Scanning to PDF problem on Acrobat Prof 8

Hi
I have a problem when I try to scan to PDF at the point when I try to set a location on the network drive or if the location is already set, it says:
'An error occured while reconnecting....'
Microsoft Windows Network:The local device name is already in use
The connection has not been restored.
You can press OK a few times to these messages and eventually it scans and I have no problems when I access those folders through Windows Explorer.
Any ideas?
Windows 2000, Acrobat 8 Prof.

I hope this isn't a dumb question, but is it coming from the scanner? We have to watch two things when scanning on our Canon 5020s.
#1 Make sure the sidebars are as tight as possible, including making sure the stack of paper is very clean and straight and tight.
#2 There is a setting in our scanner called Margin. It corrects for things like manufacture defect. If we leave that setting alone, we get a small black edge. We have it set to -2 to decrease the scanning area. This fixes that problem.

    You're asking a lot of ancient Acrobat to work with an Office that never existed when it was made. "Just updated my office suite" is a massive change, and Window 8 didn't exist at that time either...

  • Problem - Konvertieren Office Dok in pdf mit Adobe Acrobat Prof 8 - WTS

    Hallo zusammen,
    ich habe das Problem, dass beim Konvertieren von Office(2007) Dokumenten in pdf Dokumente mit dem Adobe Acrobat Prof 8 div. Links nicht erhalten bleiben / nicht mehr funktionieren.
    www.adobe.com funktioniert z.B. nach der Konvertierung weiterhin.
    ADOBE (mit hinterlegtem Link zu www.adobe.com) funktioniert nicht.
    Jetzt liegt der Verdacht nahe, dass Adobe Acrobat nur ein Bild des Dokuments erstellt und wenn er das www. oder http:\\ erkennt es mit konvertiert...
    Ab, mit der Office Version 2010 erstellten Dokumenten, funktioniert es allerdings.
    Das gleiche Problem habe ich auch mit alternativen Konvertern.
    Gibt es hierzu eine Lösung, die nicht Office 2010 vorraussetzt und auch nicht den Illustrator (mit dem gehts es glaube ich) vorraussetzt?
    Das Problem besteht alleridngs nur unter WTS (Windows Terminal Server). Auf FAT Clients ist das konvertieren möglich
    Danke schonmal im Vorraus

    müsste ich mit einer Adobe Acrobat (nur Pro?)-Version ein solches PDF erzeugen können...?
    Ja, klar, aber wenn man mit Software von vor 7 Jahren rumwerkelt, wird man da wohl mit Problemen rechenn müssen. Die gute Nachricht ist, dass A1-b und X1-a nach meinem Verständnis im Prinzip das gleiche sind. Vor 2 oder 3 Jahren wurden diese Standards nur neu definiert und ISO zertifiziert, deswegen haben sich die Nummern geändert. Könnte höchstens sein, dass da nun auch noch irgendwelche Metadaten anders sind. Vielelicht weiß radzmar da bescheid...

    Hi,
    I'm having a similar problem and it's disappointing that no one has responded to the original posing from April 2013.
    I was extracting a range of pages from Framemaker 7 to PDF using the Acrobat 6 Distiller. The PS file failed to convert to PDF and the log file contained these errors.  What is the meaning of the "Error: undefined" statement?  How can I figure out where the error is occurring?
    Yours,

