Problem saving as PDF from MS Publisher

Window's 7 (ver 6.1)
MS Publisher 2007 (SP2)
I have a postcard document that I'm trying to save as a PDF. The document saved fine but I had to change the size slightly (increased the custom size from 4 x 6 to 4.25 x 6.25). Now, instead of the full document, here is what I get (about 1/2 missing):
Sending to my printer works fine, saving as JPEG or PNG works fine...it's just the PDF that drops the image off the page. Help?!?
Thanks.

I would look to create an output paper size that is fixed (e.g. A3) and see if the contents fits better this way?
All the best,
Jon

Problem with creating pdf from Microsoft Publisher 2013

We are having problems in creating pdfs from Microsoft Publisher2010- When the function 'Adobe PDF' is selected and 'Print' is clicked on nothing happens. The progress bar just sits there for several minutes without creating a pdf. We have to click on cancel and when this is done this crashes Microsft Publisher.
I have repaired this using the repair facility in Acrobat 9. I have also uninstalled Acrobat 9 and reinstalled this.
I have also uninstalled Adobe Reader XI and reinstalled Adobe Reader 9.
Before uninstalling Acrobat I also ran the updates but this didnt help either.
This is on a Windows 7 PC (64-bit)
Adobe Acroabt 9 Pro Extended
Microsoft Publisher 2010.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

MS Publisher 2010 is not supported by the Acrobat 9 Family; and the PDFMaker extension for Publisher has been removed completely from the Acrobat XI Family, so upgrading won't help either. Sorry!

When saving a PDF from a FrameMaker book, is it possible to set document filenames as bookmarks in the PDF?

When saving a PDF from a FrameMaker book, is it possible to set document filenames as bookmarks in the PDF? Currently when I have a Framemaker book that I want to save as a PDF, I choose Save Book As and then choose PDF for the file format. A dialog box comes up in which I can choose the Bookmarks tab and choose which tagged content I want to be made into bookmarks in the PDF file. What if I would rather have the filename of a document rather than the chapter title be a bookmark in the PDF? Is that possible? Where would I choose that option? Thanks!

There are two ways that you could do this. You can either use postscript text frames and enter the correct pdfmark entries to show the file name with the corresponding actions (i.e. where to go in the PDF) or you can use hidden text in FM and the "Filename (Short) " variable in a unique paratag to be picked up by FM's bookmark creation.
To go the pdfmark route, see http://www.pdflib.com/fileadmin/pdflib/pdf/pdfmark_primer.pdf for details and also consult the Adobe Pdfmark Reference manual (http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdfmark_reference.pdf).
The hidden text route would use FM's Color Views to specify a colour as Invisible. This will make the content visually disappear from the screen (and any output), but FM will still be able to read the contents of any text that is coloured with the Invisible colour(s).
1. Pick or create a colour that you want to be invisible. [Magenta is usually a good bet and stands out visually].
2. Set that colour to be invisible in View 1 and visible in View 6. [you can use the shortcut <esc> v 1 and <esc> v 6 to toggle between the views.]
3. Create a paratag to use for the filename and set the font colour to use the invisible colour.
3. In the title of each chapter file, drop an anchored frame that is set to be outside of the text frame [so it won't interfere with any other content].
4. In that AFrame, insert a text frame and use the invisible paratag defined in step 3.
5. Insert the Filename (Short) variable in that text frame.
6. Repeat steps for all files to be included in the bookmarks.
When creating the PDF bookmarks, select only the paratag used for the invisible colour.
Don't forget to toggle the View to be invisible (i.e. <esc> v 1 - this also works at the book level for all files in the book).

I have installed Lion and have problems to print PDF from prewiev.

I have installed Lion and have problems to print PDF from prewiev. When trying to print Prewiev locks. Anyone out there with the same problem?

Hello David and Nicole
I just installed Lion on my iMac, which was purchased in 2007, and I cannot print from Preview; it keeps locking up and not responding. So, I have to force quit Preview. I have been sending error reports to Apple. I suggest everyone who has this problem, send error reports!
I can print from other applications, like Pages, with my Canon Laserjet. I do not think it is a printer issue becasue I can print in other application.
I took your advice and installed Adobe reader. Now I can print pdf's.
Thanks
Ed

Trouble saving a pdf from In Design with Illustrator files linked.

I have trouble saving a pdf from In Design. Most of the files i've linked are Illustrator files with size up to 70mb.
I am getting out of memory message The In Design file isn't that big - about 9mb.
HELP!!!!!!

It did not help to close and reopen it.
Not sure what you mean with exporting in chunks but if you mean exporting page for page , so it didn't work either.
I think that i'll try to reduce the size of Illustrator files , but I 'm not sure what will be the optimum size for that In Design won't crush again.
Or maybe i should make the presentation in illustrator instead? It take some time to save pdf from illustrator when the original file is about 90mb, but still it works.

I have a problem creating a pdf from within Firefox using the print to function.

Problems with sending PDF from iPad to PC?

I am having problems sending a PDF from an iPad. The email is sent and can be read on any Apple device, however it is not viewable on a PC. To complicate things more, the first sending of the email to the PC in not viewable, once it is forwarded to another, the email is viewable just as on an Apple device. I have had this problem with to different apps which led me to belive Mail was suspect. I removed the mailbox and re-installed it with no fix. I think my next move is to reset the iPad. Has anyone had the same problem and come up with a solution?

