Preview distorts pdfs. What is fix?
Preview on both of my Macs will not open many pdfs I download. How do I fix this?
Thanks for your reply. I also have version 5.5.3. It appears the pdfs Preview can not read are from websites and Windows programs. The pdfs are completely distorted, just a bunch of lines and blank spaces. I had to download Adobe Reader to be able to view them. I do prefer Preview, when it works, as it seems to be better software to work with pdfs than Reader is. I'm not sure how common this is. There have been a few references, but not many.

How can I print so that its locked at the size previewed?

I sometimes have transparency problems when I distort PDF image size (i.e.: 100%x99%) then Export. Is there away to fix. Or at least be able to preflight and know I have an issue.
Mostly I have seen borders and drop shadows that will just go away or other wise not print right but only when I distort the image and only on very complicated large PDF images. When I print it at same % both horz and vert. this problem goes away.

The thumbnails/previews of PDFs created in InDesign CC look dull or cloudy in Bridge CC
The thumbnails/previews of PDFs created in InDesign CC look dull or cloudy in Bridge CC. The actual files are fine and open with the correct rich colors, but the colors don't look as vibrant as they should when viewing in Bridge. It's only PDFs that are affected. The InDesign thumbnails/previews display correctly in Bridge.
This was not happening when I was using CS6. This is only a problem since the upgrade to CC.
Any help you could provide would be appreciated. Thanks!If you're going to mess with the registry
- create a restore point http://windows.microsoft.com/en-ie/windows7/create-a-restore-point
- backup the registry http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/back-up-registry
I absolutely plead with all my heart - don't start changing registry entries unless you know what you're doing - or ask your IT department to take a look.
If you don't have an IT department, then source a good professional that can make these changes.
If any way unsure - then under any circumstances, - do not mess with the registry. -
Most of PDF documents can be easily previewed in Firefox without downloading. There are some, though, for example confirmations of bank transfers which aren't previewed and an ordinary download dialog appears.
This happens on Firefox running on two different computers (one using Linux Mint 17.1, the other - Windows XP)
How can I fix it?''finitarry [[#answer-686461|said]]''
<blockquote>
Just how do you preview a .pdf document without loading it? I see no option to do that from a link. Even if you choose to open it, it must be copied to your system before it can be opened.
</blockquote>
Maybe you misunderstood me and maybe I wasn't clear
If I open a regular PDF such as this [1], it isn't an explicit download. The content is of course loaded but no download dialog shows up. Neither does the file appear in the downloaded files. It's quickly previewed in browser.
If, on the other hand, I try to load a PDF generated by the website of a bank, the document isn't previewed in browser.

I have iMac desktop with Lion OS. I am using Firefox 6 web browser. Previously with Snowleopard OS I did not have any problems with printing, With Lion OS print commands have changed and when I click preview in PDF format for printing a web page, only page 1 of the document shows correctly. In second page, the text does not show all of the document and few lines at the boundary is missing and the font is different from page 1. I tried using Google Chrome browser and this does not have this problem. If I do not find a solution I may be forced to move to Google Chrome. I will really appreciate a response. Thanks.
Why not reconstruct the pages in InDesign they way you want the double pages to appear. There may even be an imposition script available that will do the trick. You could then output to pdf all the pages you want the full spread on. Leave the original to create the pages you wanted left as is.
You can ask in the ID forum about an imposition script. I know there was one with CS4, there may have been one with CS3. -
Kde 4.9.3 no preview for pdf files in dolphin ?
I have poppler and poppler-qt installed but still I dont see option to turn on preview for pdf files.
You need to install kdegraphics-thumbnailers, then enable PDF preview in dolphin configuration (General > Preview)

Does Preview compress PDFs when saving?
Hi. My scanner can group separate scans into a single PDF on its own, but it is significantly slower than scanning documents separately and merging them with Preview.
Since scans are essentially saved twice when going the "merge with Preview" route (once when scanned, again when merged), I'm curious to know whether Preview compresses PDFs with each save. If so, I'd like to know how lossy this process is. Anyone know?
Thanks in advance for any help / info!Preview suck!!! Please for your own sanity use acrobat to edit PDF. Get it from adobe.com

After I create a form, save it, and select Preview in PDF, none of the fields work. You cannot enter text in a text field, select a check box, or click on a radio button. When I open the same form using Adobe Acrobat Pro, it opens and works just fine. How do I make Preview in PDF functional in LiveCycle?
I would appreciate it if someone would respond, even with just a simple "Hi" so I know this question is actually visible in the forums. I'm beginning to wonder if I am asking questions in the wrong forum.
Thanks
gbCheck your settings.
Go to File >> Form Properties >> Preview tab. Make sure "Preview Type" is set to "Interactive Form". And I also have "Preview Adobe XML form as:" set to "Dynamic XML form".
Hope this helps. -
Pusrchase order having 3 line item But print preview in PDF shows blank.
Hi All,
Purchase order has 3 line items. While taking print preview in PDF format 1st page shows 1 line item and 2nd page is blank.
I am not understanding the issue why other two line items are not getting displayed.?
Please provide me with the solution.
Thanks
ForumYes,there is a issue in print preview itself , if there is a issue in Print Prview that means page is gets skipped on next page ,therefore 2nd page automatically gets blank ,debug the same with abapor ,if this problem gets resolved then automatically system will convert the document in PDF as per print preview.

I purchased the Adobe pdf Pack to combine 50 PDF files to one and when I select them from my folder it claims "the files are not in a format supported for conversion to PDF". They already are pdfs, what am I doing wrong?

I have three apple certified cords and all are giving me errors not certified. What is fix?
If you got them from a real Apple Store they are covered by warranty. Take it back and get a free replacement.
Of course, it could be that the cables are OK but you have a defective charger (if you are getting errors while charging) -
