Adobe Reader 9 Maximized GUI issue?

Could someone here that uses Adobe Reader 9.33 confirm if the GUI gets messed up when making Adobe Reader Maximized.
As you can see in the screenshot link below on my computer at random time when I make Adobe Reader Maximized the border of the window disappears.
Is this a known bug in the latest release of Adobe Reader?
To test keep hit "Restore Down" and "Maximized" buttons a few times and see if it happens to you.
I am running Windows 7 64 Bit.
I uninstalled and tghen reinstalled and this keeps happening.
Please open the following link in a new tab or window.

AutoIT worked a treat.
I used the following code:-
; Open Adobe Reader 9
Run("C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe")
; Close Adobe Reader 9
WinWaitActive("Adobe Reader")
WinClose("Adobe Reader")
Then compiled as .exe and added to my script. Hope this helps others.

  • Adobe Reader 9.1.3 Issues with browser viewing and printing

    I have several users reporting issues after upgrading to Adobe Reader 9.1.3
    Issue #1:  User tries to open a PDF on a bank website using Adobe 9.1.3 but receives an error stating file could not be found.  Adobe 9 was uninstalled and Adobe 6 re-installed.  The file on the bank website was then viewable without issue.
    Issue #2:  Different user successfully opens pdf on a different bank website, but is unable to print while viewing in browser using Adobe 9.1.3.  User had to save file to desktop and reopen locally to print from Adobe 9.1.3.   Uninstalling 9.1.3 and re-installing Adobe 6 allowed them to print from the browser successfully.
    Issue #3:  turning off "View in Browser" causes the error "File cannot be found" when trying to view a PDF on a website.  This appears to be happening on sites external to our network, but not on internal sites.  Turning on "View in Browser" corrects the problem.
    Any assistance that can be provided would be greatly appreciated!

    To clarify my previous post, I had already seen http://forums.adobe.com/message/1770581 .  I mentioned in my post that I get the message "Preview not supported" when I click the Preview button from the print dialog in Adobe Reader, and thus concluded that the "Preview" workaround discussed in that thread wasn't helping me.
    However, re-reading that post, they were talking about using the Mac "Preview" application to print the pdf file.  Like every other application (other than Reader) I have tried, the Mac's Preview application prints just fine, and is another workaround.
    The only program that doesn't print for me is Adobe Reader.
    BTW, I also have an Intel chip in my MacBook Pro.
    Re-installing Leopard, as suggested by one post in that thread, is not a reasonable option for this problem.
    In fact, since Preview allows me to view and print .pdf's , my solution is probably just going to be not to use Adobe Reader.  In fact, had I not been new to the Mac, I would have known that I didn't need Adobe Reader at all.
    However, I'm glad this happened, in the sense that I use CS3 on the PC, and had considered moving to CS4 on the Mac.  However, since Adobe apparently hasn't figured out how to get printing to work on a Mac from their flagship product (!), I will be sure to do a lot of testing of CS4 before considering buying the upgrade.

  • Adobe Reader X save location issue

    Hi All, i would like to seek expert helps on Adobe Reader save location issues. After we upgrade from Adobe Reader 9 to Adobe Reader X.
    There are changes on how save location works in Adobe Reader X
    If save PDF via Internet Explorer – the save location will according to last save location, HOWEVER
    If save PDF via Adobe Reader X – the save location will set according to location the file is being open
    Let me show you what i mean over the pictures
    I open a reader_X_help.pdf using Adobe Reader X and then save the file using Ctrl+Shift+S at: C:\Users\xxxx\Documents\My last location save
    refer my last save location.jpg
    Now i want to save another new file back to C:\Users\xxxx\Documents\My last location save, I open the file Adobe file2.pdf located at desktop and when i do Ctrl+Shift+S, the location point to my desktop and not C:\Users\xxxx\Documents\My last location save
    refer my last save location change to desktop.jpg
    I have tested this features in Adobe Reader 9 and it's different whereby it's will point according to my last location save.
    There is no issue with computer as i have 3 machine running different enviroment, Windows XP SP3, Windows 7 Enterprise, and all using same version of Adobe Reader X version 10.0.1.
    So my questions & concern:
    Is there any way to change the save location features same as Adobe Reader 9?
    If YES, how to do it? By Computer Changes or Adobe Reader X packages modification using Adobe Customization tools?
    If NO, Where can i find this source of documentation stated about this new changes so i can publish this information in HP website as new design changes to avoid complaint or negative feedback.
    Looking forward for expert reply as soon.
    Thank you very much and Have a great day.
    Best Regards

