Cannot find .TIF file saved with Acrobat 9 Pro

I have a Canon document scanner that I use with Acrobat 9 Pro on Windows 7. I can scan the document into Acrobat, and save it as a PDF just fine. However, if I try to save it as a .TIF or a .TIFF, it appears to save just fine, but I'm unable to locate it afterwards. Here's what I've done so far:
- Checked to make sure hidden files are visible in Windows Explorer
- Made sure the permissions for the folder allowed writing files (even saved the TIF files to the same folder as the PDF files)
- Searched for the filename with Windows Search. It finds the file, but when I try to click on it to open the file, Windows says that the file cannot be found.
We're needing this for importing documents into a LIMS program, and we can't get that working until this part gets resolved. Anything that you can think of to help would be great. Thank you!

Solved: It appears to be a Microsoft Word issue as it doesn't occur with other apps. When using the built-in 'convert to PDF' tool within Word the file name length is respected. It's an older version of Word (Word 2002 SP3). I printed a file using the same name length with Wordperfect and it works fine.
I know this isn't a Word help forum, but if anyone does have a solution to offer it would be appreciated :-)

REDUCE FILE SIZE with Acrobat Pro

Hi everyone!
I created a epk for a rock band with Illustrator then I created one pdf that contains the all three pages with Acrobat Pro (I downloaded the trial because it was just for this occasion) This epk is a pdf file with 3 pages, some pictures and hyperlinks.
I need to send the epk to the band and they want a reduced size one. The original is 8.3 M but obviously it's too big to be sent via email.
I have been trying with the option SAVE AS - REDUCED SIZE PDF but it doesn't work! Still the same size.
I am new to acrobat so maybe I am missing something.
HELP!
Thanks

Hi michelab,
You can also try choosing Save As > Optimized PDF. There are various settings in that dialog box that you can manipulate to bring down the file size. Here's the Help topic on that dialog box, with information about the various settings:http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/optimizing-pdfs-acrobat-pro.html
Please let us know how it goes.

Cannot create any PDF docs with Acrobat Pro 7.0

I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 7.0 running on Microsoft XP. All of a sudden, I cannot
convert any documents into PDFs. I have tried converting Microsoft Word
docs and those from other applications. It is important to stress that I
have managed to do this many times in the past, but for some reason Acrobat
has suffenly stopped doing this. I have tried 'printing' to PDF and
'converting' to PDF. Each time I get the following error message on a
'Notepad':
"%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: setdistillerparams; ErrorInfo:
CalCMYKProfile U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2 ]%%
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
Error accessing color profile: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2
%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%"
I have clicked on 'Detect & Repair' under the 'Help' menu button in Adobe
Acrobat and this supposedly did some form of reinstalling/fixing (without
the need for a CD to be inserted into the computer) and asked me to turn off
my computer & then turn it back on.
Having done this, I still cannot get docs to convert to PDF.
I have not added any particular hardware or software to my computer in
recent times. Apart from the PDF conversion, everything else in Adobe
Acrobat Pro seems to run fine. I can read all documents etc.
Can you help me?
Thanks,
Alan

OK, I've got everything to work - so long as I 'Print' docs to PDF rather than clicking on the PDF conversion icons (if I click on these icons, I just get an error).
But if I print to PDF, everything now works - I've even managed to solve the Word problem - I think it was a faulty Word doc for some reason. I found a useful document which told me how to set up all the settings for Acrobat Distiller (http://mydocs.epri.com/docs/CorporateDocuments/WorkingWithEPRI/CreatingAcrobatPDFs.pdf).
If you know how to make the PDF conversion icons work (it must be something simple) that'll save me having to print each time, it would be great, but I can survive without this.

Why are my InDesign 6 files saving with Acrobat extensions

This has just recently started happening. Suggestions?

