Cannot download PDF Library SDK

Whenever I follow the link to download the PDF Library SDK, I get an error:
Insufficient privileges (HTTP 403 error)
I have registered and have a valid account, so it appears its a problem with Adobe's website. Anybody at Adobe know whats going on?

How many non-web developers even know what a 403 is? Any link spitting out error codes, 404, 403, 500 or whatever is broken as far as I am concerned. Those codes tell me nothing about what I did wrong to cause them. What if the dev that wrote that script forgot to chmod a required file? Nothing indicates the error was my fault.
Furthermore, if it eases your frustrations, you will notice that this is the first time I have had to post. I have used the forum for quite some time and been able to find all of my answers. I have been trying to download the SDK for a solid week now, so I resent you telling me I am too lazy to read. I did in fact read the entire page, but the paragraph you site did not indicate to me that failing to obtain a license would cause me to see a 403. I assumed the license would be required before distributing the software, I wasn't positive it was required for the download link to function.
The fact remains, Bernd gave me all the information I required. I even admitted my mistake. There was no need for you to post with your attempt to humiliate me on a public forum. I never said "Adobe sucks", so I don't know who you were quoting.

  • Queries on The Adobe PDF Library SDK

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to merge multiple PDF files to single PDF on AIX 5.3 Server. This is currently done using Itext and Java. But recently we noted that Itext doesn't compress the PDF significantly. Then we tried merging the PDF with Adobe Acrobat Writer(Adobe Standard 8) manually on Desktop (windows Vista). To our surprise the Merged PDF size was less.
    So we want to move on to Adobe SDK. Appreciate response on below queries:-
    1) Is it possible to use PDF Library SDK to Merge multiple PDF to single one via Java program.
    2) As the Program will be run in AIX 5.3 Server which is the version of PDF Library SDK I can use?
    3) Can I use PDF Library SDK on server?
    4) Is license required to create one target PDF from multiple source PDFs? I presume PDF Library SDK require license.
    5) How much is the cost involved in purchasing it. Do i have to buy whole suite as my requirement is only PDF writer?
    6) Can I get any support from Adobe for SDK related problems after the purchase of product.
    7) I have downloaded, Acrobat 9 SDK. Please suggest how to proceed for finding docs on PDF writer as folder looks ambiguous.
    Thanks,
    Anu

    Thanks lrosenth.
    Please help me with the below queries also,
    1) Advantage of LiveCycle ES over Adobe PDF Library?
    2) Can I use Adobe PDF Library on AIX system and Java?
    3) LiveCycle ES family of products :- Is it comes as single license, or can i purchase it based on my requirement of SDK (Only PDF Merge & Compresssion) ?
    4) LiveCycle ES family of products:- Will it work with Java and AIX.
    Depending on your reply i will raise license request for either LiveCycle ES / Adobe PDF Library .
    Best Regards,
    Anu

    Cannot download pdf files with Safari 6.0.4

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

    Hi,
    I just want to report my experiences with hybrid extensions and CS Extension Builder 1.5 for use with InDesign CS 5.5. I can say that trying to build a hybrid extension brings a lot of frustration, because CS Extension Builder has many bugs and the documentation plus the examples from InDesign and Illustrator are only a hint one can use. At least I am happy that I must not use the hybrid extension in my project, because I could do it completely in C++.
    The "SDK Extension Toolkit" mentioned in the post seems to be what I have as "nativeapptoolkit", and it has not much in it except the PlugPlug library itself and a small sample for Photoshop.
    After several days with resolving severe problems with the help of the forum messages, I was in the end not able to receive the user defined events that were sent from the plugin to the extension, what is the preferred way of communicating between plugin and extension.
    It seems that there is still a lot of work to do for Adobe to deliver an environment that is easy to use. Another obstacle is that one has to use the installer created by CS Extension Builder to install both the plugin and the extension, what limiteds the customization of the installer.

  • Where can I find CODE & DOCS for Acrobat PDF Library SDK?

    Hi,
    I had used Acrobat PDF SDK in the past but it didnt serve the purpose and we had to abort plan. THis time we are using PDF LIBRARY SDK instead. When can i find the code and documentation for it?
    The only page I see is http://www.adobe.com/devnet/pdf/library/
    So I want to study the object models, objects, functions etc, cant find it. Also is there a book you can suggest to study it. I sort of know the PDF-SDK wel, is the PDF-LIBRARY-SDK almost the same ?
    Pls direct me to the code and documentation, so I can start coding on it.

    >WHy dont you have non confusing names for the products, one is the free Acrobat PDF SDK
    No, it's the Acrobat SDK. This doesn't seem confusing at all: it's an
    SDK for automating/controlling Acrobat, just as the Windows SDK is a
    tool for working with Windows, the Photoshop SDK is a tool for working
    with Photoshop etc. "Free" isn't used in the title, because that would
    be confusing, and might suggest it can be deployed with the free Adobe
    Reader.
    Nevertheless, maybe something could improve it because there are a
    huge number of developer who assume it will work with the Reader or
    without Acrobat, despite its name.
    >and the other is Acrobat PDF LIBRARY SDK, right?
    The other is the Adobe PDF Library. It's a library from Adobe for
    working with PDF. Acrobat is not part of the name. It would be
    confusing if it were. Maybe it could be called the "non-Acrobat PDF
    Library".

  • Output to Postscript using PDF Library SDK

    I'm pretty sure I read that the PDF Library supports exporting to Postscript, but I'm having a hard time finding how to do that in the documentation. Can someone tell me which document (AND IT'S PAGE NUMBER) that explains how to take a PDF and convert it to Postscript using the PDF Library (not the Acrobat SDK). I'm guessing we will be working with version 8.1 unless 9.0 of the PDF Library SDK is released soon.
    Let me phrase it a little in a different way since I know that some of the regulars here tend to be touchy on the wording of a question. I have a PDF and I want to use the PDF Library SDK to a Postscript version of that PDF.
    Here's a picture: PDF file -> PDF Library SDK-> Postscript file
    I appreciate the help.
    Thanks,
    JK

    Hi guys. I have been trying for a few days now to produce a postscript file from a pdf within my own project using bits and pieces from the printpdf sample project. I can compile and run the sample project fine, but after I compile my project and run it I keep getting the following error:
    Error code: 1, Error Message: An internal error occurred.
    After pulling out most of my hair I decided to create a new project and include only the exact files that the printpdf sample includes.
    I created a new console project (VS2005). I added the following preprocessor directives:
    _DEBUG
    WIN_ENV
    WIN_PLATFORM
    PRODUCT=\"HFTLibrary.h\"
    WIN32
    _CONSOLE
    _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE
    I added the correct headers directory and the correct libs directory with the correct lib.
    I added the following files that are necessary for the printpdf project to work:
    Header Files:
    MyPDFLibUtils.h
    Source Files:
    MyPDFLibApp.cpp
    MyPDFLibUtils.cpp
    PDFLInitCommon.c
    PDFLInitHFT.c
    printpdf.cpp
    I haven't changed any of the files other than the input and output file.
    I can compile my newly created project fine, but when I run the app a 0 byte postscript file is produced and the following error still occurs:
    Error code: 1, Error Message: An internal error occurred.
    It's blowing up on the following line of code:
    PDFLPrintDoc(doc, &rec);
    Like I said before the sample pdfprint project is able to produce the postscript file without the error and I am using the same pdf input file and output file specified as in my own project.
    I'm hoping that someone has run into this before or knows what I might be doing wrong. The sample code works, but when I take that sample code and put it into a new console project and match all of the project settings it will compile but it won't run without getting that error.
    Any help is appreciated.
