Adobe Acrobat 9 supposedly allows you to convert selected areas of a web page to PDF from within Int

Software: Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard
Issue: Using the ‘Adobe PDF toolbar’ from within Internet Explorer
Problem #1:
Can’t convert selected areas of a web page to PDF
When you click ‘select’ on the adobe pdf toolbar, a red dotted line is supposed to appear around parts of the web page as you move the cursor
In my case, that’s not happening
Similarly, when you click on a part of the page, the part is supposed to be highlighted in blue
In my case, that’s not happening
Problem #2:
Can’t convert part of a web page to PDF
You’re supposed to use the cursor to select text and images on a page, then right-click and convert them to a PDF
In my case, nothing happens when I right-click
Any advice??

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.

  • Convert Web Page to PDF

    We have an internal web based system in which we would like to 'print' one of the screens as a report.  However, when we use the Convert Web Page to PDF option, the resulting PDF doesn't look anything close to the web page.  We are wanting to use the Convert Web Page option so the links to the images remain and can be clicked on and viewed from our internal servers.
    Resulting PDF
    Original Web Page we are attempting to convert:
    As you can see, the two do not resemble each other very much.  The image thumbnails on the PDF screen are located at the bottom of the web page we are converting.
    We are receiving the same results on two different computers running two different OS (Windows XP and Windows 7) with two different versions of Acrobat (Acrobat 6 Professional and Acrobat 8 Professional).
    Does anyone have any suggestions?  The Convert Web Page option also doesn't work well on eBay Order screen either.  I stopped using it years ago but a coworker would really like to be able to share our QC Inspection Reports with other people in the company easily.
    Any help and suggestions would be apprecitated.

    Bill,
    Thanks again for the reply.  I am using the Convert Web Page to PDF selection on the Adobe toolbar which is available in IE.  I printed the page from File >> Print and it looks good except no links.  It is also printed in a Portrait style page layout.
    Sample:
    When I used the Convert Web Page to PDF from the Adobe toolbar, it looks like it is attempting to 'print' it in a landscape mode and that may be where the problem is.
    Sample:
    These are the same report.  However, I can't find a preference to tell it to convert in a Portrait mode instead of landscape.  Any clues on how to force it to always convert Portrait?
    Thanks again,

    I wanted the programme which converts pdf documents to word and I received something which allows you to convert it manually. How do I fix this.

    Hi,
    In Adobe Export PDF you can do it manually.
    But in Acrobat you can do it automatically by using 'Action Wizard' option.
    Please let us know if you require further assistance.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.1.3 will not convert web page to Pdf

    While using Acrobat 9.1.3 Pro, I cannot convert web pages to PDF format.
    the output is garbled and text is cyrillic or backwards.
    Using Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.13

    You do not have all the fonts embedded, but the basic document looks fine. There is an issue withe the printer setup in your browser that is leading to part of the page running off the paper - but that is a browser issue and not Acrobat. In some cases, a simple fix is to print as landscape.

  • Firefox 13, and Acrobat X pro; I want the "convert web page to pdf" buttons I use in IE.

    I'm running Firefox 13.0, and I have Acrobat X pro, all running in Win 7 64 bit. 
    How can I add to Firefox (AND to Chrome), the buttons I use in Internet Explorer that enable me to "convert web page to pdf", etc.?
    Do I need to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat X pro? 
    I tried that once, and it did not add the Acrobat toolbar to this (latest) version of Firefox.
    Is it possible to add the Acrobat toolbar buttons "convert web page to pdf", etc. to Chrome?  If so, how can I do it?
    Thanks,
                            Marc

    The supported browsers are found at http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/compatible-web-browsers-pdfmaker-applications.html. So, have you updated Acrobat or are you still sitting with AA10.0? Generally you do not need to reinstall Acrobat in such cases, but the updates and possibly repairs may be needed (not a reinstall).

  • Error converting web page to PDF using Acrobat 8 IE 9 on Vista

  • We use a plugin Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in Version 10.1.2 on a Mac to get the pdf to open in a browser window. Is there a later version or other method ?

    We use a plugin Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in Version 10.1.2 on a Mac to get the pdf to open in Acrobat and the pdf display within the browser window, as within our Online artwork Approval system we use the Acrobat Annotations server to annotate pdfs and publish to the server
    But we can no longer get this plugin to work! Is there a later version ? or is there another way of forcing the pdf to open in a Acrobat Reader application (not the Mac viewer) within the browser and not open another window to display the pdf in Acrobat?

    The latest version is 11.0.6. Whether that's available to you depends on the version of Mac OS you're running.

    I have been an Adobe customer since 1991 on an old IICi.  A while ago I purchased Creative suite 4.  I have Adobe Acrobat 4, ver. 9.5.5.  Are there any updates I can apply?  What is involved in updating if I want to avoid the cloud?  I have a satellite connection that charges for bandwidth usage.  I have a 27" iMac, using 10.10.3.

    Hi Kenneth ,
    We are sorry but you would not be able to update from Creative Suite 4 .The reason being there are no updates available for Acrobat version 9 .It is quite an older version so you are unfortunately not eligible for any updates or upgrade .
    The best option for you would be to opt for Acrobat DC .
    You could either for Acrobat DC subscription or perpetual version .Here is the link to download the same .

    You could also opt for Acrobat DC Creative Cloud subscription

    Dear ladies and gentlemen!
    I recently received on my notebook, operating system 8.1, the message "Adobe Acrobat is no longer working properly". I also found myself that I can copy from einerPDF file excerpts not without problems in another document. My Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro has released version 9.0.0. Two updates this version is not listed. Please inform me how I can fix this problem.
    Sincerely, Walter Hacksteiner
    mailto: [email protected]

    The first thing I would try is to update Acrobat 9 to the latest version 9.5.5
    The next thing would be to run Acrobat 9 in Windows 7 or Vista or XP Compatibility Mode.

  • Adobe Acrobat NI Pro doesn't recognize my wireless scanner, a Canon MG5520, but it prints from the same MG5520. This is ridiculous!

    Adobe Acrobat NI Pro doesn't recognize my wireless scanner, a Canon MG5520, but it prints from the same MG5520. This is ridiculous!

    I just used the "Quick Menu" in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro after wasting hours several days when the SSID and Network key/password were already activated and the Adobe software claimed no scanner was available. . These Adobe user manuals are next to useless. Now I'm still dealing with this problem: "Save As was unable to find tables in the document No file was created." (i.e., from the pdf file I created using NI). Well it's obvious there are tables in the pdf, but so far I haven't been able to get a result to determine the intrinsic accuracy of Adobe's pdf to Excel capability.
