Acrobat will no longer covert PDF to PNG format

Acrobat has functioned ok for about a year, then, when I needed to update some web pages, which look better using the PNG format, it refused to covert them from PDF.
I tried all the obvious cross checks, different files different & directories etc, and even logged into my system (win 7 Pro) with another profile, still no luck.
Did a repair, from the help menu - still not working.
Re-insatlled from the disk, all worked OK for about a week or so, then failed again.
any sugestions please?
Error Message - could not save page - error attempting to save page - may be insufficient disk space

Hi Sukrit
Seems all documents regardless of extension type, fail - Reinstall works for a time.
The link you provided solved the problem - see below, must be a bug that will no doubt be fixed at the next update.
This worked for me:
- Go to "Save as other" select Image -> PNG
- Click "Settings"
- Under Color Management change RGB from "Embed Profile" to "Off" and accept
Select destination, name and export.

Acrobat will open only one pdf at a time.

Hi. Can someone please clarify for me why Adobe Acrobat will open allow one pdf to be visible at a time. If addtional pdf's are opened they display as black. Means I cannot stitch multiple pdfs together.
Am using Windows 7 Pro and Acrobat X Pro. Attached below is screen shot of 2 pdfs open at same time. The one behind is fine while the one in front appears black but if was opened on its own would open fine.
Thanks

That looks like a graphics driver bug - try turning off/on hardware acceleration under Acrobat's preferences, and ensure your drivers are up to date.
Acrobat doesn't tend to play well with multiple-monitor setups, but it shouldn't do what you're seeing.

Printer will no longer print PDF document--"no pages selected" although specific pages were selected?

Brother printer will no longer print PDF document--"no pages selected" although I did specify pages. Have reviewed and tried Adobe trouble shooting, not helpful. Cannot print page as image. Brother says to contact Adobe

There may be some security issues related to the USPS PDFs.

I can't help with the scan/print problem. You seem to have done everything I would try.
I don't know if maybe using a registry cleaner would help.

after reloading adobe creative suite cs3 on my mac 10.4.11 acrobat will not open any pdfs it previously opened. help!

hello.   hey, thanks very much for writing back. i got some good info with a search or two. (info about what regedit is and what corresponds to it in OS X -- regedit allows you to edit "preference" keys for individual programs, OSX's equivalent for these keys are the .plists in User & System: Preferences and Application Support)
what i ended up doing was uninstalling Premiere Pro (not the suite, just PPro).   Then i deleted a few preference files:
from User /Preferences/Adobe:
com.adobe.AdobePremierePro.plist
com.Adobe.Premiere Pro.5.0.plist
and from System Preferences:
the file: Adobe Premiere Pro Prefs
and..
/.../Premiere Pro/5.0/...
AMEPrefs.xml     (i noticed that there's also a preference file in Media Encoder's own folder so i didn't sweat this one)
Debug Database.txt
Placeholder Preset.epr
PostEncodeCmds.pref
PresetCache.xml
Trace Database.txt
NOTE:
of course i don't know if deleting any files beyond the 2 .plist files in User Prefs was necessary, but... it seems to have worked.
I then reinstalled Premiere Pro CS5, and fired up an old project and i've got playback of HD and DV files, and snappy editing and rendering, so hopefully i'm good to go.   I'm just going to stick with v5.0.0 because i actually don't remember ever having any trouble with it, and i don't remember v5.0.4 adding anything i was 'missing' or 'needed'
hopefully, this thread will be useful for any future folks that run into trouble - and it's got a solution for both Windows and OS X
happy editing,
peace

Adobe update will no longer allow PDF's to be open from emails

Recently my computer updated Adobe, but since then I can no longer open pdf attachments to my emails. I have to save the document to my computer and then open it from there. I have uninstalled the program and reinstalled hoping that would help but it still crashes, every time I attemp to open an attachment. Does anyone know why this is the case and how I may be able to fix it?? Sooooo frustrating.

Yes, it's set to 0, I reinstalled XI again.
Not sure if this makes a difference or not, it's set to REG_DWORD 0x0000000 (0).
EDIT:
I just did another reboot, and Reader is now working. Don't know what fixed it, but it's fixed now. After this reboot, Flash Player did an update, but I really doubt that fixed my problem.

How can we create a plugin for Acrobat reader to convert a Pdf to Excel format?

