Printing using Adobe PDF printer

Dear all,
I have a digital file with an .swf extension, that opens with a program Ebook_reader.exe. From within the opened (compressed adobe files) program I print to my Adobe PDF printer. The printer is a virtual printer used to create pdf files.
The printing proces is almost fine, except for one detail that I cannot seem to fix by changing settings of teh Adbobe PDF printer.
In the program I see the graphs clearly, and after I print them to PDF they seem funny.

When I open the file with Adbobe 8.0 (I know old ...) there seems to be a triangler layer inserted (first graph). Wiith the second graph the lines seem at an angle of 45 degrees ... also layered however when I delete these I delete the grid ... which is not what I would like.
Does anyone know a way to get the above mentioned fixed?
Kind regards,
OS: windows 7, x64

I have a g5 running Tiger. I updated my profile after posting my original question.
The "Save as PDF..." button works, but not the button on the right that says "Print". It is important to me to be able to use that button, because it forces the application to print to the Adobe PDF virtual printer.

Word to PDF using Adobe PDF printer

Friends,
I am using 'Adobe PDF' printer to convert MS Word doc to PDF file. When converting some files I find that image size differ in Windows XP and Windows 7.
I use same joboptions for both systems and I use exact configurations in both systems.
I am using Acrobat 8 professional in both systems.
How can I ensure that I get same PDF with exact image size in both operating systems ?
Thank You,
Sriram

Acrobat is NOT for server use. Look into LiveCycle PDF Generator, intended and licensed for server use.

Snow Leopard: can't use Adobe PDF printer through Distiller

I am on Quark 8.1.6.2 and Snow Leopard (10.6.4) and use Acrobat Pro 9.4.
To make a PDF file I am always used to going through the Quark print dialogue boxes, selecting Adobe PDF as the printer, setting up sizes, settings etc, saving to a .ps file then using Adobe Acrobat Pro (9.4) Distiller to make a high res PDF for press. Worked fine, before I got Snow Leopard.
I have now read that Adobe PDF Printer is not available on Snow Leopard and that all applications that used Adobe PDF Printer to print pdfs will not be able to print pdfs.
See this link: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html which only helps InDesign users, not Quark 8 users.
In the print dialogue box it no longer allows me to set up custom page sizes for a .ps file.
How do I now print to high res for print PDF (through a .ps file for Distiller). ie, I don't want to export to PDF through the Quark print dialogue, as it makes too big a file, that's why I need to go through Distiller first. Help!

PDF/X-3 is the best choice to use in those provided by Quark. You can read up on the PDF/X format here. For correct use, version 3 requires all fonts used to be embedded (which the Quark function does automatically). Version 3 also requires all images to be CMYK or spot color. That doesn't mean you can't use it for RGB, though. PDF/X-3 also allows calibrated RGB images and CIELAB.
I assume for pre-press output I should use ''Press - high quality/high resolution', but then Acrobat Distiller asks for settings too...
You don't go through Acrobat Pro or the Distiller at all when outputting a PDF from Quark. The function is built in. There are nice, short descriptions of the various PDF choices here.
When you select a style, the defaults are automatically applied. You will get center and trim marks and whatever else is in the default settings. After you have selected the PDF version you want to use, then click on the Options button. Turn off marks, downsampling of images, or whatever else you want to change. Click the Capture Settings button and Quark will then automatically use your last settings as the method to create PDF files. When clicking the option to capture, you'll be thrown back to the document the first time, so you'll have to go to the menu to choose Layout as PDF again. But you'll see the choice is on Captured Settings. So until you change it, all you have to do is choose a location and click Save.

Problem Generating PDF Using Adobe PDF as Driver

I am using FM 10, experiencing problems in creating a pdf of a book. I use Adobe PDF as my print driver. The error said that a font,
HelveticaNeueCond, was not available, and could not be embedded. I had never heard of this font as being in my book, but I downloaded it and installed it on my C drive in my WINDOWS/Fonts folder. Still got the same error!
Also a pdf was made up to a certain page and then it failed. When I tried pdf ing that failed page, it worked. Then I tried to pdf the pages in between and it failed in a different spot.
This failure makes no sense.
I need help!

There are hundreds of message similar to this one in the archives, so I'd suggest you start reading those, but in general:
No one can do effective long-distance trouble shooting of your system without all the system details: FM and Acrobat versions, down to the patch levels (do Help > About), your OS, and amount of RAM and free disk space are important also.
If you are running Windows XP, get the Microsoft Hot fix for all PostScript printers and install if before you do anything else.
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=952909 (Gives details on the Hotfix)
http://support.microsoft.com/Hotfix/KBHotfix.aspx?kbnum=952909&kbln=en-us (Direct Download Link)
Reboot after installing it.
Then, or start with these if you're not on XP:
Set the Adobe Acroat printer as your system default printer.
Be sure you are printing to the Acrobat printer with the Print Command and not using SaveAs PDF
On the Frame Print dialog box, check Generate Acrobat Data and UNCHECK Print to File.

How do I extract pages from a pdf using 'Adobe PDF Pack'?

How do I extract pages from a pdf using 'Adobe PDF Pack'?

