Problem when converting a 3d Autocad file to a 3d pdf
Hi all,
I am trying to convert a 3d .dwg file from autocad to 3d pdf using adobe 9 pro extended. The file I am trying to convert is actually a TIN from a survey. Within Autocad the TIN shows up as a series of contiguous triangles next to one another. I am able to change this visualisation via the "Visual styles manager" so it looks like a nice shaded surface rather than 1000's of triangles. However when I convert this to 3d pdf the pdf brings in all the triangles outlines rather than showing as a continuous shade (like in autocad). I am following the process of draging the drawing into Adobe then exporting to 3d reviewer and creating a .u3d file by exporting from reviewer. When the data is in 3d reviewer it still looks like it originally did in Autocad. But once I create the pdf from the .u3d file thats when it changes back to a series of triangles.
Does any one have any idea on how I could rectify this problem? I have attached a link to a screen shot I took. On the left is what the data looks like in Autocad (and ultimately what I would like the 3d pdf to look like. And on the right is the 3d pdf that I have managed to create.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Grant

I don't know much about Word these days but I know that Calibri is a MS font. There isn't any way you can stop the warnings. They are to help you. If they are so annoying ask the creator of the Word document to use another font, one that doesn't give you warnings.
If you can get the font you double click on the file and you'll get the possibility to install it. Search for the font on internet or on MS site
"Is there a 'clear all formatting' feature in Pages as there is in Word and would this remove the allegedly hidden Calibri font?!"
No, not that I can see but you can if you paste the content of a Word document and use PAste and Match style get a preset font but that is just for that particular document.

Hyperlink problem when converting Word to PDF
Hi everyone.
I am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard version 7.1.4 on a Windows 2000 environment.
I am using Word XP/2002 SP3.
I have a couple of problems when converting Word to PDF.
When converting a long link which is in 2 lines, PDF just takes one line into account, not considering the whole link
When I have hyperlinks that links to a web page, the link works fine in Word but in pdf, it gets the few words after the url address making the link not work. For example. I have a hyperlink that http://www.google.com/ and after this I have the words: "This is a sample text". The hyperlink in pdf would then become http://www.google.comThisisasampletext
Do you have any ideas how I can correct this?
Thanks.To get the cross references, you have to use Convert to PDF (PDF Maker part of the Acrobat product). However, you first need to go to the print menu and set the printer to the Adobe PDF printer. Close the print menu and then do a reflow and link update of the document (ctrl-A, then F9 I think). This is needed to get the links correct since WORD reflows the document based on the printer (problem with them going to the wrong place).
Printing to the Adobe PDF printer (the step of print to file is not needed, just print to the printer and the rest is automatic) does not include the links. PDF Maker is a PreProcessor for the Adobe PDF printer that adds PDF Marks to the PS file before it is sent to Distiller (OK, the printer when used normally creates a PS file and then invokes Distiller to complete the process - your steps did with the Adobe PDF printer is the same process done manually).
Summary:
1. Fix document after setting the printer to Adobe PDF.
2. Use PDF Maker (create PDF button) -
Problems when converting Office files into forms in Vista
Hi,
I recently purchased Adobe Acrobat X Pro but am having a problem when trying to convert office files (word and excel) into forms on my laptop running Vista.
I open Acrobat and select create or edit form and get the window to select the file which is fine.
I then select to import a file from file system which is ok so I browse and select the appropriate file and select next and I get the below error.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling as well as updating but it had no effect.
I have uninstalled it and installed it on a computer running XP and it all works fine.
PLEASE HELP!!!!Since you seem to be on a 64-bit system, be sure you have updated Acrobat and are not running AA 10.0.0. Can you run PDF Maker (the create PDF button) in WORD?

Column problem when converting files.
When converting a pdf file to excel the columns are corrupted. Data from one column is now spread across two columns.
The ability to convert back to Excel with columns in proper location depends on how the PDF was created. If done in a way to allow going back, the PDF would be tagged with the location information. An alterntative is to use the alt key while selecting a column of the spreadsheet and then copy and paste that to Excel. Repeat for each column. Takes a while, but might be faster than spliting the columns. You might try saving to a csv file and see if a comma or tab is present to differentiate the columns when opening in Excel -- not tried this, but might be worth a try.

"font" problems when converting InDesign file to negative
the printing service we use for our college newsletter, which is done in InDesign CS3, says he is having "font problems" when he turns the file into a negative (the master used for printing paper copies of the newsletter). I use only a standard font, "Times," in various sizes.
he did not have this problem with InDesign CS2, and he is as yet unable to explain exactly what the problems are but said there are 3 pieces of equipment involved that each contribute to the problem: old vs new operating systems (OS) in RIP unit and workstation to newest applications and older RIP unit. (I haven't a clue what any of this means...)
he has asked we create an "outline" of the InDesign file before sending it and believes doing that may help. however, when I create an outline of the document, all of the font turns bright red-- is this what is supposed to happen or am I doing something wrong?
can anyone help me figure out how to help the printer?
FA NEWS editor
(linda)The .sitx file extension is a Stuffit executable, a way of compressing files so that they take less time to transfer. This has nothing to do with your problem.
What I'm recommending is that you Export PDF (File > Export > Adobe PDF). Choose the Press Quality preset and send the resulting PDF to your printer. Scott's suggestion will give you a PDF with outlined type, but before you go that route, try a Press Quality PDF, which will have live type and embedded fonts.
The best reason for sending PDF to your printer is to avoid font problems.

