Problems converting images to PDF or PDF A1B (OS is already english)

Hello,
I'm trying to convert images with the PDF Generator Elements. I installed it on Windows Server 2003 ENU with Office 2003 (English version) and Photoshop CS2 Tryout (English version).
I tried to convert .jpg, .gif, .bmp and .tif into PDF or PDF/A with always the same result: 'conversion timed out'. I searched the forums, however all I found was that point with the English OS. I already changed that, but it is still not working (however the .doc and .xls conversion is working now). Any hints to configurations, places to start to search for errors (there is nothing useful in the jboss logs) etc. would be really appreciated.
I also tried it via watched folders, with the same result.
Regards, Karin

Hello,
The only thing I can suggest right now is check the settings in your watch folder and double check that the following are set to '*', meaning any file type
'Specify the file extensions of file types accepted for this folder, separated by commas. *Allowed extensions:'
Also check the following that you purchased the right software:
http://www.adobe.com/products/server/pdfgenerator/pdfs/ds_pdfgenerator.pdf
For example, the proffessional version of PDF Generator can be used to convert any form of file, from image to office documents such as word and excel.
Notice that Postscript can only be used to convert ps and prm files. Hopefully, this will help

Problem converting images to PDF

Hi, I'm having some problems with Acrobat PDF Maker from within word. I have Acrobat 9 and when I convert a document that has EMF images in it it doesn't convert the images fully and bits are left out (looks like it's missing layers if that makes sense). If I use bitmaps it works and it's also fine if I actually go to print and choose Adobe PDF (I don't do this normally because PDF maker is so much quicker). Any help or suggestions would be appriciated.

It appears like the images were not sized before use and is currently in front of the text. Might you try going back to the image and sizing so there is no white space above. This may be related more to LaTeX than Acrobat. Did you create a PS file from LaTeX, use the LaTeX converter to PS or PDF?

I am having a problem converting a scanned pdf file into Excel.

I am having a problem converting a scanned pdf file into Excel. I do not get the columns and rows to align, just a single column of everything. Any suggestions?

Export makes use of what is "in" a PDF.
Good export is the "silk purse" and, ya know, you canna make a silk purse from a sow's ear (which is what any scanned image in PDF is with regards to export).
The quality of export is dictated by the quality of the PDF. We are taking about the "inner essences" of the PDF (e.g., degree of compliance with the PDF Standard - ISO 32000-1).
So, what goes in goes out or "GIGO".
This has nothing to do with Acrobat or Acrobat's export process.
A well-formed Tagged PDF (compliant to ISO 32000-1 & ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1) provides a PDF that proactively
supports content export by Acrobat.
To get the good stuff from export you start with a well-formed Tagged PDF.
Goodstuff In — Goodstuff Out
or
Garbage In — Garbage Out
"GIGO"
Be well...

Error while converting Image -to- PDF and then to PDF/A

Hi,
I'm trying to convert a Image format(JPEG,bmp,tiff) to PDF and then to PDF/A. I could able to convert Image to PDF successfully.
I'm getting the below error while converting the PDF(that was generated) to PDF/A.
Caused by: com.adobe.livecycle.output.exception.OutputException: Input Document is a already flat PDF Document
at com.adobe.printSubmitter.PrintServer.transformPDF(PrintServer.java:307)
at com.adobe.printSubmitter.service.OutputServiceImpl.transformPDFInTxn(OutputServiceImpl.ja va:518)
at com.adobe.printSubmitter.service.OutputServiceImpl$4.doInTransaction(OutputServiceImpl.ja va:481)
... 106 more
Error OCCURRED: ALC-DSC-000-000: com.adobe.idp.dsc.DSCException: Internal error.
Please give me the solution to convert PDF to PDF/A?

I've just read a footnote in the API documentation which indicates that the transformPDF function cannot be used for this purpose:
"GS_Enterprise said on Nov 24, 2007 at 12:03 PM :
Please note that the parameter "inPdfDoc" for transformPDF assumes that the stream content is an XFA-based PDF, and that it's not an XFA-based PDF with a PDF background (also known as "XFA foreground"). In other words, this function does not convert any input PDF to PDF/A, but only those PDFs generated from an XFA template which does not include any static PDF content as a background."

