Exactly and technically, it sets the default transformation matrix in Distiller; exactly this and nothing more. In most cases it has no effect, but PostScript files will sometimes use the matrix to control their output. A typical example: some high-end programs like FreeHand will use the resolution when they write a colour blend. If the resolution is low, they make a blend with a very few colours. If the resolution is high, they make a blend with many more colours. So the quality and complexity both increase. This option has no effect on: image quality; image resolution; fonts.

No, there is no way at all to control printer properties from a document. A plug-in could do it - written for Acrobat, not for the browser, and installed into the user's copy of Acrobat - but it is not a simple undertaking.

I'm aware that Adobe has a conversion facility on their web site. However, we have over 10,000 Acrobat pages on one of our intranet sites, and I'm not sure how practical conversion of such large files would be. Almost all of the PDF files were generated in a two step process; 1) running a report writer (SQR) that generates a postscript file output from an Oracle database input, and 2) conversion of the postscript files using Acrobat Distiller. It might be more practical to regenerate the PDF files when a new version of Acrobat becomes available.

Mac G4, OS 9. In the Chooser I pick AdobePS driver. I do not have a specific printer to select. In PhotoShop 5, I open a recently-scanned TIFF file. It was scanned at 1200 dpi, as line art.

Our RIP is Harlequin v5.1 and is having problems with this font encoding. We are currently investigating some other workflow systems (Prinergy), but need a workaround or a solution until we can get that in place. A recent job was from PC Quark, provided to us as PDF. The font in questions was a dingbat font, but I have also seen this with standard fonts such as symbol, Palatino etc. Is there an action item for Pitstop that may resolve this, or is it driver related that may be introducing it? Any helps is mucho appreciated. TIA, Sue ************************************** Sue Campbell Training & Production Coordinator Thomson- Shore, Inc.

Have you taken this up with the RIP maker? I ask this perhaps obvious question because I have seen a tendency for people with RIP problems to look at changing everything but the RIP software. CID fonts are a valid part of PDF, and have no simple equivalent. Printing to level 1 and redistilling must eliminate them but runs the risk of losing meaning and content.

I believe they have a upgraded version of their PostScript emulator that readily handles this. There is nothing wrong with the PostScript itself. It is to specification and there is no driver option for changing it. - Dov At 2/2/2001 06:17 AM, Sue Campbell wrote: >Hi Listers, > >We have been having some issues with PDF files coming in that contain CID >Identity-H fonts.

This is how I handled it. There is not an action list item that I am aware of. I was able to get my files to rip by using the global change function in Pitstop. Select the font tab, and then use the "from" picker to select the offending font in your document, and then use the "to" picker to substitute with a good font which you have loaded in suitcase. After that you'll need to check your text flow very carefully. FYI, the font we encountered as identity H was Helvetica bold I think, and there were instances of non-identitiy H Helvetica bold fonts as well. Pitstop replaced all Helvetica bold fonts in the file with my type-1 font.

I can appreciate your advice to check with Harlequin, but unfortunately we are tied to using the RIP we have due to the workflow we have in place. We are using Creo Platemaster 2.0, and they have no intention to release any future upgrades to this system. They got us up to barely level 3 with the v5.1 upgrade, this is an improvement from v 4.2 but as far as we can go. We are researching going outside of CreoScitex to integrate a newer version, but voids our service contract and also would require using a 1-bit tiff workflow to drive our devices. I think this is their marketing strategy to get Platemaster users to migrate to Prinergy. Hoping we could find a solution until we get a new system in place. Could be several months.

Method 1: your users load the form by clicking on a link within their web browser. Acrobat starts up and the form gets displayed in the browser window. The user fills out the form. The form contains a submit button using the Submit action or the submitForm() method. The data is submitted to a script (CGI, ASP, or similar) on a web server which then does the rest. Note that this approach requires the user to view the form under a web browser. Method 2: Your users open the form either in Acrobat (Reader) or in the web browser. As in method 1, there is a submit button, but this time, it uses the getURL() method, and submits the data to the script which then does the rest. When the user is running Reader on its own, it will now open the web browser which then calls the script. As this method uses the GET method, you would have to use some little JavaScripting to put together the complete URL, including all parameters. Note that this approach works in both environments, under a web browser or on its own. If your user happen to have a full Acrobat Viewer component (Business Tools or full version), it would be WebCapture handling the call URL, and you would get the answering page added to your document. Note too: for methods 1 and 2, your user must have the possibility to immediately build up an internet connection Method 3: Similar to method 3, but working off-line as well. Instead of the http: protocol in the getURL() method, you would use the mailto: protocol and pass your parameters accordingly. This then opens the web browser, which itself opens the mail client. Depending on the browser and the mail client, more or less parameters get passed properly. In some cases, you will need some extra tricks to get the data over to the mail client. Supposed that the information is in the mail client, your user can then send the mail. Note that this method works only when Reader runs on its own. But, this method works even if the user can not immediately build up an internet connection, such as in a mobile environment. I have successfully implemented methods 2 and 3 in several projects. Hope, this can help.

As far as I can see, there is no support for attachments. However, the way I understand your application, sending the base PDF as an attachment is _not needed_, because you specify the base-PDF in the FDF (if you build up FDF data in your message). This is called the /F parameter. When you then open the FDF, it will automatically call the specified base-PDF. If your idea is to send around completed PDFs, you would need the file saving feature anyway (and that's not possible with Reader, but requires at least the Business Tools) ... and then you don't have to worry because this tool will support the mailDoc() method. Hope, this can help.

I think this has probably covered a few times in the archives, but for you
and others who have missed it, we create an "autorun.inf" file using a basic
text editor and place it at the top level of the CD-ROM. I just grabbed one
of our recent versions and the command we used was:

[autorun]
open=..\Acro405p\Reader\AcroRd32.exe ..\intro.pdf

I've seen other ways of doing the same thing . . . this one works fine for us.

On a Mac, I belive that the procedure is a bit different. We've set one up

I have to distill them with different settings. Printing one set of PS files with embedded images and font calls allows me to generate high-res files for high-res output (for example, 300dpi CMYK for 150 lpi film from a 2500dpi filmsetter) and then distill the same PS file for 72dpi RGB images on the web. Sometimes, the printer who wanted a PDF file for the Docutech will run into a snag and want the PS, which is available. Sometimes, I have gone directly from PageMaker to PDF and forgot that Distiller was still set for 72dpi when I needed 300, or vice versa. I find it easier in the long run to do make the PDF in two steps. ------------------- Michael Brady jbrady@email.unc.edu http://www.unc.edu/~jbrady/index.html Receive the latest PDF News in your Inbox. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5-Feb-2001 22:17:23-GMT,3123;000000000000 Return-Path: Received: from everglades.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [208.155.48.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id PAA15445 for ; Mon, 5 Feb 2001 15:17:22 -0700 (MST) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA02035; Mon, 5 Feb 2001 16:17:11 -0600 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Mon, 5 Feb 2001 16:08:56 -0600 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id QAA01739; Mon, 5 Feb 2001 16:08:55 -0600 Received: from proxy.surf.net.au (ip-69-7.surf.net.au [203.87.69.7]) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id QAA01734 for ; Mon, 5 Feb 2001 16:08:51 -0600 Received: from [203.16.165.79] (ppp79.surf.net.au [203.16.165.79]) by proxy.surf.net.au (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA16077; Tue, 6 Feb 2001 09:11:48 +1100 Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Sender: gheard@mail.surf.net.au Message-Id: In-Reply-To: <5.0.2.1.2.20010205132832.01db1d50@mailsj.corp.adobe.com> References: <3A7F1373.E1D3CCC5@jaramstudios.com> <25.10ec6415.27b060fd@aol.com> <3A7F1373.E1D3CCC5@jaramstudios.com> <5.0.2.1.2.20010205132832.01db1d50@mailsj.corp.adobe.com> Date: Tue, 6 Feb 2001 09:08:31 +1100 To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com From: Geoffrey Heard Subject: Re: [PDF] Re: Create Adobe PDF Cc: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com, jhf Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" 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 __________________________________________________________________ At 1:29 PM -0800 5/2/01, Dov Isaacs wrote: >The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com >__________________________________________________________________ > >Au contraire, this method does allow you to specify which job options >to use on a job-by-job basis. Dov I don't actually look at the postscript, but I have found with a number of programs, including PageMaker 6.52, that the path to happiness is to NOT use Create PDF but rather to print to file, then distill. Others on the PageMakr list have reported problems with Create PDF too. Nothing specific I can put my finger on, but things just not running right. In relation to PagedMaker specifically, if you want to use PDF files within PageMaker, you need to use Acrobat 3. Adobe stopped the import filter development at that level. I run both 3 and 4 on my machine. Create goes for v.4, so that is another reason for staying in the > PS file > Distill mode -- it gives me a choice of distiller.

