End-User Agreement before opening a pdf file

Hi, is it possible to have an end-user agreement type thing come up when a user opens a pdf file which will only open the document if they accept the agreement? How would i do that?

You can fake it, either using JavaScript and a dialog box or script-controlled layers on the first page of the PDF; but neither method is even remotely-secure, and won't work if the user has scripting disabled or is viewing in a non-Adobe tool or a mobile device.

How to allow only the specified users/groups to open my pdf files...

Hi there,
I'm looking for resources/documents describing how to allow only the specified users/groups to open my pdf files by the Java API...
I've found a sample code creating a policy in the following document.
http://livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/es/sdkHelp/programmer/sdkHelp/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/w whelp.htm?context=sdkHelp&topic=learn_lc_sdk_invokeremoting
( API Quick Starts (Code Examples) > Rights Management Service API Quick Starts > Quick Start: Creating a new policy using the Java API )
But the sample code doesn't set recepients( users/groups ) who can open the pdf file.
How can I make it ?
Any samples ? or Does anybody can tell me which Java classes/methods I should use ??
Policy#addPolicyEntry(PolicyEntry policyEntry) ??
PolicyEntry#setPrincipal(Principal principal) ??
or none of them ?
Any hints are appreciated !
Thanks.

I'm not exactly sure what you are tying to do here, but typical approach when issuing one PDF par user/groups scenario goes like:
1. Create policy for specific purpose and add principal (user/group)
2. Apply policy on server side
3. Deliver the file (via email etc...)
If you are looking for sample codes, try quick start.

If you go "API Quick Start/Rights Management Service API Quick Starts", you might find something useful. I think you need "Creating Policies" or "Modifying Policies" for step 1 above, and "Applying Policies to PDF Documents" for step 2.
Hope this helps.

And, did you do that? The message will no longer occur once you opened Adobe Reader & accept the EULA.

me23n -> Purchase Order -> other purchase order -> I type the order number -> Messages -> Edit --> display originals.
before I had a window that appears and asks me to open, save or cancel the pdf file. the last time I had to uncheck the check box "Always ask before opening this type of file", and since that time when I click on "display Originals" that close SAP.
do you have an idea please, to reactivate the check box "Always ask before opening this type of file".

Every time I try to open a pdf file it says i need to accept the end user agreement

Every time I try to open a pdf file it says I must accept the End User Agreement, so I just try to install it again and it pops up an error.

Does it just say you have to accept the license agreement, or does it say you have to LAUNCH something (Adobe Reader, or Adobe Acrobat)? If it says this, have you done what it says? Or would you like assistance in how to launch stuff in Mac OS or Windows?

Error: I cannot view any PDF files without launching Reader and accepting end User agreement. I have already downloaded Reader.

I am getting an error message when I go to open a PDF file on my MAC that says "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the end user agreement. I have already downloaded Reader many times and followed all of the troubleshooting options. I have matched up my software, which is the latest version and checked to make sure my internet security is enabling java script. I don't know what to do. Please help.

Chrome uses it's own pdf viewer. That's why you don't get the message.
If you are still having the problem on a Mac try:
Make sure your files are not hidden : http://osxdaily.com/2009/02/25/show-hidden-files-in-os-x/
Quit Safari and Adobe Reader if running.
Go to HD/<Users>/<user name>/Library/Preferences/ delete com.adobe.Reader.plist
Launch Adobe Reader from /Applications/
You should be prompted to accept EULA.
If on a Windows machine, do what Bernd described above. Launch Adobe Reader on it's own, not by double clicking a pdf or a link in a browser.

i get a reader message Before viewing PDF ... you must launch adobe reader and then accept the End User License Agreement. Ive searched every part of the menu for this and cant fine it

Ok, so the Reader app works. Fine, but why did you say ",the reader won't open any more", that led us a confusing direction.
Ok, the problem is most likely caused because you downloaded Acrobat Pro, which takes over from Reader, then got rid of it. You now have part of Acrobat in Safari, not part of Adobe Reader.
There are two things to try to fix this. The first and easiest is to download and install Adobe Reader again. That should puts its stuff back in Safari with a bit of luck.
Important note for others following this thread. Downloading Adobe Reader is not going to help you if you have not understood and followed the instructions to "launch" Adobe Reader (or Adobe Acrobat). Make sure you understand what "launch" means before downloading anything again.

