Images won't embed to pdf

I've recently upgraded from CS6 to CC. I create various marketing pieces that we send out to our printer and every file I create now no longer embedds images. You can view the pdf fine between machines but the embedded image that the printer needs seems to disappear. So it preserves the link but does not embed the image.
I've been using "Press Quality" preset to save my pdfs in the past and I've been fine. But now I've upgraded every time I send a file to the printer, they come back saying the images are missing. I've later opened the pdf and ran preflight and sure enough it says no image. I looked at older files that I've previouly saved with the same settings in CS6 and preflight shows the images.
So there is some setting that I've changed and I don't know what. Any one have any advice on how to get my linked images to embed? Also it's not just my .pdfs. When I create an .eps from a native .ai file only the link is saved (meaning when someone else gets it the image on another computer, the link is missing). I've never had to package my Illustrator files before and I don't want to have to start doing it since it is not a function of Illy.
Thanks

The problem with save as is the files are still huge. They need to be high res. for print. It also doesn't work in Photoshop so that is why I came here. Both Crash. The ones I receive are high res and print to pdf files.
I still would like to know if i need a driver?

Images won't show in pdf file

I create a file in Publisher and insert images as .gif files (have also saved as .jpeg). No problem. But as soon as I convert them over to pdf the image is replaced by a gray box. Now if I print the pdf file the images show and print just fine. Why would they change during conversion? Also this just started today. When I left work on Friday my images were just fine in pdf. The only thing I was attempting to do was adjust the display preferences so the pages started out smaller rather than zoomed out to 151%, which it was defaulting too.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks so much. I have no idea how that got turned off, but it was.
Thanks again

Image won't print on pdf form.

I copied an image (jpeg) onto my pdf form. When I print the form the image doesn't print. The handles around the image are blue instead of black. Can I somehow embed this image onto the form?

kreichrt,
I would suggest re-regestering the NI-Reports DLL by:
Start » Run, then type regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\shared\NI-Reports\NiReports.dll". If this does not help, please provide more information on you version of LabVIEW, operating system, and if the shipping examples that come with LabVIEW work correctly.

Why won't Save as PDF work?

iPhoto hangs up on the first photo book page with an image containing a warning triangle if I try to use Save as PDF. Has anyone else had this happen? I presume it means that the image won't send to the printer, either? Yet, The Missing Manual says you can send photos with warning triangles and let them be printed blurry. Who knows about this? I'd appreciate real experience. Thanks.

Can I embed 3D PDFs in an InDesign document?

"Can I embed 3D PDFs in an InDesign document and the export the document as a PDF with the 3D surviving the process?"

3D PDFs are quite rare, and I've never actually viewed one, even though I work with PDFs all the time.
However, I'm certain that InDesign has no concept of 3D artwork. Most images are not embedded but are linked.
For these reasons, I think it would impossible for you to place it and export it, preserving the 3D.

Can you embed a PDF into a Captivate 8 project?

Hi,
Can you embed a PDF document into a captivate project?
I know i shouldnt compare, but in Articulate Story Line, you are able to add 'resourses' into the project which sit alongside the eLearning to provide further reading.
Can you do this in Captivate? but without it linking to an external sourse such as local or shared drive?
Thanks
Chris

To tmpe222,
I'm not a Cp expert, but it seems to me that there's no sense in simply trying to stick a pdf document in the Scorm package. What good would that do? The file would be in the package, but that doesn't mean it would be 'embedded in the project' in any meaningful sense of the term.
I don't know of any way to embed a pdf document directly into a Cp project. But couldn't you simply convert the pdf file into an image (jpeg or gif)? This you could easily insert in your project. It would be inserted as a standard object. And then you could do all the nice things that you can do with any object: put it on slide to be accessed only if the participant wants to view it; use effects so that it enters nicely; add annotation . . . the sky's the limit.
Does this help at all, or am I on the wrong track?
Best regards,
Marvin DuBois

How can I embed a pdf file into the body of an email?

How can I embed a pdf file into the body of an email?

The problem is defining what it even means to “embed” a PDF file in the body of an e-mail, especially if you are dealing with a multiple page PDF file.
E-mail is either pure text, rich text (something akin to RTF in Word), or HTML. PDF is not compatible with any of these. Thus, to embed a PDF file, something has to be converted and that means the PDF would be converted to a less graphically rich raster format. But is that what you would really want?
I think that the MacOS and iOS e-mail clients do under some circumstances place an attached PDF file within HTML segments and by clicking on same, you get the equivalent of extracting the full PDF file, but I have no real experience with that.
Another alternative is HTML with a proxy image with a hyperlink to an external PDF file that is invoked when you click on the hyperlink.
Perhaps you can explain what you are really trying to accomplish and what the recipient of such an e-mail's actual experience would be?

