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!!!

Problem with imported text from quark

Hi everyone
I have imported files from quark version 4 off a mac to Indesign cs4 on a windows PC. everything is fine apart from the text being a little messed up so i am happy enough with that. The problem is that when i drag and drop or copy and paste into a new document all the images will move over but new text will not work with the images.
By this i mean that when i try to type something over or near the graphics the graphics just vanish! you can drag them over the image and they vanish, then when you drag them away again them reappear!
Also the shapes that i move over have a thin white border on them where as the shapes that i create directly do not have this boarder.
Any help that you cold give me on this would be great!
Thanks in advance!!

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!

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!

Problem with importing videos from Aperture

I was able to import videos from Aperture within FCPX. However, when I tried to import some older videos, the following error message appeared:
"No importable files
None of the selected files or folders can be imported. Change the selection and try again."
I noticed that all the video files older than about three months didn't work, and all the newer files worked, regardless what camera it was from (D800, iPhone, m4/3 camera)
I opened up the aperture library package and compared the permission for one video file that I could import, and one that I couldn't. They have the same permissions, so it isn't a permission issue. I tried exporting the problem video from Aperture and importing it into FCPX, and it accepted it.
The other thing I've noticed that is for the files that I imported from Aperture library, the video files in the Original Media folder are only around 250 KB. It seems that they are only aliases. All the more reason I need to find a way to drag videos from Aperture into FCPX, as the files aren't duplicated.
Does anybody know a solution to this problem?
Thanks a lot!

Aperture drag'n'drop export only creates reference movies (which can break!)
Background of your issue:
If you simply drag your video file(s) from the Aperture window to the Desktop (in my case a MP4 from my Galaxy Nexus, the original having 70 MB), Aperture does not copy the master or the version file, but instead it creates a reference movie file, which is a very small video container file (in my case: MP4, 26 KB) with no AV-content but only a reference to your master video file in your Aperture library, ~/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary/Masters/YYYY/MM/DD/YYYYMMDD-hhmmss/filename.
So by principle it acts like an "alias", but technically it is not a filesystem alias (filepath, ID within filesystem (inode), metadata), but a so called reference movie. If you meanwhile deleted/manipulated the master file from the Aperture Library, or changed something from the filepath (volume name, home directory name, etc) import in Final Cut Pro will fail of course, as it loads a mere reference movie, and fails to load the AV-content, as the master movie file cannot be found at the given filepath anymore.
Solution 1 (for the "tidy" users):
Make sure the filepath to your Aperture Library does not change (volume name, user name, custom library name), and hopefully Apple does not change their Aperture Library filepath scheme in future updates. Then the reference movie will remain pointing to a valid master file.
Solution 2:
In Aperture, select the file(s)
File > Export Master (CMD-SHIFT-S)
Save file(s) to your desired destination
Import them into within Final Cut Pro
Of course this creates unnecessary duplicate content, which is specially painful with video files, which tend to be large.
Solution 3 (advanced users):
Locate the master file (within the Aperture Library.aplibrary bundle) and import that in Final Cut Pro.
The import dialogue of many Mac OS X apps does not allow browsing into bundles.
A possible work around is to open the bundle in Finder (right click > Show package contents), locate the file, and then drag'n'drop it onto the import dialogue of Final Cut Pro.

Problem with Rescue & Recovery and older version backups

I have R&R version 4.23 on a R61i running XPP. Two problems:
1) It will not recognize older version backups on external HD. Any way to retrieve a few files only from old backup?
2) How do I delete an older version backup on internal HD which is not accessible but taking up lot of space? It seems to be hidden but is there.
Thanks!

hey harryr,
could you provide a screenshot of any error that you're receiving when you tried to use the R&R ?
Curious to know, those backup that you have, was it done before upgrading to R&R v4.23 ? and if you copied the backup file from external to internal HDD, are you able to recover the backup ?
For number 2, is that backup located on the C:\ ? If it is, try changing the view to show all hidden files.
Also, do check if your system is updated too.

