How to open Adobe Reader file from another native IOS application?

There is an existing thread, but I want to re-open it because I think this is an important feature that we need badly.  I was wondering if there is any plan to add this feature so we can open PDFs directly into Adobe from the web / other apps.
How to open Adobe Reader file from another native IOS application?
Basically, we just want to use a custom URL scheme to open a specific document in the App.  Currently, this only opens the app but does not load the file.
APB

Not to hijack the conversation but I can explain why this would be useful for both the above case and another.
What I believe Pavel is talking about is setting up a "URL Scheme" for the Adobe Acrobat iOS application so that you can easily open a PDF specifically in Adobe Acrobat iOS from other native applications and even from web applications opened within Safari. This is particularly useful if your application requires some of the specific features in Adobe Reader iOS to grant them the best experience possible and you want to encourage this.
Another case: If you're using Adobe Livecycle's document security modules (that encrypts PDF files so that Adobe Acrobat must "phone home" to decrypt and view the document), these PDF's can only be viewed inside the Adobe Acrobat application and appear as blank in most other PDF readers. Having a URL scheme allows your application utilising this functionality to have a 1 click step to view the PDF rather than the current non-user friendly process:
- Within Safari, touch the PDF link (appears as blank in the default Safari PDF reader, which in itself is confusing)
  - Touch "Open in..."
  - Touch "Adobe Acrobat"
We have an immediate need for this functionality for the example above. I can resubmit it in a separate post if necessary.

  • Cannot open adobe reader files.....because it was not a supported type file.......

    Cannot open adobe reader file............could not open because it was not a supported type file...........or damaged by email.... What support does it need????

    Impossible to say. All we can know is that it is NOT a valid PDF file.
    You could take a look. Try this.
    1. Open the file in Microsoft Word (or NotePad).
    2. If the file is good, use it - it was a Word (or text) file.
    3. Otherwise, look at the first few lines. These will probably be gobbledegook.
    4. Copy and paste the first few lines into your reply, perhaps someone will recognise what the file really is.

  • How do I sync my Adobe Reader files from my smartphone to my laptop?

    I have some e-books and files on my Adobe Reader app through my phone, but I also want to read them on my laptop by logging on to Adobe.com. How can I sync these files from one place to another?

    If you keep the files on Acrobat.com, and access them only from there, they are automatically synched.
    I have some PDF forms on Acrobat.com, which I update sometimes from my desktop and sometimes from my Android tablet.  I always see the latest version on either platform.

  • How do you open adobe reader docs from a cd-rom

    How do I open Adobe PDF doc from a cd-rom

    Yes, I recently bought a book with a cd-rom with it that has documents on the cd that I can copy and use for my students and use as assessments. When I load the cd-rom, it opens up in adobe acrobat reader window and it has on the upper right hand side TOOLS COMMENT SIGN . The doc's are highlighted in blue but I cant click on them because it either gives me this selection only; Seltct Tool, Marquee Zoom, Hand Tool. It will not allow me to just left click and print doc. Top menu has File, Edit, View, Window, Help and the usual zoom 100% or 150% . and the print icon is visable but it will prunt the the page not the specific document I want. It has convert files to PDF on line and convert files to Microsoft word online, sign in doc, So what is it that need to open the documents and just print?

    when user clos the document , it will check it in.
    the problem there is no sufficent sample code for, even was thinking to use Adobe Drive, but there is no Adobe Drive SDK for Flex.
    i used to fuse the sdk, but
    private function getFileByPath(sPath:String):Fileable {
    appStatus = ">> get File By Path";
    message = "";
    viewEnabled = false;

    appStatus = ">> getFileByPath : Success";
    viewEnabled = true;
    return oFileable;

    appStatus = ">> Check Out File";
    message = "";
    viewEnabled = false;
    var request:CheckoutRequest = new CheckoutRequest(session);
    request.object = doc;
    var oDocument:Document;
    request.execute(onSuccess, onError);

    oDocument = event.object ;
    appStatus = ">> Check Out File : Success";
    viewEnabled = true;
    return oDocument;

    Dear Seoras

                                            return null;
                                  var remoptePath:String =file.nativePath.substr(LOCAL_FILE_CACHE.nativePath.length);
                                  trace("resolveRemotePath [11] : "+ remoptePath);
                                  if(File.separator!="/") {
                                            //var pattern:RegExp = /(\/)/g;
                                            var pattern:RegExp = /(\\)/g;
                                            remoptePath =  remoptePath.replace(pattern ,"/");

  • How to open a local file from javascript in a jsp-page

    Hi
    I have created an iview from a PAR file. In the par file I have a jsp-page with some javascript code. From the javascript coe I want to open a new window with an Excel file.
    I have tried window.open("c:
    test.xls", "test_window"), but it doesn't seem to work. I have created a small HTML page locally with the same command and there a new window opens with the Excel file.
    If I change the local file path with an URL it also works.
    Any idea how to open a local file ?
    Thanks
    /Jakob

    Jacob,
    I'm not 100% (but 99,9%) and it has to do with security ristrictions of the browser not allowing to have local workstation interation from the web. This is ofcourse very dangerous if the browser would allow it... So therfore it is blocked. What if somone would point to a file/executable that formats your drive so for that reason it is not allowed to have web interaction with a local file. Only with Java Applets this is possible but still with many limitations, and what I remember Google Gears and Adobe Air do have some limited web 2 local file interaction... So best and most simple solution you are left with is pointing to a url instead of a file on a c:\ drive.
    PS The reason why it works when you start the html from your local PC has todo with the fact that the browser detects that the html is not running in the web at that moment therefor allowing the access.
    Cheers,
    Benjamin Houttuin

  • Open adobe reader file - read option - instead of open

      When I try to open a adobe reader file by right clicking it I get " read" instead of "open " file.
    please see attached file for an example of what I mean.
    In the attahed printed screen file it says open - this is OK.
    but in my other pc I have only "read" not open.
    your help would be appreciated
    Thanks
    Omer

    If I press Read the file opens OK with no problem.
    The problem is that if I try to open the same file from a third party program it does not open .
    The file looks like it does know what windows extension it is supposed to be.
    I will try to post a screen shot from the other PC

  • How to open Adobe Reader DC with Tools Closed

    I do NOT like Adobe Reader opening with the right column expanded.
    Also in all previous versions I could save my login for protected pdf files and when I open them back up they require a login again.  This is NOT how I want to work with Adobe Reader.
    Adobe Reader XI was so much better.

    Before the DC version we were able to save our passwords from University of Phoenix and when opening the document saved to our computer it would unlock automatically.  This new version DC will not allow this even when you say Yes.
    The Right Column in previous versions would allow to disable until requested to appear this version it opens regardless.
    Just my opinion here  Adobe Failed at customer satisfaction on this UPGRADE.
    Regards a unhappy Adobe user.

  • How to open/convert RAW- files from new CANON 5D Mk III in LR 3 and CS 5?

    Hallo!
    The RAW- files from my new CANON 5D Mk III are not convertible into LR 3 and CS 5.
    What is the reason and how to solve the problem?

    The work around of converting the CR2 to dng either with the dng converter or ACR 6.7 will allow working in LR and CS5 but not with the latest raw conversion engine from Adobe i.e PV 2012.
    Remember to keep a copy of the CR2 files if you wish to utilize the Canon software.
