Create a downloadable PDF

Hi There
I am trying to create a downloadable price list on this page http://www.justadwater.co.uk/BOS/pricing.html
I can create it so it automatically opens in my browser but I actually want the PDF to download to someones pc.
Can someone tell me where I am going wrong please.
The PDF and download links presently are not functioning on the server.
Thanks
Graham

Either:
a) leave it as a PDF and include instructions on the page for visitors to right-click "Save Target As" (which most will probably know anyway)
or
b) to force a download, zip the PDF, link to the zipped file and upload the zip file.

How do I create a downloadable pdf link in DW?

I am setting up a web page but can't figure out how to make
it possible for viewers to download a pdf version of a resume from
the site? Any help...

post the resume, put a link to it.
if you don't want them viewing it in their viewer, zip it.
If you haven't already, you would be well served searching
through the
archives for the answer to your question. The archives can be

Safari Will Not Download pdfs: On One Site and from One Computer Only

On only one computer, at only one web site (my own creation), I suddenly cannot get pdfs to open in Safari 4.0. What might be happening?
1. I have created 5 web sites for my business. I use RapidWeaver from RealMacSoftware.
2. Each of the 5 sites I’ve created has downloadable pdfs.
3. Two of the sites are password protected, but this does not appear to be the source of the problem.
4. One of these two protected sites (Site A) will not open any pdfs on the site in a Safari browser window on my Intel iMac running 10.5.7. When I click on a pdf link in Safari, I get the gray spinning wheel on a white page (which does not stop after 10+ minutes). If I try to reload the page, a white page results. Trying any other pdf link on this site produces nothing but a white page.
5. If I option-click on the link, the pdf downloads fine, but I then have to open it. It does not open in Safari, but rather Reader.
6. This behavior does not occur on two other Macs in my office. One, a MacBook Pro running 10.5.7 and Safari 4.0, opens the pdfs in Safari just fine. Another, a G5 running Tiger with Safari 4.0, also works fine. (FWIW: No problems on Dell running XP Home, via either Explorer or Firefox.)
7. The behavior also does not occur on the other protected site I have created (Site B) or on any of the other unprotected sites. All computers, all browsers—no problems.
8. I have the latest Adobe Reader version (9.1.2).
9. I have repaired permissions and restarted—no luck.
10. I have republished Site A through RapidWeaver, but there is no change. My web host had a power failure a day or two ago, but all sites were up and running yesterday.
Any clues about what’s going on? I have intentionally not downloaded the apparently available Safari version 4.0.1 because of the several problems reported on the boards.
Message was edited by: Richard Setterberg

I tried logging in to the guest account and got a slightly different result: Two of the five websites I've created with RapidWeaver now do not display pdfs using the Adobe Reader plugin.
The common thread now is that the two that don't work are the password protected sites. When I boot back into my main account, the original problem returns: Only one site doesn't work; the other one does.
Still only on one computer.

How do I create a downloadable link from an Interactive PDF file created out of InDesign CS6?

Hello,
I created an Interactive PDF file out of InDesign and would like to make the large file a downloadable link and share it with the user in an email. I do not want to use DropBox or GoogleDrive.
The company I contract for has their own site - do I insert the file into the site or can I create a separate link for it?
I will be recreating these presentation PDF's constantly, so I would like to know if there is a simple way to create this link for files in the size of 7-12MB.
Any ideas on downloadable links? I do have flash - but rarely use, perhaps load the file out of flash?
Thank you so much for your help,
Megan

Hi Willie,
Thanks for your help. Most likely contact the company who maintains the
site then to share the file with them I'm assuming?

