First Page appears blank

Hey Everyone,
We have a few people that use Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional at our company, and very recently one person started experiencing a weird issue where they would open a .pdf and the first page would appear blank (as in a grey background like nothing is there). They could then move forward to page 2, then back to 1 and it will display correctly. This has happened with more than one .pdf. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software, but to no avail. The .pdf's are not corrupt, as they open just fine in Adobe Reader, and I can take them to another machine with Acrobat 7 installed and it opens fine there as well. I have looked through the settings in comparison to another machine and they seem to be identical. There must be some setting I'm missing, but I'm not sure where to look. Any help with resolving this problem, or even a simple point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Paul,
Thanks for responding. I tried this for the employee, but unfortunately it did not do the trick. One weird thing that I noticed is that it doesn't do the blank page everytime. This also seems to only happen in Acrobat Pro. The Adobe Reader opens the .pdf fine every time. Weird issue huh?

  • First page appears blank when viewing a Crystal Report in the web viewer

    I have seen threads and KB articles regarding this issue but the suggested solutions do not correct the issue. (KB articles [1423482 and 1439109)
    The issue only started after upgrading from CR 2008 runtime to CR 2008 SP4 runtime.
    When the page containing the viewer control first loads, the report pane is completely blank.
    The viewer toolbars appear as expected, and the report can be exported using the Export button on the viewer toolbar without issue.
    Changing the zoom level causes the first page of the report to appear as expected, and reverting the zoom level does not cause the report pane to become blank again.
    Navigating to the next page of the report works and the second page appears as expected. Returning to the first page shows the first page of the report as expected.
    Our application is installed on dozens of servers but this issue only has occurred on a few installations at this time.
    Steps attempted to resolve the issue:
    1. Uninstall CR 2008 SP4 runtime, confirm the CrystalReportViewers12 folders were removed from the folders C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727 and C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\4.0, then reinstall CR 2008 SP4 runtime.
    2. Ensure there are no underscores in the server name.
    3. Change the crystalreportsviewers12 Virtual Directory to use the folder C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\CrystalReportViewers12
    4. Remove and recreate the crystalrep[ortviewers12 Virtual Directory.
    5. Replace the C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\aspnet_client\system_web\2_0_50727\CrystalReportViewers12 folder from a server that does not exhibit the issue.
    Any new ideas or suggestions? Thanks

  • First Page is Blank

    Hi All,
    I'm new to Oracle Report Builder, i created a report using Grouping on 'Type'. The result is ok but the problem is that i wanted every new 'Type' on new page. So i set the 'Page Break Before' to Yes. The result came out but the first page is blank.. Any help would be appreciated.
    Regards,

    Hello
    U set Page Break Before property to "Yes" .Don't do like that u again set that property to "No".
    And u set Maximum recors per page property to 1
    so u will get 1 type of records on 1 page.
    U set this property of your type field's repeating frame.
    Enjoyyyyyyyyyy

  • Why are my existing content pages appearing blank in RH7?

    I am working in RoboHelp 7.  Some of my existing pages appear blank in the tool, but when I do a Preview or generate the final output, the content appears in the viewer window.  It also appears to the end-user just fine.  I have tried importing the file again and also re-typing the information, to no avail.

    Hi,
    Yes, they do.  It doesn’t happen to all of my pages, just some.  I normally don’t notice which pages are having problems, until I access the page in order to make an edit.  and then the page is blank!  it’s frustrating.
    I hate to change the layout of one page – to remove the drop-down, because all of my pages have drop-downs.  and in order to make the pages look consistent across the board, I’d need to update 3,000+ topics (and I’m the only writer in my division).
    I know – the next thing you’ll say is that my project is too big.  ☺  that’s one thing I’m working on…eventually I want to use DITA.

    Hello. When trying to forward a multiple page PDF document, only the first page appears. Does anyone know how to fix this. TY

    Are you sure?   I believe the mail program only previews the first page for you, but sends the whole attachment.  Try opening the attachment (e.g., select and hit spacebar for a preview of the whole thing, or by double-clicking it, or control-clicking then "Open...")  You should see the whole document.

  • Firefox 13's new tab page appears blank, just like in older versions. Why?

    After my beta install upgraded from 12 to 13 yesterday, the new tab page was working as advertised. When I started my computer today, however, the new tab page appeared blank, just as it did in older versions of Firefox. What happened? Any idea how to fix it?

    The thumbnails on the about:newtab page are generated from the cache, so if the page is not in the cache or otherwise can't be rendered as a PNG image then you will get an empty box.<br />
    Do not use Clear Recent History to clear data when you close Firefox.<br />
    If there is no history then you get an about:newtab page with empty boxes.

