Transparent box doesn't show up in PDF

I am using CS4- Indesign on Mac 10.6.3. I have designed a sidebar with 2 boxes on top of each other - the top one is slightly lower and more to the right so they are not right on top of each other. The top box is also transparent with an opacity of about 70%. When I make a pdf (Acrobat 6 and 5) of this page, the top box looses it's transparency and turns opaque. When I use Acrobat 4, it comes out like I want it. Is there a setting I should be changing to make it work in Acrobat 6 and 5? Thanks!

Here is my page in INdesign CS4 and also a pdf in Acrobat 6. I am viewing them in Acrobat. Another thing you'll notice is that I don't have a problem with the transparency used in the upper corners where it says "Training" ... Hope this helps!

  • When I try to send multiple photo from my photo albums and hit share, the email box doesn't show up.  Whats going on?

    When I try to send multiple photo from my photo albums and hit share, the email box option doesn't show up.  The only options are facebook, message,   It was there last evening and I used it.  Whats going on?

    There is a limit on the number of photos that you can send in one email from the photos app, but I thought it was five. In any event, you know that you can send mutiple photos from the mail app itself and you can send more than 5.
    When you are typing an email - Tap and hold down in the body of the message area and select "Insert Photo or Video" from the black pop up options bar. Select the photos that you want to include from the photos app window that appears. Then hit return on the keyboard and start the process all over again.
    You can insert photos, type text, enter more photos .... any way that you would like to do it.

  • Out Box doesn't show

    My out Box does not show when i send mail of any length. Any ideas?
    Doug

    Tiger Mail only shows your Outbox when you have email waiting to be sent. Email messages appear in the Outbox when you attempt to send a message when you're working offline, or if Mail tried but was unable to send a message.
    Once the Outbox appears in your mail viewer windows, it remains visible until you quit Mail or close all of your viewer windows.
    Unless a message cannot be sent, there is no reason for the Outbox mailbox to be visible.
    If you want to see the status of the sending process, open the Activity Viewer.

  • Linked .ai file doesn't show correctly in pdf, what to do?

    I have placed into my InDesign document an Illustrator file which contains white vector graphic elements on a transparent background (a map with lines and texts converted to vectors). The linked file shows correctly in InDesign but when I make a .pdf file it omits some of the texts (not all) in the .ai file. All of the texts have been converted to vectors so that shouldn't have anything to do with the problem. The quality of the pdf doesn't make any difference either. Could someone help me?

    Strange...Try this
    - Open you .ai file
    - Create a "my white" spot colour,  (I mean creat a white spot colour, and name it "my white" to not to be confused with the standard white)
    - select all your white elements and coulour them with  "my white"
    - save into standard .ai file
    - import the file into Indesign, the "my white" should appear in your colour swatch pannel
    - convert "my white" into CMYK ( you'll get the framed little quarter just beside your colour swatch)
    - export  your pdf file, whatever RVB or CMYK should work with both

  • Part of image doesn't show in exported PDF

    I am working on a trifold brochure. On rightmost of the three panels I have used a patterned image as a background with overlying text and image. I have applied a transparency gradient to the patterned image. Looks fine on screen but the  right two thirds of the patterned image is blank in the PDF. The gradient is 100% transparent at the top and 0% transparent at the bottom with some stops in between. It also prints correctly from ID but not the PDF.
    I'm using ID CS5 and a Mac with the latest OS.
    Any clues at to how to fix the problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Ok, I didn't view it in Acrobat but in Preview. My problem is that I need to send the PDF to several people that are using a variety of computers, OS's and programs - none under my control. BTW it opens just fine in Acrobat Pro 9.4.1. I opened it in Acrobat and then did a Save As. Opened the Saved As file in Preview and the problem was still there.
    The ID export settings were:
    [High Quality Print] (modified)
    PDF/X-4:2008
    Acrobat 5 (PDF 1.4)
    I've tried several combinations but nothing eliminated the problem.
    Unfortunately I don't have a place to post the full file for your viewing. It is 3.5 MB.

  • Type on a path doesn't show up in PDF when exported/printed

    I have a file with leader lines that I typed text onto the paths. It looks fine onscreen in InDesign, but when printed or exported to PDF, the lines show up and the text does not. Any ideas?

    Thanks, Bob. This is the first time in 3 years that an upgrade patch has actually worked for my particular issue - I'm glad to see that there is some use to them as I was beginning to wonder!

  • LiveCycle 8.1 on Vista: dropdown list box doesn't show all values

    On Vista Business O/S, in LiveCycle 8.1, I am using a dropdown list for 254 items, not dynamically loaded (all values are declared in the definition of the object). When the form runs, the dropdown list appears. I can scroll through the list. However, the scroll stops short, never showing the last few items on the list.<br /><br />   Is there some limit I have exceeded or is there some know bug I have encountered or is there some other action I need to take so I can choose any item from the dropdown list?<br /><br />   Dropdown list box is defined as user-entered - optional, default <none>.<br />254 text items, longest item is 19 characters, average item is 10 characters long. <br /><br />   Thanks in advance for any help, hints, or tips you provide.<br /><br />Dr. Dave Dyer

    Dear Friends....
    it seems to be a bug of the SQL Server Data Tools, (SQL Server 2012 SP2)... I did the deploy of my Dashboard, (and details Reports), to my Test Reporting Services Server.. and everything works as expected....

