Why do encrypted PDfs now appear as blank pages?

Since installing Snow Leopard all of my encrypted PDFs appear as blank pages once I type in the password. I was wondering if anyone knew how and if this can be fixed.

I'm sorry, but in what way?
Do you mean the encrypted document you want to view shows nothing but a blank page when you give the password?
Or do you mean the icon for the PDF is blank and doesn't show a preview? I'd imagine that's because it's encrypted and so probably assumes a preview shouldn't be shown.
Or do you mean encrypting the PDF document causes the document to initially appear blank? Is it still blank once you close it, reopen it and provide the password?
Maybe some steps of what you are doing so it can be replicated by others to try out, too.

Why are my PDF's from iphoto blank?

In the last two days, when I want to turn work from pages into a PDF, the files seem to save but are blank when I try to view them. Why?

Why are my PDF's from iphoto blank?
work from pages into a PDF
First you need to figure out what app you are actually using.

Firefox will show PDF's but prints blank pages. Other browsers are fine, safe mode has no effect.

Currently on an HP laptop, Win8, printing to a HP Color Laser, no previous problems; all of a sudden, PDF's are printing blank pages. I can see the page fine. Safe mode without any addons has no change. I printed my taxes out and had no problems.
I've used IE (shudder) an been able to print PDF's fine. I have no PDF software itself on the computer, just using the browsers native support. EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. Searching shows problems loading PDF's, but my problem is printing PDF's. Using version 29 of Firefox. Anyone got any tips or clues how to hunt this down? Really close to introducing my computer to Mr. sledgehammer.

Thanks, appreciate the links for PDF driver add ons, this will be my last resort if nobody else can figure it out. I don't use Acrobat because of all their bloatware and hidden installs. I still would like to know why Firefox started printing blank pages in PDF's, but can still open the PDF's, very frustrating. Seems like a few other people are having the issue as well.

Why does my hp photosmart 7520 prints blank pages

Why does my HP Photosmart 7520 print blank pages?

Sorry to ask an obvious question - but are you putting the paper in the right way? I have a 7520, and as long as there is ink in it, and the paper is facing the correct way, and I hear the print job go to the printer, it prints fine.
Are you hearing the pringing attempting to print?

Why does an e-mail PDF open as black blank page?

I received an e-mail with a PDF attached; when I click on it, it opens briefly to show a legitimate page, then "dissolves" into total black and I can't get pages to show again. I have an i-mac running OSX-5 without intel. It seems this happened after I upgraded; since I could not locate system requirements, I assumed that the automatic notification made the automatic download "safe". Would really like to view the attachment on this computer. Also, the PDF switches to Safari rather than Adobe to open the document. In fact, I notice that as I write, this is in Safari, rather than the Adobe Web site where I started. Perhaps someone can help me clean up my operation. Should I trash the Adobe presently running and go to a lower number? I currently am using Adobe 9. I am also not particularly computer smart, so please be patient with me.

Hi
It shows just 4 always as an option in the "open with" lsit. Also I haven't downloaded any apps for a while so why would it start now?
Do you know how I can estabilsh how many apps are counting toward this 10 and what they are?

Why are my photos now appearing in very low resolution?

What happened to my sharp and clear photos? Why are my photos now very low resolution with a progress image appearing as a circle on the photo and filling in 1/4 of the circle. Why are the photos very low resolution copies that look like crap? Where are the good sharp photos I took?

Latest iOS on iPad Air in photos. It appears server was slow. Progress bar circle now filling in complete circle and resolution is good. Why do I have to download my photos from iCloud i have plenty of memory space on my ipad ? Same with movies and music I purchased. I bought extra physical
memory when I purchased my iPad so I could view my stuff regardless of whether I had a wifi connection...apparently not.

Why is Conversion Log now appearing on my desktop?

Why is "Conversion Log" document now appearing on my desktop along with the "Console" icon?

No. It isn't. Thanks - but even I am not that inept on my Macs.
It reappears whenever I log in, sometimes after a decent delay to lull me into believing I have 'sorted' it.
It isn't a problem, it is just irritating. See above. The irony.

My downloads and documents are now attached as blank pages .

Only happened recently
Recipients have complained that the attachments are blank.
They have all been succesfully downloaded or saved but appear as 0.1 kb on the e mail.
Any advice?

