Missing file: business_circles_logo_gray.pdf

For no apparent reason a Pages file has suddenly started throwing up the following review warning:
File Missing: businesscircles_logogray.pdf
This document has always been a Pages document and it has no images in it; I haven't a clue what businesscircles_logogray.pdf is.
Any ideas how to get rid of this problem and the warning?

I have looked at it and got the same warning as you.
There is no embedded or inline object that I can see.
I selected all over and even well outside the page in case it was off page.
I then turned it into a pdf and pulled it apart and expanded it in Adobe Illustrator. There is nothing that could account for an object holding an absent graphic. That doesn't even make sense in Pages because it doesn't link except for master objects, but then there is no visible section or master objects in this document.
Obviously something is buggy in the xml.
I had a look at the xml in BBedit and other than an Adobe ICC profile and Quicklook thumbnail it is mostly all hexadecimal. There is a large pattern that may be the image but I can't tell for sure.
All you can do is trash this document and recreate it. If it has any content copy and paste it into a plain text file in TextEdit or similar before transferring it to a new document.

Looking for Scripts that Replaces Text and Master Pages (Batch Missing Files and PDFs)

I have just found the Script Library panel in FM 10. (Always used InDesign before.)
I'm up to replace a text string and two master pages in 100+ documents. Tried to google for some nice solutions to make this automatically but cannot find any scripts/macros to FM at all.
Do you have som tip where to find such scripts/macros?
To facilitate my work I also look for a batch script that automatically updates the image pathes in each framemaker file (image folder has been renamed).
And at a last FrameMaker -> PDF Batch converter.

100 is a small enough number that no time may be saved writing a script (assuming none exist for the purpose).
I'd be tempted to ...
Create a sourcing file that has the new MPs needed (and safe versions of MPs "Left" and "Right")
Create a new Book file.
Add to it all 100 of the files needing update (this is the only tedious part).
Use Find/Replace from the Book menu to fix the text string.
Select all book component files:
File > Import > Formats
Import from Document [MPsourcefilename.fm]
[Deselect All]
[*] Page Layouts
[Import]

Error opening document: missing file

I have a Pages template that has started opening up with the following error box:
The following errors occurred while trying to open this document:
Missing file: businesscircles_logosgrey.pdf
When I hit "continue", the document (template) opens up fine and appears to be missing nothing. I've searched my computer for the missing file and it doesn't exist (and I have no recollection of why I'd insert a pdf into a template anyway...)
Within Pages I've clicked in View>Show Invisibles, thinking that might reveal something. It didn't.
Any ideas? Thanks!
PS I am running Pages 2.0

Hello,
I had this problem a while ago with an old version 1.x file when open it in Pages 2. After some examination, it seems to appear with placeholder objects mainly (like the image you are writing about). But this was the only time I encountered the problem.
Argelius,
try to copy the image from the business letter template with this steps:
1) Click on the Pages app icon with holding the control key down and choose the item "Show the Package Content" of the appearing menu.
2) Navigate to the business letter template "Contents/Resources/<YourUsedLanguage>.lproj/Templates/ISO/Stationery/" (or "Traditional" instead of "ISO" if you are using Legal and no DIN letter sizes).
3) Do "Show the Package Content" on the letter icon and you will see a new window with all the content of the letter.
4) Search for the image and copy it.
5) Show your own letter document (the document should be closed in Pages), with which the error appears, and show the package content.
6) Paste the image into the package folder.
Now the error message should not appear by opening the document. Search your document if the logo image is placed in it. If yes, have a look at the menu "Format/Advanced/" if the image is marked as a placeholder image. Deactivate this and than delete the image. Save the document (perhaps as a duplication) and close it. See if the problem is gone by open the new document again.

Pdf for missing files ?????

ok , I'll have to rephrase my question.
after transferring my music using i pod as a hard disk i am trying to put my files back on my i-pod sinching from i tunes.I got an error message for 100 files with which there was a problem.
is there a way to print via pdf the names of the missing files appearing in the error window ???
that would be the best way to know what happened I guess ????
Is thee a way of printing a pdf with all the files in I tunes ???? with all the files on the I pod ????
thank you in advance for your help i am running out of ideas
ally

It may be many more than 100. iTunes just stops bothering to enumerate them at that point. Did you follow a detailed plan for moving the library or did you just drag & drop some folders and hope? iTunes Folder Watch can be used to determine what files could be added into iTunes and which files can't be located. You may not actually want to get it to start updataing the library (it's tediously slow at removals) but it might help you spot the mistake if you've simply made an error somewhere when specifying the new paths.

