Export to Word Errors - possible fix

Like several other people have mentioned, I wasn't able to export to Word. I'd get an "unknown error has occurred" error message and it failed. I decided today I'd solve this problem if I could and since I knew lots of people were exporting as Word okay I had three suspects in mind. It was my second.
Using Font Book, I turned off all the Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Arabic fonts because I don't need them. Oops. I haven't delved into which are absolutely necessary (assuming any are not) but turning on all the default Apple fonts was the fix for me.

Great tip. Following your advice with a little trial and error discovered that the Japanese font Hiragino Kaku Gothic Pro is the only one I needed to activate in order to successfully export to Word.

Export to Word Error

When I use the File . . . Export menu and choose Word, I get an error message. The Exporter works fine going to RTF. Anybody encountered this and know a fix? I really like Pages a lot more than Word but I have to open Pages documents in Word sometimes. If I just try to open in Word, without any export conversion, I get a window with all kinds of files and folders in it, none of which is the document. "Help" says to export. But now the error. If I export to RTF I can open fine in Word, but why do that?

What error message do you get?

Exporting to word error "Directory name is not valid.. "

Hi Experts,
I'm getting an error when I'm exporting a Delivery document to word document, Microsoft word opens but error message appears: "Directory name is not valid. C:\Program Files\SAP\...ODLN.428.doc". I am getting the error in the client workstation.
I tried correcting the path in the server for the word templates path, but still the error persist.
Client is using 2007 version SP1 PL8 HF3.
Thanks,
Don

Hi Don Elicor
Check the Administration > System Initialization > General Settings > Path tab for the definition of a proper path to the Word directory.
Hope Helpful

InDesign 6: When exporting to PDF - error message fix a pixels/picas

InDesign 6: When exporting to PDF - get error message to go into Preferences and fix a pixels/picas issue - I've been working in the same project for two days and exporting pages all along without this trouble - just started all of a sudden. Haven't changed any settings... How can I fix this?

'Unknown Error' on Export or Word!

Any attempt to export any document (even a blank one) to Word format fails with an "unknown error".
This is a new error that did not occur before, even with complex documents. I have rebooted, deleted the preferences file, etc. Does anyone else have this problem? Any thoughts on how to fix it?

I have been FIGHTING with the "Unknown export error" problem all day long, and I just figured out what the problem with my particular document was: it was because I had pasted an outline from Keynote into my document.
Here's a run-down of the other possible causes of this problem (all of which I tried and none of which worked): I tried deleting my preferences, activating and validating all my fonts, unclicking the "Include preview in document" box in the "Save as" menu. Because I was able to export a blank .pages document to Word, I went through my entire document, deleting bits of it until I was successfully able to export to Word.
I discovered that it was because I had pasted a little outline from a Keynote presentation and that the style (either paragraph or character, I'm not sure which) of the pasted bit confused Pages. Just highlight the [potential] problem area and choose "Normal" from the drop-down "Choose a character style" button, then for good measure choose "Normal" from the drop-down "Choose a paragraph style" button. Breathe a sigh of relief.

Crystal Report error exporting to Word

My company recently deployed a Microsoft Security Patch to our workstations that's causing a problem with Crystal Reports. When exporting a Crystal report to a Word file (from a VB 6 application) the following error is generated when opening the file: "You are attempting to open a file that was created in an earlier version of Microsoft Office. This file type is blocked from opening in this version by your registry policy setting."
My company uses Crystal Reports v 8.0.1.0. Is there a more recent release that provides a fix for this error?
Thanks.
David
Edited by: David Verbinski on Nov 5, 2008 10:35 PM

I know 100mb works because I have created word document reports with that size before using the crystal export. Just really big reports. I'm not sure on the exact size because it doesnu2019t work but I know there is more data in the report than the 100MB report which works so it doesnu2019t work on some reports larger than that (don't know the specific size because it doesnu2019t work) sorry for being redundant.
Not sure about a size limitation on an RTF formatted document that is saved as a *.doc (word document).
It's my understanding that exporting to a .doc is the same as exporting to .rtf because the .doc is in .rtf format. I may be wrong but if you change a .rtf extension to a .doc extension, you get the same thing when opening the file in word.
When exporting to RTF format I get the same error, so I believe they are using the same or similar process.
Yes I tried on other machines and different servers and the error only occurs when exporting large documents to word. Small documents work fine.
If there are file constraints in exporting to word, I believe a more distinct error message could be displayed related to the specific error.
No I did not upgrade my pc or software, I developed the report and am running specificly for 11.5 release 2 with service pace 3 installed.
Thanks,

Why am I unable to export to Word, getting an unexpected error

I seem to no longer be able to export a Pages document to Word. I get an unexpected error message. Anybody know how to fix? Is this one of deleting preferences, or something to that effect, to get it to work again? Any help is appreciated.

You updating MS Office shouldn't affect Pages exporting to Word.
I think you should try uninstalling iWork/Pages and install it again.
To uninstall correctly iWork, go to Yvans iDisk :
<http://public.me.com/koenigyvan>
Download :
For_iWork:iWork '09:uninstall iWork '09.zip
Expand the archive and run the script.
Restart the computer and install iWork/Pages again.

