Adobe Reader language pack mapping

Hi all, I use Reader 10.1.4 in WIN7. The PDF has many text labels in font type Myriad Pro.
I have a PDF which allows users to select language of current page, English, simplified Chinese, traditional Chinese, Korean and Japanese. The text labels of different languages are dynamically generated using scripts in variables.
Initially, when I change the page from English to simplified Chinese, it should ask me to download simplified Chinese font pack. However, PDF pops up a warning and asks me to download Japanese language support pack. Like this:
By clicking on OK, it opens the Jp pack download page (http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4881) in the web browser.
After downloading this pack (it installs 2 files, KozGoPr6N-Medium and KozMinPr6N-Regular in Reader DIR/Resource/CIDFont), I open the PDF and select Chinese again. This time it asks for simplified Chinese language support pack and take me to this page (http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4883).
Same thing happens when I try to select traditional Chinese. PDF directs me to download JP pack first, and second time direct to CN pack download page.
If the page is switched to Korean, PDF directs me to the correct Korean pack page.
I wonder why it goes to download JP, when I only need CN language pack. What is the mapping between the language of my page and the language pack downloaded from Adobe? Is there any way to correct this kind of mis-mapping?
This is a critical issue, and the client is adamant on it. So I’ll be grateful if you could look into it. If this is indeed an Adobe reader issue, then how can I contact Adobe technical support group?

I asked before but I don't think you answered, how the languages are made on the page. I'm going to assume the answer is "they are form fields".
If so, I believe the problem is Han Unification. This, a deliberate part of the design of Unicode, makes it impossible to tell to which language some characters belong. If the FIRST character in a field is a unified han character, Acrobat must guess the language. I think it is especially likely to guess wrong if. Perhaps you could try adding some non-unified character first.

Adobe Reader Language Support Pack

The default Adobe Reader apps currently shows English character set. Is there a way to apply language pack so that I can Chinese PDF files?

Adobe reader comes packed with two other programs

I've downloaded Adobe Reader and its working just fine. The problem is, it seems to have downloaded two other programs with it: Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Air. Do I want these programs? What are they? Also, when I try to open Adobe Acrobat I continually have a box that comes up that says "Unfortunately Acrobat could not connect to the server to complete your action." So, do I want Acrobat? and if so, how do I make it connect to the server to register itself?

Read about AIR at
http://www.adobe.com/products/air/everyone/
and acrobat.com (not to be confused with Adobe Acrobat, which is a
program for making and editing PDF files) at
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat.com/Acrobat/
You probably don't need them, but I shouldn't worry about them being
there. I've found acrobat.com useful for file sharing.

Adobe reader 9.4.0 requires Internet Explorer 6.0 or greater

Hello,
I have a user who has reported Adobe Reader was not installed on his PC, which we complete via GPO as default for all our computers, and has never been an issue (WinXP and Win7 (x64) ). When attempting to install the reader manually, I received "Adobe reader 9.4.0 requires Internet Explorer 6.0 or greater" This is a Win7 box. It comes with IE 8! Can anyone point me to the registry path the installer is looking for to determine the version of IE? I've checked HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer and verified both "Version" and "W2kVersion" read 8.0.7601.17514.
I realize Reader X is available. We're not ready to deploy it yet. So any suggestion other than simply "install Reader X" is greatly appreciated!
Thanks for your time.

I know I'm considerably late to the reply here, but I had the same issue with a Reader X install done via GPO. This may be relavent info for the future, and may work for Reader 9 as well
I read that someone had tried running the command line uninstall for an older version of reader, as it seemed to have not been removed completely. I threw together a batch file to attempt to remove all the reader installs we had available along with the font packs. Some of the font packs won't remove unless reader is present, so it re-installs the latest reader, removes the font packs again (to get whatever it missed) then reloads the font packs.
So far this approach is 1 for 1. Hopefully it helps out if you still need it.

Adobe Reader 9.2 printing gibberish

I've just updated adobe reader, service pack and IE at the same time. The versions are adobe reader 9.2, xp sp3, and IE 7. I have a HP laserjet 3380. After I did the updates, I get gibberish after printing PDF. It sometimes happen, not always and it usually starts printing gibberish after page 5 or later. I've tried using different drivers (pcl 5 and 6), as well as uninstall/reinstall adobe 9.2. I dont want to print as image. Any suggestions?

1602 errors when trying to install the Extended Asian Language font pack for Adobe Reader XI

My company is trying to deploy Adobe Reader XI 11.0.10 with the Extended Asian Language font pack via SCCM 2007, and some computers are failing the install of the Extended Asian Language font pack with 1602 error. Reader is installing successfully, but the font pack log file will have this entry:
ADelRCP logging: : In Process : MsiExec.exe
ADelRCP logging: : Setup terminated because critical files are in use or applications that interfere with files installed by setup are running. Review the preceding entries in the log file and close the applications listed before retrying setup.
CustomAction ApplicationInUse returned actual error code 1602 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
Action ended 9:08:42: ApplicationInUse. Return value 2.
Action ended 9:08:42: INSTALL. Return value 2.
Our automation to install this is killing Reader and Acrobat before running the Reader 11.0.10 install, so I do not know what would be in use here.
I appreicate any suggestions you have. I can provide the entire log file, upon request. Thanks.

