Bridge CS5 not previewing all PDF pages

Hi there
After installing CS5 bridge only shows the first 2 pages of PDFs in the preview pane. Older PDFs seem to be ok, just not newly created ones. What am I doing wrong?
I note that there's a preference for this in InDesign for INDD/IDML previews - is there one for PDFs?
Thanks!
Luke

Thanks for your reply Fran, but I think you misunderstood the problem. My biggest annoyance with Bridge is that I need to open a PDF in Acrobat, Preview, or even Quick Look to view more than the first two pages, when I should be able to in Bridge.
I understand for cross-platform reasons you can't rely on OSX's native PDF viewing capability, but come on - Adobe developed the PDF format. Is this too much to ask?
I realise you can change your settings in InDesign so that it embeds previews for all pages, but this bloats your PDF file a LOT. Why cannot Bridge just render PDFs without these InDesign-embedded previews?
At the moment Bridge can't even tell me how many pages there are in a PDF before I open it - it always comes up with '2' if there are 2 or more. Hopeless.
I'd be happy to turn on previewing for all pages in InDesign just for INDD and IDML files as I don't care about the size of these files, but then you get the nasty huge PDF file sizes, even on Smallest File Size export setting. So I have to leave that turned off.
Thanks anyway
Luke

  • Bridge CS5 not previewing .NEF files

    Bridge is only showing the .NEF image and won't load a preview. I've updated to latest ACR and Bridge on my Mac to no avail. My camera is a Nikon D7000.

    Can you open the files in Adobe Camera Raw?  If so, that means that you have the ACR plug-in installed correctly.
    What you need to do is to Purge the Cache for the offending folder(s) containing the raw NEF files, by going through the Tools menu in Bridge:
    If that doesn't work, tell us what version you see in Photoshop when you go to Photoshop > About -Plug-in > Adobe Camera Raw…
    We also need to know the exact version of Photoshop CS5 and of the OS you are running.
    Please read this FAQ for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:

  • Acrobat 9 bug? - Print Pages function does not print all bookmarked pages

    We use the Bookmark Print Pages function to allow for easy printing of sections of large PDFs. All of the pages that should be printed are bookmarked. The bookmarked pages print correctly in Adobe 8, but not in Adobe 9.
    I have put together a javascript workaround, but would prefer a solution that does not require distributing a file to all users.
    I would appreciate any suggestions on other possible workarounds.
    Here is the bug report I submitted to Adobe:
    Concise problem statement: The "Print Pages" function for bookmarks does not print all bookmarked pages in Adobe Reader 9.0 and 9.1. The same bookmarks print properly in Adobe Reader, Standard, and Pro 8.
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. Open the Adobe Acrobat SDK JavaScript for Acrobat API Reference PDF (Version 8.1, April 2007) in Adobe Reader 9.0 or 9.1.
    2. View the bookmarks. Right-click on New Features and Changes and choose "Print Pages."
    3. Open the same PDF in Adobe Reader, Standard, or Pro 8. (I used Adobe Professional 8.1.3.)
    4. View the bookmarks. Right-click on New Features and Changes and choose "Print Pages."
    Results and Expected results: Printing from v8 results in 12 pages. Printing from v9 results in 9 pages. Pages 741, 754, and 769 did not print from v9.

    I'm having the same issues.  Using the latest version 9.3.3.  Is this a bug? I tired calling adobe but their CR sounds like 3rd country only.  Anyone can shed a light on this issue?

    Is there a way to create a PDF from outlook e-mail that does not embed the attachment? better, is there a way to convert the e-mail with attachement (not embeded) as pdf pages?
    - Problem: I have 1400 e-mails with attachments that need to be converted into pdf and the attachments cannot be embeded.
    System: PC Windows 7 using Acrobat X Prof. - Thank you!

    Hi ,
    There is an option of embedding index for faster search while converting email to a PDF .
    However I am not sure that will serve your purpose or not .
    I would recommend you to get in touch with Microsoft support as well .
    Meanwhile I'll work on it and get back to you in case I get a desired solution .

    Pages died today. Just downloaded the latest update 2 days ago. Last night shutting down my very new MacBook Pro Retina, Pages stopped shut down. Today Pages will not open, all my Pages docs cannot open. Help please! Anybody have a fix?

