Problems using Acrobat Pro to scan with 10.5.2 and HP7280

Hello,
I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm trying to use Acrobat Pro to create PDF via scan. The scanner I have is an HP Photosmart C7280 all in one. When I try to use it, it starts up HP Scan Pro and gives option is scan to Acrobat. Unfortunately, when I ask it to do so, it crashes Acrobat.
Any ideas on what to do to make this work?
Thanks

BTW: whats with this ÎÎ¹ÎºÎµ stuff.
As for Adobe/HP.
They have had a long running feud of Sorts for years running.
there was a very long period that spanned several versions of Acrobat, and HP Print Driver Updates. where every time adobe issued an update for Acrobat. Hp had to turn around and issue an update to their print Drivers.
The controversy swilled around If a Pdf was printed through acrobat or Reader to an Hp Printer all you would se was a series of very fine line screwed sideways much like looking at a TV screen the Horizontal hold adjustment was out of whack.
I'm sure Aandi , and Mike as well as myself posting thousands of times over the years to use the work around of going to print menu advanced and choosing print as image. And if it cleared the problem, to get on the horn with HP and let them know their driver was broken.
HP would fix it it work for a month and Adobe would do another update, and the same thing would happen.
It would be like the joke about Peat and repeat sat on a fence. If Peat fell off who's left? Pete. Then you would say repeat. And the person telling everything would repeat until you caught on.
You would think that a Software That depending highly on how printers would print would actually have sample of printers from the printer vendors to test on.
I also find it strange you never hear of any other printers having as much problems with adobe products.

I am having a problem using Acrobat Pro in trying to merge documents.

I am having a problem using Acrobat Pro to merge documents. I can still use other functions withing Acrobat Pro. Help - I have a deadline to meet!

For product, there is an option in preferences where we can set fonts. There are two options: One is application font and other is system font. I am talking about elements 8 which I have but not sure that will solve your problem which is help related.
Hope Help in 5th version is html which opens in Browser? Please confirm.

Problem using Acrobat Pro with Chrome 41.0.2272.118

This works in IE and Firefox but not in Chrome; When I double click on an attachment on my dashbord, only while in Chrome, It tries to open in it's own pdf viewer or Acrobat Reader depending on what plug-in is enabled.. I want to open pdf's in Acrobat X Pro. I have Edit-Prefs-"Display PDF in Browser" selected and the pointer set to Acrobat XPro. I tried disabling both Chrome pdf viewer and the Acrobat Reader Plug-Ins and now it sends me to save the attachment. This adds many steps to what is a single Point & Click in FF or IE. I need the full functionallity of A-X Pro. I have to do this many times in a day. Saving to my internal drive and reopening from there will waste a lot of time in a day.

Hi,
1. To change the scan mode to ADF, you can change it on MAC under the Scan-Modus dropdown in ICA Window (Second window in snapshot)
2. I think you are able to scan both sides automatically using Samsung SCX scanner as the scanner is a duplex scanner. Currently Acrobat automatically scans only front side for simplex scanner and scans both sides for duplex scanner and the option for scan sides is disabled for ICA
In case your scanner stops scanning in flatbed mode, please try to scan with the system scanner to see if it is not due to scanning at a very high DPI
I think this solves your problems.

Is there a problem using Acrobat Reader plugin Find with Mac OS X v10.7 Lion?

I've recently noticed that the Find function is not working when I am viewing a pdf with Safari 6.1.1 and OS 10.7.5. I get a "Not Found" result no matter what I enter, even when I'm sure the search phrase is in the pdf.
Is there a preference in Safari I can change to make this work?

I'm not even blind and I miss Front Row! Apple has been letting us all down. :/ It stinks.

Problems using FPT-AG02G 3D Glasses with a 40TL968B TV and BDX4350 Blu ray

Hi,
I've just set up a new 40TL968B Tv and BDX4350 player.
I decided to invest in a couple of pairs of the FPT-AG02G glasses.
When trying to view a 3D disk I am having an issue where the shutter affect on the glasses keeps on cutting out.
This is happening on both pairs of the glasses and they have both had a full charge using the USB cable supplied.
When I switch them on the light flashes every few seconds and if I go up close to the TV the 3D effect begins on the glasses. This will then continue for maybe 5 to 10 seconds, where the shutters function and the picture appears is in 3D, before stopping and I am left looking at the blurred image from the TV again.
If I then move so the glasses are very close to the IR output from the TV then the shutter affect might begin but stop after period again.
The IR transmitter from the TV is not blocked by anything and niether is the reciever on the glasses.
Has anyone experienced this before or have any ideas how to overcome the problem?
Many thanks, Ian.

