How to save edit settings under preferrences to use when creating or printing a PDF from word 2003 Windows PC 8.1

I have tried to save my PDF settings after editing them, but when I go to "Print" to PDF and check the settings I keep getting Standard default settings.
There is no Adobe PDF listed as a file heading to change conversion settings on my Word screen.
I have tried to create a PDF by open file through the Adobe application and also by trying to print through the Word application with document open and using Adobe PDF as the printer driver.I have changed or edited the settings but they do not appear as an option to select, just the standard default settings.
I have been able to save my setting as a Adobe PDF job options, but can't access them or use them when it comes time to convert to PDF.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I have apprached it 3 different ways:
- by opening acrobat and going to preferrences, clining on  convert to PDf
- Microsoft Word, then changes each section of the edit settings, ie
general, fonts, images, etc make the cahneges then hit OK, at this point I
get a save as option rather than a save. It saves my changes as a PDF, but I
am not able to access it when I go to make the PDF.
- I also have tried to print PDF from Word  and got to properties to make
the changs with the same results as above.
- Then I tried yur suggestion and went to the printer in the control panel
and had the same results.
I am using mircosoft word 2003 which has been compatable with my windows 8.1
I think the problem may be I am using a "trial" version of Adobe Acrotbat DC
2105 version. It must not belettingme save the setting changes.But this
shouldnot be if they want me to really experience the full effects of the
program.
I appreciate your help, thanks

  • Creating a PDF from Word 2003: recommended settings for screenshot pictures without artifacts?

    My Word 2003 document shows screenshots from text dialogs (some 100% and some in reduced size).
    While the quality of the pictures is good in the MS Word viewer, my created PDFs show artifacts mainly at the black texts:
    the single characters are eroded or dilated!
    The viewing quality does not increase if I zoom in (e. g. to 200%).
    I tried settings without picture compression, but there are still artifacts.
    a) I add the screenshots via copy&paste using a snipping tool (= "snagit").
       Can I improve the import of pictures to Word?
    b) How can I select PDF creator settings which do not apply any compression (= original bitmap)?
        Or is it the priciple of PDF to compress the pictures anyway?
    Hope for some helpful hints!

    I generally just print to the Adobe PDF printer, but then I am generally not using links and such (actually I don't tend to use MS products and thus don't even have PDF Maker in my applications. However, the bookmarks and links are the most useful to a lot of folks. The tags provide the accessibility aspects and the formating information. The latter is useful if you want to try to come backwards at some point (or allow others to do that). However, it is almost always better to keep the original so you never have to come backwards. I can see the accessability aspects to be useful, particularly for universities and government organizations. For businesses, it may vary with the type of business (unless the government puts more regulations in place!).
    Typically, the tags are the factor that causes the most bloat in the resultant PDF. If you use lots of different fonts and embed them (always recommended), then that creates another form of bloat. Graphics that maintain more resolution that is needed can cause a lot of problems. I used to have one student who would embed 2400 dpi graphics in word files. I had to turn off graphics viewing in word because it would crash my system (the memory leaks in MS products are some of the worst). Simply reducing the resolution to 300 dpi (or 600 dpi) helps a lot. Keep in mind that the resolution of the eye is on the order of 100 dpi. You have to start using a magnifying glass or zooming to see the higher resolution (useful in some cases, but not usually). The intermediate step in creating a PDF is to print to a PS (you do not see this step normally), the step that often causes the problem with memory (you are limited to the size of free memory allocated to the TEMP folder -- not the free memory on your hard drive). Hope that explains some of the limitations.

