I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard version in Windows 8.1 and when I try to create a .pdf file, I receive the following error message "Acrobat could not open "file name.log" because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged. To create a PDF document, go to the source application then print the document to .pdf" I am going to the source application and printing the document to .pdf yet it's saving the file as a .log file. After reinstalling the software, I initially didn't encounter this problem but on my second and third attempts to convert files to .pdf format, this error message reappeared. How do I resolve this problem?

There is no key because that is an important dialog. Why would you want it to go away?

In adobe Acrobat X pro, in edit--preferences-identity, it introduces my name which then is on all documents. I want my name to be removed. What do I have to do?

Is this in the signature appearance? If so you can customize signature appearance so that it contains only items that you want. In Acrobat X you do that in Edit->Preferences->Security, "New" in the "Appearances" section.

Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Standard - PDF Printer suppress file name prompt

Hi,
We are currently developing a product for Autodesk Revit with regards to drawing generation/export. Revit does not have an inbuilt PDF writer. As such most users either use free PDF Printers or Adobe Acrobat Standard.
We have managed to automate the naming of files using some of the free PDF printers, and suppress the file save as name prompt for each sheet in a set of prints.
We'd also like to add support for Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Standard. Is this possible through the Acrobat API?
Any prompt help would be greatly appreciated as we are keen to get our product out to market very soon!
Thanks.

Thanks. That's all I needed for now. Our developer will take a look when he comes to doing that section of the product.
Cheers.

Adobe Acrobat Pro cannot find moved files or files with edited names

Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1 cannot find recent files or files with edited names.
For instance, if a PDF file is moved in the hard disk from one foder to another, Acrobat cannot find it when trying to open it via "File - Open Recent File".
Likewise, if the name of the file is changed in the Finder.
Similarly, if a PDF file is open, it is marked with the yellow fluorescent marker of Acrobat, its name is then changed in the Finder and later on you try to save it, Acrobat says that it cannot find such file.
Yet, applications like Microsoft Word do not have any of the above problems. It would be great if Adobe could fix these serious productivity issues, which have plagued Acrobat for many years now.
How to send such feedback to Adobe?

We have adobe acrobat pro installed on our computer - we have changed the password - but it is still not giving us access to update our adobe reader. The name is showing as Marriner. Is this linked to our account?

What is your operating system?
To install/update Adobe Reader or Acrobat you need to supply your computer's Administrator password.

The printing of .pdf file from Project 2013 stops when the file name should be written. Project 2013 crashes. Does someone know what is wrong between Project 2013 and Adobe Acrobat 9?

The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year of 2013.
Acrobat 9 support of MS Project via PDFMaker stops with Office 2007.
For Office 2013 support you must use Acrobat XI (11.0.1) or newer.
A good to have reference:

Acrobat Pro and Standard DC are what are currently available for purchase.
Be well...

Adobe Acrobat DC Update Failed - wrong directory and names?

The CC applet downloads stuff and extracts it under TEMP. Then it complains that
E:\Temp\{AE78F010-4298-4465-BAE0-11B03C94ACAB}\Acrobat_11_0_0_CCM_MUI\Adobe CS7\payloads\AcrobatProfessional11.0-mul\
is not available.
Sure enough, there is no such directory. What was extracted is
E:\Temp\{453CF38A-AA1D-4D7F-8667-4D08A3A9D070}
and under there is a file with the correct name:
E:\Temp\{453CF38A-AA1D-4D7F-8667-4D08A3A9D070}\Acrobat_DC_Web_WWMUI\Adobe Acrobat\AcroPro.msi
But when I choose that, it claims that it's "not a valid installation package for the product Adobe Acrobat XI Pro".
If I run the MSI or the Setup.exe (in the same directory) directly, it asks for a Serial Number.

Hi JMDlugosz,
What version of Acrobat do you currently have on your system.. Acrobat XI or DC?
Moreover, What os version are you using? Have you have installed OS on E:\ drive?

Click on download of pdf opens adobe acrobat reader, but then clicking on file save-as does not give a dialog box to change the name or location where it is sav

Using Firefox 19.02
When I receive an email with an Excel, Word, or PDF file attachment, and I click download, firefox opens up the associated program for all my users, however when you click on file>save-as you are not presented with the dialog box to perform a save.
Excel and Word, no fix at all. Other than different browser or to click download, right click and go to folder, and then copy it out of there to another folder and open it.
Help, what is going on here????

BTW: using Adobe Acrobat Reader XI

Working with percentages in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro

So, I have a quick question. I am new to working with forms in acrobat, and am having a hard time figuring this part out. If anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it!
So I have a form that I've created in acrobat 9 pro. Below I have listed "individual 1:" and then "percentage allocation". The "percentage alloctions" are the different form fields for the percentages I've created. For each form field, I limited the values to not exceed 100%. I want individuals filling in this form to be able to fill in the percentages by each of the names without the TOTAL percentage value (of all three together) going over 100%. But...the trick is, I don't have a separate "Total" form field, there's no room for one. So is there a way to make it so the total of the three equals 100% without having a "total" form field?
individaul 1: percentage allocation
Individual 2: percentage allocation1
Individual 3: percentage allocation2
Please let me know if this makes sense,

