"Fast Web View" changing depending on versions

Hi there,
We have some PDFs that need to have the "Fast Web View" option enabled. Although the files have this option enabled when viewed on version 6.0, when the files are viewed on a later version - Version X for example, some of them are still enabled but others have been changed to "No".
Any ideas what is going on? Are the files "Fast Web View" enabled, or not?
Thanks for the help!

Hi,
Currently the only explanation we have is "Acrobat is wierd". I could understand it a little more if all files were set to "Yes" in version 6 and "No" in other versions, however some files are "Yes" in all versions?!
Please, any ideas out there?

  • Fast Web View

    I have enabled fast web view using "save as", but if i change something and just click "save", the "Fast Web View" change back to NO. Why does it change? Is there a way to stop that? Or i need to use "save as" every time once i change something?

    This is related to a bug in the direct PDF output from Word 2007. I was told that Microsoft has fixed this bug in the final SP2 release (so when the service pack becomes available, this problem will not be present).
    Until then, the workaround is indeed to turn off the "Save As optimizes for Fast Web View" preference in Acrobat (Edit > Preferences > Documents, under Save Settings).

  • "Allow fast web view" Option in Adobe Reader

    Hi Experts,
    Is there any chance "Allow fast web view" option in Adobe Reader can be controlled through Documaker settings? Documaker version is 11.1.
    (Adobe Reader, go to Edit --> Preference ---> Internet ---> check/uncheck the option "Allow fast web view". )
    In our case, Documaker generated PDFs are being downloaded by users using browser (IE 7/8/9). "Allow fast web view" option is causing issues in some IE versions. As of now we are manually un-checking the Adobe Reader option in every signle machine as and when issue occurs.
    Regards,
    Sruthi

    Thank you for the reply..
    I have tried the option in 11.1, 11.3 & 12.1 versions. As specified in printer reference, SortBatches option is not included in INI. Still no luck. PDF is by default taking the property from Adobe reader (version XI in my case). Any other INI changes will be required?

  • Enable Fast Web View

    How to set Fast Web View for PDF generated in NWDS ?
    nikhiL

    Hi Nikhil,
    From fast Web View do you mean that your PDF is taking time in opening? If this is the case, then generally it depends on the amount of data you are displaying on the form, if your form has large number of drop downs with huge data then it will take time in displaying the form.
    Other problem may be the version of the form, Adobe 8.0.1 takes more time in opening, SAP Note 1104060 can help you if you are on version 8.
    Hope this helps,

  • Enable Fast Web View using ODC

    Hi Friends,
    Please guide me how to enable "Fast Web View" Property to PDF which generated using Oracle Document Capture.
    Fast Web View:
    Fast Web View restructures a PDF document for page-at-a-time downloading (byte-serving) from web servers. With Fast Web View, the web server sends only the requested page, rather than the entire PDF. This is especially important with large documents that can take a long time to download from a server.
    Verify that an existing PDF is enabled for Fast Web View:
    Do one of the following:
    ■Open the PDF in Acrobat, and choose File > Properties. Look in the lower right area of the Description panel of the dialog box for the Fast Web View setting (Yes or No).
    ■(Windows only) In Windows Explorer, right-click the PDF file icon and choose Properties. Click the PDF tab and look near the bottom of the panel for the Fast Web View setting (Yes or No).
    Thanks,
    Selva

  • Acrobat 9.3.4 (or 9.3.3.177): Save As with Optimize for Fast Web View

    When I do a Save As with Optimize For Fast Web View checked, the saving stops and an Adobe Acrobat dialog displays:
         The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document (111).
    If I uncheck Optimize For Fast Web View, the Save As seems to work.
    Is there a way to have Fast Web View work with Save As?
    Acrobat.exe is version 9.3.4 (or 9.3.3.177 in the properties). The Acrobat.DLL version is 9.3.4.218.

    Thanks.  I did submit a report at the site.  I hope somebody reads it as this is a big problem for us.
    Thanks again.

