Security features in AA Pro & Acrobat Reader problem

Hi,
In Adobe Acrobat Pro my PDF is shown to have "no security" - everything is allowed.
When I open that saved documnet in Reader 9.4 it has security features I did not put there.
In particular, no adding of comments (and markups).
Any ideas how to resolve problem welcome.

Thanks Graffiti,
There seems no problem with the AA pro - opening advanced features - under security properties everything is allowed.
The problem is that when I open that same PDF in Acrobat Reader (which has no "Advanced") it does nlot allow the adding of comments.
In Acrobat Reader on toolbar under Document > Security > Show Security Properties : Security : Document Restrictions Summary : under Commenting it is marked : Not Allowed.
Any idea how to get around this.
What I want to do is to be able to make PDFs and send then to someone else for adding comments but Reader does not allow this and I am not disabling it when I make the PDF with AA Pro.
Cheers

  • Security features not showing in Acrobat Reader 8?

    Just curious why the security features of an older version of Acrobat don't display in the document properties when opened with Reader 8. We do some automated processing, using Acrobat 7.0.7 Pro as the main processor, but when we run into problems with incoming documents, I've found that Reader 8 doesn't seem to see the properties.

    I think that probably no security is set. The issue with AA7 is likely that it is the prior version of AA and it does not allow editing of the current version. If you save the PDF from AA8 with Reduce File Size or PDF Optimize, you can make it backward compatible for editing. One option you can try in AA7 is to print it to a new PDF, but that may not work either.

  • Acrobat Reader problem in mini-PC

    Hello, I have a mini PC, and can't use some preference settings in Adobe Acrobat Reader due to too small screen. For example, I can´'t see the OK-button.  Adobe has no scrollbar. Anybody who know how to solve this problem?

    Thank you for your tip. Yes, I can, but the text then becomes almost unreadable. I hope Adobe some day will draw attention to this little problem and do something about it.

  • Adobe Acrobat Reader problem

    I have not been able to get Adobe Acrobat Reader to work on my phone. My company distributes instruction via pdf files, and I'd been taking my laptop with me on service calls. I still have to do that, because I can't access any .pdf file on my phone except the overly red introductory how-to blurb. One thing that stands out for me is that the app doesn't show up in my app list what so ever. It's listed when I find the 'manage applications' tab. I've tried to download the update, and still no functionality. I uninstalled the update, in hopes of being able to re-install. Is the apps list supposed to include the Adobe Acrobat reader in the list/grid, or am I supposed to only have to go to my list of downloads to get to .pdf's. The downloads list shows where I've tried to download the file, but it always says "download failed".
    Am I doing something incorrectly, or is this something that I need to do a factory reset on the phone to rectify? I have the updated Verizon software, but haven't checked to see if there's anything to update to the operating system.

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the only Adobe Reader from the Play Store that is from Adobe Systems multiple times.
    Is there another setting besides the wifi/data connection option I need to change?
    I've gone through the Settings menu to the Applications menu and selected Manage Applications. The Adobe Reader is listed under "All", and when I select that particular app, it's indicating that version 10.1.1 is on the phone. The only options available are to back out of this tab in the menu, or selecting Force Stop.
    I suspect that in the first few days of having the phone and the "ooh look at mommy's new toy!" someone may have deleted or removed the app somehow, or otherwise caused some kind of disconnection or malfunction. Going back to the Play Store to try again, the Adobe Reader app only has "Open" or "Update" as options for downloading. I downloaded the update (again) and it is showing version 10.3.0, but the downloads are still failing.
    What other little quirks and details am I missing as far as settings, updates, or menu selections? Or should I just back up my pictures and files, and reset the phone back to factory defaults and start over again?

  • Possible Adobe Acrobat Reader Problems?

    I recently tried to bring up  up  a website that requires Adobe Acrobat Reader and he site stated it could not detect Acrobat Reader on my computer.  I went to the Adobe website, which listed reader 9.4  for OS X 10.4.11.  Is Adobe Reader similar to  Flash Player where Adobe is not Supporting Mac Power PC and you are not able to load the most recent Reader for your computer?  After loading from the Adobe site, I tried to mount the web page again.  This time I did not get the notification that it did not recognize Reader on my computer.  But it produced a dark screen with an in-progress circle rotating in the middle of the screen.  After 5 minutes the web page still had mounted and I started wondering what the cause might be.  Is there a later version I can load that will support OS X 10.4.11?

