Where is the logfile for Acrobat Pro Extended 9.2 on Windows ? (regarding Microsoft Office 2003)

My installation of Acrobat Pro extended works printing all types of Microsoft Office 2003 documents (Word, Excel, Pagemaker, etc) but NOT with Powerpoint and I'm trying to get more information other than what I'm seeing in Powerpoint when I try to create the PDF which is "an error occurred while trying to print the Adobe PDF"
where would I look for the log file?
thanks

Where can I download an install file for Acrobat Pro version 9 for Mac.

I had Acrobat Pro version 9 running fine under Snow Leopard but since upgrading to first Mavericks and then Yosemite it has issues. I was running it under Snow leopard Server and parallels but after some problem it needs reinstalling and I can't find a suitable install file.
I searched the Adobe web site and came up with the Windows version but my Mac version Serial number is no good for that. Any ideas where I might find the file?

Acrobat Pro Extended v9.0, where can I find update v9.1?

I have Acrobat Pro Extended v9.0 and I am installing it on my new computer Windows 8 because my old one crashed. I am looking for the update to go to Acrobat Pro Extended v9.1 so I can continue with the updates that follow. Every time I look for the update v9.1 does not seem to exist. I find the updates after v9.1 like v9.1.1 but I cannot install them unless I first install v9.1. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Hi,
Please try to go to the ftp location mentioned below for the update.

Where i can find the serial number of Acrobat Pro Subscription Edition?

The only number i could find is the Order Number in a confirmation email.

The subscription is a Acrobat Pro Subscription Edition (un año).
The subscription status doesn't appear or can't find the serial number. This is what appear:

Where do I get my serial number for Acrobat Pro?

I just purchased my one year subscription, but I did not receive a serial number.

Hi Ramoskr,
If you've purchased a subscription, no serial number is required. Once your order processes fully (which can take 24-48 hours), your Adobe ID/password will work as verification of your purchase. You just need to log in, download Acrobat, and install it.
Best,
Sara

Where can I find updates for Acrobat Pro 8?

Does anyone know where I can find the update files for Acrobat Pro 8.0? My scanning keeps crashing the program. I know its an old version, but its the only one I've got!
Thanks!

ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/. Be sure to install the updates in order. Since the HTML descriptions are gone, it is impossible to tell which ones you can skip. Reboot after the last update.

Acrobat Pro installed on a Windows 2003 32bit server - where's the 64bit driver?

Hello.
I'm still newbie with Acrobat Pro so please bear with me if this is a silly question.
A prospect of ours installed the TRIAL version of Acrobat Pro Extended on a 32bit Windows 2003 server and everything went fine; this server "serves" a number of Windows 7 64bit boxes which are supposed to share the PDF Printer created on the Win2003 server during the installation.
Problem is that when the printer gets shared and clients try to install it, the 64bit driver could not be found.
The customer tried to install the 64bit driver on the Win2003 box but he does not know where to find the correct .INF file for 64bit windows client.
Thanks,
Rob

Two facts for consideration. As I understand it the trail only comes in 64-bit. Don't know for sure since I have never downloaded it, but that is a faint memory.
More importantly, read the EULA carefully before you purchase for the type of application you listed. The general EULA does not allow the use of Acrobat on a server in the manner you have indicated. You have to purchase Acrobat for each machine, not a server. You may have enough that need to use the product that a volume license is in order -- contact Adobe for that. In the meantime, use the Acrobat Trail to test the features and such to be sure it meets your needs (other than the server use).

Assign certain color to certain part of body CS3 !

Dear Friends !!
Here is a little challenging question for some , it might be nothing to some Pros , but to us ordinary editors means a lot !
Let's say I have a chroma (Green screen) footage , which contain a simple girl standing in front of green screen acting .
She is wearing red shirt , blue pants and black shoes in front of a green screen with decent lighting and make up.
Now , even though she put good amount of make up on her face, but I still don't like the tone or color of her skin, her red shirt is red but not a rich red color as well as her blue pants is not rich blue, I mean a good blue or a nice blue !
Is there any way to assign certain colors to certain part of her body, I mean let's say her face or skin tone, I wanna have it a little more natural (just the skin) I don't wanna change the color of her hair or clothing !
and then goto hair and make the hair look more black , without touching her face and her clothing color and ect !

