Exported PDF from inDesign crashes the IE browser every time?

Hi all,
I'm running inDesign CC, I successfully export my small PDF (4 pages) 500kb, and make a link to it on a webpage (simple <a href link>), but for some reason when the file loads in the browser it crashes IE (IE 10) everytime I click on it (well it opens the first page and then just freezes, eventually after about 5 mins I get an error "There was a error processing a page. A fileI/O error occured).
The PDF loads fine in all other browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, apart from IE.)
Also I'm on Windows 7.
Any help would be great

Thanks; received it.
Unfortunately I do not have any problems to open the PDF in IE10 on Windows 7; it opens instantly, and I can scroll up and down without the slightest hitch.
Can you try if the problem goes away if your set IE10 to Compatibility View?  See http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/use-compatibility-view#ie=ie-10-win-7

  • How can I stop Firefox from making itself the default browser every time it upgrades?

    Every time there's a new version of firefox, it updates automatically, but it changes the windows file type settings so that firefox is now the default browser.
    I have gone to tools > options > advanced and cleared the "Always check to see if firefox is the default browser" checkbox. It's not an issue on startup, only on upgrade.
    This happens every time there's a new version of firefox.

    Unfortunately the "web browser" I want to use is just a compiled script that examines the URL and then launches the proper browser to open it (because some pages are not standards compliant and work better in a certain browser). It does not appear in the default web browser list, but when I go to Tools > Folder Options > File Types, I can edit the firefox URL, URL http and URL https types and then it will work correctly until the next firefox upgrade.

  • I'm attempting to create a pdf from InDesign and the Illustrator image does not appear properly.

    I'm attempting to create a pdf from InDesign and the Illustrator logo does not appear properly. The logo has a light blue color background with a black to white gradiant over it with a multiply designation set at 100%.  I flattened the logo in illustrator before importing into InDesign. When the pdf is created, the blue background of the logo drops out and the only thing showing is the graduated screen of black. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

    Thanks for your reply Peter,
    I'm on Mac OSX (10.5.8) using Acrobat 7 Professional and Acrobat 
    Reader 9 to view the pdf. I created it by exporting. Attached is a 
    screen capture of the letterhead. Since I posted, I sent a test pdf to 
    my partner's computer eventhough it didn't look right on my system and 
    she said it looked fine to her. I've restarted my computer and tried 
    again and still get the same results.
    Thanks for your help,

  • Font issue in exported PDF from indesign

    Font issue in exported PDF from indesign:
    In Indesign file we have kept a sentence in “Univers LT Std” (San serif font) with all caps style that was orginally in lower case. Refer below
    When we selected the sentence in exported PDF some of the characters are not selected. Refer below.
    If we enable “create tagged PDF“ in export PDF setting, then the problem is solved. Refer below.
    Can you please check why this problem happened? In another project also we have faced this same problem but different font “Frutiger LT Std” with all caps style. Here also same San serif font. Please check and advise to solve this issue permanently.

    Without tags a PDF is a silly amount of letters, images and lines, with tags all itams a kept in their semantic context. So work with tags as it is the only way to get correct selections and export to other file types like Word DOCX.
    Without tags InDesign reads from left to right from top to bottom and the font geometry might influence the correct order of letters.
    Why should anyone work without tags today? If you open a tagged PDF in Acrobat DC it is much faster than without tags.

  • Export PDF from InDesign Book

    Hi, I have a customer that has huge problems to export PDFs from InDesign Books. He has books with many documents with a total amount of 500-700 pages, when he try to export a PDF InDesign quit unexpectedly. I wrote a script for him that export the PDF from the book without the progress bar, and sometimes it solves the problem but sometimes not, and I have a "out of memory" message. He must export multiple PDF from the same book and then merge those PDF with Acrobat but he has also interactivity sometimes and it's a nightmare to merge PDFs with interactive objects and bookmarks.  Someone of you have experienced the same problem (and maybe has a solution)?  Thank you

    It seems that InDesign saturate the available RAM during the operation of gathering information before start to export, if I restart InDesign each time and export a selection of documents it works. I'm exporting now two separate PDF and it seems to work, but again only if I close and restart InDesign before exporting, I'm working on an iMac with an Intel 2.93 GHz i7 and a total of 8 GB RAM.

  • Can't Choose Page Range when Exporting PDF from InDesign

    Hi!  Ever since I upgraded to CS6 via your subscription, I can't choose a page-range when exporting to PDF from InDesign (8.0.1).  Here's a video demonstration of the problem so you can see the bug in action:  http://screencast.com/t/kYR1ACtNi
    Are you aware of this bug?  If it's not a bug, how do I fix it?

