Acrobat X and Windows 8

Can you use Adobe Acrobat X standard on Windows 8?

yes, but you may need to use compatibility mode if you have trouble installing.

  • Problems with Acrobat 8 and Windows 7 64 bit

    Hi all
    I need help with Acrobat 8 and Windows 7.
    During the installation I'm asked to locate the file AdobePDF.dll on the disk. Selected the file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 8.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AMD64.
    The installation finishes without any other problem.
    The problem arises when I want to create a pdf from a Word document. I'm using Office 2007. When I select he option to create a pdf from a file, I get message in the attached image.
    If I try to used the Adobe PDF printer from within Word, nothing happes. The small printer icon apprears in the Windows task bar, but that is all. If I double click on the icon, I can see the print job, but that's all. There is no dialog box that asks me to save the file.
    Assistance will be apppreciated.

    Acrobat 8 is not certified for Win7, particularly the x64 version. If you got the installation to go, the first step is to update AA8 to at least AA8.2. The x64 with XP required at least AA8.2 and I suspect that has not changed. I would suggest updating to the latest, either from the help menu (until no more updates are available) or by downloading the updates from the adobe.com>downloads page. For the latter, download ALL updates after your current version and install them in ORDER. They are not cummulative in most cases. You only need to reboot after the final update. The updates may get you going. If not, you may simply have to upgrade to AA9 or search for what others have been able to do in your situation.

  • Acrobat 3D and Windows 2000

    Everyone that has the Windows 2000 operating system has problems with the Acrobat 3D models. The models were created using Windows XP and were tested using Windows XP. I am assuming that Acrobat 3D and Windows 2000 are incompatible. Adobe states Windows 2000 compatibility. Does anyone know why users with Windows 2000 are having problems with my models?
    Thanks

    Yes, I have checked the version and they have Reader 7.0.8. I also checked that they have the latest version of DirectX. Of course there are a number of remote Windows2000 users, so I haven't the ability to check the service pack installations, graphics drivers, and so on. Many of these users are schedule to be upgraded to new laptops (with Windows XP installed).
    I also have the most recent version of Acrobat 3D and have installed all the updates.
    It seems the problems are different among different users, but everyone seems to have some type of problem when using Acrobat 3D and Win2000.

  • Acrobat 6 and Windows 7

    I would like to install Acrobat 6 onto Windows 7. I think it is first necessary to update Acrobat 6 into Acrobat 10? How do I do this?

    There is no way to install Acro 6 on Win 7 and you are way beyond any upgrade eligibility cycles. Simply buy a new license of Acrobat XI.

  • Acrobat 8 and Windows 7 Don't Work

    I just loaded Windows 7, now my Adobe Acrobat 8 doesn't create or combine pdfs.  Reloaded Acrobat 8 and still doesn't work.  Is there a patch to work with windows 7?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Well I finally got Acrobat 8 to work on my 64 bit windows 7 system. I put in all in a file in case I ever need to reload it. Here is what worked for me.
    To install Acrobat 8 on Windows 7
    1. Find folder data1.cab in installation files and drag AdobePDF.dll_64 onto desktop. Rename file AdobePDF.dll by deleting _64.
    2. Start installation process and when asked for file AdobePDF.dll from Vista disk use browse button and direct installation to file on desktop.
    3. After installation is complete try update (Help/Check for Updates) and after that check the version (Help/about ...). You need to update to at least ver. 8.1. If the Check for updates does not work - go to:
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
    and do AT LEAST the 8.1 update.
    4. Now you may try to print to the Adobe PDF printer but it probably will not work. If not, you will need to go to the Devices and Printers/Adobe PDF/Printer Properties/Advanced and set it to "Print Directly to Printer".
    That process should allow you to create .pdf files from the print menu. But be advised that sometimes it is necessary to click on the flashing icon in the lower tray to bring up the "Save" box after the print is initiated.

  • Acrobat 7 and windows 7

    keep getting a message that says not compatible with this version of windows contact adobe?

    Hi xdfgnxfgh,
    The error message itself is correct as Acrobat 7 was not written for Windows 7.
    You can try installing it on Windows XP and it would work.
    Thanks,

  • Acrobat 8 and Windows 7 64 bit

    Hi,
    I've tried reporting this twice to Adobe's customer support. The first time they told me to upgrade to version 8.1 (I upgraded to 8.15). The second time they said they don't support versions older than the two most recent versions. The one I have is from CS3 so don't understand why they would say this!
    Anyway, I'm hoping someone can help me here!
    After upgrading from Vista to Windows 7 and reinstalling Acrobat I now find that it won't create PDF's and says that the PDFmaker files are missing. I tried reinstalling and upgrading to version 8.15 but still have the same error message although when I choose "Adobe PDF" from the print menu I can get it to make the PDF no problem!
    Anyone else experienced this or know a way around it? Also the links in Office don't work at all now.
    Thanks!
    Steve

    Well after a hunt around the net I found this guys page and it seems to be working fine now!!

  • Acrobat XI and Windows Vista

    Subscription version of Acrobat XI will not download onto my Windows Vista system.  Can I get Acrobat X instead?

    adobe doesn't sell older software versions.  you can download a trial, though.
    did you use compatibility mode (xp sp 3 - for 32 bit, xp sp2 - for 64 bit)  and, if so, what problem are you having with acrobat xi?  (and is that pro or standard?)

  • Acrobat 8 and Windows 8.1 Registration Problems

    I have installed on a Windows 8.1 operating system an Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional Product. The user is not administrator on his computer. Each time the program opens he has the error for Registration Unsuccessful. The product is activated properly.  Does Windows 8.1 has compatibility issues with Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional or i have to do the registration with administrator profile and then the user works properly with his account?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi g.argridiotis,
    Acrobat 8 has never been tested on windows 8.
    I would suggest to upgrade to the latest version of Acrobat, which has lot more features and is fully tested with windows 8.

    I don't know if this is the right section but I experience the following issue with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI installed on Windows 8.1. When I start Acrobat the related window opens normally but, after some scroll up and down along the document, it blocks, Acrobat doesn't respond to any command I can give and, in place of the pointer arrow, a vertical bar, as the one of the text editor appears. The only way I can stop Acrobat is by means of the task manager. I tried to de-install and the re- install Acrobat but the behaviour is always the same. What can I do??

    Have you opened Acrobat and gone to Help>Updates to get an updated install?

  • Acrobat and Windows 8.1

    We are currently running Windows 8.1, IE 11 and Acrobat Professional 11.0.0.9.  Whenever we attempt to view a PDF in the browser we get the "unable to download.  The system cannot find the file specified" error message.  In order to fix this, I need to either reset IE settings or go to Manage add-ons and disable to Adobe PDF Reader add-on and then re-enable the same add-on.  This would be a fine solution, but it has to be done multiple times throughout the day.  We tried rolling Acrobat back and installed Acrobat X, but that will not work as Adobe no longer shows up in the ribbon since that add-on ( PDFMOfficeAddin.dll) version is not compatible with Word 2013.  We need a workable solution and I have yet to find anything helpful online. 
    Please advise.
