Error when exporting to .pdf "blue boxes"

Does anyone know what happened here? I have been doing this for years and all of a sudden the pictures are just blue boxes when I export to a .pdf file. And it takes forever to go through the process. Some of the photos are OK, but the majority just show up as these empty squares. Please help.

I'm using Pagemaker 7.0.2 and Mac OS 10.2.8. and Pagemaker runs on 9.2.2.
I made a mistake last night and hit a goofy combination of command/control/alt (who knows what it was? I was trying to get rid of those ghost arrows and things that pop up) and my monitor went to "negative" = like a photo negative. I finally figured out how to fix that in the System Preferences/Universal Access.
I reinstalled Pagemaker, and some of the pictures show up, and some are just blue boxes. I embedded all of the pictures. Still doesn't work. And it takes a long time to export to the .pdf.
Now I found another glitch, and the Pagemaker won't let me create a booklet. Gives me Error 7241- can't find that error number anywhere.
Do you think there's a solution? Or do I have to dump my beloved Pagemaker and go to InDesign. That means I would have to reformat 30 newsletters!

Error when exporting to pdf using Infoview.

Hi,
If I preview one of our reports (built in CRXI) in the CMC for CR server and then attempt to export the output to a PDF after waiting for a few mins I get the error:
Error
Your request could not be completed because a failure occurred while the report was being processed. Please contact your system administrator.
The report has 6 supreports each that take 2 parameters. Previously we have had problems with this report when trying to change the database connections for the subreports (we were getting a 'Missing prompting units' error until we started making the database connection change in CRXI, running from CRXI not the CMC and then saving the file to the repository once it had run successfully with the new connection settings).
All our other reports preview fine, they do not generally use sub-reports or multiple parameters though.
Thanks for your help.

There's so many variables for each Enterprise action, even with an effort to improve these over the years, the Enterprise error messages are usually so vague you have to trace to really identify the issue.
Exporting directly from Crystal Reports is a good start.
Sometimes it's just a matter of the report has streamed the 1st/beginning pages to you, but it is still processing in the background when the export to pdf is executed. Since the report is not complete, it fails. Try scheduling it directly to pdf to eliminate this possibility.
Else you will have to trace the Page Server or RAS to get more info.

Page Number Error when export to PDF

I am getting an error on page numbers for a book file when I export to PDF. The page numbers are set in the master pages and when I export each chapter individually the page number show fine. When I export the entire book, then some of the page numbers repeat. The pages are the right pages, but the numbers change incorrectly. For instance, the sequence goes, 58, 59, 58, 61 and 72, 73, 72, 73, 76.
I've updated to the latest InDesign (7.5.2) and have tried multiple PDF export options (High Print, Press, PDF/X, etc) and nothing fixes it.
Any suggestions?
thanks

This is a known (and fairly catastrophic) problem in CS5.5.
Some people have found exporting the individual INDD files to IDML, resaving them as INDD files (don't overwrite your originals!! Make a backup first!), and recreating the book works...for a while.
You could revert to CS5.0 if you have a license for it.
CS6 is on the horizon and should fix this bug.
Hopefully there'll be a CS5.5 maintenance update to do so as well.
Sorry I don't have a better suggestion.

Fireworks CS4 internal error when export to PDF

Trying to export a PDF from a layout gets an internal error
message with Fireworks CS4. The layout involves a master page plus
5 pages with a few PSD images imported. To test to see if it was
something to do with the specific file, I tried another simple
single page png which initially exported but then started to fail
as well. Regular export to CSS, etc. seems to be fine. My OS is
Vista Business.
I've tried googling for a solution but have only found topics
around certain fonts causing start up failures.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Internal Error when Exporting to PDF

