Inserted images leave ghost outline in PDF

I have never had this problem but am in the middle of producing a large document with multiple inserted images. When I output as a PDF, some - but not all - of the images show a very faint gray outline - almost as if I had created a pencil thin frame in gray. I have tried inserting both JPEG and PDF files of the same images but with the result is the same. The images are predominantly charts and graphs with white back grounds so the unintended frame is a problem.
Thanks for any suggestions of solutions.

I examined the .pdf structure in Illustrator and the hairline is actually the revealed edge of a grey background behind the graph where the trimbox appears.
The structure is a little complicated. Basically the whole of the .pdf of the table which you created from Numbers has the grey background, which is then masked by the trimbox you created in Preview when you cropped it.
You need to go back to the original Numbers' tables to see what the grey background is there that could be causing the masked grey object.
Alternately, don't trim the table in Preview. Just bring the whole untrimmed graph into Pages into an image box, which you then mask to trim out the unwanted elements.

Insert Image in PDF Programatically

I am trying to work with a pdf progamatically through FoxPro using objects:
createObject(”AcroExch.App”)
createObject(”AcroExch.AvDoc”)
createObject(”AcroExch.PDDoc”)
I am able to open acrobat, add / delete pages, fill in some fields with the “AFormAut.App” object. and finally print the pdf.
I print Hundreds of books for students in our college, each student gets a book specificaly tailered for the student.
Everything goes programatically.
Now I want to insert images into the pdf, also programatilcally.
I cant find a which object to work with?
I wish there was a way to do it just as I did with the things i mentioned above.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

hi guillermo,
than put your image in the dest-->images folder and use the following coding:
public static String getImageUrl(IPortalComponentRequest request, String imageName) {
StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer(1024);
HttpServletRequest httpRequest = request.getServletRequest();
String protocoll = (httpRequest.isSecure())? "https" : "http";
buffer.append(protocoll)
    .append("://")
    .append(httpRequest.getServerName())
    .append(httpRequest.getServerPort())
    .append(request.getWebResourcePath())
    .append("/images/")
    .append(imageName);
return buffer.toString();

Iphoto5, all thumbnail images are gone, only ghost outline remains, tried rebuilding, no results. Does anyone have a solution?

Can anyone tell me how to get my iphotos back? Only a ghost outline remains in the iphoto library and all the albums, 19,500 images dissapeared.
We tried rebuilding, but no success. Thanks!

Thank you very much - this is the solving of my problem. For any reason all my content was unchecked. So iTunes deleted music and movies on the ATV and did no synchronizing. Now it is working fine.
Kind regards. Friedrich Guenter.

Insert image into a .pdf using InDesign

Can I insert image into a .pdf using InDesign....

You can place a PDF as an image in InDesign, then add more content and export a new PDF.
There are also commercial plugins available that will allow you to open a PDF as editable objects in InDesign.

Convert inserted images from MSWord to PDF?

I have Acrobat 9 installed on two computers. My desktop Acrobat will convert MSWord text and inserted images into PDF files. My laptop Acrobat will convert identical MSWord text but not images into PDF - text appears as if no image was present (no wrap). I have checked Preferences and JPG appears OK. Same result whether using Acrobat's Create PDF from File, or MSWord's Acrobat tab. What should I do to fix Acrobat 9 on my laptop? Both computers on Windows 7 64-bit.

Thanks to both answers above - it's a MSWord issue, not Acrobat. No inserts (images, text box, charts, etc) will print to any destination (printer or PDF).
I have initiated correspondence with the MS forum, but if either of you know how to "configure Word' to print images" your advice would be welcome. I have searched Word options and find no button to enable/disable printing of inserted images.
Best regards,
Carlo

Insert Link and Insert Image broken in Chrome

The Insert Link and Insert Image buttons have been broken in my Chrome for at least the last couple of days (latest version, 32.0.1700.72 m, Windows 7 64).
When you click one of the buttons, the overlay window appears with a title, but it is otherwise black with no contents. (See screenshot below.)
The buttons work fine in Firefox. What hasn't helped: deleting cookies, clearing the browser cache, waiting for several minutes for their content to appear.

Whtat are we supposed to Claudio? All descend on Adobe with clubs and try to beat some sense into someone!
The fact is the customer is no longer the prime concern. Most companies don't give a Rats behind (toned down to prevent censors action) about the customers. It's the almighty dollar. Screw as many customers as they can while they can and line their pockets with all the green backs as they can while they can. Then if the cusomers leave so be they take their money and run.
Customer use to have power, they would speak loud and frequently and get things fixed. And what with people from other countries now owning US companies, That were brought up with different moral compasses. They have no concept of this thing of loyalty to customers. The customer can jump off a cliff and they will simply cheer them on while the do so.
We have lost, the fight can't be won. It no use. So Pat and others are right.
I've been trying for 15 years for adobe to fix the issue of having multiple Pdfs created from Office documents because the claim they can't figure out how MS does Page and section breaks. And the issue of Weblinks not being active when converted to PDF's Both on Mac's yet on PC's there is no issue. I quite this year after I received a down right nasty not from Adobe say they didn't have any interest in fixing the bugs and were not about to try. What it amounted was go take a flying leap.
They have the ability. They have beenblaming Its apple because they don't do such and such , or Microsoft because they don't do so and such. On the Links issue Saying MS doesn't provided the necessary hooks in the mac version of Office. They do you can take a Word document created on a Mac and open a PC and create a PDF and the links will be active. You can Open a Word Document in Apple's pages and all links created in Office document will be there. The argument has been proven several different ways to be a an outright bald-faced lie. The defect is squarely with the Mac version of Acrobat.
So Pat and others are right. Just throw in that towel. Adobe support of its customers is now 10 times worse than intuit's which is supposed have the lowest reputation of any software compny that ever existed.

