Need big help creating PDF/X-1a compliant document.

Hi all,
I have tried this on my own but cannot make it work as I am not so computer savy. I have created all the files to specifications as best I can but when I try and use the preset PDF/X-1a it says violation both artbox and trimbox for every page. Ive tried fixing this manually and by using Preflight but it doesnt work for me. Can someone please help me create a PDF/X-1a complient document? I am desperate as I am trying to do this for a friend who needs my help. Looking for a good savior/Samaratin for help. My email is [email removed by host] Any help at all would be greatly appreciated either in an answer here or an email.
Thank you in advance

I create the files in photoshop and saved as PDF with the preset PDF/X-1a_2001 but I cant or at least I dont know how to define the bounding boxes like Trim Box and etc. in photoshop. The problem I am facing is that the pages are supposed to be set as 11.5 x8.75 for printing at 11.0 and 8.5. So I made my files the 11.5 x 8.75 size but now I cant set them to be printed at the right size(if that makes any sense-sorry I am a noob). So I am not sure what to do. I thought saving it as a PDF in photoshop and then fixing it in Acrobat was what I was supposed to do? I tried manually to set the artbox to 0 and set the trimbox to where it needed to be 11.0x8.5 with different parts cut off for the odds and even pages. But still when I try to save as PDF/X-1a it gives me error messages. I have searched the web but cant figure it out. It seems so easy for people to do it but I cant figure it out and I am panicking and need help. Can anyone help me?

  • I need Fusion help creating a demo of BRM JCA Resource Adapter

    I need Fusion help creating a demo of BRM JCA Resource Adapter.
    I know BRM well but am clueless with Fusion.
    I am trying to figure out what Fusion products to download and install and how I manipulate the Fusion side to manipulate BRM.
    My BRM docs say:
    Installing the BRM JCA Resource Adapter ->
    Software requirements
    (yada yada install a bunch of BRM stuff I know how to do)
    The adapter must be deployed on a J2EE 1.4-compliant application server that has implemented the JCA 1.5 specification. The adapter runs only in a managed environment. (Does this imply some particular Fusion package?)

    Overview of the BRM JCA Resource Adapter configuration procedure
    The procedure for setting up the BRM JCA Resource Adapter includes the following tasks:
    Installing the adapter on your BRM system, if you have not already done so. See Installing the BRM JCA Resource Adapter.
    Generating the schema files for the adapter. See Generating the schema files for your system. (links to some BRM commands np)

    Connecting the adapter to the BRM software. See Connecting the adapter to BRM in Oracle AS.
    Deploying the BRM JCA Resource Adapter on an Oracle application server
    The adapter is dependent on Java Archive (JAR) files to deploy properly. The following table lists the JAR files that the adapter requires from each application in your system.
    Application
    JAR files
    J2EE application server
    classes12.jar, connector15.jar, and jta.jar
    Oracle BPEL process
    bpm-infra.jar, orabpel-thirdparty.jar, orabpel.jar, and xmlparserv2.jar
    BRM J2EE Resource Adapter
    pcm.jar and pcmext.jar
    Apache
    xercesImpl.jar
    If you are deploying the adapter in a standalone Oracle Containers for Java EE (OC4J) instance, make sure these JAR files are available to the class loader that is loading the adapter.
    If you are deploying the adapter by using Oracle SOA Suite, these JAR files are available as part of the oracle.bpel.common code source. You import these libraries as follows:
    Open the Oracle_home/j2ee/Instance/config/applications.xml configuration file for the J2EE instance.
    Add the oracle.bpel.common entry (shown in bold below) to the imported-shared-libraries section of the file:
    <imported-shared-libraries>
    <import-shared-library name="adf.oracle.domain"/>
    <import-shared-library name="oracle.bpel.common"/>
    </imported-shared-libraries>
    Save and close the file.
    Restart the application server or the J2EE instance.
    After you make the JAR files available, deploy the adapter on the Oracle application server by using either the Oracle Application Server (Oracle AS) Application Server Control (ASC) or the Oracle admintool.jar file. Copy the adapter archive file (BRM_home/apps/brm_integrations/jca_adapter/OracleBRMJCA15Adapter.rar) from the installation directory to a location that is accessible to the adapter deployment tool. You can then open and deploy the archive file on your application server.
    After successful deployment, return the applications.xml file to its original settings and add the oracle.bpel.common codesource to the BRM Adapter oc4j-ra.xml file:
    Open the Oracle_home/j2ee/Instance/config/applications.xml configuration file for the J2EE instance.
    Remove the following oracle.bpel.common entry (shown in bold below):
    <imported-shared-libraries>
    <import-shared-library name="adf.oracle.domain"/>
    <import-shared-library name="oracle.bpel.common"/>
    </imported-shared-libraries>
    Save and close the file.
    Open the JCA Resource Adapter oc4j-ra.xml file from the Oracle_home/j2ee/Instance/application-deployments/default/BRMAdapterDeploymentName directory.
    Add the oracle.bpel.common entry (shown in bold below) to the oc4j-connector-factories section of the file:
    <oc4j-connector-factories...>
    <imported-shared-libraries>
    <import-shared-library name="oracle.bpel.common"/>
    </imported-shared-libraries>
    <oc4j-connector-factories>
    Save and close the file.
    Restart the application server or the J2EE instance.
    For more information about deploying the adapter, see your application server’s documentation.
    Connecting the adapter to BRM in Oracle AS
    You connect the adapter to the BRM software by creating connection pools and connection factories. As part of the adapter deployment, the application server creates oc4j-ra.xml from the packaged ra.xml. The ra.xml file is located in the Oracle_home/j2ee/Instance/connectors/AdapterDeploymentName/AdapterDeploymentName/META-INF directory. For example, Oracle_home/j2ee/home/connectors/BRMAdapter/BRMAdapter/META-INF/ra.xml.
    Use the resource adapter home page from the Oracle AS ASC page to create connection pools and connection factories.
    Create your connection pool by following the performance and tuning guidelines in Configuring Connection Pooling in OC4J in Oracle Containers for J2EE Resource Adapter Administrator's Guide. See download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/web.1013/b28956/conncont.htm.
    Make sure you set the pool’s Maximum Connections parameter (maxConnections XML entity) equal to or greater than the Oracle BPEL process manager’s dspMaxThreads parameter. For more information, see Oracle BPEL Process Manager Performance Tuning in Oracle Application Server Performance Guide for 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0) at download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/core.1013/b28942/tuning_bpel.htm.
    Note To set up JCA Resource Adapter transaction management in BPEL, you must create a private connection pool and set its Inactive Connection Timeout property (inactivity-timeout XML entity) to 0. See About JCA Resource Adapter transaction management in BPEL for more information.
    Create as many connection factories as your system needs. For each connection factory, specify the following:
    The JNDI location for the connection factory.
    The connection pool to use.
    How to connect to BRM by using these entries:

    0 — The adapter logs in to BRM by using the specified service type and POID ID.
    The default is 1.
    UserName
    Specifies the login name the adapter uses for logging in to the BRM software.
    Note This entry is required only if LoginType is set to 1.
    Password
    Specify the password the adapter uses for logging in to the BRM software.
    Note This entry is required only if LoginType is set to 1.

  • In Need of Help Creating an Action

    Hello,
    I need to create several thousand QR codes and I am trying to work out how to automate it so that I don't have to make them one at a time.
    My idea was to download the EVEnX QR Code plugin for Photoshop and then make an action, or series of actions, to make the codes en mass. The information I need in each QR Code is a URL, with each code having a unique one that links to the products serial number.
    So, I created a file roughly the size of the QR codes I needed and used vairables to insert the URL on text layer. I was hoping to be able to create an action that would copy that text, open the plugin (which works like a filter), paste the text, create the code and save/close the image.
    However, I can't seem to get it to work. I don't know how to make an action to have it highlight the text layer or an action to paste it into the plugin.
    Also, the plugin allows you to make a variable of certain information it pulls from the file but the closest I can get to what I need is file name, however I can't make the files named for the URL because of the slashes. They allows you to use file name, file path and the information like size and date.
    Sorry for the long post but I HAVE to get this figured out as this project is for work and I am on a time limit. I don't have to use an action, any other way would be fine! I don't have much experience with scripts but if you can walk me through one that would work then I would be happy to try! PLEASE HELP!!!
    Thanks!

