PDF viewer can't open fillable pdf.

Hi,
I was working on a fillable pdf yesterday and it was fine. When I want to open it now, file will not open and I get a message that I need to upgrade to latest version, which I have done already. As a reference I am working with a Mac. Any idea what could the problem be? Thanks!!

Hi Jorge ,
What version of Acrobat are you using currently?
What exact OS it is?
I wonder it should be compatible with your updated Acrobat version .
Try Repairing your Acrobat once and see if that fixes the issue.
Launch Acrobat>Navigate to help>Check for Updates.

Can't open fillable pdf.

Some years ago, the company that produced business forms for me also made me a fillable pdf proposal form, which I fill out, print and send to client. Never was able to save info, but that was not an issue, it just looked neater and professional.
I'm transferring to new computer and this form gives me a me a "Cannot open embedded font" message and I can view only the basic layout, no text. After googling a bit, I tried several things to no avail. I've tried zipping the file, emailing to myself and a variety of ways to transfer to new computer...all give same result.
The folks that made it shrugged, but so far nothing helpful.
Anyone have a similar problem they've solved?

Do they still have the original files?
If so have them create a new PDF and fully embed all fonts.

Chrome Viewer can't open Protected PDF - Ask for a solution or a workaround

Hello,
we are working on the publishing of some Adobe Livecycle PDF protected documents on a website we are working on.
We noticed an anomaly in Chrome Browser (Saphari too). The browser can't recognize PDF protected Document, so clicking to the download of the pdf document, it use "Chrome Pdf Viewer"
and shows a message to user 'Unable to open document'.
Is there any system to force the browser to open the protected pdf with Adobe reader?
The solution about asking the User to disable Chrome Pdf Viewer and enable Adobe Reader is Excluded.
Thanks a lot,
V.

Preview can't open any pdf file

PDF documents are greyed out in the open menu.
Setting Preview as the "open this document with..." app in the get info window gives the message that "it's not known if this application can open Adobe PDF files"
At the same time, Safari started crashing on being asked to open a PDF file.
I've reinstalled Safari, grabbed Preview from a Time Machine backup from when it worked, reinstalled the developer tools in case they wrote over webkit, trashed all preferences and rebooted. No joy.
I looked at the document types list in Preview's info.plist and the entry for com.adobe.pdf is in there. I've opened an eps file in Preview and saved it as a pdf; I can then open that pdf in Acrobat, but not in Preview (even though it appears in the "recent documents" list.)
What am I missing?

Create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if the problem persists. If not, report back. If so, download and install the 10.6.3 COMBO update. If that doesn't fix the problem, reinstall SL, and if fixed, run Software Update until you're back to 10.6.3. If still no go, run this one-line Terminal command and restart:
*/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchS ervices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user*

How can I open a PDF in iBooks on iPhone 5s?

I have PDFs in iBooks. When I try to open them it says I should open them with Adobe Reader. I downloaded Adobe Reader but can't seem to get the PDFs to open with it.
I found a previous thread saying that you can't use Adobe Reader with iBooks, but that was before the 5s came out, so I'm starting a new thread. If you can't open a PDF from iBooks with Adobe Reader, why is it telling me to use Adobe Reader? And how else can I open it?
This shows what happens when I try to read my PDF, and click on the icon that's supposed to let me open it in Adober Reader:

This particular file is a PDF Portfolio, which needs Flash to display correctly. When you open a PDF Portfolio in the Adobe Reader mobile it will open in list view to get around the fact that Flash isn't supported on iOS. So, it won't open properly in a native viewer on iOS only within the Adobe Reader.

How can i open a PDF bank statement in numbers so that the rows and columns contain properly aligned data from statement?

how can i open a PDF bank statement in "numbers" so that the rows and columns contain properly aligned data from statement?

