Trouble displaying Mandarin Chinese pdf in Preview

Hi there,
I have a very similar problem: a number of pdf files that I can see perfectly well in Safari/GoogleChrome do NOT show correctly in Preview or ANY iPad app I have (Notability, Adobe, PDF Expertm iAnnotate, Dropbox etc.).
The problem is that punctuation -- with the expection of periods or bolded text -- does not show properly. For example, commas and quotation marks to not show, and some numbers to not show.
Moreover, once I have annotated/viewed the problematic file on the IPad and resync to dropbox to view on Mac vis Adobe (which I do with most pdf files with no problems), I get an error message upon reopening the pdf file saying "Cannot extract the embedded font 'FAFWQV+--unknown-2--'. Some characters may not display or print correctly." (the 'quoted' text changes each time). When opening in Preview, no error message appears, though the fole is still lacking punctuation etc.
Here is a link to one problematic pdf:http://niis.cass.cn/upload/2012/12/d20121201200145301.pdf
NB: the file is in Mandarin, however I can successfully open/edit/annotate/sync other pdfs using Mandarin font so I'm not sure if the language is related to the problem.
I would be extremely grateful for some help with this please!
Thanks!

Yes, it opens correctly in Adobe for iPad and in Chrome/Safari browsers on my mac. However, as soon as I open the file in Notability I lose the punctuation data.
You need to ask the people responsible for Notability.

  • Fonts not displaying properly in PDFs in Preview

    When I open a PDF in Preview, fonts are either substituted, or the text doesn't display at all.
    PDFs display properly in Adobe Acrobat, however.
    I've tried deleting Preview's preferences, to no avail. Any clues?

    This is a constant problem for us too (on our new Leopard only machines), any program that uses the OS to display PDFs will keep dropping type.
    This means the finder, preview, keynote and mail applications. Our placed PDFs in keynote slides don't show type. In finder windows, the type in pdfs (the icon) is sporadic at best, in mail and entourage the type on pdfs in email is also sporadic. Preview itself is completely hot or miss. But open the same pdf in acrobat and viola, perfect.
    Clearing the font caches and restarting is only a temporary fix.
    This is an inexcusable bug that makes doing professional design work (the sole reason we have macs) extremely difficult. I wish we had not upgraded any of our computers.

  • Trouble Viewing PDFs in Preview

    Hey all,
    I am having trouble viewing PDFs in Preview 4.0 on my MacBook Pro, running Leopard (10.5.1). I can Quick Look the documents from my desktop (or any other folder) fine. However, when I double-click the document to open it in Preview, i get nothing. Preview opens, but does not display the document, or anything for that matter. I even tried to open PDFs from the Preview menu, but to no avail.
    I just upgraded the internal hard drive, but everything else seems to be working fine, and this seems like a weird issue to be caused by a laptop upgrade.
    Any ideas? I tried Disk Utility, but still nothing.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Have you tried deleting Preview's pref file? It should be located as a ".plist" file under preferences in your library folder.
    Find the file "com.apple.Preview.plist" and move it to the trash for the time being. Run Preview again and see if that'll help. If this fixes it you can safely delete the .plist file that's in the trash.
    Good luck.

  • Adobe PDF Portfolio - Preview Mode Displaying Incorrect Pages

    I have created a PDF portfolio using the “Grid” template in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. The Portfolio contains three pdf files. I am getting the following problem when I open the pdf Portfolio in Adobe Reader X and XI and Adobe Acrobat Pro XI.
    Open the PDF portfolio
    Click on pdf3
    Preview mode displays the correct document and pages.
    Close the preview of pdf3
    Click on pdf2
    Preview mode displays pages from pdf3,not pdf2 (see screenshot below).
    Some observations:
    If pdf1 has two pages, and pdf2 has ten pages, pdf2’s preview contains pdf 1 (pages 1-2)  and then pdf2 (pages 3-10).  
    If I continue to open pdfs the preview contains pages from all the pdfs I have opened in the portfolio (this depends on how many pages the document I am currently previewing has). It is not just caching the last pdf opened. 
    Preview mode always displays the correct NUMBER of pages (i.e., if there are ten pages in a pdf, there will be ten pages in the preview. They will just be the wrong pages).
    Turning off local page cache (preferences > page display) does not fix the problem.
    Adobe Reader is up-to-date and Flash is up-to-date. I have replicated the problem on different computers, and in Adobe Reader X and XI, and Pro XI. I have also created muliple pdf portfolios from scratch to confirm the pdf portfolio itself wasn't corrupt.
    Does anyone have an idea what is happening? Users are getting very confused when their preview shows them a completely different document.
    Thanks for any help