Either RGB Curves (my personal preference for color correcting) or the Three-Way Color Corrector will allow you to isolate specific luminance (brightness) and chrominance (color) ranges to a certain degree, so that you can affect only the values that you want to adjust. It may take multiple copies of an effect, each working on certain colors or ranges of colors, to get the output you want, but it should be doable.
Note that this will take a lot of tweaking and work, but if you've never experimented with color correction before, there's no time like the present!

Possibility to assign a color profile in the color management tab for more video formats

Presently, in After Effects CS5, in the color management tab of the "Interpret Footage" dialog box the possibility to assign a color profile to footage is grayed out for many video formats.
Formats that allow to assign a color profile include Quicktime/JPEG2000, Quicktime/Motion JPEG A, Quicktime/Motion JPEG B, Quicktime/MPEG-4, Quicktime/Animation as well as various image sequences, like tiff-sequences. (Motion JPEG A,B and Quicktime/MPEG-4 are not very helpful in this context because they have a small color shift when reimported to After Effects.)
Formats that do not allow to assign a color profile include Quicktime/PhotoJPEG, Quicktime/H264, H264 main concept, DVCPRO HD 1080p30, F4V. (Here, H264 main concept has anyway the disadvantage that it has a color shift when reimported into After Effects.)
In After Effects CS4 it was possible to assign a color profile to Quicktime/H264, Quicktime/PhotoJPEG, DVCPRO HD 1080p30, but in CS5 this is no longer possible.
Those video formats that do not allow to assign a color profile automatically are interpreted as having the color profile HDTV (Rec. 709) Y'CbCr in case that the videos have 1920x1080 format; similar applies to PAL formats which get SDTV (Rec. 709) Y'CbCr color profile.
(I did not find anything of this automatic assignment to HDTV or SDTV color profile in the "interpretation rules.txt" file, therefore it must be written into the programme itself.)
With growing popularity of wide gamut monitors it becomes necessary to produce footage and other videos that have a color profile different from HDTV or sRGB. When such footage is reimported to After Effects it has the wrong color and the only workarounds are either to use (in After Effects) the effect "Color profile converter" which necessitates extra render time or to use somewhat unpopular formats, like JPEG2000 that has very large filesize.
Presently many footage is produced in Quicktime/PhotoJPEG and therefore it would be very desirable to allow to assign a color profile to such footage in the color management tab of the "Interpret Footage" dialog box.
Does anyone know why in AE CS5 the video formats Quicktime/PhotoJPEG and Quicktime/H264 do not allow to have an arbitrary color profile assigned (although it was possible in CS4), is it a bug, or does it have a deeper reason.
In this context I have a related question, often I read that Quicktime videos have a gamma tag. Does this mean that part of the color profile (the gamma value) is actually embedded/remembered, like you have it for images where the gamma is part the embedded color profile.
I use AE CS5 on Mac Pro 2009 with OS 10.6.7.
Thanks,
Volker

