Importing MS Word into PDF adds extra page with document info

I am still evaluating Acrobat Pro, including Life Cycle Designer to create Forms, currently testing converting existing forms made in MS Word to PDF. There is someting that I do not know how to resolve is when I import files from MS Word, an extra page with details info about the document is copied as well. It contains info such as number of pages, author, date of creation etc....20 lines of info.
This becomes akward when inserting the document into an existing pdf...or just create a new form from the Word document....adds the extra page ..
Is there a setup somewhere that I could modify to not have the extra info? or how do I delete it? I try to select the text but cannot (within life cycle)
Thank you

If you are importing into Designer, you should ask in that forum. If in Acrobat, then you might try printing the WORD document to a PDF first and importing the PDF. However, with Acrobat you will not get the form fields that you are preserving with Designer.

Mail merge to PDF adds extra page

I am using Acrobat 9 Pro on an XP platform (sp2), doing a mail merge from a MS Word (2003) document and sending by email. The resulting PDF document attached in the email includes an extra, blank page. Anyone seen this before?
The original document is a certificate and includes a border around the full page.
Thanks!

Since you are doing the mail merge from WORD, you can more simply just open the print menu and change the printer to the Adobe PDF printer. Then check the document to be sure there is only 1 page (There will probably be 2). Fix the page issue and do your mail merge. Changing the default printer is not required unless you are doing the conversion from outside WORD - changing in the print menu is adequate.

When converting word to pdf the cover page of my documet gets page number 1.On the original the numb

When converting word to pdf the cover page of my documet gets page number 1.On the original the number pages start from the second page.How to keep the original format?

Michael's reponse is correct. However, as far as I knew, OFFICE 2007 came with printer metrics turned off, meaning it is not supposed to be sensitive to the printer selection. The setting is buried in the options list for compatibility. If it is turned off and a change in printer does affect the result, it would appear just one more of the many things in OFFICE 2007 that MS messed up. The latest one for me has been helping students with the messed up equation editor when you want to add equation numbers in a "standard" way. One of the MS employees even wrote a workaround macro for that problem.

Help! Extending PDF adds duplicate pages

I am creating a dynamic XML form.
There are 2 sections in the form where the user may need to add additional pages, which I have added buttons for using instanceManager. Everything works just swell, until I open it in Acrobat to extend the features so that users can save data in the form. After I save it in Acrobat and open it back up again in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader, it has taken the liberty to insert additional pages to one of the sections.
I have checked to make sure that the Min Count is set to 1 and there is no Initial Count set. I did try setting Initial Count to 1, but it did not solve the issue.
The extra pages can be removed using a "Remove Page" button I added to the form, but once the form is saved and re-opened, all the extra pages are still there.
When I set the Max to 1 (in Object -> Binding), it does keep the extra pages from being automatically added, but then of course the user is unable to add extra pages.
Help!

That did the trick. Thanks so much!

How do I add extra pages to template documents in the new version of pages which carry over the same formatting, borders etc?

Hi,
Does anyone know how how to add extra pages to template documents in the new version of Pages which carry over the same formatting, borders, styles etc? In iWorks09, all styles, borders etc just used to carry over to the next page. In the new Pages, this doesn't seem to happen. Unless I'm missing something.
Any help would be appreciated.

Everything is a matter of degree! (Speaking for myself).

Is it possible to import Excel pivot into PDF ?

Is it possible to import Excel pivot into PDF ?

HI,
I am moving your posting at Acrobat.com forum to Acrobat forum.

How can I add extra pages to newsletter templates.

I know you can add extra pages by adding a section. But this is just a blank page, whereas I'd like to continue the design without having to reconstruct it myself every time. Is this no longer possible?

Apple has removed the Captured Pages feature that was in previous versions of Pages (along with well over a hundred other features).
Templates no longer have the internal master pages that made adding the extra designs possible. So all you can do is a clumsy duplication of pages from the original template, which entails opening a new version if you have already altered the one you opened previously.
It makes a mockery of good UI design.
If you want real functionality use Pages '09.

Importing MS Word into Flash

I`m interpreting a large piece of MS Word text into movie shorts I mean to organize into an interactive `newspaper` style presentation that can be perused online. With `web-presentation`, I`m a true novice; so my first crucial question is: How, or can, I import text from MS Word into a Flash Film/Presentation, with all its fonts+colours intact? My rusty logic is that D-Weaver seems kinder to importing text, but is designed to make websites; I only want to make web-presentations, which I assume can inhabit websites such as MySpace. Any help, even to point out the right tree from the wrong tree I`m barking up, would be great

So, does D.Weaver copy in MS Word more clearly? I understand there`s sacrifices: Im just trying to gauge the difference between D.Weaver, which seems designed for websites, and Flash; yes Im Im dumb: but what Adobe CS4 systems could I use to import MS Word pretty much as is, ie InDesign, even? (I dont know) , or any? If there are none, then fine, I`ll find a way (legal, ie recorded film!); but surely even if you limit yourself within the CS4 camp-site, there must be a rational way to organize a web-presentation comprising the nature of a newspaper-site which contains imported MS Word text and allows for Flash films to be scattered throughout, performing various functionjs (loop, click`n`play, etc)!

Extra page with: GET /DevMgt/DiscoveryTree.xml

HP Color Laser Jet CP 2025
Prints an extra page with the following message:
"GET /DiscoveryTree.xml HTTP/1.1

Pamment, to resolve this issue you need to disable the "Printer Status Notifications" in the printer driver settings.
To do so, assuming you are using Windows 7, the first thing you need to do is go into your control panel.
Once there, select "view devices and printers" under "hardware and sound".
Right click your printer and select "properties" or "printer properties".
Select the "device settings" tab and there you should see the option to disable "printer status notifications".

Why does 'User not registered for online use' show up when I try to import a cd into itunes. None of the cd info shows up either

Why does 'User not registered for online use' show up when I try to import a cd into itunes? None of the cd info shows up either.

Well, the format I upload from the camera is "video clip" or "video for Windows"...sometimes I've converted them to avi format, too. But as I said, it never even lets me get that far...I never get to even select a clip. As soon as I tell the program to "import/clip" it freezes up before I can even go to the folder that the clips are in. It has only begun to do this recently, and I'd never had any problems like this before. Last night I tried it again, and I clicked "open composition", and it froze when I did that too.
I'm not sure how much more specific I can be about the details of the clips, since I'm positive it has nothing to do with the clips themselves...I'm running Windows XP, though...Home Edition Service Pack 2, Pentium 4 CPU 2.80GHz, with 504 MB of RAM. I have had the automatic updates turned on since I did my last reformat a couple of weeks ago. Could it have something to do with some kind of an update it may have done?

I am having problems importing some CDs into iTunes on a laptop with Windows 8. Most CDs import without problem. The ones I can't import can be imported into iTunes with Windows 7. Does anybody know why this problem is occurring?

I am having problems importing some CDs into iTunes on a laptop with Windows 8. Most CDs import without problem. The ones I can't import can be imported into iTunes with Windows 7. Does anybody know why this problem is occurring?

First-off, this seems to be a general problem with 10.4 (across all the operating systems of which I am aware). Unfortunately, I cannot provide a permanent solution but, if you need a quick fix, this will (hopefully) work for you.
For some inexplicable reason, iTunes no longer recognises standard Windows paths. For example:
Y:\Music\Buddy Holly\Buddy Holly - Rave On.mp3
The end result is that it will import a playlist with no content.
It will, however, recognise the equivalent Apple paths which look like this:
file://localhost/Y:/Buddy Holly/Buddy Holly - Rave On.mp3
It is possible to convert your existing playlists using a few basic replace commands in something like Notepad. In my case, I made some code changes in my music manager and now generate two sets of playslists (one standard and one to accommodate iTunes).
Forgive me foir stating the obvious but please remember to make sure that the disk / path containing your music is accessible when doing the import otherwise you will probably get a blank result. Note that you can do a bulk import by selecting all the (revised) playlists and dragging them onto the iTunes sidebar.
I am sorry that this is not a "clean" solution but it will work if you are in a bind. The only alternative of which I am aware is to wait for Apple to fix the problem.

