• Can't print PDF from InDesign after update Microsoft anni

  Hi all, since the anni update I was unable to print PDFS from InDesign. No matter if I put PDF for default printer or use the option "Microsoft in PDF format; what I get is: "printing error: Adobe Print Engine failed at the end of your data due to an unknown problem. Sometimes it will print a little less than half of a 60-page document and that's all - it fails (but I get a PDF of that half...). Sometimes, it just goes straight to the error.

  Anyone know what is happening on our how to fix? I have a deadline...

  See you soon

  Hi Dov, thanks for the reply. As mentioned earlier in this thread, I use export when I want to send it to the printing press. However, at this point, I am willing to create a test that is reduced file size and allows me to put all 60 pages of the document in a gap of seven pages using the print option of 3 x 3 thumbnails per page. It gives me a manageable file to send to several people for the document of proof and, at this stage, the output of high quality is not necessary.

  However, I seem to have solved my problem:

  As mentioned, the document prints 1-27 on a 60 page document (print, failed on page 28).

  The paper would not print the range 27-60, when I tried later.

  The document will print 30-60 range.

  Therefore, the problem lies in pages 27 and 28. I've got rid of the pdf linked to two pages and tried work a print - it worked. then, of course, my problem lies in one of the PDFs linked to each page 27 or 28. It turns out that when I opened the linked PDF (sent to me as a PDF from another company as an advertisement) on page 28 in PS, PS automatically rasterized image, I recorded to a location different, re-related in InDesign, and guess what - it worked. I got the impression that I asked who had already failed.

  So, this boiled down to a single work of art linked PDF requiring a pixelation...

  All the best

• When I export a PDF from Indesign CS6 (PDF1A), the first page of the document is blank.  Why?

  When I export a PDF from Indesign CS6 (PDF1A), the first page of the document is blank.  Why?

  Do not fix PDF 1A errors?

  Here is my screenshot of indesign and acrobat.  The first page is empty, the second page is not.  Why only the first page?

  Any help is very appreciated!  Thanks in advance!

  

  Adobe strongly recommends use of PDF/X-4, which retains direct management transparency and color all the way to the INVESTIGATION period.

  PDF/X-1a is indeed antiquated for any content that uses anything other than CMYK + spot color or transparency.

  All modern PDF workflow software supports PDF/X-4. If you are printing to a PostScript RIP, Acrobat Pro (version X and XI) can print PDF/X-4 of tears (or printers) pretty well.

• How to restore good export PDF from InDesign CS3 or CS5 in Snow Leopard?

  I had no problem to export to PDF from InDesign CS3 files (on a Mac Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.4) until last weekend, when all the fonts appear bitmap or thin and rough, and the images lost color depth and contrast. When I copied the InDesign document to my MacBook Pro laptop, also running 10.6.4 the PDF has emerged with its original quality. Support calls Adobe referred me to the incompatibilities between Snow Leopard and InDesign documents. One of these documents was several pages long, but I could not print from the Adobe to my HP website all-in-one Officejet, because one-third of the document was hidden under a white board. This makes it impractical for the troubleshooting document, because I don't have enough screen real estate (even on a 23-inch screen) to let the open document and all the pages and dialogue boxes needed for reference. Back to the phone and chat support, I was told to upgrade my Creative Suite Premium CS3 to CS5 ($ 800!) and buy the updated Acrobat Pro ($200), with no guarantee that this cost of $1,000 would actually solve the problem. I downloaded the trial version of InDesign CS5, and it has NOT solved the problem. I am also afraid that the problem did not exist before last weekend. Before that, my CS3 and Snow Leopard combination worked very well. Then I checked the forums and was appalled by the variety of issues related to PDF files, for which there seems to be no general solution. Meanwhile, I have hundreds of ads, I'm supposed to be prepare and e-mailing as evidence PDF to businesses nationwide. I have two books of 120 with 256 pages to be submitted to printers in PDF format with all kinds of fonts and files image belonging to my clients. The last time I presented a paper on a printer by electronic mail, the work went perfectly. This time and the next, it is obvious, that I won't be able to send a PDF file to all! If this is the case, my activities related to the directories of 27 will be unable to absorb the expenditures necessary to start all over again with software and new computers, and I'll be out of business. Period. Yes - someone ' an at - it a way to solve this problem? Surely, I would be grateful.

• Anyone know how to export a PDF from InDesign is "click to go to the next page" instead of "scroll to go to the next page?

  Anyone know how to export a PDF from InDesign is "click to go to the next page" instead of "scroll to go to the next page?

  I do not use the InDesign last, but in the past ID options for export to the format PDF did not define how a PDF should be considered once exported.  However, these settings can be adjusted in Acrobat via preferences: departure of layout and Zoom in the view of the Page.

• I need to create a PDF from InDesign file that people can change in Reader or Acrobat

  I need to create a PDF from InDesign file that people can change (for example, change a name of 'John' to 'Johnny') of Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat. I already looked at forms, but they do not keep your police, faces and sizes colors and just do everything is selected as a form of black text, 12pt, Times New Roman.

  Can anyone here help me?

  Vincent,

  If you use Acrobat pro, build your .pdf file, and then save it as (french version):

  

  ... so that everyone using Acrobat Reader (or Pro, of course) can change the file .pdf (with restrictions), add comments...

  If you want to try to 'protect' your .pdf file, you can try with this (in the menu 'Preferences' (french version)):

  

• Exporting to PDF from InDesign CS5

  Probably a real simple question to answer, but I am confused.  I'm trying to export a bulletin 6 pages in .pdf format from InDesign CS5; It comes out as a 4-page document in the following sense: the first page is fine (vertical on letter size), the 2nd and 3rd pages appear side by side (horiz. / letter) like pages 4 and 5.  Page 6 is again very well (vertical/letter).  I never had this problem with CS4...  Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance, Wharton

  Interactive PDF is exported in is spreading by default, and the only way to change that is through the script. See Interactive PDF from InDesign CS5 has always Spreads on | InDesignSecrets

• I created a PDF from InDesign file and printing wants convert me to curves...

