How to correct bad PDF display of Excel 2007 graph-Adobe Pro X?

Just installed Adobe Acrobat Pro X; previously had Adobe Pro 8, which worked fine. Have Excel 2007 files with an Excel graph and a JPG image on the spreadsheet tab. Both the graph and the JPG are too big, are displaced, and hide spreadsheet data, when the Excel file is Saved As a PDF using Adobe Pro dialog or Excel dialog, or the Excel Plug-In to Create PDF. For some strange reason, printing to PDF works, although that is limiting. All of the settings are the same for the Adobe Printer as Adobe Pro settings. Changing them or going to default did not help. Just did the latest update; that did not help.
The graph and JPG are too large for the PDF page. Paper printing from Excel still works fine. Producing a PDF on another machine with Pro 8 still works fine. Could not find this problem discussed anywhere. Using XP, fully patched. This should not be a complicated process, nor a complex spreadsheet. What is going on?
Thanks

Regardless of the method and Adobe product used to create the PDF, including the Excel tool button, the single common factor whether the PDF correctly displays a JPG or graph in the Excel file that is being done at anything other than 100% size is whether the Adobe Printer or a Physical Printer is selected as the default printer in the Windows Printers and Faxes-Settings. This is true even though the printer is not being used. I have created the same PDF using every method/product and the results are always the same, and only properly display when either the setting is 100% size or the system printer is selected as Adobe Printer. This is true only after installing Adobe X (8 was previously installed, and worked as expected).

You say the settings for the printer work fine, but do not for PDF Maker (I am assuming this is what you meant). PDF Maker no longer uses the printer and the settings are independent. Check the settings for PDF Maker under the create PDF menu.

How to make a pdf (form) accessible for reader in Adobe Acrobat x pro?

Hi guys, i have bit of a problem here as i am new to the Acrobat pro X
Using Acrobat pro 9 i always could save a LiveCycle pdf form with permission to fill and save as a reader user. now i have upgraded to cs6 and i have no clue how to do that anymore. The half of the options are gone and i can't access the older Acrobat pro anymore.
Does anyone know how to save a pdf form using Acrobat X for adobe reader users giving permission to read and save my pdf files?

For Acrobat X go to File-> Save as->Reader Extended PDF
This will embed the reader extended rights in PDF.

Problem Creating PDF Files from Excel 2007

I am running WinXP SP2, Office 2007, and Acrobat v8.1.2. I have an Excel workbook with multiple worksheets. When I was using Excel 2003 I could create a PDF file using five of the six worksheets. Since upgrading to Office 2007 I am unable to create PDF files from Excel. I can create PDF files from Word 2007. When I attempt to use the Acrobat Plug-in to create a PDF I get a message saying the file needs to be saved first. It then attempts to save the file to a strange, somewhat random, file name (e.g. A234G53). When I say OK Excel just hangs and is unresponsive. The way that I can clear it is to stop Excel using Task Manager. I have tried reinstalling Acrobat without successfully solving the problem. Any ideas on how I can diagnose and/or solve the problem?
Thanks.

Is your Excel file on a location outside your machine's disk? If so, try copying to local disk.
Does the Excel file have any protection applied to it? If so, try removing the protection
If these don't work, can you post a sample file that demonstrates the problem.

Importing pdf form into Excel 2007 gives me a blank form

Howdy. I am using Excel 2007 and I choose Insert - Object - Adobe Acrobat Document. When the pdf is inserted I see the form but every field is now blank. I am using Adobe Reader X to review the forms I receive. I do not know when version the original form was created in. Even if I save the form in Reader X and then import it, it is still blank. Does anyone know how to keep the data in the form?
Thanks

Form fields and annotations (such as those available on the Review & Comment toolbar) are not part of the core PDF page content.
Form fields and annotations are objects that are associated with a location on a PDF page.
Core content of a PDF (including the glyphs that depict textual content) are graphic objects "painted" to the PDF page by the PDF creation process.
A simple way to see this is to create two simple 1 page PDFs having different page content.
On the first PDF, add a form field and an annotation. Save. Now, use Replace Pages to replace PDF#1 with PDF#2.
Or, do the opposite. Either demonstrates that form fields and annotations are not part of the core PDF page content.
Simplistic, but convenient is to consider form fields/annotations as on a separate "layer".
The "meat and potatoes" are in ISO 32000-1.
Adobe's ISO approved copy of ISO 32000-1 (The PDF ISO Standard):
http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PDF32000_200 8.pdf
What is inserted into the Excel file is the core PDF page content.
Using Acrobat Pro:
To "flatten" form fields into the PDF page content you could use Acrobat's Optimizer or a Preflight.
To "flatten" annotations into the PDF page content you could use an Acrobat Preflight.

