JBIG2 files open only after 'rebuilding'....

I use a third party app to generate PDF files using JBIG2 compression. I notice unusual behavior in Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard that does not occur in 9 or 10 (Std or Pro).
When v8 opens these files, it performs a "Rebuilding" process before the file is opened and displayed. This, in turn, causes the file to be altered and subjects the user to selecting if they want to save the changes before closing the file. These files are generated as image-only. If these same files are created without the JBIG2 compression, this prompt is not displayed and no save before close prompt is displayed. This leads me to believe that Adobe 8 performs some type of conversion in order to "understand" the file.
Can someone help me understand what this "rebuilding" is doing and why it only happens in v8?

We have a network of nearly 40 macs, Panther Server, mostly panther clients but the newer machines are on 10.4.
All of the newer machines exhibit the problem that iSchwartz is mentioning. this happens locally with files on the desktop and also for files saved to the server. I contacted Apple regarding this but because we only have APP on our desktop machines not the server they said it must be a server issue and I would have to pay for an incedent. NICE. They said that there is no issue like this with 10.4 or 10.4 interacting with a 10.3 server (I beg to differ).
I have tried various things to correct this e.g. repairing permissions, complete reformat and clean install on a test machine, turning off IPv6 on both the server and the client (though as I said before this issue occurs on the client desktop as well, so it is not "a server issue")
Interestingly I would agree that this is some kind of refresh issue as if you navigate to the directory using the terminal and listing the contents all the files are there both locally and on a server volume.
Additionally Files that cannot be seen by the client which saved them can be seen by other clients. These two points would fairly clearly point at a refresh issue. (by the way disconnecting and reconnecting to a shared volume is not a fix, opening/closing a folder or changing the view does not force a refresh)
Any help would be much apreciated, one machine I would accept as a glitch but all of the 10.4 machines in the building looks more like an issue to me.

  • PS opening only after reboot

    So my Photoshop CC is opening ONLY after I reboot my computer. It's annoying, cause I have to turn on computer and then immidiatly reboot it to get PS to work. Before I do this, when I click on PS icon, nothing happens, it won't open, I don't get any error message.

    Here are some things to try:
    1. Be sure that Airport is at the top of the list in System Preferences > Network. And, be sure that your preferred network is at the top of the list in System Preferences > Network > Advanced.
    2. Go Finder > Your HD > Library > Preferences > SystemConfiguration.
    Move the SystemConfiguration folder to your Desktop.
    Restart.
    Try airport. Try your network. Try your browser.
    3. Try creating a new location from System Preferences > Network and then deleting the older one.
    4. Create a new admin user account and see if it works from there.
    5. Do a repair install of Sno. Just install Sno over Sno as though doing an upgrade installation. Do all the networking/internet tasks at the end of the installation if possible.

  • What makes a file open automatically after download? I'm trying to stop it. I don't know whether Firefox or Sumatra controls this.

    When I downloaded a .pdf file, it opens automatically after download. I want to put it back to where I have to click on it in the download window in order to open it.
    This happens with every .pdf file I download.

  • PDF files of Outlook open only after 10-20 seconds

    Wer kann helfen?

    3rd Gen Shuffle here, and mine does the same thing. I too have tried restoring, etc, nothing seems to improve it. Like the other poster, I am certain it is fully charged, and I know it's not damaged, as it's fresh out of the box. When I toggle on-off-on, the voiceover confirms that the battery is fully charged. I'm really bummed, as I love Apple and my family has bought at least one of everything they've made since the Apple II, and I've always found their products to be nothing short of awesome.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

  • PowerPoint Makes File Read-only After Saving

    Hello all,
    A couple of end users have encountered the above problem. They make changes to pptx files and after the file saves, the file becomes read only (says so on the program window). If they are not paying attention, then any other changes they make to the file
    need to be saved to another file, which needless to say, is very annoying.
    They have saved the file, file becomes read-only, then if they close the file and open it back up, it's fine; they can edit and save.
    It happens sporadic.  Could it be an autosave happening at the same time? Any others experiencing this?
    Any help would be appreciated!

    Hi
    Thank you for using
    Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
    From your description, I understand that you want to allow changes by more than one user at the same time in PowerPoint . If
    there is any misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.
    In Microsoft PowerPoint 2010, multiple authors can simultaneously change the same presentation stored on a server.
    The new co-authoring functionality in Microsoft Office 2010 makes it possible for multiple users to work productively on the same
    document without intruding on one another’s work or locking each other out.

