Opening .pdf web documents with Acrobat XI Standard

After installing Acrobat XI, when I click the hyperlink "view" for .pdf statements in either of my two brokerage company accounts, or click on a hyperlink to open a .pdf document in a web document, the .pdf gets downloaded but not opened. So I have to view .pdf documents from my "Downloads" folder, rather than having them simply open in a new page or tab when I click on them. (The new tab either quickly disappears or stays open, but is blank. Only the Download location works to open the .pdf file.) I don't know whether this is an Adobe issue with Acrobat XI or something else causing my computer not to open the .pdf files. I am running Acrobat XI Standard in the Windows Vista Home Premium OS on a Gateway GT5678 PC.

Many thanks for the quick response, Bill. On your hunch that the browser
might make a difference, I tried clicking on the same sites' .pdf files in
Chrome and IE, rather than my normal Firefox browser. They opened on-screen
without a problem. Looks like I may have a Java plugin problem in Firefox,
rather than an AA XI issue. Also looks like Windows Vista supports AA XI
without a problem.

How to automatic encrypt documents with Acrobat 9 standard ?

Hello,
I wont to encrypt documents automatically if the document is saved with a standard password.
Is that possible ?
I have the feeling it should be possibe with some jave code which is invoked during document close.
The background for this question is that there is a application running with automatically creates PDF-files using Acrobat standard, and sends the files with smtp-email. I want to enctypt this files and there is no chance to configre the application in this way.
Thanks,
Thomas

I have installed the following Javascript and still have problems to execute the function "this.encryptUsingPoliciy", the error message is "is not a function". It seems that "this" does not identify the currently opend document.
Using the variable "doc" the code runs errorfree and does what I want, but only on the new opened document.
I simply want to encrypt every document which is opened and saved with a Security Policy !
What I'm doing wrong ?
Thanks,
Thomas
/* Applying a Security Policy to a PDF Document */
/* You need to create a security policy before running this script */
/* Use "Advanced > Security > Manage Security Policies" menu */
var ApplySecurity = app.trustedFunction(
function()
var oMyPolicy = null;
var sPolicyName = "StandardPassword";
app.beginPriv();
// First, Get the ID of StandardPassword security policy
var aPols = security.getSecurityPolicies();
for(var i=0; i<aPols.length; i++)
     if(aPols[i].name == sPolicyName)
          oMyPolicy = aPols[i];
          break;
if(oMyPolicy != null)
     // Now, Apply the security Policy
     // var doc = app.newDoc();
     // var rtn = doc.encryptUsingPolicy({oPolicy: oMyPolicy});
     var rtn = this.encryptUsingPolicy({oPolicy: oMyPolicy});
      if(rtn.errorCode != 0)
           // Print error message into JavaScript Debugger Console
           console.println("Security Error: " + rtn.errorText);
app.endPriv();
ApplySecurity();

Open PDF in IE8 with Acrobat, not Reader ?

Hi Chaps,
I used to be able to open a PDF from a HTML link, which would then open in Internet Explorer 8 using Adobe Acrobat.
Since installing Adobe Reader, all PDFs open in IE8 using Reader, instead of Acrobat, so now I cannot edit the PDF.
I've searched through Preferences in both programs, changed all associated program file types to Acrobat, reinstalled Acrobat but I cannot get it back!
I'm using Windows 7 [64-bit], Acrobat 9, Reader 9.
If anyone knows which option to change, it'll help me out no end!

Adobe doesn't support Reader and Acrobat on the same Windows computer. Uninstall Reader and then re-install Acrobat.

Hi higi97,
How are you connected to the internet? Are you behind a particularly secure corporate firewall? Are you on Mac or Windows? Do you have any anti-malware software running on your machine that may be preventing applications other than your browser from connecting to the internet?
You may try to follow the steps below:
1.Close the Creative Cloud application.
2.Navigate to the OOBE folder.
Windows: [System drive]:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
Mac OS: /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE folder
3.Delete the opm.db file.
4.Launch Creative Cloud.
Let us know if that helps,
Regards,
Rave

How to convert large Word 2007 doc (1200 KB) to PDF with Acrobat 9 Standard

I'm trying to convert a large Word 2007 document to PDF with Acrobat 9 Standard. It gets as far as 58% and then says it is unable to complete the conversion. How can I fix this?

The file you are working on is really not that large. There probably is a problem on a certain page of the document. Break the document in half. Try to create a pdf file from each half. Hopefully, one half prints properly and one-half does not. Take the half that does not break it in half. Try to convert each half into a pdf, etc...
Eventually, you will find which page has a problem. Most likely there is a graphic or a font used on that page that has problem. Most likely a graphic. That graphic will need to be recreated.

