PDF displays improperly. However prints semi-fine.
This first image was taken after opening the PDF and scrolling through with version 7 of acrobat. Upon first opening the document the address appears fine, but after you PageDown through a couple pages it turns into this:
It prints most of the document just fine. Unfortunately some of them come out looking like this:
The PDFs are being generated from Objectif Lune's Watch server and created from thier Create PDF plugin. This PDF is then printed through a Fiery on a Ricoh Pro 1106ex.
Any tips would be most helpful.
Without knowing your OS and the specific version of Reader it would be hard to say, but it looks as if you are using a version of Reader that is not compatible with your OS. That may or may not fix the problem.

Does Safari support interactive PDFs with layers? Through the use of hidden layers and buttons we built in interactivity that allows the viewers to click on buttons to display different content. When I view the PDF in Safari 5.0.3 on my Mac OS 10.5.8 the PDF displays fine and the interactivity works. However our web design firm tell me the PDF displays all the hidden layers when they view it in Safari. Who's right?
Try updating your Safari to the latest version, 5.0.5.
Also check whether the rest of your system is up to date by going to Software Update in the Apple menu. -

You can also try opening the PDF with preview, then doing a copy and paste to TextEdit and printing from there.
Adobe makes it easier, but you do have software to accomplish this.
Only download Adobe reader from this site, to avoid "fakes/spoofs/malware" that will cause damage to your machine.

Adobe releases free security updates quarterly. It is important to update your version of Reader or Acrobat to the latest release. The updates often include fixes to common problems. Download the latest free update:
Note: Microsoft Windows 7 requires Adobe Reader 9.2 or later.
1. Open Reader or Acrobat.
2. Choose Help > Check for Updates. If a new update is available, it installs automatically.
3. Once installed, restart your computer.
To the top<http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/cant-view-pdf-web.html>
Refresh or reload the page (done, no effect)
Often, just refreshing the page allows the PDF to load fully.
Hold down the Shift key and press the Refresh or Reload button in the browser.
Try to view a different PDF (done, no effect)
Try viewing a different PDF. For example, see if this sample form<http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Samples/flatform.pdf> displays in your browser.(DOES NOT OPEN) If Acrobat or Reader can open the sample form, then the other PDF could be damaged or the web server could be having problems. If possible, contact the individual or company who manages the website.
1. Try to view a PDF on your hard drive . (ALL PDFS OPEN ON HARD DRIVE)

Problem with the browser or its settings?
Use a different web browser (Pdf'S open in alternate browsers)
Certain conditions on your computer, such as security settings or browser cookies, can prevent you from viewing a PDF. Often, the fastest solution is to try to open the page using a different browser. Try any of the following browsers that you have not already tried:
Mozilla Firefox<http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/>
Microsoft Internet Explorer<http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/default.aspx>
Apple Safari<http://www.apple.com/safari/download>
For a list of compatible browsers for Reader and Acrobat X, see this list of Compatible web browsers<http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/compatible-web-browsers-pdfmaker-applications.html>.
Switch to Compatibility View (Internet Explorer) (done, no effect)
Some websites display better in the Compatibility View of Internet Explorer. The Compatibility View displays a page as if it was an earlier version of the browser. For instructions on how to switch to this view, see one of these documents on the Microsoft website:

Restart your computer and try opening the PDF again (done, no effect)
Restart your computer, then open the web page again. Restarting clears the computer memory and memory cache. It is surprising how often simply restarting your computer resolves a display issue.
Delete temporary Internet files (Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome) (done, no effect)
Clear the browser cache (sometimes called 'temporary Internet files') to ensure that you are viewing a fresh version of the page. When you open a web page, the browser saves a temporary copy so that it opens more quickly next time. You want to force the browser to load the entire page directly from the server, rather than displaying a stored copy.
Reset the Display PDF In Browser preference (done, no effect)
1. In Reader or Acrobat, right-click the document window, and select Page Display Preferences.
2. From the list at left, select Internet.
3. Deselect Display PDF In Browser, and then click OK.
4. Choose Edit > Preferences > Internet, select Display PDF In Browser, and then click OK.
5. Try to open the PDF again from the website.
View PDF in 32-bit version of Internet Explorer or Safari (done, no effect)
Acrobat and Reader are 32-bit applications on Windows. If you try to open a PDF in a 64-bit version of Internet Explorer, the PDF opens in stand-alone Acrobat or Reader, not in Internet Explorer.
Remove DreamFactory (Firefox only) (done, no effect)
If you receive the error "Cannot use Adobe Reader to view PDFs in your web browser," do the following:
1. Choose Start > Run, type appwiz.cpl in the Open text box, and then click OK to open the Add Or Remove Programs dialog box.

