Pdf dowloading problems

When trying to download pdfs of academic journal articles I either get the first page of the document (and nothing else) or a message that says that I need to download additional add-ons, followed by a page of many options with no suggestion as to which. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

What exactly do you mean? You go to the source using, say, Safari, you download the article, then you open it with Preview and get only the first page or the message? Somehow, it doesn't sound like Preview.
It is possible that these articles use the latest PDF version extension, which is not supported by SL Preview. In this case, you need the latest version of Acrobat Reader from Adobe.
However, most academic journal articles are not free. You can access them through a service like jStor or ScienceDirect, but either you have to pay for it, or the institution you're affiliated with pays for a subscription; in the latter case, you need to use the portal this institution provides in order to access the full-text articles.

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.

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

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.

Hi Suresh,
I just tried this thing in my systtem and it is working... BADI is trigerred everytime there is a change in the PO... even when you release there is a change in the PO so this BADI will be triggerred....
I suggest you should implement BADI in your dev system and place a break point in the POST method...
After that create a PO and release it using ME29N... thereafter when you save the PO... this method will trigger and you will have access to PO details...
PS: Remember this BADI wont work for transaction ME29...

Pdf fonts problem in 10.6.7 - resolved in 10.6.8 combo update?

The pdf fonts problem in 10.6.7 forced me to go through the long uninstall process after a couple days stressing over what the problem was -- it was Adobe tech support that finally informed me what the problem was. Is the problem fixed in the 10.6.8 combo update? Since I got no replies when I asked this question a different way yesterday, can anyone say (for helpful answer points) whether Apple would be inclined to answer this question if I just call them up (i.e., without existing AppleCare)? Any other suggestions for getting official support on this question? As it stands, I fear updating at all, and could be stuck with 10.6.6 for a long time.

Frame Maker 9 and 10 PDF Print problem

Frame Maker 9 and 10 PDF Print problem
Hi I have an computer with windows 7 and the Adobe Software.
The Distiller 9 with adobe Acrobat 9 and Adobe Design Standard CS3 is also installed.
Now, I open in Frame Maker 9(Full Version) or 10(Trial Version)   an *.fm File. Then I go to “File- save as pdf” and then save I receive an message like this:
“to execute the ‘Save as PDF’ is necessary to have install Acrobat Distiller 5.05 or higher”. But I have the Distiller 9.
Then I can click OK and now I receive another message like this: “you must define “PDF job options” if you want to execute it.”
If I look for the PDF job options I can’t select something. But if I look in the Distiller I have a lot of option I can select.
What is the problem. Is there a solution?
Can somebody help me?

Using AW 6.2.9 and Mac OS X v10.5.7, the file prints successfully to pdf using the "Save as PDF..." option in the print dialogue. I didn't try to print the result to paper, but that appears to eliminate the file itself as the cause of the problem.
Two first aid steps that might resolve the issue:
Delete the AW preferences.
In the Finder, click the house icon (yourname) in the sidebar of a Finder window, then Library > Preferences..
   Locate and delete the file com.apple.appleworks.plist
   Open the folder AppleWorks
      Delete both cache files and the two preferences files.
      It's also safe to delete the Button Bars file, but unless you have issues related to the Button Bars, you're also safe to leave it there.
AppleWorks will create new (and clean) versions of these files as it needs them.
Repair Permissions.
Go Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility
Launch the application, select your startup drive, click First Aid, click Repair Permissions.
Regards,
Barry

PDF Export Problems

bei using interactive functions in inDesign CS5 and then exporting to pdf, I am able to see exactly everithing I wanted in AcrobatPro, but not in Adobe Reader. What can I do, so that anybody who uses Reader can see it too? Anybody knows?? Thanks

What is it that you can not see in Reader: button behavior, rollover effect,
hyperlink, etc. ?
Wow, I am impressed about the fast reaction:-)
The interactive function I am using (unfortunately in German inDesign) is
"button" > Action: by letting go (?). It's a file with some 100 pages and
some 500 links. Exported as pdf interactive...
The effect In AcrobatPro: when clicking on the thumbnail the original
picture shows in a separate window without closing the original file. After
closing the new window, I could continue in the multipage file...
This is not happening in Adobe Reader. It says: the link was not found, and
here and then, when shown in e new window, the multipage file is closed...
Hope this helps..
Thanks Jaro
PS
I did reply on the forum directly, but no success. There trying via mail.
Hope it works:-)

More PDF Printing Problems

There are lots of notes in this forum crying about PDF printing problems. For what it's worth, I'd like to add mine.
I'm using Jakarta FOP to generate a PDF on the fly from XML data. The PDFs it's producing are read and displayed nicely by Adobe Acrobat and print from Acrobat without a problem.
I've also written a simple desktop app that exercises the java.print package. (I won't bore anybody with a listing.) It uses the PrintServiceLookup to discover the two networked printers I have attached to my machine, using DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE. I have it discover all the supported document flavors. Here's the result:
application/octet-stream
application/x-java-jvm-local-objectref
image/gif
image/jpeg
image/png
I can sent text documents to the printer without a problem. But when I try to send a PDF generated by FOP that renders and prints fine from Acrobat, I get gibberish text out. I'm using DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE as my DocFlavor when I create the doc.
I don't see application/pdf on my list of supported document flavors. Should I? If that's a requirement, what do I have to do to the printer to get it on the list? Why is Adobe Acrobat smart enough to print to a printer wo/ this flavor and javax.print not? TIA - MOD

