What is going on??? InDesign crashes when exporting an interactive .pdf!

I created a 24 page interactive form for an iPad in InDesign CS6 for a class project. I used the new buttons and forms feature. Whenever I try to export the form to an interactive pdf InDesign crashes and an unexpected error crash screen comes up. This is very frustrating because I need to export it to view the interactivity. PLEASE HELP ME!!

Can you export it in two halves? If not, does one half export, but the other crash?
Waht's the OS? Is ID patched to 8.0.1?

Indesign CS5.5 Crashes when exporting an Interactive PDF

My InDesign CS5.5 continues to crash when trying to export an Interactive PDF.
It begins to come up with a box titled WARNING but it all closes and i don't even see the error message.
Will it work if I deactivate and reactive? will that work by any chance?
Its really frustrating.
Yasmine.

Please upload the crash report to http://pastebin.com and post a link here.
I saw the "Replace, or "trash" your InDesign preferences" thread but am confused as to what I need to delete vs. rename or move.
It's teh same as the vulcan nerve pinch you tried -- I assume InDesign prompted you to delete preferences and you said OK.
What happens if you create a new document and Pages (panel) > Move Pages pages 1-83 to the new document, and then recreate 84 and 85 by hand? Does it work? Presumably this is document corruption of some sort.

Indesign crash when exporting file into pdf

Hi, I am having a little problem with my Indesign program. I don't know how to fix it. So this is what happen....
I finish a 2 page file in Indesign and I wanted to export it to pdf. I click on export and it runs for 1 page and then Indesign crash. I thought it was because I have too much images, so it runs very slow. I delete some picture and try again. The same thing happen.
I don't know what I should do?!?! I search around for help but seems like I am the only one that have that problem??

I have run into the occasional image that causes the PDF export to fail. Sometimes they are AI files and sometimes they are PSD files. I usually resave them in different formats and this fixes the problem. I haven't yet figured out the reason that the files cause the PDF export to have problems. Last week I ran into a complicated AI file that just refused to export to PDF in ID. I saved it out of Illustrator as an EPS and then it exported fine out of ID. Typically I don't have problems with AI files, so it may just be an odd image on page one of your document that is causing the problem.
If it prints okay, you might try printing to PDF rather than exporting.

HELP! CS5.5 Crashes When Exporting as Interactive PDF

I just finished an 85-page document that needs to be exported as an interactive PDF but when I export it, InDesign CS5.5 crashes as it gets to page 84 every single time. This has happened with other CS5.5 documents but when packaging the files instead.
I have already tried resetting the preferences (via the Cmd + Ctrl + Opt + Shift (Mac) method) but to no avail. The document crashed again.
I have also tried saving it as an .idml file and resaving as an .indd file but still, the crash.
Then recently, I received this error message for the very first time: "Adobe InDesign is shutting down. A serious error was detected. Please restart InDesign to recover work in any unsaved InDesign documents."
I saw the "Replace, or "trash" your InDesign preferences" thread but am confused as to what I need to delete vs. rename or move.
I'm using Mac OSX 10.6.8 and running InDesign CS5.5 7.5.0.142.

Indesign crashes when Exporting a Print PDF

Has anyone had problems with Exporting Print PDF from Indesign CC?
I can do an interactive one, but not print.
No. It is not the file I am trying to print. I have tried a brand new one with nothing in it as well.

I believe "PrintFusion45" recommends you to use lower resolution (resized) copies of your original TIFFs in your Indesign document.
You can have a look at the "effective ppi" in the "link info" window for a selected image, and compare it with the intended print resolution (in your case perhaps the image downsampling setting in the pdf export).
If you intend to create a pdf using 300 ppi downsampling for the images, and the effective ppi of an image in the document is 1000 ppi (which could be the result if you rezise a large image to a small area in InDesign), then InDesign will have much more data to process, than using an image that already has the same ppi as the intended output.
There is of course the downside of keeping more than one original image, just to get the InDesign documents "lighter" and faster to print.
I hope this makes things a bit clearer.

InDesign Crashes when exporting to InCopy

I support several hundred InDesign/ InCopy users. We have been using this workflow for several years.
Approximately a month ago, we migrated to CS5 (7.0.3). I began to immediately get support calls that InDesign and InCopy were crashing. A few of the calls were that InCopy was crashing when pasting text from MS Office, but he overwhelming majority of the calls are for InDesign crashing when exporting stories to InCopy. If exported one at a time, the stories export fine. When exporting all stories or an entire text layer of stories, it will crash nearly without fail.
Our environment consists of Mac Pro 2x2.66Ghz and 2.8Ghz Intel Core Duo 2 iMacs running 10.5.8. with CS5 7.0.3. This is happening on multiple machines. A few of them have been gone over to verify base OS integrity, permissions repaired, DiskWarrior run etc… to make sure we did not have individual machine issues.
I need resolution for both issues, but the crashing while exporting is so prevalent that my graphic designers are starting to really get aggravated.
I searched the forum for "InCopy", for "export" and for "crash." None of those terms returned a single hit. I can't imagine those terms are not in this forum, so I am working on the assumption that searching must be broken at the moment.
Thanks in advance for any guidance,
Kevin

Try posting on the InCopy forum. There was another similar report there...
Did you fill out a bug report?

