Reader X : Wrong Fonts (was working with Reader\Pro 9 and Pro 10)
Hi all,
First : this form pdf work with adobe Reader 9 and Acrobat Pro 9\X
i did a pdf form with scribus, i embed 2 fonts : 3of9barcode and freemono bold fonts.
(compatibility PDF 1.5 (acrobat 6) )
My client update to Reader X and the problem is that the fonts are 'squares' and the barcode is text not barcode.
When i do look at the properties in reader X, it founds the embedded fonts. There is no error when opening it.
no console errors or Reader error.
If i open the document with Pro X , there is no problem, the fonts are good. i try to save a copy, an optimized copy, or a copy with limited rights,
but the result is the same, when i open the pdf with Reader X the fonts are bad.
i tried ton install the fonts on Windows but it does not help...
Do you have any clue ???
I have exactly the same problem!!!
I create and layout my forms in scribus and adjust them in Adobe 9 Pro. Setting the tab order and having the possibility to make fillable forms saveable are gorgeous. However, people who use ReaderX cannot work with these very forms anymore because there appears only squiggly squary rubbish in the fillable form fields instead of nice and clean Times Now Roman font. In Reader 9 everything worked fine. I cannot force everybody to go back to version 9, in order to be able to work wth the forms.
It's so annoying, please help.

LR 5 - using it on a MAC-
Error message: "the following files were not imported because they could not be read (335).
I have been working with several forums and have tried all recommendations and none have worked.
I have tried reloading new LR 5 - and it worked for a short time and then stopped.
Very frustrated that I cannot talk with someone at Adobe.
The folks that have made recommendations are great but once their suggestions dont work they drop the link,
Is there someone or someplace I can take my computer to fix this issue.
It seems to be a problem between LR and Yosemite.The permissions have been changed on the destination folder where the photos are to be copied into.
You must make sure that the permissions are set to Read and Write.
Or perhaps the destination folder has been changed accidentally to something else, and you need to change it back to whatever it used to be. -

