PDF Creator: Problem ...

All
I have this PDF creator which prints my standard report to PDF format. I am logged in as the administrator. So everything works fine.
When I log in as a user, the PDF creator doesn't not print a PDF. Any clues to what might be happening ? Do I need to give access to certain features ? I am not sure what though
Thanks
Kudos always welcome for helpful posts

Well you should make sure you install the software for all users! However I think this is completely unrelated to LabVIEW and a post to the support forum of the makers of your PDF creator is a lot more likely to give you a useful answer.

Problem with pdf creator

The built in pdf creator does not seem to be able to handle docs from Word that have both portrait and landscape pages. Does anyone else have this problem, is there a fix for this?

Have you tried using PDF Creator support?

This isn't a Firefox support issue.

I have a problem with FOXIT pdf creator

I want to print a document off of word to my printer. Trouble is 'Fox IT PDF creator' will send the document to the fax.
I try & uninstall the program, but the pop up message says that it can't find the uninstall instructions. I tried system restore; no resolve.
This program for some reason got on my computer, a laptop. Though I like it, due to the fact Adobe isn't working very well & the PDF documents seem to load up very well on Fox-it.
Please share with me how to get around this problem.
Thanks for reading the problem,
sincerely,
Jeff Mick

Although there is a FOX in the name of that program, it isn't related to Firefox or Mozilla.
FoxIt support is over here: <br />

PDF Printing problems with networked HP Laserjet C5020N

Hello,
I'm having problems printing documents that I've created with the PDF creator of Office 2007. When I try to print only the first page, the printer correctly prints, but when I try any other job (printing the whole document, only the 2nd page, page 1 and 2, and so on) the printer refuses and prints one sheet that says:
Error Name: /undefined
Offending Command: --file--
Operand Stack:
I use Adobe Reader 8.1.0.

Also having other "permission" based problems as well. Other people cannot open my PDFs even though I have not used any security. I'm thinking about getting a previous version of Accrobat Pro and installing that.

Quark / PDF Printing Problems (Save as PDF in OS X)

I upgraded from Quark 4.1 to 6.5 about a year ago, and ever since then the files I create and print don't look as good. The primary issue seems to be color -- colors don't come out as deep, there seems to be less color saturation, sometimes colors are just pretty far off. I'm working in Mac OS 10.4.8.
For many years my method has been to design documents and output as PDFs to be professionally printed. These days my PDFs don't print as well. I suspect that the problem has to do with the process of creating the PDF. In Quark 6.5 I create PDFs by selecting "Save as PDF" from Quark's Print menu. Back when I was using 4.1, since Quark didn't have a built-in PDF-creator, I would go into the Chooser, select AdobePS as my printer, and then just choose Print in Quark and it would "print" to a PDF.
One other problem I've had since the upgrade is that the PDFs Quark creates are HUGE files -- tens or hundreds of megs -- often too large to email. When I used to create PDFs from the identical Quark files using 4.1, the resulting PDFs printed much better and were much smaller files (often far less than 1 meg). Solving the color problem is a higher priority for me than solving the file size issue, though.
I've spent a lot of time trying to troubleshoot this with our local printer here in Albany, NY (the same guy who printed my stuff in the old days, when it came out looking a lot better). Things we've tried that haven't seemed to solve the problem:
- Increasing the LPI to 300
- Checking the box for Full Resolution Tiff Output
- Experimenting with OPI active and not
- Experimenting with different PDF options like "Save as PDF," "Compress PDF," "PDF-X," etc. (Compress PDF does result in smaller PDFs, but the quality of the resulting prints is even worse)
Also, if anyone has suggestions about Quark-specific forums I could post this to, let me know. I tried creating an account on the discussion forms on Quark's website, but I don't receive their confirmation email to confirm my account.
Any advice greatly appreciated -- thanks so much!

