Saving a pdf in photoshop

When trying to save as a pdf, the dialogue box doesnt show up that gives me pdf options such as save as press quality. Does anybody know how to reset or make it show up because I would really like save them as pdf set to press quality? Thanks in avance.

Sorry, that doesn't work. Tried it already. Also today I completely uninstalled the suite, cleaned up the registry, removed any thing related to it then reinstalled. Still cant choose Press Quality. Funny thing is I could choose it a couple of months ago and now all of the sudden it's gone. That dialogue box doesn't even open up any more. Could it be something with Acrobat?, who knows. Still searching, I don't give up easily.

Incorrectly coloured text when saving to .PDF using Photoshop CS4

I am using Photoshop CS4 on Windows 7, and have designed my own business card.
When saving to .PDF to send to printers I am finding that a small section of text is saving with a white section to it, for example out of the 3 lines of text on the card the bottom left hand corner of the & sign I have in the design is coming out white, the rest of the text is a golden colour.
I have tried searching on this forum and on google but can't seem to find anyone with my actual problem so unsure where to go.
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks

Well, you could change the native text color instead of using layer styles, could you not?

Or make the Type and Hyphen layers into a single Smart Object and clip a yellow layer to it.

Text is getting cut off when saving a PDF from Photoshop CS 6

I've begun to run into an issue quite frequently that I just cannot find a work around for. The first image shows what it looks like in Photoshop:
Then this is what it looks like in Adobe Acrobat after it's saved from PS:
You can see a whole swath of text is just missing. I've tried everything I can think of to get it to save correctly. This is a high resolution image, exported at press quality.
Please help.

I've played around with the PDF settings, and nothing seems to work. Here's what I'm using now:
As for the font properties, this is what Acrobat shows after I open the file in there:

Choosing format options for saving a PDF in Photoshop

We are photographing newspaper pages, fixing them up in photoshop to be read using Adobe Reader. When I "save as" pdf it offers a whole host of little format options. I need a document size of about 1 Meg in order to get a whole year's worth of paper on one CD. Which options should I use?

Saving as PDF from Photoshop Elemenst text is missing

I am saving a PSd as a PDF and the text is missing in the reader, but not in the original PSD, can anyone help?

Are you using adobe reader to view the pdf or the windows 8 built in pdf reader?
Is the text still there if you open the saved pdf back into the pse 10 editor using File>Open?

When saving a pdf in photoshop it corrupts the text.

Anybody else getting this issue?

Yes, I'm seeing this also. I havn't found a solution yet.
One paragraph in a text-box renders jagged and almost see-through but the rest of the text in the same box, with the same formatting looks ok. Go figure!
I'll keep looking for a solution...

Problem with creating PDF in Photoshop, or Acrobat Output Preview

I saved a PDF in Photoshop and Acrobat's output preview the text was black in 4 colors and Rip did not have this problem. Why?

You have gone a while without a reply here, so I'll bump your post at least, but it is not clear from your question exactly what your problem is.
'Black in four colors' I don't understand this statement. Black is black and does not have colours.
'Rip' I don't know what you mean by Rip.
One tghing that comes to mind is that if you have exported a large layered document to PDF and that document had vectored objects like Type layers, whenn you view the PDF file you might initially see those vectored objects in black while the system is catching up and rendering the type layers etc. In that case, just waiting will see it corrected, but a 3550 x 8800 pixel banner file I delivered to a printer recently, took ages to render on the printer's slow system.
If you expand on your problem, I amn sure someone will try and help.

Saving as PDF, Photoshop CS5 (Acrobat not cropping)

Just upgraded to CS5 from CS3. In the earlier version, I always saved files as PDFs from the Print box. Then I'd open the PDF in Acrobat and check "Remove White Margins" in order to crop to my Photoshop file size. When I try this same method in CS5, Acrobat will not crop my image to match my Photoshop file size.
I believe it's an issue with Photoshop CS5 because I tried my same old method using Photoshop CS3 and the new Acrobat and it works like it used to. Is there another way to save as a PDF from CS5? Any ideas?
Thanks.

Printing to PDF from the print box is an OS process - it takes the printer data that Photoshop sends and creates PDF from it.
Photoshop CS5 does use the newer Cocoa printing APIs, which could cause changes in the output (due to differences in Apple's code).
For saving PDF, I really suggest you just save the file as PDF from Photoshop and skip the print dialog.

Have your Illustrator and Photoshop images stopped saving as PDF? Help!

I have CS5. For the past 2 weeks, when I save an Illustrator or Photoshop design as a PDF, it does not create a pdf of the image. It creates a PDF with this message:
"This is an Adobe® Illustrator® File that was saved without PDF Content. To Place or open this in other applications, it should be re-saved from Adobe Illustrator with the "Create PDF Compatible File" option turned on. This option is in the Illustrator Native Format Options dialog box, which appears when saving an Adobe Illustrator le using the Save As command."
I CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO THIS! HELP! The message does not describe any of my CS5 message boxes.
Thanks for any solutions.

