Auto Complete fucntion in Adobe Reader 9.x

Hi,
In Reader version 7.0, there is an option to have the auto-complete data cache to local disk option. In Reader 9.x (or even earlier version), this option has been taken off and when user exit out a PDF form from a browser, the entry lists is cleared. Is that desgin by default? In other words, the auto complete functions does not remember anything once you exit out from the form.
Any help is appreciated.

We are using 9.1.1.
We notice that this option is no loger available in this version. The below option will keep the form data available even if you exist out from the sessions.
Keep Forms Data Temporarily Available On Disk
Retains forms data in the Internet browser if you briefly go to
another web page and then click Back to return to the PDF form.

Auto-Complete bugs in Adobe Reader X / Acrobat X

When I open a PDF that has fillable forms, and auto-complete is enabled, it does a terrible job of managing it's suggestions and how it handles my desire to 'type through' the suggestions that it's offering.
To test this, you'll need a PDF with multiple fillable form fields. it seems to have the hardest time with numerical data. Spend a couple minutes entering in a lot of numerical data into the fields. Delete some of it, put in different numbers, and eventually you'll see what I'm talking about. I suggest that, because in some cases I'm able to reproduce it immediately, and in others it takes a few tries or a few different PDFs. If you have typed in an address, say '1234 main', then in a later field, type in a zip code of '12345', then in yet another field start typing 12345 then hit the spacebar, it autofills "12345main". Note how 12345main does not match anything I previously entered, but the auto-complete database thinks that it does. The 'ain' part of "12345main" stays highlighted, like that's what it's now suggesting. If you backspace back so that it shows "12345" again, and then hit space, it will auto-fill to '12345main' again. I can't simply 'Type through' thie suggestion, because it leaves the 'm' there.
What's odd, is that for the sake of this demonstration, you type in multiple items that begin with 1234, then enter '1234 ' (note the space) on another field, it actually won't suggest to you the items you previously entered that begin with 1234 . Example: in 3 fields, type in 1234 Main St, 1234 Downtown Rd., and then in the 3rd field start type 1234 followed by space. You'd think you'd be offered suggestions by Auto-complete that contain both 1234 Main St. and 1234 Downtown Rd, but you don't. If you type something like '12345' now, you'll be back to the problem i outlined above where it automatically selects an item from the list and grabs an unwanted letter from the first word after the space. Interestingly enough, if you keep typing '1234 Ma' for example, you still don't see the Auto-complete suggestions unless you start hitting the 'Backspace' key, at which point the proper suggestions are displayed.
For our users that send out a lot of correspondence to clients, this is a huge inconvenience. The only workaround is to completely disable the Auto-complete option under 'Forms'. If they do not, then they can end up with incorrect information going out to cilents, and some of them have sent printed forms to cilents containing characters that didn't make sense or numerical data that was not correct because it had picked up unwanted characters from auto-complete.
Additional information:
I'm able to duplicate this problem on multiple workstations.
OS: Windows 7 32-bit Enterprise SP1, Windows XP 32-bit Professional SP3
I'm able to duplicate the problem with Adobe Reader X and Adobe Acrobat X
The problem also occurs whether I select either 'Advanced' or 'Basic' for the Auto-Complete setting

Adobe pdf can not be completedly displaced by Adobe reader XI while it is inserted into a Excel2013(office 365) file

adobe pdf can not be completedly displaced by Adobe reader XI while it is inserted into a Excel2013(office 365) file

Sorry
should be “displaying”
Like when open a drawing pdf which is inserted into Excel(office 365) as an object, some lines, dimensions with remark can not be displayed and only few graph can be displayed.
But if the drawing is a separate PDF file, not inserted into Excel(office 365)as an object, the Adobe XI reader can always open it with all graphs, figures, texts, lines etc. smoothly.

How can I download complete Version of Adobe Reader for offline installation?

How do I sign, save, and close a completed from in Adobe Reader for iOS?

After completing a PDF form and emailing it from Adobe Reader for iOS, the recipient receives it as a form and can change it. How do I save the form in Adobe Reader for iOS before sending it as an email so that the recipient cannot update it further.
Thank you.

Thank you George. Are there any Apps you would recommend? I am looking for something where a PDF form can be completed, and perhaps annotated, and then flattened to email to be filed as a record.
Thanks.

I have created an editable form which cannot be saved as a completed copy by adobe reader users.

I have a created an editable form in indesign and acrobat, however when other users open up the form and fill it in they cannot save the completed copy. It comes up with that the user needs to click done signing, however there is no done signing button in adobe reader.

Unless they're using Reader XI then you have to first apply a special right in Acrobat that allows them to save the filled-in form in Reader.
The exact location of this command depends on your version of Acrobat.

