Re: Export Error - Invalid Colorspace in PDF

Hi Laubender, I copied, via clipboard, just the graphic from Illustrator to InDesign and exported to PDF. I had the same issue. The graphic has 3 colours, each with a gradient (dark-light-dark), as if the colour emanates from the middle (light) and gets darker toward the edges of the design. Maybe it is just something wrong with the way I created the graphic in Illustrator. Cheers, Ken

Thank you rudo123. I must have copied over the image from Ilustrator in clipboard and pasted. Once I 'placed' the file and exported it worked. This does seem silly though. Surely you should be able to copy and paste from one Adobe software to another? Thank you Laubender for the hint regarding preflight. I will have to take a closer look at that.

Hi I have created a logo in Illustrator and 'placed' the image into InDesign. Then added the company name in text and when complete I changed to Outline. The document settings have the colorspace as CMYK. I export to PDF, keeping the print marks. Despite the PDF being created, it cannot be opened in Acrobat Pro although I can open it in Preview (OSX). I have tried resaving from Preview but I still get the error "There was an error processing a page. Invalid ColorSpace." when trying to open the file. I am trying to send to a company to embroider the logo and name on shirts but they cannot open the corrupted file. I searched the forums but it pretty much says to ensure that I save the file using an Adobe product. Seeing as I am using Illustrator, InDesign and Acrobat Pro, I think those bases are covered. Any help appreciated. Noob
