Pdf files become unclear when zoomed

I read a lot like magazines, newspapers etc that are in pdf format. I save them to ibooks and read whenever there is a free time. Recently i observe that the letters become vague and unclear when zoomed. Can some of you advise a solution to this problem.

Filters fix the resolution, rasterizing the vector graphics. Try make it very large, the apply the filter to the containing layer and shrink the layer to be the desired size...

Pdf files become pixelated when filter effects are applied...

I have some pdf files in my Motion 4 project. When I uncheck the "fixed resolution" box, they pdf files look great. But when I proceed to add any filter effect like any of the Glow filters, the pdf file becomes all pixelated and looks horrible. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,

Why my pdf files become blank when i try to open them from the internet?

Everytime I open a PDF file on the internet my screen is always black/ blank

Hi andredezhon,
Please let me know what browser, OS and Reader version you are using to view the pdf files.
Try downloading the latest version of Adobe Reader from : http://get.adobe.com/reader/
and then try viewing the pdf. Also try viewing the document from a different Browser and check.

PDF files break up when scrolling down the page

Embedded pdf files break up when scrolling down the page i.e.
http://www.wight-cam.co.uk/WightCAM/HTML/2011/110321.htm

Go to the "inspector"-click on the "table" icon-then "headers and footers" where you can set the number of headers or footers you want and click/unclick "freeze". You can also do that directly from the button bar on the "header-footer" buttons

I have a problem using the "save as pdf..." command of the print panel of MS Word (lower L corner). When file has a few photos in it, the pdf file becomes huge; 7 mb Word file becomes 31 mb., on MacBook Pro with Intel Core 2 Duo processor , OS X 10.5.8

How can converting a MS Word file to a pdf make the file 5x bigger? Can someone tell me how to update the "save as pdf..." feature when "printing" a file in MS Word (Word:mac 2008, ver. 12.2.5). The problem is that using this to create pdf files gives huge files when the Word file has graphics pasted as pictures from Powerpoint, even for simple graphics and when first exported at low resolution (180 dpi) as jpg files from Powerpoint and inserted into Word.

Here's a little more info on the save_as_pdf issue. It is Word files in 97–2004 format (doc) that get 5x bigger. The conversion works fine and file size is normal if the Word file is saved in most recent Word format (docx rather than doc). Somehow MS Word can't save its own files properly in pdf format. Thanks Bill for all the frustration.

PDF file size doubles when recording to CD

XP Pro Sp3
I have old PDF files that I am trying to burn to disk for protection. The documents are one size but when I add them to the CD record program they show double the size. Example this document was 323KB in size but when placed in the recorder program it takes up 668 KB's
This is the data from the file 323KB 8/2004 Application: PScriptd5.dll Version 5.2 PDF Version 1.3 PDF Producer: Acrobat Distiller 5.0 (windows) On the properties window under General is says it is blocked to help protect this computer. I don't know what that means I am using Adobe Reader 9.3 to
read it.
I am using Sonic Record Now version 6.5 as my record software. It came with the computer in 2004 I know it is old. Grin.
I did multiple scans on it and it shows up clean. Any ideas?
Thanks
Cel

Hi there: First I apologize I think I gave the wrong answer to the question about the issue being resolved. You were right on the mark. The issue has nothing to do with the PDF file but with the burning software miscalculating.
Thank you for your time in replying to help me.

Why are my PDF files so big when I open them or when I print them out? I only see and print half of the document, didn't have any problem on internet explorer

I was trying to print something from the internet and when I did what came out was half of the document. What should have been printed in 1 sheet of paper was printed in 2 and it was only half of the document because the letters and images were too large.
I noticed that when I saved the document from the Internet to my folder the document was in half. I tried to save it again but it didn't work. I tried to fix the printer to see if that was the reason but still I continued to see only half of the document. I tried printing again but still the same thing happened.
I thought it was a problem with my printer but then I remembered that the same thing happened with other PDFs files. I then tried the same thing on Internet Explorer and when I saved the document I saved the whole document not only half of it and the letters and images where not large like when I used Mozilla. I was also able to print the whole document in 1 sheet of paper.
I don't how to solve this problem, thank you for your help and attention

Hi efacg,
Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.
If this continues to be an issue please also see [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
If there are any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask, we are here to help.

