Problem with PDF Reader and Create PDF plugins

Hello,
I use Internet Explorer Nine. The Adobe PDF Reader plugin disappeared from my browser. When I look at the listing of my add-ons, Adobe PDF reader appears in the list of all add-ons but not in the list of currently loaded add-ons. I have tried reinstalling Adobe Reader X and adding the FileOpen.api file to the plug-ins subfolder of the reader folder of the Reader 10.0 program files folder to no avail. How did the plugin disappear from by browser? How can I reinstall the plugin? Would reinstalling Adobe Acrobat Standard XI help?
I was once able, on every website, to turn in a portion of the text and/or pictures on the website into a PDF file by right-clicking and clicking on "Convert to Adobe PDF." Now, I can perform this action only on certain websites. When I cannot perform the action correctly, the entire webpage is converted into a PDF file. What could be causing the malfunction? How can I fix it?
Thank your for your help. Have an excellent day.

I&m not quite sure I understand your problem. You have Adobe PDF Reader under All Add-ons; is it enabled?
Can you view any PDFs in Internet Explorer?

Hi there, I currently subscribe to Adobe Pro Subscription (yearly) and I also subscribe to Adobe PDF pack (monthly). I only require Adobe to read and create PDF documents such as converting word/excel document or a web based document. Can someone tell me if I'm doubling up as I'm not sure of the differences between the products and would like to save a few dollars.

Acrobat Pro can do a lot more than the PDF Pack online service.
Try if you can do everything you need with PDF Pack; otherwise keep Acrobat Pro.

Problem with Adobe Reader and IE

I'm using Vista Home Premium and IE9 with the latest Reader available. Starting yesterday, I cannot read PDF files on the web. This is a new problem. I tried to download newer versions of IE and the Reader, but both tell me I've got the newest versions I can use.
I have no problem with Firefox. Just IE. I prefer using IE. Can someone guide me -- without using technical language. Many thanks!!

Thanks for your input. I opened the standalone Adobe Reader X, clicked Edit, Preferences, Security, Advanced Preferences. Then clicked each of the 3 tabs on top, but nothing looked like "Protected Mode."
Then I went back and clicked Security (Enhanced) and unchecked Enable Enhanced Security. Tested this change, but I still get the gray screen and messages: "A problem has caused IE to close." "A problem with this website has caused IE to close and re-open the tab." I then went back and re-checked Enable Enhanced Security.
I should mention that I have used this particular website for about 10 years and never had a problem. But I now have the same problem with any online PDF that I try to open using IE.
Can you think of anything else? If not, here's my plan of attack. Please let me know if you think it will work.
1) Copy over all my favorite sites from IE to Firefox. (I've already started doing that.)
2) Uninstall IE and re-install it.
3) If I still have a problem, uninstall Adobe Reader and re-install it.
Do you think this will do the job if all else fails?
Many, many thanks for the time you have put into this.

