Can Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 function as a previewer in windows folders?

I use Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and want my .pdf files to only open with adobe pro, I also want to have a previewer option in file folders. With adobe pro 9 only on my machine I do not have the previewer capabilities and when I download abobe reader that program acts as the default.
Is it possible to have the best of both worlds?

  • Show that Adobe Acrobat Pro XI is installed on my Windows 8 computer, but I can't find the app list

    I am using windows 8 and the Adobe Cloud shows that Adobe Acrobat Pro XI is installed and updated, but I can't find the app, and, when looking at my list of programs to "uninstall", I don't see it listed either. (I thought a possible solution might be to uninstall and install again)
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    HI Marshapearson,
    Please try removing Acrobat from the link mentioned below.
    Link : http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html.
    Once you have removed the product, please launch the Creative CLoud APP once again and install ACrobat on the machine .
    Let us know if you face any further issue or if it worked fine for you .
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Does Adobe Acrobat Pro or Reader mount all listed network folders in Mac OS X 10.6?

    I administer several Macintoshes on a managed network. Recently, we migrated most machines to Mac OS X 10.6. Now, when users navigate to a network folder to open a document from Acrobat Pro 9, Acrobat Pro X or Acrobat Reader X, any folder shown in the "Open" window from Acrobat is mounted on the user's desktop. The protocol doesn't matter - the server could be accessed via smb or afp. If the file is held in a network folder near the bottom of the alphabet, all folders that are exposed in the "Open" window mount. Not only does this create clutter and confusion for the user, but sometimes it crashes Acrobat.
    This behavior is present only in Acrobat Reader, Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and X. No other application, Adobe or not has this affect navigating through the open file function.
    This behavior is present after complete uninstall/reinstalls of the applications.
    This behavior is present in any account – local or network.
    This behavior is present on any Macintosh running Max OS X 10.6.
    This behavior is NOT present in OS X 10.5.
    Can anyone else in this forum duplicate or explain this behavior?

    Hi Onewizard,
    I tried and checked this on different version of Acrobat and Reader however not able to replicate this behavior. I am on MAC 10.6.8

  • When I reinstalled my Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 on my laptop running Windows 7 Pro

    When I reinstalled my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on my laptop O/S Windows 7 Pro, it changed all my icons to Adobe Acrobat and changed all my programs to open with Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. Of course they won't open.
    How can I reinstall Adobe Acrobat so that this does not happen?

  • How do I set customized changes in Custom Toolsets during deployed installation on Adobe Acrobat Pro XI?

    I am trying to set settings in the Custom Toolsets, specifically Protection\Redaction Properties - Example:  Changing highlight color and enabling text overlay.  Is there a way to modify the settings for a deployment?  I am unable to find a way through the Customization wizard and am having trouble finding documentation on deploying customized settings to toolsets. 
    Issue:
    Customizing Toolsets as part of Adobe Acrobat Pro XI Deployment
    Environment:
    For deployment I am using the Adobe Customization Wizard and SCCM 2012 to distribute and install Adobe Acrobat Pro XI.
    Environment has both Windows 7 and Windows 8.1

    Thank you,

    It's in the ETK:
    3   Pre-Deployment Planning — Enterprise Administration Guide
    3.7.4   Tool Sets
    Acrobat 11.0 introduces a streamlined way to create and manage custom tool sets across the enterprise. A Customize button in the upper right-hand area of the toolbar allows users to create new tool sets, manage existing tool sets, and choose any existing tool set.
    This feature helps organizations standardize task-specific tool views, reduce training costs, and improve employee efficiency by grouping related tools into a common view. This feature allows:
    End users to easily create or import custom tool sets.
    Easy switching between different tool sets.
    IT to create, distribute, and otherwise manage tool sets across the enterprise.

    3.7.4.1   Tool set file locations
    Tool set files reside in two locations:
    A local user directory (full access): Files which are stored and imported by the current user are placed in the default current user’s directory. For example:
    C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\11.0\UICustomization\<anyname>.aaui
    A local, product directory (read only): Files in this directory are visible to any user on the machine. For example:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\UICustomization\<language>\<anyname>.aaui
    3.7.4.2   UI overview
    To work with tool sets:
    Choose Customize > Manage Tool Sets.
    Perform any needed action.
    Note When creating a new Tool Set, you can choose any available tool in any desired order.

