Export to PDF and print same swatch colour - different variation of colour on printouts

I have multiple documents - they are all set up the same way.
I have 2 or 3 swatches in each of them -namely Rubine Red is giving me an issue - this is the same swatch in every document!
===============
The Swatch
===========
Colour Settings
Here are my Colour Settings - the exact same in every document - I have also used the "Convert Profiles" and made sure all are the exact same.
=================
Export to PDF
When I export to PDF - the export looks great - and the coloured frames all look the exact same - and they give the exact same colour read outs in any profile I look at in the Preflight Manager
The CMYK Reading is 4/99/20/0 in all boxes
====================
The printed result
==================
Same colour settings
Same swatch and same swatch values
Same PDF export options
Same swatch values on output
Only 1 file prints the correct colour throughout
====================
PDF export settings
Test File
Can anyone help me with this?
The printer I am using is a XeroxColorQube using PS driver.
Windows 7
Adobe InDesign CS5.5
Fully updated

I've also exported the document to IDML - and I've unzipped that folder. I've read the information for the colour - there's only 1 reference to Rubine Red and that's giving the same percentages as the InDesign file.
I don't know where the 2nd shade of pink is coming from.
But I suspect that it's from the print driver itself.
Also - just occured to me, I lost my PDF settings a while ago, InDesign crashed and the PDF defaults were missing - I dowloaded a copy of a set from someone on these forums through a google search.
But I no longer have PDF x4 export option - where can I retrieve these.
How can I restore the original PDF settings for InDesign?

Export to PDF and Print to Postscript (in one step)

I am seeking a script that will do the following consecutively:
* Export to PDF (PDF settings never changes, output directory never changes)
* Print to PS (printer preset that is used never changes, output directory never changes)
It would save us a lot of time in our workflow having to do this in one step, with a single keyboard shortcut.
Since the same PDF and Printer presets are always used, as well as the output directories, It would
probably be easy to include those settings in the script itself, as opposed to some preference file, I'm guessing.
If anyone can help me write this, I'd much appreciate it.
Thanks,
Destin

Thanks Gerald for the suggestion.
Looks like some powerful software there... and a bit pricey for what I need to do (over $500 US dollars, yikes).
Surely the script I am seeking is much less involved than that. I suppose I'll have to try to do some Javascript myself,
which will be a learning experience...

Export to PDF and Print

To print a Pages Dokument from Ipad Apple support says: "When exporting documents, including PDF, ensure the target computer has access to the fonts used in the document."
My Target Computer is a Windows 7 PC. Where do I get access to the fonts of the Ipad, because they are not embedded in the PDF Export File?

In Pages, click on the i-icon. Choose the Style tab. Scroll down to Text Options. There you can choose fonts, and see which ones are available.
I guess you should try to take ones that you also have on Windows.

Odd floral pattern appears on export to PDF and print

I am trying to create a brochure, and it is ready to go, with one exception.
When I try to print, behind one photo and one text box, a faded purple floral pattern is appearing. I cannot see it in design mode. Should I be looking for a setting or hidden box? Kinda stuck and all help is appreciated.

You must be using that surf school brochure template. In previous versions of Pages that floral pattern was virtually invisible unless you zoomed in on the area. In the current template it is a bit more visible, but still could be missed. I see two of these boxes & they can be selected & deleted. If you see anything other than white squares when it is selected, please post back with what you see so we can explain how to deal with it.

InDesign documents, exported to .pdfs then printed on PC and Mac laser printers - what are best settings?

Our in-house creative department produces a lot of materials that are no longer going to our commercial printer.
Projects are created in Adobe InDesign, exported as .pdfs and stored on a site, where marketing partners can then download the .pdfs and print.
Usually from laser printers, usually pcs.
I would appreciate any advice on choosing settings for the .pdf (export) to help manage color etc.
thank you

If you are printing to laser printers by people that are not knowledgeable about color settings and device capabilities. I would not use Color Management. I would stick to something simple like Press Quality so that all the fonts used in your document will be embedded into the pdf so that you do not have to worry if the person printing the file has the fonts used in creating the documents.

Export to PDF and Spot Color Reg Marks

This sounds like a simple problem but I have not been able to find a way to do this. When I create a document in ID with 2 spot colors and then export to a pdf and add registration marks (or crop marks) at this stage, the reg marks are created as the spot colors in the document AND Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black. I am outputting to a RIP to generate printing plates. This is a problem because I will get six plates (four with only reg marks) rather than just the two I need. Is there a way to add the reg marks in the export stage so that they are created as only the colors that are present in the document?

Add a slug around your document (File>Document Setup>Show Options)
If your bleed is 3 mm and you want to add 5 mm crop marks, set the slug to be 8 mm all around
On the master page make a line at .25 pt and place this outside the bleed area and touching the slug line
Do this for all master pages.
Set the stroke colour to registration.
Export to PDF and choose to include bleed and slug.
Don't turn on crop marks.

