Pages pdf doesn´t print text and effects

hello,
I have generated a pdf from my pages document, which looks fine on the screen (also in acrobat). sadly its not possible to print out the pdf properly, the complete text is missing, only the header and the images without effects show up on paper, though acrobat tells me that the fonts are embedded.
any ideas, work arrounds?
thanks for your help

It is a public document at the county clerk's office.
I noticed that if I download it in Firefox there is not scaling problem. Also, Firefox is set to automatically download the file to my computer. When using Safari, the pdf is viewing from within Safari. If you try to print from this view, you'll notice the preview is scaled wrong. Also, if you download to pdf in the print menu, the pdf will exhibit the same scaling problem, but if you download the pdf using save as, it scales correctly. Is this a Safari bug?

  • I have nine, 1-page PDF files that are accessible and need to combine into 1 PDF file.  I have tried appending, adding and the combine PDFs process. The file created is not keeping my changes. The created file is partially accessible but I have to re-fix

    I have nine, 1-page PDF files that are accessible and need to combine into 1 PDF file.  I have tried appending, adding and the combine PDFs process. The file created is not keeping my changes. The created file is partially accessible but I have to re-fix issues I had fixed in the single files. I need suggestions on what else can be done if any. Using Acrobat pro XI.

    Out of habit, I tend to combine PDF files in the Page Thumbnails pane by right-click then "Insert Pages" -> "From File". For me, this preserves the tags from both documents, although the tags may have to be moved into the right location (if I recall correctly the tags for the inserted pages get put at the end of the tag structure, regardless of where the pages are inserted), If I first put the tags for the document to be inserted inside a container tag like Section, it makes the process easier. Moving that set of tags to the right place is the only re-fixing that I recall having to do. What behavior are you experiencing?

  • I have a one-column table in pages.  Each cell has text and a number separated by a colon.  Can I automatically make it two column with everything to the right of the colon in the second column?

    I have a one-column table in pages.  Each cell has text and a number separated by a colon.  Can I automatically make it two column with everything to the right of the colon in the second column?

    Here's another way that is pretty quick to do.
    Formula in Column B is:
    =LEFT(A, FIND(":", A))
    Formula in Column C is:
    =RIGHT(A, LEN(A)-FIND(":", A))
    You can eliminate the colon from the result in column B by writing:
    =LEFT(A, FIND(":", A)-1)
    Once you do the conversion, you should freeze the result by Selecting columns B and C and then Command-C, Edit > Paste Values.

  • Printing text and images together on a single page (printjob)

    Hello all,
    how am I able to print both text and images on the same page (defined by one printjob), using the javax.print API?
    It seems that one printjob (one page) can have only one flavor, that is text, or GIF, or JPEG, etc. Since the majority of print jobs out there usually require text and graphics on the same sheet this seems a bit strange.
    I have resorted on creating a PDF file through the iText library, and then printing by converting to GIF (quality is significantly reduced though, not an option), or by using the Acrobat Reader command line from java (looks dangerous for batch printing). My printer does not support printing directly using the PDF flavour.
    So, I solved the problem by converting to PDF, but printing is still cumbersome. Any other ideas?
    Thank you for your time,
    Ari.

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • How can I/Is it possible to silently print a PDF with specific print settings and obtaining the resulting job id (in windows at least)?

    Greetings,
    I have a specific application for Windows I'm developing where I need to silently print a PDF to a real printer.  The trick is I need to set specific printing preferences ... such as color/monochrome, # of copies, page size / source tray, etc.   The printer is always set to spool documents, and it is key that I know the job id (even if its already done printing) of the resulting print job.
    With windows APIs mixed in, I would imagine something like ...
    OpenPrinter(printername)
    StartDocPrinter(...)
    -----> some SDK call to print the document based on the handles I pass it...or perhaps one page at a time after I call StartPagePrinter()
    EndDocPrinter(...)
    ClosePrinter()
    I've been searching for something for days that would give me this sort of control, but I've been finding the documentation very difficult to find on silently printing a PDF through any means other than a command line which doesn't appear to give me the information or control I need.
    Is this possible with the Adobe SDK? 
    I've seen other posts accomplish this by changing the printing defaults for the printer, and then sending the job silently with a commandline.  This has two problems for me: 1) I still don't know the Job ID of the print job, and 2) I can't rely on the idea that other unrelated print jobs will not be sent while I'm processing the PDF ... making it difficult to use defaults as a means of controlling the settings without causing a lot of side effects.
    Even just a point in the right direction would be a huge help for how I could accomplish this.  
    Thanks a lot,
    Wayne

  • Hp c7180. Test page has got lines across text and colours.

