  • What is the shortcut key to highlight words in adobe reader in macbook pro

    what is the shortcut key to highlight words in adobe reader in macbook pro?
    Shift + U is not working
    how can i change shortcut key?

    I don't believe there is a keyboard shortcut available for that feature. But I believe if you click-select the topmost chapter, and Shift-click the bottommost chapter, it should select them all.
    Other shortcuts for books can be set up in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts in the Panel Menus product area. There are no default shortcuts in that area.

  • How to highlight specific words in the Reader

    Hi!
    I am new to the Acrobat SDK and could need some guidance on how to solve the following problem:
    I need a plug-in that is able to highlight specific words in a pdf file (e.g. by underlining it or changing the background color) and offers a context menu with futher actions when the user clicks on a highlighted word. The first step would be searching the text to find the word that should be marked. I think that should not be that hard but how can I highlight specific words? I first thought of annotations but I need it in the Reader and I should not change the pdf file itself (just the view of it).
    The idea is similar to the skype plug-in for Firefox or IE. The skype plug-in highlights phone numbers. We need to highlight specific words.
    Thanks for every hint on how to achieve this!

    >The documentation says that AVPageViewHilightText is supposed to use >the current color set with AVPageViewSetColor - so it should work. >What version of Acrobat are you working with?
    Yes that how understood the documentation too. I tried the following:
    //Define red
    red.space = PDDeviceRGB;
    red.value[0] = ASInt32ToFixed(1);
    red.value[1] = 0;
    red.value[2] = 0;
    // highlight
    AVPageViewSetColor(pageView, &red);
    PDTextSelect pdTextSelect = PDDocCreateTextSelect(pdDoc, pageNum, &bbox);
    AVPageViewHighlightText(pageView, pdTextSelect);
    I am using Acrobat 7.0.9.
    >Drawing an image would be done with AVPageViewDrawCosObj
    >- which means you'll need to bring the image in as a PDF
    > object and then render it.
    Oh I should have seen that. Thanks for the hint!!
    >Interesting, there should be a way to get transparency,
    > but I am not seeing it at the moment.
    As far as I understood it, it is possible to set the color to transparent but thats not what I am looking for. I would like to have a way of changing the alpha channel of the color.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I would suggest you to uninstall Adobe Reader using the cleaner tool and then re-install the latest version.
    Adobe Cleaner Tool:- Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs.

    If you still experience the same issue, please share the following information:-
    - Screenshot of Adobe Reader showing printer options
    - Screenshot of Microsoft Word showing printer options

    Just found out that I can't run microsoft word or adobe photo shop with Mavericks, is there a way to make this work?

    You must be using very old versions (Office 2004 or older, Photoshop CS2 or older).
    Upgrade to newer, or current versions.

    I can't print a doc in adobe reader x

    Is there a Dock Icon that was created for your Printer? If so, open it and look at the list to be printed and delete the extras.
    If not, you did not get that far, so no 15 copies for you!

  • 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.

  • Can you kern between letters in Adobe Reader?

    Can you kern between letters in Adobe Reader?
    I am using v.11 on a Mac and can adjust the leading between sentences fine but would also like to kern between the letters if it's possible. Any help would be appreciated.

    Yes, between lines (I just called them sentences, but lines is more accurate)
    In the "Properties" toolbar click "More."
    Then click the "Paragraph" tab.
    At the bottom is Above/Below.
    Highlight the line(s) you want to adjust in the pdf.
    I just use positive and negative numbers (ie. -5, -12, 8, 15) and the lines adjust without problems.
    I figure if it can do this, then maybe you can kern too and I'm just not seeing where/how.......  

  • Can't open PDFs/uninstall program Adobe Reader (11.0.08) MUI

    I can't open PDFs, can't uninstall program, I have Adobe Reader (11.0.08) MUI (I don't know what MUI is...), help! I have tried numerous times to uninstall and change the program. Every time I try to do this, a window comes up saying that files are open (Adobe Reader) and to either retry or close. I can do neither, so I'm unable to uninstall the program. I've never had anything like this happen to me. I scanned my computer for viruses, malware, etc. and nothing came up. Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I just try to download the software from the Adobe site and see what happens?
    Thanks, Tracy

    Assuming you are in Windows (which you haven't said), you can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.
    And I think it is Multilanguage User Interface...

  • I can't open PDF files, can't open, update, or download Adobe Reader ( I had it until recently) and don't have an "edit options"

    I can't open PDF files, can't open, update, or download Adobe Reader. (I had it until recently.) None of the "helps" seem to help. I can't even open Adobe Reader now.

    Ignore the instructions about "edit options", to install Adobe Reader download the installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/ and run the installer. Alternatively, a direct link for the latest version of Adobe Reader is:
    http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3.4/enu/AdbeRdr934_en_US.exe
    The following article should help you set it up - [[opening PDF files within Firefox]].

  • Can I download two versions of Adobe Reader on my machine?

    I need both versions 9 and XI for work-related projects. Is there a way to keep both downloaded on my machine and then pick which version to use to open PDFs? I am frustrated that I have to keep re-downloading the versions I need. Please advise best way to go about this. Thank you!

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    You can have Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Reader XI downloaded on your machine. (You can keep setup.exe files) but you can't use 2 versions of Adobe reader on your computer as newer version removes the older version.
    Thanks,

  • Can the folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6 and the files it contains simpley be deleted?

    My daughter is running Adobe Reader 9.4.5 and Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X
    on a Dell Dimension 4400 system with
    Windows XP Home Edition version 2002 Service Pack 3.
    During a full system backup using Seagate DiskWizard version 11.0.8326
    each time folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6
    is accessed the pc freezes with the Blue Screen error
    IRQL NOT LESS OR EQUAL ERROR 0x0000000A
    (0x00000166, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x804E5443).
    Each time the Adobe Reader 6 folder is opened manually, the system presents a spinning
    CD icon superimposed on the cursor and attempts to access the CD drive.
    The access ultimately fails since there is no CD loaded because there is no intent to install
    anything at the moment.
    Through a manual process of backing up each of the the files in the Adobe Reader 6 folder
    individually, one at a time, I strongly suspect the problem file to be instmsiw.exe.
    Can the folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6 and the files it contains simpley be deleted? 
    Are there any registry entries or issues that must be addressed before deleting these files?
    What is the best way to free up space on the C drive that is apparently being occupied by
    files left over from the install of a prior version of Adobe Reader?
    The folder C:\Windows\Cache\Adobe Reader 6 contains the following files:
    0x0409.ini                        5KB          Configuration Settings        2/18/2003
    abcpy.ini                          2KB          Configuration Settings        3/24/2003
    Adobe Reader 6.0.msi      2198KB     Windows Installer               5/19/2003
    Data1.cab                       23334KB    WinZip file                         5/19/2003
    instmsia.exe                   1669KB      Application                        3/11/2002
    instmsiw.exe                  1780KB      Application                        3/11/2002

    Rdr60ENU.mst               4KB            MST file                           4/16/2003
    Setup.exe                      212KB        Application                        5/19/2003
    Setup.ini                        2KB            Configuration Settings        5/19/2003
    Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

    Go to Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel and uninstall Adobe Reader 6. That version poses a security risk to your system and should be removed a.s.a.p.
    After you remove it, reboot and then delete the "Adobe Reader 6" folder at the location you mentioned above.
    Then go to http://get.adobe.com/reader/direct/ and download version 9.4
    After that installs, download the latest patch for it by opening the program, then go to Help | Check For Updates.
    As a precaution, download the free version of Malwarebytes from here: http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free and then run a full system scan.
