Converting from Adobe 8 to Adobe 6

Hello,
We use MS SharePoint version 7 as our Knowledge Management system. The indexer for Adobe pdf files will only index up to Adobe 6. Is there a way to convert our documents from version 8 to version 6?
Thank you in advance.

PDF versions are not the same as the versions of Acrobat. See here a
specification of the various PDF versions:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Document_Format#Adobe.27s_versions
Basically, unless the file contains new features which are not compatible
with older versions, you can save a PDF as an earlier version using Acrobat.

How did my pdf files get converted from 'open with Adobe Reader' to open with Adobe Acobat'? And if I have a ''free'' Acrobat account why does it not open? When I do click on the account it ask me to pay $89.99. I never wanted Acrobat. How can I get -

How did my stored files get converted from 'open with Adobe READER' to 'open with Adobe ACROBAT'? How can I get them re-set to open with 'Adobe Reader'?

It sounds as if you downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro. If you did, uninstall it. Then repair Adobe Reader.
The free Acrobat account has no connection to any of this.

Converting from Word to Adobe

I want to convert a Microsoft Office Word 2007 document to a pdf (Adobe 8 Reader). I don't see the option. ????

No need at all for such substitutes as long as it's Office 2007 apps.
All one needs is the PDF/XPS add-in.
BTW: There are tons of freeware/shareware and low-budget instruments for
PDF creation and none can match Acrobat.
Major problem with almost all of them (and necessarily so if the work as
printer drivers):
*Links* in the source document are not converted. In this is a major
drawback if it comes to usability: URLs in a document are not active,
nor are bookmarks available (a most serious drawback for documents with
TOC, f.e.)

How to stop Nitro file converter from altering all Adobe files

I recently wanted to convert a word document to PDF and downloaded a free version of the program Nitro but as the only free part of the downloaded program was to look at it as it then wanted me to purchase the full program before I could use it so I deleted from my computer. But before it finished uninstalling itself it altered all the Adobe files and documents I had on my computer also it now alters the file type of any Adobe file or document sent to me as an email attachment. How can I stop it? would taking the manufacturer to court sort them out? If anyone has any ideas of how to prevent or alter what has happened send to email address [email protected]

Hi Sara
To a point what you said to resolve the problem worked but what the Nitro programme did was convert all my Adobe documents and files into a pdf that can only be opened by a Word programme. If I click on the icon which used to be an Adobe file which has now become a form of greyed out Word icon it automatically opens M/S Word but cannot read it as it’s a pdf file.
Do you know of any way I can convert them back to an adobe readable file?
Many thanks

Converting from Excel to Adobe PDF

I have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional and Windows XP. The excel worksheet is on a landscape page and reduced to say 65%. It has wording on the left side that stretches through five cells. Some of the wording gets cut off. Maybe the last letter gets cut off in half, but not all the words in different cells get cut off. Some of the wording that does not get off go beyond the cells that do get cut off. This happens on some worksheets. The next worksheet can have the same page setup and nothing happens. One of the solutions we have found is that we have to add 3 spaces to the last word of the cells that is being cut off. That seems to fix the problem. Another is that we print the page in excel (works perfect) and then e-fax the page to ourselves and inserted in the document. But doing this last things keeps us from printing a final version for the client, since there is a difference. Any solutions that could solve this?

Change your printer to the Adobe PDF printer and then set the cell sizes in Excel. This is just the normal Excel adjustment to the printer.

Converting from sRGB to Adobe 1998

Hello!
I am an artist doing digital paintings on Photoshop CS3.
I drew an outline of my drawing in one shade of blue and realised the colour profile was in sRGB.
I have now converted the psd document to colour profile Adobe 1998.
When I start to put colour in, underneath the blue outline layer -will the colours be of Adobe 1998 quality?
(I plan to do gradients/blend colours and eventually print my work out. I have heard the colours can look choppy when done on sRGB mode)
Probably a silly question but I am new to this and would like to get it right
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thank you
Natalie

Yes the new colours will be Adobe RGB quality. (But I dont think you need it, id just stick with 'safer' sRGB). A wider gamut like Adobe RGB may make banding worse unless you're working in 16bit.

