Pdf export in pages (email as pdf) do not keep font style !!!

I wrote a simple page in Pages with tables and i used Times News Roman police and also used a Bold style for some sentence.
I was really surprised that the pdf export completely replace font police a no more visible difference between normal and bold style !
please help ! this is really not usable.
Thanks

I just made a very simple one page Pages document (blank) with Times New Roman with both regular and bold text. I emailed the Pages document as a PDF to myself. The Pages document (PDF) displayed the text as both regular and bold Times New.
Did you view the Pages pdf on the ipad or your decktop computer? Try making another Pages document and see if your still having this problem.

I have tried a lot to find an app or some way in email to attach multiple of pdf files in one email. I could not find anything that sends multiple pdf file in one email and still keeping the file in simple pdf format for the recipient.

I am not aware of a way except for photos that allows you to select multiple files in an email. I even checked settings in the Adobe Reader app, and it does not show that ability.

How do I view/print a pdf document in an email? I'm not getting the little hand icon.

Ah, yes, I'm using Adobe Reader! That makes sense. Thanks so much for your reply. At the moment, I scan Word documents into my computer and they're automatically converted to PDFs. If I had Adobe Acrobat on my computer, and scanned in documents, would they open in Reader automatically or could I open them in Acrobat and therefore add password protection?

Since you don't say what the "formatting problems" are, all we can say is:
"There, there. Hope they get better."

Attach .pdf exported from Pages

I have a very specific problem. I understand the reason that Pages files cannot be attached in an email, but even the .pdf's or .doc's that I export via Pages cannot be attached to my Hotmail account. They can be attached in my gmail, but I use my Hotmail account for all of my business communication. I also know that you can send them via the Share menu in Pages, but that doesn't create a local file on my HD, but rather opens up the Mail app, which I do not want to use with my Hotmail account.
Can I create a .pdf file from within Pages that can be attached to a Hotmail email, from the web, not through Mail? Please hel me out on this one....
Some more details:
I am running Lion
I am new to iWork, have recently switched from using Office.
The Web brower I am using is Google Chrome
Thanks,
Matt

Hey, I actually solved the issue.
Having discovered that the one non-Pages created .pdf file that I had tested to see whether it would attach before my original post was the ONLY .pdf on my computer that would attach, I did some more research. It turns out it has to do with the Microsoft Silverlight plugin. I disabled the plugin, and everything now attaches as it should.
Now if only I could attach files, AND watch movies on Netflix without having to toggle the **** plugin on and off....

Is there a way to export individual page items as PDF or EPS?

I have a long document, all threaded, with a bunch of inline graphics. Many of the inline graphics have callouts and pointer lines. I take the graphics, callouts, and pointers, group them, and then cut and paste the group inline into the text flow. I want to be able to tag the graphic (complete with pointers and callouts) for an XML export. But I cannot tag a grouped object. I remember learning at the PeP conference in May that one way was to build the graphic with callouts in AI, and then place it into ID. But I already have an established workflow, with hundred of grouped inline objects in my ID docs.
So I was wondering if there is a script that will allow me to export individual page page items as PDF or EPS. I know that you can export page items as JPEG, but I don't want rasterized text. Please assist. Thanks.

PDF exported from Pages (mountain lion) results in jagged font not smooth

I am using Mac air mid-2012 + Mountain Lion (OS X 10.9.4) + Pages (5.2)
I used Arial - Regular - font 12 pt to write a resume. After I export to PDF the font on pdf looks anti-aliased, jagged not smooth on 100% scale. The font in Pages is ok.
I export the same file to *.doc and opened it with OpenOffice and export to PDF using OpenOffice, the font looks no problem.
I have the option "Use LCD font smoothing when available" option checked in system preferences.
Does anyone have the same issue?

This is a known issue in Pages 5's tables. Pages 5 has been out for 9 months now and there is no sign of Apple fixing the issue.
Use Pages '09 if you have it.

Exporting from Pages Mavericks to pdf not working

I want to export my Pages Mavericks document to a pdf. It's not working. Everytime I do it, a box comes that says, it's not possible. What is going wrong? Why can't I export to pdf?

