Attempting to work on a pdf, after exporting to.docx and attempting to download, document has very long file name that will not save. I need to work on this document!

"View Pdf After Exporting" Moves Acrobat to Background

Wow, even this forum is buggy. I just lost my entire post because the "server wasn't responding". That'll teach me to copy and paste my post into a text file before hitting the Post Message button.
Here goes again:
I've tried getting an answer for this problem in the InDesign forum with no response after a week.
OSX 10.6.7
Acrobat 9.4.3
InDesign 7.0.3
Conditions:
Step 1) Only InDesign is running. I make a pdf with the "View Pdf After Exporting" box checked. The pdf is created, Acrobat opens and displays my pdf for me as it did in 8 and before.
Step 2) With only InDesign and Acrobat running, I repeat step 1 above, I get the same result EXCEPT that Acrobat immediately pops into the background.
This never happened with any version previous to InDesign CS5 and happened before I installed Acrobat 9, sending Acrobat 8 into the background.
This is a very frustrating bug.

View PDF after export - grayed out

I JUST upgraded from CS3 to CS4 and now this box is grayed out in my PDF export options. So I now have to launch the PDF manually instead of it being automatically launched after being created. Am I doing something wrong, or is this option no longer available?

Well, I guess it was Halloween and some ghosts got into my update because now I am able to choose the "View PDF after Export" option. It was not available when I tried to edit the PDF preset but it's available once I actually use the preset to generate a PDF. Go figure.

"Viewing PDF After Exporting" is grayed out!

I am using Adobe Design Premium CS5 (specifically Adobe InDesign). When setting up a new PDF preset, I have selected for compatabilty Acrobat 8/9. The problem I am having is that the selection for "View PDF after Exporting" is grayed out. What can I do to get it usable?

Thank you for responding so quickly. The tech team here at school moved all my files and programs to another drive, in the process they lost all my preferences, PDF presets, and more. So I am trying from memory to reconstruct all the tweeking I have done in PHotoshop and InDesign over the last two years - and I am not doing so well. In the past I have had the ability to select "Viewing PDF after Exporting".
As for restoring the preferences - that is out of my league and will have to suggest that to the tech team.

If I buy the Adobe Export PDF for $23.99/yr - will that allow me to work with a PDF fillable form -- then rename and save that form?

I don't know if this is the right section but I experience the following issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI installed on Windows 8.1. When I start Acrobat the related window opens normally but, after some scroll up and down along the document, it blocks, Acrobat doesn't respond to any command I can give and, in place of the pointer arrow, a vertical bar, as the one of the text editor appears. The only way I can stop Acrobat is by means of the task manager. I tried to de-install and the re- install Acrobat but the behaviour is always the same. What can I do??

Have you opened Acrobat and gone to Help>Updates to get an updated install?

Shaded areas on PDF after exporting from Indesign

Hello, I'm working on booklets for work using Indesign. So far most of the information in the booklet have been placed by PDF files. My supervisor sent me another PDF he would like added to the booklet. My problem is when I placed the PDF onto the page it looks fine but once I export the booklet from Indesign to PDF you see shaded areas on the page. This has never happened before and I can't seem to fix it. Does anyone have any ideas?

So the sidebar frame is a native ID text frame? I see two shaded areas inthe screen shot that interect that sidebar, and neither of them seems really related to it in any way.
Are you willing to share the file with me for examination?
Have you tired the standard Troubleshooting 101 steps: Replace Your Preferences and Remove minor corruption by exporting?

Doted stroke irregularities in pdf after export from indesign

Hi,
I have created a grid of doted strokes, the doted stroke have a repetition of 0,25mm, and the thickness 0,4 pt the strokes are duplicated 5 mm intervals x and y axis.
In indesign the preview is perfect and the dots are perfectly aligned but when i export to pdf it generates misalignment with the dots.
If i make a eps export and destill the file it works.
indesign cc and acrobat 11

How does it look if you print it, (from Acrobat)?
I suspect it's just the Acrobat display. Try this:
In Acrobat: Edit > Preferences > Page Display > Enhance Thin Lines...untick

Viewing PDF After Exporting from InDesign

G'day from Australia.
My name is Steve, I do a bit of freelance work from time to time but I'm also employed by a Christian Minstry in Brisbane.
Recently I have encountered (and not just me but my manager as well) that when creating a pdf from InDesign, Acrobat is launched for me to preview the document but it then says that it can't open the document because it is either a wrong file type or because the file might but corrupted. However if i go to the exported document and open it manually it opens fine without any glitches.
I've searched the web to see if there are any answers to this issue but could not find any.
We use Adobe Design Premium CS4 on Windows based machines. All our files though are kept on our own local server. The server however is not run on microsft software but on a Novell Software system. Before we went with Novell we used to use windows server software and there were no issues with exporting and previewing pdfs straight from InDesign. Not sure if its related but I thought i'd mention it just in case.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Steve.

What you are describing sounds like some type of file locking or caching problem on the Novell Netware side. I suspect that when InDesign's PDF export completes, it closes the PDF file on the server, immediately calls Acrobat to open that file, but on the server, either the file is still locked from when InDesign had it open for output or perhaps not all the file's blocks have been written out to disk yet. By the time you then try to manually open the PDF file via Acrobat, the timing issues have been resolved on the Netware side.
Adobe applications use standard Windows file operations to create, open, close, read, and write files. There is no cognizance of whether the file is local or on a network and if on a network, what type of server is hosting the file.
For what it is worth, Novell Netware is really obsolete server software. The last version, Netware 6.5, was released in 2003 with the last service update for NetWare 6.5 from Novell in 2008. You didn't mention what version of NetWare you are using, but if you have anything other than NetWare 6.5, I could imagine some really serious disconnects between modern Windows client desktops and the server software.
You indicated that you didn't have any problems with a Windows Server. I am amazed that any organization would migrate from Windows Server to Novell Netware anytimg during the last six to ten years, although I suspect there was some reason that somebody thought was good. However, your organization most should seriously consider moving back to Windows Server. Your PDF viewing problem is probably only the tip of the iceberg of problems you may potentially encounter.