    And you just like helping people?
      That is just the way this forum works - users get help from other users and learn from others and like to contribute if they see they can help.
    My latest challenge was typing in melodies and chords of songs I'd written on the piano. But using the Musical Typing in register C3 I inserted all the notes by playing on the imac keyboard (and written in the treble clef). The only problem is you cant insert the chords at the same time. Now I have an empty bass clef, which requires chords be inserted in register C2 and I dont know yet how to do that.
    To fill in the chords: Join a melody track and a bass track, like this:
    - Create a new software track and record the chords separately with musical typing.
    - Create a new track and copy your melody loops there (just as backup, if something goes wrong)
    - Do the same with the track containing the chords.
    - Then select all loops in the copies of the melody track  and the copy of the chords track and select from the main menu
           Edit -> Join.
    Now you should have a track that contains the bass as well as the melody and both staffs should be filled in the track editor, so you can print both at the same time.
    However, there will be some notes assigned to the wrong staff - very low melody notes will appear in the bass cleff, very high chord notes will appear in the melody cleff - and I don't see how you could fix that in GB.
    Good luck

  • How to save slideshow settings so when I press Ctrl-Enter it does what I want?

    How to save slideshow settings so when I press Ctrl-Enter it does what I want?
    eh?
    R

    I tested what you gave me there Rob. On my Mac I have dual monitors:
    -Only blackens/show slideshow on one monitor (the main monitor, if I move LR to my secondary monitory, the slideshow is still on the first, but the second still runs normal, with LR just sitting there).
    -If I disable slide durration I have to manually advance the slides with the right arrow.
    -I don't have "Lightroom" (or with my current settings any) text on the screen.
    -Does not repeat.
    My Windows machine doesn't have dual monitors, but the others work correctly....
    That is, until I thought about this differently. Since we are looking at changing Slideshow settings, I was naturally in the Slideshow module. But then I remembered the whole point of the Impromtu Slideshow was that you can view slideshow playback from any module. Once I returned to Library and clicked Command/Ctrl+Enter, then I saw exactly what you are talking about. Both monitors are blackened, slide duration is ignored, etc.
    You know why? Because the Impromptu Slideshow uses one of the templates when outside of the Slideshow Module. Which one? Well, Default +, of course. How do you change that? Right-click (Command-click) the slideshow template you'd rather use and select "Use for Impromptu Slideshow".

  • Geotagging - how can I edit new places that I have previously created but with typos, errors etc?  How do I delete a place I have set up?

    Geotagging - how can I edit new places that I have previously created but with typos, errors etc?  How do I delete a place I have set up?  Then I could create a new, correct entry.  I'm using iPhoto '09.

    Is it OK to reply to my own question?? Thanks to the related posts that appeared AFTER I'd made the post above, I learnt about the 'Manage my places' item under the Windows menu. I felt a bit dumb not knowing this.
    BUT it doesn't completely resolve the issue.  The info shown in the EXIF (using opt-cmd-I) under Places has the place name I choose, but it is followed by a few other lines that are incorrect and do not seem to be anything to do with any data I can see under 'Manage my places'.
    Can anyone explain where these other entries might come from, and how to edit them?

    That's interesting--what are you using to convert your file to PDF? Are you using Word? Or are you using the Adobe PDF Pack online service. Please describe your process for converting to PDF, and we'll get to the bottom of this!

  • How to create a 4 page pdf from images - each page should open at same size

    How do I create a 4 page pdf (from 4 images - all the same size) that opens each page at  full page size?
    Thank you so much.
    Ginger
    PREVIOUS MSG:
    My goal is to create multi page pdfs that are created from images (scans of old brochures).  I receive images (scans of pages) all at the same size.
    I have been able to create the 4 pdfs (each opens at full page size) and merge into 1 pdf.  When I open that final pdf, I  see a column of 4 pages, page 1 image being larger than the remaining 3. When I  click on the left, page 1, icon,  I get the full page.  When I click on icons for pages 2 - 4, I get nothing.  The only way I can get the other pages in a full page view is to adjust the scaling after left icon is selected.  That is not what I want.
    How I created the files.
    I can either create pdf pages using Photoshop, or using Acrobat Pro itself through:
    File> Create PDF> From File and adding each of the images.  I then, for each, choose Properties> Initial View> Fit Page> Save. Then I use File> Combine> Merge Files into Single PDF> Save.
    Then I open the multi page pdf.
    I appreciate any help.
    Thank you,
    Ginger
    PREVIOUS MS

