Certain Excel Worksheets skipped when creating PDF

I have tried both Adobe Acrobat Pro and the Adobe Acrobat Plug In for Excel and three of the worksheets from my workbook are not included when I create the PDF. I did make sure that the page layout settings are all the same for each worksheet and I made sure that all worksheets were included when setting up the pdf creation.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you,
Laura

Hi,
I tried to do the same with a Excel having a so much content. I tried to print that file into a PDF file, I saw the output file as expected. I think there might be some different settings in your PDF printer. Can you please send me the screenshot of PDF Printer Dialog Box launched after invoking Print To PDF from Excel?

[AS][INDCC] How to set Color Conversion field to No Color Conversion when creating PDF Export preset

How can i set Color Conversion field in Export to PDF dialog to No Color Conversion when creating PDF Export preset? i have done a bit of searching and have found where it has been recommended to set effective pdf destination profile to use no profile but it doesn't seem to be producting the expected results.

Acrobat distiller keeps on quitting when creating pdf

Hi there, my Acrobat distiller 10 in OS X Mountain Lion keeps on quitting when creating pdf. Please help.

Hello,
1. Please try updating the Acrobat to 10.1.10 and then check the issue.
2. Go to Settings -> Font Locations. You'll see a list of sources that Distiller gets its fonts from. Make sure that the paths actually exist, delete them if they don't.
3. Try with different joboptions.

Error message: Helvetica Medium outline font missing when creating PDF's

Error message: Helvetica Medium outline font missing when creating PDF's. Where can I downlaod it and why is it suddenly happening?

OS? Version of ID?
This means that either you have an extra Helvetica Medium font installed and it's interfering with ID finding the T1 version, or the T1 version is damaged. I found this really old thread that explains it fairly well: http://www.asadesigner.com/22-indesign/2d812de56777cc90.htm
The good news is that it's probably only affecting the page information marks.

Page size error when creating PDF from Excel 2013

Hello,
I am using Acrobat Pro XI, and am creating a PDF from Excel 2013. I have updated Acrobat to the latest version (11.0.4). I am using the Acrobat CreatePDF add-in inside Excel to convert a spreadsheet to PDF. However, when I create the PDF, the page size doubles from 8.5" x 11" to 17" x 22". I have checked the print settings inside Excel to insure that the content fits onto an 8.5" x 11" page. I also checked the Preferences->Advanced Preferences of the Create PDF add-in and confirmed that the default page size is set to 8.5" x 11". Does anyone know why it is creating the PDF with a 17" x 22" page size? Also, can the page be resized back down to 8.5" x 11" within Acrobat Pro XI?

Hello - this did not happen when I printed the file to the Adobe PDF printer. It correctly sized the sheet as 8.5" x 11". Thanks for the suggestion. Also, it will properly print out to the physical printer.
The main problem is when I am combining several PDFs into one document, I have some sheets sized at 8.5" x 11" and some at 17" x 22", so the document looks strange when viewing it online. I am still not sure why the Create PDF add-in creates a different sized PDF than the Print to PDF function.

Unusual error when creating PDF from Excel

2 of my work computers started suffering from this 1 week ago in Excel 2003.
All create buttons and dropdown menus work, the creation process goes through progress bars and such.
At the end, an error box titled Acrobat PDFMaker displays this error;
"An error occurred while saving the file. Please check if there is sufficient space in the temporary folder."
It's Acrobat 8 and its been updated to the highest level for quite a while. No settings have been changed.
Running on Windows XP Pro. PDF creation has worked fine before this.
It still works fine on Word.
The error is not on Google or here, so I assume I'm the first to ever get it!
There's at least 40 GB free on the drives. I cleared the system temp folder for kicks, but no change.
I did a generic uninstall and reinstall on one computer, reapplied updates, but error still pops up.

Excel chart alignment problems when creating PDF

My excel chart is off set on my PDF page after creating PDF from Macro. The chart is within my print areas in excel and no matter where I position the chart in excel the chart shows up like it is indented on the PDF and runs off the page. I can print from excel and the results are fine. I am operating a windows 2007 64 bit machine with excel 2007 and ADOBE Acrobat 9 Pro & Adobe Reader X.
I am running the following code by Ron de Bruin to generate the PDF
Myvar.ExportAsFixedFormat _
   Type:=xlTypePDF, _
   FileName:=Fname, _
   Quality:=xlQualityStandard, _
   IncludeDocProperties:=True, _
   IgnorePrintAreas:=False, _
OpenAfterPublish:=OpenPDFAfterPublish
No matter what I do I can not get the chart completely in the page through VBA. The VBA code works fine it is the results of the PDF I can't seem to fix.
Many thanks for any help.

