Getting PDF files doesn't work on Windows 7?

Hi,
   I had a working installation of Adobe Output Central v5.5 on a Windows 2000 machine. I then tried to move it to Windows 7 because we want to change the hardare.
I set up all programs to run as Windows 2000 under windows 7 (this is something you can decide with the standard functionalities of Windows 7) and all works, BUT, if I try to generate a PDF document I get the famous error [Invalid printer type (98)].
I use the -asppdf command line parameter to force PDF output and the PDF presentment target is compiled into the MDF file.
98 is the number that you can read in the "Printer Type" parameter in the pdf.ics file.
If I comment out that line in the ICS file, the PDF file is produced, but it's corrupted, so it's not readable with any PDF reader.
Any idea?
Manyt thanks in advance.

Have you tested an external mouse as I already suggested?
You can try to install Value Added Package for another Portege series notebook. Just search a little bit on the Toshiba website.
In worst case you have to restore factory settings (preinstalled OS). There should the mouse working properly.

  • How to get PDF files to open in 1 window, rather than a new window each time

    When opening several PDF files, I find they open up in a new window. Previosuly they opened within the same window.
    I am using Adobe Reader 9

    Thank you for your comments.
    Truthfully, I am shocked that this is the case and even more so that people didn't put up such a stink that Apple had to reinstate the old option. If I had to pick only one, which doesn't seem reasonable at all, I would choose the separate windows of old as opposed to the tabs.
    Thanks again for your help; I was really hoping that I wouldn't be disappointed.

  • Interactive button in PDF file doesn't work with Adobe Reader for Mac nor Acrobat Pro

    Hello!
    I've to use a interactive form which has an interactive button that is supposed to send that form by email. If I open that PDF with my iPhone or iPad with the PDF Expert App, it works perfectly, but for any strange reason, when I try to open that same PDF in my Mac with Adobe Reader or Acrobat pro, that button doesn't do anything.
    Can this be a configuration error?
    Thanks!

    The problem is deeper than that. It's not reader. Now the same form I was creating in LifeCycle Designer ES2 yesterday, with the actions working perfectly, no longer work. None of the actions are working.
    Could it be realted to me trying to set the default version compatibility to Adobe 7. It gave me warnings, so I set it back to 9.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Illustrator extention export PDF file as PSD worked on Windows XP but not on Windows 7

    We have a extension that convert files to CMYK PSD with color profile attached. It worked fine (for most of files) on Windows XP but not on Windows 7.
      var expOpt: ExportOptionsPhotoshop = new ExportOptionsPhotoshop();
      expOpt.resolution = 300;
      expOpt.imageColorSpace = ImageColorSpace.CMYK;
      expOpt.embedICCProfile = true;
      doc.exportFile( psdFile, ExportType.PHOTOSHOP, expOpt );
    above code never throw any exception on Windows7, but just no file been saved. It only happened to convert PDF to PSD.
    If I manually open file in Illustrator (win7) and export it as PSD, I got ‘not enough memory’ error.  I googled a solution make the manual exporting worked but still the extension didn’t work.
    The solution for manual operation is set ‘additional plug-in folder’ for preferences-> plug-ins& Scratch disks’.
    Any advice?
    Thanks!
    Ling

    I apologize for not having an answer. I just wanted to chime in and say that I am having the exact same issue. I have never had this before. It's happened ever since I had my hard drive replaced and Illustrator has been reinstalled, so I am assuming that it's a preference somewhere that I have missed?

  • How to get PDF file that has been transformed into docx into my filing system so I can work on it???

    How can I get the PDF file that was transformed into a docx file into my filing system to be able to work on it and translate it as the customer requested?

    THanks for your reply.
    Well what happens is I bought the program. It gives you a button to click,
    you log in and then a box opens up asking you to select the file, I go into
    my filing system (in Windows explorer) select the file, and the program
    converts it into docx, my choice.  I can read it there and when I try to
    copy and paste it into my file where the PDF version is saved, it behaves
    like an "image", and I can't save it.... or it saves likes something you
    save on the internet, so you have to go into internet every time you want
    to see it.    I have also pressed any amount of buttons to see if it will
    give me the option to save it any other way, and have found nothing.  What
    I would need is a file in docx.format that I can edit.  People send me
    things in PDF and sometimes I can just copy it off the PDF file and save it
    in WOrd, then I can translate it for them. But sometimes the PDF file
    doesnt allow me to copy the text.  If it is in image form, I cannot work on
    it.  It means printing it, so I can copy type it into Word... and for that
    I certainly wouldnt need to buy a program.  Its just double the work and
    ends up that the job takes twice as long.!
    Sorry  if I am a bit dumb with informatics.  But I simply could not find
    any way whatever to  copy the PDF file that was transformed into Word, in a
    format that would enable me to edit it.
    Kindest regards,

