Mysteriously added text downloading to Acrobat Create PDF Online

Working on Acrobat.com's create an online pdf web page I
downloaded a Word Document from my pc to Acrobat.com and opened the
Word document (on Acrobat's web site) to find the document
different than the original Word document on my pc.
The Word document (as well as the pdf conversion displayed
next to it) on the Acrobat.com web page mysteriously had an added
line of text showing a previously unknown date (January 9, 2006)
inserted before the body of the original text but under the
original page header. The font also looked slightly different
throughout the body and header of the document and the document
itself was extended to 3 pages long instead of 2. In the conversion
the now added 3rd page also mysteriously included the standard
header and footer and renumbered the first two pages to include
this new 3rd page (page x of 3) in the footer.. When I went back to
the original Word document on my pc nothing was added or changed.
I downloaded another Word document with a different page
header from the same pc to the Acrobat webpage and while that
document looks graphically slightly different there was no text
added.
It seems that there must be some sort of embedded legacy date
code or script at the beginning of the Word document that while not
visible in either the reveal codes side pane, or showing up in any
way when working or printing the document in Word is somehow
revealed in the text of the document when downloaded to the Acrobat
site even before its converted to a pdf file.
How can I manage this?

I am using Windows XP Professional O/S and Firefox as my
browser. I get that the font options will change the file as opened
at Acrobat that may change the layout,
but,....
how do you explain the mysterious extra date 'string' that
appeared at the start of the word document as it showed up at
Acrobat's website?
Since this is standard out of the box Word and included fonts
(garamond 12) why does this do this.

I believe you people have never heard of the term "Backward Compatibility" .U people will loose your customer/support base if every new version doesn't support some existing stuff.

    '''Problem Solved FINALLY !'''
    Solution:
    I just updated my '''Adobe Acrobat X Pro''' to '''Version 10.1.0'''.By the way, I have to complain, Adobe is really slow in solving this problem...
    Here is the official link for the Adobe Acrobat update.[http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5135 <click me!>http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5135<click me!>]
    After update, the extention changed from "Adobe Acrobat -Create PDF 1.0" into "Adobe Acrobat - Create PDF 1.1". And the '''"Adobe Acrobat - Create PDF 1.1" is compatiable with the firefox 4.0.1'''. A screenshot is attached as a proof.

    I have the same problem for a couple of months, and I had to use a plug-in in Firefox to print a web page. I really need the web page address in the footer for reference purposes which Chrome print (Ctrl+P) does not produce.
    The error message is: A supported version of Acrobat could not be found. Please install or update Acrobat to 11.0.9 or higher."
    After updating to Acrobat 11.0.10 and repairing the installation the problem did not go away.
    Deleting and re-installing the extension did not help either.

  • Unable to print added text only in Acrobat Pro XI

    User is trying to print added text that's been added to an existing PDF page.  In Acrobat X she chose "Form fields only" under Comments & Forms from the Print menu.  In XI it produces a blank page.  The added text only shows up if she chooses Document or Document and Markups, but then she gets the entire document.  She only wants the added text to print.

    Thanks to all who commented here.  I found that adding text using Tools>Content Editing>Add Text will not allow the user to print solely the added text.  As everyone responded here, that's as designed.  However, using Comment>Annotations>Add Text does allow the user to print solely the added text as she was used to doing in Acrobat X.  I thought it was the same tool under two different headings, but obviously they interact differently in the print menu.  Choosing Form fields only from the Print Menu's Comments & Forms panel will produce solely the text added under the Comment panel's Add Text tool without printing the rest of the document page.  And the user doesn't have to turn the document into a form to do so.

  • The Adobe Acrobat - Create PDF 1.0 extension/Firefox extension indicates it is not compatible with Firefox 24.6.0 ESR.  Where could I obtain a more up to date extension for Acrobat X Pro 10.0?

    Hi - I am running Acrobat X Pro 10.0.0 on my Windows XP Pro SP 3 (32-bit) laptop and Firefox 24.6.0 ESR.  When I check the add-ons manager of Firefox I am receiving notication that the Acrobat X Pro - Create PDF 1.0 extension is incompatible with Firefox 24.6.0 ESR.
    Is it possible to obtain a more up to date Acrobat X Pro - Create PDF extension please?
    Thank you and kind regards.

    Many updates to 10.0.0 are available, so this is the first thing to try. I don't know if it will help, but there are vital security fixes there too.

  • Remove unwanted Adobe Acrobat Create PDF Add-on

    I just can't believe Mozilla allows this!
    I installed Acrobat XI Pro for Mac and without my permission Adobe installed a Firefox add-on called "Create PDF". I can't uninstall, remove or delete it. I can only disable it. It's the only add-on that has no remove button. How can this be?
    I also can't find the extension itself, in order to delete it. I tried everything, but the damn thing just can't be deleted.
    I'm very disturbed that something like this is possible! Is Adobe paying Mozilla?

    Unlike with Extensions and Themes (complete) the Plugins like Java, Flash player and other Adobe examples and such are not actually installed in Firefox but are on system. Firefox just scans and found compatible Plugins and is making use of them. This explains why there is no Remove button and only Activate/Deactivate which tells Firefox to make use of that Plugin on system or not.
    See in '''about:plugins''' where they are located.

  • Your latest update says Adobe Acrobat - Create PDF 1.1 will be disabled, but I must use it daily, so what am I to do?