Keep the same name while converting images to PDF

I am using Automator to convert images to PDF. The new images are in a different folder, but it is asking for an output file name. Can't I tell it to just keep the same name as the old file?

leaving the exact format, can you explain what does it mean by correctly formed Arabic fonts ?
What I did is created a text document in Arabic and converted it to PDF and the same file is converted back to word and the results were all junk..

Problems converting images(gif,tif,bmp,jpg) to PDF

Hi, I installed PDF Generator Elements 7.2.2 using the turnkey installation JBoss,MySql and the JDK 1.4.2_04 included) in Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition with SP1 ENU (evaluation edition) with the same credentials with the one that installed MS Office 2003,but the deployment of the Configuration Manager failed to start the Java service of JBoss..I changed the logon credentials for the JBoss for Adobe Livecycle(Local System Account) and run again the configuration Manager..This time Java Service did start and the database was initialised but I could not convert anything to PDF..So I changed back the logon credentials(of the JBoss for Adobe LiveCycle service) to the one that installed Office,I waited for the JavaService to start and run again the configuration Manager...This time everything worked out(with the deployment)and seemed to go well..I can convert doc,txt,rtf,xls and so on to PDF..The file types I cannot convert though are the following: bmp,gif,jpg,tif and everything related to Acrobat due to: (JBoss log file) 2007-03-13 05:53:05,031 INFO [STDOUT] Command line '"C:\Adobe\LiveCycle\jboss\j2re1.4.2_04_compiler\bin\javaw.exe"' 2007-03-13 05:53:05,406 INFO [STDOUT] java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.adobe.logging.AdobeLogManagerImpl.init(Ljava/lang/Class;Lcom/adobe/service/Manager;)V 2007-03-13 05:53:05,406 INFO [STDOUT] at com.adobe.service.bslj.Controller.<init>(Controller.java:109) 2007-03-13 05:53:05,406 INFO [STDOUT] at com.adobe.service.bslj.BslJ.initController(BslJ.java:51) 2007-03-13 05:53:05,406 INFO [STDOUT] at com.adobe.native2pdf.bmc.AcrobatConverterServer.main(AcrobatConverterServer.java:67) Any suggestion will be appreciated either on the installation walkthrough or everything in this post.. Thanks in advance, Katerina

In the Filetype Settings for Adobe Acrobat I can see only the :
Specify the file extensions for file types accepted for this application, separated by commas.
Filename Extensions : bmp,gif,e.t.c.
Is this setting available in PDF Generator Elements?
If so,then everything went wrong with the installation...
Thanks,though...

PROBLEM converting word98 to PDF

Hello,
I'm having a problem converting word documents into PDF.
I have a word doc that includes some photos that won't
transmit in email without distoring the text and images.
So I wanted to make it a PDF so its all "fixed" and stationary.
My OS is Panther 3.9
But my Microsoft Word 98 program I use works from Classic (9) system
For whatever reason my Acrobat (OS X3.9) isn't working (worry bout that later) but my Preview works.
I just downloaded a free "Text to PDF" convert program for Mac
it converts the text (but alters it) and won't do the pics AT ALL
plus it has a bunch of random coding poping up in it.
Does someone have the answer to this problem?
Any recommendations on some freeware program downloads?
Thanks - coldgooseman

