Large PDF exports (1gb+) in Publisher are corrupt.


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone

This has been an ongoing issue; normally I solve it by either downsampling my PDFs, or exporting problem pages as a high res TIF with no layers, then opening it in designer and turning it into a PDF, and then adding it back in and re-exporting it. Honestly, it is a bit of a pain, so wondering if someone could have a look and see what I am doing wrong. For reference, this is the input:

and the output...

I am using the latest version of all the v2 suite on macos; I've attached the source file. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I exported your file in PDF (Préréglages : PDF pour impression) on my Mac and I don't have the problem you had (only missing fonts).

Perhaps could you post a screen capture of your export presets ?

Most, or maybe the only, issues I have had when generating PDF files from InDesign have been caused by fonts. Very old fonts, corrupt ones. Maybe the same can happen with Publisher.

This file also seems to export fine for me here, please could you provide a copy of the font used in this document just so we can rule this out?

Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP.

Hi everyone

The font is Silver Age LC from Blambot. I will post only for the purposes of debugging; anyone wanting to use this font for their own work should buy a license

Thanks for your help! Here are the fonts and the export settings:
