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.

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?

If you can somehow get Acrobat 3.x to install under Windows 2000 and want to interface FrameMaker with it, you should also avoid "save as PDF" like the plague. It just doesn't work in the general case and that includes use with later versions of Acrobat as well. Use of FrameMaker 5.5.6 with Windows 2000 and any PostScript printer or Acrobat does require either Windows 2000 SP1 or getting the updated PostScript driver from the Adobe web site (you need the Adobe Universal Windows PostScript Driver Installer 1.0.2 which updates the PSCRIPT driver under Windows 2000). - Dov At 3/7/2001 09:09 AM, rinch@Inficon.com wrote: >We have a 10 seat concurrent use site license for Adobe FrameMaker.

Both are reputable Type 1 PostScript fonts, made by the big guys (Adobe and Berthold). When I print a PS file to disk to be distilled separately, I select the option to download TrueType and PostScript fonts. Then, in Distiller, I select "Embed all fonts" and "Embed Subset: 100%." Well, that should do it, I'd think. But, no. When I reviewed the file in Acro 4.05, it said that the Akzidenz font was NOT embedded (AdobeSans MM was used), but Usherwood WAS embedded! Go figure! So, I used the text tool and tried to embed the font by selecting that option in the TouchUp tool dialog box. The embed option was grayed out. Does anyone know what might cause this?

Most likely, either the Akzidenz Grotesk Type 1 font was not in a location that could be found by the Distiller (or perhaps the driver) or if under Windows NT 4, somehow a TrueType version got shoved into the print stream with embedding prohibited.

The point is that the PostScript Type 1 font format does not contain any embedding information at all. Therefore, technically, it will get embedded. The quote you added concerns font formats which do actually have embedding information (and that's TrueType (and now also OpenType)). If there is a licencing document somewhere around with a Type 1 font, it is your responsability to acknowledge it.

Acrobat Distiller 4.05, by comparison, embeds fonts >unless their licensing restriction information specifically prohibits >embedding. I think what Dov was attempting to communicate was that because there is no "mechanisim" in the Type1 specification for a font manufacturer to use to restrict/disallow embedding, it follows that a Type1 font is always embeddable. Nothing there that i can put inside the font to tell Distiller either way. When we create the font as a Type1 font, there is no "way" for us to put any code in the font that would tell Distiller not to embed it. the same is true for other things - I can't put anything in the font that would stop it from downloading the font to a RIP, and i can't put anything in the font that would tell an application that it should not outline that font. You can do these things when you build a font as a TrueType font. Acrobat Distiller 3.0 sometimes "ignored" poorly written "don't embed" flags/code we put inside a font - which really ticked off a few font vendors - they would yell at Adobe, claiming things like, "hey, we put the flags in there, and you are ignoring them" - Adobe (i feel) was pretty clear about what the flag was supposed to look like, and when it was not "quite right", well, they ignored ones that were vague or written "incorrectly" and then went ahead and embeded that TrueType font. Adobe fixed that with Acrobat Distller 4, which (in the world i live in) caused an even bigger up roar from people who had fonts that used to embed and then all of a suddlen, with Acrobat Distiller 4, they did not embed! - and that really ticked off a LOT of Adobe customers, people whom bought Acrobat with hard earned money, people who felt that they had their workflow all reliable, flinging PDF files with fonts embeded all over tarnation, and then suddenly, it didn't embed the fonts that it did embed before. Myself, I could not believe that Apple Charcoal could not be embeded. Even Courier, the font for YEARS as a prepress jockey i did EVERYTHING to keep out of the files, could not be embeded. Adobe, bless their cotton socks, took the heat and did the right thing (or, possibly, from a font vendors perspective, they corrected a wrong thing) Agfa makes both Type1 and TrueType fonts. (as you now hear the other shoe dropping with a loud thud) Me, i am a PDF evenagelist, so i ONLY use Type1, ALWAYS embed, and reject any design or brochure or carton or file to be used in the prepress that my budget buys for the collateral and materials for the product i am involved with. uses ANYTHING but Type1 fonts, and all bets are off in a blind "exchange" with a third party. - I do this so the PDF can contain all the things it needs to print "elsewhere". Now, granted, we have some people in the Kanji world that would like to protect the fonts - they have dongles/hasp/hardware protection schemes that disallow using the font UNLESS that hardware protection device is available. These fonts are very big, have over 14,000 charaters and are expensive. You don't ever want to embed the entire font set, as it would make your PDF over a gigabyte. Just so you understand "why" a font manufacturer might want to use TrueType or some technology to protect fonts, well, it so we can pay for our kids college debts and support my crack cocaine habit. KIDDING! In fact, in certain markets, we are even considering building a special version of the product i manage (Agfa Apogee Create) that will insert "some special code" that when you print it, and the RIP does not have the font, well, the RIP will flush the job (even though the font is embeded in the PDF) be glad you don't have to deal with that! hope this helps the forum understand font protection from a "different perspective".

What then does that note on http://www.pdfzone.com/rich/fonts1.html mean? Is it wrong? "Note: The vast majority of PostScript Type 1 fonts embed properly. They are supposed to, according to Adobe's tech sheets, but there may be an occasional exception. Contrary to what many believe, the Type 1 Font Specification does not require that a T1 font be embeddable."

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.

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.

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.

So far I have used PaperPort because I can drag the scan straight to PDF and it converts it on the fly. Next I thought I would try using Acrobat Scan. However, each time I go to File / Import / Scan it gives me the Alert box: "Unable to find requested device on this machine" even though it does list the name of my scanner. My scanner is TWAIN compliant and is connected to my Win 98 SE machine via a USB port. I thought it might be that I don't have the required "Photoshop Acquire" plug-in. [Photoshop 5.5 is loaded on my pc.] So I searched the Acrobat 4.0 CD, the PhotoShop plug-in folders on my pc, www.Adobe.com and www.planetpdf.com and could not find the Acquire plug-in that is mentioned on page 188 of the Distiller / Help / Acrobat Guide. A - Do you think the missing plug-in is my problem? B - If yes to "A", any ideas where I can get this plug-in? C - If no to "A", any suggestions or ideas on how I can get Acrobat Scan to work.

I have a bunch of printed forms to scan and have been testing to see which would give the best PDFs (quality vs. file size). So far I have used PaperPort because I can drag the scan straight to PDF and it converts it on the fly.

Next I thought I would try using Acrobat Scan. However, each time I go to File / Import / Scan it gives me the Alert box: "Unable to find requested device on this machine" even though it does list the name of my scanner.

My scanner is TWAIN compliant and is connected to my Win 98 SE machine via a USB port. I thought it might be that I don't have the required "Photoshop Acquire" plug-in. [Photoshop 5.5 is loaded on my pc.] So I searched the Acrobat 4.0 CD, the PhotoShop plug-in folders on my pc, www.Adobe.com and www.planetpdf.com and could not find the Acquire plug-in that is mentioned on page 188 of the Distiller / Help / Acrobat Guide.

A - Do you think the missing plug-in is my problem?

B - If yes to "A", any ideas where I can get this plug-in?

C - If no to "A", any suggestions or ideas on how I can get Acrobat Scan to work. [Note: I am using a brand new Umax Astra 3400 scanner.]

Thanks to all! Have a lovely day or evening.

Acrobat Distiller 4.05, by comparison, embeds fonts >unless their licensing restriction information specifically prohibits >embedding. I think what Dov was attempting to communicate was that because there is no "mechanisim" in the Type1 specification for a font manufacturer to use to restrict/disallow embedding, it follows that a Type1 font is always embeddable. Nothing there that i can put inside the font to tell Distiller either way. When we create the font as a Type1 font, there is no "way" for us to put any code in the font that would tell Distiller not to embed it. the same is true for other things - I can't put anything in the font that would stop it from downloading the font to a RIP, and i can't put anything in the font that would tell an application that it should not outline that font. You can do these things when you build a font as a TrueType font. Acrobat Distiller 3.0 sometimes "ignored" poorly written "don't embed" flags/code we put inside a font - which really ticked off a few font vendors - they would yell at Adobe, claiming things like, "hey, we put the flags in there, and you are ignoring them" - Adobe (i feel) was pretty clear about what the flag was supposed to look like, and when it was not "quite right", well, they ignored ones that were vague or written "incorrectly" and then went ahead and embeded that TrueType font. Adobe fixed that with Acrobat Distller 4, which (in the world i live in) caused an even bigger up roar from people who had fonts that used to embed and then all of a suddlen, with Acrobat Distiller 4, they did not embed! - and that really ticked off a LOT of Adobe customers, people whom bought Acrobat with hard earned money, people who felt that they had their workflow all reliable, flinging PDF files with fonts embeded all over tarnation, and then suddenly, it didn't embed the fonts that it did embed before. Myself, I could not believe that Apple Charcoal could not be embeded. Even Courier, the font for YEARS as a prepress jockey i did EVERYTHING to keep out of the files, could not be embeded. Adobe, bless their cotton socks, took the heat and did the right thing (or, possibly, from a font vendors perspective, they corrected a wrong thing) Agfa makes both Type1 and TrueType fonts. (as you now hear the other shoe dropping with a loud thud) Me, i am a PDF evenagelist, so i ONLY use Type1, ALWAYS embed, and reject any design or brochure or carton or file to be used in the prepress that my budget buys for the collateral and materials for the product i am involved with. uses ANYTHING but Type1 fonts, and all bets are off in a blind "exchange" with a third party. - I do this so the PDF can contain all the things it needs to print "elsewhere". Now, granted, we have some people in the Kanji world that would like to protect the fonts - they have dongles/hasp/hardware protection schemes that disallow using the font UNLESS that hardware protection device is available. These fonts are very big, have over 14,000 charaters and are expensive. You don't ever want to embed the entire font set, as it would make your PDF over a gigabyte. Just so you understand "why" a font manufacturer might want to use TrueType or some technology to protect fonts, well, it so we can pay for our kids college debts and support my crack cocaine habit. KIDDING! In fact, in certain markets, we are even considering building a special version of the product i manage (Agfa Apogee Create) that will insert "some special code" that when you print it, and the RIP does not have the font, well, the RIP will flush the job (even though the font is embeded in the PDF) be glad you don't have to deal with that! hope this helps the forum understand font protection from a "different perspective".