InDesign Crashes When Export to PDF - Only When Hyperlinks Checkbox is Enabled

I think I've read every single posting on the web for InDesign crashing on export, and have tried pretty much all of the solutions with no luck.
I am exporting a document (a table of contents document) in InDesign to PDF. With any of the export options on EXCEPT the hyperlinks option, it does fine. When I click on the hyperlinks option, it crashes.
I've recreated this document several times, e.g. exporting to IDML (which also causes it to crash), copying the text out and pasting it into a new document (still crashes)...the problem file is the one titled Intro_Electrical. I've tried replacing it with another document, but it still crashes. I've tried creating a new book, but it still crashes.
The link to the files is here:
https://www.box.net/shared/stbtj81v3j
Normally this would not be a big deal, but I have an ugly feeling that several of my foundation documents are based off of this file. If at all possible, I would like to be able to correct this issue instead of having to turn off the hyperlink option.
If you can offer any advice for correcting this, I'd really appreciate it. I've been dealing with this problem since CS4 and was hoping that it was something that would be fixed with CS5, but apparently not...or it's just me, I'm not sure

The table of contents is build ussing TOC module. It's collecting content from 7 book documents. I have almost the same file build in an other language and it's working perfectly. Never had this issue before. I can not find the difference between both documents. I tried to deleting all the chapters and ad them one by one but it's crashing the moment that hyperlinks are used no mater how many chapters from other documents are added. However if the table of contents is made only from one documnet - inside of that document hyperlinks are stable and pdf can be produced not cousing any issues.
I will try to delete page by page and check if I can discover problem maker. As this is going to be soooooooo time consuming I'm waiting for any other sollution. Anyone?

CS2 InDesign crash when exporting

Hi,
I've got a copy of CS2 InDesign at work that crashes when exporting a certain file to PDF.
The files have limited information on each page except for placed PDF & JPG images. The images themselves seldom get above 300kb each, but there are lots - some times 5 per page in an 80 page document. It's a document to be printed so the images are as small as they can be.
When exporting the document, ID crashes without warning - it just vanishes, no dialog box saying 'This application unexpectedly quit' or anything.
Is this common? I have plenty of memory on the Mac, and no other applications or windows are open at the same time.
Any suggestions as to why this happens?
All text in the PDF images are outlined in Illustrator so presumably it's not a type recognition issue.
Any suggestions welcome.
cheers
G

Hi Bob,
System spec is PowerPC G5, version 10.4.11. I'll have to ask our Mac expert
if CS2 is fully patched.
Cheers for your response.

Indesign Crashes when exporting PDF

Hi,
We are experiencing an issue when exporting an .indd file as .pdf. The process gets as far as a certain page (8 out of 13) and then crashes when reading a pdf image from that page. It does one of two things - it crashes or displays an 'out of memory' message. We had task manager running alongside the program to check memory usage and there are no major spikes during the export process (it doesn't even hit 80%)
- We can export every other page in the document except this one
- The export works without marks & bleeds enabled (not really sure of the terminology so I do apologise)
The document is going off to print so the pdf image has to be of high resolution. Does anyone have any ideas as to how we can get around this issue?
The INdesign package is CS4 (32bit) and the pc has 4GB of RAM
Any assistance would be much appreciated

Friends I'm reading all the posts, but I have the same problem. My Indesign crashes exporting a document of 60 pages into pdf.
Can anybody help me please? The next week I have to deliver the project. Thank you!