Problem with converted PDF from OTF

Hello,
im having a problem with character interpretation in PDF document when i convert it from OTF.
At the moment im using Arial true type font in my smartform, im using function module CONVERT_OTF to convert OTF to PDF.
When i open PDF document with Adobe reader it looks fine, but the problem is when im trying to convert PDF file to other format for example PNG, or trying to copy and paste text from PDF document.
im getting Klaipìda instead of Klaipėda, it seems that baltic symbol "ė" is interpreted like "ì", other baltic symbols are interpreted as they should, there is problem only with character "ė".
have anyone faced that kindof problem? or maybe anyone know the solution for this problem? if so please tell me.
Best regards,
Rimantas Sebeckis.

Hi Rimantus,
Did you check the fonts installed in your system,,,
As PDF is a unchangeable format, it doesnt depend upon the installed fonts in the system,,
but when you copy, you need some fonts in system,, if not you will get the same problem,,,
Thanks & regards,

What should be the next step?
Its iMovie HD and 10.4.4

Import vault from older version

I have a vault created on an old Mac Book (this has died and is not accessible to me) that I need to restore onto a different computer with Aperture 3.0 on it.
i have tried to restore the vault but get an error that the vault was created with and older version and to import the vault instead. I click import and get the very (un)helpful error message that Aperture was unable to find the necessary information to import the vault.... and nothing.. that's it, no further clue.
How can I import this vault?
Regards
Chris

Kirby, Thanks - I can't upgrade to 3.3.1 because according to the download page http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1553 that version required OS X 10.7.4 or later. I have OS X 10.6.8 and my version of Aperture is 3.1.2 which I think is as up to date as I can get on that version of OSX. The last time I checked for software updates nothing was download for Aperture as I recall, a couple of months ago.
I can't update that computer (a Mac Mini) again at the moment because it doesn't have internet access. It is installed on a boat, in a marina in deepest darkest Uruguay. I can only get internet access by lugging a laptop (windows) somewhere. I certainly can't upgrade to OS X Lion.
Anyway I tried to follow your instructions with what I have and these are the dialogues that I received.
I created the new library
Then did File - Vault - Restore Library ( note that Restore vault is not an option)
I choose to restore the library
I then get the error message
"Photos 1 backup" was created by an older version of Aperture, and can not be restored by this version.
To import the contents of the vault,select the import button
I click import, and receive this error message
Library import error
The library connot be imported because some the data required for import could not be found
The file is on a hard drive which according to the info is "Mac OS extended (journaled)"
Hmmmm just noticed that if I get the info for the vault file it shows as only 4k... is that just showing the folder size or is the vault empty?

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.

Problem with importing movies from my Sony HDR-SR5

Having trouble importing movies from my Sony HDR-SR5. The computer is reading HD camcorder but Iphoto is coming up and not Imovie. I don't have any still pics and SD movies. When I go into imovie camcorder does not show up. Any suggestions?

Did your "Camcorder" ever worked with iMovie? If so, what version were your running?
What version of iMovie are you currently running: iMovie 8.0.5 or iMovie 8.0.6?
What version of the OS are you currently running: 10.6.2 or 10.6.3?

Problem with importing images from Nikon S60

I have been using photoshop elements for several years - currently on Version 8. I've had no issues importing images from my Nikon D70 - I choose the option to store the images in folders by "shot date" and this has always worked.
My wife has started using a Nikon S60 to take photos - when trying to import these photos they all end up in a folder with today's date. I've treid a couple of times to be sure that I didn't make a mistake in setting the import options. I've checked the "properties" of the images and the date their shows the shot date...
any ideas?

Seems unusual behavior. I guess the obvious thing to do is to simply rename the folder although that’s a bit annoying.
Have you tried selecting one of the other shot date formats from the downloader, perhaps to match the camera date format?

IPhoto version 9.4.1 problem with imported photos from camera card reader

My wife imported a lot of photos from a camera card reader. The imports show up fine when she launches iPhoto, but when you double click on one, nothing happens. It doesn't go to full size. It just doesn't respond for any of the pictures imported. The rest of her pictures behave normally....when clicked on they enlarge just not the ones recently imported. I did a repair disk permissions and no luck there. What can we do to these pictures to make them behave normally when selected and double clicked?

Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder Window should open with the file selected. Does it?
