PDF on web

Hi, I need to publish a PDF as an image on web. Have tried to save as JPG and then "Save for web" in Photoshop, but still get only the pdf symbol when I try to publish.

It's not clear from your short post what you're doing. When asking for help on this forum, the more details you can provide about what you are trying to do, the better the chance of someone being able to help. Are you on Mac or Windows? What version of Photoshop? How are you opening the PDF in Photoshop? What do you see in Photoshop before you save? Is the PDF just a one page document, or are you trying to convert multiple pages to separate JPEGs? What do you mean by "try to publish"? How is the publishing step being done? (It sounds like you're publishing the PDF, not the JPG you saved out of Photoshop.)
All this information is helpful, because the more you can provide, the quicker someone may know the answer.

Print multiple pdf from web site

Hello everyone!!,
I need print multiple pdf from web site (web page) to the local printer o client printer.
I have investigated : cfexecuted, java code, javascript, but i can't do it.
The idea is don´t open printer dialog box for to print.
Thanks.

It is NOT POSSIBLE (for security reasons) to do silent printing in this way. (you wouldn't want to visit a web site and have your printer start spewing out page after page of profanity, would you??)
You can, however, offer the user the choice to print and then have it print. That can easily be done by embedding JavaScript into the PDF to be printed. If you have multiple documents, you should merge them together on the server first and then send a single document.

Automize Create a PDF From Web Page

I am trying to create PDF's from a list of 100+ web pages / URLs.
I would like to automize the process as to save me time.
(I have been doing some research but I am a newbie when it comes to programing / scripting / coding)
My questions are
1) Is it possible to write a script to execute Acrobat's Create PDF from Web Page option in order to automize a long list of URLs?
Something along the lines of .bat file (reading something like)
acrobat.exe "http://www.google.com" "%CD%\GoogleTest.pfd"
acrobat.exe "http://www.yahoo.com" "%CD%\YahooTest.pdf"
2) If it is possible to script / automize Acrobat's Create PDF from Web Page can you lead me to the right direction as to what programs I need to write a script (if any) and any examples of how the script would be written would be extremely helpful
Thank you for your time

You can post your question in the forum for Acrobat Scripting or Acrobat SDK.

Errors in Export to PDF for web use - some images are lost when PDF is enlarged & in browser

I have a multi-page PDF in InDesign CS6 that I want to export to view on the web. I need the file to stay under 2MB, and I need it to be crisp and nice enough to read the type on the page (as small as 9pt type).
The errors that are occurring are the following:
On some browsers, some images will entirely not show up. Some of the missing images have been pasted into the document, some placed. I cannot think of a correlation.
When the PDF is enlarged (Adobe Acrobat X 10.1.10) to more than ~200%, there is one placed image that will mostly disappear. What I mean by "mostly" is that little bits of it are still visible, like I masked it carelessly or something. Since this is only occurring with one image it seems that it would be a problem with the image itself, yes? I'm all ears if I'm making a mistake. It is a placed .ai file with no link errors. Should I not be placing directly from illustrator? It renders wonderfully from 100% all the way up to 188%, and then if you enlarge by margins of 1% little bits of it disappear, almost a chunk at a time.
The way I've been exporting is:
File > Export > Adobe PDF (Print)
Adobe PDF Preset: Smallest File Size
Standard: None
Compatinility: Acrobat 6 (PDF 1.5)
Options: Optimize for Fast Web View
Export Layers: Visible & Printable Layers
Compression
I always change the downsampling from [100/150] to [150/225]. I usually leave the JPG image quality low. I leave both bottom boxes checked (compress text and line art, crop image data to frames)
Output
Color Conversion: convert to destination
Destination: sRGB 1EC61966-2.1
Profile Inclusion Policy: Include Destination Profile
However, after reading a few other forum questions I started trying to export as Acrobat 4 so that it would flatten. When I do that, problem #2 still persists although I didn't test problem #1. I haven't tried using Distiller, and using the "prepare for web publishing" action within Acrobat itself makes the PDF too artifacted.
At the heart of my question is this: I am a young designer at an old company that is not necessarily keeping up with the times. I REALLY want to know what the best, most efficient way to export a pdf for web viewing is. Does this exist in InDesign, outside of InDesign? Does it exist at all? Tell me what I'm doing wrong so that I can get better!
Thank you in advance.

