Errors found during preflight & where is export to PDF in CS5 ?

Hi,
I have updated a small manual  and then tried to export to pdf so I could open it with Acrobat 9 in order to impose with Quite Imposing. I couldn't find the export to pdf control so I tried preflight testing and discovered two chapters with errors.
How do I determine what the errors are?
Where is export to pdf?
Thanks,
Garrett

  • "Errors found during the burning process"

    Hello,
    I created an iDVD project that includes:
    1. 108-minute movie
    2. 6-minute movie
    3. 3-minute movie
    4. 12-minute slide show (3 four-minute slide shows)
    The project worked fine in the iDVD Preview. I then attempted to burn the DVD right from iDVD, and after 8 hours of encoding, I got the "Errors found during the burning process" message.
    I've read so many posts here with a hundred different possible solutions, but what is the best place to start to try to determine what the errors are and how to fix them?
    Following one suggestion, I am now creating a Disk Image first, but if errors still exist with a Disk Image, what do I do then?
    I'm working on a Powerbook G4 with the iLife upgrade. Thanks for any advice.

    Larry,
    Here's my philosophy on iDVD troubleshooting, largley based upon my experience here at this forum, with heavy doeses of input from Ken Tidwell, Len Goff, Old Toad, F Shippey, with more recent input from SDIllini, Hui Cheng, and Beverly M.......
    #0 - always use "Save as Disk Image" instead of burning when troubleshooting iDVD
    #1 Try the easy usual suspect fixes first! After all if these don't work you can always try the hard fixes!
    Check the list on this download:
    http://dvd.kentidwell.com/iDVDUOFAQ2005.pdf
    But here are easy solutions IMHO:
    Get free space on the startup drive -20GB recommended
    Delete the iDVD plist file com.apple.iDVD.plist
    Repair Disk Permissions
    Clear Cache Files (CacheOutX, TigerCacheCleaner, Onyx)
    Do you have 12 bit audio - check your camcorder.......if not 16 bit you will have problems
    Fix Chapter Markers-don't put one at the beginning in iMovie (iDVD will do it for you)
    Chapter Markers - don't put one at the end.
    Chapter Markers - don't put one within 2 secs of a transition
    Delete other corrupt preference files (try using Preferential Treatment)
    #2 When the easy fixes don't work, you need to divide and conquer. The suspects are your a) your project media, b)your hardware, c)your system/user preferences, d)iDVD.
    A good test for a&d is to build a simple test project with other photos/movies/themes/audio and see if you can "save as disk image" the test project. The iDVD4 tutorial project is great if you've ever had iDVD4 installed on your machine. If this works it suggests that iDVD is working OK, and that something in your project is causing the hiccup.
    The most common problems in projects are CMs, audio and transitions. One way that sometimes clears them up is to export to full quality DV (or to tape!) and re-import into iDVD. In slideshows, funny JPEGs can bring iDVD down. The only method here is to try different groups to find the bad actor.
    OK let's assume that you can't burn (I mean "Save as Disk Image") the test project or the tutorial. This suggest that your hardware/system/iDVD is having problems and your project is probably fine. Then what?
    c) Hardware: if you can make a disk image but can't burn it, or it plays badly, then try creating a data DVD - if you can't do that I'd suspect your DVD drive. Try different brands of DVD-R (and I'd stick to -R, not +R nor +RW), I like Verbatim. Next on the suspect list is RAM. iDVD is the best test for RAM known to mackind. Try pulling non-Apple supplied modules and try again.
    OK, let's assume you can make data DVDs, but you can't make a good disk image, and you've tried pulling all non-Apple RAM. What next?
    Try creating a new user. New users have more limited sets of fonts and all new preference files and caches, not only for iDVD but for everything, and few (if any) third party plug-ins installed.
    Finally try reinstalling iDVD.......
    If you've done all this, a new system install might be in order, but come here first for advice from others before going that far!

