• Warning of macro when creating PDF

  Windows 7, Word 2007, Acrobat X Pro.

  Using Acrobat to convert a MS Word Doc to PDF, I get the message: "the macros in this project are disabled.  Please consult the online help or the documentation for the host application to determine how to enable macros.  I would like to find a way to stop this Message from VB that appear each time that convert us a MS Word file to PDF format.

  I did a lot of research and I'm pretty sure that this problem is caused by the fact that Acrobat 10 called Microsoft Word during the conversion process. The right way, that this should have been done was to call MS Word using the security settings of the user (i.e. the Macros turned on in my case). However, I think Acrobat called MS Word with the option/m that disables security. That's why users see the pop-up message of Visual Basic (MS Word process).

  I checked this to some extent by running the Acrobat "Combine files into a single PDF file" function and watched the Windows Task Manager. A version of the Winword.exe process is loaded. The Visual Basic Message box appears. The message box is the word, as shown in the taskbar as part of MS Word. After you click OK, the message box disappears and the Winword.exe process dies. Then, the file is converted to PDF.

  MS Word provides a way to work around this message by changing the security settings for macros.  However, I have my MS Word Macro defined security settings on "enable all Macros", yet this message when the conversion of any Word file that contains a VB Macro (using Acrobat X to make the conversion).  This indicates to me that Acrobat is not through my MS Word settings using the /m option.

  This should really be fixed by Adobe. They should start MS Word without the /m option or, more generally, allowing users (not Acrobat) set their parameters to macros in MS Word.  In my case, we use the macros to build our many MS Word files, but don't need macros in the final PDF file.  So I am very well with macros not having not in the final product, but cannot process the messages popup (of the hundreds of pop ups).

  What is - this popup such a fight?

  Since our team combines 80 to 120 in one Word files only book PDF, it is a big problem. The hope is that we could put all the word files in the Acrobat Combinator, start the conversion, and ignore 30 minutes because it converts and creates a single book. But now, users must sit there and continually press the 'OK' button until the process is done.  Waste of resources and time for my business and making the juggler Acrobat useless function.

  Acrobat you added to the list of publishers in Word list? Here is some information from MicroSoft on the procedure to follow:

• Jumps to Page Excel reset when creating PDF

  I have a spreadsheet in Excel 2007 I have page breaks set as I want.  Although, when I create a PDF with Adobe Pro it changes the page break settings and removes a column to another page.  What can I do to prevent page breaks change when I create the pdf file?  Thanks in advance.

  This is because the size of the page you are printing on is different from what you have in Excel.  Try to change the size of the page when you print, or to bring Adobe default PDF and see what Excel page breaks look like then.

  Assuming that you are talking about Adobe Acrobat 7 Standard, it is far from being compatible with Windows 7, if problems are to be expected.

  The first version which has been is 9.2, if I remember correctly.

• How will I know when a PDF doc was created originally that there is nothing under file/properties

  How will I know when a PDF doc was created originally that there is nothing under file/properties

  Hi David,

  Generally, it appears in the document properties window in Acrobat (as illustrated in the following snapshot).

  However, if the sender/author has deleted the pdf metadata then there are chances that original file creation date is not displayed.

• I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create > pdf from a scanner, it shows an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is it possible that I can use this feature?

  I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create > pdf from a scanner, it shows an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is it possible that I can use this feature?

  Providing you have Acrobat 9 installed in an operating system for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the feature.

  So, you need a scanner connected, turned on, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefer" TWAIN drivers.

  Always visit the site of the provider of the Analyzer and download - install the latest version of the greatest software.

  n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family moved in the middle of the "End of Support" year 2013.

  Thus, the family of products Acrobat 9.x is not compatible with contemporary operating systems.

  Be well...

• When you create PDF from WORD 2010 files, can't do the TOC header as hyperlinks entries

  When you create PDF from WORD 2010 files, I can't have the TOC header as hyperlinks entries. I'm used to be able to do this in WORD 2003. I tried to create a PDF file in Acrobat by selecting file > create PDF > navigate to the WORD file > select three check boxes >

  Try to do this from Word by using the Ribbon.

