PDF Documents with Functional Buttons - Works for IE and FireFox but not for Chrome and Safari

To all,
Good morning.  Our institution developed a PDF document with functional buttons for printing and e-mailing.  When the document is viewed via Internet Explorer and Firefox, the functional buttons work as expected.  However if the document is viewed via Chrome and Safari, the functional buttons do not work.  The workaround for those who are using Chrome and Safari, the PDF document needs to be saved to their local drive before the functional buttons work.
Has anyone experienced this issue before?  If yes, what was your solution other than the workaround.
Thanks.

  • V 3.2 v2 now has problems with layouts, displays images fine in IE10, Firefox but not in Chrome...

    Images placed in a page are not displaying in the same places in the design view on the rendered Chrome page, they are perfect in IE 10 and Firefox but not chrome / safari (ipad)?
    In other words I cant get all the browsers to render the same, in order to get one set to work I have to position images one way and then they dont work in the other browsers? it doesnt make much sense but i cant seem to figure it out and need urgent help!
    see here: http://www.nalpeiron.com/--analytics-solutions-by-role--.html
    this has been setup to work with chrome, but in the design view you have to place the images in totally wrong places to get them to show correctly....
    if you review in ie/firefox you can see the problem!
    Ideas?

    Every browser will potentially line break the same text with the same formatting differently due to subtle differences in the text layout engines between browsers, so the inline graphic approach is generally the best approach for achieving completely reliable results.
    The reason the difference was so dramatic between IE or Firefox versus Chrome or Safari is that Chrome and Safari are based on Webkit and Webkit rounds percentage leading to a whole pixel value where as IE and Firefox interpret percentage leading as a fractional pixel amount, if necessary. This means line spacing for text with leading that's specified as a percentage will be substantially different between IE/Firefox and Chrome/Safari. You can avoid this by entering a pixel value (i.e. "14 px" for leading in the Control Strip or Text panel in Muse.

  • Home sharing is working fine for musics and videos but not for apps. What is wrong?

    Home sharing is working fine for musics and videos but not for apps. What is wrong?

    i had the same issue as everyone here after upgrading to itunes 10.x.  vista could see xp home share.  ipod touch could see xp home share.
    neither could see vista home share.
    after several hours of authorizing de-authorizing, rebooting router etc, i knew it had to be a firewall thingy with vista as xp was working fine
    i went to this article http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2553 and followed the instructions.  itunes was already in my vista exception list.  on a hunch i deleted the itunes exception and followed the steps to add it again and boom it worked!! i could now see my vista machine from my ipod touch immediately.
    something must have screwed up the firewall exception on the upgrade to itunes 10.x
    it worked for me, i hope this helps others

  • Css position:fixed works on mozilla 21/IE10 but not in chrome ?

    Hello guys,
         I want to stick in position  a rectangle or photo while scrolling browser.
    I am using    sym.$("Rectangle3").css({"position":"fixed"});
    This works fine in Mozilla and IE10 but not in chrome (Version 27.0.1453.116 m)
    Anyone to help please?
    Thanks in advance.