    Hi Darrell, you guessed it...
    Is Adobe Reader similar to  Flash Player where Adobe is not Supporting Mac Power PC and you are not able to load the most recent Reader for your computer?
    Nothing for PPC.
    Might see if PDF plug-in helps...

  • Install the Secure Document Plugin for Adobe Acrobat Reader

    I'm trying to view secure PDF files downloaded from an organization of which I'm member. My computer is registered with their site as I have linked my computer to my subsciption with their organization. Viewing PDF files downloaded from their site has worked fine for years until a couple of days ago.
    Now when I go to open the secure PDF files my web browser automatically opens to this site:
    http://plugin.fileopen.com/Default.aspx?bhcp=1
    ...which seems to be offering some bundle of plugins that I've downloaded four times now.
    But the secure document still won't open.
    I uninstalled my old Adobe Reader 9 and installed the latest Adobe Reader X1
    I've tried to re-register my computer with the organization's site but it won't allow me to register.
    A prompt appears saying:
    The security plug-in required by this command is unavailable.
    DRMRegistration.pdf
    I'm using Mac OS X Version 10.6.8
    Adobe Reader 11.0.0
    Any help opening these secure documents would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi!
    I am having the same exact problem! Same exact message and everything. Trumanwater were you ever able to get this to work? I have checked the download location for FileOpen and it's listed under plug-ins when I go into Adobe Reader via Finder; however, when I open Reader and go into "About Adobe Plug-Ins...", FileOpen is nowhere to be found and I continue to get the same message you are getting...I'm totally mystified! I'll be contacting my organization as well as FileOpen but figured I would ask you too!
    Thank you!

  • Preview / Adobe Acrobat reader problems

    Hi,
    My Mac was working fine until two days ago when I installed Adobe CS3.
    Before, when I tried to download PDFs from my university intranet, Preview would open the files within Safarai. If I saved a PDF and opened it later, again, Preview worked fine.
    But CS3's Adobe Acrobat kept crashing when I tried to open files in it, and I couldn't access any PDFs posted on the from the university intranet. Also, Adobe Acrobat kept crashing when I tried to open it directly. Photoshop gave me an error, but left me "ignore".
    I reinstalled CS3. Same problems.
    I UN-installed CS3. Same problem. Now when I try to open a PDF from the intranet, I get either a blank box where the PDF should be viewed within Safari, or a message saying something about Adobe not being able to locate something. But Adobe should have been uninstalled and I'd hoped Preview would be the default again??
    Please does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Hi again,
    For some reason, yesterday the Library folder seemd to be empty. Today there was an Adobe plug-in file in there, so I deleted it. I also deleted the Adobe folder from the Library. As far as I can tell, I have no more files relating to Adobe on my Mac.
    However, I'm still having the same problem -- I can't open PDFs from my university's intranet. Preview does not seem to be the default any more.
    However, if I click on a PDF that I already have saved, it DOES open Preview.
    Please does anyone have an ideas? I need to get this worked out this weekend before I go away and so I can access files over the Christmas holidays.
    Thank you.

  • What is the relationship between Acrobat Pro, Acrobat Reader, and the Acrobat Reader Plugin for Firefox?

    Mozilla's plugin scanner identifies an old version of the Reader plugin on my machine. The download indicates a massive 55 MB size, and implies that Reader itself will be installed on my machine. HOWEVER, I don't want Reader installed! I use Acrobat Pro and I have noticed some problematic interactions over the years.

  • I cannot open this PDF file in Acrobat 8 Pro or in Acrobat Reader on Windows 7 64-bit