I updates my iPad with the latest iOS and despite backing up all the information prior, my iBooks application was deleted along with a hundred important PDFs on it. Is it possible to locate these missing files? Urgently requires assistance. Thank you!

Hi Sam,
I understand where you are about being your own IT department, it can be overwhelming ...
What drives to buy depends an awful lot on how you will use them, what your budget is, and your preferences.
In the case of your DP Powermac, for online storage used primarily for editing, I would add one or more internal drives first. Look for drives that are at least 7200rpm and have at least an 8MB cache. 10,000rpm/16MB cache is even better, but more expensive. Seagate Barracudas have always been good choices.
For backup purposes, I'd pick some good external FireWire drives; you can also use these for online editing, lots of people do. Your Mac has both FW400 and FW800 ports - either kind is fine but if you get drives that support both, you would want to connect them to the FW800 port for the added performance.
In my experience, the Lacie d2 Extreme drives have been very very good. In fact I have 3 of them daisy-chained off my iMac G5 right now and they work flawlessly with FCE. Weibetech and Granite Digital drives are further upscale in performance and price. RAID configurations would be even further upscale. Do stay away from consumer level hard drives, however ... the Western Digital MyBook series & no-name drives come to mind ...
Don't use a FireWire hub for your external drives, it's just asking for trouble.
ps. And thanks for your nice comment about me. I'm happy to help, as are other folk in the forum.

Acrobat 9 Pro converting multimedia files in PDF Portfolio

I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and it says that it can convert multimedia files in a PDF portfolio
but when I try to convert wmv files in gives me a conversion error. The user's guide clearly outlines that this program can convert multimedia files - MOV, AVI and WMV files to PDF files within a PDF Portfolio. Am I missing something? Why won't this work?

You have not indicated what version of AA9 or OS you have. The current version is 9.5.5. You can do updates from the Help menu usually. If that fails, download updates from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows and install them in order.

Where did my bullets go in Keynote? And why am I missing files?

I've been working on a Keynote presentation that will be exported as a PDF eBook. I opened it up today and I get error messages saying that I have missing files and my square "checkmark-less" bullets have disappeared. (See image below)
I'm using the Black Checkmark Bullets. The checkmark bullets are ok. Its checkmarkless cousin isn't listed in the inspector window when I try to update it manually. I'm also getting a lot of error messages.
This is the first time I've expereinced this problem. Running 10.7.3 on a MBPro (2.66 i7 w/4GB RAM), Keynote 5.1.1).
Ideas to correct this issue? Thanks in advance!

SOLVED -
Used AppCleaner to unstaill Keynote, Pages and Numbers. Reinstalled iWork from disk and ran updates. Issue resolved itself after this.

Converting Word 2007 files to PDF

Hi,
When I convert Word 2007 file to PDF via Acrobat Pro. 9, The Section Titles show on the bookmark area are as usual, but the Section number for the titles are disappear. For Example: the title set as "1.1 Test", the bookmark shows only "Test" and the "1.1" is disappeared. (the title assigned as style heading 3 and the section number is generated by multi-level list).
I have been converting Word 2003 file via Acrobat Pro. 7 and Word 2007 file Via Acrobat 8.1, they are all fine.
I tried to change settings on PDFmaker for Acorbat Pro 9 and failed. I also checked through the manual and found nothing. Can anyone tell me how to have both the section number and title show on the Bookmark section of PDF file with my present MS Word 2007 setting (the title assigned as style heading 3 and the section number is generated by multi-level list)?
Thanks,
Jeffrey

Steve, Samnol,
Thanks for your advice and sorry for the late reponse because I tried to re-install Acrobat 8 and 9 and see if anything changed.
The good news I got from this weekend is that the problem regarding the "Missing of section numbers in the Bookmark when I converted the Word 2007 to PDF" has been resolved after I update the patch published on 01 March 2009. I will keep running Rev 9 on trail basis and work out the recommendation to the company. I am glad that I can get rid of the old Office 2003 and Acrobat 7 for the time being. It has been a heck for me to run dual Office system.
Thanks again for the advise.
Jeffrey

Problem on saving Pages file in PDF format

I am using Pages on iCloud. When I add a picture and put a frame on it it looks nice but when I save this file in PDF format something happens with the picture frame. It is missing 2 borders from the frame. Is there a way to fix it?

I recommend you post in the forum for the software you are using to
convert.

Exporting CS5 file to PDF causes the document size to enlarge on PDF!

