Acrobat Reader for Ipad

I downloaded the acrobat reader app for iphone/ipad and tried to open a form from a website and was given the message that I needed a later version of the pdf viewer and given the following link, www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html . This does nothing, anyone else have this problem or a solution. When I say it does nothing I mean it just takes me back to the app store which say that it is installed and the latest version.

Bernd is correct, the Adobe Reader for ios does not support filling XFA forms (forms created by Livecycle Designer). If you create the form using the form eding features in Acrobat (or another tool that creates non-xfa acroforms), then you should be able to fill it in the mobile reader.

  • How can I activate the text reflow feature in Acrobat Reader For Ipad

    I have used Acrobat Reader for reading ebooks for a long time. Now in my Ipad I cannot find a way to use the text reflow feature. Can any doy help me?

    Sorry, no text reflow on an iPad. Most PDF files don't reflow. I read tons of PDFs on Macs and never reflow them.

  • Acrobat X Pro Drop-down Fields Do Not Appear on Adobe Reader for iPad. Help!

    Hello,
    I am having a problem getting drop-down fields to appear on Adobe Reader for iPad. Basically, I need to create a form that includes drop-down fields, with the end result being a form that can be viewed and completed on an iPad, using the Adobe Reader app. Above all else, the end result needs to be viewable on an iPad.
    I created a form using Acrobat X Pro within which drop-down fields work flawlessly. However, when I try to open this form on an iPad, the drop-down fields do not even appear. I have done some investigating on the Web (including these forums) and come to understand that this has to do with javascript limitations on Apple products, but have yet to discover a solution to my problem.
    To summarize: does anyone know how to make drop-down fields appear in Abobe Reader for iPad app? Or, does anyone know a workaround in which I could have a drop-down menu (or something similar) in my form and have it work on Adobe Reader for iPad?
    Thanks in advance for the help. I took on this project from my boss' boss, so I'd really like to get this done for him.

    Hello GKaiseril,
    Thanks for the reply. I experienced the issue running the most recent version of the Adobe Mobile Reader app. I'm not sure I can convince the client to use anything else, but its worth a shot.
    All I need is a simple drop-down list (multiple fields in the document) with 4 options that the user can select and submit as a form. Is this something EZ Pdf reader can do? Also, is EZ Pdf Reader free? (the reason I ask is I am an Android user and do not readily have access to a iPad).
    Thanks again.

  • Acrobat reader for ios 5.1

    How do I get an acrobat reader for my iOS 5.1?

    B_Louck,
    Would you tell us the exact version number of iOS on your 1st gen iPad?  See Settings > General > About > Version.  Is it 5.0, 5.1, or 5.1.1?
    I have a 1st gen iPad running iOS 5.1.1.  I was able to install Adobe Reader version 11.0.1 a few minutes ago.
    Have you ever installed Adobe Reader for iOS on your iPad using the same Apple ID (that is shown in Settings > Store)?  If this is the first time installing Adobe Reader for iOS using the Apple ID, you need to use iTunes to download and associate the app with the Apple ID first.
    Please see Reply #6 in the following post.
    Re: How do I get a version of Adobe Reader for an IPod touch with IOS 6.1.6
    If you have installed Adobe Reader for iOS before, the app should appear in App Store's Purchased section.  You can tap the cloud icon to download and install it.
    Please try downloading again if you do not see the 2-button dialog for the first time.

  • Adobe Reader for Mac vs. Adobe Reader for iPad

    Hi,
    I have a problem with Adobe Reader for iPad. The pdf-file works perfect with Acrobat Reader on my iMac.
    The pdf-file has an option to change a number of parameters in counting the total cost for owning a car.
    Obviously, there is some interactivity function inbedded in the file.
    When I opened the same pdf-file in Adobe Reader app for iPad the functionality is lost and it shows just
    a blank page.
    Has anyone an explanation of this problem or suggestions of a solution?
    I have tried different pdf-apps i.e. Goodreader without any solution.
    Can the problem be Flash-related?
    Best regards
    Janne

  • Adobe reader for iPad disappointed me

    I cant beleive it, Forms, links, bottoms… don't work with Adobe reader for ipad. ¿Why?

    Adobe Reader on desktop has a primary goal to open any valid PDF file, not matter how complex the contents. As such it uses a lot of resources and relies on certain platform features only found on desktop and laptop machines. The install footprint is huge, memory consumption is significant, but it doesn't matter.
    Adobe Reader on mobile cannot currently get anywhere close to that - not only are the hardware resources not yet up to the task (storage, CPU power, RAM and GPU features are feeble compared to even basic laptops), but there are limitations imposed by the platform owners on which elements can be included. For example on iOS, Reader can't currently display PDF files that contain Flash content or embedded JavaScript, and since many forms rely on scripting (for calculated fields or submit actions) it's simpler right now to say "feature X is not supported" than support part of the feature and have a case-by-case response to every document. Since opening everything isn't an option, the mobile versions of Adobe Reader go for lightweight installers and fast performance, with a much-reduced feature set. You may not agree that's the correct line to take, but it's what Adobe are doing. I'm sure if the app had a 500MB install footprint, people would be up in arms even if it did open every file on the planet.
    The Acrobat Family (including Reader) is an enterprise application group, so there are  features in the new iOS app specifically intended to appeal to that type of user, such as integration with LiveCycle DRM. For enterprise, a simple, global "no" to a feature is much less strain on IT support than a complex "maybe".
    What will happen in the future, I cannot say - but remember this is the first build for iOS, so it will certainly evolve over time. Personally I'd love to see forms support on the iPad, but done properly - AcroForms, XFA, scripting, signatures, etc. - and that's a huge challenge. I'd also love to see rich media and Flash support, but that's politics. I don't do politics.
    Customer feedback is very welcome, positive or negative. It'd also be great to hear what types of documents people are viewing with the mobile apps, and what single feature they'd most like to see added.