This creates the PostScript, queries for the location and name of the PDF file to be created, funnels it to the Distiller, deletes the PostScript, and optionally, invokes Acrobat to display the file. It is effectively one keystroke more than the "save as PDF" solution. FYI, we are working with the FrameMaker team within Adobe to finally fix that "save as PDF" function in a future version of FrameMaker such that it effectively calls the print function with the proper special printer already selected. - Dov At 3/8/2001 11:38 AM, rinch@Inficon.com wrote: >Dov, > >I've tried and tried to get people to stop using "Save As PDF".

Standard applications simply request font services from the operating system and they are delivered regardless of location. When Acrobat is installed, it queries ATM as to its font location(s) and builds a list of where to search for MISSING fonts, i.e., fonts that were not in the PostScript job stream. This list of locations does not change afterwards unless you modify it explicitly from within Distiller. You may add, delete, or modify entries in the table and indicate the order in which the locations are searched. In the particular case here, there were two problems. It looks like a Distiller problem in that the Distiller cannot find the font. It's worse than that. Obviously, PageMaker couldn't find the font either or obtain it from the system to put it into the PostScript job stream. That is why Distiller needed to look for it and it misses it probably for the same reason PageMaker and/or the system miss it. At this point, my best guess, given that this is a Macintosh we are talking about, is that the bitmap suitcase font file is there such that the font appears on menus and a semi-suitable screen display is provided, but the actual Type 1 font is missing or damaged. I would delete and then fully reinstall this font and try this again. - Dov Receive the latest PDF News in your Inbox. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9-Mar-2001 16:13:29-GMT,4641;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 JAA29028 for ; Fri, 9 Mar 2001 09:13:28 -0700 (MST) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAB14274; Fri, 9 Mar 2001 10:08:17 -0600 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Fri, 9 Mar 2001 10:00:02 -0600 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA13532; Fri, 9 Mar 2001 10:00:01 -0600 Received: from smtp-relay-1.Adobe.COM (smtp-relay-1.adobe.com [192.150.11.1]) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id JAA13526 for ; Fri, 9 Mar 2001 09:59:59 -0600 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 IAA17696 for ; Fri, 9 Mar 2001 08:03:28 -0800 (PST) Received: from mailsj-v1.corp.adobe.com by inner-relay-2.Adobe.COM (8.8.5) with ESMTP id HAA20990; Fri, 9 Mar 2001 07:59:39 -0800 (PST) Received: from isaacs-base.adobe.com ([153.32.39.110]) by mailsj-v1.corp.adobe.com (Netscape Messaging Server 4.15) with ESMTP id G9XTRN00.DIM; Fri, 9 Mar 2001 07:59:47 -0800 X-Organization: Adobe Systems Incorporated X-URL: X-Location: Office (ISAACS-BASE) Message-Id: <5.0.2.1.2.20010309075702.02454878@mailsj.corp.adobe.com> X-Sender: isaacs@mailsj.corp.adobe.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.0.2 Date: Fri, 09 Mar 2001 07:59:44 -0800 To: Lindsey Thomas Martin From: "Dov Isaacs" Subject: Re: [PDF] Voulez vous embed avec moi?

Also, Acrobat Distiller 4.0 looks for specific licensing restriction information that provides permission to embed the font. If a font does not include this specific permission, Acrobat Distiller 4.0 does not embed the font, even if embedding is not specifically prohibited. Thus, Acrobat Distiller may fail to embed a font that should be embeddable.

I don't know about this. I have a *lot* of differing locations for fonts (as set up on ATM), and these font locations are *not* represented in the font locations dialog box of Distiller 4.0 for Macintosh. I have to add font locations by hand if I want Distiller to search any other folders. Now, certain fonts are found even if they aren't listed in Distiller's font location dialog box. So I suspect that this font location list build by Distiller is an *internal* list, and is not subject to control by any Distiller dialog box. They way to change the locations is change the locations via ATM. Does that make sense?

I prefer to use the FDF approach since you can use it with existing fields, so I'll show it first. Copy the following lines to a text editor and save is with an FDF extension: %FDF-1.2 1 0 obj << /FDF << /Fields [ << /T (combo1)/Q 2 >> ] >> >> endobj trailer << /Root 1 0 R >> %%EOF The value of the /T key is a string that is the name of the field (e.g., combo1). The part that sets right- alignment is the /Q (quadding) key. It's value can be 0 (left), 1 (center), or 2 (right). Since we want right- alignment, use a value 2. More information is in the PDF Reference Manual. Now, open the PDF that contains the combo box and select "File > Import > Form Data" and select the FDF file you saved. The combo box should now be right- aligned. Note that when the field receives the focus, it will switch temporarily to left-aligned, and revert back to right-aligned when the value is commited. You may have to do a Save As, close and then re-open the PDF and re-import the FDF for it to work. If you really want to use pdfmarks, then simply add a /Q key. For much more information on creating form fields with pdfmarks, see the pdfmark primer at http://www.pdflib.com.

Please see http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/20b3e.htm then decide if you have to load anything. Yes, I believe the experts would agree that if you had Acrobat 4.0 you should definitely UNINSTALL it before installing 4.05(4.05c,4.06). Hope this helps.

I've heard it over and over not to use Save As. We've been using "Save As" way back with Exchange/FM 5.5. We're now at Acrobat 4.05/FM 6.0. And "Save As" is still our method, with no problems. Dov does mention that Save As does not work in the general case. So is that the case? Don't use Save As if you experience problems. But if it works great, then it's OK to use? Can someone give us all (mainly me) the lowdown. ivan ===================================================================== Dov, I've tried and tried to get people to stop using "Save As PDF". They will not. Their attitude can be best summed up by a member of our engineering staff who said, "Adobe wouldn't put "Save As PDF" in the software if they did not expect it to work." Quite honestly, people laugh at me when I tell them to print to a PS file to a watched folder, etcetera. "Much too complicated a procedure," they say. I've explained to them that Adobe's advice is to "avoid 'save as PDF' like the plague". These people, engineers mostly, simply expect Save As PDF to work and that's that, end of discussion. I've given up trying to change their mindset.

The earliest version of Acrobat that is supported under Windows 2000 is Acrobat 4.05a. If you can somehow get Acrobat 3.x to install under Windows 2000 and want to interface FrameMaker with it, you should also avoid "save as PDF" like the plague. It just doesn't work in the general case and that includes use with later versions of Acrobat as well. Use of FrameMaker 5.5.6 with Windows 2000 and any PostScript printer or Acrobat does require either Windows 2000 SP1 or getting the updated PostScript driver from the Adobe web site (you need the Adobe Universal Windows PostScript Driver Installer 1.0.2 which updates the PSCRIPT driver under Windows 2000). - Dov At 3/7/2001 09:09 AM, rinch@Inficon.com wrote: >We have a 10 seat concurrent use site license for Adobe FrameMaker.

"Much too >complicated a procedure," what, do these people eat frozen dinners without reading the part about the oven or microwave? well, i guess they do have a point - it is much easier and faster that way. but honestly, the result is much better if you take the time to cook it. - yes, digging thru the several Page setup and Print dialog boxes of applications may be a pain in the behind, and like the auto industry moved from requiring a crank, and a spark advance, well, hey, some of us ludites still think a standard transmission is superior to an automatic. but then, lets both start on a 28 degree incline and see who gets going faster. The idea behind "save as PDF" (from us "prepress pain in the behind people" is that you share a document quickly with someone who does not own the application it was authored in. the Idea of Printing thru PostScipt is to tell the device (maybe a color proofer, maybe Distiller) what you "intend" - how the file should "be". Perhaps one day, like the automatic transmission, these two differences will merge. guess what sports fans - that day is not yet here. sorry so grumpy their richard, but if someone told me "hey, i am not going to waste my time with these seat belts - if Ford didn't think it was okay, the car would not start!" i would say to them - "perhaps they just don't care one way or another if you use them, since they already have your money"... and that is NOT a slam against Adobe. I am just trying to help you build an argument to your customer so they understand that Adobe builds applications for many different levels of users. They are amazing. With Adobes PDF file format, one can make PDF files that can be viewed in a web browser and also contain 2400 ppi copydot scans of film. Perhaps when you try and explain this issue next time, make them understand that "save as PDF" is more or less a quick sketch of the design, almost like a fax of a design, and that printing to PostScript and using Distiller really is more like collecting all the robust graphical elements and images in a form that can be reproduced at the highest quality. I don't bring out a bazzoka to kill a mosquito, but my fly swatter will not stop a tank either. hope this helps, and i am sorry if i seem "abrasive" - maybe i need to cut back on the ThreaFlu...

