Acrobat 6.0.6

I just loaded my copy of acrobat 6.0.6 onto a new computer running windows 7home premium, 64 bit, and when I try to open acrobat I get a window telling me the programs are incompatable and to contact Adobe. Well it's Saturday and no one is home! What do I have to do to get me running again?

You likely also bought a 64-bit machine. You may be able to get Acrobat and Distiller to work in a compatibility mode. However, the print driver and AcroTray will likely fail. You can get around that (assuming Acrobat and Distiller start working) by installing another PS printer, changing the name to Adobe PDF, and setting the port to file. If this all succeeds, then you can print to that printer which will be a PS file (maybe with a PRN extension). The PS file can then be opened in Distiller to create a PDF.
AA 6 is considered ancient and obsolete in computer time. As for XP, MS is not longer supporting it, but that does not mean it will not work. Every version of WIndows that has been released has made some programs obsolete. That is typical with updates of operating systems. Actually, purchasing the new version would be a lot better product and work with newer systems. The price is a bit steep for individuals, so I understand your choice to use a 3rd party product. However, you will not have all the same features available in those products.
I am not surprised if you don't have to upgrade OFFICE and many other programs as well. Good luck.

  • Filename in XFDF - Acrobat 9?

    While submitting the PDF form field data, do we have to manually add the 'f href' element in the XFDF when running on Acrobat 9? Or, is it the acrobat javascript method 'submitForm' which generates the XFDF with field names and 'f href' ?
    Please let me know asap. In my project, its observed that 'f href' element (i.e. filename) is missing in the XFDF retrieved in Acrobat 9.
    Thanks.

    Just revisiting on this topic and hoping for some assistance.
    We are currently generating .xfdf xml form files and they are using <f href=filename.pdf>
    This works fine when superimposing the data in the form onto PDF's using Adobe Reader 8 and lower but with version 9, when the client opens the .xfdf file the .pdf file for the form does not load for the aforementioned reason in the previous posts and therefore the user cannot view the document with the XML data superimposed on the PDF.
    I would prefer not to have to roll users back to Adobe Reader version 8 to make these forms work so I was wondering, can the code eg. <f href=filename.pdf> be changed to be compatible with Adobe Reader 9 as well as backwards compatible with versions 8 and lower and so forth. If this can be done, how does the link need to be coded?
    Thanks in advance

  • Deploying only Acrobat XI Pro CC package w/ Enterprise Serial # - Still getting "Sign In Required"

    Downloaded Creative Cloud Packager to create a serialized package of only Acrobat XI Pro.  I further customize the deployment via Adobe Customization Wizard XI, but did not re-enter the serial number (as suggested).  I am able to deploy from the Exceptions folder with the following cmd, msiexec /i "%inst%AcroPro.msi" PATCH="%inst%Updates\AcrobatUpd11006.msp" TRANSFORMS="%inst%Transforms\en_US.mst" /qn.  Upon launching Acrobat, I receive the a pop-up message, "Sign In Required.  Siging in with an Adobe ID and registering Creative Cloud Membership Enterprise is required within 32767 days otherwise it will stop working."  I don't understand why the serial number and Adobe ID I enterred when packaging did not carry over.  Any insight would be appreciated.

  • How do you deploy adobe acrobat xi from creative cloud for enterprise?

    Hello,
         We purchased Creative Cloud Enterprise and our new supervisor wants adobe acrobat on all computers.  I downloaded the package through Creative Cloud and used the customization wizard to customize the msi in the exceptions folder just like the instructions said.  I followed the steps and deployed it out using Dell Kace.  When a user tries to open Acrobat, it tells them they have a trial version and they must register the product.  The instructions for the customization wizard said not to put the creative cloud serial number into the customization tool.  Is there something I'm missing with deploying adobe acrobat and creative cloud?
    Thanks,
    Michael

    I'm not a CC expert, but I think normally admins configure Acrobat and then deploy everything via the Creative Cloud Packager. Acrobat certainly needs to be licensed, so when you only have a CC license, it's best to deploy in a standard way so that Acrobat get serialized with the license you have.