I appreciate all of your help.
*TO ROAM:*
+*For the document, if you click on Print (Command + P), then choose Save as PDF, does that work?*+
When I go to Print in Micrsoft Word 98 there isn't anything that suggest it cann do that. The winnndoww comes up and there's a tab named "Print" with the ffollowing options I can scroll down & choose:
Document
Document Prperties
Commentsss
Stylessss
Autotext EEEntries
Key Assignments
That’s it, there's nothing anywhere in Microsoft Word 98 that I can find that will allow me to Save as PDF. Besides Print, the options if I go to "Save As" are only:
Document Template
Text Only
Text Only With Line Breaks
MS-DOS TEXT
MS-DOS TEXT With Line Breaks
RICH TEXT FORMAT
UNICODE TEXT
STATIONARY
SPELLER CUSTOM DICTIONARY
SPELLER EXLUSIVE DICTIONARY
HTML Document
WORD 4.0
WORD 5.0
WORD 5.1
WORD 6.0 /95
*TO ALLAN JONES:*
+*consider upgrading to Office X or 2004 so you can do everything in OSX. I've had no trouble making PDFs from OSX Word docs.*+
Yeah I don't have money for that one right now. But I thought surely there was a quick free download I could get somewhere that would do the job.
+*A no-cost option is to save the Word Doc as an rtf file and see if all attributes are preserved. Then open it with TextEdit in OSX and see if it still looks right. If it does, print from TextEdit selecting the "Save as PDF" option.*+
I'll see if I can do that.
+*It's probably worth your while to see if you can get Acrobat working (if it's the OSX version).*+
I swear I had a Acrobat 6 but all I find is Acrobat 3. (I've never had reason to use it until now. I always Just use Preview to look at stuff.
*TO CORNELIUS:*
+*1. How long is this Word document and how many pictures?*+
14 pages
+*2. Does it have a .doc extension at the end of the file name?*+
I just tried that as you suggested and it WAS a little better. That is, the image started off with the right fonts and space right but as it went on it got more and more off.
AND it still didn't show any images (just blank spaces between text bodies.)
+*3. Is this a formal or business type communication, or personal email?*+
Its formal (an official report on a trip which is why I need the photos to be viewable.)
+*4. Are you sending it as an email attachment?*+
YES
+*5. What email are you using e.g. webmail like Hotmail, Apple Mail etc.?*+
Hotmail
+*6. Are you booted in OS X and working in the Classic environment, or booted and working in OS 9?*+
I'm working in OSX3.9 and the Classic Version opens up in it for Microsoft Word 98

How to convert Images in PDF to Microsoft Word text Properly

I have images in PDF and when I try to convert it to Microsoft word, the "check marks (wingdings)" turn into the letter "D" and the rest have a lot of misspelled words.

PDF page content export reflects the "under-the-hood" quality of how the PDF was made.
This of course is driven, in part, by what the authoring application was, how content was mastered and what process was used to actually paint content to the PDF page.
http://talkingpdf.org/each-pdf-page-is-a-painting/
So --- GIGO is operative.
Goodstuff In = Goodstuff Out
OR
Garbage In = Garbage Out.
The export results tell one which of the above is in play.
As well, 'good' export of PDF actually has a prerequisite.
That is one needs a well-formed Tagged PDF.
Tagged PDF has two main design criteria -
Support Accessible PDF.
Support export of PDF page content
(See ISO 32000)
Having an ISO 14289 (PDF/UA) compliant PDF provides the "well-formed Tagged PDF".
Aside from ISO 3200 and ISO 14289 additional useful information is available at AIIM's web site.

Are to trying to use Createpdf service or using Adobe Acrobat service for conversion?
Is it specific to some jpeg images or any jpeg image?
What is the size of the jpeg image you are trying to convert?

Problems with image on PDF output.

In my report, I inserted an image (.jpg format) in the margin section. The background of the image is white. In Oracle Reports Builder, the image was just fine. However, when generating the PDF output, it seems like the image in PDF was mixed with another color, or the background color has been changed. Why?
Due to confidential information, I cannot provide the screenshot here.

Appears to be a case of exceeding the original 100% w/h of the images.
Generally the images should be 'prepped' in size (to match the quality when zoomed). So the starting size of the images/icons on the stage should be scaled smaller - then the zoom will factor to the original size. I hope that made some sense.

Then after I do all of that I get the message "unrecoverable error"
I have created over the past year thousands of JPG files to PDF without problems. I can't seem to create a PDF from these JPG files today. I have tried using just one file and also several files and get the same message each time.