Adding a print button, a "download" PDF button and a navigation bar in a SWF created by InDesign

I can't find a way to add "PDF features" on a SWF file exported from InDesign CS5.5 such as:
- a print button
- a download PDF button
- a navigation bar (outside of the pages)
edocker provides these features but it is pretty expensive and does not allow a lot of customization.
Would anyone have an idea of how to do it ?
Thank you.

eDocker actually allows you to use all the interactive features you can create in InDesign. It kind of "wraps" your exported SWF into a user interface with all those 3 elements asked + more (zoom for instance)
Check out these links:

How do I create an accessible PDF for Thesaurus with many chapters, from InDesign CS 5.5 and Acrobat

Hi folks,
I have redesigned a Thesaurus (controlled vocabulary for an Agency's archives) in InDesign CS 5.5. I am now preparing an accessible PDF from the many files (using a Book created in InDesign). The front cover, front matter and back cover are not part of the Book, to keep the page numbering simple.
The Book includes two main sections, an Alphabetical display and a Hierarchical display of terms and their relations. I created chapters per alphabet listings, i.e. Alphabetical Display A, B, C, etc. So there are over 50 chapters, including cover, front matter, etc.
I've successfully made the front cover and front matter PDFs after viewing videos here: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/accessibility-adobe/preparing-indesign-files-for-accessibility/ and downloading and using this recommended Action for Acrobat: InDesign CS5_5 Accessibility Touchup.sequ
Several questions specific to this project don't seem to be addressed in the videos, however.
First, I'd like to know if I can create an accessible PDF using the Book function > Export Book to PDF. Or do I need to make a PDF per chapter? The book has over 50 chapters (by alphabet, twice), so creating them one by one will take a lot more time, but I'll do it if that's the best practice.
After creating the PDFs, if I use (in Acrobat): Create > Combine Files into PDF to make one full PDF (over 600 pages BTW), will the final PDF retain accessibility settings? Do I need to run the Accessibility Report again for the combined PDF?
I used InTools.com Power Headers plugin to add a page header that automatically shows the new first term used per page. So, one chapter (with Chapter Title as H1) will have a different page header (which will be H2) per page, however the text flows through the whole chapter. I don't see where to add the page headers to the Article Window in InDesign. Do I add in this order: H1, H2, text (for whole chapter), H2, H2, H2, etc. Will I need to work on the PDF in Acrobat, where pages will be shown, in order to get the correct H2 with the correct text on the page? Am I missing something?
Will I have any issues with Bookmarks that requires a specific workflow?
I think that's about it, though I might run into more questions as I progress through the project.
Thanks, Marilyn

I understand why you need updated running headers in your book. To a sighted reader these serve as a guide to where you are and help you find things quickly. In addition, if you are exporting your data to XML or HTML from the tagged PDF it would also be important to have these in the proper location.
But for accessibility purposes, it doesn't have to be there because the screen reader reads everything in linear order, line by line. No one is looking at the page. A user listening to the screen reader read the page is going to hear this heading, just before the actual word itself. So they will hear the first word on the page twice. It's not the end of the world if it's there, but such headings are not necessary for accessibility unless they are not repetitive and contain information that is not otherwise available.
So I would say, fine if you need them or want them there, it's just one word.
I think you should try exporting your book to PDF (or even just a chapter of the book) and look at the tags panel in Acrobat to see if you are getting the result you want. I can't tell you exactly what you should do to get those results, you are using a plug-in I don't have.
I can tell you I didn't have to add the headers to any article at all, they just automatically export if the other articles in the file are added and you don't select the header style option "not for export as XML."
You may not experience the same results with your plug-in, but I think it will probably work the same way.
Give it a try and best of luck.

How do I create on-line PDFs which will read them to visually impared customers?

