Saving PDF files as Post Script files using Adobe Professional

I have a 2 Page  PDf document that mainly has Text on each page. Both the Pages have a 2D Data Matrix Barcode also.
I opened the PDF file in Adobe Professional and saved the file as Post Script file.
Post Script file gets saved successfully. When I open the Post script file - It has almost 40,000 line for a 2 page post scipt file.
It has lot of Hex data that looks so huge in the file. ( I thought only Images get converted to Hex format).
Is there a setting or something I am missing that I have this huge Post script file for a 2 page text file PDF

Your barcode may be a high resolution graphic. A lot of junk (hex) is what you would see in such a case with PS. How it looks to you may depend on what application you are using to view the PS file. If you open it in a code or text editor you might get a better idea of what is there. I don't look at PS files much and agree with graffiti's question of why do you want to?

  • Converting Back to Original PDF Using Post Script File

    Is there any way to convert back to an original PDF using a post srcipt file that was created from that original PDF?  Allow me to fully explain my situation:
    I converted multiple pdf's that I created into a post script file.  I then utilized Adobe Distiller to convert them into a pdf that could be used for better printing and better usability by the end user.  Unfortunately, when Distiller did this conversion, it replaced my original pdf with the new one.  By the time I realized what was happening, all files had been replaced.
    I still have the post script file that was created from the original PDF file; is there any way possible using this post script file that it can be somehow converted back to the original PDF file?  There are some edits that I need to do on the original PDF.  The pdf that Distiller creates doesn't allow for anymore edits.  My goal is to be able to make my edits without having to re-create 37 pages of documents. 
    The software versions I'm using are as follows: Adobe Acrobat X Version 10.1.4, Adobe Distiller Version 10.1.438.
    If anyone has any ideas, please let me know!

  • How to Print Post Script Files

    Hi All,
    I am trying to make a utility software in foxpro that could print post script file on:-
    1) Post script printer
    2) Non Post Script printer
    Operating System Windows 95 & above
    Help is requested from all the community members

    PostScript printer - send it to the printer port e.g. LPT1: with a simple copy.
    Non-PostScript printer - you'll need to buy a PostScript RIP, or perhaps use Acrobat Distiller to convert the PostScript to PDF, then print the PDF with Acrobat's API - see the Acrobat SDK. (This is not possible with the free Reader).

  • Unable to create post script file in framemaker.

              I installed TCS 4.0 licensed suite. Due to some reason I need to delete Adobe PDF from Devices and Printers. Since then I am unable to create post script file using framemaker. I have tried uninstalling and installing TCS 4.0 again, but all in vain. What should I do now?

    If you delete critical parts of Acrobat there will be problems. Try doing a REPAIR of Acrobat Pro (from the Programs Control Panel), maybe it can undo the damage.

    @Jack – you were using a joboptions file by Distiller to convert a PostScript file to a PDF/X-1a.
    What you get is no error message, just a report, that everything went ok. And in this case I cannot see any advantage using PDF Export for printing to PostScript/distilling to PDF. Ok, maybe one, CS5 and above would export in a background process.
    To prevent InDesign flattening transparency, you could use PDF/X-4 as your export setting. You cannot use writing to PostScript for that task.
    Check including tags for tagged export to prevent misalignment of text because of a strange bug with PDF Export when you are using 9pt text on 12pt leading or text with a ratio of 9/12 for point size and leading in multicolumn text frames.

  • I cannot open pdf files from one supplier when using Adobe Reader but I can using another Viewer

    I cannot open pdf files from one supplier when using Adobe Reader but I can open it if using Google PDF viewer or another viewer. The Adobe reader gives the error "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired" when I try to open the file. The version of Adobe Reader is 10.1.7, however I have tried other versions and they all fail the same way.  I have tested on a number of different PC's in different networks and all fail using Adobe Reader but work using alternate viewer. Also the PC's will open a PDF from any other source.

    Newer Reader versions are more strict than older versions (and other PDF viewers).  If certain minimum requirements are not met, Reader will tell you that the PDF is damaged.  This can happen when a document was created with software that does not adhere to PDF standards, or when the file was damaged during a download or email transmission.
    You should contact the creator of these PDFs.

    I exported each page of the brochure individually and that worked.  Unfortunately, some of the items appeared to be corrupt when opened in Word. 
    If you would like to have a look I could send the pdf.

  • "file failed to be converted using Adobe ExportPDF online"

    I have been getting errors for about a week when trying to convert a PDF to a word document. In Acrobat I get the error "File failed to be converted using Adobe ExportPDF Online" and when online using ExportPDF I get a conversion failure.
    Please help.

    Hi PeterChick,
    Does it occur with all files or a specific file?
    Are you trying to convert from within Reader or from Browser?
    If from Reader then make sure you are signed in within Reader, also try updating Reader to the latest v11.0.09 and check.
    If from Browser then have you checked with a different browser if possible?
    Regards,