Try67,
Thank you for sending me that reference guide, that will help. This is extremely frustrating for me. Thank you for the field visible or hidden script...I did end up finding those yesterday, just didn't know how to incorporate them to become visible if the total number is less than 100.
I ended up creating another text field right next to the total, and called it "statement". I marked this field as "hidden" through the general properties option in the adobe acrobat dialog box. And , I set up default text to read, "Total value must not be less than 100%". All of this, I did through the properties dialog box.
Individual 1: 30
Individual 2: 20
Individual 3: 10
Total: 60%             "statement" text field is here.
I figured what I could do is add another "if statement" to the validation script I put in for the "Total" text field I already had (below)..don't know if that was a stupid thing to do or not, but didn't know how else to do it. And where it says getField, I added the "statement" text field (the one that is hidden), thinking it would just get that field, but it's not working, what did I do wrong?
var total = Number(getField("individual1").value) + Number(getField("individual2").value) + Number(getField("individual3").value);
if (total>100) {
    app.alert("The total of the beneficiary fields must equal 100%");
    event.rc = false;
if (total<100) {
this.getField("statement").display = display.visible;

How do I edit a pdf document in adobe acrobat 9 extended?

I tried to edit a seachable pdf file in adobe acrobat 9
extended and it wont work. It just highlights the word but won't
let me delete it and change it. Any ideas? I thought I tired
everything.

Just as you cannot post on this forum without creating an
account, you will need to create an account on the Acrobat forums
in order to post.
The title of these forums clearly indicate they are for
Acrobat.com users and not users of the Acrobat desktop software.
You will also find a post outlining this as the first post in the
General Discussions forum, where I see you have also posted your
same question and gotten the same answers.
Do
you need support for Acrobat 9? or Acrobat.com?
Just as we would not provide answers for other Adobe products
such as InDesign or Illustrator on the Acrobat.com forums, we will
not be providing support for the Acrobat desktop product on these
forums as it is a separate product from Acrobat.com. I understand
that the names are similar so this can certainly cause you some
confusion, but you will need to proceed to the Acrobat forums in
order to ask questions about your Acrobat product. As you have been
told several times by several different support agents, these
forums are not related to the Acrobat desktop product and the
support agents on this forum do not support the Acrobat desktop
product on this forum. You have been directed to a forum where you
can ask for support on the product you are using, please continue
on to that forum. The support you are requesting cannot be
delivered on this forum.

3rd party signature handler set in Adobe Acrobat 9 Professional Extended gets reset

Hi All,
I have got a 3rd party digital signature creating plug-in i.e. MySign . I have set it inside 'Preference > Security > Advanced Preferences > Creation > Default Method to Use when Signing and Encrypting Documents' > MySign. If I restart Adobe Acrobat that setting is lost and the Adobe Default Security handler is then used.
I don't want to set handler manually every time I restart Adobe Acrobat. I have figured out that Adobe Acrobat is creating a registry entry named aPrivKey against that inside cHandlers BUT it gets removed on Adobe restart if I set MySign as the handler in the first place.
Similarly I want the same handler to verify signatures. For that I have set 'Preferences > Security > Advanced Preferences > Verification > Always use the default method (overrides the document-specified method)' along with the name of handler i.e MySign but on restart of Adobe, this is also gets reset.
Any idea how to set my handler as default to sign & verify without getting it reset?

Wahaj

Hi All,
I checked with Adobe X and this issue is not present there.

How to edit email preferences in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro

I have adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.
I would like to edit my email preferences so that when I create an email with the PDF as an attachment the name of the file will automatically also be the subject line of the email.
according to the help instructions, I should find this by: " open the Preferences dialog box, and under Categories, select Email Accounts."
In my version, "Email Accounts" does not appear in the categories list.
Where do I go to edit email preferences?

thank you for the suggestion, but I do not have a "Send Email" or "Submit" button available in my version. I have "Attach to email" option which automatically opens a new message in MS outlook (which I did not set up, it just started doing so automatically) without any further dialogue boxes or options.
Also, this is only for regular PDF files, not forms.

Photoshop CS6 PDFs will not open in Adobe Acrobat

Photoshop CS6; Windows 8
I've been using Photoshop to create reduced size PDFs. I've never had a problem with CS6 until the passed week. When I click to save for PDF no "error" dialogue box appears. However, when I try to open the new file in Adobe Acrobat reader a dialogue box says "Out of memory". Also, in my windows explorer, the file shows up as just a white box in the "Preview" side panel.
What am I not doing correctly all of a sudden? I've been sticking with the same preferences and Save settings since I first started using Photoshop CS5.

Have you updated Acrobat/ Adobe Reader recently? If so, this update may have introduced a compatibility issue in the globally shared Adobe PDF libraries. Either that or the update never went through properly and now you have a botched Acrobat. Do otehr PDFs from different sources open? If not, that would be a strong hint that you may need to reinstall/ repair Acrobat. It's also possible that you may have enabled sandboxing in the Acrobat Security prefs (or an update did) and thus Acrobat refuses to open certain files, if it can't determine their origins. One more thing that comes to mind: Have you tried saving the file twice in a row under the same name? Sometimes this stuff happens too fast (on SSD drives and such) and Windows doesn't update file security info in time (or your virus scanner can't keep up) and the resulting file is useless. Overwriting it with the same file would then yield correct results.
