Won't convert PM7 to PDF

I have a document in PageMaker7 that I want to convert to a PDF. I used to be able to do this. I chose Export, Adobe PDF. The PDF options screen pops up. I don't change any of the default settings and click on Export and name the file to save. It begins running the conversion then pops up Distiller screen which says: Could not open file (says the file name.pdf). File may be in use. It is not in use and it doesn't matter what I try to name it! I click on Ok and a PageMaker screen pops us stating: Can not send Post Script to Distiller. I click on Ok and it sends me back to the Export screen. Do I need to re-install Distiller or all of PageMaker or how can I fix this?

I've had this problem from time to time for four years -- finally figured out a solution.
If you take the PM doc you're trying to PDF out of the folder that it's in and put it on your desktop. Then open it and PDF, it should work. It's been the solution for me. I set the distiller to 'ebook'. that's the only other thing I play with.
I can put the PM doc *back* into the folder it came from and the distiller will fail to produce a postscript file for which it gives me an error message. Take the PM out and put onto the desktop....no problem, it PDFs right away.
Haven't gotten around to creating a new folder and trying to put it in there. Long as it works this easily, I'm fine.

Acrobat XI Pro Won't Convert 206 Page Word Document into PDF

Hi there
As menetioned above, Acrobat XI Pro Won't Convert my 206 Page Word Document into a PDF. The Word document was originally a PDF file that I converted to Word and it has split all the text into sections.
It sounds like converting a PDF into Word isn't the best way to edit, re-format and then save as a PDF again. I would love to hear your advice on this.
Thanks very much for your help!
Fiona

First before you recreate the PDF from the Word Document.
In word: Open Document
Next open a new Blank docment
switch back to Word click on the ¶ button
scroll to of go to very end of docment.
click just to right of the perion in the last sentence.
now go to very beginning of document
Hold down the Shift and click to the right of first letter in document.
Now choose copy.
Now switch to Blank document
Choose Paste special.
Now choose Text only.
If works all the words will be there spaced correct but with no ¶'s.
Now insert returns as desired.
Now save as a docx file under a different name.
IF you are on a Mac use the following directions:
go to File menu > Print > PDF Hold down PDF button until Context menu pops up.
Choose adobe PDF.
follow steps when the first window opens.
Save as PDF in desired location.
Now open the PDF in Acrobat. Document should be properly formatted and ready to go.
AS you've found The conversion is not seamless. Acrobat doesn't distingish between automatic end of line breaks and Returns and you have to put the pieces back again. I wish Adobe and MS would get over the jealouscy of each other and share howcode works so Thatapplications could work seamlessly together. BUt they never will.

I used to use the free version of Adobe Reader to convert my publisher files to pdf files. When I was making a booklet for our hockey team, it said I had to buy it. Now I bought it and it won't convert the files. I am ready to throw this computer out the window!! Can you tell me what is the problem? No it does not exceed 100 M. either.

Adobe Reader never converted Publisher files to PDF, for free, never. I suspect you use to have the (paid for) Adobe Acrobat. Sometimes people have Acrobat (more than $300 worth) and install Adobe Reader over the top, losing that valuable software.
That said, if you subscribed to PDF Pack it should do this conversion. What exactly happens now.

Adobe X PDF files converted to jpg, edited and converted back to PDF have ragged, unclear text. I didn't have this problem with Acrobat 9 standard. What is the remedy for this. If this is the best I can expect, I won't be able to use X standard.

I can't imagine any worse workflow than converting to JPEG to edit text, then back to PDF. Text in a PDF is a vector thing, smooth at all resolutions. And JPEG is made for photos. EVERY conversion to JPEG and back loses quality but how much loss there is will vary.
If you must go to an image format, try PNG.

Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro won't convert Publisher docs to PDF

Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro won't convert Publisher docs to PDF. It converts other Microsoft docs. Any suggestions?

How are you trying to convert?
Are you using the File-Print function, and selecting the Acrobat printer?

I have a Word doc that I previously converted to PDF. I made updates and now it won't convert. Just gives me an unexpected error message. This happened after a Windows update so it could be related but some other docs have converted with no problem.

What would cause this document to suddenly not convert to PDF?

