Pdf contents in Ibook shows black, why?

Regarding my heading and the first time that I have used this. I am looking for a little help.
I have used ibooks for sometime but this is the first time I have used the PDF section (under catogories) in ibooks.
I was able to download a pdf but unfortunately when I try to read my pdf, the pages are black with a few images here and there.
Any ideas

Open your PDF on any computer and view its properties, it should show you what created it.
OK, not sure why exactly.. but the PDF Producer: Acrobat Distiller 9.3.3(Macintosh) seems to be the culprit. (at least with my problem),
Something with that version of Distiller is not being decoded with my iPad properly.
I printed the faulty PDF with my version of Adobe to PDF (basically distilled a PDF to PDF) and the file now views fine on my iPad.(Acrobat Distiller 10.1.0 (windows)

  • .pdf files in iBooks on my iPad don't show in iBooks on my iMac. Why?

    when i installed iBooks on my iMac, only my purchased books show in the library.  PDF files I stored in iBooks on my iPad are not showing. Any ideas how I sync the pdf files?  They use a common Apple ID and I use iCloud for the iPad backup.

    Did you try using the transfer purchase feature of iTunes? I know that these may not be purchased PDF files, and it is only supposed to work with iTunes purchases, but I have done this myself with PDF files in iBooks.
    iTunes Store: Transfer purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    This feature works only for audio, video, and apps that you purchased from the iTunes Store. Any items that you imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources won't copy from your device to the iTunes library. However, copies of all PDFs and books from your device's iBooks app will transfer to the computer, regardless of whether they were purchased from the iBooks Store.

  • PDF documents show black pages or black images

    Why do some PDF documents show black pages or black images when opened in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro?

    On my regular tablet I have 9.4.5 and have not had problems as you describe. I am sorry that I can not play with that version this week as I do not have that machine available. For others that might be able to check the problem out, it might be useful if you post a sample page of your PDF for others to look at. Just enough that demonstrates the point. If you cannot do it with a page from the document you have, if it would be possible to post something similar to get at the point. If you are successful in creating a problem page, then it might be easier to figure out the problem.

  • After upgrading to IOS 5 on my iPad only some books in iBooks show content. They were fine before the upgrade. I made a new version in Pages and reinstalled them on the iPad. Still nothing. What is the fix?

    I just got the iBooks update and that fixed the problem, except the book covers look like they were done in a government printing office.

  • Why can't I open pdf file?  Get a black box with a white x in the upper left hand corner that won't

    Why can't I open pdf file?  Get a black box with a white x in the upper left hand corner that won't open either

    I get the same thing... no matter what site i try to pull a pdf for IE10, it gives me the black x... if i use chrome it works, but my client does not want to use a different browser.
    I followed the guide that Pat posted... nothing worked... I have uninstalled and reinstalled Java, Adobe reader, Adobe flash,.. upgraded to IE11, then back to IE10 due to medical software that is not compatable with IE11...
    The kicker is that my Admin profile works just fine.. no issues.. so i know it has something to do with his profile....
    Please.. someone... help!!!

  • PDf shows black when using PMS color

    I made a file for a postcard using 1PMS color & bk in ID6. When i exported to make a pdf - all looks fine.
    when i went to mai to client and i previewed in email b4 i sent, it appeared bk only. I snet to clent and the PMS show black. Any suggestions?

    I can't replicate your problem. Here's a PantoneReflexBlue PDF/X-4
    http://www.zenodesign.com/forum/REFLEX.pdf
    This is a long shot but did you rename the new X-4 pdf? If it has the same name maybe the old version is somehow being cached on your client's machine.
    The preview won't matter for the printer—it doesn't affect the separation when the job is spot color.

  • Why can't I open new PDF files into iBooks

    I cannot open new PDF files in iBooks, they flash really quick in PDF folder then disappear. I'm really frustrated

    I am running Safari Version 5.1.5 (6534.55.3) on my iMac 10,1.  After my last Adobe update, my pdf files are nothing but a black window.  Have tried reverting to an earlier version of Adobe, but still getting a black window.  What next steps should I take?  Thanks.

