Acrobat/ reader issue

Hi, I`m using Acrobat to make a large portfolio (about 3 gig) involiving tiff pages of textg and films, but when I click on the Acrobat inserted links when viewing the file in Reader, the screen goes blank blank back to the top menu bar: any ideas as to what Im doing wrong?
(plus Ive posted previously regarding Adobe stuff ie After Efffects+my yet to be understood Flash, but my computer went down; anyone who replied to my posts+ didnt get a response, I can only apologize; believe me I work in Sales so I know every little cookie can help sometimes)

Have you tried creating a smaller version of your Portfolio to see if the links work properly in Reader X? They are working for me in a basic Acrobat 9 Portfolio opened in Reader X with links in one PDF linking to a place in another.
Can you share a little bit more about the structure of your Portfolio? How many files, what types, files in folders, how many folder levels deep, things like that?
I would recommend testing it out with a smaller (20MB) version of your Portfolio to see how it goes. If you find that it works in the "simple" version and not the large one I would log a bug: The form for bug reports can be found here https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&promoid=E WQQL
Using Acrobat 9 along with Reader X is perfectly fine and this functionality should be compatible between the versions (there are things that are not, but this should work), if the links are not working in Acrobat/Reader X it would be a bug.
Thanks,
Josh

Satellite L350D-12M - acrobat reader issue

When i install acrobat reader to my laptop it takes over most of my files and stops all the other files from working.

Hi
To be honest I dont understand your acrobat reader issue.
In most cases acrobat installation should run smoothly without any problems.
If something went wring during the installation then remove the acrobat reader from the OS, then clean the windows and registry using the CCleaner and then try to install this software again
Bye

There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat Reader etc etc error code 103?? Help Please

Adobe Acrobat Reader issue as above - downloaded latest version again still issues. I am using an old Acer laptop with Windows XP which I only now use for printing

The etc etc refers to the usual standard message as follows - also re Acrobat I was merely repeating the message given.
'there is a problem with Adobe Acrobat Reader. If it is running exit and try again (103:103)' this was the exact message given. I had version 11.0.08 which I have now deleted and am using an earlier version 10.0.4 which seems to have resolved the problem for the time being

Performance Issues with Acrobat Reader 11.0.0.2 when secure mode is enabled

Hello All,
We are experiencing sporadic issues with Acrobat 11.0.0.2 across our domain, users are reporting performance issues when opening PDF documents whether locally or from a network share.
We have found that turning off Secure Mode helps towards reducing this delay and in the cases it doesn't we are repairing the installation and/or reinstalling the application.
Due to the security implications we need to leave this turned on, I am wondering if anyone has encountered this issue and what steps were taken towards resolving it?
I also wonder whether the white list function in the new release 11.0.0.3 would be a solution to this issue?
Kind Regards,
Ryan McCarty

No probelm, so....
We had no problems with Adobe Reader 9 and 10, we encountered the issues when upgrading to 11.0.0.2.
Initially we found that turning off the Protected Mode, helped but did not resolve the issue.
We tried;
1. Turn off protected mode - issue still present
2. Clearing the recent file registry using the below registry path and deleting the keys underneath it.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\AVGeneral\cRecentFiles (this does not turn recent files off permanently). - works but needs clearing regularly
3. Turning off welcome screen by creating - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\FeatureLockDown\cWelcomeScreen - works to improve app open speed.
4. uninstall/reinstall of 11.0.0.2 - works most likley due to the recent files being cleared.
5. upgrade to 11.0.0.3 - issue still present
Following reboots the issue is still present.
When Adobe Reader is the only application open this issue is still present.
As mentioned I have no systems available which I could test this issue using 11.0.0.1 as we have fixed them, albeit temporarily using the reinstall method.
I am concious that this issue is going to reoccur once that cache (recent files) builds back up because the fix above (#2) is clearing the recent files cache NOT disabling it.

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.

