Creating a .pdf in photoshop cs4 different than earlier versions

Hi. In PS CS4.
I am trying to make a .pdf to send to a printer. I do not know if the printer as CS4. Eventually I will ask, but..
I made a pdf in Photoshop, basically using the High Quality print settings.
Normally, when I open a pdf in Photoshop that was made in Photoshop I am able to see the layers, adjustment layers..etc..
I tried opening this .pdf in Photoshop 7.0 & it had asked me to rasterize it with that dialog screen, although I did have Preserve Photoshop Editing Capabilities checked. I am not sure why it did that.
What do you do for people that have earlier versions?
Thank you.

not much you can do about it, the Preserve Photoshop Editing Capabilities only works when opening it in Photoshop CS2 or newer

  • How to edit a PDF in Photoshop CS4

    Hi there,
    I'm having some real trouble trying to figure out how to edit a PDF in photoshop cs4. So i need to edit/change text, move things around, that type of thing.
    I work in Windows.
    Could someone give me a bit a low down on how this is done?
    Much appreciated,
    Victoria

    You can open them but you will totally rasterize everything.
    PDFs are not intended to be edited. They are a final format but as
    mentioned you can use Acrobat for some minor text edits or use it to
    extract the images to Photoshop for further editing.

  • Is it possible to save a pdf to a format of an earlier version of Acrobat than the one I have (i.e. Adobe 5.0 when I am running 6.0)?

    Is it possible to save a pdf to a format of an earlier version of Acrobat than the one I have (i.e. Adobe 5.0 when I am running 6.0)?

    How would I do it?  I am running Adobe Acrobat XI (version 11.0.5). I am using an external software that allows me to upload pdf files, but it asks  "Please regenerate the PDF using Acrobat 5.0 or lower"

    Hello,
    Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-and-diagnose-firefox-problems?esab=a&s=troubleshooting&r=3&as=s#w_5-reinstall-firefox here].
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Firefox's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Firefox data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • Creating .swf's in Photoshop CS4?

    I have PS CS4, I found a tutorial for PS CS2 (Creative COW) that said you could export animations created in Photoshop as .swf's using Imageready through Photoshop. But I can't seem to find a similar tutorial, or anything, to export Flash files from Photoshop CS4?! Is it possible. I would really like to create my animated buttons for my Nav Bar with PS.
    I guess I could fumble around in Flash, but I Iike the animation window in PS CS4, it's very similar to AfterEffects, which I love to use. Flash seems so clunky and you have to type in code and all that. Anyone have any tips?
    Thanks all,
    Aza

    No, to my knowledge PS does not spit out any form of Flash animation. If it would, it would be just rasterized image sequences such as you can create from within After Effects when you directly export an SWF. Still, speaking of that, since you have AE, why not do the animation there, combined with flash? Check out the requirements and workflow for exporting XFL files from AE, and you're already much closer...

  • Incorrectly coloured text when saving to .PDF using Photoshop CS4

    I am using Photoshop CS4 on Windows 7, and have designed my own business card.
    When saving to .PDF to send to printers I am finding that a small section of text is saving with a white section to it, for example out of the 3 lines of text on the card the bottom left hand corner of the & sign I have in the design is coming out white, the rest of the text is a golden colour.
    I have tried searching on this forum and on google but can't seem to find anyone with my actual problem so unsure where to go.
    Any help much appreciated.
    Thanks

    Well, you could change the native text color instead of using layer styles, could you not?

    Or make the Type and Hyphen layers into a single Smart Object and clip a yellow layer to it.

  • Can I migrate tags and keywords created in Elements, to Photoshop CS4?

    I have used Elements 11 for cataloguing a lot of photos but I want to use Photoshop CS4 for other purposes. The tags and keywords I created in Elements disappear in PS. How can I migrate them? Does CS4 have a similar cataloguing ability?

