Jpgs converting to large white squares

I have Adobe 6.0. I only use it to create simple PDFs, and don't need a lot of bells and whistles, so I haven't had the need to update it.
Hoping I can explain the problem clearly!
To create an ebook, I have my designer send me a JPG of the cover design and I convert it to a PDF. Up to now, it has worked fine.
Recently, I tried to convert one of the JPG files but, when converted, it just showed up as a large white square. Or if alternatively I try to create a PDF from multiple files, using the same JPG/cover for the first page, the first page shows as a white square as well, but smaller than the pages that follow.
Today, my designer sent me a brand new JPG for a completely different cover. It converted with no problem.
Here's the weird thing: I tried to test this by going back to create PDFs from JPGs that I had no trouble converting in the past. but instead of a successful conversion, this time I got the same white square. These are the same files I used to create the first PDF. Why did it work the first time but not now? Why does it only convert JPGs some of the time?
Any thoughts?

Kim - most likely you need to change your Preference to Show Large Images. You do this by the following process:
1. Click Edit > Preferences
2. Check Display Large Images in the Page Display Section.
3. Click OK.

  • Live tracing a jpg gave me a white square with a few vectors

    I used the 3D Revolve effect to create a sphere. I then "expanded appearance" to try and "subtract from shape area" a portion of the sphere. It ended badly. So I copied and pasted the sphere into Photoshop, removed the portions I wanted gone and placed it into Illustrator in hopes "live trace" would save my bacon. It didn't. When I select the graphic and choose expand "live trace", it gives me a white square with a few vector points in it. What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance!

    Go to Live Trace Trace Options so you can change the setup to color then choose 4 or 5 or 6 colors and check ignore white you get this.
    You have to change the option to color or convert to grayscale and choose grayscale the default is b&w which is not what you want.

  • A large white square pops up on my desktop and will not close! How do I get it to close?

  • Mystery white square at launch

    Hi,
    I'm not a web designer and am very new to Golive and anything web-based. I've just taught myself how to edit the existing website in our company which uses Adobe flash and golive. It's all good and up and running, but there's one last thing that I can't figure out.  Here's the website:  www.formartarchitects.co.uk
    You'll notice that when you open it, just before the homepage comes up, a large white square flashes up. I realise this may have something to do with the index.html in golive - but as I didn't set the site up and have just tinkered with what was already set up by someone else - I'm unsure what to do.
    Does this look like an obvious issue that someone could explain to me how to fix? Please bear in mind that technical lingo may be lost on me...!
    Thanks so much for your help.

    You are welcome, ioyome.
    I believe it is better to leave it white because it sets the frame and focusses the attention.
    Actually, before anything appears, it says Loading, but that may be too brief to notcie, depending on the loading time. You may try to open it elsewhere with faster/slower connexions and see how it works before deciding anything.
    And if you do need to change something you should also ask in the relevant Flash forum (see the different ones under Forums).

  • How can I convert a large batch of NEFs to JPGs in one step or action?

    How can I convert a large batch of NEFs to JPGs in one step or action?  I'm very new to Lightroom and know almost nothing about it, so I need to know step-by-step.  I've seen online advise about exporting but I don't know what that means - export from where to where?  Can anyone help me?  Thanks!

    I suggest you take a little time to watch some tutorials. If you are that new to Lightroom that you don't understand what export means then it would probably be a good idea for you to get some other information as well. If you don't I think you'll find Lightroom can be very confusing. You haven't indicated what version of Lightroom you are using. The link I'm providing you is a series of getting started videos for Lightroom 5. And just about everything in this series will apply to other versions. You will note that there is one video devoted exclusively to exporting images. But I think you really need to watch the whole series.

  • Why does the cursor have a white square beside it?

