Acrobat Reader 9 Bug?

I designed a form in Acrobat Professional 8. When I look at the form in Acrobat Reader version 9 and attempted to submit the form, the software opens my email client and creates a new email message, but doesn't fill the "To:" in the email. When I used a different computer with Reader 8 installed, the "To:" in my email is filled in with the proper email address.
If I create a new form in Acrobat Professional 9, and use acrobat reader 9, I don't have this problem.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?

I dont know how to move it. I'll mark it as answered and post a new one!
Sorry for the mistake!

Safari 4 and Acrobat Reader bug over HTTPS

Hi all,
I have a web application which generates PDF files over an HTTPS connection and displays them inside the browser window. This application worked fine in Safari 3 and with Acrobat Reader 8. Now with Safari 4 and Acrobat Reader 8 or 9, the window stays white (Reader 9) or black (Reader 8) or displays an eternally spinning cursor. When i switch to Preview , it works fine. Right clicking on the PDF then and asking to display it in Acrobat also works fine, so I think it might be related to Safari 4.
Anyone had the same problem, or anyone have a suggestion on how to solve this problem.
Michael

Hi akayib;

Bug in Acrobat Reader 8 & 9? "Actual size" not actual size

When I choose to view a PDF in "actual size" using Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 or 9, it is NOT actual size. Under Acrobat Reader 7, it WAS actual size.
For example, if I go to the properties of the document and find out that it is supposed to be an 8.5 x 11 document, the document on screen is not 8.5 x 11.
This used to work under Acrobat 7, but doesn't work under Acrobat 8 or 9. It used to be that you could hold an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper up to your monitor and the size of the image on screen was exactly 8.5 x 11, but now if I do the same thing, the size on the monitor does not match the actual size of the paper.
Is this a bug or something else?

The screen size is 17" and the current resolution is 1024 x 1280 (it is in "portrait" mode), but it happens at every resolution I've tested.

Bug in Acrobat Reader Plugin for FF?

Hi,
i use a web application which pulls pdf reports from a server by http-post requests, so parameters are transmitted in the requests-body.
As a viewer i do use Acrobat Reader Plugin, most recent release with FF 3.0.3 on Windows XP pro.
So due of the http-post requests the requested url remains always the same for every report.
The problem:
In case of two reports having the same content-length, the former requested report is displayed as the result of the last request, though the content is different.
The effect could be reproduced.
Obviously the plugin cant distinguish the reports. With Acrobat Reader as the Viewer and with IE and Adobe AddOn all reports are displayed correct.
Beside the http-post implmentation may not be the best way to do this, is this a bug or mishandling by the user.
Regards
Chris

Acrobat Reader DC - Bug with Dialog Boxes Containing Images?

Hi all -
Been testing Reader DC. Only took a couple of minutes to adjust to the new interface; pretty slick and intuitive.
Noticed a potential issue that I wanted to warn/share/prob solve with the community.
I was putting Reader DC through it's paces with a XFA PDF that has some dialog boxes, some of which even had images in them. (Thanks again to BR001.)
The dialog boxes with images look great on Acrobat & Reader 9/10/11 (WIN & MAC) - images are clear; no pixelation.
Reader DC on MAC appears to be fine - resolution looks the same.
But Reader DC on WIN - the images are now pixelated. Especially around the edges, characters/numbers, etc. You can tell something is "off" with the image.
A few simple side-by-side tests can be seen at links below. Reader DC is on left; Acrobat 9 (9.5.5) is on right.

Bug in Reader DC for Windows? Not sure what else the cause could be...
Anyone having their dialog boxes with images open in Reader DC for Windows WITHOUT the pixelation?
FYI/thoughts/ideas/suggestions/confirmations? Hmmm.....

