Acrobat 9 Pro Extended: How to use Windows 7 Snipping Tool to Paste into PDF

Acrobat 9 Pro Extended on Windows 7.
I frequently use the Windows built-in Snipping Tool to copy parts of pages and paste them into other applications.
Works great.
I can't find a way to let Acrobat allow me to Paste.
I create the snip like I always do.
Then navigage to Acrobat. But the Edit/Paste menu item is grayed out.
I tried File/Create PDF/From Blank File. Placed my insert point into the box.
Still no Edit/Paste was available.
Any ideas on what I need to do to allow Edit/Paste from the Windows 7 Snipping Tool?
Thanks for any help or advice!

You can paste the contents of the clipboard (if an image) onto a PDF page as a stamp. In Acrobat it is called the "Paste Clipboard Image as Stamp Tool" and is found in the stamp menu. You can then move and resize if wanted. To make it part of the regular page contents, you can flatten the stamps, perhaps with this free JavaScript-based tool: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

Where is the logfile for Acrobat Pro Extended 9.2 on Windows ? (regarding Microsoft Office 2003)

My installation of Acrobat Pro extended works printing all types of Microsoft Office 2003 documents (Word, Excel, Pagemaker, etc) but NOT with Powerpoint and I'm trying to get more information other than what I'm seeing in Powerpoint when I try to create the PDF which is "an error occurred while trying to print the Adobe PDF"
where would I look for the log file?

Acrobat Pro Extended - how can I add links to 3D-objects?

Hi there,
I'm using Acrobat Pro Extended 9.0 and I would like to attach links to different filetypes to a 3D-object in a 3D-PDF. I tried to use the link-tool but it seems like that only works for 2D-PDF. Also in the 3D-Reviewer I haven't found a way yet to make it work.
Thanks
what eva

It's possible, but not in the simple tools-based way.
The "easiest" way is to add a Javascript to the 3D annotation which hooks the mouse event, scans the event.hits array and reacts based on the contents. If a mesh object is clicked the hits array will contain the mesh name in position 0 (then everything behind it in order). Your only issues arise when you want the "normal" clicking action to work as well (for selecting nodes, etc.), in which case you have to ensure your script passes the events about.
Many of the example files on the acrobatusers.com 3D gallery use that principle, and there are also some in the adobe.com section on 3D Javascript. The idea of a '3D linking tool' is a loooong way off - the way 3D is handled by Acrobat isn't set up to understand things at that level - the UI sees the 3D model as nothing but a black box that can be shouted at.

Adobe acrobat pro 9.2 crashes in windows xp sp3 when closing a pdf

Adobe acrobat pro 9.2 crashes in windows xp sp3 when I close a pdf. This means that if I have multiple files open, all of them close. I get an error message from windows that the problem is due to windows' Data Execution Prevention (DEP). I tried making Adobe an exception to windows' DEP and re-started the computer but this did not help the problem. Any ideas about how to fix this problem?

So.. If we want to control the "hardware graphics acceleration", should it be done inside the Adobe Acrobat Pro ?
If yes, which part of option should we changed ?
If not, can someone tell me which way to setting this one ?
Do anybody have other input ? This problem makes me crazy
Thank you so much in advanced.

How do I get the PDF Convert feature of Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.4, which makes a PDF of a web page interactive, to work in Firefox 4.0.1?

I just installed (on my Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) operating system/Intel i5 CPU M560 2.67 GHz) and am now using as my default browser Firefox 4.0.1 because Internet Explorer 9 was giving me so much trouble--lack of display of web content, lack of PDF reproduction when web content displayed, screwball formatting display, etc., all of which has been remedied by the mere installation of Firefox 4.0.1.
How do I get the PDF Convert feature of Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.4, which converts a web page to an interactive PDF, to set up and work on Firefox 4.0.1?

You can not do that using Adobe Acrobat 9. Adobe never made a create PDF add-on for Firefox for use with Adobe Acrobat 9. They created a Firefox add-on for use with Acrobat X, but currently that one does not work with Firefox 4 though Adobe are working on an update.

Acrobat Pro Extended 9.3.1 - Can't use "Send for Shared Review"

After the last update for Acrobat Pro Extended, I cannot send RoboHelp PDF generated documents for shared reivew. I used to be able to send draft reviews of the help (in PDF) using our public shared drive. The error indicates: "The filename you specified is not valid because it does not include a .pdf extension, contains one or more invalid characters or the path preceding it refers to a protected system location." I have not changed any of the items mentioned in the error and yet after the last software release update to the 9.3.1, the share review option is not working. Has anyone run into this issue and can help with pointers?

