Creating PDF from HTML without background

Hi,
I want to create a PDF from a html-page. I tried several ways without success to get a PDF without a background (white). I need a transparent background to add different backgrounds for different pages in Acrobat X Pro. I use an iMac with OSX 10.10.2, Safari 8.0.4 and have the MasterCollection 6 installed. I tried:
- print page -> create PDF Result: white background which hides added background
- print page -> save as Adobe-PDF Result: white background which hides added background
- in Acrobat: create PDF from web Result: white background which hides added background
In all cases it doesn't matter if I select "print background" or not. And it doesn't change if I add in the CSS for the web a body {background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0)} or body {background-color:transparent}.
How can I create a PDF with no or transparent background?

Hi Manoj
If your application generate a static html page, you can open those html files with Reports 9i and add a dynamic data sections which would be fetch the data in your html pages with Report servcies. However you can only run those modified pages as a jsp and show the output to browser window.
Thanks

Create pdf from html, how to adjust page size

I have a large html file that I need to convert to a pdf. I am able to open the html in acrobat and save as pdf, but I cannot find where to adjust the page size. When I save the html in acrobat, the saved file is still a single page, but when I open the page in reader, then there are page breaks.
How do I adjust the page size and create a single page document?
There is also a header and footer line that I don't want. How do I get rid of those?
LHH

When you open the window for create PDF from web, select the settings. You can adjust the size and header/footer there.

While creating pdf from html, the alignment is not proper

Hi,
In my application, I am creating a pdf report from html using (using Generate pdf 1.1 - HTML URL To PDF activity) which contains certain images and descriptions.
But, while generating pdf the alignment is not proper. In the HTML there is no paging, but in the output pdf the image div is getting broken when new pages are generated.
Some blank areas are coming the report.
Actually I need an exact replica of the HTML as a pdf, with paging.
Thank you in advance.

What is the LiveCycle version?
Is it possible for you to share an example(somewhere on public file sharing sites)?

How do I create PDF from word without bookmarks?

We have several forms that we create to PDF using "Combine" - "Merge Files Into A Single PDF" using Acrobat 9.0. Sub-bookmarks are created for each of these forms off of the headers in word. Is there a way (some setting) I can create the PDF withOUT getting the sub-bookmarks? We create several for each meeting and have 196 meetings a year. I realize I can highlight them all and delete them for each main bookmark, but would like to not have to do that as we have several main bookmarks.

It would be best to give a link to an HP document you are having problems with. Someone could try to duplicate the problem.
What program are you using to print the document?
Try a different program for printing. Preview or Acrobat reader
Are you saying other pdf documents print fine?
Here are some ideas…
I'd look first at your page setup options.
file > page setup...
Secondly, when you get the print window, look around at the various print options.

Table Header not Recurring - when Generate PDF from HTML with tables

Hello, It is not working as expected...and I'm not sure if the functionality is supported. Want to create PDF from html document. The html document contains a html table that typically contains a large number of rows. To make reading easier the html table used thead and tbody elements, and their children, so that when the table extends across pages when printed the header element recurs on each page. However, the header element is not recurring in the generated PDF document (it only occurs in the first row of the table). Just wondering if you have tried or used this functionality (created PDF from html with table with headers and the PDF included the table with recurring table header. And if so, did you do anything special to make it work. Thanks for any insight.

If there's a problem with that package, I suggest you speak to the developer of that package and ask them to investigate. It's not an Oracle supplied package so you are wrong to look for help here.