I hope someone here can steer me in the right direction. I'm running Win2k Professional, Office 2k and PageMaker 6.52 >From Word, I usually just use the PDFWriter and that works fine for uncomplicated documents. But PageMaker produces much more varied results, eg: I have a fairly complex and large document containing numerous graphics (mainly .wmf, but some .bmp's), and a handful of fonts. The main font family used is ZapfHumanist (a Bitstream version of Optima). If I run the document through PDFWriter, the fonts all appear fine, but four of the graphics are terrible, with black sections surrounding the picture, and sometimes a rough black grid criss-crossing the image. If I distil the document, using the standard settings I get: Most graphics looking good, EXCEPT for three pages (out of 59) where a small graphic I use in the footer, gets moved to the centre of the page, comes b/w and semi transparent! Also, some pages do not render the font ZapfHumanist at all. The log says something like this: "TT11BFO00 not found, using Courier." (except that the font name/number changes everytime I distil). Some pages, the font is there, other pages not.. I've uninstalled/reinstalled a couple of times, but I'm running out of ideas! Any help please?

(a lot who don't have a clue in adding extensions to their filenames nor distilling correct PDF's mind you!) Is Pitstop just the tool for this or is there any other suggested helper programs??? Also, what's in store for Acrobat 5 as I noticed that Ai9 saves to this format. I've noticed I have only 2 settings in Ai, Custom and screen optimized (i think...from memory) Is there any "custom" profiles that I can create like in Distiller???

I don't know what edits you can make in Illustrator. "Acro's basic touchup tools" don't have the capability of changing spot color, resizing and repositioning frames and graphics, and doing certain text editing that you can do with PitStop.

That's the tool you get by holding down the button for the type editing tool (T). The submenu that appears has a tool with a black arrow icon. Select it. Then hold down option and double click on the image. It will open up in its creator app. Convert the photoshop temp file that opens up to CMYK, close, save it. Then save the PDF. If you inspect it with pitstop now, it should verify that the image is now CMYK. As for profiles, our experience with photoshop 5 was that after the conversion, the CMYK file would have an ICC profile embedded in it, even though we don't use profiles. That is no longer the case with photoshop 6, I'm glad to say. Converting from RGB to CMYK or grayscale is a breeze now. PS: You can do as much messing aroung with the temp file as you want, but I understand only the first save has any effect on the PDF. After that, any changes you made to the photoshop file are irrelevant. The solution is to save and close the PDF, reopen it and make new changes. hope this helps.

Something I whole heartedly agree with. Excellent point, well put and about time. I am a Mac fanatic who uses OS9, Win95/98/NT and 2000 Pro. Sometimes you have to concede that Macs can't do everything and neither can Windows. But they can do most things the other can. It all depends on how much planning you do with your files.

I know that I'm having some minor variations in rule widths (created in PC Pagemaker 6.5) when using the simpler Print PDF option, and I see that rules look correct after distillation. I think I would go ahead and use the faster Print PDF option and if anything looks a bit off, try distilling the file to see if that resolves the problem. *********************************** Michelle Leitzsey Eason Marketing Manager and Webmaster Distance Education and Instructional Support University of South Carolina (www.sc.edu/deis) 803-777-3997 >>> jhf@jaramstudios.com 2-5-01 3:56:19 PM >>> The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ I am using a Mac G4, Quark 4.1, and Acrobat 4.0.5.

Windows 2000 is NOT Type 1 and PostScript brain-dead as Windows NT 4 was. BIG CAVEAT. Do not "upgrade" systems from Windows NT 4 to Windows 2000 under any circumstance. Too many "doggy droppings" remain from NT 4 that are not cleaned up in the "upgrade." Do a clean install and reinstall all applications. That is painful, but is the only real way to assure that you don't get into some real difficulties. - Dov At 2/7/2001 06:02 AM, Decker Gary E wrote: >I am part of an implementation team for my company's move from Windows NT >4.0 to Windows 2000, and from Microsoft Office 95 to Office 2000.

You must be willing to share, describe and deconstruct your processes and techniques (via interviews with the authors). If your project(s) is chosen you must be able to provide permission for its publication in the book. Please include your name, address, telephone, e-mail, best times/ways to contact you and a brief description of your project.

My problem: I have a 140+ page Word 97 document that has an automatically generated index created the through the standard Word "Insert Index" codes. Can Acrobat use this automatically generated index to create links back to the originating codes, or do I have to hand create the links. Its about a 10 page index, and I just don't want to take the time. I have used PDFMaker (not PDFwriter) to make my files so far. I just couldn't find a way to set it to link the index, though I did check the Index levels I am using in the setup dialog. Much thanks in advance.

The conversion process then begins automatically. It'll be converted as a temp file, so you'll just need to save. Not sure if this is the best way, but this is how we convert some of our Excel files without having to convert individual sheets within Excel. Hope this helps.

The conversion process then begins automatically. It'll be converted as a temp file, so you'll just need to save. Not sure if this is the best way, but this is how we convert some of our Excel files without having to convert individual sheets within Excel. Hope this helps.

I think this may not be happening where you suspect. Provided you are using Distiller 4.x, the spot colour is almost certainly getting INTO the PDF.

You make a simple JavaScript which you can attach to the Calculate event where you multiply the original currency amount with the conversion factor. However, the conversion factor is the problem. Unless you are within Euroland (where the local currencies are invariably attached to the Euro), you will have exchange rate fluctuations, which forbid you to use a fixed value. So, in order to be precise, particularly when it comes to a rather volatile currency as the USD, you would have to provide the current exchange rate. Providing the exchange rate manually is not that difficult, just have a field where the user can enter it. Providing it automatically, on the other hand, would be quite a project, which includes a specific request to an exchange rate listing site, plus some considerable data massage to finally get the number you need. I your numbers are really static, there is some chance that you could use a production plug-in which parses your document, and tries to exchange the numbers. For such a plug-in, you might contact Marc Véron (mailto:veron@veron.ch) who is one of the leading production plug-in developers. It helps if your prices have unique character attributes.

From there we simply choose the "Export to PDF" command within Quark, it creates the postcript file and then Distiller takes over, using a set of preferences provided to us from the printing plant. What happens then is that any spot color which was designated within Quark, or imported art from Photoshop, is converted to CMYK and does not maintain its spot color designation. We used to simply pick "Cyan" as our spot color and would advise the printing facility of what actual PMS color to use. However, that's too easy of a solution for the ad agency who insists on using the designated spot color. (Do you sense my disdain for the ad agency??!!). Any ideas would be appreciated and thanks for your quick response.

