Church website PDF files no longer showing text.

http://www.spfcp.org/bulletins.cfm
November PDF files open OK. December shows boxes, not text.
I communicated with their tech person, who assures me that nothing changed on their end. I am able to view the files, normally, in IE, but I don't want to use IE.
Please help!

Glad that I could help.
Thank you for contacting the Mozilla support team.
Have a happy holidays.
As a work-around, tell Firefox to open the PDF using Adobe Reader. This will save a copy of the PDF to the temporary files on your computer. These files are wiped off of your hard drive periodically and should not take up space.
This method will not use up any more internet bandwidth than if you were to view it using the Firefox reader.
I will post more steps on how to tell Firefox to open the file using Adobe Reader below.
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac).
#In the Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac) window, select the ''Applications'' panel.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right hand side you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.

    Hi olivias,
    It sounds like there may be some confusion on your system about what application should be associated with PDF files. You can reset filename associations by following the steps in these articles (depending on your operating system):

    You don't need to maintain all versions of the upgrade chain, but many of us do in case we need to work on a legacy file. If you want to rmove a version, though, ti should be done BEFORE installing the later one. Just reinstall CS5 and things should get back to normal.

  • Exported PDF's from FormsCentral show text until submitted to 3rd party application

    Hello,
    I'm running into an issue when trying to export a group of PDF forms that were created in FormsCentral they do show text when opened with Adobe Reader.  However if another program attempts to read the PDF it does not show the text input by end users into the form.  If I print the PDF file to PDF and then attempt to index it with different software the submitted text is usable.  I'd like to find a way to not have another step in the process to print to PDF for an existing PDF.  I'm not sure if the text is showing up as a background layer that isn't visible to other applications or if it is potentially the font which is Trebuchet MS.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hello Gen,
    We are importing the forms into Banner Document Managment System.  Once they are saved as a PDF every part of the PDF is visible to the document except what the user has input.  Then when it is saved and searched for in Banner Document Management System the text no longer shows up when the PDF is opened.  They will show up if I print to PDF using CutePDF Writer and then upload into Banner Document Management System.  Banner Document Managment System is used to host all of the school's documents when they are submitted.
    Thanks for your assistance!

  • After updating to the latest Reader XI - pdf preview no longer show up in the explorer preview pane

    After finally allowing Adobe to update my reader - I no longer can see pdf files in the preview pane.  I can see previews if I have medium or large icons turned on - but a large version in the preview pane.  And never if small icons or details are used.  I could see these files fine before the update.  If I right click in the preview pane - I have the option to open the pdf, etc.  It's like it is there but I cannot see it.  If I close the acrord in the task manager, the next pdf file I click on will have a preview.  However, after that, no preview showing for any others.  The only way a preview is in the preview pane is if the application is killed in task manager between every attempt.
    Why is this happening?

    Hi precious_star,
    Could you please let me know what version of OS are you using.
    Open Acrobat and go to "Edit > Preferences > Page Display" and check whether 'Show large images' option is checked.
    Is this issue specific for one PDF?
    If possible, please share the file with me via email so that I can also check at my end.
    I have sent you a message with my contact id details.
    Hope to get your response.
    Regards,
    Anubha

  • ORA-22835: buffer too small when trying to save pdf file in LONG RAW column

    Hi,
    I get "ORA-22835: Buffer too small for CLOB to CHAR or BLOB to RAW conversion (real : 125695, maximum : 2000)" when i trying to save a 120k pdf file in an Oracle Long Raw column using dotnet 4.0 and Entity FrameWork.
    Dim db As New OracleEntities
    Try
    Dim myEntity = (From e In db.TEXTE _
    Where e.TEXT_ID = txtTextId.Text _
    Select e).Single
    With myEntity
    If txtTextypeId.Text <> "" Then
    .TEXTYPE_ID = txtTextypeId.Text
    Else
    .TEXTYPE_ID = Nothing
    End If
    .TEXT_NUM = txtTextNum.Text
    .TEXT_NAME = txtTextName.Text
    .TEXT_DATE = dtTextDate.SelectedDate
    If DocAdded Then
    .TEXT_DOC = Document
    ElseIf DocDeleted Then
    .TEXT_DOC = Nothing
    End If
    End With
    db.SaveChanges()
    Document is an array of Byte and TEXT_DOC also (mapped to a long row column).
    is it possible to increase the size of the buffer ? how may i do it ?
    Thx in advance.
    Regards.

    Using a custom UPDATE or INSERT stored procedure for LONG RAW column with
    exceed-limit data may still get the following error.
    "ORA-01460: unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested".
    One option is to use BLOB instead of LONG RAW in your table and regenerate your
    data model from the table. Then using the default UPDATE or INSERT statement
    (created by EF) should work.
    The following will modify your LONG RAW column to BLOB column.
    Disclaimers:
    1. It's irreversible--you cannot modify BLOB back to LONG RAW.
    2. I have not tried that when there are huge data in LONG RAW column.
    So be careful.
    alter table <your_table_name> modify <your_long_raw_type_column> blob;

  • HOw do I create a new PDF file that incorporates the text changes I made in the previous PDF file?

    All of my edits appear properly in the saved file but as pop-ups etc. that cannot be seen when I print a copy.
    This seems like an obvious thing to want to do, but I cannot find out how to do it from any of the documentation (including video tutorials).

