Why won't a pdf convert it's images to a docx file?

I really need to be able to convert images from pdfs into docx files, how can I make this work?

When you do the Save As to Word format and select the Settings... button in the dialog is the Include Images checkbox selected?

Why won't LR 3 load all the images in a cataloged file?

When I try to open a folder or collection of images (in Library, grid view), some of the images load right away, others take several seconds, and some never load. Instead I see gray boxes, albeit with the proper DSC number in the upper right corner of each. I'm using LR 3.6 on Windows 7.

Hi Bob,
The question is: where are your previews stored?
Normally, without applying some hack, they are next to the catalog.
On my windows7-system that is by default in
C:\Users\[your username]\Pictures\Lightroom, a folder named "[your LR4-Catalog name] Previews.lrdata".
So the previews should always be online.
It may be that LR4 was not complete in building the previews when you closed it last time ?
Otherwise I share your puzzlement. So I would render all standard previews for your entire catalog and then expect that it should not happen again...
Becaues that is the beauty of a complete set of previews: I can do all sort of LR-work apart from Develop while the images themselves are offline - something I would never want to miss!

Why won't some pdf-files open on tablet/phone?

I simply get the error saying: The document cannot be opened because it's not a valid pdf-document.
However I have no problems opening the file with my laptop, only my phone and tablet (Jellybean 4.2.2) won't open it.
My friends also have managed to open the file on their tablets (android/windows).
Have reinstalled and checked updates and tried other programs but none has worked for me.
I simply have no clue and would appreciate help.

Hey,
Seems like the problem was in the web browser I was using, as the file just
didn't download correctly.
Thanks for the help anyway, much appreciated.

Hey,
spent some time discussing this with some friends of mine and found out
that the document can be opened by downloading it to the computer and
transferring then to the tablet or phone. The difference is that when
downloading with tablet/phone I get a .pdf file, which only has some html
code. So I guess the problem has something to do with the encryption of the
file. Here are the 2 different files I get as attachments. After all this
might not have anything to do with adobe, but some other stuff I don't
really understand.

Why won't Lightroom 4.4 import my Nikon D7000 NEF RAW files?

Why won't Lightroom 4.4 import my Nikon D7000 NEF RAW files?

It's not a "wrong" error message - it's true, as far as it goes, and it's completely unrealistic to expect error messages to be fully diagnostic - they're a starting point.
Not wrong?
Let us have a look at the error message:
"The following files were not imported because they could not be read"
This clearly gives the user the impression that there is a reading error where you want to copy the files from. Is that the actual error?
No, the actual error is that the file could not be written at the destination.
It is possible that it is not factually wrong because Lightroom first make a failed copying attempt without giving an error message, then still assumes that the files have been copied and tries to import them, and THEN makes a failed import attempt from the destination and gives the error message. But that would never be anyone's first guess when they experience that error message.
A much better error message would be: "The following files were not imported because they could not be copied to the destination folder."

Why won't my pdf resume upload?

I am applying for a job that requires me to upload a resume in either pdf or rft formats as part of the online application. I designed and wrote my resume in Word (2003, SP3), opened Adobe Acrobat Pro (9.1.3), used the "Create" function to turn my Word file into a pdf, embedded the fonts, saved the pdf...then...on the employer's website, I received an error message when I tried to upload my pdf file (see copy of message below). After several tries on different computers, I finally spoke to a real person at this company who said my resume had too much formatting...they only have Version 8 (I assume that's Reader, not Acrobat), and I should remove some of the formatting and re-try. By the way, this person told me that the company has already received OVER 500 resumes successfully uploaded.
After many versions of my resume still would not upload, I completely stripped my resume. No bold, no underline, no tables, no columns, Tahoma font in 3 different sizes. This time, I saved the file as a Word Document and as in Rich Text Format, and converted both to pdf. Resume looks lousy...but at least it would upload. No such luck!!!! I got the same error message that I had received with all the formatting. Last night, I tried to upload the files using a friend's computer. I could open my pdf file in his Adobe Reader...no problem. Tried to upload...same error message. Finally decided to try uploading the rtf file. Worked perfectly, first try.
Although my rtf was successful, I would like to know why the pdf wouldn't upload. I assume if I can actually get the pdf upload to work, I'll be able to use at least some formatting to improve the look of my resume. I also have to upload Recommendation Letters, all of which are in pdf format.
Here is the error message. I very much appreciate your help!!

Yoiu might try using Reduce File Size or the PDF Optimizer to save the PDF to an earlier version, like AA5 or AA6. Then try the upload. It may be that they are not allowing for newer versions of PDFs. Also be sure you have not used any fancy features of Acrobat in the PDF. I would create the PDF by printing to the Adobe PDF printer from WORD and not using PDF Maker. All of these steps should create a simpler PDF that may be what they are looking for.

