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.

    My photoshop CS5 will not open either from the desktop or from the program list. I can open Bridge but when I then try to view a photo in photoshop I get a message that says Bridge has stopped working and will have to close down.

    Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)?

  • How to automatically ensure printing pdf in safari does not crop content

    I realized today that printing  and saving as pdf in safari has been cropping my content. I dont know when this change occured or why, but at some point in time, content I've saved from safari by printing and saving as pdf has cropped the pages.
    Is there a way to make sure that printing in safari selects a page size that automatically does NOT crop the content. As it stands now it automatically selects US paper size and that crops all my bank statements. I can put in a custom size buts its really inconcenient to have to do that every time. And every time, it reverts back to US paper. This was never a problem for me in the past and I'm not sure whats changed.
    thanks

    Just to update, even if I select a custom size in print settings for the computer, safari automatically goes to US paper. Even if I select to scale content to fit, it still crops the content.
    I've also trashed Library/Preferences/com.apple.print.PrintingPrefs.plist

  • My photoshop cs5 will not recognize raw photos from my canon eos 70d

    my photoshop cs5 will not recognize raw photos from my canon eos 70d

    No.  DNG is a RAW format.  There are a few small manufacturer specific items that are left out when converted to RAW (for example, Nikon's Active D lighting) that aren't maintained, as well as some Meta data and focus points, etc.  Personally I never noticed the difference, but perhaps some do.  There is no impact to the image quality, you have just as much post production freedom with DNG.
    I did it for a couple years before upgrading to CS6.  It's an extra step, but you get used to it and it's not a huge deal.  I would put my card in my reader, and download to a temp file.  While that downloaded I would go to the fridge and grab a beer [Edit - you can substitute the beverage of your choice ].  Then I would run the RAW to DNG converter, and drink my beer.  It was usually done before my beer (if not I got another).  I saved the CR2 files as a backup at first, but once I got comfortable trusting DNG I stopped doing that.
    Another option is to get Lightroom and use that for your developing.  You can then send over a TIFF file with the edits.  But in this situation you couldn't send the image over as a smart object (I think, I assume this would use ACR?).

  • Adobe Photoshop CS5 is not working with Lion.

    Adobe Photoshop CS5 is not working with Lion. It is totally non responsive to a point where i cannot work. all other CS5 programs seem to be running well so far. any advice? if no, then how do i revert back to Snow leopard?

    I had real problems with all Adobe apps - it said I needed to install a version of Jave Runtime, but kept saying that I wasn't connected to the internet to complete the action. This was not the case - I was connected to the internet.
    I followed this link : http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421  to install a version of Java and all Adobe apps fire up now. Haven't done much testing within the apps, but at least I'm further ahead than I was.
    So thanks to the message boards for helping me out.

  • Photoshop CS5 will not start after Outlook

    If I start Outlook (Office 2007) as the first application after loading OS (Win 7 Ult, 64 bit), Photoshop CS5 will not open (message: "needs to close down). I then have to log off and in again and start Photoshop before Outlook to get it to work. I seem to remember having this kind of problem some years ago - but do not remember whats caused this problem. Is there anybody out there having the same kind of trouble? Or even better - the solution?

    Hmm... I have CS5 Master Collection, and MS Office 2007, and I have never had any problems opening ANY program, in ANY order

  • Photoshop CS5 Extended NOT in CS5 Production Premium?

    Hi!
    A few days ago I purchased CS5 Production Premium. I already had Photoshop CS5 installed and registered on my PC. However, after installing Production Premium I still have Photoshop CS5, but not Extended. I checked again on the What's Is Production Premium page, and sure enough Photoshop Extended is listed right below "What's Inside" near the bottom of the page. I did not uninstall Photoshop prior to installation as I don't recall being told to anywhere.
    Just for kicks I started the install process again and stopped to look at the programs being installed. Photoshop CS5 (64bit) is listed, not CS5 Extended. If I click on the Photoshop.exe icon that is in the either of the Adobe folders (rather than using the Start menu, just to be sure), one in the Program Files (x86) for the 32bit apps, and the other in the Program FIles for the 64bit apps, I still don't have Extended for either version.
    I also noticed the modified dates of those Photoshop folders are from close to my original Photoshop CS5 installation date. Nothing was changed when I installed the Production Premium package.
    Also, I was emailed four serial numbers (two are numeric only, the other two much longer and contain letters and numbers). However, during the install only one was ever entered. Besides Photoshop I've only tried Premier Pro, After Effects, and Illustrator and they all seem fine.
    What should I do to get Extended working?

