FM 6.0 w/CS 3.x :: Missing Footers/Chapter Numbers in PDFs

Hi all,
I've done some poking around and didn't find anything specifically addressing this, so hopefully it's not a case of me missing the obvious.
I work at a company where we use FM 6.0 to produce documentation (sometimes directly through FM, other times through a series of scripts that produce MIF that is fed through FM to produce output).
What has been happening more frequently is that after generating a PDF (either through "Save As (pdf)" or by printing to the Adobe Printer to generate a .ps file and then distilling that to a .pdf), many of the footers will fail to appear in the final document.
Sometimes switching from trying to save directly to a PDF to distilling the final works; othertimes the reverse is true.
I'm not sure if perhaps this is related to having an older version of FM, or what the problem might be.
If anyone has any insight, it'd be much appreciated.
Thanks for reading,
PM

PM,
With FM6 (and earlier versions), you definitely should not be using
the Save As PDF feature It was buggy and for a more detailed tome on
this, see the note by Dov Isaacs at:
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.ef52ecf
If the text is "dropping out" and not being clipped by an incorrect
output sheet size, then there is a MS hotfix that might alleviate the
problem. See the posting at the top of the Forum on PDF text drop out
and FNTCACHE.DAT issues being resolved:

    The activated fonts are not the same version as those in the PDF. If you use Type>Find Font and replace the fonts with ones from your computer does it work?

    You are posting to fellow users.  To request features or post feedback to Apple you may use the menu item (in Numbers) "Numbers > Provide Numbers Feedback":
    Oh.  You may be jumping ahead as Numbers 3.0 was just release last week.  Hopefully it doesn't really two more major version release to fix all this

  • Missing image when export to pdf & in High Quality Display

    Customer sent me this file so I have no history. Latest version of InDesign. There are a few images that when I select the box it does not show it as linked, but there is an image there. These same images/boxes disappear when I select View>High Quality Display & they are also missing when I make a pdf. Many other images are linked and work fine. What's going on with these other images/boxes? Embedded maybe? I don't have experience with embedded images, how do I get them to show when making a pdf?

    Is this what your looking for Peter?

  • How do I reattach missing AI files using a PDF document

    Thanks in advance for reading this!
    I am converting an InDesign document to ePub and mobi. The document also exists as a PDF file (which, as you may know, can not be converted effectively to ePub).
    The InDesign file has been supplied to me with missing .ai links for charts and graphs. There are lo-res  images in their places.
    I could manually import individual charts from the PDF file  into Illustrator, but there are dozens of them and relinking will be a huge job as it is. Any suggestions on how to transform all charts and graphs in the PDF file to .ai files OR import them directly into InDesign?
    Many thanks

    You print to the Adobe PDF printer. AA X was substantially modified to meet the newer needs of OFFICE 2007 and 2010, making PDF Maker incompatible with OFFICE 2003. You should still be able to print just fine, but the features you may want will not be available unless you upgrade MS too.

  • Where are the many missing features in Numbers found?

    The more that I use Numbers the less likely that I will ever go through the motions of trying to get Numbers to do enough of the things that have to be done in order for my income tax program to work. Like in another post I have some of my smaller tax forms to say that they are too big to be imported. There seems to be too many missing features to do a useful job.
    This leaves trying to use Numbers to handle new small, small, small spreadsheets. At the present times I have little problem setting up a format for a cell providing the formatting is available. In Excel the easiest way to copy a format to a new cell is to use format painter. Many time copy/paste will work. But copy/paste will move the formula also. I have not been able to find a way to do this with Numbers.
    So far the sliders feature is the one feature that interests me enough to try to use Numbers in the real work handling portion of my business. Many things I want to do either I can't find out how to do them or there are too many added keystrokes needed compared to Excel to make me want to do a spreadsheet in Numbers.
    Since the majority of my spreadsheets do not use a header row or header column I have to get that turned off. Tax sheets have a lot of blank spaces to start things out & normally will be different than the next sheet.
    I used a lot of cell/range names as well as individual cells. I use 450+ cell names in my main Form 1040, A,B,D,NE,IA page. That still leaves me needing to know the row/column designation most of the time. I cannot find where that information is displayed in Numbers.
    I keep looking, but generally do not find the needed feature that I need. Many like the cell designation is so basic. Being able to use the arrow keys to move to a cell for inclusion in a formula is another one that I am unable to do. Using the help files do not come close to answering any question that I have with Numbers. Where is the Numbers, "Missing Manual?" I need what I don't have & may not be made at the current time.
    Like Pages 1.0, Numbers 1.0 doesn’t seem ready for prime time use. There are too many missing features be a very complete spreadsheet. Some I probably can’t find, some probably are not there.
    I need help.

