Text not showing in PDF created for print

After exporting an illustrator document I tred to make a high quality PDF for print but the text does not show in the PDF file.

Impossible to know. You have not provided any info about your document, what font you used, what appearances on the text, what PDF settings, what system or even what version of AI plus how you review the document. From the font simply not being allowed to be embedded to specific appearances not rendering correctly to unsuitable PDF settings there could be anything at work here. You need to be much more specific.

ALT text not appearing in PDF for EPS files

Hi,
I have a created a document in InDesign CS5.5 which has images and text. the document should be accessibility complaint.
The document has images which are in PSD, tiff, eps and PNG files. I have applied the Alt text for each images.
After I export the document as PDF, when I mouse over the images, the Alt text is appearing for all the image formats except EPS file format. But Acrobat reads the Alt text for the image.
I am wondering why the Acrobat is not showing the ALT text for EPS file formats when i mouse over the image.
Is anyone facing the same problem? should I do anything in the settings?
please help.
Regards
Ramji V K

The EPS image is not created in photoshop. the image is created in Illustrator.
Also, what do you mean by Single image? can you please explain a bit more about that?
Thanks.

IFilter 9 not searching OCR .PDFs post SP2 for Office 2007 Servers

Prior to the installation of Service Pack 2 for Office 2007 Servers, .PDF files that were scanned in and then ran against Optical Character Recognition software could be searched with the iFliter 9 for Windows MOSS, x64. Now, those specific files no longer are searchable however; files that were converted directly from another application, such as MS Word or Excel, that were converted directly into .PDF files work fine. Has anyone ever seen anything like this or can give me a direction to go to get this resolved? Adobe's support for this product is non-existant and I am sure Microsoft will not be a help since it is not their product.

See if this discussion helps:

How to make specific text not appear in pdf print

I would like to display some text only on screen, but not when printed on paper. How do I do that ?

Yepp I know that, but can we make a service which behaves like facebook or twitter app.?
For e.g. When we click on share, it would show myapp in this share list. So I could share links with myapp.
I heard about "Custom URL Schemes" through which third-party apps can communicate, but how could I implement this for every link on ios browser?
Any suggestion would be helpfull for me.
Thanks

Using Oracle Text to search through WORD, EXCEL and PDF documents

Hello again,
What I would like to know is if I have a WORD or PDF document stored in a table. Is it possible to use Oracle Text to search through the actual WORD or PDF document?
Thanks
Doug

Yes you can do context sensitive searches on both PDF and Word docs. With the PDF you need to make sure they are text and not images. Some scanners will create PDFs that are nothing more than images of document.
Below is code sample that I made some time back to demonstrate the searching capabilities of Oracle Text. Note that the example makes use of the inso_filter that is no longer shipped with Oracle begging with Patch set 10.1.0.4. See metalink note 298017.1 for the changes. See the following link for more information on developing with Oracle Text.
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/text.101/b10729/toc.htm
begin example.
-- The following needs to be executed
-- as sys.
DROP DIRECTORY docs_dir;
CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY docs_dir
AS 'C:\sql\oracle_text\documents';
GRANT READ ON DIRECTORY docs_dir TO text;
-- End sys ran SQL
DROP TABLE db_docs CASCADE CONSTRAINTS PURGE;
CREATE TABLE db_docs (
id NUMBER,
format VARCHAR2(10),
location VARCHAR2(50),
document BLOB,
CONSTRAINT i_db_docs_p PRIMARY KEY(id)
-- Several notes need to be made about this anonymous block.
-- First the 'DOCS_DIR' parameter is a directory object name.
-- This directory object name must be in upper case.
DECLARE
f_lob BFILE;
b_lob BLOB;
document_name VARCHAR2(50);
BEGIN
document_name := 'externaltables.doc';
INSERT INTO db_docs
VALUES (1, 'binary', 'C:\sql\oracle_text\documents\externaltables.doc', empty_blob())
RETURN document INTO b_lob;
f_lob := BFILENAME('DOCS_DIR', document_name);
DBMS_LOB.FILEOPEN(f_lob, DBMS_LOB.FILE_READONLY);
DBMS_LOB.LOADFROMFILE(b_lob, f_lob, DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(f_lob));

