PDF Initial Browser doesn't open PDF with Bookmarks as initial view - Problem (Help)

I've saved a PDF with Initial view of Bookmarks panel and
page opn my client and it opens with the bookmarks. I publish the
file from my PC via Contribute and open it with my browser and it
opens in the pages view. NOTE: when i open the PDF in Contribute,
it opens with no special view.....

Hey Jacksoup --
I don't believe this is a "Contribute" issue at all.  I'm having the same problem with a .PDF of my own that I've published to the Web and I'm not using that software. 
I had one original .pdf file that had no bookmarks.  Bookmarks were then added to the doc and resaved.  On the new version I have the document's file properties set to open bookmarks on initial view.  The document opens fine locally on my computer, but when I publish to the web (not using contribute), and then try to open the .pdf via hyperlink it opens in MSIE and the bookmarks do not appear on initial view.  It's driving me crazy.
I'm wondering if this is some sort of adobe cache issue?  Where it's opening the document like the original?  Or if it's something to do with MSIE?  I have already cleared my browser cache and I also updated my adobe acrobat preferences to NOT restore last view settings when opening documents. 
I have tried adding #pagemode=Bookmarks to the end of the URL to the doc...
Everything I've read and researched on line tells me I have done all I can do.  Are we just $#!+ out of luck here or what's the deal Adobe?
Thank you for your time!

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Adobe Reader doesn't open .pdf files anymore. Error: 213:11.

    Adobe Reader doesn't open .pdf files anymore. It's written Error: 213:11. Details: laptop with Windows XP, Adobe Reader X

    Are these local or online documents?  If online, in what browser?  If local, does the documents folder and docs themselves have sufficient permissions?
    Is there anything else beside the number 213:11?

  • FF 6.0 doesn't open pdf-links, after clicking on "open pdf" error message says file not supported or damaged. IE opens file all right. Please advice.

    Firefox 6.0 doesn't open pdf-links after clicking on "open pdf". I frequently need to do literature searches and I need to view pdf files in the browser. After clicking on the pdf - link of a file the main options are to open or download the pdf. Every time I try to open a pdf-file a blank page and an error message appears saying the file would not be supported or is damaged. IE, however, opens the file all right. I tried various changes in the security and cookie settings without success. Please advice.

    Hi SGckc,
    This document is almost certainly a dynamic XFA form. Unfortunately, our mobile Reader does not support displaying or filling such forms. The application that produces this form embeds this message into the document so that non-supportive viewers (like ours) will display this "error" page when the document opens. I do realize that this is confusing and I would like to add some additional detection to our Reader for this case. However, we've avoided doing this for fear of confusing users even further. Your feedback helps though. Hopefully we'll find a way to detect this case and present a better message to the user like: This form is not supported by the mobile version of the Adobe Reader. Please open and fill it on the non-mobile version of the Adobe Reader for Windows, Linux or Mac OSX.
    Thank you for contacting us!

    there is no share button in preview
    I am seeing a Share button in Preview's toolbar, Larry:  Can you see the screenshot?
    The content of the Share menu will depend on the file format. For PDFs the menu will be nearly empty and iPhoto and aperture are missing.

  • Safari 5.1 doesn't open PDFs in-line

    Hi. My Safari doesn't open PDF files in-line. It is just downloading them and after that opens them in Preview. No Adobe Reader has ever been installed. Need your help. Thanks

    Hello Tyj
    Go to System Preferences / General. Deselect: Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps under Number of recent items.
    That should do the trick
    Thanks

    Browser doesn't open any "https pages" and i can't add my Google account.
    Time is correct.

    Maybe you should check the HyperText Transfer Protocol Secure (https) option within the browser settings
    Check if the cookies could be accepted.

  • I started to learn HTML, and I'm using text edit and everything is going fine, when I save the file with a .html extension and open it with safari I only view the code and not the webpage that was supposed to be created.

    I started to learn HTML, and I'm using text edit and everything is going fine, when I save the file with a .html extension and open it with safari I only view the code and not the webpage that was supposed to be created.

    That is because you don't have a web server configured and running to serve the html page. In order to see the page in a browser you need to access it using a url similar to http://localhost/~yourUserName if you are serving the page from your user account.
    Prior to Mountain Lion you could go into web sharing and turn on the web server. With Mountain Lion there is no option, other than using terminal, to turn on the web server. The web sharing menu item has been removed in Mountain Lion. Apache is still on your computer but it will take a little searching these forums or the Internet to find how to turn it on.
    If you want a graphic user interface to turn on/off the Apache server you could download and install a server application like xampp, http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html. I use this and it works well.

  • Why Acrobat Reader doesn't open pdf-files from Safari?