  • "Errors Found During Burning Process"

    Hi,
    Having sucessfully burned AVI movies using iDVD in the past I have started getting errors. iDVD now does the same thing regardless of the movie i'm trying to burn and the media I use.
    Having selected Best Quality (due to the film size), the menu rendering works fine, as does the prolonged job of encoding the video. When iDVD gets to the Audi encoding bit, just before it starts to burn the DVD itself, iDVD ejects the disc and states: Errors Found During Burning Process.
    Clicking on the arrow to get more info it states: "The recording device reported the hardware error: Tracking servo failure. (0x09, 0x01.)" Bizarrely, the main iDVD progress window states both 'Cleaning Up' and 'Writing Lead-In' and the only way to get out if it is to force quit.
    I've read a few posts on here and tried a couple of things such as trashing the plist file and reparing permissions. I also booted up the diagnostic disc to see if it could see a problem with the optical drive. But nothing has solved the problem.
    Any ideas?
    For reference, I'm running iDVD 5.0.1 on Tiger on a 1.8 G5 iMac with 1GB RAM.
    Appreciate any help you can give me.

    Colleagues:
    Ran into the same error, # -34506. Definitely frustrating as I was burning a DVD of an iMovie that I'd spent many hours editing. The iMovie is only 30 miniutes in length, so I don't think it's a size issue. iDVD went through each one of it's steps in burn DVD sequence. However, 45 minutes later when processing is finished, the message reads: "Burning Finished, Errors were found during the burning process." Clicked to see the detail: "The error # -34506 was reported." Checked the DVD and nothing was burned!!! The same thing happens when I opt for disk image. No img file is produced. This is especially frustrating as it looks like it all but completed processing.
    Does anyone know what Error # -34506 specifically indicates? How do you fix this? Does it only happen in a specific sequence? And, is Apple aware of the problem?
    Thanks!

  • ERRORS found during the burning process #-34506...any idea what this means?

    ERRORS found during the burning process #-34506...any idea what this means?
    This one project I want to copy to DVD keeps saying this when I go to burn (that is after nearly 2 hrs of processing). There is nothing wrong with the movie so i don't know why i'm having such a problem burning it. i guess to start i'd need to know what this code means (I couldn't find it in iDVD help).
    thanks in advance

    First I'd be certain that I had changed the preferences from best quality to best performance.
    Did you follow the chapter rules?
    *Make sure no chapter markers are within two seconds of the start or end of the timeline.
    *Make sure no chapter markers are within a transition.
    *Make sure no chapter markers are within two seconds of the end of a transition.
    You may have already done this, but
    Quit iDVD. Search for the file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and trash it. (A new one will be created next launch of iDVD.) Or look in: User/Library/Preferences. This may solve project loading errors too. Restart and use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions.

  • Error found during burning process

    I am having a problem burning my iDVD project to disk. I'm using DVD-R disks. The message I get is "Errors found during burning process". The burning process seems to work correctly all the way through until it gets to the last step - "burning".

    There are lots of things that can cause problems burning to disk.
    I suggest that you save your project as a disk image (an option on the iDVD file menu) and see if that is successful. If it is successful, that would eliminate issues related to iDVD, encoding, and source material. After that, I would look to what brand of DVD you are using (Verbatim, Sony, Fuji, and Hp are oft recommended here), what burn speed (4x or lower is best), whether all iLife programs are up to date, whether you have any 3rd party or Quicktime plug-ins that might be interfering, whether you have sufficient hard disk space to burn (20 Gb is recommended, although 5GB would be absolute minimum).

  • Export the pdf from indesign some error Pop Up window (Failed to Export the PDF file). How slove the

    Export the pdf from indesign some error Pop Up window (Failed to Export the PDF file). How slove the problem
    Please some one help on this

    You need to try exporting the first half of the book.
    If that exports ok then export the other half of the book.
    Whatever half it fails on - keep dividing the book in half to find the culprit page or pages.
    For example if your book is 128 pages long:
    1. Export pages 1 - 63
    2. If these Fail to Export then
    3. try exporting1-32
    4. If these Fail to Export
    5. then try exporting1-16
    If it doesn't fail (step 2)
    Then export pages 64-128
    and 64-90 etc.
    until you find the pages causing the issues.

