Any Acrobat Reader 'free' / low cost plug-ins available?

Dear All,
I posted a week or so ago regarding using VB and Acrobat Reader. What I want to do is open a pdf in VB, navigate through the pdf then save the current page no. in VB. A sort of index builder.
I realise from the excellent comments / help I received that since this is aimed at Acrobat Reader the only way forward is a plug-in. Thus I thought I would investigate this route. I've been stopped in my tracks rather quickly after looking at the plug-in licence rates.
So, my question - Do 'general functionality' low cost plug-ins exist for Adobe Reader to help me solve my project?
Regards,
Albert.

Dear Michael,
What I'm trying to achieve is this;
Allow the user to load any pdf file they wish, browse the pdf and when they find they relevant section (defined by pdf page no.) allow them to 'index' this by storing the documents path/name and current page no. via VB. Its a sort of index but controlled by a VB program.
It appears I can do it with a plug-in but the project is only very small and does not have a budget to buy the plug-in yearly licence. The other way around this is to do it via VB and use a VB compliant pdf library, I was hoping to just use the functionality in the Acrobat Reader but it appears to have little in the way of what I need. It can load/browse the pdf but seems to have no acessible function to extract the page no. the user is current looking at.
Any thoughts are much appreciated.
Regards,
Albert.

Looking for good "Lower Third" plug ins for Final Cut

Does anybody have any sources for good "Lower Third" plug-ins for Final Cut Studio?

Why deny yourself the joy and pleasure to create your own,
It is far easier and faster than it may sound. Use a combination of applications like Motion, FCP, AE, Photoshop etc.
Use the tools don't make them use you. Manuals, the forums and a few selected tutorials can help you if you feel not confident with any of the software mentioned, but if you are passioned enough there's nothing more rewarding that learning while nurturing your creativity.
Just thought you may want to consider that as an option,

Hey Joseph Curcio,
You might be viewing the PDFs in your browser only where Adobe Reader plug-in is disabled.
Please try opening the PDF file using Adobe Reader and then check.
Let me know in which browser are you trying to view the PDFs so that I can help you out enabling the required plug-ins.

Free (and worthwhile) plug-ins for CS3

I know that "worthwhile" is subjective. But of course "Free" is not
subjective.
I'd like to get some good links for Free PS CS3 plug-ins.
Thanks for any info offered.

I used to use virtual photographer from http://www.optikvervelabs.com/
It doesn't offer all the controls as other photo-effect plugins, but you get some good (or at least interesting) results and the price is right!
I don't know anything about it, but this site has links to a number of free plug-ins. http://www.thepluginsite.com/resources/freeps.htm I can't recommend however.

What are the best free Aperture 3 plug-ins?

Hi everyone!
I'm low on money and am looking for Aperture plug-ins that can really take editing jpegs to a whole new level. I've scoured the Net and have found only demo versions of software that are really expensive to purchase.
Can anyone suggest some free plug-ins that I can download or suggest some workaround methods found in Aperture 3?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for your time!

You have Aperture. Aperture comes with a very broad, robust set of image development tools. You can not composite within Aperture (you'll need a graphics program to add data, text, or graphics primitives to your images), but you do most everything else.
(You can add text with the excellent _free_ plug-in, Border FX.)
What is it you are trying to do? I cannot imagine a level of image development beyond which Aperture can take you (but if you want to do graphics editing, you'll need a graphics program).

Searching for a low-cost plug for doing better slow motion clips.

Where can I find a low-cost or free plug-in for doing better slow motion clips? I produce alot of sports videos and use FCPHD but am looking for better quality. I am not necessarily looking for time-remapping (it confuses the ** out of me). Just want to simply slow down clips and not be as choppy as FCP turns out.
Thanks for any help!

Free Extreme FX Plug ins

Big props to Michael Norris for creating this suite of plug ins.
There isn't anything like them, no fancy GUI, just the standard generic Logic plug in interface, But wow the things you can do. Most of these plug ins do their processing in the spectral domain. There are no presets.
They are universal Binary Audio Units
Try loading a simple instrument like the EVP-88 and load these FX.
Mess around with the parameters you will be richly rewarded.
The spectral drone maker is great.

