Shared rendering bug between Reader X and Cs5?

Hi All,
This is my first post in this forum.
Recently I found this shared PDF rendering bug
by both Adobe products: Illustrator CS5 and
Adobe Reader X.
Look at the attached images.
The same PDF file opened in Illustrator CS4
or 8 different PDF viewers does not shows
these square clipping boxes around the words
"La Tormenta".
Why Adobe changed the way its products interpret
pdf files?
If you want, you could download the pdf file:

Thanks in advance!

What is the difference between Read Later and Read Later Fast?

I have been...they both seem to do the same thing. Since they both seem to also be Mozilla software and not intended to compete with each other, I'm thinking I'm missing some advantage that one has over the other.

Fixing cosmetic differences between Reader 8 and 9

When Reader 9 starts up, by default it clicks the Highlight Fields toggle button. In Reader 8, this was unchecked by default.
In general, this is a good thing. It makes it much more obvious to end-users which documents are fillable/editable PDFs, and which are plain PDFs that can only be printed.
However, in some cases, where your user-base is already expecting fillable forms, this means that all your carefully color-coordinated forms now dont look as good on startup.
Another issue is when you have required fields, which show up with red borders - apart from looking a bit garish, our usability testing has indicated that it can make new users freak out, thinking theyve already made a mistake before theyve even done anything.
This is compounded if you have fields with caption above the field, which in Reader 9 is rendering as two red borders.
There is a very simple way to preserve the Reader 8 behavior. Here's how:

Note 816352: Rendering Differences between DESIGN 2002 and 2003

Note 816352 should be released within next day or two.
With design 2002, in a number of places it was possible to use colors that were reflected directly in the rendering. With design 2003, the raw use of colours are not supported any more. For a number of cases this has been replaced with semantic colors.
<htmlb:textView>-textColor
This attribute was NOT supported in earlier service packs, and only from 620SP38 was it possible to specify a semantic colour. The followingvalues are supported:
DEFAULT
DIMINISHED
POSITIVE
CRITICAL
NEGATIVE
MARKED1
MARKED2
<htmlb:gridLayoutCell>-style
Only the following values are supported:
HEADER
FILL1
FILL2
FILL3
PLAIN
TRANSPARENT
BORDER
<htmlb:gridLayoutCell>-backgroundColor
Deprecated and not supported in design 2003.
<htmlb:tableView> IF_HTMLB_TABLEVIEW_ITERATOR~RENDER_CELL_START/P_STYLE
In the iterator call, the design 2002 technique of setting different values into the p_style string is not supported any more. What is available for design 2003 is exactly the technical implementation technique, but with logical styles. At the moment only the style value "celldesign" is supported. It can have any of the following values:
celldesign:STANDARD
celldesign:ALTERNATING
celldesign:TRANSPARENT
celldesign:NEGATIVE
celldesign:POSITIVE
celldesign:TOTAL
celldesign:SUBTOTAL
celldesign:SUBTOTAL_LIGHT
celldesign:BADVALUE_DARK
celldesign:BADVALUE_MEDIUM

celldesign:GOODVALUE_LIGHT
celldesign:GROUP_HIGHLIGHTED
celldesign:GR OUP_HIGHLIGHTED_LIGHT
celldesign:KEY_MEDIUM
celldesign:GROUP_LEVEL1
celldesign:GROUP_LEVEL2
celldesign:GROUP_LEVEL3
c elldesign:MARKED
celldesign:FILTER
celldesign:FILTERICON
celldesign:POPIN
<htmlb:tableView> IF_HTMLB_TABLEVIEW_ITERATOR~RENDER_CELL_START/P_CLASS
Deprecated and not supported in design 2003.

Thanks for the feedback. Closing the gap between JavaFX CSS and W3C CSS will be an evolutionary process. It would be nice to use a standard's based stylesheet but there is not always a 1-1 mapping to JavaFX. But for those properties that can be mapped, it is something that should be supported. For example, we should be able to handle "font" or "-fx-font".

PDF within IE acting differently between Reader 9x and 11x

We are in the process of upgrading from Reader 9x to 11x. In testing users have found that when they try to open multiple PDF's from a single webpage within Internet Explorer, 11x opens only one at a time, closing the current one and opening a new one. This happens for all PDF attempted. It's seems that Reader 9x would allow they to open as many PDF's as they wanted and it would open multiple "windows" for each new PDF opened. I looked at the settings between 9 and 11 and I really don't see any (Aha) change to make that I might have missed configuring Reader 11.
Anyone have any ideas? I need to figure this out to move off of Reader 9 and onto 11, if I can't I might be forced to continue to use Reader 9, because of this functionality....
Thanks in advance!