  • I am trying to use Barcode function on Adobe acrobat pro version..I could not figure out..how can i

    I am trying to use Barcode function on Adobe acrobat pro version..I could not figure out..how can i autopopulate forms using Barcode from one PDF document( form) to next PDF document( form)..i am missing something in between those?

    I have no idea what you are asking - can you be a little bit more clear formulating your question.
    Anyway, this is the Adobe Reader forum; you should probably ask in the Acrobat forum.

  • How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central.

    How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central. It's for an online Diet Questionnaire. After people complete the form I'd like them to click "SUBMIT" and the completed form will be emailed to me.

    This can be a bit confusing because Acrobat 11 comes with the desktop app that allows you to create simple PDF forms without having a FormsCentral account. Some people find this helpful, but you need to understand that when you generate the PDF form, it is Reader-enabled by Acrobat. In order to edit the form further in Acrobat, you have to create a non-enabled copy of the form. You do this in Acrobat by opening the form and selecting: File > Save a Copy
    and opening the copy. It is not opened automatically.
    You can now add a button and set it up to submit by email, either using a "Submit a form" action or the submitForm JavaScript method. You can set it up to include just the form data or the entire PDF, and will want to use a mailto type URL. Submitting the form to the FormsCentral server has a number of important advantages over email (much more reliable, more secure, etc.), so you might want to consider it.
    If the form needs to be saved with Reader versions prior to 11, then you will need to Reader-enable the document. In Acrobat 11 you do this by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools

  • I have a license to Adobe Acrobat Pro DC - can I use it in the mobile app?

    Hi!
    I recently bought the license to Adobe Acrobat Pro DC for my computer and now I want to extend my possibilites with the mobile app. Is it possible in some way to use the bought license in the mobile app? Because I'm requested to buy additional packages when I for example wants to export a pdf?
    Thanks!
    Mikael Damar

    Hi Mikael,
    I am can understand your concern & will guide you in the right direction. Can please let me know if you have a subscription for Adobe Acrobat DC Pro or its a Perpetual licence?
    As with perpetual licence you won't be able to use the extended functionality on the mobile app. by using the same licence and it will prompt you for the additional package. However if its a subscription you just need to simply Sign In to the mobile app. using your Adobe ID with which you serialized the Acrobat DC Pro on the computer to use these functionality.
    Regards,
    Aadesh

  • Help!  I can't distribute forms, or email them at all in Adobe Acrobat Pro

    I have wasted an entire weekend attempting to email, distribute etc. forms out of the Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.2 I just bought.  I have uninstalled and redownloaded and I just get the error "unable to connect with mail."  I am working off of my Macbook Pro   10.5.8.  I will include some screen shots below.  I have go to make this work.  I also can't send any pdf attachment, I drag and drop, thats a no go, from mail I go through the add attachment and select the pdf that way, and won't go.  I'm losing my mind.  Any info is appreciated, I have searched all formus and googled to no avail.  Oh I am using the student teacher version as well.  Thanks

    Well I was hoping someone more knowledgeable than I would come and nail this thing for you...
    But I think you have moved another step forward by showing that Pro can actually send a file.  Therefore in my inexpert opinion, you cannot send the form because of its internal functionality upsetting the email security.  Try sending from another email system.
    Also, now that I recall, in the distant past I learned the hard way that there is a 'publish' process with those forms and you may not have quite finished the form...check your manual for a final step.
    Please somebody fill in that gap for us!!
    Adobe student versions are usually (if not always) identical to the full ones AFAIK.

  • Preview with Adobe Acrobat Pro

    At first LiveCycle designer was installed with acrobat pro. I could preview (in LiveCycle Designer) with Acrobat pro. Later I installed Adobe reader X. Now Acrobat pro has been replaced with reader in liveCycle Designer Preview.
    So, when I preview, reader is working as default.
    How can I change to Acrobat pro as default without reinstallation?

    Hi,
    Can you install a copy of Reader on a second machine or on a virtual machine?
    There may be a change you can make in the registry, but I am not sure.
    Good luck,

  • Functionality of Adobe Acrobat Pro for Mac questions?

