Can I re-install Acrobat X Pro and somehow reduce the size of the program? 6 GB is HUGE!

My installed Adobe Acrobat X Pro is ~6 GB (according to Windows program manager). I can't justify that space. Is this necessary?
I really only need it to combine/rearrange/modify PDF presentations. Is there a way to install a smaller set of functionality?

Hi Ashley Clavette,
The Initial view setting works perfectly when the file is opened in Acrobat after setting the desired Initial View.
When you upload the file onto Wordpress, and view it on that website in the browser...it might be using a different pdf handler program which might be causing this issue ( it would be helpful, if you could provide the screenshot) , however when you download the pdf again from wordpress server...and open in Acrobat/Reader...then what exactly happens ? Does the pdf opens in the desired Initial View setting?

I cannot start installing Acrobat X Pro after I click the Install button. Please advice.

Which operating system are you using? Do you receive any error messages? Is this the trial of Adobe Acrobat X Professional or have you purchased the software?

Hi,
Thanks for posting that screenshot. It appears that you have opened your Sequence Settings for a DV-NTSC sequence and have made a circle around the "Edit Settings" button.
Since you chose to create a DV sequence, you cannot change those settings.
Do you have DV NTSC clips? If so, these are the correct settings.
If you do not have DV NTSC clips, do not be concerned. Just create the sequence.
Once you drag a non-DV clip into the DV sequence, it's OK.
You have the option of changing the Sequence Settings to match those of your clip in a new dialog box.
Click "Change Sequence Settings" in the dialog box.
I hope that helps.
Thanks,
Kevin

Can someone else try to compile this and see why the program is returning..

Can someone else try to compile this and see why the program is returning "false" when I try to delete the files on exit (at bottom of code)... I have the source code uploaded to the web as well as my 2 text test files inside a zip file(they need to be unzipped so you can try to test the program) and .class file... the program works the way i want it to, but i just can't seem to delete the 3 temporary files i use... why??? why does it return false???
Thanks in advance,

I tired your program, it still gives false for files deleted. I tool the same functions you used in your program and ran it. The files get deleted. Tried this :
<pre>
import java.io.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.util.*;
public class FileTest {
     public static void main(String args[]) {
          FileTest f = new FileTest();
          try {
               f.createFile();
               f.deleteFile();
          } catch(IOException ioe){
               System.out.println(ioe.getMessage());
     public void createFile() throws IOException {
          System.out.println("In create file method...");
          File test = new File("test1.txt");
          File tst = new File("text2.txt");
          PrintStream testStream = new PrintStream (new FileOutputStream (test));
          PrintStream tstStream = new PrintStream (new FileOutputStream (tst));
          testStream.println("this is a test to delete a file");
          tstStream.println("this is the second file created");
          testStream.close();
          tstStream.close();
     public void deleteFile() throws IOException {
          File test = new File("test1.txt");
          File tst = new File("text2.txt");
          System.out.println(test.delete());
          System.out.println(tst.delete());
</pre>
Also check the starting and closing braces for your if..else blocks.

Why can I not install Acrobat XI Pro on a Windows 8.1/64 machine?

Acrobat X Pro is running, but when I try to install Acrobat XI Pro through Adobe Creative Cloud on a Windows 8.1/64 machine it fails near the end of the installation. It indicates that it failed with 7 errors, but nowhere are the errors accessible. Can anyone help?

Were you logged in as the administrator and did you have anti-virus disabled? CC may have some special installation requirements and you need to check the CC forum for such information.

Can I install Acrobat XI Standard and Professional on the same computer?

you can't have both acrobat xi standard and pro installed.
if you purchased both, you need to uninstall standard in order to install pro.

Can I run Adobe Acrobat 6 pro and Reader X

I continue to use Adobe Acrobat 6 Professional for its ability to combine documents, and insert and delete pages in PDFs. If I download and install Adobe Reader X, will it overwrite Acrobat 6 Pro, rendering it useless? I realize that 6 Pro if very old, but has all the functionality I need to create pdfs. I am only interested in upgrading the reader portion because I occasionally receive files created in later versions and would like to view them with all their newer functions.
Thanks!
J

Might work; might not. Legacy apps (CS2, 3, 4) that weren't built to run on modern operating systems may have trouble with Mavericks. I think you'll be OK with CS5, 6 and CC.