How can you be sure of this? What tools are telling you that the PDF file does not contain spot colour? When I see reports of this problem, most often there is nothing wrong with the PDF file; the problem is in how the PDF file is used. Hence, I asked the question, how is the PDF file separated? Not how it is made, but how the final PDF file is turned into plates? That is usually the key to the problem. Some people do use methods that are (to me) rather strange, like using XPress to separate PDF files.

If youre getting the correct colour space in the Pitsop Inspector report, send the screen grab to your output bureau/printer so they can look at their workflow. If it doesnt you have to seriously consider re writing your PS files. You can go to the scenicsoft site and use their guide on creating DSC compliant PS files. good luck Jojo ShowAds New Zealand Computer-to-Plate Site > From: Dick Whipple > Reply-To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com > Date: Sun, 11 Feb 2001 10:53:47 -0600 > To: > Subject: Re: [PDF] Keeping Spot Color > > > The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com > __________________________________________________________________ > > on 2/10/01 3:53 AM, Aandi Inston at listreader2@quite.com wrote: > >> >> The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com >> __________________________________________________________________ >> >>> We have recently begun making pdf's of our newspaper pages >>> and transmitting them to a printing facility about 60 miles >>> away.

As stupid this sounds, this is the only way you can prevent downlaoding and local saving. The reason is that when you make it available for the user on-line, you do actually download it to the user when the user views it. So, it is already on the user's machine, and some exploring will allow the user to snitch a copy. You can add all kind of security features, of course, and you can also add some features which make the document useless, but that's about it, and it is your decision if the efforts are worthwile. Hope, this can help.

Why? because it doesn't blend nicely with a dynamic page. PDF for online viewing is still somewhat awkward in my opinion. So, while the option doesn't exist: 1) is there a good PDF->HTML converter, hot-folder based that I could use for this? 2) will the report's links be still active? (the ones pointing to the preflighted file) 3) other suggestions? By the way, taking aside the "actions" feature of PitStop server, are other preflighters like FlightCheck comparable to it when preflighting PDF? best regards, -- Roberto Michelena EOS S.A.

I have since downloaded the Acrobat 4 Upgrade 2 which results in version 4.05c - but that did not make any difference. I will try it on the client's WIN machine to see if it works there. -- C.

We know to create an encrypted PDF that is passed by the Callback functions such as PDCryptNewSecurityDataProc, PDCryptFillEncryptDictProc and etc.. But can we use API to manual run this encryption sequence? Is it possible? The reason why I need to manual run this encryption sequence is my API should save protected document in batch mode. In reference, I only found something like Save() or SaveAs() for non-protected document but there is no insight for own security handler's saving. I tried to manual run encryption sequence, but there is a "missing ring" in saving. Acrobat seems to save something before PDCryptFillEncryptDictProc() and after PDCryptUpdateSecurityDataProc() and PDCryptFreeSecurityDataProc(). There is a progress monitor flashing twice times. What is it?? Is it Leonard said "Acrobat requires/assumes that the data is decrypted in memory" ? Appreciate any advices!!

I believe the Adobe technology (written in Perle and available as an SDK, excuse the spelling) is basically a headless Reader that renders a PDF to a jpg bitmap to a frame buffer (instead of the monitor) at the server side, then places some HTML code around it and then delivers THAT with some Java interface stuff to the clients side browser. - like if somehow you did a screen capture and delivered THAT istead of sending the PDF... I have met several folks that have implimented this. [1] the viewer does not even need to install acrobat to view PDFs (or, actually, Jpegs of the PDF) [2] the client never gets the PDF (very secure) yes, you can zoom, even select text (or disable selecting text) [3] in cases where the PDF is 70mbs, the "RIP to file" happens on the server, quickly, and the file that is sent (and viewed) is consistantly small... *sigh* normally i am the petulant poster - i guess it was my turn to be nice. ---------------------------------------------------------------- > >> I know that we can prevent printing, amending etc of pdfs but does >> anyone know how I can prevent anyone from saving or downloading >> a pdf from online? ---------------------------------------------------------------- >An impossible, almost a meaningless, question.

Roberto - I strongly disagree in may publishing environments! PDF files don't relow, which makes them perfect for online review of documents that need to be approved for printing. PDF files can retain things like CMYK and spot colors, which makes them perfect for online downloading and exchange in high end prepress workflows. PDF files display identically regardless of the browser or platform. You want dynamic pages? don't use PDF! of course, if you had a chance to peek inside an Acrobat 1.4 file ... and no, i will not comment any further on that remark.

You can track this as in-depth as you want to, but what you need to do is look at controlling the file download process. As several other people have said, once you're looking at the PDF file in the Viewer (or the browser), the file is already downloaded and resident on the person's hard drive. You can put read passwords in the PDF file, but I wouldn't trust this level of encryption for high-security documents (it's only 40 bits). If this is a real issue, there are at least three different processes you can put in place. 1. HTML Log-In ------------------ Create an HTML log-in screen where the person has to enter a user ID and password. If they provide a valid log-in, they are then sent to the URL where the PDF resides. Many companies do a varient for marketing purposes - before you can download marketing information about a company, you must enter your name, email address, phone, etc. Then they send you to the download page. A simple HTML screen with a CGI behind it to test the validity of the ID and password is all you need. You can also capture and log other applicable information such as the IP address and the browser characteristics of the person downloading (ask you Web gurus). Some of this may be captured by your Web server logs but many companies don't turn these on (or only turn on a few); these logs get really big really fast so most companies don't bother. 2. CGI to Email ---------------- Another alternative is the CGI creates a request to either a person or a process that then emails the person the PDF file. 3. Email - CGI --------------- Another alternative is a user sends in a request via email. Either a person or a process monitors the incoming email requests. If the email address is on an "approved list", then the requested PDF file is emailed back to the person.. The issue is, What is the business problem you're trying to solve? Why do you need to control access? How confidential are the PDF files, what is the risk if they are accessed by a non-cleared person, and how much hassel are you willing to put your users through before they can access them? If you need further information, please contact me off-list. I do consult on matters such as this. Good luck, Stephen -------------------------------------------------------- Stephen D.

I had access to a test version, actually. However, it seems to be a dead product now. During the tests, we noticed that it is not extremely fast, but works reliably well. Zooming is a nice thing, but always leads to a complete resend of the view. I think it depends a lot on the actual circumstances if a local availability is not wanted. I could imagine that in most cases, it is a quality assurance issue, where one must make sure that the user always gets the newest version. If the user has the document locally, this can no longer ensured. Hope, this can help.

Well, you aren't doing anything wrong. Forms are a perfectly normal PDF feature, and should work fine. You may find that switching off "OPI processing" in Distiller will eliminate the forms and make it easier to get information. Forms are becoming more common, especially as InDesign Export makes a lot of use of them. For this reason the latest Quite A Box of Tricks (1.2h, only about a week old) can process them, to get at the images inside.

