Acrobat 8 and 9 slow scrolling in terminal server or RDP

Adobe, there have been several postings here regarding the painfully slow scrolling introduced in acrobat 8 and 9 when viewing a multi page PDF via terminal services or RDP. It is discussed here in your forums and other internet forums. Have you a solution? Have you investigated this? It occurs not via a lan connection but a wan connection. You need to access an RDP session via dsl to reproduce this.
This is not a Microsoft Terminal services or RDP problem. It is an Acrobat problem. This did not occur with Acrobat 7. Thus the current method of fixing is to not install versions of acrobat above 7 or downgrade your Acrobat 8 or 9 install to 7. Not a lasting solution.
Acrobat, I implore you to investigate this problem and offer a solution.

I had the slow scrolling problem, too. Just occurred out the blue on December 15, 2010. Here's the simplest solution:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Standard/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7d1b. w.html
This link deals with the auto scrolling function under "View" at the top of your Adobe Reader page. Basically, with your Adobe document open and watching "auto scrolling" (i.e. your pages scrolling very slowly), hit a number (1-9) to adjust the speed of scrolling. I picked 5.
Then, go to "View" again and select "Auto Scrolling" to turn off this function.
Now, re-open your Adobe Reader document (if closed) and you should be able to scroll at a "normal" and not slow pace.
Hope I'm right with this one.
Happy Holidays.

  • Adobe Reader 9 highlights text when scrolling in terminal server

    Running a terminal server with WIndow 2003.  Have Adobe 9 Reader installed.  When a pdf is opened, it will look correct.  However, when one uses the scroll bar on the right to see more of the document, text can be highlighted and change colors constantly when scrolling.
    Test it outside of terminal server and it works fine.  This issue did not happen with other versions of Reader.  I have attached two samples one clean and one highlighted. 
    Any help is appreciated

    Very cool. Thanks for the info!

    Okay. Here is what I found. These settings are changed\saved under the User settings in the registry. Here is the key the changes are made to:
    HKCU\Software\Adobe\Adobe Reader\9.0\Originals
    When "NONE" is selected from Adobe Reader - Edit - Preferences - Page Display - Rendering, three DWORD values are added to the above mentioned registry key. These are:
    Value Name - Value Data
    *bAntialiasText - 0
    benableDDR - 0
    iAntialiasThreshold - 12*
    I have added these lines to a login script that adds the necessary DWORD values to default the "Rendering" to NONE.
    *reg add "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals" /V bAntialiasText /T REG_DWORD /F /D 0
    reg add "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals" /V benableDDR /T REG_DWORD /F /D 0
    reg add "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals" /V iAntialiasThreshold /T REG_DWORD /F /D 12*

  • Users can only connect to RD farm website and cannot remote into terminal server , when connected via VPN

    Hello,
    I have a RD farm using 3 Win 2012 servers (1 broker and 2 session host), for internal use only, have not
    configured gateway for internet access.
    Users are able to connect to RD farm website and remote into terminal server, within office
    but can only connect to RD farm website and cannot remote into terminal server , when connected via VPN
    Its takes long time at securing connection and fails.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Thank you for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
    First of all I would suggest you to configure RD gateway role on your server and pass all the connection through it because it’s a best practice to use RD Gateway in RDS Farm. 
    Apart from this, if you are not using RD Gateway then you must check that you have successfully forwarded port 3389 for RDS to access via VPN. Also check that you have made configuration under IIS Manager to enable Forms Authentication. Please check
    this link.
    In addition, please refer beneath article for additional details.

  • Swing app in JDK6 continues to rendering slow in Windows Terminal Server

    Hi,
    Because Swing apps create interfaces internally and not using default OS APIs,
    when running into a Windows Terminal Server client, there is no way to optimize
    rendering. Windows Terminal Server and Linux FreeNX use a mechanism to send
    to client only commands to render the windows. But, because the way Swing works,
    not totally integrated to OS APIs, it's not possible for terminal servers to do this,
    and these servers render Swing like images, something like VNC do, very slower than.
    I have tested native apps and AWT apps, and the difference is very significant,
    something like 50-70% faster.
    Is there some project in Swing APIs or java.net open-sources to better this?

