Acrobat pro 8.12 cant create pdf files

Hi
win xp sp2 canoscan 9950F when I select create pdf from the getting started screen I get the adobe acrobat 8.1 has encountered a problem screen (microsoft)When I check the data error report screen this is the heading
AppName: acrobat.exe AppVer: 8.1.0.137 ModName: admplugin.apl
ModVer: 3.16.128.32 Offset: 000a7bf1
It then closes down. Everything worked with acrobat 7.
Any ideas what this can be, and how I can fix
it
thanks
Peter

One thing to try would be to update your scanner drivers by downloading the latest versions from Canon website.

Does Acrobat Pro read the content in pdf file and transforms it?

Does Acrobat Pro read the content in pdf file and transforms it to xls file without the need for much changes or manual work?

Acrobat X (Standard and Pro) will save tabular data to XLS or XLSX format, provided it can recognize the table as being a table. If the PDF has missing or incorrect structure tags, Acrobat will try to guess the table layout by the position of text and lines on the page - this works well for basic formatting but if the table has complex styling, spanned cells etc. it can lead to problems.
Acrobat X will even attempt to export a table within a scanned document, by applying OCR during the export stage - though again this relies on the table being visually identified.
See http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/pdf-to-word-excel-converter.html and this article on how to extract one table from a larger document.

Acrobat 8 Pro now unable to create pdf files

Been using Acrobat 8 for well over a year. Installed new release of AutoCAD 2012, now unable to create pdf files from AutoCAD or MS Office programs. Can anybody help?

You may still want to at least give a repair a shot. Won't hurt and sometimes customer suport (I assume you mean Adobe customer support?) will miss some things. I believe in your version you can find it under the Help menu.

deactivate/activate would resolve.

Cant create pdf file

icant create pdf files,mesage:ican find archive of resource ¨pdf file

A little more information, please.
How do you try to create a PDF?
From within Acrobat, from any application like WORD that uses plug-ins or from Indesign or other Adobe tools that can export to PDF?
Do you have Acrobat?
Have you tried to check the installation of Acrobat and Distiller and perhaps performed a repair installation?
What OS?

Acrobat pro 9 won't open pdf files

Just downloaded trial version of pro 9 for Mac. I tried to install pro 8 and found out that it is not compatible with snow leopard. The uninstall in version 8 is also not compatible with snow leopard. So I had all kinds of trouble uninstalling version 8. This may be the problem. I finally got version 8 off the Mac but the uninstall may not be complete. I installed version 9 and I'm having all the same problems that I did after I installed 8.
The uninstall of version 9 worked and I tried reinstalling it. Still won't open a pfd file. The main problem is that I get the following error when I click on a pdf file.
"The document “5 Chptr 2010.pdf” could not be opened. Acrobat cannot open files in the “Adobe PDF document” format."
What do I need to do to get version 9 to work????
Also when I click on the Acrobat icon in my tray the program does not launch. All I get is the menu bar at the top of my screen. On my windows machine when I open acrobat I get the "wizard" screen that allows me to select what tasks I want to do. And when I try to create a pdf file from a msoffice word document it won't allow me to convert the document. I get the following error message.
"Acrobat could not open 'This is a test document.doc' 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 or use the Acrobat toolbar found in Microsoft Office applications."

Hi rms,
Have you installed Acrobat X and XI Pro both on the same Mac.
Adobe doesn't recommend coexixting different versions of the same software.
Please remove both the versions and install any one of them and then check.
Also make sure you have updated Acrobat to the latest patch.
For 10 it's v 10.1.9 and for 11 it's v11.0.6
Regards,
Rave

Acrobat Pro won't open a PDF file.

I know this isn't a Mac question but I've been to Adobe and they are no help. I have PDF files that were created by Acrobat Pro that will not open when I click on the file icon yet, if I open the Acrobat program it will open the file. This is annoying. Has any one experienced this and is there a solution?

Thanks, your response helped. I knew Preview was the default for PDF files but I had changed that (using Get Info) but I failed to notice two important items. (1) The "Change All" button and (2) the "lock icon down in the lower right part of the window. Once I reselected Acrobat as the "opening" program, selected "Change All", AND unlocked the window so that changes would be incorporated, and OH, I even threw in a restart, everything works as expected. Picky, Picky, Picky.
Thanks again.

Acrobat Pro X fails to open PDF files after new install

Hi
We have installed Adobe Design Premium CS5.5 and the issue we have is that when you try to open a PDF document directly nothing happens, the egg times displays for 1-2 seconds then disapears. We have to open Acrobat Pro from the start menu and let it open, then close it again, when we then try again to open a PDF document directly it now opens.
Why wont Adobe open the document directly without having to open the program first?
We are a school and have Adobe Design Premium installed on 500 computers.
Thanks

Usually related to file associations in Windows. Right click on the PDF and select the Open With option and select Acrobat. Be sure to check "always open with."

My Acrobat Pro will not open my PDF Files any suggestions?

My acrobat pro does not open, anyone else out there with the same problem?