(from the readme file for the Xt) Most Quark XPress users are familiar with doing this: place a grayscale (black-and-white) TIFF image into QuarkXPress. Apply a color to the placed image. Set the background of the picture box to a different color. The image now appears in color and the color background shows through areas of the image that were white. This effect is sometimes known as fake duotones. It¹s a quick way to create a duotone-like image if you don¹t have Adobe Photoshop. This effect looks good on screen but the composite PostScript output from QuarkXPress doesn¹t reproduce what is displayed on screen. The image knocks out the background color and spot colors are converted into their process (C, M, Y, K) equivalents. This is one reason why many people make separated PostScript from Quark XPress. With the advent of the new generation PDF and Extreme workflows, there is renewed interest in getting composite workflow to work properly. We approached Quark regarding this problem and they will tackle it for Quark XPress 5.0. Meanwhile, we developed a Quark XTension to solve the problem. And here it is, free, in downloadable form for the Macintosh version of QuarkXPress 4.04 or newer. We¹re not the first to solve this problem but Prinergy Print XT is the first and only one (to our knowledge) to work with Adobe Distiller 4.0 and any other PostScript 3 workflow. Every other plugin we encountered works only with that vendors¹ PostScript RIP or Normalizer. The Prinergy Print XT works with Distiller and is part of our overall effort to aid in the adoption of PDF workflows.

I made a PDF using our Scitex Brisque (PS3+Extreme) from PC PageMaker using spot colors. The Normalizer on the Brisque is Acrobat 3.0. Pitstop reported that the PDF was version 1.2, but it contained the proper spot color. It was my understanding that PDF 1.2 (Acrobat 3) converted colors to RGB by default.

Jojo is right, you can help Quark write the PostScript out "differently" so that Distiller can "understand" what was ment, and then, the PDF will RIP (better said, separate) as you expected. In some cases though, for example, appling a Quark MultiInk to a greyscale image for example, (lets say, a multi ink made of a combination of spot and process colors) - this still does not work (or, better said, it may not separate as Quark would separate it) In this case, Jojo was correct again, you can use Quark to do the separations, but then you really don't have PDF files, since you are printing to the RIP... Agfa Apogee Create offers both options, that is, we provide a Quark XTenstion that enables you to colorize TIFF files (1 and 8 bit) and write PostScript that can be converted to PDF and separates properly (Apogee create comes with the Adobe Normalizer) - and also, in the second example, where you print separations from Quark, you can "re-combine" this separated PostScript into a single page. for a quick look at the UI for Create, you can download a very small (88k) PDF file from; http://www.jahn.org/create/presentations/ApogeeCreateDialogs.pdf and you can download a thrity day trial of the full blown, nothing disabled, no "demo" writen accross the file version from; http://www.agfa.com/create/ Macintosh only, English only for now...kinda big (28MBs, sorry) I also have some slides with some graphics that explain these things visually - at worse, you can steal the graphics for YOUR slide shows ... http://www.jahn.org/create/02preso.pdf - about 1.5 MBs - 55 slides hope this helps.

Each logical group of documents in the tree is saved as a separate PDF file, with subdocuments bookmarked and nested, up to three deep, under the top level bookmark. Questions: When a user has opened one set of nested documents, then jumps to another PDF, can I pass the state of the bookmarks in the first PDF to the new PDF so that the nested bookmarks he or she has opened don't collapse? If so, do I have to be an absolute genius (not an option) to pull it off? Is this question comprehensible?

No, spot colour was a full part of PDF 1.2. Distiller 3.0 would by default convert most spot colour references to their alternate space, as a colour printer would. This alternate space would usually be CMYK. You could override this. What is new in PDF 1.3 is support for colours and images that are a mixture of one or more spot colours or spot and process colours. This was impossible before. This is "DeviceN" and probably needs a level 3 RIP to output (since PostScript had no support for mixing spot before then either).

First, a little pedantic terminology - no version of PDF has ever converted anything from one color space to another. It can't, it's a static file format. Different versions of Acrobat Distiller, however, have done that conversion. (It's important to retain the distinction when you consider the number of PS to PDF tools available - Distiller is not the only choice, I can think of at least six others off the top of my head). In this context there's one relevant difference between Distiller 3 and Distiller 4, and one difference between PDF 1.2 and 1.3: To tell Distiller 3 to retain spots you needed to mess around with Prolog and Epilog files. To tell Distiller 4 to retain spots you click a check-box in the user interface. PDF 1.2 was not capable of recording some constructs using spots, such as duotones or spot to spot grad fills as a single object. They could be handled with multiple, overprinting objects, but then they probably wouldn't print well on CMYK proofers. PDF 1.3 has the constructs to record such things in single objects that will proof properly as well as rendering properly to plates.

The original documents are created in Quark 4. Illustrator can only edit files that contain objects you could create with Illustrator in the first place. So, since PDF contains some concepts Illustrator doesn't, there will always be PDF files you can't open in Illustrator. For this reason, you should never set up a workflow that absolutely depends on opening in Illustrator. It's a useful tool when it works, but not universal.

I've received PDFs, without knowing the originating application, and have had full control of all elements once opened in Freehand. I have been able to edit text, vector images and have even extracted bitmapped files. Some parts of these elements did not come across clean (ie, gradients in vector objects; lower resolution bitmaps), but I have still been able to read information such as spot colors. Perhaps the operating platform the PDF was created in makes a different. I have seen some differences in how Acrobat behaves between Mac and PC; most notably not being able to export a PDF as EPS on the PC side. -- stewart tower Communications New Brunswick Design Services 1 (506) 453-3081 http://www.gov.nb.ca/cnb/design/design1.htm Receive the latest PDF News in your Inbox. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 16-Feb-2001 14:00:50-GMT,2997;000000000001 Return-Path: Received: from everglades.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [208.155.48.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id HAA03699 for ; Fri, 16 Feb 2001 07:00:49 -0700 (MST) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA19960; Fri, 16 Feb 2001 07:59:56 -0600 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Fri, 16 Feb 2001 07:52:19 -0600 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id HAA19677; Fri, 16 Feb 2001 07:52:14 -0600 Received: from gatekeeper.nytimes.com (gatekeeper.nytimes.com [199.181.175.201]) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id HAA19667 for ; Fri, 16 Feb 2001 07:52:11 -0600 From: triggp@nytimes.com Received: from mail2.nytimes.com (mail2.nytimes.com [170.149.207.84]) by gatekeeper.nytimes.com (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with ESMTP id IAA28093 for ; Fri, 16 Feb 2001 08:50:21 -0500 (EST) Received: from notesgate.nytimes.com (notesgate.nytimes.com [170.149.201.214]) by mail2.nytimes.com (8.8.8+Sun/8.8.8) with SMTP id IAA04319 for ; Fri, 16 Feb 2001 08:52:06 -0500 (EST) Received: by notesgate.nytimes.com(Lotus SMTP MTA v4.6.6 (890.1 7-16-1999)) id 852569F5.004C095A ; Fri, 16 Feb 2001 08:50:31 -0500 X-Lotus-FromDomain: NYTIMES To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com Message-ID: <852569F5.004C08F5.00@notesgate.nytimes.com> Date: Fri, 16 Feb 2001 08:51:00 -0500 Subject: Re: [PDF] Converting PDF files to Illustrator Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline 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 having difficulty converting PDF files to Illustrator. I have tried opening the PDF in Illustrator and exporting the PDF to an EPS in Acrobat. The problem I am having is due to the fact that the embedded text in the PDF has foreign font encoding which is getting screwed up when importing to Illustrator. The original documents are created in Quark 4. Any Ideas?? ============ We're having some of the same problems with a batch of files converted to PDF with Acrobat 4, no problem with version 3. The only work around we've found to get them back into illustrator, is to open the PDF in Acrobat and export as an EPS file, telling it not to embed the fonts. If you then have the fonts installed on your computer you can open it again in Illustrator...

Primarily, the answer seems to be certain kinds of font. PDF files can contain any of about half a dozen different kinds of font. There may be other things that vanish, like image masking (a feature I've never yet seen used in a PDF) or patterns (rare but not unseen). I'm sure you'd also lose such important details as OPI information.

