PDF file is missing some text while displaying on the iPad

I have sent a PDF Invoice to my customer, he called me back and said that I must be joking because half the important text is missing.
I have opened up the PDF on my computer and everything was there, so I was scratching my head... Than he called me back and said that
he also opened up the file on his computer and the missing text was there. That way we have discovered that the PDF file is for some strange
reason not displaying some parts of the text. I have checked on my own iPad trying to display it in iBooks, Adobe Reader, directly in a mail app,
everywhere I could only see a part of the text.
Can someone please explain to me how to fix this on the iPad or within the PDF itself?
Thank you.

Have you tried viewing the page at any different (even just slightly different) magnifications?
I have what may be a related problem.  I created a PDF file from InDesign's "Export" to PDF feature. (See it at http://www.mydfz.com/pot20/2046today.pdf). When I went to that web page and opened it, I noticed a problem on page 2 as follows:
The ad for "Duds-N-Suds Laundromat" should say "20, 30, & 40lb Dexter machines" between the company name and their hours. If I click on the icon to show the whole page, that space is blank. If I increase or decrease magnification the text appears. The whole page setting is shown as 86.5%. If I type that specific percentage in the box, the text appears. It is only when I use the whole page icon that the text vanishes.  If I try to access the original file on my own machine, the text in question is visible under all the conditions I tested. I couldn't get it to vanish.
I just tried to access the web version again and this time the text is missing no matter what I do!  I uploaded a fresh copy of the file but it still won't show the text. Very strange!
Evidently there is some bug in the rasterization routines but it only manifests under certain non-obvious circumstances. I grabbed screen images of the two states (visible and vanished) and will be happy to email them to anyone interested in pursueing this further.

    If an app does not behave as expected, try closing the app completely and reboot the iPad. It appears as though you have the original iPad. It helps if you list your iPad model and the iOS that you are running.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    IPAD3/IPAD2 :PDF files/ attachments  sent in an email  displayed inline ( embedded within the main email) in the message text on both my Ipad2 and Ipad three, however the same email displayed the PDF File icons/ attachment on both my Iphone and a friend’s PC. How do i get both my IPAD devices to display the PDF icons/attachments? Bearing in mind if i open the same email over the internet the PDF Icons/attachments display OK!
    Has anyone come across this? Your advice/help would be most appreciated

    This happens to me all the time.
    If is a one page PDF it seems as though it comes over already open and inline in the body of the email. Multiple page PDF files show as the PDF icon.
    I can't find any official documentation of this - other than based on my own experience with PDF attachments in my various email accounts.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 plus I create PDF files for work some are scan pdf docs. When I install Photoshop Elements 10 it DOES convert all the PDF files to Photoshop Elements-10 Docs. it even changes and shows the PSE-10 Icon. So I am alway installing PSE-10 or uninstalling it. If I send the  PDF file that has been automatically converted to a PSE-10 the person I send the file to can not open it because they do not have PSE-10. What can I do to stop PSE-10 from converting my PDF files? Don't tell me to upgrade PSE-10 I tried their on-line program and  it is too advance for a hobby photographer like myself and their Help Desk is impossible to reach.

  • HP Stream 7 The boot configuration data file is missing some required information

    I have an HP Stream 7 tablet.  When I open it up it shows a blue screen with the error "The boot configuration data file is missing some required information."  Can anyone help as I can't get into the tablet to solve the error!

    Hey @PaD2 ,
    Welcome to the HP forums.
    I understand you're unable to boot up your Stream 7 tablet.
    Try accessing the recovery partition by holding the volume down button and power button at the same time. Please excuse my ignorance, as exact information on accessing the recovery manager appears to be unavailable for this exact model. If the down button doesn't work, up should get you in.
    Once in the recovery manager you should be able to select Troubleshoot > Startup repair. 
    If the startup repair does not fix the issue I would suggest trying the full system recovery option, which you should find under Troubleshoot > Advanced.
    Thanks.
    Please click the "Kudos, Thumbs Up" at the bottom of this post if you want to say "Thanks" for helping!
    Please click "Accept as Solution" if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution.

  • Operate C# to modify PPT's hyperlink, while configuring the hyperlink's text to display attribute, the address value will be assigned as null. Anyone know this issue? Any solution?

    operate C# to modify PPT's hyperlink, while configuring the hyperlink's text to display attribute, the address value will be assigned as null.  Anyone know this issue? Any solution?
    How to reproduce the issue:
    1.Create a new PPT slide in Office2010.
    2. Insert a certain text/characters, such as Mircosoft blablabla,
    3. Insert an URL right after the text part , TextToDisplay is the “Test”,Address is the "Url".
    4. The content in the ppt is ”Microsoft Test“,here "Test" is the hyperlink which we would like to convert. Please execute the code we list below.
    5. The problem will be reproduced by the above steps.
    PPT.Application ap = new PPT.Application();
    PPT.Presentation pre = null;
    pre = ap.Presentations.Open(mFileName, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse);
    foreach (PPT.Slide mSlide in pre.Slides)
    PPT.Hyperlinks links = mSlide.Hyperlinks;
    for (int i = 1; i <= links.Count; i++)
    PPT.Hyperlink mLink = links[i];
    mLink.TextToDisplay = mLink.TextToDisplay.Replace(mLink.TextToDisplay,"url");
    mLink.Address = mLink.Address.Replace(mLink.Address, "url");
    Modify texttodisplay, the address vaule will be assigned as null. Anyone knows how to solve it?
    Does it caused by a PPT API's Limitation?

    I've tried the below code and it works, you can refer this article:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff745021.aspx
    to find that the hyperlink needs to be associated with a text range, and thats what I did in the code below with the help of the link sent by Tony.
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Application ap = new Application();
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Presentation pre = null;
    pre = ap.Presentations.Open(@"C:\Users\Fouad\Desktop\abcc.pptx", Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse, Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoFalse);
    foreach (Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Slide mSlide in pre.Slides)
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Hyperlinks links = mSlide.Hyperlinks;
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Shape textShape = mSlide.Shapes[1];
    for (int i = 1; i <= links.Count; i++)
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Hyperlink mLink = links[i];
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.TextRange range1 = textShape.TextFrame.TextRange;
    TextRange oTxtRng = range1.Find(((Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Hyperlink)mLink).TextToDisplay,After:range1.Start,WholeWords:Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoTriState.msoTrue);
    oTxtRng.Replace(((Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Hyperlink)mLink).TextToDisplay, "url");

  • 1px is missing from text, but not in the stage area

    So my issue is this. I have some text, static, arial. The letter "F" has the top bar missing so it almost looks like a t. But this only looks like this when I render. In the staging area while viewing actual pixels the F looks perfectly fine. Is there a way to fix this without making the text thicker? Whats worse is that when i do custom anti alias settings and thicken the font by 200(which is the max) it actually is thicker than some of the other texts but the to of the F is still missing....its practically bolder than the actual bold setting and its messed up....
    I tried to make sure that its positioning is not on a decimal point with no success(that includes any other layers that the text is in).
    Any suggestions on how to fix this?