1- View of FINDER. Shows some .ai documents have the orange look and others do not.
2- SAVE AS (about to save Illustrator image)

When saving a file in photoshop cc , using "save as" the pdf has clipping (color is not showing) in parts of the document.

When we save a file to a pdf from photoshop cc the pdf will show some clipping of color , as if the color disappeared on the pdf. what steps are needed so this doesn't occur?

Thank you for responding. Below is some info.
Please see the clipping on the "d" in Pastel Bond and White Bond and the rounded part of the "R" in 2 &3 Part NCR. We have had this happen on occasion with other files as well. Thanks for the help.

How do I save a PDF in Photoshop/inDesign so that the text can be edited in Acrobat?

I notice that some PDF's I receive I am able to edit the text that is already in the document while using Acrobat Pro. However when I save my own PDF files I cannot seem to edit the text. Is there a specific way I should be saving my PDF? Either on Photoshop or inDesign?

Photoshop - no chance.
InDesign - will usually just work.
Text editing in Acrobat is, however, a desperate last resort. Really, never, never consider it for files where the original is still available, even at some effort. Text editing is for where the original is lost and all the backups eaten by termites.

Problem with opening some of PDFs in Photoshop CS6.

Hi, I have a problem with opening some of PDFs in Photoshop CS6. It is said: it isn't possible to carry out an order since the module of the file format cannot analyse this file

Don’t know if Reader has this, too, but in Acrobat one can check under Document Properties.
I can convert and place the file in Photoshop CS6.
I would recommend trying the usual trouble-shooting routines and if nothing helps un-installing, running the Cleaner and re-installing Photoshop. (After making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved to s secure location.)

Save as .pdf in Photoshop CS5 - serious font issues.

Hello.
It may not be directly about Acrobat, but since it's a PDF issue maybe someone here will be able to help.
I'm having serious issues with fonts while saving as .pdf from Ps.
No matter what pdf settins I use, the fonts result messed up one way or the other (see attachment). It only happens when saving as .pdf from Ps, while all works fine when saving from Illustrator, Word, etc...
I have no idea what could be the reason. Please help.
Thanks in advance.
Attachment:
top: screen capture of .psd in Ps (with font/paragraph settings)
bottom: screen capture of saved .pdf when viewed in Acrobat
Microsoft Windows 7 x32/x64 (same issue on two machines)
Adobe Photoshop 12.0.3 x32/x64 respectively
Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.0.0 x64
Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.4.1 x32

Solved.
After going through all the preferences - it was due to "2D graphics acceleration" being on for some reason.
So - you put "2D graphics acceleration" in Acrobat (9 an/or 10) an the above is what you get... hmmm.....
Thanks for assistance.

Saving as PDF: fonts look crappy?

I have a small test .psd image with just one piece of text. When I save this as .pdf from Photoshop CS4 (using Save As and choose Photoshop PDF format) and open the .pdf with Acrobat 9, the font looks pretty messed up. Here's an example of what I mean:
http://i26.tinypic.com/5flp2p.jpg
I have attached the example .psd (and saved .pdf) here.
Now the strange thing is: it doesn't happen *always*, sometimes the PDF looks all right. I can't seem to detect what it depends on. I have plenty of available RAM and harddisk space, that's for sure. It seems to occur especially when I already have another PDF open in Acrobat as well. For example, if I copy the test.pdf from above zip to test2.pdf, then open one in Acrobat, then the other, the first may look all right (not always) and the 2nd usually looks messed up.
What's going on? I'm not sure if this is a problem with Acrobat rather than PS, but it happens ONLY with PDFs I save from PS. Never with PDFs from any other source.
Thanks in advance if someone can clear this up!

Font embedding rules, for sure. If a font is considered "locked" and thus un-embeddable, any program is required to convert it to contours as per the PDF language ruels. By keeping a document open under the same name you may just trigger that weird behavior and PS is just not good at it. On the other hand, you could just use a wrong PDF preset and it flattens things to a low quality. As a third possibility, PS could jsut embed the font name reference and then for some inconceivable reason it doesn't get associated in Acrobat. Hard to tell. I'm just not in the mood to do any deeper investigation after a hot, long day full of work, so maybe someone else has a better answer for you...

Once I've saved a PDF document in Adobe Reader is there a way to add additional documents later?

Once I've saved a PDF document in Adobe Reader is there a way to add additional documents later?
If not is there a way to combine lets say 100 documents into another PDF file at once (Batch export) in PDF Pack software or do I have to add each document one by one drop and drag style?
Thanks

What has this got to do with Photoshop?
In Acrobat Pro one can combine pdfs (Combine Files into PDF) and Photoshop (not in CS5, but again in CS6) offers File > Auromate > PDF Presentation to combine Photoshop files in one pdf.