Export to Word RTF - Page Server error when over 160 pages exported

We have XIR2 SP2
We have a Crystal report published into this Enterprise which, when all parameters are widened, runs to 190 pages.
The resultant report includes tables
We can export to PDF but the client requires it in Word RTF
We can export to Word RTF Editable - and all 190 pages are produced in the resulting file, but of course the tables are omitted and the result is messy.
So, we need to export to Word RTF where the format is neat and includes the tables.
However, when we try and export more than 160 pages to Word RTF, we receive the following error.
CrystalReportViewer
handleCrystalEvent failed
Unable to retrieve Object.
The Page Server you are trying to connect to is not accessible. Please contact your system administrator.
We have a duplicate environment with an identical configuration, standing by as a failover environment and which points to the same data.This produces the same error, so we don't think it's an installation corruption or failure.
The page server is set to a maximum of 2,000,000 rows, the cache server at 256000 maximum.

Hi Tony F,
Many thanks for coming back on this one. Both Enterprise servers are identical in BO config, Windows 2003 server, but different in hardware.
One has 4 proc and one has 2, one has twice the memory of the other, yet both fail at over 161 pages. Both have their boCMS db's on different servers, both derive the data from different servers.
IIS is the web server. The only common denominator is the actual installation software itself and the person who installed it (me).
On Friday, instead of running the reports in Enterprise/Preview or Infoview (both exhibit the problem) I switched from our default activeX to DHTML, and advanced DHTML. No improvement (Our report wouldn't work with Java, which we never use)
On the suggestion of the SAP/BO support girl, I then SCHEDULED the report for immediate running and chose WordRTF as the format. This works fine.
So on that evidence I suspect a software glitch that is specific to using Infoview to open the report rather than schedule it - the two processes must access the WordRTF translator in different ways.
I'm hoping there is a patch or hotfix that can solve it. Sadly, our users don't have the appetite for the few extra clicks to use the workaround so we're going to have to pursue it with BO unless the forum comes up with an answer - perhaps its something I didn't do properly on installation, or a CMC/CMS setting. We've got 2m row limit on the page server but the report's row count is nothing like that and, anyway, it works if scheduled.
I'm really grateful to you for taking the time to reply, I hope the above answers your question - if I had hair to pull out, I'd be doing just that!
Kind regards
Tony W

After Effects error: Could not launch Adobe Analysis Server (515) ( 25 :: 101) *POSSIBLE FIX*

Hi. Im New to the forums so sorry in advance if i do something incorrect
Since my Purchase of Adobe CS6, I was not able to use dynamic link, or the plugins that required you to connect to the Adobe Analysis Server (3d Tracker, Warp Stablizer ETC) It would always give me the error
After Effects error: Could not launch Adobe Analysis Server (515)
( 25 :: 101)
Or if i would use dynamiclink
The Importer created a generic error
Through hours and hours searching through the internet, and trying possible fixes, i found possible fixes that might help people with this error.
*Before attempting any of these fixes, make sure you reinstall CS6 Using the Adobe Cleaner*
This guide is for Windows OS Only.
If the error still presists, try these options
-If your windows account is not a administrator, Run Adobe After Affects CS6 As Administrator
-Disable your Anti-Virus and your Firewall
I know you have probably heard this over and over again, but this is mainly the cause of the problem. Some Anti-Viruses even when disabled, go into some sort of one eyed open mode, where it still monitors your computer ever so slightly, so you may want to uninstall the anti-virus. As for the firewall,
1) Go to your start menu search "Check Firewall Status"
2)Then to the left of the window, click Turn Windows Firewall on or off
3)Then tick "Turn of Windows Firewall" on BOTH Home or work network and Public Network.
-Close and Uninstall filtering and spyware programs such as Netnanny and Premiere Opinion. This might be using the TCP Ports that is needed for After effects, dynamic link and adobe analysis server to communicate
-Start up Adobe Analysis server Manually. This can be done by going to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS6\Support Files and running Adobe Analysis server.exe as Adminisrator, Then starting Premiere, After effects, etc.
-If the Adobe Cleaner didnt already, Clean your registry. This can be done with free applications such as CCleaner.
If none of those options work, I would suggest a full format and reinstall of windows.
I hope this would help people with this issue.

I'm running the latest version. Just installed yesterday.
You can download and install the latest version (and older versions) of versions 11, 12, and 13 from Adobe right now. That is why I was asking for the exact version number with decimals. Just the other day, someone said they were running the latest version and they weren't aware that CC was even a thing. They were running version 11.0.3 (which isn't even the latest version of CS6 - it's 11.0.4). That's why I always ask.

I'm on a Mac so I don't have anti-malware, or other security software running.
That doesn't seem like a good idea. While there can't be anything technically referred to as a "virus" on the Mac OS (due to the underlying structure), there can be (and are) malware variants out there that do attack machines running the Mac OS. As Apple products have grown in popularity, developers have been creating more and more malware aimed at OSX.
I certainly hope you at least have your firewall running.
captain_astronaut wrote:
I tried launching Premiere yesterday and it crashed.
This points to a much more serious underlying problem. Thousands (if not millions) of people are running Premiere and After Effects on Macs. What sort of error messages did you receive when it crashed?
Try installing version 12 of AE and the previous version of Premiere as well and see if they run.

