PDF Default Presets Missing - CS5.5

I recently upgraded from InDesign CS4 to CS5.5. I uninstalled CS4 (with help/advice from Adobe's Tech. Support). Now my default PDF Print settings are missing. I only see the "Define" option.
Is there a way to re-load these presets?
Any help would be appreciated.
iMac - i7
3.4 GHz
16 GB DDRS
OS 10.6.8
CS5.5. Master Collection

Thanks for the response.
I uninstalled CS4 after installing CS5.5 (I later learned that it would have probably been best to just install CS5.5 [without ever installing CS4] and use my CS4 registration # to install CS5.5.. I called Adobe Tech. Support to get advice and direction and they are the ones that told me I should have not problem and thus I uninstalled CS4).
I didn't have any custom presets...so, I'm just looking to install/regain the standard PDF print presets that should be loaded each time I launch InDesign.

[CS5] Using PDF Export Preset from Distiller with InDesign, doesn't work the same?

Hello,
We are in the process of reworking one of our workflows in which we would manually use Distiller to create a PDF. Now we are trying to automate this with InDesign. My first thought was that I could try using the same PDF Export Preset (.joboptions file) used in Distiller, load it into InDesign, and export my book as a PDF using this preset.
For my current testing example, there are about 115 pages in this PDF document. The PDF that Distiller created is of pretty good quality, and is about 34MB. When I used the same .joboptions file to export an InDesign book of the same original documents as a PDF, the result is equal in quality, but is about 119MB.
Does anyone know why they aren't even close in file size? Is InDesign packing more stuff (maybe related to the actual InDesign documents, or the book itself) into the final PDF? If so, is there anyway to get InDesign to give a similar PDF (in terms of both size and quality) using the .joboptions file from Distiller?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply!
I won't be able to use Acrobat Pro, and my hope is to continue using InDesign/InDesign Server. Since my goal is to match what Distiller produces, is there a way (with InDesign) to export PDFs but to strip out the layers/interactivity/transparency that Distiller does not support? The output PDF will be used for archive purposes only.
Thanks again for any advice!

HELP - lost pdf export presets?!

Help! This morning I began work in ID and suddenly discovered that my long list of PDF export presets (which I use for work daily) was simply gone. I have only the default list - screen, print, press, etc. These are very complex presets that I need on a daily basis to produce files for my clients - I really need them.
What happened?? Nothing is different about today; I went through my standard work process this morning. Nothing traumatic happened to ID. I repaired disk permissions and restarted yesterday, but that was a standard maintenence procedure for me - nothing unusual.
This morning I noticed that the files in the user>library>pref?Adobe InDesign folder all showed as being modified at 8:30 this morning, when I started work.
I back up my files and can probably (I hope) recover any missing file - but where exactly is it? I can simply replace the entire preference folder in my user folder...
thx

Just checking: I think this is what I do now: open Export PDF dialog; set all options,
and click Save Preset... in bottom left? they then all appear permanently under File>PDF Export Presets and in Export PDF dialog. Is that what you mean?
(don't mean to bug you, Buko; I appreciate all the help as ever. just trying to collect all new info.)

How can I set up a default page in CS5-CC?

Save or modify one of the presets here on Mac (windows similar location):

When making a new document, choose the preset you saved.

Premiere CC presets missing and Can't Open Sequence error

I'm having a couple problems with Premiere.
I was working on a project that's been just fine for a while, but now when I try to open it, Premiere gives the error:
"This project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
Also, in any project when I'm creating a new sequence, there are no useful presets. I found the sequence presets folder, and they're all in there, but they don't show up from within Premiere.
Also, when I import AVCHD .MTS files, I get video but no audio, even though they play ok in VLC
Solutions I have tried but which do not solve anything:
1. Sign out, restart Premiere, sign back in
2. Recreate the Adobe Premiere Pro preferences and plug-in cache. (using shift/option combo)
3. uninstall premiere, reboot, run cleaner script, reboot, reinstall premiere
4. uninstall premiere, reboot, run cleaner script, reboot, create new user account, install premiere in that user account instead of original account
I am aware of this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/kb/features-presets-missing-premiere-pro.html
and this page: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html
Some pages I've come across have suggested running the cleaner script multiple times, but you can really only run it once, because after the first cleaning, when you run it again nothing shows up on the list to be cleaned. Are there still remnants of Adobe stuff left on my machine uncleaned by the cleaner script that I need to delete manually?
Has anyone else had this problem but not had any of the adobe-suggested solutions work for them and eventually fixed this?
This is Adobe Premiere CC 2014. I'm running it on a Mac Book Pro that's less than a year old, running OSX 10.9.5 w/ 16GB of memory.
This is INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING. I've spent most of the day troubleshooting this issue and all I want to do is edit my video. A cursory search of the internet shows that I am far from alone in having this problem. Also, reinstalling is not trivial because the download speeds where I am are slow.