    It seems to me what you want to do is create one document which a combination of all four  and then one page of each.
    To create a Document with 4 pages combined in to one PDF.  open the first in a Series the to Edit menu and click on add pages click on next document (browse to document first) the choose attach to to end of document or add to  end of document. Repeat until you get all images added. They will end up (or should ) center in center of their own page. Save this document with a new name for now.
    Next go back to Photo shop and reduce size of images to fit desired sheet of paper (8-1/2 by 11, 8-1/2 by 14, whatever) place them side by side and row by row so you have 4 images on one page.
    now save as Pdf.
    now decide which you want to swap to the Thumbnails (the 4 on one page, or 4 individual pages.  I would use the thumbnails and make each a button that references the page in the document you save as a 4 page pdf that applies.
    Then on that page write a line saying click each illustration to see full size image (you might have to write this line while in Photoshop) then save this as PDF file
    Try out. You might have to use some javascript controls to do this. But I am not experienced in JavaScript to do this. I'm sure it cane be done.
    But note you will have to save both documents with the Thumbnails and the four page and Thumbnail page in a folder and send to prospect
    If you want just four separate pages in one Pdf just do first two paragraphs above

  • How do I create a 300 dpi PDF from a Word 2003 file?

    I need to convert a Word (2003) file to a High-res PDF file for the printers. They have requested 300 dpi.
    I have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (trial version).
    The file contains a number of pictures in jpg format. Most of these are pretty high resolution. The document printed in Word on a laser printer looks fine.
    I did try saving the file a a PDF file, and that did work, however it was low resolution. There must be some settings I have to change. How do I set things so it will creat a high resolution PDF file?

    There is no such thing as resolution of a PDF file. Text and vectors in PDF are preserved and get scaled depending on the device on which PDF is shown.
    Images in PDF do have a resolution that you can set when creating PDF. When printing your file from Word:
    After File>Print, select printer properties.
    In "ADobe PDF Settings" tab, you will see "Default Settings" - click the Edit button next to it.
    In the Images pane, select your desired resolution.

  • Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper)

    Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper). For example, if I am downloading a paper by smith called "Surgery" that was published in 2002, it will automatically set the file name in the download to smith- surgery 2002. I have heard pages is smart enough to do this.
    thank you

    Pages can export only its own documents. They may be exported as PDF, MS Word, RTF or Text files.
    Pages can import (ie. Open a file as, or Insert a file into, a Pages document) documents in several formats, but won't rename the document as you describe. Documents that can be Opened (eg. Text, AppleWorks 6 WP, MS Word files) are converted to Pages documents, and retain their original names, with .pages replacing the original file extension. Files that can be Inserted (generally .jpg, .pdf and other image files) become part of the existing Pages file and lose their names.
    It may be possible, using AppleScript, to extract the text you want and to Save a Pages file using that text as the filename, but that would depend in part on being able to identify which text is wanted and which is not.
    How will the script determine where the author's name begins and where it ends?
    How will the script recognize the beginning and of the title, an decide how much of the title to use in the filename?
    How will the script recognize the year of publication?
    For papers published in a specific journal, with a strict format for placing each of these pieces on information, or containing the needed information as searchable meta data in the file, this might be possible. But it would require knowledge of the structure of these files, and would probably handle only papers published in a specific journal or set of journals.
    Outside my field of knowledge, but there are some talented scripters around here who might want to take a closer look.
    Best of luck.

    Barry

    Hi screen name,
    Adobe PDF printer gets installed when you install Acrobat 10 Pro.
    To use this printer you need to purchase Acrobat. Once the trial period is over you cannot use the printer to create pdf files.
    An alternative way for you is to utilize Microsoft's own inbuilt pdf engine.
    You can simply open the file and select 'Save as' and in the type list select 'pdf'
