Leonard - while i agree that Acrobat Distiller does not "convert" type from one format to another, this "conversion" certainly does "appear" to happen between the time you are sitting in front of you authoring application and the time you are looking at the resulting PDF in Acrobat, it is just that this happens when you "print" PostScript, before Distiller gets to it - now, one might argue that Distiller does make "choises" as to what font technology it might use... just wanted to make sure Raymond didn't think he was loosing his mind...

HOWEVER, the Acrobat License Agreement legally forbids you from running Acrobat on a server.

The problem is apparently related to the path to INDEX.PDX. I am burning the files to an autoplay CD-ROM, with a copy of Reader w/ search on the CD. At first, the disc appears to work fine, with the opening PDF launching in the on disc copy of Reader. But when I try to search, the Search plug in cannot find the index. It displays a long path that seems to indicate that the indexed path from the files to the index is not relative with respect to each other, but rather is relative with respect to the root of the disc. If I mount the index in one of the PDFs prior to burning, I get an error message saying the index cannot be found when the disc autoplays, however, if I launch a search the index *is* found and the search works. I would rather not have my clients see an error message, even if it is erroneous. Does anyone have any ideas?

OK, I was wondering if you were in a position to use a software RIP that can consume PDF directly rather than printing through PostScript from Acrobat. If you're using that Phaser then you're almost certainly not without replacing the printer.

We receive document components created external from a variety of sources in pdf form. These pdf files that are quite diverse in their font inclusion. Some have no fonts embedded, some have some fonts embedded and some not, and some have some embedded, embedded and subsetted and fonts not included. Further, since these pdfs were created by multiple applications and organizations, we also see the same font embedded multiple times with different encoding (typically Mac and Windows) even within the same pdf file (likely graphic elements created on a mac, and textual content created on a pc). Our tasks is to combine these document components into various pdf documents to be used for viewing and printing. As you can image, when we combine several of these PDF components into a single pdf file (using Acrobat), the resulting pdf file has many more fonts included in the file (as a result of subsetting and encoding) that would actually be needed had all of these components be created by organizations that understand how fonts are handled in PDFs and with the understanding of how these components would be required to be used. I have tried exporting the components to eps, and I selected the Font Inclusion as NONE (rather than the Embed all option), but this doesn't seem to remove those subsetted fonts. If I remove all fonts, I have created an application that can re -embed them as I desire, but (as I expected) it doesn't work correctly when dealing with subsetted fonts. I'm also curious as to how PDFs (or postscript for that matter), handle the same font in a file multiple time with different encoding. At least in Postscript, I was not aware that when calling a font for use, that you could distinguish between different encodings. If my assumption is correct, is it likely that if I am referencing characters that are mapped differently across encodings, that I am likely to be getting viewing errors in my combined pdf? Or does the page independancy of PDF some how take care of this. Unfortunately I do not have the luxury of requesting that all pdf files received have fonts dealt with consistently and per my requirements. Any ideas as to how best address this? Thanks for your thoughts!

I don't think I follow the "thus". There are ways to remove embedded fonts, but (a) that doesn't change the name (if the name changed, the original is long gone) (b) that doesn't change the encoding (it had better not, or the PDF will display wrongly) Subset fonts must be kept separate; the individual subsets are each used and set up independently. Acrobat cannot merge subset fonts, though with an enormous amount of work it is technically feasible - AppendPDF can do it, I hear. No approach which doesn't do very detailed analysis of the individual font objects and files can work. Similarly, if you were to remove an embedded subset, you'd have not a reference to a unembedded font, but a very broken PDF...

There are two things for me to look at. 1/ The length of time that a cd-rom will be a viable format for storage of information with regard to technological changes. 2/ and more importantly what the format of the stored information will be. PDF is essentially useful for the main reasons of generally reduced file size and subsequent use of only the one Viewer for all printable native formats. What timescale can I place on PDF for this purpose? Is this question relevant? Is PDF useful as a digital archive or is it really only used for contemporay documents placed on the web and for Publishing puposes. I realise many products are back compatible and we may have future work in resaving our archived documents. In all reality the length of storage could be anything upto 25 years. As far as I can tell nobody has that much foresight! I look forward to hearing any opinions users of this forum may have, or indeed any information they may be able direct me to regarding the above two questions. If these questions are not pertinent to this list I apologise in advance but at this stage I can only make a best guess as to what the long term strategy may well be. Perhaps XML is an answer?

They publish somewhere between 500 and 1000 titles each year. I don't know what help this really is, except to say that you wouldn't be alone if you went this route. Can someone talk about Acrobat 5.0 supporting XML tags? I thought I read about three options coming for PDF creation: unstructured, structured, and tagged PDFs. For me, this would be the most useful thing added to the PDF spec since it originated. And if it works like I hope, you should wait 'till you can upgrade to v.5 and then archive in that version's "structured" or "tagged" formats. Your archived files will be PDF, plus able to export content as XML (plus able to export content as RTF, FWIW). --KK E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7-Apr-2001 18:16:09-GMT,3621;000000000001 Return-Path: Received: from etrn.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [208.155.48.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA07892 for ; Sat, 7 Apr 2001 12:16:08 -0600 (MDT) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f37IEhD26287; Sat, 7 Apr 2001 13:14:44 -0500 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Sat, 7 Apr 2001 13:01:31 -0500 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) id f37I1T225709; Sat, 7 Apr 2001 13:01:29 -0500 Received: from piiweb.PageGenie.com (ftp.koocdi.com [209.133.111.32] (may be forged)) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f37I1RC25705 for ; Sat, 7 Apr 2001 13:01:27 -0500 Received: from C1142035A - 24.176.156.190 by piiweb.PageGenie.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.5.1774.114.11); Sat, 7 Apr 2001 11:10:10 -0700 Message-ID: <002001c0bf8c$fd566c40$0100a8c0@mshome.net> From: "Vincent Huang" To: References: Subject: Re: [PDF] PDF Reliability as a long term Digital Archive Solution?

But one should also consider that there may be situations where "repurposable" documents are not an objective, and might even be highly undesirable, such as when the objective is true archiving in original form. So, I would like to more comments on the original question with thoughtful attention to objectives. I am very glad the question has been asked.

Thus my request for any details on Acrobat 5.0-PDFs' ability to have their content tagged with XML at the time of distilling. Did I imagine this, or is it true? The info I read so far glosses over this and goes on about MicroSoft and speech-to-text for the blind, forms, and all manner of other things that, while great, wouldn't help me out. Don't get me wrong: I learned enough about SGML a few years back to understand the whole "dead-" vs. "living-document" argument. And I agree about using **ML for docs that are to be mulit-purposed.

PDF (from our "use it as an internal format for our Apogee prepress workflow system) serves us very well - it is a stable "snap shot" of a moment in a documents life - like a digital searchable, newspaper or magazine page, i can pull it to my hard drive and print it as the author/publisher/designer intended it to look. I can even retain complex images that contain Pantone spot colors and (if i have the desire) print the document out using special inks. I can pick up a page and print it as a single document, or impose it into a flat, even reimpose it should one of the presses break. I can downsample the images and retain the searchable text it and attach to an email so you can read the article i just read as well. from this standpoint, PDF is very "re-purposeable". XML is not "the Ultimate "Live" format, it is simply an instance of SGML to enable use on the Web. as SGML was invented 30 years ago, i guess would pause before i would use the word "ultimate" on anything based on a thrity year old idea. and while i appreciate the fact that certain instances of XML provide ways to re-format content on the fly, their are many things like "i want you to use this font" and "i want you to image this eps file using ICC profiles" that still have not seen the implimentation stage, albeit the specification stage in that world of "tagged languages/technologies". So, before you start jumping up and down saying "hey, this PDF file format is a loser because it is a "End" format with complete "Style/Presentation" detail" do not assume that the specification can't be reved, don't think Adobe is so sily to ONLY be behind PDF, and do not assume that you can't put tags inside a PDF file. because you can. you just rev the spec. Also, take a look at; http://xml.coverpages.org/jdf.html Adobe is ALL OVER THAT. their are Many moments in publishing where you require the content to "stay" in a style/presentation, but would be really really helpul to contain metadata. exchanging Aadvertisements between design firms, ad agencies, prepress service providers, publishers and printers will benifit from XML type metadata inside a PDF. some data needs to change constantly (airline reservations, currency exchange data) and others need to stay "locked" (social security numbers, our 1997 tax return) - simply XMLing everything makes little sense to me.

It's just one of many formats out there and serves its unique purposes. For some purposes, PDF would be a better choice. Depending on how PDF evolve, to a point, XML and PDF actually comlement each other. But for content to be meaningful in your Document, XML is simply a better choice. Yes, you may allow PDF format to have "Tags" such as XML has, but you'll never have an "As Rich" environment and infrastructure for developers and IT management. Time would tell. Peace and out.

Structured PDF and tagged PDF in Acrobat 5.0 , which looked promising at first sight, seem designed to play with RTF, not XML. FrameMaker 6.0, for example, bases the 'structured' PDF it outputs on paragraph styles, not true structure, and tagged PDF is produced, for the moment, only by applications in the MSOffice suite. Mike Jahn wrote: >PDF ... is a stable "snap shot" of a moment in a document's life This is a very apt description of a document in PDF, which to the XML world would be a 'rendition'. Someone wanting to build a long-term archive of documents should ask whether it was important to keep only content and structure or the content and structure in a particular rendition. If the former, then XML or SGML might be the best solution; if the latter, then PDF might be best.

Once you installed it, it will add a printer driver "BliceFax" to your PC. From any of your Windows software, you may click File, Print and when the print dialog box opens, you may select BliceFax as your "printer" (just like Winfax). If you click OK, then BliceFax will create a TIF file of your document. After you selected BliceFax and click the Properties button, it will open the BliceFax setup dialog box. In this box, if you click the down-arrow of File Format, a drop down menu will open and you may pick one of the 14 file types that Ching mentioned. I have attached a screen shot (in jpg format) of the BliceFax dialog box - it shows the file type I picked was "ZSoft pcx image format". Unfortunately, the screen capture program cannot capture opened drop-down menu. The screen shot shows I have picked Zsoft pcx image format and the dropdown menu closed. Faxcvt is capable creating files in different formats, but not capable of converting a file from one format to another. I mean it won't open nor import a graphic file and then output it in another file format.

Count on migrating data between storage media, count on new formats for your data, but most of all, be sure that you use technologies that meet the definition of "industry standard" (like ISO 9660 and PDF) - in order to mimimize the potential for long-term problems.

Your Direct Question ---------------------- As background, I've consulted on this type of question for (among others), life insurance companies, who have a legal requirement to store policies for 100 years (i.e., lifetime of a person {80-90 years} + mildly unreasonable length of time a court suit could drag on {10-20 years}). So 25 years is a relatively short requirement . You are correct. No one has that much foresight. In the past you used acid-free paper and a fireproof warehouse not located in a flood plain or an earthquake prone state. How is it typically solved today? A current format (both physical and logical) is chosen. Good CDROMs have a physical lifetime of 100 years, however, we can't assume the data will be readable. So you plan (and write into a plan that becomes part of corporate policy) that every 10 years (or so - pick an interval your company feels comfortable with) the format (both physical and logical) is to be reviewed and migration performed if necessary. If you choose a major format (e.g., ISO 9660 CDROMs & PDF) both should last 10 years and/or conversion tools will still be available in 10 years. Is this expensive? Possibly, but it's still a lot cheaper than keeping paper. This should satisfy most regulatory bodies, government contracts, or whatever else is driving your need to archive for this length of time. PDF vs. XML -------------- Let's not go here again. They are both useful for what they are useful for. There have been both mark-up and procedural printer languages for 30 years or so; (XML is not that new; I was working with SGML in 1986). Both have their uses. To arbitrarily say one is better than the other without specifying what the business goals and reasons you are trying to achieve first is specious (see http://www.nautilusSolutions.com/Pres.htmXRRCMarch01.pdf, Slides 3-8 for a further discussion of the differences between mark-up languages and procedural printer languages). There are times you don't want to repurpose a document and you need a "final format" archive. For example, most legal archives require this (contracts, insurance policies, etc.). You don't want something that you can easily change and repurpose - the entire point is to have a 'unchangeable' copy of the 'original' document. You may also want to stabilize the display properties for issues such as branding, maintaining corporate look-and-feel, or artistic or aesthetic reasons. Bring able to intelligently break down information by content and repurpose may not be a business objective and may, in fact, contradict what you are trying to achieve. There are times when you do want to repurpose documents, where intelligent manipulation based on content does matter, and where maintaining a fixed final display look and feel is not as important. For these cases, XML is great. There are just as many examples of real-world business problems where a "final format" document is what is needed as there are examples of where a repurposable tagged document is needed and vice versa. I currently recommend either PDF or XML, depending on what business needs my client is trying to solve. Hope this helps.

The number x just increases by one every time the Apache group make a release. (Some releases aren't made publically.) Apache 1.3.19 is a publically available release, therefore it is stable. Some other software *does* work that way - Linux kernels for instance are stable if the second number in the version string is even, but 'unstable' if it is odd. eg 2.2 is stable, 2.3 is not. I would suggest that you ask your ISP to point you at any statement from the Apache group web site which backs up their statement... > Perhaps you should also consider changing your ISP if they weren't able to > find updated Apaches, and they're not keeping abreast of changes to > critical software (which will contain important security fixes and so > forth.) That sounded a bit more extreme than I intended. Apologies if anyone took it the wrong way. However, I'd still be worried that they weren't keeping up to date.

