Interactive pdf from CS5 won't work on Adobe Digitial Editions

I am an ebook publisher creating enhanced ebooks with video, using CS5 to produce interactive pdfs. These work fine on Reader 9, but why won't they work on Digital Editions? This is crucial if they are to be delivered online.

I totally agree with vivrainbow. there is absolutely no point at all in creating an ebook reader if it is not going to display an ebook correctly. It's a complete debacle.
I've just started experimenting with pdf from CS5.5 and found that a pdf which displays and works perfectly in Adobe Reader, does not do so in ADE (and i hate the way ADE displays a watermark which is set to only show at print).
And writing off this complaint as "actually rather special" is actually rather ridiculous. ebook publishers are not in control of the software their end users choose. if someone has a bad experience reading an ebook in ADE they are just as likely to blame it on a crappy ebook file rather than ****** software.

Special Problem- Washed out light PDFs created from Revit- any ideas why?

This may be a very specialty type question… I have posted it for my Revit discussion folks… but it is to do with Adobe’s software… so I thought I would try here as well.
The issue is occurring when creating PDFs from Revit 2010.
The issue is that when we print to PDF the pen weights that we see when the PDF is created do not match the look of the Revit Pen weights and shades are worse… they are lighter… in both cases they lighten up… which gives us a washed out drawing…
Hope that someone has seen this and may have a quick fix… This is really been a big issue… and it would be great to have it fixed…
Hope there are some Revit users on your form… or perhaps someone who may have an idea why Adobe may act so oddly with Revit…
Thanks…

Oh... forgot to note... we are using
Adobe reader 9 Pro

Text layers not saved correctly as PDF from PS?

I frequently save layouts I do in Photoshop as PDF's. Lately I very often will discover the text does not display correctly in the PDF. One or two lines of text will display as white with a thin black outline, rather than as the basic solid black I'd specified.
I work on a Windows 7 machine with the current version of PS. The text is on layers when I save the file to PDF (from PS), but I do not include the layers in the PDF, so they should be flattening down.
Any ideas why this happens? I noticed a few weeks ago when it was also doing this that I updated the program a day later and the PDF's were not exhibiting this issue. But, now it's starting again. A big timewaster for me.
Thanks for any suggestions offered.

Text doesn't flatten until you tell it to. In fact that may be the problem here - you are telling the PDF maker to not retain vector text and when it tries to flatten, some layer style or something else gets in the way. Try to play with the PDF options. also manaulyl flatten the document in PS before saving to PDF...

Buttons not exporting to PDF from CS5

Howdy, all. I've a problem exporting documents containing buttons to PDF. Specifically, CS5 doesn't export interactive buttons placed in my InDesign document to interactive buttons in a PDF file; they show up, instead, as simple, non-interactive graphics. (No pointing fingers, no actions.)
This is true for all documents I have created in or imported into CS5.
As a test, I went back to CS4 and created a document with a single button chosen from the "Sample Buttons," to which I attached the "Next Page" action. Exporting to PDF from CS4 works fine; I get a functioning Next Page button in the resulting PDF file. Opening the same InDesign document in CS5 and exporting with the same settings to PDF yields a non-functioning button graphic appearing on the PDF page.
Opening the PDF file in BBEdit, I see that there is no "Fields" entry in the PDF file's Catalog dictionary, so it seems as though the button is, indeed, being exported into the PDF file as a simple graphic.
What obscure CS5 setting (presumably hiding in plain sight) am I missing?
By the way, CS5 does export the buttons correctly to swf.
Thanks much.
- John

In CS5 you have to change the export type to an 'Adobe PDF (Interactive)' to get the buttons to work.
Bit of a pain because you can't save presets like you can with the standard PDF export, but you can specify some of the PDFs view settings at the same time. In my view they should have just added all that functionality to the standard PDF export, but perhaps that wasn't possible. However it was a dud decision to remove working button export from the other PDF export.

Saving to previous versions from CS5

Checked out the launch this morning and am definitely interested in stepping up to CS5 from CS3. However, I often need to exchange native files with vendors who I'm sure won't upgrade. Is it going to be possible to save or export back to CS3 from CS5 or will I need CS4 as a step in-between??

We won't go to CS5 if Adobe has decided not to do away with this workflow obstacle. The .inx system where a CS5 document has to be saved as an exchange document, which has to be opened in CS4 and saved as an exchange doc, which has to be opened in CS3 and saved as an exchange doc in order to open in CS2 is nuts. No reason to upgrade anyone if it means more of that.

Installation assistance from Adobe is free. They can make sense out of the message you got. I would contact them.

Problem saving files to PDF in Illustrator CS4 [Mac]

Hi all,
I'm having a problem with saving files as PDF's in illustrator CS4 - something I've happily done for years until about a week ago.
It seems to be something to do with the "Save As" command. When I select Save As and then select PDF, the PDF saves as a copy of the current file rather than it saving as a file itself. It also doesn't rename itself properly. Saving a file in the .ai format seems unaffected.
The multiple page function also seems to be affected - I can create multiple pages no problem, but upon saving the PDF reads as a single page PDF in both Acrobat and Preview. Reopening the same file in Illustrator reveals that the extra pages are there, but not showing in the PDF.
Any thoughts? I've trashed preferences and repaired permissions, but no joy....
Any help greatly appreciated

Have you entered specific artboards in "use artboards"?

