Saving a .pdf as a landscape view

I have a xerox documate 632 scanner that scans and saves the document into a .pdf format. I use these files for presentations and so i need to know how to save the file as a landscape view so it can be opened at read that way.

Can't be done with Reader.
I would check the settings in whatever application you are using to scan.

Saving a pdf to view in landscape

I'm using Reader XI & want to be able to view an Office Excel 2007 spreadsheet - saved as a PDF - in Landscape view. Is there a way to set this up before saving the spreadsheet as a PDF? The 'Rotate' option does exactly what it says, turning a Portrait document into Landscape & rotating the text. I want to be able to rotate the page, but leave the content in its existing horizontal form.

Not possible with Adobe Reader. Adobe Reader doesn't create PDF files.

Hi Bob, I just tried your suggestion, but the interactive PDF is in spreads by default, no way to change the setting. When I choose to view by single page in Acrobat, it displays a single spread.
When I choose to view by spreads, it displays 4 pages, two spreads. That's the topic of this whole discussion, I believe. I do own CS 6 at home, however my employer supplied me with CS 5.5. And I have very little, if any, influence on purchasing.
So, I have no good way to make an interactive PDF (with differing recto/verso headers and footers), that is accessible and shows the correct header/footer. It's either single pages (with one header/footer), or recto/verso headers/footers but PDF only as a spread, as well as I can tell.
Unless you know something else I can do...
Best, Marilyn

How do you change the default save as directory when saving a PDF file to your hard drive?

This is the on-line help instructions on this site:
Downloading a PDF file to your hard drive
You can download a PDF file to the hard drive from a web page's link. Downloading PDF files doesn't require the ActiveX plug-in file to be installed. (If you want to open and view the PDF file after downloading it, you must have Acrobat, Adobe Reader, or Acrobat Reader installed.)
To download a PDF file from a link:
1. Right-click the link to a PDF file, and then choose Save Target As from the pop-up menu.
2. In the Save As dialog box, select a location on your hard drive, and then click Save.
My issue: I want to save several pdf files (from the Adobe Reader in my browser) one at a time and each time it defaults the save as directory to the desktop and I have to go looking for the directory I last saved a pdf file in. I got lots of directories and I wish I could change the default setting for the save as directory. Just a minor thing but irritating as other programs usually will allow you to switch the default save as directory to one of your choosing.

There is not a way to set the default location from all the forums i searched in the last couple days.

I saved a PDF doc in adobe and then added text to the form. But every time I try an email it it only

I saved a PDF doc in adobe and then added text to the form. But every time I try an email it it only sends the original form without text. Once I've changed a doc in Adobe, how can I save it so that I'm able to use it with added text and notes? Also, I'm using a new iPad.

If you are using those apps or websites, they are likely viewing the PDF using iOS' built in PDF previewing, which will not show annotations and markup to the PDF. We have informed Apple of this issue, but do not have any insight into whether or when they will fix it.
Regarding the qustion about importing pictures, Adobe Reader does not provide any capabilities to import pictures into a PDF. To do this, you'll need to use Acrobat, available on your desktop computer.

When saving a PDF from a FrameMaker book, is it possible to set document filenames as bookmarks in the PDF?

When saving a PDF from a FrameMaker book, is it possible to set document filenames as bookmarks in the PDF? Currently when I have a Framemaker book that I want to save as a PDF, I choose Save Book As and then choose PDF for the file format. A dialog box comes up in which I can choose the Bookmarks tab and choose which tagged content I want to be made into bookmarks in the PDF file. What if I would rather have the filename of a document rather than the chapter title be a bookmark in the PDF? Is that possible? Where would I choose that option? Thanks!

There are two ways that you could do this. You can either use postscript text frames and enter the correct pdfmark entries to show the file name with the corresponding actions (i.e. where to go in the PDF) or you can use hidden text in FM and the "Filename (Short) " variable in a unique paratag to be picked up by FM's bookmark creation.
To go the pdfmark route, see http://www.pdflib.com/fileadmin/pdflib/pdf/pdfmark_primer.pdf for details and also consult the Adobe Pdfmark Reference manual (http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdfmark_reference.pdf).
The hidden text route would use FM's Color Views to specify a colour as Invisible. This will make the content visually disappear from the screen (and any output), but FM will still be able to read the contents of any text that is coloured with the Invisible colour(s).
1. Pick or create a colour that you want to be invisible. [Magenta is usually a good bet and stands out visually].
2. Set that colour to be invisible in View 1 and visible in View 6. [you can use the shortcut <esc> v 1 and <esc> v 6 to toggle between the views.]
3. Create a paratag to use for the filename and set the font colour to use the invisible colour.
3. In the title of each chapter file, drop an anchored frame that is set to be outside of the text frame [so it won't interfere with any other content].
4. In that AFrame, insert a text frame and use the invisible paratag defined in step 3.
5. Insert the Filename (Short) variable in that text frame.
6. Repeat steps for all files to be included in the bookmarks.
When creating the PDF bookmarks, select only the paratag used for the invisible colour.
Don't forget to toggle the View to be invisible (i.e. <esc> v 1 - this also works at the book level for all files in the book).

Saving a pdf when dynamically build by a servlet

Hi,
How is it possible to initialize the "File name" field when saving a pdf content ?
I'm generating reports in a pdf format with a servlet. This way, the servlet is called by a Url and the result is displayed directly in the browser.
Now, if I click on the save button, the opened window suggest the url (http://....) as file name.
Is it possible to send a default file name that is not trhe url ?