  • Acrobat XI Pro, Surface Pro 128,  Scan to PDF not working

    I just installed the trial version of Acrobat XI onto my Surface Pro and everything works except the Scan to PDF, when I hit any of the presets I get an error message that says: Box Title: Twain Data Source  Text In box: " Program was unable to load necessary component and its going to terminate. Please re-install your software." with an "OK" button.
    When I hit "OK" button get error box title: "Adobe Acrobat",  Text in Box: "An unrecoverable error has occurred. Operation stopped.", with an "OK" button
    Hit "Ok" Button and goes back to adobe startup screen.
    This happens with Auto detect Color Mode, Black & White Document, Grayscale Document, Color Document, Color Image.
    When I hit custom Scan, I get:
    Box Title: Twain Data Source  Text In box: " Program was unable to load necessary component and its going to terminate. Please re-install your software." with an "OK" button.
    When I hit "OK" button get error box title: "Adobe Acrobat",  Text in Box: "An unrecoverable error has occurred. Operation stopped.", with an "OK" button
    When I hit "OK" i get a Custom Scan Box with the scanner,
    when I hit Scan: I get  Box Title: Twain Data Source  Text In box: " Program was unable to load necessary component and its going to terminate. Please re-install your software." with an "OK" button.
    Then the Native Scanner interface pops up and it scans the document and brings it up in Acrobat XI.
    Anyone have any ideas on how to fix, I would like to buy the license, but will not until I make sure it will work properly. The Scanner works fine with other applications. I have two different scanners installed and it does this with both.

    I have the same problem only with Acrobat 9.5.5 (Windows 8 Pro 64 bit)
    This error message appeared after I had a re-install. Twain is installed with "Neat" scanner and software. (Neat works.)
    Have you been able to repair this problem?

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro X Crashes when Trying to Scan to PDF - Epson Perfection v30 on Windows 7

    I am running Windows 7 with Acrobat Pro 10.0.0
    I have a Epson Perfection v30 Scanner installed. I open Acrobat, and when I select Scan to PDF, pick the v30 Scanner, and start the scan, it does actually start and complete the scanning process. However, at the moment where it displays the results of the scan, Acrobat crashes with the following Signature:

    We have 8 machines with Acrobat and this Printer, and I am able to repeat this with each system.
    Does anybody have any ideas? Is anybody using the Epson Perfection v30 scanner?

    Any ideas?   there was an update on adobe dated 2/25/13.   Perhaps if I uninstall it?   I need advice on how to uninstall. When I view updates and click on it, and then click uninstall, it goes back to the Program Screen, in Control, for all programs. Then do I click on Acrobat and Uninstall?  I am nervous about doing this. Thanks

  • Problems with editing/opening PDF's in Acrobat X

    We have 2 situations going on with Acrobat X:
    1.  We are scanning drawings on a Xerox Wide Format scanner to PDF's.  When I open them in Acrobat 8 Pro I can rotate and edit them.  When my boss opens them in Acrobat X the same file opens as a PDF/A and he can't do anything with them.  Any thoughts on how we can change this?
    2.  When my boss get's PDF attachements in his email he is not able to open them, he has to email them to me so I can open them in Acrobat 8 Pro.
    We were considering upgrading the whole office to the latest version of Acrobat but until we can get these 2 basic items solved it won't happen.  Any help is appriciated.
    We are running Macs with OS X verison 10.8.4
    Thanks
    Christinia

    Hi Christina,
    For first issue, you are scanning your PDFs as PDF/A i.e why Acrobat 10 cannot edit them. (Acrobat 8 could edit PDF/A, this feature not to enable editing on PDF/A files were added in later versions). Now you can:
    1. Either turnoff the checkbox to create PDF/A while scanning as shown in image below: You need to click on "PDF Output Options"  button on the scan dialog to access this and other options.
    or
    2. When you open PDF/A in Acrobat X, you will get a blue message bar at the top, saying that "This file has been opened read only" along with the button "Enable Editing". You can click on "Enable Editing" to modify the pdf. See image below:
    This should take care of the first issue.
    Regarding the second issue of PDF attachments, I am not sure what could be the problem. It may be an OS issue related to file association. You can try associating the pdf files to Acrobat. To do this, Right Click on any pdf file and click "Get Info", then under "Open With" panel, select Acrobat and click on "Change All". See image below:
    Thanks,

  • Acrobat 7.0 Standard Random Hangs on scan-to-pdf

    Scan to pdf will randomly hang about 3/4 of the way through a multi-page document scan with no error or warning messages.
    Acrobat totally hangs (can't even move the window) and I have to kill the process in the task manager at which time a message appears saying "the process is waiting for input from you". There are no dialogs for input displayed.
    System: WinXP, scanner is Dell 964 all in one, Acrobat 7.1.0.
    I routinely scan multiple pages in the dell utility without problems.
    Does anyone have a suggestion how to fix this or provide a method for debugging?
    Thanks.

