pdf files Question And Answer
My palm pilot can view PDF's and I use it for school. So, it would be so much easier if I could convert my files into PDF's and transfer them to my palm. If you know something, please leave me an answer.
I have WinRar and I already zipped the pdf files and some I can send one at a time but I have one extremely large file I need to send by e-mail. How do I do this? Please give me great details ASAP. Thank you.
I use Adobe Illustrator to create CMYK files that get printed - my printer preferes PDF file to print from - but I find if I create a PDF, using the correct high res job options, the colours always vary when the job is printed. However if I send the original Illustrator file to print, the colours are almost exact. Can anyone assist with this dilema?
I guess what Im asking is - why does converting a file to PDF, using job options that are not tampering with colour whatsoever, then produce a pdf with different colours? Which in turn print that way.
I need to scan 60 page documents (loose pages, all A4) on a colour scanner to produce colour pdf file. The pdf file needs to be under 4mb so therefore compressed heavily. Is there a scanner which will do this automatically without 3rd party software?
I've heard of programs that can change your written notes into pdf files (or similar) by either writing with a special pen on a special tablet or scanning them in and converting the writing to editable text. Can anyone help?
Links are especially appreciated.
Thanks =)

I have a few PS files that I want to save into one PDF document- do I need special software to do it?

I think Adobe Reader just opens the files, am I right?

I have a bunch of pdf files on my pc. Most, if not all, have links to some other page or website. Some of the files will not connect to the links provided. When I click on them I get the text window asking me if I want to block or allow. I click allow and nothing. Some of these pdf files are new. Just released. I did contact one of the authers, a well known internet marketer, about this problem in his ebook and he asked me to send him a copy of the ebook in question. I did that and he sent back a reply saying that he could not find a problem with that file. Is there some setting somewhere that needs adjusting? Can someone please help me? Thanks Richard.

I'm trying to save a one page file designed with Photoshop as a PDF file.
the file is 800*600 pxl.
When i tried to save the file, even it has no high quality, and even i saved it with the lowest quality, the one page file saved on about 500KB.
the common on the PDFs is that the multiple page files are like 500KB with 20 pages.
Is there is something i missing here? Is there is a right way to save the file on a small disk space?

Hi, I'm working on my website right now (it's a yahoo site) and would like to sell the knitting and cross stitch patterns I design as downloadable pdf files too (besides selling them on CD). In two weeks I'll get a new computer and my daughter who bought it for me said that I can make pdf files. But what is necessary to make the pdf files downloadable? I know that the custiomer will receive an email with a link or instructions. How does it works? Do I need a special software or program?
I would appreciate your help and advice very much. Thank you.

I am looking for software to organize my PDF files. I get my faxes in PDF and would love to tag them. There is a great program called "Yep" available free for mac which tags files. But need something with similar functionality for PC. Any suggestions?
Thanks
I'm on a Mac, OSX. And for some reason all my PDF files are looking like plain documents (white page icon)... instead of the little Acrobat PDF icons (red and white) like they should be. I tried to reassign all the files using the "open with" option in Get Info, but that didn't help.
Do you know how to correct this?
Unfortunately, the answer below doesn't help at all! All that does is put a shortcut to the Program on the desktop. That does not correct the way every single PDF file on my computer looks (i.e., with a plain white document icon, instead of a PDF file icon).
Regarding the .PDF (.pdf) extension: all of the files I'm talking about HAVE a .pdf extension.
(example: filename.pdf)
But, they still have plain white icons!
Anyone else have any ideas???
Why are people willing to spend extra money to be able to make PDF files? What makes them so special? Somebody just gave me the software to create PDF files. What can I do with it? Why are they better than other kinds of files?
i want to convert an application form in PDF form to Word form, for the sake of writing it out.

I don't undertsnad why, but I am unable to open any pdf files. I do a web search on a topic then try to open an entry that has a pdf file. I click on the entry and the screen says done, but then no pdf file is opened. What do I do? Is there software I need to download and from where?
I can open any site on Mozilla, except anything linking to a PDF file. I just get an error message saying "[file name] could not be opened because associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences."
I don't know what they mean. I can't find anything about preferences or PDF files anywhere. I'm assuming you do it from the part where it has "File, Edit, View, Go, etc" but I can't find it. I tried clicking Tools and then Options, but I don't see any option referring to PDF files.
It's kind of annoying having to go back to Internet Explorer just to see a PDF file, or having to save it to the computer and then open it was Adobe.
How can I fix this? Thanks!
PS: It's not that Mozilla and PDFs just aren't comatible; my roommate has been using Mozilla for years and PDFs work fine on her computer. But she can't find that setting to fix it either.
I do have the most up-to-date Adobe and the most up-to-date Mozilla. I didn't know there was some kind of plugin, I thought it came with it automatically...
SmartSpider's site didn't help, and I tried to download the plugin from the Adobe site and it told me I already had it. I haven't had a chance to try and uninstall it completely, but I recently updated anyway, so if it was a problem with the program itself, it should have been fixed by now...

I have downloaded PrimoPDF in order to convert MW files into PDF files, and it has worked, but I've noticed that on some specific files, it seems it messes up. It goes all the way to the point of creating pages, then it says that the PDF converter couldn' t change that file.
Has anyone else had this problem? And what do you do to fix it?
thankz.
Yes, it's a Microsoft Word document.