I have seen a handful of unanswered questions about getting Adobe Reader to read aloud, on-line or downloaded PDF content to people who are visually impaired. None of them seem to answer the questions about Acrobat X.1 or backward compatibility. Before I spend $45 for one chapter from a book, perhaps one of you experts know of a simple site which explains how to comply with the ADA Americans with Disabilities’ Act.
I know there are many variables like OS, Reader version and user ability to enable their sound card and configure a few settings.
This summary is excerpted from chapter 23 of The Acrobat X PDFBible by Ted Padova, published by Wiley. Follow the link further below to download the complete 16-page sample chapter. Adobe Acrobat is compliant with U.S. federal code regulating document accessibility for vision- and motion-challenged persons. This means that screen readers can intelligently interpret the PDFs you create; in other
words, PDF files can be read aloud in a reading order as a sighted person would read a document. Through an extensive set of keyboard shortcuts available in Acrobat, almost anyone with vision or motion challenges can share your documents and read them. In order for a document to be accessible, you must use authoring applications capable of delivering a document's structure to Acrobat. You need to know something about the internal structure of documents and which programs to use to create the structure required by Acrobat to make a document accessible. Not all the content in a document travels through the PDF-creation process with the information necessary to make a document completely accessible. Therefore, you need to perform some work in Acrobat to either add accessibility or to polish up a document for delivery to a screen reader in a form that makes sense to the user.
In chapter 23 of The Acrobat X PDF Bible, you will learn how to check documents for tags and accessibility, add additional tags and arranger eading orders. Topics covered include:
Using screen readers can interpret accessible PDF files and create audio output for people with vision and motion challenges. Using Adobe PDFMaker for Microsoft products, version 2000 or higher, including Word, Excel, Visio and so on; Adobe PageMaker 7 and higher; and Adobe FrameMaker, Adobe LiveCycle Designer, Adobe InDesign 2.0 and higher are capable of creating tagged and accessible PDF forms. Adding tags to PDF documents from a menu command within Acrobat Standard and Acrobat Pro and Pro Extended. Checking files for accessibility with the Quick Check command in Adobe Reader, Acrobat Standard, and Acrobat Pro and Pro Extended or with a Full Check in Acrobat Pro and Pro Extended. Tagging documents so they contain a structure tree. Elements in the tree locate respective elements in the document if you enable the Highlight Content menu command. Adding alternate text to elements in Acrobat by addressing the element's properties. http://www.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-0470612916.html
Thanks if you know something helpful