Thank you Rick for this interesting explanations and the links to articles.
In the past few days I performed a few tests in After Effects and it is interesting that you mention that cameras, like the Sony EX3, allow videos to have embedded color profiles. I am not working myself with cameras but either get footage from the internet or sometimes videos from our video department which produces videos with professional SONY cameras, usually I get them in a matrox mxf format.
As far as my test with After Effects show it is not possible to embed color profiles in the videos rendered with After Effects. Independent of the color profile in the working space and independent from the color profile in the output module I always get the same reaction if I reimport videos rendered by After Effects back to After Effects:
In AE CS5 videos made in the formats Quicktime/PhotoJPEG, Quicktime/H264, H264 main concept, DVCPRO HD 1080p30, F4V are always interpreted as color profile SDTV/HDTV (Rec. 709) Y'CbCr (even if I made them in other color profiles, such as Adobe RGB, Photo RGB, sRGB); and there is no possibility to change this interpretation rule.
In contrast videos made in the formats Quicktime/JPEG2000, Quicktime/Motion JPEG A, Quicktime/Motion JPEG B, Quicktime/MPEG-4, Quicktime/Animation are always interpreted as sRGB (even if if I made them in other color profiles, such as Adobe RGB, Photo RGB, HDTV); only this time I can change the interpretation rule. Therefore if I know for example that if I had selected Photo RGB in the Output module I can change after the reimport the interpretation rule from sRGB to Photo RGB and only then I get again the original colors.
The only exceptions are picture sequences, such as tiff-sequences, where the original color profile is automatically selected in the interpretation of the footage.
Therefore, unfortunately for videos produced by After Effects your advice "If it says something like sRGB and you can change it, in most cases you shouldn't change it because the guess is probably right. If there is no color profile assigned then you should assume that is correct." is not so easy to be applied. You have to know how you did it originally in the Output module and hope that you can change it to the proper color profile, in case that the original color profile in the Output module was different from sRGB and HDTV/SDTV. But it is interesting to hear from you that with cameras there seem to be more possibilities.
For this reason it would be nice if in future versions of After Effects one could change the color profile in the the color management tab of the "Interpret Footage" dialog box also for formats such as Quicktime/PhotoJPEG, Quicktime/H264, H264 main concept, DVCPRO HD 1080p30, F4V.
Of course one can always circumvent shortcomings by using tiff-sequences, QT/jpeg2000, or QT/Animation as formats for storing, which is anyway better for lossless or nearly lossless storing, but the files are then too large and also cannot be played easily with a player.

Exported Raw Conversion Image Resolution and Assigning a Color Profile, etc

In Aperture 1.1, although I set the exported Raw conversion image resolution to 300 dpi in the preferences, it continues to come out at 72 dpi which is something of an inconvenience. Also, is it possible to assign a color profile to the "exported version" so that it is congruent to my PS CS2 color workspace (if that is what its called). Is this program capable of carrying out a conversion as a background operation? Finally, can the layout windows be configured so that they remember how they have been used in the past? Thanks.

Iatrogenic huh! Cool!
Anyway, I'm not real clear on what it is you are trying to accomplish. Despite your obvious vocabulary skills, there seems to be some disconnect relative to what you are trying to accomplish. You are right that "exporting a version" in Aperture is roughly equivalent to what happens in ACR when you "Open" a RAW image into Photoshop. In both cases you have, hopefully, already done the adjusting of parameters you want prior to "exporting", or "opening". When you "open" or "export" you wind up with an "image" composed of pixels, whereas in the RAW adjustment phase you are just working with a temporary thumbnail and a set of mathematical instructions. Big difference, I suppose is that when you "open" and image from ACR into CS2, the resulting image is truly just pixels and has not had a "file type" applied to the file yet, until you "save" it, while in Aperture, if you "export" a file to CS2, or to the desktop, you end up with the file type already applied. Presuming you "export" a 16 bit TIFF or PSD, there is no operational difference.
I could be wrong, but with the new Bayer Demosaicing algorithms in Aperture 1.1, and the Camera RAW adjustments, you should be able to come up with an adjusted image that is VERY close if not identical to one done in ACR, with the possible exception of lens abberation adjustment. I was very critical of the RAW adjustments in 1.0.1, but I am very happy with the capabilites in 1.1. That said, I think there is still some room for improvement in user friendliness of some of the adjustments such as Levels.

Need help forming randomly colored lines, that are equidistant(ex included)

Randomized Colors are Too Dark. Questions on Color Boxes

Hey all,
I am attempting to change the color of the plots on a mixed signal
graph remotely using the "color box" control which works fine; however, I
am also setting the color boxes to a random color when the program
first starts up which is where my problem lies.
What I currently am doing is that I have a random number generator
pumping out a number after which I multiply the number by 10000000, just
to give me some colors brighter than black, and then I have that wired up to
the color box control I am setting the random color on. The problem with
this is that although it does produce some decent colors some of the
colors produced are quite dark and pretty hard to see on the mixed
signal graph.
I could make the graph background a different color if I have to in
order to see a majority of the colors that come out, but I would much
rather just have the colors come out more on the bright and colorful
side.
So I have two questions for you guys and gals:
1) How do the colors of the colorbox get determined using the unsigned 32 int?
One such example of why I am confused is that the number that I have
going in is 5726420 from the random number generator (+ being
multiplied), but on the colorbox control the RGB value is R:87 G:96
B:212. Why is that?
2) Is there any kind of algorithm out there that someone has done
that can produce values randomly that will give kind of neony colors? or
anything semi-bright for that matter?
Any help is very much appreciated!

