ID CS6v8 -- Blank pages, missing text, slanted cursor, etc.

Having very strange problems with a file.
1. I am getting blank pages where I had completed a layout (yes, I can see elements in Layers and some items reappear if I turn off some items called <group>, but not all.
2. Some pages have missing items. 3. Some pages have text boxes that appear blank where text was previously visible. When I try to repopulate the text box I get a slanted cursor. I can see the text in Story Editor.
3. When I try to populate art boxes, nothing is visible even though it shows up in layers, but not in links.
I think these are somehow related because they all happened at the same time to the same group of pages. The rest of the document, containing the same type of elements, seems fine.
This is a large, complex document. HELP!!!!

Sorry to say that this did not help. In fact, every time I tried to do this, it crashed IND. So, I have deleted the pages that were problematic, added in new pages, and recreated the damaged 10 pages of my document.
NOT A HAPPY CAMPER.
The worst of it is that I have no idea what caused the problem, no way to correct it, and no way to prevent it from happening again.

When I save a Word 2010 doc as a pdf file, it opens up in Adobe Reader as a blank page, no text, no background etc.

When I save a Word 2010 doc as a pdf file, it opens up in Adobe Reader as a blank page, no text, no background etc. I am logged on as the Administrator, running Windows 7, using Microsoft Home and Business 2010.

You were right, it was a Microsoft problem.
I got it...I am now able to save a Word 2010 document as a pdf file. Here is what I did/found:
In Word, go to File, Options, Display and make sure that "Print drawing created in word" is CHECKED.
Mine was unchecked and when I checked it everything came back and is working as it did before. The only thing I can think of is that a Microsoft Update may have changed this selection...I know I DID NOT make any changes in the options.
One other thing I noticed in my saved documents folders was that a lot of my files showed up as PDF's and would still not open until I selected one and told it to default to open as a word document and then they all changed back and I was able to open them in word again.
I hope this helps others out there.

Rotating image, decomposition page, recognizing text... etc.

Hi,
Each time I open new pdf file, there is a small pop-uo with black background on the right bottom of the file indicating some operations: rotating image, decomposition page, recognizing text... as here:
These popups appear automatically, even if the document is in good quality! Meanwhile I can't navigate the document! I have to wait until the end of these processes (this could take longtime depending on the size of file) !
Does anybody know how to deactivate these popups?
Thanks.

I had this problem in Acrobat Pro 9.4.5 and just figured out how to fix it: It is related to a "read out loud" setting.
Apparently Acrobat OCR's the document just to figure out in which order it should be read aloud, and there's no way to disable this. The document I was having trouble with does have equations in it, so whether or not this takes long enough to be annoying may depend on whether the document contains things that are hard for OCR to process.
You can fix it by editing preferences for "Reading" and change Reading Order to "Left-to-right, top-to-bottom..." instead of "Infer reading order from document (recommended)". Then make sure Screen Reader Options is set to "Only read the currently visible pages".
Best, J

Internet pages missing text & pictures?

Always pictures missing form each website?

I am unable to enter text into the message section
This problem could be caused by some Launch Services cache or preferences corruption that affects the built-in spell checker. The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services -- the notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved:
Resetting Launch Services
If you prefer using a cache cleaning utility instead of following the manual procedure described in the previous article, this other article provides links to some utilities that can be used for troubleshooting and cache cleaning:
Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
It seems that the most appropriate utility for solving this particular problem is Tiger Cache Cleaner, but you may also want to consider other utilities, such as OnyX, or Cache Out X, which are free. Whatever utility you choose, be sure to read this first:
Side effects of System cache cleaning
As an example, this is how you should proceed with OnyX:
1. Quit all applications.
2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
3. Click Maintenance. In the Reset section, check LaunchServices database.
4. You may uncheck any other pre-checked options if you wish.
5. Click the Execute button.
6. Restart the computer.

IE 11 on windows 7 64bit full of blank pages/thumbnails on Youtube, Facebook etc.

