similar file names. I could then just change the sequence number to make a new file. Is there any way to enable or add this type of feature in 10.6?

Hi,
I have done that with the ftp adapter. In the .xsl file I wrote the following after the <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" ....> tag:
<xsl:variable name="INFILENAME" select="ehdr:getRequestHeader('/fhdr:InboundFTPHeaderType/fhdr:fileName','fhdr=http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/ftp/;')"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="OUTFILENAME"
select="ehdr:setOutboundHeader('/fhdr:OutboundFileHeaderType/fhdr:fileName', $INFILENAME, 'fhdr=http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/;')"/>
<opaque:opaqueElement>
<xsl:value-of select="/opaque:opaqueElement"/>
</opaque:opaqueElement>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
To use this with the file adapter, you would have to wirte file where is written ftp.
Hope this helps,
Zaloa

Error when Saving Files ID=-39

We are using CS5 on iMac and get the following error when saving:
Can't save preview, but all other information was saved successfully. The file ended unexpectedly. Try using a backup copy. ID = -39
Generally after receiving this error the file is corrupt.
What can we do? Do you need more info? I am not sure what to do with this error.

Most probably that is your problem.
Try if saving to your hard disk solves your problem.

Frame 9 crashes when saving files

I experienced multiple crashes yesterday when saving a Frame 9 (version 9.0p196) book file. I received internal errors 9004, 5296195, 5297125, and 5754179. I've been using this Frame version for several months without issue and successfully saved a book file minutes before the crash. I located and sent the log files to Adobe. Any thoughts on how I can correct this problem would be appreciated as I'm currently unable to work in Frame.

Here are the answers to your questions:
* What flavor of XP
Windows XP Professional, v.2002, Service Pack 3
* How much RAM and free space are on the system?
1.96 GB RAM; 81 GB free space
* Are the files local or on the network? Did they start life as FM 9 files, or are they older FM versions, or content converted from another ap, like Word?
The files are on a network drive. We're long-time Frame users, so the files started life over time and several Frame versions. We're using Tech Comm Suite 2, upgrading from TC Suite 1 several months ago without issue. I worked in these files frequently over the last few days and had no problems until yesterday.
* Did this just start, or has it always been like this?
The problem just started. I had successfully saved and published a book to PDF, closed the files, and opened another book that includes three files. I made some minor changes, but when I tried to save the files Frame crashed. Both books are less than 20 pages and contain the same text inset. I don't know if the text inset has any bearing on the problem, but thought I should mention it.
* How many open files are you talking about? Does the crash seem linked to more or fewer files -- will it work OK with 6 open, but always crash with 9?
I successfully opened, saved, and closed a single file and a different book with three files. Neither book contained the text inset I mentioned above. I've successfully opened the books with this particular text inset previously and can't think of anything I did differently before the crash.

Browser freezes when saving or printing to pdf

I have windows 7 and acrobat 9. Lately, when I open a pdf document from an Internet browser screen I am both unable to save it or print it to pdf. When I save nothing happens. When I attempt to print to pdf it stalls at the screen where it allows you to name the document. In addition, today I received the error message from acrodist.exe that the JP2klib.dll was not found. What is happening? Why? and What should I do?

thanks so much for helping walk through troubleshooting. i tried the print to file and it did react the same as when I do save as. basically the screen blinks, does not freeze, but I am unable to find a saved file anywhere. I checked the properties and it is setup that it is supposed to give me the prompt to save with a specific name in a specific place but it isn't doing so. I looked in downloads, appfiles, desktop. I even tried looking in recently filed and searching for all .pdf. and .ps files on my c drive and can't find anything.
actotray is running in the background. in addition, when I tried to print to pdf without the print to file clicked, i noted that additionally the following were running acrobroker and avgcsrvx.exe.
i did the repair installation but am experiencing the same problems. Should I try to uninstall and then reinstall? If that is the only solution I will try that later on in the week because I am currently just using the email option as a workaround to this problem and that should get me through the week.

