Need for Acrobat 9 Pro Extended 64-bit Add-on

Can anyone tell me if this 34 KB add-on is necessary for Acrobat Pro Extended version 9.5.2? Can find no infomation on Adobe's website about it. It was installed with original software on 8/2011.

All I can tell you is it's title in the "Programs and Features" tool of Windows 7. To whit: "Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended 64-bit Add-On." It has an installation date of 8-30-2011 and is only 34KB in size, according to Windows. It is listed below the Main Acrobat 9 Pro program, which doesn't give it's size, but does give the current version of 9.5.2, which is the latest for Acrobat 9 Pro as far as I know.
The one thing I want to establish is whether this add-on is necessary for the current version of Acrobat 9 Pro to function or not. I can find no guidance on Acrobat's website; at least a search reveals nothing anyway. And it is not referenced in their update site at all. If worse comes to worse, I will call them for guidance because our security types are listing it as a problem, and I am wondering if they are confusing this add-on with the main program.
Hope this helps with your knowledge, and thanks for replying.

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended, 64-bit Add-On, Version 9.0.0

Does anybody know if this is still needed for Adobe Acrobat Pro Ext, version 9.5.2 ? Our security people are declaring that this is a vulnerability, and I see no way to update it or even verify if it is needed. There are no clear references to this on Adobe's website, other than for previous versions of 9 Pro Extended.

Acrobat 9 Pro extended 64-bit add-on uninstall crashes

My windows 7 64 bit computer seems to reboot itself. I've located the problem to possibly be with Acrobat.
When I then tried to unistall "Accrobat 9 Pro extended 64-bit add-on" the computer crashes--straight to black screen and rebooting. I tried to uninstall it in safe mode but windows t pops up with a window telling me some uninstall file is missing.
Any suggestions outside of reinstalling the OS.?
Thanks in advance

Where is the logfile for Acrobat Pro Extended 9.2 on Windows ? (regarding Microsoft Office 2003)

My installation of Acrobat Pro extended works printing all types of Microsoft Office 2003 documents (Word, Excel, Pagemaker, etc) but NOT with Powerpoint and I'm trying to get more information other than what I'm seeing in Powerpoint when I try to create the PDF which is "an error occurred while trying to print the Adobe PDF"
where would I look for the log file?
thanks

Converting a *.pdf file to a *.stl for Acrobat Pro Extended?

Hi I'm researching Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 Extended and I was wondering if there is a possibility to creat a *.stl file from an Adobe PDF file with 3D embedded objects.
Can anyone shine some light on this?

Hello,
Yes it's possible:
- open a PDF file
- Activate 3D content
- Right click on scene then Select Export Data...
- Select STL format (Setings for the Level Of Detail are available)
- Browse to a folder then Press OK
Hope It helps

Acrobat Pro Extended 9.3.1 - Can't use "Send for Shared Review"

After the last update for Acrobat Pro Extended, I cannot send RoboHelp PDF generated documents for shared reivew. I used to be able to send draft reviews of the help (in PDF) using our public shared drive. The error indicates: "The filename you specified is not valid because it does not include a .pdf extension, contains one or more invalid characters or the path preceding it refers to a protected system location." I have not changed any of the items mentioned in the error and yet after the last software release update to the 9.3.1, the share review option is not working. Has anyone run into this issue and can help with pointers?

I am surprised the patch allowed you to update from AA9.0.0 to 9.3.1 directly. Almost all patches (updates) for Acrobat are incremental and they must be installed in sequence. I suspect this it true for AA9 also, but I could be wrong.
I suspect it was the jump that is causing the problem. I would suggest you reinstall AA9 (you may have to be careful about activating and deactivating so you do not lose your number of license installs). Once you are back to AA9.0.0, then either use the "Check for Updates" or download all of the updates and install them in order. You may have to reboot after some of the changes. It looks like you have 7 updates to go through. Folks have complained about the updates not being cummulative for years, don't expect things to change.

Acrobat Pro Extended 9.0.0 Admin Install Update

Hello
I am trying to update our deployment of Acrobat Pro Extended 9.0.0 to the latest patch, 9.1.3.
We are not deploying the updates via Group Policy, as our deployment of Acrobat Pro is "on demand", therefore I initially wish to update the administrative installation point.
I feel it important to point out that our software was downloaded from the Adobe Licensing site, and is not copied off any CD/DVD media.
My basic process here is:
Download the patch files for Acrobat Pro Extended for Windows, from Adobe:
AcroProExUpd910_all_incr.msp (no longer easily found on Update site as downloadable at the time of this post)
AcrobatUpd911_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd912_all_incr.msp
AcrobatUpd913_all_incr.msp
Of which, based on the article at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/498/cpsid_49880.html I understand that:
9.1.0 is a quarterly update
9.1.1 is a security update
9.1.2 is a quarterly update
9.1.3 is a security update (assumed, as it came out in the wake of current security fixes)
Therefore, I think I need to update my AIP to 9.1.0, then to 9.1.2 (acceptable according to the release notes for this patch) and then to 9.1.3, thus completing my task.
My problem comes from running the patches on the AIP. Normally I use a customised installation, but to rule that out, I am ONLY using the downloaded software - no local customisations applied using the Adobe Customisation Wizard.
Patching the 9.0.0 version to 9.1.0 using msiexec /a Acro3D.msi /p AcroProExUpd910_all_incr.msp WORKS! Setup completes, no errors.
Patching the 9.1.0 version to 9.1.2 using msiexec /a Acro3D.msi /p AcrobatUpd912_all_incr.msp FAILS! Setup reports a missing file in the Data1.cab, interop.adobepdfmakerx.dll. Google search reveals unlikely sources to download this missing file.
Patching cannot continue, as 9.1.2 is a pre-requisite to 9.1.3. I have the same problem with applying 9.1.1, though the above KB article made me ignore trying to get that to work.
Does anyone have any advice where I am going wrong?
Thanks!
UPDATE:
After more digging around, it seems that the 9.1.x updates are only for Pro and Standard, whereas the 9.1 update is explicitally for the Pro Extended product.
All 4 patches will patch an "installed" version of the Acrobat Professional Extended product, however the 9.1.2 update will not patch the administrative installation point, presumably because of the different version (Pro or Standard patch, not Pro Extended patch), resulting in the error of the missing file.
The Adobe Security Bulletin clearly says the patches are available for Standard, Professional and Extended, yet the patches dont seem to work! This is just nuts!

