Exporting to PDF right hand text trunctation when using ForceLargerFonts.

Hi,
We are using Crystal Reports Basic .NET 2008 SP0 (10.5.3700.0) under ASP.NET. We have decided to use the PDF printing option instead of ActiveX which works fine except for the font sizing issues. After reading a few articles we resolved the font sizing issue by implementing the registry key ForceLargerFonts.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Business Objects\10.5\Crystal Reports\Export\PDF
"ForceLargerFonts"=dword:00000001
This has solved the problem of font scaling, however a new problem emerged relating to truncation on the right-hand side of textboxes, especially when the fonts are extremely small and the textbox is large (appears that crystal can't calulate the wrapping correctly). As described in this article - [http://ourchiwai.blogspot.com/2009/03/crystal-report-xi-service-packs-5-solve.html|http://ourchiwai.blogspot.com/2009/03/crystal-report-xi-service-packs-5-solve.html]
We located an apparant fix in Crystal XI SP5 using these keys
"UsePrecisePositioningForText"=dword:00000001
"TruncationAdjustment"=dword:00000002
however I can't seem to see any reference for this fix in Crystal Basic 2008. Does anyone know if this fix is available in the Crystal Basic 2008 .NET version?
Thanks
Glenn

I cannot open pdf files from one supplier when using Adobe Reader but I can using another Viewer

I cannot open pdf files from one supplier when using Adobe Reader but I can open it if using Google PDF viewer or another viewer. The Adobe reader gives the error "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired" when I try to open the file. The version of Adobe Reader is 10.1.7, however I have tried other versions and they all fail the same way. I have tested on a number of different PC's in different networks and all fail using Adobe Reader but work using alternate viewer. Also the PC's will open a PDF from any other source.

Newer Reader versions are more strict than older versions (and other PDF viewers). If certain minimum requirements are not met, Reader will tell you that the PDF is damaged. This can happen when a document was created with software that does not adhere to PDF standards, or when the file was damaged during a download or email transmission.
You should contact the creator of these PDFs.

Export as PDF Cuts Off Text

I'm currently on BO Enterprise XI 3.1 FixPack 2.4 When I schedule Crystal Reports to run and export as PDF I'm starting to see that in the PDF, the text fields are cut off at the top, bottom, and right side of the report. So its missing the very top of the text at the top of the report, or on the right side, its cut off. Any assistance would be appreciated.

This question has been answered multiple times, please search before posting.

Thanks for your time!

We are getting right hand side characters truncated for PDF output when Conc Prog is run through EBS.This is the problem.Is it a seeded or custom concurrent program? Does this happen to all requests or specific ones only?
But while saving the file on dektop and printing both left and right hand side characters gets printed well within the margin area.What if you print the same file from the server using the lp command?
What could be the problem here please?Could anyone please share the resolution.
Page size used is: 81/2 x 11 - Letter.What is the printer type/style?
Have you tried different printer?
Also, have you tried to adjust the number of Rows/Columns of this concurrent program?
Please see if (Custom Landscape Reports In PDF Format Print In Portrait Orientation [ID 421358.1]) helps.

PDFs not displaying text properly when going Mac- PC

We have a serious issue all of a sudden where AI files using Futura being converted to PDF are NOT showing up properly when viewed on PCs. This user is running 10.4.11, CS3 and Font Reserve. When she exports to PDF, random letters will be missing from the PDF file. This cost us a LOT of money last week when a file was sent out for printing. If they convert the fonts to outline prior, it works fine.
We didn't have this issue, ever, until the last week or so. As far as any of us know, NOTHING has changed in our environment.
I also had the user try to run the AI file through Distiller instead of "Save As PDF0", and it just errors out each time.
Any ideas?? Font issues are by far my biggest weakness, so it's a royal pain for me to figure out. Although, I don't even know if this is a font issue or not. Help!