Text problems with printing to PDF from AutoCAD 2011

When we print to PDF from AutoCAD, the text in the PDF looks wrong/bad. It takes on a jagged appearance and doesn't look anything like what the font is supposed to look like. Any suggestions?

Yup. It's not that it won't do it, it is just limited to 129". Thanks for the thought. When you print in Acrobat you can see the document size and the page size the program is assuming below the print window. The properties have been set, document adjusted, page size customized. It works exactly as it's designed (according to Adobe help, their knowledge base, etc) but only up to 129". Can do it at any size, decminal, etc. up to and including 129 inches. Prints beautiful, doesn't get chopped no issues at all. Just hits a wall at 129". Been doing it with blueprints for years. Just never needed it this big. In my case it's not a printer/plotter limitation. It's the Adobe PDF printer which is advertised to be able to cusomize page size to 15,000 inches.
Tried customizing in post script, no luck there either.
Again, I very much appreciate the suggestions....

Saving jpegs or pdfs from aperture completely blown out since upgrade

since the upgrade to mavericks the saving on Aperture doesnt perform.
Highlights are blown out beyond recognition. Saving books ( pdfs to jpegs) - complete nightmare, can barely see the photo
Saving a jpeg - doesnt work - again highlights blow out picture beyond recognition.
You can see a vague outline of some of the picture but its like the luminence or exposure has been taken up 50 points.
I have noticed if i redit the photo from scratch then all if fine - but I cant do that with my workload - its like reediting a whole project - Anyone else got this stupid problem? Is there a CURE?

Saving books ( pdfs to jpegs) - complete nightmare, can barely see the photo
How are you saving your books? By printing the book to PDF?
Saving a jpeg - doesnt work - again highlights blow out picture beyond recognition.
And how are you saving jpegs? File > Export? And use a JPEG preset?
What is your Aperture 3 version, and what is your MacOS X version?
I suspect you are having a problem with a wrong color profile when saving your books or jpegs.
What is the color profile used in the Export Preset you are saving your JPEGs with? set the export Preset to "Edit" to be able to inspect the details.

Saving file as cs4 from cs5 in Illustrator

I'm super-frustrated. I just upgraded to CS5 and now no one can read my files when I send them to them. Worse, I can't figure out how to save it as a legacy version of Illustrator (preferably CS4). I've done it before under the saveas dialog, but I don't see it there. I read in another forum to look under the Illustrator Options dialog, but I can't find THAT anywhere either. I'm on a Mac.
Please help!!!

I'm having an issue with legacy formats as well, but it's slightly different. Figured I would post it in here rather than starting a new thread for it.
I have 5 files, each with multiple layers, that were created in Illustrator CS5. The printer who I'm sending the files to is still working in Illustrator CS3, so I saved them to the CS3 legacy format, and sent him the files. He replied and said that he wasn't able to open them. So I tried to open them up in CS4 (which I still have installed on my machine alongside CS5), and I receive this error message on each of the files:
Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? If I save the files in CS4 format and open them in CS4, I am able to open the files, but for some reason they lose their layers. Both problems are very frustrating, as I don't want to have to save my files as CS4 format, re-open them in CS4, rebuild the layers, and then save them as CS3 out of CS4.

Problem saving Reader extended PDF created in Livecycle with Javascript functions built in

Afternoon
I have created an interactive PDF in Livecycle with built in Javascript functionality. I need users to be able to complete and save the PDF so have saved it as a Reader extended PDF. The problem I'm having is that when a user completes the form,saves it, and then opens it again the Javascript functionality is not showing despite showing the original selection that the user has made. The Javascript is simply a dropdown menu that will show a different table based on the selection so isn't anything major.
I've trawled forums and this is driving me mad so I'd appreciate some help.
I am using Adobe Pro XI.
Thanks in advance
Ben

At the moment I can't sorry. I've run the Javascript debugger in Adobe Pro and it seems there are some errors
Acrobat EScript Built-in Functions Version 11.0
Acrobat SOAP 11.0
ReferenceError: Table is not defined
1:XFA:form1[0]:TextFieldContainer[0]:#subform[3]:#area[1]:Button1[0]:initialize

Basically the form has been built in Livecycle Designer and have drop down menus that show or hide tables depending on the selection but when I Reader Enable the form and users make a selection and then save the form it is not showing the table when it is opened again.
I appreciate your help

Problems saving responses in PDF forms

Hi all -
I have created a few forms for my organization, but I've been getting a lot of feedback about problems with one of the forms. It's set up just like the other ones (that don't have problems) - 22 drop down menus, 6 text boxes.
Often, when one person saved the form on their computer, they email it to submit, but the responses come through blank on my end... even though the saved version on the original computer has the responses saved. For others, the form won't save responses at all. Many times, people submitting this form have had to physically print and scan the form in order to submit it... which defeats the purpose of having the electronic form.
Any ideas on what the problem might be? Is there anything I could do to fix these problems with saving? Is it a problem with the others' version of reader? I don't have any idea how to approach this issue.

Hi, sorry for my vague question, I'll clarify that -
I created the forms in Acrobat 9 Pro. Mostly, the other people using the form fill it out with Adobe Reader. They all have different versions, basically. Whenever I hear about these problems, I've always told the person to update their Adobe Reader to the latest version... that has never seemed to actually help.