  • Showing PDF content

    Hi,
    I want to show PDF content which is coming from webservices in my flex application. Please suggest any ideas on how to show it.
    -Thanks
    Vishal Kumar

    Hi,
    #1
    do convertion server-side to format accessible in Flash runtime
    #2
    open new window (new location) in browser so user can see pdf content in separate window via PDF plugin
    #3
    depending on content you could be able to extract it all-client side and show in Flash runtime:
    http://code.google.com/p/purepdf/
    #4
    use air runtime or 3rd party solutions for non-web browser based solutions (so you would be able to embed pdf in your application directly).
    hth,
    regards,

  • Version of file protected by timestamp signature (3161) alone shows "Unrecognized PDF Content"

    Documents which have been signed with a RFC 3161 timestamp signature alone show "Report Code: 4000" described as "Unrecognized PDF Content" in the PDF Signature Report.  I access this report by selecting the signature in the panel and "Click to view this version", then an option to "View Report" is in the top right corner.
    Documents with digital signatures and attached timestamps from the same TSA verify properly and show no errors in the PDF Signature Report.
    All of the timestamps verify properly, though the TSA root certificate must be downloaded and trusted manually.
    Any ideas as to what's going on here?
    An example called InvoiceTS.pdf can be found here. You may also use the link to StarField below to timestamp any PDF you like; the problem occurs universally.
    Version Info: Problem shows in Acrobat X and XI and Reader X and XI, occurs in files with timstamps attached by both Acrobat X and XI.
    TSAs affected: DigiStamp, StarField
    Explicit Error:
    Unrecognized PDF content: The document contains PDF content or custom content not supported by the current version of Adobe Reader.The document appears to have been produced by a later version of Acrobat.

    I have been on the phone with Adobe support more times than I care to remeber about this issue.  It would be nice if the problem would be addressed so a capability Adobe claims to exist with Adobe X actually functions properly.

  • Embedding PDF in Powerpoint - showing filename only not PDF content

    Hi all,
    I have automated a powerpoint presentation to embed PDF's  into a powerpoint presentation...
    this all works great but on some machines the content does not show, it only shows as the filename... it is still embeded but I want the content of the PDF to be displayed on the slide... which it does on some machines and I can't see what is different on the PC's that it won't do that on...
    The command used to insert the PDF is ...
            ActiveWindow.Selection.SlideRange.Shapes.AddOLEObject(Left:=60, Top:=20, FileName:=strOutputPath & "\" & strFilename, link:=msoFalse).Select
    which is just an insert object from file command...
    Further investigation showed that even trying to do this manually still will not bring in the content in... so then as a test i inserted the PDF in an Excel spreadsheet and the same result... content appears on some PC's some just show the filename only...
    PS... I don't have the 'Show as icon' checkbox selected when i'm doing this.
    Any pointers in the right direction would be very much appreciated...
    Cheers
    Steve.

    OK - so Postscript and EPS are programming languages while PDF is not.  So it's not the same thing.   But I understand the concept.
    An XObject is correct - but a Form XObject NOT a reference XObject.  If this is for Acrobat, and you want to do this the quick and easy way, then call over to the addWatermark() method in JavaScript and let it do all the heavy lifting for you.  Or, for native plugin code in Acrobat, there is the AFPDFormFromPage() API that will also do the work of creating the necessary CosObj for you.
    For PDFLibrary, you will need to do the work yourself as there isn't a high level API call.

  • Why don't iBooks shows definition after I have updated to iOS 6?

    Why don't iBooks shows definition after I have updated to iOS 6?

    The same reason why you can't use it under iOS5. It's exclusive to devices since the iPhone 4S.
    (for selling new products)
    So iPhone 4S, iPad 3, iPhone 5 and iPod Touch 5.
    Thinking about other features, you may be interested in 3D-Maps, but there for, you need an A5 CPU or better.
    So iPad2, iPhone 4S, iPad 3, iPhone 5 and iPod Touch 5.

    AND