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?

Ah, but perhaps you haven't used FrameMaker. Save As PDF selects a PostScript driver, makes sure it is colour, adds pdfmarks, writes the file, runs Distiller, and saves the result. This SHOULD be a result every bit as good as doing it by hand (provided only that Distiller's job options are selected). The problem seems to be that Adobe can't reliably hook all this together. Let's see now...they wrote the driver, the application and Distiller. It's almost as if they have different teams out there that don't talk to each other.

The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ Brett, Sorry for the delay, I managed to miss your previous response. I prefer to use the FDF approach since you can use it with existing fields, so I'll show it first. Copy the following lines to a text editor and save is with an FDF extension: %FDF-1.2 1 0 obj << /FDF << /Fields [ << /T (combo1)/Q 2 >> ] >> >> endobj trailer << /Root 1 0 R >> %%EOF The value of the /T key is a string that is the name of the field (e.g., combo1). The part that sets right- alignment is the /Q (quadding) key. It's value can be 0 (left), 1 (center), or 2 (right). Since we want right- alignment, use a value 2. More information is in the PDF Reference Manual. Now, open the PDF that contains the combo box and select "File > Import > Form Data" and select the FDF file you saved. The combo box should now be right- aligned. Note that when the field receives the focus, it will switch temporarily to left-aligned, and revert back to right-aligned when the value is commited. You may have to do a Save As, close and then re-open the PDF and re-import the FDF for it to work. If you really want to use pdfmarks, then simply add a /Q key. For much more information on creating form fields with pdfmarks, see the pdfmark primer at http://www.pdflib.com.

We currently create Autocad electrical drawings that consist of multiple sheets, up to 6 or more sheets, in one drawing file. When one opens this DWG file all 6 sheets would be visible, arranged starting with sheet 1, bottom to top, left to right, (don't have a clue why). Within Acad 14 we have a Lisp program that allows us to send to the printer all the sheets without having to individually select them and print them one at a time. This is a great time-saving feature when printing multiple sheet drawings. Now to the problem that brings me to this illustrious PDF list. When we try to send these sheets to the PDFwriter in lieu of the printer, (Creating a total documentation package for the Operations and Maintenance manual) the lisp program behaves very predictably and does exactly the same thing it does when sending the output to the printer. One sheet right after the other. Each overwriting the previously created PDF file. The process asks for the filename initially, based on the default filename of the original ACAD drawing. For example, if we have a drawing (ELECTRICAL.DWG) with 5 sheets. We run the Lisp program to print the sheets, after setting the default printer as the PDFwriter. The first output asks for a filename for the resulting PDF. After this point, the output from the Lisp program simply overwrites the original PDF with each successive sheet. The PDF created (ELECTRICAL.PDF) would, if one opened and viewed it, be sheet 5 of the drawing. I explained all that to ask this question. Does anyone know of a utility that would allow us to basically output multiple sheets to the PDFwriter but allow us to name, or rename, each sheet, ELECTRICAL_1.PDF and so forth? I do appreciate, those of you who stuck with me here, your patience after reading this lengthy email and would be most appreciative of any help here.

We can guess and make theories. A few years ago Adobe set up a project to update PageMaker into a state of the art competition for QuarkXPress. This project failed in its task of updating PageMaker, and instead produced a new product (InDesign). I have heard that Adobe have been advertising for people to work in PageMaker development. That suggests that perhaps some smaller scale updating is planned. The market will be the guide, I'm sure - so long as people continue to buy PageMaker, Adobe will spend on its development. Of most importance for the product to survive would be an update so PageMaker works reliably in Windows 2000. I suspect the people using PageMaker don't want major change and don't want lots of new tools. What they would like is updated and improved filters, for PDF import/export for instance. Or indeed for XPress import. Clearly the knowledge of Quark's (secret) format exists within Adobe, since InDesign can do it.

I need to find a plug-in that I can get under the = hood at and programmatically do all the merging and trimming.

any ideas?

"... convert TrueType fonts to Type 1 format." "You can preview overprints on screen or on a printout" Additionally, I wonder if Distiller will at some point give me the ability to limit the kinds of colors I include in a PDF file... Specifically, as in the cancel if font embedding fails feature, I wonder if a "cancel if non-CMYK colors are used" feature could be added somewhere. If this is not the appropriate place for wish list items, maybe someone could point me in the right direction. Thanks, --bd-- Bob Dawson Prepress Director TL Enterprises, Inc.

You don't mention any specifics (Platforms/OS/Etc.) but, it sounds as if you have some custom code to print these files. Have you tried to integrate that code with the export to PS/EPS option in ACAD? We also have several conversion options for our two CAD packages. We ALWAYS export first to PS/EPS and then run thru distiller. Part of your problem may be that your "Lisp" program doesn't know how to deal with the multiple page files. You may have to tweak your code to provide the functionality you mention. I know there are members of this list lurking out there who write custom plug-ins for Acrobat, or you can do it internally. ========================================================================= After this point, the output from the Lisp program simply overwrites the original PDF with each successive sheet. The PDF created (ELECTRICAL.PDF) would, if one opened and viewed it, be sheet 5 of the drawing. Does anyone know of a utility that would allow us to basically output multiple sheets to the PDFwriter but allow us to name, or rename, each sheet, ELECTRICAL_1.PDF and so forth?

(1) This really isn't new. Since originally supporting TrueType fonts, Acrobat has always been able to produce PostScript output that provided Type 1 substitutes for TrueType fonts for printers that didn't support Type 42 (i.e., Native TrueType support in Adobe PostScript) fonts and it has done so automatically! The same has been true for the EPS export function; the option for conversion has been there. (2) If your RIP supports Type 42 fonts (Native TrueType in Adobe PostScript) as do all Adobe PostScript 3-based RIPs, most of the later generations of Adobe PostScript Level 2-based RIPs, and even most PostScript emulations, you've got to be nuts to force conversion of TrueType to Type 1. Why? Because the "converted" font loses all of its hinting. The results of the conversion are unhinted outlines that are not particularly high quality at smaller point sizes and/or resolutions. Contrary to popular myth, the Adobe PostScript-based RIPs with Type 42 support do NOT convert the fonts to Type 1, but rather, have real TrueType font realization. Thus, unless you have an older RIP without Type 42 support, keep those fonts as TrueType! - Dov E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13-Mar-2001 17:32:14-GMT,3852;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 KAA00137 for ; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 10:32:13 -0700 (MST) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f2DHV3631802; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 11:31:03 -0600 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Tue, 13 Mar 2001 11:22:44 -0600 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) id f2DHMge31283; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 11:22:42 -0600 Received: from mail.austin.rr.com (sm1.texas.rr.com [24.93.35.54]) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f2DHMfZ31277 for ; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 11:22:41 -0600 Received: from mail pickup service by mail.austin.rr.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 11:13:03 -0600 Received: from sm3.texas.rr.com ([24.93.35.210]) by mail.austin.rr.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.5.1877.537.53); Tue, 6 Mar 2001 12:14:12 -0600 Received: from everglades.binc.net (everglades.binc.net [208.155.48.8]) by sm3.texas.rr.com (8.11.0/8.11.1) with ESMTP id f26I3KU24676 for ; Tue, 6 Mar 2001 12:03:20 -0600 Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA06270; Tue, 6 Mar 2001 12:07:22 -0600 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Tue, 6 Mar 2001 12:00:57 -0600 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA05999; Tue, 6 Mar 2001 12:00:56 -0600 Received: from fsfspm22.edwards.af.mil ([129.198.201.162]) by everglades.binc.net (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA05995 for ; Tue, 6 Mar 2001 12:00:54 -0600 Received: by fsfspm22.edwards.af.mil with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id ; Tue, 6 Mar 2001 10:00:43 -0800 Message-ID: <4B66C77EEAC7D4118A32009027D636E815132E@fsfspm05.edwards.af.mil> From: Emch Sandra H Contr 416 FLTS/DOEZ To: "'pdf@lists.pdfzone.com'" Subject: [PDF] PDF Creation error message Date: Tue, 6 Mar 2001 10:00:09 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" X-LISTINFO: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/lists.html X-ARCHIVE: http://www.pdfzone.com/resources/listarchives.html X-CONTACT: mailto:webmaster@pdfzone.com 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 __________________________________________________________________ The PDF list is a service provided by PDFzone.com | http://www.pdfzone.com __________________________________________________________________ Ok, having a problem with a different file.

