File, Place only works with PDF files...why?

I create documents in Mac Pages that I want to then create an interactive PDF (mainly navigation). I am using the demo copy of Indesign to see if it fits the bill.
The mac pages doocument is a fully formated and ready for export to a static PDF. As a test, I took a few pages of it and exported it to pdf, word and rtf.
The only file format that InDesign would import/place is PDF (pages, word and rtf were all grayed out and could not be selected via ID place).
I had hoped that ID would inport/place pages directly, but I cannot seem to get it to import any format other than PDF.
I tried some other .doc files (actaully created with WORD) and they were selectable but only imported the table of contents (no red arrow an lower right of text box to continue place).
Any suggestions?
thanks
bob

ID is certainly capable of placing RTF as well as native Word files (DOC and DOCX). What you're seeing is quite unusual.
Try trashing your preferences.
For the other DOC files, you need to hold down the shift key when click the page to place them.

Hello,
Did you check the fulltext log files for more details about the errors. If the filter isn’t working, there should be errors in the error log file.
The following thread is about similar issue, please refer to:

Working with .pdf files and JAVA

Hi,
does anyone have an answer to how I can find more information on .pdf files?
I would like to convert .pdf files to textfiles and/or xml files. I can not find it in the j2se Edition, and someone told me it can be found in the j2ee edition, but I can not find anything there either. Please help..
thanks,
R.

thanks for your reply. What tools do you mean? I know lots of tools for converting text to a .pdf file, but no tools for the other direction. There is an API available (commercial), that lets you work with PDF in JAVA, but i am interesting in the other possibilities.
Regards

Custom service only working with one file, not multiple ones

Hi,
I created a service in which I can resize selected images through photoshop and format them for the web. I was able to successfully place this into a contextualized menu, which is awesome for me.
However, when I select a group of files in the finder, secondary click, and run the service, the action only completes the first file. The other files remain open in photoshop (they do not get resized, or saved).
What am I doing wrong?
My service workflow looks like this:
Service recieves selected "image files" in "any application"
Save for Web:
save to: "a web folder I made for this practice"
use "Adobe photoshop CS
type: jpeg
constrain size to 800 X 800
Then the second part of the workflow is"Make names Web-Friendly.
I found these plugins on Apples download page, called "save for web 2.5"
Any help would be great.
Thanks!

where i said one file.. i mean one file tipe ex: .M2T .jpg .mp4 etc

Hyperlinks from converted excel file are not working after pdf file is moved

I have created a pdf file from an excel file that has hyperlinks in it. The hyperlinks work fine if the files are all kept in the same exact location as the time they were created. Once the files are moved (i.e. emailed to another user) the hyperlinks no longer work. An error message pops up that the file can not be found. Is there a setting or something that I'm missing in acrobat that allows for the files to be moved, so that the hyperlinks still function properly, after creation

No settings adjustments.
The issue is that links, once made, have a specific path (as shown when you view the link's text string).
When you email the files the person who recieves the email and downloads the attachments would have to have the same layout of files/folders you have.
Without that links are "broken"
You email a zip file that, when extracted, would create the folders/files in the required layout to reflect what you have.
Be well...

My guess is that you are using the ObjectFile loader, which is for a (don't remember which application) object (.obj) file, rather than using a 3ds loader, which would be for loading a .3ds file.
You might want to go to this page: http://www.j3d.org/utilities/loaders.html and download the correct loader.

File does not begin with '%pdf' error with adobe reader 10.1.5 onwards

In our web application we are using activePDF toolkit (3rd party component) to fill up carrier forms on the fly which are PDF files.
The output file processed by the above library works fine when opened with adobe reader 8, 9 and10 on end user’s browser (IE); however, it gives below error when opening with adobe reader 11.
Till now, we have tried different settings at IIS level, Internet explorer e.t.c. suggested on different internet posts. However, we are still facing the problem.
While analyzing this we have come across following link
http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-error-1015-11001-update.html
According to this adobe 10.1.5 onward file should only start with "%pdf". If file start with other than this we get file corrupted message.
Before we can communicate this message to client we want to confirm this for experts. Please let me know my assumption is right?

Rahti - i'm having the same issue but I not familiar with the steps outlined in the Adobe link below
http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-error-1015-11001-update.html
Would you be able to help with how I can navigate to this on my PC to correct it for me.
Thanks.

Will file converting pdf file to excel work with Adobe Reader 10.1, Windows 7 platform?

Will file converting pdf file to excel work with Adobe Reader 10.1, Windows 7 platform? It shows that it is available for purchase but does it perform? Will this work only with Reader XI? Is the conversion done on-line?

Moved to Adobe ExportPDF.
The file is uploaded to the web for conversion. You can manually upload pdfs for conversion with your web browser and/or with Reader 10.1.

I have configured PDF Genrataor in LiveCycle 2.5. When I place a folder (which has doc file in it) in the IN folder..I expect the OUT to contain same folder (with pdf file in it), But it does not happen.

I have configured PDF Genrataor in LiveCycle 2.5. I have configured my watchedfolder endpoints.
When I place a folder (which has doc file in it) in the IN folder..I expect the OUT to contain same folder (with pdf file in it), But it does not happen. What I see in in the OUT folder I see a pdf file with the foldername and pdf extension....
Can anyone suggest.......

Why do we have to install 2 add ins for something that should be built in? Please add this to the next version or an update to this one even. We should see the full path of a bookmark when we search for it. Show Parent Folder alone isn't enough if you have sub folders, so I installed Go Parent Folder as well in case of sub folders.

Hi Eidda,
This may because the attachment is a winmail.dat file. I would recommend taking a look at the article below for more information. Note: the article is written for OS X mail, but does also apply to this situation.

Unzip.vi only works with 1-internal file, error2 with multiple even in raw form.

I've attempted to use the LabView unzip tool with several different meathods & I can only get it to work when there's only one file in the zip file. Multiple files continually cause an error in the VI, even when using raw LabView example code/tools. The first file does get unzipped in the specified folder before the error. Error 2 occurred at System Exec.vi. Command was "touch 08131333062007 "Chamber 1.ted"",LabVIEW: Memory is full.

Thanks for you response Juan & while this gives me some insight as to where the error is occurring it doesn't solve my problem. You can use the NI provided "Zip Tool.vi" to zip some files & then start a new blank VI & drop in the unzip tool & do nothing with it & run the Untiltled VI like that & it'll prompt for the file & as soon as you select the file...."Error 2", you can even double-click the unzip from the block diagram & use it that way. I did this as a test to verify that what I'm doing wasn't causing the problem. My actual code uses the "File Dialog Express VI" in a flat sequence to first determine the zip file then the unzip-to location then runs the unzip function. I even get folders if zipped but only one file, no error if there's only one file, the error only occurs with multiple files.
It appears to be an access issue as if it gets the first file & then trys to re-access for the next. I could handle this if it had functions to close the reference but it doesn't. I did try to take the preview, turn it into an array, run it through a for-loop but there's no way to specify a specific file w/in a zip file.
Any thoughts?

File, Place only works with PDF files...why?
