Pdf with embeded auido problem

Hi,
I have windows vista home premium with service pack 2 and acrobat reader X, i have few tutorial pdfs which have embeded audio files. The audio plays but without sound. Other audio files with realplayer, windows media player and quicktime player works fine. I would like to mention here is the same file in windows xp works fine, audio in the pdf plays with the sound. Is there any security privelages which has to be enabled in windows ??? i am not sure.
It is a peculiar problem i am facing.
Thanks,
dhaataa

Vadim,
Report queries and report region use the same generic report layout. However the processing is handled by different engines. The underlying technical problem with your case is that the substitution string #TEXT_ALIGN# is not substituted in all cases for report queries. This usually does not cause any problems, but appears not to work when using Cocoon.
I'll see that we can this resolved with the next version of APEX, however when working with report layouts, you would typically use your own RTF or XSL-FO stylesheets, where this problem would not occur. The option to use the generic report layout is only included so the data can be tested independently from the layout and is not really intended to be used as the actual layout at runtime.
The generic report layout function is mainly designed to be used for report regions.

Marc

Export as PDF with embedded profiles for Grayscale images

Does InDesign CS6 export pages with Grayscale images as PDF with embedded profiles?
Possible profiles, for instance:
– Gamma 2.2
– Dot gain 20%
– Black Ink ISO Coated v2 (ECI)
Export mode:
– Acrobat 5 or higher
– No color conversion
– Embed all profiles
Test by Acrobat Pro
Advanced > Print production > Preflight > PDF analysis > List objects using ICC/Lab/Calibrated Color
[The question is not about the export of Color images as Grayscales]
Best regards --Gernot Hoffmann

I wouldn't ever use different RGB profiles and different CMYK profiles and
different Gray profiles in one doc – it's just necessary for tests.
If you had a hypothetical case where your InDesign document's assigned CMYK profile and intended output was ISOcoated_v2_300_eci and you recieved grayscales for placement with different gray profiles assigned, I think you would have to make the conversion in Photoshop if you want the grayscales to be converted to your ISOcoated_v2_300_eci output intent space.
So in this case I have a grayscale image with Dot Gain 10% assigned and you can see the 50% patch is reading as 50% in Info panel:
If set my Working Gray space to the ISO Coated profile as above and do a Convert to Profile with the Destination set to Working Gray:
The preview doesn't change but I get converted gray values—50% is now 44%:
If I place the grayscale in an InDesign doc with ISOcoated_v2_300_eci assigned as the CMYK profile, the preview won't change (you have to turn on Overprint /Sep Preview), and the converted numbers will show in Separation Preview. The preview and numbers will also be unchanged in Acrobat if you export to default PDF/X-4

WAD: Problems when exporting to PDF with embedded .swf

I'm using Web Application Designer (WAD) 7 and have created a template with an "Export to PDF" button and an embedded .swf flash file which is an Xcelsius dashboard.
What i'm trying to do is show the information I want on my dashboard and then export that to a PDF to email out to multiple users who would be interested in the data each month. If exporting to PDF isn't the best route to get a snapshot of this dashboard out to other users and there's an easier way please let me know, but here are the issues i'm having:
1) When I have the dashboard showing the information I want and click the "Export to PDF" button, the dashboard reloads as the PDF settings window pops up and gets reset back to it's initial state.
2) If I ignore problem #1 and click on 'OK' in the Export dialog anyway after selecting PDF settings, my Adobe Reader pops up but then shows a message saying "The file cannot be opened because it has no pages". Basically it doesn't see the .swf as being a component to take a snapshot of and print on a PDF. I did try adding a text component just so there was something on the template and I then get a PDF with that text component showing and no .swf snapshot.
Has anyone come up with a workaround for this? I've tried using the BEx Broadcaster with the 'Send' option but get the same results in regards to the blank page.
Thanks as always for the help!

Thanks for the reply.
The dashboard is connected to a query in NetWeaver BI to get its data. So the request of the user is to be able to adjust the dashboard to show the information they need (well say of a certain region) and then take a snapshot of that and email it out to co-workers in Group A. Then the user will adjust the dashboard to show other data (for a different region we'll say) and take a snapshot to email out to co-workers in Group B. etc and etc.
I have looked into installing a PDFCreator print driver but that wouldn't be feasible to get it on all machines in the business. I've also looked into getting it as a .jpeg which would suffice, but am unsure if there is a way to do it with script and connect that to the dashboard when a button is pushed (will look into this). This seems like a topic for over in the Xcelsius forum now.
I used the following code within the <body></body> tags of the WAD's xhtml to embed the .swf:
<object id="dashboard" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0" height="600" width="800" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" >
<param name="Movie" value="bwmimerep:///sap/bw/mime/Customer/JavaScript/dashboard.swf" />
<embed src="bwmimerep:///sap/bw/mime/Customer/JavaScript/dashboard.swf" name="dashboard" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" />
</object>

How can I create a PDF with embedded fonts (not a subset of the font) from Excel?