Plötzlich diverse Bugs (Illustrator, Indesign, Acrobat Reader) unter OS X 10.7.2

Hallo liebe Community.
Seit ein paar Monaten verwende ich unter OS X Lion 10.7.2 die CS5.5 Design Standard. Anfänglich gab es gar keine Probleme. CS4 Datein ließen sich ohne Probleme öffnen und bearbeiten etc.
Vor einigen Wochen begannen urplötzlich diverse Bugs aufzutreten, zu denen ich keinerlei Hinweise im Internet fand. Selbst Kompatibelitätsprobleme mit Lion scheinen nicht der Grund zu sein.
Auffällig waren vor allem 3 Probleme, welche immer auftreten.
Indesign:
Bei Indesign ist es nicht mehr möglich Farbfelder auszuwählen. Klicke ich diese an, blinkt das Feld kurz auf und das wars. Das Objekt nimmt die Farbe nicht an. Umgehen kann ich dies nur, indem ich die cmd-Taste gleichzeitig gedrückt halte. Außerdem ist die Reaktionszeit bei einem Klick auf ein Objekt recht lang (Etwa 2 Sekunden bevor ich weiter arbeiten kann). Dies bringt mich direkt zu Problem 2.
Illustrator:
Sobald ich bei Illustrator mit dem Auswahlwerkzeug ein Objekt anklicke, friert das Programm für etwa 5 Sekunden ein, bevor es für etwa die selbe Länge lädt und ich schließlich nach insgesammt 10 Sekunden weiter arbeiten kann. Halte ich die Maustaste gedrückt und verschiebe das Objekt bevor ich loslasse, tritt dieser Fehler nicht auf.
Acrobat Reader:
PDF Datein laden extrem lange. Das zoomen dauert über 10 Sekunden. Das verschieben der Position mit dem Hand Werkzeug benötigt ebenfalls so lange. Das wechseln von Seiten mit Hilfe der Pfeiltasten hingegen geht ohne Probleme. Ein bloßer Klick mit der Maus auf die Fläche sorgt ebenfalls für eine enorme Nachladezeit.
Am auffälligsten ist sicherlich die Tatsache, dass bei jedem Programm diese Nachladezeiten bestehen, welche das Arbeiten beinahe unmöglich machen. Diese Fehler traten absolut plötzlich auf, ohne dass am System irgend etwas verändert wurde. Lediglich der Arbeitsspeicher wurde von 4 auf 8 GB aufgestockt. Dies sollte jedoch wenn überhaupt für schnellere Ladezeiten sorgen und nicht umgekehrt. Ich habe zu diesen Fehlern wie gesagt keinerlei Informationen gefunden und hoffe, dass mir jemand vielleicht helfen kann.
Grüße
Pascal

ohne dass am System irgend etwas verändert wurde. Lediglich der Arbeitsspeicher wurde von 4 auf 8 GB aufgestockt. Dies sollte jedoch wenn überhaupt für schnellere Ladezeiten sorgen und nicht umgekehrt.
Und wenn deine Speicherbasteleien nun einfach was kaputt gemacht haben? Wenn der Speicher einfach "schlecht" ist oder mit falscher Taktrate läuft? Wenn das Betriebssystem irgendwo Infos über die Speicherbereiche gespeichert hat und nun ständig strampelt, Kompatibilität herzustellen? Nix für ungut, aber sowas soll ja schon mal vorkommen. Also mal irgendein Test-Tool drüber laufen lassen und genau die Einstellungen abklappern...

Acrobat Reader 9.2 Bug! Maybe!?

Hey all!First of all I am new to the forum and i'd like to take the chance to say Hello to averyone in this usefull forum! HELLO!
I have just installed Acrobat reader 9.2 downloading from the website adobe.com. All went great and it worked fine. Than suddenly (did not even turn my pc off) anything I double click-on does not open and an acrobat reader window pops up telling me that acrobat cannot open that window. Hmm I go to control panel but guess what!? I cannot open that either as the same window pops up telling me the same thing!
By chance I noticed that if I right click the program i need to open and click open, it actually does! So i used that procedure to open Ccleaner and unistall acrobat reader 9.2 and all came back to normal!
Funny thing is that its the third time i do this! Am I doing something wrong? Everytime i re-install acrobat the same thing happens over and over again!
Any Hint???
Thank you very much for any help might come this way! ;D

First it will help to know whether you are using Acrobat or Reader. There is no Acrobat Reader.
Just making sure you didn't download a trial version of Acrobat instead of Reader.

Dear Adobe people ...
This is a user-to-user forum; you do not address Adobe staff here.
The original post was about an installation on a beta version of Windows 7, which was not supported at the time.
If you have a problem with a different version of Adobe Reader on a different version of Windows 7, please open a new topic.
I'd gladly address Adobe staff directly about it if they didn't make it so difficult to do so but there are notices galore on their website restricting the ways of doing so for this particular product. That said, I accept that they may not review these posts and act on bugs found (although why is beyond me, I know if I was a developer of software and I wanted it to be top quality, I'd be looking everywhere I can for sources of bugs having been found and I certainly wouldn't make it any more difficult than an ordinary bug submission on any other software to report it).
It's clear to me that the problem originally posted about that shows up in Win 7 RC, is still present in the latest software and popping its ugly head up under Win 7 RTM. If they'd nipped it in the bud back then it should be fixed by now - that's annoying. I've been using online forums for a long time and I know it's always a good idea to search for a solution or similar thread and post in that if present, rather than opening an entirely new thread. As the bug is the same, the Adobe software version is very similar and the OS is just an earlier non-RTM version and there are no set forums for bugs within specific RTM vs RC/Beta OS's I posted here.
I'm not going to start a new thread because if, as you say there's no addressing of Adobe Staff here (and you haven't mentioned you have inside connections and will pass it on) what's the point? I will make one phonecall to Abobe in an effort to report this but there needs to be more open ways of bug reporting, even if it is a free product.