Link problem when converting MS Word to PDF with Acrobat Professional
Hello all,
I have the following problem:
When I have a MS Word document with links to other files inside and I convert it to PDF the links are converted from relative paths to absolute paths.
The problem is created by Acrobat as the links in the MS Word file are relative (I have checked this by moving the different docs to another directory and confirmed that the links still work after the move).
How can I make the paths in the PDF relative again? I know there is a plugin from Evermap (and I can confirm this works) but I do not want to use this plugin (=read: spend another $190 dollars) as the license for the Acrobat Professional is expensive enough . Is there a way I can convert the paths within Adobe Acrobat easily? Or better: can I adjust the settings in Acrobat to a new standard when all converted documents contain relative paths?
Backgroundinfo:
- Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional
- Windows XP (SP2)
- MS Word 2002
Thanks in advance!
BartDear Steve,
I have tried what u suggested: I put all the documents (word + linked documents) into the same folder on the local-drive (C). Then I recreated the links in the word document to be sure they were matching. After that I converted the word document to an PDF and confirmed the links were still working in the PDF document.
Then the biggest challenge: copying the pdf and linked documents to another drive&directory. As you can guess: Unfortunately the links did not work anymore.
Any other suggestions?
If I use the Evermap-tool (30 day-trial) I can look at the links and this is how it is 'coded' in the pdf.
first link: ../../../../test/link_a.pdf
second link: ../../../../test/link_b.pdf
and yes this will work if you put the documents in the directory test in the root of the local-drive but not in a different subdirectory.
Anyone ideas?
Grtz,

I have a 27 min. avi file that has a lot of still imagery with motion effects. When I export this as an .mov file with default settings, there is flickering on some of the landscape imagery. This doesn't occur in the native file. What are the optimal settings to correct this problem and produce the best quality end product on a DVD?
So what are good options for file conversion from mpg? Usually I simply use QuickTime Pro (augmented with to view and occasionally trim and splice video clips from various sources, including web page-linked .mpgs and .flvs This has a lot of limitations - poor picture quality, not recognizing spliced clips, exported files blowing up to as much as 50x the original filesize and more. No doubt the answer is partly, "you get what you pay for" but I'm not sure how much better specific commercial applications will work for me.
When I look at video file properties in any application, e.g. QT or VLC, there are always many parameters I don't think are important, but am not sure. Is there a good simple guide to the structure and hierarchies of various video file types which can help explain and identify the characteristics to look for when setting file conversion controls? -
Got problems when converting video to 640*480 m4v
guys, I got compatibility issues when convert videos to 640*480 h264 m4v.
I tried MepgStreamclip, and the export to mp4 quicktime mov in Quicktime. ALL FAILED.
I followed all these 1.5mbps, 640*480, aac-lc requirements when did the conversion.However, my ipod will not recognize of the files.
I have also noticed that the "Export to Ipod" preset in Quicktime has been changed to 640*480. BUT, what keeps annoying me is the preset is so idiotic!! It ignores the source bps and simply converts everything to 1.5mbps. I got 25mb file after conversion as the source file is 11mb.
Could anyone kindly point out the Right procedure to convert video to ipod format Manually...... I want to have full control when I am doing this.
thanks a lotany suggestions?

Encountered problem when converting from development to runtime environment
1. I ran apxdevrm.sql switch my environment to runtime. Although it seemed to finish successfully, this error was in the log and according to registry, my installation was invalidated(still works though).
drop package wwv_flow_create_flow_api (doesn't seem to exist)
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-04043: object WWV_FLOW_CREATE_FLOW_API does not exist
Entry in dba_registry:
COMP_NAME--Oracle Application ExpressSTATUS
STATUS--INVALID
2. Next, not sure if it had made the switch, I then ran apxdvins,sql to revert back because of problem #1. (later found out that it was still devl environment)
This time, this message appeared in log...
FAILED CHECK FOR TRIGGER BIN$UH58A027El3gRAADutXi8w==$0
(Installation still invalid)
Any ideas?1. Commented "drop package" stmt out on apexdevrm.sql to get rid of non-existent package problem. (probably holdover from v3.0)
2. purged dba_recyclebin to get rid of problem #2.
Dba_registry entry still shows as INVALID... Has anyone else encountered these problems when switching from dev to runtime? (or vice-versa) -
I recently upgraded to Office 2013. Everything seems to be working fine with Acrobat Pro XI, except when I try to combine Word 2013 files into a single PDF, I get this message: "Acrobat does not support the conversion of one or more of your files to PDF. . . ." Please help. Thanks.
I've opened both Word and Excel. The Acrobat ribbon is showing in both programs and I did some test things and they seem to be working fine. However, I still cannot see or use formats other than pdf in the Acrobat Pro program. Is there another setting that needs to be adjusted?

In this forum we mainly discuss questions about Office client questions and feedbacks, issues related to coding are not supported here.
Based on the description, although the question is about converting Word documents, it's more likely to be a permission issue, the question is better to be posted in the IIS.NET forum:
