Trying To Make PDF Presentation But End Up With A Normal Document?

I am trying to make a .pdf presentation with Photoshop CS3.
I follow all the instructions, select the time of each slide and the transition, but when I click on save I get a window asking me how I want to save the files and I end up with a normal .pdf document where I can view each picture manually or use the slideshow setting but no transitions appear.
Any ideas from this brief account of my actions, what I might be doing wrong?

Thank you for the link Laurentiu. At about the same time as you posted it I discovered that if I used Adobe Reader I could get the slideshow presentation to work, at least partially.
I had been using Preview and of course it just displayed it as a .pdf document.
However, my problem is not completely solved.
When PS finished making the presentation I got a warning message that the preset used was not suitable for presentations and transitions between pages would not show.
Strangely, the transitions do display, but my selection of looping the slideshow does not work.
I wonder why and which preset should I use?

Just bought Photoshop Elements 13...I'm trying to make a slideshow but can't figure out how to alter duration time that the slide is on the screen. They presently move from one to another way too quickly...also need a different pan and zoom option. Where are all the options I had in PS10? Also...Can I burn this to a DVD?

The changes have brought improvements but also drawbacks compared with the old slideshow editor.
The templates are now fairly fixed but I find the “Classic Dark” gives reasonable results with some panning and you can click the audio button and browse you PC for any track. Unfortunately there are only three speed choices linked to the music track. The improvement for most people is that you can now export to your hard drive at 720p or 1080p and upload to sites like YouTube and Vimeo.

I'm trying to make this work, but can't figure it out. Please help.

I am trying to make a Presentation to email for others to see without a browser, but when I do, it doesn't show. I've downloaded Adobe Flash Player 10.0 r22, I've built the presentation, I've published the presentation and uploaded to my hosting. I have tried everythiing I can think of. It works on my machine; however, when I try to view it out of it's containing folder, it doesn't show anything but the preloader. Can someone please help me?
I can send you an example of a working Presentation along with a Zip file containing my presentation with everything I've built if my explanation isn't quite clear. Please help.
Thank you,

Yes,
I need to remove it from this forum.
Sorry about that,

What do you mean? Are you not able to switch from "All pages" view of the book to a single page view by double-clicking a selected page? Or what is the problem?
Or can you not open the book at all from the source list?

Is Mail still "spinning"? If it's been doing that for a while, I'd kill it, using either Activity Monitor or the OS X application picker. Then relaunch Mail and see what happens.
Two "by the ways":
1) Your system details mention an PPC iMac. Since a non-Intel Mac can't run OS X 10.6, you seem to have another Mac. You might want to consider updating your system details.
2) You seem to have been misled by the poor labeling of the message composition fields on this forum into trying to enter your entire post into the "subject" field. In the future, just enter a summary of your post there and the main text into the field below it.

You first have to subscribe to iTunes Match through iTunes on your computer and have your music library in iTunes uploaded/matched before you can enable it on your iOS devices (see http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/). Without a computer you won't be able to use iTunes Match.

Can i make PDF presentation 'repeat' on Adobe Acrobat X Pro?

Hi!
Im a new here, and i have little problem which i hope you can help me.
So i must do PDF-presentation which repeat after last page. So when the presentation goes last page it must jump first page, and start presentation again. But i cant find where i can do that trick. So could anyone here help me with that problem? Im using Adobe Acrobat X Pro software. So how i can make presentation repeat, or need i some other software?
I have tried make Action Wizard new action on "document processing" tab and there "set open options" that makes presentation "single page continous", but that dont make presentation to repeat. So i do something wrong, or that is wrong place where i try do that.
So im little bit stuck with that, and need advices.
Thanks!

You can define a Page Action for the last page in the document, and make it reset to page 0. Right-click a page in the thumbnails panel on the left, choose Properties, then Actions.
To avoid missing the last page and messing about with timing code, the simple fix is to add a blank page to the end of the document, and give it a 'Page Open' action of "Go to a page View" which moves to your first page.

Problems when trying to make pdf from ps using distiller

Hi,
I'm using Adobe Design Standard CS4 and I'm trying to make a PDF from Indesign, using Distiller. I made a ps and when I opened it in Distiller the pages were cut, as if the sizes were smaller than those set in Indesign. But I did modify in jobs the dimensions so that they would be the same as those from Indesign. I thought at first that maybe the ps was badly made, but when opened in Photoshop it displayed the same sizes as those in Indesign. Any suggestions?

