PDF file does not export correctly - words corrupt & images in half

I just exported a PDF to Word doc - words corrupt and images in half
How do I get file or document right to work with it?

We have this problem as well. Unfortunately after years of only supporting IE and finally rewriting our site to be standards compliant we are going to have to force users back to IE because of this issue. It's not feasible for us to walk users through changing the default viewer. The default should stay Adobe (if installed) until a more robust native version is available. I understand you want to promote free and open tools but if they don't work, it's just not good enough.

  • 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?

    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.

  • Acrobat/Indesign does not export correct into the selected output intention (eci_iso_coated_v2_300)

    I use the CS6 suite with Acrobat XI at windows platform.
    When I want to save a file from InDesign as .pdf with output intention eci_iso_coated_v2_300 the result is a .pdf with more than 300% ink coverage.
    I tried to transform the result in Acrobat XI into this standard output intention, but also the result has more than 300 % ink coverage.
    What is the reason of this bug?
    Before with Acrobat X this worked without problems

    Hi Rob,
    I was told the new way to work would be to draw files via Bridge direct into the InDesign file
    and I thought automatically the color would not be changed.
    my colourmanagement setting in bridge for the whole CS6 was  ECI isocoated_V2_300
    The Illustrator file was saved without color profile.
    In this test file I used 3 kinds of black: background of pirate in cmyk 79,34 / 72,78 / 59,38 / 79,88 = ink coverage 291 %
    DÜSSELPIRATEN in “black” (if you would convert this in the file with the cmyk button it would be the same ink-percentage as before
    “e.V.” was set to 100 % k
    I set the preferences for Acrobat from InDesign CS6 as pdf X4 with profile eci isocoatedV2_300 in three ways:
    no color conversion
    convert to profile
    convert to profile keeping existing values
    in all tree files the pirates background has 322 % ink coverage instead of 291 %
    Why does Acrobat convert “black” in the wrong way?  If I click in Illustrator on the 4c button to convert the “black” into 4c it is 291% ink
    Acrobat should come to the same result with all profiles: iso coated V2 and iso coated V2_300
    The same happens also by saving as .pdf X3 or .X1
    The minimum what I expect is, that Acrobat reduces ink coverage for black to 300 %
    I also made test with the new ECI profiles for laminated prints from 2012.
    And with newspaper profiles
    In this case the ink coverage comes below 300 %, but only when I choose convert to profile.
    And then the 100 % k converts to cmyk, what I don’t want to have with text.
    Is there no way to reduce ink coverage below a special percentage without changing Text 100% k
    And is there a bug in Acrobat XI with the ECI IsoCoated_V2_300 Profile? For there is no color reduction below 300 % in all conversion settings.
    I can’t test this with Acrobat X or IX, for my computers with this software don’t run with CS6 64 bit.
    enclosed you find my files

  • WDS "The file does not contain a valid install image"

    I have WDS installed on a Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 machine.  I can quite happily import Windows 7 Install images from the Windows 7 installation DVD, but if I try to import from the Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 installation DVD, at sources\install.wim, I
    get:
    "The file does not contain a valid install image"
    If I run WDSUTIL from the command line I get:
    "An install image could not be found in the image file".
    I believe that the DVD is fine as I can install machines from it and mount the sources\install.wim file using DISM.
    Anyone any idea what's wrong?
    Note that the problem is not with my own images, it's with the image as supplied on media direct from Microsoft.

    Which download link did you use to get your SP1 media? From this link:

  • Content Organizer bug - PDF files does not get routed correctly if autodeclaration is on and library level default values are set

    It looks like whenever one specifies Column default values at a library level then the content organizer routing goes a bit awry SPECIFICALLY FOR NON OFFICE FILES [e.g. PDF] . Below are the observations and issues
    1. Column level default value set on a record library with auto declaration of records turned on.  The content organizer routes the document to the library but also keeps a copy of the document in the drop off library. It does not remove it from the drop
    off library. The instant we clear the default value settings at the library level of the target library the content organizer works as expected again. 
    2. If default value settings are specified on a column in the target library then the PDF file gets routed to the document library but all the metadata is blanked out. The copy of the file that remains in the drop off library has all the correct metadata but
    the target library has blanked out metadata. 
    Are the 2 observations described above by design or are they bugs? If so is there any documentation that is available that proves this because this does not make logical sense and proving this to a client in the absence of any documentation is a challenge.
    The problem goes away if we shift the default value to the site columns directly at the site collection level. It's just the library level defaults that the pdf files do not seem to agree with

    Hi Lisa,
    Thanks for responding. This can be replicated in any environment but is only replicable for a specific combination of content organizer settings . The combination of settings I am referring to can be seen in the screenshot below. If you turn off redirect
    users to the drop off library for direct uploads to libraries and if you turn on sharepoint versioning then you should be able to replicate the issue. Also we are using managed metadata site columns. I simplified this use case to a custom content content type
    with just 2 custom managed metadata columns and can still replicate the issue in several environments. Also note the issue does not occur if the default values are set at the site or site collection level. It only occurs if you set the column value default
    at a library level.  I was able to replicate this on a completely vanilla Enterprise records site collection freshly created just to test this.  Also note that the issue is not that the file does not reach the destination library. The issue is the
    document does not get removed from the drop off library after it is transfered to the destination library which technically should have gotten removed.