Well, it took a long time, but I eventually got it working properly. All of the presets and codecs show up, I can import AVCHD files properly with audio, and the project I couldn't open before now opens fine, so it turned out not to be a corrupt project. It looks like the problem was that the cleaner script didn't actually clean everything it should have, and I had to do it all manually.
I uninstalled all of the Adobe Creative Cloud software, rebooted, ran the CC Cleanup script, and rebooted again.
Then I uninstalled Flash and ALL other Adobe software I had on my machine.
Then I used the Find Any File app to find every reference on my Mac to any file with "adobe" in the name--including system files--and deleted them and emptied the trash.
The only Adobe things I left on my machine were the Adobe RGB color profile and any Adobe fonts I had.
Empty the trash again, reboot again.
Then I used the CC installer to install Premiere and only Premiere (I didn't even install Adobe Media Encoder) because I didn't want to go through all that download time only to have it fail on me again.
And at long last it worked. Then I went back and installed Media Encoder, which didn't seem to break anything, so I went back and installed the other CC software I wanted on my machine, and things are working at last.
The "cleaner" script leaves a LOT of Creative Cloud-related files on your machine, which, in my opinion, means it's not a very effective "cleaner." It seems to want to leave a lot of preference files and other files whose purpose I don't know (but I deleted them anyway). There should at least be a checkbox somewhere on the cleaner that says "wipe absolutely everything related to Adobe off of my machine".
Thanks again for your suggestions, Neil.

3D Cube Mesh Preset missing in Photoshop CS6 Extended?

I only see the Cube Wrap, which puts the same texture on all faces. I want to have a different image on each face, and the Cube Preset in CS5 lets me do that.
Am I missing something in CS6?

Both the CS5 and CS6 v13.0.1 "Cube" models have problems.
The CS5 cube has good geometry with no gaps between faces, but the left and right faces have U and V directions swapped, which results in their textures being rotated by 90 degrees.
Faces except the right are initialised with an empty 512 x 512 pixel texture but the right face texture has the size of the main document, which very often will not be square and results in that texture being stretched on the square face of the model.
The model is presented with back face toward the camera when the 3D layer is created.
The CS6 v13.0.1 cube has good UV mapping, but the front face of the model is misaligned, which results in edge gaps being rendered as lines.
Faces except the front are initialised with an empty 512 x 512 pixel texture but the front face texture has the size of the main document, which very often will not be square and results in that texture being stretched on the square face of the model.
At least it is presented with front face toward the camera when the 3D layer is created.
It's astounding that in v13.0.1 that something as simple as a cube model is still botched. There really must be a shameful deficit of software testing at Adobe Photoshop.

PDF Export Presets

Hello guys,
to add a pdf export preset to the indesign server the file has to be placed into a directory like
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PDF/Settings
on OSX systems and additionally the server has to be restarted. Is there a way to update the preset list without restarting the server? Maybe something similar to
Application.updateFonts()
? I know that a preset can also be added by scripting
Application.pdfExportPresets.add()
but what if I would like to import an existing preset file automatically?
Thanks!

try below code
    for(var Ep=0; Ep < app.pdfExportPresets.length; Ep++)
        var myPdfPreset = app.pdfExportPresets.item(Ep);
        if (String(app.pdfExportPresets.item(Ep).name) != '[Default]')
            myPdfPreset.remove();
    var pdfExportPresets;
    myPreset=File("path");///give full path of the job option
   app.importFile(1918071916, myPreset);
    myPdfPreset=app.pdfExportPresets.lastItem();

Import and Update PDF Export Preset

Hey there again!
I'm now trying to define a preset for the PDF Export process... it's based on the "High Quality Print" (from the Adobe PDF Preset list), and then I want to change "one or two" parameters.
Changing one or two parameters is easy, I've been doing that already, but since most of them are already defined by the "High Quality Print" Preset, my idea was:
Load the "High Quality Preset"
And after that change the required parameters
And then export to PDF of course!
How can this be done?
Many thanks!!
Best regards.