Excel 2013 crashes when creating VFP OLE DB Data connection

Hi all,
I don't know how often the DBF format is used in Office but it seems some demand still exists because Microsoft created 64 bit version of dBase ODBC and OLE DB driver (in Access data engine). Then I don't understand why Microsoft ignores its own FoxPro
DBF data format because FoxPro ODBC driver is not supported already and no 64 bit version of VFP OLE DB driver is planned...
I am testing DBF file import to Excel 2013 (32 bit) but it crashes instantly. I have VFP OLE DB driver (the last version), some small DBF file, and I am trying to read it as external data in Excel.
Steps to reproduce (menu prompts are translated, so some differences may occur):
Open empty worksheet
Click "Other data sources" on Data ribbon
Select Data Connection Wizard and from the list of available drivers select "Other" and click "Next"
A list of OLE DB providers installed appears, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro and click "Next >>"
Excel 2013 crashes...
This process works in Excel 2010 and 2007 so the problem must be in Excel 2013...
The question is how to read DBF data in FoxPro format when there is no older Office version available?

To connect to a Visual FoxPro database or table in Excel
Open an Excel worksheet.
From the Data menu, point to Import External Data, and click
Import Data.
In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source Data Connection.
In the Data Connection Wizard, select Other/Advanced.
In the Provider tab, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro.
The Connection tab in the Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
To connect to a Visual FoxPro database or table in Word
Open a Word document.
From the View menu, point to Toolbars, and click
Database.
On the Database toolbar, click the Insert Database icon.
In the Database dialog box, click Get Data.
In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source Data Connection.
In the Data Connection Wizard, select Other/Advanced.
In the Provider tab, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro.
The Connection tab in the Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
To add a Visual FoxPro database or table folder
On the Connection tab and in the Select or enter a database name box, type path and name of the database or table folder you want.
-or-
To browse for a Visual FoxPro database or table folder, click the ellipsis (...) button to the right of the
Select or enter a database name box to open the Configure Connection dialog box.
Specify a different collating sequence if desired.
To test the connection, click Test Connection. If connection is successful, click
OK.

Using add-ins in Word and Excel, I want to create pdfs to display page fit and with bookmark panel displayed. I cannot find how to do this.

I am trying to create pdfs using add-ins in Word and Excel through Acrobat Pro XI. I cannot set defaults for page size or bookmark display. Does anyone know how to do this?

Page size is dictated by what is configured for the authoring file. For custom pages sizes you'd make a matching custom page size for Acrobat (see Acrobat's Help).
For PDF Bookmarks you use Acrobat's PDFMaker with a supported version of Word or Excel.
You configure the PDFMaker's Preferences such that PDF Bookmarks can be made.
Coming from Word the default Word Headings are used. You can also configure to used the default Word Styles.
Coming from Excel you can only use the names of the worksheets within a work book.
Alternatively you can create Bookmarks for a PDF manually using Acrobat XI (and earlier versions).
Note that Word "Bookmarks" are in no way the same as PDF "Bookmarks".
Be well...

Error Message when creating PDF

I was trying to Create PDF - From File and access a Pages document when I received this error message.
There was an error opening this document. There was a Macintosh system error (-1409).
Any ideas? I'm new to Acrobat and did this same function two days ago. Now it doesn't work. I can open a Jpeg into Create PDF, but not a Pages document.
It's MAC OSX software.
Thanks.

You can't directly open a Pages (or Word) document and Excel and, its equivelent Macintosh program in Acrobat. That's true. In OSX.5.8 and lower and 9.2 and lower you can go to print menu and choose AdobePDF and print a PDF. Or simply use the Mac's PDF button in Print menu. Or Most programs will allow you to save as Post script by going through the print menu click on PDF button and choose create Postscript from PDF (I know it sounds stupid but that what Apple has it listed as. ) Then Drop the PS File on Distiller. or open with distiller.
ON OSX.6.x (Snow Leopard) all bets are off.
you need to read this link.
Note: to make sure that everything goes smooth locate Automator select, do get info (Command key-I) and change from 64 bit to 32 bit. Its seems based on info from Acrobat the automator action for Create adobe quality PDF Automator action

