I get missing fonts when opening a PDF, but the fonts are activated, I get garbage

The activated fonts are not the same version as those in the PDF. If you use Type>Find Font and replace the fonts with ones from your computer does it work?

My pictures send through iMessage only to certain people. And others the message is saying " delivered" but the person on the other end isn't getting any of my picture messages and sometimes regular iMessages with no pictures.

I was sure this curse was an Android feature since I had it constantly with my Nexus phones for the last two years, but sure enough it affects iOS8 too. Turn off wireless and and your MMS will go out fine over cellular ever time (in my experience anyway). Ridiculous, right?

Problem with fonts when opening a pdf in Illustrator

Hi all! I'm working on a pdf. I do NOT have the original. So I've found it's easier to open the pages in Illustrator, make edits, and resave as a pdf. The problem is that Illustrator is converting some text to outlines. It is saying I don't have the font, but I do. In fact, on the same page I'll have 4 lines... and some will be converted to outlines and some won't... and they are all the same font. Is there a way to tell Illustrator to NOT convert the font to outlines? I don't mind if it uses a substitute font... it's easy to go in and change the font to the right font. But I don't want the text converted to outlines. Thanks.
Julie
PS I'm using CS 4 on a Mac.

Thanks, Scott. But I'm not sure what you mean by "pretty standard." Are you saying this is, in fact, default behavior in AI 14?
I'm still at AI 12 (CS2), and "standard" behavior (when the font is not available) is for Illustrator to do a font substitution, not automatically convert the type to outlines.
Is this, perhaps, what the new 'Missing Glyph Protection' does in AI 14 (as Myle suggested in post #1)?
If, in fact, this is the new default behavior, I would hope that Illustrator provides a warning (and an option to not proceed) given the highly destructive nature of converting type to outlines.

Getting error message when opening a PDF thats in a curriculum

I have a pdf that is in a curriculum, and the window is able to open and the pdf opens for a split second, then the message error=0, error_text=none appears in the window. See the attached image.
Some background information: I just revised this content (converted from a word document) and published it into the curriculum. I am able to successfully open updated link in my Content folder and also from the curriculum (when I am signed in as a admin).
Can anyone help me diagnose the reason I am getting this message and why I cannot open this pdf? Thanks in advance!

Have you reinstalled that plugin (Acrobat), or tried to use Firefox's bulit in PDF reader (PDF.js).
* [[View PDF files in Firefox without downloading them]]

When opening a PDF file on my MacBook Air I get the message: Before proceeding launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the End User License Agreement.

How can I fix this?

Don't bother trying to fill out a PDF form. The preview tool messes them up. When you install an Adobe product, you have to activate it (at least the ones you pay for). That is normal for most software. I really don't understand the issue you had and apparently you never tried to launch Acrobat.

When I open a PDF file the results are in Word Pad/Winglings/symbols

Please help.
I have Adobe Reader, version 10.2, with Windows Vista, Home Premium edition, 32 bit system. I have installed and reinstalled Reader 10 times, tried an answer that did not help back in 2007 from yor forum. I have to download medical records, please assist me. As you can see I only know the basics of computer and have done my part in resolving the problem, now I need your help. (PS I am a senior citizen)
Four days ago I did not have this problem. Would you recommend backing back my computer to 4 days ago, if it will resolve the problem?
I have 2GB of memory and about 65% left of it.

Does the file actually open in Adobe Reader or is it opening in something else (I would tend to guess the latter)?

I have problem when opening a pdf page, my mouse control is hijacked to that tab when im on other tab, i cant scroll or use the middle rollling button, i have to click at the pdf tab then my control over the mouse middle button is restored.

I think I have this problem even on earlier version. The thing is I set open link in new tab and not switch over to the opened tab. My habit is to open a pdf page in the background and let it load first. What happen is that when the pdf page finished loading ( i do not set to download it), it hijacks my middle mouse button control. When i scroll down or scroll up on my original tab, it wont scroll on the tab, but insttead it scrolls on the pdf tab. I have to click on the pdf tab, then i can use the scrolling function on other tabs back. As for when i opened several pdf tabs, it seems i have to click on the tab that just finished loading, that means several times until they all finish loading. It has been getting on my nerve lately. And all pdf trouble i search from google led to unable to open pdf, firefox hang or crash when opening a pdf and the likes.

core-el, i don't see the advantage of that or i can't figure out how i'm supposed to use it. for starters, i have to click the mouse in order to get "add bookmark here" to open, which is no different than clicking on the star in the location bar, or right-clicking on the page. there are also options in the bookmarks toolbar, but they all require clicking the mouse & holding down the right button, etc.
my goal is to use keystrokes only. typing on the keyboard, using both hands, using the space bar & my left pinky finger to tab over are all painless routines for me. as soon as i have to take my fingers off the keyboard & use the mouse, the pain begins.
as i said, in older versions of firefox, all i had to do to bookmark a page was click ctrl>d, then tab over & arrow down, when appropriate, to find the folder & add the bookmark. for me, as a touch-typist whose speed is between 60 & 80 wpm, this is lightning fast.
if i have this wrong, please correct me. i just see it as more mouse clicks that don't save me time or pain.

When opening a pdf document in Adobe Reader the font of the original document is changed....It becomes a mix of the original font and a new different font. How can i fix this

When opening a pdf document in Adobe Reader the font of the original document is changed....It becomes a mix of the original font and a new different font. How can i fix this

This issue occurs with most of the PDFs that I open up. I am using the latest version of adobe reader on my windows based machine and it is a general PDF. I saw a similar post online stating that if you look at the fonts used in the document and it doesn't say (Embedded) next to it, then Adobe Reader will try to pull the font(s) from your computer and if it doesn't find that font then it will replace it which makes it look funny.