Cannot convert from excel to adobe (using acrobat 8 standard)

Document will begin conversion and then just get stuck forever in an unending loop. When I cancel the program (excel) get a prompt that says that Acrobat was unable to complet PDF process!!! Help!!!

Open the file in Excel. Then go to the FILE menu and select print. Chose the Adobe PDF printer and see if you get a PDF -- all of the other Acrobat processes depend on this printing process. If not, report what error messages you get. I suspect that you have deactivated AcroTray.exe that is a required part of the conversion part. If you like to test the latter, use the print-to-file option in the printer dialog, then open the file in Distiller to complete the process. The latter should either give you a PDF or a mess of error messages telling you why not.

How do you stop DNG Converter from embedding Adobe's ACR default settings instead of custom settings?

I notice that the new version of Adobe DNG Converter (8.6, and maybe earlier) appears to place Adobe's ACR defaults in the converted file. Thus, the converted files open up in Bridge with an indication that they already have settings made, and, hence, ACR does not apply the custom camera settings. One has to Clear Settings first in Bridge, then open in ACR.
This behavior is new, perhaps to 8.6. But it's presence defeats the purpose of having custom Camera Defaults.
Is there any way to prevent DNG Converter from installing settings?

What do you mean by “custom camera settings”? Do you mean you’ve changed the Camera Raw defaults for a particular camera and those aren’t being seen until you do a Reset? Or do you mean some sort of Nikon-settings that Adobe never looks at?
Also at what point in the workflow are you converting these files, just after copying them to your hard-disk and before touching them with any other Adobe software, or after they’ve been adjusted in Nikon software, or after they’ve been adjusted in Bridge/ACR, initially as NEFs?
I mean my custom camera defaults that are set by the Save New Camera Defaults for a given camera.
My workflow is to take my original raw files first into Adobe DNG Converter. I then open the folder in Bridge. At this point I notice that my original raw files remain unaltered (there is no "settings" icon in the top right corner – circle with two lines and up-arrows – in the image's thumbnail), but the converted dng's (otherwise untouched and unopened in ACR) have a "settings" icon. When I open the original raw file in ACR, it opens using my custom camera defaults. When I open the otherwise virgin dng in ACR, it opens using the Adobe defaults (the same defaults that would be employed if no custom camera default had been set).
This behavior is new. DNGs formed by earlier versions of the DNG Converter did not apply any settings to the converted file, and when they opened in Bridge, they were given the custom camera settings.
In order to retain the old (and proper) behavior, I now have to take the just-converted documents into Bridge, select them, and immediately apply Develop Settings/Clear Settings. That gets rid of the settings that have been installed by the DNG Converter (as well as the "settings" icon on the thumbnail).
I notice there is a new feature in Adobe DNG Converter 8.6, namely, a panel-specific toggle between the settings and the default settings. This indicates to me the likelihood that Adobe has been making some alterations with the settings that is having unintended consequences. It clearly is not proper for DNG Converter to be adding (installing) settings, because that prevents the custom camera default settings from being applied, and hence defeats the purpose of the custom camera default settings.

Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?

Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?
Depending on the system version, and Office Word version:
- a pure URL link starting with http or even www sometimes works in PDF, either produced by Aperçu or Adobe, sometimes does not work;
- other kind of links where the text under display is not a URL, never work!
I like everything with Apple computers and software, except PDF generation. Output files are usually bigger in size, and no better quality, than under Windows. Furthermore, it is weird that something as common as hyperlinks does not work correctly!
I related this question with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, but the problem is still there with Mac OS Lion.
This problem seems to have been around for years, without any proper solution from Apple and/or Adobe! To me, this is very embarrassing!