I need help... FAST! I have a 14-page 4CP calendar that bleeds on three sides. The bleed size is 3/16", per the printer's requirements. When I export the file from InDesign to PDF, the overall page size is increased by exactly 3/16"! I nearly missed this and approved the job for printing. Luckily, I turned on the rulers in the PDF file to double-check all the page elements were properly placed and wouldn't fall on the fold. That's when I discovered that objects that I had placed on a page were extending into the fold and onto the next page. I went back to my InDesign file and found that those elements were properly placed and did not extend into the fold as they were doing in the PDF file. I tried different PPDs, exporting the file with and without printer's marks... all to no avail. I finally printed the file to a Postscript (PS) file and then exported that file to PDF and got it to work. However, I would prefer to avoid that extra step. What is going on? Why is the file enlarging (coincidentally the EXACT same amount that the bleed was set for) and/or what am I doing wrong? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Are you familiar with bleeds etc? i.e. have you used them before? It sounds to me as if you're doing everything mostly right but not realising that Acrobat and Reader (please don't mention Mac Preview) show the size including the bleeds when you choose those options upon export from Indesign.
Go back and check your document setup. Page size should be excatly just that, finished page size. Bleed settings (you might have to tick more options to see them) should be also just that. Export the PDF, go to 'Marks and bleeds' tick 'Use Document bleed settings' and you're done. The document will appear bigger.
oh and use the camera button for screenshots.
You can see the actual size of the doc by going Advanced > Print Production > Crop Pages and toggling between TrimBox (the size the page will get trimmed to) and CropBox (which includes the bleeds and is what displays).

Problem involving saving over indesign file and pdf

Kind of a strange one this one....
I'm currently working on a magazine and have several InDesign files in one folder that i'm working on and a seperate folder where I have saved exported pdf versions of these files. The files are the same names in ach folder eg '1 - 40' '2 - 39' and so on
I accidentally saved over one of my InDesign files so I understand I will not be able to recover it as I wasnt using any backup utility.
However before I saved over the file I had created a pdf version of it and saved it in my pdf folder. So i'm thinking not all is lost as I can use the pdf file to send to the printers.
Now here's the strange bit - I am using PC and when I open explorer I can see the folder icon where all my pdf files are saved and can actually see the 'lost/saved over' pdf version as one of the mini thumbnails for that folder - but when I click on the folder to view the files inside it isnt there - instead it shows a thumbnail of the file i saved over it with...!?!
I'm thinking is there somekind of automatic updating PDF export setting that I may have selected or is it possible that folder icon is using a snapshot of what was inside at a certain point??
Either way I could really do with recovering this PDF - if anyone has any suggestions i'm more than happy to hear them.
Thanks
Mark

i thought this would help a little
This is the folder icon - in which all my pdf's are. The top left thumbnail is the 'missing/saved over' pdf. So you'd think it would be in there?
Below is a view of the contents of that folder - (for those of you with good eyesight) you can see that the top left thumbnail from the above picture is nowhere to be seen in this folder!!

Missing Files During Network Copy?

I have recently copied data files (mostly pdf) from my windows machine to my iMac via my network when I got my new computer.
Tonight, I noticed some files that I viewed the other day on my Mac were mysteriously gone?
Being that, I verified that my old machine still had the original files that were supposedly missing. So, to ensure that I had all my files I zipped the original folder on my old computer and copied back to the Mac to a new directory. When I unzipped on the iMac, the files in question are missing again in the new directory.
What am I doing wrong? I am concerned because I have quite a bit of data that I switched over and I'm not really sure what might be missing.
Any ideas are appreciated.

It appears that if you try to copy directly from My Documents on the Mac, certain files are not copied.
Why some files are copied and other are not I have no clue but I simply logged into my windows machine and copied directly to my Mac and that seemed to work.

Problem trying to save FM 8.0 file as PDF

I have used Robohelp version 7.1 for several years. Yesterday, I installed the Technical Communication Suite. I opened and converted all 7.1 files in a 7.1 book to 8.0 Framemaker. Now, I'm trying to save one file as PDF and am getting the following error:
"Framemaker could not find Adobe PDF printer instance, which must be installed to execute Save as PDF Command."
Previously, when I printed anything, there was an ADOBE PDF option. That option no longer exists.
I looked through the KB and found advice like "Be sure to keep the Adobe PDF creation add-on printer instance" but that doesn't tell me what to do.

Since updating to FrameMaker 8, unable to generate accurate PDF files; blocks of text are missing from PDF file. After "repairing" FrameMaker 8, PDF files generate accurately once or twice, then start omitting text once more. Any idea what is causing this?
