Problem with Acrobat Reader

I have Windows 7, after downloading Acrobat Reader for Windows 7 (I deactivated the Firewall first) the Programme starts, however does not open any file and does not react to any Input. When I run a compatibility test, I get the message: Incompatible Programme.
Can anybody provide a solution to this Problem ?

You write "the Programme starts"; is this the installer, or Adobe Reader itself?

Problem with Acrobat Reader Browser Control (LoadFile)

Hi
I am trying to use the Acrobat Reader Browser ActiveX Control to show a PDF file in a window from my application but I am finding a problem. It all works fine, unless I have the exact same PDF file open in Acrobat Reader at the same time. If I have the exact same PDF file open, the Browser Control appears to completely fail when I tell it to LoadFile. No errors are raised, but the control simply appears as a white rectangle with no controls at all. In fact, it is the same appearance that it has if you don't call LoadFile at all.
I have Reader 9.3.4, I am using VB6, I have drawn an instance of the control at design time. I am only calling LoadFile, like this
Private Sub Form_Load()
AcroPDF1.LoadFile "c:\mypdf.pdf"
End Sub
I have read the OLE parts of the interapplication developer guide and the interapplication communication api reference and I can't see that I am doing anything wrong.
Can anyone help? Is this perhaps a known problem in Reader?
Thanks in advance
Mark

Hi everyone,
I have found a workaround, inspired by another post about LoadFile problems. Rather than LoadFile I am now using the "src" property of the control. This works even when the PDF file is open in Acrobat Reader. My code is now
Private Sub Form_Load()
AcroPDF1.src = "c:\mypdf.pdf"
End Sub
I don't understand why this should work, but it does.
Thanks
Mark

Strrange problem with Acrobat Reader 9 and power loss

Hello,
I have a Lenovo T61P (6457-A26) with Windows XP, and I have found a very strange behaviour with Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.
Sometimes I open a PDF, and I read one or two pages, and then my laptop has a problem like a power loss (remove of the batter).
I can read those PDF on other PC/MAC/Linux, ... no problem at all.
So I'm thinking about an incompatibility with my laptop and Acrobat Reader...
So for now, I've installed another PDF viewer (FoxIt), and I can open my PDF without fearing this lost of power...
Did somebody experienced something like that? If yes, are there some solutions?
Alessandro

1. It happens with any file i want to open in browser.
2. The Problem is specific to browser. When I open a document in the Reader application everithing works fine.
kind regards
Marcel

Fax and scan problem with Acrobat Reader DC

Hi Pascal,
In case is you have not created the back for them before installing Adobe Acrobat Reader DC you won't be able to get them back.

Problems with Acrobat Reader

I am not able to fully open all pdf docs despite downloading Adobe Reader X (10.1.4)..Some docs open - others dont, or open with parts missing such as maps being blank..

Ok, I have not been clear enough, thanks for your patience.
I can open AA6 but when I try to open a document I get a message stating, “ Adobe Acrobat has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.” There is a link I can select to view more information. The error signature reads
Error signature
AppName: acrobat.exe AppVer: 6.0.5.399 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00060000
I then can select to view the error report. I cannot seem to highlight to copy and paste the error report which is a pretty long document.
Hope this helps
Thank you very much!

Safari problem with acrobat reader

When I click on pdf files to view them in Safari the page shows up in black. What can I do to get the page to pop up?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (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, remove 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.
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.

Collation problem in Acrobat Reader X

I have a collation problem with Acrobat Reader X and HP LaserJet M2727 nf (using HP Universal Printing PCL 6 driver)
When printing multiple copies of a PDF, the result is always in the order 1,2,3 1,2,3 etc. (for a 3 page document for example)
This is the case even when I uncheck the default collate option.
How can I disable the collation option in this version?
Thanks,
Eran

HELP! This is a killer problem. Everyone is banking on PDF documents and Adobe Reader. YOU CAN NOT IGNORE THIS ANY MORE!
There was a registry setting in Reader 8 to force host collation.. it doesn't work any more. Please respond immediately !!!!