  • Error from reports from ZAM(Graph or PDF) - File does not begin with '%PDF-'.

    I just noticed today that any Graph or PDF report I try to view I get the

  • The Downloaded PDF file does not contain the Signature through BSP pages

    HI,
    We have an requirement for Distributing the FORM 16 to all Employee's through our Website, where the user will login and download his own FORM 16 ( TDS Certificate)
    This FORM 16 ( TDS Certificate ) is generated in SAP ( ECC 6.0 ) in Payroll Module.
    To satisfy the above requirement we have done the following steps.
    1) First we have modified the standards SAP Sapscript(Layout) to incorporate the Signature of Authorised Payroll Person. 
    We have done this by uploading the BMP file ( though t-code SE78 ) and then calling this file in the Standards layout which prints the FORM 16 document.
    2) WE also Modifed the Dirver program to Download the above document in a .PDF  file. 
    The Program creates the seperate file for each employee and assigns the employee number as a file name to each downloaded file. These all files are downloaded on a Users Machine.
    We opened the Downloaded .PDF files, and checked for the Signatures. The Signature were comming perfect as it ws uploaded.
    3) We uploaded these all FORM 16 PDF file off all emlpoyee's to a different SERVER ( BW 7.0 ). With the help of BASIS person, using the FTP utility.
    4) We wrote a BSP program to download this ulploaded PDF Files.
    BUT we are facing a PROBLEM in the DOWNLOADED PDF file.
    The Downloaded file does not contain the Signature which is there is the Original file we uploded this server.
    All other data in the dowloaded PDF file is Perfect other than the Signature.
    When we open the downlaoded PDF file it give's following  message on the Signautre page.
    " Xobject not found named 00013"
    The number of the Object comes different to different files.
    We are using Function module 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING' to Convert string to Xstring
    We are using the the " CALL METHOD CL_BSP_UTILITY=>DOWNLOAD" for downloading the PDF file.
    Please suggest some solution if you can
    Thanks in advnace.

    Hi melisaf76024648,
    Can you please tell me what process you're using to create the PDF? Are you scanning directly from the scanner into Acrobat? Or, are you scanning the document, and then using Adobe PDF Pack to convert the scanned image to PDF? Or, some other method?
    Please walk me through how you're creating the PDF, and we will have a better idea where things went awry.

  • Windows 7 32 bit search of PDF files does not work

    I have installed Windows 7 on a 32 bit Dell Laptop and I can no longer search the content of my PDF files using Microsoft's search in Windows Explorer which I need to do. I’ve tried following the advice listed on several sites on line and nothing seems to work. My 64bit processor required a download of Adobe PDF iFilter 9 for 64-bit platforms and those systems work fine. All the write-ups suggest that Reader XI for 32 bit Windows 7 has the filter built in and Microsoft indexing indicates it is there but I still can't search for words in a PDF like I could using Windows XP.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance for any help.

    I will never understand why but in the end I rebuilt my 32 bit dell laptop from scratch and the pdf files can now be searched.
    I cannot search them on a mapped drive as I was able to with Windows XP because now they must be indexed and windows 7 will seems not to allow a mapped location to be indexed which must be done to make the pdf files searchable so I have had to move the files to the local drive.
    My Windows 7 64 bit systems can search the mapped drives just fine without needing to be indexed. Again I will never understand why this works and the 32 bit machine does not.

  • Concatenated PDF file does not show all content.

    When I concatenate 2 single page pdf file into one pdf file, the concatenated page does not show all the content. It misses the last line on the 2nd page.
    However the thumbnails view shows the missing line correctly.
    Also, if I view the concatenated pdf into another pdf view, it shows the content correctly.

    Upon further research in the merged pdf file, it appears the merged pdf file has 2 references to the same field "UFE_ISSUE_DATE".
    If I edit the pdf file in the text editor and change one of the field name to "UFE_ISSUE_DATE_TEST", then the pdf gets rendered correctly with date value shown correctly!
    So, we decided to use 2 different field names in each of the individual pdf for this field only.
    But, what causes confusion is that we do have several other fields with same field name in each of the individual pdf file, but upon merge they appear correctly. Searching for such field name in the merged pdf file via text editor, I can see only 1 reference. Not sure, why this particular field "UFE_ISSUE_DATE" has 2 references in the merged pdf file.
    Any one has any thoughts?

  • Link in pdf-file does not work on Ipad

    With my site www.bartkuijer.nl I offer visitors the free possibility to see (and download) sheetmusic, from music written by me. These are pdf-files. But they can not only SEE the sheetmusic; the music on that pdf-files can also be PLAYED. That's done bij clicking on a link in that pdf-file to a mp3-file of the music on my site.
    This works fine on a pc. When I try this on the Ipad of my wife it DOES NOT WORK!
    So my question is: how come? And what to do to make this work also fine on an Ipad.
    This is important for me, because I want this sheetmusic to place as Ipad-apps for free.

    It works!
    But not with a pdf-file. The Ipad does not recognize links in a pdf-file.
    Te solution is found by making a htm-file with emdedding a quicktime-player and images of the music. This is my first Ipad product. On a pc the player starts immediately; on the Ipad it has to be started.
    Now I have to work on a solution to change this to an app
