PDF opens with areas highligthed (bright blue, yellow, red)

Since my last upgrade, I have noted my PDF documents not opening properly - the areas of the form that I am opening - PDF - are highlighted, as you would with a highlighter...very strange.  Our IT has looked into the issue, but no one can help me, so I reach out to you all for assistance.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • I am having trouble viewing the entire content of a PDF opened with adobe reader on my ipad.

    I am having trouble viewing the entire content of a PDF opened with adobe reader on my ipad. Mi am able to view the file in its entirety on my Mac but not on my ipad.  I have tried saving it to acrobat but that doesn't work either.  Any suggestions please.

    Hi,
    When you say the entire content, do you mean some parts of the pdf are not getting displayed or is it going out of the screen?
    Please send a pdf you are having issues with on chmaheshatadobedotcom, it will help us investigating the problem.

  • Links inside PDF open with Reader app, but not IE plugin. Why? Help!

    I am including some PDFs on a dvd. I link to them from a webpage also on the dvd. Some of these pdfs have links to other pdfs on the disc. While testing, one machine opens the main pdfs in the Adobe Reader application and their links work fine. On another, the main pdfs open with the Reader plugin for IE and none of their links work. What would be causing this?

    I'm still testing, but I'll try and create some sample pdfs. I'm not sure how the ones I'm having difficulty with were created. I suspect Word and then converted using Distiller, but not sure. Thanks for your offer.
    So far I've tested a number of machines with inconsistent results. Works on an XP machine running IE7 and Reader 8. Doesn't work on an XP machine running IE8 and Reader 9.4. Works on a Windows 7 machine running IE8 and Reader 9.4. This is getting confusing.

  • Pdf opens with microsoft picture manager not acrobat

    Whenever i click to open a  pdf file, my computer opens it in microsoft picture manager and not adobe acrobat.
    Is there somewhere i can change the settings to make it so pdf s always open with adobe.
    Sometimes I get the option to right click and choose 'open with'  acrobat, but not always.
    How do i fix this?

    Most likely this is because FilePlanet is using one of the image formats that DE doesn't support (JBIG2 or JPEG2000 - see the answer to "Which PDF features are not supported by Digital Editions" in the

  • Can not type on forms on PDF opened with Reader 9.2

    When I open a PDF file with a form I need to fill out I get the I beam tool. I click that in the cell I want to type in and I get the blinking curser. When I start typing nothing appears on the form. I even unstalled 9.2 and installed 7 and had the same problem. How can I fix this.

    I though It was fillable because the sender of the PDF contacted me to find out why I had not fill out the form and returned it. This is a standard form he sends to many, many people across the country. I told him about my problem with the reader. He indicated that it was my problem. He is going to sent me the form in a different format.

  • PDFs open with reader instead of Acrobat Pro

    OS: WinXP
    A/Reader version: 9.3.4
    A/Acrobat Pro version: 7
    Issue:
    PDFs open in the Reader and not in Acrobat Pro.  I changed the File Association to open them with Acrobat Pro and it works fine for the rest of the day, but when I log in the next day it reverts back to opening in A/Reader again.  This is an issue because of the way we have to access the PDFs at work, from within IE on a server.
    Someone at work thought there might be a registry hack needed to fix this.  I have looked at the registry entries for Reader and Pro, but there's nothing obvious to me.
    One other thing that I have not tried as yet is to log in as Administrator and select (tick) the "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" option.  Maybe it might seem obvious that this is what's needed, but it was working fine prior to last week.  The tick is greyed out when logged in as a 'normal' user, but the tick is on too.
    I guess someone will suggest I do this anyway and see if it resolves the problem, before looking at the registry.  :-)
    Many thanks in advance for all suggestions.

    Mostly you will get the suggestion to remove one or the other from your system and repair or reinstall the remaining application. It is not a recommended or supported configuration having both.
    Another suggestion is to reinstall Acrobat Pro. That works for about 4 out of 10 people.

  • Hyperlinks in InDesign and Exported to PDF Open with %%%

    Hi,
    I am working on a document for our intranet. I have created a link inside of the InDesign document for a document that is accessible on our network:
    K:\Master Documents\O & M's\(ID) Files\O&M Static Files for Booking\2-2_Troubleshooting.pdf
    When I PDF my document, save it to the intranet location, and then try to launch the link, the following dialogue box opens
    What is up with all of the % signs? And how do I get the lnk to actually work properly?
    Thanks!

    Hi Michael, I did take out all special characters, there were underscores anyway not spaces :=} no ampersands, or anything like that.
    I have InDesign version 6 and Windows 7, I also upgraded to Adobe Reader 9.2, but I think that has nothing to do with the export functions of InDesign. I was thinking I would try and reset the preferences back to default, see if that helps. Perhaps I ought to also try and install an updated Adobe Acrobat version?
    What's weird is that there are hyperlinks to URLs via http:// all over the document, that work fine. Its the file:// prefix that is not resolving at all. I even tried to select URL and then type with forward slashes file://server/folder/folder yet that didn't yield any result -- actually InDesign changed the classification of the hyperlink from URL back to file.  When I repro, sometimes I get a dialog that says the file is not available, sometimes I get no response from the system, meanwhile the tooltip displays the correct file path. It might be that Windows 7 which recently applied updates to my computer (it a work computer so my IT dept is the owner of updates) is doing something odd due to firewalls or something. I am going to check into this on Monday.
    Cheers,

  • PDF opens with text & colors, no pictures..

