How to create a PDF output

When I select my ADOBE PDF printer from my printer list and print to file I don't get a PDF file. I get a PRN file. When I try to open it with ADOBE I get a "syntax error". But there's no information about what the error is.
Is there anyway to get PDF output from Crystal?
Thanks

Instead of "printing" to PDF, you should try "exporting" to PDF.  Export is both an option on the File menu and a button on the main toolbar.  If the PDF export format was installed when you installed Crystal, you will be able to select it from the drop-down list of output formats on in the Export window.

  • How to create a pdf file from multiple images ?

    Dear All,
    I want to create a SINGLE page pdf file from two or more page size images that are combined to make a single page pdf. Again, this question is on pdfs that are made out of several, atleast  two color images and a black-and-white mask for one of them.
    I have such pdf files from an unknown source (the producer is edited out) whereby there are three tiff images, obtained using the well known pdfimages extractor.
    When I want to make a pdf out of tiff or png or other image formats, I right click and tell Adobe Acrobat to make a pdf.
    However, I dont know how I can give a command to select say,  three tif images and specify which is the mask for which and then join  them in a way that I get the pdf from the composite of the two color images and a mask for one of them.
    Please help me out.
    I am a little familiar with the pdf structure skeleton and when necessary, fixed xref tables in one of my favorite editors. A few years ago, I also wrote a bunch of javascripts to make some annotations and needed some automation and used some itext type libraries. However, I need your help in this problem as I am now rusty and forgot some of what I studied to solve my earlier problems. This is a new problem for me. Gentle hints from you would be very nice to help me in this problem. Please specify if necessary what manual and pages to read. in the pdfspec.

    I would gladly mention that I am working on windows platform, preferably XP.
    I can also work on linux for free products that come with it.

    But adding other products, for the help of an adobe products user,
    even if it outside adobe, shall add greater prestige to your company
    and give impression of user-centeredness.

    Well, just add the few pdf stanzas since you are proficient on it and
    I am presently a little rusty as I mentioned. Just asking a little
    extra yard, not even to go an extra mile.
    > And, if you read that same document, you will see that there is NO SUCH
    > THING as a “text only PDF”.   All PDF documents are structured binary files.
    Well, ascii format or uncompressed format that is human readable. I
    know its a binary file, but human readable ascii version of it.
    I hope you can give me some stanza and various other approaches
    possible so I can select or combine things for myself. I see only a
    miniscule number of posts claiming to have written masks in this forum
    and then with no details.
    Regards

    I am completely new to Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. I need to know how to create a PDF which is larger than 129 inches for use on a plotter from MS Project 2007. I have searched the Adobe support articles with no success. Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

  • How to create a pdf with the correct size?

    Hi there
    How do I create a pdf with the correct size? I created several albums and ordered them. Now I want to backup the album and I know how to create a pdf, but when I choose A5 it's to big, when I create my own size it's not the size it should be. The original (made with iphoto) is a small size album 200x150mm. But when I create my own size (200x150) it shows some white borders.
    Does anybody have some tips ore workarounds?

    Books are designed for and printed on 8.5 x 11 inch stock, US Letter size.  You shouldn't have to select any size.  While viewing the All Pages mode in the book Control-Click on the page and select Save Book as PDF from the contextual menu. 
    That will create a PDF that iPhoto uses to upload and print.  Not all pages will be the same size as the dust jacket will be present in it's full size, 32.8 inches x 8.91 inches:
    If you want a PDF that's designed for your own printing the type Command+P while viewing the All Pages window.  In the first print window click on the PDF button.  It will present you with a contextual menu where you should select Save as PDF.  That will give you an 8.5 x 11 PDF file with all pages the same size.

  • How to create a pdf for the URL attached to an invoice and send it as an attachment in a mail

    HI,
    I have requirement where i need to get the URL attached to an invoice, create the pdf and send as an attachement in a mail.
    The URL attached to an invoice can be seen by following the path : VF03-> Billing document->system->Services for object ->Attachement list.
    On searching through existing forums, i found that there is a table 'SRGBTBREL' which stores relationships of GOS object. On giving the invoice number in field 'INSTID_A', i could find an entry in this table.
    To get the content, i used the class CL_FITV_GOS, method GET_CONTENT. To this method i passed following values:
    IV_ATTA_ID = FOL21000000000521URL39000000000012 (The value if field INSTID_B from table SRGBTBREL)
    IV_OBJTP   = 'URL'
    On execution, i get URL link but the content table is empty.
    Could anybody provide some input on how i get the content? Or may be how i can create pdf from the URL link and attach it to mail as an attachment?
    Thanks,

    Hi Amit,
    Solution provided by you is working when the link length is one line but it is not working for more than one line
    Eg: say link is https://......80 [80 characters long]
    I will give    <a href="https://...72            [in first line]
                     73..80">click here</a>         [in second line]
    I will get the output as 73...80">click here
    But i want only CLICK HERE in my output..
    Please suggest solution.
    Thanks,

  • How to create a PDF with markup enabled for Reader users?

