Embedded pdf displays on top of my dropdown menu

I have a dropdown menu and some of my content is displayed via an embedded pdf.  The client really does not want an extra window to have to open for this .. very clunky.  I have spent the better part of my weekend trying to solve this problem .. z-index doesn't do it .. iframes do not do it .. nothing I have found that is supposed to work has actually worked. 
Finally I find this:
Adobe PDF documents are not indexable. It is impossible to get any web content (including drop down menus) to display on top of these objects. Until Adobe adds a means of displaying web content over embedded PDF files, the PDF or the web content (in your case, menu) will need to be repositioned. Or alternatively, you can have the PDF document open inside of a new window. Unfortuantely, there are no other options available due to the way Adobe renders PDF files inside of web pages.
True?  If so .. why?  If there is a solution to this, please do share. 
Thanks!
Nancy

I just solved this problem myself (I think).
First, make sure you have updated your spry to 1.6. Once you
do that, then find the "hacker" info at the bottom of the menu code
that creates an iframe behind your menu bar--the background is set
to white--change to transparent and should solve your problem.
Or you can change the javascript for menu bars (under
spryassests for spry menu bars)--there is part of the code that
says this.createIframelayer(menu)--if you comment out this by
placing // before it in the code, the white background goes away.
However, I would recommend trying updating first and not messing
with the javascript as it will affect how your menu looks in older
IE versions.

  • Acrobat X Displaying Embedded PDF at full / 100% zoom

    Hi
    I have embedded a pdf onto my page here http://www.entirefilingbankruptcy.com/bankruptcy-exemptions/alabama/ but it is shrunk too small.
    The source pdf is also shrunken - http://www.entirefilingbankruptcy.com/bankruptcy-exemptions/alabama-exemptions.pdf
    Could someone please point out how to have the PDF display at its full size (1020 x 540)?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Which browser are you testing with? In my testing, the PDF appears small in Google Chrome when using Google Chrome's built-in PDF viewer:
    When testing with Firefox using the Adobe Acrobat plugin, the PDF fits the width of the viewable area:
    It appears as though Google Chrome's built-in PDF viewer displays PDFs at 100% zoom by default. The page size of the example PDF is actually 1.70in x 2.11in, so when displayed at 100% zoom it appears quite small.
    I don't know of any way to control the default zoom level when the PDF is being displayed by Google Chrome's built-in PDF viewer.
    Regards,
    Brian

  • PDF displays incorrectly within embedded web frame

    pdf files in an embedded frame using iframe tag display incorrectly in Firefox V.22 and earlier;
    On opening the webpage, the pdf is displayed too large.
    The pdf displays correctly only after refreshing or reloading the webpage.
    In Internet Explorer, Safari and Chrome, the pdf displays correctly when one first views the page.
    I have already reset Firefox to use Adobe Acrobat plugin. The scaling still works only after reset.

    Make sure your not Zoomed the PDF File
    Hit > CTRL + 0 (zero) for Normal view,
    Try to use the In-built PDF Viewer

  • Embedded pdf in a tab - won't display in ie and crashes Foxfire

    http://testtp.trempeprotocol.com/ManagingAging.html
    please advise
    thank you

    I'm sorry but I don't have any problem with the embedded pdf on the managing aging page using FF 3.6.12.  I went to managing aging>measuring aging and the embedded PDF showed up fine.
    I too would not use an embedded but, as a novice web person, my advice may not be the best.  I also tend to embed a gif or jpg instead (as the eye grabber) and have it link to the actual pdf.
    For what it's worth (as feedback) I found the .jpg at the top left to be distracting because it looks like the two words overlap.  I also noticed that the :hover over the left nav entries has a different height than the non-hover which is also distracting.  The speaking engagements link also wraps on hover.  Again, not being critical, just some feedback.

  • Embedded PDF on web page fails to display

    We have a number of PDFs that are shown embedded in IE (versions vary).  This worked fine with Adobe Reader 9.5 but with 10, PDF fails to display. 
    Page takes a while to report error.  Error:
    There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader.  If it is running, please exit and try again.  (103:103)
    I found a few other discussion similar to this in the forum but didn't find a definitive root cause. 
    In our situation, we found that if the user launching the web page runs Adobe Reader as standalone first, the error doesn't happen. 
    While workaround exists, I am trying to understand the root cause to see if we can correct this for all the users in automated manner instead of
    mandating launching of Reader standalone as a prerequite step.  Quite a few users using this web app.
    Since launching of Reader standalone works, my guess is that some config/setup is done only after first use.  I see that, for example,
    reg keys are added under HKCU on first use.  I don't know why first use from browser differs from first use from standalone though.  Difference in
    reg access?  Enable/Disable browser plug-in produces different behavior so I don't think the setting is on the browser side.  What other factors
    may be in play here?
    All ideas welcome.  Thanks in advance.

