Adobe Pro 9.0 Compare functionality

Does a PDF have to have tags for the compare functionality to work?

frstrsystemI make a fix, here it is:
1) I launch acropro 9 on the server, I go to the view->toolbars->tasks menu to the "tasks" toolbar (which cause the crash).
2) on the server, run regedit and go to current user\software\adobe\adobe acrobat\9.0 and export this hive on a file like acrobat9_user.reg
3) create a acro9pro.cmd file with
regedit /S n:\scripts\acrobat9pro_user.reg
@start "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\" Acrobat.exe
save this file on the server
publish your app and call the CMD instead of the acrobat file
trick; you can map drive into the cmd so that user can access network shares and not only the server on.

Adobe Acrobat 9 missing "Compare" function.

I cannot find the "Compare" selection that so many online explanations refer to. Is it possible that there are "variants" of Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard that do not have the "Compare Two Files" feature?

Please ignore this question. After some research it turns out that "Standard" does not have the Compare Two Files feature (though there were conflicting statements about the presence/absence of that command).

I have a document for review that was initated in ADOBE PRO 9 that I would like to remove a reviewer from. How is this done?

I have a PDF document that was created and a copy was placed in a separate folder. The document was then Sent for Review to my email recipients. This works fine and we are able to review and publish with no problem. Now one of the recipients is having "credentialing" issues and the document locks up on him. I would like to know how I can remove him from the reviewers and resend the request to him. I am trying to troubleshoot as of right now on this. I am no expert on Adobe so answers will need explanation. I forgot to mention that we are using Windows 7 and this is between Adobe Pro and Standard.

- You can't install Acrobat Pro alongside Acrobat Standard. You will need to remove Standard to be able to install Pro.
- You (probably) can't upgrade your license if it's a part of an enterprise license. The entire license will need to be upgraded.
- It's not possible to install just the "Compare Documents" function as a sort of add-on to Acrobat Standard.

Document Compare Function in Acrobat Professional 9

Document Compare function
I use the 'compare' function to compare documents versions etc for changes. It looks like only 250 pages is the maximum number of pages that can compared during each operation.
I am using documents that are 900+ pages and I keep the error message/screenshot attached.
Is this a limitation with Acrobat Professional 9?

Yes, it would appear to be a limitation that Adobe have put in. I'm in a similar situatiion where I have documents up to 2500 pages long that must be compared so while it takes longer I do the compare in batches of 250 pages at a time. It could be as a result of resource usage. I'm finding that when I do a compare, the fisrt one is generally ok but after that Acrobat slows down considerably - it may just be my computer (XP Pro 1.5 GB RAM and 2.8 GHz) but I'd like to know does Acrobat empty the cache or is the cache filling up after each compare and hogging resources?
It's a great function but I wish it would work the way I expect it to.
Cheers

Pdf form created in Acrobat 9 Pro Extended does not function properly when viewed by Reader

Hello all-
I have created a form in Acrobat 9 Pro Extended and have an issue because when others view the form in Adobe Reader some of the functions do not work- such as the attach a file button I created, or the save, print buttons (all are execute a menu item). These work on my Acrobat 9 Pro Extended but not on Reader.
I have tried saving many different versions- with security (password) and made sure to allow printing and commenting, editing, digital signatures etc...
Without any security...
Even tried extending features in Adobe Reader!
The response from others is that it all works, except the ATTACH A FILE button- when they click on it it compresses, but, nothing happens!
I don't know what else to do! (I guess people could just attach things to the e-mail that is generated from the submit button, but worried people might forget at that step once they are past that section on the form and they jump to email to submit).
Help please!
A.

I've already extended the rights and made sure to save to activate that... as well as password protected the docs etc... still nothing...
I am aware that those with Basic Adobe Reader need rights extended to be able to use functions available to Adobe Pro.

