Can't save light table as pdf

Having an issue where I have about 45 images (all jpgs) on a light table, and when I click on print light table, and either 'save as pdf' or open as 'PDF in preview', aperture constantly gets stuck on processing, without ever creating the PDF.
If i highlight just one image, it will create a pdf containing one image, but if I highlight all (or none) then Aperture just sticks in the processing stage, to the point where I have to Force Quit out of aperture.
I know the PDF's it creates are typically huge, but I even let it run for an hour + last nite, and it still did not create one.
Anyone else having a similar issue?
current configuration:
iMac 2.8ghz 4GB RAM NVidia GeForce 8800GS
500GB Hard drive, files in question are stored in the aperture library.

I have a faster system (3.06 GHz) and slightly better graphics card (GeForce 9400) and it was choking on the almost 1gig pdf file that was created from a 48 image Light Table. It did create the file though even though it looked like it wouldn't. When I got it open in preview, I reduced the file size to 2 mb using the quartz filter in the Save dialogue box.

  • I can't save changes to my PDF document?

    I downloaded a PDF document from Google Chrome onto my desktop. (It's a job application). However, every time I make changes to it, click save, and then open it up again using Preview, none of my changes have saved. Help?

    No -- I installed adobe acrobat -- and now, whether I'm signed in or not -- the little disc/save icon is whited out and it can no longer be selected -- when I open a PDF I can only save it to the cloud
    I am a physician, and a lot of what I look at is protected health information --- I can't be saving it in the cloud!!!  I have to find a way to disable this feature -- and restore my ability to save to my hard drive ONLY --
    Thanks -- but if you can tell me those things, I'll be grateful

  • Firefox opens a pdf in the browser but I can't save it as a pdf file. How do I save pdf files as pdfs?

    When I open pdf files in the browser I do not have a way to save the file as a pdf file on my hard drive. I can only save it as a firefox image file one page at a time. I can't print it either except as individual pages from the image file. When I use the "Save As" icon my only options are to save as a Firefox file. What am I missing? Thanks.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Today

    Try this, when I right clicked on the document to rotate the image a noticed a tool bar appeared at the bottom of the page with the save icon. It then disappeared, but by hovering at near the bottom of the document the tool bar appears and I can save the PDF.

  • Can't save as multi-page PDF in CS4

    Hey everyone, I'm having major trouble with page tiling in CS4.
    I have a CS2 file that has two pages in it with page tiling enabled, I saved this as a PDF with multiple pages just fine out of CS2. I now have it open in CS4 and am unable to do the same thing, my PDF always comes out as one long page. I can't work with multiple artboards because the file will be used in CS2 again and needs to remain backwards compatible.
    In the Print Dialogue I have "Tile" set to "Full Pages", the print preview window on the left shows me two pages, just the way it should be.
    Once I go into the Save as PDF Dialogue in CS4, I do not have the "Create Multi-Page PDF from page tiling" - option that is there in CS2 in the general tab.
    I've been trying to find a solution for the past two hours but am at my wit's end. I'd greatly appreciate some help.

    Just draw two artboards where the tiles would be then save it as a pdf. I should open in CS 2 without the artboards since CS 2 does not support artboards.
    Nothing will be different in CS2.
    Or simply make a copy for CS 4 with artboards and one for CS 2 but adding artboards to the CS 2 file when opned in CS 4 should be  a problem.

  • IBooks - can't save bookmarks/notes in PDF files

    Can some one of you tell me if you can save notes, bookmarks in PDF books imported in iBooks from iTunes?
    Each time when I add a note in a PDF book it invites me to save is as a copy. I undestood that we must wait for other basic functionalities but not be able to save my work is a big bug.

    The most feasible solution available for this problem is to have a reset on your iPad. It can be performed with the help of Sleep/Wake and Home buttons. Press those buttons simultaneously and hold down for about 15 seconds. Remain in that position even when you see the red slider on the screen during this period. Once you can view the Apple Logo on the screen, release your fingers from both buttons. You can get into the home page after a few seconds. Then, check whether the bookmarks are restored and ‘add bookmark’ function works fine.

