Can't save an edited PDF to the same folder it originated from

Can't save an edited PDF to the same folder it originated from. Error "cannot save the document is read-only or is open by someone else" and then it prompts to save the document to another folder or change the name of the document. This is not what I want to do! Using WIndows 7

Hi JC_AUS,
Thank You for posting on the forums. This can happen if the preview of the document is opened in preview pane in Windows Explorer.
Kindly switch off the preview pane and then try the same.
Thanks,

[CS3] [JS] Export PDF to the same folder as the InDesign file

Hi,
I have written a JavaScript to export an InDesign file to a PDF file.
The exporting works fine when exporting to a specific folder, but I want the script to export the PDF to the SAME folder as the InDesign file.
For example, if the Indesign file is in a folder called "Owner's Manuals", I want the script to save the PDF into the same "Owner's Manuals" folder.
At the moment I have:
var myFolder = Folder.selectDialog ('Choose a Folder');
but this dialog defaults to the Desktop every time, forcing me to click 6-7 times to locate the relevant folder where I want the PDF to be saved, which is a waste of time.
I want the script to do something like the following:
"Find out the location of this InDesign file, and export the PDF to the same folder"
I have searched this forum, as well as the Scripting Reference, but without any luck.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi
Please another another one time check it out..
//Do not open the PDF Export dialog box. Set "false" to "true" if you want the dialog box.
myDoc.exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, myFile, false, "Press Quality");
Instead I used
var ExPDFs= File(Final+myBaseName + ".pdf");
pdfPreset = app.pdfExportPresets.item("Sample");
myDoc.exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, ExPDFs, false, pdfPreset);
Here I think u made mistake in "pdfPreset " passing argument...
I used Sample -> PDF Preset name, but u passing PDF Preset is directly [Press Quality]... thats all.
Then how come u say this script is not working....like that?.
I used this script in my Projects U know?.
Please try to reveal and check throughly after that U say the word "Thanks for your suggestion, but it did not work."
OK.

Is it smart to have .prproj in the same folder as original footage?

Is it smart to have .prproj in the same folder as original footage so when archived, esp. on dvd, the retrieval process is simple and there will be no hunting for the .prproj to link to files?
Thanks,

Create New Trimmed Project
to create a new version of the current project that refers only to the footage you used in the selected sequence
so it sounds like ALL unused footage will be ignored, including parts of the clips that are unused?
Collect Files and Copy to New Location
to copy and consolidate the footage you used in the selected sequences.
so it sounds like ALL unused footage will be ignored? What does "consolidate" mean?
What should I do? I just want to move the "project" file and reestablish media connection.
Either way, this is what I got:
Thank you, Steve Z

I want to but can't play WAVs and MP3s in the same folder, please he

Hello,
I have a Zen Nano Plus. One of the reasons I got it was because it has a built in microphone. When you record with the mic it saves it as a WAV file, and puts it in the "recorded" file. I want to make a folder with both songs (mp3s) and bits of spoken word that I record in - so that when I play it I can select shuffle and it will randomly play either a song or a recorded part. (It's for a friend in a coma and we want to leave it playing her favourite songs as well as messages from her friends.) When I make a new folder it won't recognise WAVs only the MP3s, and when I put MP3s in the "recorded" file it won't recognise them, only the WAVs. The shuffle option will only shuffle between tracks in the same folder. I've called the help line and spent half an hour talking to them but nothing was solved. I realise that I can convert the WAV files into MP3 files (anyone recommend a good, free converter?) but would rather not have to do this. Also, if it is possible to play both in the same folder, can I also record through the mic directly into this folder? This would save me having to take it home whenever a new message is left to organise the tracks.
Any help given very much appreciated,
Anil.

Firmware is the operating system of the player, written by Creative. Peebee is saying that it would require a fundamental change to this operating system, which would need to be reprogrammed by Creative. You can by all means request it as a wishlist item, by sending to support, but there's no guarantee it will be implemented.

How do I create an action that saves files as JPG in the same folder?

Hey folks!
So I'm sitting at work, trying to optimize my workflow a bit..
What I'd like, is a droplet, that will allow me to open PSD's and save them as JPG in a new folder inside the original folder.
Like the Image Processor that makes a new folder named 'JPG' but without opening the dialog box and having to press buttons.. Drag-drop-done
Sitting on Imac with OS X 10.10.2 with Photoshop CC 2014.
Hope you can help
Regards

Use scriptListener to create the code for adjusting the hue. find the line in the code that denotes the change in hue replace that value with a variable that stores a random number:
var rangeForRandomNumber = 200
var offsetForRandomNumber = -100
var randomNumber = Math.random() * rangeForRandomNumber + offsetForRandomNumber

How do you save an editable PDF on the iPad app?

The entries appear to be saved on my iPad, but the document is blank when I email it.

I'm assuming this is a form. Is that correct? Do you know if the form was created with Acrobat (acroform) or LiveCycle Designer (XFA)? XFA forms are not supported by the mobile version of Adobe Reader. They may appear to work when filling, however.

How do i create a form in live cycle E4 that i can save as a PDF that the user cannot save over?

How do i create a form in live cycle E4 that i can save as a PDF that the user cannot save over?

You can't. If the file is made read-only via the file system, the user will prompted to save as a new file if they attempt to save.

There is no 'Save as' option in the latest version of Pages '09... I can't save an edited document under a different name or in a different location. Solution?

Have a personal letterhead. Wrote a letter beneath it. Can't save edited letterhead as new letter--'Save As' just isn't an option under File menu. What happened to 'Save As'?

You can achieve the same result with menu File>Duplicate though it's a slightly different process - this page explains in detail:
http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/16334/os-x-lion-where-did-save-as-go/
If you are regularly using a page with just a letterhead to add the text of a letter to you would do better to Save as Template and to the Templates folder. It will then be available from the Templates window you get when Pages opens, from where it will open as an 'Untitled' file which you can save in the normal way without risking messing up the template. Or you can just save it anywhere as a Template and then double-clicking it will have the same effect.

How can I save an edited converted file?

How can I save an edited converted (from PDF) file?

Hi alisonr1825446,
When you convert a PDF file to Word/Excel, it's automatically saved to your Acrobat.com online account. From there, you can download it to your desktop to edit it, and then save it. To download your file, log in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/files. Select the file, and then click the Download link at the top of the file list. Your file will be downloaded to the Downloads folder on your computer.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

Photoshop CS6 - can't save as a PDF - error message

Hi - I am having problems saving a PDF in photoshop CS6.
There isn't an option to save as a PDF in the Save As function so I've been trying to do this through the Print Function.
When I get to the point where I press Save I get the following error messgae:
Any ideas why this is or how I can rectify this problem?!
Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Without exact system info, details about the document, PDF settings used and so on nobody can tell you much. There could be any number of reasons why you neither can save as PDF nor print to PDF, the most obvious being an unsuitable color mode or a wrong document size.

How can i save a large pdf document in two parts

how can i save a large pdf document in two parts

i cannot figure this out, either. and i am also not able to set a custom page size to tile (in this case, tabloid/landscape). the dialog box defaults to my ppd for my epson printer (max size = letter) even when i select the drop down for "printing" to a post script file. I've been using illustrator since it's first release and i'm really surprised that this is rudimentary step in finalizing docs for release has been complicated.

Thx Eric. You've helped! When I tried to copy the words written in my e-mail to show you what I meant, I right clicked to copy, and saw an option to open the attachment, which it did! So I'm sorted thank you. Editable means a form which you can fill in and send back. Thanks again. Stephen
