PDF differences (Microsoft and Adobe)
Hi,
Can anyone tell me what the differences are between PDFs generated by the normal Microsoft Office, File --> Save As --> PDF option and those generated by Acrobat (e.g. from the Office Acrobat menu, or by dragging the Office document onto Acrobat)?

Hi,
We had done some analysis and following are the specific areas where Acrobat PDFMaker outdoes MS “Save as PDF” functionality –
Word
Comments are retained as annotations in PDF, which can be exported back to the original Word document later.
Word Headings, Styles and Bookmarks can be retained in PDF using PDFMaker. MS “Save as PDF” provides the option to retain either Word Headings or Word Bookmarks, only one option at a time.
Retains intra/inter-document links, cross-references, endnotes and footnotes as links.
Creates rich accessible PDF(s).
Retains embedded Flash as RichMedia in PDF.
Mail Merge: Merge mail templates to Adobe PDF and optionally, mail them to recipients.
Import Comments: Import comments from the corresponding PDF back to the original Word document.
Convert signature fields specified by PDFMarks.
[Common to Word, Excel, PowerPoint]
Provides a list of Conversion Settings including –
PDF/A, PDF/X standards to choose from.
Various Joboptions to modulate the quality of output PDF.
Advanced Settings option to create customized Joboptions to control PDF compatibility, image compression algorithms, etc.
Option to secure output PDF with open password and/or password for editing PDF. Compression algorithms used depends upon the compatibility level set in the JobOption used:
Acrobat 4 – 40-bit RC4
Acrobat 5/6 – 128-bit RC4
Acrobat 7/8 – 128-bit AES
Option to attach source Office document.
Retains document information, including custom information.
Options to – a) Create and attach to Email, b) Create and Share for Review c) Create PDF and Run action

Microsoft and Adobe issues on iMac
My iMac is approximately 4 years old. I do a lot of work with PDFs, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. However, compared with a PC, working on my iMac has been a special form of ****. Work that would take me 4 hours now takes me 8 hours due to complications.
For example:
Microsoft Word:
Takes forever to open
When I have to track a decent number of changes, the document freaks out. As in, the review pane opens with no prompting. When I try to hide it, it opens up again. Or if I'm working in one section, somehow I end up in a totally different section of the document for no reason.
PowerPoint:
Crashes
Lots of lagging
When I create a chart, the Excel file opens to maximum view. How the **** am I supposed to input data if I can't see my other files with the numbers? Duh. And don't forget HUGE lag issues with inputting data into the Excel file in PowerPoint. Like, inputting numbers into 5 rows and 5 columns takes about 10 minutes on bad days. If you type more than 30 words per minute (130 for me), it misses most of the keystrokes so everything you enter is wrong
I just copied and pasted a bar chart from one slide to another and got a message that it was created in a different version and needed to be converted. Um, I've been working in the same PowerPoint file ALL DAY and created the original bar chart 10 slides earlier
Adobe Acrobat
Granted, I use creative cloud but this program crashes up to 20-30 times in a 2 hour period. I work with a TON of PDFs and lose a lot of work because of this issue. I get an error message (which is amazingly long and I don't understand it). It also doesn't matter which PDF I open. It could be one I use a lot or it could be brand new ones. I could have Acrobat open for an hour and suddenly it'll crash. Or I could have Acrobat open for 1 minute and it'll crash. There's no rhyme or reason.BGreg, thank you for your quick response.
After having my iMac unplugged for a couple hours until the case was completely cold to the touch, it booted normally. I downloaded Smart Utility, and upon opening the application, it told me that my hard drive was failing. I did the long test to get a better idea of the situation, and it changed my status to "passed." My iMac then promptly froze up again, beachball and all. -.-
It seems that if my computer has been running for long enough to get warm, it stops wanting to function. I'm pretty sure when I restart it (most likely forcibly, as it's been frozen for over 10 minutes now) I will have all the boot issues once again.
I tried again with the hardware test when I started the iMac up in order to run Smart Utility, and holding down D still does nothing (install disc 1 is still in the drive).
Is there any way to know 100% that it's definitely the hard drive and *only* the hard drive? I would hate to buy a new one and go through the stress of taking my iMac apart for the first time only to find out after that there's another piece of hardware needing attention. I obviously can't use the built in hardware test anymore. With my budget the way it is, I'll probably have to repair it myself, so any pointers on diagnosing the issue before I start amateur surgery will be very appreciated. I was hoping to build a pc from the ground up before I ever needed to learn how to replace parts on my beloved iMac, but it looks like the iMac will be my first patient afterall. -

Missing add-on Convert to pdf in IE10 and Adobe Acrobat XI
Hello,
I have Windows 8 with Adobe Acrobat XI Pro installed but I cannot find the internet explorer 10 "adds-on" (nor the icon on the IE bar) for the "Convert to pdf file" anymore.
I think the problem originated when I installed Creative Suite CS3 and it had Acrobat 8 in it. I installed it too fast and didn't realize it was included. It overtook some of the features of XI Pro, so I uninstalled Acrobat 8 and installed Adobe Acrobat XI Pro again to see if the problem could get solved.
Worse. With both Acrobat 8 and XI installed I still saw the adds-on but they were "unavailable", or enabled but couldn't find the icon to use the function. Now I can't even find the Adds-on in the tools menu of IE to see if they could be enabled. They are simply not there anymore.This is the main feature that I use for my work and I would be grateful if someone would give me a hint or where to download the missing element.
Thank you very much.
Carmen

