High Resolution pdf files

How do I convert a pdf file with graphics and text (created from a MS Word Doc) into a high-resolution pdf file suitable for print media?

In the printer properties or the preferences for PDF Maker (create PDF), select either the press or print settings file. That should do the job.

High resolution PDF ?

I don't know much about the subject, but I can do PDF files from my Word documents. I found out that just asking for a print and selecting PDF printer would lead me to it. BUT I have just been asked for a high resolution PDF file. What is this? I thought that I had found what I needed. What does that mean and what can I do?
Thanks for helping me with this.

What is normally meant by a "high resolution PDF" is a PDF file in which the image data is sufficient for high quality printing. Generally speaking, that means that all grayscale and color images have a resolution of 300 dpi and monochrome images have a resolution of 1200 dpi. Such high resolution should not be artificially achieve simply by up-rezing images in Photoshop. That doesn't solve anything. Furthermore, for certain image types, such as screen shots that are naturally relatively low resolution, you pretty much need to use the screen shot images "as-is." In the end, the resolution of the images in the PDF file depend on the original image resolution as well as the joboption settings used for downsampling. Also, joboptions should use very conservative compression settings if JPEG is used.

Very High Resolution PDFs for iPad

Hello,
A friend gave me a few PDF files created from very high resolution pictures to view on my iPad.
I loaded the PDF files on iBooks and so far so good. The problem is that when I swipe from a PDF page to another the image doesnt appear immidietly. It takes some time and the image is blur before it appears... After is fine but I want to remove this delay.
Does anyone knows any proper method to view high resolution PDF on iPad without delay when changing pages ? Or how what method or format to follow so to make them proper ?
Thanks in Advance.

What PDF reader are you using? Perhaps there is one out there that renders files better.
However, if the images are large then there is only so much that can be done. That delay is caused by the device processing the image. If you find a more efficient reader that may help. But you may also want to consider tweaking with those images, knocking them down just a bit and find that sweet spot where they're still of a good quality but not so large that they push the boundaries of what the device can handle.

High Resolution Digital File?

When downloading photos from my Canon EOS 7D the quality always takes a big hit! it becomes very pixelated. I am in dire need to save some photos from a photoshoot in a High Resolution Digital File and i cant seem to do it! Please help!!!
(Photoshop elements & organizer 13)
TIA!

The file resolution does not change when you import files in Organizer. Although it is possible that the files are large and hence the thumbnail generation is still in progress, which appears as blurred thumbnail. Please try right click > update thumbnail to confirm the same.
Thanks

Why do my high resolution pdfs have thin white lines all over them?

When I make high res pdfs to send to the printer, they often have thin white lines in them that seem to be very visible when they are displayed in email. This panicks my clients. When the files are opened in Acrobat, they look OK most of the time, but sometimes they still have the white lines. What causes this and how can I make it STOP!!! It is driving me and my clients nuts.
I am using Acrobat 8 Professional on a iMac OSX 10.6.8. My files are pretty standard for print pubs. They usually contain type and images, and the images get the white lines where the text boxes are in the source file. It is maddening.

I forgot to say that I am creating source files in AI CC if that makes a difference, but I have had this problem in the past with previous versions of AI.

High resolution PDF still generates low resolution drop shadows?

I have created a series of print ads in InDesign CS5.5 to be run in magazines, and at the bottom of the page is the company's logo, with a drop shadow applied to it within InDesign. Nothing strange there. Upon exporting the PDF, I use the Press Quality settings which by default are made to create 300 dpi PDFs. The only changes I make in the settings is adding bleed and crop marks, I don't change anything that could affect the resolution or transparency settings. But still, the magazine's print-technician always replies that the shadows in my document have a low resolution.
Up until now I have told him to not worry and run it anyway, and the results have been fine - I haven't noticed any problems with the quality of the print in the magazine. But it really annoys me that I keep getting these error messages - I want to create perfect PDFs! Why on earth are my shadows ending up as low resolution images?
The only thing I can imagine might be a sign of an issue is under the Advanced-tab in my Export-settings. The Transparency Flattener section (which I, to be honest, am not quite sure what it is) is set to medium resolution, and is greyed out - meaning I can't change it to high resolution. Could this be what is causing it? And if so, how do I fix it?