    I downloaded a guide from FilePlanet which is in partnership with Adobe I deduced, because there is absolutely no other way to open any of their files except with Digital Editions, and their website tells you directly that this is the only program that will open their files. Once you download it, you cannot redownload it. This is for all strategy guides and other magazines they offer for downloads.
    I downloaded 2 guides and I already had Acrobat Reader 8, all up to date with Adobe Updater (since I use Photoshop all the time), and I installed DE, it opens the guides fine but there is just words, all the pictures of games and what not are not there, it's just words and layout colors and patterns. And I'm 90% positive even not all the words are there.
    Any ideas? p.s. I am running on a Windows machine.

    Most likely this is because FilePlanet is using one of the image formats that DE doesn't support (JBIG2 or JPEG2000 - see the answer to "Which PDF features are not supported by Digital Editions" in the

  • Xcelsius-Export to pdf-opens with default data

    HI All,
    We have Xcelsius dashboard pulling data from webi reports using Live Office connection.
    Data is coming from SAP BW so every time when I run the dashboard it asks for user/pw and based on that it shows me data.
    Till here everything is fine as expected. Now when I take the pdf export of this dashboards to distribute it among users it saves the data within pdf file. So when a user opens this pdf, it initially show him some set of data though he is not authorized to see that. Later it asks for user/pw based when which he can see data relevant to him.
    Am I missing something here. This is so because the requirement here is to export just the template of this dashboard without any data and let the users provide their credentials while opening the pdf so that they could see what they are authorized to see.
    Please suggest. Also let me know if you need more info.
    Thanks in advance !!
    -Chandra

    Thanks Matt for your response. Here in this dashboard we are using live office connection pointing to a webi report.
    Don't know if there is way to clear out data from excel in this case before taking export to pdf.
    And ,another thing  that I have noticed is that everytime i take export it first generates swf file and ask for user credentials and after that it export the same to a pdf.Pls let me know if I am missing some important properties here that could give me the desired result.

  • Why do some PDFs open with attachment panel showing on the left?

    I have 3 similar PDFs.  None of them have any attachments but two of them when opened show the open attachments panel on the left even though it's empty.   Using Acrobat X Mac.   Any help appreciated! thanks!

    For those documents where it's shown, what does it have for the following setting: File > Properties > Initial View > Layout and Magnification > Navigation tab
    "Attachments Panel and Page" perhaps?

  • HT204365 I opened a PDF in iBooks, but I don't know how to close it. Every time I open iBooks the PDF opens with no option to close. Any suggestions on how to get back to book shelf?

    I opened a PDF in iBooks, but now I can not close it. Every time I open iBooks, the PDF is opened and I can't close it. Any suggestions on how to close it and get back to the book shelf?

    Do you have an icon at the top of the page that says 'Library'? Tap that to get back. If not, just tap on the page that shows up and this should bring up the icons at the top for Library, another for the contents of the book, and the text size, search, and bookmark.

  • Today some words on the website are highlighted in blue yellow and pink - awful

    I am the administrator for a website and today it started highlighting certain words in pink, yellow and blue. I don't know why it is doing this. I did not change any setting on the website or Mozilla. How do I make the highlights go away?

    I discovered it was coming from the words in my latest google search bar. When I deleted all google search words from the bar, the colors disappeared. Google has never done this to me before and I still don't know why it happened - but at least I can make it go away.

  • Forms for pdf opening with sign

    I will need my clients to sign forms from my website http://www.sandiegoelitefitness.com . Can I use any version of adobe reader or does it always have to be the latest version to work or is better just to email forms. thanks j

    Not any version of Reader, but I think at least X or XI.
    Emailing documents always allows for the possibility that the attachments may get damaged or even lost during transmission.

  • How can I make my PDF open to "Fit One Full Page to Window" by default regardless of who is opening it?

    Hi, everyone. I am currently creating PDFs that have different page sizes (2 pages at 8.5" x 11" and other pages that range from 40"w x 80"h to 150"w x 150"h). I'm trying to package some artwork templates and artwork guidelines together for my clients to make it easier for them to access this information.
    The current issue I am running into is that I cannot figure out how to make these PDFs open with a default view of "Fit One Full Page to Window". I know how to set the default on my Acrobat Reader but I need it to default to this view when someone else opens it on their computer to view. (PDF currently opens the first page correctly but the rest of the pages are not previewing to fit page based on their page size. The only thing that reacts the way I want these documents to be viewed is the "Fit One Full Page In Window" option but I need to know how to default the PDF to view this way every time.)
    Any help is appreciated! I'm under a deadline so the sooner I can resolve this the better!
    Thanks in advance!
    Jenny

    There is an option for the Initial View that is "Magnification:" "Fit Page".  And this works for the initial page when the PDF is opened and it does not matter what the page size it, Acrobat/Reader will automatically fill the screen with the page. If you want the zoom type to change with each page then you need  add a page open script to each page to set the pages zoom type to "zoomtype.fitP"
    this.zoomType = zoomtype.fitP;