    Got a couple follow up questions.  Postiing the response here.
    1.  Please send us step by step method on how to recreate the problem, and the URL of the PDF file that shows the issue.
    * Write a simple console application that does nothing but starting a browser. Browser URL set to any web site with embedded PDF. I believe I used a sample on Adobe's site for last test.
    2. Is everyone in your company experiencing the same issue?
    * Yes, everyone can be affected.
    3. Does the error show up on any PDF or just the embedded PDF?
    * Only embedded.
    4. Does the problem occur with Firefox?
    * Not browser specific.
    5. Do you have any other version of Reader or Acrobat installed on the same system?
    * No, clean test box. Tested with 10.0.0 first. Failed. Then cleaned up install and installed 10.1.3. Cannot repro with 9.5.
    Root cause appears to be Protected Mode. If I disable that, it works.

  • IWeb • How Do I Make Links in an Embedded PDF Document Open in New Page?

    On this page http://ostyn-newman.com/Gov_Downloads.html I have a PDF document that is embedded.  I tried an IFrame, but everything seemed to work better for me with the "Embed" code.  I am open to changing this if it would be better.  Here's my problem.  I can get the PDF document to display fine, but when I click on the links in the PDF document, the destination page opens in the embedded window.  I want the links to open the destination in a new window.
    I created the part of the document with most of the links (Pages 8.5 - 56) in Numbers and cut and pasted the table into a Pages document to create the completed document on our site.  I exported the docuemnt from Pages as a PDF file which is what you see.  There is also a link to download the file on the same page which works just fine.
    I have tried to insert the target="_blank" code but have not been able to get it to open the destination pages in a new window.  I am inserting the code by using the Insert/Widget/HTML Snippet Feature in IWeb.  Here is the code I am using.
    <embed src=
    "http://ostyn-newman.com/Media/GS27F0026XTextfile.pdf"
    style="width:850px; height:1000px;
    border-width:0px;
    border-color:#FFCC66;
    border-style:solid;"
    scrolling="auto" >
    </embed>
    I am not a coder and have just used Google to find the code to cut and paste and have played around with it to get to the place I am.  If anybody can tweak the code I have or offer some totally new code for me to insert that will get this to work would be greatly appreciated.
    Please keep in mind that most of the people who visit and use this page are government employees and are almost exclusivey using Explorer. 

    Thank you Jeff,
    I tried your original suggestion and now my inserted html widget reads
    <embed src=
    "http://ostyn-newman.com/Media/GS27F0026XTextfile.pdf"
    style="width:850px; height:1000px;
    border-width:0px;
    border-color:#FFCC66;
    border-style:solid;"
    scrolling="auto" target="_blank">
    </embed>
    It is live on my site.  You can see that the embedded document still opens the destination links in the embedded window.
    As for your other two suggestions, thank you as well.  I am aware of those techniques and did not use them because that is not how I want the other PDF links on the page to behave.  The catalog and autocad blocks downloads in the box at the top should simply download (or behave however the client's browser is configured to handle downloaded PDF documents or zip files.)  I don't intend to force those to open a new window.  I could also have our client click on a link to the PDF document and open it in a new page (like in your second suggestion) but I was hoping to embed the PDF and have it automatically viewable on our Download • Terms • Prices Page with all of the PDF search functions intact as well as the links be active.  My only complaint at this point is that the links in the embedded PDF document open the destination page in the embed window instead of a new window.  I only want to force a new window because the destination window doesn't behave properly when it opens in my embed window and it is difficult to figure out how to go back to the my PDF document when a destination window gets opened in the embed window.  The code you sent didn't do the trick.  Or maybe I didn't get it exactly right.  That is why I included it above.  Thanks for trying though.  I appreciate the effort.
    I would be willing to bypass the imbed/iFrame route altogether if I could just somehow drop the Pages document into the IWeb page and retain the search and link features, but I've not been able to figure out how to do that.  When I was exploring how to directly drop a Pages document into an IWeb page is when I stumbled on the method of embedding a PDF document into an IWeb page to retain the important search and link features.

  • Can I open embedded PDF documents in a PDF file on an iPad or Android?

    Not sure if first post got through, the forum required me to change password ...
    So I'm trying to open embedded PDF documents in a "parent" PDF document on an iPad. 
    On a PC the file opens fine.
    On an iPad 2 with Adobe's Reader the same file says it's corrupted.
    On PDF Pro the file opens, I can see the listing of embedded PDF documents but when I click on them nothing happens.
    Is there a way for a PDF file with embedded hyperlinked PDF documents to be displayed on an iPad or Android?

    pages on the iOS has access only to the camera roll to embedd pictures , but no external files.
    Content from other documents like pdf can be copied and pasted by using Adobe Reader for iOS or the iBooks.app, open the pdf , copy text , then go to pages.app and paste text into the document there.

    Install the latest update of Reader or Acrobat (done, no effect)
    Adobe releases free security updates quarterly. It is important to update your version of Reader or Acrobat to the latest release. The updates often include fixes to common problems. Download the latest free update:
    Note: Microsoft Windows 7 requires Adobe Reader 9.2 or later.
    1.      Open Reader or Acrobat.
    2.      Choose Help > Check for Updates. If a new update is available, it installs automatically.
    3.      Once installed, restart your computer.

      Hold down the Shift key and press the    Refresh or    Reload button in the browser.
    Try to view a different PDF (done, no effect)
    Try viewing a different PDF. For example, see if this sample form<http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Samples/flatform.pdf> displays in your browser.(DOES NOT OPEN) If Acrobat or Reader can open the sample form, then the other PDF could be damaged or the web server could be having problems.

    Problem with the browser or its settings?
    Use a different web browser  (Pdf'S open in alternate browsers)
    Certain conditions on your computer, such as security settings or browser cookies, can prevent you from viewing a PDF. Often, the fastest solution is to try to open the page using a different browser. Try any of the following browsers that you have not already tried:
    Mozilla Firefox<http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/>
    Microsoft Internet Explorer<http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/default.aspx>
    Apple Safari<http://www.apple.com/safari/download>
    For a list of compatible browsers for Reader and Acrobat X, see this list of Compatible web browsers<http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/compatible-web-browsers-pdfmaker-applications.html>.
    Switch to Compatibility View (Internet Explorer) (done, no effect)
    Some websites display better in the Compatibility View of Internet Explorer. The Compatibility View displays a page as if it was an earlier version of the browser. For instructions on how to switch to this view, see one of these documents on the Microsoft website:

    Restart your computer and try opening the PDF again (done, no effect)
    Restart your computer, then open the web page again. Restarting clears the computer memory and memory cache. It is surprising how often simply restarting your computer resolves a display issue.
    Delete temporary Internet files (Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Chrome) (done, no effect)
    Clear the browser cache (sometimes called 'temporary Internet files') to ensure that you are viewing a fresh version of the page. When you open a web page, the browser saves a temporary copy so that it opens more quickly next time. You want to force the browser to load the entire page directly from the server, rather than displaying a stored copy.
    Reset the Display PDF In Browser preference (done, no effect)
    1.      In Reader or Acrobat, right-click the document window, and select Page Display Preferences.
    2.      From the list at left, select Internet.
    3.      Deselect Display PDF In Browser, and then click OK.
    4.      Choose Edit > Preferences > Internet, select Display PDF In Browser, and then click OK.
    5.      Try to open the PDF again from the website.
    View PDF in 32-bit version of Internet Explorer or Safari (done, no effect)
    Acrobat and Reader are 32-bit applications on Windows. If you try to open a PDF in a 64-bit version of Internet Explorer, the PDF opens in stand-alone Acrobat or Reader, not in Internet Explorer.

  • Cannot Save or Print Embedded PDFs From IE9

    I have a machine that is having difficulty saving or printing embedded PDF’s from web pages. Embedded meaning that the PDF is displayed in a reader window, within a web page. I am able to view the PDF without any problem however if I try and click the Save button, nothing happens. If I try to print the PDF, the browser crashes.
    This is a Windows 7 32-bit machine with IE 9 installed. I am also using Acrobat Pro 10.1.2. I have tried repairing Acrobat without any success, as well as uninstalling/reinstalling without any success. I am able to open PDF documents stored locally as files without any problem, and I am also able to open PDF documents from other websites that are simply links without any problem. I have tried disabling the Display PDF is Browser setting, but that only produces a red X in the placeholder for the embedded PDF. I get the same results if I log into this computer as another user. I have other computers with identical software installed that are working just fine without a problem.
    Anyone else having problems saving embedded PDF documents from websites? I am stumped as to why this happens or how to fix it.

    I am having a similar issue only with ADP pay statements that are embedded.  I have tried to uninstall, reinstall, installed Adobe XI, installed an older version.  When we click print first the reader crashes and then IE9 crashes.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • [Bug Report] CR4E V2: Exported PDF displays Japanese characters incorrectly

    We now plan to transport a legacy application from VB to Java with Crystal Reports for Eclipse. It is required to export report as PDF file, but result PDFs display Japanese characters incorrectly for field with some mostly used Japanese fonts (MS Gothic & Mincho).
    Here is our sample Crystal Reports project:   [download related resources here|http://sites.google.com/site/cr4eexportpdf/example-of-cr4e-export-pdf]
    1. PDFExportSample.rpt located under ..\src contains fields with different Japanese fonts.
    2. Run SampleViewerFrameClient#main(..) to open a Java Report Viewer:
        a) At zoom rate 100%, everything is ok.
        b) Change zoom rate to 200% or 50%, some fields in Japanese font collapse.
        c) Export to PDF file,
             * Fonts "MS Gothic & Mincho": both ASCII & Japanese characters failed.
             * Fonts "Meiryo & HGKyokashotai": everything works well.
             * Open PDF properties, you will see all fonts are embedded with built-in encoding.
             * Interest to note that copy collapsed Japanese characters from Acrobat Reader, then
               paste them into a Notepad window, Notepad will show the correct Japanese characters anyway.
               It seems PDF export in CR4E mistaking to choose right typeface for Japanese characters
               from some TTF file.
    3. Open PDFExportSample.rpt in Crystal Report 2008 Designer (trial version), and export it as PDF.
        The result PDF displays both ASCII & Japanese characters without any problem.
    Test environment as below:
    * Windows XP Professional SP3 (Japanese) with MS Office which including extra fonts (i.e. HGKyokashotai)
    * Font version: MS Gothic, Mincho, Meiryo, all in Version 5.0
        You can download MS Meiryo from Microsoft's Site:
        http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=F7D758D2-46FF-4C55-92F2-69AE834AC928&displaylang=en)
    * Eclipse 3.5.2
    * Crystal Reports for Eclipse, V2, 12.2.207.r916
    Can this problem be fixed? If yes how long will it take to release a patch?
    We really looking forward to a solution before abandoning CR4E.
    Thanks for any reply.

    I have created a [simple PDF file|http://sites.google.com/site/cr4eexportpdf/inside-the-pdf/simple.pdf?attredirects=0&d=1] exported from CR4E. It is expected to display "漢字" (or in unicode as "\u6F22\u5B57"), but instead being rendered in different ones of "殱塸" (in unicode as "\u6BB1\u5878").

  • PDF hides dropdown menu

    This issue is similar to issue 510902 in this forum. On our website we have a Dropdown listed in a table and then we pull in PDF files into the body of the page which is setup like a frame. However, when a PDF is being pulled in (not using any target) the dropdown menu hides behind the PDF. I have tried setting the PDF in an IFrame and the same thing takes place. We also have tried placing different targets around the PDF but the same thing happens. I have been reading everywhere where this is an issue but no fix. Does Adobe have an answer to this?
    Thanks,

  • Adobe Reader X and Page Embedded PDFs

    We are experiencing an issue across our corporation wherein, post-upgrade to Adobe Reader X, websites opened with Internet Explorer containing an embedded PDF frame now show a blank box instead of the PDF.  Firefox will display these sites correctly and I have verified Firefox is using the updated Reader X plug-in.  This has been tested across many configurations and behaves consistently in this fashion.  Reversion to Adobe Reader 9 appears to solve the problem, however, this is not a true solution.
    Help?