I've got a whole bunch of PDF's in my test file library that use image masks, and of different flavors. I've got documents that draw entire images by using a mask. Plus, any document created by PDFlib using transparent GIF images will end up using a color mask (which is pretty cool, though it was a pain to implement in our rasterizer ;). If you'd like to see them, let me know! >or patterns (rare but not unseen). I've got test files with patterns, but they are all purposely created as test files of patterns.

No, spot colour was a full part of PDF 1.2. Distiller 3.0 would by default convert most spot colour references to their alternate space, as a colour printer would. This alternate space would usually be CMYK. You could override this. What is new in PDF 1.3 is support for colours and images that are a mixture of one or more spot colours or spot and process colours. This was impossible before. This is "DeviceN" and probably needs a level 3 RIP to output (since PostScript had no support for mixing spot before then either).

Open the file in Canvas 7, then ungroup to ther level you want (i.e. until the graphics are not attached to other things) then do with them what you will. One of the nice things about Canvas is that you can extract and handle both vector and bitmapped graphics.

Ari's PDF Splitter () will do this as a plug-in for Acrobat (if you are doing this as an interactive, client process).

Acrobat does not work completely if it is not installed locally. 2. I don't think Adobe support Terminal Server environments, and I have heard of printing problems. If something works in regular NT, but not in a terminal server environment, this is really something to take up with the OS supplier - it is they who are claiming compatibility, not Adobe.

It appears that the image is a JPEG image, but that's its compression tables are too large for Distiller. Try resaving the image in a different format (TIFF, BMP, etc.) and see if that solves the problem - I suspect it will!

I am to create forms that will (once the client has been selected) insert: the client name, the associated state address & company ASX code. All the fields that I wish to show these different aspects in, are located individually on the form. I have an idea of how to do this however, I thought I'd pass it on to yourself to see if you had any better idea's. The real problem that I encounter is that when you add items to a combo or list box, you can't add specific actions to an item once selected from the list or combo box. You can only add actions to the combo box itself. Any Idea's...? or Perhaps you might know some postscrip that could alter the properties of certain feilds...? Thanx heaps for your time.

I have created an autorun CDROM from a client's .pdf file. I have made the autorun instruction call for the following: open=folder\AcroRd32.exe folder\filename.pdf (NOTE: Not all the fonts were embedded when the original .pdf file was created from Pagemaker6.5.) The CDROM successfully runs Acrobat Reader and opens the specified file as expected. However, a box soon pops up stating that a font cannot be found and viewing and printing may be incorrect. This was all acceptable to my client. However, when a proof CDROM was sent to my client, the document opened via the autorun had fonts which were radically different from the original (apparently at random places, too!). But when the .pdf file is opened directly from explorer, the file opens - again with substitute fonts - but ones which are acceptable to the client. How is it possible that the file appears different when opened via autorun as opposed to from explorer, and does anyone know of a solution! My feeling is that when accessed through autorun, the file only draws on resources available on the CD. But since all the reader components are on the CD, why don't the Adobe substitute fonts do their job? The fonts in question are Palatino. Finally, another possible solution - is there a way to retrospectively embed fonts into an already created .pdf document, and retain all links, bookmarks, etc?

I experienced some problems with the links for the Feb. 5-7 event. The first time I clicked Registration Form a new window appeared, but no PDF. I tried it a second time and it worked; it just took awhile. Then I tried scrolling to see the whole page and the scroll bar didn't function. Under Feb. 5-7 Agenda loaded but it was a 5 page blank document; I think I tried it 3 times. It also took a very long time to load. The other links seemed to work fine; though the PDF for the attorneys only Sidebar seminar in Reno appeared to have lots of white space ??? It's a three-page document with just a little something at the top of each page? I hope this helps; let me know if you need more details. I'd be happy to look at it again. > -----Original Message----- > From: Tanya Renne [SMTP:tanya@rennedevelopment.com] > Sent: Thursday, February 22, 2001 12:56 PM > To: PDF > Subject: [PDF] SITE CHECK: Website download > > > The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com > __________________________________________________________________ > > Can someone with a minute go to this address and try clicking on the > links labeled "registration" and "agenda" ... > > http://www.ncsea.org/NCSEA_training.html > > I'm having no problem on both platforms with several different browsers > but the client can only download for the internet in Acrobat 3.0 but not > reliably in 4.0 from several machines ... they are using IE 5.5. > > Platform, browser, and version no. of acrobat appreciated. > > Thanks, > Tanya > > Receive the latest PDF News in your Inbox. > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > -- Receive the latest PDF News in your Inbox. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 22-Feb-2001 19:44:11-GMT,3400;000000000001 Return-Path: Received: from everglades.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [208.155.48.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA13261 for ; Thu, 22 Feb 2001 12:44:10 -0700 (MST) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA03778; Thu, 22 Feb 2001 13:41:35 -0600 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Thu, 22 Feb 2001 13:32:09 -0600 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id NAA03106; Thu, 22 Feb 2001 13:32:07 -0600 Received: from comcom.com (netsrv03.comcom.com [207.67.13.2]) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id NAA03100 for ; Thu, 22 Feb 2001 13:32:06 -0600 Received: from mailbox.comcom.com (mailbox [207.67.13.213]) by comcom.com (8.9.3+Sun/8.9.3) with ESMTP id NAA14172 for ; Thu, 22 Feb 2001 13:32:53 -0600 (CST) Received: by mailbox with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id ; Thu, 22 Feb 2001 13:39:48 -0600 Message-ID: <20D5861A4053D411A3B200105A0A7EDB6D5323@mailbox> From: "Leone-Thiel, Pat" To: "'pdf@lists.pdfzone.com'" Subject: RE: [PDF] SITE CHECK: Website download Date: Thu, 22 Feb 2001 13:39:47 -0600 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" 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 __________________________________________________________________ Windoze2000 Acrobat 4.05 IE 5.0 Acrobat appears to launch (splash appears), the Location: shows the .pdf in the path, then the screen goes white, (no Acrobat tools avail.) and the browser hangs.

Excellent....thanx heaps for your expertise in this matter. Eg, Say I have a combo box with items that resemble company names (IE Westpac Banking Corp, St George Bank Limited, National Australia Bank...etc) Once I select an item from the combo box, I would want to see certain other fields that would be shown or hidden. (the show/hide action). Say I choose Westpac Banking Corporation from the combo box. I would also like to see that companies ASX code shown down the bottom of the form (through text fields), & the appropriate address shown up the top (Also through text feilds.) So I guess the script text I would need is something that singles out the particular items within the combo box, then the script text to put show/hide actions for feilds within the form on that particular selected item from the combo box. Is this possible....? Brett -----Original Message----- From: geojohn@att.net [mailto:geojohn@att.net] Sent: Friday, 23 February 2001 5:09 To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com Subject: RE: [PDF] Forms.

You would initialize these arrays either at application level (if you use them in various forms), or at document level (the same way as you would define document level functions). Right now, I am working on a way to create the arrays based on a text field in the form when opening the page (which would be a third approach). Now, what you would do in your combo box is to show the company names, and have the index (or main index for multi-dimensional arrays) as return value. You then fill out all the fields based on the value of your combo box (which is the key to your array elements)... Et voilà, there you are... Hope, this can help.

One way is to create a new Illustrator file and make a box filled with the desired spot color. Save the document as a PDF and insert the document into your PDF file. Now you can select the new color with Pitstop and save the color to the repository.