In terms of Adobe, an "extension" is something like a plugin or a script. Something you can manage in the Extension Manager. Are you sure you mean that?
And it most certainly did not happen without you taking any previous action to cause it, an action like system updates, software updates or wildly changing preferences.
Suggestions? One: restore your OS to a date prior to the first problem appearance and then leave it untouched.

Reader can't open file saved with "Extended Features"

Any help would be appreciated.
File created with Acrobat Pro 9.
File opens fine under Windows and Linux, but can't be saved.
Enable "Extended Features in Adobe Reader" in Acrobat Pro 9.
File can be saved under Windows, but gives an error in Linux.
"This document enabled extended features in Adobe Reader. The document has been changed since it was created and use of extended features is no longer available. Please contact the author for the original version of the document."
The file opens, but is unusable. Nothing can be entered into any of the fields.
Thanks,
-matt

I had the same problem earlier this week -- I created a PDF with Acrobat 9, enabled for commenting, sent out to coworkers, who then reported the "use of extended features is no longer available" message. After many, many troubleshooting permutations, I finally found the problem to be related to the timestamp on the file.
I am on the US east coast, and the document was sent to coworkers on the US west coast, 3 hours earlier. When they opened the document, it appeared to be "from the future" (lol) and therefore suspect. This was born out by the fact that the next day, the file behaved as expected for them. I also verified this on a test system, where I was able to switch the time setting. By the way, this happened with both Reader 8 and 9.
So, I guess the workaround is either to change your computer's time before sending a file with rights extensions to someone in an earlier time zone, or create it and hold it until they have caught up with the time in the file's timestamp.
That has to be about the weirdest bug I have encountered to date...and I have no idea why it showed up this week. I have been sending out PDFs enabled for commenting for a couple years.

Adobe Acrobat Pro cannot find moved files or files with edited names

Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1 cannot find recent files or files with edited names.
For instance, if a PDF file is moved in the hard disk from one foder to another, Acrobat cannot find it when trying to open it via "File - Open Recent File".
Likewise, if the name of the file is changed in the Finder.
Similarly, if a PDF file is open, it is marked with the yellow fluorescent marker of Acrobat, its name is then changed in the Finder and later on you try to save it, Acrobat says that it cannot find such file.
Yet, applications like Microsoft Word do not have any of the above problems. It would be great if Adobe could fix these serious productivity issues, which have plagued Acrobat for many years now.
How to send such feedback to Adobe?

KB2785094 fails on Windows 8 Pro N with 0x80070002 "The system cannot find the file specified."

Hi,
I'm getting 0x80070002 "The system cannot find the file specified." with KB2785094. I'm using Windows 8 Pro N. I've seen a few people with problems with this patch when I search online about it.
I've tried deleting everything in C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore and C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Downloads. I've run DISM /scanhealth and /restorehealth.
I also tried running WUSA with the /log option to try to find which file exactly is not found, but when I opened the log file in Event Viewer, it was empty.
How can I found out which file is causing the error?

I found the answer here:
http://www.eightforums.com/windows-updates-activation/17523-kb2785094-failure.html
And also by checking the files updated on the KB page: I had deleted the Accessibility and System Tools folders under C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs. Once I recreated both those folders, it installed without error. Probably
it was Remote Desktop.lnk. I was getting the problem on 2 different computers.
Way to go Microsoft! Now I can't even move around my shortcuts without breaking stuff :)

Hi Gary,
I have seen this issue occur with users who have this registry setting missing or have improper permissions.
When you double click the attachment to launch the pdf it is saved and opened from the temporary folder unless saved specifically to a location.
If you dont have the below mentioned registry key or improper permissions then attachments fail to open.
Please heck if the following reg key exists:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Security
or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Security
Value Name: OutlookSecureTempFolder
If the value exists, and if the value contains a valid path, Outlook 2010 uses that location for its temporary files.
If the registry value does not exist, or if the value points to an invalid location, Outlook 2010, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2003 creates a new subdirectory under the Temporary Internet Files directory and then puts the temporary file in the new subdirectory. The name of the new subdirectory is unknown and is randomly generated, depending on your version of Outlook.
Please check the following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Security
Note the location for: OutlookSecureTempFolder key
Check if the same folder exists in the following location and if not create a corresponding folder in the location on C:\Users\<User account name>\Appdata\Local\Software\Microsoft\Windows\......