I don't spend a lot of time with Acrobat's preflight, but it looks like it assumes what the flattener preset will be at output even though it could be anything.
The default Press Quality preset exports live transparency with the flattener grayed out as Medium and it looks like Acrobat preflight considers that even though nothing has been flattened yet. So, here I've made a 3" sqaure box and exported it with Press Quality and prefilght tells me it's roughly 200ppi (which by the way is plenty for a dropshadow):
If I change the preset to High (set the Compatibility to 1.3, which lets you set the flattener to High, then reset compatibility to 1.4):
Then Acrobat's preflight tells me the shadow will have more resolution:

Creating a HIGH QUALITY pdf file?

I've just installed Acrobat 8.1 on Windows Vista and I can't find the quick way to create a **high quality** PDF from Microsft Word. The final PDF file sizes are tiny, and not good enough standard for printing. Any pointers much appreciated. Thx.

Also, when you say "and not good enough standard for printing" are you talking about creating PDF's to print on a desktop printer or are you talking about PDF's to send to a print house?
If the latter, I'd strongly suggest you talk to the print house and ask them what settings they prefer.

Best way for iTunes and Apple TV to output high resolution music files?

I am currently listening to music at home using this set-up:
My iTunes library of Apple Lossless music files ( Win 7 ) is in my home office, and it is connected to an Apple TV 3 in the living room through an Ethernet cable.
The Apple TV 3 is connected to a DAC Moon 100D through an optical cable
The DAC is connected to an integrated amplifier Cambridge Audio Azur 815A which outputs the analogical sound to the speakers.
I want to have best possible sound quality, but as far as I understand I have some limitations on this set-up:
1) Apple TV outputs everything at 16 bit/48 kHz (not bit perfect and not 'CD quality' 16 bit/ 44.1 kHz). So, even if I have higher quality music files being served from iTunes, it will be down sampled to 16 bit/48 kHz.
2) ITunes does NOT support 24bit recording and all Apple Lossless music files are automatically converted back to 16-Bit by iTunes
So here are my questions:
Can I play 24bit music files using iTunes directly from the PC to the DAC?
If yes, which formats?
Any suggestions to improve my set-up output quality?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Sugarrayleonard,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning Apple TV issues. You may want to consider a full restore of the device, if you haven't tried that yet:
Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation): Restoring your Apple TV
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4367
Restoring your Apple TV to factory settings
On Apple TV, choose Settings > General > Reset, and then click Restore.
Your Apple TV will restore to factory settings and will download and install the latest Apple TV software. This process may take some time. Do not disconnect your Apple TV's power cable during the restore process.
If you cannot use this process, and you have a micro-USB cable, try the steps in the next section.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

How do I get a high resolution pdf version of my pages document?

When exporting a pages document to the "best" version of PDF, the image is saved at a much lower resolution than what I need. I have a 3.5 MB pages file that ends up converting to a PDF that ends up only at 268KB. The quality just does not look professional at all.

> Henrik it is way too complicated because Apple has made it so and offered absolutely no guidance or documentation to expalin their actions. Not only that the process is buggy. I still can't get ColorSync to reliably accept name changes or changes to the settings.
I wouldn't disagree, nor would others. It is true of ColorSync as it is of TrueType (no pun intended) that the scientific inventions haven't turned into social innovations, partly because of the lack of educational effort, partly because of the lack of implementation in system level software itself.
Is Microsoft doing any better than Apple? No. Witness the fact, for instance, that the Adobe OpenType Library, like the Adobe Type 1 Library, overwrites ISO-IEC 10646-Universal Coded Character Set (UCS). With better education and better implementation, there would be no market for this sort of thing.
So, who is going to be doing the educating? Well, if you look at the country I live in, Denmark with a population of some 5.4m which is about the same as the population of city of Hamburg to the south, then Denmark lodged a Defect Report on ISO-IEC 10646:1993 because Danish Standards and the Danish Language Agency did not accept that in a connected world, universal character information cannot by definition specify character semantics without unique language and locale metainformation. If the locale for Danish were published by the Danish Language Agency, not only would it have to publish that it was wrong to start with, but the sale of non-conformant font software and non-conformant e-paper software would also stop, because endusers would understand that information input certainly does not equal information output. So what stops publication? Well, the largest corporation in Scandinavia until the mid-nineties was Østasiatisk Kompagni A/S (East Asiatic Company) which until 1994 sold Heidelberg printing presses through Heidelberg Eastern Inc from the Rockies to the Atlantic coast and until 1998 sold Heidelberg printing presses in the East Asian markets where the Adobe font model was known to be unworkable since Xerox started publishing the implications for RIP architectures of higher abstraction levels in font software and system software.
As you know, the discussion within Apple 1988-1996 led to conflict, and almost to collapse. It is not the case that US capitalists are selling poor software to EU consumers; it is the case that EU consumers are driving the demand for the supply of poor software that lacks the abstraction levels for separating the realm of colourimetry information from the realm of imageable colourant, the realm of character information from the realm of imageable composition, and the realm of layout rendering order from the realm of logical reading order. Change takes time, although sometimes it seems that the time it takes is too long -:).