  • Interactive pdf with movies/swf files doesn't work in up-to-date Acrobat Reader

    Hi, I've a CS6 InDesign doc with movies (MP4's from a URL) and a few swf files. When exporting as an interactive pdf, all the links, movies, swf's work fine in my Acrobat Pro. They work fine on other peoples PC's with Acrobat Pro. But on all my clients PC's with up to date Reader, the movies are playing slow, and the pdf just doesn't work as expected. With links to next page etc not working either. They have up dated their Flash Player too. Still not working well.
    Is there a magic fix? Can I re-save this pdf differently so they can experience all the interactive features properly?
    I created a similar pdf last year from CS5, but adding in the movies & links on the pdf. Do I have to do this again?
    Yours, mostly quite fed uply, Gina !

    Is it possible that your client's PC is just a very slow machine? You might consider cutting out some of the interactivity if your PDF is to complex to be handled by less powerful machines.

    This doesn't work in Windows 8. Anybody know how to get this dialog box in Windows 8?

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Lync screen sharing doesn't work in Windows 10 Technical Preview (9879 Build)

    Why Lync screen sharing doesn't work in Windows 10 Technical Preview?
    It works well Windows 8.1, but why not in Windows 10?

    Hi PriTeddy,
    Thanks for your feedback.
    As Paul Adare said, Microsoft has noticed such issue, they are listed in following blog:
    http://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2014/11/12/new-build-available-to-the-windows-insider-program/
    Some known problems:
    As with the last build, you’re getting hot-off-the-presses code which means there are a few issues. We’ll be publishing WU updates shortly to fix the first two, but the remainder will not be fixed for 9879.
    •In some cases you may get a black screen when trying to log-in or unlock. The only option is to hold the power button to hard reboot.
    •You will be unable to connect to Distributed File System network locations.
    •Some systems may see disk growth of 20GB+ due to driver install duplication. On systems with low disk space this can block setup and cause a rollback to the previous build.
    •Skype calls will disconnect and Music will stop playing if those apps are minimized.
    •There are several known issues with screen sharing with Lync.
    Let’s wait for next builds.

  • Jar file doesn't work

    I am quite new to java so I hope my question is not stupid.
    I used bluej to realize an application.It works when executing the main method in bluej,but when I create the jar file,it simpy doesn't work.I have included the main class when creating the jar file.When double-clicking on the jar file, it makes the typical error sound of windows,but it doesn't show any message.
    What is the problem?

    Welcome to the Sun forums.
    Subject: My Applet Jar file doesn't work !! .
    1) Note that one '!' denotes exclamation, whereas 2 or more often denotes a dweeb.
    2) Since you are on your first post, I will point out that applets are an advanced topic, and should not be attempted by newbies.
    3) "doesn't work" is very vague. It is likely to produce a reply like "maybe the applet is lazy - try flogging it".

    ..I have written this java applet :When posting code, code snippets, HTML/XML or input/output, please use the code tags. The code tags help retain the formatting and indentation of the sample. To use the code tags, select the sample and click the CODE button.
    Also note that the most preferred form of code is an SSCCE *(<- link).* In an SSCCE, your would remove all but one button (if the actionPerformed fails with 6 or 7 buttons, trim it down to fail with just one or two.
    i made a jar file :So does the applet work before you make the Jar file? Your post so far suggests the Jar file is the problem.
    i created a file and named it MANIFEST.MF .i wrote inside it :
    Main-Class: test
    Then i placed it in a folder with the test.class .I created jar file using command line.
    I entered the test.class path and then wrote this command :
    jar cvfm myjar.jar MANIFEST.MF *.class
    Then the jar file "myjar.jar" is created .
    it's executed but this function "public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) " won't wrok.
    i keep pressing the buttons but nothing is happening !!So you get 'no output in the console & no effect in the applet'?
    What is the URL where I can see your applet failing?
    As an aside, since Sun does not guarantee that applet clients will act on the showDocument command, even if it does not work, it would not be a 'bug'.

  • Why do I get pdf files with an underscore  in the extension ( ._pdf)

    Why do I get pdf files with an underscore  in the extension ( ._pdf)  and how do I  open them when they are email attachemnts, becuase it wont let me rename it or save it as any other version.

    Not sure. What email are you using? Gmail (or web based email) by chance?
    Definitely not a Reader issue if you can see the underscore in your email.
    You can try saving it as is then try renaming it using Windows Explorer to see if that works.
