PDF Viewer zooms toolbar on Ctrl-Shift-=

In the builtin PDF viewer, Ctrl-"-" and Ctrl-"=" are used for zooming. However Ctrl-Shift-"=" seems to be interpreted by firefox and zoomes the page it displays as a whole, including the PDF toolbar.
The variants without shift work as expected also change the zoom value displayed in the PDF toolbar, the variant with shift does not.
This is somewhat annoying, it would be great if the behaviour could be consistent.

I've never noticed the Ctrl+Shift variants. Are these a UI convention on Linux?
I'm not sure how to submit a suggestion for the PDF viewer. Fixing the Ctrl+ variants was done in the underlying project, which has an issues list here: [https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/issues]. But it might be that Mozilla can plug the gap until that gets addressed there.
''Edit: This isn't actually on the issues list yet as far as I can tell.''

Advanced Search (Ctrl+Shift+F) broken with Protected View = All Files Adobe Customization Wizard XI

I've updated Adobe Reader to version 11.0.09 and it was discovered that the Advanced Search (Ctrl+Shift+F) reports back errors on all words searched inside PDF document/
Reproduce:
1. Use Adobe Customization Wizard XI
2. Create a MST file for the Base Adobe Reader 11.0.0 MSI (AdbeRdr11000_en_US.msi)
3. Under Security -> Protected View -> (Set to ALL FILES)
4. Save MST file
5. Install Adobe Reader XI using created MST File and then Install AdbeRdrUpd11009.msp
6. Open any PDF document and search for words using advanced search: (Ctrl+Shift+F) All searches return errors unable to display search.
The error can be reproduced and only occurs on Adobe Reader 11.0.09. None of the previous patches of Adobe had this issue.
The fix actually requires to remove and re-install Adobe Reader but with Protected View=OFF
Please can you confirm bug and report any solution or workaround so that Advanced Search works with Reader 11.0.09?
Thanks

I tried to check at my end and it works fine at my end.

Activating Toolbars in Preview PDF view

By default the Acrobat toolbars are disabled in the Preview PDF view. How do I turn the toolbars on?
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply, radzmar. The Esc key doesn't show the toolbars for me, though.
In Designer 7 there was a button to click to show the toolbars but I can't find it's equivalent in 8.2.

Ctrl+Shift+W No longer fits to view

Ctrl+Shift+w no longer fits the current drawing to view. Ctrl+w (fit to view shortcut before 2010) is still close window.
Keyboard keys are definitely working, windows update doesn't show any recently installed updates to Visio.

Hi Sir,
I need more information about the issue to troubleshoot.
Did your machines in a work group or domain environment ? Because you said, you and your colleagues all encountered the issue, please give me the update list which had upgrade before the issue happened. I'll check the updates
if they were included some fix about Visio to remove the keyboard shortcut association.
Did Visio 2010 lost the only one keyboard shortcut in Visio 2010? Please refer to the
link and try the other keyboard shortcut. Did you had be installed some programs recently? If only the "Ctrl+Shift+W " lost, it may be the third-party programs and Visio 2010 keyboard shortcut conflict.
Had you repair Visio from control panel| programs

Settings in Safari's PDF viewer?

I love Safari's PDF viewer because it's so fast and easy. BUT is there any way to magnify (zoom in) once the file is displayed?
Note: Safari's "increase/decrease font size" buttons are understandably disabled when a PDF file is displayed.
iMac (2.0 GHz G5) & PowerBook (1.5 GHz G4) Mac OS X (10.4.2)

I use the PDF Browser Plugin which has its own toolbar which includes the ability to zoom in or out of a pdf document. Although there is a price listed for the plugin, it is free for personal and educational use.

Firefox 29 button is ctrl + Shift + B. Want it to be ctrl + B

The show bookmarks button no longer opens up view bookmarks sidebar (ctrl + B). Now it is show bookmarks (ctrl + Shift + B) which opens a separate window. I want it to be the sidebar without having to do ctrl + B. Is there a way to changes this?
Thanks,
Jeff

Ctrl+B should still open the bookmarks sidebar like it did in previous Firefox versions.
Ctrl+Shift+B opens the Bookmarks Manager (Library)
You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.
*Classic Theme Restorer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/
*You can check out the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.
*You can find extra toolbar buttons and more toolbar settings in Customize (3-bar Firefox menu button > Customize)

PDF View "Render document failed"

I've done quite a bit of looking around, and can't seem to find any fix for preventing a "render document failed" error message when opening certain pdfs (it looks like the discussion of this problem has really died down over the past year or so). I contacted HP's Palm support, but all they did was tell me that it was a known problem and that the engineering department was working on it. When I asked for possible work-arounds, they didn't have any (other than suggesting a pdf-to-word online converter, which does not allow my necessary zooming or landscape rotation). They also couldn't explain why the new TouchPad can open multiple pdfs at once (of different types- even pdfs with comic book graphics), but the Palm Pre Plus can't.
Or is there some trick to manipulating the pdf so that it will render? I've tried reducing the file size, flattening the images, removing metadata, making it compatible with all sorts of earlier versions of Acrobat, and making it a "read only" file, but nothing's seemed to work. A 28 MB file will open just fine and allow me to read ALL of it (along with zooming and the landscape rotation using PDF Redux), but another 8 MB file gives me that "Render document failed" error message. I'd appreciate any suggestions (or a fully functional pdf viewer on this "business" smartphone)!