White boarders around artboard when creating pdf in CS4

Hi,
have been trying to find solution for this issue for 4 hours now and im loosing my mind:)) ... so decided to ask some help from you guys.
Problem: im trying to create pdf file with black background in Illustrator cs4 and white thin boarders keep appearing to the right and bottom of the page. I have streched the background image so that its bigger than the artboard but white lines are still there when pdf is opened?!? I guess there is extremeley easy solution for this (kind a "you forgot to tick the box from x menu") but i just cant figure out .... so all the help is most wellcome!!!
Thank you in advance!
Jimi

@ Jacob --- you're half correct, in that it's a small bug, or smoothing artifact in the Preview application from Apple.
White boarders go away when you uncheck "Smooth text and line art" in Preview Preferences, under the PDF tab. Since that makes everything very pixelated, I don't recommend keeping that setting on.
Instead, consider installing Adobe Reader or using Acrobat Pro, where incidentily, the very same phenomonen can occur. In Acrobat Pro, you can also toggle "Smoothing" in the Preferences, Page Display dialog.
TIP: Preview works best with RGB PDFs, whereas if you are doing print production work, I would suggest using either Acrobat Reader, or Pro which is my preference because of the soft-proofing and print production tools.

XMP Metadata Error when creating PDF/A-1b

Hello,
I just started using Adobe Acrobat X for Mac to create PDF/A-1b documents from scanned TIFs. I created a script in the Action Wizard to 1) Combine Files into a Single PDF; 2)Downsample image resolution to 150 ppi (bitmaps to 300 ppi); 3) Recognize Text;4) Pause to find all suspects and make corrections to incorrect OCR; 5) Convertto PDF/A-1b (sRGB); and 6) Verify compliance with PDF/A-1b.
When I use the Action Wizard to to execute the script above I receive an error message stating "Metadata does not conform to XMP." However, when I execute each of the actions manually I do not receive the XMP metadata error. It takes a long time to execute each action manually, so I am hoping there is some way to make this full script work in the Action Wizard.
I have an open case with Adobe regarding this issue, but so far no solutions.

I do not receive an error when the "Verify compliance with PDF/A-1b" action is removed from the script. Does this action have to be performed separately to avoid the XMP metadata error?

Letters change when creating PDF

I am using Acrobat Professional 6 and creating PDFs with the "Adobe PDF" icon it created when installed.
Some documents from the Bloomberg system are converted by a sort of substitution cypher to gibberish. Capital letters are affected, but not lowercase. Capital letters are changed to the next letter in the alphabet. Also, numerals are increased by one. Exclamation points replace spaces, forward slashes replace periods, etc.
For example, the original said this:
Crandon Capital Partners v. Shelk, 202 Ore. 537
The PDF says this:
Drandon!Dapital!Qartners!v/!Shelk/!313!Pre/!648
This is repeatable on different days and with different files.
This does not happen with files from other sources, but the Bloomberg tech people insist it doesn't happen for them. I learned they are using Acrobat 8; could that be the difference?
In any case, how do I fix it?
Peter W. Schroth

Look at the document properties (ctrl-D) under the font tab. You probably did not embed the fonts. I suspect you are using the Standard Settings which does not embed all fonts. Try changing the settings file to Press or Paper (I don't remember which ones are listed for AA8). You can also check the settings to be sure that the fonts are embedded (all of them) and probably subset.

Corrupt image formatting when creating pdf from embedded visio image in MS word

Hello, Using Adobe Acrobat 9 standard and trying to create a PDF file from an MS word (version 2003) document. PDF file created is fine except for an image (embedded visio diagram imported into word). When created in PDF, the image is missing many of the diagram labels, and other text boxes are in the wrong font and wrong location. I don't know if it's my Adobe Acrobat or MS Word settings that need to be updated.
thanks, NB

Dear fellows,
the problem is still present. My system:Windows 7 32-Bit Prof, MS Office 2010 Prof, Acrobat X Pro 10.1.1, Vision 2010 Prof, all updates installed.
Problem #1: Even the latest Acrobat X 10.1.1 version causes Visio 2010 to start with error messages, origin: the Acrobat Add-In. Therefore I de-activated the Acrobat Add-In, again, as in the past.
As I design grafics with Visio 2010, I mark them in the active Visio window, copy the marked parts and then insert them into my Word-Document. So far, so good and as I want it.
The (still present) problem: I can produce a PDF file using the "save as Adobe PDF", but the Visio drawing is incomplete and corrupt. E.g. arrows as line endings have disappeared.
PS: But using Adobes PDF printer sets the embedded Visio drawing correctly! But using the printer one looses some features of the "save as Adobe PDF" command.
Well, probably one day ...
Regards,
Rückenlehne.