You can directly delete the application from Applications folder, that is just trash /Applications/Adobe Reader.app. Also this may cause a break in Safari functionality to read PDF files using Adobe Reader plugin. To resolve this, go to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ and remove AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin

Adobe Pro 9.0 crashes on menu button clicks in Citrix

This bug is occuring while using Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.0 using Citrix MetaFrame Presentation server as a remote application. I have already posted this on the Citrix forums, but it might be worth a shot posting here to see if anyone can help.
This may sound like an oddball problem, and it is, but Adobe Acrobat 9.0 crashes whenever you click on any of the quick menu options. We have found a few ways around this issue, but some of the features eventually
bring you to a command that as soon as you click on it, the program crashes.
There is no error message, the program just disappears. I am able to run Adobe Pro just fine on the console, with all of the buttons working normally. But when accessed through the MetaFrame Presentation Server, it seems like the connection isn't functioning at 100%. Sometimes even right-clicking on a certain box will close the program.
One specific example, (the reason I can no longer dodge the problem) is the "Combine PDFs" feature. Obviously, clicking the "Combine" menu button will crash the program. But the same action is accessible through the file menu. However once you have that command open, the "Add File" button is the only way to select which files you wish to combine, and this button crashes the program. Now that I have no choice being that there is a feature our users need but cannot use, I am posting this question because my need is dire.
I have done many hours of research on this issue, and haven't had any luck. I've already tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Pro, making sure it has the latest updates, etc. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,

Form created in ES2 can't be viewed in adobe pro version 8

Hello,
I created a form in ES2 (version 9). I saved it to be compatible with the older version. As the form is sent to users and is filled out. As I receive the form back and open it in adobe pro 8, the drop-down list values that users selected disappear. The drop-down lists are populated by a javascript function with 2 dimentional array. Thus, as user selects a value for dropdown1, the dropdown2 list is populated based on the value on dropdown1.
Somehow, the values selected for these dropdowns are not shown when I view the form with adobe pro 8.
Could someone tell me why that happens and what to do to fix it?
Thank you very much for your help.

Depending on your Designer version (no longer able to set it in UI in Designer 10, for example), strictscoping is set in the form properties of the form (File->Form Properties->defaults).
However, since this is just happening in Reader 8.0.0, it sounds like you hit a bug in that version.
FYI: Support for Reader 7.x, and Reader 8.x have been end of lifed by Adobe.
Best bet is to use Reasder 9 and above if they work, and it sounds as if they do.

Adobe pro 9 creating blanks

HI, I'm hoping someone can help me out. I converted an excel document (which chooses the page I am saved on to convert) using Adobe Pro 9.0 and then ran my "Flowfile" which filed it into my efiling cabinet. (I am also running Windows 7 incase that is important). When I went to open the Adobe document it was blank / no image at all. It was also blank using Adobe Pro 8.0 to view. When you open the blank pdf document and look at the properties, there is nothing showing on the fonts tab. On the Description tab under properties, under Advanced Metadata the 9.0 document lists Application as PScript 5.dll version 5.2.2
I then used another machine and converted the excel document (which again chose the page I am saved on to convert) using Adobe 8.0 pro and ran my "Flowfile" to file into my efiling cabinet. When I went to open the newly converted document is was showing the page image correctly. Under document properties, Description tab, Advanced Metadata lists Application Data as Acrobat PDFMaker 8.1 for Excel.
When I compared the document properties, the only difference I can see is distiller version and the Application info under Advanced Metadata.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks
Tricia

Hi,

I will decativate the product and use the same license on an another PC.

Adobe pro 8: how to make an existing secure encrptyed form unfillable after editing

Hello,
as the discussion topic says.
adobe pro 8: how to make an existing secure encrptyed form unfillable after editing? Is it even possible to do in adobe pro 8?
For work there's a secure and encrptyed form. I want to write in the form and save it so it will be unfillable / uneditable.
this form is not created by myself, and already secure and encrypted.
I am aware that in other recent adobe pro versions on how to do this, since they have a " save as a copy" function in the file menu. (adobe 8 doesnt have)
I've also tried printing as a PDF, but due to encryption of the form, that doesn't come out great.
Upgrading to a recent version of adobe pro is not an option.
I've also tried exporting as a picture files and then recombinding them to a pdf. I dont like this method and find it time consuming.
If possible please inform me of a way to solve this problem , step by step with adobe pro 8's features.
or
show me the equivalent method to how recent versions "save a copy" of a secure encrypted form on adobe pro 8.
Thanks in advance for reading this thread and helping.