I have reinstalled ie 11 with no luck....turned off antivirus/firewall....even flashplayer help page "check now" in non responsive. No clouds or tree either at the bottom of the page: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html Facebook has no content. Now even clicking to login causes the browser to crash. Youtube thumbnails have no picture and are unresponsive....show pictures is checked in settings as well as GPU renedering. All settings reset to default and cache cleared. Virus and several sybot etc have been run. Everything works fine on Google chrome browser.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Facebook photos only use Flash Player when uploading multiple photos. Viewing photos (and thumbnails) is done with HTML and javascript. There's something else in play here, and it's most likely the User Agent Strings in Internet Exploder 11.
Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser. User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video. Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome). Problem is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Facebook can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess thay've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE... Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
Firefox (from Mozilla)
Opera (from Opera)
Safari (from Apple)
Chrome (from Google)
ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

Blank slides & missing content from Windows PPT to the mac

When I open PowerPoint files from the PC on the mac in PowerPoint 2011, there are blank pages/missing content. When I open in PowerPoint 2008 on the mac it's fine. I've removed duplicated fonts, and checked under a different user profile - but it still persists. Ideas??? I don't really want to use 2008 for slides...

Suggest you post on the Microsoft Mac forums since you're not having issues with any Apple product: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac

Pressing Enter Button Gives a Blank Page while Cursor is in Text Field

Hi,
I have a problem on my jsp page that there is a text filed (input type="text") and a button (input type="button") to submit the page.
When page loads the cursor blinks in the text field, and at the same moment if i hit the enter button of my keyboard it gives a blank page.
Here the button on page does not clicked by this enter button, no script calls neither the page submitted to the given url.
Kindly suggest what is going wrong.
Thanks in Advance
Rajiv K.

I'd come across this issue a while back: [http://tipsandtricks.nogoodatcoding.com/2007/07/html-single-text-field-submit-caveat.html]; when there is only a single text field in a form, then pressing enter causes a submit with the text-field as the initiator. The submit button isn't invoked. This means any onsubmit actions will not be called. A simple way out is to put in a dummy text field in the form and set it's display to none (using CSS/styling)

Performing OCR text recognition in all pages of a PDF document which has blank pages

The PDF pages in the file are scanned as an image, but there are blank pages also. So, page 1, 2 have images of scanned text, page 3 is blank, pages 4, 5, have images of scanned text, page 6 is blank and so on.The series of blank pages is 3, 6, 9....
I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro version 9 on Windows XP. I choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->All pages. But, the OCR stops after page 2.
Then, I go to page 4 and find that it is still an image(and I cannot copy the text from it). So, then I have to choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->All pages. But, the OCR stops after page 6.
The document has some 200 pages and I don't want to manually do the choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->All pages for all pages which have text.
I also tried choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->Page 1 to page 200, but that too does not work.
I can manually go to each blank page, delete it, then do the OCR but that would be tedious.
1. Am I missing something in doing the OCR of all pages?
2. Can I set up a batch process to do the delete of blank page series or can I set up a batch process which does OCR of all pages(and does not stop at a blank page) as it is doing now?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hm, you could convert every pdf-page to a image file (jpeg, etc.):
-install the package imagemagick
-use the command convert
convert -trim -density 150 your.pdf your.jpg
This will generate a jpg-file for every pdf-page; "-trim" removes the white margins, density specifies the resolution of the page (you could also try "-resize" instead of "-density") and 150 specifies amount of dots per inch.
This does not generate a new pdf-file, but maybe there is a way to convert the images back into a single pdf?

Missing and blank pages in my .ascm ebook in Adobe Digital Editions

Hello,
I am having some trouble with an ebook I just bought on booktopia.com.au
Some pages don't seem to be loading. It is not just blank white pages, but no page visible at all in some places, just the grey background of Adobe Digital Editions.
I found this adobe troubleshooting page which seems very promising:
Blank pages or missing images when you read digital content (Digital Editions)
yet when I follow the instructions Adobe Reader 7 is not an option to download, even though that is what this page tells me to do. As it is, I have Adobe Reader XI, but since the file I am having trouble with is an .ascm file, not a .pdf, I don't know how Adobe Reader would help at all.
I am using Windows 8.1 on a PC.
If anyone could help me get to the bottom of this, I would be very grateful.

