Opening a PDF for editing from a website

I am new to Adobe Acrobat and need to know what is required in order to place an editable PDF on a website for editing without downloading to the local computer? I am working on a rush project that has 7 pdf files with fields that need to be accessed online for editing. When I upload to website and open, they open locally. Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Janice

What sort of edting are you talking about, and what do you want to do with the documents after they're edited?
If you just want the PDF to open in Acrobat, you have to configure it be selecting: Edit > Preferences > Internet > Display PDF in browser

When opening a pdf in Firefox from a website, the navigation bar disappears. I would like to copy the URL path to send to staff.

Using Acrobat Pro XI, Windows 7-64, Firefox 25. If I open a PDF from a website link in IE, the PDF opens and I can see the URL path where I can copy it and send to others. Opening the same link in Firefox does not show the URL path. I get the File, Edit menu but no URL.

Is the PDF opening in a separate (popup) window? Sites can alter which bars appear on a popup window, but the address bar should always be visible (that's the default setting). Could you check and make sure that hasn't changed?
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''window_o''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) If the '''dom.disable_window_open_feature.<u>location</u>''' preference is bolded and "user set" to false, double-click it to switch it back to true so sites are disabled from hiding the location (address) bar on popup windows.

'Tis better to pen for edit from .lvproj rather than ClearCase

I have been told that it is better to open a file for editing from .lvproj than from source control or the directory. Reason being it would help ensure that LabView would know of changes affecting other VIs and also be better able to deal with renames or relocations.
So if I open a VI from the project file then double click a subVI within it, will the subVI be afforded the same protections or must it also be opened from the project file?
thanx,
jvh
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi jvh,
I imagine since the subVI is the same instance within the calling VI as is included in the project then it should yield the same result because the SCC affects the entire hierarchy within the project. I found some resources in the NI Community (here) and the LabVIEW 2009 Help (Configuring Source Control for LabVIEW Projects) that should be a great starting point for further clarification of SCC with LabVIEW.
I hope this helps!

Error clicking on Open "In Microsoft Project for Editing" from PWA ribbon

Receiving errors when selecting any project (from Project Center in PWA on SharePoint 2013) and choosing Open "In Microsoft Project for Editing" from ribbon. Error messages below. We do not receive the error if MS Project Pro 2013 is already
open on PC. What is triggering these errors?
As Project Server Admin using IE9, MS Project Pro 2013 starts to open and then displays "Project Professional 2013 needs to be online in order to open your project. Set Project to connect to Project Web App and try again."
A PM using IE9 completes the same process and receives "Microsoft Project has stopped working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." and separate window with "Sorry, we were
unable to open your project. Please try again. If this happens again, please contact your administrator."
As Project Server Admin, I also tried it in Firefox and received the following error message "Project Professional needs to be installed to open the project. Install Project and try again."

Worth checking my blog from yesterday if you are using Firefox -
http://blogs.technet.com/b/projectsupport/archive/2014/12/18/project-online-opening-projects-from-project-center-with-firefox.aspx - this can give this kind of error if you have spaces in the project name. Also make sure in Firefox you have the correct
association for the protocol handler (under Options, Applications) - it needs to have ms-project associated with 'Use Microsoft Office 2013 (default). If this doesn't work then maybe Fiddler will help identify what's going on. Please don't post
Fiddler traces to the forum though as they can capture passwords etc.

Just upgraded to Lion, can't open any pdf file downloaded from internet that was fine with Leopard. How can I overcome this obstacle ?

Just upgraded to Lion, can't open any pdf file downloaded from the internet that was fine with Leopard before. I just got a black screen when I clicked on a pdf icon on a given internet site, and same happened with several sites that I visited. How can I overcome this obstacle ?

Try two things with Safari not running:
1) Launch Adobe Reader, open its preferences, select the Internet category, and check the values under "Display PDF in browser using". If it's checked, try unchecking it.
2) Look in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins (at the top-level of your boot volume) for something names AdobePDFViewer.plugin. If you see such a file, try moving it to a folder named "Disabled Plug-Ins" (if such a folder exists) or onto the Desktop.
Then see how things work.

I've just subscribed to Acrobat Pro. Application manager is on desktop, but no Pro. When I open a PDF to edit, it's just Reader. What do i need to do to get the Pro?

I answered my own question: There's a difference between "download' and "install." Hunt for "install" (1.5 hrs in my case) and line up your passwords, Adobe ID, etc, then install. Took 15 min. The right choice shows up in Applications. Now it's on to figuring out why photo selected for edit in iPhoto does not show up on screen in Elements.

FileNotFoundException thrown when opening a file for writing from EJB

Hi,
I know it is against EJB rules that access file IO from EJB. However we have a legacy system to working with and we need to generate a text file on file system.
Weblogic (we are using 10.3) allows open a file for read from EJB. When we tried to open a writer like below:
BufferedWriter writer = new BufferedWriter( new FileWriter(fileName, false));
FileNotFoundException was thrown from the native method of open. The fileName is an absolute path and permission is properly set. The same piece of code can execute correctly in a test application with same filename.
Does anyone know how to achieve this or whether Weblogic just forbids this kind of output access?

Sorry guys. Just double-checked the source code and found out a bug produced wrong filename, the filename was surrounded by "", so FileNotFoundException is a correct result.
Weblogic does allow read/write external file.

