Background does not save to PDF

Mac OS 10.4.11 Acrobat Pro CS4 - Saving an A4 file from Illustrator or InDesign with a complete colour background to PDF leaves out the background - see attachment. Even if I remove all the elements in the file and save it still leaves out the background. I have tried several resolution settings, used spot plus CMYK colours and flattened before saving to PDF. Never had this problem with previous version of Acrobat.

You are not using Acrobat in creating the pdf, so you are better off asking in the ID or Illustrator forum. Please tell them exactly how you are exporting your pdf files and what setting files you are using.

Added Background does not appear in PDF

I tried this and had problems - opened up a Catia sample in Toolkit, used 'Open Background' to add a jpeg background (blue waves). Worked fine, and when I exported to .u3d, then opened that, I could see that the background was there as you'd expect - behind the 3d Catia sample.
However, when I placed the .u3d file into an Acrobat3D pdf, the background disappeared (just saw the default gray). Tried with other examples, same thing.
Do you know why this is happening? Thanks.

Thanks, sws
I'll have to experiment - what is slightly confusing is that changing the background for one item seems to keep it there for the next. So maybe when I opened up the saved .u3d and 'saw' the background, it was not so much saved in the u3d, as being added by 3d Toolkit itself.
I'll add it to my growing list of experiments.

Background does not show up when creating a PDF in InDesign

I have placed the same image in Illustrator and the PDF does show up the image.

Ooh. Ok. Thank you! I'm using InDesign CS5.5, Acrobat 10.1.6. Mac OSX (10.6.8).
Layer 1: background (TIFF): does not show up
Layer 2: Type and logos (EPS): do show up in my pdf.
-When I select Overprint Preview in Indesign the background is missing.
-I have created pdfs in different presets (smallest, high quality, etc) and still background does not show up.
-When I place ONLY the background on a new InDesign document, it does show up in the PDF.
-I have created a pdf with the background in Illustrator and it does show in my PDF.
Thanks!

Illustrator CS6 does not save PDFs to artboard

I have had this problem more than once. The first time it happened, I uninstalled AI and did a fresh install which fixed it for a short time. When I save a PDF out of AI, it does not save to the artboard constraints.
This is a screen shot of my AI document which has 2 pages.
When I save as PDF, this is what the file looks like:
(Pg 1)
(Pg 2)
After the original file has been saved (incorrectly) I can open it and save it again and it will be fine. Any ideas?

Here's my test of a similar file in AICS5
and here's the PDF
Got the same in AICS6 with the second artboard as a copy of the first as you've done.

Acrobat 11.0.5 PDF Maker does not save attachments in Outlook 2013

I had lots of problems getting PDFMaker to work in Outlook 2013. Finally with 11.0.5 ver it appears to work.
Unfortunately....when saving attachments it does Not save the attachments.
This is a very serious problem as I am dependent on archiving emails.
Does anyone else have this problem. Is there a solution.
Looks like I need to use non Adobe product...... which is crazy.

Hi gnits999,
Please make sure that you have set the correct PDFMaker settings:
Go to Acrobat plugin in Outlook -> then click on 'Change Conversion Settings' -> and under 'Settings' tab check following highlighted option.

Error from reports from ZAM(Graph or PDF) - File does not begin with '%PDF-'.

I just noticed today that any Graph or PDF report I try to view I get the
following error - Error from reports from ZAM - File does not begin with
'%PDF-'. I tried to just save the file and then open it, but get the same
error. I can open other pdf files I have downloaded from other sites ok.
Anyone have any idea? I haven't done anything to that server that I am
aware of in quite a while.
Thanks
Bill

I took a closer look at the files it downloaded, opened them with notepad,
haer is what it says:
XSL Transform or subsequent processing failedThe document has no pages.

Acrobat 9.4.2 does not save/export all graphic formats

Dear all,
Obviously i had my glass of wine to early! See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/798630 for the whole story of my re-re-re-istallation of Acrobat.
The installation of 9.0 from the TCS2 DVD was OK
After update to 9.2 my tests displayed correct results for all desired tasks
After the update to 9.4.2 i obviously did not test thoroughly enough (hence the glass of whine).
Later it turned out that 9.4.2 does not save/export graphic formats:
pdf (all flavours), eps and ps are exported correctly
html (all flavours) export a html file and the image as jpg correctly
jpg, jp2 does not save anything, and no error message gives a hint
doc, rtf save issue error message "Save As failed to process this document. No file has been created"
png and tif do not save anything, and no error message gives a hint
xml table and xml export correctly
txt (both flavours) are exported correctly
Hence the only method i can get a picture is to export as HTML and through away the HTML... or: enlarge the picture as much as possible on the screen and take a screen shot.
What is missing in this installation?
During my re-re-re-installtions some Windows updates may have happened.
Any help available for this issue?
Klaus Daub e

