Importing files into ID CS5.5

I need to create an E Book from .pdf files already designed. I see that ID does not allow .pdf files to be imported. I would think there is a way either thru using Acrobat, Photoshop or Illustrator to convert the .pdfs into files that would be importable. I also did a search on this and see there are converters outside of Adobe?
I'm a newbie to ID and need to know the best way to do this task.
Any help?

File > Place is the command you are looking for but this is not the way the create an epub.
I will repeat my earlier assessment. It will look like crap.
Depending upon the layout you may have better luck converting the PDF directly to EPUB using Calibre.
Finally, what do you mean the PDFs have 2400x2395 pixel measurements? PDFs shouldn’t be measured in pixels unless they were already rasterized in Photoshop.

  • Need help importing files into Dreamweaver CS5.5

    Greetings,
    Currently I have website that is hosted on GoDaddy.com http://www.4thdist.org/home.php  . This site was created by another person that is not available to help with my problem. I am attempting to modify or edit this website using Dreamweaver CS5.5 and having difficulties loading the files into Dreamweaver.
    First, using Filezilla I downloaded all the files and folders to my PC. At this point, I am stuck and cannot figure out how to upload or open the files and really need some advice. I read the Adobe help section on "importing" and it describes a .ste file. I searched the download folder and cannot find any file (*.ste)
    I am hoping to salvage the site and not have to reinvent the wheel and start over. Any advice would be extrmely helpful........Gary

    Thanks for the quick reply.
    Your comments raised some new questions. Let me update all on where I am. First, I am able to connect to GoDaddy server via the the local and remote views in the bottom right corner of DW. I see the file folder structure on GoDaddy. I can also see the file structure on my local hardrive that I copied using filezilla. Although, using the server connection I notice that I can download the files using this connection now. Should I delete what I did via filezilla and start over using the romote server connection? One more problem. I have content for two (2) websites on the remote server. http://www.vfwstatepoolleague.org/ This is in addition to the listed in my original post. Although, it appears the other website content is in a seperate folder. I assume that I will need to separtate this content somehow. At least link to it when I begin to start to create a .ste file for each site.
    I started to read the article "Creating your first website"in your post and should be very helpful. I did run into a little road block.
    I created (2) site names and linked to the appropriate folder on my hard drive. Although, I do not have: "check_cs5" folder on my local or remote folder. What does that mean? Should I create one?

  • Error when importing file into CS5

    When I tried to import an Illustrator CS5 file into Flash CS5, I got an error from Windows saying that the program "stopped working" and it was searching for solutions to the problem. When it found no solutions, it said that it had to close the program. I've tried three times now and the same thing keeps happening. Has anyone else encountered this and, if so, do you know how to fix it? Please let me know. Thanks!
    *Pooja*

    Hi there,
    I can reproduce the crash. It's seems to be related to Importing all layers to Stage, and selecting the "Place objects at original position" option. All other combinations seem to not crash, so at least it helps isolate what's happening and provides an option for you to import your artwork and continue with your site. I will file a bug and send this to the correct folks for evaluation - I'm not too sure what the conflict is between the AI file and Flash (it's not due to not having AI installed).
    Thanks for posting it!

  • Problems importing PageMaker 6.52 file into InDesign CS5

    I have an 11-year old file that I need to import into either InDesign CS5 or FrameMaker 9 on Windows 7. The file was originally done on a Mac, so it had no extension. I have tried adding the .PM6 extension, but when that didn't work, I tried the .P65 extension. I know from the PDF properties that the file was done in PageMaker 6.52, but I don't have PageMaker, and neither does the original author at this point.
    When I try to import the file into InDesign CS5, I get this message: "The PageMaker document is damaged and cannot be recovered." (Note that I am using CS5, not CS2, so the issues I've seen posts about should not apply.)
    When I try to impor the file into FrameMaker 9, I get this message: "The filter encountered an error and could not complete the translation."
    I could try converting the PDF, but I'd like to get this file converted if that is possible.
    I am posting this in the FrameMaker forum as well to see if they may have any insights.
    Tammy

    It could well be that the error message is accurate and the file is damaged.
    If you’re on Windows you could download the PM 7 trial and try opening it with that. If that works, resave the file and then move it to InDesign.
    BTW, you keep saying import. InDesign cannot import a PM file, it can only open them.

  • How can I process a Sony A7 RAW file into Photoshop CS5.

    How can I process a Sony A7 RAW file into Photoshop CS5.  I tried the file DNG converter 8.3, but it did not work.  I was able to download it, but upon reading the memory chip from Photoshop CS5, it reads the jpg files fine, but not the RAW files.  I thought the DNG converter 8.3 was the right file, but apparently it is not.  Perhaps I need to do something in Photoshop CS5 to initiate it, or place it in a particular directory.. Please help.

    First of all, you should have used the Adobe DNG Converter 8.6, not an old, obsolete version.  Always use the very latest version.  8.3 was simply the first ACR version to support your camera model, that's all.
    Note that the DNG Converter works only on folders, not on individual raw files.  Put all your Sony raw files in a folder and run the Converter on that folder containing the raw files.
    I have absolutely no clue as to what on Earth you mean by : "upon reading the memory chip from Photoshop CS5".
    You also need to make sure that CS5 is fully updated.  You cannot rely on the highly and notoriously unreliable Adobe auto updater to tell whether you have the latest update installed or not.
    I still have no idea what platform you are on, Mac or Windows. Please read the following for next time:
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc.,
    someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster).
    A screen shot could be very helpful too.
    Please read this FAQ for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:

  • I can't import files into the new iTunes 11. Why?