    You probably have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 in your Applications folder, will open Pages '09 files but will alter/damage them. It can not open Pages '08 files.
    Pages '08/'09 in your Applications/iWork folder which can not open Pages 5 files.
    When you were shutting down you probably had an unsaved document open.
    You probably are opening the wrong versions of Pages to open the wrong document format.
    Pages 5 has had over 90+ features removed.
    Most users are going back to Pages 09 whilst Apple sorts this out.

  • Bridge CS5 Output to Web & PDF not appearing/ working

    Hi there, I'm using Bridge CS5 and the image processor and the output function has stopped working all of a sudden. All the appears is an empty panel in it's place.
    I have done some reading through the discussions here and found my start up scripts folder is completely empty.
    What can I do to fix this?
    Can anyone help please???
    Nat

    What can I do to fix this?
    Quit Bridge and first use Apple Disk utility to check and repair the permissions for your start up disk. After this has been done restart Bridge holding down option (alt) key and choose reset preferences.
    When still in trouble also look at PS. Be sure to have all your customized settings, tools brushes and actions etc. saved as a back up so you can easily reload them if needed. The restart PS holding down shiftoptioncmd and also in here choose reset preferences. Again start Bridge holding down option key and again reset prefs. Try again. Could you report back if this worked?

  • Bridge CS5 Not Working

    I currently have PS CS5 installed on my Mac OS X 10.6.8 with Snow Leopard.  PS5 works fine but when I try to use bridge, bridge opens but that's it.  If I try to do anything I get the spinning beach ball and eventually have to force quit.
    I have done all I can outside of bridge ... repaired permissions, uninstalled and reinstalled the software.  However, i can't even open up preferences for bridge as it gives me the spinning ball.
    I am new to the mac (3 months), so I need some handholding on what to do.
    Thanks for your help.

    Strange this did not solve it, as said 95 % chance but I really did expect it to work for you. Now I'm running a bit out of options I'm afraid.
    Is it possible you have CS4 running in the background?  You can only run one version of Bridge at a time.
    Curt, as you can only run 1 Bridge version of the time you can have all other CS Suite applications active at the same time regardless their version (at least that is on a Mac but I have no reason to believe it should not be the same on Windows). I can have PSCS4 and PSCS5 both open and active but the only limitation is Bridge. Using the open command Bridge opens the file in the corresponding CS version PS (Bridge CS5 opens in PSCS5 by default). If you choose the open with command you can without problems choose to open a file in PSCS 4 and work on it. Save and closing it will update the preview in Bridge CS5
    DJ,
    You might give it one more try with the clean tool from Adobe, see also this link from Adobe Support:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
    Download the clean tool for Mac and carefully read the Read me files that come with it.
    Be sure to update all custom tools, brushes actions (but since your a bit fresh on the Mac you probably won't have much customized?)
    Use the uninstaller that comes with the Adobe Application (you will find the uninstaller for CS5 in the Adobe Photoshop CS5 folder in your default application folder (should be on root level, not in your user account).
    First start PS and in the help menu choose to deactivate the software. Quit PS and start the uninstaller for CS5.
    Be sure to also check the option to deactivate permanently, this erases your serial number from your system but surely you'l have that number stored on a saved place, you will need it again after reinstall
    Use the clean tool and also check for the files from the prior mail, not all cache files will be deleted by the clean tool and you might want to trash them manually.
    Install again with serial number and sign in on your Adobe ID and try again.

  • Can not open all .pdf files in Yahoo Mail.

    Three computers using Windows XP and Internet Explorer can open all .pdf files in Yahoo
    Mail. The fourth and newest Computer with XP Pro, Internet Explorer, and the latest Adobe
    Reader can only open some, but not all, .pdf files in Yahoo Mail. Nothing happens when
    the window is clicked to open file. How can this be fixed?