An accessible PDF is a well-formed Tagged PDF.
You start with the proper authoring application that has tag management (there are not that many - discussed below).
Your Tagged output PDF must be post-processed with Acrobat Pro.
You evaluate the post-processed PDF.
If satisfactory, you deploy the well-formed Tagged PDF.
Adobe Reader or Acrobat (from 8.x forward) both provide the read out loud feature (ROL).
While this is not equivalent to a full assistive technology (AT) application it can be useful for simpler narrative content.
However, PDF page content consists of graphic objects (text included) that are painted to the page in a sequence/order that is "machine" centric rather than human centric.
So, the raw print stream's read order can jump around.
(Look over ISO 32000-1 Forward paragraph 2 & Sections 8.1 & 8.2 to get a feel for what "PDF" is (& isn't).)
PDF became an ISO Standard in 2008. This is currently ISO 32000-1. ISO 32000-2 is expected to be out in 2012.
In terms of accessible PDF, ISO 14289-1 is expected to be out in 2012.
ISO 14289 will define/describe the requirements for accessible PDF.
Adobe introduced "Tagged PDF" with Acrobat 5.x (PDF version 1.4) "Full" release.
For Acrobat 5.x this was an add-on that you took from the install CD-ROM.
Since then "Tag" creation, management, etc. has been included with the install of:
(n.b., PDFMaker provides "tag management")
--| Acrobat 6.x Pro (PDF version 1.5)
--| Acrobat 7.x Pro & 3D (PDF version 1.6)
--| Acrobat 8.x Pro & 3D (PDF version 1.7)
--| Acrobat 9.x Pro & Extended (ISO 32000 & Adobe Supplement BaseVersion 1.7, ExtensionLevel 3)
--| Acrobat X Pro (ISO 32000 & Adobe Supplement BaseVersion 1.7, ExtensionLevel 3)
If the PDF is a well-formed Tagged PDF then ROL works its way down the structure tree (which can be viewed in Acrobat Pro's Tags panel).
A well-formed Tagged PDF (built to comply with ISO 32000 currently & going forward built to comply with ISO 14289 / ISO 32000 will, in fact meet current Section 508 criteria and Section 508 Refresh criteria.
Actually, it will met more rigorous criteria (Section 508, compared to other nations' requirements is somewhat anemic).
For English, ROL will read left to right; top down.
Not very useful for understanding tables and some other aspects of more developed content.
AT uses the structure tree to convey the PDF's logical hierarchy and semantic content flow to users.
So, a well-formed Tagged PDF is an essential for users of AT.
Section 14 of ISO 32000-1 provides discussion of logical structure and tags.
An ISO approved copy is at Adobe:
ISO 32000-1
In a nut shell, you'd want to provide a well-formed Tagged PDF.
To effectively consume a downloaded well-formed Tagged PDF end-users will want to use AT (NVDA (free, open source), JAWS, etc.) rather than Adobe Reader / Acrobat ROL.
As to Ted's PDF Bible.
I've got 'em on my bookshelf. Most excellent global references for all things Acrobat.
However, to deploy well-formed Tagged PDF requires more detailed references.
There is the up front authoring. Content must be mastered so as to support output of a well-formed Tagged PDF.
There is the requisite post-processing of the PDF with Acrobat Pro.
There is the requisite understanding of what the tags/elements are & how to properly use them.
There is the need for specific "how-to" with examples.
As to a "simple site" - - well, ahhh, "simple" precludes anything of usable worth, eh.
A search on variations of "accessible PDF" will provide links to resources that provide "how-to".
One resource is the Accessiblilty Forum at the Acrobat User Community.
AUC Accessibility Forum
An older thread there has links to Adobe "how-to" for various Acrobat releases.
An older list of reference material
As the core of Acrobat's accessibility features are largely the same since Acrobat 5.x older how-to documents are still useful.
For the most part, the most definitive discussions of the how-to & the why are in older Adobe documents.
Of course, stuff comes & goes out on the web so the links may or may not be functional.
(n.b., you'll have to copy-paste the URLs into a browser's address bar)
However, a search on a document's title may provide an alternative link.
If not, send me a forum PM.
Remember that the key to success (for a well-formed Tagged PDF) is in the authoring.
Proper authoring with an application that provides adequate Tag management is critical.
--| Adobe FrameMaker or InDesign with Acrobat Pro
--| MS Word with Acrobat Pro (for PDFMaker & ability to perform requisite post-processing of the PDF) for pre Office 2007
--| MS Word 2007 / 2010 have a Save As PDF feature that can provide tag management -- but Acrobat Pro is still needed to perform requisite post-processing
--| Open Office (& Acrobat Pro for requisite post-processing)
Be well...

Can no longer download PDFs, advice & suggestions requested.

I work in an office with a Mac that has OS X 10.4.11 (400 MHZ Power PC G4). I have Acrobat Standard version 7.1.3, which is horribly outdated, but finances only allow for free upgrades.
A month or so ago I was no longer able to download PDF files, and at times my work requires me to download various government forms. I had Adobe Acrobat Standard 7.1.1 when the trouble started, but was able to download free upgrades to the present Acrobat 7.1.3.
My favorite browser is Safari 4.0.3, and when I try to download a PDF in Safari I get a nearly blank screen, but in the upper left hand corner is a small blue box with a question mark inside.
A few months ago I downloaded Firefox 3.5.3, and for a time that worked well, but now when I open Firefox and attempt to download PDF files I get a blank screen, and up in the gray bar area (where saved websites are shown) I get what appears to be the web address for the particular PDF file, but the download isn't there.
This computer also has Internet Explorer 5.2.3, and I believe higher upgrades aren't available for Macs. I started working here in 2005, and even back then Explorer didn't work well, it seemed to only half-open a website. (My terminology is bad, I don't know how to say technical things properly.) For years I've been ignoring Explorer, but just to see what would happen, today I opened Internet Explorer 5.2.3, attempted to download a PDF form, and it more or less worked. I went to the IRS website, downloaded a 1040 form, and was able to fill in the blanks. I then went to our state Revenue website, was able to download tax forms, but wasn't able to fill in the blanks. I don't like Internet Explorer, but if it was possible to get a free upgrade that would work with Macs I'd download it, just to have access to needed PDF forms.
Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to once again have the ability to download PDFs while using Safari or Firefox? I posted a question on a Safari discussion forum, but didn't get any answers. I've spend the last couple of weeks checking out this Adobe site, found several questions about PDF downloading problems, but haven't come across an answer.
Anyone who can offer help will have my undying gratitude.

