Adobe Processing Error 131

Yesterday after OCRing a set of PDFs using the Nuance Create Assistant utility, I received this error message when I opened the files in Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader.

The newly text searchable PDFs could be viewed normally in Nuance PDF Converter, but when reviewed in Adobe blank pages appeared. In order to solve this problem I had to convert the files individually in Acrobat to reader extended PDFs. See the option under File . . . Save As Other . . . Reader Extended PDF . . . Enable More Tools.

Preflight

In Adobe Acrobat, under Tools . . . Print Production, you can use the Preflight utility to examine a PDF's printing specifications.

Amongst other things, Preflight can convert colors, and remove content in order reduce the file size.

PDF Splitter - Extract Pages into New PDF with Designated Names - UPDATE

Just a brief note tonight about how to write the script for PDF Splitter discussed in the Tip of the Night for January 28, 2018. For some reason when the names for the files are designated to begin with a number instead of a letter, PDF Splitter truncates the names at the beginning by one digit. Be sure to add a letter prefix to the names of extracted PDF files that you create using this software. So for example instead of a line of script like this:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\PDF Splitter\PDFSplitter.exe" "C:\O'Shea Documents\Litigation Support\PDF Splitter\2016_Judges_Survey.pdf" "C:\O'Shea Documents\Litigation Support\PDF Splitter\process\" -p "1-8" -cp 8 -t "888172001"

. . . write the script like this:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\PDF Splitter\PDFSplitter.exe" "C:\O'Shea Documents\Litigation Support\PDF Splitter\2016_Judges_Survey.pdf" "C:\O'Shea Documents\Litigation Support\PDF Splitter\process\" -p "1-8" -cp 8 -t "x888172001"

PDF Splitter should create a file which includes the x in front and the full sequence of digits. Naturally you can remove the x after the script has been run using Bulk Rename Utility.
