PDF/X export missing

Hi there, in the current version of Pages I am missing the "Print / Save to PDF/X"- Option which is essential for creating documents for professional printing. I was able to use it in previous versions - is there any way to get that funcitonality back?

Walt
Can you run a full test in your ColorSync please, adding in bleeds etc.
I still am having all the old issues.
1. Reported unrepairable ColorSync bad profiles
2. Inability to change the name of the newly created profile
3. Document printed to pdf using the profile does not obey settings
Both images are greater than 300dpi but Acrobat Pro reports the overlapping transparent section is 144 dpi despite the 300dpi setting in ColorSync.
Acrobat Pro also reports the PDF/X is non-compliant.
I have examined the resultant pdf in detail in Preview, Acrobat Pro and Photoshop and the bigger pixels in the transparent overlap are clearly visible and confirms the Acrobat Preflight.

PDF Export: Missing Graphics

PDF Export: Missing Graphics Below is a section of code we are using to export a document as a PDF. The code will work 99% of the time, but occasionally we are getting the resulting PDF with some of the linked PDF components completely missing! The only way we have been able to reproduce this is (strangely) by continually opening and closing 'Windows Explorer' windows (We are using CS2 on XP), just as the process begins, until the final PDF is created. Our customer (who has hilighted the problem) would clearly not be doing this but we feel there is an issue here. (If the keyboard and mouse are left completely alone, the process is successful... 100% OF THE TIME!). The problem occurs both on site and at base, the linked PDF's are located on the LAN. The code snippet (with error checking taken out for brevity) is below: UIDRef pageUIDRef = PCSImageUtils::GetFirstPageUIDRef(); UIDList temp = ((UIDList)(pageUIDRef)); ErrorCode status = kFailure; do { // obtain command boss InterfacePtr<ICommand> pdfExportCmd(CmdUtils::CreateCommand(kPDFExportCmdBoss)); // set export prefs InterfacePtr<IPDFExportPrefs> pdfExportPrefs(pdfExportCmd, UseDefaultIID()); InterfacePtr<IPDFExportPrefs> appExportPrefs((IPDFExportPrefs*)::QuerySessionPreferences(IID_IPDFEXPORTPREFS)); pdfExportPrefs->CopyPrefs(appExportPrefs); // set SysFileData PMString pmFilePath("C:\\Outputfile.PDF"); IDFile sysFilePath(pmFilePath); InterfacePtr<ISysFileData> trgSysFileData(pdfExportCmd, IID_ISYSFILEDATA); trgSysFileData->Set(sysFilePath); // set UI flags InterfacePtr<IUIFlagData> uiFlagData(pdfExportCmd, IID_IUIFLAGDATA); uiFlagData->Set(kSuppressUI); // set UIDList containing pages to output (item list of command) UIDList theList(temp); pdfExportCmd->SetItemList(theList); // set UIDRefs containing pages to output (IOutputPages) InterfacePtr<IOutputPages> outputPages(pdfExportCmd, UseDefaultIID()); outputPages->Clear(); IDataBase* db = theList.GetDataBase(); outputPages->SetMasterDataBase(db); int32 nProgressItems = theList.Length(); for (int32 index = 0 ; index < nProgressItems ; index++) { outputPages->AppendUIDRef(theList.GetRef(index)); } // set PDF document name (get name from IDocument) InterfacePtr<IDocument> doc ((IDocument*)db->QueryInstance(db->GetRootUID(), IID_IDOCUMENT)); PMString documentName; doc->GetName(documentName); outputPages->SetName(documentName); // finally process command status = CmdUtils::ProcessCommand(pdfExportCmd); } while(false); Thanks in advance. Dave Wilson.

Hi Dave,
It looks like a problem with unsafe threads inside command ...
Did you tried set some preferences from next ?
SetPDFExOmitPDF( kExportOmitPDFOFF )
SetPDFExOmitBitmapImages ( kExportOmitBitmapImagesOFF )
may be help you stabilize export process ...

Acrobat XI PDF maker files missing

Have just installed XI. I run Win7 and 32bit Office 2010. PDF export ribbon in showing in word and you can create pdf from this.
The problem arises if you use the right click 'create pdf' function. More importantly, when using the merge multiple files to PDF function. In both cases it works ok with excel but fails on word (in the case of the merge multiple file function all other types f file go in but the word file fails)
I get he message 'PDF maker files missing'. It suggests a repair that I have tried but that doesn't help.
I have checked the COM add in isn't disabled. It's not.
Just can't get this working. Help!!!

Is it that none of the right click options are not working (Create PDF, Create PDF and Email or Combine only)?
Try converting the word file by dragging and dropping the file to Acrobat interface/icon.
Are you able to convert the word document to PDF from Acrobat Ribbon (Acrobat-> Create PDF) from within the word application?
Is the issue with a particular word file or happening with all the word files?

If you already have a PDF document, ExportPDF can help you with this task. https://www.acrobat.com/exportpdf/en/convert-pdf-to-word.html
On the other hand, if you have a physical document, you'll need to scan it into a PDF document first.
Depending on what you need to do you may require different tools & services, so please help us out with more details.

Why Acrobat x professional is changing the text formatting specifically the font family and the font size of the text in my pdf on exporting it to Microsoft word file format ?How should i stop Acrobat x professional from doing that so that i get an exactly same word file on exporting it from its pdf counterpart?

I was testing the preciseness & efficiency of Adobe acrobat x professional's doc conversion capabilities. As i have to take a document editing project in future which is going to need lot of pdf to word and vice versa conversions . What I did was I created a test word document converted into a pdf using a pdf maker in my word 2007 , Acrobat did convert the document from word to pdf keeping everything in the source file intact , However when i tried the other way round and attempted to convert the same pdf to word 2007 file format I lost my formatting ?So the font that I used to create the pdf are the ones taken from word 2007 which i believe is using the fonts that are installed in my computer. Any suggestions on how to preserve the formatting of the document after converting it from pdf to word file format?
Regards
Mike

Update pushed from Adobe for Acrobat X failed and now the "print to a PDF" option is missing. How do I get it back?