• Is it possible to keep the custom metatags when you create PDF from Word 2007 files?

  Does anyone know a way to have custom metadata attached to a Word 2007 document to be completed in the course of an Adobe PDF file? The "Save as PDF or XPS ' in Word 2007 command clears all custom metatags that you have attached to the Word doc as PDF file has metadata cleaned up when you open it in Acrobat X.

  However, in Word 2010, you can incorporate the MetaTags in the doc properties, create the PDF file using the Save as PDF, and the metatags are stored in the PDF file. So far, I have not found a way to do the same thing in Word 2007. (I know it is possible to add the metatags in Acrobat after the creation of the PDF file, but we are looking for a way to provide a Microsoft Word template that has the MetaTags already integrated, so colleagues by using Word 2007 can create PDFs that include our metadata.)

  Thanks for any help you can offer.

  Using check-in PDF or XPS does not use Adobe technology. You must use the Acrobat Ribbon to create PDFs using Acrobat technology (or print to Acrobat that does save all metadata).

• My mind is wiped out. I'll put up pages in Photoshop 9.0 to be then placed in InDesign 4.0 for professional printing. Can you help me configure the proper color settings, and what PDF preset to use. And output parameters, etc. Thanx.

  My mind is wiped out. I'll implement the color pages in Photoshop 9.0 to be then placed in InDesign 4.0 for commercial printing in book form. Can you help me with the settings of color in Photoshop, that is to incorporate the color profile; convert in space work, Adobe RGB, etc. and which PDF preset to use, i.e. printing, PDF / X - 1 or 3, etc. Also, what I have to select the output settings such as the conversion of colors with the Destination or the printer deals with that. I know I asked a lot, so thanks in advance for any input or advice.

  Best regards, ScottyB34

  What are the settings of your printer wants? Some may deal with sRGB some want Adobe RGB Ctrl/Cmd-Shift-k in Photoshop, then choose North Amercian prepress 2

  He'll take care of the tags for you, or if sRGB is important, Norh American General Purpose 2.

  Here is a summary of the settings PDF and their meaning:

  When you are ready to create a PDF file from an application such as Illustrator or InDesign Adobe, we give you a list of the predefined PDF settings from which to choose. Well how do you decide which is the right choice? Well, let me explain what they do.

  Let's start with the smallest file size and the name of the type of the story. It is compatible with Acrobat 6, which means that anyone who has Reader or Acrobat 6 or above will be able to open the file. Now it converts everything in sRGB color which is a common space for color monitor.

  All RGB is truncated to sRGB, CMYK and spot colors also. So that means if you have a job to print, you can see some color shifts in this outgoing PDF. You must decide whether it is acceptable. He can't stand live transparency, not flattened. It downsize image content to 100 pixels per inch and this is part of how she made a reduced file size. It also uses aggressive JPEG compression of poor quality on the content of the image. So, you can see some of these rectangular JPEG artifacts.

  But it is how it gives you a reduced file size, and results are appropriate to be posted online or attached to an email.

  High quality printing has compatibility with Acrobat 5 and above. There is no color conversion. RGB RGB stays, rest spot, stays of CMYK CMYK spot and it supports live, not flattened transparency. It does not perform some downsampling to 300 pixels per inch. So, for example, if you placed an image which was 300 ppi and then set to scale up to 50 percent there actually a res then 600 pixels per inch.

  Well, this process would take half out these pixels. Therefore, it can create larger files but that makes it suitable for in the House of printing or sending Let's say a remote office if they want to print we tell cells leaves, or brochures, or something like. It's beautiful out on an internal printer.

  Print quality and high quality printing have similar names, so this may be a bit confusing, but print quality has compatibility with Acrobat 5 or higher. It converts the content of RGB to CMYK destination values according to what you specify as the destination.

  It is usually SWOP, S-W-O-p. It supports live, not flattened transparency. It performs the subsampling bicubic to 300 pixels per inch and because that it keeps at least 300 pixels per inch, which means that it can create some large files, but it is suitable for professional printing.

