  • Comments in adobe reader not showing even after saving...

    Hi,
    We are using Adobe Reader X and have been emailed a document to comment on. We've used strikeout and replace, sticky notes and additional text commentary.
    We've been saving the document as we went along in a folder that we had access to (not the email temp folder) and when we closed the document and re-opened, none of the comments were showing at all.
    We then tried adding one comment, saving as a different file name, reopened and still nothing showing. We have als tried opening the same file in Acrobat - again nothing showing.
    At one point we added a comment box, saved it, reopened it and the comment box showed (fantastic - we thought).. so we added another.. closed and reopened and now only the first one shows and nothing else.
    This is becoming a little bit of a brain teaser and a bit frustrating as we fear we've lost all previous comments.
    Can you help?

    What happens now when you click the link or button to print checks? Does Firefox's PDF viewer come up or nothing happens at all?
    If you need to completely disable the viewer, there is a hidden preference you can change.
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''pdfjs''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click '''pdfjs.disabled''' to toggle its value to true.
    If you test in your original tab, does that make any difference?

  • Adobe reader not associating with pdf files

  • Have Adobe Reader not show bleed

    hello. For proof reading, I'm exporting my InDesign CS3 file (that uses 3mm of bleed on all sides) to a pdf legible for the customer. Would there be a way to have Adobe Reader 8.1.2 (on Mac OS X 10.5.2) actually not show the bleed area (instead of just showing the bleed box which is achieved by checking 'show art, trim & bleed boxes' in the preferences)?
    thanks a lot

    You can try using this tool to remove all traces of previous version(s) of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you may download the offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • Firefox or Adobe will not allow downloading useable PDF files anymore. Started with last update of Adobe/Firefox.

    For the last few days, I think it was after an update in Firefox or an update in Adobe reader, I cannot save a PDF file from the web and then open it with either Adobe Reader or PDFlite.
    The file opens and I can read it just fine within Firefox using Adobe Reader, I guess as a plug in.
    But if I save the file as a PDF it saves just fine, with a PDF extension, but when I try to read the PDF file with Adobe or PDFlite it gives an error message - "Adobe Reader could not open <filename> because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
    I download a lot of datasheets so this is suddenly a major problem for me.
    Thanks - Don

    Hi Don, there might not be an advantage for you if Adobe works well for you. There are some articles on the motivation for developing a non-proprietary PDF reader -- which is definitely a work-in-progress -- but I don't have the references handy.
    Let me tackle some of those individual items:
    (1) Unknown publisher warning. This is odd, do you notice that with any other downloads?
    It might be a feature of Windows download security. By default, Firefox marks downloads as having come from the internet. You can turn that off by turning off Firefox's antivirus integration. Your real-time AV software still will check files once they are downloaded; this feature is really for people who do not have full-time AV, only on-demand AV.
    To toggle that setting:
    (i) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful. This is Firefox's about:config preferences editor.
    (ii) In the filter box, type or paste '''scan''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (iii) Double-click '''browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone''' to switch it from true to false. You're done with about:config.
    Does that affect the warning?
    (2) Where do you see "Save as PDF"?
    I have "Save Page As" on the menu. That worked when I tried a simple PDF. By worked I mean it opened without complaint in Adobe Reader. I suspect it's doing the same thing as the download button.

  • Flex Mobile - PDF not displaying error - "Adobe Reader not found"

    Hi everyone,
    Is viewing PDF documents supported in Flex Mobile projects?  At the moment, I get an error saying:
    "Adobe Reader not found"
    I am converting my Adobe Air Desktop project to a Mobile project with Flashbuilder 4.5.1. Any documentation reference on how to get PDF's to view on Flex Mobile applications would greatly be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Thankyou. The Central Question over this Lumia 625 inability to open a specific pdf (by Lonely Planet) remains:-I could uninstall this Adobe Reader app but think this is not the problem as this app does indeed open all other pdf's on my phone successfully, e.g. the Lonely Planet Invoice!
    On the other hand, this particular downloaded & installed pdf can be read on my home PC, my Macbook & my IpodTouch so I can't attribute fault to the filename.
    The basic Troubleshoot step of a "soft reset"  is NOT described in the Lumia 625 User Guide & I'm pessimistic this arbitrary step will bear fruit. I have come to the conclusion that no matter what I do, this Lumia model using the MIcrosoft OS has a system flaw that is unable to read the file (a file that other devices & another OS can read) & I will not waste time with ad hoc actions such as resets as this is not a hobby for me.
    The pdf in question (88Mb, Lumia free space is >3Gb)  is a travel guide I'd like to use on my next trip & this Lumia 625 is proving not worthy of coming with me. I am disappointed at the lack of "Customer Support" shown by the Nokia Company & I hope this is relayed as some "friendly feedback". Thank you for your own assistance, though.
    I invite correction if this assessment is mistaken.

