How to generate high quality PDFs?

Hello everyone,
Before I am told to use Google or search this forum for answers to my question, let me say that I have already done that. Unfortunately, I haven't found a solution.
My problem: Microsoft Word produces low quality PDFs rendering my work useless. The PDF fonts look nothing like those in Word, nor does the spacing. The same problem appears when I try to archive a word file, which is shown perfectly in the Preview box, as a PDF file. This makes me think that the PDF generator engine in OS X has a problem.(?)
The only solution I have found: InDesign - the abundance of quality choices allows for a high quality PDF generation.
Now, is there really no other way to generate high quality PDFs from Microsoft Word or the Preview? Do I have to recreate all my files in InDesign to ensure a high quality PDF output?
I thank you for your time and answers beforehand!

CarmeloX,
you can use Photoshop 7 and PageMaker 7 (with two updates). Really no problem
in Windows XP. Probably a problem in newer operating systems.
Photoshop 7 is equipped with a very reasonable Color Management System.
For PageMaker you'll need a Postscript driver and Distiller. Please ask here:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/pagemaker_general
This combination works perfectly, unless you want to handle so called live transparency.
Standard on/off transparency (PostScript) is fully supported.
Then it's possible to create perfect PDFs for inkjets, wide format inkjets, toner printers
and offset printing (PDF/X-1a for instance).
Almost all docs here were made with Photoshop CS2 (or older versions), PageMaker 7,
MathType and the PostScript editor PSAlter for technical illustrations:
http://docs-hoffmann.de/howww41a.html
Only recently I had converted everything into InDesign CS2 and newly converted to PDF.
I've installed as well CS6 (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator), but mostly I'm using CS2.
By the way - here you are not directly talking to Adobe ...
Good luck and best regards --Gernot Hoffmann

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.

How to Take High Quality GIF Animation In After Effects? Could You Tell Me If You Know

Some People Posting (In Behance) High Quality GIF Motion Graphics. How They Did?

No such thing as a high quality animated gif if high quality means more than 256 colors and anti aliasing.
If you want to create a better looking animated gif in After Effects then you render a lossless movie from your composition and then use Photoshop or another app to turn the movie into an animated gif.
If you want to import an animated gif into AE then what you see is all there is. Gif's cannot contain more than 256 colors and anti aliasing is terrible to non existent.

How to Export High Quality Adobe Flash Professional CS6

Okay, here's the situation. I've created a series of separate files of animations using .PNG images, and JPGs. Each animation is less than 1 minute long - and are separate files.
I have tried exporting various ones, and have had absolutely no luck in getting anything resembling high quality. I mean the first animations made by humans were better quality than this.
It's utterly ridiculous how bad this program works.
Anyways...
I've tried altering the frame rate, dimensions of the document, different export files, different players to view, I've gone into the settings and made sure the highest quality option is selected, etc. I've combed the internet for weeks and have read EVERYTHING on the subject (not much!!). I've also watched every relevant youtube video and nothing has worked!
I am losing my mind over this.
I even tried opening the files in Premiere and exporting them and they look even worse! What the hell is going on??
The whole reason I began using Flash is because research led me to believe it was made for this purpose but it clearly can't do...anything.
Is there any solution? Or should I just look into a different program?

What Image Export Preset settings are you using? (See and edit these via "Aperture→Presets→Image Export".)
16-bit TIFF is the highest quality Image Format. If you are using JPEG, set the Image Quality slider all the way to the right ("12"). Make sure size is set to "Original Size". "DPI" has no bearing on image quality -- it is just a setting that some apps use to determine how big to display the image on the screen.

How to Capture High Quality Picture in Flex using webcam

Hi All,
We need to use the built-in webcam to caputre the high quality still image. However, seems the webcam is set to video capture mode by default. The built-in cam is 1.3 mega pixel or 2.0 mega pixel, however, the resolution of still image caputured is quite low, around 0.3 mega only.
Anyone knows how to utilize the web cam to capature the high quality image in Flex?
Thanks a lot!

It is hard to believe that I've figured the whole thing out and accomplished my goal - while it being my first dip in flex & actionscript.

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?

How to make High Quality HD DVDs from iMovie11 Toast 10 Titanium Pro?

