Please please help! White border in interactive PDF

Hi Everyone, Please someone help me as its driving me mad! I have an interactive PDF with SWFs added via SWFPresenter script- all the animations work  (each picture fades in as expected) but instead of it being full screen (as in the first screenshot), it has a large white border (as in second) Any ideas would really help me!!
Thanks

When you export you will note that you export an Adobe PDF. There's a reason for that.
Mac Preview is fine for a plain vanilla PDF but it ends there.

  • Help needed with saving interactive PDF (Video and Youtube in InDesign)

    Designing a brochure in Indesign CS6 I have placed small MP4 video file into indesign, when I save the file as an interactive pdf the video files dont show up in preview on mac, just a blank white space. the window does show in adobe reader but im having problems with the play function not being able to pause that. Would like the file to be a pdf so can share across a few devices and platforms.
    Have also tried a workaround which hyperlinks an screencaption but the link appears broken when i click the image, is this something to do with you tube video being private?

  • White border in pdf preview of bleed doc

    Hi,
    As the attached image shows I get a thin white border on my pdf preview of a document that has a 3mm bleed. I have tried to increase the bleed to 5mm but with same result. I've also tried to exceed the black background outside the bleed marks in InDesign - no result. The pdf is exported with document is generated I'm stuck. Why do I get this annoying thin white border when previewing the pdf document? The people I'm sending this to thinks its something wrong and even if this should turn out to be in preview mode only its ruining my work as everyone else is asking about it when looking at the pdf. Use Document Bleed settings is ticked.

    You mentioned trying to increase the bleed areas by dragging the black box larger, but are you actually specifying the larger bleed when exporting the PDF
    Also, you mention Bleed Marks rather than Crop Marks.
    Crop marks show where the page will be trimmed and this is what the printer needs to see.
    Bleed marks are essentially useless. they only show the edge of the bleed, but give NO indication where the printer should trim to
    Your black screenshots are hard to decipher, but the Magenta box in your 2nd screenshot only shows the margins on the inside of the page.
    Unless you have set the margins to 0, the magenta margin box will always be smaller that the page (the final trim size which is what the Crop marks are for)
    Have you accidently set a Slug area larger than the bleed? This is only way I can get the white space to show.
    The example below used greatly exaggerated settings to better show some issues.I greatly increased the bleed area to swallow the Crop marks and then included the Slug area to show the white.(slugs are not always used or even needed)
    The Magenta box are the margins inside the page.
    The Red box is the bleed area.
    The Crop marks in between these two are what the printer need to cut on to produce the final page size.
    Click on the image below to see a larger version with more detail.
    P,S, you mentioned about not being able to print the bleeds. If you have bleeds and crops that will make the final PDF size larger than your desktop printer can print, just select FIT or REDUCE OVERSIZE PAGE in the print dialog and it will print on your printer. Of course it will not be to 100 scale, but it will show all the elements in the PDF.

  • Unwanted white border in PDF,

    I get  white border in my PDF.  Designed A4 folding brochure in id cc14, exported as PDF. Bleed and margins set up 0.00. Any printer settings I apply don't make big different.
    What to do?

    No crop marks
    Office printer unfortunately.
    As you can see coloured elements stick well beyond the sheet.

  • Sending Interactive PDF through mail - as INLINE item

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement, wherein I have to send an Interactive PDF form through mail, as INLINE (i.e. displayed in the body of the message item),and not as ATTACHMENT.
    i.e. The Interactive PDF content should be seen in the body page of the mail itself.
    I have to send the PDF from a java application. I was able to do it with an image(as INLINE) using the HTML tag <img>.
    For PDF, I tried using the HTML tags <iframe> and <embed>. i even tried javascript embeded within HTML code. But no use.
    IMPORTANT : Please note that, it is an Interactive PDF form, there will be editable Input fields in the PDF file.
    Any one please help me to solve this....
    Thanks,
    Prabhakar.

    You can set the main content of your message to be the PDF content with MIME
    type application/pdf, but I doubt that you can convince most mailers to display this
    content as you intend. As far as I know, this is not a commonly supported feature.
    If you can use some other program to create a message that displays the way you
    want, you can copy the structure of that message with your JavaMail program.

