Problem in saving pdf with added pages

Hi to all,
I'm new in this forum and I have a problem.
My scenario is: I have a dyanmic pdf of 2 pages. I inserted a button on the pdf which duplicates the second page (using the addInstance method in javascript in "click" event) and all works fine: I can add as many pages as I want. The problem is when I save that pdf: the saved pdf does not conserve the pages I added. How can I save the complete pdf? I have to set a certain property of the pdf? Or the problem is in a property of the subform?
Thanks for your help,
Enrico

I noted that I have a data connetion on my interactive form and it does n ot work. But if I remove any data connection, it works fine!!! Why this? I need that data connectio. Suggestions?
Thanks,
Enrico

Is it possible to create a tagged pdf with apple pages?

Not sure if possible and any tutorials would be appreciated.

> Is it possible to create a tagged PDF with Apple Pages?
Short answer: No, Apple chose at the introduction of Mac OS X to support only Adobe PDF 1.3 and those parts of Adobe PDF 1.4 that include device-independent transparency, but not those parts of Adobe PDF 1.4 that include Adobe XMP for XML markup of the page description program.
Long answer: Adobe PostScript is a page description programming language, unlike Xerox Interpress which is a page and document description programming language. In other words, Adobe PostScript is a streaming or sequential rendering model that cannot simulate the behaviour of a bound book where the user can turn from any one page to any other page arbitrarily. Adobe introduced Acrobat Distiller in 1993 in order to convert Adobe PostScript page description programs into Adobe PDF page and document description programs that share the same fundamental functionality as Xerox Interpress.
Conversion from Adobe PostScript to Adobe PDF buys one nothing but page-independent processing. Specifications published by Adobe in 1993 state how the SFNT Spline Font file format used by Apple and Microsoft for Unicode imaging has to be re-encoded into PostScript font program dictionary format (PostScript so-called simple fonts with less than 256 glyphs and PostScript so-called complex fonts (CID fonts) which are simple fonts tiled into a single superfont). All that is left is the glyph identifiers, and per Unicode Specification version 1.0 the glyph identifiers are private and font-dependent, so no character information can be inferred.
ISO 19005:2005 PDF/A is a superset of ISO 15930:2002 PDF/X-3. The problem with ISO 15930:2002 PDF/X-3 is the same as above, that is, Adobe PostScript cannot encode the file format of the International Color Consortium, which has to be re-encoded to PostScript CSA Color Space Arrays and PostScript CRD Color Rendering Dictionaries. It is possible to encode the ICC file format directly in PDF 1.3 and higher, as specified in ISO 15930 and ISO 19005, but because PDF encodes only the glyph identifiers that are the output of the SFNT file format, and not the UCS Universal Character Set input and the settings for the feature selectors in the font file, ISO 19005:2005 has come under criticism for failing to support search in complex scripts.
ISO 19005:2011 is supposed to address the shortcomings by saving the UCS input into the PDF itself, but in this case it is impossible to use Adobe PostScript and Adobe Acrobat Distiller as intermediates to Adobe PDF. So in order to drive ISO 19005:2011 Adobe would have to ditch Adobe Acrobat. I am not sure if there is software that implements ISO 19005:2011, but I noted that the Apple iBook Store does not accept PDF at all. Personally, I struggle to think of how to explain to endusers the overwhelming number of Adobe ISO PDF formats (there is PDF/E, PDF/UA and whatever else), and the overwhelming number of Adobe ISO PDF versions of these formats (there is ISO 19005:2005, ISO 19005:2011, ISO 15930 all the way back to 1999/2000 in God knows how many versions at this point).

PSE 8: How to create a pdf with several pages?

I want to deliver DINA4-Sheets (thats bacic European standard size of a sheet of paper for let's say writing an official letter) to print out in a copy-shop. Now the copy-shop-owner says, for him it will be much easier if I hand in my 10-20 pages in one pdf-file with 10-20 pages and not 10-20 single-paged pdf-files, cause then he only needs to do the colour-routines and adjustings once and not many times. Now there is the problem, in Elements 8 there is the option to save a psd as a pdf-file, but I don't know how to add the other files and make a pdf with more pages than just one. May be I need to do that with Scribus, a freeware prog.

Hello Barbara!
Your answer just proved extremely helpful. It worked that way. I first created a pse-file in the right document size. Then with copy and paste I imported the first page and flattened it to one layer. Then I chose to create the second pse-page, that shows automatically in the menue then with the pse-file open. Into the second page again with copy and paste I imported the second single sheet and flattened the second page too to one layer and so on. That way it works. Finally I first save in the pse-file and then save the whole thing as pdf.
Very easy to do. Thanks a lot!

