.pdf does not render correctly

Hello everyone:
When creating a .pdf from a .html dreamweaver file it does not render properly. Headings go to the left and sidebar images do not display properly. Any ideas as to how to fix this. Using Adode Acrobat 8 Professional and Adobe Dreamweaver CS3. Many Thanks

Take a screenshot of the page then convert that to a PDF.
The PrtScr key on the keyboard only captures what you can see on screen (or the active window).
To get the entire page, either use something like SnagIt (commercial) or use one of the free add-ons for Firefox.
Edit: or as Paula suggests, create a print stylesheet.

  • PDF does not display correctly

    Issue: One of our website page displays a PDF form filled with data retrieved from database. The PDF file displays perfect in IE browser, but the PDF form was blank in Firefox browser - can not see the filled data at all in Firefox browser nor in print-out from Firefox.
    I installed the most recent version of Firefox PDF viewer 0.8.1 add-on, and played with different options under the menu "options/Portable Document Format (PDF), but no luck to solve the above issue.
    I noticed that not only our website, but also some government websites have the same issue display data filled PDF.
    Anybody can help me out to resolve this issue?
    Many thanks!

    This may well be a limitation of the JavaScript-based PDF Viewer. It currently does not support all the feature of the Adobe plugin (or stand-alone version of Adobe Reader). You can test that theory using the steps in this article: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]].
    While an end user can switch around among viewers by changing their Firefox options, unfortunately there currently is no way for websites to detect which viewer is in use and assist visitors in a personalized manner. I think for now you may need to recommend that Firefox users use the above article for assistance if more complex PDFs do not render as expected.

  • Crystal Reports 2008 export to PDF does not render Japanese fonts

    Hello,
    I have searched the forums for this issue, and there does not seem to be a clear resolution to this problem.  We are using CR2008 to create RPT files that are bundled with our custom .NET 2005 application, which then generates reports in PDF format by running the RPT files against an access mdb database using the CR2008 runtime (our application is deployed on a different machine than the one that is used to create the RPT files).  The issue we are having occurs when data in the access mdb file contains Strings with Japanese characters.  The system that our application is running on does contain the eastern asian language fonts so if a user opens the mdb file using access, they can see the Unicode strings in the database rendered properly (rather than the usual boxes and garbage).  However, once our application generates the report filling in the rpt file with data from the mdb and exporting the report to pdf format, the entries that should contain Japanese font data, which leads me to believe the problem is in the export pdf function of the crystal reports 2008 runtime.  Is there anyway we can configure the runtime to properly embed the fonts in the PDF so that the users can view the Japanese content from the database.  Our users end up viewing reports on both OSX and Windows using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
    Thank you very much in advance

    Thanks for the quick reply!
    1) Exact version of Crystal Reports. (Open Crystal Developer. Go to Help> About Crystal Reports).
    12.0.0.683
    Type: Full
    2) What happens if you export the report to PDF format from the standalone Crystal Reports Designer?
    Same result.  The entry shows up as giberish in the report designer preview...however, by doing this I stumbled upon something.  See below
    3) Are you able to export the report to other formats without any issue?
    See Note below
    NOTE:
    In another part of the report, I just put the fields in question directly in the report (that is, not embedded in a text object).  That part of the report when run produces the correct non-gibberish, properly rendered Japanese result (in the CR designer preview).  The same field, however, when embedded in a text object, results in the gibberish being shown in the designer preview as well.
    Now when I export this to PDF, that ends up turning both areas into the incorrect, gibberish result.  Both the one that did properly render in the preview (field not embedded in text object) and the one in the text object.
    Exporting to any other format (tried xls, rtf and html) results in correct rendering for the field not embedded in the text object and incorrect rendering for the field embedded in a text object.
    Hope this helps with the problem, and I think it means this thread probably still belongs under this current forum.
    Cheers

