Adobe Acrobat showing wrong strange signs

Hi all.
Using Adobe Acrobat Pro ver. 9.4.0 on Windows XP.
It happens that opening a pdf file (but not all files) it shows some strange signs in spite of stress marked letters or apostrophe all along the text.
Any equal experience and solution?
Thanks in advance.

Hi thanks.
It seems it's so, because pressing Ctrl+D it shows I have some recognised fonts (it says me the exact name) and others with the indication subsystem embedded with a number (eg TTE1768338t00) , saying that Type: TrueType and Codification: personalized; which way to solve?

Under the download or application file I only have the Assistant program

Isabellasf have you ran the installation files which were downloaded? By default they are downloaded to the download folder within your User folder.

Adobe acrobat shows a black screen

When I try to open a pdf with Adobe Acrobat Reader 11.0.02 from Safari 6.0.3 I just get a solid black area and an error telling me to shut down Acrobat with error number 1.9
I have all the latest versions and I have tried running Safari and Acrobat Reader in 32 bit mode but it does not help......

Yes I agree it is something wrong with Safari, but WHAT?
I have two macs sitting beside each other, both running Safari pointed at a .pdf file; one runs adobe just fine, the other shows black.
No amount of pawing through the Preferences tree shows me anything remotely relevant.

Adobe Acrobat XI Pro - cannot sign-in

I've downloaded Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and cannot sign in. Get an error message that cannot access Internet. Not the case, I'm connected. Checked FAQ, all certificates are there, enabled, not problem with firewall. What next?

On the command prompt type : ping activate.adobe.com
and check the ping results.
If the test fails, configure proxy settings for Internet access in Network System Preferences. Or, try activating without the proxy. (An authenticating proxy can also prevent the activation process.) If you need assistance, contact your Internet Service Provider or IT Administrator.

Acrobat showing wrong file

I'm using OSX Mountain Lion with Acrobat Pro X (10.1.3) and when I double click on a PDF attachment in mail, Acrobat shows me the wrong file. If I let PREVIEW open the attachment it is correct, or if I download the attachment and have Acrobat open it is correct.
Its almost like Acrobat has cached the attachment by name and as this matches a previous file name that is the version that is always shown. Is there a "clear cache" setting or something to resolve this?

I agree. It would appear that you may be depending on the Acrobat URL recognition, rather than having entered the URL in the link tool.

Why does my exported mp4 file look so bad when it is viewed in adobe acrobat pdf file?

I have embedded an mp4 (exported from premier pro cs6) video file into adobe acrobat and its not sharp viewing of my video anymore. It was a sharp video when viewed in both premier and the exported mp4 files, but once embedded in acrobat it looses sharpness, anyone know what the problem might be? Could my settings in adobe acrobat be wrong? I would think the problem is in adobe acrobat since the exported mp4 video views crisp and clear before its embedded, any ideas to assure sharpness with my video after its embedded into the adobe acrobat pdf?
Hoping someone has an answer to this, I think my problem might lie within the adobe acrobat settings????
or maybe there is no way around and I need to expect this video not to look as crisp and clear after I embed it into acrobat.... as it is when viewing in premier pro, mp4, etc.????
Any helpful information would be greatly appreciated.
Someone Im sure is taking theri exported premier files and embedding them to create pdf files? Would love to hear if anyone has encountered this issue.
Thanks so much in advance for any help offered.

Hi Dave,
I just completed a test and comparison between the two PDF's,
compared the file as you suggested with the floating option and changing setting to actual size of the original premier pro / mp4 file size and
the old pdf that did not utilize the floating and file size option.
I do notice a slight difference. The PDF with the floating window with the match of the media clips original dimensions appears to be crisper.
I will be having the final pdf document set utilizing this method for the embeded mp4 movie and hope that the department doing this (next stage of this job) will agree that this is better to use your steps to embed all the video files into a pdf.
Thanks so much for your time.
Hope you had a happy holiday, and hope you have a very happy and healthy new year.
Thanks, Amy

Saving Location @ Adobe Acrobat XI Pro

If you open a document with Adobe Acrobat X Pro and sign it, than the Software wants to save the document on the same place, like you opened it. In Adobe Acrobat XI Pro the software wants to save it on an other place.
Do anybody know this issue and is it possible to solve it?

I followed up on this with some people who know more about saving in Acrobat and here's what I learned. When Acrobat saves a PDF it generally populates the 'Save as' dialog with the location for the saved file the same as the original file. But before it does that it checks that it can write to that location. If it cannot write to the location from where the original PDF came from, then it populates the 'Save as' dialog with the Acrobat's default location (it may be different in Acrobat and Reader and whether Reader is in Protected Mode or not). The most likely reason for your problem is that PDFs that you want to sign come from a location (like a network drive or cloud) to which Acrobat does not have full permissions.
To check that open one of your PDFs and try to "Save as" it. See if you get the same location as when you try to sign. Also, you can create a small text document in a Notepad and try to save it to the location from which your PDF came from. Se if Notepad allows you to do that.

Trying to download trial of Adobe acrobat.

Trying to download trial of Adobe acrobat. After I sign in, the Adobe download assistant says: "Error 100. Error communicating with Adobe.com. Check your network connection and restart Adobe download assistant. Did that several times with the same result.

