PDF problems in Internet Explorer 11

We are testing upgrading to Internet Explorer 11 in my organization and we are encountering a problem with the Adobe PDF Plug-in. It doesn't work without disabling the plug-on and then enabling it. It will work after the disable/enable until users log off and back on. Is this a problem with the plug-in or Internet Explorer 11? Here is what I have done try and correct the issue:
Repaired Adobe Reader
Uninstall/Reinstall Adobe Reader
Remove IE 11
Reinstall IE 11
Remove Adobe Reader
Remove IE 11
Install IE 11
Install Adobe Reader
Here are the current settings in Internet Explorer, Adobe Reader and Adobe PDF Plug-in:
OS: Window 7 Enterprise 32bit
Browser: Internet Explorer 11
Adobe PDF Plug-in: 11.0.10.32
Internet Explorer setting changes: Problem sites have been added to Trusted Sites list.
ActiveX Control settings in IE 11
Adobe Reader Enhanced Security Settings: Enable Protected Mode at startup: ON; Protected view: OFF; Enable Enhanced Security: ON; Automatically trust sites in my Win OS security zones: ON
Adobe PDF plug-in Setting:

Can you post a screenshot of that Print panel: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933
It is possible that some system fonts (e.g. Segoe) are missing or corrupted.
Regarding IE freezing: try to disable Protected Mode in Adobe Reader [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

    Hi efacg,
    Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.

  • Unable to open pdf files using Internet Explorer and Adobe 9.1

    We are unable to open any/all pdf files in Internet Explorer 6 or 7 using Adobe Reader 9.1 on Windows XP SP2.
    The error message is that IE has a problem and sorry for the inconvenience.
    Clicking "OK" closes IE.
    We did not have any issue with Adobe Reader 8.1.
    What we did to date:
    1. Uninstall Adobe Reader 9.1
    2. Run Windows Clean Utility to remove any remnant of Adobe Reader 8
    3. Re-install Adobe Reader 9.1
    Any other suggestions?
    Need to have this upgrade.

    I'm having a similar issue. Prior to upgrading to Acrobat 9.1 I was able to view PDFs from IE 6. No longer. Instead I get a message: "Error opening document. File cannot be found."
    Help?

  • I cannot open any PDF's in Internet Explorer

    Starting just a few days ago, I can no longer open PDF files in Internet Explorer (IE 9). I'm not sure, but this could have started when I upgraded from Reader X 10.1.5 to 10.1.6.
    I can open PDF's fine in Firefox 19.0, just not Internet Explorer. I have tried numerous suggestions that I found in this forum and elsewhere:
    Turned off popup blocker.
    Changed the Internet option in Adobe Reader's preferences to both open PDF's in the browser and not to open the PDF in the browser. Neither option works.
    Tried running Internet Explorer in Compatiilty View for the websites where I am trying to view the PDF files.
    There was a suggestion to clear the Internet Explorer cache. I could not find that option (cache) under the Setting for IE. The closest thing I found was Temporary Internet Files, so I deleted them.
    I uninstalled Adobe Reader and installed an earlier version (10.1.4).
    I made sure that the plugin/extention 'Adobe PDF Helper' was enabled.
    None of the above has helped. I'm just about out of ideas. The fact that I can still open PDF's using Firefox makes this less than an emergency, but I would really like to get this resolved.
    I had some trouble searching this forum (Adobe Reader) thoroughly, so if there is another post out there that has some solutions (other than the 6 items I already tried) please fell free to post a link to it.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I just thought I would add some information (albeit vague) on how I solved this problem. I had another computer (laptop) that was not experiencing this problem. I compared the IE settings on the laptop with the IE settings on my desktop and changed all the settings on the desktop to match the laptop. I then restarted IE on my desktop and was able to open PDF files! Since it was working for me, I didn't go back and try to figure out which of the changed settings led to the solution to the problem. If enough people on the forum request it, I will try to go back and isolate the pertinent settings.

  • Acrobat PDF reader for Internet Explorer may be unloading/unabling custom plugin

    Hi,
    My question is basically to understand what is happening in this situation so that I can find where is the problem and how to solve it.
    We have used Acrobat 6.0 SDK to develop our custom plugin. This plugin is basically wrapper to few basic tools  (note, stamp, text ) etc.. provided by Acrobat 6.0 SDK. We have also developed PDFViewer.dll to view PDF document within Internet Explorer. So when user load document within our website this PDFViewer loaded with the custom plugin and user can use those tools.
    We are installing this plugin under <Acrobat X>/Plug_ins/<Company Name>/MyPlugin.API.
    In our web site we are giving list of documents and when user click on a document it will load the PDFViewer and custom plugin. We are loading Acrobat.exe in advance so that we can load quickly.  Now the problem happens when user open any other PDF in different tab or instance of Internet explorer. ?How?
    Consider in a internet explorer user logged in our web site and then he/she can see let's say 10 documents. 1.pdf, 2.pdf, 3.pdf, etc...
    Now when user select document 1.pdf we are loading that PDF in the IE within our PDFViewer with custom plugin. (Here I have seen that behind the scene Acrobat.exe is loaded in the processed using task manager)/  If at this time if user opens another instance of Internet explorer or another tab and open a PDF document it opens PDF in the standard Adobe Reader PDF viewer for Internet Explorer resides at (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX).
    If at this time user goes back to our site and tried to work on 1.pdf our custom plugin works fine BUT if user opens any other document (let's say 2.pdf) the plug in stops working basically looks like it is not loaded.
    This issue only happens if user opens a document in another internet tab or explorer instance and open PDF which resulted in to open Acrobat Activex for internet explorer. If user opens a PDF document out side of internet explorer it is not creating any problem because at that time ActiveX does not loaded.
    So my guess is something is going on when ActiveX for PDF is get loaded into Internet Explorer.
    I want to know more what is happening and why it is happening. Due to this behavior our web site users can't use any other web site which opens PDF documents because then they have to log off and log back in our web site.
    Please we need immediate help.
    I am open to provide more details with screen captures.
    Thanks,
    Twinkle

