How to open pdf in acrobat reader in read mode by default?

Thanks for your quick feedbacks.

PDL,
Am getting the Error "No form is open in the Acrobat viewer" while trying to instantiate fields list inside the form via an AcroForms object. The problematic code snippet is given below
iPDDoc->Open("PDFFileName")
iAVDoc->AttachDispatch(PDDoc->OpenAVDoc("PDFFileName")), true);
ipFormApp->CreateDispatch("AFormAut.App", &OleExc)
i pFields = new IFields(pFormApp->GetFields());
The GetFields method is giving error in Acrobat 9 but its working fine in Acrobat 7 and 8.
Since the AV layer methods are working fine in Acrobat 7 and 8, please let me know why they are not working in Acrobat 9 and if there is any workaround.
Also, if I use only PD Layer methods, can I access the form fields inside the PDF?

How to open pdf in Acrobat Reader in Firefox window/Tab when both Acrobat Pro and Acrobat REader are

I would like to open pdf files in firefox using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
I have both Acrobat Pro or whatever its called and Acrobat Reader installed.
Presently going to firefox's tools, options, then selecting the file types option I cannot select any plugin to open my pdf's besides what's labeled as "adobe acrobat" but which executes an in-tab instance of Adobe Acrobat Pro, despite the ambiguous language on the plugin which I suspect stems from Adobe's evolving and confusing conventions regarding just what Adobe Reader, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Acrobat Reader, and Adobe Acrobat Pro really is.
Anyways, how to make pdfs open in-tab instances of Adobe Acrobat Reader while I have both the Reader and the Pro installed?
Is there a sepperate plugin I need or something?
Any help is very Appreciated

eh,
The problem w/ acrobat is that it takes forever to load
I was going to just use reader to read documents, and acrobat to edit, so I could gut reader of all the plugins worthless for 99.9999 of pdfs I use and it'll load fast.
foxit is nice, but won't open in-browser despite their continuing claims of supporting this feature.
That's so bizarre that adobe won't allow you to choose which one you want to run. Its installed as sepperate programs on the uninstall list, on the "open with" context menu, and w/ file associations, so why would it not be possible to only open pdf links w/ one?
Maybe its time to abandon acrobat and just use reader. There's much cheaper programs w/ all the same functionality as acrobat, so I guess I'll move on to those.
If anyone else has suggestions feel free to make em.

How to open PDF in Acrobat 9 without displaying the Acrobat window

Am using IAC in Windows XP via VC++ to open and modify PDFs in memory without displaying the Acrobat window so as to the PDF Processing in the background. To open the PDF, have to call the method PDDoc.OpenAVDoc which opens the Acrobat window for displaying the document.
As a workaround, I tried to minimize and hide the Acrobat viewer, using the AcroApp.Minimize and AcroApp.Hide methods. However opening, minimizing and hiding the viewer is creating a flickering effect (Acrobat window coming and going) especially when a no of PDFs have to be processed in a loop.
If I use only PDDoc.Open without the call to OpenAVDoc, am getting an error "No form is open in the Acrobat viewer".
Can anyone suggest a workaround to open and process PDFs in memory without displaying the PDF.

If it's just particular documents and not all documents, you can deselect the following user preference: Edit > Preferences > Documents > Allow documents to hide the menu bar, toolbars, and window controls

I am trying to open pdf in Pro and not Reader. Please advise how I can fix this.

Eric-
FYI, this is a forum for storage and sharing...photoshop.com and revel. If you have acrobat issues you might want to make a note of the other forums:
http://forums.adobe.com shows a list of all of them, and specifically http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat this one for Acrobat
But, since I have had this same issue myself...
On Windows, locate your pdf document. Right click it and select "open with". Select Adobe Acrobat. That should do it. On MAC, I'm not sure but I'm guessing there is a similar setting.
Good luck.

How put some PDFs in Acrobat Reader on iPad ? On the Adobe Cloud ?

How put some PDFs in Acrobat Reader on iPad ? On the Adobe Cloud ?
Thanks !!

pierreswaggy,
If you have a PDF document opened in some other app on your iPad/iPhone, you can use the "Open In" feature to open it in Adobe Reader for iOS.
For iPad, see How to open PDF documents in Adobe Reader for iOS (iPad on iOS 7 or 8 version)
For iPhone, see How to open PDF documents in Adobe Reader for iOS (iPhone on iOS 7 or 8 version)
If you have PDF documents on your Mac or Windows desktop/notebook computer, you can use Acrobat.com (cloud storage) to share them with your computer(s) and mobile device(s).
On your Mac/Windows computer
Open a web browser.
Go to Acrobat.com (https://cloud.acrobat.com).
Sign in with your Adobe ID.
Upload your files to Acrobat.com.
You can also use the desktop version of Acrobat or Adobe Reader to open a PDF document from Acrobat.com or save to Acrobat.com. Please check the File menu or the toolbar for the options.
On your iPad/iPhone
Launch Adobe Reader for iOS.
Go to the Reader home screen.
Tap My Account (in the lower left corner).
Sign in with your Adobe ID.
Tap Acrobat.com in the left pane to see the files on Acrobat.com in Reader.
If you have a lot of large PDF documents on your computer, it would be easier and faster to transfer them to your iPad/iPhone at once (instead of one document at a time) using iTunes.
See How to transfer PDF documents from your computer to your iPad/iPhone.
The documents transferred to your iPad/iPhone using iTunes will appear in the Documents section. Because they are stored locally on your iPad/iPhone. Please note that any locally stored documents will be erased by iOS, if you uninstall (instead of update) the Reader app.
Please let us know if you have additional questions or any problems.

