Acrobat 8 Pro Error when download pdf from website

Fresh install of Acrobat 8 Pro.
Win XP Home edition SP3.
IE 7.0.5730
Windows message:
"Do you want to save this file, or find a program online to open it?"
"Name:5821.pdf
Type: Unknown File Type, 242kb
Buttons: [Find] [Save] [Cancel]"
This happens everytime I try to download a pdf (different file name of course)
How do I set Adobe Acrobat to be my default pdf reader?
Thanks

I remember what the difference is. I used to have different choices. [Open] [Save] [Cancel]
I used to Always choose OPEN for pdfs. I could choose to save later if I decided to keep the file. Is this a change that Adobe made? A browser plug-in, maybe?
I really dont want to save EVERYTHING, and have to remember to drag it to the recycle bin later.
Any help?

  • Acrobat pro xi - bug creating pdf from website

    Hi there,
    I'tried to create a pdf from a website. Problem is, that within a paragraph the last non-breaking space is moved by Acrobat to the start of the next line. The whole paragraph - expect the first line - is intended. Any ideas? Or a bug?
    Thx for feedback!

    Hi networker_mf
    Could you please share the following details so that we can help solve the problem?
    1. The OS you are using and its version - Win7/Win8 or Mac OS 10.9/Mac OS 10.8?
    2. Is it 32-bit or 64-bit OS?
    3. Acrobat version you are using 11.0.7 or 11.0.8?
    4. Are you trying to convert from a browser? If yes, then which browser and the browser version?
    5. Is this happening for all websites or specific website? If it is a specific website, could you please share its url?
    Thanks

    How can I solve the -50 error when downloading video from itunes.   The apple support people cannot even figure it out!??

    The 2330 error often means some sort of damage to the filing system as might happen if the battery fell out while the disk was in use.
    Try running a disk check to see if it finds and fixes any errors.

    I am trying to download pdf from a LinkToaction UI element.
    I recieve %pdf" error when trying to download using below code. from backend perspective ABAPer said they are able to download PDF from ABAP program. Lokks like I am doing some mistake somewhere in below code.

    In webdynpro I am tried to take each line from that table and attched to a IWDResource as below.
    Please correct me if anything wrong here to get out of %pdf" error.
    IModel_Pdf_FileNode Model = wdContext.nodeModel_Pdf_File();

    {code
    IWDResource pdfResource = wdContext.nodePDF().currentPDFElement().getBinaryResource();
                   String pdfURL = pdfResource.getUrl(WDFileDownloadBehaviour.OPEN_INPLACE.ordinal());

    Currently above code giving %pdf" error when clicking LTU UI elemnt.
    Please suggest How I need to adjust your sample in my case.

  • Acrobat 9 Quits When Create PDF from Scanner Selected

    Hi. I wonder if anyone can advise please.
    I have recently installed Acrobat 9 on my MacBook Pro and have plenty of RAM. However, I can "Create PDF from Scanner" just the once. After that, Acrobat quits when I select Scan or quits if I cancel the scan.
    I have tried the following:
    1. Troubleshoot System Errors & Freezes
    2. New User account
    3. Recreated Preferences
    4. Booted from separate disk
    5. Repaired disk permissions
    6. Have no third party plug-ins installed
    7. Have run Repair Acrobat
    8. Changed Universal Access
    9. Defragmented disk & repaired files
    10. Safe Boot and reinstall Acrobat
    Nothing has worked except when I clean install I can scan through Acrobat once.
    I can scan from the scanner software - Lexmark 4850 - with a jpeg straight to Acrobat but want to try to solve the issue of scanning straight from the app.
    Thanks for your help people.
    Regards
    Paul

    After I discovered my problem of quitting after completing the scan of the first side of a 2-sided document and decided to go to Adobe for help, I should have known I was in real trouble after following their instructions for locating the Acrobat serial number. After bringing up the splash screen and clicking on it, instead of seeing the number the splash screen disappeared! So I had no option but to use the phone. Then their help person couldn't give me the serial number- he had to transfer me- and I chose to stay with him for help instead. He decided it was a conflict between the Acrobat & HP software and ended the help session.
    I then did some on-line research and discovered others with the same problem, and came up with the comparison test with the Windows version. Adobe's phone system didn't recognize my Case #, but the second Help person said it worked fine. At that point, I got the feeling that I was in real trouble. After another hour going over the same ground and repeated denials that their software was at fault, the Helper refused my request that they do a Windows comparison test or send me a Windows version to test myself and promised to call me back with results of their "research". That call never came.
    On the third call, again with the Case # unrecognized by the phone system, the Helper was even more unhelpful, probably after reading the record of the first two calls. He insisted on going back to the machine and over the same ground once again, and I ended the call.
    I agree that the on line approach is better, and I may have to make a double call to get the serial number (neither of the two I have, each different on the case or on the CD worked) and try that if my request for a supervisor fails. Fortunately they are so incompetent that they can't track starting over.
    I'm not a programmer, but have lots of varying experience with computers dating back to the first Atari-400. Since your Acrobat uses only the Twain driver component from your scanner software, the first place to look for a problem is in the Acrobat software, especially since the software doesn't run again after the first use without reinstalling, and the scanner continues to perform properly using it's installed software. The Windows comparison test such as Tim Whitfield was able to make, would clearly establish the Mac version of the Acrobat software to be at fault, but would still not resolve our problems. Unfortunately I hold out little hope for either you or I with Adobe, since neither their phone nor the online help has come up with a prior fix. This indicates a bug fix requirement, which for something like this looks to be a relatively long time in coming.

