IE5.5 / PDF Problem
Software: W2K, IE5.5, Acrobat Reader 5.0, Weblogic Server 6.0, FOP
0.20.1
I'm having a problem getting a FOP 0.20.1 pdf file to be displayed
within IE5.5. The pdf is being produced on Weblogic Server 6.0 using
a jsp, which employs a tag and an ejb to do the FOP transformation.
After invoking the jsp from the browser, the Acrobat splash screen
briefly appears, but the IE window ends up being blank and doesn't
display the pdf. Curiously, the jsp response is written to the
"Temporary Internet Files" folder with a jsp extension. When I paste
it onto the desktop, it then has a pdf extension and can be
successfully opened by Acrobat.
I've found two work-arounds: 1) serialize the pdf file on the server
side and then use a redirect to successfully access it (i.e.,
in-place-activation in IE5 then works); 2) deselect the "Display PDF
in Browser" option in Acrobat and get the pdf file to be displayed in
a separate Acrobat window. However, these work-arounds don't meet our
requirements.
I've accessed the Microsoft, Adobe and BEA websites to find a solution
to this. BEA does have a document which explains that Weblogic Server
will write blank lines at the top of the file returned by the server
due to successive tags on separate lines at the top of the jsp file.
The problem can be avoided by putting these tags on the same line,
which I did. Before doing so, IE displayed the raw file. After the
"fix", all I got was the blank screen.
Interestingly enough, Netscape seems impervious to this problem. The
pdf is embedded within the browser window, even with the blank lines
at the top of the file returned by the server.
I've uninstalled/reinstalled Acrobat, upgraded IE5.5 so that it has
the latest patches, and have tried using IE 5.5 from several different
machines, all with no success.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated ....

Send more details:
Presumably you are sending the PDF to the browser by writing it to the
response.getOutputStream ?
Are you setting the mime type to "application/pdf" ?
Try setting to mime type to text and looking at what is displayed on the
browser. If there are any stray carriage returns in the response (caused by
Weblogic JSP processor when it does an import) you will see that the first
bytes of the first line are not
%PDF
so Acrobat can become confused. If this is the case check the bea site for
how to remove these stray carriage returns.

PDF problems in Acrobat 9 Pro
here's an example of the dots, and yes I have updated acrobatYou're asking a lot of ancient Acrobat to work with an Office that never existed when it was made. "Just updated my office suite" is a massive change, and Window 8 didn't exist at that time either...

PDF problem part 2...
I guess a lot of people are having pdf problems.
When I export a pdf of a Travel Journal doc and view with adobe reader 7.0, the borders on the photos are not there.
What is the word on this?
As you can see I don't have Tiger /PDF-X.
ThanksNot certain if this is quite the same thing, but.......
I have found problems when exporting to pdf, not when I open in Preview but when the person I am emailing the file to opens it in Acrobat, as all drop shadows are then lost, this makes professional printing difficult.
Resolved it for the moment by:
1. exporting to pdf as normal
2. using Graphic Converter which comes bundled with OSX to create a PSD file and sending that electronically. Slight problem was that the size of the file increased from 3mb to about 27mb, so had to download a free copy of Cyberduck ftp programme too. In fact saving it to jpeg was just about as good.
3. you do have to do one page at a time but it works. -
Illustrator Save to PDF problems
I have Illustrator CS 14.0.0 and Acrobat Pro 9 (9.1.1 to be specific) extended and I cannot save the pdf format from Illustrator. I try over and over and it just does not work... it just locks up Illustrator forcing me to use the Windows XP task manager to kill Illustrator becuase it is simply frozen and I have no other options. The failure is happening with large and small files of any complexity. I would like to make use of the streamlined workflows in CS4... but his problem is big headache - especially if I would like to include special aspects of Illustrator features in the PDF file. The failure happen with save-as and with the basic save PDF. I was able to open (more or less like an import) the .ai file after saving from within Acrobat and that seems to be a work around for now. Is ther any updates for Acrobat or Illustrator to fix this save as PDF problem inside Illustrator CS4??
I am experiencing exactly the same problem as reported in this thread. I am using AI CS4. When I try to save to PDF the programme freezes making it necessary to use the task manager to kill it. I have been trying to identify the folders where the preferences are held but on this computer running windows xp the folder names do not match those in the thread. Is there a specific file name that I can search for?

Hello,
I have encountered a problem when viewing pdfs exported from photoshop cs4 using acrobat pro 9. If I open single pdf, it's ok, but whenever I open another pdf, all text is jagged. Then if I close all pdfs and try opening the second one, it's ok again. It looks like acrobat is not able to render texts correctly in newly opened pdf when another pdf is already opened.
This happens only with pdfs exported from photoshop (file->save as->pdf). It does not really matter if the first opened pdf is from photoshop or not, all other opened pdfs from photoshop are crapy.
I tried different settings when saving pdf but the results are always the same - jagged type (it does not even look like aliased, it's completely screwed and unreadable) in second pdf. It is funny because text present as smart object from illustrator renders fine all the time. Therefor I think the problem is between photoshop export and acrobat, vectors are rendered with no problems.
I tried opening on different pc (also with acrobat 9 pro) with the same result. Systems are vista on exporting pc, the second pc is running windows7 beta. However on the third pc with windows XP and adobe reader 9 everything works fine.
Any ideas how to make this work?
regards,
embeeYou need to ask the Acrobat folks.
The PDF's out of Photoshop are all pixels -- there's no text for Acrobat to render.
And there's nothing special about PDFs from Photoshop.
So my best guess is that you're looking at an Acrobat bug. -
Email id geterates in PDF Problem

