Adobe Reader Causing Text Issue in IE11

When I type in IE11, after having opened Adobe Reader, all of the characters are numeric. They go from 0 to 9 and repeat. I have to reboot my computer for the problem to go away. Any thoughts?

What is your operating system?
What is your Reader version?

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 - access issue

I have the latest Reader: but I find I cannot access PDF documents from saved emails & directly from My Documents - I get the message 'H:\programme files\Adobe\Reader9.0\Eula.exe Windows cannot access the specified path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item' I am computer administrator.
I have Windows SP3
I use ZoneAlarm Pro & anti-virus (just in case this might be relevant)
Can anyone assist with an explanation & solution?

re Adobe Reader 9 access issue, 20 Dec
It appears this is not an Adobe Reader issue at all. I have had the same trouble downloading an update to an unrelated programme.
The solution appears to be in ZoneAlarm Pro - I have set the trust level and access permissions for Internet Explorer to 'super trusted' and 'allow' (programme control - programmes), and this seems to have worked.
Other forums point the finger at restrictions in IE7 Enhanced Security feature, and to similar restrictions in some anti-virus/anti spyware programmes. Also, some .exe files for download come automatically blocked, & need unblocking (right-click the .exe, choose properties, then general tab, where there is an 'unblock' button at the bottom.

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");

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.

Adobe Reader 9 Displaying Issue

Hi All,
Right now I am using Adobe Reader 9 to display on the web page. While displaying the dynamic contents, its displaying Vertically.
Note :
1 . The page I have designed with Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.
2 . The page is portrait format.
3 . When I click the "Highlight Field Button" the text seems fine (i.e. Horizontally).
4 . I have to use this on the IE web browser.
I have written a javascript code to disable the "Highlight Field Button", it worked fine for me. But I think its not a permanent solution to this issue.
Could anybody tell me how to remove this "Highlight Field Button" from the Adobe Reader 9? (either by writing a script or by disabling from the Adobe Reader 9 features or any special things I need to consider)
If there is a problem understanding the issue then please let me know.
Thanks & Regards,
Pranabesh

Hi All,
Appending to above disscussion, below were the two images I am attaching with this post.
Image 1 : Its a portrait view of the form, where the text in the fields are showing properly (Horizontal Orientation.)
Image 2 : Its a lanscape view of the form, where the text in the fields are showing properly (Vertical Orientation.)
Issue :
Why the texts are being transformed to verical manner while showing on the landscape forms?
Note :
1 . The page I have designed with Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro in landscape orientation.
2 . When I click the "Highlight Field Button" the text seems fine (i.e. Horizontally).
3 . I using this form on the IE web browser.
4 . If I disable the "Highlight Field Button" the texts are back in their original orientation. But this is not a permanent solution to the above issue.
Could anybody tell me how to make the text visible in its original orientation i.e., Horizontally?
If there is a problem understanding the issue then please let me know.

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?

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 X installation issue

Adobe Reader X installation caused me a very strange, unusual problem. My OS is Win XP SP3 and I have already installed Adobe Acrobat v.9.4.5.
The installation process went fine, but when my system had to be restarted after the installation at the domain login the system requested me to change my password, because of the expiring. It was very strange, because the PW has been changed 2 weeks before regarding the official 3 months period rule. I did the change now again, but after that I could not reach anyway a https web site (with certificate) and additionally has been destroyed my predefined signature in the Adobe Acrobat.
Well, after a longer wrestling with my system I could restore the missed functionalities (I had to remove the Reader too for this). However later I needed again the Reader for a test purpose and after the new installation exactly the same problem happend as above I described!
Has someone faced with any similar case?
BR: Dzsenix

Thanks for the info. Maybe that would be nice to build into the Reader and/or Acrobat a function to check any existing installed Adobe versions on the PC and warn the user if there would be any incompatibility issue during the installation of a new Adobe product. Many no-name programs can do that............ The great Adobe no would be able to do that???????

Adobe Reader/Acrobat Printing Issues - Weird Fonts / Characters - all versions

Hi everybody.
I'm experiencing a very nasty issue with both adobe reader (last version) and acrobat.
When I print something with text, i get only strange characters, mostly symbols.
I cannot get out of this, I tried everything.
Already tried
1) print as image does not works, it's the same
2) the box in pdf printer " print only with fonts on pc" is checked
3) reinstalled both adobe applications
3) reinstalled printer drivers
4) i've installed and reinstalled those so called missing fonts but nothing
Next step is to change PDF reader. Any help?

unfortunately it didn't work.
It's weird how an application (company) like this could not provide those kind of such easy fixes. I'm not expecting updates or so, but at least a troubleshooting paragraph about this specific problem.
This problem is well known, there are plenty of pages talking about it.
I just installed Foxit reader and printed pages were perfect. This demonstrate's Adobe Reader/Acrobat fault.

Adobe Reader 9 printing issue

My printing preferences are to print from the last page and to have a preview prior to printing. It is set that way in the Printer area of the control panel. Adobe Reader does not recognize that preference. I need to select those options each time I print a PDF file or it doesn't do it. We recently got a new computer and that is when the problem started. We have Windows 7, 64 bit and use IE8. Thanks for any help offered.