Excel 2007 graph into Illustrator CS2

I have discovered an issue with Illustrator CS2 and Excel 2007...when I try to edit a graph in Illustrator (either by cutting and pasting or printing to a pdf and opening in Illustrator), all of the graph lines are no longer lines. They are individual shapes with fills instead of strokes. Does anyone know of a way of fixing this? I edit graphs for a living and this is a tragic discovery! I had no problems with Excel 2003. Would this problem go away if I upgraded to CS3?

Having the same problem with Illustrator CS3. All Excel 3D graph/chart are individual shapes. Looks horrible.
Don't have Office 2003 installed. So sure if it only an Excel 2007 issue.
No problem with Excel 2004 on the Mac.

How to turn a pdf file into excel document and keep original format

I Have an excel bid form that i use all the time ,then i convert it into a PDF And once in a while i need to add something to it I paid for acrobat but when i try to turn the PDF back into an excel document the format is changed , the columns are in the wrong places And it does not look at all like the original excell form is there any thing i can do to fix this If not this will be useless to me any help appreciated

A PDF does not contain any spreadsheet, word processing or page layout file format information.
No "format", columns, rows, etc.
"When you create a PDF, you’re painting a picture. Your paintbrush is the is the result of a combination of the software used to create the source document and the software you’ve chosen to convert your source document into the universal electronic document format we all know as PDF.
Like the painter’s brushstrokes, each character, each line and each image is fundamentally independent, but they can interact with each other to produce particular visual effects. On the PDF page, objects are connected by a coordinate system and not a lot else. There’s no logical, semantic connection between the letters comprising a word; characters simply happen at a series of locations on the rendered page.
As originally designed, PDF is fundamentally a system for painting objects onto a page, plus a whole lot of other features we aren’t talking about right now! There’s no innate concept of words, sentences, paragraphs, columns, headings, images, tables, lists, footnotes – any of the semantic structures that distinguish a “document” from a meaningless heap of letters, shapes and colors. PDF is fundamentally about how the document appears on the page, not how it looks when abstracted from the page."

How to correct bad PAB addresses that route through old GWIA

Old system was GW 7.x on NetWare 6.5 servers.
New system is GW 8.0.2HP2 on Windows 2008 servers.
We moved to new hardware, etc. when we upgraded to GW 8. It's time to turn off the old GWIA but I find that many people have saved addresses (I assume mostly in Frequent Contacts) that route messages through our old GWIA. Doing a grep search of the old GWIA logs on the term "sender" is how I know this is still how these messages are flowing.
Anyway, for example, there is a user that sends messages to his VP and that VP's address shows to be "Firstname Lastname ("[email protected]@etmc.org) in the properties of the message. With the old GWIA off messages to this address remain in Pending status. Turn the old GWIA back on and the message goes on through.
Does the GWCheck PABFix option correct these stored addresses in personal address books, or is there another way, or any way at all?
TIA
Steve

I just had this problem after upgrading to 2012. An old utility (gwpabasr.exe) saved the day. You can find it in the file finder on the download site. Yes, it is OLD but it worked. Just be careful of the location of the gwpabasr.sri. It looks for it in the local windowsa directory. I know I am late to post to this request but maybe some else is looking for it.

How to correct no text displayed in "alert();" function?

Hello AEScriptingComm,
                                       you were highly recommended by David of Pro Video Coalition.
I hoped you could help using the alert(vals) in ExtendScript in After Effects.
When i run the script all works but,..
1)
a) ..the resulting Script Alert contains no text or numeric info, AND,..
b) its not the "AE" style alert window the tutorial shows when alert(vals) is used?
Here is the .jsx script code:
var prop1 = app.project.item(1).layer(1).property("ADBE Transform
Group").property("ADBE Position");
var keyLength = prop1.numkeys;
var vals
   = new Array();
for(var k=0; k<keyLength; k++)
vals[vals.length] = prop1.keyValue(k+1);
alert(vals);
Any help or instructions greatly appreciated,
J

Really appreciate and will use your instructions and code segments ID1215.
As much as i loved assembly, VXD and c++ games/graphics coding with ring 0 access, i should have known to debug the most obvious error in my AE project that failed an otherwise functional script.
Part B)
If i may guys i have one last question the tutorer will hopefully answer soon, and which is the ultimate goal and reason i'm learning ExtendScripts:
I have a few dozen AI, imported Shape Layers with paths "Created..from Vector Layers" in After Effects.
In order to use a .jsxbin script to change every path to the same number of verticies i must 1st convert them to Keyframes on the same Mask Path property.
1) could you please show\send an example showing how to,..
a) Get\Retrieve "KeyValue" from multiple, single (Shape Layers):Outlines > Contents > Group > Path > Path as shown in screenshot "4-CreateShapeFromVecLyr2Outlines.JPG",
and then,..
b) "SetValue" from those paths into Mask > Mask Path keyframes also in screenshot "1-ExtendScript_ShapePathsTOMaskPathKeyframes.JPG"?
esp. appreciate your patience in light of my most resent fumble, there go my wide reciever dreams, lol,
Jeff