I assemble PDF files from several sources and, as such, it is very difficult to number the pages in the source documents properly. I cannot seem to find a way to have Acrobat Acrobat 4.0 to number my pdf assembled document so that the page numbers appear on the actual document. I have tried the Document Menu "Number Pages" but this does not work. It does, however indicate page number as one slides the scroll tab up and down on a multipage document. Can one number pages while in Acrobat Acrobat 4.0? Thank you.

So far, I've seen that courier is substituted, but I can't find any indication of what the original font was (other than going back to the native file). I've checked FILE>INFO>FONTS, and I've used Pitstop 4.6. I've tried removing the Distadb.dos file to prevent Distiller from substituting, but still no luck as to the original font name. I think it might be an issue of how the driver transfers font name information to the postscript file. It's not a huge problem, but it's frustrating from a workflow/training standpoint (I want to do all my preflight work within Acrobat). Any thoughts?

I assemble PDF files from several sources and, as such, it is very difficult to number the pages in the source documents properly. I cannot seem to find a way to have Acrobat Acrobat 4.0 to number my pdf assembled document so that the page numbers appear on the actual document. I have tried the Document Menu "Number Pages" but this does not work. It does, however indicate page number as one slides the scroll tab up and down on a multipage document. Can one number pages while in Acrobat Acrobat 4.0? Thank you.

Thanks, Aandi Now I remember calling Adobe several weeks ago and ordering the update. It's so complex, they send it out on a CD, they don't make it a download from their site. So I am waiting for CD.

What Acrobat is doing is Importing a new image. It can do it in the same doc, or in a new doc. In your case, it's importing it in the same doc. Of course, it's sent to the end (last page). You can't just drag & drop images the way you think you can. > How can I just insert it in the page I want and how can i just resize it as I > want I'll start by the end. You can't resize images in Acrobat. To insert it, there are various ways. The easiest one, is to reproduce the original doc (if you can) with the right logo in it. After that, create a PDF with that "page". Go back to the original doc and clic Doc-->Replace Pages.. (Not Insert). It'll prompt you to choose the file with the pages to replace. Choose the new PDF. Replace. This way, Links and Bookmarks will be preserved no matter how many pages you replace. (I said replace... Don't insert them..) Before doing this, make a backup copy of the original. If you can't make it work, at least you won't screw up all the job. There are other ways to do this. I'll leave the advice to others.. Good luck.

Make the new logo a part of a new PDF, sized as you want it. Then use the Object touch-up tool to copy/paste from the new document into the document you want to edit. If this sounds a lot of work...it is. Late-stage editing of PDFs in this way is rarely a good idea, or a time saver in the long run.

What Acrobat is doing is Importing a new image. It can do it in the same doc, or in a new doc. In your case, it's importing it in the same doc. Of course, it's sent to the end (last page). You can't just drag & drop images the way you think you can. > How can I just insert it in the page I want and how can i just resize it as I > want I'll start by the end. You can't resize images in Acrobat. To insert it, there are various ways. The easiest one, is to reproduce the original doc (if you can) with the right logo in it. After that, create a PDF with that "page". Go back to the original doc and clic Doc-->Replace Pages.. (Not Insert). It'll prompt you to choose the file with the pages to replace. Choose the new PDF. Replace. This way, Links and Bookmarks will be preserved no matter how many pages you replace. (I said replace... Don't insert them..) Before doing this, make a backup copy of the original. If you can't make it work, at least you won't screw up all the job. There are other ways to do this. I'll leave the advice to others.. Good luck.

Do this: Create a new link. In actions, place "ExecuteMenuItem" then choose the menu DOC-->Next page. That's it. You have probably linked to a view and.. that's what you get. Acrobat shows you the exact place you told him to show. There's another way. while in FitWindow view in the first page, do a link and just advance to the next one (however you want). Any of the two should do it.

I sometimes have to replace our company logo in a form for various reasons (like last minute deadlines). I accomplish this by using the button function under the form tool. Here's how I do it: 1. Save just the logo as a PDF (scan it or convert a file to PDF in Photoshop) in the size you want and name it. I'll call mine Logo1. 2. Open the PDF you wish to edit and select the Forms Tool. 3. Create a form field where the logo from Step 1 is to be placed. 4. In Field Properties>Options Tab: Enter Name: (Logo1); Type: Button; Layout: Icon Only. Under Button Face Attributes, choose Select Icon: (find Logo1). 5. Don't press OK just yet. 6. Go to Field Properties>Appearance Tab: Check Read Only under Common Properties and Select Visible in the Form Field window. (Also, ensure that no border or background color is selected above these fields. The Text area won't matter as you have chosen an Icon Only layout. 7. Now press OK. 8. Select the Hand Tool and admire your ingenuity! If anyone would like a sample, send me an e-mail and I will forward a PDF attachment.

Make the new logo a part of a new PDF, sized as you want it. Then use the Object touch-up tool to copy/paste from the new document into the document you want to edit. If this sounds a lot of work...it is. Late-stage editing of PDFs in this way is rarely a good idea, or a time saver in the long run.

I disagree. Actually, there is a very flexible way to add logos to the top of pages throughout a document in the standard Acrobat 4 program. Create the logo as a separate PDF file. Open your target document. Create a form button using the form tool. Specify that you want the field to be a "Button" and then use the Options tab to indicate that you want the layout "Icon Only". Then use "Select Icon" to choose the logo PDF as the icon. The resulting button field can be resized and position anywhere on the page. You can alter the field's appearance as well with color backgrounds and borders, rollovers, etc. Now the really cool part. Select the button field and go to Tools/Forms/Fields/Duplicate. This function allows you to copy any field throughout any or all pages of your document! Great for adding navigation buttons after creating your PDF and you can make them invisible when the document is printed as well. Button fields are easier to copy and paste between PDFs because they are scalable. Hope this helps, -- C.

I ended up scanning a printed page to recreate my graphics. I tried converting the offenders into various types of graphics, but they refused to open in my graphics applications.

In the future, I should be able to return the graphic to the creator and have them convert it for me - what's the best graphic format to use for PDFs?

Sometimes when we or our customer view the PDF file in a web browser (either I.E. or Netscape) portions of the document do not appear. They also do not print. However, if we then rotate the document (most of the time it must be rotated 180 degrees) the missing portions reappear and remain there even when the document is rotated back to the original orientation. The missing portions also appear if the document is saved and then loaded outside the browser in Acrobat. We cannot reproduce the problem on all PC's and the problem does not seem to appear if browser integration is turned off. Any ideas? The only thing about the PDF file I questions is the fact that it is made up of many small images. Could that be causing either the OCX or Netscape plug-in to have problems?

These define the bleed & trim (or crop?) boxes appropiately. And there is the "Prinergy Plugin" for Distiller that includes a routine that detects Quark's cropmarks and defines the trimbox (or is it the cropbox?) from them too. And the same function is available from Apogee create. Now, the xtension is a better choice for two reasons: 1) it will work regardless of whether the print was made with or without cropmarks. 2) supposedly Quark has a rounding error when placing the cropmarks, and thus the pages could end up with incorrect sizes if the info is extracted from them. So the question is, if both MadeToPrint and Prinergy Plugin or Apogee Create are used, which will prevail? will the auto-detection feature of Prinergy/Apogee prevail over the PDFMarks inserted by MadeToPrint, or the inverse is true? Any of the involved (Callas, Agfa, CreoScitex/Heidelberg) has tested this? best regards, -- Roberto Michelena EOS S.A.

Do this: Create a new link. In actions, place "ExecuteMenuItem" then choose the menu DOC-->Next page. That's it. You have probably linked to a view and.. that's what you get. Acrobat shows you the exact place you told him to show. There's another way. while in FitWindow view in the first page, do a link and just advance to the next one (however you want).