    Alternate layouts are used for things like horizontal and vertical orientations of the same layout for use on tablets. I suspect there's some coverage in the Help files -- being a print guy I don't mess with them.
    It may be that you only have one layout and ID just shows you that one inthe dropdown. I can't recall that I ever used the dropdown to try to select the range -- I always just type what I need in the field.

  • Problem with exporting PDF from Indesign CS6

    Hi,
    I recently registered & installed CS6 on my computer (Last week!), and I seem to have problems with Indesign, which is the main reason for my buying the product.
    The problem is that whenever I try to save & export a file as PDF from Indesign I get an error message (See attached file).
    The files are saved with 0KB size, and so the Acrobat reader can't open them for preview.
    This really interrupts my work, and backs up the entire comapny schedule.
    I already tried updating, and uninstalling&re-installing the suite - but no luck.
    Any help would be appreciated, and we need it ASAP.
    Thanks in advance,

    Without proper system info and details about what PDF settings you actually used and how and where you save your files, nobody can say anything. You could simply be doing something silly like using PDF/A, but trying to enforce high-res pictures or whatever. In any case, ask in the ID forum.

  • Failure to fully export pdf from InDesign CS2 (application unexpectedly quits)

    I found a TechNote detailing such an issue when you save or export a PDF after the Adobe application has been left idle for several days. However, when I tried both suggested solutions, I was unable to fix the problem. Some say it may be that I have a corrupt file, but the file saves normally and shows no signs of error.
    When I try to export a file as a PDF file from InDesign CS2, I don't get an error message when I save the file. I only receive an error message when I try to open the resulting PDF file which has not been fully processed.
    The error message I see is as follows:
    * Exporting a PDF file from InDesign CS2: The file appears to save without error, but when I open the file with Acrobat I see the error "Acrobat could not open '[file name]' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document to Adobe PDF."
    Thus, I tried solution 1: upgrading my Mac to Mac OS X v10.5. That didn't work.
    Then I tried solution 2: save the file, and then restart the application. That also did not work.
    The TechNote goes into further detail, explaining:
    "When you save or export PDF files from Photoshop CS2, Acrobat 7, Illustrator CS2, or InDesign CS2, the application must reference the TemporaryItems file located in /tmp/501. Prior to Mac OS X.v10.4, Mac OS X regularly deleted files in the /tmp folder that had not been used or modified within a certain period (approximately two or three days). If an Adobe application is running but unused for several days, Mac OS X prior to version v10.4, would delete the TemporaryItems file. When you save or export a file as PDF, the Adobe application attempts to reference the no-longer existing TemporaryItems file which results in errors or faulty PDF creation.
    When you restarting the Adobe application and then save or export a PDF, the application rebuilds the TemporaryItems file."
    Does anyone have any other suggestions for a solution to my query?

    Similar to you, I've just posted the following in the InDesign section:
    Problems writing pdf from InDesign CS2
    Hello everyone, I've just gone and bought myself a new 2.4ghz iMac and done all of the updates for Tiger so I'm now running 10.4.11. InDesign CS2 is version 4.0.5.
    I have a simple A4 document with 3 placed images which is an updated version of many done previously. I've never had any trouble writing pdf's from them before until tonight on my new Mac. It seems to get about half way through and InDesign quits.
    If I print to a pdf file then it's okay, but a bit long winded when you get used to exporting from InDesign.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • How to stop this list from reverting to the short version every time I click on an item?

    I'm not sure where I should post this to get a response so I'll try here.
    Every time I make the list of topics longer, and then click on a topic to read it, then click back to the main list, I get sent back to the first (short) list of topics in the forum instead of the longer list I was looking at.
    What am I doing wrong?

    This is the place.

    Are you clicking the "More" button to do this? Try using the "Discussions" tab instead, and click the "Set as default tab" option. I never use the overview tab.
    .. and another thing: why can I no longer edit my own question, not even 10 seconds after I've posted it, if I momentarily go back to the main list and then return to my question?
    Did you check the upper right corner? The first post of a thread is "special". You can't edit it or report it from the normal location. You can report the thread via the upper right link. I think you can edit from there too.