Problem with ImageIO.read and ImageReader JPG colors are distorted/wrong

(Using JDK 1.5)
ImageIO incorrectly reads some jpg images.
I have a jpg image that, when read by the ImageIO api, all the colors become reddish.
        try
            java.awt.image.BufferedImage bi = javax.imageio.ImageIO.read( new java.io.File("javabug.jpg") );
            javax.imageio.ImageIO.write( bi, "jpg", new java.io.File("badcolors.jpg") );
            javax.imageio.ImageIO.write( bi, "png", new java.io.File("badcolors.png") );
        catch ( java.io.IOException ioe )
            ioe.printStackTrace();
        }Why is this happening??? My guess is there is a problem with the ImageIO.read ?
the jpg can be downloaded at http://www.alwaysvip.com/javabug.jpg
<BufferedImage@11faace: type = 5 ColorModel: #pixelBits = 24 numComponents = 3 color space = java.awt.color.ICC_ColorSpace@1ebbfde transparency = 1 has alpha = false isAlphaPre = false ByteInterleavedRaster: width = 1691 height = 1269 #numDataElements 3 dataOff[0] = 2>
I have even tried creating a new buffered image but still have the same problem:
(suggested by http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=20&threadID=665585) "Java Forums - ImageIO: scaling and then saving to JPEG yields wrong colors"
        try
            java.awt.image.BufferedImage bi = javax.imageio.ImageIO.read( new java.io.File("javabug.jpg") );
            java.awt.image.BufferedImage out = new java.awt.image.BufferedImage( bi.getWidth(), bi.getHeight(), java.awt.image.BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB );
            java.awt.Graphics2D g = out.createGraphics();
            g.drawRenderedImage(bi, null);
            g.dispose();
            javax.imageio.ImageIO.write( out, "jpg", new java.io.File("badcolors.jpg") );
        catch ( java.io.IOException ioe )
            ioe.printStackTrace();
        }I have used the following which works but does not use the ImageIO api. However, I tried using the ImageIO to write and it worked for writing which leads me to believe there is a problem with the reader.
(suggested by http://developers.sun.com/solaris/tech_topics/java/articles/awt.html "Server-Side AWT")
        try
            java.awt.Image image = new javax.swing.ImageIcon(java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("javabug.jpg")).getImage();
            java.awt.image.BufferedImage bufferedImage = new java.awt.image.BufferedImage( image.getWidth( null ), image.getHeight( null ), java.awt.image.BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB );
            java.awt.Graphics g = bufferedImage.createGraphics();
            g.setColor( java.awt.Color.white );
            g.fillRect( 0, 0, image.getWidth( null ), image.getHeight( null ) );
            g.drawImage( image, 0, 0, null );
            g.dispose();
            com.sun.image.codec.jpeg.JPEGImageEncoder encoder = com.sun.image.codec.jpeg.JPEGCodec.createJPEGEncoder( new java.io.FileOutputStream( "goodcolors.jpg" ) );
            encoder.encode( bufferedImage );
            javax.imageio.ImageIO.write( bufferedImage, "jpg", new java.io.File("goodiocolors.jpg") );
            javax.imageio.ImageIO.write( bufferedImage, "png", new java.io.File("goodiocolors.png") );
        catch ( java.io.IOException ioe )
            ioe.printStackTrace();
        }BTW, the following does not work either:
            java.util.Iterator readers = javax.imageio.ImageIO.getImageReadersByFormatName( "jpg" );
            javax.imageio.ImageReader reader = ( javax.imageio.ImageReader ) readers.next();
            javax.imageio.stream.ImageInputStream iis = javax.imageio.ImageIO.createImageInputStream( new java.io.File("javabug.jpg") );
            reader.setInput( iis, true );
            java.awt.image.BufferedImage bufferedImage = reader.read( 0 );

I figured out the problem. It was an actual BUG in the JDK!
The code failed with the following JDKs:
java version "1.5.0_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_01-b08)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_01-b08, mixed mode, sharing)
java version "1.5.0_03"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_03-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_03-b07, mixed mode)
The code ran sucessful with this JDK:
java version "1.5.0_06"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_06-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_06-b05, mixed mode, sharing)
If you are using the ImageIO classes, I highly suggest you upgrade to the latest JDK.

Problems with Adobe Reader and Flash Player

I had an Adobe update last Monday and, ever since then, I can't view documents (eg credit card statements) on screen and sites that I previously visited regularly without problem suddenly say that I need to have Adobe Flash Player installed. I've downloaded Adobe Flash Player and it says it's installed correctly but when I return to the site, it still says I need Adobe Flash Player. I've also tried doing an uninstall first and then an instal but the same thing happens. I've run disk first aid and it found a problem with the Head which it fixed but I still can't open documents using Adobe in Safari. Adobe Plug ins tells me that the Internet Access plug in is not loaded but when I ran 'repair Adobe Reader installation", it said there were no missing components detected and repair was not needed. I don't know if it's relevant but I've been having problems with Safari for several weeks, quitting 3 or 4 times a day, mainly when I'm switching from Safari to another programme such as Entourage or Excel.

Hi Carolyn
I don't think I made it clear on the original post that I'm having problems with both Adobe Reader AND Adobe Flash Player. Unfortunately, all the Adobe Reader sites are confidential so I can't give you an illustration on that but for the Adobe Flash Player, try www.jacquielawson.com/ - you can preview cards without being signed in. With the Adobe Reader problems, I get a picture of a blank 'piece of paper' with a small blue square in the top right hand corner that has a white question mark inside it. The first time this happened to me, I was on the UK Inland Revenue site trying to print out some end of year forms. I phoned the Revenue's helpline and they said to try doing a 'save as' to my desktop. It seemed bizarre - saving a blank piece of paper - but lo and behold, when I opened it on my desktop, the forms appeared exactly as normal. However, I've since tried this 'save as' technique with my credit card statement and I still get a blank piece of paper with a blue square and white question mark when I open the desktop copy.
Thanks for your help and patience. I really appreciate it.