I am not as 'worried' as I was and look forward to participating in future discussion Regards Adair Broughton E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9-Apr-2001 14:47:34-GMT,2695;000000000000 Return-Path: Received: from etrn.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [208.155.48.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id IAA25311 for ; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 08:47:33 -0600 (MDT) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f39EkaP06855; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 09:46:36 -0500 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Mon, 9 Apr 2001 09:37:39 -0500 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) id f39EbbL06612; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 09:37:37 -0500 Received: from usftw454.alconlabs.com (alconhq196.alconhq.com [208.145.16.196] (may be forged)) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with SMTP id f39EbZC06608 for ; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 09:37:36 -0500 Received: from usftw103.alconlabs.com by usftw454.alconlabs.com via smtpd (for everglades.binc.net [208.155.48.8]) with SMTP; 9 Apr 2001 14:37:35 UT Received: by USFTW103 with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19) id <2LK2K292>; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 09:37:34 -0500 Message-ID: From: Philip Kruger To: "'pdf@lists.pdfzone.com'" Subject: [PDF] PDF limits Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2001 09:37:30 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2653.19) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-pdf@lists.pdfzone.com Reply-To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com X-LISTINFO: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/lists.html X-ARCHIVE: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/listarchives.html X-CONTACT: mailto:webmaster@pdfzone.com The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ Does anyone know as to how many pages I can put in a pdf? -----Original Message----- From: kilara [mailto:kilara77@usa.net] Sent: Monday, May 29, 2000 5:03 PM To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com Subject: Re: [[PDF] ] "Stephen Lavey" wrote: The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com/ __________________________________________________________________ remove ___________ * NOW SHOWING @ http://www.PDFzone.com/ * ____________ Contributing Writer: AcroForm Advisor Kas Thomas offers tips on improving the speed of your PDF JavaScript. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9-Apr-2001 17:17:06-GMT,2098;000000000001 Return-Path: Received: from etrn.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [208.155.48.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA28839 for ; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 11:17:04 -0600 (MDT) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f39HEAD12327; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 12:14:10 -0500 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Mon, 9 Apr 2001 12:05:58 -0500 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) id f39H5ul12024; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 12:05:56 -0500 Received: from smtpdenver.denver.cahners.com (smtpdenver.cahners.com [206.26.89.202]) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f39H5tC12020 for ; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 12:05:55 -0500 Received: from binchiexc001.cahners.com ([10.35.38.10]) by smtpdenver.denver.cahners.com with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service Version 5.5.2650.21) id 2JN57ABF; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 11:05:53 -0600 Received: by BINCHIEXC001 with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id <2GTFT0VS>; Mon, 9 Apr 2001 12:05:53 -0500 Message-ID: <517FA14C1A28D411BBA300508B63564401FE3D6B@binnycexc002.cahners.com> X-Sybari-Space: 00000000 00000000 00000000 From: "Spell, Nicole (Cahners-NYC)" To: "'pdf@lists.pdfzone.com'" Subject: [PDF] COPIDOTS Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2001 12:05:49 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-pdf@lists.pdfzone.com Reply-To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com X-LISTINFO: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/lists.html X-ARCHIVE: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/listarchives.html X-CONTACT: mailto:webmaster@pdfzone.com The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ Anyone have any experience with copidots inside of pdf's?

A typical passage looks like this: "Acrobat 5.0le tsy ou enable colleagues to extract images from Adobe PDF documents" Screen display is ok. The problem occurs with all pdf's i tried (and i tried a lot from different sources). The same files printed from the same pc to the same printer under Windows NT (installed in parallel) print correctly. I guess it is a problem with the printer driver - but all other applications i print from do not suffer from that problem. Has anyone got an idea?

So I installed Distiller 3.01 and upgraded to 3.02. When I print to this printer nothing happened. When first installing distiller 3 I was able to access it and to make changes in job options. After rebooting my system I can no longer access it. If I activate acrodist.exe through Explorer a dialogue box states that acrodist.exe is not a valid Win32 application. So I started I over again and went through the install process again and now when I try to print (using this driver) the program crashes. Any advice how I can set up both distiller 3 and 4 so that both can function together???

Although, I believe Dov Isaacs at Adobe has suggested in the past this is not advisable. Looking back at how we did the installs (as the releases came out), I'd say uninstall all versions of Acrobat on your system, restart, then start with Acrobat Ver. 3.01-3.02, then install Ver. 4.05 into another dir. This worked for us so far. (Test to make sure 3.02 works before proceeding to 4) I'm not an IS/IT person, but did find I could handle these tasks. Hope this helps.

[Fadel F Iskander] I do not know the limits, however we have created files that have over 250,000 pages. However, you may want to know that you will not be able to print page(s) 65,536 and above using Acrobat Reader 4.05c or Acrobat 4.05. You can view the pages but cannot print them. When you try to print page number 65536, page number 1 will print instead, and when you try to print page 65537, page 2 will print, etc. I have not installed Acrobat version 5.0 as of today. I received it Friday April 6th, 2001. Therefore, I do not know if they have fixed that bug. I hope that helps you out. Fadel F.

Have you tried uninstalling them both, then reinstalling Distiller 3 first then upgrading it, then reinstalling Distiller 4. If both programs use some of the same components, you may have replaced later versions with earlier versions. I don't know if this is the case, I am just guessing. Apologies if you have already tried this. With regards, Andy Jones. ----- Original Message ----- From: "cjmarch" To: Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2001 7:19 PM Subject: Re: [PDF] Distiller 3 and 4 The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ pia, cant tell you how to fix what you have, but both run fine together with no problems on the macintosh platform. i run both all the time. you should consider a switch to mac if its feasible. if not, well, i cant help you, sorry. chris "P.

There will be no updates to the Acrobat 4.x software at this point. The issue is that of Acrobat 5. Please report your results using Acrobat 5 / Acrobat Reader 5 to confirm that the problem is fixed in that software. Thank you! - Dov Hello Dov, Well, I installed 5.0, and guess what? It worked like a charm. Even a printer Driver problem that existed in 4.0 got fixed. Now then, is the reader on the web site corrected, or in other words, is it 5.0 or 4.05c. When I try to download it, it reports 4.05c, which is what I have already! Any plans for the reader to be fixed? Not all (or any) of our customers, or our customers' customers have the full Acrobat. Please let us know. Thanks a million. Now on another issue that relates to registration. When I installed, it asked if I wanted to register online. I said, of course. Then it asked for a serial number, and it said that it is on the CD-Case, I looked through out the jewel case, and there were no serial numbers. Non on the packing list from adobe either. So, needless to say, I am not registered as of yet. What do you think?

The reason for this is that the United States Federal Income Tax deadline is on April 16. Adobe's web site usually gets quite swamped at this season as users download tax forms in PDF form from the US Internal Revenue Service and then attempt to download the Acrobat Reader from Adobe's web site. If we posted the new version of Acrobat Reader before the tax deadline, we would risk totally overwhelming our servers with Acrobat Reader download requests both by users who needed the Acrobat Reader for tax purposes and those who just wanted the newest version. That risk was too much. Thus, we decided to wait until after the tax filing deadline. In terms of registration, if you were doing an upgrade from Acrobat 4 (as I believe you did), the serial number is your Acrobat 4 serial number. Upgrades to Acrobat 5 do not provide a new serial number. The installer recognizes your old serial number. If you installed Acrobat 5 "on top of" Acrobat 4, (not recommended) it took the serial number from your registry automatically and you didn't need to enter the old serial number. If you uninstall Acrobat 4.x first, then you need to enter your Acrobat 4.x serial number when installing the Acrobat 5 upgrade. - Dov At 4/10/2001 02:35 PM, Fadel F Iskander wrote: >Fadel, > >I believed you when you originally reported symptoms with regards >to Acrobat / Acrobat Reader 4.05.

When I print to distiller 3.02 the resulting document does not embed any of the fonts. It uses courier and many of the words overlap each other. I made certain that the fonts were in the c:\psfonts and that distiller could find it. Also in Job Options, embed fonts were checked and subset is at 99%. Any suggestions? I assume I need to sort this out before I reinstall Acrobat 4.

Acrobat comes with a folder containing fonts that Distiller may need for converting documents to PDF. If a PostScript file that Distiller is converting refers to a font but does not contain the font itself, Distiller looks in this folder for the font information to embed the font. You can set up additional font folders for Distiller. By default, fonts are placed in the following folders: (Windows): Resource/Font in the Acrobat folder (and in /psfonts if ATM is installed). (Mac OS): Resource/Font in the Acrobat folder (and in System Folder/Fonts if ATM is installed). So, the questions are, do you have ATM installed? and is the .../Resource/Font folder in place too? If not, then the courier font you see is the result I believe. The overlapping letters may result from the printer driver you're using. Are you using the Acrobat Distiller Printer instance to create your .PS? Hope this helps. Patricia Leone-Thiel Client Training Services Mgr. pleoneth@comcom.com Commercial Communications, Inc.

Try running Flash animations on your palm! Yes, the PDA's are "less" if you compare golf balls to basketballs, but an "equivalent" Palm (m505, IIC, Handspring Prism) costs you as much as an HP Jornada 548 by the time you "add" all the add ons (MP3 player, software, etc) so price is moot. HP also just introduced a lower cost version of the Jornada (still in color) and they will have a CF card digital camera for it soon! Palm users just like to tout how great their platform is and how often WindowsCE supposedly "crashes"...NOT, I've run Quake on mine! Microsoft usually takes 3 tries to get things "stabilized" (ie Win95 from Win 1.0, 2.0, 3.1) and it has gained market share in this area. I'm no MS fan, but working on it and I love it. NO REGRETS. Crashing is "moot point" as I can run an .avi file, Pac Man, Pocket Word and Pocket IE and have yet to "crash" it.... The crashing is highly exaggerated by Palm Evangelists...and as a prepress guy, you should be one to know that the Mac is the printer platform of choice, regardless of their "marketshare"...shame on you! I suggest you read these "REAL WORLD" opinions from USERS and not the marketing hype: http://www.wincecity.com/articles/2001/3/2001-3-30-WinCE-What-Makes.html I have yet to see a PocketPC user switch to a Palm after using both...usually its from Palm to PocketPC and not the other way around. Like one guy said, Palm = pocket sticky notes, PocketPC = pocket computer. I kinda like showing off my babies home movies AND organize my life as well. Too bad Adobe sold out to the weaker (ultimately, as quarter earnings show) Palm OS.... (I read that on my PocketIE btw, about Palm losing money lately due to the fact of "lack of market direction", they sure waited long enough for color to come out didn't they) I guess Ansyr is the Answer and we can rely on a third party to do PDF for now.... In the end, the PocketPC will take over...its seamless with Office apps, how much more market share could you ask for???? cjmarch cc: Sent by: Subject: Re: [PDF] Acrobat Reader for Palm OS first???? owner-pdf@lists.p dfzone.com 04/11/2001 10:49 AM Please respond to pdf The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ bob, quite simple... palm OWNS the pda market with an 80% share, and while windows has been trying (for several years)to wrest the title from them, the pocket pc is just now becoming a DECENT platform. it will be some time before it can be considered as reliable and 'robust' as even win98SE. by that time, it will be too late. also consider that an entry llevel (palm compatible) pda is $169-249$-- compare that with a $500 pocket pc, and you will quickly realize that only the real windowheads are willing to pay that much for the privelege of crashing a mobile system. good day and regards (and remember its all marketshare) chris march Robert_Lira@BalboaInsurance.Com wrote: > The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com > __________________________________________________________________ > > I just read some news about it through AvantGo... > > I'm quite disappointed that they did not develop it for the PocketPC first, > since > it supports color outright and has Pocket IE....kinda more practical taking > PDFs > in a 32MB machine than in an 8MB machine don't you think?

(how functional is office running on a 3x4 screen, as an aside? how many spreadsheet cells can you see? how many words per minute can you peck out?) palm is also being integrated vertically into the enterprise...oracle already has hooks, and many more are coming. i wish you luck with the pocketpc, and hope you are happy with it. i am clearly happy with my palm, and feel no need to try and convert anyone to it, in fact i hope my competition IS using pocketpc. chris march E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11-Apr-2001 18:35:08-GMT,3017;000000000000 Return-Path: Received: from etrn.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [208.155.48.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA05982 for ; Wed, 11 Apr 2001 12:35:07 -0600 (MDT) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f3BIW3a03845; Wed, 11 Apr 2001 13:32:03 -0500 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Wed, 11 Apr 2001 13:23:49 -0500 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) id f3BINmm03344; Wed, 11 Apr 2001 13:23:48 -0500 Received: from smtp-relay-1.Adobe.COM (smtp-relay-1.adobe.com [192.150.11.1]) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f3BINlC03338 for ; Wed, 11 Apr 2001 13:23:47 -0500 Received: from inner-relay-2.Adobe.COM (inner-relay-2.corp.adobe.com [153.32.1.52]) by smtp-relay-1.Adobe.COM (8.8.6) with ESMTP id LAA05928 for ; Wed, 11 Apr 2001 11:27:18 -0700 (PDT) Received: from mailsj-v1.corp.adobe.com by inner-relay-2.Adobe.COM (8.8.5) with ESMTP id LAA02927; Wed, 11 Apr 2001 11:23:34 -0700 (PDT) Received: from isaacs-base.adobe.com ([153.32.39.110]) by mailsj-v1.corp.adobe.com (Netscape Messaging Server 4.15) with ESMTP id GBN4FJ00.22W; Wed, 11 Apr 2001 11:23:43 -0700 X-Organization: Adobe Systems Incorporated X-URL: X-Location: Office (ISAACS-BASE) Message-Id: <5.0.2.1.2.20010411112131.0337f910@mailsj.corp.adobe.com> X-Sender: isaacs@mailsj.corp.adobe.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.0.2 Date: Wed, 11 Apr 2001 11:23:38 -0700 To: Bob Dawson From: "Dov Isaacs" Subject: Re: [PDF] RE: Acrobat 5 ships!

Can you ship Acrobat Reader 5 with an installer that detects and removes all earlier versions as a default inc. version 2. We distribute Acrobat on our CD's and our main source of support calls is people adding/removing and installing multiple copies of Acrobat. IMO you cannot expect all users of a free reader product to understand the consequences of removing 3 after 4 is installed. Other than that keep up the good work.

If we didn't have to send our copy to the authors, we wouldn't use them at all. Our TIFFs are scanned to the percentage we need them to be, so the hi-res scans are the right size. Since we have the hi-res scans done by our printer, we have to talk to them about the format they are saving them in. All indications are they're saving them in Mac format though. Thanks, Justin >>> 04/13/01 01:35PM >>> The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ Another thing, sometimes w/ memory issues, are the original photos in TIF format larger than what is in the "picture box" in Quark? If so, you may try cropping only the photo sized to "what you need" and that will save your memory size as well... Its preferrable to have a photo in a picture box @ 100% as oppossed to Quark "faking" the scaling (-100% or +100%)... Also, always save the TIFFs in PC (ASCII) format, it translates better and Macs can open PC TIFFs in the first place. One work around we did was simply take that buggy TIFF in Photoshop, Select All marquee, CUT, create NEW doc, PASTE... Save As..TIF and it worked. You may also have a corrupt ppd as a last resort. In order to look for stray TTFs, try doing a "Find" of fonts that show up in usage. Replace or delete text box w/ T1 text. Also, since you're printing direct to Scitex drive, WHY are you placing lo-res FPOs???? Why not the originals in the first place? Sounds like your printer needs to be doing/helping you w/ some of the legwork here.... Change those TIFFs from Binary to ASCII and that will save you a ton of space and FTP better as well...

The graphic is a TIFF but may have been scanned on a Mac system and converted to PC, or originally saved in a different format and converted to a TIFF. I"ll be investigating that ASAP. Also, if I distill the file with out low-res placement scans in place instead of the final high-res scans, it works. According to the Quark usage utility, there are no TTFs used in the file, but it's been my experience that sometimes there are fonts present in the document that don't show up there. We're using the Scitex because that's what the printer provided... we have specific settings that we are supposed to use that don't seem to work with Distiller as the PPD (ie, the PDF produced is incorrect).

