[CS4] Porting plugin from Indesign CS3 to CS4 c++ linking error

I am hoping to upgrade our current plugin to the latest version of Indesign CS4.
I've downloaded and unpacked the new Indesign CS4 SDK and have read the porting guide. I've not seen anything obvious relating to this issue.
This is using Visual Studios 2005 SP1 with InDesignCS4ProductsSDK_Build578.
It appears that through the headers that I don't end up with any compile issues. However in linking my current project is unable to find just a couple of external symbols.
ItemSelection.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "public: void __thiscall K2Internals::K2VectorBase<class IDType<struct PMIID_tag>,class K2Allocator<class IDType<struct PMIID_tag> > >::fill_insert(class IDType<struct PMIID_tag> *,unsigned int,class IDType<struct PMIID_tag> const &)" (?fill_insert@?$K2VectorBase@V?$IDType@UPMIID_tag@@@@V?$K2Allocator@V?$IDType@UPMIID_tag@ @@@@@@K2Internals@@QAEXPAV?$IDType@UPMIID_tag@@@@IABV3@@Z) referenced in function "public: virtual class K2Vector<class IDType<struct PMIID_tag>,class K2Allocator<class IDType<struct PMIID_tag> > > * __thiscall SelectionSuiteCSB::CreateObserverProtocolCollection(void)" (?CreateObserverProtocolCollection@SelectionSuiteCSB@@UAEPAV?$K2Vector@V?$IDType@UPMIID_t ag@@@@V?$K2Allocator@V?$IDType@UPMIID_tag@@@@@@@@XZ)

Does anyone have any ideas of where I should look next?

Ian, Thanks. That did solve the K2Vector problems.
Are you aware of which .tpp covers the PMMatrix class? That would probably make this linking error:
Convert.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: class PMReal __thiscall PMMatrix::operator[](int)const " (__imp_??APMMatrix@@QBE?AVPMReal@@H@Z) referenced in function "class Ipg3::Matrix __cdecl ConvertMatrix(class PMMatrix const &)" (?ConvertMatrix@@YA?AVMatrix@Ipg3@@ABVPMMatrix@@@Z)

Porting an InDesign Plugin from InDesign CC to InDesign CC 2014 the plugin complies successfully with the InDesign CC 2014 SDK but at run time presents this error and is disabled. Does anyone know what might be the issue?

Show this alert again?

As already told this means that the plugin has not been ported correctly. Some part of it for ex InDesign libraries or frameworks are being referenced from the CC sdk instead of the CC2014 sdk. To troubleshoot it i would advise you to rename the folder containing the CC sdk on your machine and then compile the project, it will fail to compile and you will get to know straightaway what aspects of the ported project are still accessing the old sdk. Fix the errors and your plugin will load fine.

How can I restore proper PDF exports from InDesign CS3 or CS5 in Snow Leopard?

I had no problems exporting PDFs from InDesign CS3 (on a Mac Pro running 10.6.4 Snow Leopard) until this past weekend, when all the fonts appeared bitmapped or thin and raggedy, and the images lost some color depth and contrast. When I copied the InDesign document to my MacBook Pro laptop, also running 10.6.4, the PDF emerged with its original quality. Calls to Adobe support referred me to documents concerning incompatibilities between InDesign and Snow Leopard. One of these documents was several pages long, but I could not print it from the Adobe website to my HP All-In-One Officejet, because one-third of the document was hidden under a white panel. This makes the document impractical for troubleshooting, because I don't have enough screen real estate (even on a 23-inch display) to keep the document open along with all the pages and dialogue boxes needed for reference. Back to phone and chat support, I was advised to upgrade my Creative Suite Premium CS3 to CS5 ($800!!!) and purchase the latest Acrobat Pro upgrade ($200), with no guarantee that this $1,000 cost would actually solve the problem. I did download the trial version of InDesign CS5, and it did NOT solve the problem. I'm also concerned that the problem did not exist until last weekend. Prior to that, my CS3 and Snow Leopard combination worked just fine. I then checked the forums and was dismayed at the variety of problems associated with PDF files, for which there seems to be no general fix. Meanwhile, I have hundreds of ads I'm supposed to be preparing and emailing as PDF proofs to businesses around the country. I have two books of 120 and 256 pages that need to be submitted to printers in PDF format with all kinds of fonts and image files belonging to my clients. The last time I submitted a book to a printer via email, the job went perfectly. This time, and next, it's obvious I won't be able to send PDFs at all! If that's the case, my 27-year-old directory business will be unable to absorb the expenses necessary to start all over with new computers and software, and I will be out of business. Period. So-- does anyone have a way to fix this? I would surely be grateful.

I'm on a local network, built on Apple's Airport Extreme. but I'm the only computer user on it. I use it for transferring files between the desktop computer (Apple Mac Pro) and laptop (Apple MacBook Pro) and, occasionally, to print from the laptop to a Xerox Phaser printer.
About a year ago, I added an Apple Airport Express to the network, allowing me to play iTunes music from the laptop through a Panasonic BluRay player connected to a home theatre sound system. No problems of this nature appeared with that installation.
About four months ago, we connected a DirecTV satellite receiver system to the D-Link router that carries wired network service from the desktop computer to the Xerox printer. The satellite TV system includes a series of modems that allows DVR recordings to be accessed and played from any of the TVs in the house. (As you would now perceive, I run my publishing business from my home). However, this set-up has been functioning for about four months, and I did not encounter the PDF problem until last weekend.
Now -- about the fonts.
Because of the many ads that I publish from various sponsors, it is possible that different versions of the same fonts have invaded my system. In the "missing font" alerts I get, InDesign frequently is seeking TT or T1 versions, which I replace with Adobe fonts when possible. Adobe Creative Suite Design Premium included a fairly large collection, which it keeps in one folder. The Apple OS also includes a bunch in a separate font management folder; and there are carry-over fonts that came with the business when I acquired it 10 years ago. Some of those fonts may go back 25 years to the book's inception. However, in the past several years, I have generally rebuilt all the ads that appear in my publications, substituting newer versions of fonts. Hence, the preflight program has been able to locate and include all the necessary fonts in the packages that go to the printers.
Once again, I have been able to export good PDF files for all the varieties of ads and books included in my system, until last weekend. One of the documents is built entirely with Helvetica Narrow, for which I have only one version.. Another document consists mainly of Times, and there are 3 or 4 versions of that font in the system; but the version contained in the document has not changed from when it exported properly.
So... I guess the complexities involved in the network and/or fonts could be part of the problem, as you suggest, but golly -- I hope not. The last thing I want to do is disrupt and rebuild the network or font collections. The font situation especially would set back production for months if not years, because so many individual ads and off-site clients would be involved in the process.
I'm sorry if I provided more details than you expected. I didn't mean to take so much of your time.
Thank you.

Is there any way to print directly from InDesign CS3 to Mavericks 10.9.4?

Are there any fixes or workarounds that allow me to print directly from InDesign CS3 to Mavericks 10.9.4. Everything I try now causes InDesign to freeze if I attempt to print. The only way is to export the file as a PDF. Thank you.

You shouldn’t be having a problem like that. I’m going to move this to the InDesign forum but it would help if you posted more details on the issues you’re having.
Another thing to try is exporting to INX from CS3 and opening the INX in CS5.5

Upgrade from Indesign CS3 to Indesign CS5 server

Hi,
I have been looking on adobe site to check if I can have an upgrade from Indesign CS3 to Indesign CS5 server. I have Indesign CS3 license but need to migrate to Indesign CS5 server. Does anybody know whether it is possible to buy upgrade from Indesign CS3 to Indesign CS5 server. Or will I have to buy new license for Indesign CS5 server. Any help on this is appriciated. Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I have been using Indesign CS3 for generating automated reports. These reports are large in numbers. Limitation with Indesign CS3 is it only allows single instance of the application. And hence I am forced to generate these reports in sequence using multiple servers. Indesign CS5 server on the other hand seems to allow multiple instances running at the same time. This would mean I can generate multiple reports at the same time. This will reduce time to generate these reports and also limit the number of servers. This is the reason I want to migrate from Indesign CS3 to Indesign CS5 server. However, I am not sure if I can get direct upgrade from Indesign CS3 to Indesign CS5 server or I have to buy new license for Indesign CS5 server. Do you have any idea on this, please suggest. Thanks in advance for your response.
Regards,
Chaitan.

Italics and boldface not preserved in cut-and-paste from InDesign CS3

This is using Mac InDesign CS3 5.0.1 and Mac Dreamweaver CS3
9.0.
When cuting-and-pasting text from InDesign CS3 to Dreamweaver
CS3, basic text formatting such as italics and boldface are not
preserved for me. When I select Edit, Paste Special in Dreamweaver,
the "Text with structure plus basic formatting (bold, italic)" is
not selectable when the clipboard holds InDesign-origin text.
If I paste the same InDesign text into Word, the formatting
is preserved and if I then cut-and-paste from Word into
Dreamweaver, boldface and italics are preserved. But I don't want
to cut-and-paste everything twice!
Do others experience this too?

Apparently it is an issue with Leopard (and Illustrator)
Workarounds:
1) Export from InDesign as eps or PDF, or
2) Copy paste into Photoshop as a Smartobject, and then double click the layer to edit smart object (it will open in Illustrator)
I know, it's a pain.

The difference of pdf export from Indesign CS3 and other Indesign version

Hi,
When I am exporting pdf of an Illustrator eps file from Indesign CS2 or CS4 etc.. i am getting the proper output as its there in illustrator, but when I am loading the same Image in CS3 and exporting pdf its not producing the proper output. Here I have my screen shots.
Cs3
other versions
awaiting your reply
Thanks in advance
Biju Mathew.

You have to educate your customer: EPS is an outdated and lossy file type because it does neither support transparency nor color management and should be avoided to be used with InDesign or Photoshop or Illustrator.
I don't understand, why so many insist in using EPS?

Exporting from InDesign CS3 to PDF: Headers disappearing

Hello all,
I have a bit of a problem I can't seem to fix. I looked all over the support forums, documentation, etc., but haven't found anything that resembles this.
I'm trying to create accessible PDFs in Indesign CS3 (Windows XP). I tagged everything in the document, lined them up correctly in the structure pane, mapped tags to styles, and exported to PDF with tags enabled.
The problem is the headers (H1, H2, etc.) don't show up in the tags or content windows in the Order Panel (Touchup Reading Order) in Acrobat Pro 8. Instead, they show up with Span tags. Alt text for my images are showing up, which leads me to believe I'm doing something wrong.
I don't get it. Am I missing a step? Is this just an oversight that CS4 solves?
Also, InDesign's Structure pane doesn't correspond correctly with Acrobat's Reading Order. It looks to me like the Reading Order is determined by the order in which objects appear in the original InDesign document. Stuff that is sent to the back ends up at the top of the Reading Order in Acrobat. This is a big issue for screen readers.
Any thoughts? I'm at a loss. I'd rather not retag all my headers in Acrobat.
thanks
Kurt

Even so - I don't know why - but the problem is with some fonts that the Euro doesn't show.
I always use the Euro font for the Euro symbol and never have an issue.
Even if you do manage to get the Helvetica Euro to show up in the PDF there is a chance it can drop out at the RIP stage and not appear in print - I've seen it happen far too many times.
Euro font is your friend.

Crashes when printing from InDesign CS3

It used to be that when I tried to print in InDesignCS3 in my MAC 10.7.5; I would go to: Crash printing | Illustrator, InDesign | CS3, CS4 | Mac OS 10.7
the I was told to just delete the following files:
[Hard Drive]/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/en.lproj
[Hard Drive]/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Zh_CN.lproj
[Hard Drive]/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Ja.lproj
[Hard Drive]/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/ko.lproj
[Hard Drive]/Library/Printers/PPDs/contents/Resources/Zh_TW.lproj
and everything worked out fine. Now, the above files don't even exist. Is there a new work-around??????

Thank you for the quick reply. Unfortunately we have already tried in safe mode and the issue is still there. We have also disabled all addons, created a new test profile and uninstalled re-installed Thunderbird and all print drivers, and Thunderbird still crashes when you try to print an email. Customer is considering using a different email client if we cant figure this out soon.