Hi, ak glacier.
I can almost guarantee what will fix the problem. I came on here to create a case to explain this scenario, constant thumbnails, etc. and look for help, but I'm relatively certain that one or both of these will fix the issue.
On the Adobe Reader window, hit the Advanced button, and check "Print As Image". Though this does take a bit longer to send the document to the printer it will fix this issue 99% of the time in my experience. That will also fix constant thumbnails and mirror image thumbnails. The latter may also occur when "Choose paper source by PDF page size" is selected. "Print As Image" should override that, but if not, also try unchecking "Choose paper source..." and pick the page size in either page setup or the properties of the driver.
As a note to others that may stumble across this, I have seen this issue occur on multiple HPs, Canons, Konicas, and Toshibas (usually postscript drivers) with Adobe Reader 7, 8, and 9. I have yet to narrow down what causes it further.

Adobe Reader - Italic texts appears as Regular

Hi,
In earlier, I had an issue in print PDF documents using Adobe Reader wherein all Italic texts are printed as Regular. I found the below link from Adobe and upgraded the version I am using and the issue were fixed.
Can't print italics | Mouseover problems | Acrobat 10.1.1 or 9.4.6 update
Currently, I am using Version 11.0.07, under Macintosh and I come through the same issue. The case is that, I have created 10 PDF documents from a single application (say Chapter wise), in which 7 of them prints well whereas in 3 of PDFs, Italic texts printed as Roman. Is that a bug in the Reader?

Before anything else, try updating to 11.0.09.

Adobe Reader X - Print Issues

Hi - I've searched the forums for a likely answer but came up with a blank.
We have updated to Adobe Reader X and when we print a pdf, the actual words print as a series of randon numbers and letter. We print to an HP Photosmart All in One Printer. However when we print to a Cannon Printer, it's OK. Can anyone throw light on this for us as it's proving to be a nightmare.
Cheers

Thanks v much Twilight - once I had posted the question I saw the same issues were posted by another.
I'll try the print as image under the advanced print tab and see how I get on with that. Hopefully Adobe will bring out a fix soon.
Thanks again.

Adobe reader for palm issue

I want to be able to read eBooks on my
Palm Tungsten T5 running Palm OS Garnet v 5.4.5
Palm Desktop 4.2.1 on Mac G5 OS 10.3.9
also using iSync 1.5
I've installed Adobe reader for Palm OS 3.05 on my Mac,
and it's installed fine on my Palm T5.
But, I've used the Adobe reader for Palm application on the Mac to add files to be transfered to the palm.
The application asks me to press the HotSync button, which I do. The Palm carrys out the HotSync,
but the pdf file is not transfered to the Palm.
What could be going wrong?
I've read on a previous thread
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1404460&#1404460
that the problem might be caused by iSync,
and that I need to transfer the AcroConduit from Disabled Conduits to Conduits.
But there is no AcroConduit in either folder on my Mac...
Is there another reader I could use to read eBooks on my Palm?
G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

This should work without a hitch, but only if the AcroConduit is present in your active Conduits folder, here:
Macintosh HD:Library:Application Support:Palm HotSync
If you cannot find it on your machine, send a message to the address listed in my public profile, and I will reply with a copy of the AcroConduit which you can drag into your active Conduits folder.
You could also go here to once again download, then install, the Adobe Reader for Palm OS package:

Adobe Reader/Acrobat forms issues!

This is a long one, and I know it's been posted before, but I just wanted to try again anyway.
I've just created a form using Adobe Designer, one that contains fields that someone can fill out when the form is open with Adobe Reader. The form I've created specifically is for a medical practice, and the first few fields are the doctor's last name, first name, and middle initial. Is there any way that, when I click Save As, a file name is automatically created in the Save As box that contains the last name, first name, and middle initial? I'd like the file name to look like this: LastName-FirstNameMiddleInitial.
Also, this is a form that the people who work at this practice will be using regularly. After the doctor's name fields are a few fields for the date, time in, and time out. Right now, we'd like the date to look like this: 07-16-2008. We'd also like the time in and time out to look like this: 12:00. I'd like it so that, if some data entry person at this medical clinic is tying in the date, and, say, they type in the date as 07/16/2008, it is automatically formatted to 07-16-2008 with the hyphens. Same with the time. Everyone types things in differently, and I'd love to know what I need to do so that it's automatically converted to the date/time design I listed above.
The form also contains an electronic signature field. The purpose of the signature field is mainly to expand on the services we offer in terms of going paperless. We want to help our clients STAY paperless, which means preventing the need to print off more paper. This form I'm working on is for a medical practice and is simply a doctor's form, with field for the doctor's name, date/time, a field for any info the doctor would like to input, and then the electronic signature field.
After the PDF is created, it is more than likely saved, which presents other problems, as I've now learned you can't save with Adobe Reader.
As far as looking up data on the form in the future is concerned, I'm pretty sure that's a big yes. I don't know that this particular PDF would be updated constantly, but I'm sure it will need to be retrieved at some point. How can the data be inputed so it can be retrieved from a database?
I've heard some talk about JavaScript in regards to this issue, as well. How exactly do I go about providing JavaScript? I know how to create a button in Designer, but I've had little experience with JavaScript. I've downloaded a program (PF Merge?) that might allow me to link the form I've created to a database, but I'm not sure how it works yet. Is that what you were referring to as far as our comments about an SQL database is concerned? Is there another way I can create a connection to a database, say, a slightly easier way?
Help!

Interesting. I did just do the Reduce File Size and extended the document and there were no dialog boxes when I saved my data. The file size got larger instead of smaller and I received the message at the end of the Reduce File Size cycle that said " Enforcement of compatability to an earlier version of Acrobat has increased the size of some images". There is an image in the file, not one that I added, but from the original document. No change to the image either. No biggie to me. As long as my users can fill out the form and come back to it later to make changes, I'm happy!
Thank you. I think that solved it!
