Bitmap image won't show after converting HTML file to pdf

I have a program which saves a technical report as a HTML file. I don't  have another choice as to file type to save as. This program has a  template which generates the report....and there are fields which are  filled in...some text fields, and one is a company logo. Just to be  clear the logo itself is not in the template, a holding place is there  which points to the location of the logo on my drive. This is all set up  by the program and can't be altered.
If I save the logo as a jpg, png or tiff file, the logo shows up in the  final HTML report and if I use Adobe Professional (version 7.0 on Win XP)  to create a pdf the  image also shows up - a perfect replica of the report is created in pdf,  making it convenient for printing and email.
If I save the logo as a bitmap file (which creates a higher resolution  and sharper looking logo) the logo shows up in the initial HTML  technical report, but when I convert this to pdf the file is not found,  instead it shows as a small square red box with the error "Bad file  image" or "unable to download image".
I can't understand why this would be the case as the logo is saved in  the same location whether it is jpg, png, tiff or bmp. It just seems  that the Adobe Pro doesn't know how to "find" the bitmap logo from the  HTML template. 
I did try converting the HTML document to Word but it threw the  formatting out and when it was converted to pdf it cropped the page  & I wasn't able to resolve this...maybe it can be done but it is a  long way around in any case, particularly if steps then need to be taken  to correct the formatting.
At the moment the document can be printed with success from the original  format - then it's a matter of scanning the printed document in order  to email. It can't be emailed directly because of the embedded  information which is lost if then sent to the recipient's computer.  However it would be nice if the doc could be converted to pdf which  would then make it easier to transfer the file to a backup drive or for  email.  Any ideas? Thanks

Thanks for your response. Yes I did mean .bmp files.
The problem is not getting it to show in HTML - but Adobe then picking it up from there. I guess though if it is not a standard format for HTML then maybe Adobe has trouble recognising it if it is there. Also, it is possible for Adobe to convert .bmp files if they are inserted in the HTML file, but I have instead a template with the code for the location of the file rather than the graphic itself.  I don't have this problem using the other file formats and getting them into pdf...it's just that the images aren't as sharp as the bmp. I have tried various formats and resolutions so if there isn't a way I can get the bmp from the HTML file into pdf I might just have to live with printing and scanning from the original. Thanks for your input, it confirms what I was thinking. I'll leave this unanswered for now in case someone else has further information.

  • After converting a file to *.pdf

    After converting a file to *.pdf and saving it, how do you set the program to open this file automatically?

    No, I want  the file to open automatically, not to start the program on starting the computer. That way, I do not have to open the program, and open the file from the location just saved. Applies for any version of Adobe.

  • How to convert HTML files to PDF files.

    Hi,
    I have an urgent requirement explained below:
    I need to convert my HTML files to PDF file from JAVA program.

    Try FOP and XSL style sheets. Although RPWithey is
    correct that there is nothing to magically change a
    viewable HTML file to PDF you can convert a single
    HTML file to XML and use FOP to create a PDF. You will
    need to manage the transition though.
    If you want to change a random HTML file into PDF
    dynamically this would take quite a bit more work. You
    might be able to use JTidy to convert the HTML to XML
    and then FOP to get to PDF but it will likely not be
    formatted the way you wish.That's true - FOP does do that, doesn't it. It must have to make certain assumptions about the appearance of the output. If the output from the stylesheet is an HTML file, you might be able to bypass that bit altogether. I haven't really looked at FOP, although I've read the overview. Check it out at http://xml.apache.org/fop/index.html.

  • Sliced Images are Broken after Converting HTML into a PDF

    I am trying to create a PDF of a webpage and after Acrobat converts it, the page is broken apart in multiple pieces. I noticed that this is happening to images that are sliced. Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening?
    Thanks!

    Just to clarify, I only want a PDF image of the web page -no functionality of it. The equivalent of a "print-screen" of the page without the IE window/toolbar etc. I need to have it in PDF format for printing purposes.
    ASP code is also appearing in the PDF and I don't want this to occur.