Outlook 2010 - sending mail with attachment - "The system cannot find the file specified"

Hi forum Fellows,
I have the following failure scenario:
1. A user receives an e-mail with an attachment.
2. The user opens the attachment --> Forwards the mail and writes something in the body of the e-mail
3. For whatever reason the user leaves the e-mail and works on something else --> the user comes back to the e-mail an hour or more later.
4. The user then wants to send the e-mail but gets the following error message: "The system cannot find the file specified"
5. The effect is that the user cannot send the e-mail.....
------------------------------ TROUBLESHOOTING -----------------------
- I can see that when the user opens an attachment this attachment is saved in the OutlookTemp folder. Actually, there is a difference between opening the attachment before or after clicking forward on the e-mail.
---- Before: Two files is written to the OutlookTemp folder. For example if the attachment name is FileX.pdf - there will be a FileX.pdf but also a FileX (2).pdf in the folder (if OutlookTemp is empty/do not contain a file with the name FileX.pdf already)
---- After: Only one file is written to OutlookTemp. That is FileX.pdf
- Running Process Monitor when trying to forward the e-mail I can see that Outlook is calling a file that is not in the OutlookTemp folder anymore.
**** To me this is the heart of the issue. For some reason, when a user has an e-mail with an attachment open for an extended period of time (not sure on exactly how long is necessary), files in the OutlookTemp folder is deleted - files that Outlook is depending
on to be there.
- Going with a totally clean OutlookTemp folder does not help.
------------------ NOW WHAT ---------------
- The question now is: Is this by design? Can it be fixed by some Outlook 2010 patch? Or perhaps a group policy/registry setting as a workaround.
------------------------------ TECH. INFO -----------------------

Hello Red Baron,
Although not a complete answer, the way to treat attachments in emails require some discipline:
1. Never open an attachment directly from the email (and NEVER edit it from there). Always save it in a known location as the desktop or (better) in a designated document folder. Then you can proceed as usual, like editing the contents, printing, forwarding
the new version etc.
2. Directly forwarding the attachment is ok, along with additional text in the body of the email.
3. Having any (unsaved) document open for several hours should
never occur. What if there is a power outage?
Bottom line is thus Discipline. This is regardless of Operating System (which might handle temporary files differently).
These are the rules I teach my customers and they never leave any document unsaved for hours ...
Best regards George

I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9

I'm having trouble saving my file in adobe acrobat pro 9. When I attempt to save I get message saying,"Bad File Handle". There are several pictures on this file I'm trying to save...dont know if that has anything to do with the problem, just thought it would be helpful information. Would really appreciate any insight anyone has to offer.
Thanks in advance

I am having a similar problem with a simple pdf form. I have made several changes to the pdf and when I go to save, I get the message that I can't save the file due to a "bad file handle." I have opened, altered, saved, and closed the form several times before, just not now. No one else was working on the form. The file format is still a pdf and nothing has changed.

Error: "The system cannot find the file specified" when trying to print to PDF w/ Acrobat 9.5

I get an Error: "The system cannot find the file specified" when trying to print to PDF w/ Acrobat 9.5 using Windows 7. This just started happening after upgrading to MS 2013 suite and also installed Adobe Reader at that same time.
I had problems in the past when Reader was installed with Acrobat, so I uninstalled Reader, but the problem still seems to occur.
any help would be appreciated.

I cannot print a PDF from Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader with Mavericks!

