PDF Rendering in Google Chrome [From indesign file with Placed Illustrator files]

I have recently run into problems with files that have been output from Indesign and contain placed Ilustrator files. While the PDF, if downloaded is totally fine [and it views fine in other browsers] when viewed in Chrome it seems to erraticly drop some but not all layers. I realize this is an Chrome issue but I'm curious if anyone else has run into this and, if so, if there is an obvious workaround...
Thanks!
David

Well that would be ideal, I agree, yes, but I'm talking about collection of documents that I produce that people view all over the world on our site -- I can't control how they view them and while I assume Chrome is still a minority browser it would be great if I could workaround this issue [without using rasterized versions of the images in the original Indesign file.]

Packaging an InDesign document with Placed Illustrator Files which contain PLACED GRAPHICS!

I've got an InDesign document 215 pages long. Each page contains a placed Illustrator document... and each Illustrator document contains a placed TIFF.
When I package the InDesign Document the Illustrator files are gathered into the new location, but InDesign does not gather the TIFFs. I need to get this material to the book designer, but relinking 215 pages is going to be a very risky and time consuming process--one that will have to be done OVER and OVER again as the project moves from one location to another. Can anyone recommend a solution? Why doesn't InDesign look for nested files?
Does anybody understand what I'm talking about?

The reason behind link (.psd in layers) means in the future it can be edited.
If the person receiving to package needs to edit the layers of a PSD placed in an Illustrator file, then yes you would have to manually include the layered PSDs. But if it's just a matter of ensuring full res and color managed output downstream then saving as PDF does that and preserves the links to layered files locally. So if I save as PDF trash a link and reopen the PDF in Illustrator it will look for the link:
If you save as .ai with the links embedded, the users downstream would be able to unembed and edit a flattened version of the placed art.

Dynadock u3.0 latest drivers prevent Google chrome from connecting to internet

I am using the Dynadock u3.0 on a Toshiba u845w-s400 and a 17R Dell. Both have Win 7, 64bit. When I initially let the windows find the drivers and figure things itself, Google Chrome worked just fine with Dynadock. The computers told me that I should install the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website and I did as suggested. After that, Chrome stopped working on both computers. Google Chrome opens up but when I type an address, it never executes. It just tries to load the page with nothing and then eventually gives up. Firefox and IE work perfectly fine with no other issues associated with printers or two external monitors or sound. I do not know what to do. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Chrome with no luck. I generated new user folder under Chrome and that did not work either. I even rolled computers back to a previous date and reinstalled dynadock drivers with no luck. I would really appreciate any help on this matter as I have to use Chrome.

Custom Metadata panel to show linked graphics from InDesign files?

Hello all,
I'm looking to create a custom Metadata panel to show linked graphics from InDesign files. I'm not even sure if this is possible. Can someone please point me in the right direction? I figure if you can see the fonts used in an InDesign file, you should probably be able to pull the links, right?
Thanks for any and all help!

Have you tried trashing the prefs? See Replace Your Preferences
And of course it's essential that the links be up to date.

Cannot overwrite PDF when exporting to Acrobat from InDesign CS6

When exporting to Acrobat Pro X from InDesign CS6, there are times when I want to overwrite an exising file but I get an error msg that the file is in use (it is not--this even happens when I have closed the file and quit Acrobat) or i don't have permission. In the Info panel at the Finder, i see that "myusername (ME)" does have permission to read and write this file. As a test, I also changed the permissions for Admin and Everyone to Read & Write, but that did not help. I've checked Preferences in both InDesign and Acrobat Pro anc can't find a relevant setting.
To save the file with the same filename as the pre-exisitng PDF, I have to close the pre-exisitng PDF and move it to the trash.
I have no problem overwriting a PDF document from Acrobat. This only happens when I am exporting from ID.
I am on a Mac running the latest version of OSX.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Carol Gunn

Make sure that the PDF you are trying to overwrite is not selected in your finder. I've found that if it's selected in the finder then the preview tricks Indesign into thinking the file is busy

HELP! Make batch PDF's or Batch package from multiple files.

