Converting large .docx files in MS Word to .pdf - help?

While converting .docx files to .pdf, I have found that the 11 x 17 size (when converted) only renders with about 1/4 of the document shown.  I've redone settings and tried over and over to render the complete document without success.  Anyone know how to correct the settings?
Thanks in advance!

Set the printer size in the Adobe PDF printer size. However, that may not do it. You did not indicate how you are converting to PDF and the exact process can make the difference in where things need to be set. Also, what versions of WORD and Acrobat?

    Thanks for replying. I am converting from MS Office Word document to Adobe Acrobat Document and opening with Reader XI - sorry my mistake.
    I now notice another problem. On trying to open a specific hyperlink in the pdf version I get the message  'Acrobat does not allow connection to: www.biblegateway.com'.  Why would there be a restriction? 

  • I am converting a .docx file to a pdf and the text is coming out blurry

    I am trying to convert a .docx file to a pdf and the text keeps coming out blurry. Some sentences seem to be bolded in the pdf as well. All the colored text seems like there's a shadow behind it and all the text in bold seems extra blurry. I am saving the file as a pdf. I tried to print the file as a pdf but it kept crashing. I have adobe acrobat pro and distiller, but I'm not savy about which program does what.
    Thanks for any help!

    If you are trying to convert a Word file, ensure the text is in 100% black only.
    To create PDF's there are hundreds of different combinations that can be used, but only a few will give you a good 'print ready' file, which is what I think you may be after.
    You may have font issues that are stopping the text looking sharp.
    If you have Distiller, you can try to print as .ps (save as postscript), load distiller up and choose one of the high quality settings in the pop down menu.
    If you are working on a Mac you can drag and drop the .ps file direcetly on the dock icon for distiller, or if you are running Windows you will need to navigate to the file via the menu bar (you will need to know where you have saved your .ps file).
    There may be other issues with the original file format that is causing problems with your PDF creation.
    Let me know how you get on.
    Cheers

  • Convert large AVI files to MPEG4 with PE11 to reduce size

    I have a lot of large AVI files from captured VHS tapes. Computer hard disk is full. Should I convert large AVI files to MPEG4 using PE11 to reduce file size? In the future, can I import MPEG4 into PE11 for video projects? I don't want to delete the AVI file until I know I can work with MPEG4.

    uberjaeger,
    My next objective will be to learn PE11 so I can edit the video.

  • Link in a DVD menu to link to text files such as Word, Adobe PDF's ect

    Hello All
    Is there anyway to put a link in a DVD menu to link to text files such as Word, Adobe PDF's etc that are burned into the DVD?
    Hope someone can help me out.

    Is there anyway to put a link in a DVD menu to link
    to text files such as Word, Adobe PDF's etc that are
    burned into the DVD?
    Actually, you CAN'T with iDVD. You CAN put a variety of content into the DVD-ROM area, but that isn't accessable from any menu in an iDVD created DVD.
    If you use DVD Studio Pro, you have some ability to add the kind of links you ask about.

  • I have converted my pdf files to docx files using the Adobe Export PDF but when I drag my converted files to Word there is no text, just blank pages.

    I am really new to Adobe and Creative Cloud and its logic so I hope someone can help me understand it.  My objective is to get my scanned PDF docs converted to text document files so I can open and edit in Word.
    I have scanned my documents into a pdf format. I then dropped the pdf file into my Adobe Export from PDF. It exported and converted them to docx files just fine. When I click on the created docx file I have the correct number of pages but they are completely blank. I don't have any converted text. Am I missing a step?  I have also dropped these files into my Word with the same result. 

    Are you still experiencing a problem with Adobe Send?  We inadvertently introduced a problem earlier today (now fixed), but you reported your issue was last night.
    Anyway, can you check again?

  • Convert Large Binary File to Large ASCI File

    Hello, I need some suggestions on how to convert a large binary file > 200MB to an ASCI File. I have a program that streams data to disk in binary format and now I would like to either add to my application or create a new app if necessary. Here is what I want to do:
    Open the Binary File
    Read a portion of the File into an array
    Convert the array to ASCI
    Save the array to a file
    Go back and read more binary data
    Convert the array to ASCI
    Append the array to the ASCI file
    Keep converting until the end of the binary file.
    I should say that the binary data is 32-bits and I do need to parse the data; bits 0-11, bits 12-23, and bits 31-28, but I can figure that out later. The problem I see is that the file will be very large, perhaps even greater than 1GB and I don't have a clue how to read a portion of the file and come back and read another portion and then stop at the end of the file. I hope to save the data in a spreadsheet.  If anyone has some experience with a similiar situation I'd appreciate any input or example code.
    Thanks,
    joe

    sle,
    In the future, please create a new thread for unrelated questions.  To answer your question, you can use "Split Number" from the Data Manipulation palette.