Marshall,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
colin clarke1’s info is spot on. I will add a bit more. Acrobat Professional includes Distiller in addition to a print driver called Adobe PDF 7.0 (version number matches version of Acrobat). I think the print driver installs automatically, but if not, you should choose to install it and then it will show in your list of printers. This will allow you to make PDFs from Quark XPress much as you did with Quark 4.1.
Distiller comes with some pre-defined Settings (formerly know as Job Options) for different types of printing, i.e., Smallest file (low-resolution like online viewing), Standard, High Quality, Press Quality and others. These Settings are general standards in the industry in terms amount and type of image compression, font embedding, color management, compatibility with previous Acrobat versions and etc.
colin clarke1’s method of saving a Quark doc as a PostScript and then distilling it is one method. (You can set this in your Quark Preferences.) Alternatively, you could do the following within Quark XPress…
(a) Select Print, which brings up the Print window. At the bottom of the window are some buttons. Click on Page Setup and in its window, for Format for: select the Adobe PDF 7/8, the appropriate Paper size and then OK.
(b) Returning to the Quark print window, make all the necessary choices for Layout, Setup, Output, Options, Layers, Bleed, OPI and Profiles.
(c) Next, click on the button Printer (at the bottom) which brings up a Mac OS print window. Click to the right of Printer and select Adobe PDF 7/8. Next, click and hold on Copies & Pages for a drop-down list of options and select PDF Options. Click on the bar to the right of Adobe PDF Settings and a list of Distiller Settings will pop up and select the one that best fit the type of printing you are doing, e.g., Press Quality. If you want to see the PDF version afterwards, then select Acrobat for After PDF Creation. Click Ok.
(d) Returning to the Quark print window, click Print button (lower right). A Save window appears for you to name your document and select where you wish to save in on your computer. (If you choose to see the PDF afterwards, then Acobat will launch and the PDF will then appear in Acrobat.)
You could learn more about the latest version of Acrobat 8.0 (released November 2006) by Adobe’s “tour” at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/productinfo/features/
Hope this helps.

Documents get shrunk by pdf creator

I have Acrobat Pro 9 (9.4.3.321) and used to have no problems with the pdf printer.
Of late, however, when I create pdf files with it, the original document becomes shrunk down to a ridiculous (and unusable) degree. I don't recall changing any settings and, looking through them, can't find one that looks wrong.
Today I printed an A4 300 dpi sheet from Photoshop at High Quality Print setting. The original file was 2480x3508 pixels. When it opens in Acrobat I have to blow it up to 1600% to be anywhere near original size and (naturally) only get rough pixels. When I try to open the pdf in Photoshop, the import dialog shows the dimensions as 1.26 x 1.78 cm ... with the same pixelated mess resulting when opened.
I assume I am missing something really obvious ... so if someone could point me in the right direction I would be very much abliged.
PS If I copy the the original image to the clipboard and 'Create PDF from Clipboard' in Acrobat, the result is fine ... but I WOULD like to use the printer again.

Really think your are in the wrong forum here: this is about Adobe Captivate, not about 'Acrobat Pro' if that is what you mean by 'PDF Creator'? Please post in one of the forums over here:

PDF -- Word problems

As a teacher, i purchased Adobe Export PDF to create Word documents as exams for students.
I am very unhappy with the quality of the product being created.
The graphs and pictures especially are not converted well enough to be submitted to students as exams.
So do i ask for a refund or is there a way around this problem ???
Thanks
Jane

Hi, Jane,
If you have not share your pdf on the link that Sarabjit provided, could you send me your PDF file ([email protected]), so I can take a look? I suspect that your pdf file was produced with certain third party pdf creator, which data components are not compatible with our Export PDF.
Thanks.

Good day, I have installed Acrobat DC, and would like to combine 2 files. One is excel allready converted to PDF - No problem. The other one is from Pastel mailed as PDF.

Good day,
I have installed Acrobat DC, and would like to combine 2 files. One is excel allready converted to PDF - No problem. The other one is from Pastel mailed as PDF.
When trying to merge the files, this file ask for a Password. No password was issued from the setup or mail?

Good day abrieb93050306,
I can understand your concern, however can you please let me know that are you able to open both the PDF files ( the one you converted form excel to pdf & the other pdf that was mailed to you ) individually without using any password?
As it asks for the password, it means that the postal mailed PDF is password protected. You can ask for the password from the sender of the postal mail & then try to combine the files.
Please follow the steps in the provided KB doc.to combine the files : Combine files into single PDF | Adobe Acrobat DC tutorials
This will probably resolve your issue.
Let me know if you still experience any issue.
Regards,
Aadesh

PDF Download Problem with Mozilla

Actually more of a nuisance. Whenever I download (when in OS 9.2.2 using the Mozilla browser) a PDF document, the file downloads OK, however, instead of having the PDF icon it has a PictureViewer/QuickTime icon and the file Type is GIFf & Creator Code is ogle. Naturally, it won’t open using Adobe Reader. I have to change the file Type to PDF & Creator Code to CARO. Then Adobe Reader will open the file. The change in the Type and Creator Code does not change during download when using iCab or Explorer. I couldn’t find any setting in Mozilla that could cause this.
Any suggestions?
 Cheers, Tom

Hi, Tom -
Check the settings for Helper Apps (IE calls them File Helpers) in Mozilla - since I don't use it, I'm not conversant with where they might be, although I'd imagine they'd be somewhere in its Preferences.
Check also the settings in the Internet control panel, Advanced tab, File Mapping section; and the settings in the PC Exchange and File Translation tabs in the File Exchnage control panel.
Make sure all appropriate ones are set to use Acrobat Reader as the linked app for PDF (or .pdf) files. There may be more that one linked pair in any of those places.