>They are just using export to PDF for the files.
From what program? No version of illustrator can "Export" to PDF. They all Save to PDF. This is more than an issue of semantics. If someone says they are "exporting" to PDF they might not be using Illustrator. An Illustrator user would not refer to "exporting" PDFs because that's not something they can do.

Build Quality of Keyboard - right hand side rattles when typing?

I have found the right hand side, particulary top left where the delete key and return key are rattles (louder click) when touch typing?
The right side of the keyboard doesn't appear to be mounted firmly enough and it resonates when the
keys are tapped (right keys only - delete and return) Left keys appear fine
Is this just my S10? In 10 reviews I've read on the internet no one has mentioned this, only complaining about right shift and small keyboard size.

Some people have the same rattle with the keyboard that you have, under the right side is a small room between the harddrive and the keys... solution is to remove the 4 screws under the front and 1 screw inside the ram cover, you can see it exactly in the lenovo videos what to do... you can remove the palmrest and the keys ... simply glue a small piece of tape on the places , so that leave no room to rattle....

How can I show only text edits and not text formatting when using print comments summary?

Acrobat 9.3.0 for Mac.
Here is the scenario: I used the Compare command to see the changes between 2 PDFs. The resulting file some edits are inserts and some are deletions. I want to print a comments summary only showing the text edits. In the Compare Option pane, I select Text and deselect Images, Annotations, Formatting, Headers/Footers, and Backgrounds. Now on the screen I see inserts are highlighted in blue and deletions are marked with sort of a caret and vertical bar symbol. So all looks good at this point. However, when I show the Comments List, I see addtional comments that indicate "Replace - The following text attributes were changed: fill color." Those comments do not appear in the page view unless I check the Formatting check box to show them. With Formatting unchecked, I print a comments summary and all of the "Replace - Fill Color" comments" appear on the resulting comments summary.
I only want to show text edits, not text formatting changes. So questions are:
1. Why, when the Formatting checkbox is unchecked, do the text formatting comments still appear in the comments list when they do not appear on the page display.
2. How can I print only the text content edits and not show the text formatting changes when using Print Comments Summary.

Hi,
You can set ExecuteWithParams as default activity in the task flow then method activity to return total no of rows passing to Router activity if your method has value 0 then call Create insert operation else do directly to page.
Following idea could be your task flow
Execute With param (default) > SetCurrentRowWithKey > GetTotalNoOfRows (VOImpl Method)
|
v
Router
1. If pageFlowScope outcome is 0 then call CreateInsert > MyPage
2. if pageFlowScope outcome > 0 then MyPage
hope it helps,

Text "disappears" when using text box tool

We are running Adobe Acrobat Standard vers. 7.0.9 inside Thomson Corporation's GoFileRoom vers. 6.0. When using the text box tool to add comments to a pdf, the text within the text box "takes on" the color of the background of the box, making it seem that the text has disappeared. The only way to see the text is to edit the text box and change the font color OR to view the contents of the text box in the Comments section. How do I resolve this? Would appreciate any help.

I am having the same problem. Both with text boxes and text in the actual document. Do you think it is GoFileRoom related? I never made the connection but I wouldn't be surprised. It seems worse when different versions of Adobe are used. Some have ver 7 and other ver 8 but we are all using GFR.
Have you had any help?

How do I export a PDF to an image I can use on Facebook?

how do I export a pdf picture to facebook?

Hi 56048,
I believe that Facebook accepts images in .jpg, .jpeg, .png, or .gif format. You could use either Acrobat or the ExportPDF online service to save your PDF file in an image format that Facebook supports.
If you don't have Acrobat, you can download a free 30-day trial from www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.
If you're interested in ExportPDF, you can read more that it here: https://cloud.acrobat.com.
Please let us know if you have further questions.
Best,

FW: Caret Location Right Justified for LI when using HTMLEditorKit

It appears that when using the HTMLEditorKit and inserting any sort of list
item (ordered list or unordered list) into a view (while in edit mode), the
caret is initially *---------| right justified with respect to the bullet
image. If the identical html is loaded all at once however the caret is *-|
left justified with respect to the bullet image. Is this a bug in
HTMLEditorKit?