    I'm new Mac user and cannot find answer why I cannot open pdf-files directly from Safari. My Macbook OS X 10.9.3 and Safari is 7.0.4. Only way to open pdf-files is to download the content first and then open it. If I try to open it directly Acrobat says "Before proceeding you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the end user license agreement". I have downloaded Acrobat Reader several times already and cannot understand what I'm doing wrong.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari.

  • I enable Display PDF in browser but still opens in Reader

    Our current client PC's are Windows XP 32-bit, IE 7, using Adobe X v.10.1.2. We have an application that opens PDF files. We have the parameter "Display PDF in browser" enabled and it opens in the browser as it should.
    However, new PC's are built with Windows 7 63-bit, IE 8, using Adobe X v.10.1.2. Using the same application with the parameter "Display PDF in browser" enabled, it always asks if you want to open in Reader or save the file. That shouldn't happen. It does this whether the paramter is enabled or disabled, it also does this using 32bit IE 8 or 64bit.
    Is this a Adobe bug, Win 7 bug, or how can we make it open in the browser? Using another browser is not an option. IE is the company standard.
    Thanks

    Does it work correctly on "normal" web pages, e.g. the PDF links near the bottom of http://forums.adobe.com/community/adobe_reader_forums ?
    In a 32-bit browser, the PDFs should open inside the browser.
    With a 64-bit browser, the PDFs will open in an external Adobe Reader window.

  • Export to PDF from Autocad: Acrobat always opens PDF with 'layers panel and page' shown.

    Hello,
    Whenever I export to PDF from Autocad, Adobe Acrobat opens the PDF with the 'Layers Panel and Page' shown.
    Each time I have to manually go to 'Properties' and select 'Page only', close 'Properties' and close the PDF and select to save the changes, in order to show the just the page.
    Is there a way to make PDFs always export to 'Page only' automatically as default?
    Thanks!
    Ione

    Thakns Peter, I had seen this thread, but it doesn't really address my issue. I've exported individual chapters from the book file, all with success, so I know there isn't a file corruption issue.  The problem seems to do more with memory allocation/usage. 
    I have tried: quitting and then immediately exporting the file, and even rebooting and then relanuching and exporting.  Both of these allow me to get a few pages farther along, but still not through the entire book.
    I remember back in the day there used to be a setting for how much RAM/dis c space was allocated to a certain applicatino (I knowm it was a long time ago).  I didn't know if there might be something like this hidden somewhere

  • Opening pdf in browser leaves copy of pdf file on desktop

    Guess I'm having a "bald moment" (never was blond).... Whenever I open a pdf file in a browser (Safari or Firefox) a copy of the pdf file is actually downloaded to my desktop. If I am updating my online bank accounts this leaves dozens of files cluttering the desktop that I have to later delete. I have not been able to figure out how to change this behavior. Any suggestions?
    thanks

    "How about browser preferences? are you using 10.4.8? that would mean over two years without updates."
    There's nothing I can find in the browser prefs that affects this behavior. I'm running 10.5.7 of OSX.
    "Are you using Acrobat? latest 9.1+? a browser plug-in? to view pdfs?"
    Firefox launches Acrobat to open pdfs. I have the latest version the Acrobat reader. Safari uses Preview.
    "I'm not surprised a file is saved to disk. But does the browser delete temp files on quit or closing?"
    Actually, I am quite surprised that a copy of a pdf opened via a browser is left lying around. This is bad behavior.
    There is no temp file. Immediately upon clicking the url and the pdf file opening, there is a copy of the file on the desktop.
    "Other things to try: backup your system (clone, so it is bootable) and repair the drive and permissions with SuperDuper and Disk Warrior. Just to be sure you have backup, and that it is working properly."
    I don't really get the fixation on these forums with repairing permissions. It is unlikely to fix anything other that an app that will not run or that cannot access one of its supporting files. I've used Macs since they came into existence and have worked with UNIX almost as long. I have NEVER seen a problem fixed by repairing permissions and have never seen permissions actually repaired except after a software install. And that is a symptom of a poorly designed installer. Sorry to rant.
    Thanks for the reply.

  • Outlook '07 Doesn't Open PDF Links

    I am running Outlook 2007 on Windows XP Pro. I have also got Adobe 9.1 Reader and the latest Adobe Flash installed.
    If I receive a link to a PDF in Outlook and I double click it tries to open the file in IE8, even then it come back with a blank grey screen. Previous when I had Outlook 2003 it would open in Adobe. I have tried the Display PDF in Browser option ticked and unticked.
    What do I need to install and where from.

    Yes, Claudio, I clicked "Open" several times. It prompts me to install the Reader, which I do, and the result is the same.
    Thanks for your response.
