Unable to save Infoview pdf reports in Windows Vista

Good morning,
My coworker needs to be able to save Infoview pdf reports from her Windows Vista PC, but she is presently unable to. She was able to save the reports fine previously from the Windows XP PC she used to have.
Following are the steps taken to arrive at the problem:
1) On a Windows Vista PC, browse to: https://wyinf.hostams.com/InfoViewApp/logon.jsp
2) Logon with appropriate credentials.
3) Navigate to: All > Public Folders > WY WOLFS Reports > Double-click on one of the listed Adobe Acrobat .pdf reports.
4) Now the pdf report is open within the web browser, and "BUSINESSOBJECTS INFOVIEW" is the title above the pdf report.
5) Click on the "Save" button - Nothing happens or appears. (After clicking on the save button, a window should launch that lets you save the pdf file to a desired location. This works fine on Windows XP)
If any of you know of any workarounds to this problem or any settings I could adjust to fix this, please let me know.
Thanks for any help,
Tully

Hi Raveesh

Preflight keeps saying "Unable to save the PDF File after post processing"

I'm at a loss how to overcome this. Spent almost a whole day, together with another person, trying to fix it with no success!
I use Adobe pro CC on a PC
I usually receive pdf files from this one client who edits and formats a book in Mac Pages. Up until a few days ago I had no problems converting the client's pdfs into pdf/x3, but the last three versions of the latest file have stumped me.
Just to test, I first just tried to convert the file (33MB), unchanged, to pdf/x3 using the save as other option - message reads "the document has been saved, however, it could not be converted according to the selected standard profile: convert to PDF/X. Please use preflight with the profile "Convert to PDF/X" in order to identify those properties of the document which prevent it from being compliant to this profile"
if I then choose under Profiles - convert to PDF/X3 - it says no problems found, and appears to have saved the file. If I try to save again as a pdf/x3, just to make sure, it then tells me it's not pdf/x3 compliant
OK - so then I go back to preflight - and choose the standards function - then pdf/x3, then continue with the default colour profile. About halfway through the conversion, at the point of saving the file, I get the message "unable to save the pdf file after post processing"
So far I've had no luck figuring out what this is.
I then choose the option of "verify compliance of ppdf/x3" - message reads "pdf/x3 version key (GTS_PDFXVersion) missing", and "Trapped key not true or false"
Help!! How can I be sure the file converted / or not?

Yes I was/am aware of Preflight's inability to play nicely over cloud technologies in certain cases, especially wrt Standards technologies, this will be partially addressed in an upcoming version of Preflight without saying too much. But the same thing could theoretically have happened if the file was also located on another local network client or server. Leaving aside the argument that this may violate the Acrobat User Agreement - since purchasing the software, the user agrees to employ its functionality on a single host system and precludes host-client-based scenarios - this simply is not a supported use, meaning the user may not have expectations that it will work at all, if the applications requirements are not observed. There do exist server-solutions for Preflight files within networks, but Acrobat and by extension Acrobat Preflight is not one of those solutions, and (still) belongs in the single host-based desktop environment.
However most (99.9%) functions within Acrobat <-> acrobat.com file exchange are supported, file syncing across multiple devices will soon be supported, but Standards compliance is still admittedly a problem at this point. Some testing has been done using 3rd party cloud technologies starting with enterprise-based solutions, such as Office 365, and this will continue to ramp up to include other 3rd party products.
As for the second point, Preflight will usually change the PDF version to be complaint, are you saying that it was unable to do so in this case? It seems that this error should have popped up during the normal Preflight conversion attempt. Personally I think solving a workflow problem using the print path is a little bit of a heavy-handed approach, but if helped and the results are acceptable, then that is good. Since that path is non-existent on a Mac, as one needs to Save as Adobe PDF from the Print dialog's PDF drop-down menu, I am assuming your workflow involved file creation on a Mac, then further processing on Windows using the PDF printer. I am wondering if a simple resave/Save As... to PDF with overwrite on a Mac, or Preflighting the file using a PDF version compatibility profile before the PDF/X conversion would have helped. Since there are such a multitude of methods that a PDF can be created, there are also many ways within Acrobat that a user can shape the file to be compatible with the expected workflow, ie, 'many ways to skin a cat', without being morbid.

I'm in Final Draft (screenwriting prgram) and hit Save as PDF and a window opens stating that the printer name is invalid - what am I doing wrong?

While installing Adobe Acrobat 8 on Windows 7 Professional why do I get the message "Adobe pdf.dll on windows Vista CD-ROM is needed.

While installing Adobe Acrobat 8 on Windows 7 Professional, why do I get the messaage "Adobe pdf.dll on Windows Vista CD-ROM is needed"?

Because your software is far too old for Windows 7.

Trying to install Acrobate 8 Standard on PC with Windows 7, 64 bit. During the installation I was asked to provide "File Adobe PDF.dll for Windows Vista. How can I obtain the required file?

Nothing in the Acrobat 8.x product family is compatible with Windows 7 (or any contemporary OS).
The Acrobat 8.x product family passed into End of Support way back -- (November 2011).
The current release of Acrobat (XI) is compatible in Windows 7.

Unable to save a PDF created from a secure webpage in Acrobat X

Hi,
Our Acrobat X standard won't 'save' or 'save as' PDFs created from a password secured website. Same symptom on two machines here. Other PDFs work fine.
The workflow we're using is opening acrobat, selecting create pdf from website, and then specifying a website with an https address and entering a username and password to access the site. This generates a pdf which looks great, all the links work etc... but when you click 'save as,' absolutely nothing happens. You're left just looking at your PDF with no save window or anything opening.
This gets done every day in the office here. I suspect the latest update may have caused the issue?

