Adobe pdf problem

  I continue to get emails for a online survey that i should be able to print out and was able to always view and printout on my previous pc but now i have a Imac and I am not able to open up the pdf . It continues to say i need to download a pdf viewer . Ihave done that and ran the Adobe reader 10.1.1 .  My computer in applications shows I have done that. But the email is still not recognizing it and is still asking me to download it. I have never had this problem before on my pc and don't know what to do,   I have already talked to Apple and they tried to help but to no avail and said I need to contact you.   HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!     I can forward the email to you if you give me a email address.   mine is [removed]
             thanks

Looks like a file association problem to me. Right click on the icon of a PDF in your HD, click on Get Info, and see what it says under Open With. It should be either Adobe Reader, or Mac OS's own viewin program (called Vista Previa in Spanish, could be something like Preview in English). If it isn't, change to the one you want, clicking on the Change All button.
If I am right, this should solve your problem.

  • N93 Adobe PDF Problem! Please Help!

    Hello all,i'm new to this forum because i have a problem with my Nokia N93.I bought the phone in August from MediaMarkt Stuttgart and it worked perfectly until yesterday.I tried downloading a PDF from the internet,it downloaded it well but when i opened it,the phone said something like low memory and then gives App Closed Adobe PDF! Now everytime i try to open Adobe PDF it won't open.If you are fast you can see that it enters the program but then gives the error above (App Closed..). I tried restoring phone original settings but still won't work. Any ideeas on how to make it work?

    Great help from a nokia forum
    The problem is that companies who are offering a company forum on the internet don't realize that THEY have to get involved too, not only by setting up a forum and leaving the users alone. Unfortunately a lot of companies are doing that, they probably hope that this is the cheapest solution to offer online support for their customers (customer helps customer...). Bad thing to do.
    Well, getting back to your problem: I'm afraid you need to hard reset your phone and try again.
    I have serious problems with the Adobe Reader in the N93 or any other Series 60 3rd Ed. phone too because it doesn't seem to "like" larger files. This seems however to be Adobe's problem, not Nokia's problem. On the other hand I wonder if Nokia ever tested the Adobe Reader in their phones because when I try to open a 3 MB .pdf file, I'm running out of memory.
    Taking a look at the current Nokia products, I can't help to notice a pretty big difference in product/software quality from one phone model to the other. Maybe this has to do something with different development teams working on a phone or another but Nokia's reputation is taking a deep plunge downwards if they don't succeed to increase product and FW quality, even from the start of a new phone.

  • "Create Adobe PDF" Problems

    Hello!
    I would appreciate some help with the Create Adobe PDF function..
    When i right click a MS Word file and then choose "Convert to Adobe PDF" i get an error saying:
    Create Adobe PDF
    Unable to find "Adobe PDF" Printer or "Acrobat Distiller" printer.
    Do you want to run the installer in repair mode?
    Yes     No
    I ran the installer (Yes) and put the cd in. Afterwards i restarded the computer and tried again. But the same error pops up.
    Does anyone have any clues on how to get this fixed?

  • Print/Create Adobe pdf problems

    I have always been able to create a pdf of any page that I was viewing on the web or on Microsoft word.  I tried it again today and I am getting an error message.  I print the page and select the Adobe pdf as the printer.  Normally, it would ask me to rename it and to select the location I would like it saved.  I am now getting a message saying "Invalid Adobe pdf printer properties, Do not change spooler settings.  Please select Print directly to the printer option from the Advanced window."  I never changed my options so I am not sure why this would pop up suddenly.  I even try to change the setting like the message said but this ends up doing nothing but giving me an error message by the printer icon on the bottom of my screen.  What can I do?

    If you get this:
    Invalid "Adobe PDF" printer properties
    Do not change spooler settings.
    Please select "print directly to the printer" option (from Adobe PDF printer properties "advanced" tab)
    Try this:
    Find the Acrobat printer in Printers.
    Right click on it and select Properties then the Advanced Tab.
    For me, "Spool print documents..." was selected.
    The Fix:  Deselect "Enable advanced printing features".
    Click OK.

