When printing a numbers file to pdf hyperlinks disappear

I have created a Numbers file containing text in cells that link to a web page. It works perfectly in the Numbers file itself, but once converted ('printed') to PDF using the OS X print functionality in Numbers, the text in the cells is still underlined, but links have disappeared...

What you actually need is file file conversion app
that could convert the Numbers file to a PDF file.
Most any "print to PDF" does just the same thing as
printing to an actual printer. It simpy images the file
just as any printer driver would do but puts the results
into a PDF file. Put simply, the PDF file becomes
a sheet of paper.

Missing page header when exporting a Numbers sheet to PDF??

I am running OS X 10.8.5 and Numbers 09 Version 2.3, all on a 2009 MBP.
I created a simple table and have a page header (title, etc).
When I print this file directly from Numbers to the printer, everything is okay.
But when I export the file to PDF and print the PDF, the header is gone.
Any thoughts?

I have done some addtional problem solving. I now have the issue isolated to the export function. It does not export the page header when exporting to PDF. It does do it when exporting to file type - post script.
Interesting.
Anybody got something to add here?

How do I maintain bookmarks in multiple documents when exporting a book file to PDF?

I am using a book file to organize 10 individual indesign documents. Each document has its own set of bookmarks and links, and their are links that go to other documents within the book as well. How do I (using CS3) print my book file to PDF while maintaining all the interactive components? I want my complete list of bookmarks to appear within the bookmark pane, and I want all of the interactive links in the document to work when they are clicked in the PDF. Doing this for one document is simple, set the preferences to enable the bookmarks and links. However, none of these PDF export settings seem to work when printing the entire book.
Help!

I had it open, just wasn't looking in the right spot. Found it... thanks a bundle. This has made my day... as long as the bookmarks work when I export.
Thanks!

No, but if you really mean that the way you said it, I don't know that Print is the best way to this. If you haven't already, after selecting the images you want to get printed, try clicking the Export button in Book or Library module and then selecting format .PDF. Once you export the file to .PDF, try opening it where you saved it and printing from there, not in Lightroom but in Adobe Reader. If that doesn't help, here are a couple of videos that might--follow their instructions carefully with no shortcuts:
Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4's Export to PDF Using the New Book Module - YouTube
Lightroom 5 - Exporting Images | Getting Started with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 | Adobe TV
If Lightroom keeps closing even when you try all this, you may need to reinstall Lightroom because your copy may be screwed up.

Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

I am not aware of a field type "Help" within a PDF form. I do not see it as a form field that can be added in the form edit mode.
Forms Central forms do not support all the features of Acrobat forms.
Are you talking about the "Tool Tips" or a hidden field that only shows when one enters a field and is hidden upon exiting the field.

Can you please tell me what to do when I change a file from PDF to word and it comes up with headers

Can you you please tell me what to do when I change a file from PDF to word and it comes up with headers and footers. I do not want the headers and footers but I need the information so that changes can be made in them - There are over 80 pages in this document and every page had a header and footer. The document did not have any headers and footers when it was first typed out.

Good day,
Try converting the document to a .doc format instead of .docx.
If that doesn't resolve the issue, please share the file with us via the File Conversion Issue form. Be sure to reference this forum thread in your description so we can circle back on the issue.
Kind regards,

Converting many numbers files to PDFs?

Hi everyone!
I would like to convert many Numbers files to PDF documents. Every Numbers document should be a new PDF with the same name!
I even tried to write a workflow file with Automator, but I dont get the "create a PDF"-part running.
Furthermore I googled for 2 hours, but all scripts I found do not work with the latest Numbers version...
Please help me... Maybe one of you have a Apple Script or a solution using Automator?
OS X 10.9.3
Numbers Version 3.2 (1861)

Dear Lori,
promptUser =false, see below.
Does not work.
All programs that might disturbe PDF output removed from computer.
Does not work.
I am now investing some evenings into Word-VBA, making a script loop through the subdirectories over several levels (does Acrobat do that anyway?)...
Does not work.
Not yet.
It will have to...
best regards,
Boris

Why does my image not reach the edges of the page when printed, but appears fine as pdf?

Why does my image not reach the edges of the page when printed, but appears fine as pdf?

Check a printable area of your printer.
Make a (grey) rectangle that is larger than the paper size. Print it,
you'll get a message that some cropping will occur, that's okay. Then take a
ruler and measure the dimensions of the rectangle printed on the paper or
the white borders around the printed rectangle.