Well after you use save a copy, and the security is disabled, you could then re enable security features and disable editing of the form.
EDIT: I just tested , with a PDF is in secure mode, even using a "save a copy" feature wouldn't work.
Would finding a program to desecure the pdf be a possible option?
Or is there a way to copy the form (with all it's editable fields) and paste it as an unsecure pdf?
You would then be able to make new security features.
thanks for replying and viewing this problem.

Using adobe pro 9 to move photos out of jpeg into a word doc and keeping name of file as well

Hi
I had an issue at work today and I wanted to move 300 jpeg photos into word. The file became very large and I query whether adobe pro 9 can reduce size of the picture and also the size of the file before putting it into word. I also wanted the name of the file to appear.
Thanks
marie

Sorry I may not have been clear. With adobe pro 9 there is a function to combine files which is what I did. I selected all the jpegs right hand click to convert to adobe (in windows). This was sufficient for my purpose but I wanted the name of the file to also appear on each of the jpeg files. I heard it is possible.

Can I use more than 1 e-mail "attach e-mail" selection to send pdfs? - Adobe Pro X

I know that Adobe Pro makes you chose one e-mail but I send regularly and daily several times a day from from several e-mails for several functions for work. It would be nice if I could use Adobe Pro X. Or am I destined to switch to SendNow?
I did notice that the free Adobe Reader XI, will let me send to as many different e-mails as I like if I don't designate a "home" e-mail as I had to with Adobe Pro. Pretty for free.
Thanks,
LibraryLady315

It is not clear what you mean by several e-mails? Do you mean different e-mail clients? If so, probably not. The e-mail is sent to the default mailer specified in your system. If you mean something else, then please explain. When I select "Attach to email" in the file menu of AA8, it goes directly to my default client and opens up an e-mail with the PDF attached.

Links in web browser opposed to Adobe Pro

I have a problem that I am trying to fix. I have an intranet map application(opened in IE) that allows in house users to *click* a feature to open a general Information.pdf about that map feature (ie. street sign). the general information pdf has links to additional pdf's about that sign(inspection reports, etc)
The preferences>Internet in Adobe Pro 9.2 are set to open in the program not the web browser because editing capabilities for the users are manditory.
So the problem is that when the general information.pdf is opening it opens in an IE temp directory fashion and not in its network location (\\jacas02\structures\app..... etc). The link to the additional documents are then looking for those additional documents in a location relative to the temp file location(C:\Documents and Settings\.....etc) and not the actually document location on the network. Therefore the document/file can not be found.
If we enable the pdf to be opened in the web browser everything works fine but we don't have the adobe pro functionality. Any suggestions or links to related articles would be greatly appreciated.
Also, can adobe pro functionallity be enabled in the adobe IE web browser?
thanks for any suggestions!
jac

This is a map application served by ArcGIS Server. I don't think that is relevant though. I suspect that this is between IE and Adobe.
How would setting a base URL be applied? All of the General Info pdf's are in one folder on the network \\jacas02\structures\app\INFO
Then within that INFO folder I have additional folders that contain all of the linked documents that are not being found because adobe is opening the file from IE in a temp location.
If I set the base URL to \\jacas02\structures\app\INFO should that work even though it is a 'UNC'?
thanks for you interest, it seems that this should be a easy issue to solve but its got me stumped.
Also, forgot to add. The links have always been relative in adobe as long as you keep them organized the same as when you created the links in adobe.

Live Cycle vs Adobe Pro.

I know most of you are thinking, if this guy has no clue what the difference is, he is in trouble.   I am trying to design a form,   should i use adobe pro or go thru Live Cycle, what is easier.
Also where is the best place to find out how to do stuff.    I have a book being sent.   any great sites online to help newbee out.
thank you
yes, this will be a long project, first time.   always fun.
thanks
jk

They are right that it is important. A key point that many form developers miss is that Reader is limited - it doesn't just not have the creating/editing stuff. There are particular functions that either are or aren't in Reader or depend on particular setups that might or might not have been done. To really support your users consider virtual machines for their various configurations.

Hi,
sorry for asking stupid question
where do I put document script in adobe pro?

Subject: Initialize Script in Adobe Pro created PDF
Just put the code directly in a document script. Any code in the document script (that is not a function) will execute on opening the document (assuming that Javascript has not been disabled on the user's end).