    Greetings! After 35 years in the Windows environment, I became the proud owner of a MacBook air last night, and I want to install Adobe Acrobat Pro for Mac on it. I would like to know if the features and functionality of the Mac version are the same as those on the Adobe Acrobat Standard that I have been using in my Windows environment for so many years.
    The Windows version gives me everything I need, most importantly the ability to add text as annotations into documents that have been scanned and sent to me as PDFs, fill in forms, create forms, etc.
    Additionally, can someone help me with the differences between the subscription version and the full purchase version? Does the subscription version have any problems, is it just as functional as the full purchase version?
    Thank you so much all!

    If you don't have a physical printer hooked up to your Mac you can still do the Save As Adobe PDF with a "faux" printer setup.  Here are the steps to set that up:
    1.  Go to Apple menu>System Preference>Printers and Scanners
    2.  Press the plus symbol button "+"
    3.  In the Add dialog select IP at the top
    4.  in the Address field put the numbers 127.0.0.1
    5.  In the Protocol pop-up menu make sure that Line Printer Daemon - LPD is selected
    6.  Leave the Queue field bland for the default printer
    7.  In the Name field it will say "127.0.0.1" and you can leave it to that or change it to anything you want.
    8.  Leave the Location field blank
    9.  Leave the Use field pop-up menu field at the default which is Generic PostScript Printer.
    10.  Click the Add button
    11.  You will get the message:
    "Unable to verify the printer on your network.
    Unable to connect to '127.0.0.1' due to an error.
    Would you still like to create the printer?"
    12.  Click the Continue button.
    13.  In the Setting up '127.0.0.1...' dialog click the OK button
    14.  Open up TextEdit
    15.  Type some test text (e.g.  Test Text)
    16. In TextEdit Go to File>Print
    17. In the Print dialog, press on the PDF button on the lower Left side of the window.
    18.  Select Save As Adobe PDF.
    19.  In the Save As Adobe PDF dialog, select your Adobe PDF Settings and whether or not you want the resulting PDF to open in Adobe Acrobat Pro and then click the Continue button.
    20. In the Save window, title your PDF in the Save As: field, navigate to the location you want to save the PDF and then click the Save button.
    21. Done.

  • Can I use a buisness version of Adobe Acrobat Pro on a computer that has already an active adobe ID with personal (non buisness versions) programms?

    I have an Abode ID with Photoshop for private use.
    For work I need an updated version of Adobe acrobat pro.
    But how can I get it to work on the same computer?
    Can I add a buisness version to the Adobe (private) ID?
    Or can I use 2 adobe ID's at the same time?

    I don't think there are such things as business and non-business versions of software as far as Adobe is concerned.  How you manage the installations of the software you purchase from them is your call.  If there is some protocol for doing this that is defined by your workplace then you should inquire with whomever manages that protocol.

  • How can I move Adobe Acrobat Pro from my old laptop to my new one?

    A few years ago I purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro. I recently purchased a new laptop. As such, I'd like to install Adobe Acrobat Pro on the new machine, however; I don't want to have to purchase it again. Does anyone know how I can move it from my old laptop to my new one?

    I feel I've explained plenty what you must do but you aren't getting it.
    All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer. Transfer the music from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPhone in the same way it was transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
    Since you prefer the manual way, you must manually drag and drop the same 377 songs from your iTunes library to your new iPhone - in the same way the 377 songs were manually transferred from your iTunes library to your old iPhone.
    Or you can sync which provides more options overall. Create an iTunes playlist for the 377 songs. Select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and choose selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres. Select the iTunes playlist below that includes the 377 songs followed by a sync.  

  • How can I add a button to add multiple image in PDF from using adobe acrobat pro?

    I have to create a pdf form using Adobe Acrobat Pro X.
    In this form I want to add a button where I can add multiple images to the field.
    I have tried using javascript event.target.buttonImportIcon(); and successfully add an image, but when I want to add the 2nd image it automatically overwrites the previous one.
    Is there any way to solve this issue? I would like to have a form where I can add a lot of images in it. It is possible in word, but we really have to use adobe.
    Thanks

    Hi thanks for your answer.
    I can add multiple button, but if there are 10 images that I wan to add, then I have to create 10 buttons.
    Moreover, the pictures will be placed on top of each other and it means that you cannot see it clearly.
