How do I create PDF so that user can insert a placed file using Acrobat Reader

I have just upgraded to CS4 which has Adobe Acrobat Pro. I am creating PDF's within Pro, adding text fields and buttons for customers to access and fill in using Adobe Reader. This has worked great but I would also like to add a box with text saying 'insert logo here' and when the customer clicks on it then searches their system for the logo, selects and places within the PDF. Can anyone help me on this one?

  • Problem reopening and/or refreshing PDF files using Acrobat Reader V. 8.0

    I upgraded to Adobe Acrobat Reader V. 8.0 and have encountered problems refreshing PDF files in the Safari 2.0.4 browser when I am logged into the secure area for Value Line Publishing. Some of the PDF Files in this area can be opened and/or refreshed multiple times. Other PDF files in this area allow me to open them once. I cannot reopen those previously viewed files (or refresh the screen) -- after refreshing, the window changes to a blank white screen, and the files do not reopen.
    I am perplexed because I do not have difficulty refreshing the PDF files (within Safari) using the native PDF viewer, I did not have problems refreshing files using Acrobat Reader V. 7.0 and I do not appear to have problems refreshing PDF files using Acrobat Reader V. 8.0 when I am outside the secure area or on other web sites.
    I have replaced the Acrobat Reader plug-in, manually removed all remnants of previous versions of Acrobat Reader and reinstalled V. 8.0. and I also upgraded from Mac OS 10.4.8 to 10.4 9, all to no avail.
    I can clear the Safari cache files as a temporary solution, but I encounter the same difficulties with the “problematic” files once they have been opened again.
    I can also download the PDF files to my hard drive and refresh them multiple times within Safari and also using Acrobat Reader V. 8.0
    The software personnel at Value Line Publishing have investigated their system and have referred me back to Apple. Has anyone heard of similar problems associated with Adobe Acrobat Reader V. 8.0 used in conjunction with Safari 2.0.4?

    Hi Rodney
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    This sounds like one of those "oddities", contributed to by a few sources.
    I can clear the Safari cache files as a temporary solution, but I encounter the same difficulties with the “problematic” files once they have been opened again.
    Wondering if you disabled the Safari Cache would the refresh function work correctly? As a test you can disable the Safari Cache by Emptying the Cache first via the Safari menu, then Quit Safari. Now go to the Finder>Your User Library>Caches>Safari. Single click on the Safari folder, then Apple Key + I to open Info panel. There, check the "locked" box. This prevents further additions to the cache. The downside, you lose your ability to upload images etc. within Safari (my cache is disabled, so I use Firefox for the uploads).
    Then restart Safari. Try the PDF from within Safari.

  • How do I create a slide where users can upload a file to server or email a file?

    Could anyone guide me in how I could go about creating a slide where users can either email a file or upload it to my server?
    Any help would be greatly appriciated...
    Steve

    Hello,
    Welcome to Adobe Forums.
    I am not sure how you can Upload a file, you might need a Javascript.
    You can create a slide and a button of that slide can call the default Email client (MS Outlook, Outlook Express....)
    1) On  you Slide insert a button (Insert -> Standard Object -> Button
    2) Double Click on that button and select "Open URL or file" for On Success (Under Properties Inspector)
    3) Write "mailto:[email protected]" in the URL box (For Example : [email protected])
    4) Publish the result, when you click on the button, it will call the default mail client.
    Screenshot :
    Note : This might not work if you have a Network Security which do not allow calling Mail Client through a Script (Clicking of Button calls the script)
    Thanks,
    Vikram

  • I am using a code based typesetting program (not WYSISYG) that outputs PDFs. I am producing 100 plus pages that have multiple graphics on each page. I need to know how to format a PDF command that I can incllude in my programming that will tag my graphics

    I am using a code based typesetting program (not WYSISYG) that outputs PDFs. I am producing 100 plus pages that have multiple graphics on each page. I need to know how to format a PDF command that I can incllude in my programming that will tag my graphics with "Alternative Text".
    I know that with a Microsoft product graphics can be tagged before a PDF is made. I need to know how to do this with my programming.

    The Acrobat SDK might be a starting point.
    From there, perhaps a plug-in (built with C+).
    Perhaps with a licensed release of a PDF Library (this could be $$).
    The viable and cost effective alternative is use the tried and true.
    Authoring in an appropriate authoring application with appropriate tag management.
    Example:  Adobe InDesign; Adobe FrameMaker or MS Word with PDFMaker (comes with install of Acrobat).
    This way you place "Alternative Text" when mastering content in the authoring file.
    Going the route and with some look-see (research) you may find programmatic approaches to placing the alt txt in the authoring file.
    Note: as discussed in the Matterhorn Protocols there is no programmatic method that provides a fully accessible PDF (specifically, that is an ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant PDF).
    Regardless, here you have a sub-forum for discussions on Acrobat usage.
    Consequently discussions on/of 3rd party software is rather out of scope eh.
    Be well...

