Share message to point user to the Adobe Content Viewer app

When a user shares a folio, can there be a choice to send a message with instructions to share via the Adobe Content Viewer app?
Currently, when I share a folio, the other person receives an email which points them to digitialpublishing.acrobat.com and tells them how "once accepted, the folio can be accessed in your Folio Builder panel in InDesign." Now I can see that in many environments that is a perfectly reasonable workflow, but I have found it really confuses clients when you're sharing folios with people merely need to view the folios via the Adobe Content Viewer app. I fielded a few "it's not giving me permission", "What is it I am supposed to do, John?", "InDesign, I don't have InDesign" before figuring out the problem.
Now I know what's going on, I'm sending them emails saying they don't need to worry about the standard message and digitialpublishing.acrobat.com, but just install the app, login with your Adobe ID, and the app will make the folio available to them. Why can't this route be an option for the sharing instructions?

Sorry, no idea. We're all just fellow users here and have no insight into the processes within the iTunes Store, and you'll never get a response from Apple in these forums.
Speaking strictly for me (I'm the only one I can speak for), I'm not sure how Bob Levine would know that Apple is sitting on an update unless he works for Adobe (as he may, though I would think his profile there would say so). But his statement that the version of Adobe Content Viewer is the "original version" is incorrect, if that's what he really meant to say. The version in the iTunes Store is by no means the original, it's up to 1.7.0, and was last updated on May 16th of this year. There may indeed be a new version awaiting approval, though; I have no way of knowing. If there is, though, it would not seem that Apple has been sitting on it for all that long.
Regards.

  • When is the 'Adobe Content Viewer app' for iPad going to be updated?

    I really need this app to view my content and to meet my deadlines! Adobe have told me it's Apple that is holding the approval up?

  • Customize the look of the Adobe Content Viewer App

    Hi,
    is it possible to customize the look of the Adobe Viewer? For instance: I would like to have smaller, shelf-like, thumbnails instead of the new big ones. I also want to change the background and add a logo or sth.
    Best
    Marcel

  • Need Adobe Content Viewer app update

    Hi,
    I am trying to view my publication on the Adobe Content Viewer on my iPad through
    1) syncing though creative cloud
    I then get this message. However when I go to the App Store, it says all my apps are to date.
    I deleted the Adobe Content Viewer app from my iPad and reinstalled it. I still get the same message.
    2) previewing through Folio Builder
    Can someone tell me how I can update my Adobe Content Viewer when the App store says there are no updates available???
    There is nothing wrong with my App store app. I have already updated other apps in the mean time with no problem.
    Thanks!

    You'll have to wait for Apple to approve the new viewer.
    In the mean time you should create folios as version 24.

  • Adobe Content Viewer app

    Hi  Guys I created my interactive document on Indesign 5.5 yesterday. I can  view it on my desktop 'Adobe Content Viewer'. Is there a way I can view  my document on the iPad without buying the expensive Adobe Digital  Publishing suite? I don't want to publish the document, I just want to text it on the iPad? When I log into adobe acrobat I can't organise the files, I can only view the workspace!? Also the 'Adobe Content Viewer app' keeps telling me it needs to be updated?? Can anybody help?

    Bob,
    I have been closely monitoring many threads here at DPS (and DPS Private Beta Forums) in the last few weeks, and yes I am new to this particular product group having only been in it since March.  But I wonder if there is some way that Adobe can be made aware of how serious this issue is with Builder and Viewer and tools "not lining up" with Apple.
    To keep putting this problem on Apple is somewhat of a shopworn technique (and I say this with all due respect.). Still, Apple commands fully 80+ % of the tablet market.  They are the big dog.
    Suggestions for the future:  Perhaps there will be a way to choose a tools/viewers workflow at startup -- or to put a bigger "red flag" before installing any update that is not yet supported by Apple.  Approaching this from the engineering side, you may have forgotten just how many disclaimer screens the average designer/production person faces every week!  Many of us don't read them carefully. (Richard Dreyfuss reads them).
    I have nothing but admiration for what Adobe software engineers are trying to do -- and these are nascent times to be sure.  But it certainly seems like this launch is going poorly.

  • HTMLResources, does this work in the adobe content viewer on the iPad

    HTMLResources, does this work in the adobe content viewer. I have created my HTMLResources folder with the pdf and zipped it. It how ever does not download anything when I press the button in the content viewer.

    Hi Bob, I just did my test again. What I didn't do in the first place was zip the contents, not the folder. It worked, thank you very much. My next question is can these pdfs be saved into ibooks? Can we download content such as forms that can be filled in and then eamiled back via the ipad mail program?

  • Could not find the Adobe Content Viewer.

    I have CS6 on my machine and when I try to preview a Folio on my desktop I get the prompt: An error occurred while generating folio preview. Could not find the Adobe Content Viewer.
    I have Adobe Air installed. Does anyone have any recommendations for me?
    thank you.
    PS. I also have CS5 installed and I could not generate preview from CS5 either.

  • Cannot log in to The Adobe Content Viewer on my iPad - Says Authentication Failed?

    Cannot login to the Adobe Content Viewer on my ipad.
    Says: Authentication Failed...

    Check two things:
    1) Make sure your device is connected to the Internet.
    2) Make sure that the Adobe ID you're using is verified to work with DPS. On a computer, sign in to https://digitalpublishing.acrobat.com, and follow the prompts.
    Let us know if you have a valid Adobe ID and you're still getting this error.

    It is always a struggle for us. We've got a client struggling with it now -- had created an adobe id a week ago and dow nloaed the app. has followed the troubleshooting guide. but still no luck...

  • Adobe Content Viewer app and .folio file

    I created and published a .folio file on my Web server.
    My boss downloaded the free Adobe Content Viewer app from iTunes for his iPad. When he tries to open the .folio file from his home screen it goes online to a browser and just shows a grey screen with an icon for the .folio file, its file size and nothing happens.
    Am I missing something? The same .folio file works fine on my desktop version of Adobe Content Viewer. How do I get it to work in his app?
    Thanks.

    Found some other threads. Is this right?
    1. Create my .folio file.
    2. Host on my free Acrobat.com account.
    3. Get viewer to get their own free Acrobat.com account and share doc URL with them.
    4. They download file and view in the free Adobe Content viewer app for iPad.
    Would check, but I don't have access to an iPad with live internet connection (yet).
    Thanks.

    This is a known issue with the v25 Adobe Content Viewer. It is fixed with the v26 version, which is currently awaiting approval from Apple. If you have a Pro or Enterprise subscription to DPS, you can build a custom Adobe Content Viewer.

  • I cannot get the Adobe Content Viewer to display anything in InDesign CS6 / on a Windows 7 PC.

    I create a scrollable text that is in a text frame using the Folio Overlay with the settings of Vertical Scroll and Use the Document Setting for its position.  When I click on the Preview icon on the Folio Overlay panel, it comes up with the with a popup that says Preview on Desktop and click on it and nothing happens.
    Message was edited by: jammyster

    I reinstalled a download of the update (for the third time) and still it will not display my file in the Content Viewer using the Folio Overlay panel and clicking on the preview button and selected display on the desktop.  I see all the compilations, but when it is done, there is nothing displayed like it never did the complilation.  Do I need to call Adobe tech support and tell them about the bug or give up and start using the Apple Book Authoring software and forget about Adobe because there seems no answer.