To summarise our problems. We have to embed all fonts in our PDF files. After the PDFs have been produced we need to merge them into older PDF files to produce the final updated document. We are merging the PDFs to avoid having to redo every Hyperlink and bookmark everytime we release a new update. However, a new feature in Distiller 4 throws up an error message when we try to merge the files because of the embedded fonts. This is "The documents contain subset fonts with the same name that cannot be merged" Adobe support have been unable to solve this problem with Distiller 4 and their solution was to use Distiller 3 for the final merge. This worked. However, the PC with Distiller 3 on recently ate itself and we are unable to replace our copy of Acrobat 3 CD to reinstall. On approaching Adobe they stated that they no longer held CDs of previous versions and that there is no where to download any of the previous versions (even though the 3.x Update files are still there). The 3.x update files will not install on a v4 system. What we require now is either: 1. A way to configure Distiller 4 to avoid the merge files problem (the ideal solution) or/ 2. A downloadable version of Distiller 3.x to allow us to reload Any assistance you can give would be greatly appreciated yours hopefully Kevin Roberts Network Administrator InterConnect Communications Ltd.

This is > >"The documents contain subset fonts with the same name that cannot be >merged" ouch!! does that mean that if someone: 1) has a document that is 50 pages 2) prints the pages one by one to Distiller, and then ends up with 50 pdfs. 3) has Distiller configured to embed all fonts and always subset then the 50 PDFs can't be merged back together into a single document? Never thought of that, but makes sense. Acrobat would need to add up the subsets to end up with a superset of them all, one that might still be a subset of the original font. In other words, it would need to merge the fonts character by character. Now, I don't see why it wouldn't be possible, but I guess it's not implemented. So the solution meanwhile would be not to subset the fonts when originally creating the documents, and after merging, then applying a Pitstop action to subset them. If you need subsetted versions of the first stage (unmerged), then distill without subsetting and make a Pitstop Server action to subset and "save as". So you end up with two versions, one subsetted and one that is not subsetted and thus appropiate for merging. Not nice solutions, though. -- Roberto Michelena EOS S.A.

Distiller, when it created the PDF documents, subsetted fonts instead of doing a full embed. Then Acrobat didn't like the fact the subsets had the same name, but didn't match :(.

In one common scenario, they will have to make a single PDF "flat" from eight single-page PDFs; these could easily contain the same font subsetted, in fact a couple of them could contain the font not subsetted, and the rest of them subsetted but differently because they didn't contain the same text. Will an imposition app do: 1) rename the fonts so that they are all different, and include all them (so actually a lot of redundant data) in the resulting PDF doc? 2) merge the subsets character by character to create a superset of them? 3) fail miserably 4) fail unless it has access to the full font etc etc? -- Roberto Michelena EOS S.A.

The QuarkXpress generated crop marks are not correct for the metric system, and most imposition software I know, incl. Preps, Ultimate, FACILIS and our own 'home' developed one rely on the crop marks in the job. QuarkXpress simply use integer math for placing crop marks even though real decimal values can be passed through to the print job (via the PPD) to specify a precise page size. However, Xpress erase the page initialized and create a new page based on truncated versions of the decimal values, and hence the printed page image and the crop marks are mis-placed. Perhaps this, as the many other issues discussed recently, has it's origin in the fact that Quark Xpress basically is a very old software package with a very old internal engine that doesn't make use of the PostScript of today.

The consequence of this is that we get the file perfect but have to redo all the links in the document again after Distilling to PDF and some of these are very large. We are considering using Framemaker to produce the .ps file first because we believe that we can produce links directly into the file before distilling to PDF, do know if this is true?.

Acrobat can not be used on a server because doing so would violate the Acrobat End User License Agreement. Our StampPDF Batch application, running on your server, would easily solve your problem. In addition, you can follow-up the stamping process with a call to our SecurSign application to encrypt the materials, on your server, before the materials are presented for downloading.

Here is the text with your files and an imaginary path to the files. Make sure that your source PSs are _not_ in a distiller watched folder. Note: this is an implementation of a sample file provided on the Acrobat 3.1 CD somewhere in the "distiller" section. The pathing conventions are different for Unix, Mac and PC, mine is PC. One reason we work with the PSs rather than the post-processed PDFs is to preserve pagination for bookmarks and links which tend to get very mixed up if the concatenation is done in Exchange after distilling. One cool aspect of this process is how the script tolerates the pieces not being there which can allow you to use the same script for more than one task. This also means if you are missing a file, the results are silent (unless you read the log). If you named the template file "finished.ps" then the resulting PDF would be "finished.pdf". /prun { /mysave save def dup = flush RunFile clear cleardictstack mysave restore } def (c:/Path/XYZ-001-001-P.ps) prun (c:/Path/XYZ-002-003-P.ps) prun (c:/Path/XYZ-004-005-P.ps) prun (c:/Path/XYZ-006-007-P.ps) prun Sincerely, David Pepper Applications Programmer dpepper@disa.org • 703/548-7005x167 Data Interchange Standards Association 333 John Carlyle Street, Suite 600 Alexandria, VA 22314 www.disa.org At 07:59 PM 3/2/01 +0100, you wrote: >The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com >__________________________________________________________________ > >We're creating mail order catalogs with QaurkXpress Software.

We publish a Command Reference Guide, a large doc that covers about 1400 commands. We'd like to put the commands into a web-enabled database in order to track changes and make them accessible to reviewers. In the DB, each command's description would be an HTML page. But then we'd like to export the DB contents to some printer friendly format for distribution. Ideally, the export process would take the individual records, join them into chapters, and maintain the formatting. Has anybody done this? Any advice?

The first page, created in word, is a hot link index to the specific Product Categories. Example- "Car Stereos" followed by specific products "AIWA CDC-MP3"). Similar to bookmarks. Clicking on this link brings you to the specific page. I could imbed an "address" next to (or underneath, in a different layer) the category "Car Stereos" so that I am when I print a PDF document of the price list in various formats (A4 vs. Letterhear vs. Portrait vs Landscape, etc.) I hope to be insensitive to page and location changes for my "Hot Links". My question is that on the First or "Index" page of this PDF Price list I want "Hot Links" to the various Categories (Car Stereos, TVs, radios, Computers, etc) somehow imbeded in the Category so I do not have to laboriously create links manually when I print in a different format. Is this possible to do???? My database is extremely flexible and printing PDF documents in various formats solves individual problems and preferences. But I do not want to manually redo these links every time the printout changes. I cannot do the whole price list in Word, I do not have the flexibility I need. In summary, I do not want to use the manual link too to link these dozens of categories to the actual starting page location. Thank you.

When I get my post script file I am trying then to run that file through distiller to see my results. With some of my files I get this error: %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ] %%%%[ Warning: PostScript error.

(You can print to a postscript file, or "Publish to PDF, though you still need to run it through distiller.) If you are in a PC environment, this is a very good option. If you want to consider this way, I would be glad to provide more info and other contacts who would be pleased to help. I recently set up templates for something like this for a local association and trained them how to maintain and modify it themselves.

Japanese text printed to PostScript from a PDF usually won't Distill on a Western version of Distiller for some reason. The same PostScript job will likely run on a RIP anyway (with CID support, of course), and usually also on a Japanese Distiller on a Japanese Windows OS. Why?

I am trying to convert this file to Post Script. To get the PDF file to post script I am printing to a file from Acrobat (4.05). When I get my post script file I am trying then to run that file through distiller to see my results. With some of my files I get this error: %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ] %%%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%Distill Time: 1 seconds (00:00:01) With another file I was able to produce a new PDF by running the post script file through distiller but the margins came out wrong and my document was cut off on the right hand side. I am not sure if it is the Japanese text that is causing me all these problems or if it is something else? Has anyone seen this or had problems with Japanese PDF files?