Hi Bill@VT,
Thanks for your reply!
I checked document properties and security is off. I've also unticked "Enhanced Security" under Security (Enhanced) in the Edit > Preferences menu.
This issue is only affecting our acrobat 10 and acrobat 11 users. I still have a couple acrobat 9 users here and they're unaffected.
The Save As button is not greyed out -- it's available but clicking on it just closes the file menu and does not open the save as dialog box.

Safari Mail/Save as PDF reporting "Error while printing"

It's only just started doing this today, after I installed the updates that came with Mavericks.
I have been using this feature for 5 years to email receipts to clients... Please tell me that this isn't an ongoing problem!
I hit command-P to print, then select PDF > Mail PDF. Worked absolutely fine before. Don't know what has happened to cause it to behave differently.
Thank you!
Rory

I could print/save as .pdf until I did my latest software upgrade. Now I get "error while printing", and have been unable to find a solution. this is quite a problem for me, because I do a lot of research on the Web and have saved my results for years in pdf. Have you found a solution?
Best regards,

Unable to "save as pdf" using Excel

Hi,
This problem concerns SharePoint 2010
We have an issue with "save as PDF" option to the library on one particular site, it appears to work but the .PDF file never appears in the library.
We can save as PDF to the desktop then upload to the library.
Word will save as PDF to the same library without issue.
Would very much appreciate any ideas you might have or help you can give,
Thanks,

If you are able to save as PDF from Word, but not from Excel, it could be a bug in Excel.
Have you checked to see if there are any Excel updates/patches that you do NOT have installed? This kind of thing is usually fixed through a patch.
I trust that answers your question...
Thanks

Why am I unable to save unsecured PDFs

I have Acrobat 9 on a new Vista PC. All of a sudden I am having difficulty saving downloaded PDF documents, even tho they are not secured (i.e. Properties/Security shows everything Allowed including copying). Am even in email correspondence with one of the PDF's publishers who can't reproduce my problem - i.e. he also thinks that I should be able to save a download of his PDF document !
Neither clicking the save icon in the Acrobat toolbar nor picking File/Save As in the Explorer toolbar brings up the usual save dialogue box.
The strange thing is that the difficulty seems to arise on only some sites/downloads, not all.
Does anyone have any technical insights into this issue? Anything to do with Vista security or McAfee, perhaps?
With thanks for any assistance!!

Hi David,
The suggestion you made did the trick. Can download web pdfs again.
Looking forward to more solutions.

Hi Louis,

I found a decent guy at Adobe who is looking into the matter for me, in
case there are other lurking issues. Meanwhile he suggested an Adobe Acrobat
9.1 workaround that does seem to solve the problem in the short term. Try it
- if it's available in Reader - and good luck!

I'm sorry to hear you are still having problems with Acrobat. I am going to
run a couple of tests with a Vista image here to see if I get the same
issue.

In the mean time, in Acrobat, you would probably benefit from not
displaying the PDF in browser:
menu Edit > Preferences : Internet : uncheck "Display PDF in browser" This
should in theory allow you to save the PDF using Acrobat's own menus.

Another option is to right click a link that points to a PDF and use Save

XL Reporter with Windows Vista Basic and Excel 2007

Hi there,
I am facing a problem with my SAP Business One edition. I am using XL Reporter with my Windows XP Professional Edition and Microsoft Office 2003 and/or 2007, and it works perfectly, but when i try to connect my laptop, loaded with Windows Vista Basic edition and Microsoft Office 2007, it does not support.
When i try to add IXXLReporter.dll in Excel 07, it does not work, it neither shows me any error or any confirmation message. When i try to run XL Reporter from SAP, it starts process and hangs.
Can anybody tell me perfectly that whether SAP B1 is compatible with Vista Home Edition or not ...???
If it works, what changes i have to make in my SAP or Vista or Excel, please inform me soon. . .

Error opening PDF file, using Windows Vista

When I first purchased my new pc, regrettably, I was given Windows Vista. There have been a lot of problems. Of late, Adobe Reader gives me an error message when I try to open a downloaded file. I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader but with no success. Could this be a Vista security issue? I can download and read the file on my work computer which used Windows XP. Also, this problem getting an error message opening and reading a file just recently occurred. I haven't made any changes to my system except automatic program updates. Can you help me?

I stumbled on a solution: Download the PDF file and instead of saying yes to open the file (because you know you'll get the error message), simply go to where you saved the file (i.e. AOL downloads) and open it there. I have no idea why I suddenly cannot open PDF files but at least I found a way to still get my information. Hope this helps.

TS1538 Unable to see iPod Touch 2G in Windows Vista Unless User is Admin

Problem: Newly acquired iPod Touch 2G cannot be recognized as a device on a Vista 64-bit system unless the user is logged in as an admin. Then it is recognized correctly and able to work in iTunes. Obviously, having the user logged in as an admin defeats the purpose of administrative tools. We've tried every article recommendation in the knowledgebase, including a complete uninstall/reinstall of iTunes as the last step. We did this while she was logged in as an admin to make it easier, and sure enough, everything worked perfectly. Now she is logged in under her normal profile but the iPod is not recognized. What else is recommended? We can't have her logged in as an admin all the time just to sync up her iPod. Help!

Have you tried everything here:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
including:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
Tried another cable
Tried another computerto help determine if yo have an iPod or computer problem.