Is it possible to insert images in Adobe 9 Standard?

It appears that it is not possible to insert images in Adobe 9 Standard. There is no TouchUp Object Tool in the Advanced Editing Toolbar in the standard version. Only a TouchUp Text Tool. Is this not a basic function being able to add or change an image in a document? The tutorials all show this as a capability but they are also demonstrating in the Pro version of Acrobat. Is there a work around or have I been suckered into buying a product that doesn't quite meet my needs?

The Touch-Up Object tool is not available in Standard.
Adobe Acrobat is not meant to be a word processing program; it is meant to be a cross-platform method for document exchange. Changes are best made in the source program. While the answer to your question would not have been obvious from this list, it is a good reference for the difference between Acrobat products: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/matrix.html .
If for some reason it is not possible to edit the source file and create the pdf again, you can insert your image as a form button and then flatten it. A lot more work, but post if you want help with this.
--For other folks reading this thread, Adobe offers trials of its programs. Consider testing before buying.

Converting image links from Word to PDF

If I insert a picture into a Word file (Insert/Picture From File), select the picture and Insert/Hyperlink and then Convert to Adobe PDF, the hyperlink is still active in the pdf file as expected (Add Links is checked in the conversion settings).
However, if I do the same but apply any layout options to the picture before attaching the hyperlink (e.g. Format Picture/Layout/Square text wrapping), Convert to PDF does not convert the link into the pdf file and the image appears as if no link had ever been set.
Does anybody know of a solution to this problem? Or is Acrobat 9 any better? I am curently using Word 2000 and Acrobat 6 running on XP

Thanks for the reply.
I have already inserted the links within the pdf, so I do have a working document. It is only a draft, though, and any subsequent editing requires going back to the original Word document, editing and converting again to pdf and then re-establishing the links - with over 30 images (linked to pre-exixting pdf documents) this last step is both tedious and error-prone! Thanks for the warning re Acrobat 9 and Word 2000. I had been thinking of upgrading ...

Inserting images in Crystal Reports

Hello,
I have two questions regarding the use of pictures in a Crystal report :
1. Is there a maximum dpi resolution limit for pictures to be inserted in a Crystal Reports.
2. Is there a way to control the PDF output picture quality ? When exporting to PDF, the quality of the picture is reduced.
Thank you
Anthony

I have the following questions about inserting images into Crystal Reports:
1. Can the images be positioned horizontally?
2. When there is more that one image attached to a database record, can the number of images be limited in the report?
(For example, limit the number of images for each record to two.)
3. If there is more than one page to a record, how can the image for the record be suppressed on all pages subsequent to the first page of the report?
4. If there is no image attached to the database record, how the space reserved for the image closed up?
Thank you.

Correct workflow when inserting images into text, InDesign CS4

Hi,
I am new to InDesign and I have a problem regarding a really basic thing and I would be very grateful for help.
I am writing an article which is about 10 pages long. It consists mostly of text. I have finished writing and now I want to add some illustrations with descriptions. I've already figured out it's best to insert images into the text frame so they behave as "anchored objects" and they move together with text when I add or delete something on previous pages. Now I would like to place TWO OR MORE images, one next to each other, in a line. This is a bit tricky but I created an object style with Position: Custom in "Anchored object options" and it works more or less fine. This works great but now it would be hard to add descriptions to these images that would still be anchored.
So I created something different. I made an empty rectangle frame, a small text frame under it and grouped them. Then I placed it in my master text frame and basically did the same thing as for previously described images. Now I place the newly loaded image in the empty rectangular frame and add text in the empty text frame. BUT now I have problems with frame size for different-size images.
What if I have a REALLY LONG article and want to add LOTS of images with decriptions that would be anchored in the text so I can edit previous pages? I can do this my way, but it's extremely uncomfortable and takes ages. Is there any comfortable, non-destructive workflow for doing such things?
Sorry for my English.

Hi,
I would recommend following steps:
Place one or more images
Don't anchor them yet.
Arange them (the images) relatively to each other, add a text frame and arrange them correct relatively to the images.
Group images and text
Copy (or cut) them into the clippboard
Set the curser into the text where it should flow
Paste it
Adjust the anchored object (the group)
You need to group several objects to anchor them together as one anchor.
Further recommendation:
For the images I would specify an object style for fitting, stroke, corner optione.
For text frames I would specify an object style for text object options, like text offset, and used paragraph style, no boarder, etc.
For the group I would spcify an object style which leaves above mentioned settings undefined (option field is grea or has a dash). But the anchored position of the whole group and text wrapping should be specified.

Images In Blank Fields of PDF Form

I need to allow for images to be inserted into blank fields of my pdf form but can't find the way to do this. Thank-you for your assistance.

anyone??

I can insert images in gmail. However, I cannot insert a screen capture on one computer when I can on another. So I think its the way I have Firefox setup...but I don't know how to change it.

In gmail I enabled insert images. I can now copy/paste an image....but not a screen capture. I'm using the same process to capture the screen shot and paste as I do in Word. It works on one computer...but not another.

Move the cursor to the very top of the screen, maybe push up a bit. The main menubar should then appear. All the way to the right should be a bright blue icon - click it, and the Safari window should revert to 'normal' size.
Pressing Command-Control-F should accomplish the same thing.
Once it is back to normal size, click and hold on the top portion of the Safari window and drag to left or right to place it where you want it to be. Once you leave it there, the next time you open Safari it should open its window in normal size at that place.
If you need to re-size the window a bit, you can click-and-hold on the bottom-right corner of the window and drag to resize it.

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
Sara Dreger

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