  Then we start to get into the presets named 'X '. 'X' is now for Exchange. They agree on specifications and the idea is to have a set of specifications if a PDF file is compliant to these specifications, we know it's going to be printable.

  We know that imaging devices are going to treat them properly. So this goes back to 2001, and which can seem a bit old, but bear with me. PDF/X-1 has a compatibility with Acrobat 4. I know, it sounds old. It converts RGB to CMYK content, it keeps the content of good tones. It flattens transparency. Downsize it at 300 pixels per inch. It can large enough crat files if you have large size images in your project and that it is suitable for professional printing.

  The idea behind X-1 is if you send a PDF file to an unknown printer, you do not know what are their capabilities, you send abroad, it will be able to be photographed on any device. No matter the age, it is, they can print. Over the years, the concepts of Exchange became more sophisticated the workflow and devices become more sophisticated.

  SP PDF / X-3: 2002, remains compatible with Acrobat 4 and that means that it flattens transparency, but it does not perform any color conversion.

  This means that it maintains RGB content, place remains in place, rest of CMYK CMYK. He still performed bicubic downsampling at 300 pixels per inch, and therefore, it can create large files. But this is suitable for commercial printing, if the printer signals you that it is present RGB content is correct.

  PDF / X-4: 2008 is compatible with Acrobat 7 and later. See, we're getting more modern. No color conversion. RGB RGB stays, stays CMYK CMYK, spot rest spot and it supports live, not flattened transparency.

  He still performs bicubic downsampling. Therefore, it can create large files because it maintains the pieces of the image to 300 pixels per inch or higher and it is suitable for commercial printing, as long as the printer tells you that RGB content is not serious and dynamic transparency is acceptable. Some older workflow does not support dynamic transparency, or they treat well, and that's why always ask. It is a special case in Illustrator, something called default Illustrator. Its compatibility is Acrobat 6 or higher.

  It does not perform the color conversion, everything continues like this. It supports transparency live, not flattened, and it also contains the original, editable Illustrator file in the PDF file. It preserves layers and it may be return, can be reopened safely in Illustrator and it's really the only PDF format you can do with safely. But it can create larger files, because you sort of two files for the price of one, they sometimes get huge.

  So what predefined PDF is Right For You? Well, if you want to send for printing, the first thing you should do is to ask your printer how they want the created PDF.

  They should be able to give you the plug for the creation of the PDF file. They may be able to give you job options files you can simply import and use as your preset target. But if it's a stranger the printer or the printer for some reason any said, well, I don't know, just make a PDF and this happens, well, choose the lowest common denominator to the PDF/X-1 test. Anyone can image that. If it is a more modern printer and up to date, especially if you send it to someone who uses digital presses, PDF/X-4 should be safe.

  I always go back to point one, ask the printer. If you send it as an attachment or you're going to post online, well, smaller size of file is a pretty clear choice. But remember this, you can start with one of these predefined parameters, and you can always edit it to customize your specific needs. So get to know the presets, understand the destiny of the PDF you create, and then make the best PDF that you can.

• Create PDFs from MS Word documents with DWG files embedded

  
  Using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, I regularly create PDF documents from MS Word documents with AutoCAD DWG files embedded.  If I print to PDF it is well with integrated designs but if I use the plugin Acrobat text in the drawings would then become too light to see in the created PDF file.  I need to be able to convert to PDF format rather than print them in PDF format in order to have the bookmarks and links created automatically.  What parameters control the darkness of drawings ACAD contained in MS Word files when they are converted to PDF files?

  Here are some screenshots from the built-in drawings prints/changed:

  

  Convert:

  

  This problem was caused by the use of dynamic blocks with several line colors and thicknesses in the original DWG files.  They were used to allow the quick creation of drawings in AutoCAD for several different components that share similar attributes.  Unfortunately when these drawings are incorporated in MS Word or PDF files is created directly from these drawings, items in the drawing would randomly disappear when a PDF file created from them.  The solution is to open each offending in AutoCAD DWG file, move everything to layer zero and set the thickness of the text elements.
