Creating a PDF from Pagemaker

When I attempt to create a PDF file of a magazine from Pagemaker on my desktop computer running Windows XP, I get a message file error.
When I move the same file to my laptop and go throuth the same process, no problem.
I have checked both computers and made sure that the settings are all the same, in Pagemaker and Adobe Acrobat 8.0, but nothing solves this problem.
The problem occurs after Acrobat 8.0 comes up, so has to be an Acrobat, not a Pagemaker problem.

Please repost in the PageMaker forum. Almost no one else will be using
PageMaker.

Error message when generating PDF from PageMaker

Hello, Unfortunately my client is still using PageMaker, despite the fact that it is no longer supported. Usually, I have no problem, but this is the error I have had today:
%%[ Error: typecheck; OffendingCommand: get; ErrorInfo: CharOffsets fonts/TimesNewRomanPSMT%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
I'm on Vista, with Acrobat 8.1.3 and I'm printing to PDF from PageMaker 7. It seems to be a font problem, but I don't know how to solve it.
Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

Finally managed to get the first two of the 3 books (making up the full publication) printed by doing "Export". The third one, which has been causing all the trouble has started giving me the font message again:
%%[ Error: typecheck; OffendingCommand: get; ErrorInfo: CharOffsets fonts/TimesNewRomanPSMT%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
I had ensured that the PDF box said "warn and continue".
I also get a dialog box telling me that only even pages will be printed, although I have specified even/uneven in the print dialog, and that blank pages will not be printed, although I have checked the blank page box.
Have tried to "Print" to PS and I have managed to generate a PS file with only a message telling me that Helvetica Neue could not be incorporated, which is fine. However, if I then try to create a PDF, I get the message above. Does this mean that my problem is with Distiller rather than in the file?
I have never had this problem before, and am baffled.

Hyperlinks not converting when creating a pdf from Word 2010 to Adobe Acrobat 11.0.6

First off, let me say that these are not table of contents hyperlinks. I have created a document in Word 2010 (not a MAC) with hyperlinks to files residing on our company's intranet. In Word the hyperlinks work great but when I create the pdf, the links do not work. I have converted using both PDFMaker from Word and Create a pdf from within Acrobat. Yes, I have all the boxes checked regarding saving links. The links appear to work partially. Meaning that when I hover the cursor over the link, the pointy finger appears but when I click I get a pop-up message telling me the file could not be opened. Also, when I hover over the hyperlink, the address appears. So, I think it knows there's a link and it tries to open but can't. When I create the file within Adobe the link works - once. When I click on the link I get a pop-up window asking me if I want to save my file before closing. After my response the file closes and the linked file opens. However, when I go back into the file and try the hyperlink again, I get the pop-up telling me the file cannot be opened. HELP! I am at my wits end. After spending hours yesterday trying to research (I think I read every thread related to hyperlinks but I am not using a Mac, table of contents or Adobe 7 around which it seems all the prior questions revolve) and futily creating and recreating the pdf (as if doing the same thing repeatedly would somehow magically work) I am about to give up. This is a document that will be published to our intranet for use by employees which cross-references other documents to which they can refer for additional information. I would prefer to publish a pdf and not a Word document. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for your input Bill. I've checked the preferences and "view large images" is turned on. It's not all of the images which are missing, only certain ones do not transfer over to PDF.

I need to create a PDF from InDesign that people can edit in Reader or Acrobat

I need to create a PDF from InDesign that people can edit (for example, change a name from "John" to "Johnny") from either Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat. I have already looked at forms, but they do not keep your font colors, faces, and sizes and just make everything that is selected as a text form Black, 12pt, Times New Roman.
Can anyone here help me?

Vincent,
If you use Acrobat pro, generate your .pdf file and then save it as (french version):
... so that anyone using Acrobat Reader (or Pro, of course) can modify the .pdf file (with limitations), add comments, ...
If you want to try to "protect" your .pdf file, you can try with this (in the "Préférences" menu (french version)):

- Problem: I have 1400 e-mails with attachments that need to be converted into pdf and the attachments cannot be embeded.
System: PC Windows 7 using Acrobat X Prof. - Thank you!

Hi ,
There is an option of embedding index for faster search while converting email to a PDF .
However I am not sure that will serve your purpose or not .
I would recommend you to get in touch with Microsoft support as well .
Meanwhile I'll work on it and get back to you in case I get a desired solution .

How can I create one pdf from a FrameMaker Book with mixed page sizes.

Looking for an easier way to create one pdf from a FrameMaker book that has files with different pages sizes; letter and tabloid.
So far, I have not been able to find a way to set up the Adobe PDF printer or Distiller to read the page size from the source files in the book and then create one pdf with the appropriate page sizes based on the file sizes in the FrameMaker book. I can create a pdf of the book using a multi-step process where I create a pdf for each page size and then combine them into one file. This is a lot of work.
Is there a way to set the Adobe PDF printer where it reads page size from the source files and then creates one pdf with a mixed page sizes?
Using FrameMaker 7 and 10 and Acrobat X Pro.
Thanks for any suggestions

Exporting to PDF from PageMaker 7.0 in Classic

Since upgrading to 10.4 I have been unable to export to PDF from PageMaker 7.0.1. Adobe tech support says there is a problem with the Adobe Postscript driver. I have downloaded and installed a new Adobe PS driver but still get a message that says Adobe PS cannot be used because of an internal error. There is a code (-30581). Anybody having this problem?

