PDF from PostScript file with hyperlinks/bookmarks

Is there a way to include hyperlinks and bookmarks when printing to Postscript file.
Direct Export to PDF creates a huge file size so I need to go the PostScript/Distiller route.

Would it not be possible to use the famous Acrobat Replace Pages featurebug/bugfeature here? (Hyperlinks on, and bookmarks to pages do not get replaced when you replace those.)
Something like:
1. Export to PDF.
2. Print and Distill.
3. Replace all pages in the document from step 1 with those from step 2.
4. Done.

  • How to create PDF from text file with specific layout?

    I wanted to create the pdf from text file in specific layout - Landscape orientation and JIS B3 Page size while at Adobe Acrobat Pro.
    In past, I could do a right click on a text file (desktop area) and select print to print out the document into .pdf BUT only if I set the Adobe PDF to Landscape and JIS B3 Page size BEFORE.  And I could only do 15 text documents at once.
    I wanted to see if I could do the create the pdf from text file with specific layout in Adobe Acrobat without having to go to Control Panel to preset the Adobe PDF to specific layout at every time.   I would have to set Adobe PDF back to normal layout after I'm done with these pdf print outs.  I do lots of pdfs in normal layout.  Sometimes I would forget to do that.
    So, How do I do that?

    No such luck.  It would output the contents in letter size even in JIS B3 Page layout at MS word. 
    Is there a script or action where I could set the orientation and page size before creating PDF on these text files?

  • Can I make PDF from xlsx file with Acrobat 8.0 professional?

    I'm using Windows 7 Professional (32-bit OS) with Microsoft Office 2007 Basic and have Acrobat 8.0 Professional. Newly installed on replacement computer (deactivated and reactivated license). Don't see PDF icon in any Microsoft Office software. Got great help in getting 8.0 added as a printer devise at SevenForums.com. But when I try to print (since I don't see the PDFMaker icon I'm going via PRINT), it gives me an "Error Printing" message. That got me to thinking and wondering if I can create a PDF using 8.0 Pro to convert these new style MSO file tags (xlsx, docx, and such)? When I tried to UPDATE, message said "There are no updates available at this time." I really don't want to update Pro to the 8.3 anyway mainly because when I had previously updated to 8.3, stuff just got a bit whacky. Any suggestions? Thanks for feedback.

    Thank you Dave and Bill for feedback. I know that I'm using older technology with newer technology but for now that's what I've got to work with. I knew Acrobat would eventually stop supported AA8, so I've saved various update patches throughout the years. My earliest is AcrobatUpd814_all_incr.msp. Wondering if I can get earlier upgrade patch because am getting the below error message. Also, via periodic backup's I've noticed that I do have a lot of *.rtp (A_AcroForm_api_811.rtp and M_ACROBATPROFESSIONAL_8_0_HOMEPAGE_html4_810.rtp). Can I use this some how if I cannot find the earlier upgrade patches? Thanks, I know long shots.

  • Create many thousands PDFs from Word files with VBA

    Possible in VBA ?

    You can use the 'Action Wizard' in Acrobat to convert a folder of word files to pdf.

  • Creating PDF from multiple files results in file name AND chapter name both appearing in TOC.

    And all the bookmarks in that chapter nest directly under the file name. I would rather have just the chapter title appear with no file name in the TOC and the chapter bookmarks nested under that.

    Hi tekwrite1955,
    This is an expected behavior. When you create a pdf from any file it will list the filename in the TOC.
    You have to manually edit the bookmarks.

  • How do I print to a postscript file with InDesign CS6 without both extensions, .indd.ps?

    How do I print to a postscript file without an .indd extension in InDesign CS6? I choose Print, choose a print preset from my print shop and Save. The first time I tried it was blank (the Hide Extension was checked), so I tried to save and got a dialog box that said it cannot be saved as an .indd file (duh), to choose both or .ps. I chose .ps and it was fine, but every time I postscripted it gave me this dialog box until I unchecked Hide Extension. After I did that, every time I postscript it automatically saves both extensions. Not a big deal but it is annoying. I just want it to end with .ps like it used to. Any ideas on how to fix this?
    Thanks!!