To all those having trouble converting documents to pdfs, I did some research and found a work around.
Go to File and choose Save & Send. Then choose Create PDF/XPS document. Click the Create button. PDF is generated.

Docs won't convert to .pdf

WIN XP Home; WordPerfect Office 12; Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard; HP Deskjet 722C - do all my doc work in WP12; have been able to convert docs to .pdf with no problems (Print, choose Adobe printer, go); today, however, for whtever reason when attempting to do such conversion from any doc in WP12, Acrobat is snitty and tells me that there is a problem with the doc(s); attempting to convert from within Acrobat results in the same. So, anyone able to tell me which gremlin(s) I need to kill to get this to work correctly again? Have already uninstalled/reinstalled Acrobat; didn't change anything. Any help much appreciated. Thanks

The log info is typically only 10 lines or so. If so, post it here as there are some folks who are pretty good at reading them. Sometimes I can catch the jist. Often the problem is a font that is not found or is not allowed for embedding. If that is the case, you can try to disable the button on the font menu of the Job Settings that causes the job to fail if the font issue comes up. The font would be wrong in the resultant PDF, but the file would be created. It might be something to check.
You really do not have to do the extra step of printing to file, but generally the log file is written in the folder where the PDF was to do if conversion fails and you can open it separately.

When converting a document to PDF, it won't convert my landscape format !

In Microsoft, when I convert a document that's in landscape format to a PDF, it converts in portrait format. In the PDF I open print, select orientation and/or page setup, change the format but all the text does'nt change back to landscape. How do I get my original format when converting to a PDF ?

This isn't the proper forum for that. This is for the free Reader application which does not convert files to PDF.
Depending on what you actually use to convert to PDF, you may need a Microsoft forum or the Adobe Acrobat forum.

Pre-configure save location for converting files to PDF from shell context menu

Hi all,
I like Acrobat's integration into the Windows Explorer through the shell context menu command "Convert to PDF", which allows me to drag select a number of files (word documents et cetera) to batch convert them into PDF. It beats doing batch processing fr the Acrobat interface.
However, it asks me for the save location of each file individually. I would like to have them saved in the same directory as the original file, as the default option so I won't have to attend to the conversion. I can't find such an option in Acrobat's preferences menu though
Any gurus or users here know of a way around that?
Regards,
Jay

Does your user have custom add-ons besides the Acrobat PDFMaker add-on? If so, try disabling the other add-ons as a test to see if you get the same results.
Does your user have a custom template? Try moving it out and using the standard MS Word template as test?
Did your user have a previous installation of Adobe Acrobat?? If so, check the Add-ons to see if an older version is still registered with MS Word.

Hi Karen Tennyson,
May I know is this happening with all files or with a specific file?
Would you send your PDF document to [email protected] as an email attachment?
I will check it from my end.Please add the link to this forum post for reference.

Hi Prashant,
Thanks for your reply. Really it is very useful one.
In this, the output list is getting populated into spool and to pdf.
But my requirement sending the internal table contents to spool directly without dispalying in the output list.
I did the program like the above mentioned one already. But my requirement is not that one.

Converting report to PDF and mailing

Hi every one,
I've gone through various threads and i'm aware of the Functional module's used to
convert the report to pdf and mail it back.Like CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF, CONVERT_OTF_2_PDF and for mailing we have SEND_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1.
I've worked with this but my problem is i'm not able to convet the report output to pdf.When i'm doing this i'm getting the output of my functional module converted to pdf like the number of header and item records available for the given data in the selection screen.
Since all the threads i've gone through is converting the single internal table which has the output to pdf.
But i've got the REUSE_ALV_HIERSQL_LIST_DISPLAY, hierarchial report which as known has got two internal tables.How to the same to this kind of report....More over is it possible to convert report to pdf in online without transfering it to spool and getting the spool id to convert it to pdf.........
Any help or suggestions will surely be rewarded......
Thanks in Advance.....

Here is the complete code for you;

this generates spool in SP01. Ideally it should generate a PDF spool file but it generates a BIN file of Format G_RAW. When I display the spool it displays all kinds of japanese characters which does not make sense,.
I setup printer ISJB with device type JPPDF (PDF converted for Japanese characters). Does any one know where the problem could be? Why I could not print the Spool in PDF?
Thank you,