Blank error message with ? appears and PDF does not open in Browser (IE11) when clicking link to open pdf. PC - IE11 Acrobat 9.0

Blank error message with ? appears and PDF does not open in Browser (IE11) when clicking link to open pdf. PC - IE11 Acrobat 9.0
Cannot access in browser PDF files unless blank box is closed and then website address is clicked on again in browser address bar and page reloaded.
Uninstalled Acrobat 9, reinstalled, still same problem.
Help please!

Yes I can it only happens in the browser..
I reinstalled Windows on my machine and started over a couple of weeks ago.
When my desktop started up I didn’t have Acrobat installed and clicked on a pdf file and the open with xxx dialogue box came open.
I chose a different program as Acrobat wasn’t installed yet so it associated pdf files with another program.
Later Installed Acrobat and couldn’t associate the pdf file with acrobat so I went into Folder Options and manually associated PDF files with Acrobat.
Ever since then I get the error when something is downloaded and opened in the browser.
Works fine everywhere else and when I cancel the blank error, highlight the web address and press enter to reload it works 90% of the time.
Not sure what to do..

Adobe X PDF files converted to jpg, edited and converted back to PDF have ragged, unclear text. I didn't have this problem with Acrobat 9 standard. What is the remedy for this. If this is the best I can expect, I won't be able to use X standard.

I can't imagine any worse workflow than converting to JPEG to edit text, then back to PDF. Text in a PDF is a vector thing, smooth at all resolutions. And JPEG is made for photos. EVERY conversion to JPEG and back loses quality but how much loss there is will vary.
If you must go to an image format, try PNG.

How do you convert an Autocad drawing into a pdf with Acrobat X Standard?

How do you convert an Autocad drawing into a pdf with Acrobat X Standard?

Something to try -
Having installed Acrobat Standard you have the Adobe PDF virtual printer installed.
From your authoring application do a "file-print" and select the Adobe PDF printer rather than the attached local or network printer / plotter.
Be well...

I have a weird problem, i'm trying to open a WEBI report with OpenDocument.jsp and I get the following error message
An error has occurred: Could not find the document.

How do I make this work, our standard web browser is Internet explorer.
here is a sample link i use to call my report.

Can I certify a document with Acrobat Reader ?

Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to certify a document with Acrobat Reader. The sign toolbar button "Certify" in Reader is always disabled even if the document has not been signed. Thanks in advance.

I just tried it. Even saved a document with Reader Extended PDF and a signature field (which you can only do with Acrobat). I opened in Reader but could not certify it (although I could digitally sign in). I can certify in Acrobat.
It's possible you can certify a Portfolio (container for PDF docs) using Reader. However, right now that's not working with the current version of Acrobat or Reader. (Adobe engineering is working on that - see my recent posting).
It's also possible that the bug with certifying/signing Portfolios is also preventing other actions from happening. I don't know.

Does only Adobre Reader "reads" the fields of a PDF when created with Acrobat?

I created a PDF with several fields and exported it.
Then I tried to open it with Firefox and the fields didn't appear.
But it works OK with Adobe Acrobat.
Does only Adobre Reader "reads" the fields of a PDF when created with Acrobat?

Adobe software reads form fields. The rules for how to do form fields are a part of the PDF standard (a book available to anyone) but some companies ignore it and others do half a job. To be safe, use only Adobe Reader. And beware of browsers that ignore Adobe Reader even if you have it.

How to open PDFs by default with Adobe Reader?

Hi everybody!!
I used to have Adobe Acrobat but I don't have it any more.
When I had Acrobat the PDFs in my sistem and the PDFs in the web were opened without problems by Acrobat but now I just have Adobe Reader (not Acrobat) and the PDFs in my sistem and on the web are not opened and can't read them...
Even the PDFs in my sistem don't show the PDF icon as when I had Acrobat installed.
What could I do to be able to open PDFs by default with my Adobe Reader?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Right click on a PDF file and select Open with, then select the Always open with button. Search for Adobe Reader and go from there. This is an OS feature, not a Reader feature. For further questions about Reader, check the Reader forum.

THis is safe for Mac's? Sorry, I have just never heard of this site before.
And there are literally tens of thousands of sites of which I've not heard, too. Not this one.
It's legit. There are lots of links in Apple Support Communities to the LibreOffice web site, as well as others that are legitimate open-source developers of options to buying MS Office, such as NeoOffice and OpenOffice. I have Open Office installed on one of my older Macs that can't run Office 2011 and it is rock-solid.
I've been here too long to start posting bogus urls now.

Can anyone give a code snippet for opening a webi document in release3. The same code works in release 2.
Thanks
Shruti

You have a "NoClassDefFoundError", so a code snippet won't help.
XI Release 2 -> XI 3, then jar files have been renamed and object files refactored.
You've ended up with mixed XI Release 2 and XI 3 jars.
Remove your jars and re-add from XI 3.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda
