CS6 Cannot Convert PM Files but CS5.5 Can

Hello,
I have just purchased CS6 (I need this version since I have to convert many PageMaker files). I was able to convert some PM files which do not have many graphics, but for those which has several graphics, CS6 cannot convert them. The "Processing Stories" window appeared but became non-responsive and I have to force CS6 to quit with the Task Manager.
However, If I use CS5.5 (I installed the CS5.5 Trial version before I purchased CS6), I was able to convert ALL PM files without any problems, no matter how many graphics are in the documents.
Does anyone know why CS6 couldn't convert but CS5.5 can?
As of now, I have to use CS5.5 to convert the PM files, then export them into IDMLs, then open them in CS6. But my CS5.5 Trial will expire in about 20 days, after that, I don't think I can use it anymore.
So I would really like to solve the CS6 issues before my CS5.5 Trial expires.
Any comments/suggestions are much appreciated.
Thank you.
PS: I have emptied the InDesign Recovery folder whenever CS6 crashed.

Hi Peter,
Yes, that's what I am planning to do. I just thought maybe someone might have the same issues as mine and can shed some light on how to fix it.
I wish Adobe will let me use the License number for CS6 with CS5.5 also. But I found out that you cannot. I guess that's how Adobe make a profit. Every time you upgrade to a different version, you have to buy another license.
Thank you.

I cannot convert my file

just paid for this adobe acrobat converter, and when i tried to convert a simple word txt file to acrobat file or whatever, it said it couldnt' do it and i needed to go to the windows printer pdf page? i dont know what that means and i'm annoyed that a simple task (txt to PDF) that was promised by the software is not accomplishable.

Hi,
Thank you for your subscription and I apologize for your bad experience you had to go through.
I assume from your description that the printer is Adobe CreatePDF desktop printer. When users cannot convert some files to PDF we suggest user to download the CreatePDF desktop printer to your local computer. When the printer is used from application (such as MS Office, WordPad..) the resultant PDF file will be stored at https://files.acrobat.com then you can download the file.
Please see more information about the desktop printer at "Adobe CreatePDF desktop application" section of http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat-com/kb/using-createpdf.html
Please send me your file if possible so that I can look into the prolem why you could not convert it to PDF.

Have you updated your Photoshop to get the latest Camera Raw update patch? If not go to:
Help >> Updates
This should get you the necessary updates for your camera assuming it is not "too recent".
Good luck and post back.

They didn't make it that way. Being an adopted product, they probably still need time to add features like that if they are possible.

Cannot convert .tif file to .pdf in IE when I have an Abode Reader window open.
I have a .pdf file open in Adobe Reader that is on my works P:/ drive. Then I open a .tif file from a website in Windows Phone and Fax Viewer and Right click it and select "Convert to Adobe PDF". I get the following message
Adobe Reader could not open "filename.tif" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has not been damaged (For example, it was sent as a an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
I have a work around for this. Simply closing the Adobe Reader that was previously opened and the attempting to "Convert to Adobe PDF" will then work properly. Was wondering if there was a fix to this issue beacuse it is frustrating to always have to close my other .pdf files to do this action.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

When I drag the item off of the trifold that I am creating, it just disappears but I still want to use it. I just need to move it out of the way to modify other portions of the document.
thanks,

After I have converted PDF file to Word how can I select certain pages to save them as a new document? Thank you

After I have converted PDF file to Word how can I select certain pages to save them as a new document? Thank you

You've said you have a Word file and want to use some pages in the file to create a new document.
Use Word to establish a new Word file that has the desired pages for the original Word file.
You now have a "new document" of the desired pages.
With Acrobat Standard or Pro installed you can create a "new document" PDF.
If you do not have Acrobat Standard or Pro or a subscription to an online Adobe service that can create PDF from MS Word you can use the Microsoft process to create PDF that comes with MS Word.
Be well...

Converting CS3 files to CS5

Hi, Just a quick question. We have been using DW CS3 for quite some time and have a fairly basic website using it. We are thinking about going to CS5. Is the converting of the files in the website project folder (which is offline) going to be a problem? We would like to upgrad to make use of some of the new features and so we can be compatable with outside devlopers we want to have work on the site. Thanks!

Yes. I posted something on another thread that seems related so I
will try to elaborate. I have files that were created in Dreamweaver
CS3 and recently upgraded to CS5. I have both programs still on my
system, which is Mac OS 10.6.8. When I try to open the CS3 files in
CS5 I cannot do so because the site and html files is not there
visually. This is why I asked about the need to convert. I did find a
way to do something which is hinky but, I will share it since it is
so simple and seems to solve the other problem as well.
I opened the site file in CS3. opened the site management and
exported the site to a new folder. Now the site is visible and I can
open all the files inside CS5. It does create an extra site file, so
I just deleted that one and am left with a usable site in CS5.
I plan to copy off the sites to a new folder and then proceed rather
than overwriting the old ones, just in case.
I hope this helps someone else.

I have downloaded the Adobe DNG converter to my Mac OSX 10.4.11 and have tried opening RAW
files from my Canon Powershot G12 and EOS 550D SLR and the converter will not read the files. I have learned from other posts about dropping the folder into the icon but when I do the notice comes up "cannot parse the file." Any ideas out there?

Currently the upgrade to Snow Leopard (DVD in the box) is $29 US Cy from Apple:

Contrary to what it says there, that is all you need. You DO NOT need to upgrade to Leopard first. You can go straight from Tiger 10.4.11 to Snow Leopard for $29.
CS4 will cease to be upgradeable towards the end of this year, perhaps as early as November of 2012.
The superior rendering in ACR 7.1 is more than worth the cost of the upgrade. You could even say that converting one irreplaceable raw image is worth the total cost.

Try Easy Find first, it's totally free, although Find Any File is indeed faster.

Finally if you still can't get DNG Converter 7.1 to launch, then download version 6.4, but nothing earlier than 6.4:

Cannot convert pdf file to Word using Adobe ExportPDF online...I get a timeout error after a wait of about 15 minutes

Oh...BTW...I am using Windows 7 with Chrome browser and I disabled text recognition. The file is 3.7 MB. It says it failed because it is taking too long to process however the Adobe export PDF notes that it can convert unlimited files to Word or Excel files. Anything else I can try? I exported it to Adobe.com and tried toconvert it there but it looks like the same process...and with the same result.

Hi there,
It sounds like there may be an issue with the quality of the PDF. Not all PDFs are created equal, and especially those created from scanned documents can be problematic if the scan quality isn't the best. Is there a dark background on the PDF, or stray marks or smudges?
You can try converting with OCR disabled at outlined in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (O... | Adobe Community. But, while that's a good test to find out where the problem lies, you'll end up with a Word document that isn't editable, so it's not an optimal solution.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,

ITunes cannot convert WMA files?

I recently purchased the new Ice Cube CD, and included was a code for two digital downloads. I got the downloads as WMA files, and when I tried dragging them into iTunes to be converted, a window appeared saying that it could not convert the files because they are "protected WMA files". Any way around this?

Hello,
There is no legal way around this, and you won't be seeing iTunes convert protected WMA anytime soon without a partnership with the original content provider (again, unlikely)
Sorry

slow.why iwork cannot do this?
NeoOffice is slow compared to some programs, but it is the most accurate at opening Excel spreadsheets.
iWork does not open spreadsheets because it does not have a spreadsheet program. Check back in January to see if Apple add a spreadsheet to iWork '07, and in the meantime let Apple know that you want one.