  ... I don't have Illustrator, so I don't see how I can convert the file in curves and I really don't understand why I should. The file will print well on my printer and when they sound proof in their printer there is no errors. So, why would they change for an Illustrator file and convert to curves? It seems that technology goes backward rather than forward for me. Does anyone have the answers elsewhere telling me to buy Illustrator (or subscribe) or telling me to recreate the document (which I don't have time to do? Thank you.
  JB

  You should not. You should find a printer that works in this century.

  That said, if another printer that is not an option for some reason, make sure that there is no transparency on EACH page, so you can use a parameter of flattening personalized setting to convert type to outlines during flattening (the only way to preserve things like points out, paragraph nets and automatic bullets and numbers). "" See InDesignSecrets "Blog Archive" the conversion of the text Outlines The Right Way and Possible bug: text w / flattening in CS5

• Lo-res images appear in the exported PDF from Indesign files - anyone else having this problem?

  I used Indesign for years without this problem...

  But I noticed recently that many of these images (PSD, TIFF, or JPEG) that I placed in Indesign files are exported as pixelated, versions low resolution when I export for printing (PDF/X-1).

  I tried different settings, but in each case, the image (which appears thin and sharp as seen in Indesign) came out like a pixelated mess blurred.

  This seems to have started happening in the past months.

  Vector graphics are fine.

  Anyone else having this problem?

  Or someone at - it a solution?

  Also use some PDF parameters where resolution is not sous-echantillonnees at all.

  Turn off downsampling.

  And I would like to test, when you export to PDF/X-4 would make to the resolution of the images.

  Just to know, if something is fundamentally wrong with your PDF export feature perhaps.

• Petition to bring back 'Print PDF' in InDesign

  Everyone would like to join a petition to bring back 'Print PDF' as an option in the menu print InDesign?
  I'm on CS4 and my colleagues are on CS5, and they do not have the end of the problems to make their PDFs the way they want them to leave the close command export options to the title of FILE.

  We work at a print shop, and ultimately my colleagues come to me with CS4 to get the files ready printing through our RIP for the manufacture of plates for litho printing.

  The vital parts missing for CS5 is the ability to choose the size of the sheet of the PDF and much finer control of the colors and the DPI/LPI.

  We cannot afford the latest kit for all or update simply because InDesign CS5 has lost a bit of functionality. I don't know what I'll do when it's my turn to upgrade and I know that there will be consequences for how we get our InDesign files for printing. A big headache.

  Why oh why oh why Adobe decided to take this additional feature?

  If you are referring to the missing option to printer Adobe PDF on Mac OS X (Snow Leopard and Lion), please read this post that I did a few years ago. (It has nothing to do with Adobe or InDesign more precisely.)

• Be careful with Interactive PDF from InDesign

  Hi all

  I created an interactive PDF in InDesign CS5 with a series of buttons these buttons to link to pages of a bookmark in the document. These buttons are configured on one of the masters. It seems that whenever I get more than 10 keys on the master, I get the following warning when I open the PDF file in Adobe Reader:

  "Please Note: you cannot save a completed copy of the form on your computer." "If you want a copy for your records, please fill it out and print it"

  I don't have any kind of form fields in the document that I know. Is it possible to locate the form fields if they in fact exist?

  Is there a limit of 10 buttons by master perhaps?

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

• Button nail in interactive PDF from InDesign CC

  I designed an interactive PDF in InDesign CC. When I export and open it with Acrobat the 'buttons' have a blue fill (see them the color for the border of stationary fields).

  I know that I can go into my Acrobat preferences and disable this option however when sharing with other users the PDF I don't want that they have to make those changes in their Acrobat preferences or devrais I must. I understand the highlight color is important when creating text fields for forms, but it's a boring and useless feature for the "buttons".

  It also makes my custom buttons look crap. Is it possible in InDesign to turn off the highlight color before exporting to interactive PDF?

  See my screen capture below, you can see how it destroyed my design.

  

  Geigreg I am a designer as well and understand try this with my code above:

  `

  Acrobat X Pro, you will use the JavaScript Panel in the tool pane. You may need to display the JavaScript in the dropdown at the top right of the Tools pane.

  To add the script to the Document level, you then click Document JavaScripts. An opening of dialogue where you enter the name of the script (for example "highlighted". Then, a text editing box opens, where you can enter the code. Select the entire document and delete it. Then add the code as described above. Confirm and close the dialog boxes.

  For the willClose script, click the value of the Document Actions. Opens a dialog box where you can choose the events. Select close document. An edigint text box opens, where you can enter the code. Enter the code as described above. Confirm and close the dialog boxes.

  Save the document and reopen it.

  I hope this can help.

• Turn off printing when exporting to PDF from Indesign

  Hi I need to create a form T & C, which will be sent to outside customers, sales team have requested that this be readable but not printable in PDF format in one small step in safeguarding the environment. In fact, I reached last week and now for the life of me can not work out how to do it again. Anyone would be able to help?  Thank you, Claire

  NB: unchecking the "print layer" in the layer box Options does not work, unfortunately or not checking the "Unprintable" option in the attributes window. I have a feeling that it was something in the export dialog box, but certainly not an ermissions of security as the PDF option that I created last week does not require a password and does not print.

  I would create your security in Acrobat Pro.

  Open the PDF file and choose file > properties > Security.

  Set a Permissions password. Set up the document for printing. This does not require a password to open the document, but would require only a password if you want to change the settings.
