How do I retrieve a deleted PDF file from Adobe Reader on iPad?

I inadvertently deleted a very important PDF file from the Adobe Reader on iPad. Does anyone know what I can do to retrieve it? A reply would be highly appreciated!

needhelp74328262,
Unfortunately, once a file is deleted, you won't be able to "undelete" it.
Have you backed up your iPad using iCloud or iTunes recently? If so, you can restore the entire content (not just a single PDF file) on your iPad.

First page only when opening PDF (interactive) in Adobe Reader on iPad.

Hi,
I am having trouble opening a pdf document in Adobe Reader on iPad.
All software is up to date.
I created the interactive document in InDesign CS6.
Due to the fact that InDesign cannot export directly to PDF when you want to keep certain functions such as 'Go to page', I used the workaround of exporting to .swf file, loading this in Adobe Acrobat Pro, and exporting as PDF from there.
The PDF is fully functional and works perfectly on Mac and PC.
I added the Adobe Reader app to iPad.
I opened the iPad in iTunes on the Mac, went to the Adobe Reader app, and added the PDF.
The PDF shows up in Adobe Reader on the iPad.
Upon opening the PDF, only the first page shows, and none of the buttons work. The file size is correct and so the whole file 'should' be showing.
Whats going wrong?
Does Adobe Reader for iOS allow interactive PDFs?
Also, on a side note, I tried first adding the PDF's using Dropbox, but the 'share' icon in the Dropbox App did not update to include 'Adobe Reader' as an option, having installed Adobe Reader App. It should be there, shouldn't it?
Hope you can help!
Thanks,
Zeen

Thanks Steve, but I had tried GoodReader earlier and that made no difference. This led me to think that it was something to do with what functions I was trying to have in my interactive file rather than limitations of a PDF reader App.
It is a bit disappointing, however, that Adobe's own app doesn't support interactive PDFs!
What I have now done is using InDesign CS6 Folio Builder panel and DPS to convert my interactive document into a .folio. I signed up to acrobat.com and then I was able to upload the .folio to my DPS cloud. On the iPad, I downloaded Adobe Content Viewer (care when searching the app store it's actually called Adobe® Content Viewer). Next I opened the App and it did a sync with my DPS cloud and now the PDF works with full interactivity on my iPad.
It was free to publish a personal-use .folio using the DPS Folio Producer. ^_^
I think that I might have been better from the outset creating my document in InDesign, then exporting as high quality print PDF to Acrobat to add buttons and functionality (instead of creating the buttons etc. in InDesign itself), then I have a feeling GoodReader would have been able to read that PDF fine. Regardless, today I created my first working .folio file and have learned a new skill in Adobe =]
The only problem I'm now having is that some of the images in the .folio are poor quality (I think ones that were link files to the original InDesign CS6 document), however this is not for this forum.
I wonder if anyone else has been trying to do the same as me. What was your method, if successful?
Ciao,
ZZ

HTML link to pdf works ok on Mac but not on ipad. Adobe Reader for ipad downloaded. What's wrong?

Hi pwillener,
Thank for reply. The pdf’s are in a subfolder “PDF” of the folder holding the web page. The web page itself uses
. This works in full size computer browsers but not in an iPad.
My excursion through the search engine has produced the idea of adding #page = requesting page to the URL but I have not had time to try it perhaps without the = sign.

Sorry, it can't be done. PDF files don't "populate" other forms.

Am using Adobe acrobat for iPad and pictures are showing JPEG and not PDFs

I Am using Adobe reader for iPad and converted pictures from camera to ipad and pictures are showing JPEG and not pdf

Hi bsmigs23,
I'm not sure that I follow. You have the Adobe Reader app for iOS, and converting photos to PDF? Where are the photos showing up as JPEG? Do you see the converted PDFs when you look at the Recents List?
Best,
Sara

Why does error message occur when "Save as Adobe PDF" is used?

"Save as an Adobe PDF" does not work; it only generates "Error An error occurred while saving the PDF file."
I can create a PDF two ways: (1) distilling a Postscript file and using Acrobat Distiller, and (2) using the MacOS PDF generator (MacOS X 10.10.2 Quartz PDF Context).
Is there a reason "Save as an Adobe PDF" does not work? Is this an issue related to Yosemite or Adobe Acrobat? I am curious to know if other Yosemite and Acrobat XI users have this issue?
Kind regards, –John
Adobe Acrobat XI version 11.0.10 on MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012, 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB DDR3)

Thank you for replying. I appreciate your feedback, Mr. Lloyd. "Save as PDF" does generate a PDF using MacOS X 10.10.2 Quartz PDF Context. However, I am trying to solve an issue with PDF generating with Adobe Distiller since upgrading to Yosemite.
I am curious to know if anyone in the Apple community can verify if "Save as Adobe PDF" works for him or her. If this script specific to Acrobat Distiller XI version 11.0.10 does not function with Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.2, I can disregard this functionality. However, if the functionality does work for others, I shall work to find a solution.
My question was asked in part to help me gain understanding of changes in PDF production that have occurred since I upgraded to Yosemite. The following description is the root of my query which I posted on Acrobat Discussion groups:
Using Adobe Acrobat XI version 11.0.10 on MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012, 2.7 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB DDR3), I have been creating PDF files of music charts optimized for viewing on iPad using Acrobat Distiller XI version 11.0.10. I recently upgraded to Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10.2). Music charts are designed using Pages 5.5.2 using Page Setup for HP LaserJet 1012 and a custom page size (7.75 in. x 10.25) with four 0.06 inch margins. This allows me to replicate exact content of a PDF file optimized for printing [Page Setup for HP LaserJet 1012 with US Letter page size (8.5 in. x 11) having four 0.5 inch margins] on a PDF file optimized for viewing on an iPad. The iPad PDF has reduced white space in margins allowing the music chart to have the largest print viewable when looking at an iPad while performing.
I am creating a PDF by distilling a Postscript file and using Acrobat Distiller [PDF/A-1b:2005 (RGB)]. "Save as an Adobe PDF" does not work; it only generates "Error An error occurred while saving the PDF file." Moreover, "Save as an Adobe PDF" never works for any circumstance.
The issue is iPad PDFs no longer have 0.06 inch margins. A PDF file is created, but there is more white space in margins. I have determined the PDF production is being affected by the HP LaserJet 1012 0.167 inch minimal margins. The outcome does not change if I select Any Printer from Page Setup. However, a PDF with 0.06 inch margins is created if I use the MacOS PDF generator (MacOS X 10.10.2 Quartz PDF Context).
Is there any thing I can do to use Adobe Acrobat XI to make charts optimized iPad like I could before I upgraded to Mac OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)? Just curious…

