I have Adobe Acrobat Professional for Windows XP operating system. I now have Windows 8.

How do I download the patch to convert from Windows XP to Windows 8?

I am using 6.0 It loads but with errors.
I tried downloading the free trial of Acrobat XI Professional, but it opens in a foreign language even though I choose English. I tried it twice and got the same result. I am ready to scream!

PDFs look different in Adobe reader and Acrobat professional compared to the built in PDF viewer on windows 8

Hi there,
I have been trying to narrow down an issue we have been having for some time in printing PDF files and finding that they look different on paper compared to screen. Up until today our big KIP plotter got the blame, but as I have been collecting notes on a little windows 8 tablet I noted that PDFs opened in the windows PDF viewer have the same visual defects as the printouts. My example today is that on a CAD drawing there is a small box/frame with a number in their, I tried printing and the frame was completely blacked out. As a test I tried saving the PDF as a TIFF file from Adobe Acrobat professional and this file had the same fault as the printed copy. When I open it in the windows 8 pdf viewer I can see that there is a shading within this box that does not show on Adobe Reader (latest version 11.0.10.32), the adobe reader and acrobat pro version both show a white background to the box. We have been having lots of issues with sections being missing from drawings and overly feint lines.
I am not sure where to start trying to narrow down why we are getting different results in different PDF readers. Is there anyone who maybe able to point me in the right direction? It almost feels like the shading or colour density is not being consistent when PDFs are being opened in different packages.
Thanks in advance
Andy

Some PDF viewers comply with the PDF ISO Standard (ISO 32000) "just enough" while others (such as Adobe's) fully comply.
As with anything there's a cost to using anything that comes from a "just enough" approach.
Be well...

While installing Adobe Acrobat 8 on Windows 7 Professional why do I get the message "Adobe pdf.dll on windows Vista CD-ROM is needed.

While installing Adobe Acrobat 8 on Windows 7 Professional, why do I get the messaage "Adobe pdf.dll on Windows Vista CD-ROM is needed"?

Because your software is far too old for Windows 7.

Acrobat Professional Windows 9.1.3 Crashing in Preflight Droplet

Hi,
I created a preflight droplet using Acrobat Professional 9.1.3 in Windows XP SP2 and when I run the droplet I'm getting the message "DDEHandler unhandeled exception caught!". This message appears in every scenario I tried:
- Acrobat running before the file is dropped in the droplet icon
- Acrobat not running before the file is dropped in the droplet icon
- Acrobat running before I started the droplet in the command-line
- Acrobat not running before I started the droplet in the command-line
Eve scenario was tried with a pre-built profile and a custom profile. Nothing works!!!!
If I run the same preflight profile normally in Acrobat (not as droplet), the preflight runs ok, with no error.
Any clue?
It's a trial Acrobat Pro. I'm planning to buy a license if the preflight works...
I just downloaded Acrobat Pro for Mac and I found a very similar crash (of course, with a different error message but with the same conditions) and there's a thread opened in Acrobat Mac forum since February with no solution from Adobe. I'll look for a competitive solution, it seems Adobe isn't interested in provide a decent solution.
The Acrobat's preflight tool is made by a german company, Callas Software, and this company sells similar preflight products (with additional functions and higher prices). Callas' products work very fine in Mac and in PC.
If you need a scriptable preflight, please forget Adobe Pro 9....
Best regards,
Lorenzo

http://forums.adobe.com/message/2907499#2907499 – as you say the same error occurs in OS X. Here is the corresponding mac-thread with a bit more information (applying both to Windows and OS X). Note that despite the error Acrobat DOES perform the preflight, but has to be restarted after.
It is an issue with Acrobat 9, and the possible (not very good) workarounds can be summarised as:
Use Acrobat 8 instead
Check the box for making a summary PDF
Do not generate detailed reports
If you are scripting etc. you might also find a way that automates restarting Acrobat after each preflight (yay...) or that closes the summary PDF created after each preflight (if that options is used).
And yeah, I do hope Adobe fixes it as Acrobat does have a whole lot of powerful preflight/fixup tools built in and it's a shame the droplets are broken.

Acrobat Professional 6 on Windows 7, no install disk

I have Adobe Acrobat Professional 6 but cannot find my installation CD and am running windows 7 but the program will not load and asks me for my disk. before it will finish loading. Has anyone had this issue? Is there another place to download it from?

Due to the likelihood that Acrobat 6 is too old to be supported, you should see the following:

Acrobat Pro 8 is not compatible with Win 7---especially for creating pdfs.

Which print in acrobat professional 9 in windows 8.1 x64?

Which print in acrobat professional 9 in windows 8.1 x64?