    Since downloading the new iTunes 11, required for the new iOS 7, I can no longer import files into my iTunes library.
    When dragging and dropping the files, nothing happens.
    When importing them via the iTunes menu. Nothing happens.
    I've tried adding them to the iTunes folder "automatically add to iTunes library". Nothing happened.
    I've had the new iTunes for one day, and it doesn't work.
    Can somebody please help me?!

    Sorted. Sorry.
    The files did not have album name / artist name etc... etc.... Had to find them and type them manually.

  • Premeire Elements 13 - can't import files into Project Assets, Expert Mode.  Win8.1

    Hello there - I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling.  Can't seem to figure this out.  In other computers, I have imported files into the Project Assets area to "pre-edit" before adding to timeline.  I can add media directly to timeline in Quick Mode, but it's too cumbersome.  Really need ability to select segments of media in the Project Assets list.
    Any help greatly appreciated as I spent a ton of $$ on a new computer and program!!
    Thanks folks!

    Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 8.1 (assumed 64 bit).
    What is the typical outcome...
    a. Expert workspace open....Add Media/Files and Folders/and no import into Expert workspace Project Assets, but you do find the import switching to Quick workspace Filmstrip?
    b. Quick workspace open....Add Media/Files and Folders and media goes directly to Filmstrip. And, if you switch to Expert workspace, you find copy of import in Project Assets?
    c. Other

    and in the 13.0 Folder is the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file that you delete. If that does not work, then delete the whole 13.0 Folder in which the

  • "Import Files into iTunes" automator action not working

    I'm having an issue with a simple automator action, "Import Files into iTunes". It's the only thing I have in the workflow but when I drop audio files onto the application, the action encounters an error. In trying to figure out what was amiss, I read that there was a version number conflict after iTunes 10, so I followed the instructions here but they did not fix the issue. Does anyone have a suggestion on what to try or how to diagnose the issue? I'm running Yosemite (10.10.2) and iTunes 12.1.0.50. Thanks for the help!

    Yeah, I'd happy provide details if I saw them. The message itself just says, "The action “Import Files into iTunes” encountered an error." Is there a way to get more information on the error?
    Thanks!

  • Import Files into iTunes

    I've tried creating 4 or 5 different workflows and can not get the "Import Files into iTunes" action to work. This is only part of a bigger workflow that I want to create, but it's one of the most important steps that I can't seem to make work.
    There is no error in the Automator log, it shows the action completed. But nothing gets added.
    Can someone confirm that this action does indeed work in Snow Leopard 10.6.2 ?

  • Import Files into iTunes: Why not mp3?

    I created a simple workflow and saved it as a Finder plug-in. Two questions:
    1) Anyone know why iTunes allows (under +Add to Library+) the import of mp3 files, but when creating an Automator workflow using the +Import Files into iTunes+, the mp3 option is not supported. In other words, you have to use a different Automator function like +Add Songs to Playlist+. This works too, but it takes a long time because iTunes has to convert each file to AAC. The +Add to Library+ function in iTunes is wicked fast, and I don't care what format the files are in.
    2) After creating a Finder plug-in and wanting to delete it, where does it live? I can't find it. Spotlight can't find it. I just want to remove it.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply, red. It seems that +Import Audio Files+ supports mp3, but the description on the +Import Files into iTunes+ doesn't specifically include mp3. I suppose a quick test will reveal. The original reason for the question is that the Automator workflow seems to force a conversion of each mp3 file -- even when choosing the mp3 option in +Import Audio Files+ -- which obviously slows down the process.
    When from iTunes I choose Add to Library, navigate to the target folder and click OK, iTunes completes the 80-or-so files in no time.
    Thanks for the tip on where to find the plug-in. I deleted it. The Automator desktop apps seem to work better.

  • Importing files into DVD SP problems

    Just now having the following problem. When trying to import files into DVDSP, some files import correctly, while others show either the audio or video component of the file in red. checking error logs shows that there are errors on encoding either -47 or -43. Also two folders both named "multimediaimporter.oxygene" are showing up in the dock and app switcher. any clues?
    Thanks
    Ric

    You cannot bring VOBs into DVD SP. You can use other tools to do that, but your best bet probably is to demux the VOBs using [MPEG Streamlcip|http://www.squared5.com> to the m2vs and audio and just use those in DVD SP (in other words if you are not re-editing the footage this will be the easiest route) then add menus as needed

  • Bridge not importing files into After Effects

    From AE I go to File > Browse in Bridge...
    Bridge opens up and I find the file I want.  If I double click the file, an AI for instance, it opens the file within Illustrator.  I could find, double click it, and it opens in Photoshop.
    I feel as though I'm missing how to import files into After Effects by using bridge.
    I'm running CC 2014 on a Win 7 machine.

    Probably an issue with whatever created the files in the first place. WMV doesn't have Alpha, but can have multiple streams... anyway, AE is crap at dealing with such stuff, so convert it using an external tool like Handbrake or whatever...

  • How do I stop LR4 from organizing imported files into a folder by date.

    How do I stop LR4 from organizing imported files into a folder by date. Most times when I import files I have already created a folder and sub-folder structure tyat I want to use. I then right click the desired folder and choose import into this folder option. Why does LR4 insist on organizing my already selected destination into a sub-folder with a date by default?

    TimHillPhotography23 wrote:

    If you do it this way all the time consider a different approach:
    Manually copy your images from the card into your desired destination folder in the Finder/Explorer. Once complete drag&drop that entire folder into Lightroom. When the import dialog pops up select to Add the images to the catalog (not copy or move). You will end up with the exact folder structure reflected in your library.
