Pdf does not appear in acrobat 9

So, when I open certain pdf documents they do not show up, only a gray background.  I believe I changed some setting that is causing this to happen.  The pdf is opened, it will appear in the Window menu list.  It will print, but I can't see it.  I can view it using Reader 9.  I can view it when I login as the administrator using acrobat 9.
Can someone help me figure out what setting I changed to cause this issue?

Thanks, that worked perfectly.  I knew it was a setting.

    Hi irenedix,
    After Adobe Download Assistant is installed, you can start it at any time and select a product to download at the bottom of the window. The list updates as new products become available to download with the Adobe Download Assistant.

  • Convert PDF Chrome extension does not appear/install (Acrobat XI)

    When I installed Acrobat XI, the Chrome extension to convert webpages to PDF does not install or appear in Chrome. I tried repair installation from Help menu of Acrobat, it still did not resolve the question. The extension also does not appear on the extension list, in case you're wondering its deactivated.
    Any help would be appreciated
    Cheers

    I think there might be some confusion about what you are asking since I think that the Adobe Acrobat Create PDF extension is only available for Adobe Acrobat Pro XI (11) and I don't think that you will find it in the version 10 directory (although I could be mistaken since I do not have version 10).  One you update to the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Pro XI (11), and also apply the latest updates to Google Chrome, then the extension should be enabled.  I am running Google Chrome version 33 and have Adobe Acrobat Pro version 11.0.6.70 and the extension works alright for converting basic webpages.  The Adobe installation directory that contains a copy of the extension depends on your operating system and installation and whether or not you have a 64-bit machine.  For example I am running Windows 7 64-bit and I was able to find a copy of the "WCChromeExtn.crx" extension file in the directory:  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\Acrobat\Browser\WCChromeExtn"
    On the other hand if you are asking how to install the "WCChromeExtn.crx" Adobe Acrobat Create PDF extension without updating Adobe Acrobat Pro, that is a much more advanced procedure.  If you have Windows 7 typically certain file types and locations that will not be indexed so you may not find what you are looking for with Windows search.  That is why someone suggested using a third party search indexer to find the extension file.  Another person suggested extracting the file from the Adobe update, and I also think that is the way to go.  However the method that was described previously is very complicated and uses a lot of unnecessary scripting for what you really need.  I propose that you download the latest update directly from Adobe and then extract the extension from the update file.  Here's how to do that in Windows:
    1. Download the latest update file from Adobe (e.g. "AcrobatUpd11006.msp")
    http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows
    2. If you are interested in some background on Windows Installer files, check out these links and read about MSP files and extracting resources, otherwise go to the next step:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/AdminGuide/basics.html#installer-file-ty pes
    http://www.jsware.net/jsware/msicode.php5
    3. Rename the incremental update MSP file extension to CAB (e.g. from "AcrobatUpd11006.msp" to "AcrobatUpd11006.cab")
    4. Use an archive utility such as WinRAR, WinZip, or 7-Zip to open the CAB file and extract the "WCChromeExtn.crx" CRX extension file
    5. Drag and drop the extension CRX file onto open Google Chrome window extension page to install and configure (chrome://extensions/)
    There are some other forum topics and a blog post that deals with some installation issues with the Google Chrome extension:

    I hope that this might help you with getting the extension installed.
    I currently am having some issues with the Adobe Acrobat Create PDF extension for Google Chrome when I try to convert secure https webpages, the output of the PDF converter does not retain my logon information, and does not convert the secure webpage.  The resulting output of the converted https webpage is either a logon screen or a blank pdf with only the URL listed at the bottom.  I hope that this might get fixed with an update or if anyone else might know of a workaround or solution.  Thanks.

  • Adobe PDF Does Not Appear In printer List

    My computer runs Windows XP. Acrobat Standard 6 is installed. "Adobe pdf" does not show in the list of printers. I have installed all available updates, but it still does not show in printer list. I have done a google search on this and have come up with nothing. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Try to re-install it, after deleting all folders from previous instalation. If still not works, lets see, are you the adm of your network? If not, may this is a network permission while trying to install a new printer. It can be different versions of acrobats installed at same computer too.