@m8r-vrpa5v – I think, it is not best practice to change a default PDF Export Preset. Instead I would add a new preset based on the default one.
When looking at your code you have to use the right syntax.
Every time you assign a value to a property you have to use the right object that property belongs to.
Some values are only functional, if some other property is set (this goes especially for the bleed settings).
Do not write:
bleedTop='0mm';
ExtendScript cannot know by itself where this property and its value should be assigned to what object.
Right syntax would be:
myPDFExportPreset.bleedTop='0mm';
Or (I used no meassurement units, the value 0 does not require this):
myPDFExportPreset.properties = {
useDocumentBleedWithPDF : true,
bleedTop : 0 ,
bleedBottom : 0 ,
bleedInside : 0 ,
bleedOutside : 0
Hi Uwe,
Thanks for your remark... that was my mistake when using copy paste.
I was reusing code from another script where I used the WITH function, in here I was using a different structure and I didn't correct this.
But thanks again for the remark!

Presets Missing in Lightroom 4 on my Mac

Hi!
When I am in the develop mode on my Mac in Lightroom 4, the presets are missing. I am new to LR4, and also to my Mac, however, I am very familiar with LR as I was using LR3 on a PC prior to this purchase. How do I get them to show up? It appears that they are there, but, I cannot open them or expand them.
Any ideas?
Thanks!!

Hi Victoria,
I tried to reply to you, but, it looks like it didn't go through. Anyway, I think I have figured my issue out. My issue was this, when I was in the Develop module and wanted to use the Lightroom default presets, such as Lightroom B&W presets, I could see the group headings and an arrow, but, could not expand it to see the actual presets.
So, I went under the Lightroom dropdown and into Preferences and then into the Presets folder and clicked on the button that says Reset all default develop settings.
I am not 100% sure that this is what worked, but, they are now there and available.
Thanks for your question. I am relieved that they are now there.

Restore default presets in local adjustments

I think that there is a problem when restoring default presets in local adjustments. I can not restore them, both from the preferences window and from the menu in local adjustments.
By the way, I'm storing my presets with the catalog.

how to restore these presets.
By reinstalling any Adobe app that makes use of the shared PDF components. The presets themselves are stored in the pertinent program folder and also in your user data folder. In fact if you simply create a new user account they may magically show up because they were re-created/ copied with factory defaults... On the other hand that may also point to possible permissions issues with your own user account - the files may be there, but inaccessible due to insufficient privileges. Other than that really simply reinstall.

A pdf document created in cs5 cannot be printed in duplex on a pc without cs5 or adobe reader pro

Hi!
there is a "normal" cs5 created pdf document.
the installed cs5 pc -> i can print in duplex on every printer, without cs5 installed duplex printing not possible.
I am searching for a solution to print the pdf document in duplex mode on every printer, but only with the latest freeware version adobe xi 11.0.3.
(If i install adobe cs4 on a pc it is possible to print the document in duplex mode on a hp3525 printer, but duplex is not possible on a ricoh printer for example mpc5502.)
I cant upload the file, because its bigger than 2 mb. (5mb)
Is there anybody out there for help.
If you need the file, i´ll send 2 u.
thx

Yep, it definitely is a complicated workflow... But I'm not really sure of any other way to get from the 34" wide pattern to the home-sewing version which is split into pages and has alignment marks and whatnot. I'm very much an amateur that has figured it out as I went
I went through the page in the photo pretty thoroughly with the layer panel and I couldn't find any mystery lines... But I did find something interesting; when I click on any of the pattern lines, it shows the whole line of the pattern piece, which extends well past the edge of the artboard. So when I'm printing the poster-sized PDF to 7.5x10 pages, it's keeping all the anchor points of a line even if only a small piece of that is on the actual page.
Does this help? I've included the page in the photo as well http://www.putlocker.com/file/DADB4759DBB860D8
Thanks again to everyone!
Also, should I be keeping all the files I'm editing as .ai files and then only exporting to PDF for the very final product? I was doing that at first, but then using .pdf for the whole process didn't seem to make any difference.

Default CC or CS5.5?

Hi,
We have a customer that is trialing Adobe CCFT, on the same device they have CS5.5. If they're sent, say, a Photoshop CS file and double click to open, what will be the default software to open it, CS5.5 or CC?
Customer wants the default to be CS5.5 in the short term whilst they go through the migration.
Many thanks!

No. You can only buy current versions. If your machine allows, it would be easier to just upgrade OSX, otehrwise you'll have to find a legit used copy of these older versions, which might prove quite difficult...