Creating a .pdf with different page views

I'm tyring to create a .pdf with different page views. For example as the viewer goes through the .pdf some pages I would like viewed as "single page view" and others "two page view". Is this possible? I'm working with Adobe Acrobate Pro. Thanks for any suggestions.

It's possible to use the Page Open actions to trigger a view mode change but it's messy - if the user tries to override them because they prefer to zoom in, etc. then they'll get very annoyed when things keep resetting.
To create a Page Open action, open the thumbnails panel, right-click on a page, choose Page Properties, then the Actions tab. You can use the Execute a Menu Item tool to fire one of the view modes.

How to create 200 individual pdfs instead of 1 pdf with 200 pages? (Page breaks?)

Hi,
Is there a way to create multiple reports using SQL Reporting Services (2008 R2) using one dataset, instead of one long report.
For example, running a batch of customer statements or bills etc.
At the moment, our report runs well but creates one pdf with 200 pages, instead of 200 individual pdfs with each page being for a different customer.
I was thinking there might be a page break setting to create separate outputs but haven't been able to find anything.
Any advice appreciated
Thanks!
Lea

Hi Lea,
If we want to export the report to the multiple PDF files based on each page, I suggest you can use data-driven subscription which provides a way to use dynamic subscription data that is retrieved from an external data source at run time. For more detail
information about data-driven subscription, please refer to the following document:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159150(v=sql.110).aspx
Besides, we can also use the SQL Server Reporting Services web services to render reports to specify folders. For more details, please see the similar thread:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/ecef8799-a0a5-42dd-97f8-bc269a7daa87/ssrs-multiple-pdf-files-for-a-single-report-agent-commision
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Problem Saving PDF with Opacity Masks in Illustrator CS3

I'm having trouble exporting an Illlustrator CS3 file to PDF. I have two layers in the the .ai file that have opacity masks applied. When I save the file as a PDF, the two layers with opacity masks seem to disappear (or they are flattened down to white/100% transparency.) They do not show on screen nor when printing. I've tried opening the saved PDF in Illustrator to investigate, and the layers are still there, but with no opacity mask. Where am I going wrong? I've tried a new file with a simple shape and a simple opacity mask, and it exports fine to PDF. So something is wrong with my file set up, but I can't pinpoint what! I have also tried exporting to various versions of PDF, and nothing works. Help!
Screen cap from Illustrator:
Screen cap of PDF:
Correct (Illustrator) with subtle starburst effect:
Wrong (Acrobat PDf), no starburst!
Thanks for looking!

Not sure what's going on in your file, but it's definately having a problem with the Steaks layer. Trying to release the clipping mask and ungrouping all the layers is having a problem so it might have something to do with the way the streaks layer was built.
Using your file I replaced the streaks layer and put a starburst that's clipped to the icon shape. I've attached two files. One is for Illustrator CC so you can retain the gradient fill on the stroke which is only available in newer versions of Illustrator. The other has the starburst I created expanded so that you can open the file and retain the startburst look.

Creation of PDF with different page sizes

I am generating PDF using Acrobat Distiller from my application from the .ps file. From one machine, the PDF is generated with different page sizes.one page with 8.5*12.99 and other pages with 8.5*11 in the same PDF. However the PDF is created with correct page sizes for all the pages in another machine. The only difference between the machines is the Internet Explorer version. I am using Internet explorere 11.0 and the other machine have a version of 8.0 installed.
Why the difference in page size occured? Is there any dependency on the Internet explorer used while creating the PDF using Distiller? Any help for the issue with the discrepancy in the page sizes is really appreciated.
Thanks!

Acrobat Distiller uses the page size in the PS file. May be a problem of your application which create the PS file.

Saving PDF with Adobe AIR

Hi all,
Currently, I am trying to implement saving PDF function with AIR, similar to above AIR application.
I have created a normal PDF, added formbridge.js inside it. Then display it via a HTML template in my AIR application.
Any idea how I can save the pdf with its content using AIR?
Do I need to ReaderExtended the PDF?
Thanks and regards,
Anh

Thanks a bunch anirudhs for your reply. I believe I did a bad
bad job explaining myself on the initial post.
Basically what I'm having issues with is printing or saving
the state of a scripted PDF form. I'm working on an AIR application
that fills PDF forms from the AIR app. Here is the work flow I
envision for the app:
- Forms are filled in the AIR App
- The fields are stored in a SQLite DB
- Fields are pulled from the DB into a template scripted PDF
File
- Template PDF file should be able to be saved & printed
off with the respective forms field
I have everything working besides the saving & printing
aspect of the application. I can't seem to make it work. Tried
working with the saveAs() but there seems to be some security
issues with calling the saveAs() from the script.
I'm wondering if anyone could give me a hand with this issue.
Thanks.

