Convert Word doc to PDF - problem with section breaks

I have Adobe Acrobat Pro (constant rejection of 2015) on my Macbook Pro (OS Yosemite 10.10.5) and I use Word for Mac 2011. I write a lot of long documents and often insert section breaks if I can change the orientation of the page from portrait to landscape and back, etc... When I convert Word documents to a part of the PDF document is PDF - ed up to first page redirecting.  He drives me crazy because in order for the entire document to convert, I break up of my word document in separate documents according to portrait or landscape mode and then convert each into a PDF file separately and combine them and then at the end.  It causes no end of trouble with numbers of page and headers, and feet.

This happened to someone else?

Does anyone have a solution?

I would be grateful for any help.  I'm about to write another very long report containing pages of different orientation, and I'd rather be able to PDF in a go.  Thank you.

Hi wendym79499885,

In Word, open the file you want to create a PDF file, click file > print and select Adobe PDF as the printer.

Click Properties in the print dialog box make sure you have the selections you want.

Back on the Print Setup dialog box, leave the paper and Orientation as a letter and Portrait respectively.

In the print dialog box, select print to file and navigate to the correct location. Be sure to save as a PostScript (name.ps) file and the safe field book both, you want only selected file.

Once again on the print dialogue box book, click on the checkbox to generate data Adobe and click Configuration of PDF. On the PDF configuration for the selected files dialog box, PDF job options, select print quality or make the choice for your situation for settings, Favorites, Tags, and links.

With Adobe Distiller open, file > open and find the .ps file you previously reported. Also check that your default settings for the PDF file are correct. When the Distiller is finished, you can double-click the PDF to open it and check your landscape and portrait pages display correctly.

I would like to know if it works for you.

Kind regards

Meenakshi

    Set the printer default for printer Adobe PDF before converting to PDF. Word Repagine documents when you change printers. If your default printer is not the Adobe PDF printer, then when the printer goes temporarily to the printer pdf for conversion you will see the change in the pagination.

  • Convert a MS WORD doc in PDF format

    I need to convert a MS WORD doc into a PDF file and the PDF must be grayscale and fonts must be embedded.

    I have Adobe Creative Suite 4.

    Can someone tell me the detailed steps for how best to achieve this.

    I'm not technical and I am not familiar with the Adobe programs since I just got them so please could you

    explain that if a child because I don't understand technical jargon is.

    Sorry to be a pain.

    OK, I missed that.

    You may need to convert images to grayscale before making the PDF file.

    To do this, double-click on a graphic image and in the Format of the image window, click on the 'Image' tab and under color, select 'Gray levels', then click OK.

    I hope that you have not hundreds of graphics in this file.

    Using the method I described in my post of first going to embed fonts.

  • A single hyperlink without link convert Word doc

    Hello

    I forgot to mention in my title, I use RoboHelp 2015 and publication of WebHelp.

    I have a project where my first topic provides a list of the tasks that can be performed from the main screen. I create WebHelp and Word to convert to pdf format. When I convert the RoboHelp project to the printed Document, there is an article on a bulleted list that does not convert to a hyperlink element in the Word doc. The other 15 elements convert. The WebHelp project works very well.

    I deleted the topic to the table of contents and replaced it; I made sure the links work and connect to the correct subjects. I tested the links in the HR project and they work fine. As I say, all others 15 links work very well in HR and in Word.

    Any suggestions on what I should look for?

    Thank you

    MDawn

    The version of RoboHelp and your output at the beginning of the post, rather than in the title is fine. In fact, preferred.

    Is it a project that you can share? See the Contact page on my site and send the project, in accordance with the instructions, it. Make sure that include you a link to this topic and please send an e-mail not directly project.

    If this isn't the case, then the list pointing to other topics which are all in the same project and is the subject of the list point to the printed output? The fact that it is in the webhelp does not automatically mean that it is in the printed output.

  • Is it possible to convert Word documents to PDF in Acrobat without automatically sent to a printer?

    Is it possible to convert a Word document to PDF in Acrobat unless it is automatically sent to a printer?

    Basically the creation of PDF to WORD process requires WORD must be installed and PDF Maker is active. Without this option, you need to open WORD and print it on the Adobe PDF printer. Open Office is the way to create the PDF as suggested. You can even use convert to PDF in Open Office (or MS WORD with the later converter for OFFICE 2007 and versions).

  • Convert Word Doc-rich text file

    Scanned document using the ABBYYOCR program, which saves the file in rich text. I need to get it in Word doc format. Does anyone know how to do this. I managed, but it took 20 steps to do this, which means that it is faster to retype the document.

    Thank you very much

    Alex

    Hi Alex,

    Follow these steps:

    (a) run Microsoft Word.

    (b) open the RTF (Rich Text File) document in word.

    (c) click on the "File" menu

    (d) choose "save under" and make sure "Word Document" is selected in the box "save under".

    (e) enter the name of the file you want or leave as is. This will keep the name of the RTF document, but convert to Word format.

    (f) click "Save".

  • BlackBerry Smartphones anyone have problems with sections of your screen?

    Even if there are some problems with the operating system as has been noted by several previous discussions, I am satisfied my storm because of its hardware capabilities and am willing to be patient as RIM solves problems in software.  The problem I have is that the left side of the bottom of my screen does not feel the same clicking positive like the rest of the screen.  I spoke with someone at a local verizon store and they explained that it is common and that there nothing wrong with mine, or at least that there was no different than most.  I also checked the demos of two storms they had on display and both units seemed to have a defect similar to the screen.  Storm of my wife, however, is perfect, with the same positive feeling by clicking on parts of the screen.  I would not be concerned with it except that when I type in the lower-left corner of the screen I have errors or reduces typing speed because of the absence of "click".  Finally, my question is can I Exchange it for another and hope that the following better, or just simply keep in mine because it's like most of the units and get a perfect as my wife is the luck of the draw?  Thank you

    Your screen should click systematically everywhere like your wives Storm.  Basically, the problem with your phone by clicking on not everywhere is a tight screw or screws.  When you remove the cover of your battery, you will notice two torx screws.  We'll have a red and white sticker underneath the battery and the other on the opposite side will not.  If you have a torx T-6 screwdriver you can correct this problem by turning the screw or screw to the left to unscrew the screws.  You can try half of the towers at a time and test your screen to ensure uniformity to click after each turn to don't not to loosen the screws too.  Here is a link that has been posted on crackberry dot com that others have used this procedure to correct their screen by clicking on the problem: http://forums.crackberry.com/f86/screen-click-problem-fixed-using-different-method-109036/

    If your Storm is perfect except the screen click problem, I suggest trying the fix published previously.  If you feel uncomfortable, try this, I will ask a new device that clicks on evenly all over the way it should be.

  • How to generate a printed document with section breaks "continuous" compared with section breaks "next page"?

    When generating a Word or PDF document from HTML Help files a section break 'next page' is used after each topic. How can I get a "continuous" instead of section break?

    I was searching a little more. Here's the deal.

    New chapters will always start on a new page and have an odd or next page break depending on the parameter to start new chapters. If checked, it will be a jump of odd Page, else a Next Page break.

    Subjects of a book will follow the topic of every throw on a framework for the new Page. If checked, each topic is separated by a page break, not a section break. Otherwise, they will be on the same page without any break.

    Subjects not in a book will be followed by a section break.

    So the section breaks are only created for chapters and topics not in a chapter.

    Hope that helps. Please report if you find otherwise.

  • FDK: Problem with line breaks / carriage returns

    Hello


    I met a strange problem with strings when you use the FrameMaker API. We have a FAPI customer who translated documents FM reading in their content, by replacing their text by the new translated text and in return the change in writing.

    However, I found that some strings are starting with a \r (carriage return) character, when we read in and when we write their return, they begin with \r\n, which moves text to the bottom line, and can break things as references etc. I don't know exactly why this is happening, we are using Visual C++ and we do a lot of conversions between classes CString and StringT types so maybe this conversion process are to do.

    To be honest, I find the appearance of newlines and carriage returns in the frame channels somewhat odd frame API breaks up the text of a paragraph into fragments for you anyway, so I would have thought that the use of these characters is redundant. That's a big assumption however so correct me if I'm wrong.

    We have implemented a work around by which our program strips newlines off channels before writing their return

    but in reality, what we really need to undress returns to the main line of strings, before starts the printable text in a string.

    I wonder what others have to say about this WRT its security approach. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks

    Eric

    Eric,

    I did a little greater experimentation, based on my previous comments (sorry, should have done that before I clicked on the Post before.)  When I programmatically add a \r one paragraph, I don't see no effect in page layout. This is consistent with my suspicions so far. I really think that, maybe, these characters are misleading and should be removed from the beginning.