  • G3 imac can't update past 10.4.6 "errors found during update"

    I'm issues with a slot-loading g3 imac updating past 10.4.6 (the version i installed from the dvd). the boot rom number is 4.9.f1. I tried to format after the first incident to no avail. It runs pretty good as is but I need to get Ilife 08 on it(which claims to need 10.4.10 i believe). The first go at this I ran software update, it updated everything but the 10.4.11 combined, which rendered my Itunes unusable because it needs 10.4.9 or later. I even went as far as just downloading the 10.4.7 combined update with the same outcome. Instalation on the os x update runs normal and the just stops, saying there were errors found try updating again.
    Please help!!!
    Thanks in advance,
    Dan

    A G3 won't see more than 128 GB of a drive. You can put in a larger drive but the computer won't see anything beyond the first 128GB, not even if you partition. I know with G4s you can put in ATA PCI cards which will allow you to use bigger drives, and there's a utility called [SpeedTools|http://www.speedtools2.com> which is a software solution (read carefully before using as there are drawbacks vs. hardware).
    A hard drive is one place where I am hesitant about buying used, especially if it is one that is the same vintage as your computer with who knows how many hours on it. I am saying this because I don't think if you buy new that you will find anything less than 7200, 8MB, 160 GB, etc. I also see people asking $30 for used 120GB drives, and you can get a new 160GB drive for not much more if you hunt around and fill out your rebate coupons.
    You can get a bigger drive, use the first 128 GB with this computer, then when you get a new computer move the drive into it and use the whole thing (assuming you get a computer that supports big drives as just about any computer made in the past 4 years will do).
    Personally I like Seagate drives, but you'll get all kinds of responses on this.
    Since this is moving more into the hardware realm you might consider reposting the issue in the imac and/or G3 forum.
    Oh, one more thing, I wouldn't necessarily kiss the drive goodbye. If you have given up on directory repair why not try reformatting it with the erase option (to do a scan for bad blocks) and see if it still has some life left in it? I am still running two 120GB drives in this computer, at least one of which is 5 years old.

  • I am getting an error when attempting to save or export a PDF to Word

    When attempting to save as OR export a PDF document to Word, I am getting the following error:   Bad PDF, error in processing fonts. <cannot find CMap resource file>.  Does anyone know how to fix this?  I also attached an image of the error pop up.

    There are some preflight scripts to fix errors in a PDF. You might try those, particularly for fonts. An alternative is to refry the PDF by printing to a new PDF and then trying to save that to WORD.

  • Buttons not exporting to PDF from CS5

    Howdy, all. I've a problem exporting documents containing buttons to PDF. Specifically, CS5 doesn't export interactive buttons placed in my InDesign document to interactive buttons in a PDF file; they show up, instead, as simple, non-interactive graphics. (No pointing fingers, no actions.)
    This is true for all documents I have created in or imported into CS5.
    As a test, I went back to CS4 and created a document with a single button chosen from the "Sample Buttons," to which I attached the "Next Page" action. Exporting to PDF from CS4 works fine; I get a functioning Next Page button in the resulting PDF file. Opening the same InDesign document in CS5 and exporting with the same settings to PDF yields a non-functioning button graphic appearing on the PDF page.
    Opening the PDF file in BBEdit, I see that there is no "Fields" entry in the PDF file's Catalog dictionary, so it seems as though the button is, indeed, being exported into the PDF file as a simple graphic.
    What obscure CS5 setting (presumably hiding in plain sight) am I missing?
    By the way, CS5 does export the buttons correctly to swf.
    Thanks much.
    - John

    In CS5 you have to change the export type to an 'Adobe PDF (Interactive)' to get the buttons to work.
    Bit of a pain because you can't save presets like you can with the standard PDF export, but you can specify some of the PDFs view settings at the same time.  In my view they should have just added all that functionality to the standard PDF export, but perhaps that wasn't possible.  However it was a dud decision to remove working button export from the other PDF export.