Photoshop CS5 unable to open for edits from Lightroom 3

Have been experiencing numerous issue with the new LR and Photoshop not playing nice with each other on my Mac Pro w/10.6. Photoshop CS5 is will open in 1 attempt out of 8, and won't open from LR for editing purposes (it did once). Have been using in 32 bit mode to accommodate NIK and Topaz filters. I have reinstalled three times so far. Anyone got any ideas?

Try deleting the prefs folder for Photoshop. Mine was doing something like this where it would not open the image inside
of CS5 when you right click on the image and try an "open with". But it would work from the menu, most of the time. The cost is having to recreate custom settings inside Photoshop but since my CS5 was a new install as was LR3, it did not matter to me. It did require a reboot for the new preference file to fully take effect.
From Adobe's own workaround
5. Re-create the Photoshop preferences files.
Re-create the Photoshop preferences file to eliminate problems that a damaged preferences file might cause.
Note: Re-creating the Photoshop preferences file restores settings to their defaults.
To re-create the Photoshop preferences file:
Quit Photoshop.
Rename the Users\[username]\Library\Preferences\Adobe Photoshop CS3 Settings\Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp folder to Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.old.
Start Photoshop. Photoshop creates a new Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp file.
If the problem continues, then the Photoshop preferences file isn't the cause. To restore custom settings, quit Photoshop, then delete the new Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp file and restore the original name of the previous Adobe Photoshop CS3 Prefs.psp

Cannot open small PDF's directly from browser, only large ones

PDF's will not open when you click on it from a website. It gets "page cannot be displayed". However, you can right click and save, and then the PDF opens fine. This appears to only happen for "small" PDF files (< 5kb), while larger files (120KB+) open successfully.
We are using Acrobat Reader 9.1. We have uninstalled & re-installed Reader with no change in behavior.
Thanks for any advice,
Tom Pitts

Your posting somewhat confused me.
It sounds like you have two versions of Acrobat installed. You say you own Acrobat 9. You also say you installed a version of Acrobat CS 5.5. Does that mean you installed the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 on your computer as well? There is no such product as Acrobat CS5.5. CS5.5 would install Acrobat X.
However, if you had installed CS55 you may have to open at least one of the other CS5.5 applications before you can open Acrobat X. That's because Acrobat X is not well integrated into the Creative Suite.
Am I understanding your situation?

I can't open the PDF for the free install since both my emails did not come with a password. Did anyone else have this problem???

I purchased 2 new Macs, 1 a Mac Air 13" loaded and an iMac for my wife. I received 2 sets of emails, one with the code and the other with the PDF. When I tried to install last night, I would open the PDF and it asked for a password. I checked both sets of emails, which Aopple sent me 2 sets 3 days apart, and neither one had anything looking like a password. I called Apple Care and they said that it was on the sheet under the Thank hyou from Apple...NOT! She then said they would resend the emails again and hopefully have the password this time. Has anyone had this issue??????

Apparently it's related to the Firefox plug in.
This isn't exactly a solution but more of a way to avoid opening PDFs with Firefox's plug in.
1. Highlight "Tools" from the Menu Bar in the top left of the screen (or click "Options" if using the Firefox Compact Menu)
2. Select to "Options
3. Select "Applications"
4. Look for "Adobe Acrobat Document" under Content Type and to the right under Action select "Use Adobe Reader (default)" instead of the using Adobe Acrobat in Firefox
5. Open a test PDF. It should open in it's own window now.
Again, not a complete solution but something that'll at least let you scroll with PDFs open.

Opening a pdf document automatically from the program

Hi guys,
I wonder if it's possible to 'run'/open from a standalone appliation a pdf document. I mean, my program produces a pdf file and it saves it on the local c drive. once this is completed i wonder how can i open it and show it to the enduser. (I want to save the time and hassle of locating it and double clicking the document)
thanks
peter

Let me elaborate a little more on what I am trying to do.
(1) A website (#1) is opened after entering a UID and PWD.
(2) Within website #1, a link is clicked which opens a second web app (#2) in a seperate window using window.open().
(3) Within website #2, a user can click on a link which opens a PDF as _SELF.
(4) If the user:
(a) exits out of website #1 by closing the brower
(b) we would like to automatically close the PDF from website #2 also, as this contains sensitive information and most of the time the users are forgetting to close it

"Edit Distribution" doesn't open a window for edits

I know that to choose which address to use for someone in your address book who has multiple email addresses, you need to open "Edit Distribution." (FYI, I'm not in icloud and am not using smart groups.) When I click on "Edit Distribution" absolutely nothing happens, so I can't edit. Tried restarting, no result. Can anyone suggest what I should do?

Are you looking for Mac OS X Version 10.5.8
No. That's your Mac OS X.
You are troubleshooting third party Safari add-ons.
Do you think you can copy and paste a crash log here for us?
Open a Finder window. From the Menu Bar click Go / Go to Folder. Copy/paste this path into the Finder dialog: ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter
Click Go. The Finder will open containing the crash log. Copy and paste the most recent log here.
If you don't want to do that you can revert to a previous version of Safari here.
http://appletoolbox.com/2010/06/downgrade-from-safari-5-0-to-safari-4-0-5/
But if you have trouble distinguishing between a third party plugin and your operating system, I strongly advise you to not try that.
