PDF File Format Issue

I have a PC in which I have InDesign CS4 installed. I am trying to create a book cover using a preset template that is saved in a pdf format. How do I get this program to open this type of file?

Sorry, InDesign has never opened PDF files. You can choose File > Place. You could put the template on its own layer and reduce its opacity so you could use it as a template for your project.

Statement of Accounts Output to PDF file format and email to customers

Hi,
Would appreciate inputs from contributors on the issues/requirements below.
I have two requirements regarding the output of Customer Statement Of Accounts (form):
1. The output is to be in Adobe PDF file format;
2. The file has to be emailed automatically to customers based on the email address maintained in the Customer Master;
I envisage that the program would be executed online (on demand) or in the background via scheduled jobs. Due to complexity of the customer's requirements, we will be using a customized program to generate the form.
I am not familiar with both requirements. Would appreciate contribution on how to set up the above.

ICloud support for .pdf file format

Help mentions iCloud supports .pdf file formats, but then does not show anything about how to get one of these files onto iCloud. Since the pdf files I have were never created by one of the supported Application how does one place or retrieve a pdf file to/from iCloud?
Thanks

PSE 4 does do 16 bit - although there are a limited number of things you can do at that depth.
It has essentially no support for actions.

What (ISO?) document completely specifies the PDF file format?

Is there ONE (ISO?) document that FULLY specifies the format of a PDF file format? Where to obtain it?
I need it so I can write a program that will perform some processes on PDF files.
Thanks

For all practical purposes there's no file size limit in the ISO PDF specification, however the bit length of internal references means there will be problems at around 10GB. There's also a limit of 2 billion pages (the page count attribute is a 32-bit int).
Distiller won't output more than 32767 pages at a time, but I know cases of archivists working with 100,000-page text files (created by appending thousands of documents, but not in Acrobat).
Having said that, the Acrobat Family is 32-bit code, so can only allocate 2GB of process memory. This means you can't perform tasks where an asset larger than the allocated free space has to be retained in RAM, and that includes the save operation. The Acrobat X Family will open an existing file >2GB, and Acrobat X will assemble PDF Portfolios >2GB, but can't save them.
Given that creating >2GB files is a very rare scenario, there are no announced plans to implement x64 flavors of Acrobat or Distiller.

Convert pdf xstring to pdf file format

Hi, All,
Could anybody know how to convert xstring(hexadecimal format like 255044462D) to pdf file format? I have to output pdf xstring which generated in SAP to XI, then output PDF file. Thanks a lot!
Marea

From what I've understood from Michal's blog code, it will depend on the format that you choose for the file to have.
In his case, he used
type = if_ai_attachment=>C_MIMETYPE_JPEG
In your case, you could use the equivalent type for PDF files.
If you search for the IF_AI_ATTACHMENT interface in SE80 (ABAP Workbench), under Attributes folder you'll be able to see the constants which are defined in the interface. And there you have C_MIMETYPE_PDF (associated to the content-type 'application/pdf').
I don't know whether it is possible to do the type association using the RFC payload (probably not). The ABAP Proxy attachment seems to be the best approach.

Henrique.

Acrobat pdf file format is having difficulties. Object label badly formatted.

I'm using Adobe Illustrator CS5 on a PC (Windows XP)
When I try to open one particular file, I get the following message:
"Acrobat pdf file format is having difficulties. Object label badly formatted."
I've seen some discussions about this error msg previously, but only when using CS4, and everyone was referring to some type of "suitcase fusion", which I am not using.
Any help that you can provide would be greatly appreciated

I created the file in Illustrator CS5 and saved it as an .ai file.
It does not open in Acrobat or Reader... not sure what other programs you think I should try?
It's basically a bunch of lines and some text... the text is a Font that we use here at the MTO (FHWA)
This is the first time I've ever had this problem.
The weird thing is if I try to open the file in Illustrator by clicking "File", then "Open..." and then highlight the file in the "Open Dialog Window", I can see a preview of the file. But then when I finally click "open" in the dialog window, I get that error message?

Acrobat PDF FIle Format is having difficulties...

