MS Word crash when exporting to PDF, and font style is bold

If i try to convert a doc file to PDF from Microsoft Word using fonts like Times New Roman, everything works fine; by using a font like Myriad Pro, Minion pro, etc. if i use even a single word in BOLD style, with other plain text, during export Word crashes, faulting in module pscript5.dll.
Any information about this problem?
Thanks.

>issue with the latest version of Acrobat and not previous versions?
I certainly don't work for Adobe, so this is only a GENERAL comment, based on many years experience with many different programs from several vendors
When a program goes from 8.0 to 8.1 it is usually bug fixes but no major changes to the actual source code
When a program goes from 7.0 to 8.0 that usually indicates major changes in function AND in the source code to create the program
As an application programmer (used to be COBOL, now in a different job and use MS Access) I know that any program with more than a few hundred lines of source code WILL have problems
When you consider that Acrobat is most likely written in C/C++ and will most likely have MANY thousands of lines of source code... it is not at all surprising that it went from 8.0 to 8.1.0 to 8.1.1
It would not surprise me at all if Acrobat's routines for checking and using fonts had changes in that part of the source code... and IF that happened it MAY be that font handling is either "stricter" and that leads to "catching" a font that is "marginal" in operation... or that the error trapping routine changed and is causing a problem
I personally have no idea if a corrupt font is your problem, but it does not surprise me at all that a 7.0 to 8.0 program change COULD introduce changes in the way fonts are processed

Cs5 InDesign crashing when exporting print pdf and markup file?

We just did our upgrade yesterday from cs4 to cs5. Two things that I have discovered so far that I haven’t been able to figure out.
I need to create a pdf from a file...I go to export — print pdf — this QUITS (if I do the interactive pdf it works okay but I need a print ready one. I had to print a postscript file — then distill it in acrobat — so far, knock on wood that works but is time consuming.
I tried to export a — InDesign MarkUp file (imdl), the new interchange to go from 5 to 4 — I was thinking okay...I will just take the cs5 file back to cs4 and make the pdf there but when making the imdl file to open in cs4 I also crash.
any help would be appreciated!

I had a major problem with exporting CS5 Indesign interactive PDF doc (270pgs) it would crash reasonbly consistently, other times behave OK? After many hours reading forums, and Adobe help desk I found my own work-around which I want to share (as I couldn't believe it was so simple and worked!)
OK..so the doc has navigation buttons and hyperlinks all the way through....I Exported half the doc. Then the other half. Then I combined in Acrobat.
There it is....simple and boy am I happy now!!

Indesign CS6 8.0.1. crashes when exporting a PDF

I am having a problem with Indesign CS6 8.0.1. When exporting a PDF Indesign crashes everytime. Here is the crash report http://pastebin.com/qYu9cWwP
I am on a mac running 10.7.5
This happens with every file I try to export every time.

I don't know what it means, but the crashed thread is making the same call: 511 com.adobe.InDesign.Print 0x17bf6703 GetPlugIn + 497427 more than 500 times. Are you exporting to PDF, or printing?

Indesign crashes when exporting to pdf with .eps and .ai files placed

Hi everyone,
I have an Indesign file with 4 placed Illustrator .eps file placed. Whenever I try to export to pdf, it starts to export and then when it reaches a page with a .eps file on it, it hovers for a minute and then Indesign crashes. I decided to save these 4 .eps files as .ai files and replace them. Now when I export to pdf, it gets through the export and a pdf file is created but immediately after, Indesign crashes.
Is this a sign of corrupt .eps or .ai files or a corrupt Indesign file? All I know is that if I remove all the image files, then the ID file is fine, ie. it exports and ID doesn't crash.
Is there a way to test either .eps, .ai or Indesign files for corruption, and if they are corrupt is it possible to repair them?
Appreciate any help offered.

You haven't said which version of Indesign you are using or other specs, but I would bet that you are using CS2 on an Intel Mac. CS2 runs under Rosetta on an Intel Mac, and I have found that memory problems are often the result of crashes like the ones you have described. My advice is to stay away from EPS files and use AI or PSD, especially if the file is a bitmap or photo. This has eliminated all the crashes that used to occur on my system. As far as the crashes after making PDF files, I don't have a solution other than restarting Indesign after exporting a PDF file or two at a time. The same Rosetta memory problem seems to mess it up for me. Mine would just exit from Indesign with no warning. Hope this helps.

