  • How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI?

    How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI? I'm having some hiccups getting Adobe to register the software, but since I set it as the default .pdf reader during setup, things try (and fail) to open in the as yet unregistered software. How can I change it temporariiy to the Acrobat Reader XI that I have installed?

    Anubha,
    It worked! Thank you so much.
    I'd opened file with the 'Open with' feature then clicking Adobe Reader,
    but that didn't do it. When I used 'Open with', then 'Choose default
    program...', it worked like a charm.
    Again, thank you!

  • Why does Adobe Reader 9.5.0 open pdf created by Excel, but not with Reader X.

    We have a number of pdf's that open 100% with Adobe Reader 9.5.0, but not with Reader X.
    On Reader X, the message “A Number is out of range” is shown and the image is corrupted.
    The image was created using “File SaveAs PDF” from Excel (Office 2007), with “Standard” optimization.
    For interest, if the same “File SaveAs PDF”  from Excel (Office 2007) is used, but with “Minimum Size” optimization set, then the resulting pdf opens perfectly with both Reader 9 & X.
    Distressing that a new version does not work where previous version did.

    HI
    Sorry, my first time posting and I don’t seem to be able to attach the problem pdf to my posting.
    Example of problem file attached. Opens in 9.5.0 but not X
    Regards

  • .pdf works in Acrobat Pro 8 but not Adobe Reader 8

    I have a dynamic .pdf that I created in Livecycle Designer.
    It works perfectly in Acrobat Pro 8 but not Adobe Reader 8.
    There is a function that highlights a form field orange. It is called from the enter event of every form field.
    There is another function that highlights a form field red if the field contains an invalid value. This is called from the exit event of every form field.
    When I enter a field in Reader 8, it highlights orange as it should but does not allow me to enter a value and it adds an additional blank page to the .pdf. Also, it does not highlight red as it should on exit.
    If I remove the enter script, the exit script works fine.
    I sent the .pdf to somebody to test and it worked perfectly for him in Reader 8.00 but not for me in 8.00 or 8.01 which makes me think maybe it is just a problem with my settings.
    Can anybody help?
    Thank you.

    Okay, I just upgraded to Acrobat Pro 8.1 and the .pdf fails there now too.
    So my problem is not an inconsistency between Acrobat and Reader, it is that the .pdf works in the earlier 8.0 but not the latest 8.1.
    I am happy to send the .pdf to anybody who wants to see it. Hopefully the problem is with my code and not the update.
    Thanks.

  • Table of Contents page numbers works for PDF but not for other formats

    Hi,
    I followed exactly was indicated here regarding creation of TOC.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e12187/T421739T481157.htm
    The page numbers generated correctly for PDF but not for RTF, HTML and XLS.
    (HTML and XLS are understandably not paginated in nature but why not in RTF?)
    Tried to make the simplest example work, with 2 headings each on a separate page. Doesn't work on either MSWord 2003 or 2007.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Regards,
    Jarell

    Hi Kavipriya,
    What is your email address? I have attached a file in Oracle Metalink, under SR 3-5172030861. named test_toc.rtf
    You may use any xml because the template does not use any dynamic binding of values.
    The template is basically 2 pages, the TOC in the 1st page. First TOC item (Heading 1) is in Page 1, and Second TOC item is in Page 2.
    So the end result should be (PDF result from BI Publisher):
    First TOC Item .................. 1
    Second TOC Item ............. 2
    But for RTF it outputs:
    First TOC Item .................. 0
    Second TOC Item ............. 0
    And after doing Print Preview (once or twice)
    First TOC Item .................. Error in Bookmark
    Second TOC Item ............. Error in Bookmark
    Hope this is detailed enough to illustrate the problem.

  • The scroll function on my mousepad is disabled when viewing a pdf file in firefox version 5.0. The scroll works on the pdf, but not on the other tabs. When the pdf is closed, the scroll function returns to normal. Any ideas?!

    The scroll function on my mousepad is disabled when viewing a pdf file in firefox version 5.0. The scroll works on the pdf, but not on the other tabs. When the pdf is closed, the scroll function returns to normal. Any ideas?!

    Hey thanx for the help, it worked like a charm.
    I think firefox changed the application lay out, as I used to be able to choose my PDF opener from the list at " Adobe Acrobat Forms Document' where I could choose Nitro-PDF reader, but it has now moved all the way to the bottom like you suggested to the obvious place of "Portable Document Format" section.
    If someone didn't tell me , I wouldn't have scrolled all the way down to be able to find it... it really should be with all its cousins up the top...
    Cheers again..