I think you should check if the 3D glasses battery power is OK.
I found an nice Toshiba FAQ page which may be helpful in the future.:

How Can I Create a Print Button on a PDF Using Acrobat Pro That Will Also Work on iOS?

I created a Print Button on a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat Pro on my Mac. The Print button works perfectly on different browsers on my Mac and on Windows (running under Parallels Desktop) as well.
When I open the document on my iPad the Print button doesn't even appear. I am guessing that this is a Flash issue but it may be more related to the fact the the action for the button is to access the Print menu item, which doesn't exist under iOS.
Is there any way to create a Print button using Acrobat Pro that will work on a Mac and Windows but also on iOS?

In order to initiate printing by clicking a button, the button has to have either an "execute menu item" type action or use the "print" JavaScript method. As you guessed, the former won't work since there are no menu items to execute, and the latter can only work if the particular PDF viewer you're using supports it. I'm not aware of any that do on iOS.
The button doesn't appear because you're probably opening it in the default PDF viewer, which doesn't support forms at all. If you were to open the form in Adobe Reader, you'd see the button but it wouldn't work.

Acrobat Pro XI scans both sides (blank backs of pages) when pre-configured to scan front side only

Acrobat Pro XI scans both sides (blank backs of pages) when pre-configured to scan front side only; using Brother MFC 9840CDW and Windows 8 (was not a problem with previous Acrobat version). Help, please?

Update: No solution has been discovered; and, I did check the Brother settings (since it allows two-sided printing) - nothing awry there. Acrobat behaves normally when scanning from the flatbed (as opposed to the doc feeder). Using Acrobat to delete every other page (blank ones) after scanning is not a viable option. Please, any thoughts on this issue?

Mac using Acrobat Pro v9 can't connect to shared review hosted on Sharepoint server.

A person at our company has a Mac with Acrobat Pro v9 and can't connect to our shared review hosted on a Sharepoint server. The shared review is initiated from a PC using Acrobat Pro X.
They can access/login to the Sharepoint server via Safari on the same computer both inside the company and from outside.
They used to have it working just fine for months, then suddenly (recently) it stopped working and it just keeps saying that it can't connect.
When trying to connect, Acrobat doesn't ask for credentials. I've tried hunting down where those credentials are stored to try and delete them to force it to ask again, but no luck there either.
I also have a Mac (but I'm running Acrobat Pro XI and now DC) and I can access the same shared review that doesn't work for them. And I can't seem to break it for me (as an effort to figure out their problem).
Any helpful guidance on how to get things back on track would be greatly appreciated. My head hurts from beating it against my desk. :-|
Thanks!

Several of us encountered the same issue running MAC OS X on Acrobat Pro XI. I'm tagging your question to see if someone provides a solution.

Hi Memalyn
Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

How does I resize a pdf file page using Acrobat Pro?

In Acrobat Pro, how can one resize a pdf file page (21.38'' x 26.75'') into one measuring 6'' x 9'', to be submitted as the trim size? Is there a feature that allows this to be done? How does one set all print options from the Application print dialog box to enable one to adjust the dimensions of any customized file page?

I want to scale the 21.4'' by 26.8'' content down to one that can be fitted inside a 6'' by 9'' book.
I have this pdf that was created from the InkFlow app, and I'm using Acrobat Pro to merge three files into one (about 300MB), which I needed to submit to Amazon's CreateSpace, but they needed the trim size of 6'' by 9'', while the pdf is 21.4''' by 26.8'', and I can't amend the source file size of the InkFlow files.
I tried fiddling with the Crop and Print options, but I'm unable to resize the pdf to match the trim size. The problem on my side isn't so much on printing but to resize the pdf file page to 6'' by 9'' to satisfy Amazon's requirement for their trim size. Could this be done with Acrobat Pro? The message that appears is: Full print options of Acrobat Pro, set all print options from the Application print dialog box. Thank for the help.

How to create a small field that cycles through a series of images. (using Acrobat Pro)

Using Acrobat Pro, we need to use a small field to track student progress. With successive mouse clicks, the field would cycle through:
-- a number (that identifies an element of study),
-- same number surrounded by a circle (indicates element is assigned to the student),
-- same number with a check mark (indicates element was completed by the student),
-- back to the original number.
This could probably be handled by cycling through a series of small images when the user clicks on the field.
The "Check Box" field allows only a check to be added to the field. It does not allow the circle and does not cycle through multiple states.
The "Text Box" field might allow this capability, but if so we are not able to configure it properly.
Any solutions?   Thanks!