Exporting to a PDF with facing pages

Please help, I have encounter a problem with InDesign CS4, which I didn't have with CS3 version.
When I export an InDesign document with facing pages into a PDF, it turns it into a PDF document with consecutive pages (spreads are broken into individual pages). I want to keep the facing pages format in PDF as well.
My document is an online newsletter, which can be printed on an office printer. Pages are letter size for convenience
Now, I tried to check "Spreads" in the export to PDF dialogue box and what happened is that Acrobat resized spreads containing 2 facing letter-size pages onto a single letter size page. The cover appears and prints fine, but all the spreads are downsized.
What am I doing wrong????

Thank you very much, I went into Acorbat's file-properties and set it up there and it worked!
but for some reason I never had to change settings in Acrobat with InDesign CS3 documents

What is the issue? When printing a 30x42 drawing PDF with 5 pages. The first drawing prints properly, but none of th eothers do. IF I print each separately, by selecting "current page" they print fine. Oh this is for Acrobat XI Standard.

RE Acrobat XI Standard. When printing a 30x42 Drawing PDF with more than 1 page only the first page prints properly the rest are not the proper size or centered. Did I miss a setting? For now I can work around it by printing each page using the "Current Page" setting, but this delays me when there is more than 20 pages etc..

I am able to generate a PDF (complete with title page, toc, chapter, backmatter, index) using fop 0.25. However, when I try to create a pdf in FM 9.0, I get only the chapter. How can get the others through FM 9.0. Please provide a solution.

Unfortunately, default FM9 DITA does not support the automatic creation of the special bookmap files (toc, index, etc.). The only way to do it in FM9 is to manually add those generated lists to the book after you've generated it.
DITA-FMx 1.1 provides the ability to automatically create FM generated lists as well as apply numbering and pagination (and many other properties) automatically when you generate a book from a bookmap. For more info and to download a trial ..

Saving PDF with Form

I've got a PDF with several form fields, if I fill them out and save the PDF, all of the fields go blank again. I have access to Acrobat Pro on another computer so I can tell that this PDF has no protections enabled, what's wrong?

Adobe Reader does not allow saving filled-in forms, either with Save, or Print to PDF. Some forms don't fill properly with Preview (at least they didn't in Tiger), and Preview doesn't have many features (such as field descriptors), so Adobe Reader is sometimes the only option. The virtual printer lets you save filled-in form with Adobe Reader. If the form works with Preview, then the built-in Print to PDF can be used.

Combine jpegs to create PDF with blank page background

Hello, I have hundreds of newspaper scans of various sizes, same dpi, and I want to combine them to create one PDF with each of them on a blank 8.5 x 11 background page? like in a scrapbook. Is this possible using only acrobat? Or does it need to be done on a program like indesign? Appreciate any thoughts.

Here's a script that you can use to create the blank document with a button on each page. When a page is clicked, it will prompt you to import an image (it defaults to PDF, so select JPG from the from the dropdown) to use for the icon. You can set the "num_pages" variable from 100 to whatever amount you need. To run the script, open the JavaScript console (Ctrl+J), copy the entire script below, paste it into the console, select all of the lines, and press Ctrl+Enter. This will run the script and the result will be a 100 page PDF:
// Start of script
// Create a new document and make the page a template
var newDoc = app.newDoc({nHeight: 11 * 72, nWidth: 8.5 * 72});
var t1 = newDoc.createTemplate("t1", 0);
// Add a button to the template and set the various properties
var f = newDoc.addField("icon", "button", 0, [0, 11 * 72, 8.5 * 72, 0]);
f.buttonPosition = position.iconOnly;
f.borderStyle = border.s; // Solid
f.buttonAlignX = 50;
f.buttonAlignY = 50;
f.buttonFitBounds = true;
f.buttonScaleHow = scaleHow.proportional;
f.buttonScaleWhen = scaleWhen.tooBig;
f.lineWidth = 0;
f.fillColor = color.transparent;
f.strokeColor = color.transparent;
f.setAction("MouseUp", "event.target.buttonImportIcon();");
// Create multiple pages based on the template
var num_pages = 100;
for (var i = 0; i < num_pages; i += 1) {
t1.spawn(i, true, false);
// Remove the template page
newDoc.deletePages(newDoc.numPages - 1);
// End of script
Save the file that is generated. After you populate all the buttons by clicking on each page, you can flatten the pages by entering the following line in the console and executing it as you did with the previous script:
// Convert button appearances to regular page contents.
flattenPages();
Save to a different file and you should have what you want. Post again if anything isn't working.
Note that it would be possible to automatically import the images, but you'd need to create a list of the files you want to import and amend the script a bit. If interested, I could show an example of how you'd do this.
