Does Adobe Reader clean up PDFs while displaying?

Hi ,
I have a PDF which I opened in Adode viewer and KPDF in linux. When opened in Adobe the PDF appeared much cleaner, bleed-through has been removed. In KPDF I am still seeing bleed-through and some other noise in the same PDF. Can someone please tell me whether Adobe reader auto-cleans the PDF while displaying and if yes, is there a way to disable it? Thanks in advance.

Thank you. I tried that but still it is not disabling the clean-up. The PDF when opened in Adobe is still cleaned up compared to when the file is opened in KPDF.
Thanks,
Sham

    What version of Reader in what OS? Does the program open? What happens when you use File->Open to open a pdf file on your computer? Any error messages?

    I solved the problem. I used Internet Explorer, 64-bit. If I use Internet Explorer 32-bit the PDF-file displays in browser. If I use Internet Explorer 64-bit Adobe Reader X opens the PDF-file outside browser.

  • Does Adobe Reader for iOS have the ability to open inbedded links to additional PDF docs?  If not, then what would be the best way to use these already created PDF's?

    Does Adobe Reader for iOS have the ability to open inbedded links created with Acrobat Standard to additional PDF docs?  If not, then what would be the best way to use these already created PDF's on an I Pad?

    driddy61,
    As of June 2014, none of the Adobe Reader mobile products support the hyperlink action for opening a separate PDF document.
    Adobe Reader for iOS
    Adobe Reader for Android
    Adobe Reader Touch for Windows 8
    In addition, the Reader mobile products do not open multiple windows/documents simultaneously, which would make the navigation between PDF documents nearly impossible. (Once a hyperlink takes you to a different PDF document, you have no way to go back to the original PDF document.)
    The only Adobe Reader product that fulfills your department's requirements is Adobe Reader XI (mostly for Windows/Mac desktop/laptop computers).  Acrobat Pro and Standard are paid products.
    Because you are in search of a less expensive device for your department, you could get a Windows tablet instead of a Windows desktop/laptop computer. Microsoft Surface Pro (that you've mentioned in your previous reply) is just one example.  You can also find other less expensive Windows tablets.
    Tablets
    However, please keep in mind that there are two different types of Windows tablets running two different operating systems.
    (a) A Windows tablet with an Intel-based processor running Windows 8.1 Pro
    Example: Surface Pro 3
    You can install and run traditional desktop apps (e.g. Adobe Reader XI) and new Windows Store apps ("Modern" or "Metro-style" apps).
    (b) A Windows tablet with an ARM-based processor running Windows RT 8.1
    Example: Surface 2
    You can only install and run Windows Store apps (e.g. Adobe Reader Touch) but not traditional desktop apps like Adobe Reader XI.
    In general, type (b) tablets are more affordable than type (a) tablets.  However, if you want to run Adobe Reader XI, you do need to check the technical specification of each tablet and make sure the following conditions are met.
    Processor: Intel
    Operating system:  Windows 8/8.1 or Windows 8/8.1 Pro, not RT
    Hope this helps you choose the right device for your department.  Please let us know if you have any questions about system requirements or supported features in the Adobe Reader products.

  • Adobe Reader XI enterprise deploy-disable display PDF in browser?

    There appears to be conflicting information about Adobe Reader XI and how to pre-configure the "disable display pdf in browser".
    The Enterprise Administration Kit/Guide says you can do this via the MSI Property:
    DISABLE_BROWSER_INTEGRATION = YES
    However, acrobat help, indicates you can ONLY do this manually via individual browser add-ons.
    I have the redestributable version from Adobe and I used the Enterprise Guide to make the AIP and used the Customization Wizard to create the package and am using the properties line when the msi is installed to disable the display
    so which one is right?

    I am out of the office until 1/22/13.

  • Adobe Reader DC, doesn't disable "Display PDF Document in the web browser" when option is unchecked.

    The option under Accessibility>Setup Assistanct to uncheck the "Display PDF Document in the web browser" doesn't correctly disable Display PDF in browser when unchecked, it still defaults to opening in Internet Explorer even after restarting the browser.  Confirmed this tested agianst with IE 8, 9, 10 and 11 with the same behavior.  Moving back to Reader 11.0.10 and using this same setting works flawlessly.  Anyone else experiencing this issue?