  • Impossibilité d'exporter en pdf (InDesign CS5)

    Bonjour,
    Parfois quand je veux exporter un document InDesign CS5 en pdf, rien ne se passe, et quand je veux fermer le document en question j'ai le message d'erreur suivant : "InDesign ne peut pas fermer le document car il est utilisé par une ou plusieurs tâches en arrière-plan". Mais aucun fichier pdf n'est généré... La seule solution (de fortune) que j'ai trouvée pour l'instant est de forcer InDesign à quitter, puis de réessayer jusqu'à tant que ça fonctionne.
    Quelqu'un aurait-il une solution ?
    Un grand merci par avance

    Bonjour,
    J'ai exactement le même souci, et depuis 2 ordinateurs différents (Imac du bureau et Macbook de la maison)
    Je suis sur 2 licences (légales :-) ) différentes.
    Quand j'essaye d'exporter mes documents, ça mouline dans le vide, et si j'affiche la progression de l'exportation, ça bloque à 0%.
    La seule solution que j'ai trouvé, c'est d'enregistrer, forcer InDesign à fermer, relancer et là ça marche.
    Mais dès que je fais la moindre modif sur mon document, ça plante à nouveau.
    C'est plutôt inssuportable.
    Existe-t-il une solution à ce problème, j'ai fait toutes les mises à jour et rien y fait, et c'est quand même mon métier de créer des documents. Cette option qui devait nous faire gagner beaucoup de temps me fait au contraire perdre un temps fou !!!
    Allez Adobe, je te lâche 1200 € tous les 2 ans, trouves moi une solution s'il te plait !!!
    Bien à vous.

  • An error occurs when I try to export a PDF document

    When I try to upload a PDF to export, it uploads fine, but when it is converting the document to word, it tells me that there is an error.

    Hi Trudes193,
    Are you converting from the web interface, or via Adobe Reader (and what version? Does the error occur with any file that you try to convert, or is it specific to one file? How many files do you have stored in your Acrobat.com account?
    We look forward to hearing back from you.

  • Texts/fonts error while sending book to Blurb & exporting to PDF

    On my new MacbookPro using Lightroom Creative Cloud just downloaded, I find I can't upload my book to Blurb or export it to PDF (Blurb's recommended workaround).  I both efforts, I get an error message that "an error occurred while adding texts & fonts to the book."  I'm using LR's supplied fonts in the same manner as prior books which successfully uploaded to Blurb (from my old PC).  A workaround using a flattened PS pdf file is beyond me.  Any suggestions?

    I am having exactly the same issues. I get the same error message sending to Blurb or pdf. I tested all my fonts in another book, and that uploaded just fine, so it can't be the fonts on their own. I also tried this in LR5 prior to upgrading to LR6 CC, same problem.
    I have noticed a few of these queries here in the discussions and none of the others have been responded to either. Someone, please help!

  • Problems exporting interactive PDF in CS5.5

    When I try to use my old PDF settings from CS4 my interactive elements do not work. See the snapshot below.
    I am able to export successfully pressing Command-E and choosing Adobe PDF (Interactive) but the images, at least in the first example I have chosen, do not reproduce properly in the PDF. See comparison of original created in CS4 (left) and the CS5.5 version (right):
    Does anyone have any ideas how to resolve this?
    I am using Acrobat X and system 10.6.8

    I have found the answer to this problem myself!
    Because the interactive setting does not support spot colours being kept it causes problems with any RGB Illustrator files that have been set up using a spot colour. You may well ask why you would want spot colours in an RGB Illustrator file. Well, it's to keep any Lab values intact, but to get around the PDF colour issue you can't have any spots used in this way.
