Urgent text shifting problem with pdf creation from indesign

I have eps files placed in indesign and when some pages of my document are exported as pdf for press, the text moves slightly, like 1/16" or less, but enough to cause problems. I'm using the original Indesign CS and eps files saved out of Illustrator 10. Yup, old.....I know, but it's what I have to work with right now. Some files are working fine but others are don't and they were all created/saved/exported the same, as far as I can tell. Here's a small sample. All the street name text is shifted down and to the left from the actually street. Occurring with text on path as well as straight text. Any ideas greatly appreciated.

You might also try exporting to .idml form CS5 (see Remove minor corruption by exporting). We've had other reports of similar beahvior when working with legacy files, and exporting to .inx from the original version may work even better.

Resolution problem with pdf presentation from CS4 in Bridge

I have CS4 and am consistently having problems creating multipage pdf files using Bridge; though they are created using 300 dpi files in Photoshop CS4 the resulting multipage pdfs from Bridge are not print quality. I never had a problem with this before Bridge was required to create pdf presentations. The files used to create the presentation in Bridge are either psd or Photoshop pdf at 300 dpi. I am completely self-taught in Photoshop and my skill level is moderate at best, but I am not finding anything to help me so far in searching google and forums. Does anyone have any info to point me in the right direction? thanks-

Have you applied all the updates for photoshop cs4 including this one:

Leopard 10.5.5 update causes problem with PDF creation

Mac Pro 2X Quad-Core Intel Xeon 3 GHz, updated to 10.5.5. using the combo updater.
PDFs created from Illustrator CS3 (13.0.2) using print to Adobe PDF 8.0. Page size is correct, but the image is only half the size. When I boot to a backup system 10.5.4 disk, the same file is created correctly. Good thing I made a backup before updating! Anyone else have this problem?

Hi everyone,
We at Adobe are working to understand the change and work with Apple to find a solution. In the meantime, I've published a KB article here: http://www.adobe.com/go/kb406381
I've tested to 15+ printers so far, and the only ones that showed a problem are the Adobe PDF Printer and an HP 1320, and only when printing from InDesign CS3 or Illustrator CS3.
I would help if you can post more details if
* You have a 10.5.5 printing problem from something other than AI/ID CS3
* You have had success/failures with workarounds in the KB doc
* You have had the problem to a physical printer (include details of the printer)
Thank you!

Printing problem with PDF graphs from preview

Whenever I print PDF files from preview or from safari, some graphs print incorrectly, although they are displayed correctly on the screen. This only happens with black and white figures and either a negative image with the black and white are reversed is printed or the background of the graphic just prints as a black box. Colour elements are unaffected. This doesn't happen when printing the same files using Adobe Reader or Adobe Professional. Any suggestions for tweaking this, or am I going to have to start using the Adobe plugins instead?

Problems with image conversion from InDesign to PDF

My images look posterized when I convert from InDesign to PDF. Any ideas about this?

That'd be in the export settings not in Reader. Ask in the InDesign forum, they'll probably know better.

Big problem with PDF export from CS4

Create a document with facing pages. Then place a rectangle or any other object on the master through the whole spread. Place the text or any other object on the master over the first rectangle on the both pages. Now, when exporting pdf, the text on the left pages is disappeared becaouse it covered by the copy of the rectangle. The variation of the problem is when using any tansparencies, then they become "less transparent" on the left pages because of this strange dublicating.
There is an archive in attachment that contains indd and pdf files with this problem.

Thanks, it works, but bug is still bug. In some cases it's impossible to do this, for example my recent case: it was text with huge outer glow on master pages. Outer glow from right page dublicates to the left and covered left text, and there's no way to move effect to another layer separately. The solution was to detach these texts from masters, but it's also unhandy solution.
It's hard to detect such cases unless it happen with big elements.

Problem with pdf files from ABBYY FineReader 11

I am using htc desire with Android 2.2 with latest update for PDF Viewer.
Recently I scaned book on FineReader 11 with recognition and save it on pdf format with setting to show page pictuire above recognized text. On desktop this file opening normaly, but on PDF Viewer for Android Version 1.00.1045 on my Android device it opening very very slowly and the following pages don't want to open at all. At the same time other pdf files downloaded from Net is opening normaly.