  • Need help creating pdf contracts: Reader vs. Acrobat

    I am needing some help regarding creating pdf contracts to send to clients. It will basically need to have info input by 2 different parties, the catering company and their client. I am on a Mac and will be originally creating the pdf contract. It will then be used by a catering company, who is using Windows. They will need to input information into this contract, such as dates, client info, prices, menus, etc. Then, they will email it to the client (probably using Windows) for their electronic signatures, ability to print for their files, etc., and then return the signed pdf to the catering company.
    I have been going through Reader and Acrobat to see which application would be better to use. In Acrobat, I exported the pdf to Word to input info, but Word changes the appearance/formatting of things. The catering personnel don't need to have to rearrange the appearance, they need something they can simply fill in info on. Is there a way around this?? I then made a new pdf and the rest of the process seemed to function okay.
    In Reader, I couldn't find a way to export to Word in order to fill in info and create a new pdf...is this correct? So it seems that I would have to create forms for both parties originally, then have the catering company fill out their portions, and then send the pdf onto the client to fill in their portions. But, if the client highlights the fields, all will be highlighted, not just the ones they need to complete. And, would they be able to alter the fields that the catering company filled out?
    Could somebody PLEASE help me out with the logistics of this process???
    Any help is greatly appreciated!!

    Boy - it's been a year and a half since you asked this question!  So not sure if you're still out there.....
    Looks like no one replied.  Did you ever figure it out?  I need to do the same thing...

  • Hi, In need of help creating a simple effect to image.

    Attached is an image which shows more or less the effect I am needing to achieve.
    http://i303.photobucket.com/albums/nn149/Jaybeedubya/FotoliaComp_635945_xs3N3VFLwPNTIOm1.j pg
    I created the image above by desaturating the colour image of the man and then adding a new purple layer and selecting 'vivid light' from the layer palette drop down box. In doing this the man became purple but the white area surrounding him stayed white...I then adjusted the layers on the first layer so that the white part became purple - the final result is what you see in the attached image.
    The problem is this - I need to create this effect for 15 or so images all with a specific purple pantone colour, I need to create these for print ready artwork. All the pictures (ie the man) I will be using, need to look the same kind of shade. The way I was creating these before was to adjust the bottom layer so its grey rather than white so that the white area becomes purple.
    Confusing huh, If you dont understand my question (and I dont blame you!) then all I need is to create a set of 15 images that look like the attached image (using a specific pantone) but I have no idea how the best way to do it is.
    How would you guys achieve that? Any help greatly appreciated.

    So its gonna be a two-color-job?
    Because with the extreme depths adding Black at least might be beneficial.
    You could make a Selection of a black&white-version-of-the-photographs luminance, inverse it and, in the Channels-Panels PopUp-menu, choose Add New Spot Channel for the Foreground color and select the Pantone color.
    Then Add New Spot Channel for the background-color and fill that solid black and hide the layers that contain the composite of the photograph.
    This should leave You with blank composite channels and the two Spot Channels visible.
    Indesign can handle either psd- or DCS2-files containing Spot Channels.
    The problem I perceive here is that depending on the print-process and the background color selected it might proof necessary to knock out the foreground elements if the company is very strict on their CI colors. Unfortunately simply inversing the foreground selection would probably not work as this might leave the mixed-color-areas greyish.
    Are the prints gonna be offset or silkscreen?

  • Need tech help creating project with PE11, Windows 7

    I still need help creating a slideshow set to music for DVD playback at my 50th high school reunion. 
    Video Media = 700 still images in .jpg or .tff format.  Pixel sizes range from 200x200 to over 3000x4000.
    I first created this project using PE's presets and original image sizes.  Images added to PE were more blurred than originals & images burned to DVD were even more blurred so I asked for advice.
    Last week several people in the forum tried to help.  I really appreciate everyone's suggestions but would still appreciate further advice. 
    Forum experts said to restart my project with project settings changed to DV 720x480...and to resize my images to 1000x750 pixels.  Then today in a PE11 chat session, I was told something different: use project settings changed to DVD 720p 30 and resize only larger images down to 1280 x 720 (leave smaller images alone). 
    So what project settings and resizing should I use for better image clarity?  How do I change project settings?  By clicking on "new" under "file" >change project settings >DVD 720p 30 or something else?