Now I get it - I can't send PDFs from Java to a printer. A careful reading of forum threads and John Zukowski's note have driven a stake into the heart of the vampire.
I can bring them up just fine by creating the PDF using FOP and then sending the page back to the browser for rendering. If my client could just print the document from his machine, all would be well.
However, my app has a situation where some label printers will ONLY be attached to the server. They won't be visible from the client. I thought I had a solution with javax.print, but now that hope's gone.
The printers I have aren't Postscript, so suggestions to ask FOP to generate Postcript won't help me.
Adobe's site didn't offer any relief.
I haven't been able to find any for-fee or open source packages that might help. Plenty of stuff out there to convert to PDF, but nothing that helps to print it once you have it.
Is there any point in entering this as a bug in the database? It's less bug and more vaporware. After all, the docs never SAID they'd thrown an invalid flavor exception if you tried to print a PDF.
Sun, are you listening? - MOD

PDF Printing Problem with HP UPD Printer

Hi,
in our Company we use the HP UPD Driver PCL5 in Version 5.9.0.18326. The Printermodells are HP LaserJet Pro 400 M401, HP LaserJet Pro 400 Color M451, HP LaserJet Enterprise Flow M830z, HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M525dn, HP LaserJet Enterprise M630dn, HP LaserJet Enterprise Flow M680z and HP LaserJet Enterprise Flow M880z with newest Firmware.
If a PDF file is printed using Adobe Reader, it takes a long time until the file is printed on the printer. Partially individual pages are printed in one-minute intervals. But if I use another PDF viewer such as Foxit Reader, PDF documents can be printed at normal speed.
Other documents, such as Word or Excel files are printed normally. Only PDF documents that are printed with Acrobat Reader or Adobe Acrobat are affected. We use the Acrobat Reader version 11.0.10. With version 11.0.6, the problem also occurs.
Sometimes it also happens that the PDF document fills up the memory of the printer when it was printed with Adobe Reader. With Foxit Reader this does not happen with the same document.
Does anyone know this problem and knows what to do?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

PDF Exaprom, problem with multitext in one header

Problem is,that according to my simply thiking when I connect two elements Append Text HF one by one serialy with some text in header, and in their properties I set alligment both of them at left- MIDDLE in my opinion it suppose to overwrite one text on secand. When I set one text at left-MIDDLE and secont text in center-MIDDLE is should firstly create one text at left side, another at the middle. I doesn't.... When you try to combine with alligment of text,you easly notice,that when it's creating first text at the left side,it devide page on 3 and locate it at 1 collumn, and then when you pass this PDF Report to second Append Text HF this subVI divide not the same lenght of the side, but those 2-3 columnt whose left!!!! In effect text wich suppose to be at center of document is the center of 2-3 parts of document.
Do I doing something wrong or is it program bug?

Report fonts mapping and PDF output problem(Easten European languages)

Hi experts,
I have such a problem.
If i run oracle reports(10g) via reports builder all layouts looks fine.
When i run them in PDF format via application server - report text and numbers strech out off frames, also textfields and text itself becomes bigger in size.
Aplication server runs over windows OS.
Uifont.ali file looks:
[ PDF:Subset ]
Arial..Italic.Bold.. = "Arialbi.ttf"
Arial...Bold.. = "Arialbd.ttf"
Arial..Italic... = "Ariali.ttf"
Arial..Plain... = "Arial.ttf"
Arial..... = "Arial.ttf"
"Times New Roman"...Bold.. = "TIMESBD.TTF"
"Times New Roman"..Italic... = "TIMESI.TTF"
"Times New Roman"..... = "TIMES.TTF"
I think the problem is with Lithuanian(baltic) letters in the text. If i do not map fonts in uifont.ali file i get PDF report without the
lithuanian alphabet letters, but in this case it looks fine(The same as in report builder)
After fonts mapping, i get my lithuanian alphabet letters, but text and numbers strech out off frames, changes the size and etc.
I put the example of my report uotput:
http://pirmas.50webs.com/index.html
What else can i do to solve this problem?
Thanks for any suggestions

Email PDF Convertion problem

Hi,
Thanks to the DIS, I'm able to check-in e-mail in my Content Server;
As for Word, Excel and Powerpoint files, I would like to convert this incoming e-mail in PDF.
As indicated in the PDF COnvertor documentation, it is possible to convert e-mail messages into PDF.
To realize it, I defined a new file format in the Configuration Manager of the CS.
The name is "application/outsidein". I chose "OutsideIn Technology" as "Conversion".
In the file extension, I added "msg" and I mapped to the newly created format.
Thanks to that, the email message is converted in PDF. Fine !
The problem is the result of the conversion. It is just awful. The parts indicating the sender, the subject, ... is displayed in several pages.
My email server is Microsoft Outlook 2007.
Does anyone know how to improve the quality of the PDF conversion ?
Thanks in advance
Pierre

the arabic font may not be supported by adobe with the version of adobe that you are using,
Try another application that allows you to export to Adobe and see if the same issue occurs.
You may need to get a full blown version of Adobe rather that just you the adobe provided by Crystal.