Why won't Photoshop PDF's read well on iPads?

At first, I thought it was specifically Safari on iPad that would not display vector data (such as text) from PDF's created with Photoshop CS6.
Then I installed Chrome on my iPad and got the same problem. Displays all the pixel data, but none of the vector (text).
Is this a known issue?
I am referring to PDF's created via Photoshop CS6's "Save As" at regular unmodified/default settings. The iPad is the most recent iPad 4. The Safari and Chrome versions are the latest as well.

Everything is default settings. So whatever the default is, that's the answer to your questions.
Please note, the PDF file has no problems opening anywhere else, including computers that don't have the font being used. So it's being properly translated.
In fact, if it was a missing font issue, the text would still be displayed, only in a different font. I'm saying NONE of the vector info is being displayed, only the pixel backgrounds.
You wrote that is not what is happening on you iOS system. You have used two browsers apples and googles and their PDF plugins and they do not seem to be working like you PC or Mac computers. The plugin operrate in iOS did you try iBook. The Web files served up by the Web servers are the same unless there is special HTML code that detect that your on a iOS moble device. If that code exist on the server may serve up something different for your iOS device then it does for you computers.
I do not know how to configure Chrome on an iOS device does not seem to exist. On your PC or Mac in the Crome address bar enter about:plugins you will see that PDF are handled by

Why won't the PDF open from Webhelp

So... I am using RH10 to generate Webhelp. I am on Windows 7.
That said, I have a very small test project I am building for a presentation today. I have placed a special icon in my help that has an attached PDF file. The purpose is to have the user click the icon to display the PDF (also a very small file). However, I have tried setting it up as a hyperlink and via image map... and set it to open in a "new window". When I rollover the icon with the mouse, it changes to the hand cursor as if it knows it's hyperlinked. But, when I click or double click on the icon nothing happens.
What have I missed? HELP! This is due this afternoon for a meeting!

Thanks Rick for your response... but boy... are you gonna be sorry! [?]
Unfortunately, things have gone from bad to worse... so here's what's
happening (or rather not happening).. even after making the security
setting as you state... and it's happening with chrome as well.. and yes..
I'm running it locally... we have to be able to run it locally for folks
that will be trying to access it without internet access... so here's the
full situation as it stands now:
IN WEBHELP:
1) PDF still isn't opening (it is set to open in New Window)
2) the video link i have to a quick vid on youtube IS working
3) the TOC, Index, and Search options aren't working - the nav pane is
showing up on the left, but it's empty.. and the search field is there, but
not working.
4) Image maps aren't working if set to go to a bookmark on the same page.
If the map is set to link to a different page it works fine... Just not if
the flag is on the same page (in dropdown text).
IN A CHM:
I tried generating a chm to see if the same issues occurred... here's what
happens:
1) PDF still isn't opening (it is set to open in New Window)
2) the video link i have to a quick vid on youtube IS working
3) the TOC, and Search options DO work, but Instead of an Index tab,
there's a Favorites tab and I can't see where I've missed setting the Index
up.
4) Image maps work to go to a bookmark on the same page (altho they don't
work to actually open the dropdown text where the bookmark resides - but
I'll take what I can get.
I'm having a hard time breaking habits set from working in Flare for over 5
years.... but I'm trying to remember and cover all bases, but I am
obviously missing SOMETHING!
Am I being too blonde or what?
THANKS!

AA8 and Win7 Home Edition - why won't Adobe PDF Printer work?

Was running AA8 on my XP Pro laptop. Installed AA8 on my netbook running Win7 Home Edition. Can't print to Adobe PDF printer - well, the reality is that the system tells me it's printing, but it never opens Acrobat or Reader to ask me where I may want to file the PDF file! Troubleshooter tells me that I'm missing the AdobePDF.dll file and that it's on "the Windows Vista CD-ROM". Unfiortunately I've never had such a CD nor have I ever used Vista. How can I get AA8 to work on my netbook?

As suggested by the link, you are likely running a 64-bit system. You have to have at least AA8.1 for 64-bit systems. If you have just installed, you are likely running 8.0. Simply open Acrobat and go to Help>Updates and request the updates in order until they are all applied and then reboot. Also, be sure that AcroTray is running in the background (ctrl-alt-del and check the task list. Enter ESC to return or just close the window).