    I use adobe professional to edit powerpoint slideshows that have been converted to pdfs. On certain slides some strange things happen. The cursor appears with a tiny white square to the right side of it, I cannot click on images, using the edit text and images function, and I can start a text box, but the text that I type is invisible. The application also often crashes on these slides (though I find Adobe Pro to crash ridiculously often anyway). I tried to take a screenshot but the cursor wouldn't show up.
    I would like to figure out how to make these pages editable so that I can make notes on them.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi Rebecca,
    Can you please share the file with me so that I can have a look. You can email me at [email protected]
    I tried converting a pptx file to pdf and when I try to edit I am unable to view any such square box.
    What version of PowerPoint and Acrobat are you using? Have you tried updating Acrobat to the latest patch and checked?
    Is the issue replicable on other files as well or specific to this file?

  • White square when using Falsh 7.0.14.0

    I use an old program about d-day and the last months of the second world war. There are maps, newspaper reports, photos and also videos on.
    On the DVD disc is Flash player version 7 included. On my PC is, of course, the latest version of Flash Player. What happens now?
    As soon as the program starts up I have access to all the parts. Only when I want to start a video then it will open the Flash Player but is covered by a large white surface. Only along the extreme edges you can see that there is a video below is and which also plays just under the white square. How can I get that white area get it out? Who can help me?

  • Small white square in top left corner of some Quicktime movies I make?

    I have been wondering what that Small white square is that appears in top left corner of some Quicktime movies I make? When I export to Flash and upload, or even just upload to Vimeo an H.264 file, there it is, little white square.

  • How do I remove the 4 white squares?

    I have recently uninstalled whatsapp from my Nokia E63. After this 4 white squares appeared under the battery display. How do I remove these squares?

    I don´t use whatsapp, but perhaps there are temporary files in the system?
    1. Just shut down the phone and take out the battery for a couple of minutes
    2. Some files are left in a folder of Whatsapp. Find them...
    3. Install it again and turn off the phone, restart and uninstall it again.
    Or just there is just to empty the cache of the web browser...
    ... I am just brainstorming here...

  • Move image to larger white background

    I have Elements 5 and use it to prepare photos of products for my website.  My photos need to be square with a white background.  Several of my vendors supply product photos, but many of them are not square and are cropped too closely to the product for me to crop again without cutting off crucial parts of the product.  Is there anyway for me to place the product image on top of a larger white background?

    Using Image>Resize>Canvas Size is one way and then crop the image
    so it's square.

    Did you just change the file extension? If so, that is why it
    wont work,
    it needs to be a jpg file, not just a px file with a jpg
    extension.
    Photodex needs to output a jpg, if it can't, then this file
    can not be
    used on the internet.

  • White Squares instead of Application Icons in Switch Applications

    My "Switch Applications" (Command-Tab) has started sporadically showing a white square instead of one of the icons for the applications I have open. I can still click through to them, but it is a little disconcerting.
    No particular application seems to be involved more than the others - Firefox, Finder, iTunes, and a Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client have all done this at one time or another today.
    This may be related with the other problem that arose today: some application sub-windows sometimes appear simply as white window. (I mention this here because it may be relevant, but this problem has a separate thread: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=13094719#13094719)
    Does anyone know how I can fix this? Thank you.

    Do a backup.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist.  Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Re-launch Finder by restarting the computer and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the same, return the .plist to where you got it  from, overwriting the newer one.
    Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

    My ipod touch shows some apps as a white square instead of the app picture.  The app still works but I don't
    know why it is diplaying this way.

    Where is your Calculator application located? Before you can put it into the Dock you need to remove the Question Mark. Select it with the mouse and drag it out of the until it "poofs" away. Now locate Calculator and drag its icon into the Dock.

  • How can i get rid of a big white square on my google page?

    i have a big white square with a cloured dot that circles all round on my google page on my ipad and cant get rid of it, what can i do?

    Double click the home button then swipe the google app up to close it.  If that doesn't work, press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own. If that doesn't work try deleting and reinstalling app.