  • Not able to assemble two interactive PDF forms to form a single interactive PDF

    Hi,
    I am trying to assemble two interactive PDF forms to form a single PDF. I am using LiveCycle process with Assembler and Invoke ddx file for this. But the resultant PDF is a flattened non interactive file.
    Please guide me in obtaining a interactive PDF from two interactive PDFs.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Shabeer

    Sabeer,
    type of output document depends on the type of base document.
    if base document is flatten\non-intractive, then you will recieve flatten\non-intractive form nd vise versa
    ddx,
    <PDF result="doc3.pdf" ><!--output document; intractive-->
         <PDF source="doc1.pdf"/> <!--Base document; intractive-->
         <PDF source="doc2.pdf"/>
    </PDF>

  • Backlight display of iPad on white border? Is it a manufacturing defect? PLEASE HELP!!!!1

    OK guys i have a white iPad and the other i noticed when i held it up to the light i saw a white line about 2-3 cm think 1 inch long on the WHITE BORDER of my ipad and i was wondering if it was a manufacturing defect OR not because i called apple and told them about the fproblem and they said it was going to cost $299 to fix it. but i am well under the apple waranty for manufacturing defects. and i am absolutely sure i have not caused the screen light to show through the border. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICOULOUS COULD SOMEBODY PLEASE INFORM ME!!!

    No reason to shout (all caps is angry).  Make an appointment at your Apple Store Genius Bar.  You are under warranty and if there is an issue with your iPad, they will replace it at no charge to you (as long as there is no visible damage on your iPad).

  • In pages/Pixelmator how do you put a white border around a piece of font, to make it stand out more. Please Help

    The Benchwarmers logo, I would like to have a white border around the font to make it stand out. Help please

    You would be better served to take a closer look at BeLight's free Art Text 2 Lite, or on YouTube, search for "Pixelmator text effects," or review the several Pixelmator tutorials on their site. Pages does not support the layered text effects necessary to create the Benchwarmers logo, but certainly can incorporate this image once completed through external means.  Is the following image the one you have in mind:

  • Interactive PDF - advice, please

    Live and breathe in InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop, am new-ish to interactive PDFs.
    New project - a form - requires functionality that InDesign cannot provide. Adobe suggested I use LiveCycle, which of course is not available for Mac. Have outsourced project at the moment, but am looking for advice on what software is ideal for forms, etc. The first draft is passable, but some of the design elements are not as perfect as I'd like them to be.
    Of course, I'm loathe to "build" anything in Acrobat, due to the lack of editing capabilities (there are ALWAYS author's alterations).
    Do I buy a PC and LiveCycle? Do I suck it up and build in Acrobat?
    Thank you in advance

    There are a number of ways to quickly align fields, size them consistently, etc., you just need to know how to do it most efficiently. Here's a recent discussion that has more information: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4800377
    As I mentioned earlier, when the source document needs to be changed, you don't have to redo everything since you can simply replace the old pages with the new, but you may have to tweak the position of some fields. Once you learn how to do this efficiently, it goes quickly.
    Regarding the "NAME" issue, you can also use a custom Format script for the field, someting like:
    // Custom Format script for text field
    if (!event.value) event.value = "Default text to display goes here";
    The default text will be displayed when the field is empty. Importantly, the actual field value will be blank, as opposed to the default text. When the field receives the focus, the default text will go away and the user can enter text in the blank field. It will reappear if the field becomes blank again. Since you can't enter JavaScript actions in InDesign, you'll have to add the script in Acrobat. I'd say this approach is better than anything you can do with an On Focus script.
    Regarding the logo, this would normally be placed (as vector art or image) in the InDesign source doc. Is there a reason yo're not doing that? Is the logo an image or vector?

  • Printing a .pdf with "boxed" sections appearing as "white" and showing a "white" border to the "box"

    Dear Community,
    I have created a .pdf file from an email and then "boxed" sections of the document with a white border and a white fill, intending the recipient to be unable to see the text within the "box". However, when I print the document it appears as if the "boxed" sections did not exist. In other words, all the text in the email is printed. Can anyone help with a solution, please.

    You cannot create pdf files or forms in Adobe Reader. If you used Acrobat, please repost in that forum.

  • Thin Black Border on Video in Interactive PDF (Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional)

    Hi
    I am having issues with embedded video in an interactive pdf (currently using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional).
    I have placed my media mp4 file in the pdf. I would like the video to have no border, so I proceeded to Multimedia Properties to edit the Appearance and set the Border Type to Invisible Rectangle. I also editted the Playback settings for the Rendition to keep the player open "Forever once activated." But every time I view pages in my interactive pdf with video there is still a thin black border surrounding the videos on initial play. If I have already viewed the video and come back to the page, the border dissapears.
    Is there a way to ensure the thin black border/outline never appears in the pdf, even when first opening and viewing the file? Does this have to do with the Acrobat 8 in particular? Please let me know if you are also encountering this problem or have a solution.

    Thank you so much for your help.
    I am now working in Adobe Acrobat X Pro and have embedded the same video. The borders have disappeared.
    I have set the video activation settings to enable when "The page containing the content is opened". When the page is opened, I am now seeing a grey box (the size of the video) flash before the video is played. Do you know of a way to not have the grey box appear before the video plays? Or is there even a way to edit the color of this box so it is a less noticeable transition in my documet? I assume this is some sort of default setting to be displayed when the video loads. Any suggestions regarding this issue would be greatly appreciated.
