Can I create interactive pdfs using Indesign CS4?

$
0
0

I know this is a long shot. I still have CS4 and Acrobat 9 Pro. Apparently Acrobat 9 does not have the interactive import option. I want to create a document in Indesign CS4 using simple buttons that will take the reader to a particular page (not just next/previous) in the document. Then create a pdf that will be able to use those buttons. I can export to SWF but Acrobat 9 does not import the buttons. I can create the needed buttons in Acrobat itself but this is a time consuming extra step.

 

Thanks,

Paul


Only Printing First Page On Front Sides Setting

If I seek to create a multiple-page pdf, and I use my custom settings set at Front Sides, it will only print the first page. If I use the Both Sides setting,m it will print all pages but, of course, every other page is blank and I have to delete them.  Any suggestions (other than "don't use custom settings") to allow me to get all pages to print on the Front Sides settings?  Thank you.

how can i create a form that moves to the next page as you type

I am able to create a fillable PDF form but what I am trying to do is create a 2 page form that lets you type and move on to the next page when you run out of space on the first page without having to manually move to the next page.  It would be like a report with a header on the first page and a place for you to enter narrative but then automatically continues typing onto second page of form.

Acrobat 8 Standard no longer creates PDF through Adobe PDF "printer" - reinstall does not fix

$

We purchased, and have successfully been using Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard to generate PDF's from a PCB layout package using the Adobe PDF "printer".  We are using Windows 7 Professional.   Normally once the user "prints" the output to the Adobe PDF printer, a popup window is presented for the user to browse to a folder and assign a filename to the PDF file being generated.  After years of working properly, that popup stopped coming up.  Now all that happens is that "jobs" accumulate in the Adobe PDF print queue.

 

Tried reinstalling with a newly issued serial number (a new serial number that Adobe provided online since the old servers for "registering" Adobe 8 were no longer in service). 

(Below copied from an online chat with Adobe Service.  1-9-18)

 

Mohammad Sameer:

 

I would like to inform you that acrobat 8 has become the end of life software that is why we do not have the activation servers available for this, however we have a replacement file that will activate this product but to install that file you will have to uninstall the existing acrobat 8

 

After that go to this link and then run the file present in number 6point.

 

https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html

After that, please go to this below link, scroll down and click on acrobat 8, after that click on sign in and then read all the instructions to install the replacement file.

https://helpx.adobe.com/in/acrobat/kb/acrobat-8-9-product-downloads.html

If you face any issue in this, please refer to the self help link as this product is supported on the forums link.
https://forums.adobe.com/welcome

 

We followed the procedure described above with the cc-cleaner.  We created a new Adobe ID and received a new Acrobat 8 serial number and were able to download a new "installer" but when we run the downloaded installer, it tries to download a new copy of Adobe 8.  The download of the new copy of Adobe 8 never completes.  It appears that the file the new installer tries to download doesn't exist.  We use our old CD media and put in the newly provided serial number.  The install seemed to complete without issue, but the original problem of the popup browser not appearing when the user prints to the Adobe PDF "printer" is still there.

 

So we need help to either fix the existing installed Acrobat 8 so that when a user "prints" a PDF using Adobe PDF printer it provides the user a browser window to put a new PDF file or else fix the download so that we can download and install a "new" Acrobat 8 Standard

Usually it is no problem: File > Create > From Clipboard

 

Right now I either get :
"Error attempting to read from file"

or

Acrobat encountered an error while inserting pages to the document.

 

I already exited and relaunched Acrobat, problem still exists.

It is an image that I wish to copy paste. As said normally no problem.

 

Note that I can paste the image into, for instance, MS Word.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks.

Why do I get the error message when storing pdf file? "Please check if you have permission to write to this location and have sufficient disk space."

I have the latest versions of Acrobat on Mac.

I try to store a reduced size pdf file, and get the error message

"Please check if you have permission to write to this location and have sufficient disk space."

 

What has changed? I did not get this message before.

How can I reduce the size of pdf files, if storing does not work?

 

Is this is a bug in Acrobat? or am I doing something wrong?

Just downloaded and installed the latest version 2019.010.20098. When I open a pdf and make a change and attempt to save it I get the above error. If I try and save it to another folder or change the name I get this error."The file may be read only, or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder" Both of which give me the same error when I try. I have tried this on 3 or 4 documents so it has to be something else.

We have a very large document that has named links in it. They do not always work as URLs. I find that I have to drop my cursor into the browser address bar a second time and [ENTER] to go to one of the URLs.

Adobe Acrobat DC issue, print PDF as letter, ends up with each page being 3.54 x 1.14

$

Our head of accounting is having intermittent problems printing to PDFs using Adobe PDF from certain programs.  The main issue is with our ERP, Great Plains.  I have not been able to reproduce the problem with word but in Great Plains the report might work once then stop or it might work several times.   We have this problem with at least one other piece of software specific to our industry, Coach Manager.  When he prints, he uses the defaults to print to letter and the report will end up with each page being 3.54 by 1.14 and the report ends up being 4 or 5 times longer than it should be.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Acrobat and support walked me through reinstalling the Adobe PDF printer.  I have compared the settings for the printer to other machines but I don't see anything that might cause this.  I'm completely open to suggestions of where to look now. 

 

Thanks in advance!
