Printing problem with converted AW files

I've searched the forum for an answer to this to no avail, so here goes...
My wife recently bought a Mac mini as an upgrade to her "classic" iMac. I've managed to get the majority of her old files transferred over to the new machine but recently ran across a frustrating problem. She has created many files on her old machine using AppleWorks 5.0.3 and wants to use these files on her new machine using AW 6.2.9. The files open and edit fine, but when we go to print, her HP DeskJet 832C bucks and coughs and tries to print but only gets about 3/4 through the first page then stops. I've checked to make sure the printer driver is current and also reinstalled AppleWorks, but the same problem occurs. Any new files she creates using AW 6.2.9 print just fine and other software on the computer prints docments OK, too (PDFs, calendar, etc.). It appears to be just the converted AppleWorks files that complain. I can even copy the text from an old file to a new file in AppleWorks and THAT prints fine, but that's a hassle. Any ideas on this problem? Any help you can give would be appreciated. Thanks.

Mac OS is "confused" about what program these files belong to & so gives them a generic one. This can be a result of not using Disk Utility to repair permissions after a system update. It is easily fixed.
Highlight a known AppleWorks document in the Finder, highlight it & choose Get Info from the File menu. In the Get Info box, click the triangle next to "Open With." Click on this drop-down menu & choose AppleWorks 6. If AppleWorks 6 is not a choice, choose "Other" & navigate to the AppleWorks 6 application. Now click the "Change" button under the text that asks if you want to open all documents like this with AppleWorks 6.
Sometimes it can happen if files are transfered from one Mac to another using a PC-formatted disk. I have written a user tip dealing with this, AppleWorks 6 won't open my AW 5 files. Even though the title says AppleWorks 5 files, it also applies to not being able to open AppleWorks 6 files.

Problems with converted .CR2 files to .dgn on Mac Snow Leopard

Hi,
I'm trying to convert .CR2 files from my Canon 70D into .dng files so that I can use them in Adobe Bridge CS5. I have been able to convert them using Adobe DNG converter 8.2 but under the file's info I see "Dimensions 0x0". I don't understand why this is happening or how to change this so that it reflects the correct size of the image. Also, I am not able to see thumbnails of the images once they have been converted, and again can't understand why.
Can anyone suggest what I'm missing here?
I have converted photos previously to .dng and they are visible as thumbnails on my mac and the dimensions are shown in their properties so can't understand why this is happening with this new set of photos.
Thanks

Are the dimensions those of the embedded preview? Check to see what size of preview you have set in the DNG Converter options. Perhaps it is set to None.

Printing problem with some pdf files

This problem is with Windows 7 and XP.
When trying to print I receive the following error:
"The Document could not be printed.
There were no pages selected to print."
I tried the print image button and same error.
This is Adobe Reader 10
I have also tried saving to different files and still same problem.
Thanks

Hi!
I've tested the issue again with Adobe Reader 10.1.4 on MS Windows XP Pro. SP3, MS Windows 7 Pro. SP1 32-bit and 64-bit with the following drivers:
- HP Universal Printing PS package ver. 5.5.0.12834 (driver ver. 61.130.04.12834) for printing to HP LaserJet 4100 DTN (224 MiB of RAM) and HP Color LaserJet 4700dn (288 MiB of RAM)
- Samsung Universal Print Driver PS ver. 2.03.09.00_41 for printing to Samsung ML-3051DN printer with 64 MiB of RAM
Printing of the sample 6-page PDF file (https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=ojv64pOBncq6XxtSiRqSkw) is still slow because the document stays long in the Windows print queue. Here are the test results:
- printing with the HP UPD PS driver - 120 sec.
- printing with the Samsung UPD PS driver - 220 sec.
When the same PDF file is printed in FoxitReader 5.4.4 the document stays in the print queue for only 15 sec.
Enabling the Print As Image option in the Reader's Advanced Print Setup can help to some degree (it gives better kB/sec. ratio but it increases the size of the print job).
I'd really appreciate it if developers at Adobe improved the Reader in order to solve the issue with the PS drivers.

Problems with converted .MTS files in Final Cut Express 4

I have a hard drive full of video shot and a consumer grade HD camera in the .MTS format.
After struggling with finding an acceptable converter, I finally bought iSkysoft's Video Converter.
I've been using the converter's output preset of "MP4 Format for Final Cut X" and "High definition MP4 format" settings and they both yield the same results.
Now I am having problems simply editing the footage in FCE4.
I can take the footage and set i/o points in them but when I drag clips into the timeline, it often hangs up, locks up, FCE is unresponsive and it's even crashed.
This is on a 2 x 3.2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Mac running 10.6.8.

