  • InDesign crash when exporting PDF

    I'm trying to export a PDF of high quality for my editor. It is an Indesign book with 14 chapters. I exported it several times before for the preview. It always crashes on the same page; every time. I tried to change the illustrations on this page of AI to PDF. Same thing.

    More funny is that when I export the chapter separately, it works very well.  What else could be that originally is this book to stop smoking to be exported on the same page every time?

    If you are able to export into pieces (as in chapter only exports), but not all together, it is more likely is a problem of system resources. It sometimes works to close ID and reopen, then perform export as the first operation. You can also combine PDF files into one file using Acrobat.

  • Cs6 InDesign crashes when exporting objects with shadows in interactive PDF format

    I use the trial version of InDesign CS6 on a mac OSX 10.7.4 that I need to export my document as an interactive PDF. I found that the export works very well as long as none of the objects in my document were a shadow. However, if I add a shadow to any object (text, images or video) InDesign will crash when I try to export. I'm adding the shadow by selecting the object and choosing object > Effects > drop shadow. Is there another method I should use to add shade if I want to export to an interactive PDF?

  • InDesign CS6 crashing when exporting to PDF (not problem of fonts)

    I tried to export my PDF with all the different types of settings. It is only an 8-page document. It has about 15 jpg low resolution in it. I used a font Adobe stock. There are several hyperlinks in the file, but for most it is just text. I have no idea how to solve this problem. And of course, I need it to work tomorrow. I get a message saying error it is the overlay text on 3 of 8 pages, but I don't think it's something that could cause this problem. Any ideas? Thank you!

  • InDesign CS4 crashes when exporting to PDF

    Try to export a file from InDesign CS4 to PDF. That's always worked before but one file won't work. Program seems to stall or take so long, I think that it is broken down.

    There is a progress bar that tells you what the program actually does? I remember seeing it in earlier versions, and it helped identify problems.

    If not, is there a troubleshooting procedure I can work through?

    Thanks for any help

    Well, dkd. alkje; olhp [oihjl, there isn't really a set-loans troublesome documents troubleshooting procedure. If you are not yet see the dialog ongoing export with the bar of progression, there is something seriously wrong with your file or your InDesign.

    Yet, no need (yet) to resort to drastic measures. Try this: the first half of your export document. If it works, export the second half of your document. If this also works, you have a problem and the two halves. The two halves can be supported by Acrobat, just stick to the other and you have a single complete PDF, but the problem still persists.

    If one half of your document exports well and the other half does not, the part without work again in two halves to export. Repeat this until you have that one page left who does not - export and it's caused trouble. It could be a picture, an image, one placed (PDF or EPS<- hint:="" trouble!),="" or="" even="" something="" like="" a="" single="" space="" in="" a="" font="" that="" indesign="" does="" not="" particularly="" like="" --="" at="" least="" you'll="" have="" a="" clue="" to="" where="" to="" scan="" for="" troublesome="">

    If this results in nothing, he can point to a messy file. Sometimes crass and undesirable add up in the corners of the ID files, and save under could clean it up for you. If this is not the case, go to more drastic step described in the present:

  • I would like to create an interactive pdf in Indesign - two guest on 1 page in Indesign that when exporting to adobe reader in pdf format, I can simply add new names that populate both copies and then be printable. Any help out there is how to make an ext

    Two invites on 1 page in Indesign that when exporting to adobe reader in pdf format, I can simply add new names that populate both copies and then be printable. Any help out there is how to make an invitation in Indesign, but now how to make 2 copies on a single page that someone else ie the customer can add their own names. So each field name must complete on both guest. Sounds simple, but is not really there to help. I think he called an interactive pdf. Thanks in advance.

    AutoFill is the easiest part, he lies. If both fields have the same name, they will have the same content: type in one and it appears in the other.

  • InDesign crashes when you try to save IDML - even after reinstallation

    I feel a little desperate here.

    InDesign has decided to crash whenever I try to save something like IDML.

    InDesign has decided to crash every time I try package a specific file that I need to provide for a sale of rights.


    In the process, he damaged the file I tried to record and package. When it started, I felt compelled to disable the synchronization of files, because I can't afford simply to re-create the too many documents after that Indesign has trashed, so I should have still 'safe' copies online.

    What now?


    I've deleted preferences, deleted the other layouts, remove all the styles and changed all the fonts Arial. That particular file still crashes when exporting record as IDML.

    Funny you should ask. I move to the Office to have a clear space. Made no difference.

    Finally I just made a new doc with the same characteristics, which took about 60 seconds, cut and pasted the content by propagation. 64 pages, it's 33 cut blocks. Each 16 pages or so I exported IDML, until it crashed, and I thought that it was page 60, so I divorced from objects on this page, images of reset to allow text on top, and it was fine.

