Bookmarks in Reader for Android

Why do bookmarks not work in Reader for Android. I have a document that I have added bookmarks to using Acrobat X Pro but when I view the document on my Android device the bookmarks do not appear.

You should see a bookmark icon in the toolbar that you can tap to open the bookmarks pane. Do you not see that? If not, could you forward the sample docment to [email protected] with an explanation of the problem, so we can related it back to this forum posting?

Adobe Reader for Android: Bookmarks

I find Adobe Reader for Android excellent even for image or picture files in that it allows searching for words and highlighting etc.
However it lacks one important feature - bookmarks.
Please add bookmarks as soon as possible to make an excellent product even better.

Actually, the Adobe Reader for Android does support bookmarks to the same degree as Adobe Reader on both Windows and Macintosh. Any bookmarks that were created by the PDF file's authoring application or added to the document with Adobe Acrobat may be readily accessed. The Adobe Reader applications (Windows, MacOS, iOS, and Android) do not provide any mechanism for adding, modifying, or deleting bookmarks.

Feature Requests - Adobe Reader for Android

Adobe Reader for Android is a good start, it renders well (and renders 2 pages at a time), and the UI is nice, but there are some missing features.
Please can we have the following features added in the next update;
# Bookmark support, including the ability to create and modify bookmarks.
# A method of jumping to a specific page in the document
# Ability to share the file by email
# Ability to copy text
# A method of searching text in the document
Thanks for the app, it looks promising, but needs the above features added to be a better app than Repligo Reader.

My company is anxiously looking to find out if you will be supporti
ng XFDF, FDF features so we may display and submit forms on Android Tablets!
The marriage of Adobe Forms, the Web and Tablets blows the doors open to numerous new applications and markets and squarely puts Adobe as the focal point of such solutions.
Our software has been PC-based and the 75% of our solution is usable for the tablet market. The other 25% of our functionality relies on displaying and completing Adobe forms over the web. Our customers are BEGGING for it.
So can you PLEASE PROOVIDE INSIGHT AS TO IF/WHEN you would be including full form functionality in the READER product for Android?
Many of us ANXIOUSLY await your resonse! Thanks.

Poor reflow on Reader for Android

On opening a new PDF in Adobe Reader on my Samsung Galaxy SII and setting the display to reflow some of the paragraphs in the document are broken up so they dispay as if there are lots of little paragraphs instead of one paragraph. When I open the same document in Adobe Reader on my laptops and set the document to relfow and colapse the window down smaller everything looks fine.
Reflowing a PDF on smaller devices is critical to my selling the idea of PDF for mobile. If they don't display properly on smaller devices then there is not much use in my selling the idea that PDF can easily be read on many devices without haveing to zoom in and scroll horizontally.
It seems like something happened with the reflow and now it is busted. I have screen captures to illustrate the problem if only I could upload them. If Adobe Reader for Android are listening (reading) please contact me for more info so we can get the problem fixed.
And by the way why is there no reflow option in Reader for iOS?

Hi Gaurav,
Thanks for the fast response. I know you're probably not deciding feature priorities, so please don't be offended by my following comments.
I have to say I'm somewhat confused by the lack of such an obvious feature. If I understand this correctly...
Let's say I'm reading "War and Peace" on my Android tablet using Reader X. It's a very long book...so I'm likely not to be able to read it in one sitting.
I want to keep my place in War and Peace and check out the latest copy of Playboy.
So you're telling me that I have to write down the page number on a piece of paper...transfer the file to a PC with a "proper" (ie. functional) copy of Reader...navigate to the page I was on in War and Peace...create a bookmark...transfer the file back to the Android tablet and next time I open it I can go right to where I was at!
I'm sure I'm not the first person to tell you this - but that's crazy :-) Without the ability to create bookmarks on the tablet the bookmark feature is useless.
This must be the easiest ever feature to implement. I'm quite astonished...really.
Again, thanks for the fast response...I know sometimes it must be frustrating to have to give "official company" answers like that :-)
Cheers,
Geoff

How do i bookmarks in FF for android?

How? And if It's not possible then why not?

Click on the menu button (usually) top right and then on the bookmark star. See

How do I move a file from "Recents" in Adobe Reader for Android to a folder in "Documents"?

How do I move a file from "Recents" in Adobe Reader for Android to a folder in "Documents"?
Files from Google Drive are appearing in "Recents" where I cannot organize them hierarchically.
I cannot find a user manual for Adobe Reader for Android with this level of detail.

Hi John,
Files opened via Google Drive are not listed in ‘Documents' section of Adobe Reader, because they are read only files. If you really want to save these files to ’Documents' then please follow below steps -
Open the file from Google drive in Adobe Reader.
Tap on the Comment icon placed at top toolbar(Second icon from the beginning)
You would encounter a 'Read-Only document’ dialog, tap on Save button.
Once you performed above steps , your file will be saved in /Download/Adobe Reader/ folder.
Hope this will solve your problem.
Thanks,
Adobe Reader Team

Launch Adobe Reader for Android via Intent in Read-Only mode

One issue I've bumped into recently with respect to launching Adobe Reader for Android via an ACTION_VIEW intent is that fillable forms can apparently always be filled and saved, thus modifying the original file. That may be wonderful in many applications, but I have a situation where I would really not like users to be able to make any changes to the document (i.e. filling in fields and saving) at the current time.
I am assuming that there is currently no Intent option to open a PDF in Adobe Reader in true read-only mode (preferably such that fillable fields wouldn't even be fillable).
For now, I'll probably just have to point to a copy of the file, but it would be more convenient to have a handful of properly-documented options for launching read-only via an Intent.