    I have no idea but I am incredibly curious...why are you doing this?
    Printing to postscript is a completely archaic workflow. Export to PDF
    instead.

  • Exporting a PDF from keynote without losing hyperlinks

    exporting a PDF from keynote without losing hyperlinks
    anyone have any ideas why it doesn't export the hyperlinks to the PDF?
    i only have PDF reader on my machine, not the full PDF creator

    Or, better than that, export the PDF from InDesign as PDF/X-4!
    By default, Acrobat and Reader use overprint preview when displaying PDF/X-4 files. Plus you have the benefit of full color management and not having transparency ruined by premature flattening.
    One other note. Other than for the fairly common practice of overprinting black text over colors to avoid halo effects due to registration, one should be exceptionally careful in using overprint. Trapping, the other good, justifiable use for overprint is really best performed by the RIP. Most modern RIPs provide for automatic trapping. Overprint should absolutely not be used as a “poor man's transparency,” especially in conjuction with spot colors. With the advent of real transparency in the Adobe imaging model and hence in Illustrator, InDesign, and PDF, there is no good reason to use overprint hacks anymore to simulate transparency.

  • Create multiple PDFs from multiple files

    Hi everyone
    I'm trying to use the "Create multiple PDFs from multiple files" function in Acrobat 9 Pro (version 9.4.6) to create about 100 PDFs from InDesign CS5 files. Theoretically this would do the trick for my purpose. BUT: When running the function, it does not use the CS5 InDesign (version 7.0.3), but tries to open the files with InDesign CS3. Of course this does not work. We, as a professional working agency, have installed CS3, CS4 and CS5. Even with making the InDesign CS3 .app invisible an pushing it into the garbage bin during the process did not work. Acrobat still wants to access InDesign CS3. It is not possible to downgrade the files to CS3 files, for there are special (i.e. interactive) functions which only work in CS5. It would be more work than creating the PDFs manually, anyways.
    Does anyone have similar issues? Any ideas how to solve the problem?
    Thanks in advance.
    Thinka

    OK, cool, I found one, which seems to work just fine.

  • Create PDF from Multiple Files Error

    Running Acrobat 8.1.2 and InDesign CS3 8.0.2
    When trying to create a PDF from multiple files, I am getting an error with each file as it is opened by Acrobat to create the PDF file. The error reads:
    Invalid value for parameter 'using' of event 'exportFile'. Expected PDFExportPreset, but received "Standard".
    The files are also left open in InDesign afterward instead of being closed. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?
    Thanks.

  • Problem creating pdf from multiple files

    Hello,
    I'm running Windows XP SP3 with Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.2.1.  When I try to create a one pdf from multiple files in Adobe Standard 8.2.1 the application just closes.  The two files I'm trying to combine into 1 pdf file are word files.   I'm able to create a single pdf of each word file by opening them separately in word and sending them to the acrobat printer.  I've tried combining other files also, but had no luck.  Windows events doesn't log anything under applications and no error message pops up when the application closes.
    Anybody have any ideas how to troubleshoot this issue or what could be causing the applicaton to just close? 

    I've read many discussions about Acrobat and problems with server files, with the general solution being what you are doing... copy the files to a local hard drive

  • How to output a postscript file with .ps extension name in jsp?

    Hi,
    I could use a servlet to output a postscript file with .ps file extension name. But I tried to do the same with jsp, for some reason, jsp always outputs a file with .jsp extension name though the content is postscript. Could anyone help me on this? Here is my jsp code:
    <%@page contentType="application/postscript"%>
    <%@page pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>
    <%@page import="java.util.*" %>
    <%@page import="java.io.*" %>

    <%
    response.setContentType("application/postscript");
    String corresId = request.getParameter("Id");
    corresv.setCorresId(corresId);
    PrintWriter output = response.getWriter();
    output = corresv.getResult(output);
    output.flush();
    %>
    In the bean corresv:

    public void setCorresId(String s) {
    this.corresId = s;
    public PrintWriter getResult(PrintWriter output) {

    String str;
    while ((str = in.readLine()) != null) {

  • Is it possible to joing files with chapters bookmarks WITHOUT NEEDING transcoding?