    Antony,
    I will defer to what Sarah said.
    In the future if you needed to add browser prefixes to correct differences which happen for a number of things like transform or shapes, etc..
    Or course this will not correct a bug which I was not aware of in this particular case.
    Here is how to add browser prefixes:
    In this case to make an ellipse a circle because chrome did not recognize the ellipse. I added Opera prefix to show you the syntax.
    sym.$('Ellipse').css({
              '-webkit-border-radius': '50%',
              '-o-border-radius': '50%',
              'border-radius': '50%',
              'width': '35px',
              'height': '35px'
    Sometime the syntax is a little different. Just google the css to make sure.
    Here is another example for a Star Wars intro where I added browser prefixes for Explorer (-ms-), Chrome (-webkit-), and Firefox(-moz-).
    The code can be combined but I did not this time for this sample.
    Sample files here:
    https://www.box.com/s/bdu5c4lq67fkfy7blfhc
    // FF
    sym.$('gradient').css('background', '-moz-linear-gradient(top, rgba(0,0,0,1) 0%, transparent 100%)');
    sym.$('container').css('-moz-transform-origin', '50% 100%');
    sym.$('container').css('-moz-transform', 'perspective(250px) rotateX(25deg)');
    // Chrome and others
    sym.$('gradient').css('background', '-webkit-linear-gradient(top, rgba(0,0,0,1) 0%, transparent 100%)');
    sym.$('container').css('-webkit-transform-origin', '50% 100%');
    sym.$('container').css('-webkit-transform', 'perspective(250px) rotateX(25deg)');
    // Internet Explorer
    sym.$('gradient').css('background', '-ms-linear-gradient(top, rgba(0,0,0,1) 0%, transparent 100%)');
    sym.$('container').css('-ms-transform-origin', '50% 100%');
    sym.$('container').css('-ms-transform', 'perspective(250px) rotateX(25deg)');

  • Buttons work in DVD Studio Pro, but not in DVD Player. Why?

    I recently upgraded I movie I made to Dual layer disk. I had already built one for a standard 4.7 dvd but now I was putting on a director's commentary so I need more space. So I opened up the original DVD Studio Pro project, thats worked fine for over a year, then saved it as "director's commentary", then simply changed the settings for a Dual Layer. In DSP the buttons on the first menu work fine. But when I build it and open it up in DVD Player the buttons dont activate. Even when you roll over them there is nothing there.
    Whats happening?

    You can find information on Reader Extensions on the developer center: http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/livecycle/readerextensions/devcenter.html
    For help with the buttons to navigate, go into Designer help and search for "Attaching a database script to a button" (without the quotes) and this should provide you with the information that you need.
    Michael, is this where you found your information the first time?

    changed "database link db1" to "database link db2" per comments by SB
    Edited by: enquad on Apr 12, 2013 3:00 PM
    Changed "user" to "OS user" in subject for clarity

    enquad wrote:
    Sorry gentlemen and SB, but my question is still not answered. It is a new question, which I have not found answered elsewhere.
    To summarize:
    SB97025 informs me that db1 is not a database link, but I never said that it was. It is the second database (anonymized as "db2") that is connected to through the database link "db2.mycompany.net".
    SB97025 also wonders intriguingly if my DBA and I are we really connecting to the same database when we each connect to user1 on db1. Perhaps the Oracle server and my PC have TNSNAMES.ORA files that lead us to different databases for the same TNS alias? I do not believe this is the case, because my DBA created that user1 and that database link in the db1 database specifically for the purpose of doing this test and I see that same link when I connect to user1 on db1. Unless my DBA is spoofing me by creating user1 in two different databases - only one of which contains a working dblink named db2.mycompany.net - just for the purpose of throwing me off, I would have to conclude that he and I are actually connecting to the same database.There is no reason to "believe" (or not) that "this is the case". The entire point of SB's comment on that was to get you to verify. President Reagan famously said "trust but verify". He never worked as a DBA. I say "don't trust, just verify".
    Obviously something is different. And at this point the most likely and easiest to confirm is that you and your DBA really are connecting to the same database, on the same host server, using the same link. And at this point all we really have is to trust your DBAs statement.
    >
    Ed Stevens reminds me that db1 is acting as a client to db2 and so the solutions to the ORA-12154 are the same as for any client connection as listed on his blog (which I had already read), none of which solve my problem. Rembember, the DBA can use the database link, so by whatever means the TNS lookup is happening when he uses it, the correct connection description is being found. The question is not "why does this stinkin' database link not work"? It does work for the DBA.
    Pierre wants to make sure I know that it is the Oracle server's TNSNAMES file that is the important thing, not my client's TNSNAMES file, which is true but not relevant to my problem and I was never so naive. He also says that I could try creating a database link by including the full TNS entry in the USING string, which does work as I had already mentioned in my original post.
    Amar asks if my DBA can: sqlplus username/password@db2.
    The answer is yes. The dba can use SQL*Plus to connect to db2 from the server hosting db1 and can connect to db1 from the server hosting db2. There is almost nothing my DBA cannot do.
    None of the posters addressed the key information in my post, which was the different result my DBA and I get when using the same database link in the same schema on the same database. That AND the fact that my DBA is logged on to Linux Oracle serve as user "oracle" and I am logged in to my PC. Why should it matter to a database link which computer is running SQL*Plus or who the OS user is?
    Also the GLOBAL_NAMES parameter is set to FALSE.