Greetings NoNameGiven,
If I understand the problem correctly (I’m not sure I do) you would prefer ‘iii’ to be read as “eye eye eye” rather than “three”? The alt text property is the only way that I know of to make this happen. Hope this helps.

Why is Adobe changing my fonts when I convert from publisher to pdf?

I've just started using the pdf conversion plug-in to convert from publisher 2007 to pdf. The way it was explained to me was that no matter what style of font you use it should be embedded in the file so that when someone opens the file they will read it in exactly the same style as I used to create it. I am a volunteer for a non-proft org. (my church) and each year we publish a small booklet and sell space to local businesses who contribute to the well-being of my church. This is the first year I'm using the pdf conversion but when I checked how the ad would look in adobe reader some of the fonts were changed and I can't seem to correct the problem. It doesn't happen with all the fonts which makes it even stranger. Anyone got any advice, suggestions, etc. Thanks.
Manny

I'm having the same problem and unfortunately, it doesnt matter which software i'm using... Word,
Publisher, and even photoshop. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro and no matter how I try to convert, i'm still getting the same problem.

Hi divabuyer,
It sounds like you're trying to convert to Word from within Reader, is that so? Are you signed in to Reader? If so, you'll see your name in the upper-right corner of the Reader application window.
If that doesn't work, please try llogging in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf with your Adobe ID and password.
Let us know how it goes.
Best,

When using Adobe Export PDF - I cannot save a document after converting from PDF. Why not?

My service is converting from SendNow Plus to Adobe Send; what is th maximum file size?

My service is being converted from Adobe SendNow Plus to Adobe Send. There is very little detail on differences that I can expect between the two services.
What is the maximum file size that I can send? Is there a maximum?
Do I have a storage limit? It was 2GB with SendNow.
The files in SendNow have a time limit, but I cannot find anywhere this is defined in Send.
Lastly, my subscription rate is higher than the rates quoted on the Adobe website, but I cannot find a way to correct this or make a change.

Hi Raghuveer,
Thanks for quick reply. Sorry, I prefer not to share my designs so I cannot send you my sample of Ai file or screenshots. I hope you understand.
Anyway, I have about 50 to 60 elements used 3D effects and 60 elements used brushes. And about 20 some elements I defined as pattern swatches (about half of them used gradient). Also, added drop shadow, zigzag effect and accent edges on 5 elements. And 3 layers filled with patterns (my artboard size is 1220 px W x 1500 px H). I have my layers/artboard/ color & pattern swatches/ appearance panels opened up when working in Ai.
I hope this gives you some idea how much I am doing and what I am doing with my Ai file. And hope that you can advise if there should be problem if doing a lot in one file? I just cannot stop designing sometimes.
Added this- I have 18 artboards and 22 layers in my Ai file. Photoshop doesn't have this problem when working with a lot of layers, only Illustrator does.
Thank you very much!!

Are there problems converting from Adobe Bridge to Organizer?

HI,
I've searched for information on this and haven't found anything so maybe there aren't any problems :} but...Murphy and I are good friends so I have to ask if there are problems.
I currnetly run Elements 8 on a MacBook and have about 2000 pictures in Bridge and some in Iphoto. I use bridge for pictures for web design and Iphoto for family stuff. I 'help out' with the computer stuff at a cat shelter in town and they have just bought Elements 10 and run the PC version. I am thinking of upgrading to 10 so I will be familiar with their version but am worried about converting from bridge to organizer. Are there any known problems? Is there a tutorial some place about the conversion from bridge to organizer.
Thanks for any ideas

You have no pictures in Bridge. Bridge is just a browser; it just shows the current state of any folder to which you point it, so that's no problem. If you really want to use organizer, it will pick up your metadata keywords when you import the photos. Photos from iphoto will be duplicated on import to the organizer (normally it just makes a dbase pointer to the existing photo) to avoid inadvertently writing into the iphoto library, which can corrupt it and cause loss of the photos it contains.
You will lose any stacks in bridge when you import the photos into organizer.