I am surprised the patch allowed you to update from AA9.0.0 to 9.3.1 directly. Almost all patches (updates) for Acrobat are incremental and they must be installed in sequence. I suspect this it true for AA9 also, but I could be wrong.
I suspect it was the jump that is causing the problem. I would suggest you reinstall AA9 (you may have to be careful about activating and deactivating so you do not lose your number of license installs). Once you are back to AA9.0.0, then either use the "Check for Updates" or download all of the updates and install them in order. You may have to reboot after some of the changes. It looks like you have 7 updates to go through. Folks have complained about the updates not being cummulative for years, don't expect things to change.

Acrobat Pro Extended 9.0.0 Admin Install Update

Hello
I am trying to update our deployment of Acrobat Pro Extended 9.0.0 to the latest patch, 9.1.3.
We are not deploying the updates via Group Policy, as our deployment of Acrobat Pro is "on demand", therefore I initially wish to update the administrative installation point.
I feel it important to point out that our software was downloaded from the Adobe Licensing site, and is not copied off any CD/DVD media.
My basic process here is:
Download the patch files for Acrobat Pro Extended for Windows, from Adobe:
AcroProExUpd910_all_incr.msp (no longer easily found on Update site as downloadable at the time of this post)
AcrobatUpd911_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd912_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd913_all_incr.msp
Of which, based on the article at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/498/cpsid_49880.html I understand that:
9.1.0 is a quarterly update
9.1.1 is a security update
9.1.2 is a quarterly update
9.1.3 is a security update (assumed, as it came out in the wake of current security fixes)
Therefore, I think I need to update my AIP to 9.1.0, then to 9.1.2 (acceptable according to the release notes for this patch) and then to 9.1.3, thus completing my task.
My problem comes from running the patches on the AIP. Normally I use a customised installation, but to rule that out, I am ONLY using the downloaded software - no local customisations applied using the Adobe Customisation Wizard.
Patching the 9.0.0 version to 9.1.0 using msiexec /a Acro3D.msi /p AcroProExUpd910_all_incr.msp WORKS! Setup completes, no errors.
Patching the 9.1.0 version to 9.1.2 using msiexec /a Acro3D.msi /p AcrobatUpd912_all_incr.msp FAILS! Setup reports a missing file in the Data1.cab, interop.adobepdfmakerx.dll. Google search reveals unlikely sources to download this missing file.
Patching cannot continue, as 9.1.2 is a pre-requisite to 9.1.3. I have the same problem with applying 9.1.1, though the above KB article made me ignore trying to get that to work.
Does anyone have any advice where I am going wrong?
Thanks!
UPDATE:
After more digging around, it seems that the 9.1.x updates are only for Pro and Standard, whereas the 9.1 update is explicitally for the Pro Extended product.
All 4 patches will patch an "installed" version of the Acrobat Professional Extended product, however the 9.1.2 update will not patch the administrative installation point, presumably because of the different version (Pro or Standard patch, not Pro Extended patch), resulting in the error of the missing file.
The Adobe Security Bulletin clearly says the patches are available for Standard, Professional and Extended, yet the patches dont seem to work! This is just nuts!

I ahve a new Acrobat Pro Extebded
9.0.0 and I am running windows 7. I cant
update anything and when I go into the help menu and select the updates it tells me I am
not on line etc.
I have tried and downloaded the updates and just cant install as it tells me the programme is missing etc etc.
All I want is a programme that works and i cant be done with all the tech talk as all i am is a user and run programmes that do the job. can any one advice what I can do next with out have to be a programmer.

Secunia & Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.3.1

Hi,
According to Secunia, my updated version of Adobe Acrobat Extended Pro 9.3.1 is insecure.
I have clicked on the Download Solution button on Secunia to obtain the latest Adobe Acrobat Version. After loading the latest version, I still have the following information.
Secunia points to the following file: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.dll
And reports that my version is: 9.3.0.148
Yet, when I fire up my Adobe Acrobat Extended and then go Help | About, I see the version is 9.3.1.
When Adobe updates Acrobat, does it leave insecure files behind? Is there anything I can do to ensure that my version of Adobe Acrobat is completely secure? How do I get Secunia to recognize my updated and, I hope, secure version?
Sincerely,
Kevin