Dear Graffiti,
I just had a chance to play around with the control>click suggestion. When I'm in Safari and get my "blue question mark in a box" I can control>click the question mark, choose "save image to the Desktop" from the drop down menu, and get the form to download. Unfortunately the fill-in form is in Preview, and not Adobe, so I can see the form and print it out, but I can't fill in the blanks.
When I did control>click on the form name at the website, instead of getting my blue question mark I got a different drop down menu. One option was "download linked file". That seemed like a possibility, so I clicked that. I got a message that went something like this "view.asp.html is an application. Are you sure you want to open an application?" (or maybe it was create an application) Anyway, I didn't want to mess around with applications for each PDF file I try to open, so I canceled that.
I tried control>click in Firefox and in Internet Explorer, and discovered that the reason why Explorer had been sort-of working before is because it had been opening the forms in Preview when I was just clicking.
So control>click gives me different options, but I'm not able to figure out how to download the PDFs into Adobe Acrobat, which is how it used to work.

I just started a free trial of the Adobe XI product that allows me to create an editable PDF. I'm done creating the form and ready to export it. When I click Export PDF from the File menu, it says Adobe encountered an unexpected error. What am I doing wrong?

Good to know — there is no such application as "Adobe XI".
"Adobe" is the name of the company.
"XI" is indicative of the use of either Acrobat XI or Reader XI.
Neither Acrobat XI Pro (for which Adobe provides a free, fully functional 30-day trial) nor Adobe Reader XI (the free to download and use PDF viewer that Adobe provides) have an "Export PDF" entry under "File".
"Export PDF" only is present in Adobe Reader XI over on the right on the "Tools" panel.
The "Tools" panel provides a way for a user of Adobe Reader XI to connect to various By Subscription online services (gotta pay eh).
Export PDF is one of these. A subscription lets you send a PDF file to the online internet service (aka "cloud" service). The service then exports to a supported file format (Word / Excel / ...) and the user selects / directs where the output file is to be saved on the user's local machine.
Of course to use any of the online subscription services one must have an active (paid up in full) subscription to the service.
So ---- As described the puzzle pieces don't fit eh.
What specific Adobe (the company) applications are you using?
Acrobat XI Pro? Adobe Reader XI? Both?
Be well....

sorry for hijacking but I have a related question to do with certificates.
I had to set up virtual domains manually instead of through the GUI and the server ssl site is now locked to a certificate that is about to expire and no longer needed, I can't change the certificate in the web gui because it was created manually, I can't delete the certificate because it is assigned to the server ssl website and I can't manually edit the conf files to point to a different certificate becasue it breaks it, any ideas?

Is it possible to create a editable pdf with validation(required field) using Adobe Acrobat pro version?

Hi,
the subject says it all. I have downloaded the trail version to see if its possible to create a editable pdf with validation(required field) using Adobe Acrobat pro version?
Basically, I will have to create a pdf form where users fill it and send it back to me. there will be required fields (the textbox and check box) that user need to fill before saving the editable pdf?
Is it possible. if so, can someone kind enough to point to me right directions?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for reply. What I am trying to achieve is to give an option for the user to download the pdf form and once the user tries to save the pdf, it validates with the required field. I managed to create the editable pdf with required fields option. I just need that validation to be done when user click on save file. How can I achieve this? thanks so much for your help.

