Enabling Comments for PDF and Acrobat Reader

Hello,
We work with remote reviewers and oftentimes we have to enable our PDFs for commenting, since they only have Acrobat Reader. We then get the files back from our remote reviewers, review their suggestions, and then send them the PDFs back. The only main issue is that we HAVE to enable the PDFs for commenting EVERY time. Is there a better way?
Thanks,
Dave O

  • Close both the PDF and Acrobat Reader from Javascript

    Hello,
    I'm working on a C++ project which at some point open a PDF (using the ShellExecute function).
    I coded some javascript in this PDF with Life Cycle Designer to print its content and finally close it automatically using event.target.closeDoc().
    The problem is that just the PDF is closed but not Acrobat Reader.
    I need Reader to be also terminated, to catch the end of process signal in my C++ program and to continu the execution.
    Do have any idea if there is a javascript function to close Reader?
    Thank you very much!

    Hi John,
    After a lot of research and tests, I didn't find the solution. You can't close Acrobat Reader from a pdf. (for security reasons; It's like you are not allowed to closed a browser with a javascript function).
    Finally we moved to the PDF library C++ SDK, so Reader is no more opening, but we had to pay for that...

  • PDF opens slower after enabling comments for Reader

    I enabled commenting for Adobe Reader to my PDF and now when I try to open the document in Reader it takes about 15 seconds longer. Ok, its just 15 seconds, but still...all my other pdf documents open instantly. Is Adobe Reader loading/checking the entire document for comments?--maybe that's why it takes longer?

  • How to open pdf in Acrobat Reader in Firefox window/Tab when both Acrobat Pro and Acrobat REader are

    I would like to open pdf files in firefox using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
    I have both Acrobat Pro or whatever its called and Acrobat Reader installed.
    Presently going to firefox's tools, options, then selecting the file types option I cannot select any plugin to open my pdf's besides what's labeled as "adobe acrobat" but which executes an in-tab instance of Adobe Acrobat Pro, despite the ambiguous language on the plugin which I suspect stems from Adobe's evolving and confusing conventions regarding just what Adobe Reader, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Acrobat Reader, and Adobe Acrobat Pro really is.
    Anyways, how to make pdfs open in-tab instances of Adobe Acrobat Reader while I have both the Reader and the Pro installed?
    Is there a sepperate plugin I need or something?
    Any help is very Appreciated

    eh,
    The problem w/ acrobat is that it takes forever to load
    I was going to just use reader to read documents, and acrobat to edit, so I could gut reader of all the plugins worthless for 99.9999 of pdfs I use and it'll load fast.
    foxit is nice, but won't open in-browser despite their continuing claims of supporting this feature.
    That's so bizarre that adobe won't allow you to choose which one you want to run. Its installed as sepperate programs on the uninstall list, on the "open with" context menu, and w/ file associations, so why would it not be possible to only open pdf links w/ one?
    Maybe its time to abandon acrobat and just use reader. There's much cheaper programs w/ all the same functionality as acrobat, so I guess I'll move on to those.
    If anyone else has suggestions feel free to make em.

  • Form designing for compatibility between Acrobat Reader 7 and Acrobat Professional

    I have designed a Form using LiveCycle Designer 7.0. It contains a few subforms and lot of javascripting. One of the javascript logic I am using is to display a subform when a user clicks a radio button and hide it when the user clicks another radio button. The subform contains Text field, Numeric field, Rectangle, Line, Button. This worked well with Acrobat Reader 7.
    After I installed Acrobat Professional 7, my form breaks. I did a quick test to see where it breaks and came out with the following conclusion.
    1. If the subForm contains an Image, Line, Rectangle or Circle control, the subForm rendering throws error (Adobe Acrobat 7.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close) when I click on the radio button to display the subform.
    2. If the subForm contains Text control, it is displayed even if subform is invisible.
    3. If the subForm contains Checkbox, Radio, Dropdown list, List Box, Button, Submit By Email, Submit, Print Form, Reset Form; these controls are never displayed even if subform is visible.
    Has anyone encountered a similar issue?