Here is the text with your files and an imaginary path to the files. Make sure that your source PSs are _not_ in a distiller watched folder. Note: this is an implementation of a sample file provided on the Acrobat 3.1 CD somewhere in the "distiller" section. The pathing conventions are different for Unix, Mac and PC, mine is PC. One reason we work with the PSs rather than the post-processed PDFs is to preserve pagination for bookmarks and links which tend to get very mixed up if the concatenation is done in Exchange after distilling. One cool aspect of this process is how the script tolerates the pieces not being there which can allow you to use the same script for more than one task. This also means if you are missing a file, the results are silent (unless you read the log).

I assume you are trying to open a specific page from an HTML document. I just came across a knowledge base article on the Adobe web site that explains how to do this. Go to: www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/a17e.htm. You have to create a "named destination" in the Acrobat document. You can then create a simple html link from the HTML document to a page in the Acrobat document. Hope this helps.

It's not possible with JavaScript, but you can specify center or right alignment using pdfmarks or a non- standard FDF. However, right-aligned combo boxes are not pretty, since they align to the right edge of the down- arrow button, not the left edge, so clipping occurs. Printing is OK though. Center aligned is also OK. If you want more details, post again.

The files are individual conference presentations. My client now wants a 'printer-friendly' version of each file as well. In other words, a mono version with plain background to save peoples' ink! My plan was to hit the black&white button in PowerPoint, then make a pdf in the same way as before, but the colour info still comes through. So, I tried to 'print to pdf writer' using PowerPoint's b&w print option. This is really successful, producing exactly what I want, EXCEPT the momochrome file size is much bigger than the colour version printed directly from PowerPoint (4.26MB compared to 2.03MB). A bit more experimentation revealed that it is the print to pdf writer which is creating the bigger file (when printed this way in colour, the file leaps to 11.8MB). So the question becomes - how can I get a mono pdf version of a PowerPoint file - with ease! Any and all help appreciated. Thanks, Andrew PS I also have PitStop, but can't find a function there to resolve this matter.

Try "Quite a Box of Tricks" from Quite Software. It has a global convert to grayscale that works beautifully. Much better than trying to hack around with Powerpoint and driver settings that work do what you want. However, note that it sounds like your client also wants that mono version to have a clear background. Thus, it might be necessary to change your masters in the presentation as well to eliminate backgrounds. - Dov At 3/5/2001 02:51 PM, Andrew Fox wrote: >Hello, > >I currently use the 'make pdf' button from within PowerPoint to generate >files for web distribtion/publication.

Does anyone know of a way to get information stored inside a cookie, into a form field in Acrobat? The machines involved are used for presenting mocked up websites, and do not have access to internet services. Part of the presentation consists of an HTML form. By using JS, we can save all the data entered inside the HTML form as a cookie. I would like to take the form data saved within that cookie and [with Acrobat open in the browser] open a pdf file, then insert the cookie information into predetermined form fields within the pdf file. Is this possible without CGI and/or a server? We are using full Acrobat 4.05 and IE4.5 on a PC laptop. Thanks in advance for any info you can provide.

It's not possible with JavaScript, but you can specify center or right alignment using pdfmarks or a non- standard FDF. However, right-aligned combo boxes are not pretty, since they align to the right edge of the down- arrow button, not the left edge, so clipping occurs. Printing is OK though. Center aligned is also OK. If you want more details, post again.

It doesn't use cookies, and may not work with recent versions of MSIE, but you can check out one approach at http://www.peakforms.com/get2pdf.html. The HTML form "submits" using a GET to a a PDF, which then decodes the query string into the name/value pairs. Once you have the data, you can use more JavaScript to place it in form fields. This is the only way I know how to do what you want, apart from running a local web server such as Microsoft's PWS.

Your idea seems like a good approach - sort of what I did when printing to 'AcrobatPDFwriter', although in that case my file got too big... However... I have tried loading the driver for a 'XeroxXprint4915' postscript printer and generating a .prn file which I then take through Distiller. The problem is that my finished .pdf file is still too big - I am ending up with a file of around 3.5MB, whereas the one button approach from within PowerPoint generates a .pdf in full colour at 2MB (from a 5MB .ppt file). I have tried reducing quality settings with little gain. I have also checked out Quite a box of Tricks' which is useful but not necessary, I think, if I can do this print thing successfully. So, I am still a little confused. Any further thoughts?

I did set B&W in the printer set-up, yes, and tried to get distiller working to produce a smaller file. I think this is still the route - just a bit more experimentation with settings. Quite a Box of Tricks is great, and I'm glad to know about it, but I would need to go through each .ppt and remove text shadows from each slide (not everything is always set up from a master!), as well as re-formatting the backgrounds, before using it. PowerPoint's B&W button does that with one click, which is a big time-saver, especially with a number of files to process. The thing is, that 'make PDF' button in PowerPoint somehow makes a very small, and presentable, file - but only in colour! If it could do the same into B&W, I'd be laughing. (So, I am still not quite laughing!)

(Acrobat 4.05a) For the Distiller settings, I used 300dpi high-quality JPEGs for the bitmaps and embedded color space for the color management. Well, the printer couldn't run the job properly. A red logo (in vector format) defined as a PMS color did not correctly knockout of the black background (it was all black, i.e., it was transparent). The job printed correctly to our Ricoh color laser printer with a Fiery engine and to the client's Textronix. Also, two colors, a pale blue and a pale yellow, printed as white (i.e., the color didn't hold up at the light end of the value curve). When I examined the file with PitStop, I discovered that the colors were defined in CIE LAB color space. That surprised me because I made the scans in CMYK (I may have converted them back to RGB to save 25%--I haven't double checked that). The inks were defined as PMS colors. Two questions: 1.

Thanks, Todd, that's what I did! (Fortunately, I print a PS file to disk, so I had the original file available. I just reset the Distiller parameters to NOT embed the profile, and voila. It worked (I think, I haven't heard any weeping and gnashing of teeth from the printer yet!). ------------------- Michael Brady jbrady@email.unc.edu http://www.unc.edu/~jbrady/index.html Receive the latest PDF News in your Inbox. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7-Mar-2001 17:24:16-GMT,2611;000000000000 Return-Path: Received: from everglades.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [208.155.48.8]) by sunshine.math.utah.edu (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id KAA18169 for ; Wed, 7 Mar 2001 10:24:15 -0700 (MST) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA00388; Wed, 7 Mar 2001 11:22:19 -0600 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Wed, 7 Mar 2001 11:13:57 -0600 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA32451; Wed, 7 Mar 2001 11:13:53 -0600 Received: from mail.inficon.com (mail.inficon.com [12.31.1.1]) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA32445 for ; Wed, 7 Mar 2001 11:13:51 -0600 From: rinch@Inficon.com Subject: [PDF] is Acrobat 3 compatible with Win2000?

Our current FM version is 5.5.6, which also includes the full Acrobat 3.x package. Our IS department is upgrading our computers from Win95 to Win2000. After installing 5.5.6 and Acrobat 3x on the new Win2000 computers, the FrameMaker FILE >> SAVE AS function no longer works. It can't find the printer required to make the PDF file. My questions are: Is the Acrobat 3x program on the FrameMaker 5.5.6 disk compatible with Win2000, or do we need to upgrade to FM 6.0 (which uses Acrobat 4x software)? If the Acrobat 3x program, installed from the FM 5.5.6 disk, is compatible with Win 2000, what can we do to get the FrameMaker FILE >> SAVE AS to work on Win2000?