Adobe pushed a security update to my computer and the update failed. Now the "print to PDF" option is missing from all of my programs. How do I get it back?
Version X.1.12.

Thanks. That's exactly what I did, but from the Adobe help screen. It did the trick, but I'm not very happy with Adobe for messing up my system.
I appreciate your answering back.

Getting message while opening PDF file exported from InDesign

Hi,
We have created an interactive PDF in InDesign. In this PDF we have created 15-20 pages which are link together and next previous button is provided.
We are using InDesign CS3 and PDF reader 9. PDF is exported for version 8 onwards. Exported PDF is working properly on our machine but our client is receving the following message on their machine if they try to open this PDF (they have PDF reader 8):
"Please Note: You cannot save a completed copy of this form on your computer. If you would like a copy for your records, Please fill it in and print it"
We have not used any kind of form in my PDF only internal page hyperlinks are given.
Attached screen shot is given for your reference.
Is there as way for remove this message so it doen not appear? I would really appriciate if anybody can help me out.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards,
Deepika

Deepika,
The alert dialog your screen shot depicts will only display if there is some kind of form annotation present in a PDF that is not "Reader Enabled".
Look closer at your 'final' PDF.
A PDF, not "Reader Enabled", that contains any form annotations will, when opened by Adobe Reader,
result in the alert dialog that you mention. A "hard wired" default.
Note that the forms document message bar can be "off" by a selection in Adobe Reader / Acrobat Preferences.
Select the 'Forms' category. Select "Always hide forms document message bar".
Be well...

Why won't Acrobat X Pro honor the margin (art box) from PDF's exported from InDesign CS6?

Why won't Acrobat X Pro honor the margin (art box) from PDF's exported from InDesign CS6?
When I export a PDF from InDesign CS6 with specific margins, Acrobat does not recognize the Art box. (I have PitStop Pro 11 for page box view)

Thanks Steve,
We are exporting PDF's as you indicate. I see the same thing. The boxes are all the size of the original InDesign document. The PDF art box should be predicated by the margins in InDesign. When we had CS3, this worked great. Now, it seems that there is a disconnect between the two Adobe products honoring the page box size. I have contacted the Adobe techs via chat, and they had no clue what I was referring to. I find it mystifying that Acrobat can not interpret the art box set in InDesign as margins.

Some PDF Documents are Missing Letters when Printing

We use a Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise (64-bit) server as our print server. Ever since we moved our printers to this server, several of our existing PDF documents have missing letters when they print. If you modify your print properties and choose "Print as Image", the documents print correctly with no missing letters.
The missing letters seem to come in specific combinations, such as ti, ft, fa, etc.
Our previous print server was a Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) machine and these documents all printed fine on that server.
Are there any known issues with printing PDF documents on a 64-bit print server, or with 64-bit drivers?
Thank you for your time,
Jason

This response will hopefully help you towards a solution—I have not encountered the specific problem you are facing.
The image you posted shows the fonts that are embedded in your document: both Calibri and Myriad Pro. However, the second instance of Calibri indicates that some some of the Calibri characters were encoded differently, and I suspect based on the combo characters you listed, these are glyphs and are what your printer is having trouble processing.
The usual solution for print server issues is to make sure all drivers and firmware are updated.
The answer to your question regarding embedding fonts completely is to change your Adobe pdf print preferences to embed all fonts, not just a subset. This must be done when the pdf is being created initially. You can change font embedding by choosing a joboption like Press Quality that includes full font embedding or by modifying the joboption you are already using. In Windows, you can do this at the time of print by selecting the Advanced button next to the printer selection dropdown and changing settings there, in advance by modifying the printing preferences from your printers menu, or by editing the joboptions in Acrobat Distiller.

Why PDF documents are missing icon of standard size?

Hello,
My Adobe Reader is v11.0.6. It was originally installed on Win XP Home and worked OK.
Recently, I've moved it to Win7 Pro with the aid of Laplink PC Mover. It works OK, but PDF documents are missing its standard size icon, e.g. on Desktop. Precisely speaking, my closed PDF documents display as their icon the first page of the document with almost invisible miniature of PDF icon in its right lower corner.
I tried to take care of it with re-association and re-choosing right icon. This corrected the situation for a few seconds only.
I repaired the Reader installation also with the same effect.
The icon chosen is located in: C:\Windows\Installer\{AC76BAB6-7AD7-1033-7B44-AB0000000001} \PDFFile_8.ico. It's of 256x256 pixels
Why this happen? How can one repair it?
Andy148

Open Windows Explorer -> Tools -> Folder Options
Go to the View tab
Check "Always show icons, never thumbnails"
Hit Apply
All your PDF files on your desktop should now show with the generic PDF icon.

Can't visualise text on PDF files exported from PS

PDF files exported from PS (levels included as we need them to be selectable) have corrupted text. When opening the saved pdf file, a part of text doesn't appear. It is usually starting from the second chapter of text. Any idea of how to solve this problem?

Hi Marco,
For now we have only fixed this in CC, but we are aware this problem also affects CS6 users and is a significant problem for many people. At this time, I don't know of any workaround in CS6 for this bug other than to break text up into smaller blocks or use another more text-oriented application like InDesign. While I can't comment on future releases, your feedback on this issue is important to us, and I can say, "there's always hope"...
If you'd like to discuss this further, or send us a file that exhibits the problem, please contact me directly. My email address is my last name @ adobe.com.
