Word file save as PDF cut off on right side. How do I fix it?

I saved a Word file in PDF. When it opens in Preview, the end of the lines on the right side are cut off. How do I restore the text to full size?

Sounds like the dialog is off screen. You can try to reset the Preferences by using Cmd-Opt-Shift on restarting AI. That might bring it back to the current screen.

"Save as PDF" - pages truncated - whole right side missing

When using "Save as PDF", the resulting image has the right margins truncated.
The right margins are cropped off so document is displayed in very large characters (although I'm in 80 %) and the whole right side of the page is non-existent.
Problem occurs with Firefox 3.6.14 in my main account.
When creating a test account, problem disappear.
I tried to ditch all Adobe Acrobat preferences and Firefox Profiles.
No avail.
Problem never occur in Safari 5.03
In my second machine (Mac Book Pro), the problem does not occur.

Yes, Acrobat is my default viewer so far.
Until a few days ago, when I "Save as Pdf" from the printing menu,
I had a regular PDF created from the web page I was in.
Since a few days, I have that clipped unusable page.
When doing the same in Safaru, no problem at all.
That bug has several occurrences from other users in Mozilla forums.
There is also one instance in this Apple Discussions forum.
No reply though.
In Preferences, I only found Page Display and don't see nothing related
to Page Setup. I only find Page Layout which is set on Automatic. Any other setup don't change anything.
When using the same feature ion my Mac Book Pro, same Firefox, same everything, no proiblem at all. So it's related to pref in my iMac and I don't know what because I didn't change anything recently. Really annoying because I need that feature very often.

I go to my email page and on the right side of the page is the login icon but I cant get to it its just off to the side

This issue can be caused by the Babylon Toolbar extension
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Text is cut off on right side in Mail

Sometimes when typing an email on my iPhone 5s, iOS 7.0.2, the right side of the message field becomes invisible when holding the phone in the horizontal position. I can see the insertion bar move to the right as I type, and the email message will line wrap normally to the next line where I can again see the text as I type until the insertion bar gets about 3/4 of the way to the right side of the page where the text again becomes invisible. If I turn the phone vertically all of the text becomes visible. If I turn it horizontally again the text on the right side of the email becomes invisible again.
To explain it another way, imagine as you type with the iPhone in the horizontal position, when your cursor gets about 3/4 of the way to the right side of the page, the letters you are typing become invisible. When the text wraps to the next line it becomes visible again until the cursor once again gets about 3/4 of the way to the right side of the page where the text becomes invisible. If you turn the phone to the vertical orientation all of the text is visible. Turn it horizontal and the right side of the page becomes invisible again.
Is anybody else having this problem?

I'm having this problem as well. Has anyone else seen this and do you know of a fix for it?

Exporting to PDF cutting off right side of the page.

I am exporting a Crystal Report to PDF. This works perfect on our development and staging server. However, on the production server the PDF is cut off on the right. Like, instead of being 8.5" wide, it looks to be about 7.5" wide? It just cut off the right side of the PDF. Very weird. Republished the site but did not change anything.
But here's the odd part. We have another Crystal Report on the production server that exports to PDF just fine. Just this one report, "invoice2.rpt", is having issues. "invoice2.rpt" was originally copied from "invoice.rpt" so all of the settings (that I have looked at) are exactly the same. This report was formatted a little differently than the original.
Does anyone have any thoughts about what might be causing this to happen?
Thanks,
Randy

Hi Randy,
I have seen a similar issue in the past and the problem was due to the fact that some fields and or objects were placed in part or completely outside of the margins of the report. This can be checked opening the report from Crystal Reports > Design view.
I would suggest opening the report from Crystal Reports, select the option 'No printer' from File menu>Page setup and double-check that the report has been created inside the report margins (From Design View, the report space should be white except if the background colour has been modified).
If this does not help, please clarify if the issue is faced from Crystal Reports or from Business Objects Enterprise/Crystal Reports Server and the version you are using.
Thank you,
Selenia

HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus, printing from web cuts everything off on right side