I was searching all over the net to find answers to a problem that I have with film making at home. I'm trying to become an Indie film maker on a small amount of money to start out, so to speak. I've asked Apple over and over for some help, but they say - we can't because we don't support third party solutions. I have iMovie 11 and iMovie HD 6. I use AVCHD 1080i camcorders and a GoPro HD Hero for time lapse shots. Toast 10 Titanium Pro and a external LaCie d2 Blu-ray Drive also external hard drives. I'm trying to make high quality HD dvd's and then Blu-ray disks later also for my ( high elevation mountain video) demos. Codec/compression - bit rate/data rate - key frame - sample rate and what software to use or not is all confusing me. I've tried and I'm still not making video that looks as good as it did when first imported into iMovie. Can anyone please help me out with this mater. Thank You Good Day

Good FAQ type information [is at this link|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2424451]
In general, import to iMovie in FULL, not LARGE.
Export from iMovie using the SHARE menu. Use the 1080P Preset. You can SHARE/iTUNES, SHARE/MEDIA BROWSER, SHARE/MOVIE..., or FILE/FINALIZE PROJECT. All will use the 1080P preset.
You can also SHARE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME, but I would not recommend it unless you know what you are doing.
Drag this file into TOAST 10 with BluRay plugin.
Check FILE/PROJECT PROPERTIES in TOAST to make sure you are burning at highest quality.

How to export high quality images from graphs

Hello,
I am absolutely no expert in this subject, so it may be that I say some aberrations
So this is what I want to do:
I perform signal processing of vibration data with LabVIEW. What I get as results are a lot of graphs such as spectrums, waveforms, intensity graphs, 3d surface graphs, etc. being the most important the 3 firsts.
Then, of course, I need to write some reports or powerpoint presentations, and I need to show the plots as figures. The data that I have is very large, (a waveform is sampled at 1,25 MS/s and I am ploting 10 seconds) so I can only export the simplified version of the image to the by right clicking the graph and then I paste it in Paint and save it in bmp format.
Sometimes I need to add some text on the images, so I do that also in Paint. Finally I import the bmp image to the word/powerpoint document and save it.
When I make a report, I use one of the available tools to convert the word .doc document into a pdf document (this tools that are like a printer), so I get as a result a PDF with the text and the images.
As you can imagine, the final result is not so good, particulary on the images. They are not so clear. I have seen some pdf documents which have images so clear that you can zoom it all you want and nothing happens. I believe these images are stored on a vectorial format.
Well now I want to improve the quality of my reports so first of all I want to use some Latex software to write the text. And of course, I would like to have my graphs - generated by LabVIEW - in this vectorial format. Does anyone know how can I do this?
I have read something about a dll which creates some .wmf image file but I don´t know very much about it.
thank you in advance,
crimovlc
PS: attached are some of my current images

This is not want you wanted but may be useful.
In this thread boltzmann teaches us how to imbed the CW-3D graph in a PP presentation. You can manipulate the 3d graph IN PP !

How to generate report in pdf format through a JSP page

I require to generate my report from my JSP page into a PDF format . How can i do it?

Use a Java API which can create PDF files based on some collection of plain vanilla Java objects (List, String, Number, etc).
Google can find them all. Just feed it with something like "Java PDF API" or so. A commonly used one is iText.
That said, when talking about this in JSP context, ensure that you do NOT write raw Java code in JSP files using scriptlets. Raw Java code belongs in Java classes. In such case you need a Servlet. In JSP just use taglibs and EL to interact with backend Java code and data. Scriptlets are discouraged since over a decade.

How to scan highest quality .pdf's with Image Capture?

Hi,
I need to scan a pile of official documents and I'm trying to use Image Capture for that. How can I get the highest quality and the files at a reasonable size at the same time? It shouldn't be necessary to end up with 12 MB .pdf files to get a legible quality with some images and colors intact, should it?
All suggestions are welcome!
Many thanks in advance!

As you prepare to print, once you show full detail in the print window, you should see something like this:
That row under "Orientation" that currently says "Print Settings" may say something else like "Image Capture". Change it to "Print Settings" as shown above. Then adjust the "Print Quality" line below it to something like "Economy" or "Fast Economy".
