Why when I am converting a word doc into a PDF are some of the pages moving around. It appears to be

Why when I am converting a 50 page word doc into a PDF using Acrobat XI Pro the pages are moving around.
It appears to be happening in the places where the previous page is not a complete full page, just a half page.
It is moving these pages up into the previous half page, but it is only moving them several lines into that page
Which has totally distored my e-book.
It is attaching all my pattern sheets at the very end of the file okay, etc.

Also, to be more sure you get in the PDF what you are seeing in WORD, go to the print menu and select the Adobe PDF printer, then go back to editing. The is a feature of almost all word processors to reflow the document for best results with the attached printer. It is also one of the problems of using WORD forms that such form designers miss. If you don't like the reflow, many the Adobe PDF printer your default and always print to Acrobat. If you want it to go to a printer, then print from Acrobat to that printer and it should remain intact. The other way to avoid the reflow is to use a layout program like Publisher or InDesign.

    Hit command tab and swtich to the Finder, under the Apple menu is Force Quit, do that to the program that is causing your "hang" and restart the program and what you were doing.
    If you didn't save your file beforehand, then your going to have to make it again.

  • Convert MS Word (.doc) document to pdf document

    Hi All,
    My requirement is that I need to convert MS Word (.doc) document to pdf document.
    Is there any standard SAP function module.
    Pls guide me.
    Rishi

    I dont understand why you want to use SAP to convert word file to PDF file.
    1. Search in google
    2. www.win2pdf.com - this may be useful
    Still if you want to use SAP to do that then follow the below procedure.
       1. Upload the data from word to internal table using the function module : GUI_UPLOAD.
       2. Use spool :
                  1) RSPO_OPEN_SPOOLREQUEST - Open spool request
                  2) RSPO_WRITE_SPOOLREQUEST - Write to spool request
                  3) RSPO_CLOSE_SPOOLREQUEST - Close spool request
       3. use the function module CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF to convert spool in to PDF format.

  • Garbled text after inserting a converted MS Word Doc into PDF

    I am on a PC running XP professional using Word 2003 and Acrobat Pro v.8.
    I successfully converted a variety of MS Office (Word, Excel,PowerPoint) documents into Acrobat Pro v8 PDF files. I then took all of these individually converted PDF files and merged into one large PDF file.
    As stated, I verified that the documents converted successfully to individual PDF files, but when merging the files into one PDF file, some of the headers and/or text in the body contains garbled/scrambled text.
    This is a massive project and I am pushing 300 pages. Does anyone have any suggestions to solve this problem. I have tried converting them through Word and Acrobat Pro with no luck.
    Thank you,
    Chad

    After much tinkering around, I have finally solved the issue of the garbled text upon insertion of a converted file into a PDF file:
    1. In Word, click on the Adobe PDF tab
    2. click "change conversion settings"
    3. click on Settings tab (may be default tab)
    4. put a check in the box that says "PDF/A-1a; 2005 compliant file"
    5. click ok
    6. convert to PDF file
    7. inserted converted PDF file into another PDF
    I confirmed that my file now converts properly and there is no garbled text!
    I do not know what "PDF/A-1a; 2005 compliant file" is, but it worked!

    when I i port a word doc into pages it throws the format out and I cant adjust it?

    Pease don't say the "latest" that doesn't tell us anything.
    People are always getting it wrong.
    Tell us the actual version number:
    Menu > Pages > About Pages
    Can you select the footer? And what is in the footer?
    Sometimes Word has these things in separte textboxes under other things and you need to lassoo them to get rid of them.

    Are you using the same email address that you use here in the forums? That's how I looked up your account, and saw that you have a active subscription. You should be able to sign in with that email address and the associated password.

  • How can I convert a word file into a pdf and then upload to a web site?

    I need to convert a word document into a pdf and then upload it to a web site so people can read it from my
    site. How can I do this? Can anyone please help? I'm only a newbie. Thanking you in anticipation.

    Hi there,
    There's actually an easy streamlined way to do this using Acrobat.com. Here are the steps:
    1. Log in to Acrobat.com with your Adobe ID.
    2. On the left, you'll see a navigation menu that includes the item "Import and Edit". Click that.
    3. Choose the .doc (Word) file you want to convert and upload it to Buzzword.
    4. After making sure that it looks the way you want it to, go to the top menu (still in Buzzword now, not the organizer where all your files live) and click the document menu. There will be an option to "Export" - choose that.
    5. When prompted to select filetype, choose "Adobe PDF" and press OK.
    6. It'll save to your desktop, so now you have to get it into your acrobat.com organizer. To do that, close the Buzzword document by clicking the little "x" in the upper right corner, under the Sign Out button. This'll get you back to your organizer, where you can choose "Import" from the left nav menu again. This time choose your new PDF file.
    7. Select the  file icon in the organizer and click the Share button. Or, select Share  from the file context menu.
    8. Select Allow Anyone With A  Link To Share This Document to set the document to open access, and then  click Copy Embed Code. The necessary HTML code to embed the preview is  copied onto the clipboard.
    9. Open the HTML file and paste  the code into the file. The Flash previewer can display any file type  that you can convert to PDF.
    Hope this helps! Good luck, and let us know how it works out.

  • How do I convert a word document into a pdf and then upload it to a web site

    How do I convert a word document into a pdf and then upload it to a web site so people can read it from my
    site with Dreamweaver 4?. How can I do this? Can anyone please help? I'm only a newbie. Thanking you in anticipation.

    First you need to install a means of printing to pdf from word.  I like cutepdf writer ( http://cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp ).  Once installed you will print the doc in word and under the printer selection you choose pdf.
    Once you have the file you put it in your local site folders and upload it using Dreamweaver.  Be sure to link to it from a page so users can get to it and I would recommend giving the link a target of _black so it will open in a new window (see the properties inspector in DW).

  • I am having issues converting my word file into a pdf.

    I am having issues converting my word file into a pdf. When I attempt the conversion the pdf download has text boxes overlapping each other. The word file does not have overlapping text boxes. I believe it is the margins of my word file but I am not certain. How can I accurately edit my word file then convert it into a pdf without the overlapping issue occuring?

    Hi,
    Please send me your Word file so that I can look into the issue using below:

    Hi wertheca,
    If you have Acrobat, (full version), you can convert a file to PDF by choosing File > Create > PDF from File. Then you choose your Word document, and click Open to convert the file to PDF.
    If you don't have Acrobat, you can use an Acrobat online services subscription to convert almost any format of file to a PDF with just a click or two. For more information, see Acrobat Plus, PDF Pack, Export PDF & More | Acrobat Document Solutions
    I hope this helps.

  • When converting a Word doc to a PDF the pictures are surrounded by a blue shadowed boxes

    I started off with a PDF, then converted to a Word doc, made necessary changes, and converted back to a new PDF.  However, the new PDF has put blue colored boxes around all the pictures.  Anyone know how to fix?

    I am using Adobe Acrobat X Pro on a workstation using Windows 7.
    I have converted docs this way many times before, but for some reason it does not seem to complete the process about 50% of the time these days.
