Adobe PDF comes up and says "file is damaged and cannot be repaired" works fine in IE9.

Open a Adobe PDF on this site: http://www.safehaven.com/ and this specific PDF comes up with the "file is damaged and cannot be repaired: JAN30 EUR/USD Triggers Bearish Reversal Pattern into... - MIG Bank

there is something with the pdf itself that is stopping FF from opening it, as when i try opening the same in Crome ... there also i encounter the same problem (the file opens partially and then stops opening). But if i download the same then i can view the same in Acrobat reader properly.
May be the way the pdf was created used something which FF s not able to render (the graphics used in charts etc)
The work around that is available is that you download the file and save it somwhere, then open the same in Acrobat reader separately

  • File is damaged or cannot be repaired

    I have Adobe Reader on my Vista OS. When I try to open a PDF file, I get error msg:
    "file is damaged or cannot be repaired." 
    Has anyone experienced a similar problem?

    If you use a PC, you can use software you already have on your computer to retrieve some of the content. Right-click on the corrupt file and choose ‘Open
    With’ and select the Notepad program that comes bundled with every copy of Windows. The resulting file will contain a lot of coding but within that
    coding you will see the content. This is perhaps a only really viable with text-only PDFs as when you are dealing with images and forms, Notepad will be swamped with coding and finding the text can be the proverbial needle in the haystack.
    Some links might be helpful to you:
    I found an article, it may help you to solve the problem:

  • Where do I find the Adobe pdf 9.0 printer description file and how do I install it?

    Where do I find the Adobe pdf 9.0 printer description file and how do I install it? Operating system is Windows 7 and I have Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 installed. Adobe Acrobat X Pro just updated to version 10.1.8

    Hi. Thanks for the replyl
    I'm in prepress, working mainly with Quark XPress for advertising files and with Word, Photoshop, everything, for many years. My older computer is the workhorse with Quark 6.5 and CS4 and OSX 10.4.11. Everything is set up for me to produce PDF x1a files by printing .ps files from Quark and Word, and InDesign.
       My newer computer, OSX 10.9.4, must now be used to a greater extent. So I have Quark 9 and 10 and now Creative Suite for the Cloud. But I don't have any Adobe PDF printer which I select when I print .ps files and place into my Distiller Watched Folder. I by pass selecting the Adobe PDF printer in Word and just print straight to .ps. The .ps file just sits in the Watched Folder and no longer flows into Distiller, processed and out. Is this the way of the future? I just want a smooth, fast flow for PDF's. I want them to be PDF x1a compliant for hi-quality printing.
    Thought you might help to give me info as to how one uses Distiller (or not) with the new operating system and latest programs. Can't seem to find any info as of yet by searching the Adobe FAQ's and the Internet in general.
    Thanks alot.

  • PDF error message "The file is damaged and cannot be repaired"

    Across several versions (upgrades) of Mozilla and from
    several sites I have a problem when viewing pages (ie.
    from MoinMoin wikis but also other CMS systems) with
    embedded PDF documents.
    I get an error dialog saying "The file is damaged and cannot be repaired" and a reference to a local cached copy of a
    ".tmp" file. If I right click on the link and "Save Link"
    as a local file then the PDF views correctly (and it renders
    correctly within the HTML page with other browsers such
    as IE).
    The page below (bizarrely) works for me, but similar
    documents fail on password protected sites.
    Any comments much appreciated. Thanks!

  • I have an editable pdf made in Acrobat. Viewing it Adobe Reader Mobile (Android) and I can fill it fine. I want to be able to fill the form but it keeps autosaving. I just want to email the form and then it goes back to an unfilled form. How do i do that?

    I have an editable pdf made in Acrobat. Viewing it Adobe Reader Mobile (Android) and I can fill it fine. I want to be able to fill the form but it keeps autosaving. I just want to email the form and then it goes back to an unfilled form. How do i do that?

