PDF not showing bleed

Trying to make a pdf with bleeds but my bleeds are not showing up, only crop marks. I'm using distiller for a postscript file to press quality pdf

Has nothing to do with printing.
Please post screenshots of the marks and bleeds pane of the PDF Export as well as your document set up making sure that the more info (bleed and slug) are shown.
Note that you must post them using the web interface, you can’t attach them to emails.

Have Adobe Reader not show bleed

hello. For proof reading, I'm exporting my InDesign CS3 file (that uses 3mm of bleed on all sides) to a pdf legible for the customer. Would there be a way to have Adobe Reader 8.1.2 (on Mac OS X 10.5.2) actually not show the bleed area (instead of just showing the bleed box which is achieved by checking 'show art, trim & bleed boxes' in the preferences)?
thanks a lot

You can try using this tool to remove all traces of previous version(s) of Reader:

Then, you may download the offline Reader installer from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

Adobe PDF not showing in PPD

Hi,
Does anyone know why "Adobe PDF" is no showing in the PPD section when defining a new Print Preset? At the moment i'm manually draging the PDF through Distiller, generally i can do this auatomatically through indesign, but it's all different on my new Mac.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated
Cheers

The Article is great thanks! Explains allot, and i know now that it's a widespread issue. it doesn't quite resolve my problem (although it gets the PDF PPD showing up in inDesign which is great). InDesign still won't export to distiller and produce the PDF though.
No that's cool, We have to run all Ads and documents through Distiller for the Press, export doesn't cut it it's not a huge problem as it can be done manually, but it saves so much time when it's done via InDesign.

PDF not showing certain updates in Illustrator CC ?

I've had a strange problem that happens every so often and is very annoying and time consuming. I'll be working in Illustrator CC and I save my work as pdf (with editing abilities preserved). Then when I open the file later, the last changes that I made to the file don't show in Illustrator, they are just gone, layers, changes - sometimes it is a lot of work lost.
The strangest part is that at the same time Bridge previews the updated file correctly, showing all the updates I made. And if I open the pdf in Acrobat, the changes are there as well. But in Illustrator they are not. So in the same moment I can look at the file in 3 programs but only two show it correctly.
I have no idea how this happens but it is very frustrating.
Using a Mac and CC.

When you use the "preserve editing abilities" option, you are actually telling Illustrator to embed a complete copy of the .AI file inside the PDF. It's why the file size explodes.
Illustrator will read that embededded file when you re-open the PDF, and will ignore the actual PDF data.
Everything else will read the PDF data and ignore the embedded .AI file.
So if you make any changes to the PDF outside of Illustrator, you cannot import them back in.

Embeded 3D PDF not showing up in webpage on IE8 with Windows XP

Hi,
There seems to be a compatibility problem with embedded 3D PDF and IE8 on Windows XP. The PC that is experiencing the problem runs on Windows XP Professional Edition with Service Pack 3; it also has Adobe Reader X Version 10.1.3 installed.
This compatibility problem can be demonstrated with the following screenshots.
The first screenshot shows a blank space with a small red "X" at the lower left corner which was taken when IE8 was being used. This blank space is where the embedded 3D PDF is suppose to show up.
The second screenshot shows how the webpage is suppose to look. It was taken when Firefox 14.0.1 was used to browse the same webpage.
Here is the URL for this testing page:
http://search.newport.com/?q=*&x2=sku&q2=SM-25
What can I do to have my XP computer show this website correctly on IE8? Or is this a problem for the webmaster of this website?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Peter H.

I too am having this same problem. When I contac
t Adobe the person was of no help and
I can not print any PDF files. This is so frustrating.
I can not delete it not open it. What gives???

Mail attachment (pdf) not showing properly as preview

Just recently I've received a pdf attachment that showed some (hidden) layers visible in preview. Opening it in Acrobat reader shows no problem.
Other computers and systems in the company also handle the file properly. No one else sees it the way I see it on my computer.

Sorry you're having this problem. I think it was previously reported only by Windows XP users.
When you reinstall, were you making Firefox your default browser? Some users have reported that ''not'' making Firefox the default browser was an effective workaround.
However, you may have success with this approach, suggested by a user in another thread, which appears to more thoroughly update the Windows registry:
# Open Adobe Reader / Acrobat
# Edit->Preferences
# In the Categories column click 'General'
# Near the bottom of the page click the button marked 'Select Default PDF Handler'
# In the dialog, select 'Adobe Reader XI' (or Adobe Acrobat, as the case may be) and click 'Apply'
# A Windows Configuration screen will appear. Allow it to do its stuff (takes a few minutes), then restart your computer when prompted.
Does that resolve the issue for you?

PDF not showing at actual size

I have a website mockup design (72dpi) created in Fireworks. I often provid these for client review as PDFs. However, recently, the PDFs are not displaying properly.
I've tried various ways of creating the PDFs: place Fireworks png in InDesign, open PNG in Photoshop, print to PDF from FW...
When I open these PDFs at 100% they are oversized. Why aren't they displaying at proper size? It is a problem for a lot of biz Acrobat users as they don't know the proper size to display the mockup to see them properly.
Seems like such a simple thing, but I cannot determine the resolution. I simply want the PDF to display at actual size for screen viewing, 100%. Normally, it's easier to create PDF then to publish mockup designs to the web wrapped in web pages.
Any enlightenment is appreciated.

Interesting...I don't recall seeing that pref in the past. I'm using v8.1.6 and it is there. "System setting" is 99 px/inch. And here all these years I thought my Macs were 72 px/inch but Acrobat believes it to be 99. Which also explains why at 75% they looked closer to actual size.
I changed that setting to 72 and it display perfectly. But, as you said, that setting on someone else's system is beyond my control.
Seems pretty screwy that Acrobat itself drives how a user sees a document rather then the document delivering it's actual dims/resolution. I'm simply surprised that I've not known this all this time.
It depends upon the resolution of the monitor used and the Graphics Card used in your system.
Usually it would be 72. but for example above in the Screen shot I showed my PowerBook 17" does infact use 98DPI.
I don't know whether you noticed the drop down box for Zoom level All I have shown is fit to Page but there is also fit to width along with percentages going all the way up to 200%.
If you want you can set back to 99 and change the zoom level you normally see when openning a file.

Packaged PDF not showing the navigation sidebar for individual PDFs

I've created a PDF Ebook as a Package, where individual PDFs are the chapters. My client tells me that some of the customers cannot see the left navigation panel showing all the "chapters", and therefore can only see the cover sheet PDF
I haven't been able to see if there's a setting I missed during assembly, and yet I can see the navigation panels when the file is opened in Acrobat Pro 8.1.7 and Reader 9.2.
Would this be a setting that a user needs to have turned on? Or did I not check something during final assembly and saving? I can't seem to find anything in my Acrobat Help files about this.
Thanks for any help!
David

May be that the font is not embedded in the PDF file.

Why aren't he comments on PDFs not showing up when placed in Indesign?

I'm placing some PDFs in an Indesign file (They are surveys, so they all have annotated answers in red on the PDF ) And none of the answers are showing up.
Its not a display problem since they won't show up when you export or print the pages.
Any ideas on what is going on?
Thank you !

PDF not showing images

A PDF that looks fine in Preview and Acrobat does not display images when shown in Mail and iBooks.
Any suggestions?
Regards
Craig

This is just a guess, but ID/Acrobat tend to favor JPEG2000 when encoding images, and I've heard that doesn't work for ipad readers, but if you go back and force it to use regular jpeg instead, it will.
See:
http://indesignsecrets.com/from-indesign-to-ipad-an-overview-part-2.php
for example

PDFs not showing up correctly when brought into the Ipad via dropbox.

They are perfectly fine when viewed in dropbox from my pc but when they are opened in dropbox, good reader or ibooks on the ipad most of the images are missing. The pdf is compatible for viewing with acrobat reader 8.0 and up. Any thoughts?

FOr the "Not Charging", most computers' usb ports does not have the output capability to charge the ipad unless the ipad is sleeping.
For the other issue, you may need to contact a genius, but first, you can try:
1) Press and Hold the Home and Wake Sleep buttons until the Apple Logo appears.
2) If that doesn't work, try a reset, To reset go to Settings, General, Reset, Reset.
If nether fix the problem, you can try a restore from the itunes-computer.
Hope this helps.

Pages export to PDF not showing text

I've created a fairly basic document and have exported it to a pdf document. when i view it in google docs, it works fine.
more importantly, when the pdf is viewed in acrobat, the black text seemingly turns white and becomes "invisible". i know the text is there because i can "right click" on the area and it'll find the words. my question is?
why will the pdf render properly in google docs but not acrobat reader??!
thanks,
nick

Which fonts have you used and could you give a better description of the contents of the file.
If you like click on my blue name and send me the file, I'll see if I can spot the problem.

Color PDF not showing colors

One of my users with Acrobat 8 Standard is having issues with color pdfs. The pdfs are drawings and when I open them, I see all the colors of what the original was. However, when he opens the same pdf, it only shows in black and white. This is happening on all the pdfs of drawings we have. What setting(s) do I need to make to fix his problem?

>when he opens the same pdf
Using what?
What are your current settings (in Distiller, I think) when you create?
