How can you disable Adobe Reader from opening a file right after you save it as a pdf?

Hi,
I often save word files as pdf files and right after I save them as pdfs it opens the file in adobe reader. How can I disable this?
Thanks

Ahh, but that's the design function of any PDF viewer add-on to a browser.
To avoid -- Use the browser feature that saves a file to the local machine.
Then open the file with the appropriate application.
If your machine/device does not support this then you'd want to change to one that supports what you want eh.
Be well...

  • How do I disable Adobe Reader from opening pdfs?

    how do I disable Adobe Reader from opening pdfs in Safari? I tried unchecking the box for opening pdfs in browser under Adobe's Internet prefs, but that didn't seem to work.

    Hello-
    I actually saw a solution to this earlier today. To disable PDF viewing in safari, first quit safari, then open terminal, and type in this command:
    defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool YES
    To re-enable PDF viewing in safari simply open the terminal, and change the "YES" in the command above to a "NO"
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I stop  Adobe Reader from opening after start up?

    I just installed version 9. I remember a question that appeared during installation that was something like "do you want Adobe Reader to open after start up?" I said checked yes because I assumed this meant I wanted it in my StartUp menu. After everything loads and my desktop comes up, the Adobe Reader file opens up showing all the program's files and just sits there. I have to close it each time after start up.
    I looked through Preferences, but can't find a way of stopping the program's file window from opening after start up. How can I stop this? Thanks for your help.

  • How can I make Adobe Reader 9 open for incoming PDFs instead of Acrobat 5.0?

    How can I make Adobe Reader 9 open for incoming PDFs instead of Acrobat 5.0?

    Hi,
    Assuming that you have Reader 9.3.4 already installed on your machine, you can try the following to make Reader 9.3.4 as the default PDF opening application:
    1. Right click on any PDF on your system and click on the "Open With" Option in the context menu that appears. In case you get another submenu, click on Chose Program in that menu. (In case you do not see any "Open With" option, then hold down the Shift key and right click on the file)
    2. Click on Browse button in the dialog that appears, and select Reader 9. Make sure that you select the checkbox for "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file"
    3. Click on OK.
    This will make Adobe Reader 9 as the default viewer for all PDFs on your system.

  • How can I keep Adobe Reader from closing 30 secs after I open it? Windows Vista

    My Adobe Reader closes after 30 seconds or so of being opened. I've been making changes to some of my windows settings in an effort to reduce risk of viruses and malware, etc. I don't know why it affected the time Adobe is allowed to stay open and so don't know how to fix the problem. How can I fix this?

    Three things to try:
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

  • How can I stop Adobe Reader from reading (seeking) the floppy drive when opening/closing any PDF?

    Ever since I opened a PDF file from my floppy drive Adobe Reader insists on checking/seeking/reading the floppy drive whenever I open and whenever I close any PDF (not using the floppy).  It is very annoying, as I use many PDFs per day and it creates a delay and noise every time.

  • How can I disable toolbar features when opening a file in a browser?

    Hi,
        I am trying to create an application that loads a pdf in a browser and want to disable certain toolbar features so that the user is incapable of ever seeing them. I know how to do this manually by going to the toolbar settings, but the user can easily enable them as well doing the same process. How can I code this to enable and disable features of adobe reader without having to change the registry keys or by doing them manually? Is there a way to do this? Is there a command that I can type in the command prompt to do this? I am working in C++ on a windows app.
    Basically, I am asking how to edit any/all Edit>Preferences by coding it or through command prompt when launching the pdf without having to do it manually.
        Much help would be appreciated. Thank you!

    If you are using URLConnection
    myURLConnection.setRequestProperty("pragma:","no-cache"Actually, the 'pragma' header is an HTP 1.0 (old) concept. The one for HTTP 1.1 is 'Cache-Control'. That said, you should always use both to support old/new browsers.
    You could also use the following headers :
    Expires, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate etc...
    You could also implement a getLastModified() method in your servlet, which returns the time (as a long) at which the content was last changed. The server could then intercept 'If-Modified-Since' requests.
    Keep in mind that, because of several notorious browser bugs ( http://www.web-caching.com/browserbugs.html ), it can be difficult to effectively turn off caching across the board.

  • Adobe reader not open the file immediately after saving it  with Microsoft Office

    I have an older version Adobe Reader 9, and worked fine until today. I did the upgrade to Adobe Reader XI (11.0.06).
    I have Window´s Office 2010 on my computer. When I save a document on *pdf file, Adobe starts automatically and open the document (Open file after publishing.) After the upgrade, documents are not open automatically and shows the next message:  "There was an error  during initialization. An internal error ocurrred." and  "There was an error opening this document. Access denied.". But if I try manually, files are open. How do I fix this problem.

    I'm having a similar issue.  The .pdf files open fine locally, but when I put them up online, they will not open and I get the same error message.  If I download and save the files, they show a 1KB file size instead of 168KB.
    Drive space is not an issue (looking at over 225GB of free space on the main drive).
    In searching on-line, the main cause I am finding is receiving the file via e-mail and a decoding issue.  This is not the case with these files as they were created on my machine and uploaded using Filezilla to the server.  I'm using Acrobat Pro 7.0 on a windows box running Vista Ultimate.
    Any ideas on what would be causing this issue?
