Acrobat Reader PDF Files

How to search PDF files on the iMac  -- not the search inside the file, but to be able to find the file itself.

By using Spotlight, for example. I prefer using EasyFind 4.9.3, myself. In the Finder evoke Spotlight by using the Search field of COMMAND-F.

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

    hi there
    try the vi
    ..vi.lib\platform\browser.llb\Open Acrobat Document.vi
    it uses DDE or the command line to run an external application (e.g. Adobe Acrobat)
    Best regards

  • Why won't Firefox launch Acrobat in order to read pdf files from a website?

    My Firefox browser used to launch Acrobat to read pdf files from the web. Now it won't do it. Why not? What do I do to get it working again?

  • I am unable to read pdf files using Acrobat Reader on my MAC OS X. Any suggestions?

    How do I read pdf files using my MAC OS X?

    You can read pdf files with preview. Select a pdf document, right click on it, and choose Preview. You can also get info and select to choose Preview for all.
    You can also install Adobe Reader 10.1.3 for Lion. It will also install a plug-in to read pdf docs in the browser.

  • Adobe flash player and reading pdf files.

         I've recently been having issues with Safari reading online pdf files and loading up sites using adobe flash player.
         I've somehow tracked down a temporary solve by going into Safari's "preferences", then the security tab.
         Where it shows "internet plug-ins" I have it checked so it can load adobe flash. But when it comes to reading pdf files (adobe reader)
         I have to uncheck "internet plug ins". So in turn I can read the pdfs, but not use adobe flash player.
         There seems to be a conflict between the adobe reader and flash player that I can use both at the same time.
         Any suggestions on how to correct this issue?
         Here's a screenshot of what I have. And if I have to delete one of these plug-ins how can I do this as I don't see any options to do so.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
    Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
    Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • Adobe acrobat 9 pdf files wont print wirelessly using Snow Leopard

    I am able to use Acrobat using a wireless router.
    Try the following:
    Get the latest update from Manufacturer. Then go to printer setup utility and remove the current version. ( Do this anyway even if the same version).
    Next plug Printer into a direct USB Connection. Now install Driver. Go back to Printer Setup Utility. and add Printer.
    Now print a document, to verify printer works.
    Now quit application, then shut down Computer.
    Now switch usb printer connector from USB connector on computer to USB connector on your router.
    Restart Computer.
    Now open an application that uses a printer and open a document. go to Printer and Look for the Following:
    Disregard the printer I have listed here that's my printer. If you see a Printer like this add to list by choosing the printer.
    Now go to Printer Setup verify it has been added. Make it the Default printer.
    Now Acrobat "should" be able to print from you printer.

  • How to export to acrobat 9 pdf file to acrobat 5 pdf file ?

    Hello,
    I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended
    while exporting acrobat 9 pdf file to PDF/X( to open it on earlier version)
    it is giving following message
    "The document has been saved, however , it could not be converted according to the selected standard profile: Convert to PDF/X.
    Please use Preflight with the profile 'Convert to PDF/X' in order to identify those properties of the document which prevent it
    from being compliant to this profile."
    when opening this converted document to Acrobat 5.0
    it is giving following error
    "There was an error while opening this document the file is damaged and could not be repaired.".
    Please help me.
    Thanks

    You mention PDF/X. Have you tried to convert it to one of the other Acrobat standards? As I recall, AA5 does not have PDF/X as an option (at least it is not in my list for AA5). That is likely the problem that you are being told to fix. It suggests using PreFlight to fix that issue and then possibly save the PDF to version AA5.

  • How can I read pdf files in linux?

    I know the pdf files can be read by Adodb acrobat,but i can not find the software for linux,How can I download the similar tools ?
    Thanks for advance.

    You can download AcrobatReader fro Linux from adobe.com like the versions of rother OS'es.
    however if you want a nicer UI than Acrobat consider using gv with ghostscript. They might already be installed on your system, since they are part of most Linux distributions.
    It's worthwhile to upgrade Ghostscript to the most recent version, othervise you will be unable to read pdf files that utilizes the newest fads from Adobe.

  • Why can I no longer download and read .pdf files

    I have never had any problems downloading and reading .pdf files until I 'upgraded' the Adobe reader to version 11. Now all attempted downloads fail because "I don't have the necessary helper application or even C:\DOCUME~1\Will-o\LOCALS~1\Temp\Back Channel II - The Vietnam Betrayal - Chaps 1&2.pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences. What in the world is going on and how do I fix it?
    Under 'Tools - Applications - Adobe Acrobat Document, the I've selected 'Use Adobe Reader.' However since I also have Adobe Acrobat 8.3, I've tried substituting that for the Reader, but that doesn't work either. Please help.

    Brilliant! Problem solved! Thanks so much.

  • Read PDF files in Safari on 10.5 --- HELP PLEASE!

    I accidently deleted the Internet Plug-in to read PDF files in 10.5. The plug in is located in /Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    I believe it is called "Adobe Acrobat ???" (or something like this)
    If someone could post it or e-mail it to me, I'd be one grateful person!
    Thanks!!
    e-mail to deut3221 AT mac.com
    Thanks.

    you can download Adobe Reader for free from Adobe.com. It will read PDF files, you shouldn't need someone to email you a copy.

  • I removed chrome 10 and newly installed FF4 final, and I can't read PDF files within the browser. There was no problem in Chrome.

    I removed chrome 10 and newly installed FF4 final, and I can't read PDF files within the browser. There was no problem in Chrome. I can't even see the acrobat reader plugin in the plugins page. Acrobat 10 is already installed in my PC. Every time I try to read a PDF file on the web, FF tries to download it instead.

    As recommended above by Bernd Alheit, I posted this on the Adobe Reader forum. There, I received the advice to repair the installation under the help menu, which I did and it fixed the problem.
    Similar to your solution but found it's a fix found under "HELP" menu and not Add/Remove.
    Thank you.

    What exactly is "it"; can you post a screenshot of that?
    Other things you can try...
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html
    ...or wait and see if the next Reader version fixes the problem (likely to be released later today).
