PDF cannot be merge in Acrobat Standard 5

Hi
Am using Acrobat Standard 5. When trying to merge PDF, below error appear. Wonder if anyone can guide me on how to solve this problem ?
These documents contain subsets fonts that have the same name and cannot be merged

With the older versions like AA5, you had to print to a new PDF to do many things that are built in to Acrobat today or can be done with preflight. In this case try to print and select the job options to embed all fonts at 100%. You may have to save the job settings to a new name for this (the files are write protected). Then try to combine.

I am on a Windows 7 OS attempting to reduce pdf size with my Adobe Acrobat Standard XI & Pro. The application keeps timing out and at the Subsetting embedded fonts portion and the application gives "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working" and then closes. The document is 275 pages. Is there something I can do to stop this?

Hi Ricci,
Since when are you facing this issue? Did you tried system restore to a date before this problem occured.
Does acrobat stop working when you open this specific pdf file or with any pdf file that you open?

Copying tables in pdf's to excel in Acrobat Standard 7.0.8

Hi there
I am having problems copying tables of numbers from pdf's into excel in Acrobat Standard 7.0.8. I am finding that when I select data in a table, right-click, and select 'Copy As Table', only about 50% of the time will the data be pasted correctly into appropriate rows and columns in Excel. The rest of the time the all of the data is pasted into a single cell making it impossible to work with.
I have tried various permutations of the settings under Edit > Preferences > General > Selection for 'Text Selection Margin' and 'Column Selection Margin', although have never found anything that fixes the problem.
The unusual thing is that I used to have Acrobat version 5, in which copying data from pdf's to excel used to work *perfectly*.
Does anyone have any suggestions about how to fix this feature in version 7? Your thoughts much appreciated. Thanks.

It only copies correctly if you have a table that was created with the proper markup. It sounds like some of the tables you have appear to be tables, but are missing the markup. As I understand the process in the current Acrobat versions, you will not be able to create the fields correctly in that case.
With AA5 (or maybe it was AA6), you could select a column much like selecting a graphic. That is no longer available, but would have met your need. Bill

Windows 8: Make PDFs open by default in Acrobat Standard or Pro instead of Reader

In a Windows 8 environment, how can you set set all PDFs to open in Acrobat Standard or Professional instead of Reader? I've tried right-clicking on a PDF in Windows Explorer, selecting Properties, then changing the default app from Reader to Professional. Although it seems to work (does not generate an error), PDFs continue to open in Reader. Surely there is a way to change this. I've spent about 15 minutes Googling this, but was surprised I could find no solution.

Open PDF files in IE by Acrobat Standard 8 instead of Reader

Hi,
I have an issue when I open PDF files in Internet Explorer.
On my computer, Acrobat Reader 7 and Acrobat Standard 8 are installed.
I want that Acrobat Standard 8 opens my PDF files instead of Acrobat Reader 7.
There is 2 conditions : I can't (I mustn't) uninstall Acrobat Reader 7 !
How can I fix it?
Thank you for your help ;o)

Sure, I know that :o)
What I want to do is with Acrobat, not Reader.
In fact, I want to open PDF files with Acrobat in Internet Explorer 6 (now, I can do it) then modify directly any (unprotected) PDF files within IE.

Be sure no aspects of AR7 are running in the background (part of the typical problem). Be sure that AA8 is the default in the selection of PDF files. Last, open AA8 before you start IE. I am not sure these will resolve the issue, but they might be worth a try.

Acrobat Standard 8 missing the "save as" file types

Hello, I'm having an issue trying to save/convert documents from Adobe Standard 8. When I choose "save as" the only choice is as a .pdf. When I choose convert, regardless of which format I choose the only choice is again .pdf
Windows xp professional, Adobe Acrobat Standard version 8
Help.......
thanks

1) You're missing all the Photoshop updates
2) You're missing required plugins - all of them.
Looks like something went wrong with your install -- uninstall, then reinstall and make sure you get all the updates.

