PDF Portfolio combatibility with apple and accessibility

Our office thought PDF portfolios were the way to go for our large manuals that we want available online for readers to view and print. We are running into many problems, however.
1. Are PDF portfolios truly accessible to screen readers? I set the preference to open in files mode; however, when I publish the PDF portfolio to our web, a coworker opened it into preview mode.
2. Are PDF portfolios compatible with apple products? Another coworker opened the portfolio off our web, and it only showed the first PDF in the portfolio. There were no options to see others or search or anything.
I've been trying to research online, but I am getting nowhere. Basically what I've found was that the user needs to have Adobe Reader installed (on their iPad, Mac, iPhone, etc.) in order to view. It says to save the setting to open all portfolios in files mode, but that does not seem to carry with the portfolio - just the user's computer who changed the setting.
Extremely frustrated forms/records manager

That's a complete PITA, then. Our local government, for example, commonly
puts up PDF portfolios on their web site which consist of scans of
multiple written responses to planning submissions bundled together into a
PDF portfolio. Without the thumbnails of each contained PDF in the
portfolio, it is impossible read anything other than the first PDF in the
portfolio. Have a look for example, at
http://www.actpla.act.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0014/22343/DV307_Submissions_1-20_1.37 MB.pdf.
All submissions in this portfolio can be accessed without any problem
using Reader 9.4.3 for Windows, but with Reader 9.4.3 for Linux, only the
first submission in the document can be accessed.
There is no AR9.4.3 for Linux: do you mean AR9.4.2?
Anyhow my recommendation under Linux would be to stick with AR9.3.4.
I've just checked at my end and it has no problem with your
sample portfolio.

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • PDF Portfolio bug with acroread 9.4.2 Linux update

    Since updating adobe reader on Linux to 9.4.2, when I open a PDF portfolio created with Acrobat for Windows 9.4.2, the initial page is completely blank. It should show a thumbnail of the first page of each file in the portfolio, and this initial page still displays correctly when the portfolio is opened in the 9.4.2 Reader for Windows. I have two separate Linux machines, one running Ubuntu x84 and the other running Ubuntu amd64, and they both have the problem.
    Versions prior to 9.4.2 did not have this problem.
    A small PDF portfolio that shows the problem is at http://www.users.on.net/~njpayne/bikestuff/SmokersGap.pdf. Initial page displays fine on Windows, doesn't on Linux.

  • I have a Apple imax only about 9 months old. I need a new printer. I am looking at a Canon MX926 PIXMA. Do I have Airprint or do I need to purchase it? I am a novice with Apple and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    I have a Apple imax only about 9 months old. I need a new printer. I am looking at a Canon MX926 PIXMA. Do I have Airprint or do I need to purchase it? I am a novice with Apple and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If your iMac is only 9 months old, it probably comes with OS X Mountain Lion, and it includes AirPrint, so you do not need to purchase anything else apart from the printer (which is compatible with AirPrint).
    Once you have purchased the printer, you need to follow the steps of the manufacturer. To add the printer to OS X, see > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4670

  • I keep getting notified I have an update available but when I try to update I get the following msg ,"You have updates available for other accounts". I only have one account with apple and purchased the software when I got my macbook in Aug 2012.

    I keep getting notified I have an update available but when I try to update I get the following msg ,"You have updates available for other accounts To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.". I only have one account with apple and the software was preinstalled when I purchased my macbook in Aug 2012 with that account. Has anyone had this problem or know how to find out what account apple needs?

    You log into the App store using the same Apple ID you used to set the computer up, verify that none of your apps are hidden and that they have all be accepted and then download and install the update
    for help contact the App store support - link is on the right ot the App store window

  • HT1933 My ex-boyfriend stole my email address and credit card information to make purchases with Apple and now my Apple ID account has a balance. Is there any way I can retract the purchases so I don't have to pay for his theft of my information?

    My ex-boyfriend stole my email address and credit card information to make purchases with Apple and now my Apple ID has a balance. Is there any way I can retract the purchases so I don't have to pay for his theft? I had no idea he had done this until I tried to sign in to the ITunes store and found all his information and a whole bunch of song purchases. I had to go to my email and reset everything. I only have a 2.10 balance due to him, but I just want to find out if there is a way to erase it because of this circumstance.