Enjoy!

I downloaded this package and followed the install instructions, but the plugins do not show up in my inserts. I tried for both User and system file paths. Any ideas?
On a related note, there are certain folders that appear in my hard drive's logic application support, but not in my user path, such as Impulse Responses and Ultrabeat Samples. I downloaded a couple IRs from Logicprohelp.com which supposedly should have gone into my user/library/applicationsupport/logic, but like I said the folder wasn't there. Is there a way to fix this? Is it even a problem? I mean, I'd rather put IRs into a User directory than the main path, but it works from there, so maybe it isn't worth bothering. I guess I just want to know if something is wrong.

I downloaded Adobe Acrobat Reader, free download, and it won't let me do anything until I pay...why?

I downloaded Adobe Acrobat Reader and it continues to tell me I have to sign up and pay before I can do anything. Why?

By the way, maybe you're just confused about the product, since you're certainly confused about the name.
There is no product (not any more) called Adobe Acrobat Reader.
There is Adobe Reader - it is free.
There is Adobe Acrobat - this is not free (but the download offers a free trial)
You can have either or both.

New Aperture Plug-Ins Available

I saw an announcement about Human Software's Edit for Aperture 2.1 consisting of 12 modules. Any recommendations or experience with this product? Believe they already provide similar if not identical plug-ins for Photoshop. It sounds like a lot of capability.

Acrobat Reader (free version) on my mac shuts down unexpectedly when I try to fill & sign a document

Help! Can someone tell me why this is happening? I can't find any forum topics that cover this and have no clue why this is suddenly happening. It used to work great. I've tried removing & reinstalling Acrobat three times now. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Also try the adobe forums (and better to skip the crash report unless someone asks for it)

Most cost effective yet creative plug ins available?

Hello,
What are the most cost effective, creative/innovative and practical set of Final Cut and Motion plugin on the market? Core melt V2? Boris Continuum Complete? Genarts Sapphire? Other? Right now on Digital Juice, they are offering 50% off of Core Melt V2 at $199, but some say the video output quality with the plugins does not match up to some of the other plugins companies. What sort of advice could you offer about this topic?
Thank you,
Jordan

Buy all the most expensive plugins and software that you can get your hands on and your videos will be the best ever seen on YouTube. Invest as much time as you can in every application you purchase because you know what you want to produce and you know that the application that you've purchased can produce your desire and that is why you purchased it. Get the Apple Pro Training curriculum available at PeachPit Press.
Here's an example of using limited resources to produce desired results:
I worked in an office that only had an iMac and Final Cut Express where I edited stock videos using stock images. We're talking limited resources to the max. You would be surprised of the outstanding outcome of production using these limited resources. I needed an image editing app so I downloaded GIMP - saved the production department thousands of dollars in investing in similar applications. I so very much wish that I could of brought my nice, new, shiny MBP into the office to work on simply because I know what I want to produce and I know that I have the tools to accomplish those visions on my system. Unfortunately I am limited to the resources that were available at the office. Sometimes you just have to make the best with what you have. If you know what you want to create then it's easier to accomplish and selecting the right tool for the job is easier in this regard as well. How can you know what you want if you don't really know what you want? If all you know is that you want something less-amateur then all you will receive is a less-amateur response...

Probably not related to your question, but your plugins list shows outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

Suddenly I can no longer do the New York Times Acrostic. It says I need a plug-in, but when I try, it says there are no plug-ins available.

I used to be able to do this. Why did Firefox suddenly stop working for doing the NYT Acrostic?

Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
* Make sure that you are using the '''"Remember History"''' setting as described in this article -> [[Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track]]
* [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Template:clearCookiesCache Clear Cookies & Cache]

-> Start Firefox in -> [[Safe Mode]] to check if your add-ons/extensions are causing the problems.
* Also see this article -> [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
Check and tell if its working normally while using Firefox in [[Safe Mode]].