I can't help, but raise another question...
Others, is there another pdf reader in the App Catalog that he could try?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

How can I set a DEFAULT zoom size at ctrl+++ that will hold while changing sites--even in private browsing?

How can I set a DEFAULT zoom size at ctrl+++ that will hold while changing sites--even in Private Browsing?
I'm just starting using Firefox but I won't be using it for long if I have to re-size the screen with every new location viewed.

Try this add-on

Whenever i press backspace, the same thing that happens when i press 'ctrl + shift + I' happens

Whenever i press backspace, it does the same the same thing as if i press 'ctrl + shift + i', and again the same thing as if i press 'toggle tools' from the web developer option under tools from the menu at the top of firefox. I'm not a developer, i don't need this console thingy, and wouldn't mind getting rid of it. I didn't install it on purpose, and i have no idea what made this start happening recently. It's getting INCREDIBLY annoying.

The backspace key shouldn't be opening the Console.

How to add a hand tool (grab the page and drag) function on Chrome and firefox pdf viewer?

To clarify, hand tool is a function for user click on the pdf and dragging around , that is used to replace the scroll bar navigating .
The problem is, by default the Chrome and firefox pdf viewer do not have that function and I would like allow the user to drag the page.
A workaround is to use a jquery plugin (grab to pan https://github.com/Rob--W/grab-to-pan.js in my case) with an embed object (pdf viewer). When I maximum the size of the pdf and user drag the embed object.
The problem I have encounter is
1) When using chrome/ firefox, the pdf content do not fit to the page but auto resize by default even I have set the adobe pdf open parameter , using iframe.
2) The jquery seems conflict with the firefox pdf viewer, it works smoothly on Chrome but not firefox.
Here is the source code, you may download the plugin from the link mention above and have a look. Don't forget to put a '1.pdf' along with the source file. Thanks

Starting PDF Viewer with file

Hi, I want use the PDF Viewer (CL_GUI_PDFVIEWER) to display a pdf file without having to open it manually.
The demo program SAP_PDF_VIEWER_DEMO works well. It opens the PDF Viewer in place, you can zoom and print the file. And you can disable buttons (we don't want the files to be saved and we don't want the user to display different files).
The problem is you have to select the file manually. If I user 'open_document' at the end of PBO to transmit the file while starting the program, the command is being ignored.
My question: Does anyone has a tip for me?
Thanks in advance yours Johannes

Hi
If you look with se24 in the class cl_gui_pdf_viewer and you look for method constructor. You will see this code:
method CONSTRUCTOR.
data: clsid(80) type c.
--- if it is Win32 ... ---
if activex = 'X'.
    clsid = 'PDF.PdfCtrl.1'.
- if it is PlatinGUI ...-
elseif javabean = 'X'.
    exit.
--- if it WebGUI ---
elseif www_active = 'X'.
    exit.
--- unknown GUI type
else.
    exit.
endif.
--- call the super-constructor ---
call method super->constructor
    exporting
      clsid             = clsid
      shellstyle        = shellstyle
      parent            = parent
Put your self a break point and change the value of
    clsid = 'PDF.PdfCtrl.1'.
to
    clsid = 'PDF.PdfCtrl.5'.
if your are lucky it will work afterwards.
perhaps you also can try
    clsid = 'PDF.PdfCtrl.6'.
but I am not sure if this will help you. With 5 it was working on my PC this activeX control was existing. If version 6 ever existed, I dont know.
If the debugging works then make a copy and change it for real.

Saving a Adobe Pdf so the toolbars are not viewable and as a jpg without blurry images.

Hi I have recently purchased a copy of Adobe Acrobat Pro 11 for the first time. I used to create all my documents in Word and then save as a PDF. When hen opening the PDF it would just show the PDF document without toolbars etc. Now when I open it I can see the toolbars (is that normal or is their a clean way I can save this document to share with fellow workers? I don't want it to be editable so not worried about the toolbars etc.
When sharing this do they see the toolbars etc.? I don't know the right terms but I want it to look clean as in a book.

Thankyou for you help in advance this is driving me nuts.

Which software were you using previously to open the PDF file?
Also, could you post a screenshot of the previous and the current view of the document screen?

Cannot open pdf files with Firefox's built-in pdf viewer

This just started (I think) with Firefox 37.01. This is on Win7-X64. I cannot open pdf files with the Firefox built-in pdf viewer. If I click on the file or try to open it from within Firefox, it brings up a "opening filename.pdf" message. If I select the "Open with" radio button as 'Firefox (default),' it just keeps looping on this process; it never opens. In Tools => Options => Applications, Portable Document Format (PDF) is indicated as 'Preview in Firefox.' I've never had any other PDF viewer installed on this computer. I've tried disabling all plug-ins and extensions, but it still doesn't work. I searched for solutions but haven't found any for this specific issue.
Thanks for the help.

Hello,
Have you tried, to start Firefox in safemode you can do so by following these steps
'''If Firefox is open,''' you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
* Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
'''If Firefox is not running,''' you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
;[[Image:SafeMode-Fx35]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
