Does my pdf file will open in an iphone/ipad?

Hi there.
I'm having a huge problem with pdf.
I have this file I created with acrobat and I have to send it to someone else. The problem is that they told me "please, make sure your pdf will open in a iphone or ipad without fail."
How do I know if it's ocmpatible? I own a windows computer and I don't have an ipad or an iphone.
thank you!

If it's a plain "vanilla" PDF (ie without any form fields, multimedia
elements, scripts, etc.) there should be no problem to open and view it on
an iPad/iPhone (provided there's an app installed that can open it, of
course).

  • Can I open an encrypted pdf file from Dropbox with my iPhone, iPad, or iPad Mini?

    Mac OS 10.9.3 encrypts a pdf file using Acrobat XI, then sends it to Dropbox.  Mobile device retrieves encrypted file from Dropbox.  Then can mobile device user open (unencrypt) the pdf file?

    George, you wrote something that encouraged me to try to encrypt a PDF document again using the security icon on the menu bar of my old Acrobat 8 Professional. It worked this time (it wouldn't encrypt on my first try, and I wrongly assumed that it wasn't compatible with Maverick OS).  I dropped document into Dropbox, retrieved it with mobile devices; and when I tapped on the document, it simply asked for the password and opened perfectly. When moving to a different screen, then back to the secured PDF file, one must re-enter the password again (which is good).
    As far as what PDF viewer -- I don't know.  I have the Acrobat Reader APP on my devices, is that the reader the document is using??  I've never figured out which APPs are running at any particular time on these devices.
    Many, many thanks for your reply!!

  • How do I sync downloaded PDF files in iBooks between my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook Pro?

    I've combed the forums.  I can't sync through iTunes.  These PDF files don't show up.  I've downloaded tech manuals for gear I have via manufacturer's websites.  I can't populate them across my devices.  I have some in iPhone, some on iPad.  I have an iPhone 5, iPad2, and MacBook Pro running current software as of 11:22 AM 13 MAR 2014.  Nothing has worked so far in the standard methods. 
    Help!

    I agree in theory.  
    Apple is very protective of copy written material, but even I have shoe-horned copy written papers into iBooks by using copy & paste.  This is the only reason I can see for the lack of user friendliness in iBooks.   You may have noticed that removing it from iTunes also removed the ability to edit any "get info" content - something I could do when books were within iTunes.
    I like the ePub format.   I can produce a very nice looking book with pictures and it looks great in iBooks.  If I produce it on my Mac and use ePub into iBooks, I can then sync to my devices that way.   For a really nice product this is a great option.
    But.   I can send the same product to Kindle and keep it synced to all devices.   Or I can add to kindle from one of my other devices and get it to sync also.   Obviously I made my choice and it works.
    If you find a route via iBooks, please publish.   Many other Apple users are frustrated by the lack of iBook flexibility since iOS 7 update. 

  • Some but not all saved pdf files will open in Mac Maverick.

    Reader 11.0.7
    Have tried earlier Readers available online but same story- they download OK but saved file won't open.
    error message:
    Senders say no problem with files.
    eg:  http://isailor.us/faq/i/Transas_iSailor_User_Manual.pdf
    Can anyone help?

    The Adobe Reader toolbar appear if you hover the mouse in a PDF being viewed in Safari.
    The link you need to right click on is NOT in the PDF itself. It is on the page BEFORE, the one where you click to view the PDF. Does not always work.

    What is your operating system?  What is your Reader version ("latest" means nothing)?  What exactly means "will not open"?

  • PDF files will not open in a Safari (v 6.0.5) browser window

    PDF files will not open in a Safari (v 6.0.5) browser window, OS 10.8.5. Version 11.0.04 Adobe Reader and Plug-ins installed. Both local and internet files do not load. What is happening here?

