I have a pdf file which got exported from BIRT report. I tried opening that pdf file in adobe acrobat and tried printing it. It got printed properly.
But when I try to open the same pdf file using PDF complete and print it nothing gets printed. But the pdf file is getting opened in PDF complete properly.
Is birt pdf report not compatible with printing using pdf complete or so?
BIRT is compatible with creating printable PDF.
There is insufficeint information here about discover the users specific issue.
What version of BIRT is being used?
How is the PDF being 'exported' (as opposed to open as)?
How is the PDF being saved?

I have a scenario where we have to combine multiple PDF a file into one PDF file. We are using Adobe Acrobat to work with PDF like converting DOC/PPT/XLS file to PDF and Add watermark in PDF.
Adobe Acrobat DC have an option to combine file in a single pdf file but I need the solution automate.
Any suggestion or code snippet would be helpful.
Thank you in advance.
cfdocument in ColdFusion 11 is not converting my Word Documents to PDF correctly. I have OpenOffice 4.1.3 installed and configured in CF Admin. I am able to open the source document in OpenOffice and Export to PDF without issue. However, when I run the following code, the resulting PDF is "gobbledigook":
<cfdocument
format="pdf"
srcfile="#_tempSourceFilePath#"
filename="#_destinationFilePath#" />
Here is an excerpt of the resulting PDF (the snip shows developer edition, but, the same thing happens with Standard installation):
I can't figure out why this is happening. Any ideas?
The problem is:
srcfile="#_tempSourceFilePath#"
This is apparently the path to a binary file that is not browser-writable. A necessary condition for the srcfile attribute is that the file be browser-writable. That is, without the need for a browser plugin.
I am trying to print a section of an existing pdf to a new pdf. The original is searchable and selectable but the new pdf cannot do either. I am using "adobe acrobat reader DC" and print via "Microsoft Print to PDF". Unsure if there is any other relevant information.
After searching for a period of time I could not find an answer that allows for direct PDF to PDF print.
I did find a workaround however.
I downloaded a free software called PrimoPDF. Once installed, PrimoPDF becomes a printer option within Adobe acrobat reader. I then selected my desired pages and printed to PrimoPDf instead of Microsoft Print to PDF. This Generated a .ps file. I then imported the .ps file into PrimoPDF application and was able to generate a .pdf from that. The newly generated pdf was searchable and selectable and exactly what I needed.
Hopefully someone else finds this useful in the future.
Generally refrying (printing to PostScript then converting back to PDF) is a bad idea. The reason that Microsoft Print to PDF created a file that wasn't searchable is because when Adobe Reader detects that the printer it is targeting isn't capable of rendering the PDF correctly because of any number of reasons, like it doesn't have the right fonts for example, it will render the PDF itself and send an image to the printer. A simpler PDF probably would have worked just fine.
You are much better off getting a tool that will simply allow you to extract the pages you need to a new file rather than printing.
I have a program that outputs a PDF file using PDFBox (It merges a bunch of PDFs using PDFMergerUtility).
I need to use Acrobat 5 to read that PDF, but in some pages i get Error proccesing page. A drawing error ocurred.
I cant update my acrobat so, there is a way to downgrade the PDF using PDFbox?
So the state publishes PDF files for us to download. However these files only look right in Adobe Acrobat. When I try to open them in PDFSharp or SyncFusion it fails with the error that there are no pages. When I have PDFSharp or SyncFusion create a new file from the pages in the PDF the result is the following;
However if I save this document as an archive-able PDF/A in Adobe Acrobat Pro, the file straightens out and both PDFSharp and SyncFusion have no problems printing and viewing the resulting PDF file. I can't get SyncFusion to re-save the document as a PDF/A and have it fix like with Adobe.
What could cause this issue?
Edit: The PDF file says it was created by an Elixir program which converts open document formats to PDF. Possibly Librex.