    If you can use AA7 on Win 7, you may be successful. However, you will have to print to the Adobe PDF print. If you were using an earlier version of WORD (2003), then PDF Maker may work. In any case, AcroTray will likely not work. That means you will have to print to the Adobe PDF printer with print-to-file selected. Then open that file in Distiller to complete the process. A bit combersome, but may work. I have done it with AA5 and Win 7 starter -- a bit of a pain and an upgrade is really appropriate. If you have a 64 bit system, you may be totally out of luck.
    So, you may be successful in getting AA7 to work in some sense. Do not expect perfection of no errors. Good luck.

  • Adobe X PDF files converted to jpg, edited and converted back to PDF have ragged, unclear text.  I didn't have this problem with Acrobat 9 standard.  What is the remedy for this.  If this is the best I can expect, I won't be able to use X standard.

    Adobe X PDF files converted to jpg, edited and converted back to PDF have ragged, unclear text.  I didn't have this problem with Acrobat 9 standard.  What is the remedy for this.  If this is the best I can expect, I won't be able to use X standard.

    I can't imagine any worse workflow than converting to JPEG to edit text, then back to PDF. Text in a PDF is a vector thing, smooth at all resolutions. And JPEG is made for photos. EVERY conversion to JPEG and back loses quality but how much loss there is will vary.
    If you must go to an image format, try PNG.

  • Scan to pdf not available in Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard

    Hi,
    I have Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard installed on a PC with Windows XP Pro. The scan to PDF feature is not available anywhere in the program but should be as far as I am informed. Does anyone know what to do? Thanks.

    Do you have a scanner attached? Does it work in standard graphics packages? Is it set up with a Twain interface? Then again, I have Pro and it may be a feature that is not in AA7 Std -- can't answer that one, but the following link gives a hint that you may need Pro: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/pdfs/acro7_matrix.pdf

  • Problem reopening and/or refreshing PDF files using Acrobat Reader V. 8.0

    I upgraded to Adobe Acrobat Reader V. 8.0 and have encountered problems refreshing PDF files in the Safari 2.0.4 browser when I am logged into the secure area for Value Line Publishing. Some of the PDF Files in this area can be opened and/or refreshed multiple times. Other PDF files in this area allow me to open them once. I cannot reopen those previously viewed files (or refresh the screen) -- after refreshing, the window changes to a blank white screen, and the files do not reopen.
    I am perplexed because I do not have difficulty refreshing the PDF files (within Safari) using the native PDF viewer, I did not have problems refreshing files using Acrobat Reader V. 7.0 and I do not appear to have problems refreshing PDF files using Acrobat Reader V. 8.0 when I am outside the secure area or on other web sites.
    I have replaced the Acrobat Reader plug-in, manually removed all remnants of previous versions of Acrobat Reader and reinstalled V. 8.0. and I also upgraded from Mac OS 10.4.8 to 10.4 9, all to no avail.
    I can clear the Safari cache files as a temporary solution, but I encounter the same difficulties with the “problematic” files once they have been opened again.
    I can also download the PDF files to my hard drive and refresh them multiple times within Safari and also using Acrobat Reader V. 8.0
    The software personnel at Value Line Publishing have investigated their system and have referred me back to Apple. Has anyone heard of similar problems associated with Adobe Acrobat Reader V. 8.0 used in conjunction with Safari 2.0.4?

    Hi Rodney
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    This sounds like one of those "oddities", contributed to by a few sources.
    I can clear the Safari cache files as a temporary solution, but I encounter the same difficulties with the “problematic” files once they have been opened again.
    Wondering if you disabled the Safari Cache would the refresh function work correctly? As a test you can disable the Safari Cache by Emptying the Cache first via the Safari menu, then Quit Safari. Now go to the Finder>Your User Library>Caches>Safari. Single click on the Safari folder, then Apple Key + I to open Info panel. There, check the "locked" box. This prevents further additions to the cache. The downside, you lose your ability to upload images etc. within Safari (my cache is disabled, so I use Firefox for the uploads).
    Then restart Safari. Try the PDF from within Safari.

