Need to create a pdf that shows imported charts accurately

I have an annual report with a lot of charts and graphs imported from Illustrator. When I create a pdf, the lines of the charts and graphs appear to be inconsistent. The images are fine, but I am unable to show them to the client as the should look. I have tried every option for exporting and also have printed to a pdf with no luck. Is there a way to get a better preview a pdf from Indesign? I am on a MAC/OS 10.5.8/CS3.

That's a display issue and there's not a whole lot you can do about it. You can try playing around with the Acrobat/Reader display prefs but I will tell you one thing for sure...if the person viewing this is using an LCD that is not running at its native resolution it's not likely that you'll ever get it to look good.

  • How do you create a PDF that shows up on the opening of an e-mail

    I use to be abel to create a PDF that I could drag onto the desktop of an email and it would show up as part of the e-mail when opened as well as an attatchement. Is there an actual procedure for creating one or is it random?  Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't?

    There is no procedure. Whether it shows up or not is purely dependent on the receivers email application and their preferences.
    As always, I suggest if you want to do something like that, you should create an HTML email. There's a bit more control although it isn't foolproof either.

  • How to create an applet that shows a pdf as non-editable.

    Hi friends,
    Does any one know how to create an applet that shows a pdf document (should make that pdf a non-editable one) while clicking a link.Its urgent for me as I have to complete this one tomorrow itself...please help me...
    I am able to view the pdf document but that cannot be make a non-editable one.
    Can anyone gave me the code for that one....please I am not very much good in Java.

    PDF is a proprietary format and Java doesn't support it by default. Are you using a 3rd party tool to create the PDF? If so, you need to review the developer docs to see how to make the document non-editable. Frankly, I don't see why you're using an Applet to view a PDF in the first place. What exactly are you trying to do. I'm confused.

  • I need to create a PDF from InDesign that people can edit in Reader or Acrobat

    I need to create a PDF from InDesign that people can edit (for example, change a name from "John" to "Johnny") from either Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat. I have already looked at forms, but they do not keep your font colors, faces, and sizes and just make everything that is selected as a text form Black, 12pt, Times New Roman.
    Can anyone here help me?

    Vincent,
    If you use Acrobat pro, generate your .pdf file and then save it as (french version):
    ... so that anyone using Acrobat Reader (or Pro, of course) can modify the .pdf file (with limitations), add comments, ...
    If you want to try to "protect" your .pdf file, you can try with this (in the "Préférences" menu (french version)):

  • Creating a .pdf that someone can sign digitally

    Where I work we FAX out hundreds of drawings per year for customers to sign.  These are 8.5" x 11" documents usually between one and five pages.  Is there anyway to create a .pdf that that has some kind of signature line or signature button that the customer can click to indicate approval of the drawing?  This would alleviate the need for both the original FAX and for the customer's return FAX.  I know how to create the .pdf but don't know how to put in a signature option.
    We are using Adobe CS3.  We also have Adobe Acrobat 9 and LiveCycle Designer ES2.
    Thank you.

    With Acrobat 8 (Pro or 3D) or Acrobat 9 (Standard, Pro, Pro Extended) you can "Reader enable" a PDF.
    One thing this provides is that users of Adobe Reader (back to, I think, Reader 7.(something)) can use the Comments & Markup tools.
    So, you send me this PDF of a drawing. It is "Reader enabled".
    I use Adobe Reader (knowing "good tools" is "good business", I'm using Reader 9 - fully updated <g>).
    I open the PDF. I add a "Sticky Note", maybe add some text, and use the Options drop-down to go to Set Status > Review > Accepted.
    Maybe I get fancy and go into the Sticky Note Properties to change the "appearance" from the default "Comments" to one of the other icons available.
    You get the annotated PDFs back. Perhaps an individual PDF has more than one annotation.
    Open the Comments List. Looking over the Tool bar for this you will see that you can show/hide/sort and output PDF reports.
    Of course, a small learning curve is involved.
    Pay off is that the turnips go to market via a truck versus a horse drawn cart (fax).  8^)
    Be well...