I was interested in your question, since we have a similar application where I work, and every PDF always defaults to the name of the servlet when attempting to save it.
I don't believe it would be possible to change that. The PDF viewer (Acrobat in my case) doesn't know or care whether the content is dynamically generated or a static .pdf file, it just knows that the browser went to a certain site and retrieved a file for it to open. So it appears to me that the decision of what default name to give the file is made at the browser/viewer level rather than by the servlet. I could be wrong, of course--I'd be glad to see any other suggestions.

Unable to properly highlight grids created by Illustrator CC saved as .pdf's

Hello,
The issue I'm about to explain is a little abstract, and I'll explain it the best I can. Thanks in advance for your patience.
Here's my Dropbox link to the files: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/73esyo467oisq9z/ToXw207v8X
In Illustrator CC I have drawn a grid by intersecting lines which has various font characters and some with square blocks inside the grid spaces. When I save this as a .pdf, users in Adobe Reader or Acrobat Pro are unable to select the rows properly, the selection is seemingly random and unpredictable.
In the link above you'll see two screenshots:
correct_highlighting.png
This is a screenshot of the desired highlighting
This grid (chart) was made in a different program and exported as a .pdf
incorrect_highlighting.png
This is a screenshot of undesireable highlighting
This grid (chart) was made in Illustrator CC and saved as a .pdf
Acrobat 6 (PDF 1.5) with the Illustrator Default preset with no Standards preset
Other files included:
test chart creation.aiThe original test drawing used above
test chart creation.pdfA test .pdf created with the specifications above
I think the issue has something to do with the grid is created with a series of lines, so perhaps it's nothing like a spreadsheet where the highlighting flow is a set path and predictable. My thought is, how do I go about making the highlighting flow predictable?
Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your reply.
The grid (chart) that highlights correctly is created from another program which is no longer viable, and as I need full control over the drawing, creating fields in Acrobat is not an option.
This grid (chart) created in Illustrator CC will be used in InDesign where ultimately a .pdf is created and viewed by clients in print and on screen (mac, pc, unix, and mobile devices). It's very helpful for users to highlight and mark their place on the chart as they read it to keep their place. Sometimes clients use a 3rd party .pdf reader to accomplish this. Long story short, the program we were creating these charts with is no longer viable, and are now testing Illustrator to create charts which is perfect except for the highlighting flow issue.

Hi Sara!
Yes this sounds interesting. Can I update to that from the PDF Export I have just renewed? How much would that cost?
Thanks for your quick answer.

Acrobat Reader 11.0 and way to reduce size of scanned docs saved as 'pdf

Dear correspondents,
I despair this message to be read and generate an answer. If it is, please give me an address to which I could send my request.
The issue is of decreasing the size in Mb of scanned files, saved as .pdf. I am in MaOS environment and use Adobe Reader 11.0.
I cannot find the command "Combine Files". From it and via "View" is is possible to open "Toolbar" and operate the size reduction.
I have seen this work done in Windows Environment successfully reducin a scanned file from 10 Mb to 1.1 Mb with a still acceptable quality.
I need your adivices,please,

The product you have seen in Windows is probably Acrobat Pro. The free Adobe Reader doesn't do any of that stuff, but does look a bit like Acrobat Pro.

Swf saved as pdf not displaying when opened

Hi All,
I am in the process of creating a media kit for my company. The plan is to be able to send out a link to the pdf file saved in our site files so that potential clients can click and view or download the pdf. I have saved the pdf in my site files however; when you go to the link (http://www.hobnobtv.com/pdf/hobnobtv-media-kit.pdf) it only opens a white blank pdf file.
Here are the steps i've taken to create the file:
I have created the 10page booklet using InDesign CS4 and added the page turn page transition on all the pages.
I exported the file as swf and then opened the swf in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.
When opening the swf in Acrobat the activation setting I choose are:
Enable when: The page containing the content is opened
Disable when: The page containing the content is closed
Save the pdf file
Uploaded to the site
What could be causing the pdf to appear white and blank? Is there a better way to accomplish the goal?
I look forward to hearing others thoughts!
Rebecca

Thank you for the response!
Actually, I finally realized (and i'm a little embarassed to admit) that when I click on the link for the pdf, my default program to open the file was set to Preview rather than adobe acrobat or reader. So now that I have it set to Acrobat I see it ok.
I have tested the swf file by itself and it does work. The file uses the Page Turn transition affect, so the user needs to click the bottom right corner of each page to turn (or they can click and drag the page open). I did notice when the pdf was opend the little note I included in the bottom right of the first page does not show (it reads "click here to turn page"- as a prompt for the user). I may have to move that up a little bit so it shows. Also, if you hover over the bottom right corner of the right page, you should start to see the page corner curl, this is hard to see at this point (you can see it great if you click the zoom in option once) Maybe i'll have to reduce the size of the swf when making it a pdf to see if that works so the user doesn't have to adjust the page to see the affect.
I'll see how that works.

The PDF file and slideshow view corrupted using iPhoto. Macbook air only get corrupted slideshow and Mac Mini both slideshow and PDF file is corrupted.

The PDF file and slideshow view corrupted using iPhoto. Macbook air only get corrupted slideshow and Mac Mini both slideshow and PDF file is corrupted.

Saving as a PDF file for some users have been a problem. If you boot into Safe Mode and run iPhoto you can create undamaged PDF files. We don't know why the problem but this is a workaround.
This problem prevents many from ordering books, calendars and cards since iPhoto creates PDF file of them for uploading and printing. Booting into Safe Mode lets them successfully order those items.

Editing documents saved as PDF

Why can't I edit documents saved as PDF? Last week I was able to save them and then edit them. Today I can only view them.

Hey johnfromnew malden,
First off, do you have all of your files backed up?
Have you ever replaced the hard drive?
Try starting up in Safe Mode by holding the Shift key while booting. Continue holding the Shift key until you see the login window. It may take 5 or more minutes to start up as Safe Mode will try to repair your hard drive if there are issues.