  • How can I save the decuments and PDF file?

    How can I save decuments and PDF files?

    You first need an app on your iPad that supports the type of document that you want to store on it - unlike a 'normal' computer the iPad doesn't have a file system, and everything on it has to be associated with an app.
    The options include Apple's Pages app for Word documents, Numbers for Excel spreadsheets and Keynote for Powerpoint. And from third-parties apps such as Documents To Go ('premium' version) and QuickOffice Pro HD.
    For PDFs there are free apps such as Apple's iBooks app and also Adobe Reader - and paid-for apps such as GoodReader (which also supports read-only of word and excel documents).
    As to how you then get the file to your chosen app will depend upon what the app supports - different apps have different ways of copying their content to/from a computer e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via your wifi network, email, dropbox etc. For iBooks you can add PDFs to your computer's iTunes via File > Add To Library and then sync them to the iBooks app via the Books tab. For Pages, Numbers and Keynote there is help here.

  • I use iMac desktop. I can't save web pages as PDF file by using Firefox, but by Safari is fine.

    I'm using Mac OS X 10.6.4. Today, I tried to save my email content as a PDF file. However, I only got a PDF file that have partial content of email. Then I adjust the printer setting and did it again, then I only got a blank PDF file. There was nothing inside. Then I tried to save email as a PDF file by using Safari browser. And I got a complete and sucessful PDF file. I usually save web pages or web mail, online receipt as PDF file by use Firefox. But since I have updated to the new version, there were many problems with my Firefox. I tried to restore all my application and made Firefox in the old 3.6.3 version which I used to have no problem. But now still not working.

    I solved it for myself: it was my HP smart-web printer crap that was a plug in and add on for firefox that somehow automatically got installed when I upgraded to 5. I disabled both in the add-ons manager, and voila, printing is working.
    It seems there are many things, like this and the Google toolbar, that were screwed by the oddly fast update to 5. Looks like Mozilla didn't give anybody any notice! Must've been some really bad security hole.

  • Presenter View: can't use Light Table?

    Let's say I have 40 slides. I'm on slide 33, and someone raises a question for which I need to return to slide 4. So far, all I know to do is click backwards through all 29 slides, including builds. VERY clumsy, unprofessional and time-wasting. (I use my white iMac remote, paired to my MacBook Pro, late 2008).
    I tried starting from Light Table, but then when I click Play, it gives me only the two-slide standard Presenter view.
    Suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Chuck B

    There is no light table view that works during a presentation. However, the Keyboard Shortcuts help page (accessed from the Help menu) explains how to invoke the Slide Switcher, which may have the functionality you need.

  • Can't save Illustrator file to PDF

    I am just trying to save a PDF from my illustrator file. However, when I go to Save as, and select PDF, no dialog box opens to allow me to set how I want the file outputted. IF I just hit enter, the file does save.. its just like the Dialog box is hidden or not appearing. The reason I need the dialog box is because I need to add bleeds to the PDF and my default save doesn't do that. Any ideas or anyone else have this problem? Thanks

    An addition to this issue. I had the exact thing going on, but did have my second monitor running and still no dialog box. The issue was that I switched desks and now had my extra monitor on the other side of my laptop. So, after much frustration, finally figured out to go to preferences > displays, changed the arrangement to put the monitor back to the other side and "whallaa..." there it was.

  • How can I save a table with column headers?

    Hi
    I want to save the content in table to a text file. I used Write file.vi for doing that but the column headers didn't be saved. My column headers are changed depends on my testing result so that the column number is not fixed. Any suggestions?
    Bill.

    You can retrieve column headers with the ColHdrs[] table property and save them to disk before the table contents.

  • How can I save an email as PDF?

    Hello everyone,
    I'm looking for some app that allows me to save an email as a PDF file.
    I know that before iOS 5 this was possibile, but I sound like to know how to do it now,both for iPhone and iPad.
    Thank you,
    Fabio

    Personally, I put pdf files on dropbox.  There's a free dropbox app for iOS devices, and a free setup for computers.  A dropbox account is free.
