Safari PDF no show
When I click a pdf link in safari, it goes to a black screen. I have done the right click info open with thing. Tried re-installing safari, and nothing has fixed it. Anyone have any advice?
Hi hppyted,
First of all, Welcome to the Apple Discussion forums!
If applicable make sure you are running Safari in 32 bit mode.
There are some very good tips for troubleshooting this problem found in the excellent MacFixit article PDFs not showing in Safari.
Hope that helps,

Pdf documents show checked background in safari
When I open a PDF document in Safari the background shows as grey and white checks rather than white, how do I fix this
Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again. -
HT1338 safari pdf file open error
Dear. Sir
I have recently downloaded Adobe Reader X, new version. I don't have any problem with this application when I open the stored pdf file in my mac.
However, it has serious problem with opening a new pdf file on safari.
When I download pdf files, the pdf document shows as a black....!!! (No respond at all from Safari)
Please help me out
Yours faithfully
Euna NohBack up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:

SonaliYou probably have already checked, but confirm that ordinary PDF's show the problem :
http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1641/en_US/macbook_air-mid-2013-pro duct_info.pdf
If so, copy the whole of the following line
defaults write -app Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool NO
Quit Safari, open Terminal from /Applications/Utilities, paste in what you copied & press enter.
Try a PDF.
If there is still a problem, test with any Safari extensions switched off, & failing that, confirm that they display normally in a new or Guest user account. -
Safari pdf plugin requires $60+ fee. What's up?
I can't get my bank's pdf to show in entirety because I've got to buy a $60+ fee for a plugin. Is there a work around? I'm running Mountain Lion Safari in 32 bit. 64 bit doesn't work either.
It is beginning to appear that just about everything that is connected with Adobe (pdf viewer & flash) has been disabled on most macs. I believe this is done on purpose by Apple.
Similar to what's happening with anything connected with Google.
Apple continues to try to control the world.
I don't even have that plug-in listed in my Library, so there's nothing to remove. Using Google Chrome does work, thank goodness.
I do have to print as .pdf file many bank and financial statements for my non-profit. It is becoming more and more difficult.
Fortunately, I still have a Windows 7 computer with which to accomplish many of these tasks that Apple is blocking. Are you listening Apple? do you care? -

I typed my email address in Google and my Behance pdf resume shows up with all my information. Did you all know this? This is a security breach in my opinion.
Message was edited by: Carol SmithHI Carol,
Thanks for writing. It looks like you had selected your work experience to be visible to the public, so this is why it was visible online. Now I see that you have your work experience listed as private (other than what you have on your profile), so this should no longer be the case. Let me know if you're still seeing this searh result and what exact google term you searched for it to come up.
Thanks, talk to you soon! -
Just converted a PDF document to Word, none of the graphics from the PDF file show up in the Word document?
What do I need to do to bring the graphics and exhibits from the PDF file to the Word file?Hi jackp52432917,
How was that PDF file created? Please see Will Adobe ExportPDF convert both text and form... | Adobe Community
It could be that the PDF file you're converting was created using a third-party application, and it doesn't contain all the information necessary to ensure a clean conversion. Have you had similar troubles converting other PDF files?
Best,

Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader. I get this error message "Adobe Reader could not open 'OD Test Bed Proposals_0.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)." I have tried changing the 'open with' options too. Thanks
Try this:
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins
Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files
Empty the trash
Relaunch Safari. You can now download undamaged PDFs. -
In iOS 7, how do you get your Recent PDFs to show up by default?
In iOS 6, my Recent PDFs would show up by default whenever I opened Adobe. That is not the case with iOS 7. Is there a way to get your Recent PDFs to show up by default in iOS 7?
Not possible with the actual version of Adobe Reader.