I cannot print a PDF from Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader. I tried on both MacBook Pros we have here, both now with Mavericks. Error message says "Opening printer connection failed. Unable to open printer connection . . . " This is after it says sending data, printing, shows the percentages etc., but then at the end I get the error message above. I can print a PDF (same one) from Preview, but not from Acrobat! What's going on? Never had this issue before Mavericks . . . Please help.

RSAT won't install on Windows 8.1 Pro - "The system cannot find the file specified."

Please help. RSAT won't install on Windows 8.1 Pro. Every time I try, I get the same error - "The system cannot find the file specified.". I really don't want to have to refresh the PC to get it working! I've installed the update successfully on
a fresh win 8.1 enterprise install on a Hyper-V VM.
I am in uk, so have installed the en-US language pack first. I did have a windows component store corruption but I've managed to fix that.
event log says:
Windows update "Update for Windows (KB2693643)" could not be installed because of error 2147942402 "The system cannot find the file specified." (Command line: ""C:\Windows\system32\wusa.exe"

CBS log (C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log): http://1drv.ms/19CAv14

As Roger Lu reported, the log indicates that there is corruption in the update files that you downloaded. The log actually reports “file not found”, so you may also want to check permissions on the extracted files in C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download\76ecaa86ec6712300c2d71cbcdad378c\.
You can also re-try downloading the files to see if your original download was just corrupt.

It was a permissions issue! Thanks so much Bruce!
I checked the permissions for the folder mentioned above and TrustedInstaller only had List Folder Contents and Special Permissions. So I granted granted Read & Execute to TrustedInstaller and tried installing again...
1) double clicked the installer.
2) once it said Initialisation was complete, I checked the permissions again and it had re-set them to as before, so I granted Read & Execute to TrustedInstaller again
3) Installation was successful.
Not really sure why this happened as it doesn't make sense but it's working now :-)

I can't use thunderbird 31.2.0 to send attachement from a pdf file with Acrobat PRO XI

I can't use thunderbird 31.2.0 (Mozilla) to send attachement from a pdf file with Acrobat PRO XI. Each time, Acrobat replies (in french) : "il n'y a pas de client pour la messagerie par défaut". Thunderbird is indicated as "by default" in the list of programs of Windows.
Even if I type my e-mail address, etc. in the account of Acrobat, it doesn't change. Each time, I have to record a PDF file in a folder and return to Thunderbird to send it as attached. It is a too long process, compared with Windows XP with Acrobat Reader or Acrobat 5, I had before.
Would you please help me to explain the process. My OS is Windows 8.1.
Thank you

Thank you for your answer.
What i want to do : to send PDF files as attached documents in a message
generated by thunderbird by my e-mail address [email protected] or
another one I have.
When I introduce my e-mail address under Edit-Preferences-Email
Accounts, Acrobat ask the e-mail account, the password, the IMAP for
ingoing message (and I use POP) and SMTP for outgoing messages. Even I
introduce all the datas, it doesn't change, Acrobat is unable to send
the message. And the process is not convenient, because I need all my
outgoing messages be documented inside Thunderbird.
So, I repeat my request : how can I use thenderbird as program by
default from Acrobat or any other software ?
Thank you for your next message.

Inter-book links not working files generated with Acrobat 9 Pro

Dear All,
We're using TCS 2.5 and generating PDF using Acrobat Pro Extended 9 from our FM 9 guides. We have many links between guides and these links no longer work. Now only the xrefs within a guide work.
We have the same relative paths for the FM guides and PDF and keep all the guides open when generating them and when generating the PDFs.
The links appear active (acrobat displays the little hand) but when you click the link nothing happens.
We have no problems using FM 9 with Distiller 7, but we've upgraded to TCS on some machines and this is where we're having this problem (on machines with Acrobat Pro Extended 9). Does anyone know if this is a bug? or a conversion setting that we don't know about?
Thank you for any help or suggestions you can provide!
Regards,
Susanne

I've found that down loading the PDF file to the Nook and using Acrobat reader allows the links to work, however this is way cumbersome, any way to work on files directly on Acorbat.com?
