Adobe Reader 9 highlights text when scrolling in terminal server

Running a terminal server with WIndow 2003.  Have Adobe 9 Reader installed.  When a pdf is opened, it will look correct.  However, when one uses the scroll bar on the right to see more of the document, text can be highlighted and change colors constantly when scrolling.
Test it outside of terminal server and it works fine.  This issue did not happen with other versions of Reader.  I have attached two samples one clean and one highlighted. 
Any help is appreciated

Very cool. Thanks for the info!

Subject: Adobe Reader 9 highlights text when scrolling in terminal server
Okay. Here is what I found. These settings are changed\saved under the User settings in the registry. Here is the key the changes are made to:
HKCU\Software\Adobe\Adobe Reader\9.0\Originals
When "NONE" is selected from Adobe Reader - Edit - Preferences - Page Display - Rendering, three DWORD values are added to the above mentioned registry key. These are:
Value Name - Value Data
*bAntialiasText - 0
benableDDR - 0
iAntialiasThreshold - 12*
I have added these lines to a login script that adds the necessary DWORD values to default the "Rendering" to NONE.
*reg add "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals" /V bAntialiasText /T REG_DWORD /F /D 0
reg add "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals" /V benableDDR /T REG_DWORD /F /D 0
reg add "HKCU\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Originals" /V iAntialiasThreshold /T REG_DWORD /F /D 12*
Cheers!

    Can you check, whether patch KB2624667 is installed on your machine or not ? If “yes”, then uninstall that patch. Uninstall Reader. Restart your server and install Reader again using the steps mentioned in Enterprise Guide.
    Make sure to update the Reader version to latest version available.

  • Form is filled on iPad then emailed.  If form is opened with Adobe Reader all text is visible, but if opened with Acrobat XI no text is visible.

    Form filled on ipad.  When opened with Adobe Reader all text is visible, but if opened with Acrobat XI no text is visible- form is blank.   Have been using this system for months with  no problems.

    That suggestion makes sense and likely works, but only if the user is on a machine that will allow them to use Reader. I'm sending this out to a lot of teachers, who are using machines either at school, or are school-issued machines, and they don't have the admin privileges to install software-- even Reader.
    so my problem is, if they are stuck on a machine without Reader, and without the possibility of having Reader... it's just not going to work because Preview can't handle these functions.
    And, since that is not an acceptable answer with what I'm trying to do... I will find another way to create/submit forms. I think there are some online possibilities I will have to make work.
    very, very disappointing and frustrating.

  • Adobe Reader 9 Text selection with "." (dot) symbol

    Hello,
    My name is Ilya and I have a problem that have been bothering me since Adobe Reader permit text selection.
    So the problem:
    When I want to select a word in the text, I usually make a double click on the word I want to select. But if this word is in the end of the sentence, Adobe Reader also selects "." symbol. I.e., instead of "peace", Adobe Reader selected "peace." - It is pretty uncomfortable because I have to delete this "." symbol after copy/past.
    Thank you
    -Ilya

    Yes, in this case I have to use "normal" selection. But double-click selection much more faster than "normal" and it would be great if Adobe developers can fix this bug.

  • Issue with Adobe Reader XI Freezing when Printing/Opening Documents

    I've been having problems with Adobe Reader XI freezing when I attempt to print documents. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it several times. I've gone back to previous versions. I've disabled protected mode. I've run Adobe reader without background programs running. I've done a disk clean-up, and deleted temporary files. All to no avail. Is there anyone who can help me solve this problem.

    There's no built-in function in Reader that does that, but it can be done using a script.

  • How can I convert .pdf file to .doc using the free adobe reader app? when I try to convert the .pdf file it asks me to sign in. when I click on "sign in", I am taken to a service subscription page. So, no free conversions using free adobe reader app?

    As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
    What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF  to Word export.
    There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.

  • Hi, Adobe Reader XI crashes when I try to connect to a pdf online.

    Hi, Can anyone help, please? Adobe reader XI crashes when I connect to a pdf online. Pre-saved ones still read correctly. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader, and reset google chrome, but the problem is still there! What can I try next???