  • Elder "domain" file opens only new iWeb site

    Hi folks,
    [I'm a newbie on this site, tried to find the answer in other topics, but couldn't find....]
    While buying a new hard disk, I made a simple backup of my old folders on my Ipod. Importing user/library/application support/iWeb/domain on to my (new) desktop, it's only starting up iWeb application, opening the choose...option, or a new test-site I recently made.
    How to activate the elder domain (with a fullsize website in it) ?
    [I can control-open domain, forcing to show the Html and see my text as text only]

    Hi Tom and others,
    'm not sure what you are trying to do, but opening a Domain file >>accomplishes nothing. The Domain file must be read by the iWeb app
    Shortly, the trouble is that bringing in the old "domain" file from my backup disk into the iWeb/application support - file [after deleting the newly formed "domain"-file], it doesn't affect the starting up iWeb at all. The app is always giving a new start-up: You only can choose for a new template.
    So I don't want to change anything, I only want to add my old site after having cleaned up my original hard-disk [and making a backup by hand]
    In fact there are some more files in the Library that form the "old" site. There is a iweb.plist, there are cache files including maps with cache-code. There are also specific preferences, there are even Thumbnails with a date filing in it. But you can't force iWeb to read these all, because it makes a new file after starting up, not being able to open something that was made before.
    However, there is one thing that gives me hope: the resouces of the "old" domain are showing in the media browser.......after I changed one of the new preference files with the old one.
    friendly regards and thanks for helping me so kind,

  • Pdf file opens only with Adobe Reader

    I have a pdf file that I received that I can only view with Adobe reader. Every Mac application including Preview and every other one that should handle pdf shows a page that looks like a web page and says "Please wait" and some other stuff about if you are not redirected to your page you may not be able to open this type of file. Adobe reader (latest version) can open the file just fine.
    Is there some reason why the Apple programs cannot open this file? Has Adobe done something to this file to lock out Apple software? Is there some incompatibility with the latest Adobe file version for pdfs?

    I have created the pdf files using txTextControl.ServerTextControl
    The additional space after the "w" is a result of charaster spacing, there is no whitespace in pdf file after "w"
    If i open the same pdf in some other pdf reader like Sumatra pdf reader, it gets opened without any white space after "w".
    However, there is no space after the "w" in the PDF document, its the adobe  reader issue.

    '''For Firefox 29.0 and above:'''
    #Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Troubleshooting Information''.Now, a new tab containing your troubleshooting information should open.

  • File opens only in Pages

    I create a document in Pages 08 and save it to the desktop. When I click on the desktop
    icon later, a message pops up telling me it cannot be opened. So I have to go into Pages,
    and open it using Recent Items. Obviously, this is a big problem. What am I doing
    wrong that is making the icons not open? I also have Pages 06...the problem does not
    occur there. Please help. Thank you.
    - Robert

    I think Jerrold is right in that your Mac is trying to use Pages 2/iWork '06 to open Pages 3/iWork '08 files. But there is no reason you can't have both versions on your Mac. I do & don't have a problem. I think you can overcome this problem by using Get Info to "tell" OS X which application/version to use.
    Highlight a Pages document in the Finder, highlight it & choose Get Info from the File menu. In the Get Info box, click the triangle next to "Open With." Click on this drop-down menu & choose Pages. To make sure you're choosing Pages 3, choose "Other" & navigate to the iWork '08 folder in Applications, then to the Pages application. Now click the "Change" button under the text that asks if you want to open all documents like this with Pages.

  • Url file:// opening problem after version 29.0.1 update

    We use Firefox as our default web browser, even to connect to our internal microsoft outlook web app webmail (microsoft exchange 2010 webmail).
    Since the last update, we can't use in the body of mails smb url links anymore : (file://Path to our local SMB share/).
    A new tab is opened, with the correct url, but nothing happens, the page stays blank.
    The same in safe mode, tried too redefine a user.js or pref.js file, search the web, without success.
    Any Idea ?
    Thanx for your help

    Yes, it's true: support for the user.js/prefs.js exception allowing access to file: URLs in http:/https: pages was removed in Firefox 29. Due to popular demand, it will be restored in Firefox 30. See:
    * Earlier support thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/997237 No longer able to follow local file links]
    * Documentation on the change and restoration: https://developer.mozilla.org/Firefox/Releases/29/Site_Compatibility#Security
    If you can run Firefox Beta (future Firefox 30), you can check that, or consider running the ESR version of Firefox, which may be better suited to organizational use due to its slower roll-out of new features. See: http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/organizations/

  • Can't open project after rebuilding Folders in Project Manager

    I had a corrupted project so I renamed the cpd file.  A lot of Folders in Project Manager were lost, so I recreated the folders and imported all the topics back in.  I added one last Folder back in and RH was having a problem with it (I didn't write down the error message).  It booted me out.  Subsequent attempts to reopen this Project are unfruitful.  The message I get is that a certain folder (not the same one I was adding) will be added back in and needs to be properly deleted from Project Manager.  (I had renamed that Folder, but I did it inside of Project Manager.)
    Thoughts?