I couldnt find any updates for Bridge CS6. Can anyone help please?
If Adobe wants us to use Bridge for generating pdf's it'd better be working correctly

Problem with .PDF files from .html files at pagebreaks

I am using DW CS5. When I make a .pdf from the .html file it is not handling the images with captions correctly, or even consistently, at the bottom of the .pdf page.
Here is the Link to the .html code:
http://www.schembs.com/0_PDF_PAGE_PROBLEM.htm
and to the .css, if you need it:
http://www.schembs.com/0_PDF_files/2011_ZachBuch_No_Lines.css
The test page repeats the same image with caption several times.
See at the bottom of page 1. There is not enough space for Image #3 so it correctly puts it at the top of page 2. However it puts the caption for Image #3 in the vertical position as if there were no page break and Image #3 were positioned just below the caption for Image #2. Here is a screenshot of the bottom of page 1:
It then places image #4 below the caption for Image #3, which results in Image #4 being on top of Image #3.
At the bottom of page 2 there is not space for Image #6 so it puts it at the top of page 3. It properly places the caption below Image #6 and properly places Image #7. Here is the bottom of page 2;
At the bottom of page 3 there is not space for all the lines of the caption, so it puts the last line of the caption for Image #8 at the top of page 4. This is o.k. Here is the bottom of page 3:
I can live with it breaking up the caption (not ideal) but not with the caption overwriting the image or images overwriting images.
Thanks very much for your ideas on how to fix this.

Problem with PDF Attachment (from GOS)

Hi Experts,

Can somebody please tell me if I went somewhere wrong. What I feel is, it's because of the PDF file being 255 chars. As I have got the PDF file but not OTF, how can I convert that ot be of 132 chars. Whatever, is the problem due to this reason only?
Can somebody please tell me where I have gone wrong. Your help is highly appreciable.

Solved. Instead of converting object_content, I got contents_hex also and converted that as below:

Problem with PDF generation from Interactive Report

Greetings,
I created an interactive report and chose CSV and PDF download options. I am able to create CSV but when I try to download a PDF it says that that acrobat reader cannot open the created pdf file. I am not sure what I should do to make it work. Please help.

Hey there,
That happened to me when I had an & sign in the page title name. If you have some weird symbols in the page title, try changing them. Then it will work.
PS
Make sure in the title name and page name there are no weird symbols.

Problems with 'Print Booklet' from InDesign CS4

I am having problems using the 'Print Booklet commane in InDesign CS4. I have done this 100s of time from CS3 with no problems but for some reason it just won't auto duplex (print on both sides of the paper) when I do it from CS4. USing exactly the same settings, computer and file. The printer is setup correctly as will print double-sided automatically from other apps. Using mac leopard. Any ideas?

Unfortunately, I have tried this. I choose 'layout' from the printer option within the driver and pick 'short edged binding'. Still no luck.

Problem with exported JPGs from InDesign (CS6 and CC): double rows of pixels

We are using a javasscript for exporting cropped pictures out of our InDesign Layouts. But there is a problem that comes witch each file. No matter what wie change in the export options, it always appears. It seems like there is one row of pixels two times in the jpgs. Can anyone explain - or even better - provide a solution for this?
Here is an example image. the two rows can be seen in the middle of the image:

Well if i do that, the video will raise up GBs larger (and that is really bad).
Why is it really bad?
Its a fact of digital life. High datarate = quality.
example ...even the Youtube preset is in the 8mpbs area.
...and you are exporting 1 hr 35mins of media.

PDF creation from ID - not outlining fonts correctly

Hi all. I have a query regarding PDF creation from InDesign (so this could have been in the Acrobat section instead but went for this one).
I work for a publisher using CS2+3 on PCs. We don't have one out of house printer as a rule but several. All have different requirements.
Essentially we are converting fonts to curves from within InDesign when creating the PDFs. Therefore we have multiple files (curved and text) which is adding lots of time onto projects and adding a further margin for error with missing or out of date files. It seems this process is necessary as whenever I select the option to outline the fonts when creating the PDFs, the printers usually get in touch asking for the font, even though it has been outlined.
I am hoping to find any simple solution, hopefully avoiding purchasing extra software, that avoids creating duplicate 'curved' files. I realise it's a big topic and not restricted to InDesign but this is the main software we are using so figured this was the place for it. Many thanks.

I'll let others question the necessity of outlining text. It has been discussed many, many times before, and the only valid reasons I found so far are producing files for hopelessly outdated printers (the usual recommendation is "find another one, fast!") and for legacy custom hardware such as cutters and engravers.
But this is really a mystery to me:
It seems this process is necessary as whenever I select the option to outline the fonts when creating the PDFs, the printers usually get in touch asking for the font, even though it has been outlined.
Tr this: outline all text in your ID document. Export as PDF. Check under Document Properties, Fonts. How many fonts do you see? If everything is outlined, there shouldn't be any.
How does the printer know what fonts to ask for, and what is he ever gonna do with these fonts?