Advange of using Adobe Acrobat over Microsoft word 2007 PDF add -in

Hi,
I would like to know what is the advantage of using Adobe Acrobat 9 standard or professional over Microsoft Word 2007 PDF addin. Microsoft will ship the PDF convertor with SP2 later this month, in that case what should be the use of using adobe acrobat to convert a document to PDF and not use microsoft word built in features.
This is just a doubt which arouse and thought if I could ask here, thought to control some adobe acrobat licenses being used in our environment.

I have found that some of the links and other items just to not work well with the add-in from MS. However, with OFFICE 2007, it appears that MS has put some hooks in the system to screw up Acrobat. Typical pages that are produced with Acrobat get cut into sections (a graphic will be chopped into multiple graphics and pasted together). I say this is OFFICE only from the perspective that we have tried it with OFFICE 2007 and both AA7 and AA8 and gotten the same result. When we used the same file in OFFICE 2003 with AA7, the PDF was fine. So when you complain about the PDFs created by OFFICE 2007 and Acrobat, you may be seeing something that is a result of OFFICE, not Acrobat. Generally they still look good, it is only in some detail where you will see problems.
A major advantage we found with Acrobat is that it did not have issues with messing up the links that the MS add-in had. You can try some of this yourself, but that is a summary of our conclusions. Bill

Importing MS Word into RoboHelp HTML / TOC Creation/ CHM output?

Hello,
I am a newbie to RoboHelp 8 and am trying out the Adobe Technical Communication Suite 2.5, and have a Windows 7 (64 Bit) OS.
At the moment, I have a single 40 page word document (MS Word 2010) that I would like to bring into RoboHelp 8.
With that said, I create a blank project, and then import the document. But, when I try to generate and view a help file, I am not seeing the table of contents. I have even done the AUTO TOC and verify that the links correspond to sections and sub-sections etc. - but still no TOC.
In addition, for some reason it brought in each of my figures twice, so that I have two figure 1s, two figure twos and so on.
Finally, it gave me an error message and was complaining about WidgetMax:
"Compilation failed while compiling http:\www.widgetmax.com."
I am not sure what that is about either.
Okay, one more question. Is there an easy way to break up all the sections/sub-sections into unique topics before or during inport into RoboHTML? It seems that RH 8 really needs to have multiple topics versus one long topic, containing what was formerly a MS Word document. What is the best approach to making that happen?
Overall, I am looking for a nice automated system, whereby I can take developer created documents (from protected MS Word templates) and bring them into RoboHelp HTML (version 8). Hopefully, I will not have to break apart the entire MS Word document first, before bringing it into RH 8.
Thanks for taking the time to answer the questions from a newbie.

Hi there
My own guess is that you created a project using one of the supplied templates. Specifically, the Application Help template. This template already has a CHM window defined that contains a link to the WidgetMax.com site. When a link to a web site is defined in a CHM window, the compiler will squawk about it because it cannot resolve the link to a local HTML page. So you may safely ignore the message.
As for importing the Word content, you have some decisions to make. How do you want to edit the content after you get it into RoboHelp?
After you import you will abandon Word and make any changes to the documentation only using RoboHelp HTML.
You will continue to maintain the Word document using Microsoft Word and you will want to update RoboHelp HTML to reflect the changes
Depending on the avenue you wish to take, you will have different options for splitting the Word content into individual topics. Once we know which option you wish to use we can offer more guidance.
Cheers... Rick