  • Acrobat Pro 10 Actions Not Applying Fast Web View

    Acrobat Pro 10 actions are pretty useful overall, however they are not applying Fast Web View all the time. In my opinion, all PDFs generated today should be Fast Web View by default, but among the many applications which allow for PDF creation, not all apply Fast Web View for some reason.
    I did see http://forums.adobe.com/message/3335827for a potential band-aid fix. Unfortunately, it did not work for me.
    Here is the text from my Action sequence file:
    <</Commands [/c << /0 [/c <<  /Config [/c <<   /UIPolicy [/i 3]
    >>]
      /HandlerName [/a /FlattenOCGs]

      /HandlerName [/a /ReduceFileSize]
      /Params [/c <<   /RFSCompatibility [/i 6]

      /Title [/t (Reduce File Size)]
    >>]
    /2 [/c <<  /Config [/c <<   /UIPolicy [/i 3]

      /HandlerName [/a /ExamineDocCmd]
      /Params [/c <<   /RmAnnots [/b false]

       /RmLinksActionsJS [/b false]
       /RmMetadata [/b false]
       /RmOverlappingObjects [/b false]

    >>]
      /Title [/t (Remove Hidden Information)]

    /Output [/c << /AddToBaseName [/b false]
    /DontOverwrite [/b false]
    /EmbedIndex [/b false]
    /FileVariation [/i 2]

    /OptimizePDF [/b true]
    /PresetName [/t (test2)]
    /RunPDFOptimizer [/b true]
    >>]
    >>
    As you can see, the "/OptimizePDF [/b true]" is set per the instructions in the aforementioned link. It still does not set Fast Web View all the time. I ran a test of the action on a batch of 10 PDFs, some were set to Fast Web View and some were not. While one of the PDFs that was not set to Fast Web View was open in Acrobat, I ran the same Action again and it did apply Fast Web View! I even installed the latest patch hoping that would fix it, but unfortunately it did not. Distiller does in fact set Fast Web View, but it won't work on PDFs. The only way I can find to guarantee the establishment of Fast Web View is to manually do a Save As on every file which I think is asking a bit much when you deal with hundreds of PDFs on any given day. Also that would effectively defeat the purpose of running an Action on hundreds of PDFs in the first place.
    Any ideas?

    There is a bug because of which fast web view is always disabled. While that is fixed, here the workaround. Save the action and open the .sequ file in Notepad. Change:
                    /OptimizePDF [/b false]
    to
                    /OptimizePDF [/b true]

  • Issue with multiple digital signatures disabling fast web view

    Hello, I'm using acrobat 9.1 pro and have some questions regarding an issue using multiple signatures on a pdf.
    Why am I asking the question below? My job involves preparing pdf's for submission to FDA. The FDA requires, among other things, that electronically submitted docs have fast web view enabled.
    I am currently exploring ways of using digital signatures to sign pdf reports and still make sure they are FDA spec compliant. My issue involves a document that would have multiple signature fields. What I do is create at least two signature fields in the doc and then save and optimize while enabling fast web view. When I sign the first box and save, the file retains the fast web view status. Yet, when I apply and signatures past the first one, the file is subsequently set to fast web view off without any obvious way of turning it back on. I am confused as to why it gets disabled only after the second, and not right after even the first one was signed. And, of course, I would like to know if it is possible to maintain fast web view and how to do it. I'll gladly accept "tinkering under the hood" of the file suggestions if they exist as well.
    Please let me know if anything is unclear or you need further information.
    Thanks for your time and help.

    Hi Vlad,
    Michael actual had the correct answer. The purpose of a "Linearized" file (i.e. a file that has been Optimized for Fast Web View) is to get the first page to display as soon as possible so you can start reading without waiting for the rest of the file to download. As an aside, the designated first page doesn't necessarily have to be page 0 (PDF's use a zero based counting system for pages), but usually it is. To quote the PDF specification, "The primary focus of Linearized PDF is optimized viewing of read-only PDF documents. It is intended that the Linearized PDF be generated once and read many times. Incremental update is still permitted, but the resulting PDF is no longer linearized and subsequently is treated as ordinary PDF."
    When you sign a PDF file the first time the Save process is a "full save", that is the entire document is rewritten so there are no more than two %%EOF (end-of-file) markers in it. The first EOF designates which page to show first and the second EOF designates the end of the rest of the file (so the browser knows when to stop downloading). However, when you add a second (or subsequent) signature the file is saved as an "incremental save" and all of the new data is tacked onto the the end of the original file. This is so you can do a rollback to the previous signed version and allows Acrobat/Reader to check the integrity of each signature independent of any other signatures. It's the incremental save that breaks the linearized optimization of the file.