Export for PDF and items disapear from the page...

Hello Big Masters,
please give me a solution to the fact that:
I lose some items (a text box and a graphic) at the export from Indesign to PDF.
-The file is 6 pages long. Simple. Some text and small pictures.
-The missing items are close to the right bottom of the page. It is allways on the same page. In my case on the last page.
-The missing item is exactly the same like some others. (it is like an object I could put on master page, but I wanted only to COPY/ PASTE IN PLACE)
-I tried countless solutions, but no one passed successfully. I tried to ungroup/regroup (it is an object made of letters and outlined letters), I tried to outline all of the object, I tried recopy the object, I tried to put the page in a different order (thinking that the bug always came on the last page), I closed down indesign, I tried different PDF quality options, I tried renaming and overwriting, I checked all the layers (they are all printable). NOTHING worked.
I start worring about the quality of Indesign, that I thought being the perfect software for multipage layouts, but I experienced this bug that wasted me 2 hours. In the researches for solutions I also found out that more problems are ahead in big ePubs or when you bring old big files, with Masterpages, it seems that is a real mess what comes out.
Do you experience these troubles with Bermuda-effect in Indesign (dissapearing items surprisingly unexpected...)???

The answer for you is YES.
But Still didn't get the bug solved.
The first pic as you see, is from ID before I export to PDF
and the last image is the crazy pdf file, I am getting.
If the adobe guys need my file for investigation, I can send it to them somehow.
But then again, I got a compromise solution by putting the "missing" object on a separate masterpage.

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.

Numbers | Export to PDF | Cannot Print Exported PDF

I am having a heck of a time with being able to print PDFs exported out of Numbers. I have tried both the File>Export command and I have printed to PDF and printed to Adobe PDF. Once I open the exported / printed PDF files in Acrobat Reader and try to print them, Reader freezes after 30 seconds of ramping up its memory usage in excess of 300MB. The PDFs are less than a MB in size. I have been able to successfully print the exported / printed PDF files using Preview on a Mac, but the reason I need to be able to convert my spreadsheets to PDF is so that a colleague in another state can print them from a PC. Anyone run into this issue? Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Is there a way to automate it such that it doesn't repeat the last row or do I just need to manually delete the formula out of all of the cells in the rows after the last?
There sure is. I was in a rush and made a mistake in my formula. I've posted solutions to this problem at least a half a dozen times here in the past and for some reason I didn't recall the bit that you are having trouble with. It came to me overnight that I had led you astray.
Here's a solution for the expression in the reduced table that I've used before and I'm pretty sure you will have success with:
=IF(ROW()<(MAX(Data :: E)+1), INDEX(Data, MATCH(ROW(), Data :: $E), COLUMN()), "")
Here's how it works...
The auxiliary column in the table Data reports the count of important rows. The reduced table searches for the count number in the Data table matching the row number in the reduced table. The Index function then transfers the data for the matching row. The problem in my posted solution was with the condition that limits the copying of rows to the reduced table.
Rather than checking the total number of rows in the data table, with an offset, I should have just checked to see how many "'important" rows there are by looking at the max count. The "+1" offset in the test is to account for the Header Row.

How do I get a PDF document put into an attachment form that I can drag to an e-mail. Usually I get an icon showing an spiral note book which then becomes an attachment when I drag it to the e-mail, but occasionally it stays in PDF and prints out on the e-mail. What have I done differently?

Thanks again for the detailed instructions Srini!
And I really hate to be a pest . . . but . . .
Using your example and not modifying it, I get the e-mail form filled out correctly and the pdf attached, however, I'm not prompted to sign it.
Any more clues?

AcroPDF in VB6 - Find text in PDF and print that page.

Okay, so I'm certain that this question has been asked and answered a hundred times, but for some reason my googling skills are seriously failing me today...
I have a legacy application built in VB6 that generates PDF documents of a particular form letter. Each PDF contains all of the form letters that were printed on that particular day. I actually have it all working rather decently, but something came up a little while ago that set me on a new programming obsession. I want to enable the following functionality from my application:
The user provides a text string that should be unique among all pages of all PDF's (customer ID).
The application then finds the PDF that contains that text string and identifies which page number contains that text string.
Finally, send only that page to the printer.
Currently I can easily create, display and print the PDF from my application. While the creation of the document is done through a third-party reporting system, all display and printing functions are basically handled using AcroPDF.dll. Going through the available properties and methods for an AcroPDF object, I see that I can tell it to print only specified pages, which gives me the last part of my requirements, and I've got the user input part down pat. I'm just totally stumped at finding a solution for "step 2".
Any suggestions, ideas or comments would be greatly appreciated. I'm kinda tired of banging my head against a wall. Thank you for your time.

If you are only using Adobe Reader, then that feature isn't available.
If you have Adobe Acrobat, then you have a few options.