    That did the trick! Thanks for the quick response.
    Weird thing is that the Deacitvate option was greyed out on the 64bit version. I looked in the 32bit version and it was available there. I permanently deactivated it, exited Photoshop (32bit) to check the 64bit version again. This time a CS5 Production Premium window appeared with the option to install Photoshop CS5 Extended. I clicked install and Photoshop opened up almost immediately; all Extended options now available.

  • Photoshop CS5 does not print amount of images accurately!

    Photoshop CS5 does not print amount of images accurately!
    what ever you ask for above 1 copy of an image you do not get it..
    you ask for 5 you get 1 you ask for 8 you get 1.. sometimes you get the leftover amount from the previous image printed on the new image..
    adobe support has no idea about this problem..I'm assuming most people print one image and they don't recognize the problem since CS5 is just on the market... try print multiple copies and see what happens?

    The solution is purported to be to get a driver update.
    Since the problem seems to be a "delay" or "staging" of the values being sent to the driver through some intermediate location, a workaround has been proposed that may be helpful.  This may depend on the printer driver:
    1.  Set the copy count you want.
    2.  Hit the Print Settings... button.
    3.  Go into the Printer Driver setup screens and verify the copy count.
    4.  Then do the print.

  • Photoshop CS5 will not launch

    Photoshop CS5 will not launch either from the desktop or program list. The only way to launch is to log out and restart the computer. At the end of each session I reset the preferences in the Workspace.  I am running Win 7 ultimate with 4GB of ram. System is 64 bit .  Display is ATI Radeon HD  5700 series. Adapter type is AMD Radeon Graphics Processor (0x68B8). The computer has an Intel(R) series/3400 Chipset Family.
    When I installed from the disk I received the message  Exit Code 6, 0 fatal errors, 21 errors, 1 warning. I have reinstalled several times and still get the same message. Tried disabling start up items while installing but same message.

    One thing that sort of jumps out at me, regarding running the program, is that 4GB of RAM. With a 64-bit OS, 4GB is just about the minimum to run the OS, with little to nothing left over for a program, like Photoshop. I would bump that up, and to 12 - 16GB, if possible.
    For the installation, I think that Mylenimum has posted some very useful links.
    Good luck,

  • Cannot Launch Photoshop CS5 - "Could not Open a Scratch File..."

    Hi, so photoshop CS5 is not launching.
    Just got it in the mail, installed it, and now I'm getting this message:
    "Could not open a scratch file because the file is locked or you do not have the necessary privileges.
    Use the get info command in finder to unlock the file."
    I've tried multiple things to try to resolve the issue including:
    1) reinstalled 3 times
    2) pulled all plists regarding adobe found at ~/library/preferences/
    3) tried booting to safe mode, no difference
    4) checked software updates for anything adobe, everything installed now.
    5) note, this is also happening in photoshop cs2 now
    6) tried changing permissions to enclosed items to the photoshop CS5 folder read/write access.
    I've got a 21.5 iMac with Mac OS X 10.6.4 installed.
    What other suggestions does anyone else have??
    I have called adobe, talked to 3 different people, and talked to Applecare, each support rep
    has told me to contact the other. I do not know what to do at this point.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • A file which was created and saved using Adobe Photoshop CS6 is not opening anymore HELP

    Hi, please help with my issue which is as follows:
    A file which was created and saved using Adobe Photoshop CS6 is not opening anymore and sends a message saying that the file is not compatible.
    What should I do, I have invested so much in that file and I dont think i will be able to do it all over again.

    That's why people do incremental saves and use backups... You could try to open the file in an image viewer like IrfanView and see which parts are salvagable, but that's as good as it gets most likely...