Hi Bill,
I suspect that its latest version 9.3.1 is secure, at least for now.
My concern is that, for whatever reason, Secunia continues to think I have a prior version (9.3.0.148).
I had a similar problem with Flash. To solve my Adobe Flash problem, I used an Adobe uninstaller to completely remove Flash and then reinstall the latest version from Adobe web site.
I can't do that with my Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended. I need to get incremental upgrades through the upgrade process.
I have a hunch that the upgrades don't remove all the prior detritus from prior versions and that is tripping up the Secunia security.
I am hoping someone else has encountered the same issues and has found a solution.
Sincerely,
Kevin

PDF Gen need Acrobat pro extended

Hi all,
I think I once heard that Adobe Acrobat Pro was enough for PDF Generator. When I config LC ES2 I get warnings in configuration.
Does LC ES2 require Acrobat Pro Extended? Can it work without?
How does I most easily update it now LC ES2 is up and running?
Thanks guys

"Add multimedia to PDFs" at Acrobat Pro's LiveDocs may help to clarify.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Professional/WS65B80E79-F165-44f0-BBCA-0F142A75869 6.html
Looks like the following general observations apply.
If the multmedia file(s) meet the identified requirements for Professional it is "in".
If the multimedia file(s) do not, then conversion is required - but conversion is only available in Pro Extended.
That you get a "need conversion" message, from Pro that would be indicative of an input that does not meet the specified requirements for direct use in Pro.
An alternative might be to try "Create Legacy ..."
Legacy multimedia will rely on the end-user having the appropriate player application installed.

Embedding video in PDF, keeps says it cant convert and need Acrobat Pro Extended?

I have Acrobat Pro 9 and with using the tool to embed video which seems to convert to a flash format, it keeps coming back saying its unable to convert and that I would need Acrobat Pro Extended. I tried a handfull of different video types and every one that I chose gave me the same message. All it will seem to do is somehow link to the video whcih will use the viewer installed on that persons computer to run. It seems to give you the ability to convert video over but it doesnt let you for anything you choose, what am I doing wrong?
I have Acrobat Pro 9 Extended at work which I tried the same thing with and of course, that worked. Is the Extended part by any chance just a patch for Pro 9 or is it a totally different purchase?

Problem with Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended version 9.3.4 reading Inventor 2009

I would like to be able to generate 3D PDF files from Autodesk Inventor CAD models (e.g. .iam files) using Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended. I am constrained to use Inventor 2009. When I originally installed Acrobat Pro Extended, I was able to make this work after installing the IMPORT3D update at:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4073
Recently (9/5/2010), I updated Acrobat Pro Extended to version 9.3.4. I believe that following that update, I lost the ability to read in Inventor 2009 files. Acrobat Pro Extended now gives the error messages:
"Exception has been raised" followed by:
"Acrobat could not open 'file' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document to Adobe PDF."
This is exactly what happened when I first installed Acrobat Pro extended and before I installed the IMPORT3D update mentioned above. I tried re-installing that update but now the installer gives the error message:
"No qualifying products found to apply this update."
Note that Inventor 2009 does allow one to "Save Copy As" to PDF format, but this just creates a 2D PDF snapshot of the current model view -- same for print to pdf.
I suppose one thing to try is removing Acrobat Pro Extended and then re-installing without the 9.3.4 update, but with the IMPORT3D update -- but if that is necessary, then I won't be able to take advantage of any further updates (e.g. security updates) to Acrobat, which seems like a bad situation.
Has anyone else had this problem? Or is it just me?

I may have figured out what was causing my problem with conversion of Inventor 2009 to 3D PDF. After playing around with a number of inventor files, I discovered that the conversion worked fine when there were no references to external files. For example a .ipt file (part file) seemed to convert fine. I believe the problem was that on the form one obtains with Edit->Preferences->Convert to PDF->Autodesk Inventor->Edit Settings->Import->Assembly, the check box for "use root file directory" was NOT checked. Oddly, this is the default and I'm pretty sure I tried setting the conversion options to the default. In any case, I now seem to be able to perform the conversion of Inventor 2009 to 3D PDF so this problem is solved I guess.

Acrobat Pro Extended v9.0, where can I find update v9.1?

I have Acrobat Pro Extended v9.0 and I am installing it on my new computer Windows 8 because my old one crashed. I am looking for the update to go to Acrobat Pro Extended v9.1 so I can continue with the updates that follow. Every time I look for the update v9.1 does not seem to exist. I find the updates after v9.1 like v9.1.1 but I cannot install them unless I first install v9.1. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Please try to go to the ftp location mentioned below for the update.