Why won't my playlists convert from aac to mp3

Hi,
Never had to use the forum before as I've always previosuly been able to figure most stuff out that I needed to do, but I recently converted my whole music library from AAC format to MP3 (so that I can burn an MP3 disc to play in my car) with no problem using the "Advanced" tab and "Convert to MP3 format" tab.
(I've also changed my settings now so that all downloads are set to MP3 as well to stop this happening ever again!.)
However, I then tried to do the same for my playlists, but it just doesn't work for those using the "Convert to MP3 format" facility - even though it doers actually give the impression of doing so. i.e. It appears to be converting the songs and I even get a confimation tone when it's suppossedly finished converting the playlist, but the playlist still shows it's "Kind" as AAC, and hasn't converted it at all!
The only way that I can find to do it is to delete the playlist (after printing out a copy of the playlist) and then manually re-creating the whole playlist again by dragging each song individually from the library! Which I obviously don't really want to do as I've got a lot of playlists and that would be very laborious and would quite frankly be a ridiclous thing to have to do again (especially after doing it already for the library).
Am I missing something here, expecting too much or just being thick?? Any one have a solution for this please?

Thank you, absolutely brilliant, I knew there had to be an easier way to do this!!! And also thank you so much for the really quick response too!
It took me less than a minute to do this for the first playlist and I'll now easily be able to do the same for all the other playlists - saving me potentially hours if I'd had to do it using the other way.
In case anyone is unaware, there is one further little tip once you have converted the playlist from AAC to MP3 and sorted by "Date Added". Press and hold Shift, then highlight (the first song) and scroll to the last song (which will then highlight all the songs that you've just converted) and then simply drag them to a new playlist - voila, job done!

Why does my vector illustration convert to an image in illustrator CS6

Hi, there
I am experienced something that really shocked me!
I have done an artwork and hit save, when I reopened my file, my illustration has converted to image, the amazing thing is: just very few part of my illstration has covert to image. I didn't resterize any of my illustration and I have done all my illustration in one file, the rest of my illustrations are fine but two illustration which are in the clipping mask are now images....can any pro help me here!? Much appreciated...

Hi, Mike
Thanks for ur reply,
The original file is ai format , there is no embedded item in the palette, and I've drag it from a server to my desktop when I edited that file so I was saving it on my desktop.
I have checked the original file (which is on a server ) again. It's ai format and doesn't seem to be changed the format from .pdf into .ai.( as there is no reason to do it….)
I was wondering that if it better to deselect save with .pdf compatible with every .ai file / and if with a possibility that it could damaged the .pdf half, why does adobe make this option into default? What does .pdf compatible help?
Sorry about having lots of questions……

Why won't iPhoto '11 display CR2 tags for Canon 7D raw files

iPhoto '11 won't display CR2 tags for the raw files from my Canon 7D. I didn't have any problem with my Rebel ST or any previous version of iPhoto.
Any help to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Allan

What a pity you didn't make the clear in your initial post. Would have saved us both some time.
It might also help to clarify some terminology. What you are calling the "image file number" is the Title of the photo. When you haven't added a tite, iPhoto uses the filename.
You can easily sort Raws from jpegs as Raws are automatically tagged with a keyword on import. So a quick smart album will tell them apart.
As to why it hasn't been fixed, you will have to ask Apple that question, no one here knows and Apple aren't here.

Why won't photoshop let me save my images that I edit?

I have photoshop CS6 and am on a Mac. The photos that I am trying to edit are ones that I have taken and uploaded but everytime I try to save them after editing, I get this message, "the file is locked, you do not have necessary access permissions, or another program is using the file." Why? There is no other program using the file, I am the only one who has permission. I drag the lock icon into the trash but that doesn't do anything. How do I fix this?

Photoshop is just reporting an error that the OS returned.
Yes, there is a problem with permissions, or another application is using the file (which can include the Finder, due to some bugs in the Finder).
You will have to troubleshoot the directory to make sure you have permission to save there, and double check that no other application is using the file.

Why won't Final Cut Pro import layers in PSD or TIFF files?

I'm trying to import layers that were created as EPS files. I converted them into PSD and TIFF files in Photoshop CS6. FCP is rejecting the PSD files and flattening the the TIFFs. Help!

Perfect. I changed the mode to RGB and it worked. I had already confirmed the layers were all rasterized. Thank you for your help.

Why won't the new preview open single images?

I have been using preview to investigate screen shots I've been taking. The problem is preview is opening every single file I've viewed with it when I open it. I take a lot of screenshots.
How do I get image preview to open JUST the image I told it to open? How do I make it stop opening multiple images at once when I don't ask it to?

Have you been quitting (CMD + Q) the application when you're done looking at the images without closing each window? I noticed this same behaviour and made it go away by closing windows prior to quitting Preview. Same goes for other applications such as Quicktime or Safari.
If you want to prevent this from happening in every app you can change it in the General Preferences in your System Preferences.