Acrobat X Pro Drop-down Fields Do Not Appear on Adobe Reader for iPad. Help!

Hello,
I am having a problem getting drop-down fields to appear on Adobe Reader for iPad. Basically, I need to create a form that includes drop-down fields, with the end result being a form that can be viewed and completed on an iPad, using the Adobe Reader app. Above all else, the end result needs to be viewable on an iPad.
I created a form using Acrobat X Pro within which drop-down fields work flawlessly. However, when I try to open this form on an iPad, the drop-down fields do not even appear. I have done some investigating on the Web (including these forums) and come to understand that this has to do with javascript limitations on Apple products, but have yet to discover a solution to my problem.
To summarize: does anyone know how to make drop-down fields appear in Abobe Reader for iPad app? Or, does anyone know a workaround in which I could have a drop-down menu (or something similar) in my form and have it work on Adobe Reader for iPad?
Thanks in advance for the help. I took on this project from my boss' boss, so I'd really like to get this done for him.

Hello GKaiseril,
Thanks for the reply. I experienced the issue running the most recent version of the Adobe Mobile Reader app. I'm not sure I can convince the client to use anything else, but its worth a shot.
All I need is a simple drop-down list (multiple fields in the document) with 4 options that the user can select and submit as a form. Is this something EZ Pdf reader can do? Also, is EZ Pdf Reader free? (the reason I ask is I am an Android user and do not readily have access to a iPad).
Thanks again.

Adobe Reader in iPad

I have a pdf form that I am able to fill the data using the Adobe Reader in iPad. I can fill the form and see the data. When I email the form using the
email document option from the iPad I receive an email with the form attached but the data is lost. I get a blank form.
Am I doing something wrong? How can I fix this issue?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks.

Thank you for all your help!
You were right. The issue was caused because the pdf form was in LifeCycle Designer. I did the following steps in Acrobat to convert to Acrobat forms.
Launch Adobe Professional 7
Selected Create PDF from webpage
Chose the form and clicked on create button
The form seemed to work fine in the iPad. I am able to email the form and save the data.
Thanks again for all your help!

How to put text in pdf on ipad

How to put text in pdf on ipad?

The only text you can attach to a PDF in the current Adobe Reader is a "note" comment. If you tap the comments button (the cartoon cloud with pencil) and choose the "note" comment (the cartoon cloud) you can add a note.

Saving text in PDF on iPad

Hi, I am opening a PDF document on my iPad using the Adobe Reader app which is allowing me to fill in text, add notes, draw signatures etc, however when I email the document to myself (so I can save on my pc) it does not transfer across the text however it DOES transfer signatures, notes, underlining, highlighting etc. How can I get the text I type to save in the PDF when emailing? I have tried opening in Adobe Reader on the other end however text is still not appearing. Can someone please give me instructions on how to get this form to work - it is useless for me unless I can email and save to pc with text filled in. Regards, Amanda

I'm having a similar problem. I created a form from a PDF that we wanted our clients to fill out, sign, and then send back to us. We are able to open the PDF in Adobe Reader on iPad, fill out the information, and save it. When we choose to email the file, all of the information disappears and we are left with the original document. Strangely enough, I can still go back to the Adobe Reader for iPad and see the information there.
I have saved the file from Acrobat XI in the following manner:
>File >Save As Other... >Reader Extended PDF >Enable More Tools.
None of my form fields are locked, the security settings all allow for form field editing...not sure what else to do.
I just spent time on Adobe chat, and they were quick to end the conversation as soon as I told them I was asking about Adobe Reader app for iOS and had followed all of their instructions on setting up the PDF correctly (which I had been doing all along). I was told that not all the features work on Adobe Reader for iPad. Then why are the features available in the app?!? I'm hoping the forums are more helpful...

Drop down fields on Adobe reader for iPad

Hello,
Regarding using an order form in adobe reader for iPad, I am able to check boxes, free form text, etc. but drop down fields are not retaining selection. I will click drop down, make selection, and field is still blank. If I select the same drop down my choice is checked. When I email form the field remains blank.
Any help would be appreciated!!

Hello,
Thank you for the response. I am currently using Adobe 11.01. I believe I have found the problem. Our company utilizes an app names "Showpad" for our sales teams. Within Showpad you can open PDF's, however any interactive functionality is not available. To solve for this, you can open a PDF within Showpad and then "open with" a different app. In this case, I opened with Adobe Reader. It looks like all the functionality returns to the document minus that drop down issue I am experiencing.
I tried to open the same order form from my email using Adobe Reader and all functionality is available (including drop down).
It looks as though something is getting lost between the Showpad app and Adobe Reader app.