I ahve a new Acrobat Pro Extebded
9.0.0 and I am running windows 7. I cant
update anything and when I go into the help menu and select the updates it tells me I am
not on line etc.
I have tried and downloaded the updates and just cant install as it tells me the programme is missing etc etc.
All I want is a programme that works and i cant be done with all the tech talk as all i am is a user and run programmes that do the job. can any one advice what I can do next with out have to be a programmer.

Embedding video in PDF, keeps says it cant convert and need Acrobat Pro Extended?

I have Acrobat Pro 9 and with using the tool to embed video which seems to convert to a flash format, it keeps coming back saying its unable to convert and that I would need Acrobat Pro Extended. I tried a handfull of different video types and every one that I chose gave me the same message. All it will seem to do is somehow link to the video whcih will use the viewer installed on that persons computer to run. It seems to give you the ability to convert video over but it doesnt let you for anything you choose, what am I doing wrong?
I have Acrobat Pro 9 Extended at work which I tried the same thing with and of course, that worked. Is the Extended part by any chance just a patch for Pro 9 or is it a totally different purchase?

"Add multimedia to PDFs" at Acrobat Pro's LiveDocs may help to clarify.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Professional/WS65B80E79-F165-44f0-BBCA-0F142A75869 6.html
Looks like the following general observations apply.
If the multmedia file(s) meet the identified requirements for Professional it is "in".
If the multimedia file(s) do not, then conversion is required - but conversion is only available in Pro Extended.
That you get a "need conversion" message, from Pro that would be indicative of an input that does not meet the specified requirements for direct use in Pro.
An alternative might be to try "Create Legacy ..."
Legacy multimedia will rely on the end-user having the appropriate player application installed.
fwiw - having an interest in multimedia & PDF you might find this helpful

PDF Gen need Acrobat pro extended

Hi all,
I think I once heard that Adobe Acrobat Pro was enough for PDF Generator. When I config LC ES2 I get warnings in configuration.
Does LC ES2 require Acrobat Pro Extended? Can it work without?
How does I most easily update it now LC ES2 is up and running?
Thanks guys

Acrobat Pro Extended - how can I add links to 3D-objects?

Hi there,
I'm using Acrobat Pro Extended 9.0 and I would like to attach links to different filetypes to a 3D-object in a 3D-PDF. I tried to use the link-tool but it seems like that only works for 2D-PDF. Also in the 3D-Reviewer I haven't found a way yet to make it work.
Thanks
what eva

It's possible, but not in the simple tools-based way.
The "easiest" way is to add a Javascript to the 3D annotation which hooks the mouse event, scans the event.hits array and reacts based on the contents. If a mesh object is clicked the hits array will contain the mesh name in position 0 (then everything behind it in order). Your only issues arise when you want the "normal" clicking action to work as well (for selecting nodes, etc.), in which case you have to ensure your script passes the events about.
Many of the example files on the acrobatusers.com 3D gallery use that principle, and there are also some in the adobe.com section on 3D Javascript. The idea of a '3D linking tool' is a loooong way off - the way 3D is handled by Acrobat isn't set up to understand things at that level - the UI sees the 3D model as nothing but a black box that can be shouted at.

Need to create a workflow approval. I need a Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Pro Extended?, which one?

I need to create a workflow for approval. But i've downloaded and executed acrobat pro trial and i don't see: commentaries=send a PDF for approval. I only saw commentaries=send a PDF for reviews. Has Acrobat Pro the approval option or just Acrobat Pro extended?

The best way to approve a document is using a signature field. You sign the document when it meets your approval.

If you have enough users a volume license will be a reasonable choice. Again you might contact Adobe or an Adobe reseller.

Acrobat Pro Extended 9.1.3 shows mirror image for second pdf

When I open a second PDF using Acrobat Pro Extended 9.1.3 the second file is shown as an enlarged text "mirror image." Has anyone else experienced this behavior?

One of our users is having a similar problem. He always leaves Elements open in the background so I'm wondering if this is causing problems when he downloads and opens pdfs using Acrobat Standard 9. He also seeing the images stretch to the point of seeing a bunch of horizontal lines. Has anyone offered any solutions?

How do I get the PDF Convert feature of Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.4, which makes a PDF of a web page interactive, to work in Firefox 4.0.1?

I just installed (on my Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) operating system/Intel i5 CPU M560 2.67 GHz) and am now using as my default browser Firefox 4.0.1 because Internet Explorer 9 was giving me so much trouble--lack of display of web content, lack of PDF reproduction when web content displayed, screwball formatting display, etc., all of which has been remedied by the mere installation of Firefox 4.0.1.
How do I get the PDF Convert feature of Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended 9.4.4, which converts a web page to an interactive PDF, to set up and work on Firefox 4.0.1?

You can not do that using Adobe Acrobat 9. Adobe never made a create PDF add-on for Firefox for use with Adobe Acrobat 9. They created a Firefox add-on for use with Acrobat X, but currently that one does not work with Firefox 4 though Adobe are working on an update.