I need to create PDF's from Excel spreadsheets. The PDF needs to have embedded fonts but every time I create one it only has a subset of the embedded font. I have tried setting preferences in the Acrobat add in (unchecked the "Subset Embedded Fonts" option and also tried with the Subset Embedded Fonts checked but the percentage set to only 1% in an attempt to force full font to be embedded.)
I also tried opening the resulting PDF with Acrobat Pro XI but could not figure out how to add the font in.
A method to accomplish the results from either tool would be great.

Anna;
Unless you can add those fonts to your system via the Font book and then substitute them in iPhoto, you'll have to either user the available fonts or create your own pages, 8.5 x 11, in an image editor like Photoshop Elements and use them on pages that are one photo per page. Other's have done that with some success.
If you has PS or PSE create an 8.5 x 11" canvas at 300 dpi. Then you can add your photos, add text (if PS can use the text), and create your own layout.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

DE and PDF with embedded multimedia

DE crashes on XP when trying to access sounds and multimedia embedded in a PDF.
I am testing PDFs with ACS DRM in DE and looks like there are major problems with multimedia. Wave files does not play and make the system crash. Same with various video formats that were working fine with Adobe Reader 7. Swf support seems to work fine though.
Before converting all sounds and videos to swf I would like to know if there's a way to fix that!
thanks

WAV files are not presently supported but they of course shouldn't crash. We have fixed several bugs in this area for 1.5

Can I create a PDF with embedded Postscript Type 1 fonts when ordering?

I have Adobe Acrobat Professional version and can set up a Postscript file to be distilled with the proper settings for print. I often do this for professional printers. Are there settings available for book orders, and if so, can I send my own PDF through the iPhoto application somehow? The books need to have a "Prairie/Arts & Crafts" look, and they look much better using some of Postscript fonts I have than anything that came with the system.

PDF with Tomcat/Cocoon Problem !!!

Hi,
I am having problem with Tomcat/Cocoon combination for APEX PDF printing which I installed following Carl Backstrom instructions.
When a report is a region report it all works fine, but when I create a report based on a query from the reports section in Shared Components choosing report layout 'Use Generic Report Layout' I get the following error.
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: attribute-set named #TEXT_ALIGN# does not exist
cocoon://fop_post/xsl - 148:58
Cocoon stacktrace[hide]
attribute-set named #TEXT_ALIGN# does not exist
cocoon://fop_post/xsl - 148:58
I will appreciate any feedback. I saw threads related to the same issue on this forum but they ended up covering something irrelevant.

Vadim

Placed PDF (with embedded fonts) reports fonts not available!

Hi,
Can anyone tell me why Illustrator CS (I know it's old) should report Fonts missing when the PDF I have placed has definately got the fonts embedded.
The PDF was made in InDesign CS4 using the default [High Quality Print] setting. If I look at the properties of the created PDF it lists all the fonts as being embedded subsets.
I know I can get around this by outlining the text but I shouldn't have to.
Thanks
Simon Kemp

So, Illustrator will always require the fonts present and will disregard any embedded fonts?
That's pretty much it. Remember: Illustrator is not a PDF viewing program. It wants to let you edit the document. PDF is essentially a document exchange format and not really intended for editable content (beyond the extent Acrobat enables). Font designers want you to buy their products if you're going to be doing anything other than reading the text.
The link-place-flatten trick is good to have in your bag of tricks, but I am not alone in recommending you do not blindly outline all type. Aside from making it nearly impossible for an output service provider to make a possibly necessary last-minute correction, you will not get the proper hinting with very small type. Moreover, if you're dealing with a large amount of text, you'll end up with huge files.

Opening pdfs with ibooks ipad: problem

Hi,
I found that many people have this problem: opening a pdf (that's attached to an email) with ibooks, used to work perfectly.
And now it doens't anymore.
Sometimes (1 on 20 tries) it does work. Often the pdf lights up for a second in ibooks, and then disappears again.
I tried doing a reinstall as advised on many fora, but this doesn't help.
Any other ideas why this happens, and a solution?
It's a shame, cos it was such a fast way of working.
Thank you in advance.
Jan.

I have been experiencing this problem for over a month now. Seems a bug in iBooks. However, if I close the iBooks and then from email try to open the attachment from Email, it works. Having iBooks open gives this problem.

