Welcome to our community, Vinesh
Firstly, I'm thinking you have wandered into the wrong
community. You are asking a question about Acrobat and this
community is focused on Adobe Captivate. If you want to ask further
questions about Acrobat, you should consider asking in the Acrobat
community. You may do so by clicking the link below:
Click
here to visit the Acrobat community
Now for the gist of what you asked. There is a huge
difference between Acrobat Reader and Acrobat. One uses Acrobat as
the application used to create content that is later viewed by
someone with the basic Acrobat reader. The reader is a free
download for all. You have to purchase Acrobat in order to create
content that you produce for the reader to present.
Hopefully that makes a bit of sense. If not, try posting the
same question over in the Acrobat forums and see what someone
replies with.
Cheers... Rick

  • PDFs look different in Adobe reader and Acrobat professional compared to the built in PDF viewer on windows 8

    Hi there,
    I have been trying to narrow down an issue we have been having for some time in printing PDF files and finding that they look different on paper compared to screen.  Up until today our big KIP plotter got the blame, but as I have been collecting notes on a little windows 8 tablet I noted that PDFs opened in the windows PDF viewer have the same visual defects as the printouts.  My example today is that on a CAD drawing there is a small box/frame with a number in their, I tried printing and the frame was completely blacked out.  As a test I tried saving the PDF as a TIFF file from Adobe Acrobat professional and this file had the same fault as the printed copy.  When I open it in the windows 8 pdf viewer I can see that there is a shading within this box that does not show on Adobe Reader (latest version 11.0.10.32), the adobe reader and acrobat pro version both show a white background to the box.  We have been having lots of issues with sections being missing from drawings and overly feint lines.
    I am not sure where to start trying to narrow down why we are getting different results in different PDF readers.  Is there anyone who maybe able to point me in the right direction?  It almost feels like the shading or colour density is not being consistent when PDFs are being opened in different packages.
    Thanks in advance
    Andy

    Some PDF viewers comply with the PDF ISO Standard (ISO 32000) "just enough" while others (such as Adobe's) fully comply.
    As with anything there's a cost to using anything that comes from a "just enough" approach.
    Be well...

  • Adobe Reader and Acrobat Pro updates for 11.0.10 being pushed out through SolarWinds Patch Manager are not being recognized as applicable.

    I am trying to update our Adobe Reader and Acrobat Pro to 11.0.10 using the default MSP packages with SolarWinds Patch Manager.  All of the systems keep reporting as 'NOT APPLICABLE'.  All of the workstations have Reader11.0.09, with about 10% still on 11.0.08 (due to the fact that the reader 11.0.09 package only patched about 2/3 of the systems).  All systems that have Acrobat Pro are 11.0.09.
    In SolarWinds I am using the "Adobe Systems, Inc. Packages" node.
    Adobe Systems Acrobat 11 Catalog
    Adobe Systems Reader 11 Catalog
    and the SW Patch Manager downloads the msp's straight from Adobe.
    I have checked the msp's manually and they will update at least back to 11.0.07 in Reader, and 11.0.0 in Acrobat Pro. (I had an old stand alone system that still had Reader 11.0.07, and I did a new install of Pro and went straight to update 11.0.10)
    The SolarWinds Tech said, "Okay. That content is produced by Adobe. Any questions concerning applicability logic or diagnosing why a package reports as NotApplicable when that's not expected would need to be directed to Adobe, as they are solely responsible for that content and its behavior".
    I am new to SolarWinds Patch Manager, and any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    It sounds like you are attempting to use the SCUP catalogs outside of the MS solution.  I can almost guarantee you that Adobe didn't test it if it's not referenced in the ETK:  11   SCCM-SCUP — Enterprise Administration Guide
    That being said there "should" be logging available in any deployment solution.   Since I am not familiar with Solar-Winds particular solution I can't say if it logs errors and how verbose those logs might be.    If you have logs then post the output and the forum members "might" be able to assist you.

  • Created a pdf from a word-file and inserted formfields. The fields works in other pdf-readers(nitro,reader etc), but not in adobe reader and acrobat. Please help.

