PDF text is unreadable on screen and in print-out
One of my co-workers brought to me several PDF saves of the homepage of the Chicago Tribune and an article from the Wall Street Journal. The format of the document looks normal, but a portion of the text form the Tribune page and nearly the entire page from the WSJ is unreadable. My guess is that it is just a font issue within Acrobat, however, I tried checking and unchecking the box within preferences that says to "Use local fonts only" to no avail.
Within the "Fonts Used in this Document" window there are 6 fonts listed (four for WSJ article). Five of them are true-type and have four different lines of information under each of them. The sixth font has an 'a' symbol next to and is called Courier (Embedded Subset) and underneath has the following two lines of information--Type: Type 1; Encoding: Custom. A guess I have is that this font is the problem. My question is how do I get Acrobat to ignore that font and go to something local that I have installed on my computer?
I looked at the files, but unfortunately I could not tell any more. It is definitely a font issue and it may be that the local fonts I have are not the same as the font used by the person who created the PDF. Keep in mind that just because the name is the same does not mean it is identical. I was able to go to WSJ, but not get into the article (I am not a subscriber). I will look a bit at creating the file later tonight.
The document properties show
which is the same results I got from AA9. I just don't know where the fonts are coming from. When I created a print from the CT in my normal browser, all of the fonts showed up as standard Windows fonts. When I printed from IE 10, I got the following font description:
This screen suggests that IE is trying to provide some substitution. Your file from the CT shows standard Arial fonts, but they don't display correctly. It would appear that the problem is at the creation end, but I am not sure of the problem. At least this may give you some food for thought. Sorry that I can't help more.

I cannot access Content Library in iMovie - Content Library doesn't show on the iMovie screen and is greyed out when accessed through "windows" tab at the top. Also unable to update the projects/events (a suggested solution for a similar question). I haven't had this issue before, I have always used the content library on the screen but haven't used this for about a month. How can I make the Content Library available?
Thanks so much! I am backing up the entire computer now with an external hard drive - this should be fine right? And surely if I am backing up the whole computer these projects/videos will be backed up too? I wasn't sure how to do this any other way and I am clearly not great with tech issues. Once this is done and I am sure my projects/videos are safe I will do the delete and reinstall bit. Thanks for taking the time to help

I am stuck in the big screen and cannot get out.
I hover the mouse at the top but the menu will not appear. The only way to solve this is turn off the computer. Surely there is a better way. What am I doing wrong?

How do I put a online form on the web to be filled in and then printed out
I created a pdf form with fields to be completed on our website. Once the form is completed how do I get the person to print the completed form out as it looks on the website. Also is there an option to email the completed form as it appears on the website?
Josh,
I started it in Forms Central and them kept updating and finalizing the form in Acrobat Pro. What I want is to put the form on our website so can be completed and either printed out by that person or sent to us just as the form appears on the website all filled in. Is that possible?
Thanks,

Is it possible to create a PDF with different colors for screen and printing?
I'm working on a document that features light colored text on a dark background. I'll be sending this document as a PDF to someone who will likely want to print it. Is it possible to set up the document such that it will display this way when viewed on screen, but will print as black text on a white background, without requiring any special action on the part of the recipient?
Printing a color separation of just the text color produces exactly the results I'm after, but I can't ask the recipient to do that. I need it to happen automatically any time it's printed.
I've tried setting up a duplicate text layer in black and placing it under the background layer, then setting the background layer and colored text to 'never print'. This works within Acrobat Pro, but not when I print the same document from Preview.
Is there an acrobat equivalent of a CSS print stylesheet?
Thanks.Create the document in layers with the background on a seperate layer than the text. Export the PDF with"Create Acrobat Layers" selected (it will need to be at least version 1.5).
Open the PDF in Acrobat, choose the background layer then Options>Properties>Initial State and under "print" choose "Never prints". -
My MacBook has Leopard. A printer has asked me to 'embed fonts' in pdf text. I have looked csrefully on Web but mostly out of date or Windows related.

Solution using File Text (.txt extension) as entry and JDBC as out
We need develop a solution using File Text (.txt extension) with separator, as entry(outbound) and JDBC SqlServer as out (inbound).
We have checked the documentation in the url: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm and had no success.
We defined the data type structure of file text likely the data content and structured in XI like this:
Message Mapping 1 Message Mapping 2
outbound (txt) -> inbound (txt) -> outbound (txt) -> inbound JDBC,
in Message Monitoring, showed just one message with status successfull and the target wasn´t reached ( the data was not writed in SqlServer).
We didn´t understand why the Message Monitoring didn´t show us the problem with the solution developed.
Regards,
Midervilson e Mônica Andrade.The interface does not look correct to me.
You dont need to create a text file out to send the data to a DB.
File -> Sender Agreement -> File Sender Adapter -> Content Conversion -> Integration Server -> Receiver Determination -> Interface Determination (Interface Map) -> Receiver Agreemnt -> JDBC Receiver Adapter.
You dont need to output the file for JDBC.
Install JDBC Driver for your SQLServer using following guide and use JDBC Adapter.

Welcome screen and setup appeared out of nowhere!
I have G4 iMac, running 10.4.11. Upon logging out of my user, my iMac went to the welcome screen and the setup programme, as though I had just installed for the first time!
I decided to shut the machine down and now, when I restart, I get the gray screen and the apple shows up, but then it hangs and the fans start running.
HELP!!! What should I do?Whew, we've got at the very least some Disk Corruption, occasionally this will work...
Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), if it eventually boots, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If not, "Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Tiger Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

Up graded to CS and images print out are green.
Hello,
I am using 10.4.11 operating system. I upgraded from Photo shop 7.0 to CS and all my images print out green. The printer is a Epson Stylus C88+. The images on my monitor look the same as 7.0. I do a nozzle check every day.
Does any body know why this happened?
Please help!

Hi everybody. I have recently started having problems with iCal (Version 2.05 (1069). Events that I thought I had deleted appear in Print Preview and Print Outs. Likewise Events that I have not deleted have disappeared from my calender (Month View) but appear in Print Preview and Print Outs. I see that there have been similar problems with Events disappearing especially in Month View. I wondered how print preview seemrd to be picking everything up deleted or not, and what the solution may be?. First time of Posting. I hope I haven't embarassed myself.
Hmmmm.
At the very least there must be a "com.apple.ical.plist"...iCal would not function without it.
Click on the Finder icon in the dock
Click on Go > Home
Double-click Library
Double-click Preferences
Look for a file called "com.apple.ical.plist" and remove it to the trash. -
The text goes off the screen and I can't move the screen to see what's not showing.
The text does not fit on my screen. It goes off the side and there's no bar at the bottom to move it over. I have been using Mozilla Firefox for years but last week I downloaded the new toolbar and ever since then, I've had problems like this. I tried to fix it through "zoom" but that did not work. It only made the print smaller but it still went off the screen. Anything to the far right I could not see. To get it back to normal, I had to uninstall Firefox completely off my computer last week. Everything was fine then, by using Internet Explorer. I tried again today and downloaded Firefox but the same thing happened. Therefore, I'm going to uninstall Firefox...again and use Internet Explorer. Any suggestions for this problem? Once again, the "Zoom" solution DOES NOT WORK. Help!
Hold keyboard key down for a second or two and select undock.