Sure it is. In this special case IBM's JDK does a better job (at least under Linux).
Generally I'm totally disappointed by the whole HTML package. I've been trying to implement a really primitive WYSIWIG-HTML-editor which understands , <ul>, <h1> , and <a href>. It is a nightmare!
- Dynamically modifying the document's structure (e.g., by making a <li> out of a ) works more or less, but you have absolutely no control over caret movement, and different JDK's make it differently!
- The HTMLDocument inserts crude "extra-tags" (e.g., those <p-implied>'s. You never know exactly the structure of your document, and after a long debugging session you notice that the HTMLDocument was bluntly inserting yet another artificial element you did not specify. No docs at all what's going on.
- It is nearly unbelievable how complicated so simple things like
are internally modelled.
- Frankly spoken: The whole document model sucks. Has to be harmonized with XML, DOM, JDOM, and all those nice new technologies where Java does a good job (unless you need a GUI...)
If anybody has an idea to make it properly -> pls let me know
thx

When I export to PDF, the black text is printing in full color instead of just black

I have Pages 09 (version 4.0.5). I am exporting a document to PDF and emailing it to a copy shop for printing. The document has a color cover, and 36 pages of black text inside. The copy shop is telling me that the pages with black text are printing as color pages instead of black and white pages. I need to figure out how to get them to print black to keep costs down. Is this a problem with my file, with the PDF export, or with their print settings?
Things I've tried...
1. Using the color palette, I have switched to the color sliders mode and changed all the text to CMYK with 100% black and 0% everything else. I have also tried changing it to grayscale with 0% brightness. Neither of these seemed to have an effect.
2. I downloaded the trial version of Adobe Acrobat Pro and converted the PDF to grayscale. This worked, but it's only a temporary solution.
Any other ideas?

Peter,
It's a pretty safe assumption that your average Joe isn't using text styles, but in this case you're talking to a guy who has worked as both a prepress technician and a graphic designer in a former life. I just don't have all the software of the trade at this point in my life. If I did, I sure wouldn't be messing with Pages and Preview. Although overall I'm pretty impressed with them, considering what they are.
Anyway, I am using text styles and I made sure to update them all. The PDF still came out with the rich black color. I have a feeling Pages' PDF exporter automatically converts all black to that four-color rich black on the assumption that you'll want it. I wouldn't care, especially since I'm just printing at a copy shop with no special quality requirements, except that we're printing hundreds of these things every week, and the full color prints more than double the cost.
Thanks for the help, guys! It looks like filtering the PDF through Preview will do the trick. If anybody can confirm a way to do this directly in Pages, I would appreciate not having to go through the extra steps.

Pages export to PDF not showing text

I've created a fairly basic document and have exported it to a pdf document. when i view it in google docs, it works fine.
more importantly, when the pdf is viewed in acrobat, the black text seemingly turns white and becomes "invisible". i know the text is there because i can "right click" on the area and it'll find the words. my question is?
why will the pdf render properly in google docs but not acrobat reader??!
thanks,
nick

Which fonts have you used and could you give a better description of the contents of the file.
If you like click on my blue name and send me the file, I'll see if I can spot the problem.

Text Missing when using PDF Convert but OK when using print PDF

I am using Acrobat Pro 9 in Wnidows 7 and Microsoft Publisher 2003.
When I use the CONVERT command to create a PDF - it is missing all of the text on the master page.
If I create the PDF with the PRINT command - everything is OK.
PS: The same Publisher File on another computer using Acrobat Pro 8 works fine - CONVERT or PRINT and no missing text
I prefer to use convert because sometimes the PRINT command drops some of the hyperlinks.
[email protected]

You're posting in the wrong forum, but you already know that...
In any case, if you're running XP (you didn't supply any info about your environment, which is critical), there's a Microsoft HotFIX patch for PostScript printers such as Acrobat to fix the missing text problem. Do a Google for "Framemaker hotfix missing text" to locate the patch.