It seems like your graphic is the offender here on page 2. What format was that graphic created in (TIFF, JPEG, etc) and could you open it (in Photoshop, Ai, etc) and "resave" it? I've found Flushing errors when the graphic was RGB (inadvertently) placed in Quark to all sorts of wierd stuff. If its an EPS, maybe saving to an older version (I usually go with 5.5/5.0) and convert fonts to outlines (in Ai). It may also contain a TTF that is corrupt? First, have you tried going to Quark's site and installing the free Export to PDF Xtension? Upgrade 4.0 to 4.11 as well... Are you using Scitex as the PPD? Why not Acrobat Distiller instead, since you are after all making a PDF in the end? I've used Ventura (4.11) all the way to Quark in producing PDFs and believe me, some crappy graphic/font/whatever can produce weird results. Try another thing to verify if it is a graphic issue. Print to .ps pages 1, and then 3-xxx, skip the "offending" page and that will narrow down your "issues" to that graphic (most likely the case). I've had to print 2K+ pages of books and we had to do that in order to not hold the web jobs while finding the offensive page. If the doc. is fairly large, breaking it up in X number of pages may also help. BY NO MEANS leave Win2K...I just got it on my laptop and its pretty stable and reliable. I can crank out Photoshop, Ai, Quark, powerpoint and format a CDRW with no hiccups at the same time....on a laptop! Don't let a graphic (or font) issue steer you away from stability and productivity. 98 has so much more issues ultimately in the end... BTW, do you have the latest and greatest PS driver? HTH!

We are creating PDFs for each article, approximately 4-8 pages each and including high-res (600 dpi from a drum scanner) figures/pictures. We are using Quark 4.1 on Windows 2000 (not sure of the build). Our exact technique involves printing the file from Quark to the Scitex PS bridge to Distiller, which generally shuts down and doesn't create a PDF once it hits a page with a figure on it. Here is a sample from the Distiller log file when this happens: %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%% %%[Page: 1]%% %%[Page: 2]%% %%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: y ]%% Stack: -save- %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%% %%[ Warning: PostScript error.

So far the only guaranteed solution we have is to revert to Win98/ME, which isn't really an option considering our network architecture. Does anyone have any suggestions as to a solution?

Acck!! I didn't know it did that, but it sounds extraordinarily sensible! Beginning users often print to the printer, think that nothing happens, and give up. Or end up using the driver to print to file and distill manually, a terrible waste of their time. Anything that eases the initial acceptance of Acrobat must be a Good Thing in my view. Another good reason is that in Win2K the user does not in general have the rights to put files just anywhere.

That way you have one hi-res quark doc. and 2 PDF versions? Also, Mac people (some) don't seem to get it (due to not working on any other platform) that saving files and using correct extensions are key. This is where I think web experience (web meaning - internet) helps. You can't believe the crap filenames I get for Quark docs, as an example, such as a ".qx" file for Quark when it should be ".qxd"... I have made it a standard now on my end to save everything in PC or ASCII format, FTP's are painless and you can send ASCII through e-mail better as well. Why leave that extra data fork in there when you get simple files...ever open a Mac ZIP disk on a PC? It has crap all over the place. I dunno what (some) Mac people are afraid of in just saving it in PC format, its as virgin as it gets. I mean, wasn't that the whole Steve Job's selling point...that macs can "open" PC files???? Regardless, I hope that file goes out well for you. Take care!

If we didn't have to send our copy to the authors, we wouldn't use them at all. Our TIFFs are scanned to the percentage we need them to be, so the hi-res scans are the right size. Since we have the hi-res scans done by our printer, we have to talk to them about the format they are saving them in. All indications are they're saving them in Mac format though. Thanks, Justin >>> 04/13/01 01:35PM >>> The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ Another thing, sometimes w/ memory issues, are the original photos in TIF format larger than what is in the "picture box" in Quark? If so, you may try cropping only the photo sized to "what you need" and that will save your memory size as well... Its preferrable to have a photo in a picture box @ 100% as oppossed to Quark "faking" the scaling (-100% or +100%)... Also, always save the TIFFs in PC (ASCII) format, it translates better and Macs can open PC TIFFs in the first place. One work around we did was simply take that buggy TIFF in Photoshop, Select All marquee, CUT, create NEW doc, PASTE... Save As..TIF and it worked. You may also have a corrupt ppd as a last resort. In order to look for stray TTFs, try doing a "Find" of fonts that show up in usage. Replace or delete text box w/ T1 text. Also, since you're printing direct to Scitex drive, WHY are you placing lo-res FPOs???? Why not the originals in the first place? Sounds like your printer needs to be doing/helping you w/ some of the legwork here.... Change those TIFFs from Binary to ASCII and that will save you a ton of space and FTP better as well...

The graphic is a TIFF but may have been scanned on a Mac system and converted to PC, or originally saved in a different format and converted to a TIFF. I"ll be investigating that ASAP. Also, if I distill the file with out low-res placement scans in place instead of the final high-res scans, it works. According to the Quark usage utility, there are no TTFs used in the file, but it's been my experience that sometimes there are fonts present in the document that don't show up there. We're using the Scitex because that's what the printer provided... we have specific settings that we are supposed to use that don't seem to work with Distiller as the PPD (ie, the PDF produced is incorrect).

Justin >>> 04/13/01 12:29PM >>> The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ Justin, I am using Win2K on a laptop and distill fine. It seems like your graphic is the offender here on page 2. What format was that graphic created in (TIFF, JPEG, etc) and could you open it (in Photoshop, Ai, etc) and "resave" it? I've found Flushing errors when the graphic was RGB (inadvertently) placed in Quark to all sorts of wierd stuff. If its an EPS, maybe saving to an older version (I usually go with 5.5/5.0) and convert fonts to outlines (in Ai). It may also contain a TTF that is corrupt? First, have you tried going to Quark's site and installing the free Export to PDF Xtension? Upgrade 4.0 to 4.11 as well... Are you using Scitex as the PPD? Why not Acrobat Distiller instead, since you are after all making a PDF in the end? I've used Ventura (4.11) all the way to Quark in producing PDFs and believe me, some crappy graphic/font/whatever can produce weird results. Try another thing to verify if it is a graphic issue. Print to .ps pages 1, and then 3-xxx, skip the "offending" page and that will narrow down your "issues" to that graphic (most likely the case). I've had to print 2K+ pages of books and we had to do that in order to not hold the web jobs while finding the offensive page. If the doc. is fairly large, breaking it up in X number of pages may also help. BY NO MEANS leave Win2K...I just got it on my laptop and its pretty stable and reliable. I can crank out Photoshop, Ai, Quark, powerpoint and format a CDRW with no hiccups at the same time....on a laptop! Don't let a graphic (or font) issue steer you away from stability and productivity. 98 has so much more issues ultimately in the end... BTW, do you have the latest and greatest PS driver? HTH!

We are creating PDFs for each article, approximately 4-8 pages each and including high-res (600 dpi from a drum scanner) figures/pictures. We are using Quark 4.1 on Windows 2000 (not sure of the build). Our exact technique involves printing the file from Quark to the Scitex PS bridge to Distiller, which generally shuts down and doesn't create a PDF once it hits a page with a figure on it. Here is a sample from the Distiller log file when this happens: %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%% %%[Page: 1]%% %%[Page: 2]%% %%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: y ]%% Stack: -save- %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%% %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %% We have been told various things, including that Win2000 doesn't and never will support PS operations and that deleting all True Type fonts except the system fonts will make it work (not true so far). So far the only guaranteed solution we have is to revert to Win98/ME, which isn't really an option considering our network architecture. Does anyone have any suggestions as to a solution?

I am trying to find out if this new version supports being installed to desktops from a network installation point, so we can decide how best to upgrade the current Adobe 4 users. The literature sure SOUNDS like it will: "deploying or updating Acobat 5.0 across a networked enterprise with an installer designed to work with network deployment tools" (Acrobat 5.0 New Features-Support Knowledgebase) But when I contacted Tech Support for confirmation, I was told that this just meant for already created PDF files, not the program, and that they do not support or recommend installing the application from a network point (as was/is the case for Acrobat 4). I had contacted Customer Service last week, who affirmed that it COULD be set up from a Network install point. So I'm mightily confused (I was afraid if I called Tech Support back again, I'd get another answer and be even more confused! 8->>). Hopefully someone could shed some light on this for me, from personal experience or knowledge?? (I'm on digest, so please copy me directly with any replies.) Thanks!

I need to scan a bunch of forms and turn them into PDFs. These forms do not need to be OCRd but we will need to add fields on top of them and stream them through the web so file size is important. I have tried scanning a few myself as well as having Kinkos do a couple for me. The problem I am having is getting them straight and cleaned up. I have PitStop but when I used it to deskew the page, the lines all became stair stepped and looked terrible. Also when I tried to remove some lines that were scanned from the shadow of the paper, PitStop deleted the entire contents of the page. I need all the suggestions that I can get. First what hardware would you recommend for scanning forms (make and model)? What software would you recommend for scanning forms? What software would you recommend for cleaning up and straightening scanned forms? Also, I really thought that PitStop Professional was going to be the tool to use for this project. That is why I purchased it. I am doing something wrong? Thanks for your help. ===== Ivy Wood Streampoint Financial, Inc.

Frankly, I'd suggest (cough, cough) outsourcing instead - it's liable to be far more cost-effective for your needs. Your scanning and form-field work can be performed, quality-controlled, documented and delivered to your exact specification before you've completed purchase, installation, training, on scanners, software, etc, etc. >Also, I really thought that PitStop Professional was going to be the tool >to use for this project.

Clearly, if it does print you haven't hit a hard limit like 2 GB for the maximum size of a file. To speed up this particular exercise (a) be sure to select the highest appropriate level of PostScript. Level 1 will generate much larger files by a long way, as well as requiring decompression time (b) be sure PRINT AS IMAGE is not selected (c) the usual guidelines for disk: if possible read and write from and to physically separate disks, locally connected (not networked), high speed (nice fast SCSI). Your case is not defined in enough detail to even suggest whether the times are reasonable. Monochrome scans at 150 dpi? Colour scans at 600 dpi? The second will probably take over 350 times longer and more resources than the first... Consider whether you can reduce the scan sizes.

Hope to explain the situation as best as I can: Measure? (don't sneer me) It was just based and compared their file sizes of different job settings made from different computers. The real problem is that one of my computer creates pdf only with very low resolution and I want to understand why and solve it. The resolution of PS is 1200x1200. Do you mean printer? Tried with Oki and FujiXerox printer through NT. The images were obtained through print screen. (Please, don't let me reinstall all the computer from OS....) thanks and regards, Helio from Andy: 1. How do you KNOW this? That is, how are you measuring the resolution of the images in your PDF file? 2. What resolution are the images in the PostScript file? from Peter: Where do you print from? Some Applications can reduce the size of images according to the dpi/spi settings. E.g. When printing from XP a 300 dpi Tiff and a Output set to 300 dpi/60lpi, then the resolution of the tiff gets reduces. There is an option to send TIFF as Highres (don´t know the english translation) What is the resolution of the original images > I don't know what's happening.

Ok, comparing file sizes can give you a clue, but PDF compression can be very effective. It is best to use a tool. Quite A Box Of Tricks has an info tool that can be used to check image resolution. Although it is commercial, you can do this with the free demo. It is important to measure, before making too many assumptions. > The > real problem is > that one of my computer creates pdf only with very low > resolution and I want > to understand why and solve it. > The resolution of PS is 1200x1200. How do you know? That is, what method did you use to set this resolution, which is extremely high and unusual? > Do you mean printer? Tried with Oki and FujiXerox printer through NT. You should usually be using the Distiller printer driver. > The images were obtained through print screen. I don't understand this. When you use print screen to make images they WILL be 72 dpi - how can they be more? I think we need to understand your workflow in more detail. Please describe ALL the steps you do, so that we could do exactly the same task on our own computers without needing to see your computer.

I changed the job option settings of Distiller (4.06) to increase the resolution but the result is the same every time I convert my postscript file to pdf, i.e., only 72 dpi. (ironically, "screen optimized" setting is 72dpi). Then, I erased all job options inside of Distiller setting directory. I didn't know that Distiller creates a default job automatically. (ironically the setting of this new job was 72dpi). Deleted all Distiller concern in registry before reinstall but no good results. Installed and uninstalled hundred times and the result is same.... Conclusion: still can not get any pdf more than 72dpi. Anyone can help me to understand this? Is there any setting that I didn't made?

Adobe didn't post to this list. Specifically to answer your question ... Acrobat Reader 5 without search for all Windows'9x/Me/NT 4/2000 is available as a single download of 8.6 mbytes for French, German and English. Acrobat Reader 5 with search for all Windows'9x/Me/NT 4/2000 is available as a single download of 9.9 mbytes for French, German, and English. Acrobat Reader 5 for all PowerMacs, MacOS 8.6 or later, with or without search is available as a download. In this case, you download a "stub" of less than 400k which then uses your internet connection to download and install the rest of either 10 mbytes or 11 mbytes (search option). Again French, German, and English. Other languages to be made available in the upcoming weeks and months for the above configurations. Likewise, UNIX is later. All other configurations download the version of Reader that was previously available. For example, for Windows 3.x, Acrobat Reader 3.01 is available as a single download of 3.9 mbytes. - Dov At 4/18/2001 11:26 AM, Chris Uschan wrote: >TO PDFers > >Moreover... like 4.x readers... have I overlooked the Acrobat Reader with Search ? > >Folks, every time a Reader version is released we go thru the same issues.... > >unix readers avail ? >readers with / without search ? >readers prior to the full acrobat ? > >What are the answers to the above ?

We are, of course, working hard to reduce the number of ads we take in on film but generally send anywhere between two and a dozen copy-dot pages per issue. We have the scans done as five-file DCS files and send them in two forms: 1. We print the DCS data into the PS using a Quark XPress extension called SmartXT by Total Integration; 2. We print the DCS data into the PS using a separated workflow and create a composite PDF using Seps2Comp by Intense Software now CreoScitex. Each workflow has its shortcomings and each has its strengths. The SmartXT method seems to go through the system the quickest of the two (although still very slow by comparison to non-copydot data) methods and can be automated using BatchPrint and Distiller hotfolders. But it doesn't proof or display very well and we have to milk the proofers to get the semi-decent proofs we do. The Seps2Comp workflow, on the other hand displays dot-for-dot and easily gives us a wonderful proof. The problem with it is it's ungodly slow even on G4s, produces huge files, and we haven't found a way to automate it yet. It does, however, seem to have the widest compatibility with the rips we've encountered so far. Even at that, there are still printers who can not handle copy-dot scans in PDF files (RRDonnelly being a noteworthy example). The rips we've found to be compatible with copy-dot/PDF files are PCC-Creo (Seps2Comp method only at this time) and Harlequin (both Seps2Comp and SmartXT). The Rampage rips are apparently not compatible with copy-dot/PDF files, in our experience, so far. Also, the scans we've found to be best for our workflow are coming from the Eskofot scanners. We're having trouble with but are still experimenting with scans from the Creo Renaissance scanners. Anyway, hope that helps, --bd-- Bob Dawson Prepress Director TL Enterprises, Inc.

