  • Error converting Pagemaker file to PDF

    Hi there,
    I've been trying endlessly to convert an Adobe PageMaker 7.0  file to PDF. I've followed the process of "click on File, and then Export to PDF"; however, during the conversion process, an error message always pops up:
    "When you create a PDF file, you have to send the host fonts. Please go to the Acrobat distiller printer properties, 'Adobe PDF settings page' and turn off the option "Don't send fonts to Distiller."
    I've searched tirelessly where this option can be found and unchecked, but it seems elusive.
    Can you help with this please?
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    Thanks for posting. Unfortunately, at this time Acrobat.com doesn't support the conversion of Pagemaker files to PDF. For a list of supported formats, please see our help page on converting to PDF:

    What you're trying to do is possible with the desktop version of Acrobat; if this is an urgent need and you don't currently have a copy of Acrobat, I would try downloading a free 30-day trial version here:

    I hope this is helpful!

    It stinks that they stop supporting it.
    The last version of PM was July 2001, all development stopped in 2004 and all support ceased in August 2010.
    After InDesign (Pagemaker 8?) came on stream in around 2000, there were several years of heavily discounted upgrades for PM users.
    So it's not as if it's just happened.

  • How can I convert a PageMaker file to a .pdf?

    I have PageMaker 6.5 and pdfPro and can't seem to get either (or both) to convert a PageMaker file to a .pdf.  Help?

    Sorry, but I don't know what pdfpro is. ¿Could you please indicate your OS, including version?

  • How to send a Pagemaker file to people who don't have this software???

    Since Pagemaker has been mentioned in regard to my last question about finding a new ink jet printer, I thought maybe someone could tell me how I can send a Pagemaker file to people to don't have a Mac and/or who don't have Pagemaker. I can't seem to convert anything to a PDF file by going to "save as". There are times that I can simply drag a Pagemaker file onto an old version of Microsoft but sometimes the type changes drastically and sometimes there is a large space between letters, especially on bold titles. Many of the files I need to send contain some simple graphics for magazine ads.
    I realize you probably can't offer a lesson but maybe there is a simple answer.
    Thanks a bunch, in advance.

    You need to select PDFWriter (or PDF something) in the Chooser as your default printer. I have something called PDFWriter in my Extensions folder and PDFPlugin in the Printer Descriptions folder. I'm not sure where these came from, and i'm not sure what Print2PDF is, but you're actually printing your Pagemaker file, not saving it, when you create the PDF. As for page setup, the formatting isn't always quite right with my PDFWriter either, but that's mainly when i print webpages. Haven't actually tried PDFWriter with Pagemaker.

  • Combining two seperate pagemaker files into one pagemaker file.

    We are having done two seperate pagemaking files in two different systems. We are in need to combine/join these two pagemaker publications into one pagemaker publication. How to do this?

    There's several options.
    1. If the two publications are on different PCs, then create a PDF of each and combine them in Acrobat.
    2.Use the Book utility to combine the files when you print.  They need to be on the same PC.
    3. If the two publications are on the same PC (with all the necessary fonts and images), and the files are small, i.e. no more than a few pages, then open both publications in PM.  Tile the two publications side by side.  Add the required number of new pages to the first document, and have "New page 1" opposite "Page 1" of the second publication.
    With the pointer tool selected in the second publication, click Edit - Select All.  Then quickly drag all the objects acroos to "New Page 1" in the first publication.
    Do the same for the remaining pages - hence the requirement for not having too many pages.
    Use File - Save As to save the first publication with a new filename.  All links to images will be preserved.

  • Converting PageMaker doc to pdf: problem with special characters

    I am using PageMaker 7 on Windows XP. I converted a PageMaker document to pdf (I use Acrobat 8 Professional), which worked fine except for two special characters that didn't convert:  ć and ş, which convert as ae and a degree sign. What can I do to convert the document properly?
    Thanks!

    You may want to ask in the Acrobat forum since Reader is simply viewing the results.
    But I would suspect that you are having font embedding issues. Check to see that all fonts are embedded in the document. File>Properties>Fonts.

  • Converting PageMaker doc to pdf: special characters don't convert

    I am using PageMaker 7 on Windows XP. I converted a PageMaker document to pdf (I use Acrobat 8 Professional), which worked fine except for two special characters that didn't convert:  ć and ş, which convert as ae and a degree sign. It took me a while to do insert the characters--the font I was using didn't have the characters (these two and ï). So I used Calibri for the ï and Arial for the ć and ş (they didn't seem to work with Calibri). I checked to see if the fonts were embedded, and the weird thing is that Calibri was not but converted fine, and Arial was (at least, ArialMT was) and the ć and ş didn't convert.
    Help!

  • 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.

  • How do I convert a Finale Notepad file to ".pdf?"

    I have created a music notation score and in the online "help" from Finale, they suggest if you want to save a file as .pdf you have to purchase Acrobat.
    I did.
    When I tried to follow the directions below I cannot find the "postscrip" (*.ps) file that I "Print to File" with.  Here is what Finale instructs. I am using WIndows 7 if that helps. (I've tried naming the document a unique name and doing a "search" but it will not locate anything.
    There’s more than one way to create a PDF, but this method will give you more control over the results. See your Adobe Acrobat manual for full details.
    Open the file in Finale. 
    Choose File > Print. The Print dialog box appears.
    From the Destination popup menu, choose File. 
    Click Save. The Save dialog box appears.
    Give the file a name (you may wish to save it to the Desktop for convenience) and click Save. 
    Quit Finale and return to your Desktop. 
    Drag the PostScript Listing (*.PS) file to your Acrobat Distiller or launch the Acrobat Distiller and open the file. The Acrobat Distiller creates a PDF of your file in the same location and the same name before the period as your PostScript file.

    Hi, gfrerichs.
    Reader X cannot create a PDF file - it can only view and print existing PDF files.
    In order to create a PDF file (for example, print a webpage as a PDF, as you mentioned), you can purchase our CreatePDF service. This service includes a CreatePDF Printer which can print web pages to PDF.
    Or you could purchase Acrobat, which can also convert webpages to PDF.