    Solved it!
    1-go to "edit", select Preferences.
    2-select from the left pane: Security (enhanced)
    3-click on "add folder path" button just below the big white box
    4-pick a folder of your choice and click "ok". (your selected folder path will appear in that white box above the "add folder path" button in step 3)
    5-if you want to add additional folders, just repeat steps 3 & 4
    6-once you are done, click "ok" on the preferences screen and click "ok" again to accept the changes.
    Yes, it seems illogical, but it worked.
    I tested by closing the Reader (X), then surfed the web and did what Neher5 was explaining he/she wanted to do just after opening a pdf from a website and lo-and-behold,  it worked!. No more "save to temp folder" issues.
    Hope this helps.

  • Adobe Reader 9 Linux GUI problems

    Hi!
    I've been using Linux Mint 8 since October 2009. Before that I was using Debian Lenny. I'm trying to use Adobe Reader 9.3 for working with multiple pdf documents. I've run into some problems that didn't seem to exist when I was using it on Lenny (although it was also using Adobe Reader 9.1, so I'm not sure where the problem lies). Here are the problems...
    If I have a large number of pdf's open in tabs, I can view one, but to print, I have to click once somewhere in the toolbar before the print button works - essentially I have to click twice to activate the print button. After that, I cannot activate another tab until I first click somewhere on the document window. Between all these clicks, the mouse pointer is switching back and forth between the nice and smooth Linux mouse pointer, and the ugly and pixelly pointer that Reader uses for some reason. Finally, if I have more tabs open than fit in the width of the window, clicking on the left or right arrows that scroll the tabs scrolls all the way to the very last or very first tab. It will not just move over by one tab. If there is a really, really long list of tabs, I cannot get to the ones in the middle.
    Anyone have a solution for this? I cannot use Evince or other Linux-based pdf viewers due to the startling lack of tab support (really should be a common thing by now, in my opinion). I just don't want to have to juggle tons of windows.
    Thanks!

    I am not fully familiar with Mint, but it is based on Ubuntu ..
    Update to the latest version of Adobe Reader, and re-check these issues.
    TO UPDATE
    Check in Synaptic that the 'partner' software repository is enabled.
    At terminal type:
    (if required) update your system
    ~:   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade  <Enter>
    install latest Acrobat Reader (for Ubuntu Linux), AND font packs
    ~:   sudo apt-get install acroread acroread-fonts  <Enter>
    Then look for Adobe Reader in the applications menu (top left of screen).

  • Adobe Reader X EULA agreement issues

    This has been commented on before, but I have a few other things to add we have seen at our company.
    Previous thread was http://forums.adobe.com/message/3791868
    Issue 1:
    Cannot open emailed pdf attachment or any PDF locally that contains the uppercase Letters "CR" in the title.
    Three workarounds:
    1. Have Adobe Reader opened first before opening the pdf file attachment.
    2. Save and rename the file—removing the uppercase CR.
    3. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\FeatureLockDown]
    "bProtectedMode"=dword:00000001
    Options 1 and 2 are not a good solution for the mass public when you may have 100's of thousands of files that contain CR. Option 3 we cannot use because of a conflict with SAP software we use.
    Issue 2:
    Pdf document will not open and gives the EULA screen
    Resolution:
    Check to see if the client has the full version of Adobe Pro.
    If so, uninstall Adobe Reader X, using the Add/Remove Programs.
    A repair may also be needed on the Adobe Pro (use repair found in Add/Remove Programs for
    Adobe.)
    There may be a Adobe "Best Practices" article I missed, but this was the first major issue we had with clients running both Acrobat and Reader on the same computer.
    Is there any sort of patch expected from Adobe to correct these?

    We fixed this issue by installing patch 10.1.1. You can download this patch from Adobe’s FTP site: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/10.1.1/misc/ .
    The cause was that many of our auto-generated documents contained the “CR” in either the filename or pathname.
    Good luck fixing this issue!

  • Adobe Reader 10 & 11 Printer Issues

    Printing double sided and with staples doesn't work with adobe reader.
    I print 2 copies double sided with staples, without collationIt prints 2 copies, but staples pages 1 together, 2 together, 3 together. It won't stable pages 1,2,3 together as one document
    I print 2 copies double sided with staples with collationIt prints 2 copies in the right order, but it only uses 1 staple to staple all of the documents together.
    I can print double sided with staples on word and it comes out correct. So this issue is isolated with only Adobe Reader.
    One fix I see people doing, is reverting back to adobe reader 9. But adobe no longer has adobe reader 9 available for download.
    Did anyone find a fix to this? I see a lot of unanswered forum questions about this. I even called adobe about this issue, but they refused to answer the question.

