Why do PDF-linked files on my website appear off center when opened?

I have created a website (not yet published) in which I have linked some PDF files. When I view these files in preview mode, the file pages all appear off center, i.e. they are positioned to the right on the page with a wide, blank margin on the left. This only occurs when I view them in Mozilla Firefox, not in other browsers such as Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. What might be causing this and how can I rectify it?

hmm are you using the builtin PDF viewer (PDF.js), refer to here to go back to the regular Adobe Acrobat PDF viewer.

  • Why is my PDF printing off center when I have the landscape box checked?

    I am having some trouble with printing my pdf's. I have several PDF's that are oriented in landscape orientation. In the past, they printed normally in landscape mode or autoportrait/landscape mode. Now they print fine in autoportrait/landscape mode, but print off center when printed in landscape mode. The reason this is a problem, is I have given instructions to 100's of my buyers for printing in "landscape mode"....have heard from one buyer already today with this printing problem. I  was then able to reproduce the problem on my own printer.  Is this a recent Adobe update and if so will it be fixed any time soon? Or is there something I have unknowingly done to my printer setting and this buyer has done the same? Thank you in advance for your help.

    This is happening when I have the "actual size" box checked  (the scaling box is not checked). Also, the printable area is centered on the page in the original documents. I have printed all of these pdf's in the past with the landscape box checked and have never had this happen.

  • Exported pdfs - Linked file not dispalying correctly on some machines

    Hi,
    I'm creating several PDFs in InDesign CS5.5. I'm creating links to different files in InDesign using buttons. The pdf links work correctly on all machines and open the file theyre supposed to. I run into a problem on some machines though. The first page of the newly opened pdf opens completely gray... nothing displayed. If you hit page down and then page up, page two displays fine, and page one then appears fine from that point on. On some machines it's a little slow to display, and goes from gray to displaying the page in about one second.
    Does anyone know why this would be happening, and how to fix it?
    They are created on a mac, and the problem is present on some macs, but not others, and seems fine on PC. It's also worth pointing out that it isn't the speed/power of the machine, because the older less powerful machines have no problems with it.

    How are these files being viewed?

  • Problem opening online PDF link/file

    Every time I try to open a PDF link, I get an error message saying it's not opening because it's either not a supported file type or it's damaged. I have tried opening it with Google chrome and Mozilla Firefox to no avail. I also considered whether or not I had the wrong Adobe Reader version but I believe it's up-to-date. If anyone could shed some light on this issue, I'd be very grateful.

    Hi Gilad and Pat!
    Your suggestions were helpful and it's worked for some of the files that were not opening but the 'application form' which is the most important one is still not working.

  • Quicktime opening PDF link files on the web

    Since updating to Tiger when I click on a PDF file on the web Quicktime opens it but only shows the first page and I see no method to go to next page. I have overcome this by right clicking on a link and downloading file and right clicking to open with Adobe. I have checked quicktime preferences and clicked off anything with PDF file type. This happens with either Camino or Firefox.
    How do I eliminate quicktime from opening PDF links?
    How do I open files automatically with either Adobe or Preview?
    Thanks

    1. Select a PDF file in the Finder.
    2. Select File->Get Info (or Command-I keystroke)
    3. Expand Open with section of the Get Info window.
    4. Select the application you would like the PDF to
    open with.
    5. Click the Change All button have all PDF open with
    your selected application.
    Good luck,
    TK
    TK Thanks for your response.
    I had already done what you are suggesting and it resulted in any PDF documents in my computer opening directly with Adobe. However with Camino or firefox clicking on a PDF web link Quicktime opens it with the same results mentioned. I have Acrobat reader 7.0.5 and Adobe PDF viewer plugin 7.0.9
    I don't know why the plugin isn't activated.

  • I am asked to select an app each time I attempt to open a linked file via a website. How do I tell firefox to use the same app every time?

