Unable to convert post script file

keep getting the above message, still unable to print...help!

Hi welshgold,
You'll need to provide some additional information:
    - Adobe product and version number
    - Operating system and version number
    - The full text of any error message(s)
    - What you were doing when the problem occurred
    - Screenshots of the problem
    - Computer hardware, such as CPU; GPU; amount of RAM; etc.
You can though try to remove your printer and re-install or you can try to reset your printer subsystem (this will remove every printer from your computer system).

Unable to create post script file in framemaker.

I installed TCS 4.0 licensed suite. Due to some reason I need to delete Adobe PDF from Devices and Printers. Since then I am unable to create post script file using framemaker. I have tried uninstalling and installing TCS 4.0 again, but all in vain. What should I do now?

If you delete critical parts of Acrobat there will be problems. Try doing a REPAIR of Acrobat Pro (from the Programs Control Panel), maybe it can undo the damage.

Hi @itsalex,
What type of bar code are you printing, and from what program? Just a thought, what if you print the barcode as an image, if you are not already? Try File>Print> Advanced> Print as Image> print.
If the issue persists, let's reset the printing system and repair the disk permissions; doing so may resolve the issue.
Reset Printing System
Click the Apple icon ( ), and then click System Preferences.
In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.
Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
Click OK to confirm the reset.
Type the correct Name and Password.
Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol.
Repair Disk Permissions
On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
Once the repair is complete, restart the computer and add the printer back.
When you add the printer, please ensure you are using the HP driver.
Select Add other Printer or Scanner
Select the printer you are adding and next to 'Use' you can select the printer drive. In the screenshot below, you will see Airprint is auto selected, you can change it to the HP driver though.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Talk to you later alligator

Converting Back to Original PDF Using Post Script File

Is there any way to convert back to an original PDF using a post srcipt file that was created from that original PDF? Allow me to fully explain my situation:
I converted multiple pdf's that I created into a post script file. I then utilized Adobe Distiller to convert them into a pdf that could be used for better printing and better usability by the end user. Unfortunately, when Distiller did this conversion, it replaced my original pdf with the new one. By the time I realized what was happening, all files had been replaced.
I still have the post script file that was created from the original PDF file; is there any way possible using this post script file that it can be somehow converted back to the original PDF file? There are some edits that I need to do on the original PDF. The pdf that Distiller creates doesn't allow for anymore edits. My goal is to be able to make my edits without having to re-create 37 pages of documents.
The software versions I'm using are as follows: Adobe Acrobat X Version 10.1.4, Adobe Distiller Version 10.1.438.
If anyone has any ideas, please let me know!

Hello, thank you for responding.
Yes the url links start with http:
For example when I type in
http://canberracontemporaryartspace.wordpress.com/2013/07/06/staying-out-of-trouble/
in the word document and click on it, the link works; but when I save it as a pdf it says "not found"
And then when I type in

in the word document and click on it, the link works; but when I save it as a pdf it says "page not found"

How to Print Post Script Files

Hi All,
I am trying to make a utility software in foxpro that could print post script file on:-
1) Post script printer
2) Non Post Script printer
Operating System Windows 95 & above
Help is requested from all the community members

Harsh

PostScript printer - send it to the printer port e.g. LPT1: with a simple copy.
Non-PostScript printer - you'll need to buy a PostScript RIP, or perhaps use Acrobat Distiller to convert the PostScript to PDF, then print the PDF with Acrobat's API - see the Acrobat SDK. (This is not possible with the free Reader).

I am getting some errors while distilling the post script file.

@Jack – you were using a joboptions file by Distiller to convert a PostScript file to a PDF/X-1a.
What you get is no error message, just a report, that everything went ok. And in this case I cannot see any advantage using PDF Export for printing to PostScript/distilling to PDF. Ok, maybe one, CS5 and above would export in a background process.
To prevent InDesign flattening transparency, you could use PDF/X-4 as your export setting. You cannot use writing to PostScript for that task.
Check including tags for tagged export to prevent misalignment of text because of a strange bug with PDF Export when you are using 9pt text on 12pt leading or text with a ratio of 9/12 for point size and leading in multicolumn text frames.

Reading post script files

Does Adobe offer a program that reads post script files?

Adobe Acrobat can convert Postscript to PDF and display the PDF.

Saving PDF files as Post Script files using Adobe Professional

I have a 2 Page PDf document that mainly has Text on each page. Both the Pages have a 2D Data Matrix Barcode also.
I opened the PDF file in Adobe Professional and saved the file as Post Script file.
Post Script file gets saved successfully. When I open the Post script file - It has almost 40,000 line for a 2 page post scipt file.
It has lot of Hex data that looks so huge in the file. ( I thought only Images get converted to Hex format).
Is there a setting or something I am missing that I have this huge Post script file for a 2 page text file PDF

Your barcode may be a high resolution graphic. A lot of junk (hex) is what you would see in such a case with PS. How it looks to you may depend on what application you are using to view the PS file. If you open it in a code or text editor you might get a better idea of what is there. I don't look at PS files much and agree with graffiti's question of why do you want to?

Unable to convert a postscript file on c3180

If I understand what it is you want, open the PDF file in Preview and from the File Menu select Export as PDF. In the file selector there's a button labeled Show Details. Click it. Select encrypt, enter a password, and save using a different name. The new document will show a lock indicated it is passworded. Delete the original version.

I have a Nikon D600 and D800 and I shoot everything in Raw. I use Photoshop Elements 9 for processing but I have been unable to convert any RAW files to open in PSE. Says unable to parse the file. What does this mean and how do I fix it?

Since pse 9 can only use up to camera raw 6.5 and the d600 needs at least 7.3 and the d800 needs at least 6.7, you can use the
8.6 adobe dng converter to convert those files to dng copies, which then pse 9 should open.

I am unable to convert a pdf file to word as I get the error message indicates it contains XFA forms

I am unable to convert a pdf file to word as I get the error message that pdf files containing XFA forms cannot be saved to the specified format.

Hi curtlea,
XFA forms are not regular PDF's but XML files in a PDF shell.
To create a word file from those files, you first have to flatten the XFA forms by printing as PDF with the Adobe PDF Printer.
Then you can save using ExportPDF the created static PDF as Word document.