    My Hp photosmart c7180 is not printing to a good quality.
    My problems started when the cleaning mechanism was not able to go back to the home position and this then caused the print head to slam up to the cleaning mechanism (there is two plastic tabs that it hit). I then went inside the machine and found that the cleaning mechanism is on a runner with the rubber and a few other things. I freed up this mechanism and got it to slide up and down several times. i then put the machine back together printed a test page and the inks were very faint. After cleaning the head and doing an alignment several times, the inks are becoming more clear but still not right. There is a lot of lines through the text and the blocks of colour.
    I did a print of a page of small text and the quality was fine. I printed a picture in greyscale and it has greens and reds in it. Also the larger text is blurred on some lines (not all the text on the same line is blurred)
    What do i do now ??
    There is also a roller that is spinning more than it used to. This is located underneath the print head towards the back of the printer.( It is connected to the little cogs on the left which pump the ink to the heads i think) Any suggestions on this would also be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks

    Thank you for the detailed post rileyc.
    I would like to help you with the printing issue you are experiencing. I understand the issue seems to be related to the ink system or potentially the driver. The best plan of attack is to narrow down the root cause.
    Can you please perform a colour copy that contains black spots too? I would like to see if the printer hardware can duplicate a page without any quality issues. Please let me know the outcome of the copy and we can go from there. Thanks

  • Integrating an Exisitng multiple page PDF file into a report and outputting as one PDF

    Post Author: sditmer
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    We would like to be able to  PDF files into a report based on a file name contained in the detail of the report. For Example, I have some data in our database relating to a specifc PDF file  including the name of the PDF that I would like to print in the header of the report and then print the actual PDF as the detail of the report. The PDF may be multiple pages so I would like the remaining pages of the report to follow on each page of my crystal report. Essentially I am trying to merge a  report header onto a mulitple page PDF file as a single report. Is this possible to do out of the BOX with Crystal? Do I need some other tools to do this?

    Post Author: IdoMillet
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    Consider a 3rd-party tool as a solution (for a list of such tools, see http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html).My Visual CUT software allows you to automate the process of merging the pdf export of your reportwith a pdf file named based on a formula in the report.  The resulting merged pdf file can automatically be printed or emailed.

  • Resolution of Pages PDF for offset printing

    I'm making a brochure for my wife's company. I've already made it in Photoshop (on my PC). I've duplicated it in Pages (tri-fold template). The pdf made in PS is about 25MB. The pdf made by pages is about 1.3MB. The printer wants files that are 350ppi. And now that I think of it, they also want them in the CMYK color space. Pretty sure Pages won't do that. Anyway, anyone made a document that was printed by a service (offset press)?

    I'd agree with what Peter says but for a possible few points.
    1. As you have calibrated monitors, you presumably have a spectrophotometer and a monitor calibration / monitor characterisation package. The package should autoinstall the ICC profile for the state of the display and set the ColorSync Utility and the Display control panel correctly. However, take care that you don't override these settings manually. The typical mistake is to use the display profile as the profile for colour correction. The reason this is a mistake is that your display typically has a smaller colour space than your offset printing condition, except if you are printing on lowend gray newsprint or lowend gray magazine paper as in US SWOP. For any half-decent printing gamut, use a larger colour correction space such as ECI-RGB or AdobeRGB or if you are digital then PhotoGamutRGB by the pro photographers in Germany. If you can't define a colour in the colour correction space you can't define the colour in the output space - you have to have the colour to be able to print the colour.
    2. In using the PDF/X-3 workflow, check with your printer for the bleed box and trim box. If you don't have to have transparency, try staying away from it in your design. The idea is that PDF is output to a determinate imaging area for the page itself, which you define in Page Setup, but printing processes have different needs of additional space and this additional space is customisable. If you do have transparency, set the transparency flattening appropriately in the PDF/X-3 dialogue. Finally, talk to your printer about the printing condition and determine if there is a house printing condition for which an ICC printing profile is available or if the shop supports ISO 12647 in which case you can get prebuilt ICC profiles at www.eci.org and the measurement data itself to build your own gamut mapping and black generation at www.color.org which is the home of the International Color Consortium.
    Probably a bit rambling, sorry about that.

  • Inserting multi-page PDF file in Appleworks text document.

    When inserting a multi-page PDF document in an Appleworks text file, it only inserts the first page.
    How do I insert all the pages at once?
    Ron

    As far as I know you must break you PDF in single pages documents.
    Then you will be able to drag and drop all of them in a single process but it will be time consuming to move them so that they are correctly located in the layout;
    Inserting them one by one will be more efficient.

  • PDFs won't print (Lion and HP laserjet 1300)

    I just upgraded to Lion and pdfs won't print. It doesn't appear to be the printer driver, because the printer works with others apps. Any suggestions? It's an HP Laserjet 1300. Yes, it's old, but still works, well, sometimes. just not with pdfs.