There might be two parts to the answer. First, from what you saw, you can
get ebooks to ADE without the ereader attached. The ereader might not be
supported by ADE, and because you've 'been through the steps several
times', I think that is probably the reason.
Second, the ebook you're attempting to transfer (which is what I'm reading
into your wording) may be DRM-protected, and may not be transferrable. You
can check this by looking at the Item Info of the ebook. When you're in
Library mode, put your cursor on the small arrow next to the ebook name. A
drop-down menu will appear, and you can choose 'Item Info' from the list.
Click on that, and a screen will appear showing you where the ebook is and
the properties assigned by the publisher to it. If the 'copy' parameter
says no, then you have your answer.
Hope this helps!

Cannot print -- random text & blank pages when printing -- HP Color Laserjet 3600N

Apple Support Community,
I'm having some trouble connecting my computer and printer via a network connection. The printer functions fine among other computers (Mac, PC) connected via a network connection, but one particular MacBook is giving me trouble.
I can get the printer and laptop to connect, however when I try to print, it gets buggy on me. Usually it will print a page with some random text, followed by an excess amount of blank pages, then another page with text similar to the first. The text usually has information including font types and other formatting data, but not what was "printed."
I have tried to update the printer drivers, but I cannot get the printer utility to utalize them. After installing the most recent drivers, it will continue to suggest the generic laser printer drivers (1.0 verison), or I can choose other printer drivers (including "base" 3000 model drivers), but the 3600N drivers are not avalible on the list. Both the generic drivers and the HP drivers give me the random text upon printouts.
The laptop is a MacBook Pro with 10.6.
What is the best course of action to remedy the printer problem?
Thanks!
Jel.

Over the holidays, I spent a couple of hours on the phone with HP, a couple with Microsoft, and previously with Apple. Microsoft said they are working on updates, should be fixed by the release of Office 2008. Apple says there's a compatibility issue among the HP printer and Leopard and "some" programs. HP tells me it's an "old" printer (which they were happy to sell me in April 2007) and they may not release new drivers. HP also says Apple knows there are printing issues.
In the meantime, I'm using Pages and shopping for a new non-HP printer.

Pages 5.2 Table missing text when printed

I created a document with several tables. These tables contain algebra formulas with superscript. I read in another forum that the issue may be the use of the superscript. However their problem only occurred when printing the document as a PDF. I am having the problem printing from both Pages and as a PDF. Some superscript appears as it should. Not all missing text is superscript.
Any ideas? I hate to have to recreate this document in Word. I took me forever to create.
Mavericks 10.9.3
Pages 5.2

Known limitation with Pages v5.2. If you had Pages ’09 installed before the upgrade downgrade to Pages v5.2, it was moved to /Applications/iWork ’09.
You will need to export from Pages v5.2 as Pages ’09 in order to process your work in the older Pages version. You will also need to open the Pages ’09 document either through that Applications file chooser, or via the right-click, contextual menu Open with > Pages (4.3). Double-clicking with both Pages installed will default to using Pages v5.2.
LibreOffice is a free alternative to MS Word, and works better with Mavericks than does OpenOffice.

Using Create PDF from Web Page; Resulting PDF is missing text

Trying to create pdf's from various web pages. Generally process works very well but some pages have missing text and bad formatting.   Specifically; http://www.robinhood.ca/Recipes/Occasions/Spring/Apricot-Tartlets
When I create the PDF; I am missing the text under "directions" and the description is truncated and forced to the far right.
Seems like I am missing a formatting or font setting but I have adjusted everything I can think of and have had no luck.
Running Acrobat Pro XI.
Anybody have any thoughts?

yes; looking at the source; seems that <table> is being captured correctly but the part that is missing is a <div>.    I'm not an expert at deciphering the page source but seems like that is the problem.
Is there a work around?
when I print via the firefox plugin it prints fine. but i ultimately want to capture several layers on the site if I can get the formatting resolved.

PDF missing text when browsing or linking to a page

Hello,
I have an issue with missing text in a PDF file when I try and browse directly to a page in a PDF. Interestingly, the text is not missing when you open the PDF and navigate to the same page from within the PDF. The first Character(s) of the title are missing.
The title of this page should say Criminal Justice, but the "C" is missing when you visit this link--
http://www.northeast.edu/Degrees-and-Programs/pdfs/2010-Catalog.pdf#page=103
This only happens if you try to navigate directly to a page. If you use the pagers within the PDF then the text is fine. If you change the link in the url to represent the page you are trying to visit, the characters disappear again.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Thanks!
Derek