    Ok. I reloaded v 11.0.04 of Adobe Reader after quiting Safari 6.0.5 . Then deleted the 2 plug-ins AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin . Relaunched Safari and tried to read a pdf from a repository at the URL mentioned in post 10 . The file was loaded and displayed correctly. Also a pdf file from my local disk store displayed nicely as well. What I do not understand is that there is no listing of an Adobe plug in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins , nor does Safari list any Adobe plug ins. So in that case this means that plug-ins for the display of pdfs in Safari windows are no longer needed!
    Adobe Reader version 11.0.04  is now working for me.
    Thanks for the help and the solution C.F.McBlob

  • Pdf files will not open

    Hi,
    I have viewed through this forum and did not find a problem with similar symptoms.
    I upgraded from Adobe Reader 8 to Reader 9 and then the .pdf files will not open.
    Actions and Observations/Symptoms:
    1)  After I clicked onto the pdf document icon - nothing happens.
    2)  I right click onto the pdf icon and chose "open with Adobe 9" and get the same response.  Nothing happens.
    3)  I go to the the start menu - select Adobe Reader 9 - and the program does not even open.
    =======
    I have since removed Reader 9 and re-installed Reader 8.  I tried the above actions and got the same behaviour.  Not a whole lot happens.  It seems like something is broken after the first initial upgrade.
    In fact - I went to the folder:  
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader  and
    tried to open Reader by double clicking onto "AcroRd32.exe" and there was no response.
    I'm completely lost!  Can anyone share a fix to my problem?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    I can't explain the cause to the problem - but I found two "work-arounds" to get me running again.
    Workaround #1:
    I found another program (and there are many) on the web that will also read .pdf files.  I downloaded  "Foxit Reader" , installed it and it works.  I can now view my pdf docs!
    However - I got so used to Adobe Reader - I really wanted to get Reader working again.
    Workaround #2:
    I re-installed Adobe Reader 8.
    Instead of running the usual Adobe installation script that I got from the web, I copied (from another PC's C-drive)  the "Reader 8.0" folder and all its contents into my current C- drive directory structure  C:\Program Files\Adobe\.
    I re-booted the PC and can now open my pdf files using Reader 8.
    It seems to work - but I don't know what the effects of this installation method will have in the future - or the interaction it will have with other programs.  I guess when I need to remove the program in the future  - I'll have to do it manually, since it doesn't even register in the "Add or Remove Programs" under Control Panel.
    ===============
    Hope this helps out anyone else with similar symptoms.
    In the original problem, it's unfortunate that there were no error messages whatsoever when I tried opening the pdf files.  It was like as if Reader was not even activated or even loaded on my PC.  I'll bug me for a while - but at least I got Reader working again (for now....)!

  • Links in PDF files will be opened in a new browser window?

    Hi all,
    I'm opening PDF files in a browser. I'd really like links in PDF files will be opened in a new window as html. My browsers was configured to allow opening new pages in a new window (FireFox: Tools\Options\Tabs\ New pages should be opened in: New window ;IE 7: Tools\Internet Options\Tabs Settings\Open links from another programs in: A new window)
    Please tell me any additional step I have to done
    Thanks much

    Thank you Bob! We will try out tests again today.

  • PDF FILE WILL NOT WORK OR OPEN ADOBE READER NOT WORKING CORRECTLY.

    PDF FILE WILL NOT OPEN IN A FEW APPLICATIONS AS THEY DID BEFORE. IF I CAN'T VIEW THEM I CAN'T PRINT THEM.

    Hi
    Why wouldn't an Apple file D/L into an Apple browser?
    Likely due there being a non-Apple plugin trying to handle it & failing.
    Look in Home/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ and HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ for any plugins with 'pdf' in the name.
    Remove any you find - either trash or take to the desktop, restart any browsers, then try a pdf.

  • Embedded pdf files will not open

    Dell Laptop Windows XP up to date, Firefox 4.0, Adobe Reader 10.0.1
    Since updating to Firefox 4.0 certain embedded pdf files will not open forcing me to use my Internet Explorer browser to access these files. Tried all of the FAQ suggestions with no relief.
    NOTE: I can open previously opened files (Firefox 3.___) but not a new one.

    Thank you for the response. I insereted several .pdf files into my MS Word document where they show as Acobat icons. When in MS Word, I am able to double-click on the icons and the files open in Acrobat. I then converted the MS Word document to a .pdf. These icons now only show as pictures and do not open the original inserted .pdf documents.

  • Pdf files will not open upon downloading

    I download a lot of pdf docs for work and want them to open automatically upon download so I can screen them.  Since upgrading to Safari 5.1, when I download files (which has gotten much more cumbersome) they do not automatically open upon download.  Yes, I DO have the "open safe files after downloading" option checked in Preferences.  Any other thoughts?  A solution would be most helpful.  (If anyone has a solution to how I can automatically download files as easily as in prior versions, that would be greatly appreciated also.)