I'll try this Box. But Andy and all, Other computers, with almost same envirorment and same hardware specification create pdf normally. I can not understand what could be cause. Procedure to create pdf: >From Interleaf we convert to post leaf (pl) >From pl, convert to postscript. Here, we customized an application, which we're using a long time ago and never had this problem. >From ps file, we just drag it into Distiller. Only on Distiller we make resolution adjustments. That's all. Nothing complicated. I suppose that some other software than Distiller (or Acrobat) is doing something that I could not detect. Or Distiller has properties that, even changing the job options, anything happens. Thanks helio I think we need to understand your workflow in more detail. Please describe ALL the steps you do, so that we could do exactly the same task on our own computers without needing to see your computer.

Following is the thread: In <20010419035043.86B3DF17F4@sierra.onr.com>, on 04/19/01 at 10:34 AM, "Dr. Jeffrey Race" said: >One page refuses to print in Nav 4.61: > >It reports there are no pages to print. However I can >do a Print Screen fine. >If I I also cannot print it. >What is going on? >Jeffrey Race Up on the top right is a PDF help url. It explains that the site uses Acrobat PDF file format extensively. The no-print behavior is an artifact of that program. Why would this be so, and what should be fixed so that one can print from the site? Or is this, as is often the case in the software industry, a "vendor feature" (i.e. defeat printing) rather than a "victim's bug". Any illumination appreciated.

Ah, that's important. You can do some simple tests to find out whether the problem is in Distiller, or somewhere else in the workflow. Make a PostScript file on a "good" system and also one on the "bad" system. Now, distill both of these files on the system they were made. Check that you see the results you expect - with good files on the "good" system and bad files on the "bad" system. Next, swap over. Distill the file from the "bad" system on the "good" system. And distill the file from the "good" system on the "bad" system. Keep careful notes, I get very confused in this kind of exercise. Finally: was the problem from the PostScript file (swapped over)? Was the problem from Distiller (stayed on the same system)? Or something else?

It uses double-128bit encryption on a page by page basis of the document with full "users and groups" support. Of course, if you don't need all of that, there are cheaper options...

There are pieces on using multiple (non-Latin font) languages on Windows and OS/2, on how and why to stop HTML in e-mail, on spam-tracing and -eradication techniques, and on other subjects. Several of these have appeared in a local rag (Bangkok Post Database [computer section]). This is a labor of love but hints from readers suggest these pieces contain useful insights found nowhere else. I'd welcome comments from any of you on how to improve any of these pieces, as well as ideas where they might be published in hardcopy if doing so would be a good idea. These articles (and their improved successors) will remain as resources on my site so feel free to pass on to others word of their existence and to set up links (or suggest doing so to others who might benefit) (but please inform me if you link).

It uses double-128bit encryption on a page by page basis of the document with full "users and groups" support. Of course, if you don't need all of that, there are cheaper options...

For example, if someone chooses Kansas from a drop down browser form, it would send the info to the server and the server would create (or simple add the PDF page, lets say "tornadoes") to the application form (that everyone gets already, just varies by state to state)? Is that even possible? What options does one have in PDF generation along with a website? Could you send me some website examples of one if possible? So far, my PDF "experience" has been creating pre-press ready files, I haven't yet explored web/database forms to the fullest. We'd like PDFs that are database driven and not just static PDF hyperlinks that one clicks to download. Any help or advice is much appreciated! Thanks!

I have large directories of word documents which I want converted to PDF. I was planning on doing this in a watched folder in Adobe Distiller, but I have just learnt the files have to be in postscript first, not Word. My question is.... How can I automatically convert a whole directory of word docs to .ps (or PDF), without having to open and close each individual file and specify the location to save to? Is there a piece of software similar to Distiller (or in a new version of Adobe Exchange) that will do this for you? Or is there an alternative piece of software that can automatically convert directories of word docs to PDF? Thanks in advance for your help.

If this isn't quite the time or place for my query, please excuse me, but I'm in a bit of a pickle. Briefly ... I'm a book designer and layout artist. I'm set to lay out a book I designed for an association in D.C. My client sent me 4 pieces of art the author had created in MS PowerPoint for this book. My client made a pdf file containing a title page plus a page for each of the 4 figures. When I try to print the pdf file, I get an error message. I'm on a G3 PowerMac, running OS 8.6 with 256 MB o' RAM; my printer's a trusty old GCC Tech Elite 600. The error message I get for the first piece is as follows: ERROR: invalidaccess OFFENDING COMMAND: pathforall STACK: {/cp cvx } {/c cvx} {/l cvx} {/m cvx} -mark- 702.943 591.383 -14.06 9.10031 0.0 606.0 -mark- /Euro /Palatino-Roman -savelevel For all 3 of the remaining figures, the error message is the sam, as follows--just slightly different from the one above: ERROR: invalidaccess OFFENDING COMMAND: pathforall STACK: {/cp cvx } {/c cvx} {/l cvx} {/m cvx} -mark- 703.73 588.237 -14.0599 14.4994 0.0 606.0 -mark- /Euro /Palatino-Roman -savelevel Can anyone help? I need to print those pieces pronto, before morning if at all possible. To wait till I can contact my client so they can print and FedEx the pieces to me, would cost a good30 or so hours. Thank you.

They certainly aren't kosher, though! The most likely source of your problem is what you describe as your "trusty old GCC Elite 600." The GCC printers do not have Adobe PostScript, but rather, an "emulation" by a third party. These printers have been known to numerous problems in emulating the PostScript specification. In some cases, you can actually get updated PostScript emulation ROMs from GCC tech support for a nominal charge. Call them ASAP for your pickles. - Dov At 4/25/2001 10:20 PM, Stephen Tiano wrote: >I'm brand new to the list.

It may be that the trusty old printer isn't as trusty as you think. Try the "print as image" option in Acrobat. The quality won't be great, but you should get it on paper. Or, head for a Kinkos (used here as a generic term for that kind of place) where you can print the file.

I have large directories of word documents which I want converted to PDF. I was planning on doing this in a watched folder in Adobe Distiller, but I have just learnt the files have to be in postscript first, not Word. My question is.... How can I automatically convert a whole directory of word docs to .ps (or PDF), without having to open and close each individual file and specify the location to save to? Is there a piece of software similar to Distiller (or in a new version of Adobe Exchange) that will do this for you? Or is there an alternative piece of software that can automatically convert directories of word docs to PDF? Thanks in advance for your help.

If we go in to Distiller:Font Locations and add the font to the Locations list, the PS then seems to distill the file OK. It's not a big deal by any stretch, but a couple of questions arise, however, that I hope list members might be able to shed some light on: -- Any thoughts on why distiller fails to embedd certain fonts? This only happens on files that came to us as PDF. -- Is there a way to add fonts to the list in a batch? Thanks, --bd-- Bob Dawson Prepress Director TL Enterprises, Inc.

All this information tells you is that your GCC printer cannot properly handle instances of Multiple Master fonts. When a font is not embedded and not resident on the host computer, Acrobat downloads Adobe Sans or Adobe Serif, two very generic Multiple Master Type 1 fonts, along with a set of descriptors that allow these fonts to mimic normal text fonts. The problem of failure that you describe does match other users' experiences with the GCC printers. (2) Illustrator 6 does not claim to be able to open PDF files. That version of Illustrator is approximately five years old. Furthermore, neither the latest version of Illustrator (9.0x) nor Freehand 9 are editors of PDF. They can import, but they do not necessarily preserve all input without either loss or conversion.

( Also using the same principle you can add any of your printers to batch print hard copy as well. ) I'm using NT but depending on your OS Just use find files 'Send To' in Explorer. Mine was under Profiles. It should find a Directory called Send To. Now open Start/settings/printers ( and choose icons view )and right click on your PDF Writer. When you highlight copy this you can then directly paste into the Send To Directory or even create shortcut on Windows Workspace directly. Subsequently you have your Writer as an option in 'File' then 'Send To' in Explorer once you paste into the above mentioned directory. Does this make sense? this sounds really great, however how do I add to my "send to" list? thanks, jim Adair.Broughton@upm-kymmene.com wrote: > > The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com > __________________________________________________________________ > > This was a reference from someone on another list i've used > > 'In Windows Explorer, highlight the entire directory of docs to be > converted > and then used the SEND TO option.

Start-settings-printers Double clic "distiller" there. You have now a window named "Acrobat Distiller" with an empty white square in the middle. (NOTE that I'm not talking on opening Acrobat Distiller through Start-->Programs..... but to double clic on the printer icon instead.) Drag and drop there (in the white square) all the needed Word files. Say yes to any Windows question in the middle. They'll all print to the folder "C:\program files\Acrobat 4.0\Acrobat\PDF Output\ " For every file, though, Distiller will open & close the original application. In this case, Word.

Perhaps I need an extra sprinkling of pixie dust to make it work. Or maybe it won't work with Acrobat Distiller. When I right-click a file and Send To Acrobat Distiller, it merely opens the file--it doesn't print to Distiller. Also, I got a printing error message that said, "This program requires you to print documents with the default printer. Do you want this printer to become your default printer? If you click No, this document will not be printed." I clicked yes. Now Distiller is my default printer (which is fine by me), but still no printing. All that testing was done with a couple of FrameMaker files. Tried it with a Word file, and it seems to have created only a shortcut for my Word file. Strange. This sounded like such a lovely idea, although I hadn't yet come up with a time when it would really help me.

And what do you mean by "the font would be changed?" Does the font style look different? Wrong characters? What? If you don't embed fonts when creating the document and the end-user doesn't have the fonts that you formatted the document with, Acrobat or Acrobat Reader will generate a "faux font" from Adobe Sans or Adobe Serif as appropriate to approximate the look of the font and match the original fonts' general metrics. The only other possibility is if Acrobat/Acrobat Reader on the target system opens a PDF file without embedded fonts but thinks that those fonts are on its system, but those fonts aren't really the same. - Dov At 4/30/2001 01:12 PM, Suzanne.Shomate@eva-tone.com wrote: >Does anyone know why a PDF created on a Mac (Postscript->Distiller->PDF) >would view fine on a Mac, but the font would be changed when viewing on a >PC? > >Thanks- E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 30-Apr-2001 22:00:00-GMT,2295;000000000001 Return-Path: Received: from etrn.binc.net (egprime.binc.net [205.173.176.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA25613 for ; Mon, 30 Apr 2001 15:59:59 -0600 (MDT) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id f3ULrWw10417; Mon, 30 Apr 2001 16:53:32 -0500 Received: by egprime.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.13); Mon, 30 Apr 2001 16:48:10 -0500 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) id f3ULm9w10106; Mon, 30 Apr 2001 16:48:09 -0500 Received: from quite.com (host15.quite.com [193.131.11.80]) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id f3ULm7h10102 for ; Mon, 30 Apr 2001 16:48:07 -0500 Received: from gateway (gateway.quite.com [193.131.11.81]) by quite.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id WAA21333 for ; Mon, 30 Apr 2001 22:48:16 +0100 From: "Aandi Inston" To: Subject: RE: [PDF] PDF Font changes from Mac to PC Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2001 22:48:01 +0100 Message-ID: <000101c0d1bf$3c2e4d40$510b83c1@gateway.quite.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook 8.5, Build 4.71.2173.0 In-Reply-To: Importance: Normal X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Sender: owner-pdf@lists.pdfzone.com Reply-To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com X-LISTINFO: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/lists.html X-ARCHIVE: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/listarchives.html X-CONTACT: mailto:webmaster@pdfzone.com The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ > My experience is that the viewer has to have the same fonts > on their machine for to be viewed properly.

It seems to work very well, but I would like to find out a little more about the extent of that support. Adobe do not seem to have any information available. I wondered if anyone has any idea about how I can find out more.

If you are distributing the file to other users, you would normally want to embed the fonts (and subset to keep the file size down). The only reasons I can think of that a font is not embedded is your initial PostScript file does not contain the font information, your Distiller settings are set to embed/subset, or the font does not allow it or. The first two can be solved by adjusting your settings. If the font does not allow embedding, a different font should be used.

However, it could be that this is not possible because of the password protection of the document. * find someone to try to crack the document (consider this to be an emergency procedure, where you have no way to contact the creator of the document anymore, and/or you have all the rights for the document). If you don't have the rights to the document, don't even bother trying to crack it, as you will do an illegal act by cracking the document. Hope, this can help.

I was planning on doing this in a watched folder in Adobe Distiller, but I have just learnt the files have to be in postscript first, not Word. My question is.... How can I automatically convert a whole directory of word docs to .ps (or PDF), without having to open and close each individual file and specify the location to save to? Is there a piece of software similar to Distiller (or in a new version of Adobe Exchange) that will do this for you? Or is there an alternative piece of software that can automatically convert directories of word docs to PDF? ________________________________________________________________ Answers: 1. Use Distiller version 4.0 and download 'PDFLinks' a free vb programme that converts word to ps. (Windows NT) http://www.byteryte.nl/html/tooling.html 2. Use Distiller version 4.0 and download free vb6 code that converts word to ps http://www.planetpdf.com/mainpage.asp?menuid=80&webpageid=350 (Windows 95) Problem - we are using version 3.0, version 5.0 is latest and not sure if you can still buy v 4.0 3. Use Distiller version 5.0 and write your own visual basic program to convert from word to ps 4. Add the PDF Writer or Distiller in the Windows Explorer "Send to" option, then send the whole directory there. (But as far as I can see you still need to specify file name and location for each file and close them down afterwards). 5. Use 'Activepdf Server and Doc Converter' http://www.activepdf.com/default.asp instead of Adobe. A piece of software which claims to do this. (Have no experience of this). 6. Use mac's instead.

Our customers are starting to complain about not being able to "search" (they mean Find) in some of the PDFs. Some you can do a Find with no problem, others only Find some instances of the text you search for. I checked the Acrobat Forum for any information regarding this problem and didn't find much--a reference to fonts possibly being the culprit. Does anyone on this list know of this problem and what I might do to alleviate this? Some background on how we create our PDFs: We maintain two documentation formats (well, three, but we're not making PDFs from WordPerfect, yet): Word 95 and Word 2000. We are in the process of converting all documentation to Word 2000, but it'll take a while to do this. However, we still need to edit the Word 95 documents and have dedicated machines to accomplish this. These machines have Windows 95 and Acrobat 3.0. To create PDFs we use the Create Adobe PDF function (PDFWriter). Most other machines are Windows NT with Acrobat 4.05 and Word 2000. We create PDFs from these machines using the PDFMaker macro. In both cases, we embed all fonts (within the limits of either version of Acrobat). Also, in case this has something to do with the Find problem, many of our documents were once WordPerfect documents that were converted to Word 95 and sometimes converted once more to Word 2000. It seems that any of the documents that were created from Word 95 (and those that were later converted to Word 2000) have this Find problem, while the native Word 2000 documents do not. Thanks for any suggestions you may have.