I am trying to view a PDF, but a message tells me to accept the end user agreement first. I can't figure out how to do that.

How to I accept the "End User Agreement" to be able to view a pdf?

If you are in Windows (which we don't know), you can try using Windows Explorer to navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement. If you are in Mac, see here: I have installed adobe reader onto my Mac but when I open up an adobe pdf it tells me that i need to accept the end user license agreement, quite, and then open up a new browser but i have never seen the end user license agreement. What should I do in ord

"Adobe Acrobat is blocked" - Where to I accept the end user agreement which will enable me to access Pdf documents on the web?

I keep getting this message when trying to open documents from the web:
"Adobe Acrobat is blocked" -
Where to I accept the end user agreement which will enable me to access Pdf documents on the web?
The Adobe website recommends this: (did not solve the problem)
Safari 7 and 6.1 block PDFs | Acrobat, Reader
Thanks for any help solving this annoying problem!
OSX 10.9.3
Safari 7.0.4
Acrobat Pro 11.0.0

Hello Isakten:
Thanks so much for your reply!
I already have Adobe Reader 11.0.7 and Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 installed.
Following your instructions, I then selected Reader as the desired Adobe product to open all PDFs. and save that choice. Still no difference, the same black screen and statement about the EULA shows up…
http://www.nhgastro.net/patients.html
BTW, this is the website that I was accessing……note the link to download and print the pdf which triggers the EULA page.
and also downloaded the latest version of Reader via their link….but to no success…..
This all started by itself months ago, I did no newer installs or settings changes, none……
Any other thoughts?
Thanks so much,
Steve

I can't open a pdf file since updating to firefox 4.0. I have foxit reader installed and it worked before. Adobe is not compatible with Firefox. What do I need to do. I need to file my income tax online and can't because of this issue

Just can't open any pdf files. Having no luck trying to fix myself.

For Firefox users, there might be a built in pdf viewer, or a preferred viewer that handles pdf files.
I am not having any trouble logging in, so lets try this:
* Remove any cookies from the cache: [[Delete cookies to remove the information websites have stored on your computer]]
*[[Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings]] if there is stored user data that is removed in this process: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]

I can not open documents using adobe reader because I have to accept "end user agreement". How do I get to agreement?

thx but the only thing that happens when I open Adobe Reader is that a small icon appears in the bottom-line. There is no dialogue box where I can accept!

When I try to open a pdf file, it will only save. It worked fine before 3.6.6.

I want to open a pdf file in Preview on my Mac. Now it will only save it even though the preferences have been set correctly. It worked fine before 3.6.6 version.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Upgraded to 3.6.6

Gilad, I am new and I don’t know how to reply within the discussion site. The browser I use is Firefox. Thank you for any assistance.

I have a user on Adobe Reader X. whenever they open a .pdf file, the form fields do not auto-fill until you click in the box. Is there a setting that can be changed to make the form open properly?

Sounds like the form fields were filled in on a Mac using Mac Preview. This cannot be fixed in Reader only Acrobat. Ask the person who filled in the form to redo their work in Adobe Reader.

Can't open web pdf files from my Reader DC because my IMac wants a completed license agreement to use Reader and I never saw that page during installation.

Can't open web pdf files from my newly installed Reader DC because my IMac wants a completed license to use agreement to Reader, and I never saw that page during installation. How do I get past this?

You need to accept the EULA on first launch of the Reader DC application.
Go to the Applications folder and launch Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
This will bring up the EULA.
Select the "Agree" button if you agree with the terms
Assuming you selected the "Agree" button, Reader DC should open.
You should now be able to open PDF files in your web browser.
