Hiding the floating toolbar acrobat reader x

Hello
We have developed software that displays pdf documents on the screen for validation by the user before printing. We need to be able to manage the "print" action within our software and with the new floating toolbar this has become impossible. I can find no trace anywhere on the net of how to display documents without the floating toolbar other thn by configuring each of our client installations which is not an option.
Can anyone help ?
Many thanks

Hi Dave
Thank you very much for such a prompt and courteous reply.
My enquiry was prompted by our having to revisit a range of products we
developed using Adobe Director and the INM Impressario Xtra. We are very
excited by the potential of AIR, Acrobat X Portfolios and Flash Builder but
rather shame-faced for having come to them rather late. No matter, better
late than never.
Your explanation is very helpful as it will help us offer explanations to
our clients. I am sure they can be persuaded given the larger benefits.
Yours
Ian

  • How do I remove the floating toolbar in a C# program

    Hello,
    I am trying to find out how to remove the floating toolbar in a Winforms C# .NET app. I'm using the
    axAcroPDF control. The toolbar (the floating one) I would like to remove. I have tried the .setShowToolbar() function,
    but this does not work.
    Please help with this as it is very important that this toolbar does not show.
    Thanks
    Mike

    I found a way (sort of) to disable read mode:

  • I installed Acrobat XI pro on a Mac but it only shows the features of acrobat reader - how do I activate the pro features?

    How do I get Acrobat XI pro on a Mac to work fully, and not just act like Acrobat Reader. i just paid and downloaded it, entered new serial number when requested, but when I open a .pdf I have no pro features showing (such as editing tools, convert to powerpoint, etc). I use XI pro on a windows PC and have no problem there.

    Perfect answer. And I feel a bit dumb (should have worked it out, but still finding my way round the Mac). Many thansk for the help.

  • I'VE CREATED A FORM WITH IMAGES. WHEN I OPEN THE FILE IN ACROBAT READER, THE IMAGES ARE BALCK BOXES!

    I'VE CREATED A FORM WITH IMAGES. WHEN I OPEN THE FILE IN ACROBAT READER THE IMAGES ARE BLACK BOXES.
    THE FORM HAs (extend features to acrobat reader). THE FORM WAS DISTRIBUTED.
    NON OF MY EMPOYEES CAN SEE THE IMAGES. WHAT'S WRONG? CAN YOU HELP?

    However, the view large images is an issue for a form that is being distributed. Either a note needs to be added to the PDF to tell how to enable the view or the images need to be changed so that the enabling is not needed.

  • How can I print a protected pdf file if I know the password in Acrobat Reader 9?

    Hi,
    I have just received a password protected PDF file (Password isn't for opening the file, but to change security settings like copying, editing etc. only). I have the password for the file, but have no idea as to where I should enter this password in Adobe Acrobat Reader 9?
    Someone pls give me the steps to find the password field in Adobe Acrobat reader 9 to enter this password.
    Hope I don't need Adobe Acrobat 9.0 for this and reader would suffice?
    Thanks in advance.

    You can change the protection with Adobe Acrobat and the password. Not possible with only Adobe Reader.

  • Extract data from the fields in Acrobat Reader 7.0 using VB

    I am looking for a way to extract fields values from the pdf file using VBA for Excel. I have Acrobat Reader 7.0. I have a script that would extract fields values from the PDF using Aformaut.fields.... But this script only works with Acrobat.Standard or PRO. When I am trying to instantiate/create Aformaut.app object I am getting an error message stating that ActiveX cannot create such object. Please advise.

    Five months have passed, so it's unlikely this reply will help the
    original poster. But should anyone be searching the archives, here's a
    reply anyway.
    Aformaut.app is part of Acrobat Professional. You have to buy that,
    you can't script this in the free Adobe Reader.

  • Close both the PDF and Acrobat Reader from Javascript

    Hello,
    I'm working on a C++ project which at some point open a PDF (using the ShellExecute function).
    I coded some javascript in this PDF with Life Cycle Designer to print its content and finally close it automatically using event.target.closeDoc().
    The problem is that just the PDF is closed but not Acrobat Reader.
    I need Reader to be also terminated, to catch the end of process signal in my C++ program and to continu the execution.
    Do have any idea if there is a javascript function to close Reader?
    Thank you very much!

    Hi John,
    After a lot of research and tests, I didn't find the solution. You can't close Acrobat Reader from a pdf. (for security reasons; It's like you are not allowed to closed a browser with a javascript function).
    Finally we moved to the PDF library C++ SDK, so Reader is no more opening, but we had to pay for that...

  • Where can I download the plugins for Acrobat Reader X

    In particular, the plugin called: "weblink" is not loaded causing all live links in pdfs being read by the Reader to not work in a browser.

    The plugins are part of the Adobe Reader X installation.

  • Reader X - Floating Toolbar in Browser not functional

    Using Reader X in "recent" Firefox version and IE 9 with Windows 7. When viewing a PDF in either browser, none of the icons in the floating toolbar respond. The cursor arrow changes shape during the rollover of the icons, but clicking on them (print, save, page up/down, etc) yields no response whatsoever. Any ideas? Behavior is with 2 of 2 browsers and all websites tested. Isolated to a single user. Thanks!

    I read the very long thread at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3295855#3295855 discussing the exact problem with Reader X and an older version of Firefox.  Although several comments mentioned changing the zoom level to 100% from something greater, I initially thought they were referring to the zoom within the Reader window.  When I finally realized that they were referring to the display properties, I changed that back to 100% and the controls now work.
    Although this problem has been happening to me on a custom-built rig, my display is a Dell U2412M.  I think at least one other commenter in the other thread mentioned Dell, so perhaps the problem is with the Dell display driver -- where increasing the magnification causes Adobe to "see" mouse presence someplace other than where it actually is.  Strage -- and this behavior doesn't appear to affect other apps..
    The solution in comment 116 by solution_finder_123 works!!!.  Right-click on the shortcut to Reader in the Win 7 Start Menu and select "Disable display scaling on high DPS settings" on Compatibility tab.