I work for a publishing company and we have an author training manual that will be printed from PDF. Now, this author also wants to create a work disc (on CD) that contains the full volume of his manual. Now this is not a problem as we can use the PDF files to create the work disc. Unfortunately, he also wants trainers to interact with certain pages of the book. Although I have only been given half of the details, I think this basically means that the manual will be displayed on a projector with the pages showing examples in a given subject and he will then insert examples provided by the students. It has been indicated that some examples may be numbers and some mathematics may be involved. At first I thought of PDF forms, as examples can be held in containers (fields), but when I heard there may be some mathematics involved I became stumped. This training manual will user Acrobat Reader which will be present on the disc and any data inserted into the fields will not need to be saved. Can PDF forms do this? or am I looking in the wrong direction? Can I use the PDF files to create this work disc (and how) or can someone suggest an alternative route. I would appreciate any help you may give. Regards, Andy Jones.

Am I missing some setting in Acrobat? Thanks very much.

I think you must have missed the three replies that this message already received, so I will quote them for you: 1. (Todd Reid: Quark, Inc.) XPress has a page size limit of 1219.2 x 1219.2 mm. There is no workaround for this. 2. (John Roberds) Try building the document half size and printing at 200% 3.

You cannot embed a QuickTime (VR or other) movie in a PDF. It will always need to be distributed with the PDF in the same link structure. The safest way to do this is to create a folder below the PDF, say called 'media'. Put the QTVR in that folder. Make sure it is 'flattened' for cross platform delivery. Put the Acrobat file in the folder above the media folder, open it in Acrobat, place the QuickTime file on the Acrobat page and then save as ... the Acrobat file. This should work. Note: QuickTime VR in Acrobat 4 gives some cursor problems - flashing between the movie cursor and the builtin QuickTime cursors. In Acrobat 5.0 this has been sorted out - THANKS ADOBE! Anyone know how to 'control' QuickTime with Acrobat with javascript? is there a 3rd party plugin or some un documented stuff??? >Date: Thu, 3 May 2001 04:59:07 +0700 >From: "marcello s." >Subject: [PDF] How to 'embed/include' QuicktimeVR movie in a PDF? or >i need a relative link? > >The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com >__________________________________________________________________ > >hello, >I just make a PDF and place a QuicktimeVR movie. >It plays well on my local machine. >But when I move it to another computer it keep asking for the 'absolute'(?) >address, which is a folder in my the drive C. > >1.

Subsequently, we get .pdf ads from a wide variety of sources and we send completed .pdf pages to a variety of printers (Macs, Quark, and Acrobat 4). One of our printers "washes" all of the .pdf pages through PitStop so all the pages rip correctly.

I don't know about other products that perform preflight checks and clean up files. But PitStop is very useful for making a wide variety of changes to the PDF file without having to resort to going back to the original layout file (in our case, PageMaker). You can revise text (to some extent), globally change colors or color descriptions, import bitmaps, edit vectors, change the clipping paths images (e.g. cropped images), etc. We use PitStop to perform minor changes. For extensive changes we go back to the originals. But for such things as putting a slug line on each page (which we did to restrict prerelease of a publication before a certain date), it worked quite well, wasn't too fussy, and was easy to learn. ------------------- Michael Brady jbrady@email.unc.edu http://www.unc.edu/~jbrady/index.html E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8-May-2001 18:56:01-GMT,2067;000000000001 Return-Path: Received: from etrn.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [205.173.176.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA06707 for ; Tue, 8 May 2001 12:56:00 -0600 (MDT) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id f48IrnM19261; Tue, 8 May 2001 13:53:49 -0500 Received: by egprime.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.13); Tue, 8 May 2001 13:46:48 -0500 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) id f48Ikle18908; Tue, 8 May 2001 13:46:47 -0500 Received: from mastercard.com (209-64-117-201.mastercard.com [209.64.117.201]) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id f48Ikk618904 for ; Tue, 8 May 2001 13:46:46 -0500 Subject: [PDF] Word File Names To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com X-Mailer: Lotus Notes Release 5.0.3 March 21, 2000 Message-ID: From: "Katrina Haggerty" Date: Tue, 8 May 2001 13:46:43 -0500 X-MIMETrack: Serialize by Router on MCNSTL40/MASTERCARD(Release 5.0.6a |January 17, 2001) at 05/08/2001 01:46:46 PM MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-pdf@lists.pdfzone.com Reply-To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com X-LISTINFO: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/lists.html X-ARCHIVE: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/listarchives.html X-CONTACT: mailto:webmaster@pdfzone.com The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ I am creating pdf files from Word 97 on Windows NT with Acrobat 5.0.

We have just finished making some large Acrobat PDF files with many embedded QuickTime movies (like magazine pages - click on the pictures to start-stop them as video-clips) for delivery on CD-ROM. They work fine with default memory on Windows and Macs with Reader 4/QuickTime 4. They work fine on Windows with Reader 5/QT5 - on Macs, they cough and freeze after a couple of videos. Raise the Reader Memory from default to 25,000 and they run fine. Also tried them with Reader 5/QT4 and no matter what you did, they froze very frequently. (Haven't tried that combo in Windows yet). Clearly we have significant differences in memory requirements with Reader 5 and QT5 on the Mac versions. Anyone else noticed these issues? -- ============================================ Lyndon Sharp Head, Interactive Design Group (Educational multimedia CD-ROM and website development) Board of Studies NSW, Sydney, Australia -------------------------------------------- Website manager - Board of Studies NSW http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au Board of Studies K-6 website http://www.bosnsw-k6.nsw.edu.au Gallipoli and the Anzacs http://www.anzacsite.gov.au Teaching Australian Heritage http://www.teachingheritage.nsw.edu.au Australian Music Examination Board (NSW) http://www.ameb.nsw.edu.au -------------------------------------------- lyndons@ozemail.com.au syllabus@ozemail.com.au bosnsw@tpg.com.au lysharp@boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au -------------------------------------------- Phone: +(61) 2 9367 8319 Mobile: 0419 211 120 Fax: +(61) 2 9262 6426 -------------------------------------------- Unless explicitly attributed, the opinions expressed do not necessarily represent the official position of The Office of the Board of Studies NSW.

Max's e.mail only stated that it was not recommended due to the readers use of system resources. Is there any more detailed information as to why they should only install reader locally?

There is essentially nothing against _installing_ (deploying) Reader via netword. However, _running_ Reader over the network is not recommended. In other words, if your IT department deploys Reader via the network, this is good. But after that deployment, the users will have Reader on their machine, and run it locally. Hope, this can help.

It is not compatible with Macintosh or any handheld devices." And from Amazon's download page: "*Please note that at this time there are no Macintosh or Linux-compatible versions of the Acrobat eBook Reader." Doubting this, I checked Adobe's website and found the eBook reader offered for Mac as well as Windows. When I tried to download the installer, however, retrieval failed several times, although the website allowed me to register, choose to download a Mac version and move on to the page that says "You are now downloading the Adobe® Acrobat® eBook Reader." Is there a problem with the Mac version of the eBook Reader?

There is essentially nothing against _installing_ (deploying) Reader via netword. However, _running_ Reader over the network is not recommended. In other words, if your IT department deploys Reader via the network, this is good. But after that deployment, the users will have Reader on their machine, and run it locally. Hope, this can help.

I have just upgraded to the latest version - it requires you to confirm "ownership" of the books downloaded which took me all of 5 minutes. Be sure to back up your software after purchases - if you upgrade your system software it may wipe out information that eBook Reader needs. The eBook Reader support team has been phenomenal in the process of problems, purchases and upgrades. I had to do some consulting in NYC yesterday & I found myself reading an eBook on the train & loving it.

The "not so nice thing" what I see right now is that it only works with local copies of these programs and worsk via a desktop printer - which can cause problems some times.

There is essentially nothing against _installing_ (deploying) Reader via netword. However, _running_ Reader over the network is not recommended. In other words, if your IT department deploys Reader via the network, this is good. But after that deployment, the users will have Reader on their machine, and run it locally. Hope, this can help.

I want to use extensive linking across all chapters (for example, combined table of contents and index), and also link from long lists of item names to individual item descriptions.

However, the way I do this sort of job now tends to be through the pdf maker functions in MS Word. I can maintain 90% of my cross document & navigational links this way, hand tuning the rest. I use Compose mostly checking and fixing broken links (the audit functions) these days. When a document has to be re-done, I generally re-gen the entire document unless only a page or two changes. I hope this helps.

If I have a button, can I create a mouseUp action that activates a particular toolbar (i.e. TouchupText, Hand, Form). Project overview: I need to copy page content from one document to another without too much user interaction. The page content is actually text (w/ font embedded), but I need to preserve the format so I thought to use the Object touchUp tool to do this (simple Copy&Paste).

The newspaper is mainly black and white although the front and back covers have 1 spot colour. Doing the front and back pages we just substitute cyan for the spot colour (which is what the printer uses as it's spot chanel). This works fine. Doing the inside pages we want to produce greyscale pages. To achieve this in Pagemaker is fine. I print the pages to postscript files and under the colour settings in the print dialogue box I just tick the option to "print colours in black" and anything with any colour on the page goes to black (or grey actually) in the pdf file. However, we are currently migrating to InDesign and I cannot achieve the same result in ID. I specify (under the printer properties in the printer dialogue box) that the file should be printed greyscale rather than colour. Yet when I have created the pdf file it still contains colour (I can experiment with this by putting a colour box on the page and if I use the above mechanism in PM it converts to greyscale, but in ID it stays colour). Now our pages only contain information on the black plate (we are careful to ensure that all images etc are greyscale) and the file has no information on the C,M and Y plates but it is still a CMYK, rather than greyscale, file and a bit of a pain. I am running PM 6.52 and ID 1.52 on a PC (PIII 667MHz and 256MB RAM) running WinNT service Pack 6. I use Adobe Acrobat 4 and print to Acrobat Distiller as the printer in ID and use the Distiller ppd file when printing from PM. The machines which run PM use the HP driver for our HP4MV printer in combination with the distiller ppd (this allows me to specify a custom page size). The machine which runs ID usually prints to the HP 4MV using the Adobe postscript driver but when I print to file in ID I use Acrobat Distiller as the Printer (again allowing me to specify a custom page size). Just by the by I can't see where to specify a ppd in the print dialogue box in ID. Does anyone know a way around this - I don't want to buy Quiteaboxoftricks as we don't really have the money to buy it and I believe I should be able to control the file enough to ensure it is a greyscale, rather than a CMYK file.

Ideally you would be authoring the document in an application that could automate the linking process for you -- perhaps FrameMaker or MS Word. If that is not possible and you are linking manually, I would suggest using named destinations in each output file. Using our Name It plug-in you could create named destinations for each bookmark, then link to those within the same file, or from other files. If you then updated the document, you could re-generate the named destinations and, even if the sections had moved, the inter-document links from other files would still work, because they use the name rather than a hard-coded page and view.

I would else be happy if I could produce a PDF file from the command line, also using the PDFwriter driver. The application I'm maintening works currently with postscript files, and this will be achieved by redirecting output of the files into the desired one. Example: type file1.ps > TargetFile.ps type file2.ps >> TargetFile.ps The same way doesn't work with PDF (because of compression), so I'm looking for a similar possibility. I found documentation of the switches /p, /t and /n of acrobat.exe, but nothing about the switches /o, /s and /h, which seem to be understood by this program.

        Yes, but NOT using Adobe products.  None of them support such a feature.  You will need to invest in a 3rd party product such as AppendPDF from Appligent (http://www.appligent.com).


The application I'm maintening works currently with postscript files, and
this will be achieved by redirecting output of the files into the desired
one.

The same way doesn't work with PDF (because of compression),

        Actually it doesn't work because PDF is a STRUCTURED file format while Postscript is not.

If I change this to 600 dpi the PDF distiller produces is always "cut" at 105.7 cm. If I select the "touch up object tool" in the PDF and mark all (Ctrl+A) I see that there are some "invisible lines (or part of lines)" selected in the white aerea right of the 105.7 cm. I played around with distiller settings but nothing did help. This seems to have nothing to do with the complexity of the CAD drawing: even a single large square is cut at the 105.7 cm. Any suggestions?

Yes, Distiller cannot be set up on a server "legally" unless each person using it on the network has a vaild full copy of Acrobat, and anyone creating and marketing a technology that would possibly enable people to break this licencing agreement would probably hear from Adobes lawyers. Agfa has licenced the Normalizer from Adobe in such a way that allows us to run Agfa Apogee Create for Windows NT both locally or as a server based system. It can be printed to from both Mac and PC. you can also drag and drop into hot folders. You can select it in Macintosh Chooser. This has been shipping for over a year. Each hot folder or AppleTalk Channel can have its own properties. for example, you could have one hot folder or AppleTalk Channel set up so that it converts all non white type to knock-out, no matter what the settings are in the PostScript, and another hot folder or AppleTalk Channel to convert all separated PostScript to composite PDF, and with the new "Overprint Preview" option (in Acrobat 5, under the View menu) you can see how each plate will overprint. hope this helps.

I hope someone has some experience with this. My collaborator (AdamZ) is putting the PDFs on the server on his end in this way: What I did is create an acrobat folder on the IIS5 server. There's no restricted permissions on the folder access through the web server. Then I made a couple usernames/passwords that have WebDAV authoring permissions to that folder in the web. The WebDAV server (IIS5) was set in the Acrobat 5 preferences, and a PDF was made available in the acrobat folder on IIS. When we open the PDF through a web browser, you can post comments and when you press upload it asks for the username/password. The IIS5 logs show that a username.FDF file has been created on the server. However, when locating the file, it is nowhere to be found. Furthermore, posting online comments from within the browser on the server, doesn't save the comments either... they're lost the next time the same PDF is opened. -Adamz Has anyone set this kind of thing up?

You can also create your own general information attribute (e.i. "Job No", "Client Name") and insert a value into it. If you have a copy of Acrobat v5 on hand, you could do this sort of thing using a batch sequence.

Disappointed in two things: 1) After many hours of frustration over two work days I still do not have Adobe Acrobat 5.0 working on my office PC (Win2K platform). 2) The technical support has not been very good. I did follow the installation instructions and answered "yes" to the deletion of the earlier version of Acrobat which seems to be the source of my problems. It seems that this first installation has now corrupted my system in such a way that no matter how I now try to install Acrobat 5.0, it always fails to execute --- when I try to execute Acrobat 5.0 the splash screen comes up momentarily and then disappears (process is killed). After explaining the problem in detail that I was having with the installation to a technical support person at Adobe he stated that I had too many fonts and should try to remove some of them --- I reluctantly took his advice and did indeed try this; but, this was just a waste of time. He also suggested that I reboot in safe mode --- this I finally did do; but, again was just a waste of time. The technical support person did finally admit that he knew very little about Win2K. Is it uncommon to use Acrobat 5.0 on Win2K? My best guess is that the installation procedure being used for Adobe Acrobat 5.0 on a Win2K platform needs more work. And, it is clearly bad programing practice to give no error messages during the installation and no error messages when it will not execute properly. Adobe should be a little more careful before releasing their software and try to provide better technical support for these new releases. --V. P.