  • Exported PDFs from InDesign will not print

    Our Marketing Manager is using Adobe InDesign and exports her documents to PDF. These PDFs won't print in any of our printers in the office. It spools and then gets stuck and it actually makes our HP Coloured Laser Printer throw an error (error 79) and we'll have to restart the printer due to this error. We can print other documents and other PDFs in the printer so we know it's not a printer driver issue. In fact, we have isolated the problem to only PDFs exported from InDesign. Even if we create a blank document or add just text from InDesign and export it to PDF it still won't print. Really odd.

    How exactly are you trying to print those PDF files to the HP printers? From Adobe Reader? From Adobe Acrobat? Or are you just somehow sending them to the printer itself?
    Typical HP and other desktop printers either don't directly support PDF printing or only support subsets of PDF.
    Assuming you haven't tried this already, try printing the PDF to your printer from either Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader.

  • Exported pdf from indesign drops punctuation when printed from adobe reader

    The pdf prints fine when printed from acrobat pro, but depending on the export pdf settings from indesign, it will drop most numbers and punctuation when printed from adobe reader.

    Is Adobe Reader installed on the same computer Adobe Acrobat is?

  • Pictures lost when exporting pdf from Indesign.

    Hey
    I have a problem with exporting an Indesign CS4 document into pdf. In the pdf-file all pictures turn into grey boxes.
    All photos is cmyk and saved as eps-format.
    What is wrong?
    Hope someone can help.

    Subject line says you're *exporting* PDF. Are you exporting or printing to the Adobe PDF printer? Or do you mean that Acrobat is displaying perfectly good pictures as gray boxes (and you verified this by looking at the same PDF on a different machine)?
    In my Acrobat 7 (haven't installed 9 yet) I can turn off display of large pictures in Preferences > Page Display > Display large images. If this is unchecked, I can make at least some of my pictures display as gray boxes.

  • Export PDF from InDesign -- SIze mismatch

    We are facing a strange problem of like size mismatch in INDD and  Exported PDF. Say I have a INDD document of height 5.456 inch and 6.758  inch and when we are exporting it to PDF with High Quality Print then  PDF size will show 5.45 inch x 6.75 inch.
    Any preference is required to get the exact size, I know this size is  ignorable but we have a system in place which requires exact size in  PDF.

    But if you open the Crop Pages, in Acrobat, from the Pages Navigation Panel, it will show the size as 5.456 x 6.758

  • Exporting PDF from InDesign with check boxes & name fields

    We are a high production print shop and do most of our proofing via PDF. We email the customer a PDF and they print it out, show it to their customer, mark changes, and fax it back to us. We'd like to start letting the customers email their proofs back to us with a check box marked for either OK or Changes Needed, as well as a place for a name and date.
    It appears that InDesign will not do this natively. I can make Acrobat do this, no problem. What I tried to do was to take a PDF of the "Proof OK" box with the check boxes and form fields and drop it into InDesign in hopes that the embedded PDF would hold it's interactive capabilities. It does not.
    Is there a way to make this work like I need without a bunch of scripting in a language I don't know well? Taking the hundred or so proofs each day and manually making them interactive PDFs is not really an option for obvious time reasons.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    This can't be done in ID, but I'd bet they can help you on the Acrobat Scripting forum. It shouldn't be too hard to do a script that only adds approval checkboxes and sets the document for commenting.

  • Problems exporting pdf from indesign CS4

    when I export a pdf using flattening the pdf contains lines (1 pixel) that contain 1-2% more black. The image used in the file (see below) is a transparant psd on a gradient.
    Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
    Thank you
    Jeroen

    Just because a printer demands flattened transparency in PDF files they accept, doesn't mean that it is proper practice. Flattened transparency and lack of full color management requires what is effectively a highly device dependent PDF file where you know exactly what the device's color space and resolution are at the time you perform the transparency flattening. As far as we are concerned, any print service provider that refuses a properly created PDF file with live transparency and color management is a print provider, where the word service is definitely not appropriate. Such printers would rather blame you, the customer, for problems as opposed to using their professional skills and provide service to you.
    Although Adobe is a vendor member of the Ghent PDF Workgroup (in fact, I am Adobe's representative to that group), Adobe does not endorse use of its PDF/X Plus standards and settings until such time such standards and settings are based on PDF/X-4. Such a change is supposed to occur within the next year.
    In terms of the actual artifacts you are seeing, do the same artifacts show when you print to a local PostScript printer?
    What do you see and how does it print if you export using the PDF/X-4 settings?
    And finally, to respond to Peter Spier's comment, I highly doubt that TIFF or PSD would make any difference in theory (although I have learned that you can't always count on theory ).
