Problem with saving PDF in Preview

When I open PDF file in Preview in OS 10.5. (make changes) and save it as PDF again, this pdf file does not display corectly on PC. Fonts are missing. When I save in Acrobat, everything is correct. I looked on the information about saved pdf, and Prewiev inserts some fonts to PDF. Acrobat reader on PC tells me, that some fonts can be removed and pdf may be not dispayed correctly. This problem is only in Leopard, because in Tiger was everything fine. Does anybody know any solution? Thank you.

I see this same behavior, and it is a serious pain for us LaTeX writers.
I have found a rather annoying work-around: if you manually close the file before re-opening it (Cmd-W), it will honor this "Start on the last viewed page" option and behave like it used to.
Of course, then it starts off at the start zoom level... but, at least, with a large project, you're not having to opt-cmd-g ("go to page") and remember page numbers.

  • Problems with saving pdf as a word doc

    hello, i
    recently upgraded to acrobt x pro, and i went to convert a one-page pdf into a word doc.  i went to "file,"
    "save as," "word document, and when i went to view
    the word doc, the format/layout/font, etc. was completely garbled.  what could i be doing wrong?  thanks!

    Your problem is likely with the PDF not having the tags that provide the format information you are expecting. Such information is not needed for the PDF, but is used for the conversion back to WORD. You could try converting a file from DOC to PDF and back to DOC with both a print to the Adobe PDF printer and PDF Maker to get the format info. See how they compare and you should get the idea.

  • Problem with saving pdf files to Mac

    Hi All
    I'm having a problem with pdf files.  When I get sent a pdf fielder email I can open it with no problems but I cannot seem to save it successfully to my Mac. I've tried opening file and doing a 'save as', copy and pasting and dragging and dropping but I keep getting the following message
    Adobe Reader could not open 'filename.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
    Any ideas how I sort this out?

    Can you use your email client's Save Attachments feature to save the file?

  • Problems with secure PDFs in Preview

    I recently saved and secured a PDF with Adobe Acrobat 9. While the document is secure when I open it with Adobe Acrobat or Reader, there is no security when I open up the same document with Preview... So much for the 256 bit encryption...
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?
    Thanks,
    Barry

    Wow! So much for all the money Adobe put into securing PDFs...
    Thanks for your help.

  • Is anyone else having problems with saving PDFs to disk?

    Recently, I have not been able to download and save PDF files on my iMac. Every time I download a file it is blank. The problem started several weeks ago and I thought at the time that the file was somehow protected. However, I successfully did a download and save to my old iMac G4 without a problem and opened it in Acrobat Professional 7, copied the file over to my Intel iMac with OSX 10.8.2 and opened the file successfully in Acrobat 10.
    Here are Acrobat specs
    Architecture: i386
    Build: 10.1.5.33
    AGM: 4.21.25
    CoolType: 5.8.121
    JP2K: 2.0.0.26663
    ADM: 10.01x33
    The same problem exists on my MacBookPro running identical software and OS as my Intel iMac.
    I faithfully upgrade my Mac OS software with each new release and do the same with my Adobe Suite software. The problem has to reside with the OSX 10.8.2 since things work normally on my old iMac G4.
    Does anyone know of a fix for this? I'm not going through the uninstall and reinstall process without exproring all avenues first.
    Dan

    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    If that doesn't work...
    To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
    Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
    Does it work in the new account?

  • Problem with refreshing pdf in preview

    I have a pdf open in preview which I am generating using latex. Every time I generate it, preview takes me to the first page. But in Leopard, it used to stay in the same page, which was very useful in checking the changes I made to the pdf. Is it a bug or a feature? Very annoying though.
    I preview preferences, I have checked "Start on the last viewed page", but still no luck.
    Any help?

  • Problem with saving pdf in CS5 and opening it in CS4

    I have just got an Illustrator CS5 – my colleague’s works in CS4. We are always working directly in pdf-format.
    If I make a pdf in CS5, my colleagues can’t open this pdf in Illustrator CS4.
    I know that I can save to CS4 if I work in AI-format, but I would like to continue working in pdf.
    Have any of your tried the same and can you help me with this? Thanks

    Thank you for your reply :o)
    It could have been so nice if it was possible to decide which version I would save my pdf in like it is possible in Autodesk products to save to an older version of there dwg-files.
    All can read pdf but there are so few who can read AI. So If I want to work in CS5, I have to save in AI to my CS4 colleaques and in pdf to my pdf-reading customers.

    A "quick" fix that worked for me was to uninstall Adobe... then download the base install for Adobe Reader 11.0.
    Then download each of the individual updates and run them sequentially. 
    I've installed back up to the last security update which is version 08 and have been able to do normal Save As operations.
    You will have to disable automatic updates in order to stay at version 08 until Adobe resolves this issue in a later release.

  • Problems with Saved Watermarks - Wrong Font Size

    Hi,
    I am having problems with "Saved" Watermarks, as when I selected them they have the wrong font size.
    I created a Watermark (Draft) to be placed on the lower right
    corner of a PDF, using font Arial-10. This watermark has been save using the "Save Settings..." in Watermarks.
    When I add this this "saved" watermark to a new PDF, the font size is wrong
    (much much bigger), even though the Add Watermark windows reports Arial-10. Only by a selecting a different font size and changing it back to the saved font size (10) I get the correct Font Size in the PDF.
    I had a similar problem with the placement, but managed to solve that by setting the Preference>User&Guide to the used Unit (Page&Ruler = centimeters). But for the font size I can't find anything in the preference.
    Any Help or Suggestions ?

    Sorry forgot to add, I am using

  • Problems with some PDF files

    Hi,
    I have problems with some PDF files. After clicking on link to the file Safari shows me insted of normal document (which is working on Windows) hashes, numbers etc like it was a problem with coding or something. First I was using Preview, I though that maybe installing Acrobat Reader with plugins will solve the problem, but ofcourse it didn't. Did somebody has this same problem?

    Back up all data.
    Please triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    defaults delete -app Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Quit Safari. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear below what you entered. You can then quit Terminal. Test.

  • Problem with "Saved with Id" in Reports

    Hi Group,
    I am having problem with "Saved with id" functionality.
    1.) I created a Query in sq01 as "query1".
    2.) Copied the source code of this query into a z program
    ztest_query.
    3.) Now executed the report "ztest_query" in background with "Saved with Id" checkbox checked and id as "1234".
    4.) Now where/how can I search for this id "1234" to retrieve my list.
    5.) Normally if I dont change the report name and use the program aq*query1 which is self generated one, this works and I am able to retrieve the saved list from Transaction
    SQ01.
    Please let me know how this can be achieved.
    Regards
    Ankur Bhandari

    Ankur,
    Did you find a solution for this problem. Not many seem to be using this "Save list to id" functionality.
    Thanks