I've got an error that appears pretty reliably. I open a multi-page PDF file in Illustrator, choosing one page to edit. I save that page with a new name as a PDF file, and that works fine. Now, if I edit the file at all and save it again, I get "Acrobat PDF File Format is having difficulties. Bad parameter." And there's no way to save the file.
If I close without saving and open the single-page PDF file again, it usually behaves well. But any time I get that message I lose all of the unsaved changes and have to repeat them.
I'm using CS3, version 13.0.2. OS 10.4.10. Any assistance is appreciated...
Rodney

I've had the same problem in various versions of Illustrator on the Mac, up to and including CS3. Based on the previous comment, this appears to happen only if your Illustrator document starts life as a generic PDF file. So this is my solution (which worked today for me).
Make sure all layers are visible and unlocked.
Copy all your artwork to the clipboard (Select -> All then Edit -> Copy, or cmd-A then cmd-C)
Create a new document with the same dimensions as your original one.
Show the layers palette, and choose "Paste Remembers Layers" from the popup menu.
Paste your artwork into the new document (Edit -> Paste or cmd-V)
Save the new document.
You should be able to edit and re-save the new document whenever needed after that, although you may find that the file is larger than the original one.

PDF File format having difficulties?

When I save in Illustrator CS3, I get the following message:
Acrobat PDF File Format is having difficulties. File format does not begin with '%PDF-'.
and it won't save. If I try a "save as," it saves, but then the file won't open later, because it says it isn't an illustrator file. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciate. I don't want to lose any more work.
Sean

I am afraid so.
You may try this:
0. Copy the corrupted file under a new name as backup;
1. Open Notepad (or something like it) and open the corrupted file with it;
2. Open Notepad (or something like it) again and open a valid file with it;
3. Copy the first part from the valid file down tothe line before %%Title, or down to the first full line in the corrupted file, but no further than to ;
4. Paste that part into the hopefully no longer corrupted file, avoiding repetition;
5. Try opening it.

File formatting issues when saving PDF as PPTX in Acrobat XI Pro

Hi guys,
I have some issues when I'm saving my PDF (initially comming from InDesign) as PPTX. The format is suddenly changing, leaving a blank zone, and some of the pages are rotated.
Is it a problem comming from the Indesign or from the Acrobat options itself? I have already tried changing the chekboxes in the option box when I'm saving, but nothing worked.
If someone has an idea how to fix that, i would be very grateful! Thanks in advance

Which dot version of Acrobat XI are you currently using in your export? Is the PDF file tagged? If not, then you may want to tag the PDF file before exporting it.

Converting files to PDF causing formatting issues.

Hello.
I am experiencing issues with converting an Excel file to a PDF and retaining its format. The first page converts fine, no formatting issue.But every page after that is shrinking the font and making the images smaller. This employee has tried to save the Excel file as a PDF and tried printing it through the Adobe print driver, but both are producing the same issue.
The troubleshooting steps I have taken to try to resolve this issue are below.
reinstall Adobe Acrobat
tried modifying the margins
tried a different machine
Cleaned the Temp folder
Any suggestions on a fix for this?

Hi Bill.
Thank you for the response. I tested what you have suggested and this did not work. When Adobe PDF printer is selected, it looks fine in the print preview, but once the Excel sheet has been processed, the format is not correct. I tested this also with printing a hard copy to a printer, still the formatting looks fine in the print preview. Once the file has been printed, it is not formatted the same. I have also removed the Adobe Driver and installed it again. Still doesn't work.
Any suggestions?

Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard Combine Files Format Issue

I have an issue combining multiple PDF files into one. Every week we create a sales deck that is made of up 30 or so files. most of the files are created from a program called Cognos Impromptu using the Cognos PDF Server 5.0.44.0. According to the document properties, it creates a PDF Version: 1.3(Acrobat 4.x). I can not change this conversion setting.
I then convert several word documents and Excel documents into PDF files separately and then combine them all together. These individual files are created using Acrobat Distiller 7.0.5 (Windows) and creates a PDF Version: 1.4(Acrobat 5.x).
The problem happens when I throw one of the files created from Cognos into the mix. It causes the formatting on the PDF files created from word and excel to become "ugly". Random letters just drop off from the report and make it unreadable. Pages created from the cognos reports are always ok. If I try the combine excluding the cognos converted PDF files, it works perfectly.
This happened when we got new computers last week. By some stroke of luck, I was able to fix it on my computer and I don't have the issue any more. However, I am trying to fix it on my coworkers computer and Im not having any luck. Our settings match perfectly in Acrobat, Distiller, and PDF Maker installed in Excel and Word. I don't even know what I did to fix mine.
If anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it. We are both running Windows XP and have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard edtion.
Thank you

Bill,
thanks for the reply. I think i got it. When they gave us the new computers, they installed a copy of acrobat without some of the latest updates. update 7.0.5,.7,.8, and .9 were missing from our programs. I also noticed that her create to PDF setting for microsoft office was set to standard but the distiller was using high quality. i think fixing the combination of the two may have fixed it. I am going to try and create a full report and see. I will post back and let you know if the issue is gone.
thanks again.