  • Cannot get Adobe Reader to load a PDF on Firefox. Tried all the recommended solutions, none work

    Every time I try to download a PDF file from a website, I get an error message that "Adobe Acrobat/Reader cannot be opened in a web browser, close it and try again". I have uninstalled and re-installed both firefox and adobe reader as well, and then followed the suggestions again. Still doesn't work. I am running Windows XP

    Also, sorry -- one more thought:
    When I run through the "Troubleshoot compatibility" it tells me that something is incompatible ("issues found: Incompatible Application").  when it asks me, "which version of Windows did this program work on before?" it doesn't give me windows 7 as an option.
    Help!

  • FYI: Server-side fix for IE / Adobe Reader 10.1.2 PDF embed problem

    Hey all,
    I posted this message as a reply to a question, but want to make sure this gets out there for others who may benefit:
    After about four hours of debugging this issue, I have found that, at least for me, the regression issue seems to be with Adobe Reader handling a gzipped PDF embedded in the IE browser, specifically. I can't speak to why this would occur, but hopefully this will help others out. On our site, we had gzipping only disabled (as most probably do) for images (gif, jpg, jpeg, png), meaning PDFs were being gzipped. This, prior to 10.1.2, worked just fine. I changed our web server configs so that PDFs are no longer gzipped and I can now view the PDFs in IE with Reader 10.1.2 the same as before.
    If you're using Apache, look for a line that looks something like this in your httpd.conf:
    \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ no-gzip dont-vary
    And change to:
    \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png|pdf)$ no-gzip dont-vary
    That all being said, this still sounds like a bug in Reader 10.1.2, and gzipped PDFs via IE should be supported. I'm sending a separate report to Adobe so hopefully that specific information will help them debug / fix. Until a patch has been released, however, this will make sure our customers can view PDFs. Hope this helps someone else out!

    According to http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/860/cpsid_86063.html from 2012-01-09
    "Unsupported configurations for Reader running in Protected Mode include:
    Hosting on a Citrix or Windows Terminal Server. Fixed 10.1 (including Acrobat's Protected View)."
    Try disabling Protected Mode:
    From Adobe's help file:
    Protected mode (Windows)
    By default, Adobe Reader X runs in protected mode to provide an added layer of security. In protected mode, malicious PDF documents can’t launch arbitrary executable files or write to system directories or the Windows Registry.
    To check the status of protected mode, choose File > Properties > Advanced > Protected Mode.
    Protected mode is enabled by default. To turn off protected mode:
    1 Choose Edit > Preferences.
    2 In the Categories list on the left, select General.
    3 Deselect Enable Protected Mode at startup.

  • "Adobe reader cannot show docs i n this configuration" message when trying to access certain docs

    How can I access all docs like I can using Safari instead of getting the perpetual message"Adobe Reader cannot show documents in this browser configuration."?

    Please update the firefox to the latest version, firefox uses inbuild pdf reader.
    In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
    #Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
    #In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
    #In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
    #On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • How can I hide page thumbnails navigation bar at the start up of Adobe Reader and open a pdf file?

    Hey there,
    Thanks for your reply. That works for the files I do what you said. However, for files I have not done that, It still shows the navigation bar. Any idea, how to do it default for any files?