    The above question says it all. I'm currently running Firefox 6.2. Don't know what other info you need. My dilemma is simple: I can't do my work without Adobe Acrobat. You say I MUST update my version of Firefox for security reasons, but you will disable Adobe (for some indeterminate period of time). What would you do if you were me? If you want to discuss my cell is: 317-439-0915. Thanks, Bill Stanley 11/9/11

    Bill,
    You can achieve the same results as with Adobe Create PDF by following this procedure:
    (1) Click on the Orange Firefox tab in the upper left Firefox user interface (or else the "Menu Bar" if you have it enabled), then "Save Page As" followed by "Web Page Complete" in the menu that will appear to save the web page and associated/linked folder of files on your desktop.
    (2) Use the mouse to right click on the firefox icon for the saved webpage on your desktop.
    (3) In the context menu that appears, choose and click on "Convert to Adobe PDF"
    (4) The process takes a few seconds, but the pdf file should then appear.
    (5) Delete the saved webpage file from your desktop. (Just deleting the main file will put the folder that's linked to it also into the trash)
    Unlike using the Adobe PDF printer from Firefox, this will preserve any embedded url links that were in the web page and have them appear as clickable links in the pdf. And unlike using the create pdf option and typing the url into Adobe Acrobat itself it will work for sites such as some online encyclopedias that you have to log into to access.
    Alternatively, you could just use Internet Explorer, on which Create PDF 1.1 does work - except if you're asking then you obviously prefer Firefox.
    Of course it would be better if Adobe would keep up with the latest versions of Firefox, but it isn't doing that. At least the procedure, though more awkward than just being able to click on the create pdf icon on Firefox, does produce the same result from Firefox.

  • Create PDF online not working

    I have recived this message AGAIN (second time in 2 weeks):
    Your recent request to create a PDF by printing to Create Adobe PDF
    Online failed because you have exceeded your limit of 8 conversions.
    To convert additional documents, sign up for a Create Adobe PDF Online
    subscription. Subscribers have expanded features and benefits,
    including unlimited PDF conversions, priority job processing, and 50%
    more processing time. Sign up for just US$9.99/month or US$99.99/year.
    (Available only in the U.S. and Canada.)
    My current subscription is still good for an additional 6 months! NEED IT FIXED ASAP!!!!!!!!

    I tried the same thing myself, yesterday. I have found the solution.
    I am cancelling my subscription until Adobe finds a method that works.
    If many of us do this, then the nonsense will stop.

  • Adding Text to Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro

    I just downloaded the trial version of Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro.  I want to add text to fill out an online .pdf application form.  The problem is that that when I try to access the text box tool, it is greyed out.  Can anybody help me with this?
    Thanks in advance.

    No, I can't.  I am trying to fill out an application that I downloaded off of the internet.  I thought I could simply click in the area where I need to type but it won't let me.  When I use my cursor it places the cursor next to the text and then when I try to type nothing happens.
    But in answer to your first question, all I want to do is add text, whichever the easiest way it is do that the better!   I have attached the form if that helps.  thanks for responding.

  • Adding text as hidden layer in PDF's

    Hi, I have some hand written documents (Old genealogy letters) which I would like to be made searchable. Can I scan the documents as PDF’s, then manually word process the documents and add this text as a hidden text layer? Thanks Doctor Keo

    About Acrobat OCR.
    Three methods.
    #1 Searchable Image
    #2 Searchable Image (Exact)
    #3 -
    (a) Formatted Text and Graphics (prior to Acrobat 9)
    (b) ClearScan (Acrobat 9)
    #1 - Provides OCR output as a hidden text layer. Will perform some "adjustment" to the image.
    #2. - Provides OCR output as a hidden text layer. Will not "adjustment" to the image.
    #3. a & b
    If process thinks it "knows" what the character is then it replaces the image of the character.
    If process is not sure what the character is then it flags the character(s) as "suspects".
    End-user can edit "suspects".
    If process does not know what the character is the character's image is left alone as a bit-mapped image.
    Note that "ICR" vice "OCR" is meant for handwritten material that has been scanned.
    Acrobat does not provide "ICR".
    However, text from a typewritter typically provides accurate OCR provided the scan is at high enough resolution (typically, 300 ppi).
    If #1 or #2 is used you can always Save As to a *.txt file.
    This can be brought into a text editor, word processor, page layout application, etc.
    There, you can create a "clean" copy from which a PDF can be made.
    Provide the Scan of the original and use a PDF Bookmark or a Button Field having a link action to go to the copy having the corrected content with renderable text. Make a Catalog index of the cleaned up text PDFs to support advanced search.
    For all practicable purposes, there is no manipulation/edits/etc. to the hidden layer of OCR output.
    Be well...

  • Adding text to editable region creates space in the rest of my layout

    I created my layout in PS, sliced the images and then imported to DW (html and images).
    Layout looks great.
    I created editable regions in the template I created from the .html
    One I start inserting text into these regions, my container moves and it throws the rest of the layout off by adding space between the editable region and the area above it (a big black line horizontally through the page).
    Is there a way to keep the container/editable region from moving or growing with the text so that it doesn't change my layout?
    On a side note, this change doesn't appear in live view. When I preview in browser, Safari layout looks great, but text doesn't appear. In firefox, text appears, but layout is a mess.
    Here is the code from the editable region to which I am trying to add text:
    <!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="main_content_area" -->
            <div id="site_layout_contentmain">Content for  id "site_layout_contentmain" Goes Here</div>
          <!-- TemplateEndEditable --></td>
    ANY help is GREATLY appreciated!!!!!

    If it pulls apart in Firefox, chances are it pulls apart in all browsers when text size is increased.
    The problem with Photoshop code is that it is a) rigid, b) unstable and c) invalid.  
    To illustrate, run your code through the on-line validation tools below.
    CSS - http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
    HTML - http://validator.w3.org/
    Photoshop is OK for designing quick comps to show the client but they won't hold up on a real site.
    IMO, the benefits of starting over far outweigh the inconvenience.