Safe PDF version when merge files

I've worked in separate .indd files and export each file to PDF (version 1.3). When I merge PDFs in Acrobat, merget files is with changed version (probably default).
I tried to find where are settings in merging, but failed. Can you help me?

Hi Sukrit,
It's strange to have no possibilities to change default version!
It's strange when merging PDFs to change their initial PDF version!
So in this way need to produce individial PDFs (in PDF 1.3), merge it (Acrobat change to PDF 1.6), save it to .ps and distill it (to original PDF 1.3). Very, very inefficient!!!

Adobe Acrobat Standard v 8 works, but print-to-PDF does not

I've been trying to migrate my main computer usage from an XP desktop to a Windows 7 laptop. I've had Acrobat Standard v 8 on both computers for years but have rarely used the laptop. (I mostly used the laptop as a dumb terminal to reach through the internet to my desktop.) Now I'm determined to make the laptop into my daily WORKING computer.
I see that Acrobat Standard works on the laptop (opens files, deletes pages, etc.) but I cannot print anything to PDF. When I try to print (from Notepad, Word, or anything) the "Adobe PDF" printer shows as my default printer. But nothing happens. It doesn't ask for a filename and the printer window (?) shows error on printing.
I uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat Standard 8 in January 2013 when it had stopped working altogether (opening a PDF would flash open then close/crash) which was probably caused by "a friend" installing an unlicensed (or wrongly licensed) version of Microsoft Office 2010. I uninstalled all of that mush and put a new version of Office on (2013, licensed). I don't recall if the print-to-PDF has worked since; but I suspect not.
Does anyone know how to fix it?
I'm afraid to uninstall and reinstall the whole Acrobat again. Someone once told me that you can only re-activate your license so many times and then one day it won't reactivate. And since my version is so old and has been reinstalled after virus cleanups (reformatting system disks), I don't know if Tech Support will fix that sort of activation problem. That last thing I want to do is use new software, or have to go to a non-Adobe PDF editor when I already have software paid for. And yes, I have the original Acrobat Standard v 8 CDs.

1. I don't care about the button in Word; just trying to get a PRINT-TO-PDF function going.
2. The CD installed 8.0.0 even though I have 8.1.4 on my other computer (the XP desktop I'm trying to make obsolete). I will try to find upgrade downloads somewhere.
3. I tried to use the original CD and do a "Repair" option (not remove nor install). It went through the motions and would come up with an error. So I googled and found the article titled "Error "The file AdobePDF.dll is needed" | CS3 | 64-bit Windows" (http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-file-adobepdf-dll-needed.html) and applied the directions for Windows 7 64-bit version (which my laptop is), but the fix didn't work.
Still researching, and #2 above looks like the best next course of action.

I cannot see certain colors/photos/boxes in Adobe Acrobat Pro 11. Can in Reader, and in Acrobat Standard 11

I have a customer who uses Adobe Acrobat Pro 11. When she receives PDFs, she cannot see the color green, certain boxes(most of the ones she cannot see all have green in them),and pictures. When I opened this same PDF document in Adobe Reader 11, Adobe Acrobat Standard 11, and Fox it reader, I could see everything as normal. Her version of Acrobat is up to date. I posted this Acrobat installations & Update Issues, not sure if correct or not. She has Windows 7 Professional 64x
Thank you.

Hey mmartinez,
Please let me know what is the OS version on the system being used by your customer?
Have you tried sending any other PDF files to her? Has she started facing this issue after updating Acrobat?
Hope to get your response.

