SharePoint 2010 - Opening a PDF Document in the client

Hello All,
One I'm sure I got working, but seems to have gone backwards.. I have a document library with many PDF documents, where they open them in Adobe Reader X (Client), not the browser.
I have all the normal bits, it's set to Permissive Browser Handling, etc.. Now, when I open my document on my Windows 7 machine, everything works as expected, it opens in the client, checks out/in, etc. When I open the same document on my Citrix desktop, it opens in the browser - and 'Edit Document' on the ribbon is greyed out.
Both desktops have Adobe Reader X, but one works and the other doesn't! Does anyone have any ideas??
Many thanks!
Dayna

The other option is to purchase OFFICE 2013, though I am not sure how well the import for WORD 2013 is as part of the MS engine.

Sometimes (but not always), when I try to open a pdf document from the US bankruptcy court website, I get a window asking if I want to use Adobe Acrobat. After I click "yes", I get a bland screen.

Hi.
Does this only open on that specific site?
In any case, you may want to:
- instruct Firefox to handle PDF files in a specific way by going into Tools > Options > Applications and selecting the option you want for the PDF files
- reinstall Adobe Reader and its Firefox plugin
- install another reader instead of Adobe Reader. I recommend Foxit Reader ( http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/reader/ ), since it's free, VERY light, VERY fast, safe and also has a Firefox plugin (make sure you don't have both Adobe Reader plugin and Foxit Reader plugin enabled/installed at the same time in Firefox)

How to open word&pdf document in the AplicationServer from Clients (Forms10

Hi,
How can in open MS Word & PDF files in the application server/any other PC in network, from the Client. I am using forms 10g.
Thanks in advance.

Hi ,
But it is not working. I think u mean the below code that I copied from the Webutil Document.
However, when you change this code to use CLIENT_OLE2 (using search-and-replace)
it doesn’t work.The following example is code which will convert to CLIENT_OLE2:
DECLARE
app CLIENT_OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
docs CLIENT_OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
doc CLIENT_OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
selection CLIENT_OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
args CLIENT_OLE2.LIST_TYPE;
BEGIN
-- create a new document
app := CLIENT_OLE2.CREATE_OBJ('Word.Application');
CLIENT_OLE2.SET_PROPERTY(app,'Visible',1);
docs := CLIENT_OLE2.GET_OBJ_PROPERTY(app, 'Documents');
doc := CLIENT_OLE2.INVOKE_OBJ(docs, 'add');
selection := CLIENT_OLE2.GET_OBJ_PROPERTY(app, 'Selection');

I get a partially transparent checkerboard pattern when I open some pdf documents in the Firefox browser..

If the document is saved and reopened with a pdf reader, pattern is absent. How can I get rid of this annoyance ?

Which viewer do you use to display the PDF file in Firefox?
Is that the PDF viewer extension ([https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/pdfjs/]) or the Abode Reader plugin or another extension?

Opening pdf document on the website

How do I open a pdf document on the website (wordpress) with acrobat reading. I need on this site [url deleted by host]

You need to have Adobe Reader installed to read pdf files. If that doesn't work, please describe the error message you get. But when posting please post your problem to the Adobe Reader forum. State the version of Reader, your OS, and your browser.

My firefox freezes when i open pdf document on the net

when ever I'm opening any pdf documents on the net freezes so I taught it was my acrobat reader. I have updated it but still cannot open.

Does this has anything to do with Adobe?

Adobe Reader Crashes while opening Secure PDF Documents

Hi,
I have Adobe Reader 8.1.2. Up until today, i was able to open secure PDF documents without any issue. Suddenly, it started to give me errors, saying "Adobe Reader has encountered a problem and it needs to close. I have to tell Microsoft" and so on...
I tried re-installing 8.1.0, secure documents opened a few times and then the same problem returned. I can open normal PDF documents but the problem is with the secure ones.
Rebooting, re-installing again didn't help.
What could be the issue and how to solve it? I have Trend Micro Antivirus s/w but i always had them all these days and everything was fine.
Thanks
anand

Hi,
Can someone help me on this please?
I have tried removing Adobe Reader, re-install it but doesn't help. Secure documents do open sometimes but fail again. I have even tried removing Adobe Reader using MSI Cleanup Utility, no use.
The problem seems to be in the imapdb.dll. An error report is generated by Windows XP but it is rather large to fit in here.
I also Trend Micro Anti-Virus tool and it may have something to do with it is what i feel.
Any help on how to solve this will be great.
Thanks

How do you permanently disable Tool Pane from showing up every time you open a pdf document in Adobe Reader DC 2015?

Just like 9.9/10 people out here in the real world, I use Adobe Reader to read pdf files and never (ever) use the Tool Pane for anything.
How do I permanently disable it from showing up, instead of having to close it *each & every time* I open a pdf document? The majority of people don't want thins thing covering up the page they are trying to read.