Not sure, but sometimes you just have to wait a while (maybe even a day) and try again. The server may be down.

Strange problem with Adobe Acrobat X (crash without a trace)

Hi,
I have a strange problem with Adobe Acrobat. It happens totally randomly, it leaves no signs in system logs.
What is happening: during my work Adobe Acrobat sudennly crashes. After a crash I cannot run it again - system seems to do something for a second, but then nothing happends. When i look into taks manager - there are no processes of Acrobat.exe. It just doesn't want to run. What I need to do is to reinstall whole Adobe Acrobat - which requires restart.
I've already tried to restart system after crash, it doesn't help - reinstall is required.
Sometimes everyting is fine for a 3 months, sometimes crash happens a week after the previous one. It also happens in very different situations (somtimes while opening a file, sometimes when doing something simple, sometimes in more complex tasks).
Has anyone encountered a similar problem?

I have a valid Serial # for Adobe Acrobat XI, and it shows on my account, but when I try to install it seem to automatically go to "Pro" and says that my Serial # is invalid. I need this right away!!!! How can I fix this???

I really need help with this! I have a valid Serial # for Adobe Acrobat XI and it shows on my account with Adobe. When I try to install on my new hard drive it says that the serial # is invalid.. I tried to install the free version to get me out of a jam and it keeps saying that it failed!!!! What can I do?

I am on Windows 7, and I was on Adobe.com. I went to downloads and clicked on Acrobat XI standard. It downloaded. But when I went to run it said Acrobat XI Pro and would not accept my serial number. I have done this now 4 times. I think that the system is downloading the wrong version. I am getting very frustrated and unhappy with Adobe!!!!

Unable to save a document after signing it in Adobe Acrobat Standard XI.

I have a user who is unable to save .PDF files that he is opening in Outlook via an embedded link in the email.
When he clicks on the link, Acrobat opens the document without issue. However, when he applies his signature and goes to save it over the existing document on our internal network file server, he gets the following message: "The document could be saved. The disk you were saving to or the disk used for temporary files is full. Free some space on this disk and try again, or save to a different disk."
The network drive has a significant amount of space available, at least 500 gigs.
This was not an issue up until Friday of last week. Prior to Friday, he had no issue signing documents emailed to him that contained a embedded link pointing back to the file on our internal network file server. If I have him browse directly to the file in Windows Explorer however, he can open sign the document and overwrite the existing copy. While that works, I would like him to regain the ability to save his file after opening it from his email; as unless I show him how to get to the file directly via Explorer, he is unable to do so. (And he has to sign many documents a day as well)
Other users on my network are not encountering this issue, however some are running a different mix of Office and Acrobat. (Such as Office 2010 and Acrobat X, etc)
I've researched this issue for prior versions of Acrobat and tried to applied the same resolutions for this issue without a positive result. So far I have been unable to find any solutions for this issue dealing with XI.
Has anyone else run ino this issue with Acrobat Standard XI? If so what did you do to resolve the issue? Thank you for any help that you can give me.
Here is the basic setup that his computer is running:
Windows 7 Profesional 64 bit
Microsoft Office 2013 Professional
Adobe Acrobat Standard XI
Internet Explorer 9
Also my user is has full Admin rights to his workstation and has the appropriate security rights to the folders he is trying to save the signed document to.

I would like to confirm the exact same message is happening with us.
Several users have been receiving the error message shown below when trying to save PDF’s to their desktop or other server.
We are experiencing the issue with earlier versions of Acrobat (8 & 9) as well.
This is only started happening this week?

Establishment of a secure "sign" ID in Adobe Acrobat 9.5.3 prevents reading PDFs in Firefox 18.0.2 under windows XP, sp3.

I think, but I'm not sure because the forum database is a bit glitchy today, that your question was answered in this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/950806 error message: this adobe acrobat/reader canot be used to view PDF files in a browser].

Adobe Acrobate XI and SecCommerce SecSigner have a problem during signing of a document, creating/verification of the signature is not possible - solutions?

Adobe Acrobate XI and SecCommerce SecSigner have a problem during signing of a document, creating/verification of the signature is not possible - solutions? SecSigner is not responding.

Well, I contacted SecCommerce about the issue, the response was, that I should sign the file later (afterwards). This is a solution, but not the best in my opinion.
When I sign the document the SecSigner window/Java window appears and freezes. Adobe is not responding. I have to terminate Adobe because the program is not responding.
I only found this support website, so I have realized that this is a User 2 User site, but it was a try to get some help.

Adobe PDF 9.0 shows up under Printers and Scanners (Mac OS) after re-installing Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0

- recently re-installed Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0 on my new Mac (OSX version 10.9.3)
- after re-installing Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0 an icon called Adobe PDF 9.0 shows up under Printers and Scanners
- every single time I want to scan, my printer/scanner Brother automatically chooses Adobe PDF 9.0 as printer/scanner, although my printer/scanner Brother is set as standard printer/scanner
- did bring the issue under attention of Customer Service who directed me to this website

Hi Pieter,
Acrobat 9 has not been tested and is unsupported Mac Mavericks.
You might face compatibility issues with it.