  • Adobe Reader 9.4.2 - PDFs won't open in IE 8 & IE 9

    The recent Adobe Reader 9.4.2 is causing issues with PDFs opening in IE 8 and 9 browsers.  Prior to this update our users have had no issues with opening PDFs generated by our website.
    Our website generates USPS labels using Siberix ReportWriter software.  We have not released any updates for at least a month.  Again, before the release of Adobe Reader 9.4.2, there was no issues with our website's PDFs opening in IE browsers.
    User System Specs:
    Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 Ultimate
    Adobe Reader 9.4.2
    Internet Explorer 8 - "File Download" window issue
    Internet Explorer 9 - "File Download" window issue
    Firefox 3.6.13 - No Issues
    Chrome 9.0.597.98 (with Adobe Reader 9.4.2 plugin enabled and Chrome PDF Viewer disabled) - No Issues
    The "File Download" window states the following (in addition to a Save and a Cancel button): "The file you are downloading cannot be opened by the default program.  It is either corrupt or it has an incorrect file type.  As a security precaution, it is recommended that you cancel the download. ..."
    We have the following workarounds to address this issue with our customers, but they are not ideal:
    Update to Adobe Reader X
    Disable "Display PDF in browser" Reader option
    Don't update Adobe Reader 9 to 9.4.2
    Install other PDF Reading software.
    Any solutions to this issue would be appriciated.
    Thanks

    We are experiencing the same problem, as I mentioned below. I did some research and experimentation, and have a ... workaround. It's not completely satisfactory, but we will go with it until we have a complete solution. Perhaps the following will help others and spur some research in the right direction.
    First, a quick review. The problem does not occur with PDFs located on disk; it only occurs with direct streaming of PDF data. Let's also note that the problem does NOT occur with other browsers, e.g. FireFox. So ... technically the problem is not an Adobe Reader problem and we're all on the wrong forum.
    My specialty is databases and I'm certainly no expert in this area, but from what I'm able to gather the problem is instead with how IE is recognizing and responding to the MIME type of the streamed data. We're all setting the contenttype to "application/pdf" (or similar) or we wouldn't even be here. But I'm concluding that something - some windows update - has changed the way IE on clients or (in my case) IIS on the server is handling that data stream. If any of you experiencing this issue have servers other than IIS, then the problem is on the client side, I'd say.
    Aaaaaanyway, the following articles are old, but helped me:
    http://forums.asp.net/p/1036628/1436084.aspx
    http://www.techper.net/2008/02/27/4-ways-to-stream-pdf-and-some-tips/
    To cut to the chase, the workaround we're going with for now is to add the following to the http response header (this is C#/ASP.NET code):
    Response.AppendHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=myfile.pdf");
    That causes a popup dialog to appear asking the user to open or save the PDF, something that is familiar to most everyone. If the user asks to open the file, it appears in a browser window just as it did before this problem occurred. Again, this is a temporary solution, but at least the user can see the PDF data in a browser with one extra mouse click.
    If an Adobe tech support person or anyone with more experience in this area knows the final solution, I'd LOVE to hear it. Please reply here or in email.
    Thanks and good luck all.

  • Adobe Reader not working after update to version XI

    I have had Adbobe Reader installed on my PC for ages and have been using this to view my PDF files without any issues. However, Adobe Reader updated automatically to version XI a few days ago. Since then, I have been completely unable to open Adobe Reader at all. The screen does not load up fully with only the top menu bar visible and the remainder a blank grey screen with all menu options inactive or greyed out, and sometimes crashes and closes automatically after a few seconds. I am unable to view any PDF file, even those which I previous viewed with no issues. I have tried running the Adober Cleaner tool but this has not helped. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Reader numerous times with no success. I have also tried reinstalling previous versions of Adober Reader but have idential issues with these too. I have tried checking system compatability using the troubleshooter tool but this appears to be fine, and have also tried disactivating my AntiVirus/firewall software (Norton 360). I am running a Windows 7 operating system in English (UK). Any help gratefully received as Adobe will not offer telephone assistance as this is freeware! Thanks in advance.

    You may have given up by now..  I just hope this advice helps some other user..
    Have encountered this isssue several times..     
    several points I will note: of the machines I have worked on to date: only 1 did not have malware, all thus far have been 64bit Win7 and it seems after update to Reader 11.03..
    but each so far I have:
    - Checked for and removed any malware and or strange BHO's and Toolbars
    - cleared all temp files including temporary internet
    - removed Adobe reader and ANY OTHER PDF READER and reinstalled Adobe reader
    - Checked that PDF's are associating with Adobe reader (sounds silly )
    - Started the PC in Safe Mode - check reader works
                                                 - Disabled Protected Mode in preferences: then disabled antivirus, along with most startup services and applications
                                                 - restarted in normal mode - Check PDF opens normally: 100% of time for me it worked
                                                 - re-enabled the anti-virus - restarted PC and rechecked
                                                 - re-enable services and applications by group - restart and retest
    So far that is all that I have needed to do.
    All the best
