Adobe Acrobat 9 redaction trouble

Hello,
When redacting documents in Acrobat 9 Professional, it will sometimes alter text further in the document.
For example if I redact some text on page 3 of the document, it alters the word "Washington" to "ashington W" on page 11. this is not document specific, as I've seen it occur on several documents now.
The change to the text seems to occur when saving the document.
thanks,
-Nick

I am having the same problem, and it just appeared randomly last week after using Acrobat 9 Professional since the week it was released. It has nothing to with the amount of text being redacted - redacting a single character on a document with embedded text will trigger the issue, which was affecting over a dozen lines of text. I have also determined that the problem is not document specific. Has anyone experienced this or come up with a solution? Thanks!
Jason

  • Adobe Acrobat 8 - trouble converting Word Doc to PDF

    I currently have Adobe Acrobat 8 and Microsoft Office 2007. Everytime I try to convert a word document or powerpoint to Adobe PDF, the application freezes or says not responding. How can I fix this?

    At this point my best recommendation is to go to the help menu in Acrobat and do a repair (you can also do that from the add/remove programs menu in the control panel). After that, you may want to do updates to AA8, though I already mentioned the updates. I am assuming your XP is a 32-bit system.
    You should be able to test Distiller by applying it to any PS file. Normally I suggest creating the PS file by simply printing to the Adobe PDF printer with "print-to-file" selected. The printer creates a PS file this way. However, you are indicating this step does not work as I understand it and that would suggest that Distiller is not the problem. If you were successful with the print to file and the problem was at the Distiller step, then that really suggests the need for a repair and possibly and update to fix the Distiller problem.

  • I need to configure Acrobat to display PDF files in Safari, but I have a lot of troubles to do it.I have OX S yosemite, I unistalled adobe acrobat, I closed safary and I installed the new version of adobe acrobat.

    Dear everyone
    I need to configure Acrobat to display PDF files in Safari, but I have a lot of troubles to do it.
    I read a european commission document explaining that
    http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/data/support/sep_usermanual.pdf
    If Safari does not display pdf forms in the browser window, uninstall all older versions of Adobe Reader and download the most recent one. First close Safari and then install Reader. Launch Safari and you ought to be able to open the pdf files inside the Safari window. If you install Adobe Reader 10.1.x without first closing Safari, Safari will not display the pdf file inside its browser window until it is re-launched. For further help, please see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/troubleshoot-safari-plug-acrobat-x.html
    I have OX S yosemite, I unistalled adobe acrobat, I closed safary and I installed the new version of adobe acrobat
    but when I open a web page that I need to allow me to display and modify PDF files it is not working.
    I checked the following web page
    Troubleshoot Safari plug-in | Acrobat X, Reader X
    that is recommending the following:
    The AdobePDFViewer plug-in is used to display PDF files in Safari using Acrobat and Reader.
    This plug-in is installed as part of the Acrobat X or Reader X installation. The location of this plug-in is:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
    but after the new installation with this folder is completely empty and I am still
    unable to open these pdf.
    Does anybody knows anything else I can do?
    Best regards

  • I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9

    I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9.  When I attempt to save I get message saying,"Bad File Handle".  There are several pictures on this file I'm trying to save...dont know if that has anything to do with the problem, just thought it would be helpful information.  Would really appreciate any insight anyone has to offer.
    Thanks in advance

    I am having a similar problem with a simple pdf form.  I have made several changes to the pdf and when I go to save, I get the message that I can't save the file due to a "bad file handle."  I have opened, altered, saved, and closed the form several times before, just not now.  No one else was working on the form.  The file format is still a pdf and nothing has changed.

  • How to redact information in adobe acrobat XI standard

    How do you redact information in adobe acrobat XI standard

    That's true. However, it is technically possible to redact documents in Acrobat Standard, just like in Acrobat Pro, but it requires using a script. You can't do it with the commands that are available in the application itself.

  • Redaction with 30-day free trial of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro??

    I installed the 30 day free trial of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. I am trying to redact and bates stamp documents. I don't see the Tools pane, as described in the instructions for redaction. Does the 30 day free trial version have redaction and bates stamping functionality??

    Yes it does. Open the tools panel and take a look at the main headings there. What do you see?

  • Troubles installing the Adobe Acrobat XI trial version.

    I'm trying to install the Adobe Acrobat XI trial version, but it won't work. A window pops up, saying "The application could not be installed because the installer file is damaged. Try obtaining a new installer file from the application author."

    Hi LiesDeGroef,
    Please download Acrobat directly from the links on this page: Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X.
    Then, make sure you're logged in as an administrator and disable any anti-virus software before you install.
    If you're still having trouble, let us know. And, please tell us what operating system you're using (name and version).
    Please let us know how it goes!

