Adobe Reader XI Web Based Review - No Login Box

Hi,
Has anyone experienced problems when opening a PDF for browser based review on Adobe Reader XI? It works perfectly fine on Reader X but as more users upgrade to Reader XI we are having to ask them to downgrade to use our web based review.
The problem: no login box is presented for the web credentials
Adobe detects the PDF is commenting enable and loads the anott.api but users can not use any of the annotation tools (greyed out). The send and receive button doesn't appear either. The only thing that does work correctly is that the user is triggered to add the host to privillage locations. Even after browser reboot (required after adding a host) there is no login triggered.
Affected: all system setups XP, Win7/8, Macs, Safari, Firefox, IE7/8/9/10
p.s. the problem is resolved after downgrading.
Many Thanks,
DC7

Browser-based reviews were deprecated a while ago and I'm pretty sure they got rid of it entirely with Acrobat/Reader 11. Shared reviews are meant to take its place, and yes I do realize it's not the same thing.

  • Embed Web based reviews into PDF

    We are using the ESM solution accelerator which initiates web-based reviews.  The comment files created by Acrobat are stored as RSS feeds.  At the end of a stage, I need to deliver a self-contained PDF with all the comments.  I'm looking for DDX or the process to do that.  I have the logic to get at all the supporting files (PDF, comment files) but, I can't seem to figure out how to "import" the RSS feeds as annotations into the source PDF.
    Thanks,
    Charles

    The comments are stored in xml in the review zone provider.
    You can use a DDX to import the comments in the PDF.

  • Web Based review and Approval

    Hello,
    I have found some resources in apple website regarding the FCSvr web based review and approval, it is working with Ruby Rails. One thing I am testing with this is incorporating the website view to iPhone, I used H.264 video format for iPhone but it still seems not playable to the device. Thus anyone have tested this one?
    Thanks,
    William

    I used Apple's own "Export for Web" in QuickTime Player to get started on the code to deliver for the iPhone. I haven't tried incorporating it into the Rails app from the developer's example, but it is a good place to start for working out the code to feed the iPhone with multiple bitrates. You can also look up Apple's MakeiPhoneRefMovie sample code.
    Alternatively you can use HTML5's <video> tag, for which Apple provides some direction.

  • Adobe Reader X locks address bar and search box in Firefox

    Hi all,
    I've been using Adobe Reader X in Firefox 3.16 and I've just noticed an interesting "feature".
    When reading a pdf from the web, Adobe Reader locks the address bar and search box so you cannot type a new address or search using the google search box. It just won't let you enter any text. Even on opening a new blank tab. Has anyone else come accross this and is there a fix? Cheers.

    Oh it was a problem with Adobe's Plug-in. As per [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/804580#answer-167069 MrKoffee's answer ], I noticed that I already had Adobe Reader X installed but nevertheless I went to adobe.com to download it again. When I installed it this time, it said "installing updated patch". Went back to Firefox to check and problem solved! :)
    Ps. did not need to disable any previous plug-in or even close Firefox.

  • Adobe Acrobat 6 and Adobe Reader 9 Web browser problem

    Good Day,
    I have a user that has Acrobat 6 and Reader 9 installed on the same computer. Acrobat 6 is used to edit (via open with -> Adobe Acrobat) while for normal reading, they use Adobe Reader 9 (since some files that were created in Acrobat 9 cannot be opened with Acrobat 6).
    From the desktop, everything works as it should. However, the problem is that when the user is trying to open a document on the web (from Internet Explorer 7) then instead of using Reader 9, it uses Acrobat 6 (and because is unable to open Acrobat 9 files) it gives an error saying that you need to have Adobe Reader 8 or 9 installed.
    So far I have tried the following:
    1) Reparing Reader 9
    2) Uninstalling Acrobat 6 running a repair on Reader 9 (which fixes the problem, until I reinstall Acrobat 6 again. I make sure I do not put a check mark on Read files on Internet Explorer)
    3) Went to Preferences on Acrobat 6 and unchecked Display PDF in browser.
    4) Checked on Manage Add-ins and tried disable any combination of Adobe PDF addin to make it work only with 9.
    Note: Reader version is the latest 9.4.1
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks
    Max

    Ok, so after I wrote the last post, I read through the related posts, and found the answer to
    what i was looking for.
    I guess it is unofficial, but I tested it today and works great:
    Registry that needs to be changed is:
    HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe
    Change the path (Acrobat 6) from "c:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat6\Acrobat.exe"
    to the path of Reader 9 which would be something like "c:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"
    That fixed the problem.
    Thanks