Embed Word/PDF Documents in Documaker 12.1

Hi
We have a requirement to embed word/PDF documents during runtime . The path for the PDF/Word document comes as an input in a XML node and we would need to have them embeded/inserted in between the formset. We use Documaker 12.1 ODEE and would like to know if there is any built in utilites/rules that would support adding word/PDF documents during run-time. The documents can be inserted anywhere on the policy package. Though the Rules reference manual says the rule AddMultipageBitmap can be used to embed word/PDF, it doesn't seems to work with them in UNIX. It works perfeclty well for TIFF images. Let us know if we would need to add entries in the INI files to support the rule to embed word/PDF documents.
Any other approach out of the box is also appreciated. Thanks in advance..

Hi,
If it is Linux or Solaris the Word attachment to the document should work out-of-the-box with configuration. For AIX the Oracle Outside In Image Export runtime component that converts the documents for most document types (except for specific types of TIFF) needs a X11 DISPLAY context with user authorization for which to run the rule in because that what it uses to do the conversion to an image.
Is this AIX you are trying to do this on? If so the ODEE installer for 12.1.x sets a DISPLAY variable in the docfactory.sh startup script in a section for that platform that you would have use to point to a X11 Motif or Lesstif DISPLAY (e.g. my.server.com:2) that has a running X11 server. VNC server option will work also so that the system can remain headless.
I thought that the Oracle Documaker Enterprise Edition document covers this requirement under its attachments notes, not sure.
See documentation on Oracle Outside In Image Export for supported documents it can handle and platforms.
I am not sure if the version Oracle Documaker uses but here is a document reference for v8.3.5 for the Unix particulars, http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14154_01/dev.835/e12885/c03_unix.htm .
SCCOPT_RENDERING_PREFER_OIT settings referenced in the above document is only option on Solaris SPARC and Linux x86_32 platforms according to the Oracle Outside In Image Export Developer's Guide for v8.3.5 (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14154_01/dev.835/e12885.pdf).

Image aliasing when exporting print PDF at 300 ppi (bicubic downsampling)

Hello,
i am trying to describe a problem which persists since version CS3 of InDesign. It's about aliased edges in images in a certain angle; occuring when exporting the brochure as PDF file (at 300 ppi). The placed images are always at a higher quality than needed (for example 780 ppi effective). The aliasing is not there when opening the original image files in photoshop (viewing at 100%).
The PDF export settings are:
- Compression: Bicubic downsampling to300 ppi for images above 350 ppi (for color images, grayscale images and monochrome images)
- Crop Image data to frames
- Marks: Crop Marks and Page Information
- Output: No Color Conversion
- Advanced: Transparency Flattener: High Resolution
- Compatibility: Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3)
- PDF /X-3:2002
Below are two screenshots
- The left one was the original image, downsampled to 216 mm in width using automatic bicubic downsampling
- The right one is the result when exporting a InDesign Document with the same width to a PDF with the mentioned settings
Downsampled in Photoshop CS6 to 216 mm width
Exported from InDesign CS6 with mentioned settings
I have no clue what happens here, but it looks like the internal downsampling of InDesign CS6 is not very good.
When i write a PostScript file of the brochure and put it in Distiller (with the same PDF Preset as above), the image looks like the one made with Photoshop. So this problem has to lie somwhere deep in InDesign or it's settings.
Anybody with similar experiences?

Something about your test looks off. The export from ID and export from PS PDFs are both zoomed at 1200%, but the export from ID vrsion is 90% smaller.
Yeah I noticed that I actually had the image in InDesign scaled @ 90%, so the effective ppi was around 650. I get the same jagged results when I use anything other than a 300 or 600 effective ppi. Whereas if I use a 650ppi image in Photoshop and export to PDF, it downsamples smoothly.
Rob Day wrote:
The diagonal lines in your test are 1 pixel so at 300ppi to an offset press at 150lpi, the lines would be less than a halftone dot so I'm pretty sure you would need a loupe to see any difference. Maybe with a stochastic screen there would be better resolution but still difficult to see. So if the printing is that good I would just export without down sampling. With disk space running at 15 cents a gigabyte there's not much to gain with a downsample.
It becomes noticeable with some images more than others, but I'm printing a lot of images of buildings and drawings with sharp lines that converge to a point, or are distinguishable in the full size image but indistinguishable when downsampled. This can introduce distracting patterns when they aren't downsampled smoothly, something like this:
Unfortunately the printers near me aren't very good, so I'm having things printed online, and this particular printer (blurb.com - for a small job) won't accept large PDFs without compressed/downsampled images :/ I'm making 300dpi versions of the really crucial images for the time being, but I'm hoping there is a better solution!
The other issue is exporting the PDF for use on the web, either as a download or on an online PDF viewer like issuu.com. The two PDFs on the right side of my test look much better in these situations. Is there any disadvantage to using Distiller to make my PDFs for this purpose using the Device Independent setting? I don't have any special interactive elements.