    Up-rezzing small Still Images, regardless of the program and the Scaling algorithm used, can lead to a diminished quality. As Steve says, pixels are created, where none existed. I try to stay away from up-rezzing, whenever possible, due to that diminished qualtiy.
    If I have to work with very small Images, I often use another workflow, and a different asethetic choice. When faced with the prospect of using small Images, I will create a background of some sort (many options here), and then use that small Image at its original size, "framed" within that background - no Scaling involved, but obviously, that small Image will not fill the screen. The viewer usually has fewer problems with the small Image, than one that is larger, but has started to fall apart, due to the up-rezzing.
    One "trick" that I use is to use that small Image AS the background, but alter it greatly, probably dropping its contrast and upping its brightness, and even adding a Blur to it, then do a PiP (Picture in Picture) of the Image at its original size. I might even create a "picture frame" in Photoshop, to really set that small Image apart from the background. That is but one of dozens of such possible treatments, and one is only limited by their imagination.
    Another possible treatment would be to do a "photo wall" with several of the small Images in say a 3 x 2 matrix of PiP's. Sort of like a Contact Sheet.
    Good luck,

  • Create PDF from a Word document within Acrobat

    Hi!
    I am having trouble to create a PDF from a Word document within Acrobat itself, and not by using PDF Maker in Word. When I try to create a PDF using Acrobat, it gives me the choice to choose any Office format file, but Word format doesn't appear. I can convert from an Excel document or a PowerPoint document, but not from a Word document, even if Word 2010 is installed and works perferctly. Why?
    I know I can make a PDF in Word itself by printing to the Adobe PDF printer or by using PDF Maker, but I want to resolve the issue in Acrobat that prevents me to select a Word document in the Create PDF dialog window. You can see the dialog box in the screenshot attached.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    I am using Acrobat X version 10.1.8 on Windows 7 Home Premium and I have Office 2010 installed (with Word 2010).

    Thanks for your reply. PDF Maker works in all of my Office applications. However, in Acrobat, the file formats available for me to create PDF from figure all the Office file formats except the one for Word. This is not normal. At my school, Acrobat X and Office 2007 are installed, and I can use there both PDF Maker in Word and creating PDF from Word document within Acrobat.
    So I think maybe there's a key in my Windows registry that is not set correctly? or something like that. I repaired the installation of Office 2010, and I did so for Acrobat X too, but it doesn't help. Any idea of how I can resolve that?

  • Need help creating PDF w/ comment tools available in Reader!!

    I'm trying to create a PDF that you can use the "comment" and other proofing tools in Reader. I've tried using Acrobat Pro to adjust the settings so the "comment" and other tools are available in Reader but it isn't working.
    Here's what I'm really trying to do (if anyone might have an amazing idea). My company produces a 1300 pg catalog that the entire departmentaround 20 people in totalhave to proof. In an effort to reduce how much paper we use in our proofing process I'm trying to move the department to an "electronic" proofing process as much as possible.
    I know that in Acrobat Pro you can comment and mark up a PDF and that you're able to do the same in Acrobat Reader (only the artist have Pro, the rest of the department just has Reader). I just can't seem to find a way to take my InDesign document and allow the "comment" tool to be accessible in Reader.
    Anyone know? I know there is a "Review" session thing you can set up, but that's turning into a huge pain since Adobe doesn't want to work with our Mac based network...blah blah, way over my head.
    Thanks for the help! (Sorry to be so long winded...)

    I suspect I already know the answer to this question; however I'll ask anyway in case I'm incorrect. Our Trust only supplies Acrobat 8 Standard or the standalone reader application. Is it possible to use Acrobat 8 Standard to enable a .pdf for commenting in Reader 6+?

  • Need help creating PDF in InDesign w/ comment tools available in Reader!!

    I'm trying to create a PDF that you can use the "comment" and other proofing tools in Reader. I've tried using Acrobat Pro to adjust the settings so the "comment" and other tools are available in Reader but it isn't working.
    Here's what I'm really trying to do (if anyone might have an amazing idea). My company produces a 1300 pg catalog that the entire departmentaround 20 people in totalhave to proof.