When trying to open a pdf from a shared network folder I get an error

hello,
When trying to open a pdf from a shared network folder I get the error: 'there was an error opening this document the document cannot be found'. The share is on a Windows 7 machine and sharing to a OS X 10.7 Machine. Permisson has been given on the share for 'Everyone' read and Write, and is mapped to the 10.7 machine through the 'Connect to Server' in finder with login credentials.
Can you help please?
Kind regards,
Chris

This is in Internet Explorer 6 (yes, horrible, I know), but we use a standardized image where I work, with pretty intense GPO's.
Don't know what happens if you right-click the link; but from any other machine (with the same image) the same link will open with all three options "Open", "Save", and "Cancel". These are not freshly imaged machines, so some setting must of been changed along the way to make this happen on this user's computer.
Repaired Acrobat, but this resolved nothing.
Also checked in IE to make sure that Adobe was enabled under the Programs tab.
Also, the option to view a pdf within the browser is not turned on.
Any other ideas?

Message when opening a pdf cannot find HelveticaNeue-Roman. What can I do?

I'm getting a message when openign a pdf in Adobe Reader X that says cannont find HelveticaNeue-Roman. The document opens but is not easy to read. I think this started after an upgrade late last year. How do I correct this?

If the PDF file was created using that typeface but the font data wasn't embedded, then you will get the warning prompt and Reader will substitute in another font for display (probably regular Helvetica, which is very close)
You can only fix this in two ways - get a PDF with the font embedded, or install it on your own computer so Reader doesn't have to substitute.

Awesome Tip for editing a PDF when you don't have the fonts

Needed to do this yesterday and looked online and found out how to edit a PDF file in Illustrator when you don't have the fonts. This is a godsend and thought others might benefit from it if they don't know about it.
Problem: You get a PDF file from somebody and when you try to open it in Illustrator, the PDF is using fonts that you don't have so it substitutes the fonts and screws everything up.
Solution: Create a new Illustrator document the size of the PDF.
Place the PDF into the Illustrator document.
While the PDF is selected, go to Object menu / Flatten Transparency
In there, make sure"Convert All Test to Outlines" IS checked.
Click OK and there you go, everything is converted to outlines, including the fonts and you can do with it what you want.
Enjoy!

It's an excellent tip. This can also be done within Acrobat: Flatten transparency with Convert Type to Outlines toggled on, then Save As a new PDF, then Embed-Place the new PDF in Illustrator. It's a functionally identical process, although yours is superior because it requires fewer steps.
While Tom is right that you can't edit the text (because it isn't live), you certainly can, for example, include artwork from another party that would otherwise lose its typographic appearance.

Firefox is stumbling when pages with PDF content come up. how can i get my old version3.5.6 back?

Question
firefox is stumbling when pages with PDF content come up. how can i get my old version3.5.6 back?

Thanks for your response Cor el, I'll try that the next time it happens, it's completely random. One moment it functions normally then suddenly it changes its mind.
Restarting my pc usually brings it back to normal until next time.
One thing I've noticed, but not 100% sure there's a connection here.....I edit my websites online and log into cpanel which opens new pages in separate tabs, as it should do. It seems that this problem occurs when I'm logged into cpanel...if i'm logged in then open a new tab for regular browsing of other sites then all links on those sites also open in new tabs.
Ican't say for sure if it's always only happened when logged into cpanel, but certainly on the last 3 occasions.
At the moment it's behaving normally so much I can do to check your suggestions, but will try them the next time it occurs.
One other thing I forgot to mention too....since i've had the new firefox, I've noticed that when I log into yahoo and post comments, I often find myself having to log on for each new post. Everything was fine with old firefox and there have been no other changes to my pc .

"Access Denied" when opening a PDF in a browser

Hi,
I have a problem I can't solve.
I'm creating a intranet website. In this, i want display PDF but the browser reply "Access DenIed".
I stock my PDFs in a network drive where i have the rights on folders and files.
I try to unckeck "Enable protected mode" but no change.
I try to open with another PDF reader (Foxit) and it works, but i want keep Adobe by default reader
for my users.
I have the last version of Abobe Reader XI (11.0.05.3).
Thanks.

Configure Adobe Reader to not use a Web Browser to open PDF documents... (see the Adobe.com for admx files to apply this setting by group policy) (
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/392489 )
Start>Adobe Reader>Edit>Preferences>Internet>uncheck "Display PDF in browser"
It seems that Adobe have recently changed the location of that setting in Adobe Reader (at least on 11.0.4). They've now hidden it under Edit > Accessibility > Setup Assistant > Then on page 5 of 5, there's a tick box to toggle 'Display PDF
documents in the Web Browser'.
However, it doesn't work like it used to though, as it won't just open a PDF in Adobe Reader instead of the browser. It will instead ask to disable Enhanced Protected Mode to run acroPDF.dll.
And if you try disabling the Adobe PDF reader add-on in Manage Add-ons to try and force it to open in Reader, then when you visit a PDF link, you just get the same blank page (shown below) with the black crossed out circle in the top left, but without the
message bar at the bottom of the window. The only way to open the PDF is to either turn off Enhanced Protected Mode and allow acroPDF.dll to run or if there's an original link to the PDF, right click and select 'save-as'.
I think it's about time Adobe released an x64 PDF viewer... Or at least there should be an open/save dialogue box in IE.
If you've got Reader 11.0.4 installed, you can try it for yourself with this PDF link:
http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/adobe_reader_reference.pdf
(The below screenshot is with 'Display PDF documents in the Web Browser' UN-ticked in Adobe Reader settings, so it should open in Reader instead. But it doesn't. And with the Reader add-on disabled you get the same page, but without the
message at the bottom.)