Hello all,
I have created a report in SSRS 2008. My report was running fine until I inserted an extra row. Once I would insert this row,(no matter where I insert it) whenever I try to view the print layout or export to a PDF I get the following error:
"An internal error occured on the report server. See the error log for more details. (rsInternalError)"
Checking the error log I found this:
library!ReportServer_0-90!12f4!01/09/2015-07:46:21:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.InternalCatalogException: ScalableList: Index -1 outside the allowed range [0::5], Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.InternalCatalogException:
An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log for more details.;
I have researched a great deal to try to figure out what could be causing this problem. I found several threads that had a similar problem and their solution was to set all "Hide Duplicates" properties to "None." I have checked several
times and my report has all it's "Hide Duplicates" properties set to "none."
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this error?
Thanks,
Sarah

I found out what was causing the error in my report.
When the original report was created, a parent group was created. When a parent group is created, SSRS automatically adds an extra column with whatever it’s child group was grouped by inside of it. When this column was created, instead of deleting the text
inside the column or deleting the column, the column was made so small that you almost couldn’t tell it was there. I did not realize it was there until today. Since SSRS is pretty picky, it did not like that column.
You could do 3 things to get rid of the error:
Delete the column
Delete the text inside of the column
Expand the column so that the text inside it is visible
I tested all 3 approaches by adding 25 extra rows after applying the solution and all would export to a PDF just fine.
So basically if anyone out there happens to have the same issues I had, check and make sure you don't have any extra columns hiding anywhere. Hopefully this can help someone someday!

Error when exporting to pdf - cannot read a jpeg image, but I do not know which jpeg image.

I have created a document (A5) in Indesign cs6 with 116 pages. Because I would like to print the book I want to export it to pdf. Normally this is no problem for me, but now I got the following error: "Error encountered while reading JPEG image. Image may be damaged or incompatible. Resave the image with different settings and try again." This is quite annoying as my book contains 631 links of which most are .jpg. Does anyone know how I can find out which picture gives the error?
What is remarkable is the following. As it is a very large file InDesign automatically splitted it in subsections (with names like 'A5 V' or 'A5 V3'). To get closer to the problem I tried to export each subsection (all between 3 and 30 pages) to pdf. But somehow I managed to do this, so one might think that there is nothing wrong with the document at all. But when I try to expor the document as a whole again I still get this error about the JPEG image. It takes a couple of minutes (somewhere between 30 and 40% of the exporting) before I get the error.
Is there anything I should have tried which I forgot? I hope anyone can help me with this problem.

If you are able to export as sections it's almost certainly not actually a problem with the image, but a problem of not enough system resources to finish the job. This is not uncommon with large complex PDF exports.
Try rebooting, then immediately open ID and try the export again first thing. If it works, great. If not, you can combine your sections into a single PDF in Acrobat Pro.

New InDesign Error when Exporting to PDF

since upgrading to CS 5.5 my entire company has encountered numerous issues and errors with InDesign. This however, is a new one and I was wondering if anyone knew the root cause of such an error and a potential fix.
here's the error message my marketer is getting when trying to export a document to a pdf:

Any comments/thoughts/help is greatly appreciated.

If anybody is still tracking this thread -
I've got a weird variation on the same problem. I've got a 400+ page document, which was printing fine until yesterday. Now I'm getting the error.

I ran into this once before, found this thread, figured out that there was a problem with the master pages, as no subset of pages would print. So I deleted and created new master pages again this time. Now, if I just have one master page, it's fine, but as soon as I add the facing master page, the odd-numbered pages won't print. If I run just the even pages, it's fine. If I run the whole thing with a single master, it's fine. But I need different masters for the odd and even pages. ANY CLUE where the error might be, or how to work around it? I'm starting with blank pages for the masters, and the problem happens before I add any elements to the odd-numbered master.
Windows 7, CS 5.1, but since it has worked fine in the past, I don't think it's a system problem. I inadvertently hit a key yesterday that asked me about doing something with my pasteboard (I hit cancel, don't remember what it was), but if I do a Select All, I don't see anything lurking outside the print area to cause problems.

Error in character spacing when exporting to pdf from word 07

I am having trouble with exporting to pdf from MS Word 07. The character spacing throughout the document is wacky. This also happens when exporting to pdf from a GIS program.
Any help?