Designer 7.0 form working with Reader 7.0.5 but not Reader 7.0.8
Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has had a problem with a formed created using Designer 7.0 that was working with Reader 7.0.5 but no longer functions with Reader 7.0.8?
The form consists of a numeric textbox N1 and 2 checkboxes C1[0] and C1[1].
All code is done using FormCalc.
Here is the situation: if the number in the numeric box is blank or not greater then zero, then neither check box can be checked. Both check boxes can not be checked at the same time. If the value in the numeric box is greater then zero, the checkboxes may or may not be checked (again both can not be checked at the same time).
N1 has code the following code in its exit event:
if (($.isNull) or ($.rawValue le 0)) then
C1[0].rawValue = 0 //if not positive value, checkboxes must be blank
C1[1].rawValue = 0
endif
C1[0] has the following code in its click and exit event
if (C1[0].rawValue == 1) then
C1[1].rawValue = 0 //C1[0] and C1[1] can not both be checked
endif
if ((N1.isNull) or (N1.rawValue le 0)) then
$.rawValue = 0 //uncheck if N1 is not positive
endif
C1[1] has the following code in its click and exit event
if (C1[1].rawValue == 1) then
C1[0].rawValue = 0 //C1[0] and C1[1] can not both be checked
endif
if ((N1.isNull) or (N1.rawValue le 0)) then
C1[1].rawValue = 0 //uncheck if N1 is not positive
endif
The above code worked exactly as described when the form was used in Reader 7.0.5.
Under Reader 7.0.8 the following happens:
if N1 is blank or less then or equal to zero, both checkboxes can be checked at the same time (this should not happen at all) but neither can be unchecked
if N1 is positive the code (and checkboxes) function as described.
I am not sure if this is a Designer issue or a Professional/Reader issue, so I am posting this here as well as in the other 2 spots.
Any help is greatly appreciated,
BenChris,
Thank you for the sample you provided. First, I must apologize for not mentioning that there was additional code in the Click event. I thought I had removed it from my form, but apparently I had not.
I have compare the sample you provided to my form. I noticed several differences between them. First was that you used Designer 7.1 to create your sample, whereas I used Designer 7.0. I do not believe that this will have an impact, although it is possible. Also, in your sample, then click and exit events both need to contain the same "check" code. Your sample has one IF statement in the click event and one IF statement in the exit event. To match my form code, the Click and Exit events together need to contain both IF statements. My form originally contained the code in the Change event also.
i.e. C1[0] has the following code in both its Click, Exit and Change events
if (C1[0].rawValue == 1) then
C1[1].rawValue = 0 //C1[0] and C1[1] can not both be checked
endif
if ((N1.isNull) or (N1.rawValue le 0)) then
$.rawValue = 0 //uncheck if N1 is not positive
endif
and similarly for C1[1].
Based off your sample, I did some more digging and found that the problem is caused by the Change event for the checkboxes. I have removed the code from the Change event and now the form works as desired.
So, if the Change event has NO code, and if the Click and Exit events for the checkboxes have both IF statements the overall behavior (as specified earlier) is identical (and what I am looking for) for both Reader 7.0.5 and 7.0.8.
Now, if I add the IF statements to the Change event (without removing them from Click and Exit), the behavior in Reader 7.0.5 does not change (works as specified). In Reader 7.0.8, the checkboxes can not be unchecked if N1 is blank.
So my questions now become:
1) What has actually changed between Reader 7.0.5 and 7.0.8 (i.e. more detailed description than the generic release notes)?
2) Which one actually exhibits the correct behavior?
3) If this is a change to the event model, is this documented anywhere?
Thanks again,
Ben -
Embedded PDF object .postMessage doesn't work with Reader DC on IE
In our application, we have PDFs embedded in the browser with an object tag such as this:
<object id="pdfObject" width="100%" height="100%" type="application/pdf" data="#{url}"></object>
There are HTML/Javascript controls on the page which communicate with the PDF via this syntax:
document.getElementById("pdfObject").postMessage([arg])
This has been working great with Adobe Reader versions 10+. It actually still works with Reader DC on Firefox. However, there is a problem with Adobe Reader DC on Internet Explorer version 11.
All I can tell so far is the "postMessage" function isn't appearing. Using IE dev tools:
document.getElementById("pdfObject").postMessage
Object doesn't support this property or method
Any help with this would be amazing. It is a critical part of our application here.My application has two-way communication between browser and embedded PDF. Basically a user clicks a button on the browser and via Javascript the embedded PDF form is submitted. Everything was working before the update to Reader DC, but now it fails in Internet Explorer, but not in Firefox (or Chrome, if the Reader plugin isn't disabled entirely by their new default disable-NPAPI plugin policy...)
I originally was troubleshooting communication from the browser to the embedded PDF, which is done according to the Javascript for Acrobat API reference (page 358?), in the browser, as follows: document.getElementById('pdfObject').postMessage([args])
Whatever is happening, postMessage is not a valid property or method of the PDF object
Then I found this other thread:
Adobe Reader DC: hostContainer not worked on IE
I confirmed that within the embedded PDF, when setting up communication from the PDF to the browser, it is not able to register the hostContainer (again, on IE only)
I have this script on initialization within the PDF:
<---
this.disclosed = true;
if (this.hostContainer) this.hostContainer.messageHandler.onMessage = onMessageFunc
this.hostContainer.messageHandler.onDisclose = function() { return true; }; }
---->
Problem is this.hostContainer is null.
The main point here is all of this was definitely working before updating to Reader DC, and is still working with DC on Firefox, but not on IE.
To complicate things further, I have now uninstalled DC and downgraded to Reader 11.0.10.32, and am having a new bug, this time hostContainer is detected and communication to and from the PDF works again, but the submitForm action is failing with "Unable to open URL to submit this form" and "External undefined: exec". Testing the exact same version and script with Firefox works fine -
Outlook Email script won't work with Reader 9.1
The attached form was designed in ES 8.2 and has worked fine with Reader 8.0. The "properties defaults" tab is set for Reader 9.0 or better. However, upon recent upgrade to Reader 9.1, the Outlook Email script stopped working. I'm new to Livecycle and scripts and was hoping that someone had an easy fix?
okay thanks. One more question. What script is used to activate the "read receipt requested" function in Outlook?