    Hi Jonthegiant,
    Issue mentioned in steps 2 is know issue.
    I would suggest you may send the other scenarios using this link: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&loc=en

  • Adobe reader error: Dictionary Key issue

    Dear Team,
    We have issue while opening PDF's in Adobe reader X and XI.
    Few people receive error: Adobe dictionary key Error : LOcal\
    Any assistance on how this can be resolved is much appreciated.
    Reg,
    Akhilesh

    Assuming that you are in Win (which you haven't said), you can try using this tool to remove all traces of previous versions of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, download the full offline Reader installer from 
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    and run it immediately after restarting your computer.

  • Adobe Reader for iPad Accessiblity issues

    When using the Adobe Reader for iPad app with the IOS reader, images that have alt text attached do not get read. How can I fix this in the PDF or the accessibility features so the images are read?

    Adobe Reader for iOS has limited accessibility right now, reading alt text for images is one of the things which is still in our to-do's.
    You might see this as a part of our future updates, but we can't commit when it will reach to you.

  • Adobe Reader X 3D performance issues

    hi all.
    since a while i develop 3D scenes within the adobe reader. yesterday i updated my version 9.4 to the current one X. if i now start the reader and press the option "show in floating window" in the 3d scene i get a real big perfomance problem. objects in the scene can't move, animations doesn't work and even a change of the camera takes a little eternity. if the scene is not in a floating window everything ist fine. the floating window in the reader 9.0 to 9.4 does a great job but not in the version X.
    has anyone an idea what the problem could be?
    best regards
    frank.

  • Adobe Reader X - Service Broker issue

    Hi,
    I have created my service broker to run my plugin for Adobe Reader X but just when I click on of the button of my toolbar, it says 'Class not registered' error and then I have to kill the instance of Adobe Reader X. Please provide any pointer or help to resolve this error. Also, I have the latest SDK (for X version), is there any sample available to create service broker? Kindly provide some reference as we are not able to proceed further anymore.
    We have already checked the web pages to get to know that we need to create 'Service Broker' but nowhere we found any sample for this.

    Irosenth,
    Can you please let us know if there is any sample in the SDK files that we can use?

  • Adobe Reader X duplex printing issue

    Each time I try to print a pdf, the application changes the default duplex from no duplex (single sided set in the properties of the printer in windows control panel ) to duplex(print on both sides).  I can uncheck the box to have it not print the duplex.
    This is frustrating because each time I open a new pdf I have to do this?
    Adobe reader X
    Printer is a Kyocera 1128
    Any one got any ideas?

    I was having the same problem, and I found the answer on another site. To fix it, you need to edit/create a registry key:
    Open Regedit, and surf to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\AVGeneral
    Look for a DWORD named "iDuplexMode". If it's there, change the value to 1
    If it's not there, create it - Add a new DWORD, name it "iDuplexMode" (no quotes) and enter the value 1
    Close Regedit, and restart Reader if you had it running.
    Now the printing dialog will default to having duplex turned off.
    The only problem with this is it will only work for the current user...For multi-account machines, you'll have to do this for every user, or create a .reg file for them to import.

  • Adobe Reader X (10) plugin issue

    Hi,
    My plugin is working fine in Adobe Reader 9 but all problem occurs for the newer version.
    (1) I don't see my plugin on the toolbar like Adobe Reader 9, is this way Adobe Reader X made or any solution? Currently it is showing as side-panel.
    (2) My plugin doesn't work if protected mode is ON. If I switch-off it's working fine but it doesn't show my plugin completely. It has scraped almost half and there is no way to drag it.
    (3) Is there any separate certificate required to run my plugin with security mode ON? we already have Adobe Reader certificate which works fine with Adobe Reader 9.
    Please help me out or the reference/pointers if any?

    1) - yes, this is how it works now. Nothing can write to the application toolbars.
    2) - yes, plugins have often to be re-written to allow for Protected Mode. It depends on what it's trying to do.
    3) - no, but you have to code allowing for the zero-elevation process model.
    As you seem to have a Reader integration key, you should address SDK support questions to the contacts given to you when you registered for it.
