Print to PDF function was large now terrible with upgrade in OS and AW

Earlier this year, my lamp iMac died and I could get a refurbished iMac 21 "iSeries.

Data sheet:

type of lamp iMac G4 (possessed and used 2013-2016)

1 GHz power PC; 256 MB DDR SDRAM

OS X 10.3.9

iMac 21 "series (refurbished, new to me February 2016)

3.06 dual-Core i3

4 GB RAM, 500 GB HD

OS X 10.6.8

On the G4 lamp, I was running from AppleWorks 6.2 something (I think it was 6.2.7) (I didn't this document and now no easy way to check if I have a bunch of files that I created with it).

Classic 9 OS installed, but ended up not using it because my document (manuscript 400 p begun in 2004) AW migrated perfectly to AW in OS X, I had (and also because the classic did not really work). Printing to PDF capability has been a huge bonus.

On the iMac 21 ", I'm using AppleWorks 6.2.9. All my G4 AW files migrate successfully.

In October 2014, the G4, I got a PDF file of most of my manuscript printed in a local printing - only 5 copies for binding to rings 3 on archives 100% cotton paper. I visited several local printers to check the image quality. It has been uniformly excellent. Due to the size of the file, pages with scanned images (JPEG format) inserted in the text have been saved/printed in separate PDF. There are also a number of line drawings I created for the project by using AW draw and then pasted directly into the main document.

I spent the next 18 months, evidence of indexing and necessary to make a number of corrections. In February 2016, I've migrated to the 21 "iMac computer and started using AppleWorks 6.2.9. Everything was good. Then, in early July I demonstrated new PDFs... body text without images and separate PDF files with images exactly as before. The result was a disaster picture-wise. Resolution of PDF files for all images, including my line drawings, is unacceptable. Help! I need to get this monkey of years 12-1/2 of a project of my back.

FOR INFO. I still have the lamp, "just in case" - even if it ceased to exist, the Loft of the computer in Boston has been able to save all my files.  They sold me and set me up with the iSeries 21 "iMac.

FOR INFO. There was also a problem with some of the designs and a chart that should be revised. I ended up changing them in Pages on a MacBook, I (10.4.11) and then insert the result in my manuscript. I did previously the drawing Pages are different from that of the AW functions. No problem with PDFs of these in 2014. (FYI. I said the hard drive on this machine is unstable, but it was fine for 1-2 months time I use it. I have not AW on the MacBook).

I've done a lot to look online and see no further discussions on the problems of making a PDF from AppleWorks, well from what I read, I learned that the PDF capability is linked to the operating system and not to the software application.

No printing with AppleWorks, I need to be able to make good PDFs at home. What should I do? I plan to call the Loft computer tomorrow morning, but thought I should at least make an effort on my own first.

I have not tried a test make a PDF with an image in Word format on the computer iMac 21 ". Should I do this?

FOR INFO. The manuscript is now about 500p in two master files - text with annexes and a separate index. The document consists of approximately 30 sections with headings under execution-odd and footers start-of-chapter/annex drop folio. As I said with scanned images pages are in separate files (20 or more). The manuscript contains almost 1000 notes and numbers about 45 and 46 cards. Most of the images are photographic, to be mounted by hand, so those who just captions text box in the body of the text. I tried to move this project to several years (ca. 2007) Pages without success mainly because of the drawings I had made to the draw AW. At this point, I have to just make the final revisions, to print my PDF files and return to my local printing store.

Hi Dorothea,

At this point, I'd put AppleWorks 6.2.9 on your Macbook, completing the revisions and print PDF files there.

Copy the AppleWorks folder (including all files it contains) in the Applications folder on the MacBook. AppleWorks will create other files, to it is executed.

Work with a COPY of your current project. Back up frequently on an external drive.

Kind regards

Barry

  • Why can I not print a PDF (NS train ticket) once downloaded with Firefox? (file (SECURE)

    When you place your order and pay a ticket by internet, they send a pdf file, you must download and print. When this download with Firefox (from my e-mail account), the PDF says (SECURED) and I can't print the ticket (pdf file). (Adobe program stops automatically).
    When you download this same PDF in Safari, I don't encounter any problem.

    Have you tried using an application with Firefox instead of use a plugin or Firefox itself to deal with? Other people have reported problems with the reading of PDFs with Firefox.

  • Is there anyway to make Acrobat DC Pro (Win) pop up a warning dialog box before you print a PDF file?

    We have several very large PDFs on our web site that some want to have access to print. We don't mind them print the PDF files, but want to warn with a dialog box pop up that PDF files are hundreds of pages.  Is this possible with Acrobat Pro DC?

    Thank you

    Dave

    Hello

    It's absolutely to do a custom pop dialog that warn you when there is a big pdf for printing.

    However you will need JavaScript to create a code to perform this function.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro XI - print to PDF-broken

    Hello. I have recently noticed a problem with the printer driver PDF Adobe Acrobat Pro XI. Print all PDF functions seem to be broken.