    You need to immediately pull credit reports to see what else he has done.  Then "freeze" the credit report at all three agencies.  That way even you need to lift the freeze to add credit cards or other credit items to your SSN.

  • Windows 7 on Bootcamp I am locked into a DOS screen and it is not installing.  I have been on line with Apple and microsoft and they can't help.  I have lated versions of Lion and bootcamp. HELP

    I ran bootcamp and tried to install Windows 7.  I end up with a DOS screen and an unresponsive keyboard. 
    I have been on line with Apple and microsoft and they can't help.  I have lated versions of Lion and bootcamp. HELP!
    My Lion is up to date.
    I used the 64-bit windows disc.
    Should I try parallels?

    Do you have a DOS screen with a command prompt or just a blank screen?
    Is your Windows 7 x64 an original MS Full Version Installation DVD?
    Did Windows 7 Install Disc start?
    If it did you would have had to choose the location of where to install Windows 7.
    Did you select the Partition named BOOTCAMP that corresponded to the Partition Size you created in BootCamp?
    Were you asked to format the Partition?
    Did you format the partition to NTFS and then get an option to click NEXT and actually start the Windows 7 installation?
    Do you have a wired USB keyboard and wired USB mouse?
    If you actual went through the installation and restarted then here are some things to try:
    First try doing a CONTROL-ALT-DELETE and see if a Windows Option Screen appears.
    If you get the Screen you will have some options displayed.
    You want to highlight and click TASK MANAGER which should be the bottom choice I beleive.
    If Task Manager runs you will get a window showing all the processes running.
    See if you can find EXPLORER.
    If EXPLORER is running highlight it and go to the bottom right and click the END TASK button.
    Now go to the Top Left Menu Bar.
    Click FILE
    In the sub menu that opens select RUN  or RUN NEW TASK (Not sure which it is in Windoes 7 as I am running Windows 8)
    Once RUN is selected a new window will open to CREATE NEW TASK
    Type in EXPLORER and then the OK button.
    If Windows 7 installed properly the Desktop should appear after a bit of time.
    Your first concern is to get your keyboard running so you may have to remove and reinstall Windows using Boot Camp on the Mac Side.
    Let us know how it goes..

  • How can I resize a pdf page content with annotations and highlights in Acrobat Pro?

    How can I resize a pdf page content with annotations and highlights in Acrobat Pro while maintaining page size and annotation/highlight interactivity? I've tried to use the crop tool in Acrobat Pro (9) and the page does resize, but the highlights and annotations go all over the place. I specifically need to scale the page content smaller (83%) but maintain page size and annotation/highlight to content connection and interactivity.

    An old trick (not recommended) would be to print to a new PDF with the page size selected but a scaling of the content. Only print the document, not the markup, to a new PDF. Close that PDF when done and reopen the old one (or maybe a copy of the old one for safety) and use Document Replace pages and select the new document to replace your current pages. You will then have to go back through the markup to locate it all correctly. There may be a more elegant way, but this may be the fastest.

    Its not Dreamweaver, or Access, its your servers locale, its
    set to US
    format, not the UK.
    On your page at the top use:
    <% Session.LCID = 2057 %>
    This will force the page into using UK formatted dates. Use
    it on any
    page that needs to format the page correctly.

    You can still deauthorize an individual computer from the iTunes Menus.

  • I am looking to create an app that add widgets to iphone, is it ok with apple and what shall I do?

    I am looking to create an app that add widgets to iphone, is it ok with apple and what shall I do?

    In iOS, those would have to be standalone apps due to the sandboxed design of iOS and its use of memory and resources.  There is already an abundance of clock, weather and calendar apps in the app store.  You can certainly make some of your own, but just realize yours would have to offer something really different or unique to stand out in the crowd of similar apps.

  • What's with apple and updates?

    What's with Apple and the latest updates?  They are really messed up!  with ios 8.02 and 8.10 updating via itunes, (itunes 12.0.1.26) has screwed my iphone.  The update fails.  The restore won't go since it wants a password, which on a defaulted iphone, *there is none*.  Now I'm stuck with out being able to restore my iphone and it's at factory default for mail and such.  Screwed!  What's the point of backing up your iphone if you can't restore it?  Apple?  ****!

    Because that is the most recent version of Opera that the developers have issued to the Mac App Store.