    We have the same problem. Everything's up to date. Adobe needs to address this issue!! The portfolio feature is a great idea, but this glitch basically ruins it. If you come by this page with the same problem, make sure you leave a reply. Maybe Adobe will actually pay attention if there are enough complaints.

  • Annotated PDF from Preview will not display annotations in iPad mail

    I have an Annotated PDF from Preview will not display annotations in iPad mail, yet, it will display them on my Macbook Air. I confirmed this with another iPad user. Same results. Any ideas.

    I had the same issue. iAnnotate PDF will display your annotations made in preview and allow you to annotate on the iPad. It is a great app, I and quite happy with it.

  • PDF print preview not coming as it contains chinese character

    hi
    when i see the print preview of the Delivery note ( in scripts ) normally, the chinese characters appears. but when i want to check with pdf print preview nothing is coming.
    i am using convert_otf func. module.
    is it because of function module or because of adobe acrobat?
    also when i try to print the ordinary print preview - output is coming as ####.
    My advance thanks for your replies.
    Regards,
    Sakthi Sri.

    Hi Sandra Rossi,
    In PDF i could not able to get the output. So discussed with TL and we made the chinese characters in .tiff and uploaded through se78 and now it is coming in ordinary print preview.
    but this is only temporary solution.
    Anyhow thanks for help given by experts.

  • Kernel panic when viewing PDFs in Preview

    Hello. I have recently been digitizing documents to my Macbook Pro. When I try to open the resulting PDFs, my Macbook has a kernel panic and restarts.
    When I open the PDF, Preview has trouble displaying it properly. It looks corrupted. Zooming out seems to corrupt the image more, until the laptop hangs and restarts. I tried to open a PDF in a different app (Skim) and the same issue occurred.
    Thanks for any help solving this.

    The panics are probably caused either by a bug in OS X or by a hardware fault, but you should rule out "VirtualBox" as a suspect by uninstalling it completely.
    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
    Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

  • Converting an InDesign document from English into Mandarin (Chinese)

    Using a Mac OS X Version 10.7.5. InDesign CS 5.5
    A 4 page layout in English needs translating to Mandarin (Chinese). I have been provided the copy in Mandarin in a Word document.
    Most of the Word doc looks fine other than a few characters show as rectangles.
    I then asked the client to copy and paste each of the four pages into an email, all of the characters showed were in Mandarin.
    I then copied and pasted from the email into the InDesign document only to find every character came up as a squares encased in a pink line.
    I have reset the settings on the Mac in System Prefs and changed to Chinese (as there's no setting for Mandarin), it has made no difference what so ever.
    Apple have advised InDesign has trouble with Asian fonts esp. double bite fonts.
    I do not have the seriel number for InDesign on me and therefore Adobe will not assist in this matter.
    Can anyone help please?

    Apparently the font applied to the text in InDesign does not contain Chinese characters. Select one that does.

    That merely changes the interface, doesn't it? Your documents would not change -- all of your e-mails, for example, are still in English, right?

    Don't worry about that, Apple doesn't know anything about fonts, advanced typesetting, PDFs, color management ...