To print from Acrobat 9 Pro the click-path is "file - print".
As to using an Acrobat 9.x product in Windows 8.1 that's a no go.
The Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible in Windows 8 or 8.1.
Note: The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year of 2013.
If in Windows 8.1 one must install (and update) Acrobat XI.

Acrobat 8 Professional and Windows Server 2003 R2 Issue

Hi
Our customers using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional on Windows server 2003 R2 SP2. It works some period of time but then application stops working with this error and cannot start anymore:
Faulting application Acrobat.exe, version 8.1.0.137, faulting module Checkers.api, version 8.1.0.137, fault address 0x000021a2.
What can be the problem? There is nothing in the knowledgebase.
Regards,
Jelena

Hello jordixip,
You can connect your Mac to Terminal Services using Remote Desktop Connection Client . You need a license, the client software, and turning on the appropriate bits on the server. It is in Micro$oft-ese, but the overview is here.
Good Luck!

Does Adobe Acrobat Professional 8 works fine on Windows 2008 64-bit R2 server?

Hi,
Currently, we use Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1 on Windows 2003 server. We mainly use the Distiller to convert PDF files.
If we migrate the 2003 server to Windows 2008 64-bit R2 server, does version 8.1 works fine?
If not, which version support Windows 2008 64-bit R2 server?
Appreciate to have a feedback.

As long as you are looking to use it for local use only, and not as part of the server, I suspect it does work. AA X is the first that was certified for operation on Server 2008, but still only for local use. Any server use is a violation of the license. If you have Server 2008, why not just try it -- but be sure to abide with the license. Be sure to install the updates with the 64-bit system.

Downloading Acrobat Professional X for Windows

Hi all,
My company bought me the Acrobat Professional X for Windows around 2 years ago. Now I have relocated to another country (and uninstalled the Acrobat Professional on old computer) and brought the licence key. When I wish to download the product so I can install on the new company, I noted that Acrobat already changed version to XI. What should I do in order to install the Acrobat Pro X on the new company? Thanks.

How to install acrobat professional 7 on windows 8

I just purchased a new computer that runs windows 8. I have acrobat professional 7 installed on my old computer, unfortunately I downloaded it directly from Adobe and didn't get a CD, I only have my product registration receipt with a serial number. How can I reinstall on my new computer?
Thanks!

reset your preferences:
Restore the Acrobat Preferences folder (Windows)
Restore the Acrobat Preferences folder to eliminate problems that damaged preferences cause. Most preference problems are caused by these file-based preferences, although most Acrobat preferences are stored within the registry.
Note: This solution removes custom settings for Collaboration, JavaScripts, Security, Stamps, Color Management, Auto Fill, Web Capture, and Updater.
Quit Acrobat.
In Windows Explorer, go to the Preferences folder:
(Windows 7/Vista) C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\[version]
(XP) C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\[version]
Move the Preferences folder to another location (for example, C:\Temp).
Restart Acrobat.
If the problem recurs after you restore the Acrobat Preferences folder, then the problem isn’t related to the Preferences folder. To restore custom settings, drag the folder you moved in step 2 back to its original location. Then click Yes To All to replace the new Preferences folder.
Restore the Acrobat preferences files (Mac OS)
Restore the Acrobat preferences files to eliminate problems caused by a damaged preferences file.
Note: Re-creating the Acrobat preferences files restores settings to their defaults.
Quit Acrobat.
Drag the following files from the Users/[Username]/Library/Preferences folder to the Desktop:
Acrobat WebCapture Cookies
com.adobe.Acrobat.Pro.plist or com.adobe.Acrobat.Pro_x86_9.0.plist
Acrobat Distiller Prefs and com.adobe.Acrobat.Pro.plist (if you are troubleshooting an issue with Distiller)
The Acrobat folder, which contains preferences for forms (MRUFormsList), collaboration (OfflineDocs), and color settings (AcrobatColor Settings.csf)
Restart Acrobat
If the problem recurs after you restore the Acrobat preferences files, then the problem isn’t related to preferences files. To restore custom settings, drag the files you moved in step 2 back to their original location. Then click OK to the alert “A newer item named ‘[filename]’ already exists in this location. Do you want to replace it with the older one you're moving?”
if that fails, uninstall, clean and then reinstall, Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs

Contact Adobe for support. Your version of Acrobat Professional/Standard 6 isn't compatible with this version of Windows.

I reinstalled my Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Professional only to get the message "Your version of Acrobat Professional/Standard 6 isn't compatible with this version of Windows" when I tried to run the program. I am using Windows 8.1 on a Dell laptop PC.
How do I fix this problem?

Buy a new version, currently at 11, 5 versions since your 6..