    We are also seeing this issue with a Compiere implementation. With 10 distributed sites across the US, our client wanted to use Windows Terminal Services to simplify the client desktop management of the Swing application.
    But performance is terrible...and screen painting issues a real problem. We are also on JDK5 still, so I'm discouraged to see that JDK6 doesn't appear to offer much improvement?
    Is there any project afoot to address this issue for installations using terminal services?
    Thanks,
    Peter

    Underlying the Mac OS is unix. By default when a file or folder is created, it is owned by that user. Other users don't have read/write permissions.
    I suggest reading a bit about unix permissions work.
    Unix assigns permissions for 3 categories for each file and folder. Self, group, and other (think of other like the permissions you would want a complete stranger to have).
    If all your users are members of the same group, you can use unix permissions to allow anyone in the group to have r/w permissions. You'd first need to define a group, and then assign all the users to that group.
    Lastly, you'd want to associate all the existing files you already have to that group.

  • Connecting to Terminal Server though RDP or CoRD?

    I am running 10.9.1.
    I have used RDP and CoRd successfully in the past prior to the latest OS upgrade.  Neither program will connect to the terminal server and no one can connect to my Mac using TeamViewer or any other remote in.
    Any ideas for troubleshooting?
    Thank you,
    Jeff

    Peter--
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    I actually don't know anything about this, but, like you, I'd expect you to need an application for the connection. Microsoft has a Remote Desktop Client for Mac that might well be what you're looking for. My guess would be that the .rdp file they gave you is probably the configuration for your network.

  • Acrobat 11.0.3 on terminal server 2008 R2

    I would like to find out why is it that i've got two instances of acrobat reader per person after installing version 11 on my terminal servers. Could this mean this version does not work so great with terminal servers?
    I used the RDS Install wizard, before someone says I should use it.
    Below is a screen shot of task manager to illustrate my situation.
    The terminal servers can have up to 50 people signing in at any given moment, and most of them use acrobat reader. I suggested installed v11 because I was under the impression that by using RDS install, application will run under one process and not multiple processes.
    The resources are limited as it is, now I have to battle with running twice the number of processes, this will be a nightmare of Freddie Kruger proportions...
    Can someone please advise me if there's a tweak that I should apply or if I should just let it be.

  • Slow loading and slow scrolling webpages.

    The pages in safari and Firefox are loading and scrolling down and up very slow, this was not like this yesterday or ever before, why is this?

    Check Activity Monitor (located in Applications -> Utilities) to see what other processes are using up the cpu. If both browsers are slow, it sounds like something else is using the cpu.

  • Problem with Adobe Pro and Reader on terminal server

    Hi,
    We have have a Terminal Server environment with Adobe Pro and Reader. We have security for Adobe Pro, so only certain user has access to Adobe Pro and all users has access to Adobe Reader.
    Some users receive many email with pdf's attachments in Outlook and need to print these attachments. They use the Outlook function to print email and attachment automatically. The users who has access to Adobe Pro can print attachment automatically with no problem.
    The problem is user who only have access to Adobe Reader. The user can't print attachment automatically with the email, only the email is printed. But, they can open attachment and print with Adobe Reader. But, it's impossible to open each attachment because there are so many.
    Thanks for your help.
    Jonathan

    Hi,
    So if I understand correctly,
    1. You have installed Acrobat Pro & Reader on a Terminal server.
    2. You have created a security group in your Active Directory Users & Computers for users having access to Acrobat
    3. You have set permissions on C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe and C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Acrotray.exe on the terminal server and provided access only to the security group created above.
    4. Users are accessing the Terminal server through RDWeb or connecting remotely through MSTSC (RDP) or using a .RDP file
    5. Users get emails with PDF attachments and print the mail directly without opening the PDF in Reader.
    Users check the box to print the attachments with the mail (see snapshot below):
    Some questions:
    1. What is the OS and platform (x86 or x64) of the terminal server?
    2. What are the versions of Acrobat & Reader on the terminal server?
    Thanks,
    Vinod