    I have a bunch of Word 2007 documents containing project specs. I would like to be able to turn them into PDF documents that other people can markup using Reader. Is this possible?
    I tried using the built-in PDF output module. It creates a PDF document, but it is not enabled for comments.
    About halfway down on this comparison page,
         http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/matrix.html
    there is a row that says,
         "Review documents using familiar commenting tools such as sticky
         notes, highlighting, lines, shapes, and stamps"
    In the Reader column, there is a symbol in the Reader column that I guess is
    supposed to be some sort of half-full container or something. At the
    bottom, it says
         "When enabled by Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Pro Extended."
    This seems to indicate that Acrobat Standard cannot create comment-enabled PDF documents, but either Pro or Pro Extended can. Is that correct?
    If I buy Acrobat Pro, will I be able to use it to create comment-enabled PDF documents from my Word 2007 documents?
    If so, how does it work? Will it convert the Word document? Will it convert the PDF document I create using the Word add-in? Can I invoke it from inside Word?
    Thanks

    It's very simple. Create your PDF from Word, open in Acrobat and use the Comments>Enable for commenting and analysis in Adobe Reader. You cannot invoke it from within Word no.

  • Automator: How to create a PDF contact sheet?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a PDF from multiple images in automator. The PDF should contain:
    First Page: A contact sheet with all images
    Following pages: One page for each image
    Any idea how to achieve this? I don't even get the contact sheet working – it always results in a blank PDF.
    Kind regards
    Jan

    Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately the intructions in the link don't work (did it exactly like this -> result is an empty PDF). I learned now from other posts that this is a Mavericks specific issue, which seems to be unsolved.
    Apart from this: Do you think my request is solvable at all? Because the output of the contact sheet module would be the contact sheet iteslf (if it worked). I can't use this to create the full sized PDF pages, right?

  • How can i automate .pdf output and organize by color/bw?

    how can i "automate" multi-page .pdf output to preflight/imposition software workflow, organized by color/bw?
    basically what i'm trying to do is create a simple output function from InDesign that allows the user to just export a multi-page .pdf into a hot folder and on through preflight and imposition software. i want to be able to tell the hot folder which pages are color -so it can separate, rename and direct color pages to a color queue and b/w pages to a b/w queue.
    i've researched indesign distiller presets and the Acrobat JDF but the JDF isn't really meant for this exact purpose and doesn't help reduce the number of steps currently necessary to manually output/rename/etc.
    is there another way that i can embed information into a .pdf that could be read by a hot folder?

    You might check out this third-party plug-in for InDesign. It may or may not help you (I've never used it). I just saw it on the new Adobe Exchange (beta in Adobe Labs). Here's the description:
    Output Factory automates printing and exporting from Adobe InDesign. Export as single pages with variable file names, output layer versions, update modified links on the fly, preflight InDesign files before output, output to several format at once and much more.
    Just select the documents, adjust settings and Output Factory will do the rest for you. Keep working with other programs while Output Factory processes InDesign files in the background. Or leave it working overnight to output hundreds of documents, and the job will be done when you return in the morning.
    Key features:
    • Output multiple InDesign files automatically
    • Output as single pages
    • Automate printing and exporting to PDF, PostScript, EPS, Flash, IDML, EPUB and several image formats
    • Output files to multiple formats at once
    • Layer versioning: output layer combinations as single files
    • Update modified links automatically
    • Variable output file names
    • Preflight InDesign files and final PDFs
    • Supports books and booklet printing
    • Send output files over Internet and locally
    • Detailed output history
    System Requirements:
    - Adobe InDesign CS3-CS6
    - Mac OS X 10.5 and later, Intel-based Mac

  • How to create a pdf form allowing Reader user to insert picture - NOT from their local hard drive - but from photos I want them to choose from?

    Is there a way to create a PDF form where a Reader user can insert an image - that's NOT on their local hard drive?
    I have 4 photos available - the users of my form will choose one of them and insert it in the pdf form. The users will NOT have the photos saved on their local hard drives so ideally, they will see thumbnails or a preview of the available photos and then select and insert the photo they want to use.
    Is this possible? If so, how do I go about this? Right now, all I can find are ways to insert a photo located on the users local hard drive.
    Hopefully someone can answer my question.

    George, I'm not sure where the photos would go or how to include them. I'm a complete newbie when it comes to making pdf forms so i'm not sure if it's even possible.
    I'm planning to make a flier. I want the end user to be able to choose the photo displayed on the flier - the photos would be ones that I choose and supply. I know I could just make four different fliers, but I thought it would be more efficient if I had one flier and gave the Reader user the ability to select the photo they like.
    Does this sound possible to you?