CS6 Pshop - Alerts at startup; "All Readable Documents" not defaulting at opening; Format in file name not same as Format list when saving file

Just downloaded CS6 Design Standard. System - OS10.6.8 (about to upgrade to 10.8), iMac 27 i5Intel 4core 12GBram 2.66Ghz
As Pshop opens, I get three alerts...
1 - Could not load Enable Async I/O module because does not work with this version of Photoshop
2 - Could not load Multiprocessor Support module because does not work with this version of Photoshop
3 - Could not load FastCore Routines module because does not work with this version of Photoshop
Then asks if I want to be connected to internet or something like that. Then Pshop opens even before I click OK
None of these happened with CS5.5
I realize CS6 is 64bit. I have CS5.5 set at 32bit because of plugins.
Two issues I've noticed so far with CS6.
1 - As I open a document, the Enable selections drop down at bottom of window is not set on anything. I have to always select the All Readable Documents. Not the case in CS5.5 which was always default at All Readable Documents. Could not find anything in Prefs to this issue.
2 - When saving a document, whether RGB or CMYK, the drop down Format selections are not accurate. The first three or four do read correctly as correlating with the suffix (.jpg .tif etc) in the file name at top of window. But then the subsequent format selections below third or fourth one read as the one above it in the list.
eg: as RGB file: Saving through BMP indicates same in file name at top (.bmp). However, the next choice below that, Gif, still shows as .bmp in file name at top. And so on to bottom of list. Same with CMYK file.
Never saw this in CS5.5.
When I initially installed CS6, I noticed only item in the Plugins folder was Panels folder.... no other plugins. I thought this to be a download error of some sort and dragged basic plugins from 5.5 into 6 Plugins folder. Could this be the problem? Otherwise, I would have NO plugins in CS6
I have downloaded CS6 twice now thinking the first was corrupted. I used both download options on Adobe page - Akamai and standard
Same issues with both. One response stated this all to be a plugins problem. I have uninstalled "after market" plugins from both 5.5 & 6 SuperBladePro was the only one. Restarted CS6. Still same problems. Only items in Plugins are what came with program.

I owe an apology to the previous responder Chris C, to this issue. I misread his solution thinking he meant I needed to delete ONLY the "additional" plugins like SBPro. Which I did. But rereading, I see he meant ALL the plugins I dragged from 5.5 because the 6 plugins folder was empty.
I thought it was corrupted in download. So if you guys get points for solutions, be sure Chris gets a few since I responded saying it did not work.
In fact, after removing the 5.5 plugins from 6, everything is working fine.
Plus I didn't know the 6 plugin folder was for the "after markets" like SBPro which is good to know.
Also thanks for the fairly quick response. I'm typically dubious about forums as troubleshooting solutions.
Kinda like sending a message in a bottle out to sea. Never know when it's coming back.
Sometimes issues are urgent. Your response team has encouraged me greatly :-)
But still bummed that Chats do not support CS6 however.

When .ai files are actually PDFs

So, in an earlier thread today, AI or EPS?, Wade questioned whether .AI files are really PDFs.
I did a survey just now with Illustrator CS5 (15.0.2) on Mac OSX, on a document with a single letter 'p' (400pt Myriad Pro Regular). Saving in all current and historical Illustrator formats:
Bytes
Format
"file" output
226448

CS5.ai

CS4.ai

CS3.ai

3.ai
PostScript document text conforming DSC level 3.0
Now, I realize you might not trust the "file" program... If you're not familiar with it, according to the manpage:
file tests each argument in an attempt to classify it. There are three sets of tests, performed in this order: filesystem tests, magic tests, and language tests. The first test that succeeds causes the file type to be printed.
But it just does some crude (and not-so-crude) pattern matching.
You can also run some reports in Acrobat Pro. For instance, running "Report PDF Syntax Issues" produces two identical reports, except the AI version has a Color space section (different uuids, diffrent embedded subset font names, etc.). That's not very helpful.
Browsing the PDF contents does show some more information. Indeed, half of the file size difference is color space information, though I'm not sure what the other half is:
There are other subtle differences.
Convinced yet?

No one's harmed as we all know this since forever.
It is wel documented on the forum.
By not saving it with the pdf option check reduces the size a great deal many users use it to save master files and then do a save as with the option turned on when they place it in another application.
In case you are not familiar with this option turned off and printed to a postscript printer the file will print properly even if it does not display the right way.
At least that is my understanding.

How to retain font-size when saving filled in form (pdf)

Hi,
I have a pdf form from an organization and when I fill in the (text)boxes, the more text I put in there, the font-size will adjust to fit everything in. However, when I save the pdf file and view it in a different pdf reader the font-size is too big and half of the text is not visible.
Also, the form contains some checkboxes/radiobuttons. When filling in the form they work just fine, but when saved and viewed both the yes and no are checked, even though I only checked one of them.
Anyone have any idea how I could fix this?
Thank you in advance
(using: Acrobat XI 11.0.0)

Ow.. I don't know the solution yet, but maybe something went wrong earlier with someone else who filled it in partially. I found the original on the internet and that seems to work so far.
