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.

  • 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.

    Is there a list available that identifies fonts required by

  • 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!

  • 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:
    %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%

    The steps she takes if file - export - adobe print PDF and then selects smallest file size. The file is packaged
    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.
    %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
    %%[ Error: ioerror; OffendingCommand: readstring ]%%

    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.

  • 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!

    Hi  Bruce,
    Are you using EMET Antivirus? I have seen the issue caused due to this. Try disabling it and  check.
    I have seen this issue fixed for some users by modifying the following registry key:
    The key is "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" MoveImages
    Set the key to 1 instead of 0 then reboot the machine.
    In case you still face the issue try the following registry key change:
    The only thing you have to do is rename the following key at the REGEDIT, and everything will be fine !!
    BEFORE:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.exe
    AFTER:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.old
    Note: Please take a backup of the registry before attempting this change.
    Regards,

  • Text wrapping when exporting to .pdf

    I'm running Pages 5.2 on OSX 10.9.2. When exporting my document to .pdf, it does not retain it's text wrapping. When viewing the document in Pages, everything is where I put it. When viewing the document as a .pdf after exporting, some of the text will no longer be wrapped around some of the pictures. Which text no longer wraps around which picture changes every time I export, even without altering the document in any way. I have tried grouping the objects and the text together, which only seemed to cause more text to fail to wrap.

    I'm using Acrobat X. I've attached a cap of the InDesign poster, and what I get when exporting to PDF -- I lose the title, and "Directed by..." (which is the same type size/color as the playwright). Also, I have overprint preview checked for automatic (and tried all the other settings, too).

  • Objects missing when exporting to PDF, but show up when printing to PDF

    Hi - I'm working with someone, both of us in InDesign CS4, and she has some documents that cause a few random objects to just go missing when exported to PDF (same on my computer). But when printing to PDF, they show up fine. They also show up fine if we recreate each individual object, but that can end up being a lot of work. She prefers to export to PDF because of quality. I'm drawing a blank on this one!
    The attached file shows the issue. The green blocks just don't want to show up when exporting.

    Peter -
    The links are just the PDFs of the black and white portions and don't really matter too much since they show up fine when exporting or printing to PDF. Our main concern is the green blocks, which are indeed the green areas of the plan you pointed out. They are actually separate objects created directly within InDesign that can be moved and adjusted.
    I just updated to 6.0.4 and that didn't help. I wonder if this may be a variant of the bugs I was reading about with master pages and certain things not showing up when creating PDFs or printing (even though none of these things are on the master page)?
    Thanks

  • Text dropping when exporting to PDF

    I'm working on an very large poster for a theatre company. The poster has an image, and uses the font Gotham for the text. When I export to PDF from InDesign 5.5, some of the text disappears. I used effects on the title, which disappears, but also some text at the same size/color as other text that does show up. It can't be a corrupt font issue because it's showing up correctly in most areas. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?
