    I have a user on Adobe Reader X.  whenever they open a .pdf file, the form fields do not auto-fill until you click in the box.  Is there a setting that can be changed to make the form open properly?

    Sounds like the form fields were filled in on a Mac using Mac Preview. This cannot be fixed in Reader only Acrobat. Ask the person who filled in the form to redo their work in Adobe Reader.

  • Opening Adobe Reader PDF

    Four months ago I wrote that when I tried to open Adobe Reader PDF for any reason, Photoshop Elements 4 took over and Adobe Reader was opened in PE4.
    I was given advice toopen and check in a word document my file association and to "tell" the system to open in Adobe PDF format.  I did that but whenever I open Adobe PDF for any reason (the last occasion was to download my travel insurance from Insure and Go), PE4 opens and Adobe PDF has to be printed from inside that programme.  Nothing has changed.
    I want Adobe Reader PDF to open in its own format, and I want to stop Adobe Reader PDF being opened inside the PE4 programme.  How do I do it?
    I do not want to get rid of PE4 as I use it extensively for photography.  But I want it to stay with photos and stop opening for documents like my travel insurance.  Thank you.  Rod Colyer

  • All my Adobe Reader (PDF) files are opening only in the secondary monitor by default, as I am workin

    I am using Adobe 8 Professional and working on Windows XP. I have been facing an issue lately with opening files in a dual-monitor environment. All my Adobe Reader (PDF) files are opening only in the secondary monitor by default. There are times when I work only in one monitor and when I open a PDF file and want to have a look at it, I have to connect another monitor to view that file, since this file is open in the secondary monitor. It is very disappointing with such instances happening with Adobe (a leading organization). Can you please help so that the Adobe Reader files open in the primary monitor by default?

    On a Windows system disable the preview of Windows Explorer.

  • Problem printing from Adobe Reader .pdf with Brother printer from a Mac

    I have a macbook pro with Intel Core i7 and OS X Yosemite and Brother MFC-7360N printer connected by wifi. My problem is that I can print everything from all programs except from the Adobe Reader .pdf that do I print from my Preview files .. The error I get is "Error filter". Does anyone know where can originate the error and how to fix it?

    With another O.S. in another computer is OK.
    Thank you

  • I created a brochure in pages and exported it to a pdf format. The pdf looks and opens perfectly using preview but when opened in adobe reader (which my printer uses), fonts look odd, transparencies don't display...etc. Tells me error exists on page?

    I created a brochure in pages and exported it to a pdf format. The pdf looks and opens perfectly using preview but when opened in adobe reader (which my printer uses), fonts look odd, transparencies don't display...etc. Tells me error exists on page?

    Does this essentially mean there is no way to fix this problem on my end? It's a pity because the design and branding of my brochure will suffer if I remove transparencies and use different fonts. It also concerns me moving forward because it means the quality of print on my pieces will be significantly lower because most commercial printers use Adobe products.

  • I can't affix my valid digital signature to adobe reader pdf document?

    I can't affix my valid digital signature to adobe reader pdf document. When the signature field is clicked, it is not showing my digital ID so that I can sign with it. Why it is not displaying my valid digital ID?

    What is your operating system?  What is your Reader version?  What means "can not"?
    Can you post a screenshot of such a message "to buy Adobe XI"?

  • How do I modify an Adobe Reader pdf file?

    Hello,
    I am trying to fill out a work application that is an Adobe Reader pdf file.

    Please help,
    Thanks!

    > A university course expected an assignment to be completed on a pdf template downloadable from online site, a specific word count was given or penalties apply
    Ok.
    > however when edited with student content, the word count did not change.
    What do you mean "edited". Edited how - just typing in form fields?
    Where do you get the word count?
    > Is this hypotheses correct? the student should purchase the pdf writer in order to complete fields correctly.
    Not possible to say at this stage. (The "writer" product by the way is
    called Acrobat Standard or Acrobat Professional, if it turns out you
    do need it..
    >I cannot find references anywhere about word count in the knowledge base or FAQ.
    From my point of view, this is because it isn't something Reader does.
    But clearly it does something - so... what does it do?

  • Pulling Images From Adobe Reader PDF File

    I was sent some artwork in a Adobe Reader PDF. How do I pull the images out of it to use? Thanks.

    Don't know that you can with Reader. You should ask in the Reader forum that is linked at the top of this forum. In Acrobat it is easy, but Reader does not have the editing capabilities of Acrobat and it is probably not directly possible.

    I cannot log into Adobe Reader through my iphone using the Adobe ID and password which work on the website.

    Hi Will,
    That's great that you could sign in now.
    I think issue you faced in signing was because email verification was not done before. And when you signed from web client, you might have received a note asking you to do verification. It solved the logging issues you were facing on iPhone as well.

  • Preview.app crashes whenever I use a key command

    I've had this very annoying problem for quite a while now, and so far I haven't been able to find a solution for it.
    Whenever I use a key command in Preview.app it either freezes or crashes or both. I can use all the menu options, just not trigger them with a key command.
    So I can use the app just fine, just so long as I remember to not use the key commands, but it's just that having been using apple key commands since 1986 it's really hard to not acidentally hit any of them while in Preview.app, and every so often I accidentally do … sometimes losing unsaved changes in the process.
    I'm not sure when the problem first occurred, but it dates back to Lion at least and it's still there in Mountain Lion as well.
    I thought it might be some extension or some background app clashing with Preview.app, but when starting up holding shift the problem remains.
    And the problem is local to my user account only, and Preview.app works just fine in other user accounts.
    So I figured I'd just trash the Preview.app prefs and all would be well, but no go. Unless there are some more hidden prefs of some kind that I don't know about.
    So, something local to my user account only screws up key commands in Preview.app only, and I can't figure out what or how to solve it.
    I may end up having to migrate the contents and settings of my account to a new user account to solve this, but that soundsa lot like surrendering doesn't it? ;-)
    And I thought I'd give it one more try to figure this out before I put myself through a migration process. ;-)
    Ideas anyone?

    Ha! Fixed it!
    Kept reading all "Preview+plist" threads and found this one: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17195650#17195650
    And sure enough, trashing ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Preview/ reset the preferences for Preview.app and now all key commands work without crashing.
    But if erasing that folder, and more importantly the plist in it, did reset the preferences, that would suggest the preferences were being saved there. So I now changed the prefs and quit the app, and then trashed the containers folder again, and restarted the app. But strangely the prefs remained. So I thought, well if the prefs were being stored there, maybe erasing that plist made Preview reinstate the regular plist in the regular Preferences folder? But no go, as there's still no regular Preview plist in the regular Preferences folder.
    So now, there's no regular plist, and erasing the Containers folder no longer resets the prefs, but changes to prefs are still being saved somewhere … so where the **** are they being saved now? It's like they just keep burrowing down further into the ground with every attempt to erase them. What the **** is going on? ;-)
    Anyways, the initial problem is solved, so … maybe I should just let the mystery remain? ;-)

    When you say that you have the same problem, do you mean that you are:
    1. Not able to download Adobe Reader;
    2. cannot view a PDF file;
    3. or what?
    Please be a little more descriptive of your particular problem or, better yet, start your own thread and clearly indicate which problem(s) you're having and what you have done, thus far, to correct the problem(s).