Can I create a low resolution pdf file?

I have a 12 page document with a number of pictures which I wish to save as a PDF and upload to a website. In Pages when I export it as a PDF I get a choice of 'Good', 'Better' or 'Best' for image quality. Choosing 'Good' the resulting file is 8MB, rather too large for my liking. However when choosing 'Best' the resulting file size is still 8MB. So my questions are:
1. What's the difference between these settings?
2. Is it possible to create a PDF which reduces the image quality to screen resolution to make a smaller file?
I'd be grateful for any help.

Before you save to .pdf save your Pages document.
+Menu > File Reduce File Size+
This will trim all your images to their cropped size and lower their resolution to 72dpi.
Create your .pdf using whichever of the settings you like.
Open the .pdf in Preview .app and go
+Menu > File > Save As… > Format: PDF > Quartz Filter: Reduce File Size+
If you have Adobe Acrobat Pro
+Menu > Document > Reduce File Size+
or
+Menu > Advanced > PDF Optimizer… > set the resolution and options to your liking+

Problems making High Quality PDF file

I am working on an identity project and the pdfs keep coming out with the type looking thicker in areas .
also placed logos (vector art) are appearing Odd for example- the letter"i" in the corporate logo appears thicker on screen and in general the type is not at all crisp.
I actually was speaking to a adobe tech person who said she was going to get back to me about this problem and has not (over 2 weeks now)
I am desperate at this point to make a good quality pdf that will look like it will print
Any sure fire suggestions?

Not sure what you mean by that I am on my own system (not working on the cloud))
How do I fix?
Only on your own system.

How do i create high res pdf from psd file?

Hi all,
I've been searching endlessly for this answer however I cant get the answer. My commercial printer is requesting a high resolution pdf file, and i created my artwork in photoshop 2. Can anyone tell me how to create a high res pdf with this file? Someone told me I need to purchase acrobat 9, however from research I've conducted there are no tutorials to achieve this either, and $500 is a little steep for a waste of time

What do you mean by "Photoshop 2"? Are you referring to Photoshop CS2?
If Photoshop CS2, then you have been given the proper instructions.
If the option shown is unavailable to you, then your Photoshop installation is scrogged. Reinstall it.

How do I maintain high resolution of my Publisher file when I convert it to PDF?

How do I maintain the high resolution of my Publisher file when I convert it to PDF (I do not have access to a PostScript printer). Am I correct in understanding that the simple answer would be to convert the .pub file into a .ps file and then save this as a PDF? Which is no use to me because every time I try to convert my Publisher file to PostScript, the process fails because it is looking for connection to a PostScript printer. I need to send a high resolution (minimum 300dpi) PDF version of high resolution MSPublisher files to a commercial printer. And time is running out!

Hi,
The version set information and the tag hierarchy are stored within the catalog. It sounds as though you haven't brought over the catalog from your old computer.
The recommended way to transfer elements from one computer to a new one is to use the Backup catalog to CD, DVD or Hard Drive on your old system and then use Restore catalog from CD, DVD or Hard Drive on your new system. Is this how you did it?
That should have preserved your version sets.

High resolution color on PDFs look bad

When I upload a high resolution PDF to Creative Cloud Files, the color looks off.
Low resolution versions look fine.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Robert

This STILL hasn't been fixed. It's causing a lot of problems in my approval workflow as my clients see the over saturated/innaccurate color in the preview and are thinking that it's correct.
A perfect example is http://adobe.ly/1pIeGwT
If you look at it in the browser it's over saturated and the color is shifted. If you download the PDF the colors are correct.
This needs to be fixed ASAP, it's been over a month.