  • Problems opening PDFs created with Acrobat in TFS

    Hi,
    I know this might not really be a supported issue, but any thoughts you might have would be appreciated!
    I've been creating PDFs using Primo PDF and a trial of Acrobat X. I then put them on TFS / MS Visual Studio 2000.
    So, when I try to open a PDF I've checked in, the ones I've created in Primo are fine and launch whereas the ones created in Acrobat won't open and an error message about Inconsistent Line Endings is displayed.
    It says:
    "The line endings are not consistent. Do you want to normalize them....
    Line ending: Windows (CR LF)"
    The PDFs DO work when I open them from the normal place in the windows file system. However, when I try to "normalize" them by clicking yes, it breaks them completely.
    Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and what I can do to fix it? I'm assuming it must be something to do with the conversion or document settings, because this only happens to PDFs created with Acrobat.

    In Acrobat X, SharePoint Integration has been added which allows users to check-out/check-in the document from within Acrobat. Clicking the file from document library in Internet Explorer opens the file in Acrobat. The configuration that needs to be done on the SharePoint server is explained in the following KB article in section 11.1.

  • How to auto-fill data into scanned paper form converted to Acrobat 9 PDF

    Hello,
    I am new to Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.  I have scanned a paper form/document that originally  had various data lines to be written on using an ink pen.  I saved the scanned PDF as an Acrobat 9 PDF.  I have added various pertinent text fields and checkboxs to PDF form and saved it with appropriate extended setting to allow end-user to type on PDF and save a copy.  At the bottom form there is a name/signature text field for end-user name to be typed and a calendar text date when name/signature text field is entered .
    I need to send this PDF form to various end-users using (Groupwise/Novell) email to have them sign or type their name and date at bottom of form.  Is there a way that Adobe Acrobat 9/PDF will recognize the email sender and allow the name/signature field to automatically fill-in signature/name textbox.  Are there tools like javascript, etc. that will help me accomplish this task?
    I don't know where to begin. I am a newbie.  Please help!

  • Is 'Optimize Scanned PDF' available in Acrobat X Standard?

    Can anyone with Acrobat X Standard tell me whether the 'Optimize Scanned PDF' option is available?  We have need to buy a new license and this is one feature that we use, but I can't determine whether this feature is available in Standard or if I would need to buy the Pro version.  Thanks!

    Yes, Optimize Scanned PDF comes with Acrobat Standard also.

  • Font Error Message While Editing a PDF File with Acrobat XI Pro

    Hello,
    I have Acrobat XI Pro running on Windows 8.1
    I scanned a PDF File and then went to "Tools - Text Recognition - In This File - Edit - OutPutStyle ClearScan etc etc" and got the file into "Edit Mode".
    When I replace a "number/digit", the replacement digit font is "very small" and there is a "Yellow Triangle" error message which says the following.
    "The Original Font Fd 3168 is not available or can't be used in editing. Acrobat is using the font "Minion Pro" font in its place.
    Anybody know how to overcome this error message/problem OR alternatively how do I change the FONT of the whole page to some other Font?
    Also how do I find a "similar or equivalent font" for Fd 3168 font that Adobe Acrobat says, is not available.
    TIA

    Hi Bill.  Thanks for replying. 
    Unfortunately, I don't have the option of using the original DOCX file.  The author lost it, leaving only the pdf around
    I'm using AA XI 11.0.06.  Upgraded this morning.  That's running on Windows 7 Ultimate 64.
    I get the boundary boxes by clicking on the 'edit text and images' tool, and they appear.  Or don't in this case
    I only need to change a few characters in the file.   However, even just opening up the file in AA and then saving, the "A = " "text" gets deleted.
    Could it perhaps be something to do with embedded or missing maths fonts on my machine?  I mean, I don't get any warnings, just can't do anything with the A and AB italic bold text.
    Thanks!
