Converting from publisher to pdf

When I convert from publisher to pdf my page size changes? Why? And how do I stop this from happening?

Try in the Acrobat Print menu:
I'd try choose paper source by PDF Page size
Note appearance of the Print window will be different on PC although the Controls should roughly be the same.

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.

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.

How to use .joboptions file while converting from Word to PDF

Hi,
I'm pretty new to Acrobat. I'm using Acrobat XI. I need to convert a word document to a PDF file which conforms to certain requirements described by a given .joboptions file. The .joboptions file can be opened by distiller, but as far as I know distiller is not invovled in the conversion (Word to PDF) process. So how can I make sure the converted PDF file meets the requirement described by the .joboptions file?

Distiller is used when converting from Word to PDF, if you do it via the Acrobat panel, not the Adobe PDF printer or Word's internal Export to PDF command. If you've loaded your joboptions file in Distiller (via Settings - Add Adobe PDF Settings), then you will see it in the drop-down of Conversion Settings when you click the Preferences button in the Acrobat panel in Word.
After you've selected your job options profile click the Create PDF button, and the file will be converted using the selected options.

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.

Black Pages - Convert from Word to PDF

When I convert a Word document to a PDF, the pages on the PDF document are black. This only happens on select Word document that use a specific cover graphic. I've sent the same document to a co-worker and they were able to convert the document to PDF with no issues. I have verified my preferences with my co-worker and these are the same. I have the latest version of Adobe Reader (10). I was previously able to convert a Word document with the same graphic to PDF without any issues. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Since 11-4-14 every convert from Word to PDF has failed online or desktop - when will this be sorted

Since 11-4-14 EVERY convert from Word to PDF either online or desktop has failed, when will this be fixed?

No replies on here so went online and tried various options including "repair reader installation" plus uninstall and reinstall etc, some posts suggested a repair from the Printers file (Vista) so installed AdobeCreatePDF desktop printer plus Xerox Phaser PS printer as advised. All without any obvious sucess ie still no word docs converted after hours of trying. Then unexpectedly a further test convert attempt succeeded; tested again on desktop plus online and now all works fine as it did before. Who knows why - possibly only Adobe know. Will leave this thread here just in case the fail reappears over next few days!

How do I keep my original text colours when converting from Publisher 2007 to PDF format?

Recently I am finding that when I convert my Publisher 2007 documents to PDF, the text colours do not remain the same, but revert to black or grey? Clip art retains its colours. What am I doing wrong?

They won't show up unless
you have click on each text box
Go Format > Shape
click on lines
chose desired line color for the borders.
once the Borders a colored they will show up in the created PDFs.

HELP! Converting from Publisher - bullets don't convert???

I am trying to convert a Publisher 2003 file by going to File, Print, to Adobe PDF.
Every time it converts, it loses all the bullets and turns them into strings of dots ... I am trying to convert at the highest quality, as it is going to a commercial printer as a PDF.
How do I get this to stop happening? I cannot remove the bullets from the Publisher file, as its a newsletter and that is their format.
Thanks!

Adobe Acrobat 6.0

I was almost hoping it would not show up as embedded.
My font is there, and says its embedded. Back to square one. Any thoughts?
I did try changing the font to see what happens, and the bullets show up as dots no matter what font I select.

Distorting text/images in converting from pmd to pdf

My company uses PageMaker 7.0 to create our manuals and brochures and then converts them into pdf's. I've run into this problem before and found that if I didn't properly place or import an image (not copy and paste an image or text) that once converting it into a pdf only a portion of the image would be there or everyother 3rd letter would exist. Thought we had corrected it. The creator of this last document saw everything correctly but when another employee opened the pdf file through the network it was distorted and wrong. I opened the document and "saved as" in my documents and then everything seemed fine from my computer but then the creator opened the file on his computer and it was wrong. The link info on some of the images is wrong even though it was placed properly- the text was entered in Pagemaker but on the pdf is missing letters and causing odd spacing. I'm at a loss now on how to correct this. I hate to upgrade when pagemaker is more than sufficient for the basic manuals we do. I did notice that I was using Reader 9 wheras they still had 8 on their computers- already had them upgrade but didn't think this would be a real issue. Any ideas on the problem or how to correct would be greatly appreciated!!

Look in the application where the users are generating the PostScript.
Many of them have an option "print last page first", so this naturally
produces a backwards PDF.

Converting from WORD to pdf always fails the first time

OS is XP. Acrobat Pro 8.1.5. When I first convert from WORD, EXCEL, whatever the program appears to be working but no file is created. This happens always on the first time I convert to pdf for the day. Once I do it again, it works and continues to work throughout the day. I turn off my computer at night and again the next day when I come in it doesn't convert the first time but will work again. Is there something in Windows or Acrobat that I can fix to get this to work properly?

If you are using Word 2007 (you don't say) you might try the Microsoft plugin... this is instead of Acrobat

If you are using an earlier version of Word (or Word '07) make sure you have installed all Microsoft Office updates, so you'll know this is not a Microsoft bug

Lines Not Converting From Autocad to Pdf

I am using Windows 7 Pro, Autocad 2011 (full version), Acroplot Pro 2013 and Adobe Acrobat Pro.
Using Acroplot Pro, we convert Autocad files to pdf. We are having issues with some lines, or entire sections of a drawing, not converting to pdf file. As if someone erased random lines from the drawing.
I've walked through this process with Acroplots help line and they say it's not on their end. I know the issues has nothing to do with Autocad because I can re-do this process and the pdf will come out fine the 2nd time. It's rare and random, maybe one file per 100, but causes a problem when you're converting hundreds of files and don't know which one may be wrong.
Thanks in advance.

Sorry if I was unclear, we load our cad files into Acroplot which then utilizes Adobe Acrobat Pro claims it's an issue with Acrobat Pro to create the pdf. After walking through the process with Acroplot, they say it's an issue with Acrobat Pro.

Converting from Word to PDF and printer settings

I have a program that writes letters automatically in Word and if we have a PDF file as an enclosure when the letter prints, it actually converts the word document as a whole to a PDF. This part works great, however, when the letter begins with Word we have the Page setup for the printer to print the first page on letterhead (tray 1) and all pages after to plain paper (tray 2). When the word document converts to pdf, it is printing everything from tray 1 which is letterhead.
Is there any way to convert a document to pdf and keep the page settings as well?
Thanks for any input!

Don't have an answer. However, you might consider creating the WORD document so that the letterhead is built in and you do not need the paper.

Converting from word to pdf

When converting from a Word doc to a pdf using joboptions file settings, the layout changes - text is moved up as if the bottom margin is decreased. This is a problem when the heading on a new page is moved to bottom of the previous page. Please help - thanks.

I've noticed the problem in multiple words docs but it doesn't always happen. I tried again, using print to adobe as I usually do, and noticed that the last line of the first page moved to second page after I converted. However, this didn't happen when I converted using PDFMaker - thanks! I will convert using PDFMaker from now on to hopefully avoid the problem.
