I cant convert PowerPoint to PDF it keeps showing no text etc why?

I am unable to convert PowerPoint to a PDF. This should be a simple selection of Save As Type and select PDF. But when it converts it then show the design only but no content in the document.
I have not had issues before this past week as I recall. Can someone help me maybe my settings are off?
Thanks!

"Save as" from PowerPoint?  In this case, it is a PowerPoint problem.
Adobe Reader cannot perform such a conversion, except from PDF to text.

  • Cannot convert Powerpoint to PDF in greyscale because there is no adobe option on the printing dropdown screen

    How can I convert Powerpoint to PDF in greyscale - there is no adobe option on the printing dropdown screen?

    Creating PDF from PowerPoint by printing to AdobePDF produces lousy PDF. All transparency is lost. Use the “Save as Adobe PDF” feature installed by Acrobat as a plug-in into Microsoft Office applications.
    Once you have the PDF file created, within Acrobat you can use the Convert Colors tool under Print Production to convert to grayscale.

  • How do I convert .txt to .pdf and keep the formatting

    I have a large .txt file that I would like to convert to .pdf.  I have tried to print the file and choose Adobe PDF but the output is just a mess.  I loose all the formatting and get blank pages every so often.  Does anyone know if is possible to convert .txt to .pdf and keep the formatting.  I would try a virtual printer application but I am not able to just install any application on my office computer.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    It may be a bit late for you now but in future (and for anyone else interested) I would recommend copying the text into a word document and changing the text font to Consolas. Adjust the size to fit the page again and it should match the original notepad formatting.

    HI,
    Please let me know if you have seen any errors when you tried to convert your file to PDF file.
    Are you using Adobe Reader X or Reader XI?  Or are you using our Web UI at https://createpdf.acrobat.com/signin.html?

  • Publisher pdf won't show colored text

    Using Reader 11.5 and Publisher 10 in Windows 7. Text colored red in a text box to differentiate it from the black text in Publisher only shows up as a shade of grey when file is saved as a pdf. Color graphics are saved in their colored form as expected.  Why??  How do I get Reader to show the text color like it does the pictures?

  • Convert Powerpoint to PDF

    I have created a poster in Powerpoint and need to convert it to a pdf. However when I convert the file to a pdf all of my photos on the powerpoint slide disappear on the pdf.  How do I keep all of my photos when converting?

    They may not be gone, but just not visible because you do not have "view large images" turned on. I am not sure why JPeg or Png were suggested, it does not answer your question and JPegs have had created problems in PDFs.

  • Converting FM to PDF results in thumbnail-sized text area in the PDF

    I'm having an issue with converting FM files to PDF. I'm using all the same settings I had been using previously, but now my PDFs appear with the text and images smooshed together in a thumbnail version of the source page. The PDF page size is 8.5 x 11, which is the size of my source FM file. So the thumbnail appears in the middle of a regular sized page in the PDF. (I'm sorry this is difficult to explain what's happening, which is probably why I can't find anything after searching the forums).
    Does anyone know what is going on? I've got an aggressive deadline and troubleshooting this issue is getting me no where.

    To help out in trouble shooting, could you supply details on your FM and Acrobat versions, and your OS?
    Also if you're using the full version of Acrobat, or the limited version that ships with FM.
    And at a really basic level, is your system default printer set to the Acrobat printer.
    And in FM, on the Print dialog box, is there any chance that you have the Thumbnail option activated?

  • Trouble converting powerpoint files with png images to pdf-Can someone help?

    Hello all,
    In my line of work, I create and modify large sized posters that are created in powerpoint. I would have the files print ready by converting them to pdf. I usually have little to no issues executing this. However, I have been dealing with an issue of converting ppt files with png images. The size of the ppt is typically a 42x56 file. The several ways to convert to pdf produces an error each time. Png images are very useful as they provide much clarity vs jpegs or tiffs. The 3 ways I have tried below are:
    A) File>Print>Adobe PDF>High Quality print settings/300dpi results to an error message that says:
         "Windows cannot print due to a problem with the current print setup. Try one of the following:
         *Check the printer by printing a test page from Windows.
         *Make sure the printer is turned on and online.
         *Reinstall the printer driver"
         A blank pdf opens up (Selected to open file after publishing)
    B) File>Save as> Change file type as a pdf results in nothing happening. No pdf is produced.
    C) Acrobat>Create PDF results to an error message that says: "An unexpected error occured. PDFMaker was unable to produce the Adobe PDF."
    Again, this all happens with ppt files with png images. I took out the png images and attempted to convert to pdf, and the pdf is produced! 
    Can anyone provide any assistance in creating pdfs with png images or what settings I need to adjust? I am able to covert every other image type (jpeg, tiff, bmp), except for png images.
    I am using Microsoft Office 2010 with Adobe Acrobat X on Windows 7 (This happened on Windows XP as well).

    >I have a 48 slide presentation that has a small .png image in the "slide
    >master" so it will show up on every page.
    PowerPoint only has to store one instance of the image even thought it is
    displayed on multiple slides. But Acrobat can't do the same, the image has
    to be stored for every page that it appears on, so that would explain the
    larger file size.
    Acrobat is supposed to be able to optimize the storage of common background
    images (at least that's the message I see when I do a "Save as..."), but I
    have yet to see it to work. Maybe it depends on the application the orginal
    file is created in and the PDF conversion method used.
    Adding the image into a PDF file later as a watermark instead may be a way
    to keep the size down (then it really only does store the object once),
    though I believe that watermark images will appear in front of everything
    else on the page (not sure if that's a problem for you, it depends on
    whether any text or objects in the presentation ever appear in front of the
    image).
    What are the dimensions and resolution of the image in PowerPoint? You may
    be able to go as low as 75 dpi and not notice a difference, it depends on
    whether the image contains any areas of high contrast or text.

    Hi Joel,
    The feature you are looking for, is currently not available in Acrobat.
    But you can create an interactive link (to open Word/Excel) using Acrobat. Please look at the following link:

  • Keep the same name while converting images to PDF

    I am using Automator to convert images to PDF. The new images are in a different folder, but it is asking for an output file name. Can't I tell it to just keep the same name as the old file?

    leaving the exact format, can you explain what does it mean by correctly formed Arabic fonts ?
    What I did is created a text document in Arabic and converted it to PDF and the same file is converted back to word and the results were all junk..

  • I cant convert exxel files to PDF

    I cant convert exxel files to PDF

    You can only convert files to PDF if you have a purchased subscription of Adobe PDF Pack. Please see the status of your account under My Account tab of the app.
    If you are a paid subscriber, are you seeing an error during conversion? We have identified a recent problem with some regional formats like Japanese and Danish. Please try and change the Region Format under Settings->General->International to United States to resolve the failures.
    Thanks