Numbers can store pdfs pages or clippings but does not directly open pdf files. To get the bank statement into Numbers as a table I would open the bank statment in Preview (or Skim) or some pdf viewer.
Then hold the option key while selecting a column of data.
Then copy
Then switch to numbers and paste the column into a table
Then repeat for the other columns in the pdf document
It would be easier (in my opinion) to download the QFX or CSV version from your bank

I can't open a pdf file since updating to firefox 4.0. I have foxit reader installed and it worked before. Adobe is not compatible with Firefox. What do I need to do. I need to file my income tax online and can't because of this issue

Just can't open any pdf files. Having no luck trying to fix myself.

For Firefox users, there might be a built in pdf viewer, or a preferred viewer that handles pdf files.
I am not having any trouble logging in, so lets try this:
* Remove any cookies from the cache: [[Delete cookies to remove the information websites have stored on your computer]]
*[[Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings]] if there is stored user data that is removed in this process: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]

Can't open old PDF's

We recently got new updated computers but we kept some of our old files. I downloaded the adobe reader x and everything, I still can't open old PDF's (saved and unsaved ones like from my email). Something with Microsoft Word comes up, and all funny writing and numbers and such! The only way I can view an old PDF's is I save them again, go to the Adobe Reader X icon on my desktop, and open the file(s) from there. It's quite a hassle because sometimes I don't want to save something, or have more than one PDF open! Help please. (I'm pretty much computer "stupid", so it might be just something small!)
If you have any ideas for me, feel free to reply below or email me at [email address deleted by host]
Thank you so much (:

Moved to Adobe Reader

I can't open a pdf file.

My computer was working fine until about 2-3 weeks ago. Suddenly I could no longer open a PDF file. I had Adobe Reader installed and all was good. I asked our IT guy and he suggested downloading Adobe Reader again. I did this and still get the error message. Then I had a friend to tell me to uninstall and reinstall. That did not work either. The error message looks like this:
Fill conversion - document name.pdf
Select the encoding that makes your document readable.
Text coding (then 3 options)
Windows (default) MS-DOS Other encoding
Then there is a pop-up window within the error message with all kinds of options.
Help!
Thank you!

Good afternoon Pat,

I loaded adobe reader and I can not open a pdf file. It keeps telling me I need adobe acrobat.

I loaded adobe reader and I can not open a pdf file. It keeps telling me I need adobe acrobat.

What is your operating system?
You don't need Acrobat to view PDF files; can you post a screenshot of that message?
Also, is this a local or online PDF? If online, in what browser?

I can't open any pdf documents with Adobe Reader XI...get an error that "Adobe has stopped working" then it closes. Any suggestions?

I can't open any pdf documents with Adobe Reader XI...get an error that "Adobe has stopped working" then it closes. Is this an Adobe issue, Microsoft issue, or security issue?

Thank you! That seemed to do the trick. Don't think I'd ever have figured that one out!!

How can i open a pdf in safari without the screen turning black?

How can I open a PDF in Safari without the screen turning black?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're all users here.
Depending upon your version of OS X and your version of Safari, as detailed in the Adobe help document links below, Adobe pdf documents created with the latest releases may require an (updated free) Adobe plug-in for Safari, or (free) Adobe Reader in order to display properly.

I have download a Ebook in pdf file format with DRM at adobe lifecycle rights management.
The Reader XI can this open and work with them.
The ADE Suite can´t read this file and say some errors found on the dokument.
The adobe reader on the device (ebookreader Pocketbook 840 with newest softwareversion) do not open this file and without messages give up.
The Pocketbook Support tell to me contact adobe support.
My problem i don´t have information of the adobe softwar on the pocketbook. Only by cummunity some
The ADE 4.x and 3.x tested without solution.
Support files or dumps from device not available.
Why the ADE not support "adobe" lifecycle rights management.
And can i close this gap?
I`m only the consumer on pocketbook and onliehe.de

At producer from the device not fully unterstand the problem-
ADE can´t read the File and tell back its corrupt.
The device (Pocketbook 840) with Adobe Viewer stoped open file without message.
Pocketbook Support say download only products with support. PDF with DRM it´s ok, but not Adobe Lifecycle.
Thats can´t be the right way to sell products without support of own fail.and say buy other E-Books.
At wait on 11 days to see at this support instrument are only help for lightweight problems. I see to much questions without message from moderator, the consumer can´t do adobe work.