InDesign Crashes When Export to PDF - Only When Hyperlinks Checkbox is Enabled

I think I've read every single posting on the web for InDesign crashing on export, and have tried pretty much all of the solutions with no luck.
I am exporting a document (a table of contents document) in InDesign to PDF. With any of the export options on EXCEPT the hyperlinks option, it does fine. When I click on the hyperlinks option, it crashes.
I've recreated this document several times, e.g. exporting to IDML (which also causes it to crash), copying the text out and pasting it into a new document (still crashes)...the problem file is the one titled Intro_Electrical. I've tried replacing it with another document, but it still crashes. I've tried creating a new book, but it still crashes.
The link to the files is here:
https://www.box.net/shared/stbtj81v3j
Normally this would not be a big deal, but I have an ugly feeling that several of my foundation documents are based off of this file. If at all possible, I would like to be able to correct this issue instead of having to turn off the hyperlink option.
If you can offer any advice for correcting this, I'd really appreciate it. I've been dealing with this problem since CS4 and was hoping that it was something that would be fixed with CS5, but apparently not...or it's just me, I'm not sure

The table of contents is build ussing TOC module. It's collecting content from 7 book documents. I have almost the same file build in an other language and it's working perfectly. Never had this issue before. I can not find the difference between both documents. I tried to deleting all the chapters and ad them one by one but it's crashing the moment that hyperlinks are used no mater how many chapters from other documents are added. However if the table of contents is made only from one documnet - inside of that document hyperlinks are stable and pdf can be produced not cousing any issues.
I will try to delete page by page and check if I can discover problem maker. As this is going to be soooooooo time consuming I'm waiting for any other sollution. Anyone?

Why does InDesign CS4 crash when exporting to PDF?

I have a 72 page document and when I export to PDF, it gets to the end and crashes. I can export to pdf in 10 page chunks successfully, but with 30 or more pages it crashes. Could it be temporary file or memory problem. Appreciate any help as I am new to InDesign and need to get this document to print soon.

This may be of no help to KodiKodi, but it may be of assistance to someone else trying to export large files to PDF.
I was attempting to export a large CS4 document (800 pages, 200 MB) on a G5 iMac (2.5 GB RAM), to a 3GB single-page PDF file. The export worked in one go.
Then, for a particular reason, I placed the entire PDF back into a new InDesign document which turned into a 800-page, 400 MB file, double the original size even though it was really the same file but in a different format. I exported that single-page InDesign file to PDF using the spread format, but it wouldn't export in one pass. Wouldn't do it two passes either. I noticed as the export progressed it got slower and slower. The export started at the rate of about 1 page every two seconds, but by about the 400 page mark was down to 1 page every 10 seconds or longer, but would never come to anything.
So, I tried exporting as 100 page chunks (2-99, 100-199 ...). Took about 2 minutes for the first 100 pages, but I noticed the export rate was slowing down. The second hundred pages took significantly longer than 2 minutes. I found I could get back the export speed if I closed the file after the first hundred, and reopened it (even though it was 400 MB, it would open in a few seconds), and then export the second hundred pages; and so on all through the file.
For some reason, closing the InDesign file must reset memory allocation or something like that, with the result that exporting to PDF retains it's normal speed.

Indesign CS6 just started crashing when exporting to pdf - help?

I just got Indesign CS6 a few weeks ago and I'm using it on a new macbook pro. I had exported to pdf a few times with no problem. Today, I tried the same thing and Indesign began quitting for no apparent reason. I already tried restarting my computer. Any suggestions?

Hmmm...maybe I should try that. InDesign causes Acrobat to crash about half the time when I export it out as an Interactive PDF. The only thing is, it has always happened on all my ID files and it happens sporadically. If it crashes, I just do it once or twice again and it works. That would be the only reason I wouldn't think this will be my issue.
I'll go through the process a few times and see what happens...thanks.

Adobe in Design CS6 crashes when exporting to pdf

I am running MAC OSX version 10.8.5 and every time i am trying to export a pdf from inDesign CS6 is chrashing. And i am doing the same loop again and again with the same results.
The inDesign file is large (<8gb) and most of the items inside are embended. Thought i did this procedure several times in the past and everything was working fine.
How can i possibly solve this issue?
Any ideas why this is happening?

I am using inDesign to create a product catalogue that consists more than 1000 HQ photos that are linked as psd files. After i am embending each link to the inDesign file in order to have everything in one file and not spending time to find links that are unlinked. In that inDesign file i use 5 master pages. Each product has it's own description bellow. Collecting all texts will be a very time consuming procedure.
I used to export in pdf previously but now something happened wrong? Might be an update of inDesing?
When trying to export a single page it does it. When trying to export 50 pages it crashes. Any help please?