  • Exchange Sync works for Mail, Calendar, Contacts - but not for Notes

    Hi,
    I am using an iPhone 3G (16GB). The sync with my account on an Exchange Server (I think 2003) is working just great. Mail, Calendar, Contacts are all in snyc, but there seems to be no way of synchronising the Notes between the iPhone native app and the Exchange Notes.
    Is there any way to make that happen?

    Notes syncing is only supported via USB/iTunes sync with Outlook (Windows) or Mail (Mac), not via Exchange. So, there is no way to sync the native iPhone Notes app with your notes on Exchange. There are 3rd party apps that can access your Exchange notes, though.

  • Change pointer triggers for one order type but not for other with LOIPRO

    Hi all,
    We have old production order type ZP01 since last 3 years. Idoc LOIPRO are triggered properly. Now we introduced new production order type ZP02, but idocs are not triggereing for these prod. orders. They both are production orders with different order types but same message type LOIPRO
    I noticed that change pointers are not getting written to CDHDR and CDPOS for this new order type. For old order type they are getting written to CDHDR/CDPOS. Does any one know where is the issue in config.
    Currently BD52 contains following entries for LOIPRO
    ORDER-AFKO-AUFNR
    ORDER-AFKO-KEY.
    Thanks in advance

    Anyone with an idea.
    The project went live by using RCCLORD or RCCLTRAN, but still the same orders keep triggering. How do we restrict the already processed production orders.

  • Added a spry menu bar and site works in firefox but not in chrome or IE.  Please help

    Hello,
    I'm a photographer by trade and have only picked up enough web design knowledge  in order to build a website that isn't distracting to my photographs and is simple to update and mantain.  Please breakdown any answers to my questions in very simple terms.
    To start off here is a link to my site for reference.  www.cechternach.com
    1.  My Biggest problem right now is that my site works in firefox but appears as a blank white page in chrome and in IE it only shows my background color.
         I'm assuming that this has something to do with the spry menu bar I added.  The galleries, banner, and footer were all part of a previous version of this website that didn't use the menu bar.  I actually used png's exported from an illustrator as buttons.  I've been wrestling with this menu bar for a few days now.  I had an issue with the menubar forcing down the gallery below it.  that was fixed by changing a position value from relative  to absolute in the menubar css.  Then I couldn't see the submenu over the galleries.  I think I fixed that with a wmode change but I"m not sure if I did that right.  I believe i needed to change that in the object and embed part of the code.  One spot for certain browsers and the other spot for other browsers.  I was a little confused on this because i also read that i needed to change the wmode in the javascript file in dreamweaver cs4 which is what i'm using.  Whatever wmode I changed it seemed to work in firefox.  The submenu background was showing up transparent but i fixed that in the menubar css.
    2.  I would like the submenu's to have a semi transparent blurred background effect.  Is this possible with a spry menu bar?
    3.  How do I center my text in the submenu?
    4.  My menu bar buttons should be the same font as my name in my banner.  It looks fine on my computer that has that font loaded but on other computers I was testing the site on the menubar buttons show up as a default font.  How can i fix this?
    5.  Is there any way to get rid of the grey lines that show up around my slideshow pro galleries and menu bar buttons when they are clicked?
    The last four questions aren't as important as the first one.  I may be upsetting the flow of the forum as well.  Please let me know if I'm not following procedure with any of my questions.  Feel free to point out any other problems you see with my page.  I'm trying to learn this as I go.  Thanks in advance.

