Include EPS image in PDF

Hi.
I Want to include EPS image in PDF document but i don't know how to!
Please help me, i don't found in the PDF referece how to!
Thanks bye!

> The PDF reference don't talk about that.
It doesn't talk about it, because you cannot do it directly. The same
with any other vector format, like WMF.
Think of the problem as two stage:
1. Convert your vector format to PDF.
2. Merge the PDF content into your PDF.
The simplest way to merge content is to take a page from your new PDF,
turn the page into a form XObject, and add the form XObject to the old
page. Then add q/cm/Do/Q to the page stream of the main page.
For step 1, convert PostScript to PDF, you may want to make use of
existing tools. Otherwise, this is a fascinating project but not less
than 4 solid years of work.

Preview not saving when converting multiple .eps files to .pdf

Hi,
I have a macbook pro with snow leopard. I open a group of .eps image files using preview into the same window. I then shut the window with "cmd w". It says do you want to save all. I click save all. But then no saves are made.
If i open the group of .eps files using preview into separate windows and click "cmd w", then click save, it tries to save as untitled.pdf as opposed to "filename".pdf.
I previously used preview on a powerbook to convert .eps images to .pdf. In that version of preview the files would open in their own window. When i hit "cmd w" and save it would use save file as "filename".pdf.
Why does the newer version of preview not at least do this? Preferably the new version of preview would save all the .eps files as a batch as stated in my first sentence.
Does anyone have any ideas what i can do?

Possibly similar problem:
When I open a JPEG in Preview, adjust the quality, and try to Save As, it simply saves as the original, not the new reduced-quality file. This is true even if I save it in a new location.
- open a 200kb JPEG
- try to Save As with quality reduced to only 50kb
- it saves as the original 200kb file

Generate PDF not including an image

The XDP version of a form displays correctly but when the generate PDF step in a process is done one of the images is not included. In designer the display as PFD tab works fine. I've recreated the PDF from the XPD, I've removed the image fragment, and even included the images not as a fragement but nothing.Any ideas?

I worked around this problem by finding a form that the image was working on adn copied it to the one that was not working. NOt a real fix but it is workign now.

Extracting images from pdf

I am trying to extract images from pdfs using pdfimages, but i am unable to retrieve all the images. By opening the pdfs using Acrobat Reader 9.0, I am able to select, those images retrieved by pdfimages, using the select tool but for other figures/images we need to try other options like print screen and then cut the relevant image. I was wondering why or when does the Acrobat treats the figures/images differently.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the reply. My question was not regarding any non-Adobe product like pdfimages. It was in general the way Acrobat handles the images while creating pdfs.
I wanted to know why can we select some of the images from the pdf using select tool and can not select others for which we need to print screen and cut. Is there anything in the eps files of included image that causes such effect?
Thanks.

Converting Multiple .EPS files into .PDF

Dear Forum: We have tried converting multiple .eps files into PDF using article 325977. This article in Adobe help is really designed to convert .ai files into either .eps or.pdf, our situation is to convert multiple .eps files into PDF. Everytime we run the macro, it simply takes the eps file and saves it as another eps file and does not convert. We have a "Save As" step that we have in the macro that is set to "Save As" PDF, but it still does not work. What are we doing wrong?

Can I place an clipped eps image into a PSD file?

WINDOWS
CS2 Photoshop
I just started using CS2 - Can I place an eps image (saved with a clip path created in PSD) into a PSD file? I used to be able to do that in PSD 7.
When I place the eps file into PSD, I don't get the clip I get the entire image.
I made sure that I saved the file with the clip path.
Any thoughts? Thanks for the help.

Not that I'm aware of. The whole vector stuff has been changed for CS2, including completely revised file format loaders and later on the addition of smart objects of course, which of course is what you would do in CS3...

Error while converting Image -to- PDF and then to PDF/A

Hi,
I'm trying to convert a Image format(JPEG,bmp,tiff) to PDF and then to PDF/A. I could able to convert Image to PDF successfully.
I'm getting the below error while converting the PDF(that was generated) to PDF/A.
Caused by: com.adobe.livecycle.output.exception.OutputException: Input Document is a already flat PDF Document
at com.adobe.printSubmitter.PrintServer.transformPDF(PrintServer.java:307)

Error OCCURRED: ALC-DSC-000-000: com.adobe.idp.dsc.DSCException: Internal error.
Please give me the solution to convert PDF to PDF/A?

I've just read a footnote in the API documentation which indicates that the transformPDF function cannot be used for this purpose:
"GS_Enterprise said on Nov 24, 2007 at 12:03 PM :
Please note that the parameter "inPdfDoc" for transformPDF assumes that the stream content is an XFA-based PDF, and that it's not an XFA-based PDF with a PDF background (also known as "XFA foreground"). In other words, this function does not convert any input PDF to PDF/A, but only those PDFs generated from an XFA template which does not include any static PDF content as a background."

How to handle very wide EPS images?

