You don't need Acrobat for this at all.
If you select "Print..." there is a "PDF..." button in the lower left corner of the dialog. Click the button and select "Save as PDF..." or you can do "Open in Preview..." and save from there.
OS X has had the ability to generate PDFs since the 10.0 days. The whole graphics infrastructure is based on PDFs. You have no need whatsoever for Acrobat on the machine to do this.

Unable to convert .doc to PDF after Leo install

What am I missing? I recently installed Leopard on four machines, two at home and two at school. In all cases I am not able to write a PDF from a Word doc, something that I have to do from time to time. There is a message that says my PDF printer is not present... I've tried to get my home machine to recognize the PDF printer in my printer window and I get the 52 week beachball. I have tried to find this topic on several sites but I couldn't be the only one experiencing this bump in the road...on all four computers...Word version is from Office 2004, four computers are a G5 tower, Macbook, two Intel MacMinis... It is probably too simple, but I can't see it...

Error in converting *.doc to *.pdf

Running winXP home sp2, adobe pro 7.1.0
This problem has started suddenly.
When converting *.doc to *.pdf a window titled AcroDist.exe-Application Error comes up:
"0x00441ae2" referenced memory at "0x0218ebbc". The memory could not be "read".
Acrobat stops and can only be stopped from the Task Manager. Try to print something in *.pdf -- same thing happens.
Anyone, any suggestions? I would be thankful.

Gloria Mc,
This occurs with all .doc, Excel, .rtf, .txt (even when trying to print .pdf from a txt software like notepad. It does not occur with picture format files like .jpg or .tiff. I also can combine .pdf files.
As far as JR's question, if I generate a .prn file and drop it in AcroDist (Distiller), it tries to open Distiller and the same error message comes up.
All other functions of AA7 seem to work, only when trying to convert document files to .pdf is there a problem.
If I try to bring up Distiller by itself (no file), the same error occurs.
I'm still willing to try any suggestions. Thanks for your interest.

Is it possible to convert .doc to pdf ?

Hi..
I am very new to Livecycle Workflow...! I just want to know whether it is possible to convert .doc to pdf ?
Just by googling i came to know that CreatePDF2 Service will do this Conversion ! But it throws me an Exception like "Conversion Exception :" Cannot connect to Adobe Service "...!
Can u guys pls help me out to slove the problem ?
Thanks & Regards
Karthik.

you don't know the format of a word doc? well, that's good for you because it's a nightmare.
- check POI (http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/index.html) to see if you can load-up the .doc then generate the .pdf with iText
- personally i use the Open Office Bean to open the .doc, i save it in .sxw (OO format which is a jar of different XML files), then i use XSLT to transform content.xml in .fo then use FOP to build the PDF. sounds crazy but works fine (only on a machine with graphic support - not via Telnet, etc...)

How to archive billing docs in PDF format on the application server?

Hi,
I want to archive billing docs in PDF format on the application server.
Formerly on our SAP system, Archivelink was set up to archive these documents to an HTTP content server. Since we no longer have this server, I want to adapt it to simply output the PDFs to a filesystem on the application server. I have tried to reconfigure the content repository (tcode OAC0) without success.
Am I on the right track?
If so, which document area, storage type, etc should I use?

Hi Slath,
from DMS point of view you may use the storage category 'DMS_C1_ST' and the content repository 'DMS_C1' as a kind of template. The document area for DMS storage categories has to be maintained as 'DMS'.
Best regards,
Christoph

Acrobat has NEVER been free. Reader (formerly called "Acrobat Reader") has always been free, but the Creation/Editing software has always had a price tag.

Use function module 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY' to convert from XString to a Binary table. Just like this:
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY'
    EXPORTING
      buffer          = lv_xstring_pdf
      append_to_table = ' '
    TABLES
      binary_tab      = lt_doc_content.
To send the email in an OO way you should user class CA_SEND_REQUEST_BCS. Take a look to program BCS_EXAMPLE_6 or any of the test programs in package SBCOMS.

IBook converting periods on PDF formatted pages into question marks

Can someone tell me why iBook is converting periods on PDF formatted pages into question marks in the search function?

You might try different apps for producing the pdf and see if there is any difference.

Trying to attach saved doc to email but it shows as greyed out and won't open. If I convert same doc to pdf format it attaches OK. What am I doing wrong?