  • Flash player terminal server Nomachine very slow firefox 3.0.3

    Hello all,
    I have a serious problem which i cannot reolve by myself.
    When using firefox 3.0.3 and flash 9.0.124 and 10 in a
    terminal server environment with bandwidth limit to 320k firefox is
    slowing down because of the limit in bandwidth.
    The terminal server software caps the bandwidth usage because
    we run an controlled internet environment for our business safety
    and there are more then 3000 users logged in so the bandwith should
    be capped for performance reasons.
    When i play a flash movie from youtube or visiting sites like
    http://www.derbauer.de then the
    terminal server software just tels the software that it cannot
    process that much bandwidth so the application slows down.
    Now i have off course multiple options:
    1 disabling flash (not very nice to users)
    2 raise the limit (less users in our environment or more
    costs for extra hardware)
    3 asking Nomachine to drop frames are do something fancy with
    it.
    4 make an option in the flash plugin to say play this video
    with only 1 frame per second
    The last isn't very nice for people either but flash
    applications still work only viewing flash video's is not as good
    as people want.
    What are your thoughts on this?
    With kind regards
    William van de Velde

    EDIT: Oh, and you have very little free RAM and lots of Page Outs. So, in fact, first thing to do is to simply restart and only have FF open and test.
    First thing to do is to start FF in Safe Mode and see how it's working. This will temporarily disable all Add-ons and use a clean Profile. If it's running OK there, then it's time to look at your Add-ons to find a culprit, or start with a new clean Profile.
    Hold down the Option (alt) key when opening FF.
    You should also get rid of the steam clean thing. Those cleaning programs, if that's what this thing is, are dangerous and not needed.

  • FreeRadius and Cisco 2600 Terminal Server [IOS 12.1(3)T]

    Hi Cisco People
    I'm using FreeRadius 2 and Cisco 2600 Terminal server to coordinate access to cisco routers based on time‏ ranges.
    Basically we are an education/training environment where we have some students accessing the routers and switches for practise, terminal server are used to consolidate the console access, and these terminal servers authenticate the users through a Radius server (as shown in the following figure). Additionally, the students are categorized into few groups. We want to implement policy on the radius server so that only a certain group can access the resources in a given duration of time (the user should be dropped from the terminal when the subscribed time is reached and cannot access thereafter .)

    Right now I'm able to do the "hello-world" setup with the following users and clients.conf. On the terminal server side, aaa new-model is enabled on the cisco terminal server to communicate with this radius server.
    users
    =============
    cisco Auth-Type := System
      Service-Type = NAS-Prompt-User,
      cisco-avpair = "shell:priv-lvl=15"
    clients.conf
    ==============
    client 192.168.1.1 {
      secret = SECRET_KEY
      shortname = termserver
      nastype = cisco
    A typical transaction would be :
    Access-Request
    =======
            NAS-IP-Address = 192.168.1.1
            NAS-Port = 35
            NAS-Port-Type = Async
            User-Name = "cisco"
            Calling-Station-Id = "1.1.1.1"
            User-Password = "cisco"
    Access-Accept
    =======
            Service-Type = NAS-Prompt-User
            Cisco-AVPair = "shell:priv-lvl=15"
    This works fine but doesn't provide any timing limitations. So I have modified the FreeRadius config to be :
    users
    =============
    cisco Auth-Type := System
      Service-Type = NAS-Prompt-User,
      cisco-avpair = "shell:priv-lvl=15",
      Session-Timeout = 20
    Cisco Terminal Server
    ==============
    aaa new-model
    aaa authentication login default group radius local none
    aaa authorization exec default group radius if-authenticated 
    aaa accounting exec default start-stop group radius
    aaa accounting network default start-stop group radius
    aaa accounting connection default start-stop group radius
    After this, I am able to see that the terminal server actually receives an Access-Accept including the Session-Timeout attributes like the following :
            Service-Type = NAS-Prompt-User
            Cisco-AVPair = "shell:priv-lvl=15"
            Session-Timeout = 20
    But the problem is that it doesn't really terminate the session after the 20 seconds are reached . My questions is that :
    1. Is the terminal server really able to enforce such time limit after receiving the attribute ?
    2. Is the 2600 terminal server  with [IOS 12.1(3)T] compliant with RFC 2865?
    3. What can I do so that the terminal server forces the user to be logged out after the session time limit is reached ?
    Thanks
    Frank