  • Adobe Acrobat 8.1 STD & MS Project 2007 crash after converting project files to PDF

    Need some help. Currently I create complex projects schedules (3-7 pages in length) and then convert to a .PDF thru Adobe Acrobat 8.1STD and although it takes a little bit, it does create the .PDF file. However when I open in Adobe Reader and try to scroll pages, it crashes and closes out Adobe completely without any error message after about 5-10 seconds. I run MS Office 2007 Small Business and all other conversions in Excel and Word are working just fine, it is only between these two software packages. Any Suggestions??

    AA STD 8.1.2 Correction, I do not have Reader (Only other Adobe products are Adobe Flash Player ActiveX and Adobe Shockwave Player) on my PC but when I open the PDF it does open in AA STD 8.1.2. Also, have tried this on other PC;s and same problem occurs and we e-mail these PDF's to our consultants and they are having the same problem whereby they are unable to scroll view thru the document/PDF and unable to print it out on their end.

    Do your images show, if you disable the option "Do not import duplicates"? If yes, then check, if the images have already been imported, eg. using Photo Stream, if you are using Aperture 3.3 or later.

  • I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack but it won't allow me to convert any files to pdf or combine multiple files to into 1 pdf form. It keeps saying "Error occurred while trying to access the file". WHY

    I purchased the Adobe PDF Pack for $7.50/month (or $89.99/yr) but it won't allow me to convert any files to pdf or combine multiple files into 1 pdf form. It keeps saying "An error occurred while trying to access the service". WHY is this happening & How can I fix it?

    Hi hpmg,
    It seems you are trying to access the service via Adobe Reader. Make sure you are signed in with your Adobe ID. Is Reader updated to the latest patch v 11.0.09?
    It might be possible that a firewall or antivirus might be breaking the connectivity from Reader to the server.
    Try accessing the service from the browser: https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf  and check if that works for you.

    is there any third party API's available.
    Please guide me.
    Thanks in advance

    Could it be that you're really interested in extracting specific values from the html file and then you want to export these values to csv and/or excel?

  • Converting bmp file to pdf

    Hi all,
    Please help me to solve this:
    1) convert bmp file to PDF( using FM) .
    2)There can be many such bmp files ..append them to single pdf file after converting them.
    Thanks and Regards,

    As has been discussed many times here before, you can't really merge PDF files programmatically in ABAP after they have been created.  Your best bet with this 'unique' requirement is to use a form-based approach I think.
    With a smartform one approach is to create a single page with a window with a graphics node (dynamic name) in it, with the bitmap name specified in the form interface.  Unless you have already loaded the bitmaps in the graphics manager (SE78), you would load the bitmaps at runtime from the presentation server or the application server and then create the graphics dynamically using the methods of class CL_BDS_DOCUMENT_SET prior to calling the form for each bitmap (a topic discussed recently in the ABAP forums or you can view how SE78 does it by checking the code).  Create a merged spool and then use the standard function to convert the OTF data to PDF format.
    A similar approach can be used with Adobe forms, but you would need to load the bitmaps to the web repository, not the graphics manager.
    What exactly is in the bmp files and where are they stored?  Are they form templates?  You may get a better answer with more details.

  • Error: EXOpenExport() while converting xlsb file to PDF

    I am getting this error while converting .XLSB file to PDF using IBR :Step PDFExport forced conversion failure by conversion engine because of error: EXOpenExport() failed: no filter available for this file type (0x0004). Can anyone tell me how to resolve this issue.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you for all your intrest.
    The error message I get is... "an unexpected error occured. PDFMaker was unable to process the request".
    When I then try to convert again, the system opens the ppt, but then does not do anything, and the error message does not show, for all presentations I try to convert.
    I have also tried using the ribbon, but the button does not do anything once I have clicked.
    I can print to PDF, but this provides an output which is not suitable, because it shows as if it each slide was printed on to paper and then put in PDF.
    I have also uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat to make sure nothing was corrupt.