WIN 7/32-bit, Acrobat Standard 9, can't save pdf in "libraries" folders

I am running Windows 7/32-bit with Acrobat Standard 9.3.2, the operating system is fully patched and updated.
For some odd reason, when I try to convert an office document (working in Office 2003) via the "convert to PDF" button in the "acrobat PDF" toolbar I can't save the document in my "libraries" folder. This folder of course contains "my documents" and is where I prefer to save most of my PDF files. I click on "libraries" to select the place to save the PDF but all that comes up is "no items match your search."
Alternatively, if I try to print the office document to the Adobe PDF printer I get to the menu where it asks where I want to save the PDF file and again, I cannot access the libraries folder. Other locations work fine, such as the desktop, network folders, accessing the C drive and doing down the tree to "my documents', but not the actual libraries folder. Acrobat almost seems to think it is blank.
I'd appreciate any ideas, as I have several users under me in the same position.

Hi Guys,
I have the solution to your problems and I will go ahead an explain it in detail so that no questions will be raised.
I have struggled to get WINDOWS 7 (32BIT) to run on the Touchsmart 300 PC now for three days (and nights) but I know how you can do it.
The problem lies within the VGA Adapter (Graphics Card) this little buddy has incompatible drivers with the inbuilt functions of the Touchsmart PC in its generic (Windows Preloaded) form. Therefore what you can do is the this.
Step 1: Insert Windows 7 (32Bit) disk and start the setup process and follow it until it hits the problem. (Millisecond of Bluescreen)
Step 2: Once the PC starts booting repeatedly press F8 (I mean it just keep on pressing that button until you can select "Safe Mode")
Step3: Once Windows Setup screen is back it will tell you an error! Which is good. INSTEAD of pressing "OK" (to restart) press SHIFT + F10 (opens the command prompt)
Step4: You should automatically be in \Windows\System32 now enter the following command: CompMgmtLauncher (This is the Device Manager).
(If the default directory is not System32 the navigate to it by entering "cd windows" and "cd system 32" (cd = change directory)
Step5: In the Device Manager (do not worry it will take some time to load) select navigate to "Display Adapters" - "ATI Radeon ..." RIGHT-CLICK on it and choose disable. (To be sure Windows will not have any other troubles you should do the same for all highlighted devices. the once with the yellow triangle)
Step6: Once this is done restart your system and let the install run into the normal mode and finish the install.
Step7: Once Windows starts for the first time. Use the provided ATI Radeon Driver from HP (NOT the original one) from the support download website to install the correct driver.
Step8: Resart and enjoy!
Hope this helps and let me say to AMD/ATI yopu guys really suck at your one product drivers!
Cheers and Out.

Does Acrobat Standard allow "mail merge" or do I need to purchase Acrobat Professsional to do that?

I'm trying to use Mail Merge to fill in an Adobe PDF form with information from an Excel spreadsheet.
I'm reading some stuff that says Adobe Acrobat Professional has such a tool. Does the Acrobat Standard have this capability? Is there a free download
for Auto Mail Merge?

There are a variety of tools in Acrobat, especially for programmers, but nothing I'd really call a mail merge - nothing like the feature in Word.
However, you really aren't in the right place for advice. Try an Acrobat forum, CreatePDF is a web service for people without Acrobat. I recommend you include the address (URL) of the web page where it talks about this feature, it could mean several things.

I have acrobat standard and it will not allow me to edit.. every file i go to open it says "there is a active file open and must close in acrobat" other times it says account cannot be validated after I have already paid for it.. please advise

Hi Timothy,
The account cannot be validated error was due to a glitch on our activation server that has been fixed now.
Please try using acrobat now and check if you are still facing the problem.

Blank error when opening a PDF in Acrobat Standard 9

how do a edit a scanned pdf? In photoshop or acrobat 9 standard If in photoshop, how do I copy, move and save a letter or word?

You can open a pdf in the PSE editor. When you open the pdf, a dialog will ask you which page to chose (if it's a multipage pdf) and which parameters to use for the conversion to bitmap.
Since you are on a flattened bitmap (psd, tiff, png, jpeg...) all text will be converted and you won't be able to edit text (which is vector format).
