I cann't find the"define" option in adobe reader when I read a PDF file in iPad 3.

I cann't find the "define" option in adobe reader when I read a PDF file in my iPad 3. I have already latest reader version and iOS 5.1.1 installed.

I believe that I figured it out.
holding finger over a word, will bring the copy/define menu
holding finger where there is NO text, empty space or image, will bring up the annotation menu.
but note that if you have a scanned document, where the words are actually an image, you will get the annotation menu, since there really is no text, just a bunch of pixels that look like text...
you can turn scanned text into "real" text by using OCR functionality of the desktop version of Acrobat Pro (not Reader), it would then create a layer of invisible text under the image of the text.

  • Need help finding the desktop applc of Adobe Reader for Palm OS

    Either I'm going blind, or Adobe just failed to include a download link for that Adobe Reader desktop application that takes care of converting regular PDF files to PDB files. I
    Here is Adobe Reader for Palm OS page, there you'll find a link to download a Free AR for the Palm OS, which installs a PRC file in your Palm, but there is no mention of its counter part application for the desktop

    WN,  thanks for the suggestion. I had just tried it actually. And it's a great alternative. But after using the other one, I can't help but notice how slow it is in my Palm TX. I think I would prefer to get the benefit of compressing/converting the files to PDBs. But no one seems to know where to get that application. I checked in my TX CD and I didn't find it.
    If your TX installation CD does not "auto-run" and present you with a menu to install additional software (including Adobe Reader for Palm), you can find it on the disc using Windows Explorer at:
    Palm CD > Int_English >  Essential_software > Adobe Reader for Palm
    In that folder is the installation (.exe) file which you run on your desktop.  It installs the desktop app, and the .prc file gets installed to the quick installer during the process.
    FYI...this software is slow and clunky on the handheld.  The conversion process is imperfect, and particularly with files which I have produced myself using Acrobat Distiller (the part of Adobe Acrobat which lets you "print" to the distiller to create a .pdf file from anything),  it sometimes doesn't even work.
    The best .pdf viewer I have used on my handhelds is actually the upgraded version of Documents To Go, which handles native .pdf files pretty well.  No conversion needed, just drop the files into your SD card, or Hotsync with Documents To Go desktop.

  • Where do I find the Customization Wizard for Adobe Reader XI?

    I went to this page:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/index.html
    In there, the Tune an installer prior to deployment section mentions the Customization Wizard, but the link points to ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/11.x/11.0.0/misc/, where there is only the ADM templates.
    When will this be available?

    Mac of Win?
    For Mac, please try this:  ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/mac/11.x/11.0.00/misc/
    The Win version is not ready yet.   We expect to have it ready in early November.

  • Signature option in Adobe Reader.

    Why is the signature option in Adobe Reader one "greyed out" for iPad users, you can no longer access your signatures and add them to a document ?

    Hi F & F,
    If you are really looking to create a cryptographically secure digital signature then you need to create a custom signature appearance. If on the other hand all you want to do is add a picture of your signature you need to create a custom stamp. In order to create a digital signature you need to have access to a digital ID (a public/private key pair), and before going through all of the steps of creating a custom signature appearance is this what you intend to do? If so then check out 4   Custom Signature Appearances — Digital Signatures Guide for IT for help in creating the signature appearance. If you just want to create a stamp then look at the tips at  Adobe Acrobat X Pro * Create a custom stamp.

  • My view options in Adobe Reader 11.0.10

    I would like to know the view options in Adobe Reader 11.0.10.
    I don't want the Bookmarks Pane to appear on the left side of the window.
    I don't want the Export PDF pane to appear in the right side of the window.
    If anyone has a suggestion, feel free to respond!

    On the right side of the window, the pane on the right side of the page says Fill & Sign Tools.  I want to hide this pane.  I don't see Fill & Sign Tools as an item in the View Menu or sub-menus.

    Could you tell me where I could find the system requirement about Adobe Reader patch 11.0.09?

    I will roll back the version of Adobe Reader from 11.0.09 to 11.0.07 and test the problem appear or not.

    You need to follow the steps in that article exactly, in particular:
    You must download and install a free app.
    To find a free app, navigate to the Top Charts column on the right side of the App Store window. Scroll down until you see the list of Free Apps. Select any app by clicking on it. Then click Free App underneath the app icon.
    In the pop-up window, click Create Apple ID.

  • When I swipe up to get the control center on my iPad I can't find the airdrop option

    When I swipe up to get the control center on my iPad I can't find the airdrop option - I see airplay, but no airdrop

    Pay attention to the models of the ipads. For example, my ipad 2 can't and won't ever have airdrop. So if you have an older one that could be why you can't see it.

    It is a new account that you are trying to create and you selected a free app in the store and clicked on 'create Apple id' when 'buying' it ? I tried it earlier today and it still worked for me