Thanks Michael,
The information at the link you provided enabled us to create a button that cycles through a series of ASCII characters.
This us useful, but we need to cycle through a series of images. A more difficult problem.
FYI, an example of the javascript that cycles through a series of ASCII characters is shown below. (The "else" statement pertaining to a null "" buttonGetCaption state is used to initiate an initial state of "1" for the button when the form is first opened.).
if
(event.target.buttonGetCaption()=="1"+"\u2714") {
    event.target.buttonSetCaption("1");
    event.target.textColor = color.black; }
else if (event.target.buttonGetCaption()=="") {
    event.target.buttonSetCaption("1");
    event.target.textColor = color.black; }
else if (event.target.buttonGetCaption()=="1P") {
    event.target.buttonSetCaption("1"+"\u2714");
    event.target.textColor = color.green; }
else if (event.target.buttonGetCaption()=="1") {
    event.target.buttonSetCaption("1P");
    event.target.textColor = color.red; }
loop
Again, we are still looking for a way to cycle through a series of images so any help with that problem would be appreciated.

New to Acrobat Pro 9 - Issues with Portfolio Management

All
With apologies, I am completely new to Acrobat Pro 9 - and this may have been answered before.
I am using Acrobat Pro 9 as, hopefully, a file management system (in a Mac environment). I want to be able to take all of my files - native format - and combine them into one portflio and arrange them in a certain order.
No problem in creating the portfolio and dropping in the files, but I can't get them to arrange in the order I want. When someone opens the file, I want them to be able to see the file layered as if it were a paper file. So, for example, the most recent email would be on top, with the attachments going with that email directly behind it, then the previous correspondence behind that, a presentation given behind that, etc.
The problem I have is that when I deposit the documents in the file, they are randomly assembled. I don't want to use the sort chronologically button as the date created does not always reflect the actual date of the correspondence.
Also, I am hoping that I can later add documents to the file not only on top (the most recent) but in the middle if I find a missing document, for example.
I have tried creating a new tab to order the documents, but as soon as I start numbering them in order, the numbering of the others gets revised. Very frustrating (plus with this method you would constantly have to renumber all the files everytime you added a new one).
Please tell me this is possible and, if so, what I need to do. I am assuming it is a simple thing, so thank you in advance for any assistance you may be able to offer.

Thank you for your response. I got an error message as follows:
%%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
%%[ Error: undefined; OffendingCommand: MSPUB_setclippath_7 ]%%
Stack:
[0.0 -1.0 1.0 0.0 -10200.0 6600.5]
%%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%

Any ideas?

I have created PDF from hardcopy by using my scanner. After I run OCR option for my PDF by using Acrobat Pro 9. But "Text-to-speech" functionality of the PDF says that an error message comes up that says the page is empty when I turns on the read out loud

I have created PDF from hardcopy by using my scanner. After I run OCR option for my PDF by using Acrobat Pro 9. But "Text-to-speech" functionality of the PDF says that an error message comes up that says the page is empty when I turns on the read out loud option in Acrobat. Kindly help me to sortout this problems?

So I tried generating the same PDFs on two other computers that have Acrobat 9 Pro. Results were reproduced. The verdict is:
- complex PDF files (that is, containing cross-references, tables of contents, and bookmarks) generated by Acrobat 9.x Pro are roughly 2-5x larger than the identical file generated with Acrobat 8.x Pro.
- different PDF conversion settings make a negligable difference (less than 10% rather than 70-80%).
- using the "Reduce File Size" or "Optimize PDF" option cuts the file size roughly in half, almost always resulting in a "image downsampling mask" warning message, which requires acknowledgement (that is a problem for batch processing or automation).
- adding an Acrobat watermark to the file cuts the file size roughly in half.
- just using Save As to another filename has no effect on file size.
- generating the PDF in Acrobat 9 with links but no PDF bookmarks still results in the inflated file size.
- generating the PDF in Acrobat 9 without any links or bookmarks results in approximately the same file size as the Acrobat 8 PDF with full links and bookmarks.
It appears that Acrobat 9's manner of adding links is what's bloating the files, and in my case it's probably not related to images or image resolution/print quality. It's a shame, because Acrobat 9 seems to have made some improvements to the Review Tracker interface, and a few other bells and whistles which I haven't really gotten around to exporing yet. But unless I find a way to keep my links and the PDF file sizes comparable to what I was getting with Acrobat 8 Pro, it looks like I'm going to stay with Acrobat 8.

Cannot creat pdf from Powerpoint using Acrobat Pro X

I cannot create pdf files from Powerpoint 2010 using Acrobat Pro X. I am using Windows 7 32-bit. There are no updates for my Acrobat Pro X and so the PDFMaker is up to date. When trying to save to a pdf, the program will crash. The problem signature from Powerpoint states that the problem name is "APPCRASH" and that the fault module named MPS.dll. HELP!

Here's a slightly better version.