    Spry widgets, which includes the SpryMenuBar, in their original state do not pose any problem in any browser!
    Widgets contain two parts
    JavaScript which drives the widget
    CSS which styles the widget to individual tastes
    The most common reason for a widget to misbehave especially in IE is because the inexperienced web developer has upset the delicate balance of the CSS. I say delicate, because in the original, great care has been taken by the Spry team to ensure cross browser compatibility.
    There are other reasons why a whole page can misbehave. In these cases, the culprit should be sought outside of the Spry framework.
    When trouble shooting, I would first of all comment out all of the Spry Spry parts and test the page in IE. If it does work after that, then yes come back here and we will have a look at the SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css for you.
    If it doesn't work after disabling Spry, then have a look at the coding and the CSS for your page and fix that.
    I hope this helps.

  • Problem w/"combo boxes" cause the user to double click for the dropdown menu, but not for everyone.

    I have created a form with Adobe Acrobad Pro 9.
    There are a few "drop-down" boxes for people to choose options from.  I created them with the "Combo box" option.  They work perfectly fine on my laptop (Lenovo T500 windows 7, with all updates up to date.)  I sent the file to another exact same computer and that's when the problem came up.  When you click on the drop-down, the list will quickly appear and then disappear.  Then if you click it again it will stay open so you can choose your option.  However this only happens on "some" computers but not everyone's.  I emailed the exact same form out to other people in my office and they do not have any problems with the form.  There is no need to double click the drop down, it will just open up properly for them.
    Has anyone come across this? And if so, is there maybe a setting on these specific laptops that is preventing the "combo box" to not work properly?  I need to use this specific laptop as a "Kiosk" like a "check out" station for users to fill out the form to check out equipment.  I will be running in Reader so people can not make changes to the form.  (both the Acrobat Pro 9 version and the (most up to date) Reader version of the PDF form does the same "double-click" problem)  I need a date drop down and an equipment type drop down.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated !
    Thanks !

    I've got this kind of problem with a form of mine (designed with LCD) :
    - combo boxes with font-color changing event handlers on :enter
    - on Acrobat 9 Pro : no problem
    - on Reader 8.3 :
          - first click seems to execute the event handler but stops the combo's opening
          - second click does open the combo
    Do you have event handlers on combo:enter ?
    Could the difference between comps where it works and comps where it doesn't be Acrobat's version ?

  • Exported document looks washed out in firefox but ok in chrome and IE

    Hi there. I'm pretty new with indesign so I'm having a little trouble with the exported pdf. I hope you can help.
    I'm doing the layout of a newsletter, which will be uploaded for web viewing. After I exported, it looks the way I intended. But when I uploaded it, the Firefox viewer makes it look like it went through an overused hipster filter. I checked in Chrome and IE and it looks the same as the exported document.
    Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/yRgsTE5.jpg
    Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
    I really hope you can help. Thanks.

    There's probably nothing you can do. There is no color management on the web. And there are a number of different PDF readers which "do their own thing" when it comes to how they display PDF files.
    The only way you could guarantee similar preview would be if you had your readers view the PDF in Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat which do have color management controls.

  • HTML snippet works on Firefox but not in IE or Safari

    First off, I'm a newbie.
    I just created a webcam site in iWeb at www.blackcatcam.com. I used the following HTML snippet to show the webcam image;
    http://home.comcast.net/~ebizboy/Webcam.jpg />
    It is supposed to go get a constantly updated webcam image from the server and display it on the web site.
    The entire page works fine using Firefox but the webcam image does not show up using Safari and the HTML snippet itself shows up when accessing the page from IE.
    Any suggestions?
    Regards,
    Gatto Nero

    Yikes. Now I'm even more confused. I am using Safari Version 4.0.3. I can see the links on the right and the ads on the left just fine, but still no webcam image. Would you mind clicking on the link for the Live View and let me know if that works for you? I found out that the gadget I used for that won't work with IE but it works fine for me with Safari and Firefox.
