Hi,

I have been using QuickPDFs to merge an invoice with a PDF that was created with Adobe Acrobat, scanning documents. It works fine with older versions. If the PDF is scanned with Acrobat 9, after I merge the PDFs, the invoice is fine, but the pages created with Acrobat 9 appear is small, white squares. FoxIt will display the pages fine. Acrobat will not read the pages. QuickPDF generates an access violation. If I delete the first page - the invoice page - in Acrobat, I get an error dialog: "Expected a dict object." I tried to process the PDF with PDF Enhancer and I got the error: "An error has occurred: expected a dictionary object."

Some important notes:

The original, Acrobat 9 scan can be opened and viewed prior to using QuickPDF's MergeFiles.
Both PDFs that are merged have a PDF version of 1.4.
FoxIt's PDF reader can read, display, and print the PDF after merging. It is only Acrobat and QuickPDF that have a problem.

Thanks,

David

Hi David!

I think it's only Acrobat that has a problem ;-)
In some cases Acrobat uses built-in-checks while pdf-creation to prevent a pdf from modifying with third party tools (like we know it already with newest pdf-forms).

Cheers, Ingo

Ingo,

Is there a way to change the settings in Acrobat 9 to prevent problems?

Thanks,

David