GoodReader ($4.99), ezPDF Reader ($2.99) and PDF Expert ($9.99) are well rated and support many more features.

How can I copy or print all text highlights in Adobe Reader for Android?

I read many tech books as pdfs. And highlight the parts I want to note.
Since I am now reading them on an Android Tablet using Adobe Reader for Android, I need to find a way to move my highlights to a separate doc when I am done reading. I don't see instructions for this anywhere.
How can I copy all text highlights at once from a document?
And / or
How can I print all text highlights from a document?
Thanks,

Thanks.
Kindle Reader will let me do that with Kindle books and docs that I buy from
Amazon, but not with personal docs (such as pdfs) that I import, unfortunately.
Is a VERY useful feature!

Adobe Reader for Android - Arabic support issue

Dear Support,
I am trying to reach the developer for long time but the email provided is a mailing list which no one else has the right to post to it except their team.
There is a big problem with Arabic words searching in an Arabic PDF file with adobe Reader for android. To search for a word, I have to write the words backward, like instead of "Adobe" I have to write "ebodA" but in Arabic language. I know that your app developers are Indians, but please let an Arabic person show you how he can't search for a word in an Arabic PDF file. Please fix it urgently. it is very important for the Arabic language readers. Thanks for your action.

Dear Mehwish,
Below is a screen capture of the way that this bug is acting. I hope you fix this bug as soon as possible. By the way in PC version is fine. It is only on Android.

After creating a form from an existing document, viewing it in Adobe Reader for Android only shows the form fields, and not the document behind it.

Using an existing PDF file to create an editable form that I can update on my tablet as I go, but when I open the file on my tablet (using Adobe Reader for Android), it only shows the blue editable fields that I've created, but not the actual form that's supposed to be behind it. However, it views properly on my PC. Am I not saving it out correctly?

Please share the sample file with me. I am sending you instruction via private message.

Highlight text in adobe reader for android

Dear Adobe Reader Team,
I've had a problem with my adobe reader for android version 11.5.0
It's not highlighting any text or doesn't even select it when I scroll over.
Kindly help me with this Problem.
Thank you in advance.

It sounds like you have a scanned PDF document. Because a scanned PDF document contains images of text (not real text), you will not be able to select text or highlight it. You can still add Freehand drawing and/or sticky notes to a scanned PDF document.
To recognize text in a scanned PDF document, you need to run special Text Recognition software. Adobe Acrobat (a paid product) offers the capability, where as free Adobe Reader products do not.

Adobe Reader for Android to play video embedded in a PDF document.

I am a medical teacher. A large part of my teaching is technical and skills based and I have a lot of teaching video material. I distribute my material to my students as PDF documents with embedded videos. They can presently only read this on their PCs. It would be wonderful if I could place that material in a 7 inch Android tablet in their coat pockets. They could review a "how to" video and text immediately before perfoming a medical procedure. It is so easy and fast to prepare a Word text document, convert it to PDF embedded with a simple cropped video clip. Also the original word document can be updated in moments and be converted into a fresh PDF with video in a minute later to replace the one on the student computer or tablet whenever. This makes the teaching material a living text easy to keep permanently up to date. To date I have not managed to find an eReader or Tablet that that I could play an video embedded in a PDF document. The problem is Adobe Reader for Android doesn't do this. Does anyone know of any other easy way to produce documents with embedded video that can also be read on a pocket size tablet or eReader? Is Adobe going to upgrade Adobe Reader for Android to this ability sometime? Is there any other PDF reading app that can play embedded video?

GoodReader ($4.99), ezPDF Reader ($2.99) and PDF Expert ($9.99) are well rated and support many more features.

Form in Adobe Reader for Android

I created a form using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI that my customers fill out and then submit the data to a Filebound site but I when I move the form to my tablet the submit button doesn't work. It gives me no errors and does nothing.
Thanks,
Jeff White

So you are using JavaScript which the Mobile Reader for Android doesn't understand just yet. For the most part you should be able to fill the form out but if you have JavaScript actions based on which form items get filled in or clicked then I would not expect them to work. Also if you are using an XFA form I don't believe this has ever worked on any of the mobile clients.

Reflow in Adobe Reader for Android does not work

The reflow option in my Adobe reader for Android does not work. The PDF book I am trying to read is too wide to be legible when I fit it into the screen (even in landscape), but the reflow button doesn't change that. When I click it, nothing happens. The only thing I know to do is to uninstall and re-install, but that did not work. Any other tips or ideas?

Mehwish,
Thank you so much for responding, and so quickly. I appreciate it.
It does not appear as though the PDF I am trying to read would have an element in it that would block it from reflow, but that is always possible. It’s a textbook, and I understand that toward the end of the book there are some charts and diagrams, but I haven’t gotten to those chapters yet. So far, I’ve just been trying to use the Adobe Reader to read the introduction and first chapter and nothing I have done has made it reflow.
I’m enclosing a copy of the entire book. Perhaps you can uncover something in it that I didn’t see.
Thanks again for you help.

Seeing black boxes instead of hyperlinks using Adobe Reader for Android except in Reflow Mode

I am using Adobe Reader for Android (on an Android table) to view some PDF reports that have hyperlinks in them. In Reflow Mode, I can see the hyperlinks as blue underlined text, as I would expect. In Continuous or Single Page mode, these hyperlinks are displayed as black boxes. The hyperlinks still work if you click on the black box. Can someone tell me what is causing this and how I can fix it?