My Adobe Acrobat X Pro don't load the program

i must reinstall and this happens with frequency (30 days like a trial program) and obviously i have 1 licence original (buy).
This happens since i installed the program for the first time.
Another problem, when i try to register my product with my serial number, the system says "Enter a valid serial number"
Thanks in advance,
Franco.

Hi Jeff, I have the master collection on the cloud. I did find info to run acrofix but it won't run on my machine.

While trying to activate Acrobat 9 Pro I am told the program can not connect to the server.

I have tries with firewalls on and off and two different ISP (Comcast and Sprint) and receive the same error every time. I am running Window Vista.

i don't think anyone on the forums can offer more than reiterating the info in that message 1 link about your hosts file, making sure you have no antivirus/antimalware/firewall active, making sure you don't have any nanny controls limiting access to certain websites and making sure you're not behind a proxy server.

Can't install Acrobat 9 Pro

I have tried to install Acrobat 9 Pro and keep getting "Status: Stopping Services" "Services to stop: Print Spooler". I have called the service folks and have had no assistance. Anybody have a fix for this? Running XP 32bit with current service packs.

Such errors are system errors due to DLLs being missing or blocked. If you use any security tools, turn them off. Beyond that verify your Windows Update status and run all the necessary updates.

I have two issues. 1) unable to update Acrobat XI Pro and 2) unable to register product

First issue: I have for the second time installed Acrobat xi pro and then click on "check for updates" from the help menu. And it shows that an update is available. But when I update it I am given the following error message:
Error 1328. Error applying patch to file C:\Config.Msi\PT669B.tmp. It has probably been updated by other means, and can no longer be modified by this patch. For more information contact your patch vendor."
When I click on "details" I am sent to adobe's "update error" page. Which states the following for error 1328: Error applying patch to [filename]. It's likely that something else updated the file, and the patch can't modify it. For more information, contact your patch vendor.
I have tried uninstalling program and re-installing program but still get same error message from my attempt at updating. So I am not sure if program is update or not. And I do not know who my "patch vendor" is.
Second issue: Unable to register product with Adobe. Because the option to do so from the "help" menu which lists "product registration" is greyed/dimmed out. Therefore not giving me the ability to register this product. Please let me know what is causing this problem.

I am not sure, but will suggest some things to try. On the activate issue, it may be that your system already thinks it is activated and so you might try the deactivate and check. If that works, I would suggest you then uninstall, run http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html, remove anything left of the Acrobat folder, reboot, and reinstall. Hopefully you can open Acrobat and activate. Then do the updates from the Help menu.

Combine Acrobat X Pro and LiveCycle Forms

Hi,
i have a 3D PDF in Acrobat X Pro and I want to add there a table which i would like to fill with xml-data from an excel-worksheet.
Now i haven't found a tool in X Pro to make tables. Important for me is that I can navigate through this table easily (like table.row or
something like this).
In LiveCycle I have created such a table in a form. But I can't get this two forms together. Can't I work together with LiveCycle and Acrobat X Pro with 3D media and combine this forms?
greetz
nahni

okay, on the adobe site I have found something about acrobat x pro and there under the point forms they explain something with livecycle. Because of this I thought this is perhaps possible.
(here's the link:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/pro/using/WS58a04a822e3e50102bd615109794195ff-7e1d.w.h tml)
But then I have to try it with one of these products.
LiveCycle I think can't deal with 3D media, so I have to do it with Acrobat X Pro?
Can I create a table in X Pro? I have only seen funcionality to add buttons and textfields.

Re-installing Acrobat after uninstalling and doing a clean re-install of the OS

I purchased Acrobat 8 Standard on 5/16/2007 and saved it to the cloud a few days ago before uninstalling/re-installing XP SP3. My computer tech cautioned me about re-installing the cloud-saved up-to-date version as it wouldn't be compatable with my new user files. He told me to install the 2007 version and then run update within the program. So I ask (having found the location on the Adobe site where I can download), is this going to be the same program I purchased, un-updated? If not, what's my work-around?
Thanks, RW

Hi walkerlaw1,
Am not sure what files you have saved to the Cloud. Is it the setup file or the Folder in your Program Files?
Adobe recommends archiving the setup file for future use.
Acrobat 8 Std. is no longer available on our website to download. If you have purchased an Electronic Download (ESD) version from Adobe then you can login to your account on Adobe and find the download link in your Adobe account. Yes, this would be the same program you purchased. And as recommended by your computer tech, you can download and install Acrobat 8 Std. and then run the updater within the program to update it to the latest patch.

