Pdf file viewing (purple border)

hi guys , this may be a silly question , but when i save a PDF file from Illustrator and view it on a folder say in Photoshop or Illustrator itself, i get a purple/pink border on top and bottom of the design document which its very handy for identifying the file , but i know noticed it doesn not do that any longer.
this border does not interupt the desing at all and you dont see it on Illustrator when opened.
hope i make sence
any reason for this , anyone know how to do this ?
much appreciated

thanx Monika

PDF file VIEW & PRINT differences: Preview 4.2 & Acrobat 9.3

My original two-page OpenOffice document (.odt file extension) exported to PDF file format (.pdf file extension). I used Acrobat 9.3 to force the document to display both pages as continuous facing - so far, so good. I've found two issues - neither of which appear to be related to OpenOffice. The font used is Arial 10pt and larger (for headings and such).
1) PRINTING: When printing the PDF file from Preview the document size and layout is printed identically when compared to the original ODT file - GOOD! BUT when printing the PDF file from Acrobat 9.3 the margin padding is increased by 0.25 inches on all four sides. YIKES! I was able to fix this problem by getting (i.e., remove the additional padding) by resetting Acrobat's "Page Scaling" option from the default value of "Fit to Printable Area" to "None".
The good news is that saving the file within Acrobat 9.3 with the updated "Page Scaling: None" setting seems to persist - but can I be sure the proper print dimensions are preserved when this PDF file is printed from a Windows platform? Does anyone know why Acrobat increases the margin padding like this?
2) VIEW: I cannot get Preview.app to display the PDF file with continuous facing - only one page at a time is displayed even though View > PDF Display > Two Pages is selected!?! Acrobat 9.3 displays the document correctly with both pages. Any ideas why this may be and how to fix Preview to display both pages upon opening the document?
A minor sub-issue here is that Acrobat 9.3 on Mac OS X seems to use a display font that isn't truly Arial - the display of many characters' line weights are uneven and the document has decidedly Windows-ish look to it. Preview does a much better in displaying the document in true Arial. Fortunately, the true "Arial-ness" of the document in print format is not noticeable once the padding problem was resolved (see above).
I'm mostly concerned about the PRINT variance - I intend to publish/distribute this PDF document (a technical white paper) and many more like it to 1000's of clients but I have no control over which "VIEW" tool they use. Net/net: This unwanted 0.25 inch additional padding really does take away from the visual esthetics of the document - I've shown this variance to several people and we are in 100% agreement on this.
TIA ---

Glad it helped; (for any nit-pickers out there I should have typed 8.2.2, sorry).
There are others with similar issues:-

PDF files viewed in Safari or downloaded through Safari: Text appears as black and gray boxes

Hi, a client of ours is having issues viewing PDFs on her home computer. When she views them in browser OR if she saves them through the browser and opens them, she gets the same result. All text (it is an uncommon font being used) shows up as boxes:
The error is occuring on OSX 10.6.8 using Safari 5.1.10
The PDF file is being saved out through Word
Client does not have Adobe Acrobat Pro
Is there anything that can be done to get this to display properly on Snow Leopard / in Safari?
Please let me know if you need additional details about the situation, and I'll get them from the client.

Remove any AdobePDFViewer plugins from /Library/Internet Plug-Ins, restart, and the problem should be gone.

Opening a pdf file automatically opens last 13 pdf files viewed

I use Adobe Acrobat a lot and for some reason, I opened a pdf document yesterday and the last 13 files I viewed automatically opened. I rebooted my computer and it still does the same thing.
Does anyone know how to switch off this automation?
Appreciate anyone's feedback.
Sincerely,
dd1atslb

Do a Get Info on one of the PDF files - select the file (click it once), then press Command-I (Get Info in the File menu).
In the Get Info window, about half-way down is an item "Open with:" - set the pulldown menu in that section to "Preview".
If you want to make that change to all PDFs, then click the "Change All..." button.

.webloc files being created from .pdf files viewed in Exchange 2003 webmail

I have a person here that when she views a pdf file through an exchange webmail account, it then turns into a .webloc file and is no longer useable. She is using one of the newer MacBook Air computers.
I don't have the notebook here in front of me at this time.