Either some of them have the same name or they are to big in Mb for your Pages to convert. It doesn't matter where they come from, they are all in the saved document. Downsize them before you add them to the Pages document.

I can't export anymore pages file to pdf

When I try to export pages file in pdf format (ever done without problems till few hours ago!) there is an alert advising me that files name having more than 31 characters can't be saved in the destination volume. But although I cut the lenght of the file name, the alert still be. I'm blocked with any possibility to transform pages file in pdf and I need it. I also reset the mac , but nothing happened. PLEASE HELP ME !!!

Hi,
I'm using version 4.1. As far as Pages is concerned, nothing else has happened. Everything was working normally. However, I had to uninstall Norton recently because the online Back-up that came bundled with my renewal was creating crazy log files that took up my entire hard drive (over 900 GB). I don't see how that would be related to my problems with Pages. Any insight would be really appreciated. Thanks!

PDF export from Pages results in jagged fonts when viewed in Preview

Hi There,
Since installing 10.5.5 I get the following strange behavior: When exporting a file in PDF from Pages certain fonts (such as Palatino) are not shown antialiased anymore when viewed in any Apple software (Preview/Safari). When viewed in Adobe Reader, the fonts appear smooth.
The strange thing is that, when I view PDF files generated last year before updating to 10.5.5 they still show with antialiased (i.e. smooth) fonts in the current Preview/Safari.
It gets even stranger: When exporting the files as .doc into (the resented and ridiculously slow and memory gulping) Word 2008, and then converting them into PDF via the Print command, this phenomenon does not occur, i.e. the fonts look smooth in Preview/Safari.
I would appreciate if anyone had some constructive input to this problem. I would really like to be able avoiding using Word!
Thanks much in advance!

I had the exact same problem that you were describing. I'd create a document in Pages '08, then export it to PDF and I'd find that the text wouldn't be anti-aliased in the PDF.
I was using one of the resumé templates that comes with Pages '08. The template by default sets the font size very low in certain areas of the page, as low a 7. I went through my document and bumped up font sizes that were below 9 and set them to 9. Now when I export to PDF the text looks great.
It was far from obvious to me that the font sizes were linked to the anti-aliasing in my exported PDFs.

[CS5][JS] Efficiently export 100+ page book as PDF?

Hello,
I'm creating an InDesign Book via javascript, and this book will contain more than 100 single page InDesign Documents. My script to create the book works fine - but takes anywhere from 5-8 minutes to run.
However, when I run my script to open that book and export as a PDF, it takes 10+ minutes just to export the PDF, and then it times out on our InDesign Development server. I'm wondering if I can more efficiently write my script to create the book, as well as my script to export the book as a PDF. Both scripts are very simple:
CreateInDesignBook();
function CreateInDesignBook(){
    var myBook = app.books.add('c:/myBook.indb');
    myBook.bookContents.add('file_1.indd');
    myBook.bookContents.add('file_2.indd');
    // and so on, with potentially 100-200 more .indd files added
    myBook.close(SaveOptions.YES);
ExportInDesignBook();
function ExportInDesignBook(){
    var myBook = app.open('c:/myBook.indb');
    var myFile = new File('myPDF.pdf');
    myBook.exportFile(ExportFormat.pdfType, myFile, false, app.pdfExportPresets.item('[Smallest File Size]'));
    myBook.close(SaveOptions.NO);
Thanks in advance for any help/advice!
-Lloyd

As for creating my book, I have found that if I create the single Indesign pages (each contain a page-size PDF) in increments of 50 pages per document (so could have 3 documents of 50 pages each getting added to my book), the books are created MUCH faster (less than a minute). However, exporting that book as a PDF still took roughly 11 minutes.
Does anyone know if there is a faster way to export this? I'm just trying to avoid time-outs on the server. Is there a way I could add pages/documents to an existing PDF (instead of exporting the entire book/document as one PDF)? If that were the case I could just add 50 pages at a time to the PDF and maybe not even need the book anymore?
Ultimately, I just need an efficient way to get all pages into a single PDF.
Thanks in advance for any help!

PDF export from Pages fails "Print - error while printing"

Every month I have been generating PDF versions of my invoices by using the 'export' function of Pages. This has always worked fine without any problems.
Today (end of Feb 08), the pdf export function always fails with 'Print - error while printing". A pdf file is saved to disc but it is corrupted and unreadable. I can still export as rtfd.
I don't see anything about this in the logs, but I do notice that there was a Pages software update to 3.0.2 earlier this month.
Anybody know how to fix this?

Hello
Before re-installing, it may be useful to
a - repair permissions with Disk Utility
b - trash the preferences file: <bootVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Preferences:com.apple.iWork.Pages.plis t
if it's not sufficient, try to print from an other user account.
If it works this way, you will know that the application's files are not the wrongdoers as every account calls the same application file.

Can't crop PDFs exported from Pages anymore

Dear all,
first of all: I'm aware that the issue is not truely a Pages one, but it's related and I think the right people for an answer follow this forum.
Short history: All starts with the problem that Pages somehow defines a minimal page size, often larger than the figures I'm creating for my thesis are. The usual workflow so far was: Export to PDF from the Pages print dialogue; open resulting PDF in Preview; make and copy the figure part; in Preview create new PDF from clipboard.
Recently, I switched to using the Abracadabra quartz filters to export PDFs from Pages, to get better quality shadows, which seems to work fine. However, now the above workflow does not work anymore. After copying the selection in the resulting PDF, the new PDF from clipboard still has the same paper dimensions as the original, not as the selection. I also tried Skim in any way, no success so far.
Does somebody have an idea? Thanks!
Oliver

creating for my thesis
1. You do not need to flatten transparency while you are setting up the design space and populating it with graphic data, only when you save to ISO 15930 PDF/X-3 or ISO 19005-1:2005 PDF/A. Transparency was first supported in Apple QuickDraw GX in 1994, in Apple Quartz in 2000, and in Adobe PDF 1.4 in 2001. Adobe PDF 1.3 and Adobe PostScript level 1, 2, and 3 use an opaque imaging model.
1. You need to think about whether you want your typography to be searchable if you plan to distribute your thesis for paper-less publishing. Half or more of the glyphs in an intelligent font are presentation forms that cannot be directly depicted onto characters in ISO-IEC 10646. Presentation forms can be composed in Apple system type services, but they cannot be decomposed for search after saving to Apple system PDF services.

Does anyone know how to deactivate a hyperlinks from a PDF exported from Pages?

I have created a pages doc that I needs to be exported as PDF. In pages, I all the hyperlinks are deactivated, but every time I export it to a PDF the hyperlinks are reactivated. Does anyone know how to make sure the hyperlinks stay deactivated once the doc is converted to a PDF?

If the links are spelled out (example:http://www.somewebsite.com) and not actual hyperlinks where the links are embedded under regular text, Reader will recognize them as links automatically unless the user has that option turned off (it's on be default). You can't keep that from happening unless the text is an image.

Convert terminal man page to pdf/export man page as pdf

Hi there,
Would anyone of you know how to export a man page as a pdf?

I've read several books on UNIX and the bash shell, and read the sections of several MacOSX books on UNIX. I started dabbling way way back, used Linux a bit on a rebuilt 486, installed some UNIX based stuff on pre-OS X Macs (there was Yellow Dog, and something else, whose name escapes me, I used on my 7100). Back then it was best to buy books. These days you can find anything you want to know along those lines on the internet. An excellent place to start:
http://www.osxfaq.com/Tutorials/LearningCenter/index.ws
Whenever I discover/see a useful command I add it to my "cheat sheet" along with an example and an explanation of it. I've organized my "cheat sheet" into categories that make sense to me, so that I can quickly find what I want.
A really handy helpful application for this sort of thing is Clix from Rixstep:
http://rixstep.com/4/0/clix/index.shtml
It has various lists of commands, categories and explanations. Truly great software, and it's free.