    Why does Adobe Reader change my icons to pdf?

    For the "why", you'd have to ask Adobe. If you are looking for a solution, this may be helpful:

  • Adobe Reader Shortcut Icons don't display properly

    Uninstalled and reinstalled latest version. Recently used program list on XP Home S3 Start Menu doesn't display Adobe logo and neither does Adobe Reader 9 shortcut on All Programs. PDF shortcuts display properly.
    Tried to search knowledge base and found no relevant articles. I can't believe you have to buy support for Adobe products.
    Thanks

    You can use Properties | Change Icon to adjust the icons on shortcuts.  Unfortunately this has to be done on each shortcut itself; it will not adjust all of them automatically.

  • Does Adobe Reader for iPad save annotations by/in itself (once uploaded from e.g. dropbox)

    Does Adobe Reader for iPad save annotations by/in itself (once uploaded from dropbox I can still see them after closing the app or switching documents)? I lost some valuable annotations while switching documents and apps over time. How do I save them? Only by sending it to dropbox for instance?

    It saves the file when:
    1) The app goes to background
    2) A share action (open in, email, print) occurs
    3) A form submit occurs
    4) You close the document by going to "Home" or "Documents", or open another document
    One issue that people encounter is that they open the file in a reader that does not support annotations (like the dropbox PDF view or the iOS Mail app). It doesn't sound like this is the case for you though, since you do see the annotations.
    There is a known issue, where on a small number of documents with specific properties, we fail to save changes. This is an issue that we have fixed and will be in our next release. The release is currently pending approval by Apple. It's possible that you encountered this issue, and if so, I apologize.

  • "Cannot use adobe reader to view pdf in your web browser" error in Windows 7 and Acrobat pro 8.1.7

    I get the error "Cannot use adobe reader to view pdf in your web browser.  Reader will now exit.  Please exit your browser and try again" in Windows 7 x32 and Windows 7 x64 with Acrobat pro 8.1.7.  This happens when trying to open  a PDF file in Internet explorer 8.0.760 or when I open a PDF in Quickbooks 2008.  If I answer ok or cancel the file opens normally.  If I open acrobat 8 first then the pdf files open as expected.  I also tried a copy of Acrobat reader with no difference in the outcome.  Since this happens on two different computers one fresh copy of windows 7 x64 the other an upgrade to windows 7 x32 and they used to work before the change to windows 7, I assume there is some kind of incompatibility with windows 7 and acrobat.  Is this a known issue and will it be fixed in an update to acrobat in the near future?

    tvandersluijs - I'm sorry if that screwed up your machine however:
    1. What version of Adobe Reader are you using because as you can see the registry entry is for Adobe Reader 9, if ur using Adobe Reader 8 then u need to specify ur version as PAllens entry suggested - "E.g. "C:\Program files\Adobe\Acrobat [version]\Reader\AcroRd32.exe""
    2. I've used this solution significantly because I have come across this specific issue for multiple users.
    3. All the registry entry does is tell Windows what program to use by default to open/view PDF documents.
    My intention wasn't to screw up ur machine or anybody elses as I said I've used this solution many times however what I've should gave is the disclaimer to backup ur registry before u make mods so u can revert back in case. Also the ony other thing I can think of is that this solution was for Windows XP using registry editior 5, I'm noticing that the title of this thread is Windows 7.

  • Dev question: how to prevent Adobe Reader from copying pdfs to "Download/Adobe Reader"?

    I am making an app that downloads pdf files from a server and the users can decide to store them in the phone. Those files are kept in the app's private storage.
    The pdf files can be opened from inside the app. The problem is that every time a pdf is opened, adobe reader copies it in "Download/Adobe Reader" (the path may be different depending on the device and the android version). Those pdf files should not be available from outside my app. How can I prevent adobe reader from creating copies in that folder? Do I really have to make my app track them down and delete them? It wouldn't be the safest solution...
    In order to open the files, I se up a content provider:
    from the manifest:
    <provider
        android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
        android:authorities="com.example.myapp.fileprovider"
        android:exported="false"
        android:grantUriPermissions="true" >
        <meta-data
            android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
            android:resource="@xml/filepaths" />
    </provider>
    And then, in a method, I do this:
    File pdfToRead = new File(pdfPath);
    Uri uri = FileProvider.getUriForFile(context, "com.example.myapp.fileprovider", pdfToRead);
    for (ResolveInfo resolveInfo : appsList) {
        String packageName = resolveInfo.activityInfo.packageName;
        context.grantUriPermission(packageName, uri, Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
    openPDF(context, uri);
    public static final void openPDF(Context context, Uri localUri) {
        Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
        i.setDataAndType(localUri, PDF_MIME_TYPE);
        context.startActivity(i);
    Thanks for the help.