Show Large Images is a preference inside of Acrobat which might be disabled.

PDF Portfolio - Web links do not work

Hello,
I created a PDF with web links from a Word document. The links worked correctly in the PDF. I then imported the PDF into a portfolio (Acrobat X Professional, using the Grid layout). When I opened the PDF in preview mode the links no longer worked.
I need a way to either make the links work in preview mode in the portfolio, or to have it so that when you double click on the file it opens up outside of the portfolio. Any help with achieving this would be greatly appreciated?
Thank you!

Hi,
Would you try this experiment so that we can diagnose the problem?
On your Windows or Mac desktop computer, would you open the PDF document in Reader and check the General Preferences?
Preferences > General > Basic Tools > Create links from URLs. Is the "Create links from URLs" check box selected? (It is selected by default.)
Would you deselect it, close the PDF document, and reopen the PDF document? Do the links still work in the desktop version of Reader?

How to include non web pages to the "Create PDF from Web Page" feature?

In Acrobat Pro (v. 10), when I use the "Create PDF from Web Page" feature, it works great for html pages, but it skips non-html links (doc, pdf, ppt, xls, etc). I need Acrobat Pro to convert those files and put them in the order as well. I don't see an option for this in settings. Is there ANY way I can do this? This is for an archiving purpose and I have 10,000 plus files to convert. Please help.

This is a question i'm trying to answer too. My issue is that I have a PDF file which itself contains links to both DOC and PDF files. The end result is that I need one consolidated PDF containing all the linked files (in order).
I can run the "create from web page" on this PDF file, and it'll download them, but not convert them. It just adds them as "jumbled" text to the end of the document. I need it to download, convert, and then append them.
So, as isunshine3 asked above, any way to have Adobe convert the files that it finds linked when running the "create from web page"?
THanks
Matt

Cannot View PDF in Web Browser error

Using windows XP sp3 has adobe reader 9 on it...
Installing Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro extended was trouble prone enough, but now there is more...
When trying to open a PDF in a browser window, you get the following dialog error message (sample site:http://support.apple.com/manuals/#iphone)
"The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser.
Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again."
For the cost of this program, I expected better. The above was not a problem before installing Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro extended.
Please advise.
Thanks
bob

I did a google search and found a fix that was a bunch of registry entries that worked for me:
Ted Neubauer, "Reader 9 won't open PDF from web browser" #15, 15 Jul 2008 7:47 am
It is just anoying to spend this kind of money on a piece of software and have so many problems out of the box.
Yes, I have run the updater software.
What is the phone number for adobe support?
Thanks

Opening PDF in Web Browser(IE)

Hi,
I have written a program to download PDF file. When user will click on "Download" link, PDF file should open in web browser IE itself. Currently file is opening in separate window. I am creating this PDF file run time and it is not stored in harddisk. In Acrobar Reader, I have checked the check box "Display PDF in browser". Despite this it is opening in separate window.
I have written following code:
byte abyte0[] = pdfGenerator.generatePDF(getXslFile(instancedata), new String(instancedata.requestResult.message, "UTF-8"));
httpservletresponse.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
httpservletresponse.setHeader("Cache-Control", "max-age=0");
httpservletresponse.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline; filename=" + instancedata.userId + "_" + System.currentTimeMillis() + ".pdf");
httpservletresponse.setContentType("application/pdf");
String s = new String(abyte0, "UTF-8");
servletoutputstream = httpservletresponse.getOutputStream();
servletoutputstream.write(abyte0, 0, abyte0.length);
servletoutputstream.flush();
Kindly suggest what is required to open PDF in Web browser (IE).
Regards,
Dev

I don't see anything wrong here offhand.
In your download link, you aren't using target="new" or anything, are you?

