Can't "Save As" PDFX4 2008

When I Save As and choose PDFX4, it appears to making a PDF for about 8 minutes, then the placeholder file on my desktop just disappears, and nothing happens. Nothing created, and no error message.
Any ideas on what could be wrong? Saving as High Quality or Smallest File Size creates PDFs just fine.
THX,
Ian
PS. FYI, I'm on Windows 7, FM 9, 4 GB Ram.

PDF-X4 is a format used by other Adobe software that creates PDF files without going through Distiller. The pdf is created through a special PDF-Library that Adobe has created. X4-allows for many things like transparencies that Distiller does not. Since Distiller does not create X4-pdf files, neither does FrameMaker, because it still uses Distiller to make pdf files.

  • Photoshop CS6 can't save to server after upgrading to Mac OS Yosemite Server from Mac Lion Server

    We recently upgraded our server from a Mac Pro 2008 with OS X Lion Server to a Mac Mini 2014 with LaCie 20TB 5Big Thunderbolt 2 RAID drive. Everything is working fine with the exception of Photoshop. It does it intermittently but once it happens it will continue to do so. We get message like "Can't save to disk because of disk error" and "Can't save file because of program error" . Sometime we are able to do a "save as" and save over it. Most of the time we have to "save as" with a different file name and then rename and recopy the file. We have check permission on all the file as well as the server HD has ignore ownership checked. Again only three things changed. 1) Sever hardware change from Mac Pro to Mac Mini. 2) Server software upgraded from 10.7 Lion to 10.10 Yosemite(both have the latest update). 3) Drive when from internal on Mac Pro to External Thunderbolt 2 LaCie drive. We have no problem with Illustrator or Indesign. Only Photoshop. Anyone with any suggestion is greatly appreciated.

    Unfortunately you seem to be using Photoshop in a way that Adobe discourages, so you may not be getting a lot of helpful advice.

  • After share moved to new Server User can't save .xls file anymore.

    Dear Forum,
    we have a strange problem here. Situation:
    A fileshare got moved from a very old Server 2000 to our new 2008 R2 Server. Ever since the departments share moved Servers she (and her colleagues) get "unsuspected file lock by user" messages. Even if they unlock it and change something they
    can't save it.
    There was a file lock from that user even though she wasn't logged in. We removed that.
    There were some crude inherited rights from the old share. We purged them and the rights should be ok. (effective file permission says so, too!)
    Her tmp files were deleted.
    I for example can access the file without problem.
    We are currently out of ideas and any help is apreciated.

  • Distiller: PDFX4 2008.joboptions bug?

    I newly installed Acrobat 9 Pro Extended (I had no previous version). At starting up Distiller, I get an error message:
    Adobe PostScript software version: 3018.101
    Adobe PDF Settings file read error in PDFX4 2008.joboptions:
    /CheckCompliance out of range
    A quick web search shows that this is not a new problem. Some say that Distiller is not able to create PDF/X4 files and that the error is thus a bug in Distiller itself. Is that true? (I can't find a joboptions file of that name in my system ...)
    Do I need to do anything about it or can I just leave it?

    Yes, it is a bug in Distiller. Since I have no need for that joboption file, I just 86d it.

  • How can i save word documents to pages? I have an illegal copy of word but want to upgrade my software so I can utilize i cloud.  I'm a writer and need to preserve my word documents.

    I have an illegal copy of word and I want to upgrade my software so I can utilize i cloud.  How can I save my word documents to pages
    so that they are not lost in this upgrade?  I do not have the disk to reinstall word after the upgrade.

    You might want to post your question in the Pages forum. https://discussions.apple.com/community/iwork/pages
    Also if it's the Office 2004 version of Word it won't work in Lion since it's a Power PC program. Office 2008 will work in Lion if it's already installed when you upgrade. But it won't install on Lion because the installer program uses Power PC code. Office 2011 is the only one that will install and work on Lion.

  • PDFX4 2008.joboptions error

    I've searched and read the several threads related to the Acrobat 9.0 Distiller check compliance error message, and I understand that it's related to InDesign and Illustrator CS4 using a new standard when exporting to pdf that is not available, and causes errors in Distiller 9.0 when it's open. And I see that the answer given is to either delete the job options file or ignore it.
    I still have 2 problems:
    1 -- After searching my entire hard drive, I can not find this job option file -- I can find all the others, but not this specific one. I can see it available inside InDesign when exporting, but no PDFX4 2008.joboptions file appears to be external to InDesign.  So I've not been able to try removing it, because I can't find it. Is it embedded inside Indesign somehow?
    2 - I can't ignore it, because we have an automated file creation system with command line code to open and run distiller from an Access form frontend, and when it launches, after the checkcompliance error, all pdfs created show up as blank with the "Warning Empty Job" error.
    Thanks for any further help.

    OK, I figured it with further investigation. I had been running Acrobat 7.0 using runfilex.ps files to combine postscript print files into one pdf. We had skipped Acrobat 8.0, and evidently, Adobe stopped allowing file operations to be performed in PostScript.
    Using the /F command line option from the code we were using to launch Distiller fixed the issue.

  • How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?

    How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?
    Finder points to the document map even when I chose a different map recently.
    I often print series of pdfs from the print dialog box, I'd like to choose the map to save to and then have all subsequent pdf prints automatically directed to the same map until I decide otherwise.

    that link seems to be broken right now:
    403 Error - Forbidden  - No cred, dude.

  • How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD?

    I use HandBrake to rip DVD's into iTunes. How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD? For instance, I have a Jimi Hendrix documentary that comes with special features, such as concert performances. I would like to have the main feature and the special features saved in my iTunes under the same title, perhaps as different 'tracks' (kind of like how different songs can be saved under the same album).
    Is there a way for me to do this, or am I chasing phantoms?

    *This response is for iPhoto 11 (v9). If you're using an earlier version, please post back and let us know. Troubleshooting steps are not the same for different versions. To find out which iPhoto you have: iPhoto Menu -> About iPhoto)*
    Duplicate the photo first. (Photos -> Duplicate). This means that you will have multiple copies of the master as well as the edited version.
    If you use versions like this often and wish to have only one master then you can do this with Aperture.

  • We have a PC with iTunes that needs the hard drive reformatted. Right now, it can't connect to other computers on the network. Can I save my music to a thumb drive, then re-load when the computer is reformatted?

    We have a Windows XP desktop with iTunes for windows. The hard drive needs to be reformatted. Right now, the computer will not connect to other computers on the network. Can I save my iTunes songs to a thumbdrive, then re-load after reformatting?  How do I do it?

    Copy the entire iTunes folder out to the drive. If it is too big to go as one copy stuff over to another computer in batches. It is important to have not only the media but the library file in order to properly restore your library.
    See also this User Tip. Assuming the machine won't connect to the internet you could download the SyncToy installer on another machine and then transfer it with the thumb drive. If it will connect to the net don't forget to deauthorize the machine before reformatting the hard drive.

  • How can i save my individual playlist on itunes on my external hard drive because i want to buy a laptop and install itunes and move all my music and playlist thats on my desktop to my laptop and almost all my music is from a bunch of cd's i own

    Hello ryane84
    The easiest and most efficient way to copy your music is to follow the steps under the External drive section. Make sure that you have organized the iTunes library first before you copy it over. Then put the copied iTunes folder in the same Music folder on your computer.

  • Using tab groups but Firefox 28.0 crashes and even can not save all tabs in archive recently

    Hi. I installed tab groups addon on my firefox 28.0 (firefox portable version) and each group has its tabs. of course. Problem is that Firefox crashes when i work on a group with the tabs and even can not save all tabs in archive as MAFF recently too. When i try to save all tabs in archive as... i choose the name and hit save and wait but after some time this crashes too. Last time i saved all my tabs and groups as MAFF or other file was end of april and since then i can not save them anymore because of the crashing.
    I read on the help site to delete Firefox then reinstall ect. to fix problems but I DO NOT want to erase my groups with their tabs as i chose this solution working with group tabs as it would be to hard on my cpu when i use for each group a different browser for example.
    Please help me fix this problem with the crashes but without loosing my groups and its tabs as they are all important and do not wish to erase them as i use them all.
    Thanks and hope for a soon reply :)

    Can I save data (in txt or excel format) from a snapshot from signal express 2013 LE?  My data buffer is too larege to export to excel.  When I try to take a snapshot, I do not see any data.  Are snapshots supported in the LE mode?  This is the free version that comes with the USB 6009 ADC.

    Yes, the snapshot function is available for SignalExpress 2013 LE. Does the snapshot function as intended when you try other projects?

    Let us start from the beginning.
    It has been established that you have Premiere Elements 10. On what computer operating system is it running?
    There has not been a File Menu/Export/Movie export opportunitity in Premiere Elements since version 7. We are not up to version 12.
    For Premiere Elements 10, your export opportunities are all in Share/ including one for Computer. Under Computer there are several choices. The ones that you see are Adobe Flash Video, MPEG, and AVCHD. The others you have to scroll down to. And those choices are AVI, Windows Media, QuickTime, Image, and Audio. You do not have to use the scroll bar for this. You can click on Adobe Flash Video panel to get it to turn black. Then use the down arrow to go down the list and the up arrow to go up the list. Once you get to a category, you can select a preset and go with it or customize it under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab of the preset.
    If you post the properties of your source media that you want to try to match in the export, I would be glad to suggest the exact settings for you.
    We will be watching for your follow up with details.
    Thank you.

    Add On...The Premiere Elements 10 File Menu is for more than Saving, just not exporting. One of the key features that can be access there is the Project Archiver. More on that another time.