I am forwarding your account of your encounter with Adobe Tech Support to the management of that group such that they can correct their problems and improve their service. Some additional ideas and information: (1) It is exceptionally common to use Acrobat 5 under Windows 2000. Within Adobe, it is the most common platform on which Acrobat is run. (2) How many fonts did you have installed? I have nearly 1300 typefaces installed on my Windows 2000 system (combination of TrueType, OpenType, Type 1 single masters, and Type 1 Multiple Masters) without any problems. There is no known problem installing or using Acrobat with large numbers of fonts (or at least in the order of magnitude that I have installed). (3) Installation of Acrobat does require "Administrator" privileges. (4) We have heard of situations in which Acrobat 5 installation fails due to active antivirus software that silently interferes with the operations of the installer. - Dov At 5/10/2001 02:51 PM, Virgil Stokes wrote: >I recently purchased the Adobe Acrobat 5.0 upgrade (previously >had Adobe Acrobat 4.05a) and I am quite disappointed. > >Disappointed in two things: >1) After many hours of frustration over two work days I still do not have > Adobe Acrobat 5.0 working on my office PC (Win2K platform). >2) The technical support has not been very good. > >I did follow the installation instructions and answered "yes" to the deletion >of the earlier version of Acrobat which seems to be the source of my problems. >It seems that this first installation has now corrupted my system in such a >way that no matter how I now try to install Acrobat 5.0, it always fails to >execute --- when I try to execute Acrobat 5.0 the splash >screen comes up momentarily and then disappears (process is killed). > >After explaining the problem in detail that I was having with the installation >to a technical support person at Adobe he stated that I had too many fonts >and should try to remove some of them --- I reluctantly took his advice and did >indeed try this; but, this was just a waste of time.

You can easily try that when you make an area that is larger then 211.4 cm (2 times 105.7) and output with 300 dpi. Does that work? Or you could go up with the resolution and see if the area shrinks more. If so - someone should check the PS-Code.

What I do is use Ghost to backup my 1st HDD/partition in the most stable state (the nearer freshly installed Win2k etc the better) onto a 2nd HDD/partition and when things go wrong try GoBack first if that don't get u back to a previous stabler state use Ghost to completely restore bit by bit what your HDD was at the time u made the image file. Have fun! By the way I have Acrobat 5 installed no problem. :-) If that makes u feel any better... hee hee!

It's great that I don't have to create the forms fields for these applications, but it makes using my asp template - for populating the forms from our database - a bit more time consuming. Does anyone know of a utility or plugin that would extract or output the names of form fields from a PDF? I'm on a Win2k platform.

This machine was using Acrobat 3.0 without any problem. Now, when I try to use the Distiller Printer from Microsoft Word 97, I receive the following error message: Font Capture: Acrodist.exe - Application Error The exception unknown software exception (0xc00000fd) occurred in the application at location 0x02e0532e. Here's some additional info: 1) I can generate pdf files using Pdfwriter. 2) I can generate pdf files using Distiller's watched folder and a postscript file. I've searched Adobe tech support, Microsoft tech support, and the web. I can't search the Adobe user-to-user forums because they've been indexing for the last 2 days (very frustrating). Can anyone help? I've got the Dr. Watson stack dump from the error if you think that might be useful. Thanks in Advance, Robert Blackberg Sr. Business Analyst Fiserv, Inc.

However when I create a new PDF with distiller the same bit of code comes
out in UNICODE

        What do you mean "it comes out in Unicode"?  PDF files themselves can NOT be in Unicode, though individual text strings in the file can.  Is that what you mean?


(?) - I think, either way its completely cryptic - can anyone tell me how I
create a PDF which contains source code like the example above? Or maybe how

Here's the deal: We have a customer who sends pdf files 8.5 x 11 for direct digital output. For this to be cost-effective for us, we need to gang the files 2-up 11x17. Yes, we can handle the imposition demands manually - however - we get such a volume of these files that it would be of IMMENSE assistance if we had some way of scripting this to happen "on the fly", using some kind of script or application.

In my ongoing task I have to balance screen readability with paper printability. The font and sizes I've settled on do that well enough viewed in Acrobat 4 but the same document in Reader 5, the expected distribution app. has unusably fuzzy text. Is this the result of some compromise in favour of cooltype? Or am I missing something? Do I need to use a hinted font? If anyone has time to check it out, I can email screen shots that show the difference very clearly.

Fred, I don't know what you mean about using (PUT POST DELETE PROPFIND PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK) functions. I've never had to use command line for IIS/WebDAV administration. WebDAV is configured by adding a user to a specific user group in Windows 2000. That user then gets the permissions of the group. In this case I gave the user "Pattie" author permissions, which should allow read/write to the server. And it does allow this in Windows Explorer, FrontPage, InterDev, etc. Below are the log files from Pattie's failed session. It appears to be attempting to create the FDF file, but a 401 error is returned (however this is not displayed in Acrobat). This was on IIS5 with FPSE 2000. I've recently upgraded the server extensions to FPSE 2002 with SPTS. And now Acrobat says something to the effect of "There is a problem with your comments server" ... not very helpful. Well, I guess I'll have to try some other things. -Adamz 2001-05-08 02:04:09 64.252.100.48 - 192.168.1.2 80 GET /acrobat/formspread.pdf - 206 Mozilla/4.76+(Macintosh;+U;+PPC) - 2001-05-08 02:04:09 64.252.100.48 - 192.168.1.2 80 PROPFIND /acrobat/xOqZnpMIpTljebaL418FdB/ - 207 Mozilla/3.0+(compatible;+Annots+1.0) - 2001-05-08 02:04:15 64.252.100.48 - 192.168.1.2 80 PROPFIND /acrobat/xOqZnpMIpTljebaL418FdB/ - 207 Mozilla/3.0+(compatible;+Annots+1.0) - 2001-05-08 02:04:22 64.252.100.48 - 192.168.1.2 80 PROPFIND /acrobat/xOqZnpMIpTljebaL418FdB/ - 207 Mozilla/3.0+(compatible;+Annots+1.0) - 2001-05-08 02:04:32 64.252.100.48 - 192.168.1.2 80 PROPFIND /acrobat/xOqZnpMIpTljebaL418FdB/ - 207 Mozilla/3.0+(compatible;+Annots+1.0) - 2001-05-08 02:05:25 64.252.100.48 - 192.168.1.2 80 GET /acrobat/formspread.pdf - 200 Mozilla/4.76+(Macintosh;+U;+PPC) - 2001-05-08 02:09:39 64.252.100.48 - 192.168.1.2 80 PROPFIND /acrobat/xOqZnpMIpTljebaL418FdB/ - 207 Mozilla/3.0+(compatible;+Annots+1.0) - 2001-05-08 02:09:39 64.252.100.48 - 192.168.1.2 80 PROPFIND /acrobat/xOqZnpMIpTljebaL418FdB/ - 207 Mozilla/3.0+(compatible;+Annots+1.0) - 2001-05-08 02:25:47 64.252.100.48 - 192.168.1.2 80 PUT /acrobat/xOqZnpMIpTljebaL418FdB/Pattie_0020Belle_0020Hastings.fdf - 401 Mozilla/3.0+(compatible;+Annots+1.0) - 2001-05-08 02:26:47 64.252.100.48 - 192.168.1.2 80 PUT /acrobat/xOqZnpMIpTljebaL418FdB/Pattie_0020Belle_0020Hastings.fdf - 401 Mozilla/3.0+(compatible;+Annots+1.0) - __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

You can't control this. They are both right, and Distiller is not designed to make PDF files just so you can read them easily, and editing at this level is rarely a good idea. That's why PDF forms were devised. If on the other hand you are just seeing the effect of a page stream filter, choosing ASCII format and no optimization may further your project just a little. Do remember that if you update a PDF you must either preserve the number of characters *exactly* or fix the xref table. It is wrong to serve a damaged PDF in the expectation Acrobat will fix it for you.

After some editing (e.g., insertion of EPS figures) the PS is distilled back to PDF. The original PDF includes a separation that was turned off in some print runs and left on in others. That separation is in the PS files and is easily identified by name after the Separation operator. I'm trying and failing to turn off the separation by changing its name from, say, (annotation) to (None). It works with my Sun workstation's PS interpreter but not with Distiller 4.05 or an HP PS printer. Since this name-change operation has worked with other sets of files, I figure the problem has something to do with this particular set. I've tried comparing PS where it works with PS where it doesn't, but haven't found anything that'd account for the difference. Any ideas? Thanks!

So now onto the problem: I have a pdf from which I need to extract data. The data are in tabular form but somewhat irregular, so that it is never safe to assume that a particular field will be on a particular line. This also means that the data for each report may span one, two or three pages, and the number of reports per pdf file may also vary. Here are some of the things I've tried so far: 1) Cut n paste - The pdfs allow me to copy text, so I've tried Select All, Copy, and then Paste into a text file. The resultant text is collapsed, so that it does not retain its relative position on the page. Therefore it would be almost impossible to parse the resultant text file with a script. 2) Magellan - I downloaded a copy of BCL computers' Magellan, which seemed promising. It outputs the pdf as HTML, which looks as though it might be useful. However when you look closely at the HTML, there is nothing in there which is consistent enought to parse with a script. I also tried saving the text from the browser (PDF->HTML->Text) which gives me formatted text (ie with spaces separating the columns) but I am still unable to parse the data because of its irregularity. 3) ACE. This seemed to have potential - it allows you to define zones on each page, but will only do one page at a time, so this is not really a possibility. 4) I found a product called Redwing and read all the product descriptions from its website, -- it seems to pull data directly from pdf into a database - but was still unable to work out if it would help me with my problem. They don't provide a demo, so I wrote an email to the sales department. They still haven't replied, and as I am in Hong Kong it is a little difficult to contact them by phone. Thats about as far as I've got with it. It seems as though what I need is an intelligent piece of software which will be able to extract data field by field, partly based on the position on the page, and partly on formatting cues. It needs to be able to actively recognise what information is what based on its appearance in the pdf rather than its postion on the page. This will allow it to cope with the variation in report length. Sounds like a tall order. Anyone have any suggestions? Any similar experiences? Thanks Jim Morgan CTO, NAV Limited.

Appligent () sells a tool called PDFText, which extracts the text from a PDF document while maintaining the visual "look and feel" of the page. If you want to send me a test file, I'd be glad to try it out with PDFText and send you the result to see if it will meet your needs.

A proxy server has to relay requests, and to do that it has to recognise them. In theory this is simple, but most proxy servers include some degree of analysis of the request, in particular so that they can cache the response. (Actually both requests and responses are likely to be analysed and modified, but to simplify I'll pretend it's only requests). That means that requests are typically broken down and reconstructed. Three things might happen: 1. The proxy might recognise a byte serving request (which is a standard part of HTTP/1.1, not an Adobe invention), and pass through each piece, possibly even caching the pieces. 2. The proxy might drop that part of the request which switches on byte serving, meaning that the entire file gets fetched. 3. The proxy might pass on the byte serving request but try to handle each partial response as if it is the whole file, caching them. This means PDF serving is broken, and is mercifully rare these days.

Things have been really hectic here at our office since Seybold Boston 2001, and I'm just starting to catch up on reading posts from the various discussion lists to which I'm subscribed. My company specializes in creating solutions for creating customized documents on the fly. In most cases, we create solutions that are based on commecially available, "off-the-shelf" software. In previous posts, people have recommended the 1) Adobe FDF toolkit, 2) software from www.activepdf.com, and software from www.appligent.com. These systems can definitely help you to do what you need to do. However, I just want to mention that there are other software solutions that are easier to use (i.e., you don't have to be a serious programmer to put a system together). If you are interested in finding out about some of these solutions, contact me off-list. (See contact info below.) Cynthia L.

However, this may not be the most useful tool for extracting data from your PDF. Have you tried BCL Computers' Jade plug-in? Jade allows you to drag-and-drop tables from PDF to Excel, and also allows you to create tab-delimited text output. You can download a free demo of Jade from our website at http://www.bcl-computers.com. Actually, if you can send me a sample PDF, I might be able to make a better recommendation on which tool to use.

There are a whole bunch of fonts which have incorrect embedding information (neither "yes" nor "no") and 4.05 allows these broken fonts to be embedded. > How do I > find out which > fonts (Mac) cannot be embedded? Strictly speaking, by reading the font license. The embedding flags in the font are a reminder, but not the same thing as the license itself. > Are "open fonts" the way to go to avoid > cross-platform > font problems? OpenType is a cross-platform type technology. Font creators still can technically enforce their legal rights (i.e. they can stop embedding). > Will Acrobat 5.0 have the same font embedding issues? It won't help you breach your font licenses...