InDesign Crashing When Exporting a Large Book

I have a large InDesign book (159 documents) that recently started crashing when I export the whole thing. The book was created years ago, and I can't figure out what would cause this issue all of a sudden. Originally, I thought this was due to the linked cross references I recently added, since it's the only thing that's changed about the book. But I removed all cross references, and I'm still having the same issue. I can export the first half of the book, the second half of the book, or even 3/4 of the book successfully. It's just when I try to export the whole thing that InDesign crashes.
I'm using the latest version of InDesign CS 5.5 on OS X 10.8.2.
I have another discussion posted about this (http://forums.adobe.com/message/5132896), but decided to start a new thread since the other one was focused on the cross references. Toward the end of that discussion, people started suggesting that this was just an issue with my computer--that I don't have enough free space, etc. But I had my company's IT guy watch Activity Monitor while I tried to export the book, and he assured me that my computer is completely capable of completing this export. This makes sense to me since I've always been able to export the book using this computer, and the book hasn't gotten significantly larger or more complex.
One workaround we found was to export the book as an interactive PDF instead of a print PDF. However, I've been battling bolder text on pages with transparency for years, and exporting as an interactive PDF seems to make this issue much worse. (For more info on this issue, see the following thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/421267.)
Is there anyone smarter than me that has a guess as to why I'd be able to export the book as an interactive PDF, but not as a print PDF? I'm hoping this new info will help in troubleshooting the crashing.

Eureka! I re-created the book from scratch, and I can export just fine now. The book file must have been corrupt.
This has been sitting at the bottom of my list of things to try the whole time, but I never thought it would be the solution. Hopefully if anyone else has this issue, they will stumble upon this and try this first instead of last!

InDesign Crashing when exporting to PDF, can't decipher the cause

I created a document in InDesign CS6, and each time I try to export the document to a PDF (of any compression, smallest file size, print quality, etc) InDesign crashes. I have zero errors in my preflight and no extraneous fonts.
I have restarted both my computer and ID and it is not responding differently.
I copied the crash report: http://pastebin.com/UBaVKmph
Any suggestions of thing to try that I overlooked?
Thread 22 shows the crash, but I am not certain what it is inducating and how to solve it, any pointers?

First thing, install the CS6 8.0.2 patch.
The crashed thread looks like it made a couple of calls to a K2 plugin just before it quit. Not sure if that's a third-party automation plugin or something native (way back when, ID was codenamed K2, apparently).

Indesign crashes when exporting to pdf with .eps and .ai files placed

Hi everyone,
I have an Indesign file with 4 placed Illustrator .eps file placed. Whenever I try to export to pdf, it starts to export and then when it reaches a page with a .eps file on it, it hovers for a minute and then Indesign crashes. I decided to save these 4 .eps files as .ai files and replace them. Now when I export to pdf, it gets through the export and a pdf file is created but immediately after, Indesign crashes.
Is this a sign of corrupt .eps or .ai files or a corrupt Indesign file? All I know is that if I remove all the image files, then the ID file is fine, ie. it exports and ID doesn't crash.
Is there a way to test either .eps, .ai or Indesign files for corruption, and if they are corrupt is it possible to repair them?
Appreciate any help offered.

You haven't said which version of Indesign you are using or other specs, but I would bet that you are using CS2 on an Intel Mac. CS2 runs under Rosetta on an Intel Mac, and I have found that memory problems are often the result of crashes like the ones you have described. My advice is to stay away from EPS files and use AI or PSD, especially if the file is a bitmap or photo. This has eliminated all the crashes that used to occur on my system. As far as the crashes after making PDF files, I don't have a solution other than restarting Indesign after exporting a PDF file or two at a time. The same Rosetta memory problem seems to mess it up for me. Mine would just exit from Indesign with no warning. Hope this helps.

Len Swierski

CC 2014 InDesign Crashing when exporting or saving as a PDF or viewing in high display

When I am working in CC 2014 InDesign and attempt to save a PDF or export the document the application crashes. There are no errors in the document and no other apparent problems. I've rebooted the application a number of times but it does not help.
Any suggestions???

If you work for Adobe, you need to have your supervisor assign you an employee badge to identify you on the forums
Otherwise, why are you posting a telephone number?

Cs5 InDesign crashing when exporting print pdf and markup file?

We just did our upgrade yesterday from cs4 to cs5. Two things that I have discovered so far that I haven’t been able to figure out.
I need to create a pdf from a file...I go to export — print pdf — this QUITS (if I do the interactive pdf it works okay but I need a print ready one. I had to print a postscript file — then distill it in acrobat — so far, knock on wood that works but is time consuming.
I tried to export a — InDesign MarkUp file (imdl), the new interchange to go from 5 to 4 — I was thinking okay...I will just take the cs5 file back to cs4 and make the pdf there but when making the imdl file to open in cs4 I also crash.
any help would be appreciated!

I had a major problem with exporting CS5 Indesign interactive PDF doc (270pgs) it would crash reasonbly consistently, other times behave OK? After many hours reading forums, and Adobe help desk I found my own work-around which I want to share (as I couldn't believe it was so simple and worked!)
OK..so the doc has navigation buttons and hyperlinks all the way through....I Exported half the doc. Then the other half. Then I combined in Acrobat.
There it is....simple and boy am I happy now!!

What is going on??? InDesign crashes when exporting an interactive .pdf!