Trouble installing Acrobat XI Pro

I'm trying to install Acrobat XI Pro and it won't complete the install until I close winword.exe which isn't open. Is there a trick to by pass this?

No Birdtail you will need to make sure you close the process. Please use the Task Manager to ensure that Winword.exe is no longer running. You may also want to try rebooting your computer and then try the installation again.

CS6 - cannot install Acrobat X Pro

Upon installed everything from the CS6 pack, it pops up that Acrobat X Pro cannot be installed with error message :
ERROR: DW050: - Acrobat Professional: Install failed
Any idea?

Mid of Aug. 2013, I bought a new Lenovo T430s notebook pc & Adobe CS6 Master Collection (student edition, ENGLISH Version) in Hong Kong, then find out i could not install first all of the software in CS6 Master collection, and then could install all other software in CS6 Master collection,except Acrobat X Pro could not be installed.
I use many methods listed in Adobe Help Community and had installation for over 5 times still cannot work it out.
I then call to Adobe Technical Support Hotline: 852- 3071 4922 in Hong Kong, Mr David Leung at technical support talked to me three times in a week, and we communciate by email too.
Over the phone, David Leung instructed to install Acrobat X Pro from my notebook pc 's safe mode by type in "misconfig" at run, but still could not install Acrobat X Pro from CS6 Master collection.
Here are the whole case, and method to solve it, anyone face similar installation problem that could not install Acrobat X Pro from Adobe CS6 Master Collection under Window 8, could try this method that I use, and i could install Acrobat X Pro in success by myself finally over 10 days.
Computer for install the software:
- a NEW Lenovo Notebook computer, Model T430s, Window 8 (Traditional Chinese Version), Microsoft Office 2013,
NO Anti-virsus software and other software are installed, deleted Adobe AIR installed in the notebook computer
Actions Taken try to install CS6 Master Collection and Acrobat X Pro (* BUT NOT WORK):
- use Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool
- set Regional Language Setting to UK English in computer
- reinstall CS6 master collection, and Acrobat X Pro for few times
- used another new set up administrator account to log in computer to install the software
Notes:
- First time to install CS6 master collection, only Acrobat X Pro and InDesign Software BOTH could not installed successfully.Then base on a Chinese user in China posted info online from google, and use his method to delete 'Caps.db' and 'pdb.db' in Program Files(x86)/common files/adobe/caps, then re-install CS6 master collection, then InDesign and other software could be installed, but only Acrobat X Pro still cannot be installed.

ERROR: DW050: The following payload errors were found during install:
ERROR: DW050: - Acrobat Professional: Install failed
I see one of the error message is Error 1335 , which has shown in some of the past trial installation of Acrobat X Pro from Cs6 master collection. I then go to search error 1335 on Adobe help community online and see this link info:
http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/install-error-1311-1335-or.html
Error 1311, 1335, or 2350 "Source file not found...data1.cab" |Install Adobe products | Windows
I then use its mention method, I COPY the DISC 1 of Adobe Cs6 master collection from the D: of my notebook computer to my computer Desktop 's new folder (I make a new folder on desktop first). Then I install the Acrobat X Pro from the copied whole disc 1 at the Desktop folder, then I could install Acrobat X Pro immediately and successfully to my Window 8 (Chinese) platform notebook computer. I could use Acrobat X Pro (i.e Acrobat 10.0) at the computer now. It means to install Acrobat X Pro from DESKTOP is the solution.
** FOR ADOBE:
Share these with you, hope it could help, and wish ADOBE could archive my case and this method to help all others.
Normal users same as me must feel frustrations if could not install Adobe software. ADOBE as an international software developer should fix the bugs asap once it already know the bugs relate to Window 8 or any other new pc software may crash Adobe software !!!

Can I re-install Acrobat X Pro and somehow reduce the size of the program? 6 GB is HUGE!