Crazy can't export PDF with same name problems

I am experiencing a a very odd problem using:
ID CS4 6.0.6
Acrobat Pro 9.4.3
After running numerous tests, I've found that if I export a PDF from ID and select it in Finder...not open it...just highlight the darn file, ID will refuse to re-export that file with the same name saying I don't have perms or the file is in use. Since when does selecting a file in Finder constitute "in use?"
I can export every other format while the file is selected in Finder.
Is this normal? I have to deselect a PDF in Finder before saving a file of the same name?
Neglected to mention:
MacBookPro running OSX 10.6.7

If running OSX 10.6.7
I think it is due to your Finder settings.
Using column view the .pdf file is generating a preview in the right column, thus it is in use and cannot be overwritten.
Try changing to list view and it is no longer in use.
Yes it is annoying when you prefer column view.

Interactive PDF with embedded pages/images.

Hi, all.
I am working on an interactive PDF and have a question.
It is my intention to provide an experience similar to that of navigating a website. I wish to have some hyperlinks that point to elements within the PDF file itself but don't wish those elements to be visible as regular pages of the document. Let me be more specific.
I would like for my document to contain embedded documents and images that would not be visible when viewed page by page using a PDF viewer. However, these hidden documents would be viewed once the buttons with the hyperlinks pointing to them were pressed or clicked.
Does it make sense ? I hope it does. How can this be done ?
Thank you in advance,
Joe.

Thank you again, George.
I understand you point. Preview is indeed very limited.
Since I am on a Mac I am not sure what PDF viewer, if any, comes standard with a default Windows installation. In any regard, is there a way to set a PDF file so that it bypasses the user's setting and asks for Acrobat Reader (or Pro) when the user tries to open it ? In this case even if the viewer had Preview set as the default PDF reader the document would request to be opened with Acrobat. Is there a way to set this up in the document preferences ?
I am reading about InDesign features to learn more about it thanks to your suggestions. Hopefully I will be able to set-up links/hyperlinks in a manner that allows me to accomplish my goals.
Thank you again,
Joe.

Acrobat 9 Pro - Will it print to pdf with embedded pdf's from Word 2007?

Hello All,
We're considering upgrading to Acrobat 9 Pro or Extended. One of our concerns is whether it will handle the following:
1. We create very large documents and we like the ability to use OLE of existing PDF documents imbedded into Word 2007 which causes a new PDF window to open up from the imbedded PDF. It also displays nicely as an icon or the cover page within Word.
2. The challenge is when printing (distilling) that master document with any imbedded PDFs, the icon or cover page is displayed, but the OLE feature goes away and does not recognize the imbedded PDF any longer; Acrobat simply treats the imbedded PDF in Word as any other page in the distilling process.
3. We're not wild about bookmarking or linking to another PDF.
Does Acrobat 9 Pro or Extended resolve this issue?

The options availible for scripted print settings are all shown in the entry for "PrintParams" object in the Acrobat JavaScript Reference. Have you looked to see if these options fit your needs? If they do, and if the script can detect which PDF requires which options, then you're in business. But if the options you need are not there, then your only option is to set the batch process to display the print dialog for every PDF.

PDF with embedded fonts prints in Courier

I created a PDF using a large Word file and jpeg pages. I bought a new font (Archer Book) for the Word file. I am using a Mac and Adobe Acrobat Pro XI Trial Version. When I created the PDF, I combined the large Word file of text and picture pages, some Word pages printed to PDF from Word, and some jpeg photos. The Archer Book is listed as Embedded Subset, Type 1, and different types of encoding in the Document Properties for the resulting PDF file. It all looks great on my screen and prints correctly from my laptop and from a computer at my house that does not have the Archer Book font installed on it.
However, when I took it to Staples and they printed it, it all came out as Courier. I cannot understand why; they said it was because the font wasn't embedded -- but according to the Document Properties, it was. I tried to use Distiller to make a new PDF, thinking maybe I couldn't just do it in Acrobat, but got this error message:
%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: –œ ‡°±· ]%%
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
I am at a total loss at this point, and of course am under a huge time crunch. If anyone can tell me what to try next, I would really appreciate it!
Thanks
Meg

In Past versions of Word, you could save the file in Postscript format. (File.ps) IF using 2007/2008, 2010/2011, 2013 don't allow saving as Postscript.
You can Drag and drop Word Files on the Icon of Acrobat in the Dock (or Start menu or where ever located), and Acrobat will process Word files into a PDF. It make take a while to do so but it will.

Unable to open pdf with embedded flash

Started with Adobe Reader XI (11.0.0.2)
Was running into problems in an app because the new reader version does not work the same way in regards to Find.
Downloaded the Adobe SDK (XI) and tried to open some of the documentation.
Recieved a message that I needed to install flash, did so, "Adobe Flash Plater 11 Active X" shows as installed (along with a bunch of stuff I did not want). Tried again to open the document and it still gives the same message.
What can I try now.
I am unable to change versions of Adboe Reader at this point as changing it would negate the problem I'm trying to solve in the first place.

For Adobe Reader XI you will need to install the Flash Player plugin; download the installer from http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player.exe