Interesting .....it sounds like an issue in Reader. From a code perspective everything is good .....the code tells Reader's email service to communicate with the mail client. This could be where the issue is.
You may want to post your question on the Acrobat forum and see if they know of anything .....or you can report the issue to Support and have them look into it. Maybe something was introduced into the 9.1 version.
From a Designer perspective all is good.

Have Sony reader 505, ADE doesn't recognize when attached to mac OX 10.6.8. works with reader library but not with ADE
YEAY!
I just got the solution (that worked for me, anyway) from a Sony support rep. No PC or VMWare needed.
OK, you've installed Sony eBook Library v3, and Adobe Digital editions, you've set up your acocunts and authorized your computer on both of them, and you've authorized your Reader with the Sony Library application.
You go to the public library ebook download page, either through the Sony Library or just through a bookmark.
You check out a book, and open it in Adobe Digital Editions, which still won't recognize your Reader.
BUT, in the Sony Library app, you can now click "File, Import.." and go find the pdf you downloaded with the Adobe app.
On my Mac, it was in ~/Documents/Digital Editions
Import it, and drag it to your Reader.
The first time you do this, it will ask you to authorize the Reader with your Adobe ID.
Worked like a charm. -

Hello, I have a Mac computer with NVIDIA 750M dedicated graphics card and monitor EIZO but the problem was there when I was working with Windows and Acer monitor. When I open a file from Camera Raw in PS this is smaller than the screen so I double-click with the tool "hand" to fit on the screen, but the picture loses sharpness and becomes blurry. If you magnify the image even only slightly with the tool "zoom" the picture comes back clear. In Camera Raw instead is always sharp. I solve the problem by turning off the graphics card in PS but often use plugin that need the graphics card otherwise the processing time is much longer. I ask for help.

I have been using the Firefox feature in which I could have multiple sets of tabs open but see only the set I was working with. I updated and now feature is gone. I had a small icon on the upper right side of my toolbar. I used it all the time to keep separate windows for news, financial items, travel plans, etc. Has this been removed from Firefox?

Problem filling forms in Acrobat 8, was working with Acrobat 7
I have written some code to fill in PDF forms from an other application.
The code is working with Acrobat version 7.
If I run the same code with Acrobat 8 installed I get an error message, that there is no open document.
Code:
Set objAcrobat = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
objAcrobat.Hide
'create document based on template
set objPDDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
if (objPDDoc.Open(sDocument)) then
'Get the AVDoc object for saving the document at a later time...
set objAVDoc = objPDDoc.OpenAVDoc(sDocument)
'Get the Forms object for changing some fields now...
set objFormApp = CreateObject("AFormAut.App")
'Loop over the Fields...
set objForm = objFormApp.Fields() ==> BRINGS UP THE ERROR
'replace bookmarks
tsCCDBReplaceAcrobatBookmarks objFormThere are form fields in the document. As I just wrote it was working with Acrobat 7.
I'll try to fill in the forms with unhidden acrobat app. -
Recently upgraded to Mavericks... was working with Pages documents created with previous OS ... Pages is now frozen and I don't dare force quit and loose my old documents. How can I "thaw".... unfreeze Pages? Have several pages windows open that I was working on.
I also had this problem after I installed Mavericks: Pages files freezing at close, need to force quit.
Workaround: when saving any document created with an earlier version of Pages, be sure to untick the "include preview in document".
For some reason, this resolves the problem.
BTW "loose" is not a verb. You probably mean "lose".