    Is it possible in FCPX to joing files with chapters bookmarks at the beginning of each clip (clips and project propieties the same so no need to render) and then exporting the project as one file WITHOUT NEEDING transcoding? Simply I want to join homogeneus files and place chapter marks inbetween. Or any program that does this? thanks

    I don't think you there is a command to do what you are asking automatically for a bunch of clips, but FCP X supports chapter markers. You just have to add them in the timeline.
    If the project settings equal the clip settings and the export settings, there should be no transcoding involved.
    However, I believe that a simpler solution can be achieved (and this one is guaranteed to do no transcoding).
    Download and install QTCoffee (a free download from http://www.3am.pair.com/QTCoffee.html)
    Open a terminal window, type "catmovie -o mymovie.mov -auto-chapters "
    (without the quotes but with the trailing SPACE; use the name you want to give the new movie instead of mymovie.mov)
    Drag the movie files into the terminal window. Press ENTER.
    Boom! (couldn't resist :-))
    p.S.: By default this will place the newly created movie in your home folder (or on whatever is the active directory in the terminal shell at the time)

  • Load data from a file with multiple record types to a single table-sqlldr

    Can someone help in loading these lines from one file with only two data stores(not 2 separate files) using File to Oracle(SQLLDR) Knowledge Module.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately the IKM SQLDR doesn't have the "when" condition to be wrote at ctl file.
    If you wish a simple solution, just add an option (drop me a email if you want a LKM with this)
    The point is:
    With a single option, you will control the when ctl clause and, for instance, can define:
    1) create 2 datastores (1 for each file)
    2) the first position will be a column at each datastore
    3) write the when condition to this first column at the LKM in the interface.
    Does it help you?

  • I just started a free trial of the Adobe XI product that allows me to create an editable PDF. I'm done creating the form and ready to export it. When I click Export PDF from the File menu, it says Adobe encountered an unexpected error. What am I doing wro

    I just started a free trial of the Adobe XI product that allows me to create an editable PDF. I'm done creating the form and ready to export it. When I click Export PDF from the File menu, it says Adobe encountered an unexpected error. What am I doing wrong?

    Good to know  — there is no such application as "Adobe XI".
    "Adobe" is the name of the company.
    "XI" is indicative of the use of either Acrobat XI or Reader XI.
    Neither Acrobat XI Pro (for which Adobe provides a free, fully functional 30-day trial) nor Adobe Reader XI (the free to download and use PDF viewer that Adobe provides) have  an "Export PDF" entry under "File".
    "Export PDF" only is present in Adobe Reader XI over on the right on the "Tools" panel.
    The "Tools" panel provides a way for a user of Adobe Reader XI to connect to various By Subscription online services (gotta pay eh).
    Export PDF is one of these. A subscription lets you send a PDF file to the online internet service (aka "cloud" service). The service then exports to a supported file format (Word / Excel / ...) and the user selects / directs where the output file is to be saved on the user's local machine.
    Of course to use any of the online subscription services one must have an active (paid up in full) subscription to the service.
    So ---- As described the puzzle pieces don't fit eh.
    What specific Adobe (the company) applications are you using?
    Acrobat XI Pro? Adobe Reader XI? Both? 
    Be well....

  • Importing From Flat File with Dynamic Columns

    HI
    I am using ssis 2008,i have folder in which I have Four(4) “.txt” files each file will have 2 columns(ID, NAME). I loaded 4
    files in one destination, but today I receive one more “.txt” file here we have 3 columns (ID, NAME, JOB) how can I get a message new column will receive in source. And how can I create in extra column in my destination table dynamically …please help me

    Hi Sasidhar,
    You need a Script Task to read the names and number of columns in the first row of the flat file each time and store it in a variable, then create a staging table dynamically based on this variable and modify the destination table definition if one ore more
    new columns need to be added, and then use the staging table to load the destination table. I am afraid there is no available working script for your scenario, and you need some .NET coding experience to achieve your goal. Here is an example you can refer
    to:
