Saving in Adobe reader XI issue

Hello,
whenever I click on SAVE, Adobe Reader behave as it was "Save as" and always opens the directory where I want to save my pdf.
This is extremely annoying since we need to save the same document while it is open very often and CTRL+S doesn't automatically save the file. In a nutshell CTRL+S and CTRL+Shift+S do the same exact thing.
Also the Autosave is bugged. Whenever the application crashes, it fails to retrieve the last autosaved document and gave us an error. We keep losing hours of work because of this (and again the CTRL+S doesn't work either to workaround the problem!!)
We tested this issue on different computers in our office.
Please let me know if there is any fix to this.
Thanks.
Federico

We are having the same issue. When a document is opened from a local or shared drive and annotations are added and a the first time a user either clicks the save button on the toolbar or CTRL+S the save as dialog opens, then if save pressed a warning message pops up that the file already exists. These extra steps greatly reduce our workflow efficiency, as we just want to add an annotation and move on.
Version 11.0.3
Thanks

How do I enable a LiveCycle PDF form to be saved in Adobe Reader?

I have an interactive PDF form that I created in LiveCycle. However, when it is opened with Adobe Reader, the user is unable to save it. They can only print from Reader. How do I enable the LiveCycle PDF form to be saved in Adobe Reader?

You have to add save rights with Acrobat.
Open you form in Acrobat and then save it via File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools.

Form processed by LiveCycle, but cannot be saved by Adobe Reader

Hi All,
I have an Adobe form which has been processed by LiveCycle, however, it still cannot be saved by Adobe Reader. What could be the probable cause of this?
Background:
Previously, the whole process could work alright; i.e. create form using Acrobat Prof -> process using LiveCycle -> editing and saving with Adobe Reader.
However, after some changes where made to the pre-processed form, LiveCycle can no longer make the form save-able by Adobe Reader.
Thanks and best rgds,
Kwok Pong

Hi Kwok,
The term "LiveCycle" covers a good number of products so I will make the assumption you are talking about Reader Extensions. Please let me know if this is wrong.
If you licensed Adobe LiveCycle Barcoded Forms this does not necessarily mean that you have licensed Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions (which is sometimes referred to as ARES). ARES is the technology that is used to allow the Barcoded Forms PDFs to work but does not enable save-off-line capabilities on your forms unless you licensed this feature too.
Take a few minutes and listen to this presentation, it should give you an idea of how things are licensed: http://my.adobe.acrobat.com/barcodedformsandreaderextensions

If they are saved on your iPad, they are as safe as anything else.

Default Saving Location Adobe Reader Version 11.0.1

Default Saving Location Adobe Reader 11.0.1 -
Since upgrading to Reader XI the default saving location no longer works. So esssentially in previous versions The file path would default to the last place you saved a document, so when saving multiple documents in the one file path it wasn't time consuming.
Since upgrading it does not do this anymore and you have to select the file saving path each time you open a new PDF, which adds to the time to save multiple documents, so currently I guess it just opens a temporary folder each time you select Save As.
Can you please advise the setting that needs to be altered to fix this.
Thanks

Thank you. We have tried that but it has not made any difference. Adobe still requires a new file name to save the file.

My documents are saved as Adobe Reader instead pf Microsoft document

Ever since I installed Adobe Reader software, each time I save a document as Microsft Doc, it is instead saved as Adobe Reader.
I don't want my documents to be saved as Adobe Reader. I want to save my documents as Microsoft .doc
What do I do to solve that?
Thanks!

How are you saving these documents; from Word? And they get saved as .pdf despite you selecting .doc?
Please explain exactly what you are doing, and what the result is. "Saved as Adobe Reader" does not mean anything.

Adobe Reader X issues- email & saving files

Loaded program and discovered two issues. 1st when you hit the icon for e-mail, instead of opening an Outlook message a side panel opens to ask if you want to use an Adobe product for e-mail or compose a regular Outlook message. Looked for a way to stream line and have it operate like it does in Adobe Reader 9 and earlier versions, without success. Then after opening a PDF attachemnt from an e-mail the file save icon was grayed out, so I had to go to the drop down menu to save the flie. Net net, using Adobe Reader X will add time to my two most frequent tasks, so I have reverted back to Adobe 9.
If someone knows of a work around which provides the functionality of the earlier versions of Adobe Reader, I will try to sample Adobe Reader X, but for now I saw nothing in Adobe X that makes it worth the extra time to do my most common functions.

I echo the comments- it has been very frustrating to use X- I corrected the e-mail issue. Here is the much bigger issue for me, how do you set it to go back to the last place where you saved a file. I will batch items to scan and much of the time they go to the same place- in previous versions of Reader it has gone back to where I saved the last document. In X it takes numerous clicks longer to accomplish the same task. I am the only one in our office still using x and will need to go back to 9 to save time. This also seems to be the same thing in Acrobat Pro, that is why I use Reader for general tasks as opposd to Acrobat Pro.