Hello,
I am working on a project where we need to be able to open very wide EPS images in photoshop, but seems that the program has some limit. The image contains a printed music stave
Please, see the attached eps file: I am able to open it with Preview (MacOS) despite it is truncated in some way, but I am completely unable to open it with Photoshop. Is there any other possible program to try if Photoshop fails?
Any thoughts are very welcome.
Thank you in advance!
Best,
Fabrizio

Thank you guys and sorry for the automresponder, I really don't know how to avoid that!
Anyway, as you can see all the files are truncaed. Any solution? It's interesting how the EPS file actually includes hte complete file but no program seems to be capable to display it entirely.
Thank you again.
Best,

Using Dynamic Images in PDF Reports

There are a number of threads in the forum where we talked about dynamically including images in PDF reports before. In order to illustrate one technique you can use for doing this, I put together a sample application that illustrates how to dynamically include images that are stored in BLOB columns. I installed the application on apex.oracle.com and made it available for download and local install. You can find the link and login information for this application as well as the download link here:
http://marcsewtz.blogspot.com/2008/06/one-question-about-pdf-printing-feature.html

Based on a discussion we had today in another thread, I think it makes sense to add to this thread that the XSL-FO snipped used to get BI Publisher to render images is used when referencing images in a report column, e.g. you included them in your RTF layout using the BI Publisher Desktop Insert->Table option. In this case, the column is referenced with “value-of select”:
<fo:instream-foreign-object content-type="image/jpg">
<xsl:value-of select="LOGO"/>
</fo:instream-foreign-object>
On the other hand, if you want to dynamically include a company logo, or other data that’s not necessarily repeating, e.g. there’s only one value, then you would use the BI Publisher Desktop Insert->Field option . And you would reference your field as follows:
<fo:instream-foreign-object content-type="image/jpg">
<?LOGO?>
</fo:instream-foreign-object>
So in this case LOGO refers to either a single-value field, or a single-row report column value.

Marc

Suddenly placed EPS images in document won't print

Recently I had to do a clean reinstall of the Mac OS to clear up some problems. I backed up all my files and applications before doing so, so I could move AppleWorks back onto my Mac from the backup.
Now I am trying to print out an existing document from AppleWorks that has two placed EPS images in it. The only thing that prints is some text I have typed directly into the document. The document prints blank where the EPS images are supposed to be.
To narrow down whether it was a problem with my printer or not, I chose the print command and then chose "save as PDF." The resulting PDF file is also blank were the EPS images are supposed to be, seemingly pointing to a problem with AppleWorks. I tried deleting and then reinserting the EPS images but this did not solve the problem.
Thoughts on how I can correct this are appreciated.

Whe you move AppleWorks from one machine to anothe (or back onto the same machine) you need to move the entire AppleWorks 6 folder and all of its contents.
After doing so, you should delete the AppleWorks preferences files. You will need to do this for each user account on the machine.
Go to username > Library > Preferences
Locate and delete the file com.apple.appleworks.plist
Still in the Preferences folder, locate and open the folder AppleWorks.
From that folder, delete the following files:
AppleWorks 6 Assistant Prefs
AppleWorks 6 Assistants Cache
AppleWorks 6 Preferences
AppleWorks 6 Translators Cache
If you have made changes to the Button Bar, and have experienced NO problems associated with the Button Bar, it is likely safe to leave the file AppleWorks 6 Button Bars where it is. Otherwise delete it as well.
AppleWorks will create new copies of these files as they are needed.
Then use Disk Utility to Repair Permissions on your startup drive. You'll find Disk Utility in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder.

Barry

InDesign with eps image

Hi Experts,
We have a problem with EPS image which duplicates the pages while exporting in to PostScript file.
For example, we have placed the particular EPS image in page 2 and if we export the document as PS the same page has duplicated (i.e. 1,2,2,3....) in PostScript/PDF file.
We never had this problem if we export directly into PDF format.
Is there any idea why InDesign creates duplicate page while exporting in to PS?
We are using InDesign CS4 (Windows).

Stop using EPS and stop printing to postscript.
Both are archaic. Use native AI, PSD or PDF files and export to PDF.

FreeHand Eps image looks/prints bad

Using - Macromedia FreeHand ver 11.0.2, G5, Mac OS 10.4.4,
printing to HP Designjet 130 nr, new to FH ver 11. Was using G4 OS9
- FH 10.
When I import a normal 300 dpi cmyk eps image, created in
photoshop, it looks low res - poor quality and prints the same.
Didn't have this problem with old OS9, FreeHand 10 - figured it
might be a setting i am overlooking.

FreeHand use screen image of eps file (often rgb) if printed
to non-postscript printer. It will not solve the problem but check
color managemet settings anyway.
Eps is 'encapsulated postscript' which means it is a package
of instant ps-printer food indigestible for non-ps printers. A few
programs like InDesign can render new screen image from eps file.
A few workarounds.
1. Create a pdf, prefeably with Acrobat Distiller, and print
from Acrobat.
2. Use tiff file instead of eps.

Placed eps images do not print

Our company prints large format graphics, an we like to use PS eps files as the file size is much reduced. However, the images fequently will not print until the file is closed and re-opened again, no matter what we are printing to, or even if a PDF is saved from the file, vector data is output, but not the eps images. This is putting a serious strain on our Graphics dept. as the files must now be revisited, and steps repeated. Any ideas?

Darth,
Am I understanding correctly that you are linking to Photoshop .eps files in Illustrator, and when printing or making pdfs the images dispear without any warning. If you go back in later and print the files without doing and changes, the images print.
Try:
linking to images directly on the hard drive, so you know if this is a server issue.
What are you .eps settings, are you using Encoding with compression. We used that in the 90s, but .eps with jpeg compresion and cmyk caused problems liek you described adn errored out RIPs so stopped. You may want to look into the .pdf file format instead. the .psd format has non lossy compresison which works nice, btiu since you are doing large scale you are probably ok with a small level of lossy compression whci gives you a big file size savings. If you are able to drag and drop files to print them large format, you may also save time by saving copies of .ai files to .pdf and doing that.