  • Convert Lotus amipro file to mac word

    HI guys,
    I have old lotus amipro files that I would like to convert to mac word. Is there a conversion kit available or is there any other programs I can use to convert amipro files? Any information would be helpful.
    Thanks

    Do you still have a working copy of AmiPro? If so, the best way to convert your docs would be to open them in AmiPro and Save As > RTF (rich text) format.
    There used to be an AmiPro converter in the MS Office Converter Pack (up to Office 2003), but it was pulled because the code was old and there were security holes. It was called Convpack.exe. You may be able to find it somewhere if you search the web (but note it is a Windows only pack).

  • I cannot convert large psa file

    I have two catalogs created in Photoshop Album 3.2 and I downloaded Elements 11 and had no difficulty finding and converting the smaller file, but the function will not display the larger file to be selected for conversion.    Is size the problem, and if so, how can I cope?

    Sometimes catalog conversion fails. It’s often a question of needing full permission settings and the easiest way to make it work is as an administrator directly from the desktop which bypasses the welcome screen background processes.
    Make a shortcut for organizer as follows:
    On Windows right-click anywhere on the desktop and choose New >> Shortcut
    Browse to Computer OS C:
    Find the PSE Organizer application in Program Files or Program Files (x86) on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
    C: >> Program Files (x86) >> Adobe >> Elements 11 Organizer
    Within the Elements 11 Organizer folder find the application PhotoshopElementsOrganizer (not Photoshop Elements 11.0)
    Select (highlight) PhotoshopElementsOrganizer and click Next
    Then click Finish.
    Now right-click on your new desktop icon and choose “Run As Administrator” Then authorize by clicking yes in the User Account Control dialog.
    From the Organizer menu click:
    File >> Manage Catalogs
    Then click the “Convert” button
    Select your desired catalog from the list of previous versions of PSE to highlight it then click the “Convert” button down below it
    You should receive a message when the conversion has been successfully completed and your earlier catalog will be automatically re-named. Choose the new name from the list and click the “Open“ button and you are good to go.

  • Post Lion/Unable to open .doc or .docx files from MS Word!!  Ideas??

    In Snow Leopard Pages (iWork '09) version 4 worked fine opening existing .doc and .docx files.  Recently installed Lion and tonight needed to open a Word document.  No joy.  I can open as a PREVIEW but not as an editable Pages document.  As a work-around, I can copy/paste PREVIEW to a new Pages document, edit and save as Word to ship back to fellow collaborator.  VERY UNFRIENDLY "feature"!!!!!

    A Google search using the terms <document "could not be opened" iwork"> turns up two possible solutions:
    Pages '09 refuses to create/open existing doc after Lion upgrade
    Re: The document “navidad.numbers” could not be opened.
    The first discussion's solution is to delete/reinstall/update iWork. The second is to edit the underlying code within the document and remove any Unicode characters.
    I recommend you go with solution no. 1. Use Yvan Koenig's script to delete iWork completely (see below), then reinstall and update iWork before attempting to open a Word document. Then let us know how you went.
    Go to https://public.me.com/koenigyvan
    Choose For iWork > iWork '09 > uninstall iWork '09.zip
    Download Uninstall iWork '09.zip, decompress it, open it in AppleScript Editor and click the Run button

  • Memory error converting large jpg file

    Hi
    I am trying to convert a large bmp file (160mb) into a jpg file.
    However I'm getting outOfMemory errors. This is very strange since I have 1.5gb of Ram and I have set the java heap to 1g.
    In any case does anyone know a conversion method that maybe doesn't have to have the whole file in memory at once.
    Heres my code :
    private void convert2jpg(int imageNum)
              String inputFile = "..//images//temp"+imageNum+".bmp";
              RenderedOp src = JAI.create("fileload", inputFile);
              String outputFile = "..//images//plate_3x3in_"+ imageNum+".jpg";
              JAI.create("filestore", src, outputFile, "jpeg",(ImageEncodeParam)null);     
    Thanks

    Why not use ImageIO instead? Something like ImageIO.read(File) which returns a BufferedImage and then use that to write to the desired format using ImageIO.write()??

  • Large excel files won't combine to pdf in Acrobat X or XI

    I have large Excel files (0.3 to 1.2 MB) that I used to combine into a single pdf.  It will only work now on Excel files smaller than 1MB.  This was working a few weeks ago.  What happened?  I have tried on computers that have both Acrobat X and XI (we have both scattered around our building).
    Any ideas?  Thanks.

    FileOpen is a security add-on, which is needed to open some files. Not a part of Adobe software. Maybe you need to upgrade or report it: http://www.fileopen.com/