    Something to try:
    Create a Comment Summary report (a PDF file).
    There are several approaches that can be used.
    --| Work out of the Comment List (Comments > Comment View > Show Comments List or click the overlapped comment bubbles at the bottom of the Navigation panel)
    --| Comments > Show Comments List
    --| Comments > Summarize Comments
    --| Comments > Print with Comments Summary
    In the Summarize Options dialog, select the desired layout, paper size, how comments are to be sorted and font size.
    Select Include All comments. If you want to sort by review status, author, comment type, etc then go into the Comments List.
    The tool bar provides various means of configuration.
    When the Print dialog is present, under the "Properties" button (upper right), use the drop-down menu for 'Comments and Forms' to select "Document and Markups".
    The imprint on the paper will have the PDF page content and annotations (comments) provided in the PDF by use of the Text Edit tools.
    So, you can provide the text entered into a Text Edit's pop-up two ways.
    First - You have the PDF of the Comments Summary Report.
    Second - You have the hardcopy of this PDF.
    Of note is that, with Adobe's Tech Comm Suite, you can author in FrameMaker or MS Word, output a PDF for comments and review, then bring these comments back into the source authoring file.
    Be well...

  • Pdf files no longer contain page info

    Saving copies of web pages (e.g., financial documents) in 2005 printed headers with URL, and the footers had the date and time. Sometime in 2005 this info was no longer being 'printed' as a part of the pdf. I would like to have this info as a part of the document, but none of the preferences (for Safari, Firefox or OS X 10.3.9) has anything to do with including the info in the pdf. Neither Safari 1.3.2 nor OS X 10.3.9 seems to have the ability to provide this data in the *Get Info*.
    My question is How do I get this info as part of the pdf again-- without changing my OS? (With the iMac's limited RAM this is not a viable option for me.)

    Hi,
    Have you tried changing the Adobe Reader preferences
    to not use Reader as the plugin for web browsers? The
    option to enable/disable is in the Internet section
    of the Reader preferences.
    Thanks for your advice..I went into the Reader's preferences and unchecked the top box designating Reader to open pdf files. I went back and tried to download another pdf text and got this message: "attempted to load an Internet plug-in named “Adobe Acrobat and Reader Plug-in”, but the plug-in failed to load successfully."
    Got any other thoughts?

  • Downloaded PDF files don't show description or "i" link to summary

    I am including a PDF file in a podcast. The xml has both an <itunes:subtitle> section and an <itunes:summary> section for the PDF <item>.
    Before the PDF file is downloaded in iTunes the subtitle shows in the description column and the summary is available via the "i" link on the right side of the description column.
    After the PDF file is downloaded in iTunes both the subtitle/description text and the "i" link disappear.
    There seems to be no way to access that information once the PDF is downloaded. The same issue does not affect audio or video files.
    Does anyone know if this is by design (why?) or is it a bug in iTunes?

    I'm not sure i know what you mean because there's nothing to configure there. All you can do, is tick boxes and the dimension boxes are all ticked - you can see so in the screenshot otherwise they wouldn't show up. I also unticked "hide empty fields" because otherwise, it won't show them either. Yesterday I went through the entire list to see if there was more meta data that contained dimensions but there's none.

  • Concatenated PDF file does not show all content.

    When I concatenate 2 single page pdf file into one pdf file, the concatenated page does not show all the content. It misses the last line on the 2nd page.
    However the thumbnails view shows the missing line correctly.
    Also, if I view the concatenated pdf into another pdf view, it shows the content correctly.

    Upon further research in the merged pdf file, it appears the merged pdf file has 2 references to the same field "UFE_ISSUE_DATE".
    If I edit the pdf file in the text editor and change one of the field name to "UFE_ISSUE_DATE_TEST", then the pdf gets rendered correctly with date value shown correctly!
    So, we decided to use 2 different field names in each of the individual pdf for this field only.
    But, what causes confusion is that we do have several other fields with same field name in each of the individual pdf file, but upon merge they appear correctly. Searching for such field name in the merged pdf file via text editor, I can see only 1 reference. Not sure, why this particular field "UFE_ISSUE_DATE" has 2 references in the merged pdf file.
    Any one has any thoughts?

  • PDF file is missing some text while displaying on the iPad

    I have sent a PDF Invoice to my customer, he called me back and said that I must be joking because half the important text is missing.
    I have opened up the PDF on my computer and everything was there, so I was scratching my head... Than he called me back and said that
    he also opened up the file on his computer and the missing text was there. That way we have discovered that the PDF file is for some strange
    reason not displaying some parts of the text. I have checked on my own iPad trying to display it in iBooks, Adobe Reader, directly in a mail app,
    everywhere I could only see a part of the text.
    Can someone please explain to me how to fix this on the iPad or within the PDF itself?
    Thank you.

    Have you tried viewing the page at any different (even just slightly different) magnifications?
    I have what may be a related problem.  I created a PDF file from InDesign's "Export" to PDF feature. (See it at http://www.mydfz.com/pot20/2046today.pdf). When I went to that web page and opened it, I noticed a problem on page 2 as follows:
    The ad for "Duds-N-Suds Laundromat" should say "20, 30, & 40lb Dexter machines" between the company name and their hours. If I click on the icon to show the whole page, that space is blank. If I increase or decrease magnification the text appears. The whole page setting is shown as 86.5%. If I type that specific percentage in the box, the text appears. It is only when I use the whole page icon that the text vanishes.  If I try to access the original file on my own machine, the text in question is visible under all the conditions I tested. I couldn't get it to vanish.
    I just tried to access the web version again and this time the text is missing no matter what I do!  I uploaded a fresh copy of the file but it still won't show the text. Very strange!
    Evidently there is some bug in the rasterization routines but it only manifests under certain non-obvious circumstances. I grabbed screen images of the two states (visible and vanished) and will be happy to email them to anyone interested in pursueing this further.