10.6.8 combo & 10.6.7 pdf fonts problem

Does the 10.6.8 update combo correct the pdf fonts problem that was inherent to 10.6.7? After a couple days of stress I had to do the lengthy 10.6.7 uninstall process in order to refine my doctoral dissertation. This has made me gun-shy & fearful of updates. Is it safe to update now?

The combo should fix your problem. As always have a back-up in case you have to revert.
The Font update came out to fix the problem in 10.6.7

It should be rolled into the Combo-Update:

FrameMaker 10 Trial not installing Acrobat PDF Creator

Hi, I am trying to install the Trial Edition of FrameMaker 10 on a Windows 7 PC, for evaluation.
The installation of FM10 completes, however PDF Creator 10 is not installed even though I select for it to be done. I would guess that there should be a separate installer process run by the main FM10 installer, to install PDF Creator 10. This never happens.
There are no error messages from the install program, but when I check the installer log I find:
Testing dependency: Adobe PDF Creation Add-On 10 with relationship Recommended
Adding failed payload to recommended list
and
Checking operation result for {AC76D478-1033-0000-3478-000000000005} Adobe PDF Creation Add-On 10 10.0.0.0
Recording dependent operation failure for payload: {A6828F8A-83D7-4fff-B763-F69122BB1D74} Adobe FrameMaker 10_AdobeFrameMaker10.0.1_en_US 10.0.1.0
and
DW050: The following payload errors were found during install:
DW050: - Adobe PDF Creation Add-On 10: Install failed
I understand that attempting to install Adobe products is problematic if previous versions are present on the machine, so I took great care to remove all traces of previous installs of Acrobat etc. before starting.
Please could someone from Adobe assist? I would like to evaluate FM10 with PDF Creator 10 but am unable to due to the buggy installer.
Note: What makes this even more frustrating is that running the installer for PDF Creator on its own gives the message 'Cannot Install Alone, Please Run Installer for FrameMaker'!

Hi,
Could you please confirm if you already have Adobe Acrobat/ Adobe RoboHelp installed on your machine, if so the add on might not be installed as the componenets required to create a PDF (under Adobe PDF creation Add on) might be already installed there?
Just do a test to confirm if the PDF creation functionality is working fine--
Launch FrameMaker
Create a Dummy Document
Select File save as PDF
Verify if you get a PDF file created at the chosen location?
Good Luck!
Thanks,
Anjaneai

Office PDF Print and office PDF creator(adobe plugin) create different line thickness result

Hi together,
Office PDF Print and office abobe PDF creator(adobe plugin) create different result. It seems that Adobe PDf creater improves line thickness to 1pt instead of 0,3pt. Is there a setting to change to original 0,3 because this 0,3 are standard line thickness for our documents. with adobe V9 the line was 0,3pt. (we need thin, mid and thick lines)
After 2 day's google searching this is the last change for hope :-)
Software Versions

MS Office 2007 (12.0.6668.5000) SP3 MSO (12.0.6662.5000)
Adobe Acrobat X (10.1.7)
Left: MSO Adobe Plugin / MId: MS Word / Rigth: PDF printed over "print" AdobePDF printer

Hi Bill,
Thanks a lot for the fast reply, i have tested it with 300dpi but I didn't get a different result. The bad thing is that not all lines getting thicker. if there is no arrow or ball at the end of the line the line thickness will not change (see Pic). I think this is a Acrobat error, i don't think that this will improve the pdf quality if the progam changes only some lanes and not all to 1pt.
I Think we must downgrade to version 9.

Illustrator cs6 + msword to pdf + links problem

Hello!
BACKGROUND:
I have a TABLE that I need to inserted into my ILLUSTRATIOR file.
Whatever method I'm using is failing as the text comes in but NOT the table.
Instead, I just do this: MSWORD > Print PDF > in Illustrator > Place PDF.
PROBLEM:
But when I want to make CHANGES TO THE PDF (changes in MS WORD DOC - REprint to PDF). The PDF file does NOT show up in the LINKS Box.
Therefore, I can't UPDATE it. I'm always having to re-insert the PDF file -- INSTEAD of like the other files PSD, or .JPG, or whatever else gets UPDATED.
QUESTION:
WHY DOES THE PDF FILE not like the OTHER files that just hang out and can be updated in the LINKS box?
Thank you,
M>

I'm using PC... but the LINK selection was NOT CHECKED.
Funny. I never checked that when I placed all the other IMAGES -- like ever.
Thanks, Larry, that's exactly what needed to be done!!!!!
SOLUTION: PLACE > Check LINK box. Done.
