Help with Autocad Drawings in Acrobat 7.0 Professional

I am trying to convert .dwg files created from Autocad 2006 Lite to .pdf files. However, when i try to open the .dwg files an error pops up that says "Could not find the application that created this file: (file path here) Please select a file created by an application that resides on your computer."
The program that created the file is definately on the computer. Any advice? Thanks, Ray.

Yes, but i was hoping to be able to convert multiple files through acrobat rather than plot one at a time through autocad. thanks.

Help with installation of Adobe Acrobat 10

I installed the adobe cs5.5 premium on my laptop and it was fine, I got a virus lost everything and had to restore my computer back to factory settings. I reloaded Cs5.5 and everything loaded except Acrobat. I have tried to do it in safe mode, taken off all of the other Adobe components and tried to load it still nothing. I can not get acrobat to load. I really need it, please help.

Can you post the ehtire error message? I am not familiar with error 7, but there is an Exit Code 7. If that is what you are encountering, see the link below:

Need help with Review feature in Acrobat X

Folks,
I am unable to send a PDF document for Email review using COMMENT feature in Acrobat X. I am not sure if it is failing due to document rights issue or email application configuration. Can someone help me troubleshoot?
Regards,

You didn't say what error message you are getting or your email application. If it's an email issue, you might see an error message that says Adobe is unable to connect to your email program. Probably due to MAPI settings/ your email client. Outlook should work, web-based apps (Gmail) probably won't without some 3rd party add-in.
If is a rights-issue, go to File/Properties/Security and see if there are any restrictions on the file.

Help with installation error 1335 -- Acrobat XI Pro

This weekend I've attempted to install a purchased copy of Acrobat XI Pro to a machine running Windows XP SP3. Each time I received the error "error 1335 Data1.cab file is corrupt...". This happened 3 times, including with the anti-virus and firewall software turned off. This morning however, the same disk installed on a machine running Windows 7. Is there any way to work around this error on the XP machine (we've purchased additional licenses from Univ. of Oklahoma IT Store)?

What would you be looking to download? You can download Acrobat XI Pro as a trial from the product section of the Adobe site if that is what you mean.
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro.html
You can also download it directly (no download assistant) from the page linked below as long as you follow the Very Important Instructions detailed on that page:

Trouble With Password Encryption in Acrobat 8.1 Professional

Can someone suggest a solution or are you experiencing the same problem? Each time I g
o to password encrypt, I get an erro message saying that 8.1 encountered an error and is closing.
This happens several seconds after clicking on the passord radio button.

Not that silly; but you ideally shouldn't be trying. Although there are some rudimentary (and sometimes unpredictable) editing tools in Acrobat, (I presume you are trying with the TouchUp Object tool as well as the TouchUp Text ?) much better to get it right in the source application and think of the pdf as what it basically is...a print.
For whatever reason, v5 could edit text positioning rather more easily than the later versions.

Need help with reviewing in acrobat professional 8.0

Hi,
I need help with reviewing in adobe acrobat professional 8.0 for windows.
When I click in Edit->Preferences->Reviewing I choose Network folder and in browse button I select the network folder.
It´s ok, but when I restart the computer, the configuration of reviewing dissapear.
Any sugestion for solve this problem?

The closest I came was:
// Custom calculation script
(function () {
    // Get the field values, as strings
    var s1 = getField("Charged").valueAsString;
    var s2 = getField("Reduction").valueAsString;
    // Perform the calculation if both fields are not blank
    // and Charged is not zero
    if (s1 && s2 && +s1 !== 0) {
        event.value = 100 * (+s1 - +s2) / +s1;
    } else {
        event.value = "";
which I got from another thread. It works, but the result tends to have a - before the number. Also when I use the formatting in acrobat and select percentage the decimal placement gets confusing. I'm creating this form for a bunch of morons in my HR department so extraneous numbers makes them confused. I need the most simplified result possible.

Why don't AutoCAD drawings converted by Acrobat 9.1.2 Pro print?