Pdf file gets huge when attached to an e-mail

A very strange problem. Yesterday, I received an e-mail with a pdf attachment that was 10MB. When I saved the attachement to a fold, it became 9.6kb. I created a new e-mail and attched the smaller saved version of the pdf. It showed as 10MB in the e-mail. The same thing happened to another e-mail pdf attachment that I received this morning. I even inserted an older pdf file from my computer into a new e-mail. Same thing. This is making it very difficult to send e-mails with pdf attachment, as they are too large for some to receive. the sender of the original e-mail is also seeing it in the sent e-mail as 10 MB.
I have windows XP Professional Version 2002 SP 3; Acrobat reader 9.3

First of all: what e-mail client are you using?
Do you use Adobe Reader to send the PDF file, or you simply attach the PDF to a message you are composing? That message, what format is it - plain text, HTML, RTF?
Anyway, I have a very hard time to understand how a file of 9.6KB can show up more than a 1000 times larger (10MB) as a PDF attachment! Does your e-mail client give the exact size of the attachment, additionally to the total size of the message?

Avoiding the 'Save PDF File As' dialog when printing to the adobe PDF printer from a service

Hello, can someone please help.
I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro installed.
I have an in house application which (among many other things) effectively monitors a directory and prints the file to the default printer. It works fine when run as an application.
I have set the defaults on the Adobe PDF printer to put the output PDF file into a directory and not to open it so it works silently without prompts.
When I run my application as a service, it brings up the 'Save PDF File As' dialog and I would like to avoid this. My impression is that if I put the right registry key in then it will work.
I do not want to do any scripting if I can avoid it.
Thanks for all constructive help given.

Thank for your help Bill, but changing settings in the distiller did not seem to work. As my application prints directly to the default application without using anything specific to Acrobat, I was hoping there was a simple way forward. A colleague suggested copying registry entries from the account I logged on as to the S-1-5-18 entry, then rebooting. This had no effect as the prompt still comes up.
Aandi, I don't have the Acrobat SDK or any experience of it.
Also I'm not sure where any code/script would sit since the application is stable and so I would rather not change it.
If it amounts to a few lines of javascript sitting outside the application then that would be of interest.

I AM TRYING TO PUT A PDF FILE IN IBOOKS, WHEN OPEN IT IN EMAIL NO OPTION TO OPEN IN IBOOKS. CAN SOMEONE HELP?

I am trying to open a PDF file in Ibooks. When I send it to myself via email and go to open on the Ipad I don't get the option to open in Ibooks. How do I fix that?

Hi johnc,
I'm sorry to hear that your file didn't convert well for you. Can you please tell me more about the PDF that you're trying to convert? Do you know how it was created? The quality of a conversion depends on the quality of the PDF, and it sounds like the file you have may not include the tagging information that is required to convert that properly into an Excel file. Would you be willing to share that file with me? If so, let me know and I'll send you a private message with my contact details.
Best,
Sara

PDF file pages missing when viewed in Adobe Reader XI

Hi All,
I have been made aware of a recent issue when viewing scanned PDF files in Adobe Reader XI. Pages are missing when the PDF file is viewed in Adobe Reader v.11.0.x though all pages are visible when file is viewed in Adobe Reader 10.1.5?
I can confirm I have checked Show large images option under Preferences -> Page -> Display, though this doesn't appear to have made a difference. I have been able to replicate this same issue on several other machines.
All machines checked and tested are running Windows 7 (64-bit).
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Never heard of such an issue. Can you share such a PDF with the forum? See http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1408375

How can I protect a PDF file to where when I am editing the file and another user opens the file, it is only a read-only file?

I work for an auditing firm and we have recently gone paperless with our audit documentation. We have our files saved on a server and multiple people can access the same file at one time. We noticed that Acrobat does not give an message notifying a user that someone else is in that file, nor does Acrobat make that PDF file a read only file when someone else is in it editing the document. Is there a way to notify someone that another user is in the same PDF file? Or is there a way to make a PDF read only when someone else is working with the document?

Hi ashleyr1936858
You can restrict editing of a pdf by setting the password, such that anyone who wants to edit the pdf would need to input that password. This would make the pdf a read-only file.
Here's a Link for more information : Acrobat Help | Securing PDFs with passwords

Can't open PDF files through shortcuts when upgraded to 9.2

Since I upgraded reader to 9.2, I cannot open PDF files from my email or any of the desktop links. Only way is
to open reader first and than click on open to search for file. Problem when most work is sent via email. Anyone
know of a fix / patch / setting adjustments?

Hyperlinks to pdf files not working when project is exported out as SWF and uploaded to server

hI all
I'm using CS5 and i have hyperlinks to pdf files in my indesign project. However when i export to SWF, although the links work locally, they do not work when i upload all the relevant folders and files and test it from a server the links to the pdfs can not be found, the error messages indicates its looking for the files on my hard drive. I have also noticed that if i copy all the relevant folders and files and exported swf to a different directory and then launch swf from there the links do not work there either.
Other than seperately uploading each pdf indvidually on to the server and then creating a hyperlink to it from the local indesign project i don't know what else to do.
Any advice much appreciated.

I have your same problem, but didn't consider uploading the PDFs and then linking to them. I'm willing to try it. Let me know if you ever found a better way, ok?
Thanks.