Possible fix for errors 11503 and 50

Here's a possible fix for Error 11503 and for error 50.
It worked for me and hopefully it will work for you.
I believe this error is caused by the incomplete downloading of either an update to an app. In my case it was caused by closing the lid on my laptop when I was downloading app updates on a very slow internet connection in a hotel.
Anyway, here is what I did that fixed it completely.
Close iTunes.
Go to this folder : /iTunes/Mobile Applications/Downloads
You'll find tmp files there. Drag them out of this folder to a temporary folder on your desktop. The Downloads folder should now be empty.
Restart iTunes.
All should be fine.
If it is, delete the desktop folder with all the temp files.
If it's not, then I can't help further, but that's what worked for me.

Several possible causes from the info you gave
Battery level low - recharge it for at least 4 hours till the full charge sign displays (2 prong icon instead of lightning icon).
Time to Reset the iPod - Press the Menu and center Button for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON, then let go of the buttons.
your hardisk is starting to give problems, hence the skipping and some song refuse to play. - Do a disk diagnostic - follow this post by tt2.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17028567#17028567
If you have updated any sofware application in Windows, then follow this Apple support procedure
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1539
Most likely you have to do all, as the iPod hardisk filesystem would have been corrupted, or else the iPod Reset would bring it to normal operation.
Good Luck!

I have paid for a year subscription, but all the PDF's I attempt to export to Word give me a "Conversion Error" message, citing that the "file's security settings do not allow export." I want a refund. Adobe, please advise. Thank you.

Hi la recruiter,
There are a few types of files that Acrobat can't convert--and PDF files with security applied is one on them. I'm happy to cancel your subscription, if you decide that it's not going to work out for you. Please confirm that you'd like me to proceed with the cancelation, and I'll take care of it right away.
Best,

Pages shows error when trying to export to Word

Today, without doing any updates or making any changes to my MacBook, Pages has decided that it won't export documents to Word or PDF, showing me an error message after attempting to export. I've googled forums to try & find a solution, but all I can find is that it's something to do with Style. The Page documents are in exactly the same style etc as I was working on yesterday when I was successfully able to export documents to Word. Can anyone help please? I need to upload as Word documents for uni.

May this thread be helpful for you?

Pages export corrupts word doc how can I fix this glitch?

In Pages, when I Share and Export the Pages doc to a Word doc and open the Word doc it is corrupted - showing up copy from an older document. The same copy shows up every time. It looks faded out on each page and the actual copy from the Pages document shows up. This happens every time I export to Word and open the Word doc. Does anyone know how to fix this glitch?

A glitch I haven't heard about before. Are you sure that you are not opening the old doc every time and have saved the new some where else on the computer?

Export to Excel Error in SQL Server 2014 Report Builder/Viewer

Hi,
I am using the 2014 version of ReportViewer in a WinForm to display an RDL report.
The report was originally created in Report Builder 2.0 (SQL 2008 R2), but has since been edited in Report Builder 3.0 (SQL 2014).
The report loads and displays OK, and even exports to Word and PDF. But when exporting to Excel and then opening the Excel document, the following error occurs:
"We found a problem with some content in <filename>. Do you want us to try and recover as much as we can? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes."
If you click Yes, then a second message appears:
"Removed Part: /xl/styles.xml part. (Styles)
Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml part"
The Excel document then opens, and the data is there, but there is no formatting (no border columns, colours, bolds etc.)
The three interesting things are:
- When exported from SQL 2008 R2 Report Builder 3.0, which exports to .xsl instead of .xslx, it works
- A brand new report created in 2014 Report Builder 3.0 exports to .xslx great
- In Report Builder 2014, I stripped everything back and removed all rows and columns so the original table in the report only has one empty row and column it the export still errors - it is only by removing the original table and creating a brand new table
that export works OK
It appears to be a problem with the tablix, but ideally we don't want to have to recreate our reports from scratch to fix this issue.
Has anyone come across an issue like this before, and know of any potential resolutions to it?
Thank you.

Hello,
Based on your description, you render a report originally created in Report Builder 2.0 (SQL 2008 R2) and export the report to excel with format of Excel 2007-2010.
Edit the report in Report Builder will not upgrader the report. In that case the report still with SSRS 2008 R2 RDL schema. Please try to upgrade the report by open the report in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) and then try again.
If you don’t want to upgrade the report, please try to export the report
with Excel 2003 rendering extension and check if the issue persists.
The SQL Server 2014 and SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services Excel rendering extension renders a report to the native format of Microsoft Excel 2007-2010 with .xlsx as file extension. Only the Excel rendering extension is available by default.
You must update the Reporting Services configuration files to make the Excel 2003 rendering extension available.
For example, changing the value of Visible to
true in the following line in the RSReportServer.config:
<Extension Name="EXCEL" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ExcelRenderer.ExcelRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ExcelRendering"
Visible="true"/>
