Text shifts in DWF to PDF conversion

Anyone else having this issue?
We create DWF's from Autodesk Revit Architecture and would like to batch convert by right-clicking the files and choosing convert to adobe pdf or combine supported files in Adobe PDF.
The problem is that when we use this method, text that is center or right justified in Revit (and in the subsequent DWF) shifts and becomes left justified in the PDF.. Causing legibility issues.
We can creat the pdf by opening the DWF and printing to Adobe PDF without the problem occurring. But this is time consuming and tedious when we are talking about a lot of files.
We have multiple versions of Acrobat - 8std, 9 Pro, 9 Pro ext. And it doesn't seem to matter which is used.
Any help would be appreciated - see attached

I've not had the issue, so I'm taking a guess on this one, but is Acrobat Distiller set to embed all fonts?
In Distiller, Settings > Edit Adobe PDF Settings > Fonts > Embed all fonts. Also checkmark: Subset embedded fonts....100%.

DWF to pdf conversion

When I try to convert a DWF file to pdf, only part of the document prints. If I open the document and print it with adobe, the entire document prints. How can I get the entire document to convert without opening it?

Text shifting on imposed PDF; distill vs export

Hi experts. Please help me solve a mystery!
Mac OS 10.7, InDesign CS5 7.0.4
Here's the problem: I export a PDF (using modified version of the built-in X-1a PDF export preset to include bleed and crop marks)
Fonts are embedded, no problems when preflighting in Acrobat.
The printer imposes the file by placing my PDF into spreads in InDesign CS6 on Mac (OS unknown) and exports to PDF using unknown settings (The PDF producer is Adobe PDF Library 10.0.1).
The imposed PDF I get back from the printer has text shifting (the PDF i send to him looks fine--no gaps).
It looks like there are random blank spaces in the text and misaligned numbered lists. (left image, image on right shows original ID file)
Our production person insists that my exporting the PDF is to blame and says we must use distiller for sending files to the printer.
When I print to postscript then distill, the shifting does not occur in the imposed PDF i get back from the printer.
Everything I have read on here for years has said the postscript/distill route is bad/old/unnecessary/proof I should get a new printer.
Production claims fonts are not properly embedded when exporting PDF (patently false as the document info show that fonts are embedded).
Unless I can explain, and fix the shifting type problem, I will have to stick with postscript/distilling workflow.
(Although this is also not a guarantee--i have had the text shift/gap happen in PDFs that went through distiller. There the problem seemed to be a bullet glyph that was CID-H encoded.
When I switched the font from a TT to PS version of the font, it used different encoding and the shifting/gap was fixed in the PDF i got back from the printer.)
Please share your thoughts!
Thanks.

OK. I've gotten the original PDF files that were exported from CS5 and then placed into a new CS6 document and then exported from the OP. By the way, the problem is not limited to exported PDF, but also with PDF created by distillation of PostScript from CS5.
I cannot replicate the problem by simply creating a new InDesign CS6 document and placing pages into the new document and exporting.
However, I noted that some crop marks in the original CS5-exported PDF file were not in the CS6-exported file. That leads me to believe that something edited the CS6-exported PDF file. Furthermore, the CS6-exported PDF file was not only labelled as PDF/X-1a, but it also had the Trapped True key on. For exported PDF, InDesign provides no trapping function and absolutely no way of setting that trapping key in the PDF file. But Adobe Illustrator does provide the means of doing trapping and/or labeling a PDF/X file as being trapped with the Trapped True key.
At this point, I believe that some combination of the following events occurred:
*     The CS5 exported PDF file(s) were edited, possibly in Illustrator or with object editing in Acrobat Pro either with native tools or third party plug-ins and then resaved with the resultant PDF file(s) placed in the CS6 document. This editing may have messed up spacing of text that used ligatures, alternate characters, old style figures, etc. even though such text was not directly edited.
*     The CS6 exported imposed spreads were subsequently opened in Illustrator or some other third party trapping engine and resaved with the Trapped True key set. In the process of resaving the file, problems per (1) above occurred.
Conclusions:
(1)     Whether PDF/X-1a or PDF/X-4 was used for export anywhere in this process is irrelevant. The designs in question didn't use any transparency or color management. Furthermore, no CID-encoded fonts were involved and no font name conflicts were involved. However, the fonts used in the original InDesign documents were OpenType CFF fonts with extended character sets which were in fact accessed for ligatures, superscripts, subscripts, etc.
(2)     Previously non-disclosed steps were used in the workflow between the CS5 export and the resultant files I got to see. Using Illustrator as a PDF editor or as trapping software for PDF files in general is a possible / likely cause of the problems. If not Illustrator, then some very defective PDF workflow software for trapping and/or editing was used.
(3)     Although InDesign is not designed as an imposition tool, the fact is that it is used for amalgamation of content such as magazines, journals, etc. where ads and other content as PDF (and other formats) is placed within InDesign pages. This appears to be working correctly and is not the source of the problem.
The OP is dealing with problematic workflow, but not with InDesign problems.