    Chrome uses its own PDF viewer, not the Adobe Reader plugin; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html

  • Adobe Reader displays text incorrectly as a thin grainy font

    Adobe Reader displays text incorrectly as a thin grainy font. How do I fix it?

    I think I counted three tabbed panels in the markup, each with an ID of TabbedPanels1
    You have only one constructor that makes one instance of the tabeed panels with an ID of TabbedPanels1
    There are a couple of things that create the problem.
    There can only be one ID with the same name in a document, thus the ID's of the TabbedPanels will need to change from TabbedPanels1 for the second and third instances to TabbedPanels2 and TabbedPanels3 (or similar) respectively.
    There needs to be a constructor for each tabbed panels like
    var TabbedPanels1 = new Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("TabbedPanels1");
    var TabbedPanels2 = new Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("TabbedPanels2");
    var TabbedPanels3 = new Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("TabbedPanels3");

  • Highlighting button and text when scrolled over

    Hello,
    I have a menu that I wouldlike the four buttons to be highlighted when scrolled over wiht the navigator. I a way that only one shall be highlighted then you press down and the next will become highlighted, leaving the other one with no highlight. Any help?

    In this case you would need to use a highlight layer created in an image app like Photoshop. The background image for the menu would not contain any text, just a shape (or whatever) to indicate to the viewer there is a button there. The overlay would then contain the text to appear within the button area.
    You would create this in gray scale, and use the colour mapping tools within DVDSP to allocate the desired colours for the selected and activated states.
    In this way, only the background area will show when the button is not selected (i.e. is in the 'normal' state), but clicking on (or mousing over) the buttons will reveal the text in the highlight layer.

  • Adobe Reader highlight tool no longer filling text, just creating a line around the text

    The Highlight tool in Adobe reader is no longer working as it used to.  Instead of filling the text, as it used to, the tool just creates a line around the text.  This makes the highlights much harder to spot.
    I'm running Win 8 and using Adobe Reader XI version 11.0.09.
    I've attached a screenshot to illustrate.  The way the tool used to work, they way I want it to, is shown by all the highlighted text in the document.  The way it currently works, is shown on the first line of text , where a portion of the text has been highlighted using the tool as it works now.  I just creates a yellow line around the text.
    I've checked the way the highlight settings are on both the old highlighted text and the new text and they appear identical.  Both the colour and opacity percentage settings are the same.
    Very frustrated.  Any help appreciated.

    Very strange. I'm not sure what the reason for this behaivour is, but try right-clicking one of the previous highlights and selecting "Make Current Properties Default". Then try to create a new highlight...
    Did that.  No effect.

  • Why won't adobe reader show text?

    I am working for my eagle scout rank and in order to do my service project, a form must be filled out on the computer as a pdf. I started the PDF on my old dell, and i downloaded Adobe reader for my mac to finish it. For preview, it takes the lines of the paragraph and overlaps the words, rendering it unreadable, and for adobe reader, the words are invisible unless editing those words. when the text box isnt selected the words disappear. Why isnt this working and is there a setting i can change to fix this?

    Why isnt this working
    Difficult to say without further details. The fact that both Preview and Adobe Reader have difficulties with it suggests that the file itself may be corrupt—or that you have fonts issues on your Mac.
    You need to isolate the problem. Download another PDF file and check if it shows any anomalies. Gather info on the problem file; eg, in Preview, use Inspector (Tools > Show Inspector) and check PDF version, content creator, and PDF creator.

  • Adobe Reader move the vertical scroll bar from left to right

    Hi,
    is it possible to move the vertical scroll bar from left to right in Adobe Reader 9?
    If not, are you planning to implement this functionality?

    I meant from right to left, sorry
    You see, I'm left handed and when I use the scroll bar that is on the right side with the left hand I don't actually see the content of the page, because my left hand is covering the screen (I'm browsing the internet in tablet mode and I use the pen to navigate between pages).
    My system is a Tablet PC with Windows XP Tablet Edition 2005 and Adobe Reader 9.3.2.
    P.S. can you edit my post so the google indexes it right? (
    from right to left
    instead of "from left to right")