    It's a document originally created in 1998 in QuarkXpress, translated by Q2ID and content and design redesigned last year, so I guess that a gremlin cruft is not something to really complain. I was pleasantly surprised to see that cut and paste sheets imported style and properly linked images (nice work Adobe!).

  • InDesign crashes when I click on the file tab

    InDesign crashes when I click on the file tab. I can open and save files by using shortcuts, but it is not possible to create a PDF or a package. So, I have to use the file tab. And then, InDesign stops, I need to force it to stop. I've already deleted InDesign from my computer and reinstalled, but I had the same problem. Can someone help me?

  • Color chart of model move when exported to PDF and read in Preview/GoodReader

    I tried for days find an answer to this issue, but have failed. You should also know that I am a self-taught user Adobe Creative Suite. I'm working on a Mac with CS6.

    I work for a small publisher that produces knitting books. The problem is this: our tech editor has created graphics in Illustrator using the color chart of model function. (These are graphic knit. Each square contains a shade of motif representing the knit stitch).

    I then place these cards in their format native .ai in an Indesign file and exporting to PDF. In Acrobat, the charts look fabulous. In the drive of the preview Mac and GoodReader, tables do this...

    Screen Shot 2013-12-10 at 11.40.59 AM.png

    ... the model color chart move around inside their places. Each of these points must be placed inside their places. First, when I resize the application framework, the nuances of the model move I have re-size of the frame. Any ideas on what could happen here?

    I tried to save the graphics as PDF files and putting those in the InDesign file. Does not help. Export diagrams as images (jpg or tif) works, but I need to make ridiculously high resolution/size for the quality of the vector image. I would rather put .ai files in the .indd file if possible.

    Try to use the file > object > expand on a copy of the original before making the PDF for placement.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro cc 2015.2 crashes when exporting

    From one day to the other, Premiere Pro has crashed during editing, but worse: it crashes when exporting.

    Things usually never did not, all of a sudden fool you.

    I've updated my graphics driver, I cleaned my Cache of media, I did a complete reboot and still it crashes. It's a fairly simple change, not even a true documentary, but I can't seem to export

  • Media Encoder crashes when exporting from Premiere Pro

    Media Encoder crashes when exporting from Premiere Pro. I am the queue several files to export and Media Encoder will crash. The computer system has 32 GB of RAM and videos of export fine in first, but which requires export each individually. Each video file turned down and some can be quite long (more than 3-5 hours). Nothing else is running on the computer that take over memory.

  • First Pro CC crashes when exporting h.264

    I have shot some footage in AVCHD using a panasonic hmc80, edited two sequences in the same project, a short about 8 minutes, which I exported to the fine H.264 format and a second in 36 minutes that crashes when exporting h.264, exporting to approximately 8 to 10 Mbit / s.  I have tried mpeg2 and exported correctly.  I updated from the first and windows and checked drivers such as Nvidia, all of this to date.  I use a matrox mxo2 as an e/s has no MAXIMUM.  Same Setup worked well with first cs6 for about six months without any problem. It is a windows system 8 I7 with 4 disks in raid zero for media and a separate player previews and export.  I also tried the FLV and it also crashed.

    The error message Windows "Adobe Premiere Pro CC has stopped working" collects more information about the problem.  I press cancel on the error of the box and first stop.  In fact the same thing happened once while I was sitting right on the timeline, take a break, he did the same thing and stopped, I was not made or export or do anything.  I have closed all the programs, including my anti virus software to make sure that wasn't the problem, but kept stopping.  I used to do some audio adjustments on a few clips I've done in the past with CS6 hearing...

    I tried to open the project in CS6 but received a message that the project is damaged and cannot be opened. However, the project opens and plays fine CC where I created it originally. I have inspected the timeline and made the small part of locations that it stops the function of percentage completed without problem.  He stopped at 20 percent, 55 percent and 60 to 70 percent several times.Screen shot.jpg

    Finally found the problem.  Hope this helps other casual users like me.  Originally when I started editing I dissociated video audio to audio specific modifications. It's a game of the game session only and talking heads were not in on it.  Once I finished editing I've linked audio video back together.  After I inspected carefully the timeline by zooming in to check every edit I was out of sync on one of my edits and he had a red - 4 video and a + 4 more on audio right on the clips.  After having to separate the tracks again that the red numbers went away and of course had an export successful h.264 after at least a dozen crashes.     What is funny about this is I had an export successful with mpeg2 after continuous h.264 and flv hangs until this fix.

  • Model of printers is not displayed in Preview Mode of overprinting or when exporting to PDF format.

    Hello-

    I have receid a model from a printer which I can see in my INDD file, but it does not appear in Preview Mode of overprinting or when exporting to PDF format.  I would like to be able to export works of art with the model visible to the customer for review and audit purposes.  What settings must change to CO-OPERATE if the model is visible when I export to PDF?

    Check if it is on a layer marked as non-printable, or if the non-printing attribute is checked in the control panel. You will need to change whrever find you.