    Frank,
    I think you should use the login time s well:
    Login-Time
    Login-Time is a very powerful internal check AVP. It allows flexible authorization and its value is used by the logintime (rlm_logintime) module to determine if a person is allowed to authenticate to the FreeRADIUS server or not. This value is also used to calculate the Session-Timeout reply value. Session-Timeout is subsequently used by the NAS to limit access time.
    The following line will grant Alice access only between 08:00 and 18:00 each day.
    "alice" Cleartext-Password := "passme", Login-Time := 'Al0800-1800'
    The logintime module will calculate the reply value of Session-Timeout if Alice has logged in within the permitted timeslots to inform the NAS how long she is allowed to stay connected. If Alice tries to access the network when she is not permitted, the request will be rejected.
    http://www.packtpub.com/article/getting-started-with-freeradius
    http://wiki.freeradius.org/config/Users
    yes, the terminal server is RFC 2865 compliant.

  • How to bring up mulitpe connections through a terminal server

    Ok, I have never been able to figure this out. I have a Cisco 2511 terminal server. Is there a way when using SecureCRT to bring up multiply devices going through the terminal server. What i keep doing is ctrl-shft-6-x but that's only going to be displayed on the same terminal window. I want to have multipe tabs open to the other devices. Other then putting a IP on all the devices and not using the terminal server while telneting I just can't seam to find a way. On videos like CBT nugget he goes through multipe tabs for his devices. I figued there has to be a way.

    I believe that this approach should work:
    - open a session with SecureCRT.
    - telnet to the term server.
    - use the term server to open a console session to one device.
    - open a  new tab in SecureCRT.
    - in the new tabl telnet to the term server.
    - use the term server to open a console session to another device.
    - open a new tab in SecureCRT.
    - in the new tab telnet to the term server.
    - use the term server to open a console session to another device.
    This approach should work up to the max number of vty that are configured. By default that would be 5. You may be able to configure additional vty and if so you should be able to have additional sessions to additional devices.

  • Terminal Server Printing with OSX

    We have a windows 2003 terminal server.
    We have 10 remote powerbook users with OSX.
    All the remote users have printers "without" postscript capabilities.
    We want to remote access the terminal server, using RDP, and have the ability to print on the local users printers.
    How can we achieve this. We can find no support for this anywhere on the web.
    Need urgent assistance.
    Thanks
    shooshine

    I'm not quite sure what you and your IT manager tried, so I'll try to restate myself.
    If you don't have the ability to install printers "locally" on the server (many users are restricted to installing only "network" printers) then your IT manager should create a new local printer on the server and one of the default "ports" you can select is "Print to File". This is in the same dropdown list that includes LPT, USB, etc. As you continue through the printer configuration wizard you'll be asked to select a printer descirption. A "generic" Postscript description is fine for standard page sizes such as Letter, Legal, etc.
    You would then (through RDC) open your document and print, selecting the "print to file" printer. You'll be asked where to save the .ps file. I suggest the Desktop so that it's easier to find.
    Then you can open the "My Computer" icon where you'll see the C: drive, D: drive, etc., and (if you've configured your RDC client to share your Mac's local disk) a drive letter assigned to your Mac disk. Copy the .ps file to your Mac's disk, which will copy it to your Mac's hard drive.
    The Preview application can open Postscript files and render them on-screen. Once you're this far, it's should be simplay a matter of printing to your locally attached printer or saving the file to a PDF or similar file format out of Preview.
    Hope this helps! bill