Printing issue when converting an .indd file to .pdf

All,
I have two .indd files that loose color when printing after .pdf conversion. The first file looses all color and changes the text font. The second file prints correctly on the first page but not the second. The seond .indd file looses it's color all the way through.
When I view the .pdf, they both look fine. Also, If I print directly from indesign, it prints fine.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

You need to provide us with more information.
How are you creating the PDF files? Export (recommended)? Print to PostScript (strongly discouraged)? With exactly what settings?
If you examine the PDF file in Acrobat, does the document information indicate that all the fonts are embedded?
More information and we can try to begin assisting you.

Printer not selectable from drop down when printing any pdf file. Printer is available when printing any other file format.

Client is running Adobe Acrobat X. When trying to print their Ricoh printer can not be seen in the drop down menu. The Printer was added locally and the printer can print any other file format.

Your ps file should be good, the problem likely resides elswehere. Maybe in your acrobat install, distillers settings. what error did distiller give?
Mine ran good and got a multi page document, here is a screenshot to help you troubleshoot.
On mac go to system preferences / print and fax / and change your default printer if you have another option. I know sounds like this should not help, but there are problems like Illustrator for example not making .pdfs if you do not have a printer chosen or an old or corrupt .ppd assigned.

How to export of multi-sheet Numbers file to PDF in one go?

Attempts to export more than first sheet as a PDF fails. Export to Excel is sort of OK, but only with some loss of format.
PDF work-around involved saving the Numbers file with different file names for succeeding sheets, then eliminating earlier sheets before exporting as PDFs, and finally using Acrobat Pro to glue the whole boiling together. Very clumsy.
What am I doing wrong? And what should I do instead?

I would have thought that "Print Sheet(s)" would have done this but... Export to PDF does support multiple sheet "printing." Select the Sheets then Export > PDF...

Unable to print FrameMaker 9 file to PDF with Acrobat Data

I'm trying to print a FrameMaker 9 file to PDF, but the "Generate Acrobat Data" field and the PDF Setup button are both disabled - meaning I cannot select or unselect either. How can I get these re-enabled?

Jeff, yes, it happens with all our files. FYI, we have 5 networked computers with FM and this is happening on all our computers too. The latest patch we have is p196. Do you think that could cause the problem?
Arnis, I double checked the printer. I got to a screen that looks similar to yours and it does say Adobe PDF Converter driver. But it's interesting that you say this is what happens when it detects a non-postscript printer. Could the driver be corrupt or something?

Distortion of excel charts when converting microsoft publisher file to pdf

I am using the print "Adobe PDF" function in publisher to convert a publisher file to pdf. Some exel pie charts that were pasted into the publisher file become distorted at the edges in the pdf file. I have tried playing with various settings and using the "print quality" settings but nothing has helped. See the attached files for an example of the excel chart, publisher file, and results I am getting when converting to pdf.
Thanks all.

I'm sorry I didn't make it clear. What I'm trying to say is that the graphic looks just fine in publisher. But when it is converted to a pdf, the graphic has distorted edges, if you look at the publisher and pdf files I attached I think you might see what I'm talking about.
Please let me know if it's still not clear.

Illustrator CS5 - Cannot make custom size when "printing" a PostScript file

Hi all,
I've recently picked up Illustrator CS5, and while this year's model sure is lovely, I'm having an issue when I save a file (or print) as a PostScript file. My aim is to convert the file to a PDF using Distiller and in the Print dialogue box, the PPD field in past versions says something along the lines of Adobe PDF 8.0. In CS5, I do not have the option to select that from the PPD drop down menu (Nor can I find the file to add to the list). Additionally, I can't make a 'custom sized pdf,' only preset paper sizes. I've had to resort to opening my files in CS3 to convert them to PostScript files. I forsee this becoming a problem once I start diving into some of Illustrator CS5's new features.
I get the feeling the program didn't install with an Adobe PDF plug-in and I can't seem to find a substitute online that isn't from 1999 (!). Is there a way to get that plug-in file that my copy of CS3 is using into my CS5?
I'm on a Mac by the way, version 10.6.

I feel your frustration!
I ran all updates and it did nothing because I was still on an older version of Acrobat. Once I installed Acrobat 9, restarted illustrator, I had all of the PDF options avaliable to me found in the link that fuzzydisco design provided me:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50981.html
Having Acrobat 9 seemed to be the essential missing component to me. If you do have Acrobat 9 already, and its not working, then thats a problem I don't know how to fix unfortunately!