  • Save As....PDF does not open in Acrobat Reader

    I'm using a mac with all the lastest updates.
    I have version 11.0.03 of Adobe Reader
    When I use Safari to view a .PDF file, I can view it with no problems.
    The problem comes after I SAVE that file.  So when I'm viewing a site such as http://www.lightroomqueen.com/downloads/shortcuts/lightroom_shortcuts_40_mac.pdf and then in Safari I go... FILE>SAVE AS...and select that default file name with it's .pdf extension it does save to that destination.  But...when I try to open that .pdf file via Adobe Reader..OPEN...(filename.pdf) I receive this messege:
    "There was an error opening this document. The root object is missing or invalid."
    How do I correct this issue please?

    Don't use File Save in Safari.  As you can see it does not give you the expected results.  Instead, use either the disc icon either in the menu bar at the top or the disc icon at the bottom of the PDF in the HUD (Heads Up Display).

  • Convert PDF Chrome extension does not appear/install for Acrobat 10 Pro

    I have Acrobat 10 Pro and the Chrome extension to convert web pages to PDF does not appear in Chrome.  I tried repair installation from the Help menu in Acrobat and it still did not resolve this problem.  The extension also does not appear on the extension list, in case you're wondering if it's deactivated.  I am using Chrome Version 36.0.1985.143 m.
    I would appreciate the links and steps I need to take in order to get the Adobe Convert to Webpage Chrome extension to be visible and functional on my Chrome toolbar and in my extensions list. The PDFMaker shows up in Internet Explorer.  I do not use Firefox.
    I have already tried disabling all of my other Chrome extensions and run a repair of Acrobat via Actions.
    I tried uninstalling Google Chrome, restarted my computer, downloaded the latest Chrome installer, installed Chrome, and launched Acrobat and repair Acrobat. 
    I'm totally at a loss at this point.
    Can you please help?
    Thank you for your kind assistance!

    Hi angelczech,
    The convert pdf extension will not appear in Chrome with Acrobat 10.
    It will with Acrobat 11.

  • 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..

  • The "Adobe PDF" menu choice does not appear on Excel Menu

    I've installed Acrobat 9.1.2 and the "Adobe PDF" menu choice does not appear on the Excel 2000 Menu.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Microsoft Office option in PDF Maker with no change.  It does appear on the Word 2000 Menu.  Adobe 8.1.3 shows on all apps of Microsoft 2000 (on different computers.)

    According to Version Compatibility of Acrobat PDFMakers Office 2000 is not suupported by Acrobat 9.

  • Acrobat 9 does not appear in Install of CS4

    I have acrobat 8 pro running on my machine and just installed cs4.  Acrobat 9 does not appear on the install menu.  Any suggestions?

    Acrobat 9 is the cinderella of CS4 upgrades.
    Check if it appears as installed in the 'add/remove software' panel' under Adobe CS4. If it is, uninstall, restart, and install again. If it isn't same without uninstalling (hehe).
    I had to do this several times and still could't get MSOffice documents printed as pdf.
    If you have that problem as well, try this:
    Delete all instances of Adobe pdf maker from Printers.
    Start Acrobat and try creating a new pdf out of an existing Office doc.
    If you're lucky, Acrobat's self-repair function should start and solve the problem (I think I had to restart for this though).
    Hope this helps.

  • Adobe pdf printer does not appear

    I downloaded Adobe Reader 9 to my HP laptop, but the Adobe pdf printer does not appear on the list of available printers. My HP says it has AMD Turion (tm) 64 Mobile Technology ML-34 and Windows XP (Version 2002, Service Pack 2). Can someone tell me how to get the Adobe pdf printer to appear in the list of available printers? Thanks. dmm

    Reader is just for the reading pdf files. It does not create pdf files.
    For that you need one of the commercial Acrobat products. If you only
    need to create 5 or less pdfs, then you can use Acrobat.com.

  • I'm attempting to create a pdf from InDesign and the Illustrator image does not appear properly.

    I'm attempting to create a pdf from InDesign and the Illustrator logo does not appear properly. The logo has a light blue color background with a black to white gradiant over it with a multiply designation set at 100%.  I flattened the logo in illustrator before importing into InDesign. When the pdf is created, the blue background of the logo drops out and the only thing showing is the graduated screen of black. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

    Thanks for your reply Peter,
    I'm on Mac OSX (10.5.8) using Acrobat 7 Professional and Acrobat 
    Reader 9 to view the pdf. I created it by exporting. Attached is a 
    screen capture of the letterhead. Since I posted, I sent a test pdf to 
    my partner's computer eventhough it didn't look right on my system and 
    she said it looked fine to her. I've restarted my computer and tried 
    again and still get the same results.