    Hi Andreais,

  • Combining printed text and audio

    I have a custom-made PC with a 146 gig hard drive and 3.25 gigs of ram, and am using Premiere Pro as part of CS4 Extended Master Collection. I hooked up with an audio techie on a Mac and purchased Premiere Pro for him. We are hoping to issue dvds of spoken word performances, like Paradise Lost, where viewers will be able to listen to a reading and follow it along on a screen. We would use a format similar to the ones they use for the Bible, where there is a book with the text on the pages and the pages turn or something like that as the audio goes on. I would design the text in ID, which I've done before with a prize-winning book of my own. A few Qs:
    1. Is Premiere Pro the right program to do this in? If it isn't, what, hopefully in the Adobe family, is?
    2. Assuming that it is, we want to do a short dry run with a single page or two just for the sake of practicing the coordinating of text and audio. Can this be done with my giving him the text in MS Word or Word Perfect, or must I typeset it for him?
    Thanks,
    Karla

    One possible way - not the only way:
    Decide what font size/how many lines per page will work for the screen sizes you want to use. Remember resolution will vary.
    Reformat your Word doc to these settings.
    Turn off as many toolbars as possible.
    Use alt printscreen to capture the displayed page.
    Open Accessories\Paint and press ctrl V to paste the screen capture. (Note: there will be a dialog box to the effect that the capture is larger. Click OK.)
    There will be unwanted stuff on the edges and top, etc. Do not try to crop anything at this stage!
    Save the file as a jpg as this will make for a smaller file size.
    Be careful in your filenaming convention, e.g., if you think there will be 1000 pages, call the first one "Page_000001.jpg." This will allow the pages to sort in the proper order.
    Just create a small sample of 20 or so pages to begin with to test your workflow.
    Open Premiere, set up your project for whatever output you want to use, like DV at 720x480 or ....? You'll have to do some testing to see what works best.
    Import your audio file and place it on the timeline. Play it to see if there are any problems.
    Import your 20 files, but do not check the sequential files checkbox - you do not want to automatically create a movie. You just want individual files.
    Select the first page and drag it onto the video timeline. Play the timeline and mark where the first page's audio ends. Now drag the left edge of the video clip to the marker.
    This should give you a page of "text" that matches the length of the audio.
    Move the current time cursor to the mark and drag your second page into position so it starts there. Play the audio, mark the endpoint, drag video clip to match. Repeat until done. (Or until exhausted!!)
    SAVE FREQUENTLY using sequential numbers in the filenames so you always have a (somewhat) recent backup version.
    There may be better ways to do all of this, but at least this will give you some starting points to work with.
    Once you are ready to export the video, you can use the crop function (up at the top of the export page dialog) to trim off all the unwanted borders. You can switch between input & output to see how it will look. If you tried cropping in Paint, you would have to do each page individually, and this job will be hard enough as it is!!
    Best of Luck!!
    HTH,:-)

  • Why do I have to turn off and on my HP office jet 7500A every time I want to print a page?  I can print one and imediatly try to print a second and it says it cant be found on the network.

    Since going up to Lion I am having problems with my HP Officejet 7500A printer.  It is on the network wirrelessly.  After every page I have to turn the printer off and back on again because my mac cant find the printer on the network.  The windows mechines here can still find it, but not my Mac Pro.  What is going on?
    Obviously I have it set up right because I can print to it.  problem is my mac thinks it goes off line every time I tell it to print another document. 
    Anyone know of a fix?
    Thanks!

    Lion may have replaced files that partially made up your printer drivers. Either way, HP saw fit to make a new set of drivers specifically for 10.7 so you may want to use it simply to avoid any bugs tehy found.

  • After upgrading to Snow Leopard, Canon MX870 doesn't print text...just images

    After upgrading to Snow Leopard (yes I know I'm slow to upgrade) my Canon MX870 isn't printing text. It is printing images but the quality if horrendous because it's not printing the black ink.
    Here's what I've done so far
    Installed the latest drivers for Snow Leopard from Canon
    Cleaned the heads of the printer
    Added new ink to all cartridges
    Run printing tests (nozzle print patterns)...all good
    Reset my printers in the Print Fax Preferences and added in the printer again
    Numerous restarts
    Now I'm at a loss for what else to do. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
    BTW, printer is connected via USB not wireless.

    OK well I can see now that all of my files are present on the hard drive (mybook) only they are not showing up in aperture. It seems that there has been some sort of communication breakdown between the two.
    As I said several files are missing and or corrupt in my aperture library. I'm wondering if there is a way to rebuild the library without using the vault technique? Does this make sense to anyone?
    I was able to go into finder - mybook - aperture library - show contents and see that all my raw files at least are there. Now I just need to get aperture to recognize them.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • Print text AND pictures

    Hi,
    I have a psc 1355 AIO. When I have written a document in Open Office Writer with text and pictures and want to print the document, it suddenly comes out with text and an empty space where the pictures should have been. It has never done that before (it´s an exelent printer!). I have gone through everything I can think of but can not find what is wrong!
    Can anyone give me a hint. Thanks!!

    What printer model? What operating system? How is the printer connected - USB, wired LAN, Wireless LAN, bluetooth? Are there any error messages?  What program are you printing from?
    The symptom you describe could be caused by an empty (or defective) black cartridge.