  • Not able to Display Barcode in PDF

    Hi Gurus
    I created a BIP report where in I am displaying a barcode in place of PO number. I selected 3 0f 9 barcode. I have a sample output and trying to view the preview in PDF. It is not displaying barcode in PDF format. How ever it is displaying the barcode in rtf, explorer etc. Please help me in solving this. Am I missing any setup after installing Font and BI Publisher desktop..
    Thanks
    Ahmed

    Hi Ahmed,
    Are you able to see the bar-code in pdf output in rtf layout (not thru concurrent request submission)?
    Please check the following steps and see if you have missed one of these set-ups in XML Publisher administrator:
    XML Publisher Administrator-->Administration
    Font File--->Give font file name and Browse the bar code (3 of 9 in your case)--->Apply
    Font Mapping-->Mapping Name--->Mapping Code
    Type--->FO to PDF--->Apply
    Open Tab Create Font Maping
    Font Family: Code39-Digits(This name should be exactly the font name which comes in word)
    Style: Normal
    Weight: Normal
    Target Font Type: Truetype
    Continue
    Font : font file name
    Apply
    Go to Template Tab
    Query for your template
    Open Edit Configuration
    Click on FO Processing
    In Font Mapping set :associate your file
    Please let me know if you are still unable to view the barcode.
    Rgds,

  • Reader X does not display drawing in PDF generated with LaTeX

    I have a quite large PDF generated by pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.11 which contains also XY-pic drawings rendered with Xy-pic version 3.8.2, PDF driver v.1.4.
    One drawing does not display correctly in Adobe Reader X. Neither on Windows, neither on Mac. It does display correctly with following programs:
    Preview on Mac OS X 10.5 and 10.6
    Adobe Reader 9.x
    Skim (skim-app.sf.net).
    When I open this document with Adobe Reader X I get following error message when I hit page 58:
    "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem".
    Where does one report rendering problems?

  • Showing text in PDF in Preview

    Hello,
    I’m currently working with an application that at certain points generates pdf’s to show reports. It works fine on windows, but when I try to open them in the preview on the Mac OS X Mavericks, it shows an empty document. I can open it, select the lines and when I copy/paste to notepad I see the text, but the pdf file itself is empty. I figured it would be because of the fonts that are not recognized, so my question is: how are fonts differently used by preview as opposed to Windows and can someone here give me advice on generating the pdf in such a way that the text is visible on a mac without embedding all the fonts in the pdf. The fonts used are the standards, so Times New Roman, Arial, Arial Black and verdana for instance.
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for your suggestions.
    The PDF works fine when opening in Acrobat Reader, both before and after watching it being empty in preview. When I’ve opened the PDF in preview it shows blank, but I can select the lines which hold the text it should have (and during selection it shows the lines, but not the text on those lines; could be compared to have a lot of spaces in the document). When I then copy the selection and go into ‘notes’ and paste there, the text that was supposed to show is pasted into it without trouble. In the inspector the file size of 53KB is given.

  • Can't search for words anymore after saving PDFs in Preview

    Hi everyone,
    I would love to use Preview for my day-to-day use of previewing PDFs + highlighting + setting annotations. However, once I have saved the pdf with Preview I can not search for words anymore. If I search for one letter only, I would get cryptic hits like "7;%! 2%8%P%8!".
    I am not sure, but I guess when preview saves the pdf using a Quartz PDF context, something happens with the index, or the underlying the font structuring.
    Does anyone have had experience with these kinds of troubles?
    Thanks in advance,
    Heinrich

    Hi, thanks for answering quickly, and the heads up on that other thread.
    It undoubtedly has to do with the annotations or mark ups (the last, in my case).
    In the linked-to thread they end by suggesting that it's because it's has "commenting not allowed" when you see it
    using Adobe Reader, File > Properties > Security says Commenting: Not Allowed.
    However, some documents with "commenting not allowed set in Adobe Reader I can highlight or annotate fine, without it messing up after saving.
    Besides, any document I save as pdf even from Word, will say commenting not allowed in Adobe Reader. So if even my own documents are not highlight- or annotate-able without garbling the text, what documents would these functions be for, then?
    I think what somebody mentioned in the other thread about character encodings hold some truth, I see it in documents in Danish with æ ø and å (however, not all!), but not in English-only docs (yet. Have any of you?).
    Thanks in advance,
    - Alexander