Acrobat Reader X security, comments disable

Hello, we need to work with Acrobat Reader X. We generate a pdf from a doc file and we add security to disable printing and we enable commenting, but when we open it with Acrobat Reader X we see that printing is disabled, but commenting is disable too. ¿It's a bug from Acrobat Reader X? we know that Acrobat Reader XI resolve it but we can't see in realease notes.

We add security from java with itext library. Wirth user and password:
PdfStamper stamp = new PdfStamper(reader, out);
stamp.setEncryption("".getBytes(),"PASSWORD".getBytes(), (PdfWriter.ALLOW_MODIFY_ANNOTATIONS), true);
If we put "stamp.setEncryption("".getBytes(),"PASSWORD".getBytes(), (PdfWriter.ALLOW_PRINTING), true);" we can see PRINTING enable but it we put " stamp.setEncryption("".getBytes(),"PASSWORD".getBytes(), (PdfWriter.ALLOW_MODIFY_ANNOTATIONS), true);" is always disabled.
We use Acrobat Reader 10.1.3 .
I read some discussions like http://blogs.adobe.com/vikrant/2010/12/can-i-comment-on-pdfs-using-the-free-adobe-reader/ but i need an oficial release note where we can read the bug.
ACROBAT X.
ACROBAT XI.
I know that with Acrobat 11.0 the problem is resolved, I tried with 10.1.4, 10.1.5, 10.1.6, 10.1.7, 10.1.8 and 10.1.9. I can't find the list of release notes of Acrobat Reader 11.0.

Acrobat Reader X stores PDFs in Temp-folder even when HTTP-headers say no-cache no-store

After updating from Acrobat Reader 9 to 10 we have noticed that PDFs viewed in the browser are left behind in the Temp-folder even after the browser has been closed.
Http-headers in the response from the server
Cache-Controls: no-cache,no-store,max-age=0,post-check=0,pre-check=0
Content-Type: application/pdf
Content-Disposition: inline; filename="xxxxxxxx.pdf"
Expires: 0
Pragma: no-cache
Folder: [User-folder]\AppData\Local\Temp
Filename-format: PDFxxx.tmp
Browsers: Firefox 3.6, Opera 11, Safari 5
Plugin: Acrobat Reader 10
Simply add a .pdf extension to the file and open again in Acrobat Reader. Since the server has set headers indicating that this PDF should not be stored locally, it is a severe security hole leaving traces of this PDF on the filesystem.
Is this a problem Adobe is aware of? When can we expect this to be fixed?
Regards,
Gustav

Hi Michael,
Thank you for you quick response!
In Acrobat 9, I cannot find the PDFs in the Temp-folder after the browser has been closed.
In Acrobat 10, PDFs are left behind in the Temp-folder even after browser close.
To me, this looks like a bug in Acrobat 10. Would you not agree?
Regards,
Gustav

Acrobat Reader 9.5.1 'Internal Error' [solved]

Hello, everybody.
To come quickly to the point, here is the problem / issue (hopefully, in the most concise and useful formulation).
OS: openSUSE Linux 12.1 with kernel v. 3.1.10-1.9 and (just for the report - even if I don't think it matters) Qt libraries v. 4.7.4-19.6.1. I say I don't think it matters, because I've already experienced this very same issue with openSUSE 11.0 (kernel 2.6.25.5 and Qt 4.4.0, with Acrobat Reader 8.1.3).
Acrobat Reader v. 9.5.1 (the release included with the distro).
The issue: when I try to overwrite an existing PDF document (i.e.: save 'foo.pdf' OVER a pre-existing copy of 'foo.pdf') I systematically get caught into the sequence 'the document already exists. Do you want to overwrite it?' -> yes -> 'An internal error has occurred' -> the document can't be overwritten.
Attempts to fix: I've already tried - suspecting I had possibly missed something during the installation process - to change the permissions of the '.adobe' preferences folder under my /home directory by issuing the usual 'chown -R xxx:yyy .adobe' command: with no result.
Any idea about the possible causes and workarounds?
BTW, while I was trying to recover the exact information about the program's version in the 'Help -> about Adobe Reader' menu, I've stumbled into another issue (which looks very much like a bug): that is, the program freezes if I try to read the 'Credits' information by pushing the suitable button in the red 'Adobe Reader 9' banner. Possible causes and remedies (aside from upgrading to the most recent version)?
Thank you very much in advance