Note: all pdf's in this CD set tie into a master table of contents. We're working from the requirement that the end user would perform a search from one of the CD's in the set, rather than copying the contents of all CD's along w/ the index file to a network or using a CD jukebox w/ smart storage. Does anyone know of a technique using Catalog (preferable), a plug-in or 3rd party software that would allow for the creation of a searchable index across CD's? Your help, comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Just different format. 6) Besides compatibility, Type 1 does not hold any advantage over TrueType, and the inverse isn't true either. 7) Type 42 is TrueType, as-is, just wrapped in postscript. 8) A PDF can contain either Type 1, Type 3, or Type 42 fonts.

If the font is missing in the postscript file and it's Type 1, Distiller can insert it (provided it can find the font in its font folders). But if it's missing and it's Type 42, it can't. 11) If you convert to outlines in, say, Illustrator, you'd lose all the hinting and thus get the equivalent of a Type 3 font. (or will it use the hinting combined with the output resolution preference to create the outlines with hints applied??) 12) Truetype fonts never have associated Bitmap fonts that say "my outline is this TrueType font". But Type 1 fonts do have them, and in fact need them in order to be recognized by the operating system and appear in the applications' font menu (true for mac and windows?). Maybe some or many are wrong... And what's the CCF then? I've read that somewhere.. "compact font format"... best regards, -- Roberto Michelena EOS S.A.

I have a specialised graphics program that will output a printed page (in color and b&w). But the program does not have OLE or any way of creating an export file for powerpoint and MSWord use. I'm looking for a shareware or low cost utility or driver that will allow me to create a TIF file or GIF file etc in place of the printed page. I can achieve this by printing to PDFWriiter and then using Photoshop to turn the PDF file into a TIF or other file. However this is timeconsuming and if possible I would like a solution that my colleagues could use (they don't have Acrobat or Photoshop etc). I would welcome any suggestions.

Type 3 fonts describe their characters using the PostScript language. The characters can be drawn using paths, bitmaps, or even other characters from other fonts. The use of compression on bitmap data is up to the font designer. It may or may not be used. Type 3 fonts are not that common in most Macintosh or Windows OS's. See below for treatment of TrueType to Type 3. > 2) Type 1 replaced Type 3 and besides being more compact, has hinting. Type 1 has been around since the first PS print device. It used to be a "secret" standard known only inside Adobe. When Apple developed its TrueType fonts, Adobe was forced to let the cat out of the bag and publish the Type 1 spec. Type 1 fonts can contain hinting (most high quality fonts do). The hinting helps the Type 1 rasterizer adjust the character outlines to the underlying pixel grid at small point sizes and/or low resolutions. > 3) Hinting is only used on small sizes/resolutions, ie whenever a font > will image to less than 20 device pixels in height or so? or are there > uses at higher size/res? Hinting can also be used on larger characters that have fine/small serifs. The serifs also need to be hinted as they are usually much smaller in proportion to the rest of the character. Also the hinting can be used to help with round characters. > 4) Type 2? what was that? never heard of it. In older (pre LanguageLevel 3) interpreters, there was no Type 2. In LanguageLevel 3 interpreters, Type 2 designates a CFF or Compact Font Format font. > 5) TrueType is a font outline format very similar to Type 1 in its > abilities, including hinting and being compact. Just different format. Different curves - quadratic B-splines vs. cubic Beziers, different ways of expressing hints, different char space coordinate system for the character outlines, etc.. > 6) Besides compatibility, Type 1 does not hold any advantage over > TrueType, and the inverse isn't true either. One advantage of TrueType fonts, is they can be used both for display and and printing and are contained in only one file. Think of all the font utilities and preflight programs that exist just to manage bitmap suitcases and PS Type 1 files. The OpenType font format is a step in the right direction as far as I'm concerned. It can package up both TrueType on PS Type 1 fonts in one file. Both the Mac 8.6+ and Windows 2K have T1 and TrueType rasterizers built in to the OS to handle OT fonts. > 7) Type 42 is TrueType, as-is, just wrapped in postscript. Pretty much. A driver that builds a Type 42 font does not have to include all of the tables in a TrueType font. It can include only the ones needed by the TT rasterizer on the PS interpreter. > 8) A PDF can contain either Type 1, Type 3, or Type 42 fonts. (any > others?) None defined in the PDF spec. > 9) The postscript printer driver (AdobePS or LaserWriter) is the one that > converts TrueType to Type 42 or to Type 3 depending on the PPD selected? Yes, if the PPD indicates the PS device supports TrueType fonts, it can send a Type 42 font. The Apple LW drivers includes a "fat" version of the TT font. It has both a Type 42 version and an unhinted Type 1 font. If the PS file is sent to a device that does not have a TT rasterizer then an unhinted Type 1 version of the TT font is used. On Windows systems, you can set the printer properties to modify the way the driver sends fonts. It is generally a lot more complicated and varies from Win 95-NT-2K. The driver can do the following when it encounters a TT font for a PS device. 1. Substitute the TT font for an equivalent PS font. 2. Convert the TT font to a Type 42 PS font. 3. Convert the TT font to an unhinted Type 1 font. Note: This setting can also generate Type 3 bitmaps if the device pixel threshold is large enough. 4. Convert the TT font to a bitmap Type 3 font. > 10) And then Distiller just puts them in the PDF in the format they > arrive.

True, the TT font is self contained. One of the advantages to that format. Type 1 fonts on the Mac need a suitcase of screen bitmaps. The suitcase also contains metric and other information useful to the Font manager in the Mac OS. For Type 1 fonts to be used in Windows 95/98/ME/NT 4.0 you need ATM. It installs the .pfb (PS Type 1 font program) and .pfm (Printer font metrics) in the PSFONTS directory. It also makes some registry settings to keep track of all the pieces. > Maybe some or many are wrong... > And what's the CCF then? I've read that somewhere.. "compact font > format"... CFF compact font format. From the PLRM: "CFF is a representation of one or more fonts based on the Type 1 charstring format. It retains full fidelity to the original fonts, while achieving significant space reduction due to a compact binary representation and sharing of data that is common to multiple fonts." -- Todd Donahue 5 South Software E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13-Mar-2001 22:19:07-GMT,3598;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 PAA08646 for ; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 15:19:06 -0700 (MST) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f2DMISS12678; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 16:18:28 -0600 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Tue, 13 Mar 2001 16:10:20 -0600 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) id f2DMAJE12284; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 16:10:19 -0600 Received: from mailhost.wintrack.net (mailhost.wintrack.net [209.211.240.14]) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f2DMAAZ12273 for ; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 16:10:11 -0600 Received: from rbrannan ([172.22.9.228]) by mailhost.wintrack.net (8.9.3/8.9.0) with SMTP id OAA12254 for ; Tue, 13 Mar 2001 14:47:14 -0800 Message-ID: <00e501c0ac0a$516aad50$e40916ac@firstam.com> From: "Rob Brannan" To: References: <000001c0abe5$e74827a0$510b83c1@gateway.quite.com> <003e01c0ac05$58913860$0100a8c0@p100ats> Subject: Re: [PDF] Printing to a TIF file Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2001 14:09:07 -0800 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.50.4133.2400 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.50.4133.2400 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 __________________________________________________________________ pdf to tiff converter http://www.logipole.com/indexe.html look at the Konvertor program ....works fine.

Older - well the published spec has been out for longer, yes. Definitely still in use, although usually when constructing derivative fonts, like outlines or shadows. There are also some things that you can do in Type 3 that cannot be done in T1 or TT - different colors or shades of gray within a single character, or bitmaps for instance. Obviously most of those are for special effect fonts. Unhinted - almost always, although it's theoretically possible to build hinting into them. T3 is not a good choice for everyday fonts. >2) Type 1 replaced Type 3 and besides being more compact, has hinting. Pretty much correct. >3) Hinting is only used on small sizes/resolutions, ie whenever a font >will image to less than 20 device pixels in height or so? or are there >uses at higher size/res? Correct, but the break point is closer to 300 pixels than 20. >4) Type 2? what was that? never heard of it. These days it's a short-hand way of referring to Type 1 fonts with Type 2 CharStrings, otherwise known as Compact Font Format or CFF. Effectively introduced with PDF 1.2 (or 1.3? I really shouldn't try to answer this kind of question after 23:00). There used to be a real Type 2, but it was never widely used and I don't think the spec was ever published. Ancient history! >5) TrueType is a font outline format very similar to Type 1 in its >abilities, including hinting and being compact. Just different format. Pretty much correct. Big differences between the two: * For T1 the font is dumb, all of the intelligence is in the renderer. For TT the intelligence is in the font. * TT supports diagonal hints as well as the vertical and horizontal ones used in T1. This means that good hinting is very complex for TT. Taken together this means that cheap TT fonts tend to be significantly less aesthetically pleasing than "equivalent quality" T1 fonts. Well built fonts of the two formats will produce equivalent quality to each other on the same output device. TT (and OpenType) also have the mechanisms to include embedding controls in the font itself, so a tool making PDF may refuse to embed some of those fonts. Of course, those embedded controls are only enacting what's in your font licence agreement anyway ... >6) Besides compatibility, Type 1 does not hold any advantage over >TrueType, and the inverse isn't true either.