Printing to pdf gives improper formatting (page is cut off on one side)
Safari 7.0.5 on Mavericks 10.9.4: printing to pdf gives improper formatting (page is cut off on one side). Any suggestions?
I am trying to print from Safari. The problem happens without respect to the zoom level, as I have tried many times with several different web pages, from fully zoomed in to fully zoomed out. It also happens without respect to whether I use the print option (and then specify to print to pdf) or use File>Export to pdf...
Irritating, as the "save as... "option is not foolproof either.
Any thoughts? -

Orarrp can't print pdf file directly to printer
oracle remote print utility (orarrp) can't print pdf file directly to printer.
we expect orarrp utility can handle ".rrpa" file (i.e. pdf file generated on the application server) by directly print the file to the client's printer, i.e. invoke the acrobat reader on the client side, display the the printer selection dialogue, after confirmation print the pdf file, then the acrobat reader close automatically nicely.
However we are disappointed as the acrobat reader startup and display the pdf file content but does not print and does not close.
After testing the problem several times, there are some findings:-
Finding (A):-
(a) for the success of direct printing of pdf file, a physical path must be provided; we have tried 2 methods:
1) using drag & drop to copy the pdf file directly to the browser
2) open pdf file in the browser directly using browser menu-->File-->Open.
(b) for the failure of direct printing, a virtual path is involved and we have also tried 2 methods:
1) when web.show_document() is used
2) enter the url to the URL bar of the browser,
eg. http://appsvr.com:7777/report/test_printout/APPSVR1094707.rrpa (this is a virtual path/url)
Finding (B):-
(a)when the physical path is used, a temporary pdf file is generated in the same directory where the rrpa file exists in the application server,
e.g. in application server: d:/printout/yyy.pdf is generated for d:/printout/xxx.rrpa when direct print occurs
(b) however when the virtual path is used, there is no such temp "pdf" file generated and direct print failed.
May be when virtual path is used, orarrp utility don't know where to generate the temp "pdf" so direct print doesn't occur.
So, anyone has similar experience or further queries or has solutions, please join.
Thanks for your attention.Hi,
It is really late to give response this post. But still who ever refering to this post for the same issue this solution is useful for achieving same in background:
Even same can be used in smartforms, for getting spool request in PDF format as well which will decrease the size of file when printing in SAP printer.
ct_tline is PDF output:
DATA: lv_pdfsource TYPE xstring.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:<p> TYPE x. " <p> type any.
LOOP AT ct_tline INTO cs_tline.
ASSIGN cs_tline TO <p> CASTING TYPE x.
CONCATENATE lv_pdfsource <p> INTO lv_pdfsource IN BYTE MODE.
ENDLOOP.
* ->Create spool request in PDF format
CALL FUNCTION 'ADS_CREATE_PDF_SPOOLJOB'

Damaged .pdf file when exporting / printing
Post Author: darrens
CA Forum: Exporting
Hi,
I scoured Google, these forums, and Crystal support but haven't found a solution to my issue.
I have a Crystal report (version XIR2) served from an Enterprise server. I also have a ASP.NET C# application that calls and runs this report in a DHTML CrystalReportViewer. The actual report runs just fine.
Clicking the print button in the report viewer's top toolbar causes the viewer to attempt to export the report to a .pdf, from where you can actually print it. This is where my problem lies! When Adobe Reader opens and attempts to open the temporary .pdf file generated from the viewer, I get the message "Adobe Reader could not open 'filename.tmp' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)." This also happens when trying to export the report directly into PDF format. Everyone who would run this report, including me, is using Adobe Reader 8.1.
Exporting to other file formats seems to work just fine. Excel and Word have no problems.
Also, interestingly enough, exporting to PDF and trying to print in Internet Explorer 7 works just fine! These problems seem to only occur in IE6. Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to use IE7 yet, so we are stuck with IE6. Additionally, we are stuck using the DHTML viewer, so other viewers, like the ActiveX or Java viewers, are not options for me.
I had found some articles in Business Object support saying this problem was related to WebSphere, and there were various solutions I found related to that. However, WebSphere isn't used anywhere in our organization, so this problem must be stemming from elsewhere.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance for taking the time to read / reply to this thread. If anyone needs more information, feel free to ask!
Thanks,DarrenPost Author: fyz

I think your pdf file is probably damaged. There is a tool called Advanced PDF Repair. I have used it to repair many corrupt PDF files successfully. Its homepage is http://www.datanumen.com/apdfr/ Maybe you can have a try.

PDFs display differently in Internet Explorer 9 versus FireFox
We use Adobe Reader X in all cases (10.4.1)
On old computer, we have a website we go to using Internet Explorer (version 8.x on XP) where we ope/save & print to a PDF file. The information on the PDF prints vaules in a certain order - for example: A,B, C --works great--this is what we want it to do.
We buy a new computer, Windows 7 with IE9, and the PDF displays with the same values in this order: C,B, A - not good, do not want that.
We try FireFox on the new computer -- works great --just like it did on the old computer.
What setting in IE9 is causing this PDF to display differently than in FireFox (or IE8)?
UPDATE: We did load IE8 on Windows 7 (by uninstalling IE9) and the PDF works fine --so it's not just something unique to FireFox. IE9 is displaying information in this PDF differently--why?Add/update these params in your web.xml and redeploy so the style class names are not optimized and client debugging is easier.