I use the term export because that is how it is done in the GIS software that I use - ArcMap 10.
In MS Word I access Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 through the print menu. I am using Windows 7.
I do not always have this trouble, but it started yesterday on a 30 page word doc and then after that, it started on an ArcMap doc.
As for embedding fonts, when I check the Word doc as you suggested, i see many different fonts listed. Some are embedded, some embedded subset, some are not embedded at all. I use styles to manage font types and heading levels. There is nothing fancy about it - all Times New Roman.

Error when exporting reports using MAPI

We created a .NET class that wraps CR 2010 .NET Crystal Reports functions and made it COM visible. This class is used to create a COM object in a js script which in turn used to export reports to a PDF file with the destination MAPI.
It exports reports just fine without any errors however if prior to instantiation the exporting class we instantiate a class that has nothing to do with the Crystal Reports functions, our exporting object throws u201CExternal component has thrown an exception.u201D error when exporting. It appears that it has something to do with the SideBySide feature. I was wondering if somebody knows what causes this and if there is a way to fix this problem.
Thanks for your help!

Background missing when export to PDF CS5.5

Hi,
I have seen some similar posts (all non-current) to the one I am writing however, my issues are not solved by the solutions posted in previous discussions.
My problem is that when I am exporting an IND file to PDF, when I open the PDF all of my background images are missing. In most examples this is a full page black box. But since testing this problem I have encountered the same issue with any colour and some photographs.
I am working in CS5.5, with all software up to date (version 7.5.3)
I have tested this in new documents and old documents that previously would have exported the background.
These items are not on master pages. I have tested this on brand spankin new pages and existing ones (with and without any elements on master pages)
I have tested the boxes with and without transparency.
There is no issue with overprint or the overprint preview check box.
I have tried saving the file as an .IDML and reopening to see if it will 'debug' the file. I have exported the PDF as every kind of option. I have restarted the computer and the program several times. I have checked for new updates.
The only way that I have 'cracked' this issue so far is to break the one large background image into at least 3 overlapping solid boxes. It seems that you cant have any box overlap more than 2 page boundaries.
Is anyone else having this problem or any other advice on what to try.
Thank you

Hi Eugene,
The document in question is 1) not using master pages and 2) not using spreads. Its a single page A4 document.
Hi Peter,
Sorry I am not trying to span two pages. My comment was that the graphic box seems to glitch when it touches more than 2 boundaries of the page ie left right top bottom.
I am using the full creative suite CS5.5, no hacks, no substitute programs.
I have attached a few screen captures.
Sample file in indesign:
Screen capture when exported to PDF:
split the background box into 2 (i have used 2 blacks so you can see the boundary). Export to PDF:

Unknown error when exporting 32-bit 5.1 wav audio

I get the ever useful "Unknown error" when exporting the audio from Premiere Pro CS6 to a 32-bit, 5.1 channel uncompressed WAV file most of the time. I was able to get it to work just fine by pasting the audio to a new project, but that isn't working anymore. I get the same error when I change it to 24-bit audio. However, when I change to 16-bit sound it works fine.
First, is there a real audible difference between 16- and 32-bit when it's all going through a WAV to AC3 converter? The AC3 files get dumped into Encore as the audio track so that I can get 5.1 sound on blu-rays instead of Encore re-encoding things.
Second, what would cause it suddenly not work, and how can I get it working again?

That error can happen for many reasons...one of the reasons that I occassionaly get it is because I try exporting a movie to an external drive that has been formated in the old FAT32 instead of the NTSF standard. FAT32 only allows for file sizes up to 2 gigs. And as soon as it reaches that...I would get that error. I don't know if that is why you are getting that error...but it would be easy to check. 1) are you generating a file that is over 2 gigs? 2) is your drive that you are exporting to FAT 32 (just right click the drive in My Computer and select "properties" then just look for what it says next to "file system".