I have been using Adobe Acrobat 6.01 Professional to make PDF files from my AutoCAD 2002 drawings. I email these PDF files to a client who prints them. My drawings are 2D with a 24 x 36 inch sheet size. The Adobe conversion buttons were automatically installed on my AutoCAD 2002 toolbar when installed Acrobat 6.01 Pro. When I would make a PDF file I went to the layout view of the drawing, and click the button “Convert to Adobe PDF”. Everything worked GREAT. I would email the PDF drawing files to the client, and they sent them to the printer and produced their hard copy drawings.
A few months ago I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium. After installing this suite my Acrobat 6.01 Pro was replaced by Acrobat 9.1 Pro, and the Adobe conversion buttons were removed from my AutoCAD 2002 toolbar. I now have to either try to create the PDF files from within Acrobat 9.1 Pro, or from within AutoCAD by selecting Adobe PDF as my plot device and plotting them. A PDF file is created with either method which can be opened and viewed as a normal, but neither will print on my client’s printer. When sent to the printer they get a “parsing error.” Also these PDF files are about half the megs of those created by using the conversion buttons on the AutoCAD toolbar for Acrobat 6.01 Pro.
I have up dated Acrobat 9.1 Pro to Acrobat 9.1.2 Pro, and do like the many new features. I set up the recourse path for the text, plot, and styles in Acrobat 9.1.2 Pro. Nothing I tried fixed the problem, so I uninstalled Acrobat 9.1.2 Pro and reinstalled Acrobat 6.01 Pro. Everything is back to normal, and the Adobe conversion buttons are back on my AutoCAD 2002 toolbar?
I would like to be able to use Acrobat 9.1.2 Pro because of its new features, but Acrobat 6.01 Pro and Acrobat 9.1.2 Pro can’t exist on my computer at the same time. Is there a fix for Acrobat 9.1.2 Pro? Is there a way to get the Adobe conversion buttons back on my AutoCAD 2002 toolbar? What am I doing wrong? I’m running Windows XP and have read about Acrobat 9 Pro includes a Windows-only PDFMaker for AutoCAD. Supposedly PDFMaker runs inside of AutoCAD, but will it run inside of AutoCAD 2002? Is PDFMaker inside of folder with Acrobat 9.1.2 Pro? HELP.

Over the weekend I wiped my hard drive and did a total clean instal of Leopard (not Snow Leopard) - total clean meaning I had to find all my serial numbers when reinstalling apps. A lot of work.
The problems with InDesign have cleared up, but my Acrobat problem remains. However, I have isolated the problem: it occurs after I have done an "Examine document..." and removed all metadata and other stuff, then resaved the file. I close the saved file and the file closes leaving an empty window (same as a Microsoft Windows window). The little clock mouse icon spins wildly around (forever), I tell Acrobat to either close this window or quit, and it crashes.
Acrobat closes other "unexamined" documents without any problems and thus I have been able to save my toolbars...
Anyone else have this crashing problem? Does anyone have a solution?
Note: if anyone else does a total reinstal of Leopard from Snow Leopard then export your iCal calendars first. They were the only things I lost and this loss was (fortunately) no big deal as they were backed up elsewhere in Leopard.

Help with Custom calculation script in Acrobat 8

Hi all, I am using acrobat 8 on OS 10.5
I am trying to add certain fields (numbers) and then subtract another field value to give an end result.
I don't know anything about Javascript, would anyone be able to help with any info on how I achieve this result? I can only see Add, x and average etc... nothing there for subtraction
Thanks for any help in advance
Swen

This should get you started:
>if (event) {
// get values from two text fields
var a = Number(this.getField('Text1').value);
var b = Number(this.getField('Text2').value);
// subtract the values and show it
this.event.target.value = a - b;
Place this in a 3d text field, as a Custom Calculation Script.

Help with complex Acrobat forms

Hi Everyone,
Background: I worked with another developer and completed a form for one of our clients but I need to know if the below change requests are even possible and if so if anyone would like to help with finishing the form. I am definitely willing to pay for an experts services as long as this can be done in a timely manner.
What the form is - Our client wants a form that has text fields, drop down boxes and pages where images can be placed into the file and arrows drawn on it to point where the images are located on other images (some images are store layout maps). They would like to send this file out to their store managers, have them fill it in and then they would like the completed forms sent back so all of the information that was filled in (names, store names, addresses, square footage, etc) can be gathered into a database or excel file.
What is completed so far
- Cascading drop down boxes (user clicks on first drop down and whatever is selected changes the second drop down options, etc)
- Most of the text fields for information gathering including city, state, store manager etc
- Metric unit conversion boxes
- Header text fields (read only) are used on several of the pages and are a combination of choices made in the drop down boxes and text fields.
- Page footer info including page number
- The over all layout of the pages is set
Requested changes/additions
Major must have:
- Page Addition - There is a product page in the form (page 10) and the different stores will have a different number of these products to enter into the form so is there a way to add an ADD PAGE button on the page that when pressed will copy the product page to make a new product page? Now the product page has cascading drop down form fields on it so I would want to make sure the form fields are separate iterations of the form fields not just a duplicate of what was on the product page.
- Footer adjustments - If we can do the above of adding pages then is it possible to at that point adjust the footer to reflect the page number changes? The footer shows the current page number then the form name and date.
- Gather info - What is the best way to distribute these forms so that when returned completed the information can be gathered? I tried distributing via email which seems to work ok but the files might end up being too large for email so what is the best way to gather the completed info if say the files were ftp'd back?
Minor:
There are several minor change requests that I know are doable or that if not possible we can disregard. One that I am not sure about is if the color of the arrows in Acrobat can be changed from the default red?
At first I was assuming that the Clients that get the forms needed Acrobat Standard or Pro 8 or 9 because I thought that the only way to add images was to use the Touch-Up Tool under advanced tools and right click to Place images. However I am pretty sure that if Reader Rights is enabled that images can be copy pasted into the file too if this is incorrect please let me know.
If the above is not doable or if there is a better solution other than Acrobat forms to gather client information including allow the client to add images and place arrows then please let me know your thoughts.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated and again id like to commission this out to anyone who is up for the challenge.
Thanks in advance
Jason

Perhaps a better question is does anyone know a good developer?

