Webinar: "Multimedia in PDFs with FM-to-Acrobat TimeSavers + Multimedia Asst" (Feb 10)

"Multimedia in PDFs with FM-to-Acrobat TimeSavers + Multimedia
Assistant" Webinar: Tuesday, February 10, 2009 (10am-11am PST)
Learn how you can embed/link to audio or video files (filmed or
software demos) from PDFs created in FM, without the tedious work
of inserting the link/file and defining playback properties every
time the PDF is updated.
With Multimedia Assistant, you use hypertext markers to define
access (embed or link) to local/web-based multimedia files in all
formats supported by Acrobat/Reader, so that the defined features
are automatically present in the PDF file.

Applicable for FrameMaker/Windows (all versions)

I have learned that there may be an issue with upgrading to 7.0.7, selecting the "reboot later" option, and then trying to use Acrobat with 3D. The suggested procedure is to do the update and then select "reboot now" when asked. Upon rebooting your system, the correct plug-ins are copied into the running Acrobat directories and things should work properly. We will continue to investigate these types of issues with the updater, but I believe this procedure will help fix these types of problems.

Replace cover page of PDF with applescript in Acrobat

I tried replacing a cover page in a PDF document with the following code but got a "doesn’t understand the replace pages message." What am I not getting here? I'd like to fill a folder with new covers and have them wind up replacing the covers of PDF files, or page 1 with covers that have the same file name. This is my starting point.
tell application "Adobe Acrobat Pro"
set docPgToBe_replaced to "Macintosh HD:Users:don_feldman:Desktop:Switch_Chapter_ Covers:chapter PDF:9780071714921.pdf"
set SourceOfNewPage to "Macintosh HD:Users:don_feldman:Desktop:Switch_Chapter_ Covers:cover PDF:9780071714921.pdf"
replace pages docPgToBe_replaced over 1 from SourceOfNewPage starting with 1 number of pages 1
save docPgToBe_replaced
end tell

The initial view setting is the responsibility of the document author - if they have defined one you cannot override it.
There's an option to set a default pagination and zoom for when the PDF itself has no preference, but it makes no sense for that to allow for cover pages as Acrobat has no idea if one exists or not.

Cant open any old pdf with the adobe acrobat dc [Android]

I recently updated my adobe reader to adobe acrobat dc and since then I cannot open any old pdf files in my phone. The new ones I download open just fine, but the old ones have just disappeared. The only files I can see are those I have downloaded after updating the app and listed in the Recent page.
I tried open my old pdf files by clicking on the floating folder icon in the Recent page, which brings me to my downloads folder in my phone. After clicking on an old pdf file, a dialogue will open saying that adobe will create a local copy of the document. After I click continue, it will say that the file cannot be accessed, and ask me to check the location or the network (the pdf files were those the app listed on the downloads folder on my phone). I have also tried to open them from my phone's own download manager. It will first tell me the file cannot be found, in which I will redownload it, but then the app says that it can't be opened because it is not a valid pdf file. How can that be true when it opened just fine before I updated the app? All my old pdf files are also not detected automatically by the app, which was the one feature I loved so much about the old version of Adobe reader. What must I do to open my old pdf files that are in my phone?
my phone is a Samsung galaxy s4.

Are you trying to open the documents from the Downloads tab as shown below?
If that is the case, it is possible you are trying to open the files which were previously downloaded and no longer exist on your device. To open the files which actually exist on your device, you can go to the Internal Storage tab which exists below the Download tab. The Internal storage tab will show the folders available. Go to the downloads folder in the internal storage tab and then to the 'Adobe Reader' or 'Adobe Acrobat' folder and you can find the files there.
Thanks.

Because I know enough to be dangerous... I was trying to extend the two outside columns down.... Instead of just using faux columns which I have fixed since I posted the question.
The other link problem is the left sidebar links. When you go to the event photos page I have a repeat of the sidebar links that are on the newsletter page. I used named anchors on the newsletter page to link to the particular article. From the Event Photos page the links look like this:
<a href="1112Visions_Iss1.html/#puzzle" target="_self">[Puzzle]</a>
The problem I am having is that some of these go to the newsletter page and the anchor and some do not (I get an error message saying it can't find the page). To add to the problem is that when we choose say the President's Message, when it goes to the newsletter page and the correct anchor, the newsletter page is missing all the links to the graphics... the photos are missing the graphic for the faux columns is missing. It makes no sense. When I preview the newsletter page from Dreamweaver everything shows up fine.
I do not know if all of this is being caused because I haven't posted this stuff to the site or what. I've tried re-booting both the browser and Dreamweaver, dumping the cache and still the same nonsense.
Got any ideas?

After clean install cannot print to pdf with Acrobat 8 Pro

I recently had to do a clean install on my desktop computer. Is there some way I can print to pdf with my Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro, which was working fine prior to the clean install. I am aware Adobe no longer supports this version, but isn’t this program able to function without being updated? Want to print pdf files from websites and Microsoft office. Am running Windows 7 Ultimate OS.

Hi jadbe,
Windows 7 is not a tested platform for Acrobat 8.

How to print a PDF with multimedia content?

I have a 127 page PDF with flash files and other multimedia embedded. How do go about printing this to a laser printer?

Thank you Michael
My problem is, I need to print the document with the mm items. I work
in a print & copy shop, we must deal with whatever the customers send
us.
I actually stumbled around and found I could do it with the MultiMedia
Flash Tool, editing the poster options. It's a tedious process though,
and I'd like to find a way to set this for the whole PDF file at once.
If you know how to do this I'd appreciate the info.
Thanks again,
Mark

The Bookmark Panel to the left of the pdf is not displaying - I have checked everything (and double checked under preferences to ensure that under Documents > Open Settings > Restore last view settings when reopening documents is Not checked.)
Have reinstalled Acrobat and still am having issues. The only thing I did was open AcrobatLive and converted a doc to a fillable form - I am getting error messages with that now as well.

What is the issue? When printing a 30x42 drawing PDF with 5 pages. The first drawing prints properly, but none of th eothers do. IF I print each separately, by selecting "current page" they print fine. Oh this is for Acrobat XI Standard.

RE Acrobat XI Standard. When printing a 30x42 Drawing PDF with more than 1 page only the first page prints properly the rest are not the proper size or centered. Did I miss a setting? For now I can work around it by printing each page using the "Current Page" setting, but this delays me when there is more than 20 pages etc..

Adobe Acrobat XI pro version, Windows 7, running on iMac parallels, converting pdf to a pdf with reduced size is not possible, error: error in converting the file! What to do? Its a bit annoying not to be able to store pdf files in reduced size, any idea?

Hi Jorg ,
Are you trying to reduce the file size with the "Reduced size PDF" in the save as other option.
Give it a try if you haven't done it prior.
Open that PDF>File>Save as Other>Reduced size PDF.
If possible ,please share the snapshot of the error message with us so that we can have a look in order to assist you further.