In order to use .mts video in Final Cut Express, you need to convert the video to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec before importing into FCE. .mts video files are typically H.264 video, highly compressed and is not something that FCE can edit. Ditto for "MP4 format for FCPX or HighDef MP4 format". If iSkysoft cannot convert to QT/AIC then I suggest Clipwrap
Note: for the future, if your camcorder is an AVCHD camcorder you can directly ingest the video from the camcorder into FCE.

Problem with converted mod file

Hello,
I have taken some clips with a friends camera, which saves them to the oh so annoying .MOD format.
I have converted it to avi, h264, mp4, and whats not, but when I already succeed to import the file to premier, when I play and view it during editing, only the audio works, I cannot seek, and the video is frozen, at the maximum moving 1 to 2 frames.
it also makes the play/pause inaccessible sometimes.
In addition, when exporting the file, the same behavior is encountered in the final file.
What should I do?
Thanks for the help.

Problem with converting psd file to jpeg

I have completed a project with lots of layers and saved as a psd file including all the layers. I then flatten the image and save it as a jpeg. The jpeg doesnot look at all like the original psd.
this is the only file I have ever had that has done this. no other files are currently doing it. Just this one important days to complete file.
I work with Mac OS 10.6.8 Photoshop CS6 - Raw file to begin with. Never had this issue.
Anyone have any ideas.
I tried taking it into Cs5 and it did the same thing.

My dad took some maternity pictures of me, he took majority in B&W I wanted to make certain parts in color only so I watched a youtube tutorial to add color to a B&W he said to convert to a CMYK so I did, I continued to follow his instructions step by step. He just didn't mention that when it would save it would save as a PSD so I didn't even know abt that format until AFTER it happened. So I began to look up how to convert from PSD to JPEG...every forum I saw I tried what they suggested to no avail. I then went back to the original JPEG image, RE DID the edits, only this time when I went to save (as the SAVE AS feature truly isn't working, I can click it and click it, even use the shortcute keys...nothing happens) I scrolled down, chose the JPEG 2000 selection cause a forum said to chose JPEG when it pops up PSD, I didn't realize that it was different than a reg JPEG format and now it won't open even in cs6 it says NOT ENOUGH RAM and IDK why. So I've now gone yet again to the original JPEG, switched it to CMYK did all the edits again, I am now done editing, only this time I'm going to have someone tell me what to do next as it's still JPEG, 8bits chanel and I have NOT flattened it....what do I need to do next in order to insure it saves as a jpeg so I am able to upload it online?
I am not sure how to do screen shots or I would love to take them so someone can see exactly what I see. IDK if it matters but I am using the trial version of cs6, I was trying to get used to it some before I upgraded from cs5 extended.
If someone can instruct me as to how to post a link to the image so someone else could edit it then I'd be glad to do so.
I'm not an idiot...everyone started out a beginner at some point and I happen to be not as advanced as others...I see no fault in that, I am a 25 yr old woman who is busy as a working at home mom so forgive me if I can't invest a lot of time into learning a new program as quickly as I would like.
Thanks to anyone who can and is willing to help.

HP Officejet100 Mobile L411a intermittent Bluetooth printing problems with PDF files

Hello,
Our company provides computer-hosted medical devices controlled by an application running on Windows7 computers we supply. We are currently using the HP Officejet 100 as a Bluetooth printer. In some of our customer offices, we experience printing problems using the printer in Bluetooth mode (there are never problems if the printer is connected by a USB cable.)
The printing problems typically affect PDF files printed through Adobe Reader 10, and the symptom is one of the following:
Send a print job to the printer. It doesn't print and eventually the print queue shows an "Error Printing" message. If any print jobs are removed and the printer is power-cycled, the problem goes away for the time being.
2. Same as above but power-cycling does not cure the problem and nothing will print, even a test page.
In either of these cases there are no problems if a USB cable is used.
The PDF files we are trying to print are typically 5 pages with 3 of the pages having a lot of graphics and the remainder being text only.
Has anyone seen this behavior and is there anything we can do about it?
Thanks.

I don't anything about this printer, but I do know that bluetooth is really flaky with large files since it's got a crappy transfer rate, could be that the transfer is dropping and freezing the printer up. Does it have encryption turned on?

Printing Error: There is a problem with a font file.

I get this error when I try to print:
"Printing Error: There is a problem with a font file."
I tried exporting to PDF and printing from there. I get this message:
"An error exist on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem."
Has anyone encountered this problem?