    I have a website; www.designed4submariners.com. On several pages, I have created links to images which are located in a upload file folder. Each time I click on one of those links on the active website (using Firefox as browser), a dialog box appears asking me: What should Firefox do with this file? Beneath the question is a pull down menu which has "TextEdit (defualt)" selected next to a radio button. The image file will open in a browser window when I select Firefox from that pull down menu. I can not tell Firefox to open all similar files using Firefox. How can I resolve this issue as I must go through the same process each time I attempt to open one of those links.

    Your response identifies the issue exactly! My website is hosted by GoDaddy. I have forwarded your linked information to their tech department. The URL below my signature is the site having the problem I've outlined when attempting to access linked images.

  • Why are InDesign text frames uneditable, or converted to outlined objects, when opened in CS4?

    When opening a CS3 Layout in CS4 to make client text changes, all the text frame box edges (on their appropriate layers) are shown as dotted lines, and none of the type is editable!
    I restored the old version, and opened in CS3 old version, and the same thing applies! Arggggh - there must be a frame preference that I don't know about or an instruction accidentally given.
    How do I convert the text boxes back to editable regions? Got a deadline and am miffed.
    I am a 20 year veteran of Pagemaker/Indesign/CS and this has never happened to me before!

    Dotted lines for frame edges means that the item is on the Master Page. That’s why you can’t edit items, because they are on the Master, not on the numbered page. Either Command-Shift-click on the object to edit it or edit it on the Master Page. You should find out why so much of the document was built on the Master Page. Either the designer meant this to be a template for multiple existing or future pages, or someone just wasn’t paying attention and didn’t realize they were designing on the Master.

  • Ai file turned into DXF doesnt transfer correctly when opened in CAM software.

    Hi please can anyone help.  I am trying to create a DXF which can be used with CAM software.  The file looks fine in Ai and even CAD software but loses all definition, turning into a black blob, when opened in CAM software.  There are shapes within the outline which need cutting out and the DXF file shows intersections where these are.  Are these intersections part of the problem?  Thank you very much!

    Think I might have just fingered it out on my own!

  • Aperture wont op "To use this library, make sure its file permissions are set correctly." error when opening aperture 3.4.5 library.

    Have been using fine up until Wednesday this week and suddenly cannot open file at all.
    I have around 10K images on drive but file size for library says 0bytes. When I use Alt to open it shows file and shows correct number of versions and originals but then gives the  error re permissions when trying to open.
    Have tried the repaire permissions, repair database and rebuild database all give same error about permissions and fail to start.
    HELP!
    Regards
    James.

    I think I set it to keep the images in the library not referenced but the drive did contain many pictures before I started using Aperture so i need to bring them into the library.
    How large is your library now, and how much space can you afford for your Aperture library on your internal drive?
    Or do you have a second exernal drive, that you could format MacOS Extended (journaled) to be able to temporarily host your Aperture library?
    Do you need the "Tuxera NTFS" formatting on your external drive to share image files with other systems, or would it be an option to reformat that drive?
    If you are more comfortable with a managed ibrary, by all means keep the library managed. Only it needs to be on a drive formtated MacOS X Extended (Journaled). It could be your inernal drive, if you have enough space or a locally connected external drive. Connect it to the fastest port you have; Firewire, or Thnderbolt, a fast USB port.
    Move the library there, then import the images, that you now have in separate folders on your externa drive. To prevent Aperture from importing duplicates, enable the option "Do not import Duplicates" in the import panel. If you are lucky, Aperture will recognize many of the duplicates. if you have not changed the filenames.
    I have to sign off for the next couple of hours, but will look in later.

  • If I click on a .pdf link on a site or mail, infinite blank windows open, all the while downloading pdf.part files. How do I stop this action?

    It does not matter what or where the .pdf is, so it is not a result of a particular website, rather it is a fault in Firefox. It just started in the last week.

    Could you check your PDF handling setting in the Preferences dialog.
    Firefox menu > Preferences > Applications
    Allow several seconds for Firefox to load the list, then type pdf in the search box above the list to quickly filter it. What do you have here? If you modify it to use a different viewer (such as Preview), does that help?

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