I sent in my iPhone 6 for repair. I used restore on the loaner phone I was given, and the contacts, texts, reminders, and Safari pages all showed up. My phone is back, and when I used the restore function again, those items are missing. I do not use iCloud because I have no wifi at home, limited data available for regularly backing up, and I have a 64GB phone and don't wish to pay to upgrade from the 5GB iCloud storage. Am I doing something wrong? It worked so seamlessly on my loaner phone that I am completely stumped as to why it will not restore those items to my original phone again.
The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer or cloud service. Your contacts should be in whatever program/service you have chosen to sync.
If you have failed to do this, then they are likely gone. -
Safari doesn't show Chinese characters in a specific site?
Hi all,
I've just found a weird thing that Safari doesn't show Chinese character in this site.
http://blog.bcxstudio.net/
It works in Firefox (Mac and win), Chrome (mac and win), IE 6-9, Safari for Mac, but not Safari on Windows.
However, when I browse other websites like Yahoo hong kong and Apple HK. There is no problem.
http://hk.news.yahoo.com
http://www.apple.com/hk
My best guess is that the site may uses some fonts (CSS3 @font-face?) that safari did not support.
Anyone knows what happened?
I am on Windows 7, Safari for Windows 5.0.2 (7533.18.5)
Thank you!That's a bit odd ... I'm getting the opposite effect at the moment on my XP SP3. I'm not seeing the text in IE 8 (I don't think I've got the International character sets installed for my XP Pro), but they show fine in my Safari 5.0.2.
Are you still seeing the effect at your end at the moment, b? -
Servlet generated PDF wont show up in browser
This is the code i use to show the PDF in a browser
ByteArrayOutputStream outStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
res.setContentType("application/pdf");
res.setHeader("Content-Disposition","inline;Filename= " + file.getName());
ServletOutputStream sos = res.getOutputStream();
outStream.writeTo(sos);
sos.flush();
outStream.close();
sos.close();
In Netscape i get an error saying the filename does not start with %PDF and in IE the page just shows up blank. from the blank pagewhen i use the back button and then hit the forward button the pdf will show up in IE.
I also tries using fileOuput stream instead of servletoutputstream
FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream( file );
outStream.writeTo(fout);
fout.close() ;
outStream.close() ;
In this case IE does nothing but it works on netscape or mozilla
This is running on websphere 5.0 , apache webserver on linux env
But i need to get this worked on IE any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in Advance
SidI just skipped posting over the actual pdf write code.
ByteArrayOutputStream outStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
//Write bytes to the PDF
writer = createDocument(document, outStream);
res.setContentType("applicatio�n/pdf");
res.setHeader("Content-Disposi�tion","inline;Filename= " +
file.getName());
ServletOutputStream sos = res.getOutputStream();
outStream.writeTo(sos);
sos.flush();
outStream.close();
sos.close();
If i use fileOutputStream i can see that the file is being created physically without any problem. It would not though open up in the Browser!
Thanks

When I convert a word document to a pdf, it shows up as a firefox html document
Recently I reloaded my acrobat pro and ever since when I convert a word file to a pdf, it shows as a firefox html file. Why?
Hi chief grunt,
It seems that the pdf ownership is taken over by Firefox.
Right click on the generated file and select 'Open with' > Choose Default program.
In the list of Programs that appear select Adobe Acrobat and click on 'Apply> Ok'
You can also check the setting in Acrobat > Edit> Preferences> General> Defalult pdf handler

Created a pdf file showing a graph generated with CL_GUI_CHART_ENGINE
Hi Experts!
Please, anyone has already created a pdf file showing a graph generated with CL_GUI_CHART_ENGINE??
Could anyone help me with this requirement?
Thanks in advance,
Best regardsHi,
I searched and found another solution, because with the code from the link above I got everytime a short dump, maybe I did something wrong.
The solution works with Adobe Form
1. I used the class cl_igs_chart_engine to create a chart with my data and customizing to get the binary data of the image.
2. Convert the binary tab to xstring.
3. You can use this xstring on the Adobe Form to display the image.
Maybe the following tips are useful.
*How to get the data of chart you can see in the class
CL_TIME_CHART_SIMPLE (use cl_gui_chart_engine for the chart but class cl_igs_chart_engine for saving the image)
*How to bind the image to the importing parameter (xstring)