    Hi,
    I have created a pdf from a word-file and inserted formfields for a work related file. I've used nitro pro to create the formfield. They works in nitro, reader, foxit etc. but not adobe reader. From page 3 and out, the font wont show when writing in a formfield. Some formfield doesnt even show.
    Please help me fix this (hopefully before the presentation at work friday) :-)

    Agreed. Adobe makes no claims that their Reader will work properly with forms made from third party software.

  • 2012 RDS Group Policy - Adobe Reader and Acrobat to Co-exist

    I have a 2012 RDS session host that 20 users terminal in to.We have always had Adobe Reader installed for users to open PDF files.10 of the users required Adobe Acrobat Pro, so we obtained a license for 10 users to access Acrobat Pro.We installed Acrobat Pro on the RDS session host, which also has Reader installed.The problem is, when a user opens a PDF file, it is opening with Acrobat Pro.I need to set the the default PDF program to Adobe Reader. I tried configuring a GPO per the article below:http://www.grouppolicy.biz/2011/09/how-to-use-group-policy-to-change-open-with-file-associations/However, the default is still Acrobat Pro.What is the best way to accomplish this task at hand?
    This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

    Hey, what you have described is normal behaviour for the way you have written your Custom ADM file.
    Because you are not using Proper Windows Policies, i.e. Setting them in the policy location in the registry, then once you apply a setting, it will not get over written again ever unless you made a group policy change or do a gpupdate.
    Normal group policies will get re-applied depending on the time frame set in the policy its self.

  • Flash Player for Adobe Reader and Acrobat

    Hello folks,
    We are seeing more Adobe Portfolio documents but lately our users are unable to view them with Reader / Acrobat XI.
    I applied to distribute the Flash installer using this page:
    http://www.adobe.com/products/players/flash-player-distribution.html
    I get a confirmation email but this leads me to another page with only Flash browser plugins.
    Where can I get a .MSI?  How do we deploy the FULL Flash Player in an enterprise?
    Thanks
    Rice

    Yeah!  That is the same link Adobe emailed me.  I only see useless Flash browser pluggins or maybe I am blind? 
    Adobe's help page says my Flash Active X isn't good enough (we are a Chrome shop anyhow) and since I'm a LAN admin, I need apply for the liecense to get the .msi (which I did).   It is possible their help page is wrong or I am missing something?
    Thanks

  • Adobe reader and acrobat api questions

    Hi all,
    I have been asked to produce a library(dll) that can be used by a developer in an existing application. The idea is that the end user will be able to hover over a pdf object(for example, a pdf file name in a list) and this will cause a preview window to open with the document rendered inside.
    I have been reading up on this and have found myself very confused.
    Before I spend any resources on this project can anyone confirm the following for me please?
    I understand that if I want to render a pdf in a window I would need to use the acrobat API. This would include having a full install of acrobat to allow this to work? Currently I have only reader 9 available.
    If the above is true and I purchase a licensed full version of acrobat and develop my solution. When I then distribute my solution, will the machines then making use of my code also require a full copy of acrobat in order to work?
    I am not being paid for the work and therefore covering the cost of several licensed copies of acrobat is not a solution I would wish to pursue.
    Any comments suggestions would be appreciated.

    It sounds like you are attempting to use the SCUP catalogs outside of the MS solution.  I can almost guarantee you that Adobe didn't test it if it's not referenced in the ETK:  11   SCCM-SCUP — Enterprise Administration Guide
    That being said there "should" be logging available in any deployment solution.   Since I am not familiar with Solar-Winds particular solution I can't say if it logs errors and how verbose those logs might be.    If you have logs then post the output and the forum members "might" be able to assist you.

    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?

    Hi Tbeirne,
    If you just want to save a pdf opened in Safari to your machine use the save as option from within the Reader plugin window. Just click on any of the buttons highlighted in below screenshots to Save a pdf at any location on your machine.
    or
    To summarize the issue, if you had opened an Internet PDF in a browser plug-in, you must use the save feature in the plug-in, not the Safari File > PDF Export, or File > Save As...
    Please let us know if this solution works for you and you are able to save and view PDFs files locally.
    Regards,
    Shashi
