Paths Disappear When Trying to Convert to Selection

When I draw a path and close it, and then click the selection button, it turns into a selection. But when I add another path, and close it, and click on the selection button, instead of both paths turning into selections, nothing happens, and the paths just quit. I know I used to be able to have multiple paths convert to selections in the past. What am I doing wrong now?

Let me put it another way. When I draw several different work paths, and save them, all is fine. They are all closed paths. If I click on the Stroke button, they stroke as expected. If I click on the Selection button, nothing happens, and the paths quit. They're still visible in the Path Panel, just no longer selected.

  • Error when trying to convert excel files to pdf

    I'm getting the following error when trying to convert .xls and .xlsx files to pdf, using the "Create PDF" option:
    Error message from the primary converter:
    ALC-PDG-010-012-PDFMaker reported an error while printing the document.
    Word, Powerpoint and Text files convert without any issues. Also I'm able to opent the excel files and convert them to pdf using the acrobat option in excel.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    It is always difficult when you need to convert multiple xls files to pdf or multiple sheets to pdf. If you have a single file to convert then the best method would be to copy your data to doc file and then convert it into PDF . If you have multiple files to convert then it is really difficult to convert all the files manually. Then the better method would be to use converter tool to convert excel to pdf . By doing this you can convert many files in just few seconds.

  • When trying to convert a pdf file into a word doc, i only get the graphics but not the text. How do i remedy this?

    When trying to convert a pdf file into a word doc I only get graphics but no text. What to do?

    Hey hamsa142,
    I think you are converting a scanned PDF to word.
    You might need to run OCR first to make the text recognizable and then convert it to word.

    Hi there Katie,
    I just checked your account, and see that it's active. Are you trying to sign in via Adobe Reader? If so, please choose Help > Check for Updates in Reader and make sure that it-s up-to-date. The most current version, 11.0.07, should alleviate that sign-in error.

    Sara,
    Please see my answers in bold below.
    What browser are you using? Try clearing the cache, or using a different browser. N/A
    Are you converting from within Reader, or directly via the ExportPDF website. Within Reader.I disabled the OCR and this did not work either. Try converting from within Reader, and disable OCR as detailed in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (OCR) when converting PDF to Word or Excel.
    Are you on a networked computer? Make sure that there aren't any firewall/proxy settings that are preventing you from uploading files to the Internet. Not having problems uploading the file--that works fine.
    Make sure the file is within the file-size limit of 100 MB. It is <40.
    I get the error message, "File failed to be converted using Adobe ExportPDF online."
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    How do I handle sign in trouble when trying to convert a document?

    Hi jeunes781,
    Are you having trouble signing in to ExportPDF via the website, or from within Reader? If you're using Reader, make sure that you have the most current version of Reader by choosing Help > Check for Updates in the Reader application.
    If the issue occurs when you try signing in via the ExportPDF website, please clear the browser cache and try again.
    (And if neither of those work, please write back and let us know what the specific error is, and where it occurs.)

  • PDF corrupted when trying to convert to PDF

    I have a problem converting a file to PDF from WORD 2007.
    The whole thing becomes corrupted, including: change in orientation of pages, omission of page numbers, corruption of tables...
    This happens when printing to PDF, saving as PDF, trying to convert to PDF outside WORD or using an online system... When using another converter (the one that comes with my Windows System), the file is still corrupt, just slightly less so.
    I think it must be a problem with the file as it doesn't happen when I try to convert other documents - but how to identify and eliminate that problem in the file? I tried to copy over to a different document, but that did not work either.
    One strange thing is also that once I ask WORD to print to PDF, it actually also changes the WORD file, with changing the orientation of the first pages etc. and the numbering of tables and figures.
    Urgent help required, as this is actually a scientific paper I need to resubmit today!!
    Many thanks!

    This sounds like a Word issue - simply formatting for printing is doing bad things to your file. Is it possible this is just the normal reflow Word does, and you are not set up to expect it? Expect line breaks to change, and hence text to move between pages.
    You may need to select the Adobe PDF printer as your default and "fix" the word document.
    The page numbers - are they automatic or typed manually?

  • PSE 10 stops working when trying to convert a project to wma

    The project is about 400 pictures with music selected to it. About 40 minutes long. When it has converted about 148 000 kb it stops working "has to shut down"
    I´ve tried a lot of solutions but nothing seems to work. Please help.

    Thanks for your reply.
    IE version 9.0.8112.16421; Adobe Reader version 10.1.3. Only in the last week IE stops responding when I try to open a .PDF file from the web – eg bus route map, catalogue etc.  The messages sometimes say “error in preview handler” and sometimes “runtime error – abnormal program termination” – each time the program is terminated. The Reader opens any previous saved files OK, both downloaded from web or via email. Occasionally one from the web displays, with the error message over the top, but am unable to scroll the document or picture, enlarge it etc. I tried copying the PDF file to put on the desktop, but all that copied was the icon for the file.

  • Error message when trying to convert powerpoint presentation to Adobe Acrobat PDF

    When trying to create an Adobe Acrobat PDF file from Powerpoint (save as Adobe PDF from the Print menu), Automator gives the following error message: "an error occurred while saving the PDF file". Currently using version 14.4.6 of Microsoft Powerpoint for Mac, 11.0.09 Adobe Acrobat and OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on iMac. Also had the same problem previously with Mavericks and Mountain Lion. The problem seems to be the Apple Automator not working correctly with the Acrobat interface. I create Acrobat PDF docs perfectly well on my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.7.5) and am scared to update to the latest version of OS X in case that also affects the ability to create PDFs.
    I have tried using Apple's own PDF creator, and doing this by first creating PS files then converting to PDF, however, many bugs appear in the files, and they are enormous - around 5x the size of Acrobat PDFs, so this is not an option. I have also tried troubleshooting with Adobe to no avail.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks,
    Jane

    Hi star2111,
    Please tell us a bit more about the error message that you're receiving, and where you're seeing it (in Adobe Reader, or the ExportPDF website?). It will also be helpful to know whether the error occur when just one file, or with any file that you try to convert.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
