Adobe Reader X Display Preferences on Terminal

We use both Adobe Reader 9 an 10 on several Terminal Servers. We had performance problems until i found this link in Adobe KB:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/887/cpsid_88761.html
The solution works fine with Adobe Reader 9.
On  Terminal Servers where Adobe Reader X is installed there are different  Registry Keys. So is there a solition working for Reader X ?

Try one of the following:

  • Adobe Reader not displaying online bill properly?

    Good afternoon,
         Since June 2013, Adobe Reader began displaying one of my online utility bills with overprinted, reverse-oriented alphanumeric characters, over top of some portions of the bill, when using Firefox browser (v23).  Adobe Reader version is current (v11).  Using Win 7, 64-bit computer. Adobe Reader displays the bill correctly if I switch to the IE10 browser.  Other utility bills (which use Adobe Reader to display them) are displayed correctly when using Firefox or IE10.
    I've contacted the utility company's IT department, and although they say other customers are experiencing this same issue, there is no problem on their end.
    * I've included a screenshot below of what the bill looks like for your reference.
    My question:  What is causing this problem and how can I resolve it?
    Thank you for your time and any information.

    That appears to be opening in Firefox's PDFJS viewer, and NOT with the Reader Plugin. The toolbar is a dead giveaway. The PDFJS viewer is not a good viewer. Here's how to disable it and use the Reader plugin instead.
    In Firefox make sure you have at least two (2) tabs open - (Ctrl+T opens a new tab)
    In the address bar of one tab, type "about:config" - minus the quotes, of course
    You'll see a warning. Click "I'll be careful, I promise" and continue to the configuration page.
    There's a search bar at the top. Type "js" - again, minus the quotes.
    In the results you'll see pdfjsviewer.disabled with a vaule of false. Click it once, then right click it and choose Toggle to make the value "True".
    Close that tab.
    Click Tools>Options and go to the Applications tab
    Locate Adobe Acrobat Document (or Portable Document File (PDF)) in the list and click the drop-down to select "Use Adobe Reader (in Firefox)". (Mine doesn't have that choice because I also have Acrobat Pro installed, and it's my default app for PDFs)
    Click OK.
    Click Tools>Addons to see that the Acrobat plugin is installed
    Close and restart Firefox. PDFs should now open in a browser window with the Reader plugin.

  • Installing AcrobatPro after removing Adobe Reader Safari displayed pdf urls only as a black page anymore

    After installing Acrobat Pro it installs in Library/Internet Plugin-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin version 11.0.03. Allthough after selecting a PDF-link it leads to a displays it not in Acrobat Pro, it diplays it as a black page in Safari. When I have a look in Acrobat Pro into the preferences/internet/webbrowser-option/PDF to show inBrowser with: isnt checked! And there is still listed/Application/Adobe Reader.app instead of /Applikation/Adobe Acrobat Pro!!
    There is no way to select this Applikation. Having a look at Lbrary/Preferences/com.adobe.acrobat.pdfviewer.plist listed:
    AdobePDFDriver file://localhost/Volumes/Sicherung%20laptop/Applications/Adobe/Adobe%20Acrobat% 209%20Pro/Adobe%20Acrobat%20Pro.app/
    ReaderInstallPath file://localhost/Applications/Adobe%20Reader.app/
    WebBrowserUsePath file://localhost/Applications/Adobe%20Reader.app/
    Has anyone changed the ReaderInstallPath file or WebBrowserUsePath file to the path of Acrobat Pro  and as a result a good diplay of PDF-urls in Arcobat Pro or Safari??
    Thankx, I hope my english isn´t to bad for a german apple-user!

    Thanks for the screenshot, Pat. I think the light bulb went off for me. I was looking over the tips for configuring Firefox at the link:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/display-pdf-browser-acrobat-xi.html
    And I think what confused me the most was this screen shot for plug-ins for Firefox mentioned Acrobat.
    I had Acrobat installed myself, but most of our users do not use Acrobat, since it's not a free product. I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat, and the Adobe Acrobat plug-in was still there, so that forced me to realize that the plug-in that comes with Adobe Reader 11.0.3 is called "Adobe Acrobat".
    I went into Tools->Options->Applications and selected "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)", rather than "Use Adobe Reader (default)".
    This now allows me to not only view PDFs within a browser window in Firefox, but it also enables the save icon (which "Use Adobe Reader (default)" was not allowing me to do:
    It's a shame that the default setting is not for "in browser", because our customers may have to make a configuration change.
    There is no way to programmatically force a configuration change on a user's browser, is there?

  • Adobe reader not displaying the images

    I am trying to open pdf document includes with the images. Text is showing correctly but the images are grayed out. I can open same document with images in Nitro Pro but not with Adobe, that means no issue with the file damaging.

    Hi shahabk,
    Please make sure that Show Large Images in selected in the Page Display preferences. Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Reader > Preferences (Mac OS), and then click the Page Display category. The Show Large Images option is about half-way down the dialog box.
    Best,

  • How do I run Adobe Reader to display pdf files in Windows 8?

    I'm confused! Where is the executable for adobe pdf reader in windows 8? I want to launch it from powershell to display a pdf file. It used to be trivial in windows 7 but now the adobe pdf reader is an app and I cannot find the executable using the task
    manager.
    Can someone help me launch it from cmd.exe or powershell_ise to display a pdf file?
    I just downloaded and installed the Adobe PDF reader and I cannot execute the reader c:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe. I get no error messages and no GUI display. What is going on?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    As far as I know, that Windows 8 has a reader by default, it seems like it is Microsoft Reader. It could used to read PDF file. And I have not ever use powershell to manage to use it.
    The  PDF reader is a Modern UI app; we cannot run Modern UI apps on the desktop. So I don't think powershell could manage it.