  • "Fast Web View" not supported in Acrobat X plug-in for FireFox/Chrome

    The Acrobat X plug-in for displaying PDFs in FireFox/Chrome does NOT support fast web view.   This means that PDFs don't display until after the entire file has been download.
    For example, try viewing this document in either IE(Windows) or Safari(Mac):
    http://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/pdf/PDFReference.pdf
    Notice how it opens very quickly, and then you can scroll around and view all the content as the PDF content strreams in?  In Safari you can see the download progress like you used to be able to see in all versions of the acrobat plug-in.  Note also that in the IE version, although fast web view is working, you cannot see the download progress like you used to be able to... Thats an issue, but not nearly as bad as the real issue...
    Now try clicking the same link in either FireFox or Chrome (note that in Chrome you need to be sure that Chrome's PDF viewer is turned off and the acrobat plug-in is enabled).  Note that the PDF is not displayed until the entire file is downloaded.
    This feature is VITAL for viewing large documents online.  I'm astonished that this has not been reported by other users.
    Adobe -- PLEASE be sure that this gets fixed in the next update to Reader X!!  I was shocked to see that it was not fixed in 10.1.

    WHY would you want to disable this? Linearized "Fast Web View" enabled PDF are the right and proper type of document to be created.

  • Unable to enable "Fast Web View" in an existing PDF/A file.

    I have a pre-existing PDF/A file that I'd like to optimize for web publishing (i.e. enable "Fast Web View").  I have done this kind of conversion in the past using Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.0 and X but whenever I attempt to do so for this particular file via Tools and/or by making the changes in Preferences and executing a "Save As" the Fast Web View is still set to "No".  We have attempted to make this change using Ghostscript but that too has proven unsuccessful.  The file is 2.6 GB and I have attached a screenshot of the properties of said PDF/A for reference.  Has anyone encountered this before and found a way to modify the file?  Thanks.

    Tricky one. It might not be possible, since modifying to PDF/A might turn off optimization, while optimizing might turn off PDF/A... I think people have largely lost interest in fast web view since broadband is mostly so, well, broad.

  • Acrobat X fast web view

  • Turn off "Optimizing for fast web viewing"?

    I downloaded a .doc file from the internet with Firefox and saved it to hard drive. Then I had it converted to a .pdf format online via zamzar.com. Then I opened it with Adobe Reader XI and saved it to hard drive, but it changes size in that process. There's a popup near lower right of screen saying "Optimizing for Fast Web Viewing" (see graphic below) which I never saw before. This is very disconcerting and upsets all notions of file identity based on size. I don't want it to change the size automatically. How do I turn that off?
    (Windows XP Home SP3, Adobe Reader XI)

    Back up and restore using iTunes.

  • Adobe Reader X fast web view problem

    Hi,
    When I try to open a PDF with several pages from the web using Adobe Reader X, fast web view function seems not working while I could only view it after download of the whole file completed. Checked and confirmed that "Allow fast web view" selected in the Reader, as well as the PDF file being tested support such function. Here's my OS and software environment:
    - Windows 7 Pro 64-bit with SP1
    - Internet Explorer v8.0.7601.17514
    - Adobe Reader X v10.0.1
    I tried several scenario as below:
    - Disable "Display PDF in browser", no improvement
    - Uninstall Reader X and install Reader 9, test on the same PDF and fast web view working properly
    - Uninstall Reader 9 and install Reader X again, same problem happen again
    - Install Reader X on a freshly installed Windows XP with SP3, same problem appears
    Does anyone experience the same issue? Or any ideas \ solutions? Many thanks.