    The battery alone is a $5 to $15 part.  Hard drives vary in cost, and depending on the iMac, they may or may not be able to install a third party hard drive, or one resold through Apple.    The resold through Apple drives tend to cost more.  This article discusses the varying successes of third party drives on iMacs:

    The labor costs depend on the store as well as the time to get the parts in stock.    Call around.

  • 'Open a File' dialog box doesn't show 'Favorites'

    InDesign CS6, Windows 7:
    File/Open gives me this:
    Notice there are no 'Favorites' on the left.  I have to 'browse' for my file each time.  I have a ton of files on the network, and it takes several clicks to get to them.  Annoying when I'm opening several files a day.  The 'Recent Places' isn't too helpful here either.
    Now look at what happens in InDesign CC, Windows 7 with a File/Open:
    Look at all the 'Favorites' and easy browsing on the left side.  Why are the 'Open a File' dialog boxes so different in CS6 and CC?  I want the CS6 'Open' dialog to be just like the CC one.  (I prefer to use CS6, CC is buggy on my system.)

    Not helpful.
    What it is... is cumbersome and un-necessary.  Every other program in Windows  (even Word Pad) opens with the 'standard'  dialog with Favorites on the left.  Why did Adobe program it differently?  There has to be a fix in Preferences or something...

  • IWeb doesn't show JPEGs and PDFs after move to new computer.

    I bought a new Mac mini (running OS X 10.8.2), moved all files from the old one, installed the most recent Domain.sites file from the old computer into the new computer's User/Library/Application Support/iWeb, but now iWeb opens with all embedded .jpg and .pdf files missing and a long list of "missing file" error messages appearing on startup. All of the .html, .png, .gif, .css and .js files appear to be working O.K. Everything in the "Sites" folder is unchanged since iWeb worked perfectly in the old computer. What can I do to fix this?

    Version 1.1.2. I didn't realize until you asked and I checked, that iWeb has been discontinued and I must have transferred my version over from my old computer along with all the other applications. I see I can still buy an old CD version of iLife '09 from third-party vendors that includes iWeb '09, which is presumably version 3.0 and upgradable to 3.0.4 -- near as I can tell the last version before the program went out of production. Evidently iWeb 1.1.2 has compatibility issues with OS X Mountain Lion? I don't want to buy iWeb '09 (the other components of iLife '09 are useless, since 2012 versions were shipped with OS X 10.8) unless I can get some assurance it will work with my existing files. I have RapidWeaver 4.4.2 but I don't have time to recreate everything from scratch. It's frustrating that there's evidently no way to export all the work I've put into my iWeb website over the years into a form that can be edited using other web design software. Or is there? I bought RapidWeaver expecting to be able to open and edit my iWeb files. It's all HTML and JavaScript, isn't it? Why aren't all my files interchangeable between web design programs?

  • FF Webpg/Tools/Downloads box doesn't show any downloads. How long are they shown?

    Download Bx can't be just for FF downloads because Addons & Exts sections show items. Extentions section shows 3 exts: (enabled) Microsoft .NET framework Asst. o.o.o, & 2 (Disabled) Trend Micro BEP FF Ext incompatible with FF 7.0 When downloading before the past ones were still shown until I clicked the "clear list" button. This maybe prob with Windows & not FF, but can FF fix this & another prob (Other prob is Win XP can't install update KB2570791) if I download FF 7.0 again?

    I actually don't know what "quick tools" are; it seems that all the default tools show on your screenshot.
    You can configure your toolbar using the View menu.

  • Interactive Button Doesn't Show in PDF

    I have created a button in InDesign (CS3) and when I convert into a PDF the button doesn't show in the PDF. I have made sure that the visible option is selected the button options. Am I missing somehting?

    Are you exporting or printing to PDF? You must export.
    You must also select the options for interactive content.
    What preset, if any are you using?

  • Facbook chatbok doesn't show

    hi all .. i am new user for mac and when uploading my facebook home page the chat box doesn't show , i can't see my online friends or chat with them .. any idea why?

    I assume you're using Safari? Check whether JavaScript is enabled in the security settings. If you have any plugins, such as ad blockers installed, try disabling those. If that doesn't help, can you try another browser such as Firefox 4?

  • CS4: Desprately needing help-Box that appears in Indesign doesn't appear in exported PDF.

    I put a box, which will be a frame around illustrations, in the master of this small book so that each illustration will be framed. The frame is colored. It looks great on the .indd file, but on the PDF, the frame is gone. I did it again, this time making the frame bigger (1 pt instead of .5 pt), and 100% color instead of 50%. Still didn't show. What's wrong? Of course I'm noticing this when I'm under a deadline and the printer is waiting. Yikes.
    Thanks.

    Richard: the master where I created the box doesn't have any other layers. But you gave me an idea. I made a bigger box on the master and by golly, there the box was on the PDF. I guess the illustrations on the book pages were covering the box, which was really only on the master. The bigger box looks OK, although I'd like it smaller; it'll work. Thanks!

  • Hyperlinks show up with a box around them in Pages 2 PDF's.

    I am excited that web links now show up as hyperlinks. However, when I export a .pdf of the document, the hyperlinks end up with a box around them that makes them unreadable.
    Any idea how to get rid of the box. It doesn't show up in the original document. Only when you view invisibles.

    Dennis,
    you are right with your thought. I am thankful for every info to get better in every way. The posts in the Pages Discussions are easy to understand and so it should be. Wow, I can tell you, that this is very different to some 3D forums.
    After I know how to start the English version of Pages (thank you Matthias, this was a very good advice), I think most people can follow my explanations better, without the time of waiting for your title translations
