Freehand and converting to pdf problem

for some reason when i try to convert a freehand document to pdf ready for printing im losing an "inline" effect around some of the text.
i've put an example to illustrate
http://simonboard.com/photos/pdf.html
can anyone on these forums help?

Distiller is part of Acrobat Pro and used to set up files for output to an imagesetter.
How are you printing these? Is the printer going to make films for burning plates or is this direct from computer to printer?
If it's direct, as I suspect, then merely save the file as an EPS, then import it into Illustrator to check it over and make sure everything is good. Or just import it into Preview to look at it. They should be able to print from a Freehand EPS, but best to check with them first.
Instead of using Freehand's export to PDF simply print then instead of clicking on the Print button on the right, look to the left for a button that says "Save as PDF". This would probably be better than the EPS file, but either one can be imported into Illustrator.

You can, although (maybe) only the first page of the .doc; this may depend on the Illy version.

Will buzzword allow to upload word template, edit and convert to PDF.

Hi,
we have a module in our project where we need to Upload a word template - Edit the template - and save the changes - and attach exisitng uploaded files (for e.g. Word, excel and pdf file) and convert the word template along with the attached file into single PDF.
So is this possible?
Can any one help me in this?
Is there any free download?

Hello,
Buzzword is an online word processor that will absolutely allow you to upload a word .doc, edit it in Buzzword format, then export as a PDF. The one part that you can't do with Acrobat.com is to merge files - so you'd either need to merge the word .docs first and then upload, or use Adobe Acrobat desktop software if you need to merge PDF files. There is nothing to download as this is an online tool. Basic accounts are free - you can sign up at www.acrobat.com.
Please let me know if you have additional questions or concerns.
Kind Regards,
Michelle

I wrote a document a while back describing how to use JFreeChart and iText to generate charts in PDF format. You can download it from the JFreeChart project page on SourceForge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jfreechart
Look in the 'Files' section under 'Documentation' for a file called 'jfreechart2pdf-v2.pdf'. It should give you some pointers.

Weird Print problems and conversion to PDF problems...

I edited a logo in Illustrator for a hat using spot colors. 3 colors total. I saved as illustrator and then placed in InDesign for sizing. I printed it and some of the color didnt show up. So I figured it was the spot colors screwing with our printer. I printed again, but this time, in the ink manager of the print dialogue, I converted all spots to process. That substantially changed the colors in the image. I saved to PDF and then opened in Photoshop, and I get missing color plus changed color. Whats up? Looks great on screen when in Illustrator, and placed in InDesign.. but when It prints or is converted to PDF and opened in Photoshop, it goes to hell.
All Creative Suite 2 files on a Mac

Yep.. it's an overprint issue. When I open the PDF, the overprint version is all screwed up... and over print preview OFF looks fine.
Why is overprint doing anything? I dont intentionally do anything with overprint..I dont really know what overprint is, let alone want anything to do with overprint. I want whats on screen to print...

Automator keeping JPG keyword tags and converting to PDF?

I scanned a bunch of documents and put them into iPhoto and meticulously tagged them.
Now I've decided I'd rather have them as PDFs so I can run OCR on them)
I do not want to lose my keywords.
I can export the images from iPhoto and preserve the keywords
the problem is... whether I use Acrobat Pro or Preview, there's no way to convert the JPGs to PDF and keep that embedded metadata.
How can I export from iPhoto and get my keywords put into the file's spotlight comments?
Some way with Automator?

A solution is now available thanks to me. I wrote the author of the Photoshop CS3 Automator Action Pack and upon my suggestion he has added a new Copy IPTC data to Spotlight Comments action.
Now you can use Photoshop and Automator to convert iPhoto exported JPGs with Keywords embedded in the IPTC field to PDF's with Spotlight comments.

Insert HTML and export to PDF problem (ID CS6)

Greetings,
A new feature in Indesign CS6 is to insert HTML snippets in an Indesign document via the Object > Insert HTML option.
This will insert a frame in the page containing the rendered HTML content.
There are several issues that I have encountered using this feature in Indesign CS6. Can anyone advise if these are bugs/ux issues and provide any alternatives/solutions.
1) After inserting any HTML content (even the default "This is an HTML snippet"), when I try to export to PDF format (Interactive or Print), the HTML content or rather its frame container is rendered in black. I've noticed that the HTML content is exported as a image so all I get are black rectangles.
There is no problem when I try to export to HTML format.
2) There seems to be a paste size limit in the Insert HTML text area/field as I can only paste 16566 characters of HTML code. (Haven't checked yet if the limit is in characters or tags or newlines).
3) How can you set such that the HTML object frame will span multiple pages for cases where the HTML content is larger than the height of the page? Since it is not a text frame, I can't find a threading feature or a possible workaround. Or is the "Insert HTML" feature not really applicable for PDF export workflows but only for epubs?
Thanks

Oh ok. I guess direct HTML import is still not possible in ID CS6 (either import as XML or convert to DOC/RTF) for PDF export.
Thanks

Indesign CS4/CS3 and Export to PDF problems

Hello,
I have been having problems with both Indesign CS3 and CS4 and exporting large documents to a PDF-file. Exporting halts with error messages like: "Failed to Export the PDF file" in CS4 or "Error encountered while reading JPEG image" in CS3.
Problem can be corrected by simply closing InDesign and restarting it and opening the same file again. It appears that problem occurs more often the file is large. Any suggestions how to fix this problem?
I'm using Vista 64-bit and have 8GB memory.

Handling of missing links HAS changed, and in my opinion for the worse, but at the request of users, so that missing links no longer open the Links panel automatically or ask you to update on opening as they used to, though you should still receive a warning that the links are missing UNLESS YOU HAVE TURNED IT OFF IN YOUR PREFERENCES. It's on by default and you will find the option under the file handling section.
The rationale is that many workflows do not require that links be intact to accomplish the current editing, and longer documents with hundreds of missing links used to take many minutes to open while ID searched, essentially costing those users lots of money.
IF you have stored the links in the same directory as the .indd file, and IF you have moved the entire directory and IF you have enabled finding missing links when opening files, InDesign will find and update the locations for the links when the file is opened. If ID is unable to locate a link, because it is not in the current directory or a subfolder, you will see a warning message (in the past you would have had the option to browse for the missing files), and you must open the links panel if you wish to fix them manually.
In my opinion this is a very acceptable situation, and a great benefit to all types of workflows. I need to know links are modified or missing, so I've left that enabled. Those who don't need to know are no longer bothered or delayed. I suggest you pay a visit to the preferences and make sure that missing/modified checks are enabled, and if you are still having problems then your links aren't stored in the same directory, and that has always been an issue in ID when things get moved.