Some one asked the question "When did Apple become Microsoft or Adobe?
I think when Microsoft and Adobe were young they were very aware of what customers needed. As they matured as companies their goals and philosophies changed the more money they made. Money became the goal and the philosophy is how to maximize the money. Adobe, Microsoft, and now Apple are all at the same developmental stage. The kinds of behaviors you have seen from the other large companies can be expected from Apple. I have been with Apple since the early 80's and own 5 machines including A 12 core Mac Pro and a MacBook Pro so I am Apple to the core.
My question: Has Apple turned the corner on a customer focus? Is Final Cut X the first of many decisions Apple will make that negatively effect their customers? This is the path Adobe and Microsoft took when they thought they were too large to be affected by negative consumer input.
Apple bigger things to come:Thing is, this isn't the first. It's being going on for ages.
But remember, when Apple first started, they were all about making computers "for the people". Mac Plus for example... and all those old commercials from the Performa era slating the "business world" of PCs.
They have always followed the populist approach, developing products for the every day person... just now on a much bigger scale with the ipod and iphone generation.
The whole things about Apple being top dog for the media industries started ages ago too with the Design and Print industry, but I reckon with Final Cut and Shake, the video industry was one of their biggest successors in that area - but it came later, and now it is going earlier I think.
When they got rid of Shake, that said it all really... it was only a matter of time.
It seems like they are turning their back on the pro video industry - and there is probably a very valid financial reason for this... it's one of those things they do.
But ****, is it ******* **** that they are!! ;-)
I haven't written this post very well, apologies. To much time on here has and a bottle of wine has made my brain go numb (and yes, I have been editing this week on FCP7 at the same time :-D ) -
Does anyone have experience of the EU PRIAMOS file download system? I am experiencing difficulties in downloading files in Adobe Reader format ( I have set the default PDF reader to Adobe Reader).
The PRIAMOS system can only communicate with Windows 32bit - Mozilla Firefox 2 and higher or......
IE 6 or 7
IE 7 or 8 (in compatibility mode)
Supported PDF programmes are:
Adobe Reader 8.1 or higher
My Adobe Reader software is the latest version (Adobe Reader XI for Mac with latest update as at 10 Sept 2013)
The PRIAMOS system does not officially support Mac computers, but PRIAMOS has been used successfully with OS X version 10.5.8 (Leopard) and Mozilla Firefox (2.5) (with built in PDF reader disabled and Adobe Reader enabled) and Adobe Reader 8.1
Any help would be gratefully appreciatedOops, I hit return before I was finished!
In short, does anyone have any ideas apart from those I've tried. One solution seems to be to go back to 10.6.4 - one of the other discussions seem to indicate that the probelm comes in with 10.6.8.
Thanks! -
I am running OS X 10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02. In the last few days I have been unable to open PDF's downloaded from the web. Reader gives the error message 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired'. Removing Reader and trying to use Preview to open these files give the error 'Preview cannot open this file. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise' (or something like that). Downloading the same files with Reader removed from my Mac Preview opens the files OK.
I was recently prompted to update Adobe software but did not note exactly what the update was nor when it was done.
Reader and Preview will both open PDFs I downloaded a week ago. Reader will also open files downloaded on another Mac running OS X 10.0.0 and copied to my Mac. Any ideas?Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again. -
Differences between the "Adobe Acrobat Versions 7 and 9"
Dear Adobe Support Team,
I need to know the differences between the "Adobe Acrobat Versions 7 and 9". I have worked with Acrobat 7 and have used the same script after installing Acrobat 9 for Automation Testing with QTP for validating pdf. The object "AcroExch.AVDoc" is not getting identified as object while working in QTP in the system/machine which has Acrobat 9 installed, whereas it works well in the machine which has Acrobat 7 installed . So it will be better if two things are known as per my understanding, ie.,
it must have compatibility issue (i need the difference between "Adobe Acrobat versions 7 & 9" to assure this) or
installation issue( which can be confirmed if the former question is answered).
So i kindly request you to help me out for this scenario.
Kind Regards,
Vikraman.GCountless new features were introduced between Acrobat 7 and 9, are you really expecting us to type out a full list from memory?
If you are having specific issues with the Acrobat SDK, first refer to the Acrobat SDK for the higher version. If there remains an issue I suggest posting about the specific problem in the Acrobat SDK forum, rather than asking for an encylopedia of all possible information...
Note that Adobe do not support multiple installations of Acrobat on the same machine, so you can expect development issues if you do this. -

Selecting the formatting option.
Once selected the formatting I am getting the formatting level difference between the PDF's. One is created with MS word SAVE AS PDF utility. The other PDF created with ADOBE PDFMAKER.