Will Acrobat 5.0 have the same font embedding issues? -- glewis@cteresource.org Glenda Lewis Technology Support Technician CTE Resource Center E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 14-May-2001 17:43:02-GMT,5233;000000000001 Return-Path: Received: from etrn.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [205.173.176.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA20336 for ; Mon, 14 May 2001 11:43:01 -0600 (MDT) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id f4EHePY10470; Mon, 14 May 2001 12:40:25 -0500 Received: by egprime.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.13); Mon, 14 May 2001 12:35:54 -0500 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) id f4EHZqM10145; Mon, 14 May 2001 12:35:52 -0500 Received: from smtp-relay-2.Adobe.COM (smtp-relay-2.adobe.com [192.150.11.2]) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id f4EHZpC10141 for ; Mon, 14 May 2001 12:35:51 -0500 Received: from inner-relay-2.Adobe.COM (inner-relay-2.corp.adobe.com [153.32.1.52]) by smtp-relay-2.Adobe.COM (8.8.6) with ESMTP id KAA14996 for ; Mon, 14 May 2001 10:40:50 -0700 (PDT) Received: from mailsj-v1.corp.adobe.com by inner-relay-2.Adobe.COM (8.8.5) with ESMTP id KAA22518; Mon, 14 May 2001 10:35:34 -0700 (PDT) Received: from isaacs-base.adobe.com ([153.32.39.110]) by mailsj-v1.corp.adobe.com (Netscape Messaging Server 4.15) with ESMTP id GDC67L00.EO9; Mon, 14 May 2001 10:35:45 -0700 X-Organization: Adobe Systems Incorporated X-URL: X-Location: Office (ISAACS-BASE) Message-Id: <5.1.0.14.2.20010514102218.03c6f1b0@mailsj.corp.adobe.com> X-Sender: isaacs@mailsj.corp.adobe.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.1 Date: Mon, 14 May 2001 10:35:43 -0700 To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com From: "Dov Isaacs" Subject: Re: [PDF] Mac/PDF font embedding issues Cc: Glenda Lewis In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-pdf@lists.pdfzone.com Reply-To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com X-LISTINFO: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/lists.html X-ARCHIVE: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/listarchives.html X-CONTACT: mailto:webmaster@pdfzone.com The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ Expanding a bit on Aandi Inston's excellent earlier response to your questions, the issue really isn't Acrobat, but rather the font vendors. In terms of Type 1 fonts, there is nothing that the Distiller can or will do to enforce a font license that prohibits font embedding in a PDF file. On the other hand, for TrueType and OpenType fonts, the flag in the font must indicate that the font vendor allows at least "preview and print" embedding for the Distiller to embed that font into the PDF file. Flag settings for "editable embedding" or "installable embedding" also permit the Distiller to embed a particular font. A setting of "no embedding" is the only one the prevents embedding of a particular font. Most reliable type foundries and font vendors do permit embedding of their fonts in PDF files. It has consistently been the position of Adobe Systems Incorporated that a font license that does not allow at least "preview and print" embedding rights for PDF is effectively a useless license. All the OpenType fonts issued by Adobe (and the limited number of TrueType "web fonts" previously issued by Adobe) permit at least "preview and print embedding." On the other hand, there are type founders and font vendors who take the more extreme position and do not allow such embedding (both in their written licenses for all fonts and via the flags they set for TrueType and OpenType fonts) for fear that users will extract font data out of PDF files that would have their fonts embedded and would result in piracy. The fact is that although some of the font information would indeed be extractable, a full TrueType or OpenType font, including all the font metrics of the original font, cannot be so-extracted. The bottom line is that users should vote with their dollars, pounds, euros, marks, francs, pesos, and shekels and just say "no" to fonts that don't permit at least "preview and print embedding." It is indeed your choice! - Dov At 5/14/2001 10:06 AM, Glenda Lewis wrote: >My company writes, edits, and publishes career and technical material.

And this is what I can't seem to do. When you print to PostScript and then distill to PDF, the driver and distiller both have a default paper size, usually letter size (this is logical since one is _printing_ the document). There are two places that need to be changed. (I am not sure that it is absolutely necessary to change both -- perhaps someone else on the list can help here.) This is the procedure for FrameMaker on the PC but should point you in the right direction. I'll check XPress on the Mac this evening, if I get a chance (1) In Print Setup, choose Acrobat Distiller as your Printer, click Properties, then Advanced (bottom right corner). Under Paper/Output > Paper Size, choose PostScript Custom Page Size and set the page size you want in the dialog box that will appear. Click OK as you back out of the nested dialog boxes. Print to file from Print Document. (2) In Distiller, choose Settings > Job Options to make a custom set of job options.

This usually requires us to develope a new stamp everyday (the stamp encorporates the current date). Not too much of a big deal, however I would like to automate the process. My question is, is there a macro language or custom (user written) script that we could use to automate the process? Anything built into Acrobat for this process? [ Here is the manual procedure I'm using: ] 1) The custom stamp is created with Windows Paint and saved as a *.bmp file to the desktop. 2) By opening the bitmap into Acrobat, it converts to PDF in the process. We then save the converted bitmap as a PDF file back to the desktop. 3) I then open my folder where the approval stamps are stored, insert the new PDF as the last page in the folder, create a page template for it, remove the previous day's stamp, and save the "approved stamps" folder back to the plug-in's directory. The new stamp is now ready to use.

To extract text as XML and/or structures from PDF files, please check out the Total Integration PDF Extractor Library at: . The library provides extraction of text on a per word basis and also extracts the position of each word. The library has an implemented interface library to support the Java Native Interface. The PDF Extractor Library is already in use in several enterprise, server-based products/services.

This usually results in page breaks in the wrong place on the resulting pdf files. I read on another mailing list that when you switch to the distiller printer to create the PDF (or switch to any other printer, for that matter) that one of Word's favorite things to do is to reformat the document.

There is nothing in Acrobat 4, but with Acrobat 5's improved JavaScript support and the new Batch features you can indeed do what you need. Another option is to use a 3rd party plugin such as StampPDF (http://www.appligent.com) that can be set up to "stamp date" and it will automatically use the correct date.

Wish there was a way to add a JavaScript date to a stamp, but it doesn't work - something about being on a lower layer. (Using version 4.05). Another question for you, is what you described (JavaScript, Batch Sequences, and Acrobat v5.0) possible in v4 or limited to v5? I've never worked with JavaScript outside of a VERY LIMITED attempt inside of the forms function. I don't really know JavaScript and nothing of Adobe's "Batch Sequences". There's nothing in the online guide covering this. Any advise as to where I can learn more about this - do I have to upgrade?

Thanks, Leonard. That pretty much answers my questions. I am still using 4.05, looks like time for an upgrade and some lessons in JavaScript. I did look at StampPDF before, but I wasn't aware it would accept a custom, specialized stamp. They talk about adding 'your text' and we have a specific format. Will take a second look at them and try the demo download.

I have a question about Acrobat 4.05/2 Win and even an intensive search in the archive could not figure out, if this topic has been on the list so far. 1. Create a landscape Excel 97 document and add some long text lines to the first rows. 2. Format them with any TT font, but not a base font. 3. Create a PDF either with PDFWriter or Distiller. 4. Print the PDF on a Postscript printer and you will see the text lines cut off. This even happends if you print this PDF through Distiller again! So it seems to be the same for PS printers while PCL for example works just fine. I found three possible solutions so far (so we can forget to discuss in this direction ;-)) ): 1. Print as image 2. Embedd font on creation 3. Embedd font afterwards using TouchUp Now: What bothers me is the fact, that all this happens on one machine and of course this has the font available. Document Info > Fonts shows, that Acrobat knows about this. But for printing, it seems to use a Masterfont which makes the text run longer. Even if you embed the fonts after creation with TouchUp, the outline changes completly that indicates, a Masterfont has been used for display and print so far. Maybe I understood this incorrectly, but all documents from Adobe said the same thing: If you do not have the font and it is not embedded, then Masterfonts are used. Otherwise you see the text using exactly the font the creator used. Does anybody have a hint how to prevent this and make Acrobat Reader use the installed font for PS printers, too? Thanks for listening, Clemens PS: This problem seems also a little bit specific to Excel and does not obviously happen the same way in Word. Special string creation reflecting the cell structure of Excel may cause this behavior. It seems, that the text boundaries in the Excel decendent file are interpreted much more strict than those of other programs.

One other question. Will 5.0 allow these "broken fonts" to be embedded like you suggest 4.5 will? I'm not trying to break any font licenses; I've just begun researching this whole issue of fonts/embedding/restrictions and never realized there was so much to it. Most of the fonts we have/use came in huge packages (35-40 fonts) that refer to "the exciting new TrueType technology". Does that tell you how old these are? Should we just replace all our fonts with newer packages? I need to recommend fixes to these font issues and I'm just not sure we need to replace all of our fonts. The high cost of doing this could be prohibitive and very confusing. Unfortunately, I am the one person here who understands even this much about fonts and the more I learn, the more questions I have and the more I realize I don't know.

much to it. Most of the fonts we have/use came in huge packages (35-40 font= s) that refer
to "the exciting new TrueType technology". Does that tell you how= old these are? Should we just replace all our fonts with newer packages? I = need to recommend fixes to these font issues and I'm just not sure we need t= o replace all of our fonts. The high cost of doing this could
be prohibitive and very confusing. Unfortunately, I am the one person here = who understands even this much about fonts and the more I learn, the more qu= estions I have and the more I realize I don't know. Thank you for any help.<= BR>

Right now, I created a text only page (2 in PDF) and it comes to about 300K in size. I want it as portable as possible w/o losing resolution for those reading it on Reader. I turned off the illustrator editing capabilities and its still large. Its only B/W text. Should I convert fonts to outlines, will that help? How about compression and quality settings? Any tutorials that explain the process?

Our experience at Adobe is that such layout changes are minimized if you (a) always use the same driver for printing (I have no idea what the HP "emulation of PostScript" printers use for a driver these days) and (b) set the driver instances to the exact same resolution settings whether that is 600dpi or 1200dpi, for example. Maybe "Office XP" will fix this?

If you need something substantially editable, resign yourself to a significant QA effort each time you print to to paper (or epaper, for that matter).

We send proofs of all the Quark ads out to our customers in PDF format made with a Distiller setting of Print Optimized. Once the ad has been OK'd by the customer, we import that final ad PDF into a Quark page with other ads and editorial. When we make the final PDF of the completed page, we use the Distiller settings the printer provides. My question is this: Does the ads final quality reflect the Print Optimized Distiller setting it was made and imported into Quark with, or does the Distiller setting for the final page PDF override everything? Your help, as always, is greatly appreciated.

Meaningless fsType flags for embedding permissions in fonts will be treated as if embedding is permitted. Surprisingly enough, the age of the TrueType font will not necessarily guide you as to whether the embedding flags are correct. The simplest thing for you to actually do is to run an experiment in which you create a document that uses a few characters out of each of the fonts in question and see if a PDF file can be made from the document and for which fonts warnings are issued in the Distiller log file. Make sure that you use job options (even if you need to create a temporary set) that requests subsetted font embedding for all fonts but also yields a warning message if the font cannot be embedded (as opposed to aborting the distillation process). After distillation, the log file will effectively tell you which fonts are problematic for embedding! - Dov At 5/16/2001 06:58 AM, Glenda Lewis wrote: >Thank you for your information.

Should we just replace all our fonts with newer packages? I need to recommend fixes to these font issues and I'm just not sure we need to replace all of our fonts. The high cost of doing this could >be prohibitive and very confusing. Unfortunately, I am the one person here who understands even this much about fonts and the more I learn, the more questions I have and the more I realize I don't know.

Depending on the skill level of your users, a simple ZIP file may be enough, or a self-extracting ZIP file as EXE. Or a full installer. There is no good cross-platform solution, as ZIP is not popularly used on other platforms.

You really need to take a good long look at Distiller and the many variations that you can create pdf with. Acrobat installs with the base 14 fonts, and therefore the document does not need to carry it's own font, thus stripping the weight of the file. I would suggest testing a few scenarios using Distiller. I remember a while back, I was asked to take a 29mb file down to less than 1mb. The clients email limit was a strict 1mb. One of the first things was to replace ALL font accurances with base 14 (I chose Helvetica for it's readability). This particular document incorporated many 72dpi screen shots, and I used 4bit Zip compression on those. I made some compromises with the client's original design, and as Aandi noted previous, I had to take out all the drop shadows and gradients/blends and simplify the design quite a bit. Between me and you, I personally think this helped the overall look of the project as it was quite overdone already. Some designers out there think that it is necessary to use ALL the fancy attributes that are offered in ai9 (and other apps), and that not only creates bigger file sizes, but also tends to piss off RIPs and professional prepress workflows too. Bottom line, experiment, experiment, and when your done, do a couple more experiments! Norman J.

You can't. This is apparently simple, but actually impossible. ExecuteMenuItem does just that, and JavaScript cannot interact with the user interface. In general, if you have a plug-in that needs interaction, it can only be automated by (a) some feature built in to the plug-in (b) an external solution based on emulating key strokes and mouse clicks; although nasty some people have success with this method. I don't have any software to recommend.

But what you can do is use the Batch functions that are built into v5. You would be amazed at how much stuff you can do now, that once required third party plugins in v4.05. Check out some of the batch samples on the v5 disc and you may find a cheap work around to your problems.

I have a document that I need to process a few times year, and I am wondering what tool/tools exist that can help me with this tedious task. There are 3 components to this process. 1) first section I am provided with a TOC + document both in PDF format. I need to create links between TOC and pages (approximately 500 pages with 18 pages of TOC, ~2000 links) 2) second section, the document is provided without a TOC. I need to create a TOC with links to the appropriate pages. (TOC can be determined by headings or style charistics) Approximately 50 pages. This is provided in native application that I convert to PDF. 3) I need to combine first section and second section. In the resultant book, I have approximately 2600 items to link. For each value in the last column of the table a link needs to be created that points to the corresponding page and position of the matching value in the first section of the book. Ideally I need a tool that would allow me to define some rules about how to find the elements to create a link from so this can be automated. I have the option of making a style change to those data values that I want to create the link reference to (so I could change the entire last column of data to a different font, point size, color etc), although I can not change the style of the front section of the document. Also it would be nice to be able to specify the appearance of the link. I have found pdf plugins that can automate items 1 and 2 above (1. Sonar Bookends Activate - although it only creates a link box around the page number not the entire TOC entry, 2. Infodata Compose) My questions are: a) Any other tools that might address these problems? b) Does anyone have any experience with InfoLink? It is pricy and I can't determine from the web site whether it will address any of my specific problems, and there doesn't appear to be a demo available. c) Can I find a tool to provide all 3 of my desired functions? d) assuming the answer to c is no, is there a tool that allows me to globally change the boxes for #1 above. I thought perhaps Ari's link tool would do this, but I have been unsuccessful in making this change the box size of the link (at least in the demo) e) is there an existing tool for item 3 above that I have missed? Preference would be for Acrobat 4 on a PC, but I can be flexible with version or platform to address this infrequent task. Thanks for your response!

Once the ad has been OK'd by the customer, we import that final ad PDF into a Quark page with other ads and editorial. When we make the final PDF of the completed page, we use the Distiller settings the printer provides.

Your help, as always, is greatly appreciated.

It now seems more likely that the installation of Reader 5 (on the 2 computers) did have a role in Distiller 4.05 no longer working on either. After Acrobat 4.05 reinstalls on both, both work. Just ran Reader 5 and then successfully distilled another PDF with Distiller 4.05. All seems OK.

Have you looked at Compose? I have a book with a TOC that isn't linked; Compose links the page entry in the TOC to the corresponding page in the PDF. If I remember right, it uses the page number printed on the page, not the PDF page number. 2. Compose does a nice job of looking for a particular style of heading and creating bookmarks from those styles. For example, all green headings in 12 point Helvetica will be first level bookmarks; red headings in 10 point Times will be second level bookmarks. Compose will create a TOC for you by using the bookmarks. Every bookmark will be a TOC entry. If your PDF already has bookmarks, then Compose will build a TOC from them. 3. InfoLinker will do what you need here. You write rules, telling InfoLinker to look for every 4-digit number that falls in the right-most quarter of the page (for example), and InfoLinker will link it to the appropriate heading found in the book. Writing the rules is tricky, but once you have it done, you use those rules again and again. InfoLinker is reliable, does what it says it can do. Tech support from Doc Maestro was excellent. The links won't be pretty, though--InfoLinker creates only visible links (though you get to choose the color of the link). 4. You didn't ask, but why not suggest that they use a page layout application that will do all of this stuff automatically? FrameMaker would be excellent.