  • What do I need to sign into my Adobe account on every* Acrobat Reader for iOS update?

    Hello,
    Every time I update Acrobat Reader for iOS on iPad with iOS 6.1.x from the AppStore, I need to sign into Adobe account every single time! It's getting annoying.

    In the past, you have had to re-authenticate your Acrobat.com account on update if you are using the Acrobat.com features. This is something we are working on and hope to improve in future updates. Thank you for the feedback.

  • How put some PDFs in Acrobat Reader on iPad ? On the Adobe Cloud  ?

    How put some PDFs in Acrobat Reader on iPad ? On the Adobe Cloud  ?
    Thanks !!

    pierreswaggy,
    If you have a PDF document opened in some other app on your iPad/iPhone, you can use the "Open In" feature to open it in Adobe Reader for iOS.
    For iPad, see How to open PDF documents in Adobe Reader for iOS (iPad on iOS 7 or 8 version)
    For iPhone, see How to open PDF documents in Adobe Reader for iOS (iPhone on iOS 7 or 8 version)
    If you have PDF documents on your Mac or Windows desktop/notebook computer, you can use Acrobat.com (cloud storage) to share them with your computer(s) and mobile device(s).
    On your Mac/Windows computer
    Open a web browser.
    Go to Acrobat.com (https://cloud.acrobat.com).
    Sign in with your Adobe ID.
    Upload your files to Acrobat.com.
    You can also use the desktop version of Acrobat or Adobe Reader to open a PDF document from Acrobat.com or save to Acrobat.com.  Please check the File menu or the toolbar for the options.
    On your iPad/iPhone
    Launch Adobe Reader for iOS.
    Go to the Reader home screen.
    Tap My Account (in the lower left corner).
    Sign in with your Adobe ID.
    Tap Acrobat.com in the left pane to see the files on Acrobat.com in Reader.
    If you have a lot of large PDF documents on your computer, it would be easier and faster to transfer them to your iPad/iPhone at once (instead of one document at a time) using iTunes.
    See How to transfer PDF documents from your computer to your iPad/iPhone.
    The documents transferred to your iPad/iPhone using iTunes will appear in the Documents section.  Because they are stored locally on your iPad/iPhone.  Please note that any locally stored documents will be erased by iOS, if you uninstall (instead of update) the Reader app.
    Please let us know if you have additional questions or any problems.

  • Adobe Acrobat Reader for Chrome OS

    Will Adobe release a version of their Adobe Acrobat Reader for Chrome OS?
    We are currently experiencing problems with our clients that are unable to open certificate encrypted and signed PDFs with their built-in Chrome OS PDF viewer (certificate to decrypt the PDF is provided separately to the client).
    If anybody has a workaround or the solution for this problem, then please respond.

  • Attach images in Adobe Reader for iPAd

  • Drop down fields on Adobe reader for iPad

    Hello,
    Regarding using an order form in adobe reader for iPad, I am able to check boxes, free form text, etc. but drop down fields are not retaining selection.  I will click drop down, make selection, and field is still blank. If I select the same drop down my choice is checked. When I email form the field remains blank.
    Any help would be appreciated!!

    Hello,
    Thank you for the response.  I am currently using Adobe 11.01.  I believe I have found the problem.  Our company utilizes an app names "Showpad" for our sales teams.  Within Showpad you can open PDF's, however any interactive functionality is not available.  To solve for this, you can open a PDF within Showpad and then "open with" a different app.  In this case, I opened with Adobe Reader.  It looks like all the functionality returns to the document minus that drop down issue I am experiencing.
    I tried to open the same order form from my email using Adobe Reader and all functionality is available (including drop down).
    It looks as though something is getting lost between the Showpad app and Adobe Reader app.

  • Html link to pdf works ok on mac but not on ipad. adobe reader for ipad downloaded.

    HTML link to pdf works ok on Mac but not on ipad. Adobe Reader for ipad downloaded. What's wrong?

    Hi pwillener,
    Thank for reply. The pdf’s are in a subfolder “PDF” of the folder holding the web page. The web page itself uses
    . This works in full size computer browsers but not in an iPad.
    My excursion through the search engine has produced the idea of adding #page = requesting page to the URL but I have not had time to try it perhaps without the = sign.

  • Card Reader for iPad 2?

    Hi there,
    I'm a photographer that carries my iPad 2 16gb everywhere with me.
    So when I'm out and about I want to be able to transfer and look at my pictures on my iPad.
    I want to take some pictures and plug in a card reader to tranfer the photo's on to my iPad 2.
    I have a camera that takes a SD card and one that takes a Compact Flash. I can't find anywhere that does a card reader for Ipad that accepts both a SD card and Compact Flash?
    Anyone got one?
    Thanks
    Lauren

    There might be some third party CF readers but for your CF camera it may be easier to use the USB attachment. I have a CF reader that works, but it's a vivitar one that's not made anymore.