Mac In Design CS3: Crashing when exporting to PDF

I have been trying to get ID to export to pdf for 2 days now.. and it keeps crashing. Has someone else had this problem too? If so can you please tell me how to fix the issue... I need to get this project in and I am at a loss here. Even if someone can export to pdf for me and then I can research this more at a slower place.. you know how it is with deadlines..
Thanks for any help on this
Kris

For what it's worth, you can get a fairly decent idea of why InDesign crashed by looking at the stack trace in the crash report logfile. You can either open the most recent file in ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporer (named something like "Adobe InDesign CS4_2009-DATE-TIME_MACHINE.crash") use TextEdit or something similar, or when Adobe's crashreporter pops up, click "Crash Data" in the lower-left corner:
And then when the crash report pops up, look for the "Crashed Thread" line to tell you which thread crashed (usually Thread 0). Then scroll down to the section for that thread ("Thread 0 Crashed:") and look at the decoded stack trace (boxed in red at right):
In this case, it's not too illuminating since I forced InDesign to crash while it was idle, so it was sitting in CFRunLoopRunSpecific when it crashed. But my most recent real crash, for instance, looked like this:
Thread 0 Crashed:
0   ???                         01c080d8 _XHNDL_trapback_instruction + 0

6   com.adobe.InDesign.INXCore 34f7c513 INXStyleInfo::NormalizeStyle(...

9   com.adobe.InDesign.SaveBack 46b473ab GetPlugIn + 26907
which was in the middle of an INX export. It seems like it crashed in a call to a 3rd-party plugin (GetPlugin+185048), which was called from within the same plugin, which was called by GetChildElements(), which was called by NormalizeStyle(). So one might suspect that this problem has something to do with both the 3rd-party plugin and the styles in the document. Just an example.
Even if it's inscrutable to you, posting it on the forums will probably help, or at least give people some ideas.

InDesign CS5 crashing when exporting to PDF - large image?

Hi can anyone help?
I'm working with some rather large files in InDesign - it's a layout for a vinyl banner. It contains one image, created at 1/2 size @ 600dpi - 1500 mm x 850 mm. The file size generating is 1.25GB. I can't save in any format other than tif, psb, raw. I've gone with tif.
So, I've placed the image above into my document and need to send to the printers to do a resolution test. Unfortunately, when exporting to a high quality PDF, it hangs and InDesign crashes.
I know the image is probably the cause of the issue, but really not sure what I can do about that?
Crash report is here - http://pastebin.com/EBNxE8fS
If anyone can offer any advice on a) how I can save the image as a print acceptable format that DOESN'T create a humongous file size OR b) whether there are any settings i can cgane in InDesign to handle this better?
Thanks

Hiya
Thanks for the reply - and yes, I thought the ppi was too high as well HOWEVER thats the specs advised by the production house. I've managed to get the file to export using a ppi of 500 - so it will print at 250ppi full size - which i think is ok, anything above that and my machine just doesn't want to play.
I will try and use the zip compression and see what they results in. Unfortunately, becuase of the size and ppi, I'm only given the 3 file format options to save in as above.
I've explained the situation to my production house and am awaiting their reply. These banners, although will possibly be seen up close, won't in no way be viewed at arms length.
Thanks for your help

Pattern swatches are shifting when exported to PDF and viewed in Preview/GoodReader

I've tried for days to find an answer to this question, but haven't succeeded. Please also be aware that I'm a self-taught Adobe Creative Suite user. I'm working on a Mac with CS6.
I work for a small publisher that produces knitting books. The problem is this: our tech editor has created charts in Illustrator using the pattern swatches feature. (These are knitting charts. Each square contains a pattern swatch representing the knitted stitch.)
I am then placing these charts in their native .ai format into an Indesign file and exporting them to PDF. In Acrobat, the charts look fabulous. In the Mac Preview reader and in GoodReader, the charts do this...
... the pattern swatches shift around inside their squares. Each of those dots should be centered inside their squares. In Preview, when I resize the application frame, the pattern swatches move as I re-size the frame. Any ideas about what might be happening here?
I've tried saving the charts as PDFs and placing those into the InDesign file. Doesn't help. Exporting the charts as images (jpg or tif) works, but I have to make the resolution/file size ridiculously large to get the quality of the vector image. I'd rather place the .ai files into the .indd file if possible.

Try using File>Object>Expand on a copy of the original before making the PDF for placing.

Adobe Community: File Crashing on Output - printing/PDF/other

Indesign CS4 crashes when exporting to pdf

Everytime I try to save as/export to pdf, Indesign just crashes. Instead I have to print to the pdf printer, then rename the saved file (untitled.indd.pdf --> untitled.pdf). Does anyone know what the issue might be/how to fix it? Thanks!

Could be a lot of things. Can you export anything to PDF or is it just one document? If you can't export anything try trashing your preferences, and try exporting a new document. If it's just one document make a copy of it, then delete half the pages, try again, and so on to narrow it down to a page or object that is causing the crash.