    In the meanwhile, you can continue to use these features by accessing the previous versions of the iWork applications which remain installed on your Mac. The previous versions can be found in Applications > iWork ’09.Reverting documents created in the new iWork for Mac applications to the previous version’s file formatNew or existing documents you open in the new versions of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote use the new unified file format. These files can’t be opened in the previous versions of the iWork applications. To revert the document file format to the previous version, you can do one of the following:
    Documents that you haven't edited can be reverted to the iWork ’09 version by selecting File > Revert To.
    If you have edited the document and want to preserve the edits, you can save it as an iWork ’09 document by selecting File > Export To, then choosing Pages ’09, Numbers ’09, or Keynote ’09.

  • Missing Characters in Frame Generated PDFs

    I had an odd thing happen, that I thought I'd pass on. I was working on
    my Mac to generate some statistical output. I printed out the results to
    pdf, imported the results in to a Frame 8 document as a referenced
    graphic. I then saved as a PDF with all fonts embedded. When viewing the
    resulting pdf, two of the statistical charts had missing characters.
    They just were not there. The two pdfs had been generated (accidentally)
    using the smallest pdf file setting in Distiller 9. The other
    problem-free charts had with all the fonts embedded made it through the
    workflow perfectly. Regenerating the charts as pdfs with all fonts
    embedded cured the problem with the final pdf.
    Who would have thought that pdfs with non-embedded fonts would have
    caused a problem down the line?
    ...Mike

    Mike,
    It's the same issue as with EPS with non-embedded fonts. FM's PDF
    importing routine converts the PDF to an EPS for internal use, so
    you're getting a PDF > EPS > PDF conversion taking place in the
    workflow. Drop a font and something goes awry.

  • Missing fonts in Numbers on iPad

    Every time, when I open files in Numbers I see notification, that few fonts is missing. Problem appears when I update IOS from IOS6 to that $^&^&* IOS7. Numbers updated to last version. After updating from IOS7 to IOS8 I still have that problem. To many files and too many sheets - I can't spend time to change fonts in all files. Hel me, fhat I can do?
    Thank you!
    iPad 2, IOS 8.0.2 Numbers - last version.

    Hi Garry,
    You may get more help if you post this question in the iPad forum.
    Perhaps you could repost your question here: Using iPad or if you like, I can ask the Hosts to move this thread to that forum.

  • Missing words and lines in PDF

    Platform/tools:
    Windows XP Pro SP 2 or later
    FrameMaker 7.2
    Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional (part of CS3)
    Adobe PDF print driver setting: High Quality Print, black and white (rather than color)
    When I create a PDF from FrameMaker, my process is to print to a PS file, then distill separately to create the PDF. This all used to work fine, but recently, I have the following consistent problem:
    Words and whole lines are missing. It seems as though they are near where I use an italic character format (which is an actual format I've created in FrameMaker, not the kind applied with Ctrl-i). However, that same character format never was a problem before, nor did I have missing text.
    If I take the same files over to my older computer, with FrameMaker 7.1 and Acrobat 7, and print to a PS file and then distill, the PDF file is perfectly fine.
    Perhaps somehow the Adobe PDF driver (and possibly other printer drivers) got corrupted? If so, how can I fix that? I dread thinking that I will have to uninstall and reinstall CS3, since, for some reason, the process of uninstalling takes many hours.
    Or, is there another thing that causes this kind of problem?
    Any help would be so appreciated!