Reason: solved

I add this one to my previous message, which solves the issue (and closes the thread).
The issue has been solved (on another system, though: that is, Fedora 17) by installing the original Acrobat Reader 9.5.1 from Adobe. With "original" I mean: not the .rpm archive enclosed in the OS DVD, but the one which can be downloaded directly from Adobe.
The method: one has to open a terminal and simply do the following:
# rpm -Uvh http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-i386-1.0-1.noarch.rpm
[as root] # yum install AdobeReader_enu
The version of Acrobat Reader which is installed by this method is complete with all the GTK suitable libraries: and actually works with no hassle, allowing to overwrite previous versions of the same file.
Now, however, I have to find some equivalent procedure under openSUSE: because it's a fact that even the AdbeRdr9.5.1-1_i486linux_enu.rpm file one usually downloads from here installs a copy of Acrobat Reader which shows the aforementioned issue, despite all the necessary graphical libraries being already installed in the system. Now, since this one is probably the .rpm archive a user finds in the main .rpm-based Linux distros, I add that it might be interesting if some Adobe engineer would try to dig a little deeper into this issue...

Shared review not working for Acrobat Reader

I can not believe have not been able to find an anwer to this, sorry if it has been asked before.
I am trying to setup shared review with clients running Acrobat Standard XI and Acrobat Reader XI, I am currently using a Sharepoint server for the review server if it matters.
When I send a shared review from Acrobat Standard XI to a user on Acrobat Reader XI, the user is unable to make shared review comments. The shared review will work when sent to other Standard or Pro XI users. Any ideas? I have been looking at this for sometime now, and know the user has full rights to the Sharepoint server. Is there some setting I am missing in Reader?
Thank you
Update:
I may be finding my own question, but really can not verify. Must you have Acrobat Pro for shared review to work with Reader? (I only have standard for pc)

Priyanja, your statement is ture. Reviews initiated with Acrobat Standard can only be participated through Acrobat Pro or Standard. However, this is NOT by design. It is a bug. The Adobe website makes this very clear. The site is: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/shared-pdf-document-reviews.html
Gather feedback faster than ever

Picture in PDF broken in Adobe Acrobat Reader for Windows

Hi,
I always thought that Adobe's PDF-format is the ultimative, interchangeable file format. Well, what a surprise: it isn't:
I have a picture in a PDF document.
It is displayed fine on my Mac in Preview and in Adobe Acrobat 8.
The picture has severe distortions on Windows (eg. current version of Adobe Acrobat Reader).
You can find this PDF here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/285107/Picture.pdf
Please let me know how I can fix this?
Furthermore I would love to know why even Adobe cannot manage to display the PDF correctly under Windows?
Thanks
Daniel

Ok, just to summarize the status of my PDF:
Doesn't work in Adobe Acrobat X Pro (Win XP)
Doesn't work in Adobe Acrobat Reader X (Win XP)
Works just fine in Evince (Win XP)
Works in Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro (Mac)
Works in Preview (Mac)
Works in Skim (Mac)
So most of the rederers tested display it correctly. For me that looks like a huge inconsitency in the Adobe Acrobat product family. It is not platform specific, because it does work in Windows as well (using other renderers).
I have two issues with that:
How come that Adobe Acrobat seems to be the only renderer with issues with this file?
Why do some version of Adobe Acrobat display it, while others don't?
To me that really sucks since I trusted the portability of PDF and my own Pro version of AA on my Mac far too much!
My lessons learnt here: Do not use Adobe products since they cannot be used consistently accross platforms (see Flash for another example).
Since the support policy of Adobe does only offer this forum free-of-charge even for obviously valid bugs, I decline to report this (again) as a bug due to my own time constraints.

Problem in openig some PDF file names in Acrobat Reader

I didn't test in other versions of the OS or with other versions of Adobe Acrobat Reader, but in Windows 7 Enterprise (with SP1) 64 bit, vith virtual apllications service installed, when a PDF file has in the name the letters CR (caps), tries to open Adobe Acrobat Reader with the VAppLaucher and says
"Before proceeding you must first lauch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User Licence Agreement",
even with the normal Adobe Acrobat Reader already configured in the local machine.
As soon as I change the name of the PDF file, it works without any problem.

Hi,
This bug was fixed with the latest release of Adobe reader i.e. Version 10.1.1 (Please refer to the Bug Fixes section in http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83708/attachments/Acrobat_Reader_ReleaseNote_10.1.1.pdf).
Please update to the latest version, by clicking on Help > Check For Updates or try downloading the patch from: http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.1.1/misc/AdbeRdrUpd1011.msp
Hope this helps
