KEEP GETTING PDF REJECTED

I've been trying unsuccessfully to upload a PDF book file to BookSurge, but they keep saying all of the 250+ images in my book file are low resolution and will print blurry and pixelated. Here are the stats: The original document was produced in InDesign CS2; the photos--many of which are old studio quality B&W's--were TIFF scanned at 300/600 dpi grayscale; the photos were originally placed into the InDesign CS2 document from Photoshop; The fonts and the images are embedded. The PDF was created from a PostScript File that was then distilled using Acrobat 7.0. To help create the PDF I used the Bicubic Downsampling to 305 for images over 320 with Automatic (JPEG) compression at "medium" under the settings tab. This low res problem is the only stumbling block between getting my book published. My stuff looks perfect when looking on the final PDF. My question is, what in hell do I do to clear this low res image problem up? Which are the appropriate settings? What am I doing wrong? If I can get some love on this, I'd appreciate it. Keep me from going to the liquor store...I might even leave you in my will after I go home feet first...

Hey Norm,
You can't possibly have layers in the PDF if its a PDF/X-1a compliant PDF. Although I'm not sure you were claiming you did.
What application did you create the original file in?
Are there support files for the layout file? (Images or Vector art)?
Heres a good question...
Do you have someplace you could post the file? I, or one of my compadres can attempt to take a look at it. I can't promise you anything because all of us are working tons of overtime as it is. But a quick check of the file ought to yield answers to your questions. Like, "Can this file be printed, and if not, what can I do to make it printable?"
If you have nowhere to post it, give me an email address where I can contact you offline.
Also, the Acrobat User-to-User forum is chuck full of guys who are really good with printing issues. You might want to post your questions there as well. This is the Acrobat 3D User-to-User forum and it tends to be pretty 3D specific. BTW - they will want to know how the original file was created. What types of images and vector art are in there, what was the authoring app, InDesign or Quark. Stuff like that.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    Im trying to convert a PDF into an excel document and I keep getting an error message that reads "An error has occurred while trying to access the service". WHat am I doing wrong?

    it seems my subscription had expired so I signed up again.. It was still having trouble so I repeated the sign up process again.. Then it worked perfectly.. Unfortunately, I think I just subscribed twice and need to cancel one of them. Ugh. Such a pain when I'm trying to get this project completed. I'll be canceling at least one of the subscriptions in the morning. Adobe is not my favorite company right now. None of this was intuitive. And trying to get help was an absolute waste of an hour.

    If the setting is greyed out perhaps you have restrictions enabled that would prevent someone from changing accounts. Settings>General>Restrictions>Allow Changes>Accounts.

  • I keep getting a message "cannot send mail" a copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying

    I keep getting a message "cannot send mail" a copy has been placed in your outbox. The recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying. How can I fix this error so I can send emails.

    The issue definitely sounds like your Outgoing/SMTP settings need to be changed.  Simply set them to the proper settings for your provider as was suggested above.
    I found this link for Knology:  http://support.knology.net/content/email.setup.cfm
    The SMTP settings can be edited on the iPad/iPhone by going to Settings--> Mail, Contacts, Calendars, edit the account having trouble, click the Account, then at the bottom is the SMTP server info, click on it to edit it further.
    It should allow you to edit the primary smtp server and let you enter all the good stuff as you see in the Knology link above.
    Some providers require you to register your account on their service like AT&T.

  • Why do I keep getting an error message when converting PDF to word?? help please!

    I just subscribed to the ExportPDF but is not working. I keep getting an error message saying "Conversion Failure" when trying to convert PDF file to word! I don't know what to do.

    HI tatamene,
    I'm sorry that you're having trouble converting a document.  For starters, have you verified that your account is active? (You can check by logging in to www.adobe.com and checking under My Subscriptions and Services). Aside from that, I'll need a little more info to get to the bottom of your problem.
    Are you trying to convert the file from within Reader, or directly via the ExportPDF website?
    What operating system and browser are you using?
    How large is the file that you're trying to convert? (There's a file-size limit of 100 MB.)
    Is the computer that you're using networked?
    Do other files convert without error?
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

    Why can't I open a pdf file on my desktop?  I have Adobe Reader and running OS 10.10.1  I keep getting the same message: "Adobe Reader could not open '8pdk_96_4.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."

    I tried that.

  • I can not open or download files/PDF's. I keep getting the "Adobe Acrobat_Reader win binaries" message box. How can this be repaired so I can see PDF's? Thanks!

    I do not much about computers (old school), but sure could use someone's help! I cannot read anything I try to view from a website. I keep getting a Adobe box popping up that says "Adobe Acrobat_Reader win binaries". Every time I click the "Yes" button, it does nothing. Thanks in advance!

    To make a picture, like I did above - go to ACCESSORIES > SNIPPING TOOL.  When you click on snipping tool, the screen will gray out. Click and drag your cursor from one corner of the area you want to "snip" to the other - when you release, you will have a JPEG - save it as any other picture, or even email from the snip you just made.
    THat doesn't advance the PDFs trouble solution, but it's good to know!

    When I send mail, I keep getting this message.

    How do I get rid of this problem?

    Hi there,
    If you have a closer look at message you are receiving it already states the problem. The domain 71-12-190-31.dhcp.leds.al.charter.com is blacklisted by spamhaus.org (is in an RBL).
    Your TB is (my guess) setup to send the message directly to the recipient.
    As a rule of thumb the majority of mail sent from a dynamic dns address (the kind of address you are getting from your ISP) is blacklisted as a precaution against spam abuse due to virus/trojan infected PC's.
    Nothing you can change there. Stop sending the message directly and use your ISP's account instead.

  • After downloading the latest upgrade of Adobe, I can no longer open files that are PDF's.  Why do I keep getting error 0.104?

    Since October 23rd, after downloading the recent upgrade for Adobe Reader,  I continually keep getting error code 0.104 whenever I try to open a file that is in PDF format.  No matter if I'm using Internet Explorer or Chrome.  Huge waste of time!  I have restored the Adobe to previous upgrade of September 2014, which was working fine.  I have restarted the computer several times since I restored to prior version with no luck at all.  

    This is the message i keep getting when I try and open my PDF files that are on my desktop. I run a Macbook Pro. I checked for updates on system and adobe all say unto date?
    Adobe Reader could not open 'Employment Application(1).pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