So interesting, I don't have that configured. Now I'm kinda scratching my head, why is opens with multiple within Reader 9 with no issues, but Reader 11 fails to do the same? Well, it appears that my tester has gone home for the day.. So I'll have to wait until tomorrow morning to try this again.
Thanks for the sugguestion!
I'm going to give this a shot in the morning... I've attached the current IE tab settings here....

Conflict between Reader 9 and (Old!) Acrobat 6.0.6 Standard?

I have an old XP SP3 computer that came with Acrobat 6 Standard, which I want to keep for printing documents to PDF. (I'm not willing to purchase a new version of Acrobat for this old machine.) It no longer works, however, as an add-on to Internet Explorer 8, at least not with my latest security software, and it's probably not secure online anyhow. Therefore I want to install the latest version of Acrobat Reader on the same machine. I tried this with Adobe Reader 9, but it appeared to damage some part of Acrobat 6, resulting in error messages whenever I started the latter; so I uninstalled Reader 9 and re-installed/updated Acrobat 6, which is now working again, Question:
Is there a way to install some reasonably current (and secure) version of Acrobat Reader without harming my installation of Acrobat 6? Thanks in advance for any suggestions. -- JClarkW

OK, here's where I am now. Where did I go wrong?
Before installing Reader:
     In Acrobat 6.0.6, turned off all Internet, Web, and Update preferences.
     In Internet Explorer 8, disabled all four Adobe add-ons (Adobe PDF, AcroIEToolbarHelper Class, another Adobe PDF, and AcroIEHlprObjClass, all dated from 2003).
     In MSConfig, found no startup objects to uncheck except AcroTray.exe, which I left alone as instructed.
Installed Adobe Reader 8.2.0 (which is apparently still supported) and allowed it to update to the current version, 8.2.5:
     Only prefernence change in reader was to use only certified plug-ins. In particular, "Display PDF in browser" is still checked.
     Made sure that Reader 8 was the default program for PDFs, and indeed, Reader 8 opens whenever I double-click a PDF.
     In Internet Explorer 8, re-enabled the four Adobe add-ons listed above. NOTE that they all still have the 2003 date!
Results:
     Acrobat 6 still works fine this time around, in that I can start it without errors, open PDF files in it, and print to it successfully from, say, MSWord. Threfore, I did not go back and re-check MSConfig.
     In Internet Explorer 8, however, double-clicking a link to a PDF does NOT open the PDF in the browser (or elsewhere). Instead it offers me the usual Microsoft options of Run or Save. Choosing Run opens Reader 8 in a new window. Evidently the browser add-on is not working properly. Although this is workable, it is not ideal.
Any ideas how to update the browser add-ons to work as they should? -- JClarkW

Weird printing issue between reader 7 and 9

Hi, I just was made aware of an issue by one of my users, regarding printing a PDF file. I recently replaced his computer, both the old one and the new one are XP Pro SP3, the old one has reader 7, the new one has 9. The file in question is laid out legal (8.5x14) landscape and I believe it was created in Acrobat 4.x. It's a production schedule, roughly 10 pages. The left half side of each page has a list of items, and the right half has checkboxes for our manufacturing process. The guy printing the file is in shipping, and he just needs the left half of the page and is trying to print it as letter portrait. Under reader 7, we are clicking File, Print, set it to No scaling, uncheck Auto-Rotate and Center. If you look in the preview window, you see the legal/landscape page, but there is a white letter/portrait box over the left side of the page, and the right side is grayed out. Click OK, and that's what it prints. This is good.
Now, in reader 9, if we do all the same things and print the file, what prints is the right half of the page, which is grayed out in the preview. This is happening on his new computer (xp pro sp3, reader 9) as well as on my box (win7 ult, reader 9) and happens on multiple printers. Only thing I see different is the reader version. Has anyone else ran into this?
Thanks in advance,