Sherbear2359 (I believe that the US has the right to arm bears so I will be very nice.)
My Adobe Acrobat stopped opening pdfs. Now in the past it was Windows 8.1 playing tricks by thinking that the Adobe software was a trial which expired
Doesn't launch after 30 days | Installed as part of a CS6 suite Tried it and it worked.
Tried the fix again now no change.
I suspect that a Microsoft patch stuffed it up. They have had a few problems.
I used Reader with open with but I want pdf to be opened by Adobe.
Thanks

How to create PDF files in Arabic?

Hello,
I work with Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional to create PDF files, but I can not insert Arabic characters, could you help me please?
Thank you!
(see the attached file)

You need to use Arabic edition of Adobe Acrobat Pro-ME, which allows you to type, view, copy paste Arabic within PDF. To create Arabic PDF you could use a program like Adobe InDesign CS4-ME, and export to PDF in one step! Once the Arabic PDF is created, you can share with anyone, and they can open, view Arabic PDF. If you create PDF correctly, they can type Arabic within the PDF using a free Acrobat ME Reader. Many many options, see http://www.fontworld.com/me/acrobatme.html

How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central.

How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central. It's for an online Diet Questionnaire. After people complete the form I'd like them to click "SUBMIT" and the completed form will be emailed to me.

This can be a bit confusing because Acrobat 11 comes with the desktop app that allows you to create simple PDF forms without having a FormsCentral account. Some people find this helpful, but you need to understand that when you generate the PDF form, it is Reader-enabled by Acrobat. In order to edit the form further in Acrobat, you have to create a non-enabled copy of the form. You do this in Acrobat by opening the form and selecting: File > Save a Copy
and opening the copy. It is not opened automatically.
You can now add a button and set it up to submit by email, either using a "Submit a form" action or the submitForm JavaScript method. You can set it up to include just the form data or the entire PDF, and will want to use a mailto type URL. Submitting the form to the FormsCentral server has a number of important advantages over email (much more reliable, more secure, etc.), so you might want to consider it.
If the form needs to be saved with Reader versions prior to 11, then you will need to Reader-enable the document. In Acrobat 11 you do this by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools

Can't create PDF files with adobe acrobat professional 8 on windows 7

Any ideas?
Thanks

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

Creating PDF Files from Microsoft Office | Learn Acrobat X | Adobe TV

This video explains how to create PDF files from Microsoft Office products including Office 2010 in Acrobat X Std. or Pro.
http://adobe.ly/w5Vsg9

I have used Print to PDF from the File Menu in Office many times. Normally it works fine, but for whatever reason, in MS Excel 2010, I have one file that will not Print.
It allows me to select the Adobe Printer and save location, and when I hit "Print" it shows a dialog box for about 1/2 a second, but no progress meter, and the file isn't created. All other files work fine except this one - there aren't any security measures or special attributes in the file, it just doesn't physically create the PDF.
Any thoughts on how to resolve? I have tried rebooting both Excel as well as the Laptop several times.

Adobe Acrobat XI: Error Adobe Acrobat is not activated. Cannot create PDF File.

After installing Acrobat XI Pro on Windows 7 Ent. w/Office 2010.
From MS Word, select Save as PDF, I recieve "Adobe Acrobat is not activated. Cannot create PDF file."
Any and all troubleshooting has failed.
Uninstall Acrobat, language packs, re-install, install updates, Install on fresh image.

kglad your link refers to Windows XP. As to the rest it is questionable. First of all it would be nice to know the cause, before fixing the problem. For in some cases eliminating the cause will solve problems later on. So, in my case for ex. The problem did not exist until I protected my Word 2010 document and then saved it to PDF--which it would not allow to do so and giving the error message stated above.

Unable to create pdf files after upgrade to acrobat dc, acrobat crashes

Since I just upgraded to Acrobat DC I am not able to create PDF files any more. Whatever program I tried, the PDF-printing process always crashes. Deinstallation and reinstallation does not help in any way. Even worse, there is no option to install any former version of Adobe Acrobat through the Creative Cloud App. Any office or CAD software from which I am trying to print also totally stucks from the PDF printing process. I am a freelancer and have some urgent deadlines tomorrow, so the last thing I need right now is trouble with my pdf-printer. Any help is highly appreciated. (Windows 7 Professional, HP ZBook 15 Mobile Workstation).

For those of you who are Creative Cloud members and are facing the same problem, this is the way to reinstall Acrobat XI Pro (you will not find this option within the Creative Cloud App):
1. Make sure you uninstalled Acrobat DC.
2. Log in with your account data on https://creative.adobe.com
3. Go to https://creative.adobe.com/de/products/acrobat
4. Choose Acrobat XI Pro from the dropdown menu and click the download button.
5. An event handler will ask you in a popup window if you want to open the link within the Adobe Creative Cloud App. Choose CreativeCloud(URIHandler) from the list and hit okay.
6. The Download will now apear in the Apps list of the Creative Cloud App and can be installed by hitting the Install button.
Took me some time to figure that out and I would prefer to use the latest Acrobat version. But as long as Acrobat DC causes my other applications to crash, Acrobat XI Pro will do the job.