    Meh, I just hoped there was a way to tell acrobat "don't create a copy of the file because it's private". For now, I'm detecting the "downloads/Adobe Reader" folder, look if there's the file that was opened and delete it.
    Now I need to know something that I can't ask on stackoverflow: what paths does Adobe Reader use to create the "Adobe Reader" folder? Because not every device has an external sd card (external, not removable. Just for clarity). In my device it's at "Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS)+"/Adobe Reader".

  • Why does Adobe Reader do not print in English on my computer ?

    I go a e-mail from honeywell company with an attachment.  Why does Adobe Reader transform the e-mail from English to some other languge?

    Hi Margaret,
    I'd like to help! Would you mind sharing a bit more detail? What language does it appear to be? Has this happened with other PDF's? When you installed it - did you select English as the language?
    Looking forward to your response.
    Kind regards, Stacy

    why does Adobe Reader window open When i click on "about windows Media Player" , then click  on "Technical support information". if the file isnt a PDF file then why is Adobe Reader even summoned?

    i looked at Adobe file extensions first and didnt find htm among the ones listed. but then i looked at file extensions and what program is assigned to open htm and sure enough Adobe was assigned to it. i changed it. thank you.

  • Does Adobe Reader have a "recognize text" tool?

    Does Adobe Reader have a "recognize text" tool, or do I have to buy a version to get this feature? What is the least expensive version that offers this feature? My goal to have PDF version text documents that can be read by a text to speech application, like EZ PDF Reader.

    Definitely not in Reader. I believe (though cannot personally confirm) that Acrobat Standard has it.
    Bear in mind that you need good quality originals, well scanned, to get any kind of decent result. Computers are way worse at this than humans.
    Bear in mind too that Recognise Text is only applicable to scanned documents NOT those made from Word or whatever. So if you are making the documents, it is rarely relevant.

  • When will Adobe Reader support interactive PDF elements on iOS?

    When will Adobe Reader support interactive PDF elements on iOS? I don't want to hear the line that Apple won't allow Flash. Adobe needs to get a workaround PRONTO! We need detection of simple buttons and support for Mp4 and f4v - as exported inline by inDesign when creating PDFs.

    Pat Willener, Thank you for your message. I have done what you suggest. I could have sworn I started this topic in the general Adobe Reader discussion. So I have also placed a copy back where I thought I first had it so it can be found by other Windows users who, like me, are creating PDF files because they are meant to comply with an international cross-platform standard and not simply be the domain of one platform over the other.
    *******Enhancement / FMR*********
    Brief title for your desired feature: Support for interactive PDFs
    How would you like the feature to work? When I add a transparent frame containing a  basic Adobe Media encoded mp4 or f4v video, export to interactive PDF from Adobe InDesign, I want the PDF and its interactive videos to work on iPads. See an example file here: ***EXAMPLE PROVIDED***  Click the lefthand top and bottom corners to bring up interactive video elements which should open in floating window, maximized, then have an exit button to close and continue reading the PDF. Of course, this does not function under Adobe Reader for iOS. You also need to attend to audio files embedded in the same way and allow an exit button to close the audio window so the reader can continue reading the PDF on Windows.
    Why is this feature important to you? I create eReaders for schools across the whole country and they are taking up iPads at an unprecedented rate. If Adobe do not produce a solution for interactive PDFs on iOS then I will no longer use InDesign, Acrobat, Adobe Media Encoder or Photoshop to create works in the future. You're looking at a massive education market that will leave Adobe behind if this is not acted upon very very soon. For some publishers it's already too late and they have moved to app based creation tools.