I think you have to buy extractor for 1.99 a month to extract PDF. But I am having trouble activating it. Good luck.

Is it possible to extract the contents of any PDF file using Adobe PDF SDK?

Is it possible to extract the contents of any PDF file using Adobe PDF SDK?
For Example: There is one pdf file. Let us say xxx.pdf with 32 pages. I am interested in only in a topic present at 10th page. Can I extract this information and save it into another pdf file (means new pdf file)?

Thanks Irosenth,
I am actually interested in extract the page and create a new PDF with that page. But still there is a catch that on which basis the page needs to extract either on PAGE number OR on Bookmark basis.
But here in this scenario assume I am looking for the PDF file, now I want to save only page 5. How can I extract page 5 automatically/programmatuically? Or in simple word how can I get the reference link of page 5?
Here I am not getting clear picture that Do I need both SDK Adobe & Acrobat to achieve this requirement. And more over you have mentioned that SDK itself is free. But on Adobe side it is mentioned that it is available by license only with this I have another doubt: To work my desktop/system application with Adobe PDF library, this library needs to distribute with the application. So in this case will it be chargeable for each and every deployment.
Could you please provide me the link from where I can download the SDK? So that I can do some excerise with SDK to figure out the exact flow of functionality to work with my application.

How Can A Website Be Opened In Chrome Using Adobe PDF Script?

How Can A Website Be Opened In Chrome Using Adobe PDF Script?
An Internet Explorer website can be opened using: app.launchURL("Website-Name", true);

Does it not just open it in the default HTTP viewer? If not, there certainly isn't a chrome-specific interface.

Can i use adobe pdf viewer dll in educational commercial project in c

I want to read PDF file in my project ..for that i want PDF viewer..so m asking you ..can i use adobe PDF viewer in my project.
Its a educational product for one of my client.

You can write software which uses an installed copy of Adobe Reader and its interfaces.
You cannot distribute the DLL by itself, or include it in your project files.
You can apply for permission to distribute Adobe Reader as a complete installer, subject to license.

Hi Praveen,
Check your release... you need to be in an ECC system... so if you are still in R/3 4.6c or R/3 4.7 you don't have that option.

Printing from Appleworks using Adobe PDF Printer

I have a large number of Appleworks files to convert to PDF. At the moment, I open the file, do a command-p, choose PDF, then "Save as PDF". This method works fine. I would like, however, to automate the process, and doing so would be much easier if the Adobe PDF Printer would print with the expected settings when I click the "Print" button. Is there any way to make this happen? It seems strange that it is not the default behavior, considering the fact that the PDF printer is only a virtual printer, and would never be used to print to paper.

I have a g5 running Tiger. I updated my profile after posting my original question.
The "Save as PDF..." button works, but not the button on the right that says "Print". It is important to me to be able to use that button, because it forces the application to print to the Adobe PDF virtual printer.

Unable to "print" using Adobe PDF ... spooler issue?

Hello,
I get the following message when trying to create a PDF file from any of my programs.
I've got Vista OS.
"Invalid Adobe PDF printer properties.
Do not change spooler settings.
Please select "Print directly to the printer" option (from Adobe PDF printer properties "Advanced" tab.)
I have not been able to locate the Print Directly option.
Am not sure how to rectify this problem.
Suggestions and thanks, Lynn

The change is made in settings for the Adobe PDF "printer" in Vista.
In Vista
Go to "Control Panel"
    Choose "Printers"
      Right click on "Adove PDF"
        Choose "Properties"
          Choose "Advanced" tab
            Choose "Print directly to the printer"
              Click on "Apply"
                Click on "OK"

I can't use Adobe PDF printer

Hello,
I can't print with my adobe pdf printer.
My version is adobe acrobat 8
Windows 8 64 bit.
I have a message "error impression on adobe pdf..."
NB : when I installed acrobat I had to decompress adobePDF.dll,
Thx

I have heard of no one who has been successful with AA8 on Win8. If you have any chance, you need to be sure you have updated Acrobat to the latest update to work with 64-bit systems.

Need Help using Adobe PDF Converter to programmatically create custom PDF Files

We are upgrading from Adobe 5 to Adobe 9. In Adobe 5, we set a few parameters in the __pdf.ini file to create a document with a specific Page Size. For Example:
[Acrobat PDFWriter]
PDFFileName=
bDocInfo=0
Orient=1
bExecViewer=0
cpmarginwhole=18
cpwidepart=0
cpwidewhole=612
cpheightpart=0
cpheightwhole=792
Paper=0
Since upgrading to Adobe 9.2, this no longer appears to work. I have also tried adding these values to the following Registry Locations with no luck:
HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat PDFWriter
and
HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Distiller\PrinterJobControl
Is it still possible to create a custom page size using this method? Or am I going to have to do that in a different way?

PDFWriter was removed in Acrobat 6 - so anything related to it hasn't worked for a decade now.
The Adobe PDF Printer is (like many other drivers) a special case of the standard Windows Postscript driver, any changes you make to its settings will be found and used accordingly. So check with standard Windows docs on custom page sizes. You should also look at the use of a custom JobOptions file for the Adobe PDFPrinter as well.