  • Album view does not render correctly after synced changes

    I was correcting the album rendering of some soundtrack albums today and noticed that albums do not group correctly across computers when the metadata is synced using Match.  I am hoping someone can confirm they get the same results and possibly offer a fix.
    Problem
    Forcing a compilation album to render as a single album instead of multiple albums by setting the "Album Artist" and "Part of Compilation" fields does not sync across computers despite the fact that all of the relevant metadata syncs correctly.
    Setup
    Laptop and Desktop sitting next to each other.  Both running Windows 8.1 and iTunes 11.1.3.8 logged into the same iTunes account for all services.  (I am curious about running the experiment on all Macs or cross-platform, but all I have are PCs.)
    Experiment
    Step 1- Pick an album with various artists such as a soundtrack and confirm that it renders as one complete album in "Album" view in iTunes on both computers.
    Step 2- Using the desktop, select all songs on the album and change the "Album Artist" field to be blank on all of them by selecting that field and removing the text in that field.  Also set "Part of Compilation" on the "Options" tab to "No".  Click OK and the album should be rendered as multiple albums for each track on the soundtrack.  It is easiest to see this by staying in "Album" view and searching for the album name in the search tool in the upper right corner of iTunes.
    Step 3- Go to the laptop and search for the album name in the "Album" view.  It will still be rendered as 1 album instead of multiple albums for each track as it is on the desktop.  Click on any song on the album and confirm that the "Album Artist" field is blank and "Part of Compilation" is clear (the metadata should sync within a few seconds).  With these settings, the album should render as multiple tracks- not a single album.  Closing and re-opening iTunes, updating Match or updating Genius does not re-render the album view as separate albums.
    Step 4- Using the laptop, set the "Album Artist" field back to "Various Artists".  The desktop will get that update, but not re-render the album as single album.  The only way to "fix" the desktop is to reset the "Album Artist" field to "Various Artists" from the desktop.
    My Conclusion
    iTunes renders album views only when a change is made that would result in a change to the view and that rendering is only stored locally.  iTunes does not correctly update album rendering when new meta-data that should cause a change in the view is received via Match.  This is a problem because you cannot fix an album rendering on one computer and have that correction sync to your other computers.  You have to "fix" the view on each computer individually.
    Possible Workaround
    Turn off iTunes Match and remove the iTunes database and all music on all computers but one.  Using the one computer, make all required fixes and then recreate the iTunes database using Match on each of the other computers.
    Any help or comments is much appreciated.

    I have the same problem with PDFs created in Illustrator CS3. The bitmaps inside the PDF get rendered wrongly -- inverted or decolored.
    One fix is to use ZIP instead of JPEG for the compression method when saving the file as an Adobe PDF.
    I think it is a bug in Preview 5 (already filed it with Apple). With Preview 4.2 (Leopard) or using Acrobat 8.1.3, the PDF renders fine.

  • Cfdocument format = PDF - does not format correctly

    Greetings
    I am simply attempting to print invoices from a query that displays correctly on the cfm result page, but using cfdocument to render a PDF version (to mail out) does not format even remotely close to the cfm page.
    I tried every conceivable method I know of, including:
    Formating the cfm page (via CSS and hardcoded table width) to be 612 px X 792 px (8.5 X 11 in), and here is the cfdocument code:
    <cfdocument
    format="pdf" 
    pageType="custom"
    unit="in"
    marginbottom="0.75"
    marginleft="0.75"
    marginright="0.75"
    margintop="0.75"
    pageHeight="11"
    pageWidth="8.5"
    mimeType="text/html"
    fontembed="yes"
    orientation="portrait">
    <style type="text/css">
    @import url(css/moorings.css);
    </style>
    <html> blah blah </html>
    </cfdocument>
    The rendered PDF file is 4.5 X 5 in- (both in IE and Firefox) What am I missing here?
    CF 9
    Thanks in advance, as always.

    Well, in answer to my own question, the solution is in the CSS, using tables and CSS:
    set table height and width to 100%
    set font-size:100%;
    set header font, bolder, larger :125%;, etc.
    Also using the cfdocument attributes as shown in the posting
    The PDF now prints correctly, margins are perfect.
    Now I have to figure out how to loop through the 900+ records, convert each to a PDF and print one copy of each-
    Anyone?
    Thanks....

  • Converting .docx with chart to .pdf does not work correctly

    I have a docx file with an excel chart and a hyperlink in it. The chart is a line chart with data makers on the lines. One set of data markers are circles. The chart is simply copied from excel and pasted into word. I am using word and excel 2007 and adobe acrobat 8 standard on windows XP SP2. all software is fully updated.
    When I convert this doxc file to pdf, the circle data markers from the chart are greatly enlarged and obscure the text and chart. The hyperlink works fine. This occurs when I use the acrobat plug-in within word to create a "quick and simple" pdf. this also occurs when I open adobe and choose create pdf from file. I cannot use the word plug-in to create a "fully functional" pdf. This feature simply does not work.
    When I convert the file to a pdf using the adobe printer/distiller, the circle data markers on the chart are fine, but the hyperlink no longer functions.
    I can copy the chart from excel and paste it into powerpoint and publisher and the conversion to pdf works fine. i can also create a pdf of the chart from excel to pdf without problems, so it appears to be a word to pdf issue.

