Create pdf using 16 bit windows application

Hi
Just installed a new PC with Vista Ultimate and the Web Premium CS3 suite.
In my printers control panel I have listed Adobe pdf as an available
printer.
This works fine except for one program that uses the 16 bit wow exec. When I tell it to print to the default windows printer it works OK but when I
change the default to adobepdf- it appears nothing happens. There are no
error messages.
If I install "primopdf" the free version and set that as my default printer
the 16 bit program creates a pdf file normally.
Is this an acrobat problem or one relating to my accounts package? if the
latter then why does primo pdf work ok
Any ideas anyone?
thanks
Ian

well make sure you have Service Pack 1 installed and make acrobat is at 8.1.2. Then remove the pdf printer and do a repair of acrobat. Make sure that third party pdf printer is uninstalled before any of this cause that is going to cause you problmes.

  • I am unable to create pdf using adobe printer to a redirected folder on a server running windows server 2003

    I am unable to create pdf using adobe printer to a redirected folder on a server running windows server 2003

    In the app-server-ant.xml file, as indiacted in the error message i am getting, at line 145 it is suppose to get the path to \bin\asadmin.bat from the value of a paramater called 'asadmin'. This value is being set in the beginning of the file.
    The parameter value of 'asadmin' is further referring to value of another parameter called 'javaee.home' which is being set in tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/bp-project/build.properties
    I have checked the values of both these parameters and they are set correctly, so since it is still giving me problems, at line 145 i hard coded the path instead of the parameter name:
    I replaced line
    <exec executable="${asadmin}" failonerror="${failonerror}" dir="${javaee.home}">
    with
    <exec executable="c:/sun/appserver/bin/asadmin.bat" failonerror="${failonerror}" dir="${javaee.home}">
    This works.

  • Scrollbar appearing while creating pdf using AlivePDF

    Hi,
    I am facing a problem while creating pdf using AlivePDF.
    I have a VBox on which I am adding multiple pages. If the content overflows it shows scrollbar. All this is working fine.
    [PHP]
    <mx:VBox x="0" y="80" width="705" height="560" id="content"></mx:VBox>
    [/PHP]
    When I create the pdf using the following code it shows scrollbar in  generated pdf (attached screenshot) while I want all the content without  scrollbar
    [PHP]
    var pg:DisplayObject;
    pg = content.getChildAt(i);
    var pdf:PDF;
    pdf = new PDF (Orientation.PORTRAIT, Unit.POINT, Size.LETTER);
    pdf.setDisplayMode(Display.FULL_WIDTH);
    pdf.addPage();
    pdf.addImage(pg, new Resize(Mode.FIT_TO_PAGE, Position.CENTERED ),0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1,true,'PNG',100);
    [/PHP]
    Please suggest what changes should I make to fix this.

    If the report didn't change, then perhaps the data did. Check
    to make sure the data being supplied to the report is as expected.
    I have run into mysterious errors where an expected value was of
    the wrong type or a required value was now blank. It is also
    possible to have existing logical errors in an iif() or other
    dynamic evaluation expression that was not previously examined;
    until now. So, is there any unexpected or exceptional data the
    report cannot handle?

  • Some PDFs not working in Preview. Mac created PDFS work but windows created PDFS dont

    Some PDFs not working in Preview. I installed adobe reader and then deleted it because the software was aweful and PDFs have been haveing issues ever since. I can open up PDFs created on my Mac in preview just fine...

    I am not sure why where the PDF was created would make a difference but couldnt help but notice that was the difference between the PDF files that work and the ones that give that message.

I have searched my computer for any remaining adobe files, deleted them and restarted my computer but I am still getting this message.

  • Unable to create PDF files from any application in any Acrobat version

    Hello, I am hoping someone can help me find a solution to a problem I am having creating PDF files.
    I have searched the Internet for a solution to this problem and can't find any information that helps me.
    I am running OSX 10.8.5 on a 2.5 GHZ Intel i5 Mac Laptop
    I cannot create PDFs from any program, Quark, Word, ect.
    When I try to print to the PDF printer, the printer pauses when it tries to open the Distiller. When I click resume, it pauses itself again.
    I have tried to save the document and create the PDF from within the distiller itself and get this error log:
    %%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: MMXPR3 ]%%
    %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
    %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
    I was originally using Acrobat 8, But I installed the trial version of Acrobat 11 and it has the same problem.
    The problem seems to be something to do with the distiller. I have a lot of Adobe software so I am trying to avoid a clean/re-install of Adobe software but will do it as a last resort.
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

  • Create pdf using Adobe acrobat sdk

    Hello,
    I'm new to this concept of using adobe sdk to convert a html into pdf.I would like to know few details regarding this..
    I went thorugh the documentation but I did not get any help about the vector image support in the pdf and I aslo want to know abot the dpi support in the pdf.
    I also want to know wether I can create a pdf form a Html page.
    thanks for the help.