    Hi,
    Thanks.
    So I want to make sure this is because with Acrobat 9 - the new way to deal with PDF's?  Because as per my knowledge it was working fine with Acrobat 8.
    Moreover, if I am understanding correctly and I have tested too, the order is important here, right? If I will load PDF in IE first and then I will work on my web site it is not creating problem but if I will launch my web site first and then open PDF within IE in different tab it is creating problem because they are using same interface and when AcroPDF instantiating overriding and failed to load plug_in
    Here I have seen that both Acrobat.exe and AcroPDF.dll is using same Acrobat.dll pointing to same memory addresses and that's why problem is happening.
    IT would be great if you can provide any other way to "hook" adobe because the bottom line I have to use AcroExch.App from SDK.
    One last question, I have seen that if I am opening a PDF in Internet Explorer in a different tab (not in my web app) while pressing SHIFT key and the move to my web site and load different document it is working fine, so the question is what different is happening when we open PDF in IE with pressing SHIFT key and without pressing SHIFT key. IS AcroPDF.dll behaves differently while opening PDF with SHIFT key pressed?
    Thanks for all your help.

    Thanks for the response.
    I have written some function in PluginInit. I don't want to call the method when acrobat launches in IE. It should call only when acrobat launches in Desktop.
    How can I call the method only when it launches on desktop.
    Please help me to solve the issue.

  • Unable to open PDF files in Internet Explorer

    Hello,
    One of our users has a problem with opening PDF files in Internet Explorer.
    Translation:
    Adobe PDF-document
    There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Close Adobe Acrobat/Read and try again.
    The user is using Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard in combination with Windows XP and Internet Explorer 6. I reinstalled Adobe Acrobat (under an administrator account), deleted the local user profile and the problem is still there.
    Does anyone have an idea about this? The error message doesn't really say what is wrong. Adobe Reader is not installed.

    What exactly means "unable"?  Do you see a little x in a box on the top left of IE11?  If so, this may be the solution: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2716529

  • Java Applet Background Color Problem on Internet Explorer

    Hi,
    Please check out the following URL:
    http://www.utopiainteractive.com/clients/AkonFinal/glossary.htm
    The menu bar is writting in Java Applet. If you scroll down the page, and scroll back up, I see white background as I scroll back up. It happens only on Internet explorer. Neither Java Applet nor HTML Body bg color is white. I am kinda lost, and any help would really be appreciated.
    Thank you and look forward to hearing from someone soon.
    Sachin

    Hi,
    Well I used HtmlConver utility to generate applet html code, so I assume nothing is wrong with Object tag. Do you know what could cause this problem on Internet explorer? To be honest, I spent last couple of days, but I am just lost. It absolutely works fine on Netscape.
    Thanks,

  • Why can't I download a pdf file using internet explorer as my browser.I can download pdfs using fire

    Why can't I download a pdf file using internet explorer as my browser. I can download pdfs using firefox.

    Gilad D,
    Thanks for the support.
    I would guess the plugin is enabled since when I use Foxfire as my browser, all pdfs download and are readable. (just doesn’t happen when I use IE as my browser, I get a blank screen with a small “x” in the upper left corner)
    I will try your proposed solution.

  • How to install Adobe PDF toolbar in Internet Explorer

    How do I install an Adobe PDF toolbar in Internet Explorer?

    If you install Acrobat 10 then it will automatically configure the PDFMaker toolbar in I.E. You can try repairing the software.
    Open Acrobat -> Go to Help menu -> Repair Acrobat Installation.
    Solution #2
    Select "Enable third-party browser extensions" in Internet Explorer Properties.
    1. Start Internet Explorer.
    2. Select Tools > Internet Options and click the Advanced tab.
    3. Select "Enable third-party browser extensions (requires restart)" and click OK.
    4. Close all Internet Explorer windows.
    5. Restart Internet Explorer.
    If still doesn't work then let me know what the version of I.E and Acrobat you are using.

  • Printer print size is very small. Do not have this problem with Internet explorer.

    When I try to print something in Firefox, the printer print size is extremely small. I do not have this problem with Internet Explorer.

    File > Page Setup - '''Scale''' <br />
    100% or Shrink to Fit is usually best.

  • Why are my PDF files so big when I open them or when I print them out? I only see and print half of the document, didn't have any problem on internet explorer

    I was trying to print something from the internet and when I did what came out was half of the document. What should have been printed in 1 sheet of paper was printed in 2 and it was only half of the document because the letters and images were too large.
    I noticed that when I saved the document from the Internet to my folder the document was in half. I tried to save it again but it didn't work. I tried to fix the printer to see if that was the reason but still I continued to see only half of the document. I tried printing again but still the same thing happened.
    I thought it was a problem with my printer but then I remembered that the same thing happened with other PDFs files. I then tried the same thing on Internet Explorer and when I saved the document I saved the whole document not only half of it and the letters and images where not large like when I used Mozilla. I was also able to print the whole document in 1 sheet of paper.
    I don't how to solve this problem, thank you for your help and attention