Where does Lightroom display color space?

Where does Lightroom display color space assigned to an image? It should be in the metadata panel. In Bridge it displays Color Mode: RGB/B&W and Color Space: sRGB/Gray Gamma 2.2. Or does Lightroom convert everything to Adobe RGB or ProPhoto RGB?

LR's internal working space is a variation of the ProPhoto RGB space, ProPhoto RGB's gamut but with a linear tone curve instead of the standard gamma 1.8 curve. This is because it is primarily a Raw editor and Raw sensor data is linear and because the ProPhoto gamut will more or less include all the colors most digital cameras can capture (depending on the filters in front of the lens, some cameras may capture ultra-red that is outside ProPhoto RGB). Retaining the linearity of the data makes editing calculations easier, faster, more flexible and more accurate since data has not been lost to the quantization errors involved in gamma correction. So for a Raw file the workflow is the assignation of the camera profile and conversion from that to linear ProPhoto RGB. However, the display data from the Develop module (the data sent to your monitor) undergoes a further conversion that involves the application of the sRGB tone curve, which is sort of gamma 2.2 but not exactly. This is because linear image data looks terrible - very dark and flat. Thus, the display is in a hybrid space called Melissa RGB, ProPhoto primaries and sRGB tonal response curve. At the time of export or printing a conversion is done from linear ProPhoto RGB to the output space designated by the user, which can be any RGB space - ProPhoto RGB, Adobe RGB, sRGB or any other one, provided you have an ICC profile for it in your OS's Color folder..
Previews used by the Library module are jpgs in the Adobe RGB space.

How do I generate a random color? Here's my code...

I'm trying to color a rectangle one of four colors, randomly. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Here's my code:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Rectangle extends JComponent {
     private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
     public Rectangle(int x, int y, int w, int h) {
        super();
          setBounds(x, y, w, h);
        setBackground(Color.RED);
    public void paint(Graphics g) {
        g.setColor( getBackground() );
        g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth()-1, getHeight()-1);
        repaint();
        paintChildren(g);
}Basically, I need "g.setColor( getBackground() );" to be one of four random colors. I have a seperate class that this is used for.
Here is some code I was throwing around, but it doesn't seem to work at all:
public void randomcolor(int too) {
     Random ran = new Random();
     too=ran.nextInt(4)+1;
     switch (too)     {
     case 1: color=Color.blue;
     break;
     case 2: color= Color.green;
     break;
     case 3:color=Color.orange;
     break;
     case 4: color=Color.green;
     break;
     default: System.out.println("wrong number, pick another ");
     top.setBackground(color);
     left.setBackground(color);
     right.setBackground(color);
     bottom.setBackground(color);
}     Any help would be amazing. Thanks!

Thanks! Your code worked exactly as it was supposed
to. =D
Unfortunately, mine's kind of messed up at the core.
You see, I have 4 rectangles (forming a square) that
flash in a random position at a random size in a
window (like a screen saver.)
Each time the square flashes, I need it to be a
different color, preferably with all the sides the
same random color. However, where I put the random
code, it chose random colors for each side and stuck
with them throughout the whole animation of the
square bouncing around.
I'm not sure what to do, now. If you want, I'll post
my code, if you think you can help.
~DacWhat you could do then is move the responsibility of changing the Color of a Rectangle away from the Rectangle class and let one class control the four Rectangles. Something like this:
import java.awt.Color;
import java.util.Random;
public class RectangleController {
    private static Random rand = new Random();
    private Color[] colors = {Color.blue, Color.green, Color.orange, Color.green};
    private Rectangle[] rectangles;
    public RectangleController() {
        rectangles = new Rectangle[4];
    public void changeColors() {
        Color newColor = getRandomColor();
        for(Rectangle rect : rectangles) {
            rect.setBackground(newColor);
    private Color getRandomColor() {
        return colors[rand.nextInt(colors.length)];
}