I'm new Mac user and can't work out why a saved pages doc won't attach to an email. I can see it in Finder and open it in Pages but when I try to attach it shows up in grey and won't open. If I then convert the same doc to pdf it's OK. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your answer. You guess right. I have my personal mail in Apple Mail program but my business account is via Google Apps for work so operates like a gmail account and that's the one I need for attachments. The Pages version I have is 5.2(1860). It would be good to fix if I can without having to make the extra step of pdf conversion. I purchased the computer a week ago and it's OSX 10.9.5 which I guess is the latest version. Should I upgrade to Yosemite? Perhaps that has a later version of Pages? Thanks again. Barbara

Hi
Even if i use a new clean blank rtf doc as the template, it still doesnt write out a file.
When i look in the log directory at the .out files produced, they look right. If i open the .out file with Adobe Reader 9.1, the doc looks exactly as it should. It just doesn't write the file to the destination folder specified.
It cannot be permissions as it will write out RTF/excel files to the same directory with no problems. The report is using a bursting definition but the problem cant be that because it bursts the data correctly, as shown if i specify rtf output in the bursting definition/as shown by the .out files when i specify pdf as the output in the bursting definition. Also, i get the same result even if i schedule any other report that does not use a bursting definition.
I do get an error sometimes when i try to open pdf reports : Cannot use Adobe Reader to view PDF in your web browser. I feel somehow that this may be related and that if i fix this, i could be sorted, but im not even sure im on the right track here.
Im really really REALLY at wits' end here, ive been trying to solve for weeks, but just cant figure it out. Any further ideas would be most welcome, thanks.

Error converting DOC to PDF, corrupt table

Hello,
Using XP, MS Word 2003, Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro.
Trying to convert a 15MB doc to pdf. After 14 minutes, I get a MS Word error, "This error message may be the result of a corrupt table in the current document.You can recover the contents..." The steps for recovery involves "open & repair", which is an option that I can't find (maybe MS Word 2007?)
If I take the original doc & compress the photos to reduce the file size to about 11MB, then the PDF is ok. I can also split up the doc into two documents. Each part converts ok, then I can combine them. Both options works, but both are time consuming. (So I'm not buying the "corrupt table" error.)
I have other doc's that convert ok. One is 29MB and converts in 2 minutes. The difference that I can note is that the 15MB doc uses primary nothing but text boxes for the entire doc. Text & photos are inserted into each text box. A dozen of these are smaller than 11MB & will convert, but very slowly. Over that size & I get the above error.
I can't change Word Doc format. (customer's requirements)
Any help or suggestions are appreciated!
Thanks

There has been a change with AA9 that does the create PDF option a bit differently than before. I am not sure of the details, but if you are assuming the same process as I will describe you will at least have an idea of what is happening. In prior versions of Acrobat, there are basically 2 conversion processes. The right click in explorer to convert and opening the file in Acrobat both go back to the create PDF process in WORD, so let me just describe the WORD process. When you print to the Adobe PDF printer, then you are simply doing a conversion (or print) just like you would to paper. Excluding the printer metric issues with WORD (2007 turns these off by default), you should get a replica of the WORD file in appearance. Choices include down sampling the graphics and embedding the fonts, both of which are recommended. These are part of the printer properties.
The end result of the print is effectively an electronic paper version of your original file. It is not recommended for editing (except for form fields and such), in just the same way it is preferred to not use whiteout on a typed paper version. The process of creating this print file is a two step process where a PS file is created (can be very memory intensive) and then the PS file is put through Distiller in the background to create the PDF (these require AcroTray to be active to do this automatically).
PDF Maker (create PDF) adds several features to the file, but it is only available in selected applications like MS OFFICE. These features are added by including PDF Marks in the PS file created in the print process. You can include bookmarks, links, and tags for accessibility (tags tend to really bloat the file big time). The items to be included are in the preferences of PDF Maker in the application. It is also a good idea to use the Standard job settings as a minimum, but I typically recommend print or press options. I use a job settings file provided by a publisher that is optimize for journal publication.
The fact that PDF Maker adds all the extra bits is likely why you are having problems. You can try turning all the added features off and then go back and add only the ones you need. That may help your situation. Keep in mind that graphics will be expanded (are not compressed) when sent to the PS file -- causing a huge file in some cases. The temporary storage is limited by your TEMP folder and not by the size of your hard disk and that is the route of the problem for large files.
As I said, PDF Maker has apparently changed a bit for AA9, but the idea is likely similar.