Hello,
I am having a problem with my HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus cutting of everything ont he right-hand side of my pages when i print anything from the internet.
I am currently using Windows 7 and I am printing from Firefox.
I use Gmail and anything I print from there does the same thing. I see on several other posts here that they tell people to go to the File menu and choose preferences, but when printing from Gmail, I do not see anywhere that has a drop-down File menu to choose from. I also see several people saying to choose landscape orientation to print, however it still cuts off the right side when I choose the landscape option.
When I print from Gmail I am just hitting the printer icon on the upper right corner of the email itself (when you put your mouse over the icon it says "print all"), or I click on the drop-down menu under that icon and choose "print".
When I am trying to print some web pages, I can hit the download arrow to the right of the google search box and then print the downloaded page instead. This usually corrects the problem, but sometimes when I try to download a page, it says there is nothing to download.
Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated!!
Thank you,
Steel

Hi @steel13
Since the issue only occurs when you print from Firefox, I feel it would be most beneficial if you reach out to Mozilla.
You might first consider resetting Firefox print settings; Fix printing problems in Firefox.
Best of luck.

I have a word document that I have put hyperlinks in and turned into a pdf. When I email and receiver opens in iPad the document is blank. When I do a file save as pdf the document appears and the hyperlinks work but the document has much of the content

I have a word document that I have put hyperlinks in and turned into a pdf. When I email and receiver opens in iPad the document is blank. When I do a file save as pdf the document appears and the hyperlinks work but the document has much of the content turned into symbols. What is going wrong?

You select the printer properties and set the appropriate page size (I think there is a place to set it in PDF Maker too, but not sure). In the printer, this is equivalent to putting the proper paper in the printer.

Way to save MS Word file as a PDF with original MS Word file date?

For archiving purposes, I'm betting PDFs will be readable (backwards compatible) long after my current file saved in Microsoft Word becomes out of date. Anyone know of a way I can save my Word file as a PDF while retaining the original Word file last-modified date (for patent protection reasons to prove date of authorship)? (or Word to text file or ASCII file would also be equivalent as long as original date is kept)

I doubt that a computer date would suffice for legal proof of date. It is easily changed for those that know their way around the computer. I would have to play a bit, but could probably do it without too much trouble. About the only way to satisfy the need for a patent is to properly insert the pages in a patent notebook and get the information notorized. From what I have seen, the legal profession generally requires hard copy, not a computer file. A loose-leaf form is also typically not acceptable, but a bound notebook properly annotated. The notorized aspect is a way around some of this I think. In any case, it sounds like you need to consult a patent attorney.

I would like to cut and paste information from a word file onto a pdf file, as well as draw lines onto the pdf file. How can I accomplish that task? Is there software I can purchase?

Hi jgallu7382,
The latter is easily accomplished using the Drawing Markup tools, which are available in both the free Adobe Reader, and in Acrobat. Copying/pasting text into the PDF is something that you could do using the editing tools that are available only in Acrobat. Note, however, that Acrobat isn't intended to be a text-editing application, so editing there won't be as robust as in an application designed specifically for that purpose. (It's also worth mentioning that you won't be able to alter a PDF if it has document permissions applied that would prevent you from doing so.)
I hope that answers your questions.
Best,
Sara

Printing to pdf gives improper formatting (page is cut off on one side)

Safari 7.0.5 on Mavericks 10.9.4: printing to pdf gives improper formatting (page is cut off on one side). Any suggestions?

I am trying to print from Safari. The problem happens without respect to the zoom level, as I have tried many times with several different web pages, from fully zoomed in to fully zoomed out. It also happens without respect to whether I use the print option (and then specify to print to pdf) or use File>Export to pdf...
Irritating, as the "save as... "option is not foolproof either.
Any thoughts?

PDF cutting off right side

When I save an MS Word document to PDF - the right side of the page is cut off... How can I stop that from happening?

You'll probably want to ask in an MS forum. It's their product being used to create the PDF.

How to maintain original lines when converting a word file in a PDF

Unfortunately the table lines often change when converting a word file in a PDF, e.g. dotted/broken lines into straight lines or different kinds of broken lines. How can I maintain the original lines when converting the documents?
Many thanks in advance for your advice.
Li Li

Hello,
Ok, this is the background.
I’m a publisher. Any document to end user will go as pdf. And off course it preserves the word appearance. We ship our manuals only in pdf. At this point my end users have to copy the “CODES” into his editor to run the product. So when doing it, the “Codes” copied from pdf to his editor loses its format. Editor need not be the actual one; you can also test in a notepad.
P.S: You can find the difference by copying the code from word to notepad and pdf to notepad
Hope you now understood the purpose what I’m looking at for.