    Thanks Bill
    Perhaps I was not clear enough though. I am not really concerned with the hyperlinks.
    The main problem is the excel chart. When I use PDF Maker the circle data markers from the chart are greatly enlarged and obscure the text and chart. The only way to make the chart look normal is to use the distiller, which kills the hyperlinks. I would rather use PDF Maker, keep the functionality of the hyperlinks, and have the excel chart look normal. The PDF Maker distorts the circle data markers on the chart and makes the page unreadable. That is what I need to fix.
    I realize the simple solution is to use something other that circles for data makers, but I have a lot of charts and don't want to spend the time remaking them all.

  • EPS files does not render correctly in CS4 & CS5, but looks fine in CS2

    Hello,
    I am experiencing rendering issues with EPS files under CS4 and CS5. I don't believe there is anything wrong with the EPS file, as the file will render correctly under CS2.
    The EPS is a map of Australia, and it's the hill shading that fails to render correctly:
    CS2 (rendes correctly):
    CS4 (hill shading corruption):
    CS5 (hill shading corruption):
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    -nav.

    Is it possible that you see the native AI data in CS2 because it has been embedded in the EPS? To me it very much looks this way, since the actual EPSdata never even has complete outlines in your other images. This is a strong indication that the paths were never properly segmented for EPS export to begin with...

  • My iGoogle page does not render correctly - only header & footer are shown.

    Running on Windows 7 (64 bit)
    I was using Firefox version 3 (whatever the latest was yesterday)
    When I go to www.google.co.uk/ig I see only the header and footer of the page and no widget area in between.
    Page works fine in IE so it's not a Google thing.
    This happened following the installation of the Adobe Download manager.
    So far I have tried:
    # Disabled the Adobe DLM addin
    # Disabled all addins
    # Wiped the cache & cookies
    # Created a new profile
    # Deleted the profile folder
    # Installed FF4.0
    Still can't see my iGoogle page.

    It is a really perpleximg problem that occurs only when the volume of data is large. Why would you be sending large amounts of data to a JSP? Sounds fishy to me.
    None of the people in my team were able to solve this issue.Well if you provided your team with the same amount (none) of information you provided here, then I would understand.
    Please send in your suggestions as to why this is happening or if there are any known bugs in IE.Personally, I think it's the flux capacitor.

  • PDF does not convert correctly to Word

    When I convert a PDF file to Word (either doc or 97-2003), I have to make major changes to the font, formatting, etc.  I may as well have retyped the actual document.  Am I doing something wrong?  Program was too expensive to have to tweak it!

  • LiveCycle Form does not render correctly in Acrobat X

    Hi,
    I created a form in LiveCycle that includes 3 pages, positioned and flowing subforms, text items and data fields, etc.  My document operates fine when I preview and test it in pdf format within LiveCycle.  However, when I open the document in Acrobat X and enter data into the form and save it and print it, it is still fine.  However, when I then go back into the form after I have saved data into it, to update it, the formatting is skewed.  It pushes data on top of data.....I have searched for the possible reason why and cannot find anything.  Can anyone help? 

    Sure,
    Here is the shot....as you can see, the first table is running over the top of the next question and the next three tables are pushed together .....   this part of the form is positioned in designer so should not even be moving. 
    This form looks and operates beautifully in the initial previews.....

  • Page does not render correctly in Firefox on Windows.

    Scroll submitted page bellow first half. You will see layout broken, text through text, white and black stripes in the background. Have you any idea what causes this problem ?
    http://www.fairelanoce.fr/catalogue/categorie/animation/

    '''Edit: I didn't scroll down far enough the first time, I see it now.'''
    Looks fine for me, but I have disabled some settings that can interact badly with certain graphics cards.
    Could you try turning off a few Firefox settings. I'm not sure whether you need all of these, but no single one seems to solve the issue for everyone.
    You usually need to restart Firefox in order for these changes to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, Browsing section, uncheck the first 3 boxes:
    # Use autoscrolling
    # Use smooth scrolling
    # Use hardware acceleration when available
    If you OK that and restart Firefox, is the issue resolved?
    Note that if some of the content getting chopped or striped is Flash video, there may be other issues.