Opening PDFs in Acrobat XI Outside Chrome Browser

Acrobat XI
From Google Chrome, I would like to open a PDF which automatically opens Acrobat outside Chrome i.e. inside Acrobat itself.
I do not want to first save the PDF and then open it.
I want Chrome to download and then open the PDF in Acrobat.
Acrobat 9 would do this. How do you do this in Acrobat XI?
Thanks in advance.

Windows 7 Pro 64-Bit SP1
Chrome Version 37.0.2062.103 m
Acrobat XI v11.0.08
Chrome Browser & Acrobat
"To have Chrome download PDFs instead of displaying them in the browser,
shift-click Disable for the currently enabled viewer.
This leaves both viewer plug-ins disabled so the PDFs won't display in the browser."
There are two plugins shown via "chrome://plugins/".
Adobe Reader - Version: 11.0.8.4
Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape 11.0.8
Only one plugin can be enabled at a time.
If you disable one, the other automatically becomes enabled.
This behavior is not intuitive.
If either is enabled, the PDF will appear in the Chrome browser.
To open PDFs in Acrobat XI outside the Chrome Browser, you must disable both plugins.
To disable both plugins, Shift-Click Disable the enabled plugin.
This will disable both plugins.
Using Shift-Click Disable is not intuitive behavior.
Now when you click on a PDF on a web page, the Chrome browser will not have a plugin to handle the PDF so it will bring up a Save dialog box.
Go ahead and save the PDF somewhere like Downloads.
The Chrome browser will show at the bottom of the browser window a reference to the downloaded PDF.
In the drop-list, select "Always open this file type".
Now PDFs open in Acrobat XI outside the Chrome browser.

How to open -pdf in a secure environment

Opening PDF files from a secured account on Internet (e.g. telephone billing info) does not work. in Safe as the file is shown as _pdf (underscore instead of dot). We suspect this problem started after installing CS6, but are not sure. Win 7, IE 9, Reader XI

PDF on a regular website can be opened and downloaded. However, PDF on a secure website (https) looks normal with normal icon but double click gives screen for open / save / save as. ‘Open’ gives no result, no error message either. ‘Save’ or ‘save as’ shows screen with filename ending on _pdf, which cannot be opened or saved, no error messages either. Changing the filename into .pdf gives the same reaction: nothing happens, no error messages.
The same files can be opened on a different PC win7, IE9, Reader XI and similar software, but without CS6.

How to open pdf files in browser using flex

hi,
my project is having a Document explorer wchich contains pdf
files,iwant to open it in the browser.can any one tell me how to
open pdf documents using flex programming(i tried with different
thing like swf's but my client wants only pdf formatt).

Another option is by calling a JSP page. This example will
open a pdf file into a new browser without displaying the download
"save" prompt.
Function to call the JSP:
private function downloadFlyer(event:Event):void {
var jspLink:URLRequest = new
URLRequest("jsp/downloadpdf.jsp?fileName=Fundraiser_flyer_2008.pdf");
navigateToURL( jspLink, "_blank" );
JSP code:
<%@ page errorPage="error.jsp" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%
//Get the parameters
String downloadFileName=request.getParameter("fileName");
String fileName = application.getRealPath("/downloads/" +
downloadFileName);
File file = new File(fileName);
if (!file.exists()) {
throw new IOException("File does not exist.");
// Get the size of the file
long length = file.length();
// You cannot create an array using a long type.
// It needs to be an int type.
// Before converting to an int type, check
// to ensure that file is not larger than Integer.MAX_VALUE.
if (length > Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
throw new IOException("File too big.");
response.reset();
response.resetBuffer();
response.setContentType( "application/pdf" );
response.setHeader ("Content-Disposition", "filename=" +
downloadFileName);
//Prevent the Java error: "getOutputStream() has already
been called for this response"
out.clear();
out = pageContext.pushBody();
InputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
OutputStream output = response.getOutputStream();
try {
int curByte=-1;
while( (curByte=in.read()) !=-1){
output.write(curByte);
} catch (IOException ioe) {
ioe.printStackTrace(System.out);
} finally{
output.flush();
in.close();
response.flushBuffer();

I can't open pdf files even though adobe reader is downloaded.

I can't open pdf files even though adobe reader X1 is downloaded.

May seem like an obvious question but, did you install it after you downloaded it?
If so, how are you trying to open these files and what happens when you try?

Unfortunatly, most of the PDF questions I have seen recently aren't simply "How do I launch another application in Windows"
Edit: What Jeff and Dennis were getting at in their own way is that you can easily launch adobe reader to display a pdf if that is your only goal. See: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/68A6F2A00872837E862576940059C142
I am also quite certain you could find an ActiveX object that would just display PDFs as well.

How To Open PDF Attached file use CLIENT_HOST 11 g forms

How to open pdf file on client side at 11 g forms ?
when i open any attached (PDF )file on client side is not open those file open on server side plz guide me how to open those file on client machine using client host?
thanks

Where is the pdf you are trying to open? Is it on the server or the client? If the file is stored on the server then you can access it using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT assuming it is stored in a place that has a virtual mapping. For example:
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ('http://server/someLocation/file.pdf','_blank');If the file is on the client then you need to configure your application to use WebUtil. Then you can do what Francois suggested.

Hi Ram,
Following information might help you to resolve the issue.
After logging into Desktop Intelligence, you may be presented with a message stating:
u201CYou have received 1 document from users"
Examining the Inbox from within the Desktop Intelligence client shows no objects visible in your Inbox.
The object in your Inbox is in a format other than Desktop Intelligence format such as, PDF, XLS or other format. Therefore the object is not recognized by the Desktop Intelligence client inbox browser.
Log in to Info View or the Central Management Console, browse to your Inbox and verify the file name and format that has been sent to your Inbox. The object may be saved, copied, moved or deleted as necessary.
