Make PDF portfolio compatible for editing with earlier versions of Acrobat

I've built a PDF portfolio in Acrobat Pro X and then sent it to someone running Reader v9 and they can't edit it (and need to). Is there a way to save the PDF portfolio down so they can edit it?
Why does Adobe make this so difficult?

PDF Portfolios are based on Flash. It's impossible to view them without Flash. In Acrobat/Reader 9 and X, Flash was built in. In Acrobat/Reader XI, it must be downloaded for security reasons. (I believe the reasoning is that, because only a minority of Acrobat/Reader users use PDF Portfolios or features which require Flash, it's not wise to expect people to do the frequent security updates in Acrobat/Reader that Flash requires.)

    Is it possible to save a pdf to a format of an earlier version of Acrobat than the one I have (i.e. Adobe 5.0 when I am running 6.0)?

    How would I do it?  I am running Adobe Acrobat XI (version 11.0.5). I am using an external software that allows me to upload pdf files, but it asks  "Please regenerate the PDF using Acrobat 5.0 or lower"

  • PDF Portfolio does not work with iOS Reader 11.3.2 on iOS 7.1.2

    Well this is upsetting. I created a PDF form with several pages of the same form (it's a travel log).
    My hoping to use Adobe Reader to complete the form and save back as a week at a time won't work.
    I created the form using Acrobat Pro 9 from CS5.
    Does anyone know if a PDF form in a Portfolio should work with Adobe Reader on the iPad2/
    Also, what can I use that works with forms as a portfolio?

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

    hi there
    try the vi
    ..vi.lib\platform\browser.llb\Open Acrobat Document.vi
    it uses DDE or the command line to run an external application (e.g. Adobe Acrobat)

  • Itunes will not open, message says library was created with earlier version. what now?,

    itunes will not open, message says library was created with earlier version. what do i do?

    Unless you just attempted to downgrade iTunes to an earlier verison this is probably a sign of a corrupt library.
    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping.  Note that in iTunes 11 an "empty" library may show your past purchases with links to stream or download them.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    Alternatively, depending on exactly when and why the library went missing, there may be a more recent .tmp file in the main iTunes folder that can be renamed as iTunes Library.itl to restore the library to a recent state.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    When you get it all working make a backup!
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    I've noticed more of these missing library posts of late and a common factor to most since I started asking is AVG Anti-Virus. It seems in some cases it might be at least part of the reason why the library file disappears. Try excluding the iTunes folder from any AV scanning process.

  • Quick Time player cannon be opened because of a problem. Check with developer to make sure Quick Time player works with this version of Mac OS X

    "Quick Time Player cannot be opened because of a problem"  Futher noted - Check with developer to make sure Quick Time player works with this version of Mac OS X.  The player had been working fine on my iMac 24, even after upgrading to Lion. Now, nothing but this message. This involves Quick TIme Player version 10.0. Could upgrading to the 'Pro' version be worthwhile?  Can't find anything on support that comes close to answering this perplexing situation.
    Thanks,

    QuickTime Player 10.0, if that's what you have, is indeed too old for Lion which should have QuickTime Player 10.1. Check your system to see if perhaps you have two copies of QuickTime Player, something quite possible if you moved or renamed QuickTime Player before upgrading.
    Hope this helps.

  • AIR App now crashes with AIR 15 runtime (did not crash with earlier versions of AIR)

    Hi,
    We've noticed our AIR application now crashes when the AIR 15 (the latest version available from Adobe) runtime is installed.  This did not happen with earlier versions of AIR.  The app does not crash when I debug in Flash Builder so I cannot identify the exact issue.  The app will crash EVERY time when running the .exe on Windows.  The crash happens on Windows XP and Windows 7.  The app does not crash on OS X.
    The message in Event Viewer says:
    Faulting application name: PhotoMambo.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4eb75ae0

    Please let me know if you'd like any additional information.  This is such a bummer that an AIR update renders our app useless in Windows.
    Thank you.

    I'm sorry this is happening.  Could you please open a new bug report on this over at bugbase.adobe.com?  When adding the bug, please include sample code or an application so we can quickly test this out internally.  If you'd like to keep this private, feel free to email the attachment to me directly ([email protected]).

  • Robustness "Managed Driver Beta" with earlier versions of clients

    Hello,
    i have tested the "Managed Driver Beta".
    It works well.
    It really is a great relief to distribute only a reference.
    I have a production system in a live environment.
    It is very important that there are no disturbances.
    Now to my question:
    Is there really when using the "Managed Driver" no problems with already installed clients with earlier versions? e.g. ORANT?
    Thanks
    Armin

    Yep. It's nicely self-contained in its own assembly and namespace and doesn't impact on other things. If you really want to be paranoid about it, distribute it with your project instead of installing it on the server directly. That'll put it in your project's \bin folder and no other code will even realize it's there.