  • Print Adobe PDF problem: Device type related?

    Hi,
    we have developed a number of adobe print forms and we face a problem. The problem is that not all types of printers can directly print (without first preview the pdf) the form.
    We are using an output device with device type post2 (pdf1 works for some printers too) and access method F (Printing on Frontend computer) , but some printers work perfectly and others instead of the form, print out some postscript (or print) commands.
    We can as well change our printers and get some postscipt printers but the problem is that we want to give access and print the forms some of our partners who logon to our system via VPN and we cannot "force" them to buy new printers.
    Do you have any suggestion for this problem?
    Thanx in advance
    Kostas

    the ABAP Backend is sending a ADS-document in an XML format to the ADS Server (JAVA), the ADS returns a "Parts" for the forms. A "parts" consist of an PDF file and a print file (PostScript, PCL or ZPL), which are placed in the Global Directory. All the conversion should take place within the ADS Server.
    This "Parts" are then send as a PDF to the SAP Spooler.
    For the printing of this PDF document in the SAP Spool System one of the Device types (POST2, HPLJ4, HP9500, PDF1, AZPL203, AZPL300) is taken into account which send the actual PDF to a physical printer.
    What you see in SP01 are the "parts" of an ADS-document.
    Report RSPO0020 (for troubleshooting ADS printing issues) is displaying the "Parts", send back from ADS to the backend System
    The XDC file is the printer description in XML format, which the Adobe Document Services requires in order to create the "Parts" file. PDF documents can only be printed on printers of SAP device types for which there is an XDC file on the Adobe Document Server.  Report RSPO0022 can be used to manage the mapping between the printer device type and the XDC file

  • Adobe pdf problem; the message comes up:- There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired.

    Dear all
    I have got  3 mac computers. 2011 13 inch air, 27 inch mac and 2010 pro. latest softwares. all of them have a problem in opening pdf files;esp older files. the error message comes up 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired.'
    I have reinstalled reader, checked software updates etc.
    Any help will be appreciated

    It isn't likely to be a problem with the software. You have two different applications which have no interaction between them, neither of which can open the same group of files on three different systems. It's possible that one application has a problem, but not both or that one system has a problem, but not all three. Typically if there were software corruption, it would not show as a failure to open a specific type of file, but in opening and running the application itself.
    I realise that that doesn't really help you since it doesn't resolve the poblem, but I think you need to start with a known-good pdf, preferably one you can download from an internet source, and see whether that opens. If it does, then it would confirm that the software is working properly.
    For a known-good PDF to download, try one of the manuals from the support site here.

  • Printing to Adobe PDF problem

    CS3 suite installed on Windows XP.  When trying to print to PDF, I get the following:
    If I reboot the computer, it will fix itself and run fine for a few days, and then I get the message again.  I have tried "repairing" the installation via the Windows Control Panel, but it doesn't seem to fix it.  I don't get this problem on my Laptop installation of the same software using Windows 7. Does anyone have a clue?  Everything else within the CS3 platform seems to work ok.

    Perhaps so,e Acrobat update messes with this, but well, at that point Win XP is dead as in really dead, so anything is possible.

  • Printing to "Adobe PDF 8.0" from fails on Snow Leopard

    Creating a PDF using Apple's native "Save as PDF" functionality does not preserver hyperlinks created in Microsoft Word documents.
    On Snow Leopard 10.6.3, using Microsoft Office 2008 and Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.0, I have found that printing to the printer option called "Adobe PDF 8.0" fails to generate a PDF --- at all!
    The errors are below. I tried this with a very simple document that said "This document has a hyperlink." The result was the same regardless of whether the word "hyperlink" was a link or not.
    I found that printing any web page from Safari generates the same error. Looks like this is a general Adobe PDF problem on Snow Leopard -- or is it just my installation?
    Any help or pointers to help would be very much appreciated.