Mysteriously added text downloading to Acrobat Create PDF Online

Working on Acrobat.com's create an online pdf web page I
downloaded a Word Document from my pc to Acrobat.com and opened the
Word document (on Acrobat's web site) to find the document
different than the original Word document on my pc.
The Word document (as well as the pdf conversion displayed
next to it) on the Acrobat.com web page mysteriously had an added
line of text showing a previously unknown date (January 9, 2006)
inserted before the body of the original text but under the
original page header. The font also looked slightly different
throughout the body and header of the document and the document
itself was extended to 3 pages long instead of 2. In the conversion
the now added 3rd page also mysteriously included the standard
header and footer and renumbered the first two pages to include
this new 3rd page (page x of 3) in the footer.. When I went back to
the original Word document on my pc nothing was added or changed.
I downloaded another Word document with a different page
header from the same pc to the Acrobat webpage and while that
document looks graphically slightly different there was no text
added.
It seems that there must be some sort of embedded legacy date
code or script at the beginning of the Word document that while not
visible in either the reveal codes side pane, or showing up in any
way when working or printing the document in Word is somehow
revealed in the text of the document when downloaded to the Acrobat
site even before its converted to a pdf file.
How can I manage this?

I am using Windows XP Professional O/S and Firefox as my
browser. I get that the font options will change the file as opened
at Acrobat that may change the layout,
but,....
how do you explain the mysterious extra date 'string' that
appeared at the start of the word document as it showed up at
Acrobat's website?
Since this is standard out of the box Word and included fonts
(garamond 12) why does this do this.

Problem in PDF conversion of a Smartform

Hi Experts,
I have Chinese text and english text in the Smartform
When see print preview of Smartfrom the output is perfect
But when i convert the OTF to PDF using CONVERT_OTF FM and send as mail attachment,
The chinese characters are JUNK and conversion don't occur properly.
For english TEXT i use Times new roman font
For Chinese Text i use CNSONG
I have used other FM as well CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF, the results were negative.
Please advise
Regards
Balaji R

Hello Davide,
We got this solution from SAP active global support.
I suppose it works in some cases only.
Our scenario is when we try to create PDF of the smartform using FM convert_otf and send as mail attachment.
We can able to see chinese chracters when giving the print preview of the form, but during PDF conversion we get Junk chinese characters.
Even if you have multiple languages in your form, SAP proposes to use 'ZPDFUC' as device type.
My question has the solution proposed by you works in all cases?
Please advise.Thanks.
Best regards
Balaji R

PDF Conversion Truncated

Hello, I have an issue when performing the Spool to PDF conversion. I am using FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF to convert an ALV list to a PDF file. When I run my report in the foreground, everything works correctly, the PDF file is attached and then emailed to the appropriate recipient. When I schedule the job to run in the background, the contents of the attachment that is created is truncated on the right side cutting off half of the report (the font is also larger). I am out of ideas on how to solve this issue. Any help would be appreciated.

Is there a trial run for pdf conversion

The PDF conversion tool sells for 1.99/mo BUT must pay for full yr (about $23). Is the a trial run I can try on a file to see the type of conversion done?
In the past, I've done cut & paste from Adobe to MS Word BUT I was getting individual blank spaces put into words that didn't belong.