PDF for Web & Mobile Devices?

Hey There,
My boss and I recently attended an Expo for CS 5.5 and were blown away by all the new animations features for Web. We however are not in the business of creating web books, we only wanted to create a dynamic PDF for our website and then also for mobile devices like iPads, etc. However, we've discovered the animation is all Flash based and therefore useless for mobile devices. Is there any way around that? What is your suggestion for exporting useful PDFs for Web and Mobile Devices?

There’s a big difference in what you want, Joel and what the OP asked for.
For plain old vanilla PDF, you should be fine, but the OP is worried about people needing to download something for EPUB when in reality that’s less of an issue than PDF.
There are no stock PDF readers on many tablets and the ones that are there have limited or no interactive capabilities and the better ones like GoodReader are not free.
BTW, I’m not suggesting EPUB as a replacement but without seeing the actual documents in question and knowing the audience and budget, I really can’t give you a better answer.

Create PDF from Web page using Acrobat X - Page Order

I have a structured web site that is in fact Program Help The web pages are structured as follows:
index.html - Main Topic Index page with links to all topic subject index pages
topic/index.html - Topic Subject Index Page with links to all subject pages
topic/subject.html - Subject page
.....etc
Using Acrobat 5 "Create PDF from Web Page" created a perfect logical PDF page structure in the page order of of the web site. In Acrobat 5 page 1 was the Main Topic Index Page, page 2 was the 1st Topic Subject Index Page, page 3 was the 1st Subject Page, then the 2nd subject of the 1st Topic, etc. until the Topic Subjects were exhausted after which the 2nd Topic Subject Index Page and so it went on. As a result the bookmark structure was sensible. The page order was as follows:
Main Topic Contents
Topic 1 Contents
Subject 1 of Topic 1
Subject 2 of Topic 1
Topic N Contents
Subject 1 of Topic N
Subject 2 of Topic N
Acrobat X (just purchased) produces a differently structured PDF from the same HTML pages. The order is:
Main Topic Contents
Topic 1 Contents
Topic 2 Contents
Topic N Contents
Main Topic Contents (a second time)
Subject 1 of Topic 1
Subject 2 of Topic 1
Subject N of Topic 1
Subject 1 of Topic 2
Subject 2 of Topic 2
Subject N of Topic N
Question: Is there any way I can get back with Acrobat X the same page order I got with Acrobat 5?
Any help appreciated. The website is www.caliach.com/caliach/vision/help/index.html

Acrobat is using the underlying mark up of the rendered HTML page.
This may or may not provide an adequate input to Acrobat when it is noodling out how and what to tag.
I suspect you may find that, to obtain an adequately tagged PDF, you may have to capture the web page content with the create bookmarks and create tags options off.
Once you have the PDF make working copies.
Try letting Acrobat tag this already created PDF to see what happens.
You may have to manually tag the PDF.
n.b., The default read order for western language can be altered by user selections in the accesibility setup or by selection in the PDF page(s) Page Properties.
Be well...

File, create PDF, from web page, entire site...questions

I am new to adobe, is this the proper forum for Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro for macintosh? I think yes...
Created a PDF from: File, create PDF, from web page, entire site.
Is there a way to print this without the background color? If you printed from a browser, you could choose not to print the back ground color. I know exactly the color.
Is there a way to make this PDF look like the web, with no page breakes? I have tried various things, but the page breaks are always displayed.
Is there a way to create bookmarks on somthing other than the title tag in the web site? The title tag is an SEO 1 sentence summary of the page, which makes for very long book mark names.
Thanks for your help.