Hi, as the title suggests, I need to find a way of automating the creation of either PDF's from a bunch of Indesign CS6 files. Based on a Macintosh and CS6.
History
We make a magazine every month and its files are exported to a certain standard PDF's 1.3 for the printer. This way the transparencies are unflattened. I need the PDF's again for a digital application. it can't handle 1.3. If I could make these as 1.4 my problems would be solved. Alas I need to find a way of batch processing these.
Scenario:
50 folders each containing 1 x indesign file.
Need to open, ignore dialgoue warnings, export pdf to folder, close the file, move onto the next folder and then do the same.
A bit like Apple's Automator.
Or the other idea...
Open up the folder, package the folder, close the file and move onto the next folder.
I know this is a big ask, but wondered if this was possible?
My only other option is...
I have 180 PDF's in 1.3 format, can I change the file format to 1.4 and then save? I thought Apples Automator would do this but it doesn't.
All help is massively appricated.

Installing google-chrome from AUR broke sound in chromium

Hi,
I installed google-chrome to watch netflix yesterday and since then, chromium sound is broken. This isn't just with flashplugin, I can't even play mp3 files from my hdd using chromium. I have since uninstalled google-chrome but that's made no difference. Any hints of where I should start with troubleshooting? I couldn't find anything on the forums or Google.

I'd try one then the other then together with first installation. Flash was broken last year I was reading somewhere. Try searching the forum.

HELP! - Things disappear from Indesign files!!! (images, boxes, lines, logos etc)

Things disappear from my indesign files!!!!
Images, boxes, lines logos, other design elemtents will be missing from a page when I open indesign. I restore the same file from time machine yesterday! and all the elements are on the page (it is fine).
The only thing I have done to the file the morning is to copy and paste a line of text from excel on to a different page of the file.
Please help!

Hi P
I have found another indesign file with the same problem!!!!
Its a text box this time!
Luckily its just a spread with a couple of words saying what needs to go on the spread when I come to design it.
See below how it should look
and how it looks now - with the 2 text boxes disappeared
and here's the layers panel - a node appears in the centre of the spread when I click the item in the layers panel

How do I remove google chrome from my IPAD air

I have a pop-up ad for Battery Doctor that has frozen google chrome. I do not want to click on the "OK" link on the ad. The url associated with the ad is http://secureandroid.mobi, which does not work. Is there a way to remove google chrome?

Give your device a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. You'll see a silver apple. Let go of the buttons and let it reboot. Then once it restarts, to delete chrome, you can hold your finger down on that icon until they all start to wiggle. you'll see a white X in a red circle.. Tap on that and follow the prompts and you can delete chrome.
But if you don't want to delete it, you can go into the settings and see if you can remove chrome's history and cache, which should remove that popup that's bugging you.

Are there any browsers for Mac other than Safari and Google Chrome that are better with adobe flash for my Macbook 2009?

On Safari Adobe Flash freezes at times on popular Flash chatroom I visit and on Google Chrome when I try to type the typing is laggy delayed. Adobe Flash needs to be fixed in Safari and possibly other Browsers, and Google Chromes html5 or whatever flash replacement their browser uses ***** on older hardware.

Go for Safari always, you will have more advantages than any other browser. You can safely install the Adobe Flash pluguin, it will install as pref pane in your System Preferences. From there you can limit its access, block sites for storing info in your mac.
Under the advanced tab of the Flash Player in System Preferences, check “Notify me to install updates”, so you are always up to date (feel free to check out any update directly form the Adobe website to be safe).
Steve does't want to allow Flash for iOS due to security issues (long story). But it's OK for mac, if you keep an eye on it.
Google's Chrome its decent, but you know, it's Google. I will prefer to take the advantage of the Apple's ecosystem, like syncing all Safari content and passwords with iCloud, to keep using it in your iOS devices. You can have an open page in your mac, and go to your iPad and continue with the same page.
Also you can find some useful Safari extensions that will trick the websites to load an HTML5 version of the video instead of flash (like if you were on an iPad).

Compared to google chrome, when using firefox with fb, it is choppy and so slow to load new tabs and general info. Google is by far superior wish you could make ff the equal as I use both simultaneously

I use google chrome and firefox at the same time, logged on to different accounts in fb, google chrome functions smoothly, opening new windows or tabs or even just loading is quicker, firefox fills like it is working to hard, like pulling teeth, new tabs are slow to open, new windows are slower, just loading fb is slower, the whole experience is extremely choppy. Even when just using firefox alone, it is extremely choppy, not really sure how to explain it. It used to be the equivalent to goggle chrome and my browser of choice.

It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.