Hi all,
I need to convert a pdf to excel format ! is it possible by a plugin in acrobat reader.
I know that it can be done with Acrobat Professional and i have to do the same with the Acrobat Reader?
Does the Acrobat Reader support file conversion plugins?
Sreejesh K V

Hi,
I don't know if Reader supports the onversion but you can easily check that : open an Excel file with Reader and check the result.
With Acrobat Pro when you open a document using Acrobat then it's automatically converted. If this functionality is supported with Reader you will have the same behavior.
Once it's supported you just have to open your document using Acrobat.exe (or Reader.Exe)
My mistake I understood the opposite. To check that Acrobat Reader support the conversion you just have to check in the Reader interface.
Regards,
Joe

My Adobe Acrobat will no longer let me save PDF documents

I own the Adobe Creative Suite 4 that comes with Adobe Acrobat, which for years has allowed me to save PDF documents. Last month I decided to test Adobe Acrobat Pro for 30 days to see how well it converted PDF documents, and have since decided against it. I did not subscribe or buy a license for it and would like to be able to use my old version of Adobe Acrobat to save PDF documents, but it no longer allows me to do so. I re-installed it from the disk but it still won't let me save PDF files. I do not want to purchase a program that I already have just to be able to save PDF documents and would like to know how to get mine to work again. I work on a Mac.
Thank you to anyone that can help me.

Hi Sara,
the Suite comes with Adobe Acrobat, and I've had it for a few years, I paid full price for the suite. However, it seems that after I downloaded the new Acrobat Reader the old one no longer shows up for me to show you the issue. The new one works. And I think it is very odd that it did that as well. My guess is that the trial version of Pro that I downloaded to test out messed with the old version I had, and it refused to let me use it for a while, then I was able to force it to come up but the "Save" option was just NOT highlighted as an option. I was even having a difficult time downloading the regular version of Adobe Acrobat up until today, after I posted on this website. Every time I tried it said it couldn't because I already had a version in my computer. But today it allowed me. Very bizarre. A definite glitch I think. Anyhow, I don't think we can proceed because I can't get my old version up, the new one probably wrote over the old one. So...thank you again for your interest, I really appreciate it.

Preview will no longer open PDFs in Safari

Hello Everyone,
Lately, when I open links PDFs, they will not open in Safari (only a blank page). I have to control click the link to download the file, but I want it to go back to normal by opening within my Safari browser.
I used to have Adobe Acrobat Reader 7 on my computer, but have since uninstalled it because of its slow response in opening files. I also had Acrobat Writer 5 on my machine at one point and was fairly happy with its performance when I needed it, but in an effort to fix my problem with PDFs not opening in Safari, I uninstalled it too.
In the beginning, I was very careful to not allow Acrobat not be default, but I think one of my co-workers used my machine and said yes to Acorbat's annoying message to make it default. Since then I am stuck with this issue. In any case, I used AppZapper to remove both Reader 7 and Writer 5 thinking my computer would be forced back into using Preview.
After that did not work, I tried deleting the preferences in my User library, but that has not worked either. I also tried a tip in Terminal to make the file at least download like they used to do pre-Tiger... No use either.
Does anyone know how I can reset my preferences for PDF links online to open in my Safari browser? I have already set Preview to be default on already downloaded files.
Also, I coped with the Ctrl-Click way for some time, but now i have a pdf link in an email and the file will not download that way. Hence I want it to work the way it did out of the box.
Please help.

You wrote: "No, by my I meant my Home > Library > Internet Plug-Ins folder. I double-checked and it is empty."Well, that's not the correct folder. Again, the Adobe plug-in would be in the Macintosh HD > Library > Internet Plug-Ins folder.
2. You wrote: "Ok, assuming I did uninstall Adobe Acrobat Reader incorrectly, how can I go about fixing that? Do I reinstall it and reuninstall?"You can try the instructions in the Adobe KB document "Manually remove Acrobat (6.x and 7.x on Mac OS X)", which states it also addresses Adobe Reader. Unfortunately, they appear incomplete since they also omit the plug-in I discussed. Also, the steps for using Find under the heading "On Mac OS X v10.4.x" are flawed because step "g" does not work due to a design feature/bug of Spotlight, in which Find is implemented under Tiger. Essentially, the issue is that the Visible/Invisible search criterion does not work.
At the worst, if the problem remains thereafter, you may have to reinstall Mac OS X via Archive and Install.
Good luck!

Suddenly my iMac will no longer open PDF files. I am not very good at technical details and sure need help. I can't open my bank statements.

Can anyone help?

In that case, instead of trying to open the PDF in a web page, right click the link and download the linked file. At least then you can read it.
I don't know what you may have changed. It may have been them changing something on their end, not you. You might create a new user on your Mac to test with. If you can read it in Safari from the new user account then you know the problem is something related to your user account. If it doesn't work there it is either nothing you can fix or it is a system-wide problem.

Will be on RAW, TIFF or PNG format in Z1 Compact?

Only that, it will be possible in the future by Android or Camera Software may be possible to save images in formats of higher quality than JPEG, to get more of G lens, sensors and 20 MPX.
A greeting.