    Web browser applications:

    Firefox (my main web browser), the print driver invites you to me which file I want to save the PDF and then the status bar for the printing/conversion process will reach 50% and display the title of the error message dialog box: error in the printer. Dialog box Message: an error occurred during printing.

    In Chrome, the print job to tempt me to a file name and after I click on 'Print', nothing would happen. No error message. No PDF file is created.

    In Microsoft Edge, the same result as directed by Chrome. No error message. No PDF file is created.

    In Adobe Acrobat Reader DC:

    Print results Adobe PDF printer in two error dialog boxes, "the document could not be printed" followed by "it has not chosen to print pages". This is despite the fact that 'All' has been selected as an option in "Pages to print" in the print dialog box.

    In the Office Applications:

    Same results according to the Chrome and Microsoft test Edge. No error message. No PDF file is created.

    In other applications:

    Thunderbird translated "an error occurred when printing"

    Notepad translated "the handle is invalid."

    The last time I could print to PDF with success was before Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and Windows 10 upgrade (from Windows 7 Ultimate).

    I tried a "repair Acrobat Installation" under the drop-down help Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and despite an attempt to repair under the administrator account, it has not solved the problem.

    I do not experience these symptoms on my 3 Surface Pro, which is also running Adobe Acrobat XI Pro, Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and Windows 10 (upgrade of Windows 8.1).

    Is anyone else facing similar issues on Windows 10? I noticed another thread on a broken print in PDF format, but that one seems to be content to users of Windows 7.

    Any idea or advice would be much appreciated.

    I had the same problem. Using Procmon and found that install Acrobat was written to the registry entry to distill 11 but distill has been reading the registry entry for Distiller 10. Basically, I used regedit, exported HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Adobe\Acrobat Distiller\11.0, opens the file in Notepad, changed all 11 in the tens, then imported. Worked perfect after that.

  • Why is my imac printing docs pdf with squares instead of text

    I use OS X 10.9.5. When I want to print a pdf document was sent to me from an external source (for example, my electricity bill) the document is printed with squares where the text should be.

    Sometimes if I get an overview of printing, it will look OK but always printed with squares/no text, and sometimes it shows squares in the preview. I was not able to determine a trend.

    I tried to print the docs to two printers (HL 2140 Brother and Epson WF3620) with the same result. I can't find that someone has posted the same problem in any forum...

    If there are small places where individual letters should be, it's a problem of compatibility of fonts.

    If you print from Acrobat, you can work around this by using the option 'Print as image' under 'Advanced Print Setup:

  • HP 8600 pro all-in-one: the horizontal stripes on the print out and print to PDF HP 8600

    I'm the horizontal stripes on the printed pages. I cleaned 3 times, each time, the printed test results look good. I even had streaks on the pdf when I chose the print to pdf function. I ran the diagnostics and everything seems fine. I don't get the error messages.

    Not all pages have streaks. But I tried to re - print this document several times and the first page always streaks.

    Hello kerriman,

    Could you go to see how the printer is connected? Is it plugged into a bar supply or directly into a wall outlet? If it is in a power bar could you try plug it straight into the wall.

  • Adobe Distiller crashes when opening - cannot print in PDF format

    Since the update to Adobe DC I can't print to PDF or open Adobe Distiller without crashing a few seconds later. I've read a lot about it being corrupted fonts, but I tried to uninstall all but system fonts and I always have the same question. Looks like it hangs when it reaches the Lucida Console fonts when checking for fonts, it is however a system font and I can't uninstall it. The question I have is that I can't PRINT to PDF as it just hangs up. I use a lot printing to PDF functionality in my workflow! Please HELP because it is very frustrating and I had no problem with XI. Is any way to downgrade?

  • Master/detail for printing of PDF report

    My application allows end-users a way to fill a transport request via a form, separated by about 10 regions. The application consists of about 50 fields (from the table requests) and n number of transport, penetrated through tabular form in the application form. Once they complete it and send it to the transport Department, I want them to be able to generate a master/detail of the application report , with information of demand on top and all the transport on a table.

    The DBA installed Apache FOP and it works fine for printing the report. We are on Apex 3.2, exploiting an Oracle 11g database.

    So I followed this guide: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_master_detail_pdf.html. I have created a master/detail form, installed Desktop Publisher BI, created the RTF template, everythng. But it is not out of what I want.

    When I "print" to PDF, I get only a table with transport, but no info on demand at all, even if I choose "Advanced (include session state information)" and I does not include session state information on all the variables I wanted for the output in the PDF file.

    Any idea of what this could be the cause? Session state disappears somehow when I print the PDF? Or is there a better way to solve this problem? Any help is welcome.

    Best regards

  • Until a few days ago I was able to print a PDF from Acrobat Reader ms in Windows 7.  Now I get "the document could not be printed."  The next panel says "there are no pages selected to print," even if all the pages have been selected.  Thoughts?

    Until a few days ago I was able to print a PDF from Acrobat Reader ms in Windows 7.  Now I get "the document could not be printed."  The next panel says "there are no pages selected to print," even if all the pages have been selected.  I've uninstalled Reader and reinstalled, but the problem remains.  I also tried to repair the installation and that doesn't work anymore.