How to correct bad PDF display of Excel 2007 graph-Adobe Pro X?
Just installed Adobe Acrobat Pro X; previously had Adobe Pro 8, which worked fine. Have Excel 2007 files with an Excel graph and a JPG image on the spreadsheet tab. Both the graph and the JPG are too big, are displaced, and hide spreadsheet data, when the Excel file is Saved As a PDF using Adobe Pro dialog or Excel dialog, or the Excel Plug-In to Create PDF. For some strange reason, printing to PDF works, although that is limiting. All of the settings are the same for the Adobe Printer as Adobe Pro settings. Changing them or going to default did not help. Just did the latest update; that did not help.
The graph and JPG are too large for the PDF page. Paper printing from Excel still works fine. Producing a PDF on another machine with Pro 8 still works fine. Could not find this problem discussed anywhere. Using XP, fully patched. This should not be a complicated process, nor a complex spreadsheet. What is going on?
ThanksRegardless of the method and Adobe product used to create the PDF, including the Excel tool button, the single common factor whether the PDF correctly displays a JPG or graph in the Excel file that is being done at anything other than 100% size is whether the Adobe Printer or a Physical Printer is selected as the default printer in the Windows Printers and Faxes-Settings. This is true even though the printer is not being used. I have created the same PDF using every method/product and the results are always the same, and only properly display when either the setting is 100% size or the system printer is selected as Adobe Printer. This is true only after installing Adobe X (8 was previously installed, and worked as expected).

You say the settings for the printer work fine, but do not for PDF Maker (I am assuming this is what you meant). PDF Maker no longer uses the printer and the settings are independent. Check the settings for PDF Maker under the create PDF menu.

How can I reduce a fotobook pdf size for online printing
Hello aperture,
I have been creating a large customer book (33 x 28 cm) with aperture.
I'm working with RAW datas and the fotobook has got around 150 pages.
My online printing office accepts only PDF X3 2002 datas and I can get this with adobe acrobat X Pro.
I print the book in aperture an save it as an Adobe PDF and than, I can save the datas as a PDF X3:2002. It works perfectly.
My problem is that the online printing office accepts only 2 GB and my pdf, which I've printed with aperture, has got around 7 GB.
What can I do in aperture to reduce the pdf size and get a smaller one?
My aperture settings for Export is: 300 dpi.
Thanks for you help,
Best
AndreaActually in LR4 and Camera Raw 7 in Photoshop CS, you CAN create a downsampled DNG by using the Lossy Compression method of converting to DNG. In the LR 4 Export, select DNG then you have the ability to specify long dimensions or the size in Megapixels. Note, a Lossy DNG isn't un-demosiaced, it's been demosiaced but is still stored in Linear Gamma, so it's like a partially baked file, not a true unbaked raw file.
Note, in Camera Raw 7 when you set up your save dlog, it's a bit different. You select Lossy DNG and then have a dropdown for size presets...
Couple of things about the Lossy DNG, you SHOULD name it to distinguish between the downsampled DNG and your original DNG...you don't want to get into the situation where you overwrite your original. Also note that some things won't work totally as expected. For example, sharpening and noise reduction will be working but on a downsampled file. While the numbers will correlate, the actual effects will be a bit different because it's a downsampled file and more prone to potentially over sharpening. It all works, and the controls will work fine if you work at 100% zoom, but don't expect the high resolution your original file had. -
I have a user who cannot print PDF's to a HP 4520 color laserjet printer. The user can print anything else (docs, spreatsheets, text files, pictures, etc) to the printer, but not PDF's. The user has XP with all the latest upgrades and Acrobat Pro V8. Anyone else can print PDF's to the printer. The user can also print to another printer, just not this one. Acrobat has been uninstalled, the registry cleaned and reinstalled with the latest updates as has the printer. Logging onto the PC as administrator instead of the user has the same results. The print spooler is running. It appears as if Acrobat is not sending the PDF to the print spooler. It makes no difference if the PDF is self created or one generated by someone else, they just won't print. I have been through the trouble shooting sheet presented by Adobe, but no help. The "chat" also has been no help, and was thoroughly discusted with one of the agents when asking for assitance and was just dropped when he asked if there was anything else he could help with and I told him he had not given me any information that would help. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Maybe the file name assigned to a pdf is not compatible with your printer's memory. Example, if the file name includes brackets [ ] { } or other punctuation, or is very long, the printer won't recognize it. One print job that stalls will hold up the entire print queue, so delete your job from the queue.
First, look at the file name displayed in the print server's list of print jobs. The same file name also appears in the top blue bar of your Acrobat pdf display. Are there brackets, per cent signs, or other punctuation marks in the file name?
This file name works:
ti50000
These would not work:
ti50000[1] because of the brackets
sarif00099659%47%000%%000%0000 because of the length and the percent signs
You can rename the file by saving the pdf to your desktop. Click on the Acrobat toolbar icon for Save (a picture of a floppy ) and rename the file. You can use any name - the author's last name, for example - as long as you don't include punctuation or too many characters. Now send this file to the printer.
