Layer problem with exporting nested Indesign Doc in indesign doc to PDF

Hi folks,
I managed to create a PDF with very strange layer behavior... even with content that shows when ALL layers are turned off...
Here's how I did it:
- I placed our two page company letterhead indesign document in another Indesign document.
- Both documents have several layers (our company use up to 8 different languages for their corporate papers)
- The document that I exported to PDF, has itself two layers, and the nested Indesign document is exclusively on masterpages in the second layer.
- The nested Document has 4 layers visible, but consists of around 27 layers.
- Turning on the layer that contains the letterhead doc, correctly shows the corporate identity on all pages that are based on the master layers. Turning the layer off hides it. So far, so good.
- I use a PDF preset which renders a PDF with following settings:
- When opening the resulting PDF, the layers of the main document are all there, as one would expect. However, toggling the layers visibility renders a weird result... The document is 4 pages, a usage contract. You can download it from our server via this link. Now if you would toggle the layer visibility of the "letterhead_def actual" layer that is supposed to hold only the corporate identity, you will find that all works correctly for the first two pages... but on the 3rd, all contents seems to have been combined onto the second layer... and on the 4th page, the contents landed on a layer that isn't even listed in the layers panel, as turning ALL the layers off, still leaves the Terms and conditions visible...
This looks like a bug to me... I'm going to try and flatten the nested indesign document first, before I export to PDF to see what that brings, but that is of course quite the hassle.
Would be interested to see if more people have run into this thing...
Kind regards,
Willy

Contrary to popular belief, I am not a complete moron However, since this problem could just as well be in Acrobat as in Indesign, I thought it best to post it in the Suite forum first.
Of course I could post in both the Indesign as well as the Acrobat forum, but then I'm sure there will be helpful readers suggesting me to put it in the other. One cannot win
There for I shall leave it here for a while. If I don't get any meaningful feedback, I'll re-post it in the other Forii...
Kind regards,
Will

    having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this.
    I'm using Lion on an MBP and Numbers is the latest version

    May you give more details about what is wrong with your dates ?
    M…oSoft products aren't allowed on my machines but I use LibreOffice which is a clone of Office.
    When I export from Numbers to Excel and open the result with LibreOffice, the dates are correctly treated.
    To be precise, dates after 01/01/1904 are correctly treated. dates before 01/01/1904 are exported as strings but, as it's flagged during the export process, it's not surprising.

  • I'm having problem with exporting video from premiere pro cc 2014

    I'm using Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 and I'm having problem with exporting video.
    When I click Export and media, the window for exporting appears and it starts exporting video.
    But after a few minutes, it looks like it has completed exporting video and says there's a bug in exporting.
    It literally says it has a problem with compiling, but I don't know what the real problem is.
    I tried many things like restarting computer and Premire Pro but it's no use.
    But it works when I use Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 for exporting video.
    If anyone knows any possibilities about why this problem happens, please let me know.

    I'm having a similar issue.  When I go to export my project, I add it to the render queue, set it up with the h.264 settings that I've used with countless past versions of the program, and then hit render.  Randomly, at some point in the process, the render just stops and the ETA just keeps climbing.  I actually had to save an XMF file of the CC 2014 project and bring it into the previous CC version of Premiere just to finish it.  Even a clean re-install of CC 2014 doesn't work.

    I reboot the non-global zone, even reboot global-zone, and after that, in sapdev zone, there is no /dev/*lofi/* files.
    What i do wrong? Maybe I reduce my sol 10 u4 sparc instalation too much.
    Can anybody help me?
    Thanks for help,
    Marek

    I experienced the same problem on my system Sol 10 08/07.
    Normally, when the zone enters the READY state during boot, it's zoneadmd will run devfsadm -z <zone>. In my understanding this is to create the necessary device files in ZONEPATH/dev.
    This worked well until recently. Now only the directories are still created.
    It seems as if devfsadm -z is broken. Somebody should issue a call to sun.
    As a workaround you can easily copy the device files into the zone. It is important not to copy the symbolic link but the target.
    # cp /dev/lofi/1 ZONEPATH/dev/lofi
    Hope this helps,

  • Problem with Exporting Data to Excel

    Hi Everyone,
    I have problem with exporting the data to a excel file. I am using a XP
    system in German which uses comma "," as the decimal point , and I also set
    "Use localized decimal point*" under the FronPanel Options to be true. But
    the exported excel file can not recognize (or just ignore) the comma for a
    whole column (flow rate), for examle "1,234" (1.234 in non-german system)
    would be 1234. But if I open its text file where the data came
    from by calling Excel directly, there will be no problem. Is this a bug of
    LabVIEW, or I forget some settings?
    Thanks a lot!
    Le
    P.S: The LabVIEW version is 8.2.1 and the Office version is Office2007.

    Hi Le,
    Sound familiar; here in The Netherlands we have the same problem.   That is why we use the English versions for XP and Office.
    I don’t quite understand how you interface to Excel. Directly with ActiveX or through a CSV file.
    Can you explain a bit more ?

  • How can I fix this problem with exporting Pages files?

    Hello,
    I'm having problems with exporting Pages files to Word or PDF (I haven't tried the other formats). Whenever I try to export the Page file, I get one message like this: "The document "XXXXXXX" could not be exported as "YYYYYYY". This problem started after the last Pages update, before that it was working fine. I restarted the computer, updated the OS, but the problem hasn't been solved.
    Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
    Thank you in advance!
    Best regards,

    Computers are made of parts made by humans and assembled by humans of materials that are not perfect.
    For example, a display cable that was accidentally pinched during assembly would pass quality control testing with flying colors and would not fail until the lid had been opened and closed several times.
    Likewise a display might not fail until powered on and off a few hundred times.

  • Problems with exporting .jpg file in Indesign CS3

    Hello! I've used Indesign to create a memory book I would like to now place in another program to have printed (blurb is the company I'm using). Now that I have created the spreads I need to export each page individually as .jpg files, so that I can place them in to this other program to have them printed. (The program does not read .pdf files...they have to be .jpg). I exported each page and noticed that about 20 out of 90 have pages that have black bars over some of the pictures. I'm not sure how to remedy this problem and have tried changing some settings but unsuccessfully so. I've also had problems with Indesign crashing when I've tried to export the entire book as a .pdf. Thanks for the help!

    I think I've seen that reported before, but don't remember if an answer was found.
    HOWEVER, InDesign's jpeg export leave a lot to be desired under any circumstances, and the best method is to export a good PDF (Use one of the presets intended for printed output) then open that in Photoshop using appropriate settings (if you have body copy sized type, I'd recommend using 600 ppi to keep it realtively crisp, but the printer will probably complain about the size of the file) then save as a high quality jpeg in whichever color profile is recommended by the printer.
    I know you said you had some trouble exporting the whole book as PDF, but maybe we can solve that if you give some more details.

  • Problem with exporting PDF from Indesign CS6

    Hi,
    I recently registered & installed CS6 on my computer (Last week!), and I seem to have problems with Indesign, which is the main reason for my buying the product.
    The problem is that whenever I try to save & export a file as PDF from Indesign I get an error message (See attached file).
    The files are saved with 0KB size, and so the Acrobat reader can't open them for preview.
    This really interrupts my work, and backs up the entire comapny schedule.
    I already tried updating, and uninstalling&re-installing the suite - but no luck.
    Any help would be appreciated, and we need it ASAP.
    Thanks in advance,

    Without proper system info and details about what PDF settings you actually used and how and where you save your files, nobody can say anything. You could simply be doing something silly like using PDF/A, but trying to enforce high-res pictures or whatever. In any case, ask in the ID forum.