  • Web pages posted to .Mac using iWeb do not render correctly on IE

    Okay, let's face it - most people out there use Internet Explorer (IE) to view web pages. I just published my web page using iWeb onto my iMac account. The web site renders correctly on my Mac, but does not render correctly on my PC using IE at work. Several other people using IE saw similar problems. For example, IE does not show the links until you run your mouse over them. Also, the text renders as an image (you cannot select text individualy). What do I do to ensure that all the world views the site correctly? Thanks.

    Welcome to the discussions, stoma.
    You'll have to essentially dumb your site down to IE level. Get rid of the cool effects, the transparencies, the rotated images, basically everything that makes iWeb so impressive to use. Make a nice plain site with no frills and you're 90% of the way to near 100% IE compatibility.
    Take all of your images and edit them outside of iWeb (like with other web applications) and that's another significant chunk. There will be a few bits left over, but some of those will be things you can't do anything about (like some of the page elements being created as .png's). You'll be as close to IE compatible as you can get with iWeb.
    Post your URL to let other users post as to what your SPECIFIC site would need.

  • Devanagari font in layed out in Indesign (using IndicPlus) does not export correctly to a PDF.

    Namaste InDesign gurus,
          I have a problem at hand. Wondering if anyone has encoutered similar problem before? Any help is greatly appreciated. And if you're in San Francisco bay area - I can buy you a lunch :-)
    Short description: Devanagari font in layed out in Indesign (using IndicPlus) does not export correctly to a PDF. All the ligatures are assembled and displayed in the PDF.
    Adobe Indesign Version: InDesign CS5 Design Premium - regular U.S. version (not ME).
    Steps I took:
              I purchased CS5 Design Premium and also purchased the IndicPlus plugin to author sanskrit documents in InDesign. I create Sanskrit text using either of the following methods.
    1) Itranslator
    2) Paste the devanagari from the Itranslator directly into InDesign or paste it first into MSWord and then copy from MSWord and paste it to Indesign.
    It doesn't matter how I paste it. After I apply the IndicPlus character/paragraph style so that the sanskrit looks good in InDesign, when I try to export it to a PDF. The PDF does not display the ligatures currectly. It just lists all the characters in order without assembling.
    I've spent a lot of money buying CS5, IndicPlus and then I can't even create a simple PDF document from InDesign. It is very frustrating.
    Has anyone been able to successfully export a sanscrit document from InDesign PDF ?
    (Please let me know if my problem description needs more fleshing out).
    I could create the PDF from MSWord directly but I'm trying to use indesign to layout my book. If InDesign cannot export to PDF I'll just have to use MSWord for my book layout. I've spend probably scores of hours trying to learn InDeisn and formatting my book content - seems like it is all going to be waste.
    Is MSWord the best choice or only choice for laying out books that have sanskrit text in them?
    -Ravi

    Has anyone been able to successfully export a sanscrit document from InDesign PDF ?
    Not Sanskrit, no, but plenty of Hindi, Nepali, Marathi, and other languages written in Devanagari script - so it should be possible. I don't even use IndicPlus, which by most accounts makes working with Indic text much easier.
    1) Itranslator
    I've never seen this, but a quick Google led me to the homepage of ITranslator for Windows, where I saw this:
    Itranslator 99 (Build 1.3.0.86)  & New Beta Version
    uses 8-bit true type fonts and is compatible
    with Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP.
    For more information, click here.
    Itranslator 2003 (Build 2.0.0.38) & New Beta Version
    uses 16-bit Unicode-compatible fonts and is working
    only on Windows 2000 / XP / Server 2003.
    For more information, click here.
    So, if you're using ITranslator 99, there's the problem - those "8-bit true type fonts" won't work in InDesign. Can you post a sample of the text you're trying to paste into InDesign? Name the font(s) you are using, both in Word and in Indesign, and if possible make a small sample of the text available for us to test. It's also possible that InDesign is using a substituted font, which could cause this problem. So, if the font name in InDesign has brackets around it, you know that InDesign doesn't actually have that font installed and is auto-substituting. Also, if you go to View -> Screen Mode -> Normal and the text is highlighted pink, you know that the font has dropped. (Unless the highlighting for dropped fonts was turned off - check in Edit -> Preferences -> Composition and make sure that "Substituted Fonts" is checked.
    Also, for what it's worth, is there any way you could Place your text instead of copying and pasting? This may be cause of your problem - but even though it probably isn't, it's still worth a try.
    Lastly - no, I've found InDesign to be superior for typesetting for almost all languages, but the learning curve is pretty steep, and many of the problems faced by people working in non-English languages are not easy to research when you have a problem.