Adobe Acrobat Reader 10.1.2 Print Issues - Windows Crash Error (2 Sided)

Have recently had issueswith our upgrades from 10.1.1 to 10.1.2 in regards to the following:
When printing 2 sided on a Fuji Xerox Firefly C4400 Atheros, application crashes after printing first 4 pages.
Thus, have tried the patch fix that was recommended on cpsid_92870 however this has not fixed the problem.
Have also tried the solution with the duplexing but still same issue, Windows crashes.
Have also tried solution to remove Windows patch KB4332667 and still same issue.
Screen shots will be provided upon request with the errors.
Currently running:
Windows XP SP3
Adobe Acrobat Reader 10.1.2
Printer Drivers are the latest and over 500 users on network. 485 are working on 10.1.1 which do not have this issue.
Is there any solution or 10.1.3 patch release that will address this issue?
Last Adobe user to work on this was Atul.

Sonal2890, thanks for your inquiry and I will try to provide as much information as possible.
1. What happens if inspite of using 'Print on both sides', you check Duplex setting from Properties dialog (As you do previously)?
      The Adobe Reader X Shuts down and is unable to print and displays a message stating it has incurred a problem. Please note, we are running IE7.
2. What happens if you print with any other application (Word/notepad)
     The documents print fine. IT is only when you print this particular document which is enabled in protected mode and double sided. Have tried the patch and the resolution of unticking the duplex methodology and the issue still persists.
     Crash Logs have already been submitted already. Have added the SEnd Error Report that was provided when the error occurs. The PDF stopped printing after page 6 of a 236 page document and provided the error above.

Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 Printing Issue,

Hello,
There is an issue I have been facing now a days. Our company application has been upgraded from oracle 6I to 10g. The output thereby comes as .pdf which is then printed on a pre-printed stationary.
The situation is there are two printers with two paper size settings and two different stationaries (A4 and letter) installed on each user.
The issue is when a user selects an A4 printer from the print dailog box of acrobat reader, the preview box won't get updated with the new page lengths, instead would print the output on the last page length settings. Suppose he selects A4 manually from the printer properties it would print fine. But again in the next print when he needs to print letter, acrobat would print with the A4 (last settings) and thus the print-out wont fit on the pre-printed stationary.
For each customer there is one A4 and one letter print and thereby a user can't affort each time to go in the printer properties and give the page length so acrobat reader would update its preview.
I would be really appreciated if someone would give me a permanant work around for this.
I apologize for such a long explanation, and also if this topic is already posted elsewhere.
Thanks.

Issue with printing with Acrobat Reader X

Hello, we recently upgraded to Acrobat Reader X on our Terminal Servers and we are having a print issue. When a PDF is being printed, on any printer, the same fonts are not printing like how the pdf is being displayed on the screen. This is only happening to some of our users and for others the PDF is printing correctly. Has anyone experienced this issue? Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this? Thanks for any help.

Hello craigsat,
You are offtopic. Your problem is not the same as topic starter. You have to make your own topic. Sorry for my reply on your post, my mistake.
Acroblabchi,
Quick responce! I just tested running as admin, but that gives the same result, bad print format. We updated from version 8 to X last week. Print as Image gives a good result, and is good as a workaround, but not a permanent solution.
Gr. Paul.

Issue printing with Acrobat Reader 9.4.2

Hi
I am having a problem when printing some files. The fonts are not the same as in the screen. The strange is that when i am sending the printing from the desktops everything is fine but from the laptops the fonts are incomprehensible in the paper. All the machines are Dell, the laptops are Latitude E6410 and the desktops are Optiplex 745. All the computers have the same configuration.
I also tested:
     Different Printers (HP) the default printers in the company are Sharp
     Different Drivers of the printers
     All the Versions of Acrobat Reader
     Print as Image
but still no luck when printing from laptop
With Foxit reader i don't have any issue when printing from laptop
Please advise
Thanks

Hey David,
Yeah, I also found the .3 update to much joy the other day, but I fairly quickly arrived at the same conclusion as you However our company has filed a support ticket with Adobe Developer Support describing the error. Also I set up a simple test-page that hopefully will expose the error for the Adobe staff.

When I get any news I'll be sure to let you know.

