Document background in Adobe Reader

Whenever I open a pdf document in Adobe Reader, the background of the document has a 'chessboard' checker effect, making the text difficult to read. Is there a way to get rid of this effect?

In Acrobat Reader, selct the Edit --> Prefernces.  Select "Page Display" on the left.
Locate the "Page Content and Information" section and uncheck the item "Show Transparency grid".
Click OK and it should be resolved.

  • Why dont i ever see downloaded pdfs in the "documents section" in adobe reader on my ipad?

    Why dont i ever see downloaded pdfs in the "documents section" in adobe reader on my ipad? They only stay in the Acrobat.com section and when I try to move them the "documents" partion is not listed as an option. Only the folders i have within acrobat.com are listed

    The pdfs have been uploaded to Acrobat .com (from my computer) I open the Adobe reader on my ipad and see them in the acrobat partition of the reader. I tap on them and they open.  To test whether they were truly downloaded ,I turn off wifi and they still open. I consider this "downloaded" BUT... they stay in the acrobat.com partition of the reader. Nothing ever goes or lives in the "Documents" partition..nor can I move anything there.....Why not? What is the"documents" partition there for if nothing lives or can be moved there?

    How do I make document folders in adobe reader app on iPad? Thanks

    First show the Documents list, and in the upper left tap the Edit button. A toolbar in the upper left you'll see a folder icon with a + superimposed. Tap that and you'll be prompted to Create a Folder. Enter the folder name and tap the Save button and your new folder will appear in the Documents list.

  • How can I get a passage highlighted in yellow in a word document sent to Adobe Reader?

    How can I get a passage highlighted in yellow in a word document sent to Adobe Reader?

    You can view non-PDF documents, such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, RTF, in Adobe Reader for iOS.  However, you are not able to add comments or edit non-PDF documents in Adobe Reader.
    To open a non-PDF document in other iOS app.
    Tap anywhere in a document to display the toolbar in Adobe Reader.
    Tap the Share icon on the right side of the toolbar.
    Select Open In... from the menu.
    Select an appropriate app to open the document.
    Alternatively, you can convert a Word/Excel/PowerPoint/RTF document to PDF using the paid subscription service called Adobe PDF Pack and add comments to a resultant PDF document.

  • I hate this, now all pdf documents open with Adobe reader x

    Until recently all pdf documents opened nicely with Adobe Acrobat which was installed with the creative suite CS5. Recently I had to update the Acrobat plugin for Firefox and I don't know what exactly was installed but somehow I ended up with Adobe Reader x on my computer and now when I open pdf documents from my hard drive they all open with an Adobe reader which I hate. How that reader managed to install and change my experience without me noticing? Now I have to change file associations. Do I need this reader and what is it for when I have a full version of Acrobat?
    I will greatly appreciate your help.

    Unfortunately, once Reader is installed, uninstalling it will require you to repair your Acrobat installation. You should be able to right click on a PDF and select Open With and set Acrobat as the default. Also, be sure that Reader is not part of the startup of Windows (you can use Start>Run>msconfig to check that) and also open current tasks (ctrl-alt-del) and be sure AcroRd32 or similar file is not running in the background. Be aware that AcroTray is part of Acrobat and is needed for PDF creation.

  • Large document hanging in Adobe Reader 11.0.10 / OSX Yosemite 10.10.2

    I have a 777 page PDF which will open in Adobe Reader 11.0.10, but if I scroll or jump to a page mid-document Reader will hang and display the spinning beach ball indefinitely.  This PDF behaves normally in Windows, but locks up every time on my Mac.  Any advice on what to do?  I have Acrobat XI Pro so I can make changes, I just don't know where to start.
    Thanks.

    Hey Andy,
    Please check if you face the same problem with some other PDF or this particular one.
    Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Reader on your MAC?
    Hope to hear from you.

  • Erreur d'ouverture document pdf avec adobe reader X

    Bonjour,
    J'essaie d'ouvrir un document pdf avec adobe X et j'obtient le message d'erreur suivant : "l'un des nombres spécifiés n'est pas compris dans l'intervalle autorisé", et la première page ne s'affice pas.
    Avec foxite reader le document s'affiche correctement.
    Quelqu'un a t-il déjà rencontré ce soucis?
    Merci de votre aide.

    Lorsque j'ouvre un fichier " .pdf " et j'essaie de le sauvegarder sur le disque dur, j'ai un msg d'erreur dans Safari:
    Document X.PDF peut etre exporter sous le nom x.pdf".
    Même en changeant le name , ca donne le même msg .
    Lorsque j'ouvre cette même page avec Firefox, la fin de l'adresse de la page est grisonner, et une page avec rien d'ecrit , lorsque la recherche de Firefox a fini .
    Alors est t'il possible de rapatrier le moindre fichier .PDF , aussi avec Safari que  Firefox.
    Je suis avec Mac OS X 10.7.4.

  • Print all linked documents (was Re: Adobe Reader X Issues)

    Thanks ahead for your help .

    Are you trying to print to a pdf file with Adobe Reader? Are you viewing a pdf file in Internet Explorer using the Reader plug-in and trying to print to a physical printer?
    In either case the answer is no.

  • Unable to sign a document using latest adobe reader.

    Hi guys,
    I've never had to sign a document using reader before so I'm really lost. I've downloaded the latest adobe reader version and created an adobe account. The form is enabled for reader and signatures as far as I can tell.
    I'm logged in while the file is open but under the right side tab "sign" all the options are grayed out, I also cant just click on the signature box like it mentions in the help vids.
    I've added a screen shot to show you what I mean.
    Thanks guys,
    Mike

    Try updating the software, first? PKCS12 is the latest one.
    Also-- you have to make sure you have a digital ID stored in the computer (or through a server), or you can create one.

  • Comments/Annotations erased after document save in Adobe Reader X

    I have opened a document which contained six comments made by user cmhomer (as seen in the below image).
    While reviewing the document I add additional comments and annoatations.  In the image below you will see 7 comments, one which was made by user cunderw.
    When I am finished and save the document I am prompted with the "Save As" dialogue.  I enter a new file name and complete the Save process.  Once saved I close the document.
    When I open the new document I just saved, the original comments and my comments can no longer be seen (see image below)
    I have tested this process with version 8 of Adobe Reader and it works without any issues.  I have also had three of my co-workers test Adobe Reader X and are having the same problems.
    Any help would greatly be appreciated.
    Chris

    I tested it and it works fine. Are you sure your browser is using the Reader plugin?
    Follow these instructions to make sure:

  • Why won't Safari open PDF-documents after uninstalling Adobe Reader?

    Hi.
    I wonder why Safari won't open a PDF-document after I uninstallet Adobe Reader. Prior to my installation of Adobe Reader, Safari opened PDF's without any diffyculty.
    I've tried to reset Safari but it didn't seem to help at all.
    What do I do?
    Thanks
    Mike

    There might be a residual plug-in interfering with Safari's PDF opening capabilities.
    Installed plug-ins are listed via Safari > Help menu.
    They are located in
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    and
    ~/Library//Internet Plug-ins
    (tilde is home folder)