Bob's answer will certainly work, and those are usually fine settings, but you may want to know more about the what and why of export settings.
Conversion is handled in the dialog in the output panel under, of all places, the "Color Conversion" field. You have three choices: No conversion (self explanatory, and if you've got everything in the correct space to start with a good choice), and two flavors of "Convert to destination," Preserve Numbers and Preserve Appearance, which have subtle, but major, differences. The target profile is selected in the next field below.
In the case of either one, anything RGB will get converted to CMYK if you pick a CMYK target profile (and vice versa if you pick a RGB profile). The difference is in what happens to objects that are already using the color model, but not the specific profile, of the destination.
When you preserve numbers a CMYK object in ISO coated with values of 25,38,40,10 can be converted to SWOP with the same numbers. You can expect slight shifts in color appearance this way (of course, there are also MANY RGB colors that can't be reproduced using CMYK inks at all, so you'll pretty much always get some shifting in RGB to CMYK conversions).
When you preserve appearance the numbers used to represent the colors are altered so the output looks the same on both devices.
You might think this is superior, but there is a glitch. What happens to solid black (100% K only)? If you've set type in InDesign you probably colored it with the [Black] swatch. If you pick preserve numbers, you type stays 100% K and will continue to overprint, and your pressman will be happy. If you pick preserve appearance, one of two things will happen: If the document working profile is the same as the target profile, there will be no change and everyone is happy. If the profile is different, your simple black type will become a four-color mix that has the same visual appearance (when in perfect register) in the target space, and now it no longer overprints and is separated onto 4 plates, and your pressman is cursing you.
This will happen with anything that is just a single process ink, but generally speaking this isn't an issue for the other three colors if you are printing them anyway. It might be a problem for one-color hairlines or small type, though, so you should at least be aware of the potential.
So, the bottom line is you should assign the correct output profile as the CMYK working space in your document, if you know it in advance. If not, make your best guess and consider re-assigning the working space before exporting to PDF if you guess wrong. Any conversion from one profile to another is going to have some sort of consequences and it's up to you to choose the best answer based on the particular circumstances of your file.

Thumbnails present but not populated with photo's

Help!
Both the Events and Photo thumbnail boxes are all present but they don't include the photo's. When I open events all the photo boxes are visible - but empty. Trying to open a photo results in a "!" indicator. Over 6,000 images at stake, any help appreciated.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The "!" means that the library has lost the file path to the original file. This happens when there has been an interruption to iPhoto while it is writing to it's database file, Library6.iPhoto. Moving, renaming files or folder inside the library package while in the Finder is another way you can get that indication. Try the three fixes below in order as needed:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.
2 - rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: It may take some time to create the new library if you have a lot of photos. Report back on how long it took and how many photos you have in the library so we can give other users an idea of how long it may take.
3 - start over with a new library and import the Originals folder from your original library as follows:
Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
Open the library package like this.
Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library if you have the Finder checkbox unchecked in the Events preference pane.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How to make pdf's searchable for all words for multiple documents?

I scan hundreds of documents every week at work. These documents are mostly field invoices for industrial work. I have been saving them with the most important/most searched information as the file name so I can search that information from anywhere in my computer and easily find it. As the work we are doing and our customers are becoming more complex I am needing to search for documents by keywords that just would not be efficient to include all into the file name. I have tried OCR to no avail. After doing OCR on many many files, I will try to search for a word that is right in front of me and it says zero found. My ideal: to be able to search my computer from my desktop for a keyword (like I can with word or excel dosuments), and have all pdf's containing that keyword to populate. I have been working on this for far too long and am not finding the solution, so before I set out to find a new program instead of Adobe I'm hoping there is something out there I just don't know about yet. I have googled this issue til my fingertips are bruised and it always brings me back to: Use OCR! Not only hasn't it found any pdf using keywords (unless I have that specific document open), half of my files it gives me an error message stating those files can not be rendered OCR. The whole point of what I'm trying to do is to ensure I find EVERY SINGLE document that would have the keyword.
Please help! Thank you!!

So, park the PDFs that hold those scanner output images of text.
Now, using Acrobat Pro create an Action to OCR these PDF files and save.
Having been OCR'd these PDFs can have a Catalog index of the collection (built with Acrobat Pro).
Using the Catalog index you can use advanced search (the includes Boolean search).
Be well...