The story goes on and hopefully Adobe has an answer/fix for this
There was an automatic update from 9.4.2 to 9.4.3, but the problem still existed.
So I decided to uninstall Acrobat and re-install it for the nth time: start with the installation of 9.0 from TCS2, reboot, update to 9.2, reboot, update to 9.4.3 and reboot again.
The result is very mixed (and this was alrady with the newly installed 9.0):
Save as RTF or DOC creates RTF and DOC files - although the contents is not that useful.
Save as PNG is OK
Save as JPG, JP2 or TIF works, but it turns out, that the files are all PNG (although with the various extensions)!
Creating a snapshot now works correctly. The clipboard receives a bitmap. However: although I have set the preferences for the snapshot to be of 96 dpi the bitmap gets the property 72 dpi!
Setting acrobat.exe to be Compatible to XP SP3 does not change a jota.
Keep in mind: on Windows XP things worked correctly for a long time. Switching to Window 7, x64 creates this strange problem.
I need to start with Acrobat from the TCS2 DVD, because otherwise I do not get the correct implementation for working with FrameMaker.
I'm very reluctant to buy Acrobat X, for me there are too many gimmics there (besides the costs).

I get the firefox pop up "do you want to remember this password", but it does not save it. There is no "yes" option on the pop up. How can I get Firefox to save my passwords?

I want Firefox to save my passwords as it has in the past, but now it is not doing so. I am using version 6.0.2, I see the pop up asking to remember the password, but firefox does not save the passwords. What can I do to correct this so FF starts saving my passwords?

Firefox 4 and later versions place a key icon on the location bar that allows to (re)open the dialog to save the password at any time. 
That pop-up dialog has a button labeled with "Remember Password". 
If you click the arrow next to that button then you see the other choices ("Never Remember Password for this site", "Not Now").

Srikavi,
Which rendering engine are you using? BI Publisher? Apache FOP? Did you follow the steps outlined here when you configured PDF printing:

Report Template does not save

HI,
I am creating a new report template. On save I get this error: Error occurred while saving the document template; save again. Although I save again, it does not save the layout. At this stage I don't check the symbols as I have not yet created any into the layout. Even though I say 'check', it does not save at all.
Can anyone help. I have checked the File locations for Template folder to be correct C:\....\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPgui\wwi
Am on GUI 7100.3.12
Patch 12
Any recommendations ? Thanks

Hello Sanjay,
It seems to be DMS configuration issue. May be your system is trying to store the template document to external database by using "kpro". Please check for following two configurations:
1. Go to Basic Data & Tools-->Report Definition >Settings for Document Management>Assign EHS doc type to DMS doc type Here for doc type "SBV" , Ty. should be "SBV" and Data Carrier should be "SAP System" if you are not specifying any external server for document storage.
2. Next, Go to Basic Data & Tools-->Report Definition >Settings for Document Management> Check Doc types and doc statuses. Go to the "Details" of doc type "SBV", and uncheck "kpro" if checked.
If you have configured external server for WWI docs, then you need to define different data carrier.
Please tell if it solves your problem, otherwise you may be probably having problem with your document status management.
In that case, you may like to refer following SAP notes in sequence.

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes and App Store on my iPhone? Nothing happens if I click buy for apps or music. If I then go to settings/iTunes App Store my Apple ID is not there. If I then enter ID and password it does not save or link to account?

Why is my Apple ID not working in iTunes or App Store on my iPhone? When I try to buy apps or music it asks for Apple ID so I enter my info and nothing happens. When I go to settings/iTunes App Store my Apple ID is not there. When I enter my ID and password it does not save or link to account. I do not have this problem with iPad ID is stored and can be used in App Store and iTunes. I have just upgraded to 5c and it's still a problem.

When fist setting up your new iphone you will be asked to log in with an apple id and password. If this did not happen you can then do as you suggested going to settings to itunes and app store and add your apple id login. This apple id login must have already been created for the iphone to accept it. If this apple id is already created but is not being accepted by your iphone you then should shut down your iphone and restart the device.
Good luck.