Moving this discussion to the Adobe Reader forum.

Adobe Reader X wants japanese Language Pack

Hi,
i'm having a problem with Adobe Reader X.
At our company we use BIRT (Business Intelligence Reporting Tool) to edit Templates for PDFs, which then are created via Projektron BCS (that's our accounting software), for example for offers or reports for a customer.
The specific issue here is Adobe Reader X demanding to install the japanese language pack when opening a pdf generated by bcs though there are no japanese letters anywhere in the template or its contents.
The problem doesn't come up when using Adobe Reader 9.x
I already checked the locale of the template (which is german), the font used is "serif" ...
I'm not sure if this is rather an issue concerning Adobe Reader X than an issue with BCS.
I hope someone can point me to the right direction.
Greetings from Germany

Hi,
Please share more details about your system like on which OS are you working. Please share a sample pdf file which asks you to install Japanese fonts also.
Thanks,
Karan

Adobe Reader 9 - Where are the Extended Language Font Packs?

To all:
I have been unable to locate where Adobe is hiding the font pack for Reader 9! I cannot find it anywhere on their site. I can find it for the 8.x Reader, but nowhere for 9.
I have found the MUI Reader (which is over 285MB in size) which does contain all of the font packs, plus the foreign language interface versions of Reader, but I only want the font packs to add to the Standard English Reader.
If anyone knows what happened...or what Adobe decided to do differently with font packs with Reader 9, please share any information you may have.
Thanks for listening and for the feed-back.
Mark

I think I've found them:
ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.0/misc/
I'll give this a try and see if it gives me what I want so that I can view Japanese fonts in 9.3.

Adobe Photoshop CS4 English Language Pack Error: Error 2.

I've read another post indicating this error upon install of CS4. Many of the factors described do not fit my scenario, so I thought I'd post this again.
Basically, I have Win XP SP3 all updates applied. Minimal services running. No software firewall. Everything installed just fine from Production Premium CS4 EXCEPT Photoshop. Error shown in subject line of this post is issued by installer.
Photoshop won't boot stating it is missing files from it's folder.
Wazzup?

OK. This error drove me nuts and I have seen a thousand different "solutions" posted on various forums (none of which actually worked), but I think I found the magic bullet for this problem. This appears to be a result of corrupted/missing language pack files. Here's what I did to resolve it once and for all!
You should already have a folder somewhere with the contents/Setup.exe for CS4 Design Premium
Download the trial version of Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended
Unpack the contents to a folder/directory somewhere on your PC
You will NOT be installing the Photoshop CS4 Extended application - only copying some files.
Copy the "extensions" folder from Photoshop CS4 Extended, that you just downloaded to your CS4 Design Premium folder (there should be an "extensions" folder already there as well)
Select yes if prompted to replace existing files/folders.
Double-click the Setup.exe in your CS4 Design Premium directory and re-start the installation of Photoshop from there.
Problem should be solved.

We need to install adobe reader x English version or French version depend on language of user's operation system.
I know i can change langue to force it same as operation system after installation, it can be found Edit, pererfernce,language.

I installed adobe reader x silently using command: msiexec /qb- /i "adberder1000_fr_FR.msi" ,
Is it possible to add abswitch /g langueID in the command line to force language same as OS language? How can I retrieve default OS langugeID?
thanks

I have multiple problems with Windows 7 Professional x64 & the Adobe products installed on my machine (English).
I have a dual processor Intel Duo Core2 - Dell Lattitude E6400XFR, running Windows 7 Professional x64 Service Pack 1(English).
Adobe, & Adobe Reader are installed properly & function okay for the most part, save for the very newest & fanciest of documents. Mainly, the issue I have is that Adobe/Reader are constantly attempting to update, & are able to download a version recognized as newer than the current version installed, then will not install completely or at all. Once that occurs it will then immediately demand to be updated by this newer version. It's a crappy loop that I have become familiar with & is lame.
Either Adobe & Adobe Reader are problematic with Windows 7 Professional x64 SP1 ENGLISH, or this dual processor Intel motherboard is the problem. The latter doesn't seem likely however, I have identified multiple problems with drivers & whatnot that do not function well or properly solely due to the motherboard. My Nvidia On Board GPU & the drivers & software would be the prime & most annoying example of something that hates my motherboard.
I hope this isn't "Hijacking" your post, I am having a problem that sounds similar to yours, the international/localization issue(s) notwithstanding.

Latest Update of Adobe Reader in Foreign Language

I have found this strange, but after updating to the latest version of Adobe Reader Plugin, under Safari it is showing the "loading" dialogue in Chinese characters instead of English. This started to happen after I ran the last update. I don't speak Chinese and don't use the language pack so I am puzzled on how this change came about.
I am reporting this because I wanted to make sure 1) it was not a hack that spoofed the update and 2) if it is OK, it's a bug in the installer. Why did it happen and how do I fix it?

I am running:
OSX 10.8.5
