Thanks for your help. The people at my printer have to have a file that works with Adobe. They didn't even know about Scribus.

hi cdjr398

how do you export your .pdf files?
when i open my files in acrobat reader and look at the file properties (ctrl + d), it says that the file was produced by 'scribus pdf library 1.6.3' or something like that. your file doesn't contain any information of the application.

if you could share the .sla file as well, i would export it here to see if things work different...

When I open up the original non-compressed file in Brave Browser the PDF opens perfectly with on deletions.

Funny thing, I was trying to compress the PDF file because it was too big. When I dragged the file to attach it, it opened in my Brave Browser. Surprisingly it looked not bad with only one small item and the bad page not coming through. This is much better than the file I attached below.

it would probably help, if you could share a pdf file created by scribus and that does not open correctly in acrobat....

PDF Generation / [SOLVED] Scribus File Not Open...
Last post by cdjr398 - February 04, 2025, 03:58:27 PM
I do a neighborhood 12 page magazine using Scribus 1.6.2 to do layout. It works great except for one main problem.

The PDF generated by Scribus will not open properly in Adobe Acrobat Ver 2024.005.20400.

Another frustrating item is that the PDF reader I use most "Skim" does a great job of reading the PDF, no problem. My printer who has never heard of Scribus or Skim insists that the PDF file open in Adobe Acrobat.

Again the within Scribus everything looks fine. In the Adobe Acrobat PDF for some reason the cover comes out with a few other things but all other pages are blank.

Any help greatly appreciated,

Quote from: MrB on February 02, 2025, 11:21:18 PMThis is a wayland issue.
It also happens when I boot in xorg (x11) - gnome offers the choice.
The OP also specified x11