Only way to get rid of the spaces is to manually go in and delete them.
Want to see a trial conversions to see if this problem goes away. Also to see if it will convert text headers.

Scanner to pdf conversion problem

For some unknown reason I recently started having problems with Adobe Acrobat X Pro (version 10.1.4) in converting via the scanner to pdf conversion basic text documents. It used to take a minute or two to convert a basic text document, now it is taking almost a half hour for a basic text one page conversion. Any ideas?

Sorry for the inconvenience caused while scanning. We are actively trying to fix the issue and need help from users like you in narrowing down the fix. I’d request you to do the following when you run into this issue:
• Please send me a private message or e-mail me at [email protected] immediately and I will get back to you within one business day for next steps
• Please take a back-up or copy of any folders or files (e.g. App Data), in case you choose to delete them as a workaround

Automated report/ PDF conversion with AppleScript

Hello-
I am attempting to PDF a spreadsheet from Dropbox, and email it to a set list of recipients with AppleScript. Much of this I have been able to figure out, but I am having some issues with the PDF conversion. As you can see below, I am still working on sending the xls file, and have not yet been able to get AppleScript to convert a specific tab of the file to aPDF. I expect scheduling to be handled theough crontab.
Current script is as follows:
tell application "Finder"
          set folderPath to folder "Macintosh HD:Users:user:Dropbox:folder:Calculated PO Sheet"
          set theFile to first file in folderPath as alias
          set fileName to name of theFile
end tell
set theSubject to "Current PO Report" date
set theBody to "See attached."
set theAddress to "recipient email"
set theAttachment to "CALCULATED PO SHEET.xlsx"
set theSender to "sender email"
tell application "Mail"
          set theNewMessage to make new outgoing message with properties{subject:theSubject, content:theBody & return & return, visible:true}
          tell theNewMessage
                    set visibile to true
                    set sender to theSender
make new to recipient at end of to recipients with properties {address:theAddress}
                    try
make new attachment with properties {file name:theAttachment} at after the last word ofthe last paragraph
                              set message_attachment to 0
                    on error errmess -- oops
log errmess -- log the error
                              set message_attachment to 1
                    end try
                    log "message_attachment = " & message_attachment
#send
          end tell
end tell

Smart form: Spool to PDF Conversion more than 100 pages.

Hi folks,
I have an issue with Function Module (FM) CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF when the report to be converted has more than 100 pages.....i have explained this scenario as below
We have been using the FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF to convert ABAP report to PDF file and then send this via mail using FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1.....
PDF conversion using FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF works well if the number of report pages is less than 100....i.e the table pdf of the FM will contain the output as expected.....
If the report has more than 100 pages, the the FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF will schedule the conversion job as a background job and returns with a SY-subrc eq 0 and the table parameter pdf will ne empty.
Could you suggest me a woorkaround in this situtaion...i.e how do I then get the output of the background job
And any process to convert Spool to PDF if having more than 100 pages.
Thanks in Advance............

Pb,
If the report has more than 100 pages, the the FM CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF will schedule the conversion job as a background job and returns with a SY-subrc eq 0 and the table parameter pdf will ne empty
i would suggest you to if pages are more than 100 than you need to send report output to sp01 with spool request number by using fm job_open..job_close..
than from sp01 you can convert pdf by running RSTXPDFT4 in se38.
hope this would solve your problem.

Hello,
Since this issue is mainly related to iTextSharp which belongs to third-party, I would recommend you consider posting this issue on its support website to get help.

My hard drive died last week, and I needed to install a new one. Previously, I was able to save a .doc with text and inserted photo to .pdf and then to .jpg. Now I can get the .pdf but can't determine what to do to convert to .jpg. Does anyone know ?

Rather than do that, which means starting over from scratch, losing all your edits, organisation and so on, why not simply use iPhoto Library Manager to revert the Library to the older version? Easier, less destructive.
The instructions on that are here
If you really want to start over: you can access the Originals folder simply by going to your Pictures Folder and finding the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