Issues with newer version of Acrobat Reader

I'm not looking for advice or a fix for this problem. I'm simply posting it so that hopefully, the folks at Adobe will get a clue & take the issues with their software seriously. The real fix here is for them to quit ignoring bugs in their software and correct the code. Anyway...
In the most recent versions of Acrobat Reader (looks like specifically to X & XI), it seems to be hit or miss as to whether Reader will open PDF attachments in Outlook email. Typically, when I double-click on a PDF attachment, nothing happens. An instance of AcroRd32.exe is created as a process (which hangs), but the PDF file doesn't open. If I make the mistake of double-clicking on the file again, another instance of AcroRd32.exe sucks up more of my system resources. This will occur for each time I double-click on the attachment. Sometimes I get lucky, and it will open the PDF file. Sometimes, if I right-click on the attachment and select open, it will do so. Most times, it just does the same thing as double-clicking.
I've scoured the forums, searched online... Lots of people have reported this or similar problems. Solutions have been offered up, which don't work for most users. etc., etc., etc.
It's just like the issue that Adobe has had for years with Acrobat - The software is notorious for remaining in memory as a process, long after you've closed the PDF file you opened. And likewise, for each PDF file you open, yet another instance of the software loads into & consumes memory.
Adobe has had problems like this for years. They never have taken it seriously, they never choose to fix it.
So, as I said in the beginning of the post - I'm not looking for a fix. I came up with my own fix - I deleted version XI, located an old copy of 9.4 & installed it.
Nope, I'm not looking for solutions or support. I simply wanted to ***** about it.
Doubt Adobe will even notice the post, and if they do, they'll just operate like they always have... Hope that their sloppy code just magically fixes itself.

This is a user forum, and not the place to file bug reports to Adobe. So you are right: your post won't be noticed by the Acrobat developers. Nor would it give them enough information to reproduce the problem.
P.S. I never had a problem opening Outlook attachments with Adobe Reader. If I had, I would start by disabling Protected Mode, which is the most common cause for a multitude of problems in Adobe Reader.

Fonts issue with Acrobat Reader 9

We have recently pushed Acrobat Reader 9 in our environment on Windows XP Pro. One of user reported a strange issue, he is opening a PDF file in Acrobat Reader 9 but he is getting half fonts all across the document but if we are opening the same file in Reader 7 we can see complete fonts, also at the same time if we copy and paste them in MS Word or notepad we are getting complete fonts. I have observed that in Reader 9 one option is missing that we have in Reader 7 i.e, "use local fonts" under Documents menu, but not sure if this is the reason behind the issue.
Please refer to attached screenshot.
Please help/suggest.
Thanks in advance
Vikas

The option 'use local fonts' is available in Adobe Reader 9.

Adobe Acrobat Reader ActiveX Zoom Issue

I can't seem to figure out a way to calculate the current zoom percentage. When the document comes up it's auto sized for width. However I have no way of knowing what the zoom value is. How do I figure out what the current zoom is? I'm using the Adobe Acrobat Reader ActiveX control. I can't use the full version or anything that requires a royalty because this application will be distributed to thousands of clients. So to the vendors that want me to buy their product don't waste your time... Thank you in advance for any assistance.

"there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. if it is running please exit and try again. (523.523)

We are getting the following error "there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. if it is running please exit and try again. (523.523)" and a gray screen appears (Image not viewable) with multiple users. We are using Adobe Reader XI (11.0.05) and (11.0.06). The current workaround is to log off the website and log back in. Once the user logs back in, the pdf will appear. However it occurs anywhere from 2-8 times in a day. Anyone else having this issue or know of another workaround? Any suggestion with how to fix? Please help!!

Hi Valerie,
Please let me know the version of Adobe Acrobat/Reader & operating system installed on your computer?
Also, try this:-
Launch Adobe Reader/Acrobat.
From the menu, choose Edit -> preferences -> General
Uncheck the option for "Enable Protected Mode at startup"
Restart the Adobe Reader and web browser.

I have installed adobe flash player. I can not open the file. In plugins under tools it is not showing. It shows acrobat reader being there but not flash player. Any ideas?

Flasher Player should be listed as a plugin in tools for it to work?