Create accessible pdf from html page

Hello,
I am trying to create a 508 compliant Pdf from a simple HTML page using the HTML to Pdf feature in Livecycle ES4 server. I was able to configure the service to generate tabbed Pdf, but the created Pdf has multiple accessibility issues.
Some of the issues encountered are: incorrect tab order, some links are not tabbable while others are, link text is being read “Blank”, some text is skipped while tabbing, missing alt text for images, page being rendered in the responsive(mobile) view, etc.
I have tried both the available approaches, of 1) providing a URL to create the PDF, and 2) to send the html document as a zipped file, with same results.
Attached is a sample PDF generated from a simple HTML page I created for demo.
My questions are:
Is it possible to generate 508 compliant (accessible) Pdf documents using Html to Pdf service from Pdf Generator? If yes, which settings might I be missing?
Is there any other service provided by Adobe Livecycle Server that can generate 508 compliant Pdf documents from a 508 compliant HTML page?
Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Anup

I don't think it's possible to do this using a standard JavaScript script in Acrobat, since the newDoc function doesn't work with URLs.
The only option I can think of is to use an external automator that will call the Create PDF From Web Page dialog, paste the address from a file, and after the PDF file is created will continue to the next line.
I might be able to create such a tool for you. If you're interested, contact me by email (click my username for the address) or PM.

Problem with creating pdf from Microsoft Publisher 2013

We are having problems in creating pdfs from Microsoft Publisher2010- When the function 'Adobe PDF' is selected and 'Print' is clicked on nothing happens. The progress bar just sits there for several minutes without creating a pdf. We have to click on cancel and when this is done this crashes Microsft Publisher.
I have repaired this using the repair facility in Acrobat 9. I have also uninstalled Acrobat 9 and reinstalled this.
I have also uninstalled Adobe Reader XI and reinstalled Adobe Reader 9.
Before uninstalling Acrobat I also ran the updates but this didnt help either.
This is on a Windows 7 PC (64-bit)
Adobe Acroabt 9 Pro Extended
Microsoft Publisher 2010.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

MS Publisher 2010 is not supported by the Acrobat 9 Family; and the PDFMaker extension for Publisher has been removed completely from the Acrobat XI Family, so upgrading won't help either. Sorry!

File, create PDF, from web page, entire site...questions

I am new to adobe, is this the proper forum for Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro for macintosh? I think yes...
Created a PDF from: File, create PDF, from web page, entire site.
Is there a way to print this without the background color? If you printed from a browser, you could choose not to print the back ground color. I know exactly the color.
Is there a way to make this PDF look like the web, with no page breakes? I have tried various things, but the page breaks are always displayed.
Is there a way to create bookmarks on somthing other than the title tag in the web site? The title tag is an SEO 1 sentence summary of the page, which makes for very long book mark names.
Thanks for your help.

I don't use v9, but what I would do is click the FILE--PRINT option, print to PDF, and enter to print one page (default is first page)

Creating PDF from Office files in Acrobat X for Mac

Dear All - I just installed the Mac version of Acrobat X (with the newest dot release upgrade). I was surprised to find (on my installation anyway) that the only way to create a PDF from an Office document is from within Mac Office, using the print command to create an Adobe PDF.
There is no way to use Create PDF from the initial screen or the menu bar of Mac Acrobat X to convert an existing .doc, .docx, .xls, .ppt, etc. file - the dropdown list of supported formats doesn't include any of the Office formats. Nor does dragging an Office file's icon onto Acrobat's icon work.
I know from the video tutorials on adobe.com that the Windows version of the Acrobat X product does support direct conversion of Office files without having to open them first in Office. Is there something screwy with my particular installation, or is the exclusion of Office conversion in the Acrobat application (as opposed to through Office) a "feature" of the Mac version for some reason?
Many thanks.
Bob

That's a good question, but I don't have a definitive answer. I know that Adobe has claimed to be working on providing PDFMaker capabilities (at least partially) for the Mac, but we haven't seen anything yet. PDFMaker was dropped as of version 9, but even before then, it was considerably less capable than the Windows version.
I believe there are techincal limitations on the Mac that prevent them from integrating it with Microsoft Office products. I know that on WIndows, Office needs to be installed for PDFMaker to work, so Acrobat (PDFMaker) relies in part on MS Office functionality. If the same APIs aren't available on the Mac, there's not a lot they can do apart from implementing a conversion process that does not rely on MS Office, which sounds to me like a considerable undertaking.