As the Z1 Compact and Z1 are pretty much the same then there is no options available to save images in different file formats - However you may be able to have this feature using a 3rd part app from the Play store but whether or not the as you have said, The G Lens sensors will work in conjunction with 3rd party apps I don't know - The only way to find out is to test - Which then enables yourself should another member have a similar question be able to answer with knowledge of the subject

Acrobat Pro 9.1 no longer creates PDFs from Word 2007

I upgraded from Acrobat 7 to 9 specifically to gain more control over settings when making PDFs from Word 2007. This worked as I had hoped until the 9.1 vulnerability upgrade was installed. Now it will no longer create PDFs from Word 2007 documents at all.
From within Word 2007, when I click on "Create PDF" (whether in the Office menu or Acrobat toolbar) it asks for a file name, but after I click "Save" does nothing. This is true even for the simplest possible document, using the "Default" settings for PDF "Preferences."
If I right click the file name of the document in Windows Explorer, with Word 2007 closed, and click on "Convert to Adobe PDF" in the menu, it starts and the staus box comes up, but after a few seconds quits and displays "An unexpected error occurred. PDFMaker was unable produce the Adobe PDF."
I can still "Save As" PDF in Word 2007, but this gives me little control over the format.
Is there any way that I can get Acobat 9.1 to do what I bought it for, and what Adobe advertises it will do?

Try printing to the Adobe PDF printer, the more fundamental process (PDF Maker is a preprocessor for the printer). If that does not work, then try with print-to-file selected. Open the file in Distiller and see if the PDF is created. If the latter happens, then check for AcroTray running in the background. It is required to automate the process and is needed by PDF Maker.

Acrobat Plug-In - Wont load PDF pages in browser

Not sure when it started happening, however either after upgrading to Safari 4.0.2 or installing the entire Master Collection of CS4, Safari will no longer load PDF's into a window. The error message reads:

Can someone help me out. Am trying to cross debug a website for IE8 and Safari but any PDF content in the webpage that loads separately causes the application to quite with a Data Execution Protection error.

Thanks for your help I found the SIMBL directory and deleted a file called AcidSearch.Bundle which had a date of 2006, The SIMBL directory was not deleted just the file .
Safari now loads error free ! The path for anyone else with the issue is below.

FF will no longer ask me before trying to open Acrobat files, and will not ask me to save them either. How can I restore the ability to see pdf's with FF?

I have Acrobat 6.0 Professional installed on my PC (Vista-64) and after the last FF update, it will no longer open or allow me to view pdfs. "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser. Please exit Acrobat/Reader and exit your Web Browser and try again."
Under "Options" I set my preference with pdfs to "Always Ask" but the documentation on FF states that it will attempt to open the file first, before asking me to save it, which basically means that it will never ask me to save it - just ask me to exit the browser and Acrobat. I have not been able to access PDF content on FF since, and will have to change to Chrome this evening, since I utilize pdf content often.

I have used Image Capture to scan images/documents and then saved them as either PDFs or PNG files. For some reason, just this past week Image Capture will no longer save the file. It scans, and the Scan Results window pops up, but it won't save file.

I have used Image Capture to scan images/documents and then saved them as either PDFs or PNG files. For some reason, just this past week, Image Capture will no longer save the file. It scans, and the Scan Results window pops up, but it won't save file.
The file name has no special character in it, just letters and no spaces.
I have done this in the past and it has worked, but now it will not.
I have not upgraded any software, that I am aware of.
After scanning, the Image Capture pops up the Scan Results with the file name in the window, but neither the Scan Results nor the Image Capture window responds to inputs. The Image Capture window is frozen, with only the "Overview" and "Cancel" buttons active (but non-responsive).
Is this a software issue or a scanner hardware issue? I am using a HP Photosmart C6200 series printer/scanner on a network using a Time Capsule airport.
Thanks.

I had the same problem.
Got a 90% fix. Apparently the Mavericks preferences won't work with Yosemite, so I just deleted the Image Capture preferences.
Unfortunately, the "Scan to" folder seems to be permanently set to the Pictures folder.
1. Quit Image Capture
2. Go to Finder > Go > Home, which opens up your home folder (named after your user name)
3. Open Library > Preferences > com.apple.ImageCapture.plist - Drag this file to the Trash
4. Start "Image Capture", click "Details" and change all your settings as you prefer
5. Quit and restart "Image Capture". Notice it remembers all your settings except "Scan to" folder. It insists on saving to "Pictures".
That's as far as I was successful. I tried changing the "Scan to" folder to "Desktop", but on launch, Image Capture always sets it back to "Pictures".
This is what I tried:
6. Download and install "Pref Setter" from http://www.nightproductions.net/prefsetter.html
7. Quit "Image Capture". Right-click on "com.apple.ImageCapture.plist" and open with Pref Setter.
8. Search for "Pictures", which finds "~/Pictures" (the tilde character at the start means your home directory).
9. Double-click on "~/Pictures" and change it to the folder you prefer. I like "~/Desktop"
10. Choose File > Save then Quit from Pref Setter. Note that re-opening the plist file still shows "~/Desktop"
11. Start up "Image Capture" -- on startup, "Image Capture" sets "Scan to" folder to "Pictures"
I consider this a bug.