Acrobat 9/PDFX1a from Indesign CS3 dropping images.

Mac OS 10.5.5, 16GB RAM, Acrobat Pro 9, Indesign CS3 (5.0.3).
I export to PDF, chose PDFX-1a from the Job Options. Turn on All Marks, and Use Document Bleed.
Looking at the PDF in the Mac OS finder, the preview shows no images. Opening the PDF with Acrobat, it looks fine.
My client is complaining there are no images (They are using Win XP)
it appears as though under some odd circumstance PDFX1a is completely dropping placed psd images (Yes, they are CMYK and at 100%, one layer with transparency. The knockout fo rhte images is there, just no images.
Bug? Any idea why? This is a new one on me.
Using PDFX3 resolves the issue. But I've never had a problem like this with PDFX1a before.

Thansk Jon,
I can emulate it a few ways... Both the Finder Preview and Quicklook show the issue.
Opening the PDF with Illustrator 13.0.2, the PDF preview looks correct, but after opening, images are dropped.
Same is true with Photoshop 10.0.1 - PDF preview looks correct, but images are gone after rasterizing.
Placing in ID 5.0.3 both the Preview and the placed art don't have images.
See here:
But when I open the PDF with Acrobat it looks fine. I also analyzed the PDF and it's completely compliant with PDFX1a according to Acrobat Pro 9.

Accessible PDFs from InDesign CS3 and Acrobat Pro 8

Is there a good website or book that explains how to create an "accessible" PDF with text and images (no intaractivity or special fields to enter information)? Maybe a book for non-programmers.
I find a lot of general information and it always states that it's the best to do the tagging from the beginning in InDesign but what else does it ivolve? In what order should I do what?
Thanks.

I'm doing one of the exercises provided by Adobe and have a question (InDesign CS3). I just learned that you can assign the "Artifact" tag to a graphic frame in two ways: Either via "New Attribute" in the Structure window (Articat/TRUE) or by right clicking and "Tag Element > Artifact").
The results are different though. The New-Attribute-way keeps the name "Figure" and adds a Bullet to it saying Artifact=TRUE, while the right-click-option changes it from Figure to Artifact and adds no Bullet.
Is there any difference for the person receiving the PDF and what is the better version (for what)? Thanks a lot!

Acrobat 9 pdf links not working from InDesign CS3. What is wrong?

My links are working in my 40 page Indesign CS3 file using Mac. After I convert to a .pdf, some of the links are no longer going to the right location. They have either duplicated other links, or trying to take me incorrectly to my desktop or network. Can't figure out what is wrong.

Links meant to go to an outside website are supposed to be filled out in the following format : http://www.phillipmjones.net
in Acrobat should look something like : This is my personal website
In Acrobat go go create you link then click on action:
(I'm using my own personal website as an example)
If you choose something else such as open a file then that is what it does.

Export to pdf vs. print to pdf, from InDesign CS3

We are using Indesign CS3 on Windows XP. We are creating documents for offset printing, with 300dpi photos placed in the document. We are finding that when we "EXPORT" to pdf, and choose a "high quality print", the pdf is fine. However, if we 'print to pdf' and choose "high quality print", the photos in our pdf are more pixellated, and appear to be 150 dpi or lower resolution. Is this a problem with CS3? Does it make any difference how the tiff files have been placed, or sized, in InDesign? Has anyone else experienced this problem?

In the print dialog, when printing to PDF, under the graphics panel, make sure you change the default value of "Optimized Subsampling" to "all" for the "Send Image Data" field.

Export from Indesign CS3 to Illustrator CS3

I would like to know if thre's any kind of file format that allows me to pass a documente that i've created in Indesign CS3 to Illustrator. The PDF file makes that every word in the Indesign document, became a single text box on Illustrator CS3. All the other elements, when I open the PDF file that i've created in Indesign, are grouped and when i ungrouped them they charnge (sometimes color, or other things)
Thanks

Illustrator is not a general purpose PDF editor. For starters it can't
handle multiple color modes.
If you want your artwork in Illustrator you should create it there. If
you must get an ID file into AI format you're going to have some work to
do depending upon the layout.