    Currently, Adobe Reader for Android does not provide an option to disable auto-save.
    In the Reader home screen (where your files are displayed), you can make a copy of the original PDF document, open the copy (instead of opening the original document), make changes to the copy.  Once you email the copy, you can delete it.
    For more information, please see Help > How To... > Copy, edit, delete, manage.
    Although it is not the most convenient way to accomplish the task, that's the only feasible workaround that is available in Adobe Reader for Android right now.

  • PDF "FILE DAMAGED AND CANNOT BE REPAIRED".

    I work at a software firm. We have a web app. Users are complaining that when they download a document in the Web app, they can't use that PDF, as the ERROR Message is "FILE DAMAGED AND CANNOT BE REPAIRED." Known issue. But, how do I fix it. It has to do with encoding and my suggestion is to call the ISP, but is that all that I can do? Is there anything in this forum I can point to?

  • HELP! "This file is damaged and cannot be repaired."

    I have been editing a large (25+ MB) PDF in Adobe Acrobat X Pro on a Macbook.
    I just tried to open it to continue editing and got an error message:
    "This file is damaged and cannot be repaired."
    What on earth happened?!?!
    A few days ago I saved a compressed version that is 1/10th the size. I can use that if I absolutely have to (it means losing part of my work and not all of my work) but I'm nervous -- what is the difference between a compressed file and a standard file that would make the compressed file 10% of the size? Is it fully functional with edits?
    Ideally, if someone could help me remedy my error problem on the main file, that would be preferable -- but I'll also take info on compressed files (I didn't zip it, I just saved it in "Finder" as a compressed file.)

    Lara,
    yes it said something like "some fonts are not supported..etc...would you like to open the file anyway." (sry cant remember verbatim...I had a friend of mine try to open it on her comp which has cs3).
    I believe CS3 should substitute the fonts in question, or at least give you the option to substitute them. Did you try saving it from CS3 (with or without font substitution) and then opening in CS4 as I suggested?
    CS4 may be more particular than CS3 when it comes to fonts. Illy is more particular than most applications (some applications open files with corrupt fonts that she flatly refuses), and she may have become more particular over the years.

  • I purchased adobe photoshop elements 12 and cannot open organizer on my macbook pro 7.1  Any suggest

    i purchased adobe photoshop elements 12 and cannot open organizer on my macbook pro 7.1  Any suggestions?

    After I successfully install the adobe photoshop elements 12 for mac, I try to open organizer and a window pops up that says
    "Adobe Elements 12 Organizer cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Elements 12 Organizer works with this version of Mac OSX. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and Mac OSX. Click report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple."
    I have checked for any updates on my Mac and it is up to date.
    I have tried reloading and am still getting the same result.
    I can open Editor, but not Organizer.
    I am running Mac OSX version 10.6.2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor with 4 GB  memory, all standard stuff that came in the computer and I have no security software running when I do this.
    Any idea why it is not working?

    If you've already installed the latest version then the message may be a sign of a corrupt library. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash.

    Reboot your router. You by chance dont have a netgear N300 WNR2000 router do you? I had one of those and would lose wifi on it constantly, Switched to a Cisco wifi router and it works much better.

  • I have an open case. I can't get a response from Adobe. My computer was hit by lightening and cannot be repaired. It had Photoshop on it. I want to get a copy of Photoshop for my new computer using the serial

    My computer that had Adobe Photoshop CS6 on it was hit by lightening and cannot be repaired. I want to get a copy of Photoshop for my new computer. I have an open case, but I cannot get Adobe to respond to it. I have sent the serial# and a copy of the license. Every time I try the chat function to get help, I get dropped with the message "chat is no longer available." I WANT MY PHOTOSHOP!

    This is a user forum, not a channel to address Adobe. As your fellow users and volunteers, we'll be happy to help you if we can.
    You can download the CS6 trial version just like anybody else.
    Once you download it, you can install it, input your serial number, register it and apply all necessary updates.
    An alternative, if you know how to access your Adobe account, under My Products you'll find your Photoshop CS6 registration, next to which you should find a link to download CS6 if you originally bought it as a download