  • PDF Portfolio compatible on PC and Mac?

    Hello,
    I have a very large InDesign file that I will need to seperate into individual PDF files.
    I've never used PDF Portfolio before, but have seen some samples and love how it allows 'interconnectivity' between multiple PDF files.
    My end-users are on PC and Mac platforms. I am on a PC system. Would my PDF portfolio work on a Mac?
    Also, some end-users use extremely old versions of Acrobat. I imagine that the 'PDF Portfolio' may not work on them. Will they still be able to view the individual PDF files?
    Delivery method is the files will be burned onto a CD.
    Thanks!

    With a Mac, it is usually not required to delete an Apple application before re-installing the app if needed. You can re-install the app over the existing, and the same applies to an app provided as a bundle - installed via drag and drop to your hard drive from a mounted disk image after the app was downloaded instead of being installed with an installer. Most 3rd party apps for the Mac are made available and installed as a bundle.
    Have you run Software Update located at System Preferences > Software Update since purchasing your Mac?
    If so and any update that was available has been installed, try running Disk First Aid which will require booting your Mac from the Snow Leopard install disc included with your Mac purchase. This link provides instructions for doing so.

  • Which of these laptops to buy for editing with premiere pro

    Hello guys,

    After a long research the choice was narrowed to the options mentioned bellow. Which one do you recommend ? Is there any other option in the same price range that I did not consider?

    The biggest problem with the Asus in question is that it will be really hard to upgrade it and I still did not find a model with SSD.
    I found a comparision review here:  http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Asus-N550JV-CN201H-Notebook.98311. 0.html 
    The Asus scores better in the cinebench sector (slightly with OpenGL and much with CPU)  and the Lenovo is better in the Pcmark7 and the 3dmark11. What are these tests? and which one is more important when it comes to video editing?
    Thank you again for your time and efferts
    P.S. I am studying the article about Hard disks, it is really interesting!!! thanks
    Correct it is a 17-inch, and of course it weighs and costs slightly more than a 15.6-inch
    It is a very simple task to upgrade the unit to an dual SSD system, and memory upgrade is very easy.  You undo one screw on the bottom and (below) this is what you see.  Two disk drive carriers with my SSD's installed and two 8 GB SODIMM add on RAM modules
    Those benchmarks have very little to do with editing with Premiere, there is only one real comperhensive Premiere benchmark it is our PPBM.

  • G5 Power PC vs Imac...which is better for editing with final cut studio 2?

    This is my present computer:
    iMac 3.06GHz Core 2 Duo (2008 model)
    4 gigs of 800 mhz ddr2 sdram (this is the max ram for this computer! )
    NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS 512 MB
    Hard drive: 465 gig (I use mainly external drives for editing)
    I use this mainly for video editing with final cut studio 2.
    Rendering in compressor takes forever!!!
    A friend suggested I pick up a used G5 Power PC.
    I found this one, here are the specs:
    APPLE POWER MAC G5 PowerPC DUAL CORE (2 x 2 GHZ)
    System Mac OSX 10.5.8
    RAM 12 GB
    1 Hard drive of 160 Gb
    Superdrive 16x CD/DVD/DL DVD (32x)
    Video card NVIDIA GeForce 6600 (VRAM 256 Mb)
    3 open PCI-Express expansion slots.
    1x FireWire 800
    3x FireWire 400
    4x USB 1 and 2
    2x Ethernet Port
    2x Displays ports
    Is this insanity or a smart move to move over to the older G5.
    According to my friend, the older G5s are much better at processing video.
    Is a dual 2 GHZ processor enough or would I need a 2.3 or 2.5?
    OR is there another option that someone might be able to suggest?
    I would be so appreciative of any opinions regarding this issue.
    Thanks in advance.
    Bill

    Save your pennies and look for a refurbished or used MacPro. Early 2008 or newer 8 core machines w/8GB of RAM running 4 instances in QMaster will chew through material.
    Beyond running compressor, it is just a better all round machine for editing video.
    • it has multiple internal drive bays which run via SATA connections - much faster than the FW800 limits of the iMac for external drives
    • it has 3 slots which give you the option of an i/o card from AJA, Blackmagic or Matrox so that you can actually monitor your video properly as well as ingest high end formats
    • the slots give you the ability to connect esata raids for even higher data speeds
    • you have much greater flexibility with computer monitors
    • you have much greater RAM capacity
    and so on ...