    Adobe Reader isn't my favorite, but neither are smug and uninformed assertions about Preview. There are PDFs that render only squares and marks under Preview (http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/24209/this-pdf-displays-with-question-m arks-instead-of-letters), which is a common problem in MS Windows Office generated PDFs, so you may actually need Adobe Reader for Mac.
    If you need to use Adobe Reader (as I do), then it may depend on the filesystem type where you save your PDF.  For example, our Macs are network homed.  Saving to desktop produced the error reported above no matter whether I used Safari:Save As, or the PDF save icon. 
    However, when I saved to a local drive (such as /tmp), then it worked.  I don't know why file system makes a difference, unless Adobe is doing something with extended attributes that doesn't get written correctly to some filesystems.
    Hope this helps.

  • Bridge CS5 not working properly

    Hi, I have been using Bridge for years, I have Bridge CS5 and all of a sudden I can't use the export to web/ pdf function. I also can't use the Tool>Photoshop>Image Processor. (It doesn't appear to exist anymore??!). What's going on?
    As far as I remember I haven't updated the software from the net recently.
    These two functions are essential to my work flow so if anyone could help that would be great.
    Thanks,
    Nat

    If something happens all of a sudden first thing to try is restart Bridge holding down option key and from the pop up menu choose reset preferences.
    Try again and if it works now set preferences again to your custom wishes
    If your workspace for The Output Module is no longer available the reset prefs might do the trick for that.
    The image processor is related to Photoshop, can you still the other Photoshop options like batch, photomerge etc. ?

  • Outlook not printing all PDF documents

    Hello,
    When I print an e-mail with multiple PDF documents in the attachments, it's not guaranteed all documents are printed.
    For example: I get an e-mail with 6 PDF files. I print the e-mail and include the attachments. The e-mail is printed, but not all 6 PDF files. It could be 3, 4 or 5. This means I have to check all pages everytime I print.
    Weird thing is that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. My colleague has the same issue. The problem occurs on multiple printers. Other files like .jpg or Word print with no problems at all. We work with Outlook 2013.
    When I print the e-mail I get a pop-up that the document is sent to the printer (this is the actual e-mail). After that Adobe Reader opens en I see multiple messages that the document is sent to the printer. I'm guessing that not all documents are opened properly and that's why they're not printed. Is this a known issue? Because I found a previous discussion for Outlook 2010, but that one remained unanswered.
    Please help me out.
    Kind regards,
    Rense H.

    Here's a link to the page in question (although there are other pages as well):
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1787993/Guitar/Page_7_from1.L%26M_Guitar_Manual.pdf
    What I found is that if I print to my main printer (HP 4300), the gridlines of the pictures in the middle of the page don't show up.
    If I print to the Xerox 6360DT that I have, the picture shows up fine.
    There must be a setting in the HP properties that's making it not work but I haven't been able to figur out what the setting is.

  • Adobe Bridge CS5 Not Responding

    Periodically I will click from one folder to another folder in Bridge CS5 and it causes Bridge to freeze and give me a "Not Responding" message. I have never had a problem when running a batch or image processor through Bridge, just when clicking from one folder to another folder. Is there a way to prevent this from happening? If someone could explain it to me in a very simplistic form I'd appreciate it!

    If you are building cache when you go to a folder, a spinning arrow in lower left corner, and then click on another folder before the process is finished Bridge can balk.  You can get a contaminated cache to foul things up.   To rebuild the cache for a folder click tools/cache/purge cache for xxx folder.
    You might compact the cache (edit/preferences/cache) to reduce its size and make it run more effeciently.

  • Bridge CS5 not detecting camera

    I just upgraded my MAC to OS 10.8.3, now Adobe Bridge CS5 cannot detect my camera when I plug in to download images. What do I need to do to correct this?

    Moved to Bridge General Discussion
    Can you provide more details, what version of Bridge (check About Bridge) and what camera are you using.
    In general, plugging the camera to the computer is not the best workflow, it would be safer and faster to get a USB or firewire card reader and put your card in the reader.
    If you go to the menu file / get photo's from camera you will be provided with Adobe Photodownloader. Check the options and use the advanced menu. But be warned, don't let APDL delete your files form the card. This is very dangerous because you first should check if your files are correct and make a back up before considering to delete the files from the card. If you are sure everything is OK put the card back in the camera and use the camera software to delete the files, I personally use the format card option to have a clean start.