No updates, we have a feeling it started with a corrupt adobe file on the network. All clients that opened this one document seem to be having this error now. Does anyone know what this error means:
%%%%[ Error generating pdf file. Please retry with these features turned
off: optimize CompressObjects ]%%%%
Error 32 relocating files.
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another
process.
How do I turn off : "optimize CompressObjects"
Thanks.

Searching PDF files viewed thru Safari

I know I can view PDF files in Safari on my 3GS but is there a way to search them without having to download them onto the phone?
Thanks,
Scott

No, as all you have is a viewer of PDF's not something that can interpret content, and create a searchable index.
And you cannot save to your iPhone in ay case - it cannot store files other than those attached to emails, or those in the Photo library.

Pdf file view in report builder 10g

I store pdf file in database 10g using webutil_doc form ,now I need to view this file in report builder 10g is it possible

By all means feel free to post your question as often as you like!
In webforms DDE runs on the middle tier; it might do what you want against your local OC4J now, but it surely won't open a thing when you run it against an application server.
Maybe you should enlighten us with your requirement, maybe there is a better solution for your problem.

Can't download/view "some" pdf files.

I once had Adobe Reader which caused some problems. I moved it to trash. I also trashed the Adobe Reader Internet Plug-in in the Library. I still can't open some pdf files (e.g., bank monthly statements). A window opens showing the statement (which should be pdf), but when I try to save: File>Save, I get a window that opens that includes: "Export As: Statement.html" and "Format: Page Source." The Format selection feature opens a pulldown menu that allows "Web Archeive" as the only other choice.
My Library Plug-ins still show :
Is there anything else here that I need to delete? How is it that I can still download some pdf files, view them, and save them? This problem is happening on the monthly statements for a couple of financial institutions and not others!

This is so strange. I had also posted the same issues to my financial institutions and one of them just responded:
". . . this issue began with an update for Preview from Apple. We have discovered a work-around. If you Ctrl-click on the statement you would like to open (ex. January 2012), and choose "Open Link in New Window", it should open the way you are used to."
This worked! After Ctrl-clicking the window, it opens another window that now allows saving or printing the file as pdf! I can't believe Apple is leaving these issues hanging there.

Viewing pdf files side-by-side in Preview.app

I was wondering if Preview allows two PDF files viewed side-by-side like Adobe Reader. That is, under Adobe, when you have two PDF files open, you can go to Windows->Tile->Vertically to place two PDF files side-by-side for easy viewing. I know you can always adjust the size of the Preview window to view the two files side-by-side, but I was just wondering if there is just a button that I can just easy accomplish what adobe can do.
Thanks,
Arthur.

Hi anandkulthia,
Welcome to the Support Community!
PDF files can be viewed as attachments on your BlackBerry® Curve™ 9360 smartphone but native PDF file viewing is unsupported. You may be able to find a 3rd party PDF viewer application in BlackBerry App World™ storefront that might help with this. http://bbry.lv/bM0QK5

Why has adobe reader stopped reading the pdf files on external SD memory?

I have Samsung not 2 with external sd memory that I stored all my pdf files into it , I haven't had any problem with using Adobe reader for reading all files from my sd memory but for unknown reason I can't see all pdf files from sd anymore. In order to reach the files ,I have to use the folders view tab in the adobe reader instead of all pdf files view .
Thanks a lot for any feedback.

On Android OS 4.1 - 4.3 (Jelly Bean) or older, Adobe Reader for Android version 11.2.x has a known defect in the "All PDFs" view. The All PDFs view does not show the files and folders on an external SD card. A workaround is to use the Folder View instead of the All PDFs view. We have fixed the defect and plan to include the fix in the next release of Reader for Android.
On Android OS 4.4 (KitKat) only, neither All PDFs view nor Folder View shows any files or folders on an external SD card. Reader cannot save any changes to the files on an external SD card, either. We are still working on fixing the problems. In the meantime, please copy the files from your external SD card to your device's internal storage (e.g. /storage/emulated/0/Documents/...) using a File Manager/Browser app or use a cloud storage service (Acrobat.com, Dropbox, Google Drive, etc.) to store files. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Preview troubles with PDF files?