Possible variable substitution ignored. Variable 'gmail' not found. for any email id.
some times the dat is going in to loop that crashing the adobe server. Because the of its generating temp file.
Please help me to solve this solution.
Thanks
NaveenPrint Agent will
recognize @gmail as a variable definition and since it cannot find the variable gmail
it throws an error message.
To use reserved characters as plain text you need to use special variables (page 291 in documentation) and for email addresses that would ean that you replace your @ with @at. like this:

This is true. Adobe Reader 2.5 does not support this. Apparently Adobe Reader 1.5 does, but with 2.5 in firmware, you will be unable to downgrade. The only solution I know is a third party program called PDF+ . See http://www.mbrainsoftware.com/S60_3rd/Pdf/Details.htm#Editions . You would need at least the standard version.

Dunning as PDF - Problem with output
Hi experts,
I have a problem with the dunning as email.
Everything works fine here with the dífferent threads (BTE 1040) - but the output is not in PDF-format. When I look at SOST, the attachment ist in *.EXT format...
Does anybody know what's the problem?
Thanks
Michael
Additional information: The file is an .pdf file - when I save it as .pdf, I can open it normally...Hi,
In transaction SCOT, check the format for Sapscript/Smartforms. Double click on the node for email. e.g .SMTP. In the pop-up window there is a section for supported address types. Beside 'Internet', click on the button SET. In here select PDF as the output format for Sapscript/Smartforms and for ABAP lists.
Also in SCOT, check Setttings -> Device types for Format Conversion, ensure that PDF is the target format.

Sapscript output(Spool) to PDF problem when viewed
We have a number of documents which are output in Russian using the Cyrillic courier font within our Uincode SAP system. They look fine on the spool when viewed, print okay, and all look fine when converted to a PDF file (using RSTXPDFT4) and viewed via Adobe PDF viewer (vers 9.1.20), except one form, the invoice, which will not display properly in Adobe, showing square blocks with crosses through them when viewed. The strange thing is that when this same PDF is viewed via Sumatra (Open source PDF viewer) it looks perfect, but will not display via the Adobe PDF viewer, even though all the other delivery/dispatch docuemnts (all Sapscript) print and view fine via the Adobe PDF viewer.
I guess I could suggest that we just use Sumatra from now on, but that is not really the answer when you have a multinational company which has Adobe already installed on all hardware as default.
Has anyone come across this problem before. I was wondering if there could be anything in Sapscript that might have caused this as this is a copy of SAP standard Russian Invoice Sapscript (J_3RVINVOICE)?
I'm going to check OSS to see if there's a fault with the PDF convertion program (RSTXPDFT4) but I would like to hear from anyone that may have encountered the same problem.

How the issue is resolved, please let me know. Since i am also facing same issue.

Hi, I got my curve 8900 a few weeks ago and it's definately the best phone I have ever had, but I've just hit a bit of a problem. I had all of my calendar appointments sorted out perfectly; College exams and revision sessions, Birthdays, events etc. I have just set up my Email settings and Facebook settings to recieve emails and notifications straight to my phone. This has all gone smoothly, apart from the fact that this seems to have messed up my calendar. All of the appointments are still there, but they have changed colours so that I have default, email and facebook appointments.
This wouldn't really be a problem, but I am using a theme that shows me calendar appointments on the home screen and it only shows calendar events that have been set to email (even though the appointments have nothing to do with my email account, the phone just randomly put the events into the three catagories!)
Also, if i try to make a new event for the calendar, it asks me what I want to send the event using?? What does this mean? If I pick email, does it send the event to my contacts via my email? If I pick facebook, will it post the events on my profile? I would rather just keep my calendar private...
I just wanted to ask if there was a way to turn off all these features and return back to my original calendar, but still be able to have my emails and facebook notifications on my phone?
Also, does any one know any decent free PDF reading software for the blackberry?
Cheers,
Warren.Have you previewed this way -
Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
what is the physical size and what are the pixel dimensions of the photo with the low quality warning?

PDF problem in Preview after upgrading to Yosemite in MacBook Pro Late 2011
After upgrading to Yosemite , i have a problem viewing PDF's.
When opening high resolution PDF's e.g. 2588 x 3368, it will display distorted image or distorted characters.
and scrolling normal resolution PDF is very slow.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thank you very much!Sounds like Notifications app.
Maybe some other app. In SystemPreferences->Users&Groups->LoginItems tab: remove all entries with the minus sign underneath. This will not uninstall anything, you have to start those apps by hand now. Restart.
Still there?
Yes: Restart again while holding the shift key, this will start the mac in SafeMode: only the necessary items are loaded to run.
Still there?
Yes: Make an etrecheck list and post it here.
No: Restart, put the items in the LoginItems back, one by one, restart after each entry, and you will find the "culprit"
Please report accordingly. I will be back in 24 hours.