Performance Issues with Acrobat Reader 11.0.0.2 when secure mode is enabled

Hello All,
We are experiencing sporadic issues with Acrobat 11.0.0.2 across our domain, users are reporting performance issues when opening PDF documents whether locally or from a network share.
We have found that turning off Secure Mode helps towards reducing this delay and in the cases it doesn't we are repairing the installation and/or reinstalling the application.
Due to the security implications we need to leave this turned on, I am wondering if anyone has encountered this issue and what steps were taken towards resolving it?
I also wonder whether the white list function in the new release 11.0.0.3 would be a solution to this issue?
Kind Regards,
Ryan McCarty

No probelm, so....
We had no problems with Adobe Reader 9 and 10, we encountered the issues when upgrading to 11.0.0.2.
Initially we found that turning off the Protected Mode, helped but did not resolve the issue.
We tried;
1. Turn off protected mode - issue still present
2. Clearing the recent file registry using the below registry path and deleting the keys underneath it.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\AVGeneral\cRecentFiles (this does not turn recent files off permanently). - works but needs clearing regularly
3. Turning off welcome screen by creating - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\FeatureLockDown\cWelcomeScreen - works to improve app open speed.
4. uninstall/reinstall of 11.0.0.2 - works most likley due to the recent files being cleared.
5. upgrade to 11.0.0.3 - issue still present
Following reboots the issue is still present.
When Adobe Reader is the only application open this issue is still present.
As mentioned I have no systems available which I could test this issue using 11.0.0.1 as we have fixed them, albeit temporarily using the reinstall method.
I am concious that this issue is going to reoccur once that cache (recent files) builds back up because the fix above (#2) is clearing the recent files cache NOT disabling it.

Adobe X PDF files converted to jpg, edited and converted back to PDF have ragged, unclear text. I didn't have this problem with Acrobat 9 standard. What is the remedy for this. If this is the best I can expect, I won't be able to use X standard.

I can't imagine any worse workflow than converting to JPEG to edit text, then back to PDF. Text in a PDF is a vector thing, smooth at all resolutions. And JPEG is made for photos. EVERY conversion to JPEG and back loses quality but how much loss there is will vary.
If you must go to an image format, try PNG.

Color saturation problem in Acrobat Reader 7.0.9 under Linux

Hi,
I'm working with a guy who is producing PDFs of my work with Indesign.
Using acrobat reader under Linux (version 7.0.1 and also 7.0.9), the colours in these PDFs always appear very saturated. This is a big problem for me because I cannot see with the reference viewer the results of PDFs to be sent to print.
I tried the same pdf file under OS X & Windows, it appears OK with Acrobat reader. Other free pdf readers under Linux also show the right colours (but not always the transparency ;-).
Does anybody has an idea to help me?
@Adobe people: in case you want to test, I drop a copy of my PDF file at: http://cardot.net/files/pdfcolours.pdf (2.24 MB)
Thanks in advance
Jean-Christophe Cardot

We are able to reproduce color saturation problem at our end. We have noted down and will work on this.
Thanks.

Problem with Acrobat 11 keeps asking to accept EULA

I cannot use Reader because it keeps on asking to accept EULA; Mac OS 10.9, Reader 11 , when downloading it says " by clicking on Install you automatically accept EULA " : I've installed and uninstalled it many times, when I launch it it does not allow me to accept any EULA I'm getting desperate please help

I meant that there isn’t any box where I can accept the terms etc. - when I ‘ve downloaded it said “ by clicking on Install you agree to accept the terms and conditions “
Anyway now I’ve cancelled some plug-ins from the library and it seems it works
If you have a better suggestion kindly let me know
Thank you for your prompt reply

Win7 Pdf print with acrobat reader

I have a problem with the printer's list,
if install a printer... it does appear in the list.
if i change or remove a printer it disappear...
The problem is verified with acrobat 10 and 11, with the version 9 the printer's list is blank.
With acrobat reader 9 i can't print because "no printer is installed"...

Make sure you update to the lastest available version of Acrobat/Reader (these are two different things, by the way)... Only versions 9.2 or higher are compatible with Windows 7.

Right clicking PDF files and printing those with Acrobat Reader X

We have a Windows XP computer with Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional and Acorbat Reader X.
Now when we open PDF files they open with Acrobat Reader X wich is fine.
But when we try selecting PDF files and right click Print them they print with Acrobat 7 Professional.
The problem is with Adobe Acrobat Professional 7 it doesn't print all the files we selected.
We select 50 files and only about 10 are printed and those are always random.
So is there anyway to enable the print option to print with Acrobat Reader X ?

This is not a desirable situation. Adobe recommends against having Reader and Acrobat on the same machine, unless they're both version X, exactly because it can cause this kind of conflicts.
