Hi,
If you are subscriber to PDF Pack then you can simply convert your JPEG files to PDF files using "Convert to PDF" from https://createpdf.acrobat.com/signin.html with your Adobe ID and password or "CreatePDF" in Adobe Reader X or XI.
Thank you.

Error message in Adobe Pdf in printer device panel when trying to create a pdf document. I have CS3

Error message in Adobe Pdf in printer device panel when trying to create a pdf document. I have CS3 Web Premium with Acrobat Professional 8. I use it fine on my old computer with Windows XP. I recently got a new laptop with Windows 7. I installed all my Adobe programs, and I think they are working. When I look at Adobe PDF in the device section of the Control Panel it looks okay. But when I try to print a Word, Photoshop, or HTML page in PDF, nothing happens. I have tried printing both as File>print and using the PDF tab on the top menu bar. I look at the device in the control panel and it has the yellow error warning symbol and suggests trying to troubleshoot. I look at the document list and it says status "error". When I try troubleshooting Windows suggests doing some Home Sharing and also suggests canceling the document I'm trying to print. I tried re-installing just Acrobat 8 from CS3 (and have to use Photoshop CS4 disk for shared documents I guess). I ran into a can't locate adobepdf_dll file, so did a web search on this issue and found a suggestion that I find and use the adobepdf_dll_64 file and may have to (I did have to) remove the "_64" for it to work. I think I successfully reinstalled using that dll file- no errors came up anyway. But still when I try printing/converting a photoshop, webpage, or word document into pdf, the pdf device in control panel still gives the error status on the document and gives the same troubleshooting advice. Help?

I just compared the properties between the two computers. On the old computer it has the port as "My Documents/*.pdf". On my new computer it lists the port as "LPT1". I tried changing the port to "Print as File", but when I try printing a photoshop picture as pdf, I get a "Access Denied". I then tried to create a new port on the device control panel. I tried to create a local port "My Documents/*.pdf" port but was denied. I ten tried to create a new port type and control panel asked for an INF file. I wonder if this is where my problem lies. Thoughts?

While creating a PDF document usinf Adobe Acrobat Pro 9, it generates additional blank pages.

While creating a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro, it generates additional blank pages. How do I resolve this issue?

I might make a wild guess that you are using WORD and have used hard page breaks. If that is the case, then likely what happens is when you print to PDF the document is being reflowed to match the printer and the forced page break may end up on the next page and be forcing a second page. Just a guess.

Print Problem - PDF is OK on Windows 7, but OK on Windows XP with "Acrobat Reader An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem."

I have received a PDF which prints fine in Windows 7 but with Windows XP I get "Acrobat Reader An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem." and a blank piece of paper passes through the printer. I appreciate that Windows XP is no longer supported but I would like to think that the solution to this problem is not too difficult!
I have tried Acrobat 9, 10 and 11.
Any advice (apart from use Windows 7! ) would be most welcome.
Many thanks.

If you use the same Adobe Reader versions with the same PDF on Windows 7 and XP, then I would expect the outcome to be the same.
Is this a local or online PDF?
If local, is the file really exactly the same?
If online, in what browser?

How to create a PDF document with page curls using Adobe CS 4?

My goal is to create a PDF document with page curls. I am using Adobe CS 4.
1.      The document was created in Adobe InDesign CS 4 where the page turn (curl) transition was applied.
2.      Then the document was exported to .swf.
3.     The .swf file was imported into   Adobe Acrobat Pro to create a PDF file with flip page or page curl transitions.
These are the problems.
1.      The background is not transparent.
2.      Page dimensions have to be increased at least an inch in width and length so that the full page can show
3.      The command and+   will not only increases the document's screen size. It increases the page margins.

PDF was never designed to support the Flash page curl effect (it didn't exist back then). Anything you try (and you've tried the standard hack) will look like a hack. Personally, I don't think the effort is worth it for an effect that's much overused.