    I have a PDF file that I could open on my Windows XP 32-bit laptop in Acrobat 8 Pro or in Acrobat Reader.  I then upgraded to a Windows 7 64-bit laptop.  But now in Win7-64, I cannot open this same file using the same apps (Acrobat 8 Pro & Acrobat Reader XI). 
    When I try to open it in Acrobat 8, it does not load and instead a popup windows appears saying -
    Adobe Updater
    Some components needed to complete this operation are missing but information about them may be available on the Adobe website. Would you like to search the Adobe website for the missing components? 
    And I can choose either the OK or Quit buttons.  When I click OK, a web browser starts and goes to this website -
    http://www.adobe.com/special/adobe_update_manager/?type=Filter&name=FOPN_foweb&version=0.0 .0.0&lang=en_US&os=Windows&osver=6.1.7601&appid=acrobat8pro-en_US&cpu=intel
    This webpage says -
    Adobe Update Manager
    Adobe cannot locate the requested plugin. New plugins will be listed on this page. Currently there are no plugins.
    So now I am stuck, no direction to go.  I am left without any solution from Adobe for Acrobat on this file.
    When I try to open this PDF file in Reader, it does not load and instead a web browser is spawned loading the webpage -
    http://plugin.fileopen.com/Default.aspx?bhcp=1
    This is the FileOpen Plug-in for Adobe Acrobat/Reader, which prompts to -
    Please click OK to download the FileOpen Plug-in Installer for Adobe Acrobat/Reader 
    I click on OK, download and run the Installer file, accept the terms, and installed the FileOpen Client (x64) B928.  Upon completion, it prompts to Finish.  But it does not automatically bring Reader up or try to load the file.  So I try again to load the PDF file into Reader.  But once again, the file does not load and the web browser is spawned loading the same FileOpen Plug-in Installer link.  I click OK again, and start the same FileOpen Client process.  This time, it recognizes that I have FileOpen Client installed, and the window gives me two choices, Repair or Remove.  So since I apparently need this Plug-in, I choose Repair.  The process seems to complete the Repair.  But when I try to load the file, it still brings me back to the FileOpen Plug-in webpage.  So now I am stuck again, and left without any solution from Adobe for Reader on this file. 
    I tried Adobe support.  But apparently Adobe does not support past releases of their products (Acrobat 8), and also does not give free support for the current version of their free products (Reader XI). 
    Can this be fixed? 

    How is Acrobat 8 not fully Windows 7 compatible?  I see discussions on this Adobe Community saying how Acrobat 8 does work on Windows 7 and with 64-bit.  It appears that if Acrobat 8 is updated to the latest version, then this should fix AA8-Win7 issues.  And I am at the latest AA8 version, 8.3.1. 
    And how are Acrobat 8 and Reader XI are not compatible?  I have always had Acrobat and Reader installed on the same PC, without ever having any issues.  And Adobe allows the installation of one after the other.  So apparently Adobe allows them both to exist together.  If they are incompatible, then why would Adobe allow them to exist together? 
    Anyway, I did uninstall the FileOpen Plug-in and the Reader XI, then reinstalled the FileOpen Plug-in.  So now Reader is not installed and only Acrobat 8 is installed.  I then tried to load the PDF file, but I still get the Acrobat 8 error described above.

  • I installed Acrobat XI pro on a Mac but it only shows the features of acrobat reader - how do I activate the pro features?

    How do I get Acrobat XI pro on a Mac to work fully, and not just act like Acrobat Reader. i just paid and downloaded it, entered new serial number when requested, but when I open a .pdf I have no pro features showing (such as editing tools, convert to powerpoint, etc). I use XI pro on a windows PC and have no problem there.

    Perfect answer. And I feel a bit dumb (should have worked it out, but still finding my way round the Mac). Many thansk for the help.

    Hi
    I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
    The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
    This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
    What can I do?
    thank you a lot.

    There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
    - Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
    - Adobe Reader (free)
    Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

    downloaded acrobat reader 11 onto my Mac Book Pro, it can open the file but will not print. Get a message that says PDF cannot be printed, however, I forwarded it to someone else and they could print it, no problem. I called HP and spent an 1hour with them and then called Apple support and worked with them for 3 hours. No one can figure it out. Is there something wrong with this version? the pdf was created in 2004. Do I have to pay to get Acrobat?

    Let me give you a slightly different perspective than everyone else here.  You are using an unsecured wireless network, which means that all your network traffic is easily available for viewing by anyone else using that network.  That's bad.  Very bad, for you, unless you absolutely trust everyone who lives within range of this network.  So stop doing it.
    As to the Mac not connecting, wireless networking is simply too complex for any reasonable answer without more information.  There are many possible error points, and as often as not it's the Mac that can connect and the Windows PC that cannot.  Since you can't give us any information about the configuration of the neighbor's network, and can't make any changes to it, we can't do much to help you troubleshoot it.