Problem With File Reading And Sorting

I'm having problems with a particular task. Here is what I have to do:
Write a program which reads 100 integers from a file. Store these integers
in an array in the order in whcih they are read. Print them to the screen.
Sort the integers in place using bubble sort. Print the sorted array to the
screen. Now implement the sieve of Eratosthenes to place all prime numbers
in an ArrayList. Print that list to the screen.
Here is the code I have so far:
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.io.*;
public class Eratosthenes
    private ArrayList numbers;
    private String inputfile1 = "numbers.txt";
    public Eratosthenes()
        numbers = new ArrayList();
    public void readData()
        try {
            BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(inputfile1));
            for(int i = 1; i <= 100; i++) {
                String temp = reader.readLine();
                numbers.add();
        catch(Exception e)
This is the file reading part I have done but it doesn't recognise the line numbers.add() . It brings up the error - 'Cannot resolve symbol - method add(). Thats the first problem I have, can anyone see any way to fix it and to achieve the task. Also can someone help with the structure of a bubble sort method and a sieve of Eratosthenes method as I have no clue whatsoever. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Ok, I've done that but I'm having another problem. When I'm printing an output to the screen, it prints 100 lines of integers and not 1 line of 100 integers. Can you see the problem in the code that is doing this?
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.io.*;
public class Eratosthenes
    private ArrayList numbers;
    private String inputfile1 = "numbers.txt";
    public Eratosthenes()
        numbers = new ArrayList();
    public void readData()
        try {
            BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(inputfile1));
            for(int i = 1; i <= 100; i++) {
                String temp = reader.readLine();
                numbers.add(temp);
                System.out.println(numbers);
        catch(Exception e)
}

Problems with Multi-Polygon and creating index on it

The elem_info_array for the multi-polygon is obviosuly wrong:

The last entry should be something like: 6885,1003,1; instead it is just 6885.
So the problem might be with sdo_aggr_union as it seems to be creating an invalid geometry.
Can you post the data you used in generating this geometry with sdo_aggr_union ?

Problem with air read and write smb shared directory of file

hi, everyone.
I'm want to access smb directory of file,And to read and
write operation, I would like to ask how I should do?
Thanks!

You can't access any OS facility nor execute arbitrary command.
So the best solution is to mount samba directory BEFORE run your AIR application; you eventually can create a script that mount samba (and asks password) and then run you AIR application.
see

for a more complex solution.

Problem with ImageIO.read and ImageReader GIF becomes dark

I am having problems with certain GIF images loading completely dark. I previously had problems with certain JPGs colors being distorted http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=713164&tstart=0. This was a problem in an old JDK.
Here is the code:
            java.awt.image.BufferedImage bufferedImage = javax.imageio.ImageIO.read( new java.io.File("javabug.gif") );
            System.out.println( bufferedImage );
            javax.imageio.ImageIO.write( bufferedImage, "jpg", new java.io.File("badcolors.jpg") );
            javax.imageio.ImageIO.write( bufferedImage, "png", new java.io.File("badcolors.png") );BufferedImage Read is:
BufferedImage@337838: type = 5 ColorModel: #pixelBits = 24 numComponents = 3 color space = java.awt.color.ICC_ColorSpace@119cca4 transparency = 1 has alpha = false isAlphaPre = false ByteInterleavedRaster: width = 1536 height = 1152 #numDataElements 3 dataOff[0] = 2
Here is the GIF
http://www.alwaysvip.com/javabug.gif
I am using jdk1.5.0_06
If I use java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage instead of ImageIO.read, the problem no longer exists.
        java.awt.Image image = java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage( file.toURL() );
        java.awt.MediaTracker mediaTracker = new java.awt.MediaTracker( new java.awt.Container() );
        mediaTracker.addImage( image, 0 );
        mediaTracker.waitForID( 0 );
        java.awt.image.BufferedImage bufferedImage = new java.awt.image.BufferedImage( image.getWidth( null ), image.getHeight( null ), java.awt.image.BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB );
        java.awt.Graphics g = bufferedImage.createGraphics();
        g.setColor( java.awt.Color.white );
        g.fillRect( 0, 0, image.getWidth( null ), image.getHeight( null ) );
        g.drawImage( image, 0, 0, null );
        g.dispose();
        javax.imageio.ImageIO.write( bufferedImage, "jpg", new java.io.File("goodcolors.jpg") );
        javax.imageio.ImageIO.write( bufferedImage, "png", new java.io.File("goodcolors.png") );BufferedImage Read is:
BufferedImage@1bf216a: type = 1 DirectColorModel: rmask=ff0000 gmask=ff00 bmask=ff amask=0 IntegerInterleavedRaster: width = 1536 height = 1152 #Bands = 3 xOff = 0 yOff = 0 dataOffset[0] 0
Is this another bug in the JDK? Is there a possible workaround where I can still use ImageIO.read?