Lots - including CFF and multiple masters (a variant of T1). You haven't even touched on the CID font types usually used for double-byte fonts (but used by InDesign for almost everything). >9) The postscript printer driver (AdobePS or LaserWriter) is the one that >converts TrueType to Type 42 or to Type 3 depending on the PPD selected?

CID fonts are designed to organise large character collections, originally for Far Eastern fonts, but becoming important because of Unicode issues. InDesign may use them even for western fonts. You may see references to Type1C; this is just a type 1 font translated to a compressed format, without loss of information. > 9) The postscript printer driver (AdobePS or LaserWriter) is > the one that > converts TrueType to Type 42 or to Type 3 depending on the > PPD selected?

Well, if it's type 42 it can't be missing! A missing font has only a name, and Distiller has nothing else for it. But, yes, if it is TrueType only, Distiller won't find it. > 11) If you convert to outlines in, say, Illustrator, you'd > lose all the > hinting and thus get the equivalent of a Type 3 font.

CFF, I seem to recall, is what is also known as type1C. You'll only find it inside a PDF; translation to and from type 1 is automatic.

We can guess and make theories. A few years ago Adobe set up a project to update PageMaker into a state of the art competition for QuarkXPress. This project failed in its task of updating PageMaker, and instead produced a new product (InDesign). I have heard that Adobe have been advertising for people to work in PageMaker development. That suggests that perhaps some smaller scale updating is planned. The market will be the guide, I'm sure - so long as people continue to buy PageMaker, Adobe will spend on its development. Of most importance for the product to survive would be an update so PageMaker works reliably in Windows 2000. I suspect the people using PageMaker don't want major change and don't want lots of new tools. What they would like is updated and improved filters, for PDF import/export for instance. Or indeed for XPress import. Clearly the knowledge of Quark's (secret) format exists within Adobe, since InDesign can do it.

It certainly is in use: most TeX DVI drivers produce PostScript that encodes fonts in Type 3 form. That is a powerful mechanism, since it gives an arbitrary PostScript program to be executed for each character; the program ultimately returns a bitmap for the character to the font cache. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Nelson H.

No - the reference to the font includes all of the information required to construct the instance from the MM font itself, and the embedded font (if there is one) may well also be pre-tuned for that instance. Of course, if you use more than one instance in a document you probably want only one copy of the MM itself embedded ... >So then a PDF rip has to also understand Multiple Master? In theory, yes, although I seem to remember some discussions that implied that Distiller really does construct instances and embed those rather than actually embedding the open MM font. It's been a while since I got into the deep and dirty stuff on that.

Same thing: a Multiple Master font or instance *is* a standard type 1 font, so far as PostScript is concerned. That's why they can print to level 1 printers, which have no concept of multiple master. They use only standard PostScript features.

(Distilling the ps files individually doesn't give rotated output) Greetings Denis E-Business Communication Association - Learn More About Membership http://www.ebusinessca.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 14-Mar-2001 15:29:31-GMT,2881;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 IAA29465 for ; Wed, 14 Mar 2001 08:29:30 -0700 (MST) Received: from localhost (majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f2EFRMG13450; Wed, 14 Mar 2001 09:27:22 -0600 Received: by everglades.binc.net (bulk_mailer v1.8); Wed, 14 Mar 2001 09:15:36 -0600 Received: (from majordom@localhost) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) id f2EFFZs12995; Wed, 14 Mar 2001 09:15:35 -0600 Received: from smtp.digapp.com (host75.redax.com [63.86.139.75] (may be forged)) by etrn.binc.net (8.11.2/8.11.2) with ESMTP id f2EFFXZ12991 for ; Wed, 14 Mar 2001 09:15:33 -0600 Received: from [207.29.200.50] (207.29.200.50) by smtp.digapp.com with ESMTP (Eudora Internet Mail Server 3.0.2); Wed, 14 Mar 2001 10:12:57 -0500 Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Sender: leonardr@63.86.139.75 Message-Id: In-Reply-To: <3AAF7C6C.58418CD4@postle.net> References: <3AAF7C6C.58418CD4@postle.net> Date: Wed, 14 Mar 2001 10:16:13 -0500 To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com From: Leonard Rosenthol Subject: Re: [PDF] Increasingly desperate!

The simple answer is that transparency as exemplified in Illustrator 9, Photoshop 6, PDF 1.4, and Acrobat 5 gets totally "flattened" at the time that PostScript or EPS is generated for purposes of printing or placement into other documents. (Similarly, the next version of InDesign will flatten its non-opaque objects when generating PostScript or EPS ... exported PDF will keep such objects without flattening!) "Flattening" refers to the process by which overlapping, non-opaque objects are remapped into opaque objects that render with the same look as the original non-opaque objects. This process is very complex, especially when dealing with overlapping non-opaque vector artwork and text. Often, text must be flattened into vector artwork or images. Likewise, vector artwork may need to be flattened into images. There are speed/quality settings in both Illustrator (document properties) and in Acrobat 5 (printer advanced functions and save as EPS/PostScript settings) that allow a user to choose a range of settings for flattening. These range from higher speed/lower quality/more image to lower speed/higher quality/more vector. Regardless, the PostScript or EPS that results from flattening should be regarded as fairly resolution-dependent and targeted for a particular device at a defined resolution. Graphic artists would be well-advised to be very careful in using transparency with text, especially with smaller point sizes, since flattening of text changes text into vector artwork or perhaps images, losing all "hinting" for rendering. Likewise, EPS generated from artwork with transparency, especially if any images are involved, should be scaled with care! Contrary to Todd Wellman's speculation, there is no RIP upgrade necessary to image the flattened PostScript generated by these programs. PostScript Level 2 and PostScript 3 devices will handle such PostScript quite well. There is no "secret" PostScript 4 output capability in Acrobat 5. Sorry to ruin your fun, but there is no conspiracy here! - Dov At 3/14/2001 07:58 AM, mittelhaus@t-online.de wrote: >Aandi Inston schrieb: > >> To me, the whole concept of RIPs consuming PDF is rather >> suspect, because people don't like updating their RIP >> software. > >Good argument Aandi.

I would need to build a net configuration for my PDF work. So, I will explain what I need briefly. I have QuarkXPress documents on one G4. I have Distiller on one PowerMac. Both, Ethernet 100 base T connected. Normally, I must print to file and copy the result PostScript file via net, until Distiller's controled folder on my PowerMac. Is it possible configure something on my Distiller's PowerMac to see it via Ethernet as if it were a PostScript Printer? Or, it is possible to print anyway to a remote Mac folder from Adobe PostScript Printer Driver? Of course, WITHOUT use ColorCentral or so. I am seeking for the simplest solution for 2 Mac user.

There should be ways to do this without spending thousands or delving into programming with PDF libraries. The need is as follows: -There is a graphic page in PDF; it has, in a certain place, a "slug" such as the ones that architects put in the corner of their plans; meaning a square, with divisions inside it for writing data such as designer, job name, customer, date, etc. -That "slug" is made by pasting a PDF object with Pitstop, so it can have form fields if needed. -The "slug" is originally empty. The data that will go into it resides in a database (MySQL), and thus it can be exported via php to an XML file or any other kind of text file of an easy structure (is FDF a text file? at least now there is XFDF that probably is). -I need to fill the data into the "slug" in a way that it will render when printed to a color proofer, via a rip. So the vague ideas I've been having about how to do it are as follows: a) using a form field: a1) script Acrobat 5 to fill it a2) I believe having read about some code to access PDFs from php and populate forms a3) FDFMerge is not an option, too expensive (I need this self-developed or under $200) a4) And will a rip (harlequin, etc.) render the field? probably not. b) not using a form field: b1) Having my empty "slug" actually contain placeholder texts, such as "" in a certain length and in a monospaced font. Then parse the PDF file for that string and replace by the suitable data. This would probably need the PDF to "not compress text and lineart" and also limits me to a monospaced font. But if there's no choice... b2) Using postscript code to generate the complete filled slug object in a separate PDF file, and then some scripting to copy it and paste over the existing one in an opaque way. As long as there is some way to determine the coordinates of the existing one... No more ideas for the moment. Anyone, please? thanks in advance, -- Roberto Michelena EOS S.A.

No reason to limit you to a monospaced font, but yes, if you can control the source document so that it doesn't "compress text and lineart", then this should work fine. >b2) Using postscript code to generate the complete filled slug object in >a separate PDF file, and then some scripting to copy it and paste over >the existing one in an opaque way.

Assuming your PDF->PS converter is smart enough to export field values/appearances (Ghostscript should work) it will then give you a "flattened" PDF.

Tried bookmark, properties, action menu item, but it just opens the print dialog box, doesn't allow me to drill down into the options such as print a certain page.