How to Create a PDF Document and apply Digital Signature in C# using the Adobe SDK?

Hi Everybody!
I have to do two distinct tasks here:
1) How can I create a PDF document using the Adobe SDK in my .NET Applications(C# - 2.0)?
I just need a basic sample to create a document with a simple text, for example. I did not find any useful information in the adobe documentation. I have the Acrobat Professional 8.0 in my computer, but it's very dificult to work whith de Acrobat.dll and .NET with a poor documentaion.
2)How can I apply digital signature in a existent pdf document?
I need to sign documents using the SDK, just a basic sample in c# would be helpful to start!
Anybody could help?
Thank in advance!

Leonard Rosenthol or anybody that can help, sorry to insist.
I will explain better my problem:
I have an ASP.NET WebPAge (C# - 2.0). In this page, the user make a request. The request should generate a PDF document with the informations of the request and with a field to add a digital signature. The document created will be send to a approver that will confirm the approval applying his digital signature (I need to do too, a webpage where the approver open the page, choose the pdf document, and sign, just selecting his own certificate and clicking in the button SIGN... but this is another problem).
That's the reason that I have to create a PDF document. If I create a WORD or HTML document, and then convert to PDF, how can I add a field to digital signature in this pdf document?
Is there any solution using Acrobat SDK?
Thank you very much!

How to create a pdf document with specific security settings

Hallo,
in Adobe Acrobat you can set security settings which make documents unprintable, unchangeable etc.
What I want to do is: I want to set these security settings by creating the pdf-document, because I do not want to open every document and change the security settings. Is this possible at all???
Thank you for help
Elisabeth

How are you creating the documents? If using Adobe PDF printer, use the security options in Adobe PDF printer settings. If using PDFMakers (Acrobat buttons inside Office applications, open the Preferences menu item and set security there)

Creating a PDF document with visible bookmarks

Hi.
I'm using VB to create a PDF document with bookmarks. I have no problem with this part.
What I want to do, though, is to program the document so that the bookmarks pane is visible when I open the document.
Any ideas?
All Best,
Ethan

I found the answer in the Interapplication Communication API Reference:
Dim SetPageMode as Boolean = PDDoc.SetPageMode(nPageMode),
where nPageMode has the possible values:
0: leave the view mode as is
1: display without bookmarks or thumbnails
2: display using thumbnails
3: display using bookmarks

I am trying to create a PDF document that calculates Gains and Losses in Mutual Funds. The calculation scripts are repetitive from line to line. The scripts work well until I reach the line 32. Although I am using the same script as the fields above in the columm, the script eventually stops calculating and I can't figure out why. Is there a limit of how many calculation scripts you can enter? I will attempt to attach my pdf as soon as I figure out how. Thanks.

For e31 :
var e30 = +getField("e30").value ;
var c31 = +getField("c31").value ;
if ( (e30 !== 0) && (c31 !== 0) ) event.value = e30 + c31 ;
else event.value = "";
for e32 :
var e31 = +getField("e31").value ;
var c32 = +getField("c32").value ;
if ( (e31 !== 0) && (c32 !== 0) ) event.value = e31 + c32 ;
else event.value = "";
for e33 :

var c33 = +getField("c33").value ;
if ( (e32 !== 0) && (c33 !== 0) ) event.value = e32 + c33 ;
else event.value = "";
Java console doesn't show any error... That's why I am wondering if it's not a limitation issue... or memory issue, because they are maybe too many rows or something....
The c value is not calculated.

How do you create a PDF document from excel???

How do you create a PDF document from excel???

Hi Kwasi Debra,
You might need to sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/" using your Adobe ID credentials.
Then, select 'Create PDF' tab and click on 'Select PDF files to export' option.
Upload your excel file and it will get converted to PDF format within a couple of minutes.
Later, you can even download the converted file onto your system.
Please try in the same manner and check.