Cannot complete form using Adobe Reader - Mac OS X 10.6.8

I have been using Adobe Reader to complete forms for my Bank for more than 9 months without any problems. I'm using Adobe Reader 10.1.1 for Mac. I recently upgraded my OS from 10.5.8 to 10.6.8 and this is the first time I've tried to use Adobe Reader since the upgrade. Today when I opened my form using Adobe Reader I cannot select and type in any of the text fields. Trying to click inside a text box simply seems to 'select' the entire page.
I checked online but could not find any compatibility issues. I'm hoping that I've overlooked something very simple that I should have done but have no idea what that could be.
I would be very grateful if someone could advise me what my problem might be.
Cheers
Tricia

Thanks for responding Ankit. No, I saved the form to a folder on my desktop and I open it using the Adobe Reader app. It has always worked without a problem before. I checked my husband's iMac (which has the same saved form on his Desktop). He is also running OS X 10.6.8. On his machine it opened without a hitch so I used his computer to fill in the form and print it out. Obviously, if it works on his computer and he's also using 10.6.8 it's not related to the upgrade.
I trashed my copy of Adobe Reader and have re-downloaded the app. Will install it and see whether it now works or if the problem persists. Will post back the results.'

I cannot complete installation of Adobe Reader to Read PDF

I cannot complete the Adobe Reader Free installation to print or read documents, I get to the final install and the program does not install. it is in my downloads but I cannot finish the final steps? Help Please Jimbo4070

I'm sure that folks will be able to assist with getting Adobe Reader installed. However, I just wanted to first make sure that you realize that your Mac can natively view and print PDF file using the Preview application. Just double-click any PDF and it should open just fine.
Assuming that you already realize that, but still want Adobe's Reader, please post what happens when you run the installer that you have downloaded from the Adobe Reader page (http://get.adobe.com/reader/). Do you get a specific error message?

I have updated adobe reader many times on my mac but still can't seem to use it when on the internet

help!

Hello r,
if your problems remains, you better should completely uninstall your Adobe Reader, restart your computer and the make a complete download of "Adobe Reader XI" >>> http://get.adobe.com/reader/ as a real new installation.

For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Read

Hi,
For the first time I am aware of a user has received a PDF that cannot be opened in Preview.
The pdf opens to a splash screen showing, "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later." There is a large button showing " Get Adobe Reader 9"
It is a 15Mb document but we cannot get beyond the splash screen in Preview so I have had to install Reader 9 for the user.
Turns out the document is a very basic slideshow. It seems this is a new (to me) format of PDF which forces users to install Reader.
Is there any way these image portfolios can be opened within Preview so I don't have to install Adobe Reader bloatware again?
Thanks,
b .

I doubt it, but perhaps others have better info...
You can ask Apple to expand Preview's capabilities here:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
Personally I have never found Preview to be a complete substitute for Adobe Reader and always have both on my machine to deal with pdfs, which have a large number of possible variations in terms of version, features, and encodings.

How to get rid of Adobe Reader on my OSX 10.9.5

I have a Mac mini, using OSX 10.9.5 and was forced to download Adobe Reader by Public Works, government of Canada, in order to print their document. For starters this is SO wrong.
When I completed the download, Adobe Reader wanted me to approve it replacing my Preview, which I didn't want to do, so I answered NO.
Now I can't get into the damnable Adobe Reader to get rid of it.
Can you please let me know how to get rid of ALL of Adobe Reader from the download?
Thanks in advance for your anticipated help.

Macintosh HD > Library > Internet Plug-ins
Look for these two files.
AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
AdobePDFViewer.plugin
Right click on those and select “Move To Trash”.
Restart the computer.

Wrong language after Adobe Reader Update with SCCM/SCUP

After installation of the Reader Update 10.1.4 the language of the Adobe Reader changed from german to english and can not be set back to german.
I did a complete uninstall of Adobe Reader and did a manual install with AdbeRdr1014_de_DE.exe, but the reader UI is stil in english, but displaying "Deutsch" in the options dialog.
deployed with System Center Configuration Manager 2012 with System Center Updates Publisher 2011 and Adobe SCUP Catalog.

You may want to use this tool to remove all traces of previous version(s) of Reader:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
Then, if you want to reinstall Reader, download the offline installer of the version you want from
http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

Signature issue in Adobe Reader XI (Unable to sign)

I have Adobe Reader XI installed both on my work laptop and my home PC.
I have the same PDF document on both my home computer and work laptop. (and yes, I have sent a new copy of the working document to my work computer to ensure it hasn't been modified or changed). It is the exact same document.
I open it at home and I have the ability to sign the PDF document and then use the save as option to save a copy of the signed document, and I have done so to submit it on weekly basis. (A time sheet).
I was able to do so at work maybe 2 or 3 times and then one time when opening Reader, a popup appeared for an update for Adobe Reader in my notification area and I installed the update from adobe.com. Ever since I installed that update, now when I open the same document at work, both the Place Initials and Place Signature options are both grayed out and I have not been able to figure out why. I have gone through all the preferences and settings and I can't find anything that would account for them being disabled.
I have not installed the update on my home system for fear of the same issue occurring. (I need to be able to submit that time sheet) and I would like to regain this ability on my work laptop. Can anyone provide any ideas on why I would suddenly lose the ability to sign a PDF document that shows under the document properties as available to be signed. (ie: Signing: Allowed).
I have tried uninstalled and re-installing Adobe Reader on the laptop. Same issue.
Any help or suggestions appreciated.

This is definitely a set up issue and User might have unintentionally assigned the port belonging to someother printer to this printer on his machine.
This is a setup issue and completely unrelated to Adobe reader. You may infact verify from some other non-Adobe Applications.
Thanks,
Atul Agarwal