Adjust Image Won't work

Hi:
I'm New to Keynote and I started to work with it and when I go to adjust an image nothing happens. Its like the controls are all frozen...Its strange because I have iPhoto too and all of the image adjust controls disappeared for that. Anyway, any help would be appreciated. Thank You, Norman
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Strange. I know that adjust won't work on .pdf files, so let's get an image that we know you shouldn't have a problem with. Control click .mac above and choose "Copy Image"), paste that into Keynote and see if you can adjust it.

Won't embed font due to licensing restrictions

Trying to work with the Chinese font provided on a MAC called HeitiStd, however when I try to make a PDF I get the error message: won't embed font due to licensing restrictions.
Any idea how to work around this?
Cynthia

Thanks for the help. How do I get the font to re-install? It came with the computer. Is it on the original disks? Should I contact Apple? (I'm on a MAC).
Thanks for not treating me like an idiot and telling me to "use another font". That's pretty obvious and of course I tried that first, but the "other fonts" didn't show all the characters! I knew about the outline too, but needed to be able to edit the PDFs.

Air for Android - Embed a pdf in Air Mobile app

You can call native code from AS3 by writing an AIR Native Extension (ANE):

BTW: Flash already contains quite a few image processing filters and image compositioning algorithms. They may be suitable, depending on your needs.

Snow Leopard (10.6.8) Web Browser, App Store, iTunes Store image won't finish loading.

Hello,
I've recently upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard by clean installing. Once I upgraded to Snow Leopard (10.6.3) everything seemed to work perfectly except for the new keyboard that I purchased (requires upgrade to 10.6.8). So as I upgraded to 10.6.8 by "Software Update…".
Once the update was completed and the machine restarted I've noticed when I opened opened couple of common sites in Safari (such as: Flickr, YouTube, and Amazon) and some of the images won't finish loading with a "?" in the middle where the image would be and browser assumes that the site was done loading. First I thought this was a refresh problem so I hit refresh on the browser but nothing really happened. I thought this was strange so I decided to download Google Chrome and Firefox to try it out as well. Same situation as well… Then I opened the App Store and iTunes Store and the same things happened there as well. I'm assuming that all these images exists online so anything that access the web to load images will just crap out. One odd thing is that this problem don't seem to happen on any of the sites on Apple when I view it in the web browsers.
I couldn't figure out the reason so I decided to reinstall Snow Leopard (10.6.3) again by cleaning out the hard drives as before. Once it finished installing I opened up iTunes Store and Safari and the images loads fine. So went ahead (crossing my fingers) to "Software Updates…" to 10.6.8 and the the problem happened again.
I naively went ahead and tried to clean installing it again, thinking "Third time is the charm!" But same situation once I upgrade to 10.6.8. After the third time I let the browser sit there after it didn't load those images. I waited about five minutes and hit refresh and the images loaded. This happened the same with App Store and iTunes Store images as well. This is very odd because my interment connection hasn't been a changed before I upgraded to 10.6.8. Seems like browsers just cuts off the loading time of the whatever that's lagging instead on that site.
Is there a solution in the preferences for this or is this some kind of a bug that I'm having with my OS disc or network card? I don't think this has nothing to do with my modem or my interment service because it was working fine before I upgraded to 10.6.8.

I get that same problem too-you could try checking your network settings, release and renew your IP address, see if that helps. There is a tweaking menu you can get in Firefox that can help somewhat (google Firefox tweaks) but you'd have to raise the hood in FF and tinker a bit, but it does help. How much RAM do you have on your Mac Pro?, also update your Java and shockwave
sorry I can't be of more help

DVD burned from a disk image won't work on different computers???

Under the directions for how to burn a DVD from an disk image, the Apple Help document (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93006) says this:
"Note: When burning a disc from a disk image, the burned disc will have the same format as the disk image. If you need a disc that will work on different computers, burn the disc in the Finder."
Does this mean that the DVDs that I am burning from the disk image won't be able to be played on a PC? a Mac other than mine? Neither? WHAT? I am planning to sell the DVDs of a workshop I present -- to people who may be playing them on PCs. Should I not be using this method (burning from a disk image) to burn my DVDs?

Video DVDs are in the UDF format. The disk image you created is in the UDF format. When you use Disk Utility to burn the disk image to writable media, the new discs will be in UDF format and all will be well.
You are doing things correctly.
BTW, unless you have an external burner with lots of cooling, if you expect to use the burner in your Mac (which DOESN'T have lots of cooling), it's a good idea to pause between discs to allow the burner to cool down. (BTW, this comment is based on the reported results of several people in the forum. If you don't allow the cool down timer, you will start to create 'bad' discs. Also it is VERY important that you reduce the burn speed in Disk Utility to 4x or lower in order to create discs with maximum compatability with players. (You should see a way to change the speed in Disk Utility afterr you have inserted a disc.)