    >I want this to be on the server.
    Ok, we can start there - or stop. The Acrobat SDK is for automating
    Acrobat. Acrobat must not be installed on a server. So you cannot use
    Acrobat.
    Adobe have a PDF Library, which can be licensed for server use. But it
    does not have any easy HTML to PDF converter.
    You might look into LiveCycle PDF Generator, a different application
    with a Java API and more, for server use.
    >The dpi what I was talking about was..in the pdf i want a logo to appear that would around 200-300 dpi.That logo is a vector image.
    This seems a contradiction. PDF files can store text, vector images
    and bitmaps/images. If you store a vector image, it remains vector and
    there is no dpi to worry about.
    HOWEVER if you can only convert HTML
    1. HTML does not support any vector formats
    2. HTML often forces images to 72 dpi.
    HTML is not suitable for print quality.

  • Issue creating PDF using IE plugin (Web Capture 10.0)

    Hello,
    Hopefully someone can assist with this and /or confirm it is a bug.
    We are using Adobe X 10.1.4 with IE9 32bit.
    Problem:
    User creates a PDF using the "Covert" button located on the toolbar.  The issue is that this PDF is saved with permission only allowing that user and administrators access to the document.  In Windows the file appears with a padlock.
    it doesn't matter what the security settings are on the folder -- somehow Adobe always changes the permission when creating the file using the Convert button.
    If I create the SAME PDF in the same folder using the File -> Print -> Adobe PDF -- I have no issues.  The PDF is created and inherits the permissions of the folder.
    Now if I do the same tests using the Mozilla plug-in I have no issue -- the file is created with the correct permissions.
    This is driving me and my users crazy as we use a terminal server and multiple people need to access these PDF documents that are being locked.
    Thanks for the input!

  • Creating PDFs using Pages and Mail

    Hi,
    I'm  a contractor and I use Pages and Mail to to create PDFs of invoices that I email to clients in the form of attachments. I have Mail set up to to send only Windows friendly attachments, and to put them at the end of emails. I have one client, the facilities director of a large community college, who consistently cannot open the attachments; he can read the text of the emails, but he cannot open the attachments. He has to send them to his IT department, where they use a mac computer of some kind to open the attachments, which they send them back to him. I've discussed this with their IT department, and they've told me that they have to use a mac to open my attachments. If anyone can offer some advice on this issue, I'd appreciate it.
    Caoim

    I know from my own experience that although there should be no problems with Mail's attachments, just once in a while recipients have the problems you describe.
    The solution that worked for me 100% reliably was to install the paid for plug-in Attachment Tamer from: lokiware.info
    You can use it for free to test it before committing to purchase, but I'm pretty sure all your recipients will be able to cope with all your attachments.
    To elaborate, I used to have to send numerous attachments every day to mostly PC users. Randomly some would complain that I'd either forgotten to include the attachment (I hadn't) or they couldn't read it/open it/save it, etc. It's quite likely the fault was in the way their email client was configured. All I know is that as soon as I installed Attachment Tamer (it was Mail Attachments Iconizer back then) I never had any more complaints. For the knowledge that I wasn't going to be pestered into trying different ways of sending the files I was happy to pay for the plugin.
    (Usual caveat: I have no connection with Lokiware, but very happy to recommend their product).

  • Cannot Create PDF Using "Create PDF" Function in Acrobat 8

    I can create by using "save as" in my Office programs, but only from the Windows Explorer box, not from the menu.  However, I can no longer "create pdf" nor "combine files" inside Acrobat 8.  I get reinstall message.  It starts and hangs up.  I tried reinstalling from CD.   I use this feature a lot to create files and it just quit.  Nothing new has been installed that might interfere. I've made sure that the distiller is not inactive.  Thoughts?

    Unfortunately, alot of us had to upgrade to Office 2010 ...its very unfortunate that adobe doesn't warn us up front about the imcompatibiity problem before they took our money.  Granted they can't give us warnings about every compatibility issue..but considering that MS. Office PDF comversions is a big marketing interest for adobe, I for one would have liked to have known that before I paid for adobe for 9, for I would have waited for 10

    Until Adobe releases Acrobat 10 do not upgrade to MS Office 2010!!!
    It appears that with the release of Acrobat 10, much of Adobe's support to Acrobat versions 7, 8 and 9 will be reduced to the very minimum updates.
    Many CAD programs require upgrades to newer versions of Acrobat. But Acrobat does not support all CAD programs.

    I've a need to populate fields in a 32-bit Windows app with values obtained via my CF application.  Anyone aware of a product that can do this, perhaps Java-based?

    Maybe create an interface.
    1. CF code stored information in DB.
    2. Interface retrieve that data sent by CF in DB, translates that data and send it to the Window App.
    The interface is probably another Window App.
