How do I create a PDF using Acrobat 7.0 in Windows 8 from a Visio drawing on a 64-bit system

I used to be able to create a PDF using Acrobat 7.0 from a Visio drawing in XP. Now I'm running a 64-bit system, no Adobe printer can be installed, and it is unsupported. Help?

On a 32-bit system, there is a workaround. I do not think it is possible to get AA7 to work on a 64-bit system (no one has reported success and only 1 has suggested success with AA8). You may be able to print to a PS file and then open that in Distiller. I suspect that is the only way and you will have to find a decent PS printer driver to do it. I suspect the printer driver (and associated AcroTray) will not work in a 64-bit Win8 -- Acrobat and Distiller may.

Rendering the PDF page to Bitmap object using Acrobat SDK DrawEx() or CopyToClipboard()

I am trying to find whether each page in PDF document is color or monochrome.
For doing this I am rendering the PDF page to Bitmap object using Acrobat SDK DrawEx() or CopyToClipboard()
Once after rendering the PDF page, I am using GetPixel() to read each pixel value to decide about color or Monochrome.
Problem:
When I read the pixel to decide about the page color or monochorme, in some XP machines it is showing the PDF page as color and in some PC it is showing it as Monochrome. Color quality in both the system is kept as 32 Bit.
After this I tried copying the PDF page directly into clipboard and then take the clipboard image to decide about color and monochorme, but even this also behaves in the similar way.
Question:
Why rendering the PDF page to Bitmap object using DrawEx() or CopyToClipboard() is behaving differently in each machines.
If required I will send my sample project.
With regards,
Rajeshrv.

In SDK documentation, there is no methods are defined for getting the color of the page. In color spaces and color values, we can set the color for drawing operations. A method AVPageViewSetColor is used for setting the color.
But there is no methods defined for getting the color in the page. Please let me know , is there any alternative way.
Thanks in advance.

Creating Certificate using Acrobat dll in C# program

Hello,
I need to create a certificate, basically .pfx file in C#. I used makecert tool to create the certificate first and then export it into .pfx file through command line. My attempt was successful. Then I used the .pfx file to encrypt a pdf using iTextSharp. The pdf is encrypted successfuly but when i try to open the pdf, Acrobat/Reader shows a message "You do not have access rights to this encrypted document". I intalled the .pfx file but the problem still remains.
Can anyone please guide me what am I doing wrong. I used the following code from command prompt to create a certificate and then export the certificate to a pxf file
Create certificate - makecert -r -pe -n "CN=My CA" -ss CA -sr CurrentUser -a sha1 -sky signature -sv MyCA.pvk MyCA.cer
Export to pfx - pvk2pfx -pvk MyCA.pvk -spc MyCA.cer -pfx MySPC.pfx -po <password>
Is it possible to create a pfx file using acrobat dll in C#??
Please help me, its urgent.
Thanks in advance!

No, there are no APIs for working with certificates from C#.

How to enable forms extenstion for adobe reader using Acrobat SDK?

Adobe acrobat GUI tool enables PDF forms designers to extend the use of Adobe Reader and allow the end user to save the PDF form locally using the Reader.
Is it possible to do the same kind of fuctionality at run time on the server using Acrobat SDK?.
We are creating several PDF Form on the server, is there any way we can use Acrobat SDK to enable form's extenstions programatically on the server after the PDF is created.
If Yes How? any code example?

Not using the Acrobat SDK, no.
However, Adobe sells the LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server that can be
used on a server for exactly this purpose.

Can't convert files to pdf using Acrobat 8 Standard or 9 Pro

I am having a major problem. I have tried converting both Word 2003 and Excel 2003 documents to pdf using Acrobat 8 Standard (I can't recall which version because I uninstalled and installed a trial version of Acrobat 9 Pro) and Acrobat 9 Pro. I have tried to convert directly from the open document and through Acrobat using create from file. In every instance the process starts and then stops after a few moments. When I try the conversion from within Acrobat, I get the following error message: " Pdf conversion failed, please correct the error and retry." When I try the conversion directly from Word or Excel, the conversion starts, stiops suddenly and gives no error message. I have had Acrobat 8 Standard installed for a couple of years. It worked fine on this computer until the problem started a week ago or so. There have been no software or hardware changes that woudl trigger suspicion.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the 8 Standard version. I have uninstalled the 8 Standard version and installed the 9 Pro trial version. I have run the repair module on both versions. I'm sure it is something simple but I just can't figure out what the "error" is that I need to "correct". Any suggestions?
As an aside, I have several Adobe programs (Photoshop CS5, Contribute 3 and Acrobat), all of them expensive. Their business model of offering no unpaid support (even for this type of problem) is one reason I hate Adobe more than Microsoft... but I rant.

When you uninstalled, you should have used the MS Installer Cleanup utility. It cleans up a lot of the junk left over in the registry. You should have also deleted the Acrobat folder. Then you would reinstall. You did not indicate your OS and it may be that you need to update the AA8 to get it to work correctly. Also, the installs and uninstalls can mess up your registration process if you are not careful. If you uninstall the AA9 trial, you will not be able to reinstall it for use. At this point, I can only suggest you do a repair of your installation and be sure you have all of the updates.

Reducing size of a PDF using Acrobat 9 Pro

Hello, I want to reduce the file size of a large number of pdfs which will be available for download on a website I'm building. These pdfs were created a few years ago and in most cases the fonts were converted to outlines. I want to reduce the size of the pdfs using Acrobat 9 Pro. I tried one and the size went from 2.3 Mb down to 156 Kb when I saved as an Acrobat 7. Will these be able to be viewed by anyone using Acrobat Reader. The end users will only be viewing and reading the pdfs. Thanks in advance for any responses.

If you are familar with the PDF Optimizer and how to go to it, open PDF Optimizer.
First images for a website should never be more than 150dpi.
Go to images and set, for DPI 150 for color images Grayscale and Monochrome.
Next open fonts in optimizer and look for duplicate fonts.
example:
Ariel
Ariel Bold
Ariel Bold
Ariel Italic
Courier New Bold
remove the duplicate Ariel Bold.
Many times there are 5-10 instances or more of the same Font/Font style.
Remove all duplicates.
Save as a new file you never want to save over your original in case what you end up with doesn't turn out.