  • Acrobat XI very sluggish on Yoga 3 Pro

    I have noticed that Adobe Acrobat XI is very sluggish on the Yoga 3 Pro. Specifically laggy when zooming in and out, panning, scrolling, and full screen. This is especially apparent with full screen and quite annoying in tablet mode. However, using the Microsoft Reader app with the same PDF files does NOT experience this lag.
    What I then discovered is that this has something to do with the Core M processor and it getting its power limited. If you change the power plan in OneKey Optimizer to High Performance (from Balanced, for example), Acrobat all of a sudden becomes quite snappy.
    When in tablet mode, if you simply want to read a PDF file (and use Acrobat), you do not need "high performance", so to extend the unfortunately bad battery life of the Yoga 3 Pro, you would want to put it in Balanced or Power Saver -- this should still be sufficient to read PDF files, but it is not the case with Acrobat XI unfortunately.
    I'm not sure which specific CPU limiting feature of the power plan is causing this issue in Acrobat, but I thought I would post this because I couldn't find anything on the internet on this issue.

  • I am trying to create a form in acrobat pro 8 and it can't be filled in in reader 9

    When I open the form in reader, it says it is a pdf/a file.and the form fields do not show up unless I go to edit/preferences in reader and tell it to never view documents in pfd/a mode.  I am putting this document on my website for users to fill out, and don't want them to have to do that.  How do I create the form that is not a pdf/a document?  I have been messing around with this for a day and have not been successfull.  I have an old document from last year that apparently is not a pdf/a document and it works fine.  I cannot make this year's document open correctly in reader 9.  http://www.houseofsweden.us/docs/DecNightsSignUps2009.pdf  This is a very simple form created from a word document.

    When originally creating the pdf, you would need to choose another pdf conversion setting. In Word if you use the pdf menu, change your settings there: Adobe PDF > Change Conversion Settings. I would use High Quality Print instead. If you use the File > Print method, click the Properties button next to the Adobe PDF printer selection.
    For your already created form, you can change the file so your users will not encounter issues. In Acrobat 9, which hopefully is similar in process to 8: Advanced > Preflight > Profile tab > PDF/A compliance > Remove PDF/A information.(You'll have to unsecure your form first).
    You can read about PDF/A files in the Help.

  • Preserving PDF links and actions created in Acrobat after editing in Illustrator

    I created an interactive PDF in Acrobat from an Illustrator file saved as a PDF.  It's basically an interactive prototype that simulates dropdown menus, highlighted selections and navigation between screens.  Using the Link Tool, I set layers to appear through the layer visibility action, and certain layers to toggle through javascript.  Since the prototype is evolving, however, I have to periodically make minor edits to it in Illustrator.  Once I make an edit and save the PDF again, when I open up the saved document in Acrobat, all the link tool actions are gone.  This is highly frustrating because most of the edits take just a minute or two in Illustrator, but I have to re-create all the links in Acrobat when I'm done, which takes a very long time.  How can I make minor edits in Illustrator while preserving the action elements I created in Acrobat?

    Well, that's a bummer.  It's so close to a feasible workflow for generating quick early-stage prototypes that you can continue to work on. 
    Thanks for the info.

  • Adding javascript to page open and page close in acrobat 8.1.2

    Reading the Acrobat Javascript Object Specification on page 22 it says that you can add javascript to the "page open" and "page close" events of a document.
    It then says that under the menu "Document -> Set page action" you can add scripts for those events
    I am using Acrobat 8.1.2 and under the document menu there is no "Set page action". And there is nowhere where I can find any "set page action" menu...
    whats the deal?
    How can i set the page open and page close events in acrobat professional 8.1.2?????????????

    - open the Navigation Panel 'Pages'
    - select the page and open the page properties
    - in the actions tab you can set the page actions

  • How do I transfer an Acrobat serial number from one adobe account to another?

    I've installed Adobe DC Pro on one of our user's computers. When it asked for an Adobe ID I entered the ID I used to purchase the serial number. Unfortunately now acrobat always starts on the new computer and displays my name instead of the end user name. So I'm wondering how to either transfer the serial number to the end user's adobe account, or alternatively re-associate the acrobat on the end user machine with the end user's own adobe account.

  • Form creation - what version of Acrobat do I need to achieve ONLY the following:

    I want to make customizable card templates which can be downloaded and allow my clinetelle to input text in a specific region, and then modify the font, color, and size. I would also like for them to be able to insert photos. I worked for Staples and then office depot, and both were somehow in possession of these tools which would allow clints to make use of quick, easy christmas card templates as well as calendars. I need this to be something that can be downloaded and then customized at home, and while I know that what I really want to do can be done in Word, it takes a substantial amount of effort to make a walkthrough for that, and I simply do not have the patience to fight with the program. Please recommend me the most basic necessary software to perform these functions, as the cards will be free to download, and as such I would prefer to not spend a fortune just for a very small task which I will perform perhaps monthly. uch appreciated.
    Also, any tips, or advice would be much appreciated.
    Thank you for your time.

    Any version of Acrobat will do for the fields.
    However, the photos are going to be a problem. It will only be possible to achieve in Reader if the users have the photos in PDF format, AND if they have the latest version of Reader (XI).

  • Acrobat Pro 7.1.0: Why don't my preferences save?

    I'm using Acrobat Professional 7.1.0 on Windows Vista 32, lots of disk space, no error messages, etc.
    I'm trying to make some changes to the application preferences: I want the default page display to be continuous, for example. When I exit the application and then re-start it, the changes to the preferences do not persist; they're back to whatever they were before I changed them.
    Does anyone know a solution to this problem?

    Thanks, Bill, but I'm talking about the application preferences (Edit->Preferences), which are accessible and changeable even when there is no open PDF file.
    Let me give an example: in preferences, there is a Startup category that includes the option "Display splash screen." That's clearly an application preference, not a preference associated with a particular file. If I check the box to display the splash screen at startup, then click OK, then go back into preferences, my selection is still there: there's still a check mark next to "Display splash screen" So far, so good.
    I then exit Acrobat and start it up again. The application preferences now show that "Display splash screen" is UNchecked. It didn't save the change I made. IT DID, HOWEVER, remember that when I was last in the application preferences, I was in the Startup category, because that's the category it selects by default. If I choose a different category, say Page Display, exit and then re-start Acrobat, it defaults to the Page Display category but doesn't register any of the changes I made.
    So I'm wondering why my changes to the application preferences aren't sticking. Any other ideas? Is this a bug? An installation problem? It seems to work just fine in all other respects.

    Acrobat 7 will not work with MS Office 2010. If you have MS Office 2010, you can not use any Acrobat product reliably to create PDFs. You will have to wait for the next version of Acrobat.

  • Acrobat Scanning with CM1312nfi MFP. Can't change from legal size paper

    I've had the same problem with mulitple versions of Adobe Acrobat, but most recenlty with version XI Standad.
    All my scans using the Acobat interface result in legal size scans using the ADF, instead of letter size.   When I try to "Configure Preset"  the Paper Size is set to "Automatic" and there are no other options available in the drop down box.
    I have to do a custom scan and manually select the paper size using the HP interface, but I would like to use the Acrobat interface instead due to the volume of scans I perform.
    In Acrobat the Scanner is identified as "WIA- HP CLJ CM1312 Scan".   I am running Windows 8.1 64 bit.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers and Acrobat, but the problem persists.
    All help appreciated.  Thanks.

    Not sure if this is the same problem I'm having. I have a HP C5180, and when I go to print I get all the necessary options (by dropping down the traingle as advised above), and all's great..... apart from the Source tray is always set to Main Tray instead of the Photo.
    I can change it each time I print, but it won't stay defaulted to Photo Tray even when I save or 'Save as' a new Preset. I have tried to overwrite the default ones, but no go, and also saved as a new Preset, but it still doesn't come up as the default selection next time I go in to print.
    Sounds easy enough to cope with I know, but I've set it up for a 84 year old to print from and I don't expect she'll manage to do this change every time.