  • Can't view PDF files using Acrobat Reader X

    We made many PDF files available on our Web site. In the past few weeks we noticed that users who were using Acrobat Reader X and Internet Explorer 8 or 9 were not able to view some PDF files. Basically, when they clicked a link to display a PDF file, the screen would be cleared and the status bar showing "Loading ...KB/...K/B" would be displayed. The status bar would move a bit and then got stuck. The PDF file would never be displayed. Sometimes, my users could click the Back button to go back the previous Web page and sometimes they had to close or kill the IE window. Small PDF files seemed to be fine. I was able to repeat this problem on PCs running Windows XP and Windows 7. I also tested clicking the same PDF files with PCs installed with Acrobat Reader 9 and I was not able to cause the problem to occur, so I am pretty sure that this problem is related to Acrobat Reader X. I also noticed that if I unchecked the "Display PDF in browser"  option in Acrobat Reader X so that PDF files would not be displayed inside the Internet Explorer window, I would be able to view all PDF files without any problems.
    I also did an experiment by resaving many PDF files using Acrobat Pro (Reduce File Size...) to be compatible with Acrobat 8 or above. I was able to open these PDF files using Acrobat Reader X but when I used a PC with Acrobat 9, it would get stuck instead. Most of my PDF files were created a long time ago and we usually made it compatible with Acrobat 5 or above.
    I saw that some people reported some problems with Acrobat Reader X but I did not see a solution except uninstalling Acrobat Reader X and installing an old version of Acrobat Reader instead. Anyone has any ideas why this is happening and how to fix this problem?

    Sounds like you got the trial of Acrobat. Go to add/remove programs, get rid of it, the download the free Reader from http://get.adobe.com/reader/

  • Open multiple pdf files using Acrobat Reader?

    Can we open and switch between multiple pdf files using Acrobat Reader?

    Of course, but if it's Reader X or later each file will appear in its own window. This can't be changed.

  • How do I compress a pdf with Create PDF so that I can attach it to e-mail?

    How do I compress a pdf with Create PDR so that I can attach it to e-mail?

    Hi, Blue Mamba.
    Your file is automatically compressed when using the CreatePDF service to convert from some other file type (e.g. Word, Excel) to PDF. For example, most PowerPoint files get compressed 50% to 90% over their original size.
    If there is a particular file you're converting to PDF using the CreatePDF service, and you are not seeing the size savings that you would like, please provide more details.
    Thanks.

  • Error opening PDF files using Acrobat Reader 9

    I use Acrobat Reader 9 to view PDF files. I have Windows XP operating system on my machine.
    In order to view encrypted PDF files on our company webiste we have to install FileOpenInstaller.exe or FIleOpenInstaller.msi which is Adobe Component
    Therewas no issue viewing/accessing the PDF files until last week. But now we get below error when we try to open encrypted PDF files from our company website.
    The error message is "Unable to get server data [FO error #2114, OS error #0)
    Any idea what could be the cause of error?
    Is anyone aware of any possible issue with Adobe FileOpenInstaller.exe or FIleOpenINstaler.msi packages

    I have just installed Adobe Reader 9. I am getting frequent system hangs (cannot do anything without cold re-boot) when using the product, in particular when using forms documents provided by Companies House, a UK government agency.

  • How do I create a slideshow that I can click somewhere to change slides

    I want to create a slideshow to use as part of a presentation, that I can click  somewhere to bring on the next slide when I'm ready, rather than have a fixed slide or fade duration  - analagous to what I would do in a Power Point presentation. I can't find a way to do that. Please help.
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Richard,
    You might want to take a look at SlideShowPro:
    http://slideshowpro.net/
    More specifically, SlideShowPro for Lightroom:

    In my opinion, it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.

  • HT5361 how do I create a group (that I can use over and over) in email

    I would like to create a group of email addresses that I can use over and over.  Can I do that in mail?

    You do that in Contacts. Mail will then fill in the group when you type the group name in Mail.
    Contacts/File/New Group, then select the cards you want and drag them into the group.

  • Creating a DVD that you can select specific tracks to play.. (read on)

    I am wanting to create a DVD that has say for example 10 individual buttons for the 10 different videos (tracks), but want to be able to select just the videos I want to watch out of the 10, for example videos 1, 5 and 8.
    Is there a way that this can be done in DVD SP? I know i've seen it done of other training/lesson DVDs where you can go back to videos you want to specifically look at rather than having to skip to the ones you are after.
    So simply, is there some kind of script or something to help me achieve this?
    Many thanks,
    Ryan

    As Drew said - follow that link and you'll get a few files to download that will help. You are describing a video jukebox and this is not at all easy, by any stretch of the imagination. It involves scripting at a pretty high level, using bit based maths.
    Having said that, the tutorial from the link should get you heading in the right direction. Come back and let us know if you need more help with it.

  • I am unable to read pdf files using Acrobat Reader on my MAC OS X. Any suggestions?

    How do I read pdf files using my MAC OS X?

    You can read pdf files with preview. Select a pdf document, right click on it, and choose Preview. You can also get info and select to choose Preview for all.
    You can also install Adobe Reader 10.1.3 for Lion. It will also install a plug-in to read pdf docs in the browser.

  • How do i create permanent javascripts that do not have to be run using the javascript console

    I have written a code that adds footers to the bottom of an adobe pdf and i have been running that code from the adobe console.  I would like to create a permanent script that can be called from the edit tab and will ask for two user inputs and run without opening the console

    yes, however i do not have adobe pro so i added the show console:
    app.addMenuItem({cName:"Show Console",cParent:"Edit",cExec:"console.show()"});
    and i would like to add:
    app.addMenuItem({cName:"Add Footer",cParent:"Edit",cExec:"addFooter()"});
    however i am unsure how to make add footer run as an independent function or if it should be a subroutine and furthermore where it needs to be saved?

  • Create a form that user can fill online, print and not save.

    I have form that I want user to fill out. I want them to send it via email or print and not save the information that was typed into it.
    Where or how do you put that type of security?
    Thank you!
    Jim Z

    through adobe policy server you can give only online access to the document(means that document will not be opened unless user is authenticated with the policy server) and assign policy to user to restrict him only printing and filling in form fields.
    Also you can revoke that document after sometime.