I figured out the problem. It was an actual BUG in the JDK!
The code failed with the following JDKs:
java version "1.5.0_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_01-b08)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_01-b08, mixed mode, sharing)
java version "1.5.0_03"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_03-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_03-b07, mixed mode)
The code ran sucessful with this JDK:
java version "1.5.0_06"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_06-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_06-b05, mixed mode, sharing)
If you are using the ImageIO classes, I highly suggest you upgrade to the latest JDK.
Best,
Scott

Is Adobe Acrobat an integral part of OS X? I do not see the icon for Adobe in Applications

No. However, OS X has always used the PDF format to raster pages to printers.
It has built-in support for PDF, but some of the advanced features are not available. The Preview app can be used to view PDFs, and Safari can render PDFs in the browser.

Problem with CS3 Photomerge and creating jpegs

Just created a panorama out of 4 jpegs (together about 33MB) and saved it as jpeg.
Now I want to create another panorama out of 10 jpegs (together about 73MB), it worked fine, but I can't save it in jpg format. CS3 only offers .psb, raw or tif. So whatswrong or did i miss something?
Otto

The original jpegs were all 8bit (created with LR from Canon raw). My resolution for the moment: saving within CS3 as tif, open the tif with my freeware viewer Faststone and saving it as a jpeg (size is 39033 x 2710 pixel). Even this, opening the tif and saving as jpeg is not possible within CS3. So what is the problem?

Problem with serial read and write-unable to refresh the port number

I use the advanced serail write and read example. Build the application, copy the application to another laptop with labview run time engine 2009 installed. And I connect my serial device via a serial to usb adaptor. The problem is that VISA source number is always com1, even I refresh it. But in my case the device via adpator should be com5. I can get the hyperterminal working using com5. Something must be wrong. The strange thing is that there are three laptops, I did the same processdure with each one, one of them are working, the other two won't. Anybody came cross same problems before? Many thanks.

Hi,
I think you didn't have installed the Visa Run time engine on this computer.
best regards,

Problem with adobe reader, commenting

one of our authors is using adobe reader x 11,1, and I send him a pdf (enabled commenting and measuring), but for some reason the commenting-fields does not show on his screen?
should I save the pdf in another way?

What do you mean by "commenting fields" exactly? By “commenting filds” I mean the tools in top of the page – delete, highlight etc. When I send the pdf, I save it as “file - save as - reader extended pdf – enable commenting and measuring”, otherwise the commenting tools normally don’t appear by the author.
Are they existing comments? no, it is the text in his pdf-book he needs to correct
Is he able to access the commenting tools? no
You can try sending a non-enabled version since Reader 11 can add comments to a non-enabled document. will try that J

I installed Firefox 3.6. Since then, I am unable to open pdf documents in Firefox. I get a black page. I tried opening the same document in Internet Explorer. It worked fine. I recently installed Nuance's pdf reader and thought that might be the problem.

Every time Firefox opened

How about if you right click on the PDF and select Save Link As..., and then open it locally from within Reader? Does it work ok then? That might be a workaround until the issue within the browser is resolved.

Hi guys. i have some problem with a link from a pdf on-line,when i click on it,the page adds a "%" at the and of the link and says "page not found" because of it.
This happens only when a load my pdf file on my server, because if i click on the link when the file is on my iPad, the page opens without problem.
Any help please?
thanx

the % sign is often used when there's a space in a name. HTML doesn't like spaces so it fills them with % or %20
try, on the end of that link, see if there's a space built into the page or the link when the page was made
On the web address you may be able to 'backspace' at the end and erase that space to get the address, but whomever made the page possibly put a mistake in the link