  • Created a pdf file showing a graph generated with CL_GUI_CHART_ENGINE

    Hi Experts!
    Please, anyone has already created a pdf file showing a graph generated with CL_GUI_CHART_ENGINE??
    Could anyone help me with this requirement?
    Thanks in advance,
    Best regards

    Hi,
    I searched and found another solution, because with the code from the link above I got everytime a short dump, maybe I did something wrong.
    The solution works with Adobe Form
    1. I used the class cl_igs_chart_engine to create a chart with my data and customizing to get the binary data of the image.
    2. Convert the binary tab to xstring.
    3. You can use this xstring on the Adobe Form to display the image.
    Maybe the following tips are useful.
    *How to get the data of chart you can see in the class
    CL_TIME_CHART_SIMPLE (use cl_gui_chart_engine for the chart but  class cl_igs_chart_engine for saving the image)
    *How to bind the image to the importing parameter (xstring)

  • Creating a pdf that contains forms

    I am trying to create a pdf that combines three pdfs and several forms that I created in LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2. I have enabled using Reader to complete the forms so that they can be saved once completed.
    My problem is that when I try to combine file in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended, it won't let me add the forms because they are Adobe XMS forms.
    I did not intend to save the forms as XML forms, so I'm wondering how to save the forms so that they can be combined into one pdf.
    I tried the portfolio option, but feel that this format will be confusing to the people who need to use the packet.

    I actually found a workaround, although it doesn't save a lot of work...
    I opened the form I created in Designer in Acrobat, and then I printed it to a file. That generated a post-script file, which I ran through the Distiller to create a new pdf that is unaffected by the XML problem.
    Yes, I had to re-enter my fields, but at least I didn't lose all of the work - and formatting - I did in Designer.

    Yes, but it only has one generic Date column, no start date and end date. I can't use that twice in the prompt. Although I can specify it to be 'between', but I'm not sure I can pass values to both variables like that.
    Currently I have used Campaign Start Date and Campaign End Date to enter values in calender format to the variables.

  • Creating a PDF that has editable fields and replaceable images

    I've been trying to figure out how I can create a PDF that has editable texts and replaceable images. I'm working for a company in which all computers only have Adobe Reader as means to view or edit a PDF file. So far I have managed to create a file that has editable text fields with customized appearance, which is great! The next step however was to create 'fields' that can be filled by an image. Is there a way to create replaceable images with LiveCycle or any other prorgram for that matter.
    My goal is simple: Create a PDF that has editable textfields and replaceable images. All of which should be done in Adobe Reader.
    I'm using Adobe Acrobat X Pro to create this file and I'm wondering if Live Cycle can help me with this problem, or if this is even possible to begin with. Thanks in advance.

    Your goal is very simple with the LCD. You are have to use only an Image Field (important no Image) from the object library.
    Any time you can click on it and select a new picture.
    Hope this information is helpful?
    Kind regards Mandy
    PS: Oh I opened this tab and there are no answers at this time

    Which Adobe product can create a PDF that cannot be altered or printed by the recipient?

    Hi quoman,
    It sounds like you're asking how to add security to a PDF file. You'll need Acrobat Pro or Standard to do that. If you don't have Acrobat, you may try it for free for 30 days. See www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.

  • Need to create a PDF Portfolio programatically using the Adobe SDK in C# from a Windows Service.

    What classes/methods should I be using?
    We need to create a PDF portolio from a windows service written in C#.
    We need to merge several PDF documents into a single PDF portfolio from our windows service (programatically).
    I have seen documentation in the Adobe help on how to do it using the Adobe UI, but we need to do this step programatically from our windows servie.
    Thanks!

    You can't access Acrobat from a service - since we won't run in Service mode...only in standard Application mode.  In addition, we don't run on a server.
    But if you were doing this from a standard application - then you'll want to read the JavaScript documentation in the SDK as well as the documents about the .NET/JS bridge.

  • Create a PDF that mimics the flyer

    I want to create a PDF that you can "flip through." I've seen it done before, but I'm not sure how to do it. I am creating a flyer and I want to send it electronically, but I want the readers to be able to still flip through the flyer as they would if it were in print. The way I have seen it done is there are arrows under the flyer and they click the forward arrow and the screen makes the image look like it's opening and then it displays the inside...same thing when they move to the back cover.
    Anyone know how I can accomplish this?
    Thanks for any help in advance! I really appreciate it.