Okay, seems I've stumbled upon an ugly workaround but it works for me. I'm using Windows 8.1. Go to the install directory, i.e." C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\AcroApp\ENU". Create a new subfolder (I used "Disabled"). Move 3 files from the "ENU" folder into the new "Disabled" folder: AppCenter_R.aapp & Home.aapp & Viewer.aapp. Open a PDF and no more Tool Pane! I originally moved just the "Viewer" file but if you clicked on "Home" or "Tools" on the toolbar you couldn't go back to the "Document." Moving all 3 files takes care of that issue. Like a lot of people I don't and won't ever use any of the tools. I just want a reader. Let me know if this works for you.

Opening 2 PDF's with the same file name

I have someone who has difficulty opening two PDF's with the same file name. They had a file open, then try to open another PDF document with the same file name as the original document, however it will not open (and no error displays) and reverts back to the "old" document. Any ideas?

Are this diferent documents? What version of Adobe Reader?

When I open a pdf document from my dropbox to view it, the document shows up blank, even though it is filled out. This also happened with pdf documents that have been e-mailed to me.

When I open a pdf document from my dropbox to view it, the document appears blank, even though I know the information is actually there. This also has happened with pdf documents that have been e-mailed to me, then opened to view and they are blank?? Why are they showing up blank?

When I open emails with PDFs I click on the attachment (doing this all on my iPad) it gives me the option to "open in iBooks", I accept then after that the document is sucked into my iPad but I can't do anything with the PDF after that. Where is the actual file on my iPad? Why can't I email or send these PDFs to my cloud (Dropbox)?
It's like once they go into iBooks they're stuck forever.

After I do this, the "Convert To" box goes "gray" and I am unable to convert the document I have selected. It was working great for the first week that I used it, but now it doesn't give me the converting option. I am very frustrated as I have done nothing to change anything, and I was thinking this was so great...now I am just pulling out my hair and do not have the option of calling anyone since no phone numbers are listed. I am VERY busy and do not have time to sit and wait over a half an hour to "chat", which I tried to do yesterday. All I want to do is very simply, convert pdfs to Word. I have paid for this and am not getting any help. I am not very savvy when it comes to Adobe this program and Adobe that program...I feel I am being scammed as I do not get simple answers for something that appeared was going to be simple. You can't even call customer service to talk to someone live to help walk you through.

Hello Kathie,
Sorry for the inconvenience that has caused to you.
Please let me know if you have tried converting any other PDF to word with Reader.
Alos, please sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/" using your Adobe ID credentials. Click on 'ExportPDF' tab and upload the PDF that you want to convert to Word.
Let me know if this converts fine.
Hope to hear from you.
regards,
Anubha

I am having problems with the Preview application. When I try to use it to open a pdf document it gets hung-up and I have to select force quit to close it. Any ideas on how to resolve this problem? Thanks for any help

Can you open the Preview program without loading a file, like by itself?
If it doesn't load then I suspect a corrupt Preview preference file.
Deleting the System Preference or other .plist file
Can you open other files with Preview, like jpg's and images?
How about other PDFs? or is it just that one you have downloaded?

How to I stop the Preview Pane in Windows 7 retaining control when I open a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat (Reader is NOT installed)

I have the preview pane active when selecting PDF Documents. When I open a PDF document I am unable to save any changes. the error message I receive:
"The documents could not be saved. The file ma be read-only,or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different name of in a different folder"
The document is not read only and no other user has it open. If I turn the preview pane OFF there is no problem saving changes. I have also un-installed Adobe Reader.
Other programs (such as Excel, Word) do not experience the same problems as the PDF documents.
Does anyone have a solution?

Hi snoreaustralia,
It sounds like you just need to associate the PDF filename extension with Acrobat, rather than Preview. Please see this document from the Microsoft Help for instructions on choosing the default program for opening a particular file type (in your case, PDF): Change which programs Windows uses by default - Windows Help
Best,

Hi higi97,
How are you connected to the internet? Are you behind a particularly secure corporate firewall? Are you on Mac or Windows? Do you have any anti-malware software running on your machine that may be preventing applications other than your browser from connecting to the internet?
You may try to follow the steps below:
1.Close the Creative Cloud application.
2.Navigate to the OOBE folder.
Windows: [System drive]:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
Mac OS: /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE folder
3.Delete the opm.db file.
4.Launch Creative Cloud.
Let us know if that helps,
Regards,

When opening a pdf document in Adobe Reader the font of the original document is changed....It becomes a mix of the original font and a new different font. How can i fix this

When opening a pdf document in Adobe Reader the font of the original document is changed....It becomes a mix of the original font and a new different font. How can i fix this

This issue occurs with most of the PDFs that I open up. I am using the latest version of adobe reader on my windows based machine and it is a general PDF. I saw a similar post online stating that if you look at the fonts used in the document and it doesn't say (Embedded) next to it, then Adobe Reader will try to pull the font(s) from your computer and if it doesn't find that font then it will replace it which makes it look funny.