Not able to open PDF after export

Hi
After executing webtemplate and clicking on the print buttion, the pdf application is asking the user to save the application, when click on the save, i get the error msg saying that the format is not supported.
This happens when i change the properties in the EXPORT command, Instead of selecting the webitem as default, i select few web items. So i get the error.
But
If i dont change anything and execute, i get the PDF file without any problem. My export template is 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN_EXPORT.
Why does it happen like tat.
Thanks'
Annie

Dear Annie,
Is info field present in your own created template?
If not, it wont be available in the dropdown box to select. Since you are selecting individual web items and not 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN_EXPORT in which the Infofield is available, it wont be available.
So, you need to have web item 'Infofield' included in your own created template. But then, if you include it, the variables and filters will also be visible on the report.
Best thing to do is, create a copy of 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN_EXPORT and in the copy template, use all the web items you need to display in print pdf layout and then bind this web template in the EXOPRT command.
Hope this helps..!

Can you type text on a PDF after exporting from ID? "Fill out a form"

If i design a simple form in ID can I export an editable PDF to email and others can type and print it?

BUT, Acrobat 9 is really good at recognizing what should be a form field in a well constructed ID document that you export, so it should be fairly painless.

Double Spaced PDF after exporting from Microsoft Project

As of recent, every time I save my Microsoft Project Schedule to a PDF version the output is double spaced.Within Microsoft Project there is no double spacing. I've been unable to find any type of setting or configuration to correct this problem. Any ideas? Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Austin ,
I would like to know few things before we assist you further .
Which version of Acrobat are you using?
It could be file specific.Is it happening for any specific project you are working on ?
What happens when you try to print it?
Try updating it to the latest version .
Launch Acrobat>Navigate to Help>Check for Updates .
Try this once if you are using any of the previous versions of Acrobat and see if this helps .

Picture disappears after exporting to Excel and saving.

Afternoon,
I appologise if this question has been asked before, but I did try search past posts.
I am using CR4E, the latest version.
I have designed a report with a Logo in the Page Header. (JPG). If I export the report as a Excel Report (Page Based), the
Picture is displayed as expected.
I can open and close the Excel Report as many times as I want and the picture remains. BUT as soon as I make a change to the
spreadsheet, and save, the Picture disappears.
I have tried using a BMP file, but still the same, I have tried having the picture in different sections but no luck.
If anyone has any ideas as to how I can keep the picture after saving the Excel version I would be greatly in your debt.
Cheers
Darren

Morning,
I have managed to find a work around, although I am not 100% why it works but it does.
I was unable to find a solution to the problem using the Eclipse version of CR, but I found a version of CR2008 at the office, and
using that, inserted a OLE Object attached to my Logo (JPG) and placed this OLE object on the report. My original Picture of the logo was left in its correct placement.
With this OLE Object, it appears that I am not able to export the XLS file and then manipulate the spreadsheet and save as many times
as I wish and the logo remains.
The only issue I have with the OLE Object, and this is probably down to my lack of knowledge, is that the Object contains
a text reference to the file name "Company_Logo.jpg" and that it. It does not display the picture or anything but the text.
I am then unable to hide this text or change the colour of the font to "hide" it. What I have had to do is make the object as small
as possible and place it in the bottom right corner of the report and hope no one notices it
So as you can see my solution is not the greatest but it is working.
Krishnan, I tried you suggestion of moving it the picture object back and forward did not help, and then your File Export Options
idea is not possible in Eclipse Crystal Reports (not that I could find). What version of CR would you be refering to?
Thanks for the suggestions/help.
Cheers

2 page PDF not exporting to docx (Word file) correctly

Good day to all,
My professors sends his notes to us on a 2 slide per page PDF file. Each slide contains very little information, hence I find its best to convert it into a word file with columns. It usually reduces the total number of pages from 34 to around 4 (a fairly significant difference). The problem is that I don't know of any program that can do this while maintaining the images as correctly editable. I've created this video to better describe my issue.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDsC_GEs3SQ&feature=youtu.be
Essentially it doesn't convert into Microsoft Word properly.
Also I've uploaded the 2 files. The first is of the raw pdf file which I'm trying to convert
http://www.mediafire.com/?0qhd475zc0jl6e4
The 2nd file is what I am trying to achieve. In order to do this I had to take screenshots of all the images individually and then type all the text myself. This is a very time-consuming process and there must be an easier way to attain the same result MUCH faster.
http://www.mediafire.com/?1st3elge9xc5s4u
Any advice, hints, tips, programs to make this an easier process would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!

I got some marginally better results than your video. You changed the borders to white. I simply selected the borders with the object touchup tool and deleted them. It is not clear if you are using AAX or earlier. The save that retains the format in AAX uses text boxes that are hard to deal with. I am using AA8 for this test and apparently it is not well set in terms of tags. The tags are used by Acrobat to tell MS WORD where to put things. My word version was OK, but it would still take a lot of work to get to the end product you had. Why not just ask the prof for a copy of the original notes. If he does not want to share them then you may be treading on thin ice with your process anyway. The example does look nice relative to what the PDF of the PPT or whatever looks like. However, you are getting into an area that may border on some university policies that you need to be careful about, even if your intention is simply for studying.