Correct. >But does the PDF spec itself allow for some elements to be compressed and >some not? or in the spec it's also a "all or none" approach? Yes, you can have some that are compressed and some that are not. The "contents" of a PDF page are described in a PDF file by a series (array) of "Content Streams". These streams are processed by the PDF viewer in order (having multiple streams is one way to achieve "watermarks" or "overlays"). You may have some streams that are compressed and some that are not, but compression is at the "stream level". >Say you have a PDF produced by Distiller with compressed elements, and >another with uncompressed ones. Then via PitStop, copy some text elements >from the uncompressed PDF, paste them in the compressed PDF. Then save. Depends on whether PitStop creates a separate stream, and whether they tell Acrobat that they want the stream compressed. >Will the originally-uncompressed text boxes become compressed when this >is done, or will they remain uncompressed amid a compressed PDF document? It's up to PitStop, or any other tools that manipulates PDF... >If they remain uncompressed, then I could parse (search and replace) them >without having any pdf understanding, just with a bytestream >replacement... even with a disk editor. > Assuming that you used relatively unique strings to search on, then yes. There are commercial products out there (that shall remain nameless ;) that actually use this technique to do "PDF manipulation". Also consider that using this methods means that you can't apply any security settings to the document, unless you get a 3rd party application to do "post-processing" after your search/replace.

In Adobe Illustrator, i went under the Window menu, and selected "Show Swatches" and in the pop up dialog, selected "New Swatch..." and in that dialog; Swatch Name: "PANTONE Reflex Blue CV" Color Type: Spot Color Color Mode: CMYK C = 100 M = 72 Y = 0 K = 6 - I choose to simulate PANTONE Reflex Blue CV as 100 cyan, 72 magenta, 0 yellow and 6 black because thats the way it is simulated by Quark - also, i am using the "Quark" naming convention...all caps for "PANTONE" then normal "Reflex Blue" and that ever so helpful "CV" (Coated Version) I made a circle and colored it with a spot color of PANTONE Reflex Blue CV and made it "transparent" (0%) and then placed it over a rectangle which has been colored process color of 0 cyan, 100 magenta, 100 yellow and 0 black... [1] so, i did that and built and example of it....which is silly, as the spot color is "gone" so, right below it, [2] - i also made one right below it with the circle at 25% transparency.... and then, right below THAT, [3] - i also made the circle with NO transparency setting - but used a 25% tint of the PANTONE Reflex Blue CV, and set it to "overprint fill" - i did this to attempt and demonstrate that "pros" who want the effect can "work-around" to get the effect they want if they use their brains. (okay, you would have to use pathfinder and reduce the process color by 25% in each color, but you all knew that anyway...) - i also tried to build something "similar" within Quark XPress, using Quark objects only, and then "printed" this file from Quark, with 1,2 and 3 placed in it and with separations (making plates) on and separations off (Composite). S0, now it got interesting (although all in all the examples, using this idea of a completely transparent spot color circle turned out to be pretty boring...) http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/00_peter9.pdf http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/01_peter8_Apperance_Fla.pdf http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/02_peter8_Paths_Discard.pdf http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/04_peter.aiComposite.pdf http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/05_peter.qxdSeps.pdf http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/06_peter.qxdComposite.pdf now, if we do things "right" (whatever THAT means with Illustrator 9).. [1] we should only see a red rectangle [2] we should see a 25% spot color with a red rectangle showing through it - 25% Pantone Reflex Blue CV, 75% magenta, 75% yellow [3] we should see a 25% spot color with a red rectangle showing through it (but the part where the two objects overlap should be "darker" than [2] with 25% Pantone Reflex Blue CV, 100% magenta, 100% yellow. http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/00_peter9.pdf ------------------------------------------ Saving as Eps and selecting Illustrator 9 is clearly the "best option" as far as i can tell. You get the result you were expecting. Okay, if you distill this directly, the preview does not look right, and using PitStop Professional 4.6 will not report the overlapping objects correctly, but Adobe InProduction and our Agfa PDF RIP will RIP the file exactly as i expected/designed/intended it... http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/01_peter8_Apperance_Fla.pdf ------------------------------------------ Saving as Illustrator 8 and selecting "Preserve Appearance, Flatten Transparency" indeed does flatten and convert the spots to process. Bummer, but thats what it said it would do - their is all sorts of "dnager will robinson" dialog boxes that pop up and tell you (more or less) hey stupid, this won't work! http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/02_peter8_Paths_Discard.pdf ------------------------------------------ Saving as Illustrator 8 and select "Preserve Paths, Discard transparency, well, all the objects that used transparency certainly appear quite different - The 0% Pantone circle becomes solid, as does the one with a transparency setting of 25% - but the spot color is retained, which means i could go into PitStop and fix the objects... http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/04_peter.aiComposite.pdf ------------------------------------------ Printing as PostScript and Normalizing made a big fat mess. don't do that. http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/05_peter.qxdSeps.pdf ------------------------------------------ Here you can see how Quark separates it (okay, you need Adobe InProduction to see the plates since i "re-combined" the PDF files into a single page PDF file using Agfa Apogee Create - http://www.agfa.com/create/ - for thoes who wanted to see the seps as pages ; http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/05_peter.qxdDistSeps.pdf also, if you want to see how Creos "Intense" software group composites this using DeviceN... http://www.jahn.org/new_2_9/05_peter.Seps2Comp.pdf this approach still does not "display" in Acrobat 4 correctly, although it does display as it will print in Adobe Acrobat InProduction...and it does RIp properly... http://www.jahn.org/06_peter.qxdComposite.pdf ------------------------------------------ of course, you can get the file to display and print properly printing composite (except for the Quark spot color circle set to 0% - it shows up on screen in Quark and in PDF as a white object - although that disappears in Adobe InProduction, this offered me my first "suprise". oh, and guess what - you can make a PDF/X of all of the above (with the exception of the CreoScitex file, as it uses DeviceN which is not allowed in PDF/X) here it is! http://www.jahn.org/06_peter.qxdComposite_x.pdf interesting note - when you examined the files in Adobe InProduction, you can see how the files will separate - for example, the middle [2} where i use the spot color over the process color with the spot color set at a transparency of 25%, the process color "steps back" 25%, so the "mix" or tint build is 25% Pantone Reflex Blue CV, 75% magenta, 75% yellow - where as the overprint is 25% Pantone Reflex Blue CV, 100% magenta, 100% yellow. another thing i had not thought about. well, that was fun. well, i think i will retire to a game of "toss the thread through the eye of a needle at 20 paces" - that has to be easier than this. have fun!

It could be that this has something to do with the licence Adobe got from Verity, which does not allow them to use it in a web server environment. So, what you would have to do, is looking around for a web server based indexer which supports PDF. There is a list on PlanetPDF, although I don't know for sure how up-to-date and how complete it is. It is a good idea to note that indexers in the web environment must be adjusted to their server, and can therefore not really be provided by Adobe. Hope, this can help.

It's working fine, and I'm doing the method with the scanned page showing, and the hidden, OCR-converted text layer underneath. But now I gather it would be useful for users to SEE the articles first on-line as HTML pdf files, before deciding if they want to download entire pdf articles. I know I can create both HTML and pdf versions in the Acrobat Capture process. My question is, is there any product out there that would let me take the already finished, converted pdf files and make HTML pdf versions out of them, or do I have to go back and repeat the Capture/conversion process? Pitstop Professional perhaps? (I already have Enfocus PowerUp and WebPerfect) Many thanks.

You'll need to clean it all up in your HTML editor, which is not what that software was designed for. Essentially, you'll have lost the chance to optimize the conversion for HTML output, including text cleanup, positioning adjustment, handling of images, etc, etc, etc, etc. You'd just be setting yourself up for a big headache when it comes to touching up the page layouts. FAR better to re-process your ACD files, using Quickfix for the text-correction and Reviewer for layout. And if you have to re-run the OCR... that's not so bad. In addition to the HTML output, you'll also have done the work necessary for delivery of PDF/Formatted Text and Graphics files instead of PDF/Searchable Image - and they are VERY cool (and VERY small, if you do a good job).

But it is as I feared; lots of repeat work to do. We're converting journal articles from as old as the year 1903, and there are LOTS of corrections to make with Quickfix in the OCR conversion. We're about halfway through the job, and it sounds like we'll need to go back and redo the first half. Many thanks!

It could be that this has something to do with the licence Adobe got from Verity, which does not allow them to use it in a web server environment. So, what you would have to do, is looking around for a web server based indexer which supports PDF. There is a list on PlanetPDF, although I don't know for sure how up-to-date and how complete it is. It is a good idea to note that indexers in the web environment must be adjusted to their server, and can therefore not really be provided by Adobe. Hope, this can help.

That would be remarkable, at least for a large index - the reason these indexes are not implemented for FTP or HTTP is that they require high speed random access, which neither will give.