Mail 3.1; Save PDF to web receipts folder

When I am mailed passwords for downloaded software, I need to save such important information in a preferred place. The web receipts folder is a perfect place in this instance. However, I can't seem to get my Mail application to successfully complete the menu chore of, "Saving PDF to web receipts folder."
After repeated attempts to get my file saved as the menu item suggests, I still can't find where Mail might be saving my receipt. The program goes through the procedure as if it is working properly yet I can find no results anywhere on my computer. ( I don't get any finder warnings, given repeated attempts to save, about replacing an existing file, either.)
Now I know this is likely to be all my fault but... Can anyone shed some light on my problem here?
I was able to successfully open and view my Mail message as a PDF file. I did manage to print that PDF file (opened in Preview) to my web receipts folder. I assume from my experience that the menu item, "Save PDF to web receipts folder," has somehow been disabled.

Never got an answer!

Overwrite files BUG! Save PDF to Web Receipts Folder

In Safari, I will often want to save receipts of bank transactions. So I hit Command-P to print, then in the PDF menu button, I'll choose "Save PDF to Web Receipts Folder."
When I look in my Web Receipts folder, it has saved the file, but if there was already a file there with that file's name, the old one is replaced by the new one. I found this out the hard way, as my bank's page title is always "National Bank," and Safari uses the page title as the file name. So instead of accumulating receipt PDFs there, I merely had the most recent one.
This is certainly a bug: the Mac shouldn't be overwriting files without telling me. If it's going to save PDFs in the Web Receipts folder, then I should have the option to choose a name or approve the name that it generates from the HTML title.

Yes I agree this is an intentional bug.
Other things you can do to get around this issue:
1) Disable the "Save PDF to Web Receipts.workflow" located at /Library/PDF Services. This is at the root level of your disk and you will need Admistrator level authority to accomplish this task.
2) After you disable the workflow you could build your own without the: "with replacing" (save file) option enabled in the script. However, I believe this will not work, as you are already in a dialog box (printer), and the script will generate an error, and prompt a dialog box for you to enter a new name. I am not sure if this is the conduct, as I do not use this workflow or "feature."
3) After you disable (or just plain not use) the above workflow: Instead create a folder in your Home Directory called "Online Receipts" or whatever memorable name you like. You can place this folder anywhere.
Next, navigate to ~/Library/PDF Services (that is the folder in your Home folder, not at the root level as in (1) above. If this folder is not there, create it.
Next create and drag an alias of your "Online Receipts" folder into this PDF Services folder.
The next time you pull up a print dialog, and hit the PDF button, you will see this newly created folder in the menu. Just select it to save a PDF of your document to it. Files with identical names will be handled by the Finder's naming convention: (eg. file.pdf, file 2.pdf, file 3.pdf, etc.) and no files will be overwritten.
I hope this helps,

Save PDF to Web Receipts broken?

I hadn't noticed this, but I was trying to recreate the built-in workflow for saving PDFs directly to the "Web Receipts" folder, when I came across the fact the Automator file seems to be broken.
Under /Library/PDF Services, you will find all the workflows related to "printing" using PDFs from any app. All workflows have the extension .workflow, but not "Save PDF to Web Receipts". For that one, the extension is .pdfworkflow. I have confirmed this on both my iMac and my MacBook, both running the latest and greatest OS X.
Trying to load the flow in automator fails. Even more troubling, changing the extension to .workflow and trying to open the file gives the error:
The document "Save PDF to Web Receipts Folder.workflow could not be opened"
Any ideas when it stopped working...and how to fix it?

Sorry, i don´t know how to fix it.
For me it works.
But let me tell you, that this is NO Automator workflow. In Leopard the Automator workflow was replaced by a python script. So your attempts to open it with Automator will fail.
You may like to open the pdfworkflow by clicking on "Show Package Contents". You will find the script named Tool, that you can open with a texteditor.
Maybe you have to check your permissions. One thing you may try, to see, where exactly the script brakes:
Delete the ~/Documents/Web Receipts folder and run the pdfworkflow. It will recreate that folder and save the document there.
Will the folder be recreated?