  • Acrobat Pro XI: Creating a PDF from a Web Page

    When I try to create a PDF from a Web page using Acrobat XI, I get the Error Code "Nothing done" and "Authorization Failure", but it doesn't happen on all webistes. Does anyone know what could be causing this and how to fix it? I'm using the trial version of Acrobat Pro XI on a Mac. Same result with either Firefox or Safari.
    Thanks.

    It's likely a HTTPS site or you have an authenticating proxy server where you are required to enter a password to acess the web page. 

  • Page size error when creating PDF from Excel 2013

    Hello,
    I am using Acrobat Pro XI, and am creating a PDF from Excel 2013.  I have updated Acrobat to the latest version (11.0.4).  I am using the Acrobat CreatePDF add-in inside Excel to convert a spreadsheet to PDF.  However, when I create the PDF, the page size doubles from 8.5" x 11" to 17" x 22".  I have checked the print settings inside Excel to insure that the content fits onto an 8.5" x 11" page.  I also checked the Preferences->Advanced Preferences of the Create PDF add-in and confirmed that the default page size is set to 8.5" x 11".  Does anyone know why it is creating the PDF with a 17" x 22" page size?  Also, can the page be resized back down to 8.5" x 11" within Acrobat Pro XI? 

    Hello - this did not happen when I printed the file to the Adobe PDF printer.  It correctly sized the sheet as 8.5" x 11".  Thanks for the suggestion.  Also, it will properly print out to the physical printer. 
    The main problem is when I am combining several PDFs into one document, I have some sheets sized at 8.5" x 11" and some at 17" x 22", so the document looks strange when viewing it online.  I am still not sure why the Create PDF add-in creates a different sized PDF than the Print to PDF function. 

  • Adobe Acrobat XI crashes when creating PDF from webpage.

    I need to create quite a few pdfs from webpages and all of a sudden, after being completely functional, my Acrobat has begun crashing nearly 100% of the time when trying to do so.  I'm defining crashing as either completely crashing ('...has stopped working...') or freezing indefinitely, forcing me to Force Quit.  It may be worth mentioning that I am using the Mac version.  Any ideas?

    The problem is likely that the web page does not conform to standard HTML. AA8 crashed on me also. You can print the file from your browser. The only thing that would be missing would be the 3 links near the bottom and they are easy to add.

  • Align Columns?  using Acrobat Pro 9 to create pdf from text file(s)

    Hello,
    Every time that I have tried to create a PDF from a text file, the columns dont align.  The default Notepad setting I use to view a text file is Courier New which shows the columns aligned.  How can I set defaults in Acrobat Pro 9 to have columns align?
    Thanks

    By definition a plain text file has no font, so it cannot be monospaced. Acrobat converts plain text using Times, this cannot be changed.
    As TSN suggests to create a PDF from a text file with a specific choice of font and formatting you must print from another application.

  • Need Acrobat Pro to assemble master PDF from dissimilar sized PDF's?

    I have a need to create a master PDF (portfolio) from other PDF's, with the master PDF containing Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, and different size CAD drawings already converted into PDF's.  Do I need Acrobat Pro to manage the dissimilar sized documents, or is Acrobat Standard sufficient.
    Other question - to annotate the master PDF with highlighting, emphasis boxes around key information, and text boxes, I assume both Acrobat Standard and Pro have the same capabilities.
    Correct?
    Thanks for everyone's help.

    To create PDF portfolio, you would require Acrobat X PRO, this feature is not available in Std. Version. For more details, please see Acrobat X product comparison matrix.
    http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/matrix.html
    For your second questions, "Yes" Acrobat Std. is sufficient.
    Please let me know, if you have any further questions.

  • Errors when downloading files from web sites

    I cannot download files from Firefox anymore on my home computer. I click on the download link and it takes me to another page that is blank. I can download just fine w/o any problems from my work computer, download box/window appears just fine. I'm using the same Windows 7, Firefox 8.0 program and same website that gives me the error message from my home computer. Is there a pop-up blocker, cookie or plug-in that I need to turn off/on? How do I enable downloads so I can save to my home computer?