    When you add keywords to images in Photoshop Elements Orgainzer, they are added to the catalog not to the file directly. You can save the keywords to the file directly by using File  > Save Metadata to Files.
    If you use the Edit with Photoshop feature of the Organizer, the file does get sent to Photoshop with metadata attached (without having to use the above steps). But in order to see this data you have to go to File > File Info in Photoshop.
    Beyond that, not all file formats support metadata or keywords, and not all application have a way of displaying or reading keywords.
    Photoshop doesn't have any cataloging abilities. The closest it has is the Bridge companion app. This does not catalog your files, but simply allows you to view the files on your hard drive (similar to Windows Explorer or Mac Finder) with more information displayed.

  • Version Set is not created when editing with Photoshop CS4?

    Last week I was working in PSE7 and opening files into PS CS4 for editing. I open the files by clicking the Open with link and choose Photoshop. I edited several dozen photos and when I closed them from PS CS4 Version Sets were created in PSE7 like they should be. At some point that stopped happening. Now when I do as before and open the files into PS CS4, edit them, and then close them the Version Set is not being created in PSE7. I look in the folder containing the files and the file has a new modified date but it still has the same file name instead of being saved with the - edited name as before. Does anyone know why the version sets are no longer being created when editing with PS CS4? I can edit the files with the PSE7 editor and the version sets are created as they should be. Thanks!

    Okay so tha there is no misunderstanding here is exactly what I'm doing. From the PSE7 Organizer I select a photo (file name Tetons & Jenny Lake 026.jpg) and click the Fix tab. I then click More Options and select Photoshop. The photo opens in into PS CS4. I make my edits click the x on the tab to close the image and I'm asked "Save changes to the Adobe Photoshop document "Tetons & Jenny Lake 026_edited-1.jpg" before closing?" I click Yes then click OK to save the image at maximum quality. I go back to the PSE 7 Organizer and there is no version set. I check the folder the original image was in and see the original file Tetons & Jenny Lake 026.jpg with a new modified date and time. I can even choose Save As from PS CS4 and it asks me if I want to overwrite Tetons & Jenny Lake 026_edited-1.jpg and I select Yes, but I get the exact same results. Thanks!

  • Help Creating Booklet PDF in InDesign CS4 on Mac OS X

    I need to print a 64-page document as a "booklet," and would like to create a pdf document so I can print it off of another computer in my office.  I have printed the booklet successfully from my computer, so I know that my settings for the booklet are correct, but I can't seem to figure out how to print the document the same way as a pdf.  It doesn't work to go to Print Booklet > Print Settings > Printer > PDF > Save as PDF, and when I try to print as a PostScript File it "works," but the final pdf only contains all of the EVEN pages, not any of the ODD pages.  Very strange.  The "Preview" even contains ALL of the pages and looks perfectly accurate before I save the PostScript File.
    What am I doing wrong?  It seems like the PostScript File option is what everyone is recommending in other forum posts on making booklet pdf's, but it's not working for me.

    Not being very familiar with the Mac OS this is a complete shot in the dark but have you made sure that the PPD when you print to a postcript file is set to using the Adobe PDF PPD?

  • Saving as PDF from Excel looks different to Excel version

    Hi
    I have been working in Excel and been saving PDF files for the past year using the inbuilt feature in Excel. I have recently installed Adobe Acrobat so that I could save PDFs directly from Excel instead. When I save exactly the same file from Excel, the adobe acrobat PDF looks different to the excel PDF version.
    I have uploaded an image to show you what I mean.
    http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=1z1ux6d&s=8
    The image on the left is the correct version, this version was saved using the "Save As PDF" option built into excel. The image on the right is the version saved with the Excel acrobat add-in. You can notice how the font is different on acrobat version, the part where it says "Date" and "Description. You will also notice the black lines above the little card icons do not go right to the end of the line like they should. Each of of them little card icons is a seperate image, does Acroboat have trouble converting these little images or something as they appear fine on the Excel version.
    Is there anything that can be done so converting it to PDF will look closer to how its suppose to look?