  • In my portfolio, one document of 6 pages, only the first page appears and i can't move to the other

    Am making
    up a portfolio of different pdfs. 1 document has 6 pages, but I can only see the first page. When I worked on it at home, an arrow
    appeared at the  bottom of the first page by which I could move to the other pages. Now here at work, there is no arrow and it is just stuck on the first page. I am working with Acrobat X.
    Many thanks for any suggestions.

    Bernd,
    We saw an "Attach Files" button on Laura's page the other day, though others of us could not figure out how to display it.  It is apparent to me that Laura and Cathy have this "Attach Files" button showing up in their reply pages, but it sounds like this is happening in error.  Laura provided this screen capture:

  • New page for group headers - the first page is blank

    In the Section Expert, if you set the Group Header #1 to "New Page Before", and there is a Page Header section, the first page will show the Page Header with no further data. The rest of the report does the page breaks correct, that is, a new page every time the grouping changes.
    How do you stop this blank page at the beginning?
    If you assign New Page After in the Group Footer, there is a blank page at the end of the report, which is also annoying. What am I missing?
    Robert

    If you are using "New Page Before" then use the condition by clicking on X+2 corresponds to it and write
    Not OnFirstRecord
    For "New Page After" write
    Not OnLastRecord

  • When I attach a PDF document in mail only the first page appears. How do I get the whole document to work

    Title says it all. I go to attach file add the fild and the first page shows up in the body of the email. How do I get the whole document to show up?

    You can't get the whole document to appear on your side.
    When you send it, the entire document will be sent.  Normally, clicking on it will open it in preview where you can see all pages.  If you want to see it in this way, just cc: or bcc: yourself on the email when you send it.

  • Pages appear blank

    i made a site with an older version of iWeb -- 06? 07? -- and all was well. i upgraded to iWeb 08 today and made some revisions on my site and reuploaded it (via FTP to my hostmonster domain) and several of the pages are blank. they all have the headers and nav bars, but no content. i did some research and found that some hosts have issues with the first line of code (<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>) and it will cause a blank page and if you delete it all your problems disappear. doesn't work for me. hostmonster didn't have an issue with the previous iWeb files, so something in the 08 files is different and causing the issue. also, my index.html page is fine, all the content is there. so what's up with that? i am not going to change hosts, so what can i edit on the code to get this to work?

    i did some research and found that some hosts have issues with the first line of code (<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>) and it will cause a blank page and if you delete it all your problems disappear. doesn't work for me.
    When that problem exists, the entire page will be blank, not just part of it.
    Please provide your url so people can see what you are talking about.

  • First page appearing only

    Hi
    I have a problem with a form that consists of two different dymanic interactive pages.
    when I first open the form I do not want the second page to appear until the first page is filled with data.
    is this possible with LiveCycle Designer 7 or do I have to create the pages as two different forms.
    thank you

    Jerold...thanks. I think it was a bug of sorts. I also had a line that would appear in the footer. Eventually changed page sizes, but what fixed it was deleting that file and beginning over. Now footer works as expected. But...always difficult to figure out if it is the dumb user, or the program
    Thanks for taking the time to answer.

  • Some pages appear blank until I refresh the page then it displays normally

    When selecting some websites the page is blank until I refresh.

    This also happens to me (on Linux), usually when switching back to a tab which had already been displayed properly before. Suddenly the page is blank and the page must be reloaded manually.

  • Mac Mail A4 print, first page is blank

    Hello,
    I have this funny issue.
    Some emails in Mac Mail when printing to A4 portrait will only show the header on the first page, the next page then has the start of the body of the email.
    If I switch to landscape it is fine, or A5.
    I have experimented with custom paper sizes, A4 being 210 x 297 if I set the page size to 210 x 291 or lower it previews fine.
    Seems Apple Mail does not like page height of higher than 291mm!
    Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks,
    David

  • Quiz results page appears blank

    I have built a module consisting of 122 slides and is 10.8mb in filesize.
    Everything appears fine and work perfectly my end however when I have sent it out for review the past couple of times, my colleauge revewing it can see "a blank screen after the quiz so I eventually had to close the module to exit. In addition I've noticed that when you submit some of the first aid quiz questions a yellow appears around the text at the bottom of the screen."
    Can anyone shed some light onto this please?

    Uploading files so that other people can download them is often the cause of playback issues because people don't always download all the required files for a Captivate movie to work.  Also, people often just double click a zip archive and try to launch the HTM file, not realising that playing something from within an archive is not the same as unzipping the entire package to a folder and THEN playing the same HTM.
    For more consistent testing results, I encourage you to gain access to a web server where you can place your files and then just send people a link to the HTM file on that server via http://mycourselocation.mycourse.htm or similar.  That way, they just get access to the file required to launch all the others and you can eliminate many of the silly little issues that people fall into.