How to include non web pages to the "Create PDF from Web Page" feature?

In Acrobat Pro (v. 10), when I use the "Create PDF from Web Page" feature, it works great for html pages, but it skips non-html links (doc, pdf, ppt, xls, etc). I need Acrobat Pro to convert those files and put them in the order as well. I don't see an option for this in settings. Is there ANY way I can do this? This is for an archiving purpose and I have 10,000 plus files to convert. Please help.

This is a question i'm trying to answer too. My issue is that I have a PDF file which itself contains links to both DOC and PDF files. The end result is that I need one consolidated PDF containing all the linked files (in order).
I can run the "create from web page" on this PDF file, and it'll download them, but not convert them. It just adds them as "jumbled" text to the end of the document. I need it to download, convert, and then append them.
So, as isunshine3 asked above, any way to have Adobe convert the files that it finds linked when running the "create from web page"?
THanks
Matt

Adobe Acrobat XI Standard crashes when we create pdf from scanner

We are using adobe acrobat XI standard, version 11.0.06
WIndows 7 Pro 64 bit
scanner: Xerox documate 4799
Acrobat crashes when we create pdf from scanner

Spent quite a while on this one.. My problem was related to twain drivers which reside in c:\windows\twain_32. I'm running windows 7 64-bit. First it's usually possible to scan in windows 7 maybe vista and from adobe without even using twain (using WIA). So try renaming the twain_32 folder to _twain_32 and see what happens... If that stops the crashing look at the contents of the twain folder. I had a Dell folder for some printer I wasn't even using. That was causing the crash. I removed the dell folder and renamed the twain folder back to twain_32. Now everything works as designed.

Acrobat Pro 9.1 no longer creates PDFs from Word 2007

I upgraded from Acrobat 7 to 9 specifically to gain more control over settings when making PDFs from Word 2007. This worked as I had hoped until the 9.1 vulnerability upgrade was installed. Now it will no longer create PDFs from Word 2007 documents at all.
From within Word 2007, when I click on "Create PDF" (whether in the Office menu or Acrobat toolbar) it asks for a file name, but after I click "Save" does nothing. This is true even for the simplest possible document, using the "Default" settings for PDF "Preferences."
If I right click the file name of the document in Windows Explorer, with Word 2007 closed, and click on "Convert to Adobe PDF" in the menu, it starts and the staus box comes up, but after a few seconds quits and displays "An unexpected error occurred. PDFMaker was unable produce the Adobe PDF."
I can still "Save As" PDF in Word 2007, but this gives me little control over the format.
Is there any way that I can get Acobat 9.1 to do what I bought it for, and what Adobe advertises it will do?

Try printing to the Adobe PDF printer, the more fundamental process (PDF Maker is a preprocessor for the printer). If that does not work, then try with print-to-file selected. Open the file in Distiller and see if the PDF is created. If the latter happens, then check for AcroTray running in the background. It is required to automate the process and is needed by PDF Maker.

Acrobat 8.1 Crashing when creating PDF from webpage

www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/910569/000091056909000016/form6-k15june09.htm
I have been trying to create a PDF from the above URL using Acrobat 8.1 using the "Create PDF from Web Page" function. The Download Status form opens and shows the progress as files are downloaded and converted. However Acrobat 8.1 always crashes before completing the task. Acrobat 5.0 successfully completes the task although the formatting leaves a lot to be desired but that's another issue.
I've tried various values for settings such as processing 1 level or getting entire site but the crash is consistent.
I have also tried a couple of other machines in the office with the same crashed result.
Can anybody suggest why Acrobat 8.1 would fail to render this URL into a PDF and what would cause it to crash so consistently? Is there an alternate method of creating a PDF from this URL aside from loading it into Word and printing to a PDF?
Any clues appreciated!

The problem is likely that the web page does not conform to standard HTML. AA8 crashed on me also. You can print the file from your browser. The only thing that would be missing would be the 3 links near the bottom and they are easy to add.