  • Adobe Reader 10 Web Application Problem

    Hello,
    I am currently troubleshooting issues with Adobe Reader 10, while opening PDF files in a web application using IE, Acro32.exe opens in the background and does not open the page. Any attempt to end the process fails, if the user closes IE and attempts to reopen IE or Adobe Reader 10 application they will either freeze or start in the background and not open a window. The computer must be restarted in order to open these applications again.
    Troubleshooting steps:
    Attempted to disable all of Adobe Reader 10's protected mode setting - no change
    Attempted to disable "Display PDF in browser" - no change
    Updated Reader to 10.1.2 - no change
    Forced the frozen Acro32.exe to restart using Sysinternals Procexp and receive the following error "Faulting application acrord32.exe, version 10.1.2.45, faulting module acrord32.exe, version 10.1.2.45, fault address 0x0005640a." The application fails to stop and this error is generated by the new process spawned.
    Once the client is rolled back to version 9 the issue is resolved.
    The web application does not open inline windows in IE; it will open a new Reader window (in normal functionality).
    Any suggestions?

    If you are in Windows, you can try using this tool to remove all traces of Reader:

  • Adobe Reader and accessing files on a unix box

    sorry if this is the wrong forum, but here goes.  I have adode
    reader on my endusers workstations (Windows based).  They need to be able to open pdf's that are on a unix
    server.  Can they use Adobe Reader 9.0 to do this?  If so are they any special settings or
    addins that need to be set.
    Thanks!

    There should be no problem opening PDF files from other platforms, as long as they can actually access the Unix filesystem.
    The easiest way to prove it is to try it.

  • Is there any way to find text highlighted in adobe reader and automatically copy it to comment boxes?

    If I use a pdf highlighted in Adobe Reader (metro) in another PDF reading program, one with functionality to retrieve and list various annotations on the PDF, it simply finds "sticky note" as Adobe Reader highlights the text but fails to copy and paste it into a 'highlight' comment box. I intend to use another program with this feature automatic, from this point forward, but is there any way I can retroactively and automatically do this same task to all the other work I've done with Adobe Reader? It is, as I understand, a standard function of PDF annotation.
    Of course, ideally, I would also like this to be automatic in the future, as the Adobe Reader Metro App is generally well-designed, touch-interface wise. But this lacking feature makes finding my comments a much greater hassle than it should be (as I can see where I highlighted, but not what without traveling directly to the page)
    Also on a side note, I apparently can't delete a sticky note from within the app, what the hell

    You cannot enforce something like that. You have some options when the field is set up to allow rich text formatting, but the user can always change it.

  • This just started today. I can't open my web based email with godaddy. I can see the item when it loads but it will not open to read, reply or anything else.

    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    1. Clear Firefox's Cache
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Offline Storage : "Clear Now"
    2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here
    While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • Adobe reader not operating correctly

    Since adobe reader updated to X, it has not worked correctly. It will run for about 10secs then will give "Not Responding" message and screen will turn translucent white (or gray). My operating system is vista, the reader version is 10.1.4. I've turned off auto updates to keep it from going to version 10.1.7. That version is totally non-operating on my system. Reading in web based documents is non-existent so I've turned that off too. Try going into the 3D tab to turn that off (read that might help) - forget it, not happening. At my wits end, trying to get this to work for days now...

  • Adobe Reader does not recognize file name (filename10.5.11.pdf) but does in Adobe Standard 9.  Why?

    I post documents to our Intranet site and found out recently that Adobe Reader does not recognize certain file names in PDF files.  For instance,  when trying to open a PDF file with the name
    filename10.5.11.pdf  in Adobe Reader, the web browser will not open the PDF and the display is blank.   When I'm using another computer with Adobe Standard 9, I do not have a problem opening the file.
    I would like to know if anyone else has had a similar issue and why Reader will not recognize the file name and Standard does.

    The version is Adobe Reader 10.1.0    I will request the latest version
    and let you know if that fixes the problem
    Actually I had changed the name of the file so our associates could access
    the file (changed the  .  to a hyphen)  It still made me wonder why Reader
    wouldn't open it at that time.
    Thanks again for you assistance and I will let you know if this resolves
    the  issue.