    I checked the properties of each file. The Excel PDF version has more fonts listed in the properties section compared to the PDF maker one. I can select the "Date" and "description" and copy and paste it as text but now it appears the text is fine, its showing correctly now even though I havent changed anything.
    The icon problem is still there though.
    I have also attached another image of a close up of the little card icons:
    http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=nqac9j&s=8
    The version on the right is correct, created within the built in PDF feature in Excel. The version on the left, created with the Excel pdf maker addin.

    This is a copy of ONEof the keys  in the registry I changed  as told by Apple support today.

  • Set Desktop Photo different than Iphoto version

    When I choose a photo to "set desktop," it appears differently than the one in Iphoto. It is overly saturated.
    I'm using a 22" external monitor when I see this, resolution set at 1680x1050, 60Hz, millions.
    The picture looks good in emails and Preview. I would like to see my "real" photo on the desktop!
    Any ideas?

    Thank you. I tried what you suggested and didn't make any difference. However, when I got my new imac, I didn't migrate the contents of my macbook across immediately and started downloading games, etc onto the imac. I later migrated the contents across and my imac made a new account- my name with the number 1 after it. So I now have two accounts on the imac. I have just logged back into the original account to find a game (the two user accounts are driving me crazy!) and the original picture on the desktop looks great! So it is only fuzzy on the second (main) account. AAAaaaah!

  • Yosemite Mail Sets IMAP Flags differently than earlier Mail Versions

    Since converting to Yosemite, our junk mail filtering system (a copy of Thunderbird running 24/7 on our Linux server) has not worked.   We get over 1,000 pieces of Spam per day and use this setup to screen the junk before reading on our iPhones.
    After hours of debugging I discovered that when Yosemite Mail initially downloads a message from the IMAP server (we use HostGator), Yosemite Mail sets the IMAP Flags on the server to be NonJunk    $NotJunk    NotJunk 
    Yosemite Mail does this before any message is viewed.
    This is very different than Mavericks and earlier versions of Mail.  In those earlier versions, no IMAP server Flags were set when a message was downloaded.  The same is for the current version of iOS on my iPhone; no IMAP server Flags are set.
    The problem is that the three versions a "Not Junk" flag set by Yosemite Mail are confusing Thunderbird and probably other Mail clients.
    Does anyone know a way to stop to Yosemite Mail from setting these flags?   I filled a bug report with Apple, but am not optimistic...

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:  
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu.* A folder may open, or you may get an error message that the item can't be found. Either result is normal. If the folder does open and has contents, move the contents to the Desktop. Relaunch Mail and test. If there's no change, put the contents of the folder back and quit Mail again.
    2. Repeat with this line:
    /Library/Mail/Bundles
    This time you may be prompted for your administrator login password when you remove the items. Make sure they're removed from the folder and not just copied to the Desktop. If necessary, copy them first and then move the originals to the Trash.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Creating a multipage pdf in photoshop CS4

    I've just upgraded from CS1 to CS4, and previously you could create a multipage PDF easily under the File>Automate menu. So how do you do that in CS4? The feature has been moved somewhere. I dont want two seperate A4's I want to learn how to create one document consisting of 2 pages.
    Thanks
    AC

    I most certainly would like to see the output to multi-page pdf feature re-included back into the file menu. For generic brochure type jobs, through to concept art presentations, and (Game) design documents, I really appreciated having that feature. It worked. Smooth.
    Bridge on the other hand, is shovelware. It lasts 3-4 seconds before locking up indefinately, and its a product of Adobe's ability to make fancy applications that dont really do anything useful, its NOT my workflow, and nor do I want it to be. I don't see the point in starting up another application, to do something that was always done well, from 2 maybe 3 clicks in the file menu.
    I really dont expect to swallow the cost of upgrades to find that I've had essential tools removed, and substituted for the joke that is "Bridge".
    Isn't this obvious? If its not broken don't fix it.
