Hi

I have Windows XP Home and ADOBE program
I have just installed PRIMO .pdf and files seem to be copied into .pdf but only header and footers appear.
Have I missed something?

Cheers

Hi

I'm just trying to convert Word files into .pdf.
When I opened the new files only the header and footer appears.
The text in between is missing!

Can you confirm that when you view the word file in print preview that it displays the whole file properly?

Yes- entire text appears in Word Print Preview

1. Enable logging:
Conversion Options window, select Options, and enable the Conversion Log
2. Review the following file for information about why the conversion failed
C:\Program Files\activePDF\PrimoPDF\filename.log)

I was unable to replicate your issue with your file using your pre-converted file.

Are you saying your issue is no longer occurring?

Converted .pdf file sen to you.

Printer now "not responding" when trying to convert other files.

Hi

Sorry for delay. I now open word documents but when I go to File then Print the document freezes and I get "The printer has not yet responded..." and I can't open PRIMO program

Make sure the PrimoPDF printer is listed and selected as the printer.

Next make sure your Print Spooler is running.

Hi

Word files in English script seem to convert ok. I have tried with files in Chinese script but these has appeared blank.
I went to 2. C:\Program Files\activePDF\PrimoPDF\filename.log). How do I review the file for information about why the conversion failed?

Did you try restarting your print spooler?

Also tried to convert Excel and Publisher files into .pdf - worked well. Can't understand why these Chinese script files seem to convert but no text appears

The main problem is I am unable to replicate the issue you are having using your file.

Are you getting a error code 18 every time you convert, or just on this word document?

Viccar

Hi

Just on this and another word document with Chinese characters

Well that would typically tell us it has something to do with your files and not PrimoPDF.

Please allow me a little time to test and see if I can help you find a solution to this issue.

Hi

Cintacted person who made original word file and got him to send me the file in .pdf form. Problem with spooler on this file did not resolve itself.