    Hi Dave,
    Thanks for the response.
    I need some clarification. When you say 7.0.5 version, are you expecting 7.0.5 version of Reader or Professional?
    Here's the steps I followed:
    I originally had Adobe Designer version 7, 0, 041126, 0 and Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 and everything worked great.
    Now I have uninstalled Designer and Reader and installed
    Acrobat Professional Tryout. This installs Acrobat Professional version 7.0.0 and Adobe Designer version 7, 0, 041126, 0 (which is the same as above). Now the same forms which were working earlier are not working as expected.
    Please note that I have NOT installed Acrobat Reader 7.0.5. How do I find out what version of Reader does Designer user for PDF preview?
    If I separately download Acrobat Reader 7.0.5, how do I tell Designer to use that version for PDF preview?
    Thanks,
    Satish

  • Can you please put me in touch with the support  for the trial copy of adobe acrobat XI pro which I had tried out on March 15 for 30 days. I have  been trying to cancel since the cost is too much and Acrobat Reader is OK for me. I can't find uninstaller.

    I have had to erase my disk since then with trouble with Apple Store not recognising my machine and the reload from Time Machine has given complications . Can you please cancel my trial and return my Trial money.

    If you paid for what you used then it was not a trial.

  • I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader.  I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

    I am trying to drag and drop one page of a .pdf into another .pdf in Acrobat Reader.  I used to be able to drag and drop from one .pdf to another.

    If you could drag and drop pages before, it wasn't in Reader. You no doubt had Adobe Acrobat (Pro or Standard) which shouldn't be confused with Adobe Acrobat Reader. They recently added Acrobat to the name of Adobe Reader so the confusion about which product you had and/or have is understandable.

  • Enable commenting for reader

    Hello,
    Is it possible to set "enable commenting for reader" as the default condition when saving?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    No, it must be done manually for each file (unless you purchase a very
    expensive server product that can do it to multiple files).

  • I upgraded to Lion and now can't print PDF files and Acrobat reader doesn't work anymore. What can I do to get it working?

    I upgraded to Lion and now can't print PDF files and Acrobat reader doesn't work anymore. What can I do to get it working?

    If you upgraded and were using a version of Acrobat Reader that was legacy, that is PPC compatible, then you will have to upgrade to a version compatible with Lion as Lion no longer has Rosetta to interface with the legacy software.
    I know that Acrobat, full version, 10 works with Lion...use it myself.

  • FF 19 for Mac. changed preferences to open PDFs with Acrobat Reader. Now when I click on a pdf link, an about:blank FF window opens (pdf then opens)

    The change in preferences opens the pdf appropriately with Acrobat Reader, as desired, but before it does, FF opens a brand new blank window (about:blank). How can that action be stopped?

    Yes, I mean the eternal application.
    Ctrl-click does open the dialog, but that does not cause new/blank FF window to show up.....however shift-click opens the new/blank window, then opens another FF window with a "New Tab" heading, then opens the pdf with Acrobat Reader.....
    If open the dialog and select "open in new tab" (open in Acrobat Reader is not an option), a new tab is opened, and the the pdf come up in Reader (without opening a new FF window). In earlier FF, it just opened directly in Reader (or acrobat) without opening a new tab or window.
    Thanks

  • How to enable commenting into pdf files using java?

    Hi All,
    Is there any way available to enable comments into pdf files through java. I have a Adobe Reader 9 and also I want put some comments into pdf file, but the reader is not allowed to place a comment into pdf file before enabling the Comments into pdf. After enabling the comments in pdf file then only we can place the comments and we can the pdf file with comments.
    Is there any way available to enable comments into pdf file to view acrobat reader.
    Thanks in advance.

