Is it possible to add tags to files with Adobe Reader?

Hi,
I scan many of my hand-written notes from meetings during my work day.  I would love to be able to assign a few tags to the file so that I can find them easier with file searches (in Windows) in the future, without having to put every key word in the file name.  Is it possible to do this with just Adobe Reader, or do I need advanced versions of the software?
I look forward to any suggestions!

Not possible with Adobe Reader. Possible with Adobe Acrobat. May be that is possible with your scanning software.

  • Is it possible to open a PDF file with Adobe Reader 5 starting on a particular page?

    I could only find a documentation for version 6 and above

    Latest Adobe Reader version has a feature wherein it can open the PDF from the page where you last used it.
    You can download it from : http://get.adobe.com/reader/

  • Problem opening pdf files with Adobe Reader in Windows 7

    I bought a new Dell (Inspiron 5110) with pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium (Version 6.1 SP1, 64 bit) and pre-installed Adobe Reader X (10.1.1). I cannot open ANY of my old pdf files with the Adobe reader (even after I re-installed the Adobe Reader). On another computer with Windows 7 I get the same error message. When I installed several other pdf-readers (Sumatra, Foxit, ..) I can still not open the pdf's -- but all the pdf's still open under Windows XP on my old computer and they also open on all my colleagues' non-Windows 7 computers. So it appears to be a Windows 7 problem. The Adobe error message says 'Adobe Reader could not open _.pdf because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (…..).
    N.B.: I can download pdf files from the internet and can then open these 'new' pdf files with Adobe Reader X.
    N.B.2.: Most of the 'old' pdf files are scientific articles downloaded from various journal websites 2002-2011, so their quality should be out of question.
    N.B.3.:I've transfered the files via memory stick and portable HD.
    N.B.4.: If I try to open the pdf's via 'Open with' the problem remains the same.
    N.B.5.: When, on my Win7 Dell, I've uploaded/attached one of these old pdf files to an email the rtecipient could not tead it. But he could read it when I'd sent the same file from my old Win XP computer.
    N.B.6.: I have repeated this last observation: When I upload an old pdf file on my Win7 Dell to my email account and then send it to myself, I cannot open/read it on my Win XP (nor on the Dell, of course). Although the file size is precisely the same.
    N.B.7.: When I download a new pdf on my Dell, then upload/attach it to an email also on the Dell and send it to myself, I can download and read the attached pdf on both computers.
    Would be grateful for any suggestions.

    This is really strange.
    Please correct me if I am wrong, but from what I can understand, any PDF which is launched on your Win 7 OS fails to open, even though the same file works perfectly fine on your Win XP machine?
    Could you please run a full system anti virus scan on the said PDFs that are present on your local system. It could be a case of infected PDFs.
    Also, it would be great if you could try and download some of the erroneous PDFs from the web again, and see if you experience the same behavior.
    Thanks

  • How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader instead of google?

    Firefox is unsucessfully using google to open pdf files.  How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader?
    Message was edited by: veeryTalonted

    "Google" is a search engine (website) and NOT (repeat: NOT) a PDF viewer. It can't and won't open PDFs in any real or imaginable way.
    Firefox added their own proprietary PDF viewer with version 20 - they're on 21 now. I'll be the first to admit "it sucks". You CAN'T fill in PDF forms with it, and you can't email them from the page like with Opera, Safari or Chrome (which use the reader plug-in still).
    Unfortunately, the ONLY option you have now that they've added it and killed the ability for the Reader plug-in to work with Firefox, is Tools>Options>Applications - select Portable Document Format(PDF) and choose "Use Adobe Reader (Default)". What that will do is FORCE Firefox to download the PDF instead of opening it in their terrible PDF viewer in the browser window.
    Or... use one of the other browsers I mentioned. They're all free.

    Hi Ajlan,
    To fix my problem, i uninstalled adobe reader X with "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool", rebooted the server, installed Adobe Reader XI and rebooted again.
    For some users, this fix the problem but with some others i had to define Adobe Reader by default again.

  • Open PDF file with Adobe Reader - Asks me what Firefox should do - every time

    Hi,
    Everytime I want to open a PDF file, Firefox asks me 'What should Firefox do with this file'.
    I have Open WIth Adobe Reader (default) selected and I have the 'Do this automatically...' box checked.
    So it seems to me that Firefox should not ask me every time.

    Hi - I don't want it to always ask; I want it to never ask.
    Having said that, I changed my option setting to 'always ask' and the next time I tried to open a PDF document, the dialog box opened asking me what to do. The 'Do this automatically...' box was unchecked as expected.
    I checked the 'Do this automatically...' box and now Firefox no longer asks.
    Weird way to solve the problem, but it appears to work fine now.
    Thanks

  • Cannot open multiple files with Adobe Reader X

    Hi to all!
    I've just installed Adobe Reader X. This is my problem: I select multiple pdf files (from 2 to 9) from a folder, then I click whith the right mouse button and choose "Open with Adobe Reader X" (or chlick the Enter button). I expect that Acrobat will open all the files I selected but only one will open!
    If I try to open the files from the File/Open function in Reader X and I choose the same documents, the documents itselfs will be open correctly!
    I use the same procedure using Reader 9.x but I've not the same problem.
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks in advance.
    Stefano

    I have the same problem, but cannot find this supposed "Adobe Reader" forum, nor can I find an "Acrobat Reader" forum. (Everything else seems to be there, but no Reader...)
    With all previous versions over recent years, up to version 9, I could select multiple PDF files in Windows Explorer, hit Enter, and it loaded them all. Then I could Ctrl+F6 to switch between the documents.
    Now, if I try this with just 2 PDF files, it loads one and then locks up, with each session of Acrobat taking about 40-45% of processor power. I have to crash out of it.
    Help!
    Or at least show me where this Acrobat Reader forum is?
    Many thanks

  • Problems opening files with adobe reader 11

    I have just downloaded Adobe Reader 11 and now cannot open pdf files online (the computer freezes and I have to shut down explorer) or saved files either (adobe reader opens for about 5 seconds, then just shuts down).  I am operating on windows 7 and have all the current updates from windows.  Can anybody help please?

    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    Another thing to try: use Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader
    then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement.