    Open the PDF in Acrobat Pro 7 or later.
    Under the
    Comments menu, select
    Enable Commenting and Analysis in Adobe Reader....
    This will spawn an
    Save As... dialog. Save to a new filename is recommended (such as
    [filename] for review.pdf), although you can save over the existing file if you choose or to another location.
    Send the resulting PDF for review.
    So long as the reviewer has access to Acrobat Reader 7 or later (or whatever version your Acrobat Pro is), there should not be any issues with them adding comments.
    I use this all the time, exchanging files for review between Dallas, TX (on OSX) and Birmingham, AL (on Windows).
    Older versions of Acrobat Reader will not work.

  • I need help creating PDF files from Outlook .msg files.

    I am trying to create a single PDF file from a group of Outlook .msg files. I need the attachments to be preserved and I am hoping that the individual .msg messages will be separated / bookmarked.
    I am trying to remove large quantities messages from my mailbox and store them elsewhere as a record of correspondence. 

    Try running Repair Disk on the external drive.
    With the drive connected go to Applications / Utilities / Disk Utility and double click DU.
    In the left column click to select the name of the external (the item indented to the right).
    Click First Aid.
    Click Repair Disk.
    Unless you get a message the drive cannot be repaired, you should run Repair Disk again and again until you see green text saying the disk was repaired.
    Quit DU.
    If you get the message that the disk cannot be repaired, you will need a more powerful repair utility.

  • Need help converting PDF to a word document!

    I paid to have the ability to convert a PDF document to a Word document.  When I click on "convert" the area turns gray, and nothing happens.  Once before, the document converted, but it did not come out the same.  For example, the charts did not convert at all.  Any help will be appreciated.

  • In need of help creating a photo to look like...

    Hey guys and gals,
    I'm trying to basically to make an image very similar to this one, only with different people and a different color.  For the life of me, I can't figure out how to create this effect.  If anyone could help me, I would be SO appreciative!
    Thanks to much!!!

    I didn't have any young people to use in an example, so I give you some of 'The Convention Committee' 
    The pictures will have started off as individual portraits, so find and select them all in Bridge, and go Tools > Photoshop > Load into Photoshop layers.
    You then need to select each person and remove the background.  There's a group of tutorials on how to do that here  under 'Selecting parts of an image'. Learn Photoshop CC | Adobe TV
    After making each selection, copy to a new layer so the background has gone.
    Then enlarge the Canvas width so you have room to spread the layers out.
    Select the move tool, make sure Auto Select is off, and set to Layers (as opposed to Group).  Hold down the Ctrl key, and drag each layer into position.  (You will probably have to adjust the layer order so that they overlap in the right order)
    Now select the uppermost layer, and make a copy merged layer. (Shift Alt Ctrl e)
    add a B&W adjustment layer.
    I actually used Topaz Adjust > Portrait smooth to smooth away some detail, but if you have CC, you can do the same thing with the camera RAW filter using negative Clarity.
    add a Curves layer and give it a pronounce S shape to increase contrast.
    add a Hue/Saturation layer.  Check Colorize, and adjust to suite.  I gave mine a bit more saturation than in your example.
    BTW In case anyone wants to set up a Facebook fan page for The Committee, they are Don (ex PSNZ President and adviser), Fred (treasurer), Iain (poster maker), Denise (catering), and Joy (excursions and travel). 

  • I need big help

    I just installed the Java2 standard edition and I am just stuck on what to do period. I have a book called Java2 and I am stuck right at the part with "Class" I don't know how to make the javac run to make a class. The only thing I've done so far is try to create a file called "Saluton.java". I have saved that file and I am stuck from there.
    Can somebody, anybody please help me.

    I'm going to assume you got the latest version of java...
    You'll need to add this line to your autoexec.bat file in c:\
    set path=c:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\bin
    or, if you already have a path set, add it on the end like so
    set path=......;c:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\bin
    Note the ; in between paths.
    Hope this does the trick,
    Radish21
    BTW, you'll need to restart for it to take effect.

    Hi essfre10,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It looks like the iPhone 5 is in a mode called Activation Lock. Please use the following article for reference and for information on how to resolve this situation. If your cousin doesn't know the password he may need to contact Apple support for help resetting it.
