CS5 - crashing on save AIs in PDF... forward-looking solution

Hello everyone, hope you can help me...

For our daily use, I didn't need to convert a PDF file of our *.ai files since I received the update to Illustrator CS4 CS5 but now as I do whenever I want to save a file as a PDF the program crashes immediately - I even do not reach the savings options dialog more.

As a roundabout, I am obliged to copy my ways to InDesign and then export the data in PDF format which works as expected - but this isn't a long-term solution of course.

Save you aware of this problem?

My rig:


I7 860

8 GB ram

Quadro FX 580 (assimilates the Geforce 9500 GT)

Windows 7 Professional 6

Adobe Designer Suite CS5 update

You could also log in as a new user to see if the problem goes away then ill you know it's a corrupt user account and you might be able to identify the problem.

BTW in the trash your preferences

1. quit Illustrator.
2. rename the AIPrefs file (for example, to AIPrefs.old) user / AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings(user)folder.
3. launch Illustrator. Illustrator creates a new preferences file.

Also you can clean your font cache files.

  • Illustrator CS5 will not save to PDF

    My first post.

    Running HAVE CS5.5. All of a sudden, when I "save under" in pdf format, the pdf content is not saved. On the contrary, when the file is opened, the document said: «this is an Adobe Illustrator file that has been saved without content PDF.» To place or open the file in other applications, it should be re-recorded to HAVE with the 'Create PDF Compatible file' option turned on. This option is in the Format Options native Illustrator dialogue bos, which appers when you save an Adobe Illustrator file by using the Save as command. »

    I understand that say these directions and I can do it like that, but it is impossible to open the file by a person without I.

    It's used to work so easily! Save slot, choose pdf in the drop down menu, it adds .pdf for the file name, in fact!

    Can someone tell me what does this change? Two days ago it worked fine, and I would not change anything (knowingly).

    I read a couple of them where the problem has been resolved with a reboot. Have you tried? Also, did you get the same results when using save a copy?

  • CS5 crashes when you try to print

    Note: I tried that before sending.  Don't go through.

    -------------------------------------------------

    According to the web, this issue has been beaten to death.

    Still no solution as far as I can tell.

    I tried to reload CS5 disk, new drivers for the printer, delete preference files,... literally every suggestion on the web has been tried.

    If I click on "Print a copy", it works fine.

    The moment I click Print in 'Print,' CS5 crashes.

    Before continuing, let me just say, I do not use Photoshop as part of my work.  Perhaps, I use it 3 or 4 times a year to clean a photo before printing it and hanging on my wall.  All this 'Creative cloud' would be a waste of money for me.

    By-the-way, is another software that does what the old Photoshop and now enjoys?

    Is it not possible to, say, put in a dialogue box that actually says: what is the problem instead of leaving CS5 crash?

    Go in your System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General and check allow applications downloaded on: Anywhere.

    Install the 12.0.4 update

    Then put the security settings to where they were.

  • Why my calculations do not record to get a fillable PDF on-screen, but they work before I save/export fillable PDF on the screen?

    I tried several different ways to create a PDF with calculations for my business. When I put the calculations and the guidelines, everything works as an automatic calculation, until I have save/export the PDF file. I tried to save without clicking on the "locked" button and clicking on the "locked" button, but it made no difference. I find myself always with the same result: a PDF file without automatic calculations.

    Check the order of calculation.

  • Can't "Save as Adobe PDF" from the word

    This week, the "Save as Adobe PDF" option has disappeared from my file menu of Word 2013. When I check the supplements, it shows that "Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Addin" is inactive. I am able to turn it back on, but once I close and re-open Word, it is disabled. Any suggestions on how to recover this option? I use Adobe Creative Cloud and Word 2013 on a PC, if that matters. Thank you!

    Hey JennieKeen,

    Could you please let me know how you tried to disable Acrobat PDFMaker Addin.

    You may need to open Word and click on file > Options > Add-Ins and select COM Add-ins under manage label.

    Then, choose Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Add-in in the new dialog box that appears, and then click OK.

    Have you done the same?

    Let me know please.

    Kind regards

  • InDesign cs5 crashes whenever I try to change the mark formatting via Type > reference Option Document or paragraph using the span columns Styles

    InDesign cs5 crashes whenever I try to change the formatting mark by going to the Type > Document reference Option > and then I try to choose a paragraph style, I already put in place. I need to use the paragraph style includes columns of Span, which I think may be the issue. I think this because when I then tried to create a new document and re - import styles, it won't let me even the columns of the span feature is added the paragraph in question Style.

    I can send screenshots at all (for example, dialog boxes) if it would be helpful to understand the question, I'll have.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