  • 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

    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.

  • Bug in Adobe Reader when displaying lines?

    Hi there!
    I'm creating a complex document with Apache FOP, using tables with visible and hidden borders. Although, all lines have the same attributes, Adobe Reader renders them in different thikness. In the FOP forum, there has been a lot of discussions about this issue. Conclusion is, that it is not supposed to be a FOP bug. Some other readers render the created documents well. You might want to read about it here: http://apache-fop.1065347.n5.nabble.com/Cell-border-rendering-error-thicker-with-number-co lumn-spanned-tp17999p37229.html. Displaying on screen, it is possible to avoid this by not using "Enhance thin lines". However, printed documents allways show these lines in different thikness. To avoid this being a FOP bug, there is a simple example document, producing the bug with Adobe Reader. It can be found here: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/xmlgraphics-fop-users/201211.mbox/raw/%3c5095C97A .[email protected]%3e/2. The document is hand crafted. To see the issue, turn on "Enhance thin lines" and try different zoom values. If this document contains incorrect contents, I'll be happy, if you let me know.
    Regards.

    You will not get a response from the bug report but they DO read the reports and use them to make future updates.
    I notice a lot of the other issues reported here have not been responded to either.
    Is that the normal process?
    I haven't noticed that at all. In fact, most posts here get results as long as the poster gives enough details. Keep in mind that the answers are coming from fellow users and it is not an official avenue to contact Adobe personnel.

    Hi Michaeld71937612,
    Try terminating the 'process Tree' using Task Manager then restart Adobe Reader, and check the CPU Usage again.
    Please make sure that there are no other instances of Acrobat running on your system once you end Task.
    I would also recommend you to check for malicious activity on your system using a reputed Antivirus/Security software.

  • Adobe Reader X - Clicking Preference Crashes Adobe Reader

    I have a system with Windows 7 x64 and Adobe Reader X. Everytime I hit Edit>Preference, Adobe Reader gives and error saying it has stopped working. Does anyone know the fix for this?

    I did try to reinistall it, without the cleanup tool, and that didn't work. I installed the OS on a different machine but same model hardware and it still crashes when I click on preference. I then installed Reader on a different set of hardware with the same OS and it works fine. I wouldn't think Reader would look at the hardware or does it?

  • Adobe Reader High CPU Usage on terminal server

    Hello,
    I have a question?
    Yesterday one of our customers ran into a problem where the Adobe Reader process (Acrord32.exe) was using the maximum available CPU resources constantly on a terminal server. Even when Adobe reader program was closed, therefore the process remains running in the background continuing to use all of the available CPU resources. Customer is using Windows server 2012 R2 with Adobe Reader please help?

    Hi Michaeld71937612,

  • Plug-in for Adobe Reader to display embedded WMV not available

    My problem is that I have a PDF with an embedded WMV.  When I attempt to open it, I get the following message:
        The PDF file contains media that requires an additional player.  Please click 'Get Media Player' to
        download the correct media player.  To play the media, you will need to close and restart the application
        once the player installation is complete.
    When I go to download the correct media player, the Adobe web site, (http://www.adobe.com/special/acrobat/nomediaplayer.html), informs me that the third-party media player is not available for my system.  It does, however, suggest visiting the Apple web site for QuickTime.
    As a matter of course, I decided to install Flip4Mac which is an add-on to QuickTime that allows it to play Windows Media files.  While this add-on does function according to specification, I still get the same error when I attempt to open the same PDF file.
    Note that I am running Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard).

    Putting it bluntly, you shouldn't be embedding WMVs in PDF files anymore - it's called "legacy media" and it's been discontinued for security reasons. You can't author it in Acrobat X, and playback is disabled in all current versions of Acrobat and Adobe Reader unless the user changes their security options. Authors should be using Rich Media annotations, which embed FLV or H.264 video and play cross-platform via an internal copy of Flash Player.
    The weblink fired by Reader when it encounters legacy media for which the OS has no registered handler understands that you're on a Mac - and as there are no primary players for WMV files on OS X, that's what it tells you. Adobe does not link to third-party add-ons for other software, and even with those installed it will continue to complain unless the add-on has changed the file type associations, so that WMV files automatically open in Quicktime.

  • Adobe Reader X - Display PDF in Browser Option is Greyed out

    Looking for a registry fix to unlock the Display PDF in Browser option.  Not sure how it is greyed out to begin with.  My MST file was not set to Lock anything.  Please help.  I cannot find anything anywhere of use to "ungrey" this option. 
    It seems to happen when Acrobat is installed. 
    How can I fix and how can I prevent in future releases??

  • Slow Printing with Adobe Reader 8.1.2 on Terminal Service

    When I want to print something on a Terminal Server without admin rights its very slow, when I print with admin rights its fast. Can someone told me where is the problem with the rights?
    Thanks

    It could be that the Printer Setting has been set to ensure that the Duplex Printing would no longer be applied and its overriding the Printer Dialog settings.
    You could check the Printer setting to ensure that duplex printing is enabled.

  • Adobe Reader 11.0.03 - Edit preferences - Internet settings

    Where in Adobe Reader under "Edit - Preferences - Internet settings" do I find "Display PDF in browser"?

    Hi Pat
    Regrettably your reply did not help at all.
    I had previously seen the link you gave me. However  it gave no assistance as it provided no link to any of the offered solutions or advice of how to use the advice
    Your reply  would have been helpful, if you had told me, what it took me another +/- 30 mins to find out, that the link was in V10.
    You can now help me by advising why was it removed and what alternate feature V11 uses to achieve the same purpose?