Performing OCR text recognition in all pages of a PDF document which has blank pages

The PDF pages in the file are scanned as an image, but there are blank pages also. So, page 1, 2 have images of scanned text, page 3 is blank, pages 4, 5, have images of scanned text, page 6 is blank and so on.The series of blank pages is 3, 6, 9....
I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro version 9 on Windows XP. I choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->All pages. But, the OCR stops after page 2.
Then, I go to page 4 and find that it is still an image(and I cannot copy the text from it). So, then I have to choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->All pages. But, the OCR stops after page 6.
The document has some 200 pages and I don't want to manually do the choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->All pages for all pages which have text.
I also tried choose the Document option in menu, OCR Text recognition->Recognize text using OCR->Page 1 to page 200, but that too does not work.
I can manually go to each blank page, delete it, then do the OCR but that would be tedious.
1. Am I missing something in doing the OCR of all pages?
2. Can I set up a batch process to do the delete of blank page series or can I set up a batch process which does OCR of all pages(and does not stop at a blank page) as it is doing now?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hm, you could convert every pdf-page to a image file (jpeg, etc.):
-install the package imagemagick
-use the command convert
convert -trim -density 150 your.pdf your.jpg
This will generate a jpg-file for every pdf-page; "-trim" removes the white margins, density specifies the resolution of the page (you could also try "-resize" instead of "-density") and 150 specifies amount of dots per inch.
This does not generate a new pdf-file, but maybe there is a way to convert the images back into a single pdf?

Trouble with Adobe Reader Touch on Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 in tablet mode. Pdf shows up as blank pages.

I have a Lenovo Yoga Pro 2 and when I change it to tablet mode and use the Adobe Reader Touch app, my pdf shows up as a blank page. I have installed other pdfs in the past and those show up fine. However, as of three days ago, whatever pdf I install shows up as blank on my screen. Is there a solution to fix this?

Could you please share your test file?

Certain PDF files only print blank pages

I recently upgraded to Adobe Pro 9 Windows. Everything was great until I received a couple pdf files by email this morning that I needed to print and sign. All other pdf files on my computer print fine. These two pdf files go to the printer but only print out blank pages. Any thoughts?

My printer light blinks like it's receiving something, but then never prints. The light stops blinking and the printer icon in the corner goes away like it thinks it printed.
I'm puzzled too. I've never not been able to print a PDF file. I've also never worked so hard to do so! Frustrating to say the least.
Each page printed as an image (the only way it will print at all) takes about 2-3 minutes to print ... EACH PAGE. Ugh. A real time waster for sure.

135 page pdf will print mainly blank pages

Previously my HP 7410 would print these large documents fine. Now it mainly prints blank pages. It will print 10 pages OK but not any greater number of pages of the document. I am running XP on a Dell desktop with a Linksys router for a laptop. I get the same result whether I print from the desktop or laptop. Please help.

It could be a memory issue. How much free space do you have on your hard drive? How much RAM does your printer have? What happens if you try to print as image. Have you tried changing your print mode? Some printers have a fine mode and a draft mode.

New foxfire. now printer prints blank pages

recent firefox update. Now cannon printer only prints blank pages for e-mail files.

Simple start would be to see if you can print in another browser like Internet Explorer or Google Chrome, then we can identify that it is the Firefox update that caused this issue

Interactive PDF with buttons printing blank pages

Hi
I am creating interactive pdf's using indesign cs6 on MAC which have buttons that show and hide other buttons when clicked, i have checked printable for all of the buttons as i want the buttons to be visable when printed.
When i export it everything is fine and all works well and when i print the document from the MAC it prints fine but when i come to print it from the PC it prints blank pages. This is a issue as these documents will be printed from a PC, I have tried different PC's to see if it was mine that wasnt working but the result is the same, printing blanks.
Is there any way to overcome this problem?
Best Regards
Rob

On the Mac go to File>Export and choose pdf like you normally do.
With the pdf settings that work make sure you click the "Save Preset" button.
Exit out of the PDF export dialog box and go to
File>PDF Presets
And Define them
From here select your Preset that you just saved and Save it to the hard drive.
Load this PDF Preset into the PC settings.

Jim,
I see that you posted this twice, it actually is easier for us if you just post the issue once... Thanks.. now on to your problem.
When you say that these portlets work, you are calling them directly from the Apache listener right?
http://myapache.mydomain.com/jpdk/snoop/snoop.jsp
So, you have NO portlets displayed on a portal page?
Everytime I have gotten a blank page, I was using Netscape. In Netscape, I would need to view the page source to view any errors. In IE, it seems to display the errros on the page.
Can you try to view the page source and scroll toward the bottom and see what the browser may say is the problem. This is usually better than what is stated in the jserv.log file.
It may say that it cannot find the jsp or something. They you would first check the provider.xml to make sure that you are pointing them to the correct directory. Then bounce the listener.
Can you check the view page source and tell us what that says?
thanks,
Sue