We are currently using this and it work great. Search Term - Hit highlighting of PDFs and/or HTML files. Very fast. Works with PDF+IT files scanned from hard copy as well. There was some small learning curve, setup, and configuration, but now we have it the way we want it. Catalog is not used to create the indexes though. I suggest contacting Mr. Jim Rile for more info. He is extremely cooperative and always available. Not sure about the web site troubles there... As far as the cost... Well, what is searching PDFs worth to you and your organization ??? i think you have to put that in perspective to what PDFwebsearch is doing for you. I look at other engines... IIS plus Ifilter, and a few others. Though these are marketed on Adobe and Planet, I did not find them to compare to the power of PDFwebsearch. In a nutshell, PDFwebsearch is as close to searching PDFs using the Adobe Search engine on the CD-ROMs with Catalog. Enjoy.

That would be remarkable...] What will be happening with FTP mapping is that the whole of every index file will be downloaded, and the local copy used instead. This will quickly become unviable as the collection size increases. And, really, it's just pointless. The web works so much better with server-hosted searching - it is more flexible and can index multiple content-types.

You need FrameMaker, just as you would need an application that can read the original file to convert any file. There is no choice with FrameMaker files - FrameMaker is the only thing that reads it. But I'm puzzled - why did the marketing group send it to you - they obviously have FrameMaker themselves. FrameMaker (at least, recent versions of it) includes Distiller and can make PDF files directly.

We had built an autorun with this command: [autorun] run=start.pdf We tried having the run=acrobatreader.exe then launching start.pdf (our splash screen for the cdrom). This worked great, until we reached a file that contained a form field. The problem was the form field was looking for Times Roman but, unless the reader was running off the hard drive, it didn't recognize that font. My question is 3 fold: 1. is there a better way to create forms that work cross platform (mac and pc)? 2. if not, how can I specify that the autolaunch launch a pdf file while using the reader that is resident on the computers harddrive? Or, 3. our latest effort was to have the autorun launch a flash splash screen (that was saved as an .exe file) and then when we click on the "enter" button, it launches our first pdf file. Again, using the reader that lives on the computer (not on the cdrom). The glitch was we don't know how to create a button in flash that opens another file, like a pdf file.

If the original PDF file had the fonts embedded, this should NOT be a problem, even if some of the styles were faux (i.e. fake embolding via transformation or double strikes or fake italization via obliqueing). If the fonts were NOT embedded in the PDF file, you might try text touch-up in Acrobat or Enfocus PitStop to force embedding of the font in the PDF file first before exporting EPS. The font encoding thing is irrelevant. You will not get "hoof and mouth" from having a "Windows encoding" in a file viewed or manipulated on a Macintosh.

Does anyone know if this is correct? Does anyone know how the upgrade will work? I.e., is it like Capture 3.0 where you can simply use a prior valid license number when installing, or is it like some other programs that require that the previous version be installed on the same machine? I ask because I strongly prefer the first method, since it allows you to periodically reconfigure your machine (which I am wont to do) without installing a prior version of software just so you can install your upgrade. Finally, I am anxious to try it out because of the 128-bit encryption. Have any beta testers had experience with this? Should I wait for 5.01?

The Security says that copying is Allowed. When I select the Text select tool, nothing happens. I can easily select text in another document created with distiller. I am very unfamiliar with trouble shooting Adobe, since it usually works so nicely! and really don't know where to look for help with this.

The volume doesn't justify any dedicated image database system. We have an HP Scan Jet 6350 scanner with HP Precision Scan Pro 2.0 software. When scanning directly into Acrobat, the output PDF file sizes are outrageous, something on the order of 5 MG per page. We also have Pixel Translations ISIS QuickScan software which we use for an unrelated project. If I first scan into Group 4 TIFF files at 300 DPI and import them into Acrobat, the files sizes are far more reasonable. The problem is that we want staff to be able to scan documents themselves, and having to go the TIFF file to PDF file route won't work for our staff. Is there some other TWAIN based scanning software that we can use for scanning directly into Acrobat?

I kinda like to scan B/W text docs for archive into already created pdf's via the plug in. Out of laziness I guess. Saves a few steps in the workflow, .... and to train all the users in this here office (insurance) on twain scan tweaks and distiller settings ..... um... well lets just say I value some resemblence of sanity...? I have been in denial about the file sizes - though they aren't "terribly outrageous". Is there some additional resources somewhere about this twain to tif???? to distiller to pdf workflow/process, or am I on a trial and error mission? We work with Office docs (Word97/Excel97) "printed to PDF" via PDFWriter print driver, pdf forms from same said sources, as well as scans (via acrobat 4x plug in), and faxed tif - printed to pdf via the PDFWriter (for sake of ease of use ofthe non-tech users at our facility). Our docs are archival in nature, however they are somewhat living docs too, in that they are an attempt at a paper-less (as opposed to paperless) office. They get additions made all the time, and re-arangement of the page orders is the order of the day. (appending) These pdf docs will also need to be re-assembled for different purposes, as they have different value to different "underwriters" depending on the combination of pages. (long involved - as if it isnt already - sorry) So there's my situation ..... url's ideas commentary on how to make it all play nice and make nice small pdf's?

We recently created a CD-ROM of PDF documents linked from a contents page. An index is automatically loaded on opening of the front page. The cd works without any problem on PC's however when loaded up in a MAC an error 109 is displayed. On some machines we get an error stating that the index is not available. The correct version of reader is installed because under the edit menu the search option is displayed however it is greyed out. Does anyone know what may be causing this problem?

This was the DofH reply: NHS Executive Headquarters Wellington House 133-155 Waterloo Rd London SE1 8UG 020 7972 2000 13th March 01 Dear Mr Postle, Thank you for your letter of March 2nd concerning the Government’s response to the Private Members Bill introduced Lord Alderdice. You know that the government has decided not to support the Bill. However despite their opposition to this as the vehicle, Lord Hunt has made it clear he believes there are good reasons to believe that better regulation of psychotherapy practice is needed. The government believes that statutory registration using the powers of the Health Act is the most appropriate way to deal with the regulation of psychotherapists, counselors and other related groups. As you may know, consultation has been taking place on an Order under Section 60 of the Health Act 1999 to replace the Professions Supplementary to Medicine Act 1960. If adopted, this would create a new federal and multi-disciplinary Health Professions Council with the power to extend its remit to the other groups not currently registered. However, I hope I can reassure you that the approach proposed by the Government through the Health Act will involve full consultation with all stakeholders prior to publication of any draft order. The Health Act contains a number of such safeguards, including affirmative resolution procedures in both Houses. Lord Hunt has asked officials to take forward work on consultation with all stakeholders. I am happy to confirm that we will include your organization in our communications, and I will be in touch in due course about how we propose to do this. Yours sincerely Anne Richardson Senior Policy Adviser _________________________ I am willing to be the channel for this stuff for the time being... any thoughts, reactions, suggestions?

We post PDF files to our website for our customers. Our customers have different needs. Some may want to VIEW-ONLY, VIEW & PRINT, VIEW & SAVE AS (if they have Acrobat) & PRINT after download, etc... We currently archive PDFs of 2 printing resolutions, 300 & 600 dpi. We want to reduce the resolution of the 600 dpi to 300, and reduce even the 300 to 72 if this is advisable. (If we supply a file for view only and speed of display, we'd have to supply a download/printable version.) Spec. and Scope- We have many GIGs of PDF to convert. The PDFs are sometimes 30+MB., which is prohibitive to download. They are optimized. Our server is set up to byte-serve. Acrobat 4.05c Many of the PDF were created by converting Impresse DocuBLOB to TIFF to PDF and may be PDF/Searchable Image format, others were created from distilled application files. Questions: Are there tools to help us efficiently lower the printing res. of the PDF? Is this the best way to handle the problems on the user side? How useful might the tools like ImageWorks, Quite a Box of Tricks and others be (?) since they address individual image resolution inside the PDF? And do any of the tools have a batch function for this? I'm sure there are other questions I should be asking, and if some of you have some insight into this topic I'd appreciate any input.

Aandi, you're right about not scanning directly into Acrobat 4.0. I was getting file sizes in excess of 5 MB per page. However, I subsequently figured out how to do a one step scan to output Acrobat image files and get reasonable file sizes (on the order of 30-40 KB/page from text documents). We've been using Pixel Translations QuickScan software to output TIFF files for import into Capture 2.0 to generate image plus hidden text files. For the direct scanning project, we needed Acrobat Image files. I hadn't realized that QuickScan will also output PDF files and also several other file types. While QuickScan is industrial strength scanning software, it's really simple to set it up for one step PDF image file output, and the results are super. It's easy enough for our staff to do it themselves. I'm sorry I didn't think of it sooner.

I'd suggest making two different sets of final PDFs; they would differ in how you treat the images, which probably account for the largest part of the file size. For Web Use: You can set the Distiller Job Options to downsample bitmaps to 72 dpi and specify the degree of JPEG compression, probably medium or high will do. For print use; Set the Job Options to downsample bitmap images to 300dpi and specify high (or maximum, if you are very concerned about image fidelity) compression of the JPEGs. You can set the comprssion of 2-bit (black and white) bitmaps to 600d or even higher, depending on what you think your audience wants for their print file. Just to avoid the problem of generating three or four versions of each file, these two variations should work for you. The 72dpi is good for on-line viewing, and the 300dpi is good for almost any high-quality print output your clients may want to use the PDFs for. Good luck.