    The end user who uses the web application has Acrobat installed in their mahcine needs it only for the purpose of enabling comments in pdf. If this task of enabling comments in pdf is done through my application there is no need for acrobat in such user's machine which was requested as a cost cuttnig measure.
    For this purpose, i need to know about how to enable comments in pdf through java api.
    I have used itext java api for other pdf related manipulation in java. But it does not have feature as per the requirement posted above. Can any body suggest relevant java api to achieve the task requested?
    Tahnks in Advance.

  • ? How do you change default for .pdf files from Reader 6 to reader 9

    I cannot change the default for .pdf files from reader 6 to reader 9. Also I cannot remove reader 6. I am running Vista

    Normally, completely removing old versions and reinstalling the latest version will reassociate all applicable extensions for the program, but it appears to have failed in your case.  There may be something else going on with your machine that is producing this behavior.  You probably need to investigate that.  But what you can do to make sure the defaults are correct is click on the start orb and select 'Default Programs.'  Then select 'Associate a file type or protocol with a program.'  From the list of file types, select each of the following in turn: acrobatsecuritysettings, fdf, pdf, pdfxml, pdx, xdp, and xfdf.  If its default program is not Adobe Reader, click on the Change Program button and select Acrobat Reader from the list (you may need to expand the lower section to display more programs than it initially provides).  If Adobe Reader does not show up in the list, you will have to browse for it.  It should be located in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 10\Reader\AcroRd32.exe or C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10\Reader\AcroRd32.exe.
    This method is safer than manually editing the Root\Classes in the registry.

    Hi Rodney
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    This sounds like one of those "oddities", contributed to by a few sources.
    I can clear the Safari cache files as a temporary solution, but I encounter the same difficulties with the “problematic” files once they have been opened again.
    Wondering if you disabled the Safari Cache would the refresh function work correctly? As a test you can disable the Safari Cache by Emptying the Cache first via the Safari menu, then Quit Safari. Now go to the Finder>Your User Library>Caches>Safari. Single click on the Safari folder, then Apple Key + I to open Info panel. There, check the "locked" box. This prevents further additions to the cache. The downside, you lose your ability to upload images etc. within Safari (my cache is disabled, so I use Firefox for the uploads).
    Then restart Safari. Try the PDF from within Safari.

  • How put some PDFs in Acrobat Reader on iPad ? On the Adobe Cloud  ?

    How put some PDFs in Acrobat Reader on iPad ? On the Adobe Cloud  ?
    Thanks !!

    pierreswaggy,
    If you have a PDF document opened in some other app on your iPad/iPhone, you can use the "Open In" feature to open it in Adobe Reader for iOS.
    For iPad, see How to open PDF documents in Adobe Reader for iOS (iPad on iOS 7 or 8 version)
    For iPhone, see How to open PDF documents in Adobe Reader for iOS (iPhone on iOS 7 or 8 version)
    If you have PDF documents on your Mac or Windows desktop/notebook computer, you can use Acrobat.com (cloud storage) to share them with your computer(s) and mobile device(s).
    On your Mac/Windows computer
    Open a web browser.
    Go to Acrobat.com (https://cloud.acrobat.com).
    Sign in with your Adobe ID.
    Upload your files to Acrobat.com.
    You can also use the desktop version of Acrobat or Adobe Reader to open a PDF document from Acrobat.com or save to Acrobat.com.  Please check the File menu or the toolbar for the options.
    On your iPad/iPhone
    Launch Adobe Reader for iOS.
    Go to the Reader home screen.
    Tap My Account (in the lower left corner).
    Sign in with your Adobe ID.
    Tap Acrobat.com in the left pane to see the files on Acrobat.com in Reader.
    If you have a lot of large PDF documents on your computer, it would be easier and faster to transfer them to your iPad/iPhone at once (instead of one document at a time) using iTunes.
    See How to transfer PDF documents from your computer to your iPad/iPhone.
    The documents transferred to your iPad/iPhone using iTunes will appear in the Documents section.  Because they are stored locally on your iPad/iPhone.  Please note that any locally stored documents will be erased by iOS, if you uninstall (instead of update) the Reader app.
    Please let us know if you have additional questions or any problems.