  • Export or "Save As" PDF - missing shapes in final created PDF

    Hello,
    I am using Illustrator CS5.
    I created a brochure with some images, shapes and text with minimal effects (some drop shadow).
    When I export or do a "save as" pdf, four of my shapes do not appear in the created pdf.
    What type of reasons would create missing vector graphic shapes?
    Do I need to flatten my work? If so, what is the best method for this?
    Any guidance would be appreciated.
    thanks,
    Simon

    I figured it out.
    There was a setting in my pdf that had adobe layers on. I turned it off.
    All good now!

  • MISSING TEXT/GRAPHICS WHEN CREATING PDF

    Hello ...
    When I convert FrameMaker files to PDF, text and graphics are missing in the pdf. Sometimes this happens, sometimes not - the pattern seems to be whenever I am working with a large file (1MB or more)or if I have several windows open.
    My temporary work-around is to save the document into PDF 2-5 pages at a time ... but with a 100-page document this becomes very tedious and time-consuming.
    I have 55GB of free space and 2GB of RAM.
    Does anyone know why this might be happening?
    I am using Adobe Acrobat 8.0 with Windows XP.
    Thank you,
    Tina

    Hi Mike ...
    Yes, the graphics are imported by reference.
    But when generating a pdf multiple times from the same file - it's not always the same result. The first attempt may result in some graphics and text not appearing (only several pages may be affected). The second attempt will result in different pages being affected.
    It's not consistent - which really doesn't make sense.
    I have a feeling it's something quirky with my computer - but I wanted to check the forum in case this is a problem with Acrobat 8.0 -before I complain to our IT Dept.

  • WHY are there pages missing in my HTML to PDF conversion?!?

    Hello all~
    upon converting/saving webpages to a PDF file (using the "Convert Webpage to PDF" command), there are pages occasionally missing after the conversion. Sometimes the pages are completely gone & sometimes you can see the pysical page, but it is emply/blank! I've adjustted the settings & such without any success. Please, if anyone can help me, it would be MUCH appreciated!
    Thanks in advance~ Joey

    Greetings~
    I perhaps should have been more specific, as to the particular details surrounding my problem. Actually, "graffity" got me pointing in the right direction. 1st of all, the webpage I was trying to convert to PDF was an email hosted by HotMail. So when I tried to print it using the print icon on my "Command Bar," I would had missing information. Then I noticed a printer icon contained within HotMail. Once I clicked on that icon, it reconfigured the page, whereby I was then able to select the "Convert Webpage to PDF" with the DESIRABLE RESULTS.
    In short, if anyone elst has problems saving ALL THE DATA contained within their HotMail, then you MUST 1st click on the printer icon contained WITHIN HotMail... & then you can either print to Adobe OR Convert Webpage to PDF (providing you have the toolbar add-on.
    Ciao~

  • How do I fix missing fonts linked to a PDF?

    My message reads:  "Missing Font.  Edit the source to apply a different font."  I cannot edit the linked PDF's fonts or type (it's flattened).  I can't export my InDesign file or make a booklet if I have these errors of missing fonts.  Anyone know of a solution??

    Possible that the fonts are not embedded in supplied content.
    You should check all your content for embedded fonts.

  • Missing add-on Convert to pdf in IE10 and Adobe Acrobat XI

    Hello,
    I have Windows 8 with Adobe Acrobat XI Pro installed but I cannot find the internet explorer 10 "adds-on" (nor the icon on the IE bar) for the "Convert to pdf file" anymore.
    I think the problem originated when I installed Creative Suite CS3 and it had Acrobat 8 in it. I installed it too fast and didn't realize it was included. It overtook some of the features of XI Pro, so I uninstalled Acrobat 8 and installed Adobe Acrobat XI Pro again to see if the problem could get solved.
    Worse. With both Acrobat 8 and XI installed I still saw the adds-on but they were "unavailable", or enabled but couldn't find the icon to use the function. Now I can't even find the Adds-on in the tools menu of IE to see if they could be enabled. They are simply not there anymore.This is the main feature that I use for my work and I would be grateful if someone would give me a hint or where to download the missing element.
    Thank you very much.