  • Possible fix for Adobe PDF plug ins (Safari & Print) on Snow Leopard

    I think I just discovered a "fix" for the Adobe PDF problem, as well as for some other miscelanious problems with Snow Leopard applications. I found the fix for the plug in from PDF on Adobe's website. http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50983.html
    Following these directions (changing the option from 64-bit, to 32-bit when the application loads), seems to have cured the plug-in for PDF from Adobe and loads the plug in properly.
    There is a link, http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/512/cpsid_51248.html for changing the settings similarly for Automator to fix the "save as PDF" in Print.
    I've also applied this "suggested fix" to Mail and Address Book, to see if it remedies some of the continued glitching and crashes on my iMac, even after the latest update (10.6.1). No problems with my PBG4, as it's not Snow Leopard nor Intel.
    Hope this solution is useful.

  • Memory Problems with Adobe PDF iFilter for 64-bit

    In preparation to rebuild my Windows Search Index, I installed the Adobe PDF iFilter for 64-bit on my system (Vista Business 64).  When I finally rebuilt the index, I wasn't too surprised by what I saw happen, namely, the SearchFilter.exe process would kick in whenever I wasn't using the system and just eat RAM.  One time I turned it on and it had allocated over 4,000 MB (and my system only has 4,030 MB available) so of course it was forcing all the other processes to hard fault (ie. everything was moving like molasses--for example, it took 20 minutes to put the thing to sleep).  But I just let it do it's work, figuring that perhaps this was to be expected relative to the small library of PDF's that I've accumulated on my computer, ranging from LaTeX generated text files, to containers for hi-res scans.  So, after a day and a half of basically not using my laptop, everything finally calmed down and I enjoyed the benefits of searching the content of my library from the Windows Start menu--for a short while.
    However, to my dismay I've encountered the problem that this freezing of my computer would now occur after everytime I download a new PDF (in this particular case they were Google Books scans) and then left the computer to idle.  Again, the SearchFilter.exe would allocate all of my RAM for itself and just push everything else onto the Virtual RAM, which means the SLOWEST possibly fetching you can get.  I had to uninstall as this was making my computer unusable for 15-30 minutes after each idle. Everything is back in working order without the iFilter, but I would like to know if anyone has reported such problems on x64 systems.  Obviously, I will also report the problem to Microsoft, since the search engine should certainly have the precaution to handle such memory problems.   However, it is a problem that is created by the Adobe PDF iFilter interacting with the Windows Search engine.

    Hello,
    We believe we have figured this out.  It looks like it has to do with the length of the default folder location for the Adobe iFilter.
    I was able to reproduce the issue and the following resolved it for me.  See if this resolves it for you all as well.
    Here is how to get Adobe Version 11 PDF filter to work.
     1 . If you haven’t already, run the following in SQL Server:
    Sp_fulltext_service ‘Load_os_resources’, 1
    Go
    --you might also need to run: 
    sp_fulltext_service ‘Verify_signature’,0  --This is used to validate trusted iFilters. 0 disables it. So use with caution.
    --go
    2. Stop SQL Server.  (Make sure FDHost.exe stops)
    3.  
    Uninstall the Adobe ifilter (because it defaulted to having spaces or the folder name is too long).
    4.  
    Reinstall the Adobe iFilter and when it prompts for where to install it, change it to: C:\Program Files\Adobe\PDFiFilter
    5.  Once the installation finishes, go the computer’s Environment variables. Add the following to the PATH.
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\PDFiFilter\BIN
    NOTE: it must include the BIN folder
    NOTE: If you had the OLD location that included spaces, remove it from the path environment variable.
    6. Start SQL Server
    7.  IF you had an existing Full-text index on PDFs, drop the full-text index and recreate it.
    8. You should now get results when you run sys.dm_fts_index_keywords('db','tblname')  --Note: Change db to be the actual database name and tblname to be the actual table name.
     Give this a try and see if this fixes yours. 
    Sincerely,
    Rob Beene, MSFT