Did Adobe say your copy might be corrupt, or there was a general incompatibility between AdobePS and your Classic version, or what please?
I don't happen to know a specific solutioni, but you might try this workaround, even though it sounds rather klunky until you're used to it:
Use Apple's own Desktop Printer Utility to built a virtual Desktop Printer using Translator Postscript, which will automatically be set as the default Classic printer, even though it doesn't actually appear on the Desktop, and should be accessible through either AdobePS or Apple's own LaserWriter driver.
Tell that to print to File, which should produce a .ps file that will double-click open in Preview, which can convert to PDF.

Create a pdf from an arabic wiki page

hello there!
I come across a nasty probleme whil trying to create a pdf from a wikipedia page:
I go to File--> Create PDF --> From web page, then I choose an arabic page (example adobe entry from wiki http://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D8%B4%D8%B1%D9%83%D8%A9_%D8%A3%D8%AF%D9%88%D8%A8%D9%8A )
the result is a missed up, ther's no arabic text, only latin text appears!
I have installed arabic/hebrew language support to windows from regional settings.
hebrew displays good but arabic not.
I use Acrobat 9 Pro version 9.1.0 on a Windows XP SP3 English.
from some searches on the net i found that i must buy the adobe CS4 Middel east version, and that will be bad to buy two versions of the same product just for one littel thing such as arabic/hebrew .
is there any solution other than this hard choise?
thank you.

As I said above, non of the adobe cs4 Master Collection supports fully arabic type.
I need to be able to write arabic in Photoshop, indesign, Illustrator, After Effects, Premiere..
I taught CS4 will come out with this option of arabic typing included, but I found that you must by another set of Adobe products arabic enables from the Winsoft company.
a temporary solution is to download the arabic trials found here; http://www.winsoft-international.com/en/downloads/trials/ and use them to make the things that you need in arabic, then delete them and keep using the English CS4.. this is helpful when you have only to work with one project with arabic type, but, this doesn't work, as the trials wil expire and you have to buy licenes again.

Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?

Why can I not create a PDF from a web page on my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro on my new Windows 8 computer? It worked fine on my windows XP system?

Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 8, for the simple reason it was
created much before it and Adobe could not participate the changes to the
OS that Microsoft implemented many years later on. You need to buy the
current version for compatibility.

Creating a pdf from a word doc and the image and footer will not show

I am trying to create a pdf from a word doc that has an image and footer. Neither will show in the pdf. Also getting this message "Adobe Acrobat Updater has not been able to check for updates recently. Check online to see if solutions are available from the Adobe website." My Cloud says it is updated.

What was the Original?
If it was from Word, chances are the top and bottom Margins were set too narrow. (should not be less than .5 inches even more safety 1" would be better). As for graphics. Check in Word preferences (may be called different in a windows machine) make sure in view and Print settings "Graphics" is checked (show Graphics and Print Graphics).

Any Tutorial / Sample to create Single PDF from multiple source files using PDF assembler in a watched folder process.

Any Tutorial / Sample to create Single PDF from multiple source files using PDF assembler in a watched folder process. I have a client application which will prepare number of source files and some meta data information (in .XML) which will be used in header/footer. Is it possible to put a run time generated DDX file in the watch folder and use it in Process. If possible how can I pass the file names in the DDX. Any sample Process will be very helpful.

If possible, make use of Assembler API in your client application instead of doing this using watched folder. Here are the Assembler samples : LiveCycle ES2.5 * Programming with LiveCycle ES2.5
Watched folder can accept zip files (sample : Configuring a watched folder to handle multiple input files and write results to a single folder | Adobe LiveCycle Blog ). You can also use execute script to create the DDX at runtime : LiveCycle ES2 * Application Development Using LiveCycle Workbench ES2

With the upgrade to Acrobat Pro 9.4.6 I can no longer create a pdf from a document.

I am using Window XP, Office 2007 Professional. When the upgrade occurred, I lost the functionallity of creating a pdf from Publisher. I go through the print, select Adobe PDF and then print. Sometimes it looks like it is creating a pdf and then on results. Othertimes it just blinks and returns to Publisher. Adobe wil not let me un-install the last update. Any suggestions?

Thank you for your response. I got an error message as follows:
%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: MSPUB_setclippath_7 ]%%
Stack:
[0.0 -1.0 1.0 0.0 -10200.0 6600.5]
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
Any ideas?

Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option doesn't works

OK, guys, this is the problem...
After YEARS of testing from Acrpbat 4 thru 9 on Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option... it doesn't works properly and doesn't got the entire site. ALWAYS get an error of memory or any other error but FINALLY you NEVER got the entire site. I'm talking for a big website... not like amazon.com, but a big one.
I make a walkarround to try to capture the website in parts but Acrobat is not "intelligent" to make a resume capture of the site, because ALWAYS start from the begining instead from the resume position of the site...
My question is, HOW can get the ENTIRE SITE in a PDF document... without getting errors or stopping the capture process...
Don't have problem of low RAM memory because I'm in a MONSTER MACINTOSH.... 3.2 GHZ with 8 Core and 32 GB of RAM under Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.6 in Acrobat 9 Pro.
If I'm not wrong, the GET ENTIRE SITE option in Web Capture (Create a PDF from webpage using entire site option) doesn't works from Acrobat 4 thru 9 in Pro version... tested, you'll never got the entire site... I'm talking in capture a huge entire site and not a little one...
Can someone help me?
Thanks.

Ok so I go to a web page and select something to print. Once I've clicked print I switch over from printer/micosoft xps docu writer/fax and select Adobe PDF. All goes through with a 'Create Adobe PDF' coming up progressing through to eventually save and store. Once I open the file it end up as the picture above. I have the same version on another computer and that works fine but this particular Sony laptop it doesn't seem to work properly.