    Susan

    Hi Susan,
    Thanks for providing the information.
    Could you also let me know what is the exact version of Adobe Reader on
    your system. You can check the same y clicking on Help > About Adobe
    Reader X.
    In case its not 10.1.1, please try updating to the latest version and see
    if the problem persists.
    Also, does any other PDF with a different filename open in Internet
    Explorer correctly?
    Thanks
    Ankit

  • Confirmation That I Understand What I Can and Cannot Do With Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Acrobat Pro XI

    I am new to working with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and Adobe Reader XI.  Based on research I have done and questions answered in the Adobe Communities and Forum, I wanted to make sure I understand the limitations of these two products before I report back to my supervisor.  (We do not want to use XFA forms to obtain data in an xml file.)
    1.  Adobe Reader XI will allow a user to save a fillable PDF document to his/her local PC.  But it is only possible to save it as a PDF.
    2.  Adobe Reader XI will not allow a user to export the data in a fillable PDF into an xml file (unless you purchase the LiveCycle Reader Extensions license).
    3.  Adobe Reader XI will not allow a PDF file to be displayed in a .NET program unless the "Enable Protected Mode at startup" checkbox in Preferences/Security(Enhanced) has been unchecked.  (The previous version of Reader would allow this without disabling security.)
    4.  Adobe Acrobat Pro XI will allow a user to scan a form and create a fillable PDF.
    5.  Adobe Acrobat Pro XI will allow a user to save the fillable form as a PDF or XML.  However, it is the form that is being saved as an XML file.  Not the data.
    6.  Adobe Acrobat Pro XI will allow a user to export the data of a form into an xml file, an .fdf file, an .xfdf file, or a .txt file.
    7.  If a programmer writes a program in .NET to save the data of a PDF as an .xfdf file using IAC code, it will only work on a PC that has Adobe Acrobat (Standard or Pro).  If we need this executable to work on other PCs, we would need to purchase additional licenses of Adobe Acrobat - a license for every PC that needs to run the executable.
    8.  If a programmer writes  JavaScript code using trusted functions to get around security issues, that code will work on a PC that has Adobe Acrobat (Standard or Pro) but will not work on Adobe Reader XI.  Again, if we wanted our JavaScript to work, we would need to purchase Adobe Acrobat for every PC that would run the code.
    Please let me know if I have understood all of this correctly.  Thank you.

    Thank you for your comments to each of my statements, Irosenth.  That has been extremely helpful.
    I probably needed more of an explanation on statement #3.  I wrote a .NET program that used this line:   "Process.Start("AcroRd32", FilePath)" and when I ran the executable on a desktop PC that only had Adobe Reader XI on it, Reader would not open unless we unchecked the "Enable Protected Mode at startup" box.  I researched this and found several references to this being a problem in Readers since Reader 9.  I just wanted to make sure this was correct.  One article indicated that we could change the security setting within the registry using code and then change it back.
    Item #8 needed more information as well.  I had tried to use the "exportAsXFDF()" in a trusted function and it would never work in Reader.  It has an "F" in the availability column of the "Quick Bar" in the JavaScript API Reference which means it requires "forms rights".  I saw that; but it was not clear to me if that meant that a trusted function would work.  So, it looks like trusted functions will not get around security settings if forms rights are required.

  • Security Warning in Adobe Reader beim Öffnen eines pdf-Links

    Hallo zusammen
    Wir haben das folgende Problem: Wenn wir im Adobe Reader einen pdf-Link öffnen, erhalten wir jedesmal die Security Warnung, auch wenn wir dort angeben, dass die Werte für die nächsten male gespeichert werden sollen.
    Weiss jemand, wie man diese Meldung deaktivieren kann oder so einstellen lässt, dass sie tatsächlich nur einmal auftaucht?
    Der pdf-Link wird anstatt im Adobe Reader im Web-Browser geöffnet. Weiss hier evtl. jemand, wie man das ändern kann, dass sich dieser im Adobe Reader öffnet?
    Besten Dank

    Hat ja nichts mit der Frage zu tun!
    Klar, hat es. Das ist ein Forum, nicht irgendeine Fernleitung bei der wir uns mit dir telepathisch mit dir verbinden und erraten, was denn so auf deinem System passiert. Und genau da hakt's immer noch. Der Informationsgehalt ist zwar von 0% auf 2% gestiegen, aber wirklich was dazu sagen kann keiner. IE 8 ist steinalt und läßt mich Böses erahnen - uraltetes, verkorkstes Windows XP System oder sowas -  und naja, wen ndas sos ist, da braucht man eigentlich nicht weiter reden. Genau so ist "Reader ist die aktuellste Version" keine technisch verwertbare Aussage. Also nix für ungut, aber ich schone mal meinen Kreislauf und verabschiede mich mal. So kann keiner arbeiten...