  • My brother uses Jaws, a braille device to read his computer and Iphone. Jaws does not read a .pdf but it will read a .doc.  What do you seggest?

    My brother uses Jaws, a braille device to read his computer and Iphone.  Jaws does not read a .pdf but it will read a .doc.  What do you suggest?

    PDFs are notorious for being difficult to navigate with a screen reader, because nearly all PDFs are either not remediated for accessibility or poorly remediated. Hopefully that landscape is changing with the proposed new 508 rules, which substantially raise the bar for high quality document accessibility and hopefully will have some legal teeth. Still, JAWS should at least attempt to read any PDF that is not image-only. It should infer the tags if no tags are present. I am not at all familiar with JAWS but it sounds to me like the software may not be configured properly for reading PDFs. The JAWS company Freedom Scientific may be able to help, or posting in a JAWS support forum may yield useful information, or maybe a JAWS expert will chime in here. Sorry I am not able to be of help.

  • How can I create a pdf but not have it open in acrobat afterwards

    I want to be able to create a pdf file but not have it open up in acrobat after it is created.
    I am doing this in an Access application that outputs a report to a pdf and then faxes that pdf to a fax number associated with that report.  It might loop thru several hundred reports so I don't want to have close several hundred pdfs manually, plus I doubt my computer could even handle that many opened pdf files.  Is there someway of configuring acrobat so that it won't open after a pdf is created?
    Thank you
    Ben Tolsky

    Using VBA I open up a report and then use the following code:
    DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, RptName, acFormatPDF, strFile, 0
    RptName is the name of the report
    strFile is C:\Reports\test.pdf
    It creates the pdf no problem, its just that it opens it up afterwards.  I would like it to not open up the pdf in acrobat because I want to loop thru several hunderd reports and fax them to different numbers.

  • Buttons work in PDF but not in SWF export

    I have setup two buttons (A and B for the purpose of this explanation). I have it setup so that when button A is clicked, button B (which is actuall an image that has been converted into a button) is displayed. When you click on button B, it hides. Button B is setup to hide in PDF for initial view.
    This allows me to have a reader click on several headers to display different images. It works great in PDF, but it doesn't work at all in SWF. I am using CS4.
    Any suggestions why it doesn't work?
    Also, if there is a better way to do this, please let me know.
    Thank you very much,
    Fernando

    Show/Hide buttons is PDF-only feature, it´s not supported in exported SWFs.
    Only thing you can do is upgrade to CS5/CS5.5, then you will have Multistate Objects in use, with them you can do that same thing (and much more actually)

  • Flash Playing in PDF But Not in ADE

    Hi,
    I'm trying to add a flash animation to a PDF and then convert it to an ebook to be viewed in Adobe Digital Editions. I am using AcrobatX to create a PDF to test this out. The flash animation will work in a PDF viewer, but not in Adobe Digital Editions. What do I need to do to make this work?

  • Want hyperlinks viewable in PDF but NOT TO PRINT

    I am creating a booklet with hyperlinks (really just to other pages in the document) and I want to make a button on every page to return to the TOC.
    However, I don't want this button to show up when the user prints the PDF.
    I have tried all kinds of combinations with making layers not printable, and checking options in the "Export PDF" dialogue box. But whenever I hide the button from printing, it also hides it in the exported PDF.

    Thank you for your tips!
    Ok, I wasn't explaining this properly. I hadn't actually made a true button. I had only highlighted text and made a hyperlink to other pages in the document. That worked...except it printed too.
    Unfortunately, I now have the opposite problem. I have converted the text frames to TRUE buttons, and added the same behaviors to jump to other pages, but now they don't work when I click them in the exported PDF. I am exporting to Acrobat 8 just in case. The states work, but nothing happens. I even went through the help files.

  • Why pdf but not epub

    Why can I download pdf files but not epub files?

    ASCM's are not books, but a way to get books.  Obviously a server problem to wherever you licensed the book.  The ACSM is license info and points to the sites servers that run a copy Adobe Content server and request the actual book.
    I Just confirmed a book from my library which uses ACS, using ADE 1.8.3.

  • Why am I now having certificate issues with Firefox but not IE?

    I can no longer log into Gmail, Facebook, Amazon, etc... using Firefox. I get the following error "accounts.google.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)". It works with IE but not Firefox. This just started a few days ago - prior to that I was able to log into those https sites without issue.
    Any suggestions? Thank you.

    "browser.xul.error_pages.expert_bad_cert" was set on false so I set it to true and tried reloading.
    Got the page giving me the option to add exception and continue. Kept trying that and would not continue to the page even after accepting 10+ times.