You may have a corrupted font. Try substituting fonts to see which one is the problem.

Printing problems with hp laserjet 1018

Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.1.7

HP C309a All in one Printer - Problems with printing documents the correct size.

Hi I recently purchased an HP 309a as a replacement for an EPSON printer which had to be replaced a couple of times so I thought I would change manufacturer.
The HP printer prints well in post places but when I print from Excel on an A4 scale it only prints 3/4 size on an A4 page. I tried everything to get it to print the correct size. I have adjusted the settings to scale to A4, print boderless etc and it just will not print correctly.
It seems to be ok in Word and many other programs so I don't know why there is an issue with Excel. Iam I missing something, please help.
Also is there any way to default the printer to A4 automatically instead of 8" x 11".

I also have issues using this printer with Excel/ Word.
When I am using Excel or Word I have to remove the HP 309a as my default printer.
when set as default, excel and word just "hang" for up to 3 minutes when opening or saving.
I called HP who said the printer works with all other files so basically it's tough. One of their tech guys tried to sort it out but couldn't.
Has anyone else had this same problem? If so, how was it resolved?
£300 for a printer that doesn't work with MS. It's not funny and I won't buy HP product again.

Printer problem with AW 6.2.9

I have a recurring printer problem with both hp deskjet 5150 and Epson R220. After much work with techs at both, we have determined that it is an AW problem (v. 6.2.9) Other files print okay. I've searched through recent posts and found similiar questions, but the answers aren't specific to my problem. I gather that it involves trashing certain AW files, such as Appleworks.plist and other Appleworks prefs. It will help it I know the specific files to trash and as much detail about how to find them on the HD. I will be infinitely grateful for any help.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
You are correct that deleting the AppleWorks preferences can fix some printing problems. I'm surprised that in finding that information you didn't come across a post with the specific information or a tip to my user tip, AppleWorks has stopped working correctly, that explains which preference files ot delete.
Make sure you have the newest printer driver for each printer. Also, use Disk Utility to repair permissions after any system update or upgrade.

Printing Problems with PDF - Adobe Acrobat

Printer - HP Deskjet 3070A
Laptop - Asus Zenbook running Windows 7 Home Premium
Issue: Printing problems with PDF (Adobe Acrobat Reader)
Dear All,
Please help!
My printer was working absolutely perfectly until my brother in law recently needed to borrow my printer. He plugged in his laptop running Windows 8 (awful thing that is). Since he did this to print his own PDF, I cannot print mine.
Although all the text will appear on the page perfectly both in the document view and on actual printing, it appears that some of the transparent formatting stuff on a PDF - such as boxes you have to fill in and transparent areas (such as you find on glorious tax forms) are omitted completely. In fact, in their place I was getting a single black dot. Now, after uninstalling and re-installing updates for the printer, windows 7, adobe acrobat reader, etc.etc. I get squat. Just all the text laid out but none of the shading or boxes.
I have tried fiddling with the printer settings; the print as 'photo' option, dpi settings, greyscale - as much as I can think of and I am thoroughly stumped.
In a desperate attempt, I even installed the Universal Printer Drivers - thinking it might have been that. No. All I got was a page of gobbledygook. Consequently, I uninstalled and reinstalled the normal drivers again.
If there are any wonderful people out there with any fabulous ideas about how I can get my shading and boxes back; I'd very much appreciate it. Sadly I have a tax return to fill out (which is already fabulously late) and need my printer to work!
Much appreciation in advance x

Hey there @Reverie!
Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!
I can see that the printer is no longer printing in the correct format after it was plugged into the Windows 8 computer! You mentioned you have run the updates and uninstalled/re-installed the printer software. Have you uninstalled and re-installed the Adobe software? Are you getting the same issue from other programs as well? Are you getting the same issues if you are logged in as a different user on the computer?
I have located the HP Update Software Utility that may be able to help. You can download an run the utility. It may be able to locate any other updates for the printer.
I would also recommend running a disk cleanup on the computer to clear any temporary files and junk files that may be causing some performance or software issues. If you do not know how to run a disk cleanup on the computer please follow this document regarding Delete files using Disk Cleanup. It is recommended to restart the computer after a disk cleanup. After the restart try the print job again!
Let me know if that helped and thanks again for posting on the HP Forums!

Problem with Converter

Problem with Converter. When I save a PDF it is saved as a Word document and I cannot open it. What is the problem? I have uninstalled the Converter, but it continues to save PDF as Word.

I cannot open the file with Word. I am not trying to convert the file at
all. When I save a PDF and then try to open the file, it is saved as a
Word document and it will not allow me to open it.