I've had exactly the same issue
I had (mistakenly) believe the issue had been resolved its new app updates but it hasn't
Today I emailed a signed document using SignNow app. Mindful of previous iPad PDF compatibility issues, I sent myself a copy to my gmail account that I have on my MacBook
Everything appeared to be fine so I then emailed it to the recipient (using a PC) who promptly emailed back to say they hadn't received anything!
This is the second time within two weeks.
Eventually I had to email it to my Mac email account, open in Adobe then 'save as' PDF the. Email it back to my iPad email account so I could then forward onto the recipient.
I had originally believed this to be an app issue but having used SignNow as well as TypeOn now realise it's something peculiar about Mac/PC formatting.
SORT IT OUT APPLE!

Intermittent problem saving a pdf form

I have created a 17 page PDF form in LiveCycle Es with many dynamic features, such as adding or subtracting more lines to a table. The whole document is about 700KB ( 800 after being partially filled in) in size. I put fillable password protection on it and ran it thru Adobe Extension, checking Basic Fill-in and Final.
Most users are happy with it except two people are having problems saving it to their computer. Both downloaded it from Firefox to their computers, then opened it and began typing. Sometimes they are able to save their work and other times not. One was able to do a Save As and rename it, but that didn't even work for the other. One was getting an error message saying to the effect that the volume for the file was externally altered and cannot be saved.
They are both using Reader 8 or 9 and one has Vista while the other has XP. I have downloaded the form at work and at home and cannot duplicate their problem so I suspect the problem is at their end.
Any ideas of what could be causing this?

I think have a similar question as you answered here. But I want to just make sure I am understanding your response.
I have created a PDF form in LiveCycle and saved it as an Adobe Static PDF form. When I supply this form to my users. The only way they can fill it out and save it is they must have Adode ACROBAT. The free Adobe Reader will not allow a user to fill out the form and then save it electronically. They can only fill out the form in Reader and then print it out. Is this correct?
So any one I want to fill out the form and save it electronically will need to have Adobe Acrobat and at least the Standard addition...which costs money.

Problem with exporting PDF from Indesign CS6

Hi,
I recently registered & installed CS6 on my computer (Last week!), and I seem to have problems with Indesign, which is the main reason for my buying the product.
The problem is that whenever I try to save & export a file as PDF from Indesign I get an error message (See attached file).
The files are saved with 0KB size, and so the Acrobat reader can't open them for preview.
This really interrupts my work, and backs up the entire comapny schedule.
I already tried updating, and uninstalling&re-installing the suite - but no luck.
Any help would be appreciated, and we need it ASAP.
Thanks in advance,

Without proper system info and details about what PDF settings you actually used and how and where you save your files, nobody can say anything. You could simply be doing something silly like using PDF/A, but trying to enforce high-res pictures or whatever. In any case, ask in the ID forum.

Saving a PDF from a site

Hello,
When I save a PDF from the web and click "Save As", there is a line in the box that says "save to online account". There is no option to remove that (check box etc.). Does this mean that my files are being saved somewhere online? I do not want that at all (still refusing the Cloud )!
Thank you so much in advance for the help!

You can save the file to local disc. You don't need use a online account.

Can I use Reader X to draw freeform lines on documents I "saved as PDF" from Word?

I would like to use the feature described as follows on the Adobe website: "Review documents with a complete set of commenting tools such as sticky notes, highlighting, lines, shapes, and stamps."
According to the website, Adobe Reader X can use this feature if the PDF has had that option enabled when it was created in more full-featured version of Acrobat.
I would like to know, Does a document that I've saved as a PDF from Word (using Save As) count as having that feature enabled?
Thank you,
James

With PDF files created using Word(Save As), you can only add sticky notes and use highlighting.
You will have to use Adobe ACrobat to create a PDF with has Commenting enabled for Reader also.

Problems printing to PDF from PPT 2K7

Hi All,
I am wondering if someone here can help me. I have a user that is having an issue printing to Adobe PDF from Powerpoint 2007. He can save the file as a PDF but wants to print it so he can get a better resolution.
Office 2007 is installed on an Dell 980 XP machine SP3...
Adobe CS4 Design Premium is also installed.
When selecting 'Adobe PDF' printer and clicking OK the process starts but then crashes PowerPoint and bombs out... The error log generated saya this...
%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
%%[ Error: syntaxerror; OffendingCommand: --nostringval-- ]%%
Stack:
/mFS
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
His colleague has the same software installed on a different machine and it works fine. I also setup a new laptop with everything installed for him and he had the same issue there... We don't use roaming profiles, so really don't understand this at all.
Would someone here be able to help me out with the error log above?
Many Thanks,
Matt

Is this problem with every ppt file? Can you create a PDF through the Acrobat Ribbon (click Acrobat in the PPT 2k7 menu and then click create PDF)?
Can you share your ppt file with us so that we can reproduce the issue at our end.

Problem with imported pdfs from older version

I'm working in CS4. The InDesign document I'm working on was originally done in an older version of InDesign (not sure which). It contains imported pdfs that were created in CS2 and CS3. When I export to pdf the older imported pdfs don't display properly on my client's PC - the type is not there, only boxes with question marks - but the pdf looks fine on my screen. I upgraded from CS2 to CS4. The only way I've gotten around this is to export the CS4 InDesign document as an .INX file, have a friend open it up in CS3 and save down to an .INX file again, open the doc up in CS2, create the pdf from CS2, and open it in the older version of Acrobat. Then my client sees the type clearly on their PC
I'm using Suitcase (thought it was a font issue, but I don't think so now as the fix seemed to be between the CS versions.
Anyone else have this problem and/or a better solution? I'd like to be able to simply export a pdf and be done with it.
Thanks!

Thats it thank you!
There was a text wrap applied to all the graphics. its working perfectly now!!
Thank you again!!!