    This may help a few of you here.
    I'm running IE 8 and Adobe Reader X on a WIN64Bit  system.
    Reader X wouldn't open an embedded  PDF with IE8 64BIT. AR X seems to like an older version of IE.
    Go to your START menu and you should see "Internet Explorer" and "Internet Explore (64-bit)".
    Open a window with the "Internet Explorer", not the (64-bit).
    In the IE8 window you'll see a "?" on the tool bar. Open it and click on "About Internet Explorer".
    You should NOT SEE "64-bit Edition".
    If you don't see "64-Bit Edition", go and try to view the PDF again.
    It works for me and it seems I'll have to live with it until there's a patch for 64-Bit.

  • Embedded PDFs using Reader X

    Hi,
    I am developing a kiosk application that uses Reader X to display PDFs of content embedded in an ASP page.  I've used this application with Reader 9.4 and have used the following embed tag:
    <embed id='pdfDisplay' src='Maps/IDMap1.pdf#toolbar=0&navpanes=0&scrollbar=0&view=fit' width='900' height='600' />
    All the toolbars, navpanes, and scrollbars hide just fine so that the user's access is limited to just viewing the document.  Now, installing Reader X and accessing a PDF hides everything as expected, but going to another page in my application then returning to the page with the embedded PDF and opening the same PDF document shows a floating toolbar on the document, showing buttons for printing, saving the PDF, zoom in/out, and a button to reveal all of the toolbars.  Obviously, this isn't secure or acceptable for a kiosk application to allow the access to the full set of Reader toolbars to the user. I've forced the page with the embedded PDF to do a full refresh when accessing the page, but it still comes up with that floating toolbar.
    Similar behavior occurs on these examples: http://blogs.adobe.com/pdfdevjunkie/2007/08/using_the_html_embed_tag_to_di.html  The second example has everything hidden including the floating toolbar, but refreshing the page brings the floating toolbar back, done in Firefox and IE.
    Something tells me this might be a bug.
    Any ideas?
    TIA.

    Yes it's a bug. The child instance of Adobe Reader (or Acrobat) spawned by the web browser isn't properly reinitialized when you do a page refresh, and it doesn't take account of the "toolbar" parameter being passed as it did the first time it opened. We've known about it for a while, which is why I kinda cheated with my instructions...
    The workaround (as used in said cheat) is to show the navigation pane icons (&navpanes=1), which are mutually exclusive to Read Mode and so force it to shut down - this works reliably no matter what you do with your browser buttons. If you want nothing in your window other than the PDF page and don't want Read Mode to appear on refreshes, then you'll need to switch to full screen mode at the document level until the bug is fixed.

  • Want to generate a report for displaying the top 30 revenue generating regn

    Hi Team
    I was trying to generate top 30 revenue generating regions using " Edit Formula " option (Ofcouse there are other methods to do it , but i was trying out with this one ).
    The scenario is : -
    I have selected four columns i.e Year , Region , Product Type and Revenue.And i wanna display the top 30 revenue generating regions.
    Steps I follwed : -
    1> Selected the 4 columns (Year , Region , Product Type and Revenue )
    2> Arranged the Revnue Column in descending order.
    3> Went to --- > Revenue Column ---> Edit formula (fx) and used the COUNT(*) function.
    i.e select "F1 Revenue"."1-01 Revenue (Sum All)" from "Sample Sales" where COUNT(*) <30

  • When I try to open an embedded PDF file I get an error "The program used to create this object is AcroExch.exe.

    When I try to open an embedded PDF file (Word doc) I get an error "The program used to create this object is AcroExch.exe. That program is either not installed on your computer, or is corrupt..."  I've tried  about everything from unchecking
    protected mode at startup to removing & reinstalling Adobe.  Nothing seems to fix this issue.  Any other ideas?
    This is happening on Adobe reader 9, 10 & 11 with MS Word 2010 & 2013.  I've uninstalled, cleaned & reinstalled Reader 9, 10 & 11, as well as Acrobat 10 Pro & 11 Standard.  Removed "Protected mode at startup, and changed
    the default program for viewing from reader to Acrobat.  This will not go away.  It is affecting production at our company.

    " Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder" . i can't find open containing folder in profile directory. it does give me the option to open the places.sqlite file using graphic converter. when i try that, graphic converter gives me a window saying that it can't be opened because it is corrupted or is not a file type supported by graphic converter.
    i appreciate your help with a workaround to get the old bookmarks. that works. however, the problem has morphed from that concern to why adobe reader [the default app.] won't open firefox .sqlite files. is the problem in adobe reader or firefox? also, how can i tell if the places.sqlite file is corrupt?
    i'm getting in over my head here and do appreciate your help.