Forms built with 9 not saving with Adobe reader X

I have many computers that are running Adobe reader X. when they are attempting to save a form that was built in Adobe 9.x, a msg dictates that they are unable to save file. How can I rectify this without downgrading my Adobe to 9 accross our system.

Downgrading to Adobe Reader 9 will not solve the problem because the issue is Reader was designed not to save completed forms.
You can use Acrobat 9 to add Extended Reader Rights to PDF forms and that enabled copy can be saved with form data by Acrobat X.
You will be restricted to 500 returned forms for each form. Above that limit you should contact Adobe about their LiveCycle server product.

Adobe Reader X Issues

A user's computer with Adobe Reader X isntalled (when viewing a PDF file) gets blocked at the top and on the left side. It appears that there are multiple toolbars at the top that are now just blank and a side bar on the left that stretches from the left side into the center of the document. The menu bar is also blank, the File, Edit, Options, do not show. I can tell something that appears to be tool bars are blocking the entire view, because if I zoom out far enough, the document will becom small enough to fit in the small viewable screen. The same view, carries over to the print preview window. If the user prints the document, it prints fine. Besides this, the computer and other programs works fine. I've un-installed Adobe Reader, re-downloaded and re-installed it, downloaded and installed the latest video driver, still having this issue. Computer is a Dell Otptiplex with Windows 7 Professional (32 Bits), 4 MB of RAM, and is updated with all Windows Updates. This user has been dealing with this for soo long, he does not remember when or how it started. The user is part of a domain that has a corporate antivirus and malware protection which I'd like to think would detect any virus if he caught any.
I'd really appreciate any ideas or suggestions.
Thanks,
Vong

Cyberdawg,
Try to turn off anything that enhances speeds his video through the video driver. That is most likely the problem..

Saving a form that can be saved in Adobe Reader after filled out.

I have created a form using Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended and would like it to be filled out and than saved as is to the hard drive of the person receiving it. I have looked at how to do this and it says go to File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features. I opened up my document in Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended and went to File > Save As but it doesn't give me the option for Reader Extended PDF or anything at all. It just has the Save As button which will open up the Save As Dialogue box. What do I need to do to be able to save this how I would like this?

In Acrobat 9 it's: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
They change it every time.

Preview vs Adobe Reader (Technical issue)

/ Disregard, Answer Found!
After installing "Adobe Reader", preview is no longer "highlighted" as an option for viewing PDF's.
I placed the reader files from the applications folder into the trash; that did not solve the problem.
What files in the applications support folder are part of the adobe reader program? Would any remaining files there prevent Preview from being an option?
Any other files in the system library preventing this?

Hi Walt, Fruhulda,
I'm not sure I'm getting this.
The Pages file is 300 dpi.
When I 'export' and use 'best' to create a PDF, that PDF is not 300 dpi, it's 72 dpi.
So bringing it into Preview and 'saving as' a quartz filter 300 dpi isn't going to recover the lost quality. When I try this my 14 meg file (from Pages to it's version of PDF) is reduced to 2 megs when converted BACK to 300 dpi via Preview. The end result as far as I can tell is a really raunchy 72 dpi looking document ... and my drop shadows (a luminous blue in this case) have been partially chopped out of the picture.
There doesn't appear to be any way to 'save' anything in the ColorSync Utility. I can 'lock' the new version. I did notice that if I closed and opened the ColorSync, the changes (adding the 300 dpi) had actually disappeared. So now I've 'locked' the changes; we'll see if that helps.
But there is no way to 'save' anything. And the new Generic PDFX-3 (300dpi) doesn't appear in the Pages 'print to PDF' choices. Now I can 'edit menu' and supposedly add new choices ... if I knew where ColorSync might be storing these quartz filters. But I have no idea. No general searches bring up anything.
I've been using a quartz filter I got from France, which I store in - adim / Library / PDF Services. But there are no other .qfilter files when I do a search.

Adobe Reader preferences issue, text stretched and zoomed in.

I have a user with Adobe Reader 11.0.2 installed and cannot change his preferences and always receives a "Screen reader" prompt when opening a PDF. The window is stretched accross the screen and the only way to close it is Tab - Enter. The preferences are the same way, theres no way to check the settings because the window is too zoomed in and the text is too large. I have already tried uninstalling it and reinstalling, deleted all the folders and reg keys to do a clean install as well as under multiple profiles. Same issue each time. Has anyone else seen this issue?
Any advice would be great.

I believe I have seen this where an essential Windows font is removed.

Reading Preferences not saving in Adobe Reader 11

When Adobe Reader updates, it resets the setting (GUI--Edit--Preferences--Reading--Page vs Documents --to default instead of "read only current visible pages". This causing some printing documents to "hang" in the preparing pages to print dialog box. Once I go in and reset this option, I no longer have issue. Is there a way to "lock" this setting in a GPO without having to touch every PC? I have 200+ PC in the work environment and the hands on resolution is very time consuming.