  • Problem with "Save as Adobe PDF format" in Excel and Word

    Hi
    When I use printing zone in Excel and make a «Save as Adobe PDF format» (menu File / Save as Adobe PDF), the first save is well done. But when I make it a second time, what's not in the printing zone is printing in the document.
    I have also problem with the «Save as Adobe PDF format» in Word. The images superposition are not well print.
    I'm using Windows 7 in french, Office 2010 french and Adobe Acrobat XI standard. All is in the latest version.
    Thanks

    The Save As PDF feature in Office2008 Call up a PDF  Creator similar to the AdobePDF Print Driver. whch OX.6 can't use.
    To create Pdf you have to use method used:
    http://indesignsecrets.com/acrobats-adobe-pdf-printer-replaced-in-snow-leopard.php
    Not before you attempt to use this method if  Rossetta is not installed. pop in your Systems DVD and install Rosetta. Then follow directions to install the Adobe Quality PDF Automator Script which will show up in the Print Menu. Click on Print > then click PDF. Then Click on Adobe quality PDF.  AS for setting up Job options and other details Supposedly your suppose to  have access. But I have no idea.
    First thing Rosetta should be installed out of the box. and Second Adobe should install this Script from their installer. So their should be no intervention from the user. it should just work. Early report when OSX.6 first came out almost no one was able to get this to work. and I see periodic reports that people still can't get it tork and they have to to resort to saving as .ps files then droping on distiller.
    Good luck.

  • Firefox crashes when opening any Adobe pdf document from internet. This only seems to happens with firefox 6.0.2. Pls assist how to solve problem

    Good day,
    Please note Firefox is crashing every time I tried to open a pdf document I find in any internet webside. This is happening since I have installed Firefox 6.0.2. I temporarily solved the issue going back to Firefox 5. The problem is that my Mac installs automatically all the updates that might come from Firefox, including new or greater versions.... So, here I am again with Firefox 6.0.2 and not able to open Adobe pdf documents.....
    Would you please kindly assist to fix this issue...? Please note I have systematically sent a report every time Firefox has crashed, so you might have quite a few by now!
    Many thanks in advance for all your help and assistance.
    Francesca.

  • Acrobat 11 Pro - problem with right-click "Convert to Adobe PDF" output folder

    I'm migrating from one machine running Windows XP Pro with Acrobat 8 Pro to Windows 7 Pro with Acrobat 11 Pro.
    On the XP machine, when I right-click on a document and select "convert to Adobe PDF" the process works just fine - it always outputs the file to the target destination I have set in the Adobe PDF printer definition.
    On the Windows 7 Pro/Acrobat 11 Pro machine, the exact same settings are ignored: the PDF will always end up in the same folder as the source file.
    Both the source folder and the destination folder are on one of my office's networked drives.
    Under the Printing Preferences, I have the output folder address set the same on both machines, so it *should* go to the right location on the new machine.
    Oddly enough, on the Acrobat 11 Pro machine, if I select Adobe PDF as the default printer and do a test print, it *does* print to the correct folder!
    This has got me stumped!
    Thoughts?
    (update from later in the day)
    If Adobe PDF is selected as the default printer, I *can* select a bunch of documents, right-click, select "print", and Word will open up, and they'll print to the correct target folder.
    So, it's "just" the right-click "Convert to Adobe PDF" that doesn't work correctly.

    The reinstall is typically the last ditch effort to do. The first step is Help>Repair and Help>Updates. As far as Office 2013, the PDF Maker of AA X is not compatible and you can only print. In your list of errors it showed a problem with AcroTray.exe. As a first step, go to the print and select print-to-file. The file will be a PS file (maybe with a PRN extension). Once the printer if finished, open the file in Distiller to complete the process. If that is successful, then the problem is with AcroTray. Check your running tasks to be sure AcroTray is indeed running. If not, that is likely the problem. If it is, then restart it (it is located in the Acrobat folder). AcroTray provides the interface between the PS creation and Distiller to automate the process of creating the PDF.