Until recently, Preview had opened every and any PDF file. Now, I receive the following message.
+Multiple files are bound together in this PDF Package.+
+Adobe recommends using Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat version 8 or later to work with documents contained within a PDF Package. By updating to the latest version, you’ll enjoy the following benefits:+
+• Efficient, integrated PDF viewing • Easy printing • Quick searches+
+Don’t have the latest version of Adobe Reader?+
+Click here to download the latest version of Adobe Reader+
+If you already have Adobe Reader 8, click a file in this PDF Package to view it.+
What's going on?
Please help!

If you want to use preview always as the default PDF file viewer then follow above tip. And, you might see a button 'change all...' you might want to click that too to make it the default viewer.

3D PDF Files

Does anyone know if there is or if anyone is developing a 3D PDF File viewer. My iPad can do everything I need out on the road except for this. I have 3D CAD files of machinery sent to me from my head office in Spain to show customers but have to take my laptop to show them. If anyone from Adobe reads this please help I sure I'm not the only who would benefit from this app.
Cheers

Hi - We at Tetra 4D are working on a 3D PDF Viewer for iOS and are very interested in hearing how you would use it. We have the core technology required to support both an iPhone and iPad solution that would including viewing a 3D PDF, but we have not figured out what the UI would be like and what sort of data the users would want to view.
There is also complications related to Flash, javascript and XFA PDF Forms that are still unanswered. Would these be a requirement of the solution? Would you like the app to function like Acrobat Reader. What are you thoughts. email me at [email protected] as i would like to hear them. If there is enough of an interest, i plan on hosting a collaborative scoping session, were i would status the technology, what the vision is, and then have a public discussion on what features would be value added based on users and the operating environments.

How to view aspx PDF files in Safari 4.0.3

Hi,
Using Safari 4.0.3 on os 10.5.8. I'm trying to view PDF files that are supposed to be viewed and editable within the browser (this is how the site works on a pc using internet explorer). When I click the relevant icon on the site, the site asks me if I'm sure I want to view that file (this is normal), and I click accept. Then Safari simply downloads the aspx file into the downloads folder. To the extent I could open the aspx manually using Reader (I can't), it wouldn't help anyway because the file is meant to be edited within a web browser, and within the pdf there are options to "save," "save and close," etc. I need to be able to open and view this file from within Safari.
I have the latest Adobe reader and made sure the settings allowed for opening of PDFs from the internet.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

I concur with Kirk Olson1's comment above, and have been unable to solve this 'til reading this post.
Change the .aspx extension of a saved file to .pdf and presto, Preview opens the doc for reading without complaint. This may not solve the problem the user has with editing the file within their browser. But the .aspx file, without a doubt, is in fact a file of "some" sort that is readable by Preview. As to the properties of editing the file, I can't speak to that. Since I am using this to read and save my bank statement, I would hope that the ASPX file is a signed document that can't be edited without the change being detectable... otherwise, what purpose is served by introducing a new filename extension ASPX for PDF files???
I've had the same "Browser can't view/open ASPX file" problem under Mac OS 10.5.* and Safari and Firefox. A bank provides me with "PDF" files (so they say) that download (to view, or file-save-as) with the .aspx filename extension. Firefox 3.5.* doesn't handle them. I've not downloaded Adobe products to my Mac and have avoided doing so because I don't want Adobe mucking with the way Preview works, etc.
In an experiment, I am unable to coerce Preview to open a copy of the same file while it had the .aspx extension (via Ctrl-Click the aspx file, Open_With, Enable All Applications to Open). Preview just sits there without opening the file, no error dialog, and I don't see any telltale warnings in the console log either. The same file, with a filename extension changed, no problem opening and viewing.

How to view PDF files like a flipping magazine?

Hi, I am new here. I didn't know if it is the optimum catagory for my question, I hope you guys will help me.
In brief, I want to view PDF files like a flipping magazine. You know, just the same flipping effect that ibook did on ios. Adobe reader is the only choice to browse PDF on computer for me. It's kind of bothering and annoying now.
So, any ideas for that? Plus, my computer runs on win7 64bit.

This is also a good site: http://www.issuu.com/ You can sign up and use it for free or you can upgrade(for a price) to make custom changes (like background color, button color, etc.) You can also embed the html code into your website if you would like someone to view it there. Good luck!