Can I create a PDF document that can be commented on by others using READER

I have dozens (hundreds?) of PDF Books that I've purchased. Whoever created them made them so anyone using Adobe Reader 5 or better can make highlights and comments on the text. I use the feature to correct typos and send them back to the publisher. I know it can be done because I've been doing it for a few years before I ever got Adobe Standard.
So . . . My question is . . . How can I create documents like this that can be commented on using Adobe Reader? I have Adobe Standard 8 and I don't see this as a separate feature of Adobe Pro. and I'm hoping that I'm just missing the instructions on how it's done. I do not have any problem doing what I want using Adobe Standard 8 but I need to be able to make it doable in Reader so others can make comments in my documents.
Thanks for taking the time . . .

"Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader" or "Extend Features in Adobe Reader"
are available with Acrobat 8 Professional / 3D version 8 or Acrobat Professional / Pro Extended respectively.
Additionally, Adobe provides a server based service (LiveCycle ES) that "enables/extends" a PDF such that Adobe Reader can be used for Comment, Review, Digital Signature, etc.
That you can use Adobe Reader to comment on PDFs means one of the above applications were used.
Because you have mentioned the PDFs are purchased PDF Books I suspect that LiveCycle ES was used.
This server based application (which has a myriad of "modules" available) is expensive so, typically, it is licensed by enterprises that need its functionality. Examples: the large publishing houses or governmental agencies (e.g., IRS).
If you move up to Acrobat Professional you will be able to "Extend Features in Adobe Reader" such that others can perform Comment & Review on your PDF documents.
As Acrobat 9.x is the current, marketed release the Professional version would be available to you via an upgrade (not to be confused with the free "updates").
Be well...

How to create a PDF document

I have a document from which I want to create a pdf file. I have created a pdf two different ways: 1) Using the printer app, and 2) Using the app that I used to create the document in the first place and choosing Save As a pdf. In both cases the original document was 975 KB and the pdf was 2.2 MB! A friend of mine took the same document and created a pdf which was only 1 MB! He used a Windows machine. In addition the pdf I created using both methods killed the embedded url's.
I have figured it out, sort of. First I do not want to pay $35 for an app for my Mac that allows me to convert to pdf. If I ever need to create a smaller pdf for screen viewing and/or one which retains the active links then I will use my PC.
I used Powerpoint (Office 2010) on the PC to create a pdf which was good for web viewing and screen viewing.
So the basic problem is with the Mac - both with the basic software which blows up the file size when converting to pdf and kills the links, and with the Office for Mac which uses the basic Mac software. I will not pursue this problem with Apple or Microsoft (Office 2011) unless Apple plans a workaround
One thing Office for the Mac gives you is the capability to Reduce File Size when saving the pptx doc; however, when then creating a pdf o te Mac I get the same expansion/kill url behavior.
So now I have a strategy which will work fine for me. Use the PC at selected pdf creation times.
I think that Mac OS X should provide the ability to create proper pdf's and not those limited ones I have discussed above and not force one to use the PC!

The Apple doc was very helpful. Using the Quartz filter when saving from Preview eliminated the bloat. The reducing file size worked.
As far as the links: all single line full url's were retained. If you had a multiple line url or a substitution of a word for a url that did not work. With that in mind, most documents that I will create would work fine as pdf's. To be sure of success I will follow this proceedure: 1) Don't substitute words for url's, 2) Make sure that url's are on one line of the document, 3) use the quartz filter out of Save As in Preview when creating the pdf, and 4) Go to the PC if the prior steps are not feasible.
I still think that Apple should make the process easier!
Thanks for your help.

How do I create a PDF document with a URL so that I can link it to my webpage?

I am in the middle of creating a business website. Some of the words on a page I've highligted and set them as a link to other information. I've typed up a Word doc and saved it as a PDF and on my webpage I have: Click here to see a sample report. I want to create a link so that when someone clicks on it the PDF document will open up. How do I do that?

Hi,
This is not the right forum for this, please ask it in Acrobat forum.