I can not search pdf doc for word or terms in doc, comes back as not found although I know it exists

I have a Mac which prior to upgrading to snow leopard I could search a pdf document for words or terms. Since the upgrade I can not successfully do this search. Although I know the term or word exists in the document the search comes up with Not found. Help!

What you're seeing is ASCII unicode. The OCR of the text in the body of the PDF was either improperly performed or not at all... or the data has been corrupted.

Robohelp 8 - Not searching PDF

Hello,
I know this has been discussed in multiple threads as I have been through every single one.
Issue:
Robohelp is not searching content (text) in PDF files.
I am not a computer logged into a network.. I'm trying to figure out what the problem is.
Running Robohelp 8.02
Project is WebHelp "not Pro"
Output is to local C:\ drive
Here is a sample PDF that i'm trying to make searchable (I have many more)
Download Link:
http://www.mediafire.com/?3jj9r57yuzj3r1s
I've created a new project and tried just putting that particular PDF file as a baggage and linking and it still wouldn't find information on the PDF.
I'm starting to think it has to do something with Robohelp being installed on administrator account and me being on a different account, is not providing the correct search results. The compile goes so fast that it seems its not even attempting to create search terms.
Any suggestions would be awesome. If someone wants to test the PDF in the above link on their own and see what results they get, that would probably tell me where the issues is.
Thanks,
Nathan

I read somewhere ese to copy and past in word, change the font and remake the PDF, but when I paste it is all werid code script.
I really need to search this doc, it hundreds of pages!!!!!!
I am using Adobe Reader 11.0.02, on a Mac with OSX 10.8.3
I was able to search this same file on my old mac with old reader, until the system failed and stopped searching anything...
Please HELP!!!! Is tehre a plug-in or something?
Thanks

Hyperlinked text--the text, not the link--disappears when I create a PDF from a book in FM 11

I am editing a FrameMaker 11 document with some text that is hyperlinked to a website. Earlier PDFs output fine. When I created the last PDF, some of the text disappeared in the PDF, but it's still visible in FM. On the PDF, the hyperlink is active in the blank space and it works to go to the website. Specifically the hyperlinked text is part numbers in a table with a shaded background--I mention this because if I open a page of the defective PDF in Illustrator--the text that has disappeared is behind the shaded square. Some of the hyperlinked part numbers are visible in the PDF--this seems almost random. It's not just part numbers or rows where I have edited something. I'm editing the document, I didn't create it. My background is InDesign and I am a novice in FrameMaker. Appreciate any guidance or suggestions.

Not really sure that I fixed the problem, but I did find a work around and wanted to post it if someone else runs across the same issue. Apparently the document creator used lots of custom rules and shading. If I pulled up the custom rules and shading palette and just unchecked both the custom ruling and shading boxes, it allowed me to create the print file correctly--the disappearing part numbers were on the new PDF. I didn't have to update the whole book which I didn't want to do because I feared it would mess up the rules and shading. Just unchecking the box before creating the PDF solved that issue for my purposes.

Acrobat 9.5 - use Touchup text Tool to edit PDF. Updates do not display. But, if I "save as" Word doc, the edits appear in Word. This feature worked in earlier versions of 9.x patches.

I have a suspicion you're working with a scanned document that has had OCR run to recognize the text. The recognized text may be stored on an invisible layer above the image of the text, and that is what you're toucing up. It's invisible, so you don't see it, but retains the changes, so exporting produces the new edits.
When you run OCR to recognize scanned text,, try using the ClearScan option, instead of Searchable Text. See this help page on Acrobat (this is for version X, but still applies):