  • Trouble using Adobe Acrobat to view email sends.

    I had Adobe Acrobat and up to  today had no trouble opening images sent by my publisher.  Today it said 'expired' , and that I must buy Adobe XI.! The price is way to high for this teacher - 29.00 U.S. per month!      All I want to do is see images people send me.  I downloaded Adobe Reader  'successfully' but still can not open images sent by publisher.  How can I view the items in my emails in Adobe?Please advise, Sandy.

    Once you have downloaded Acrobat, you have to install it and part of the process should be to accept the license. You should end up with an icon for Acrobat on your desktop or in the programs list. If this was a trial, you should be able to use it for 90 days and no longer. To continue the use you will have to complete the purchase and then provide the software key to Acrobat when you open it.

  • Trouble with Adobe Acrobat Pro installation from Creative Cloud

    When I attempt to install Adobe Acrobat Pro from Creative Cloud, it will always fail on the first attemp. If I retry, it installs it. Then, when I open a pdf document, the application quits in seconds. I get a modal window with the license agreement. However, it is blank and the pull downs are empty. I hit a dead end.
    This is so aggravating; especially when Adobe is charging me for my membership every month.
    What gives? Can someone help with this?
    Brian

    Brian which operating system are you using?  Do you receive any specific errors during the installation process?  If you are using a Windows operating system then please uninstall Acrobat using the Programs and Features control panel.  Once done then please try using the Acrobat Cleaner Tool available at http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html.
    Also you mentioned that the EULA window is blank you may also want to see Blank EULA screen appears on Acrobat XI launch - http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/blank-eula-screen-appears-acrobat.html.  Solution 2 is not likely to be relevant unless you are using an operating system not currently supported by the Creative Cloud Desktop application.

    Hi garryw,
    What version of Reader are you using, and are you on Mac OS or Windows? Do you get the same error when you try to print other PDF files, or is the problem specific to one PDF?
    For starters, please try the solutions listed in this thread: Re: There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat /Reader. If it is running ,please exit and try again.(0:104)

  • Having trouble deactivating adobe acrobat 9 pro

    Hello,
    Im moving over to a new computer (windows 7) I have a student version of CS5 and it includes a seperate disc for Adobe acrobat 9 pro. I already deactivated the other programs in the suite and uninstalled them from my old computer to the new one and they are working fine.
    I tried to install  Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro using the cd to my new computer but it says that the serial # is invalid. I check my old computer and it still has Adobe acrobat 9 installed ( adobe reader) but under the help menu of the application there is no deactivation option. Im not sure how to deactivate it or what I should do
    Any and all help is great appreciated.

    Which one is actually installed. Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader are diffrent applications and Reader doesn't require activation.

  • Trouble opening LiveCycle DRM-encrypted PDFs in Adobe Acrobat v.10.0.2

    LiveCycle DRM-encrypted PDFs open fine in Adobe Acrobat v. 9, v. 10.1.7, and v. 11. Why don't they open in v. 10.0.2? Is this a known problem? My company is UNABLE to upgrade or downgrade to another version of Adobe at this time, but we need to be able to open these PDFs with version 10.0.2. What is the solution? I get the following message when attempting to open these PDFs:

    Usually bugs are fixed in updated software versions; what kind of other solution do you expect?
    Actually, looking at ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/ I see that 10.0.2 has been removed completely, so this appears to have been an especially buggy version.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro extended batch watermarks trouble on 3d PDFS

    Hello there
    we are very interested in buying a license of your software but we have a few reservations
    I cannot get the batch watermark facility to work on a batch of 3d PDF encoded from pro engineer wildfire 2. When i apply the watermark the watermark does not appear at all or behind the object. Attached are screen dumps of the setups from pro extended and the file used maybe you can shed some light on this. This is a essential part of the use of the software and we need to protect our copyright over 1500 pdfs. we are trailing the software at this present moment and looking at buying.
    Attached are the following
    3d pdf examples from the batch list
    CI6019T
    AU8001T
    AU8005T
    BM6017
    The watermark
    Eecfill7
    Screen dumps of the setups (JPG)

    The watermark is supposed to be displayed above the 3D PDF, the problem is that it either does not water at all or the watermark is below, any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
    Kind regards

    You can not do that using Adobe Acrobat 9. Adobe never made a create PDF add-on for Firefox for use with Adobe Acrobat 9. They created a Firefox add-on for use with Acrobat X, but currently that one does not work with Firefox 4 though Adobe are working on an update.