I have a document that I need to process a few times year, and I am wondering what tool/tools exist that can help me with this tedious task. There are 3 components to this process. 1) first section I am provided with a TOC + document both in PDF format. I need to create links between TOC and pages (approximately 500 pages with 18 pages of TOC, ~2000 links) 2) second section, the document is provided without a TOC. I need to create a TOC with links to the appropriate pages. (TOC can be determined by headings or style charistics) Approximately 50 pages. This is provided in native application that I convert to PDF. 3) I need to combine first section and second section. In the resultant book, I have approximately 2600 items to link. For each value in the last column of the table a link needs to be created that points to the corresponding page and position of the matching value in the first section of the book. Ideally I need a tool that would allow me to define some rules about how to find the elements to create a link from so this can be automated. I have the option of making a style change to those data values that I want to create the link reference to (so I could change the entire last column of data to a different font, point size, color etc), although I can not change the style of the front section of the document. Also it would be nice to be able to specify the appearance of the link. I have found pdf plugins that can automate items 1 and 2 above (1. Sonar Bookends Activate - although it only creates a link box around the page number not the entire TOC entry, 2. Infodata Compose) My questions are: a) Any other tools that might address these problems? b) Does anyone have any experience with InfoLink? It is pricy and I can't determine from the web site whether it will address any of my specific problems, and there doesn't appear to be a demo available. c) Can I find a tool to provide all 3 of my desired functions? d) assuming the answer to c is no, is there a tool that allows me to globally change the boxes for #1 above. I thought perhaps Ari's link tool would do this, but I have been unsuccessful in making this change the box size of the link (at least in the demo) e) is there an existing tool for item 3 above that I have missed? Preference would be for Acrobat 4 on a PC, but I can be flexible with version or platform to address this infrequent task. Thanks for your response!

But for everyone's future reference: an error of limitcheck on findfont is usually caused by Distiller not being able to find any fonts at all, including Courier. This in turn usually happens because Distiller's font folders settings have been messed up somehow. The usual way to fix this is to go to Settings | Font Locations... and Remove ALL font folders. Then click OK, and Distiller will regenerate a list of default folders to search. Hope this helps someone in the future.

The same blend distilled with Acrobat 3.0 and Acrobat 4.05 with 4.0 compatibility will remain vector. The blends I have used were all saved as PostScript Level 2 files, so smooth shading (PS Level 3) should not be a factor here. This is a problem for me because the "bitmap" blends result in substantial banding when output to film and matchprint, whereas the "vector" blends output fine. Output from both Scitex and Harlequin (PS level 2) based systems have been tested. Does anyone know why Illustrator blends convert to bitmap images when distilled with Acrobat 4.05, using Acrobat 3.0 compatibility, as opposed to remaining as vector objects?

No. Just as with the reverse question (which is more frequently asked), this is the user's choice and you cannot override it as a designer. Good, I say, though some may disagree...

There was a known problem that even if you created a PDF file with Distiller 4 and created PDF 1.2 (i.e., Acrobat 3.x compatibility) but allowed color management features, then the resultant PDF files could contain a colorspace not part of the PDF 1.2 specification. If all colors were in standard RGB, CMYK, and K colorspaces as most typically are and the joboptions did not convert colors to certain managed colorspaces, then the problem did not occur. Assuming you need to open the PDF files with Acrobat < 4, you would need to recreate the PDF files with joboptions for PDF 1.2 AND make sure that the options do not create managed colorspaces. - Dov At 5/22/2001 07:53 AM, Dr. Jeffrey Race wrote: >A colleague has encountered the following problem when opening a PDF: > >>When opening pdf files I get the error message, for example, >> >>"Could not find the ColorSpace named 'Cs9'" >> >>And some of the graphics are simply filled in with black. >> >>Then: >> >>"This file contains invormation not understood by the viewer.

Adobe Acrobat's Online Comments feature allows multiple users to post comments on a single document. Users in an online commenting session can share their comments and view others' comments in real-time, or users can comment on a document at their own convenience and upload their comments at a later time with the offline option. Remote users can comment on any PDF file. Users do not alter the original document while commenting. Comments are saved in a repository outside of the document-maintaining the author's control in revising the original document. To provide greater flexibility, a repository may be a database, a network folder, or a folder on the Web. There are four repository types for Online Commenting: * Network Folder * Web Discussions * Database * WebDAV Ironically, we just had the RealTimeImage folks come out to our facility today to give us a complete run through of their product suite. They did a very nice job. Although they have a good product, it comes with a cost, and if you are looking for a easy and cheap solution to your problem, FDFCollaborate could be the answer. Norman J.

It sounds almost like what would happen if you had PostScript that did this: if PostScript LanguageLevel3 do smooth shade else do old-style gradient (loop with repeated fills) PostScript like this when distilled on Distiller 3 would get the level 2 behavior (producing vectors). When distilled on Distiller 4 it would try to do the smooth shade. But in 3.0 compatibility mode it would convert the smooth shade to an image. That would explain the problem but for one thing: you say you have the problem as far back as Illustrator 6. That was before Illustrator even supported smooth shades, so that explanation wouldn't work. Might explain some of the other cases, though. Macduff Hughes Adobe Systems, Inc.

We are a traditional prepress shop that runs all of the standard prepress software (all latest versions) on the Mac platform. We create PDF's via Distiller 4.05 and preflight them using Pitstop Server 1.61/Pitstop 4.0. We constantly run into issues that the PDF preflight reports tell us that some of the images are "Converted colour" or Indexed colour". When looking at the Photoshop images, they appear to be the standard CMYK with no transfer functions or halftone screens activated. All of the distiller settings are set to leave all colours unchanged. Any thoughts as to why this is happening? And what impact might it have later on in the printing process?

Indexed colour images may be made automatically when an image uses 256 or less colours. Instead of 3-4 bytes per pixel, they now use 1 byte, so this is a good thing. Indexed colour has an underlying colour space - RGB, CMYK, Separation, Calibrated RGB, ICCBased, more. If the image is indexed CMYK, there is nothing to worry about; this is usable in exactly the same way as regular CMYK. Indexed RGB - as usable (or unusable) as RGB. So - look at the underlying colour space.

I would like help in generating a unique number using the following javascript in a custom field on a PDF form:

var d = new Date()
var d1 = util.printd("mmddHHMMss", d)
console.println(d1)

I am unable to get it to print on the form. Can you tell me how this is done?

No, it does not. This is used by products included with Acrobat. To create your own programs you must get a license. You also need the header files, which are supplied when you get a license. Using Acrobat you can freely develop plug-ins that use the similar API. These can be deployed wherever a copy of Acrobat can be licensed (i.e. NOT on a server). > I have the > documentation of it but it is so generic that it will take > substantially > long time to find the proper one. That's the area where I > need assistance. No: first you MUST resolve the licensing issues. With sums from $25K to $1M at stake you can be sure that Adobe's lawyers will vigorously deal with anyone developing with these libraries without a license. If you believe you will be able to license, you can use the plug-in API to prototype your development. But until that seems a possibility, I don't think it would be beneficial to you if we were to encourage your development with any technical hints.

One thing to beware of with PageMaker is changing the "Compose to printer" setting. Make sure that this is set to a printer driver you have (and everyone else working with the document has); that there is no "?" shown; and that it is never changed. Some people change this to match whatever they are printing to, but that's not what's supposed to happen.

I think that perhaps you do not like the answer and hope for a different one. Apologies if I was not clear, I will try again. You can develop plug-ins using the Acrobat SDK and run them using Acrobat, provided a licensed copy of Acrobat can be installed (i.e. not to a server). To develop freestanding executables with the Acrobat SDK you need to license the Acrobat library. The file pdfl40.dll is indeed the PDF library and you may not develop for it without a license. Licensing is a legal process, more than it is a technical one. Buying Acrobat does NOT license the Acrobat library. Having a copy of pdfl40.dll makes no difference. Knowing the entry points makes no difference. The license will cost many, many thousands of dollars, and approval is not automatic. Is that clear now?

We use PDF forms for insurance carriers and capture lengthy answers to medical questions which need to print in full on the carriers' own applications which we populate using the ASP scripting language and M$ SQL Sever 7.0. We rely on the multi-linfe fields to print these lengthy answers in full for the carriers and our users. In Acrobat 4.0 multi-line form fields display and print in full the data being sent to it. Acrobat 5.0 seems to truncate lines if the font size needs to be smaller than 5. Acrobat 5.0 does make the form fields "scrollable", but this new feature is utterly useless for our printing purposes. I haven't found any setting in Acrobat 5.0 to change this nor any mention of the functionality difference in the Help Guide. I'm hoping this wasn't a new feature with 4.05 and we merely missed the boat on it. Is this a bug or a "feature"? Does anyone know of a way that I can get these multi-line fields to act as they did in 4.0? I've looked through Acrobat's help guide, PDF Zone,Planet PDF, and the news groups. I'm hoping that I'm just missing a setting somewhere - even though I've looked. As usual, your help and insight is appreciated.

I merely tested against the largest record in our database - which squeaked by at what looks like 4.3 or so.

Thanks for that information Teryk! I didn't know Acrobat had changed the lowest font size and the way that it handles fonts. I haven't tested it yet, but would Reader 5.0 truncate text that require fonts lower than 5 points even though the file was created in Acrobat 4? I'll be testing for this in the coming weeks and and will report back to the list.

The font size is determined when generating the appearance. It doesn't actually truncate the text, only clips it so that it does not flow outside of the appearance for the annotation. Every time you change the value of a field, the appearance gets regenerated. If you create a form in Acrobat 4 and modify the field value in Acrobat 5, it will set the font size to 5 or greater. Although many things changed with respect to font handling in Acrobat 5, this particular behavior is a bug that will be fixed. 4.0 pts will be the minimum font size when "auto" is chosen. -Teryk E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 30-May-2001 0:49:36-GMT,3048;000000000001 Return-Path: Received: from etrn.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [205.173.176.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id SAA25772 for ; Tue, 29 May 2001 18:49:35 -0600 (MDT) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id f4U0lsO04847; Tue, 29 May 2001 19:47:54 -0500 Received: by egprime.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.13); Tue, 29 May 2001 19:41:53 -0500 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) id f4U0fqt04473; Tue, 29 May 2001 19:41:52 -0500 Received: from ns2.bisnet.com (NS2.BISnet.com [205.158.27.129]) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id f4U0foG04469 for ; Tue, 29 May 2001 19:41:51 -0500 Received: from bisnet.com (w017.z064002040.smf-ca.dsl.cnc.net [64.2.40.17]) by ns2.bisnet.com (8.11.1/8.9.3) with ESMTP id f4U0fof32667 for ; Tue, 29 May 2001 17:41:50 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from asapere@bisnet.com) Message-ID: <3B14420C.4876CEC7@bisnet.com> Date: Tue, 29 May 2001 17:42:52 -0700 From: Angela Sapere X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.76 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com Subject: Re: [PDF] Multi-line feature change in 5.0?

You might consider a redesign so that you can use a field that's physically larger, or otherwise add more space for the text.

As Aandi Inston pointed out to you a different list, this will require you to license a PDF library of some sort. It could be Adobe's, Appligent's (http://www.appligent.com) or some other one that supports all the features that you require - BUT you WILL need to license SOMETHING.

The file was originally created in PC PageMaker. One of the grayscale images prints as with a gray fuzzy image on a gray box. The image looks and prints fine from P65. The image looks fine in Acrobat. The image is a TIF. The only think different between this grayscale image and the others is that this one came from Europe. Thinking there might be something funky about the TIF file, I pulled it into Photoshop. It opened with no messages. I then did a Save As, re-linked it in P65, same results in the PDF print. To create the PDF, I print to PostScript, and I've tried using the Distiller driver, Lino 330 and 630 drivers and a Lexmark Driver. All had the same problem. I'm printing the PDF at PostScript level 1; when I go to level 2, it "flushes the buffer" on my printer. We have 32megs of RAM in our printer; memory shouldn't be the problem. The bad image is also experienced by my customer (don't know what level they're printing at). Any ideas?

I just wanted to post the following solution to my problem in case others might be interested.

At 04:23 PM 5/24/01 -0400, you wrote:
I see now what you are trying to do.  Putting the script in the format sectiondoes not really work(1) to make something appear, you must have

var d = new Date() var
d1 = util.printd("mmddHHMMss", d)         
event.value = d1;

format script is meant to take a field value and format it. Using this script,
the number you want appears in the field, but the field still has no value!

(2) The solution to the problem is to put the script in the page open section
    (Document > Set Page Action). Then the code
var d = new Date();
var d1 = util.printd("mmddHHMMss", d);
this.getField("RIS Work Request No").value=d1;

will work.  Every time the file is opened, a new "random" RIS No appears and
the field will have a value as well.

(I had had this feature at one point and lost it. ) Several persons wrote to say that it was only available in v5.0; however I found out how this works in 4.05 and wish to share it with you. Others wrote to say they also had this and lost it. In order to get this feature working again I had to reinstall Acrobat. Apparently an install of Lotus 123 or Corel WordPerfect added Acrobat Reader and that gummed up the works (guessing, but that's my best guess.) Then go to the folder, select the prints, right click and select "print" and your off and running.

We often receive Acrobat PDF pages which are too large to fully print (data set in print margins area, too close to the side, top or bottom. usually the bottom.) Some PDF's received will allow them selves to be resized by using the crop tool (control+T) and assigning a negative number (I.E. -0.1") to the margin. This will resize the page margin without losing and of the data lying in the margin area. Other times it will not work, displaying a "must be between 0 and xx" value. (Of course a normal crop will simply crop off the margin involved (top, bottom, right or left side), data and all. This is fine for eliminating parts of a page one wishes to cut off, but not for "adding" white space around data necessary to the content.) Anyone have any idea as to why some pages can be negatively cropped and other not? (Both types of pages are coming from the same source, from the same server and same version of AutoCAD, so that shouldn't be the variable.)

Pages have two "boxes": the media box, which is a kind of maximum, and the crop box, which is what you actually see on screen. For no very obvious reason, many developers have chosen to ignore the crop box (on the presumption that if you crop it you can't have meant it?) but that's not the problem here. The problem for you is that the crop box must be smaller than the media box. So you can't actually enlarge a page; only remove some of the cropping that was already there. There are products that can enlarge the media box; one is the Trim & Shift function in Quite Imposing (for which I must declare an interest).

DocBox.api is a plugin used as part of digital signatures in Acrobat 5.0. As a security measure it purposely crashes Acrobat if it determines that the process is being debugged. If you don't use digital signatures you can just remove the plug-in. Since this is something mostly run into by developers you will find (some) information on it in the Developer Support Knowledge Base. http://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/search.htm -Teryk At 03:21 PM 5/31/01 -0400, you wrote: >The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com >__________________________________________________________________ > > >I went to update some of my older computers from Acrobat Reader 4 to 5.01 >and two of them are giving me GPF saying that Acrord32 has caused a fault in >docbox.api.