The Downloaded PDF file does not contain the Signature through BSP pages

HI,
We have an requirement for Distributing the FORM 16 to all Employee's through our Website, where the user will login and download his own FORM 16 ( TDS Certificate)
This FORM 16 ( TDS Certificate ) is generated in SAP ( ECC 6.0 ) in Payroll Module.
To satisfy the above requirement we have done the following steps.
1) First we have modified the standards SAP Sapscript(Layout) to incorporate the Signature of Authorised Payroll Person.
We have done this by uploading the BMP file ( though t-code SE78 ) and then calling this file in the Standards layout which prints the FORM 16 document.
2) WE also Modifed the Dirver program to Download the above document in a .PDF file.
The Program creates the seperate file for each employee and assigns the employee number as a file name to each downloaded file. These all files are downloaded on a Users Machine.
We opened the Downloaded .PDF files, and checked for the Signatures. The Signature were comming perfect as it ws uploaded.
3) We uploaded these all FORM 16 PDF file off all emlpoyee's to a different SERVER ( BW 7.0 ). With the help of BASIS person, using the FTP utility.
4) We wrote a BSP program to download this ulploaded PDF Files.
BUT we are facing a PROBLEM in the DOWNLOADED PDF file.
The Downloaded file does not contain the Signature which is there is the Original file we uploded this server.
All other data in the dowloaded PDF file is Perfect other than the Signature.
When we open the downlaoded PDF file it give's following message on the Signautre page.
" Xobject not found named 00013"
The number of the Object comes different to different files.
We are using Function module 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING' to Convert string to Xstring
We are using the the " CALL METHOD CL_BSP_UTILITY=>DOWNLOAD" for downloading the PDF file.
Please suggest some solution if you can
Thanks in advnace.

Can I create an interactive PDF without distributing it?

Hi guys,
I am very new to this and I have been asked by the development team here at work to play around and create a form. The idea behind this is that we want to be able to create an interactive PDF form that can be saved without uploading it to anywhere by one of our users (as they may not have access to the internet when they are filling out the form). At a later stage the user will need to upload the PDF into our system which will read the form's content and upload that data to the database. Our system is a Java web based back office system.
Likewise - we will also need to pre-populate data into the form if it is present in our database when the form is downloaded for use.
So I am basically looking for some way to change the security settings on the PDF. I know it is possible but I cannot see how to do it and I cannot find any help on how to do it and it's driving me completely insane!

Hi,
You can do this in LC Designer, but I strongly recommend that you have a look at our summary of restrictions depending on how you deploy your form:
It is available here: https://acrobat.com/#d=3lGJZAZuOmk8h86HCWyJKg and here: http://cookbooks.adobe.com/post_Using_LiveCycle_Forms_in_Acrobat_and_Reader-16518.html
You can send out a form, but if the users have Reader they will not be able to save data that they fill in. They will be able to submit the data, but only as xml.
If you reader enable the form to allow users with Reader to save data, then data connections is turned off.
Good luck,
Niall

"first open Acrobat and accept the End User Agreement License" with black window? Cannot open downloaded PDFs

I have CS5 installed and operating in my MacBook Pro since 2012.
Several months ago, I ran not an issue where by, when trying to download PDFs from any website, I get the following back screen and message"
"Before proceeding, you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement"
The screen gives me no options to do this and, regardless of what I do, the same window with the same message opens…….
Does anyone know how to address this? FYI. I can use Acrobat Pro 9 to assemble and create PDFs, this is the ONLY problem that I am dealing with.
Thanks so much!
Steve

Hello Rave!
Thanks for remembering me!
No, I was never able to get this to work.
What I found, however, is that I can view the pdfs normally if I use Firefox instead on my default, Safari…….not much of a fix BUT at least I can access the pdfs now……..I just don't understand why this seems to happen in Safari only………Safari is updated to the latest version via Software Update in Mac OS 10.7.5….
Thanks again!
Steve