Some random points of thought that might guide you into the right direction: * You are talking about Tiff & Searchable Image. I don't know about the DocuBLOB format, but line-art and text are much more space efficient than images. So redistilling from your original application might save a lot. * PDF's can contain a lot of invisible extra data that might not be needed in your case, e.g. halftone functions are for prepress use only. ICC colors provide color management but can be quite large, etc. Deleting/converting those will not affect your document but you will gain some/a lot of bytes. * Be careful about edge effects when downsampling Searchable Image PDF's. Such a PDF contains many images that are seamlessly placed next to each other. Downsampling might reveal the edges. * If you are working with non-Searchable Image PDF's you might also want to look into the font: if you want the user to be able to print a good looking document containing your company font, you need to embed it, but that will increase the size. On the other hand, you might want to unembed to font to save size, but then a substitute font will be used (without reflow!) The following Enfocus products might come in handy: * WebPerfect is interactive and optimizes your documents for the web.(color conversion, image downsampling, removing unnecessary elements, font (un)embedding) * PitStop Professional can edit and interactively run the WebPerfect Actionlist which does the same (except for security) but can be adjusted to your needs. * PitStop Server can run any actionlist in an automated hot folder setup.

I have a number of links to websites in a PDF, but whenever the link is clicked on, Acrobat downloads the web page and appends it to the PDF. Is there a way to link to a website so that Acorbat displays the URL in the browser? Even better, is there any way to target a new browser window? Thanks, Alfred Kahn 84thomas, inc.

After reinstallation and rebooting I noticed that my virtual Distiller Acrobat printer had disappeared from my list on printers. I had no error message from the installation. BTW, I am running Gateway 733MHz Pentium with 128 MB RAM, 30 GB HDD, WIN2K SR1, and an ATI Rage 128 video board. I tried uninstalling the full program and then reinstalling. I read the Acrobat 4.05 readme file and deleted the uninst.isu file and reinstalled. While I can recreate a Acrobat Distiller virtual printer by using the Adobe Windows PostScript Driver Universal Installer 1.0.1 with the PPD from either Acrobat 4.05 or the new JAWS PDF Creator PPD (I think it's better than the Acro PPD), my Acro virtual printer doesn't work like the original in programs like Ventura Publisher 8 (automated creation feature, "Publish as" doesn't work anymore.) What have I done wrong? What should I try to get that virtual printer functionality back again? Well, at least the Capture plug-in works now.

Messages here indicated that a postscript printer of some kind had to be installed to enable the Distiller printer to instal. But multiple uninstal/re-instals of Acrobat didn't produce it. lately I gave up and re-installed w2000 which restored the virtual printer. A high price, I felt, for normality. It certainly seems a weird and very unhelpful anomaly.

If you want a screen ruling of 133lpi and your image is opened up in Photoshop at 300dpi, using the rule that the resolution must be 1.5 or 2 times the screen ruling allows you to see if you are covered or not. This may be a manual way of doing this but at least you can see for yourself that you are covered, and you will not be relying on any plug-in to give you that information. I personally like to see for myself that the resolution of my images are covered. If I receive a PDF with different screen rules embedded within, I make it a policy that the creator of the PDF must inform me so I can pass this information onto our printers. Ultimately, the end printed result is my responsibility so we give our printers as much information as possible.

(on both Windows and Mac versions of Quark please) In my old company, my computer there seemed to do it flawlessly but I've lost the settings and process so if anyone knows...thanks! When on the PC, I go File>Print and the dialogue box pops up: In Printer: Acrobat Distiller Pages: All My question regards the Setup Tab: In Printer Description I get only 5 choices: Generic BW, Generic Color, Generic Imagesetter, Tektronic Phaser printer 1, Tek Phaser printer 2.... Now in my old company, I had a PPD that also matched "Printer". How come here, I don't have an "Acrobat Distiller" PPD, just Generic Color, blah, blah, etc???? When I press Print, it then asks me to name a file. When I take that new file into Distiller, it makes the PDF but when I open it, I only get Page 1, even though it says "ALL". I then used "Export PDF" Plugin, and it did it correctly, BUT one of my images is like a 72dpi file that was enlarged, very pixellated! I know the file is 300dpi. My compression settings are what I've always used in the past: JPEG High and downsample to 300dpi, but the images look like something enlarged from a web page. What gives and why is Quark so inconsistent? I also have a Mac used more for file exchange and not my main workstation. How is it different on the Mac side. It seems more complicated on that side as I have to go through and ad lib my way around the half a million screens within the one print dialogue box. Quark is seriously making me want to switch to InDy or lay out the newsletter even in Illustrator. Just save to PDF and you're done. I've had times where Quark PDFs came out all in Courier. ARRRRGH, drives me NUTS! Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!

I should be able to use "copy" and "paste" to get these characters. so from PagerMaker for Chinese, I tried 3 ways on windows: 1. using "print" then choose "PDFDistiller", and in the options, uncheck all font "embeding" options, because "embeding font" will change the orignal encoding of chinese characters. the result is unreadable garbage characters. the log file says the font MSung-light is not found, using courier insead. 2. using "print" then choose "PDFWriter". in this way the encoding of characters in resulted PDF file remain the same. i.e. i can copy something and paste them to notepad. but the problem is pdfwriter cut images into small pieces, and print effect is not so good. 3. using "Save to PDF" of PageMaker. i think it uses Distiller too. so i got the same result with option 1 and in the log file, i found the same error. is there anyway to use PDF distiller and still keep the encoding of chinese characters? wei, hu -----Original Message----- From: Leonard Rosenthol [mailto:leonardr@digapp.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2001 10:47 AM To: pdf@lists.pdfzone.com Cc: HuWei@ednovation.com.sg Subject: Re: [PDF] print to chinese PS At 10:06 AM +0800 3/28/01, Hu Wei wrote: >I am trying to print a chinese PageMaker file to PostScript file, How?

If you choose not to embed the font, then you need to add your font to the Distiller font list, so that Distiller knows where to find the necessary font information. Do keep in the mind that if you don't embed the font, then anyone w/o the font can't read the document.

The PDF graphics model has no boundaries. Objects can lie anywhere. Those which lie outside the visible area will be, well, invisible. However, you can't assume that an object is invisible just because it has negative user space co-ordinates because. 1. Depending on the context, the position may be transformed by a transformation matrix. 2. The object may have its left side outside the visible area, but be large enough that the right side is visible. 3. The origin of a page need not be (0,0). It is quite possible that a page may have an origin of (-100,-100). Essentially, you should not need any special processing for these objects.

I personally don't see designing on a PC as an issue anymore, especially when you can send it as PDF files. Anyways, I've been given the task of exploring "future directions" in regards to Print/Web software. Currently some of us are using XPress 4. Its o.k. with me, but I much rather like InDesign. (based on past experience using ver. 1.0) I haven't heard much (been a Castaway) in regards to 1.5. What is the scoop? If you were to "integrate" file exchange between Macs and PCs, which is the "better" program? InDy or XPress? Can InDy indeed open XPress files pretty much intact? I personally feel InDy is the way to go because: 1. Adobe product integration, esp Acrobat 2. Better TIFF previews (that automatically puts it on top ;o) 3 Multiple Undos etc. Am I wrong and if so, can someone give me good reason to "NOT" go w/ InDy over XPress? I was told that Quark is not optimized for OSX and that InDy has optimization w/ the PDF interface in osX seemlessly. Is that true or half baked rumor? We currently have Quark files, so compatibility is an issue. And most of the files were developed w/o many XTensions, so that shouldn't be a problem. Would you recommend one or the other and why? Thanks for all the input help!!!!

Anyone have an answer? -----Original Message----- From: David J. Perry [mailto:perryd@telocity.com] Sent: Friday, March 30, 2001 5:14 PM To: unicode@unicode.org Subject: Unicode in PDF files This is sort of a technical font question, but since it concerns getting Unicode characters to display properly in the popular PDF format, I think it's germane; any pointers to other sources of help will be gratefully accepted. I have created a Unicode font (several hundred characters) and want to use it in PDF documents. I've been working with TrueType because of Type 1's inability to access more than 256 characters at time, although I could generate a Type 1 font if need be. When I embed the TT font in a PDF, things actually work, rather to my surprise. But, as best I can tell, Acrobat actually creates a Type 3 font from my TrueType outline, rather than using the TT font. This prints OK but looks _horrible_ on screen, presumably due to the lack of hinting. Does anybody know a way around this? if I generated a Type 1 font in FontLab, with hinting, could Acrobat use this? I see that the charts on the Unicode web site are in PDF format--maybe someone can tell how this was done.

As well they should - TrueType and Unicode are fully supported in the PDF specification. > But, as best I can tell, >Acrobat actually creates a Type 3 font from my TrueType outline, rather >than using the TT font. I doubt that. Acrobat will use whatever is in the actual PDF document - it doesn't "convert" font types (though it will do substitution if you don't embed). How are you creating the PDF file? What software (and version) on what OS platform? And what version of Acrobat, on what OS platform, are you checking it against?