Acrobat reader hangs opening pdf created with autocad

Hi all,
when I try to open a pdf file created with autocad, Acrobat Reader hangs and I can't do anything else then kill the process. Now I use Acrobat Reader 9.5.5. I've insatlled also Acrobat Reader XI, but the problem persists. It seems it is very slow to process the file. If file has few graphics after some minutes I can see it and zoom in, but if file is has a lot of graphics, acrobat hangs. Any suggestions?

Hi Robert,
I am so sorry for the inconvenience caused & will try my best to get this issue resolved.
I will recommend you to upgrade your Adobe reader to Adobe Acrobat Reader DC on your Samsung Note 3 mobile phone and then try to view the pdf files. You can download it for free from the Google app. store or you can refer to this link Acrobat Reader DC Learn & Support.
Let me know if you still experience the same issue.
Regards,
Aadesh

I purchased Adobe Acrobat x Pro recently and installed it, I have compatibility issues vision 2013. The adobe pdf converter plug in stays inactive despite all my efforts to activate it, I need help with this? How can i get the plug in

I purchased Adobe Acrobat x Pro recently and installed it, I have compatibility issues vision 2013. The adobe pdf converter plug in stays inactive despite all my efforts to activate it, I need help with this? How can i get the plug in to work with Visio 2013?

For MS Visio (any version) only the appropriate version of Acrobat *PRO* provides PDFMaker for Visio.
For Visio 2013 specifically you must have Acrobat XI Pro (updated to at least 11.0.1).

Need Help with Javascript for Acrobat Pro 9

Hello,
I am creating a PDF form in Adobe Acrobat Profession 9. Not having a lot of experience with Javascript, I have found this forum very helpful and have used many of the script examples for other issues I have had. I was hoping someone could help with the following script, I have tried many variations, cannot get it to work.
var ratio = this.getField("ratio").value
var concentration = this.getField("concentration").value
var result = this.getField("result").value
if(ratio.value>=50.00)
{result.value ='PASS';}
if(ratio.value".value>=40.00)
{result.value ='PASS';}
if((concentration.value ==61) && (ratio.value >= 49.25))
{result.value ='PASS';}
if((concentration.value ==61) && (ratio.value >= 39.25))
{result.value ='PASS';}
if((concentration.value ==62) && (ratio.value >= 48.50))
{result.value ='PASS';}
if((concentration.value ==62) && (ratio.value >= 38.50))
{result.value ='PASS';}
else
{result.value = 'FAIL';}
This is just a piece of the code The concentration values run from 61 through 99 and the ratio value varies for each concentration value, there is a high ratio and a low ratio. The result of this field with populate the results field with a PASS or FAIL. This is not working......any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks George. I updated the script to:
// Get a reference to the result field
var ratio = this.getField("ratio");
// Get a reference to the result field
var concentration = this.getField("concentration");
// Get a reference to the result field
var result = this.getField("result");
if(ratio.value>=50.00)
{result.value ='PASS';}
if(ratio.value >=40.00)
{result.value ='PASS';}
if((concentration.value ==61) && (ratio.value >= 49.25))
{result.value ='PASS';}
if((concentration.value ==61) && (ratio.value >= 39.25))
{result.value ='PASS';}
if((concentration.value ==62) && (ratio.value >= 48.50))
{result.value ='PASS';}
if((concentration.value ==62) && (ratio.value >= 38.50))
{result.value ='PASS';}
else
{result.value = 'FAIL';}
However, I am still getting a FAIL result even when the ratio is 50.00 or equal to the passable ratio.

Need help with a activation code for Adobe Acrobat X Standard for my PC,, Don't have older version serial numbers, threw programs away, only have Adobe Acrobat X Standard, need a code to unlock program?

Need help with a activation code for Adobe Acrobat X Standard for my PC, Don't have older Version of Adobe Acrobat 9, 8 or 7.

You don't need to install the older version, you only need the serial number from your original purchase. If you don't have them to hand, did you register? If so, they should be in your Adobe account. If not you really need to contact Adobe, though it isn't clear they will be able to do anything without some proof of purchase etc.