MPE layer bug(s) - GTX 480 and CS5 trial

Hi All,
Due to some strange MPE-PPro behaviour, I am now having some last minute doubts about whether to jump up to a full version of the production suite - or perhaps wait for a .1 patch.
Please advise if any of you can spot where the cause of these problems might lie...
These are fairly easy-to-repeat MPE-related bugs in the trial version of PPro CS5, so far I have found issues both with scaling and when duplicating clips to new layers.
Current hardware is as follows (will be looking for a new i7-920/X58 mobo combo if CS5 is purchased)
Mobo- Asus Striker Extreme
CPU - QX6700 C2Q@ 2.66Hz
RAM 4G
Win7 Pro x64
So for testing purposes, I have "enabled" MPE using a GTX 480 and all seems fine for basic cuts-only or opacity fades on multiple layers. The bugs I have found seem to be related to adding more than 2 effects (even on just a few short clips...)
Scenario 1:
1) DV clip on layer 1, second DV clip on layer 2 scaled to 25% and positioned top left corner. Yellow line - playback behaviour is OK so far.
2) With MPE enabled, if I add some fast CC to layer 2 clip then the footage plays back as though scaling is reset to 100% (although the slider still shows 25%)
3) Switch from MPE to SW preview and the clip correctly returns to 25% scale (still with CC applied). Switch back and the scaling is again lost.
Scenario 2:
1) DVCPRO 1080 25p clip on layer 1, duplicated to layer 2 with a gaussian blur and 15% opacity (creates a basic glow effect). Yellow line - playback behaviour is OK so far. Repeat for a second clip on to layers 3&4 with a simple opacity fade-up at start on each, overlaying the last few secs of 1&2 for the length of the fade.
2) With MPE enabled, layers 3&4 only show when the layer 1&2 clip has reached the out point, ie the fade up on layer3&4 is "ignored" and the second clip only cuts in when the first clip has reached the out point. All the time with a Yellow line.
3) Switch from MPE to SW preview and everything works as it should (after preview render is generated of course).
So my questions are, can anyone with a GTX 285 or (certified) Quadro repeat either of these bugs? Am I better to wait until the GTX 480 is officially certified in a few months (possibly including a patch) or is there another cause elsewhere in my current hardware?
MPE is really nice (in theory at least) but it worries me that it fails to calculate opacity occlusion and scaling correctly for such relatively simple sequences.
Any suggestions/opinions/comments welcome!
Cheers,
Dave.
Broader Pictures

Hi Harm,
I've created a fresh test project and recreated a timeline similar to scenaio 1 (sticking to DV to rule out demanding codec issues)...
Here's the OK intial version of the timeline:
LAYER4: PIP clip scaled to 25% pos. top left, no other effects just an opacity fade-in-out
LAYER3: PIP clip scaled to 25% pos. top right, no other effects just an opacity fade-in-out
LAYER2: PIP clip scaled to 25% pos. bottom right, no other effects just an opacity fade-in-out
LAYER1: Simple clip no scaling full screen (backdrop), fast cc effect w/ default values
Preview bar is yellow and play back is fine with MPE on.
THEN, if I add any other MPE-enabled effect to any layer, the preview goes red and the top-most layer disappears from the preview monitor!
The rendered preview also omits layer 4, as soon as I turn off MPE, the timeline returns to red and layer 4 pops right back on the monitor!
Is this just a trial limitation of the MPE module, rather than restrict the 'extra' effect/layer to render-only you lose it altogether? This just seems a bit of a strange way to promote such an important feature, it certainly hasn't helped me decide on if/when to purchase, or perhaps it has?
Any more thoughts?
Thanks,
Dave.

How do I get home sharing to work between my Mac and a PC

I can see my families iTunes libraries on their PC's but I can't home share. The symbol I have by all of their libraries is a square with a music note in it. Between their PC's however they can share and their symbol is a house. It has to be something within the Mac not allowing me to share music. Any thoughts on settings within the Mac to allow the homesharing to happen?

File sharing permissions issue between Macbook Pro and iMac

Hi,
I'm having trouble sharing files to and from a Macbook Pro and iMac. Both are brand new, and connected via a firewire cable (Due to large file sizes)
I can share files between both computers no problem, but the files are set to 'Read only' by default once moved to the over device and can't be moved or renamed without requiring a password every single time.
Is there a way to totally share files without having to enter a password every time I want to move or rename it?
> File sharing is turned ON on both computers.
> Share files and folders using AFP is ticked
> Share files and folders using SMB is ticked also.
Thanks

Try disabling SMB File Sharing, & in the Sharing Pref Panes>Sharing>Options, see what users are listed.
Also, try logging into the other Mac with the Other Mac's username & PW, not using the name & PW of the one you're on.

Satellite P500-1D6 - Small bug between cover plate and screen.

Hi
I have a small bug (in Dutch: "donderbeestje") between the protective glass and the actual screen.
Where I bought the laptop they yell me that they can't do anything about it and this is not under warranty of Toshiba.
For me however, this should be under warranty of Toshiba.
The screen with it's upper layers should be firmly closed so that no foreign objects can come in between.
So, my question is if this is under warranty or if not, what can I do to get this thing out of there?
Kind regards,
Pascal.

Hey,
Regarding such hardware related problems you should contact an official authorized service provider. The guys can repair notebooks under warrant for free if its a warranty case. Furthermore they can give you an exact if its normal or hardware problem.
Here its only an user to user forum so nobody can give you an exact answer but a full list of all ASPs you can find here:

Font rendering difference between Acrobat 8 and Acobat 9

We received a PDF file that looks fine in Acrobat 8 and in Preview but when opened in Acrobat 9 the lower half of many fonts is cut off. We see the problem on multiple computers, Mac and PC with both Acrobat Pro 9 and Reader 9. Is there anything that can be done in Acrobat 9 to make the file readable or would it have to be fixed on the creator side? See below for a sample of the problem.

Can you check your Acrobat Preferences for both versions and see if they are set the same in the area of Page Display > Rendering?
Is "Use Local Fonts" turned on or off?
Does the PDF print OK?

Difference between Reader, Pro and Preview

I'm running Leopard 10.5.7 with Preview. I also have Acrobat Reader 9.1 and Acrobat Pro 9.2 installed. What is the difference between the 3 programs? My default when opening PDF's from Safari is Acrobat Pro. I can open PDF's just fine with Pro. But when I launch the Reader it asks me if I want to use that program as the default.
I also like the ability to use the built-in Preview function because it seems to use less resources (ram) than Acrobat Pro.
Can someone explain the difference of the 3 programs and what the advantages of one over the other are?
I create PDF's all the time with In Design and know that with Reader I can't save any changes to the PDF I can only print and read from them.
Do I even need Reader installed or is this overkill?

I would say it depends on what (if anything) you need to do when viewing the PDF files in one of those 3 applications.
Acrobat Pro: Provides useful tools in examining the document as well as making some basic corrections. These tools include Output Preview (color warnings, ink viewing, object inspector) and Preflight.
Preview: Has some limitations when viewing documents. Most notably, overprinting cannot be simulated but there may be others. Some transparency blending modes are displayed quite as expected either.
Reader: Lighter weight than Acrobat Pro, but I am not aware of any viewing limitations as compared with Acrobat Pro (and it does support simulating overprinting in viewing)

Conflict between Reader 10 and Acrobat 9 Pro, but Dreamweaver needs Acrobat?

I was trying to figure out why Adobe Reader 10 would not print a simple one-page PDF containing only text information distributed by the federal government. I found a message about this in Adobe's forums where the person was told they should not have Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and Adobe Reader 10 installed at the same time. Well, my understanding is that removing Acrobat Pro is dangerous, because when I installed Adobe Dreamweaver CS5, its installer said Acrobat 9 Pro had to be installed first before Dreamweaver CS5 would function. Does anyone understand this? Maybe I should remove Reader 10 instead, and just open and print PDFs with Acrobat? That's what worked with the government PDF I just mentioned.

To answer the DW side, DW does not need Acrobat to for anything as far as I know. Acrobat has installed before the rest of the suite (assuming you have the suite) because Acrobat was never a true part of the suite and is on a completely different lifecycle than the rest of the suite. Hence no CS 5.5 to include Acrobat X. And it is true what you have heard that you should not mix versions of Pro and Reader. Is there a reason you needed Acrobat X Reader on your machine? Was there actually a file out there that doesn't open in version 9?
If Acrobat is giving you trouble I would recommend uninstalling the Reader version of X and leave the pro version on. Due the time we are at out, I think it is unlikely that a point release of CS5 will be released and the integration of the suite with Acrobat X won't take place until Creative Suite 6 is released.

Is there a conflict between Reader XI and Acrobat being used on the same computer?

I downloaded the new Abode Reader XI. The computer in question has, also, Adobe Acrobat 7. Is there a conflict between them if used on the same computer? I can not open any PDFs and now the saved PDFs I had on the computer will not open and the icon shown on the desktop is gone. Please advise as I scan documents to this computer all the time and the person who needs to see them can not.

I have Acrobat 8.1.6 and Reader XI on Win XP. Do these conflict? Should I get rid of the newer Reader?
I'm having problems printing to the PDF print driver, locks up system, shows printer offline in spooler. I doubt problem is with driver itself because I can print a Test Page from it ok. But printing to Adobe PDF from Word & other apps locks up & never completes.
There's an Exclamation Point next to Acrotray in Explorer. (see image) What does this mean??
Have tried Repair install of Acrobat twice.
