SMARTFORM GUI_DOWNLOAD PDF error opening Adobe document

  • With OSX10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02 when I try to open a PDF downloaded from the web I get 'There was an error opening this document. This file is damaged and could not be repaired. Preview will not open either. Older PDFs OK.

    I am running OS X 10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02. In the last few days I have been unable to open PDF's downloaded from the web. Reader gives the error message 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired'. Removing Reader and trying to use Preview to open these files give the error 'Preview cannot open this file. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise' (or something like that). Downloading the same files with Reader removed from my Mac Preview opens the files OK.
    I was recently prompted to update Adobe software but did not note exactly what the update was nor when it was done.
    Reader and Preview will both open PDFs I downloaded a week ago. Reader will also open files downloaded on another Mac running OS X 10.0.0 and copied to my Mac. Any ideas?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • "There was an error opening this document" Adobe PostScript Driver creates corrupt PDF's.

    Hello,
    Just looking for a point in the right direction or some answers to a problem that has been plaguing a few of our users.
    We use Adobe reader X and Adobe Post Script driver as a means to print a document as a PDF.
    However, a few of our users are experiencing the problem where as the every so often a PDF created comes up with the "There was an error opening this document.  The file is damaged and could not be repaired." Message. these documents always vary in size but average around 20 - 30 kb, These seem to be complete anomolies and are corrupted from the off. The only solution we have found for this is a complete rebuild. But we have no idea what is causing this, as we are using the latest version of Adobe Reader. Also, a document that will print corrupted on one go, will print fine on the next.
    Thanks.

    Hi Lori,
    Thanks for your reply currently all users access these PDF's through the standalone reader and users on the most up to date version of Adobe Reader X are not using protected mode as we have had it turned off for a while to fix other problems.
    Thanks

  • Adobe pdf problem; the message comes up:- There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired.

    Dear all
    I have got  3 mac computers. 2011 13 inch air, 27 inch mac and 2010 pro. latest softwares. all of them have a problem in opening pdf files;esp older files. the error message comes up 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired.'
    I have reinstalled reader, checked software updates etc.
    Any help will be appreciated

    It isn't likely to be a problem with the software. You have two different applications which have no interaction between them, neither of which can open the same group of files on three different systems. It's possible that one application has a problem, but not both or that one system has a problem, but not all three. Typically if there were software corruption, it would not show as a failure to open a specific type of file, but in opening and running the application itself.
    I realise that that doesn't really help you since it doesn't resolve the poblem, but I think you need to start with a known-good pdf, preferably one you can download from an internet source, and see whether that opens. If it does, then it would confirm that the software is working properly.
    For a known-good PDF to download, try one of the manuals from the support site here.

  • Adobe Reader 11.0.06 "There was an error opening this document.  Access Denied"

    Windows 7 64-bit
    If I go into My Windows 7 Documents Library folder (which is redirected by Group Policy to a network share), I get "There was an error opening this document.  Access Denied".  If I then map a drive to the share, I can open the PDF without the error message.
    I've read a workaround for some time now for older versions has been to uncheck Enable Protected Mode at startup under Security (Enhanced) in Preferences.  I find this does work but this is probably not the best way to handle this situation.
    I've also read one person removed the desktop.ini on the desktop to resolve.
    Is there any official response from Adobe on this issue that I can be pointed too?  Are others still having this issue?
    We plan to update several thousand clients and I'd like resolve this issue before we do.

    We tried 11.0.05, 11.0.06 and 11.0.07 with the same result on different computers with different local Admin accounts.
    When we re-install 10.1.0 the issue is gone and Protected Mode is enabled.
    We then returned to 11.0.06 or 11.0.07
    I'm logged in with a local Admin account.
    I turned on Protected Mode Logging and captured what happens when I attempt to double click a pdf file in my Documents Library with 11.0.06 installed.  Access Denied.
    I then doubled clicked the file from a drive mapped to the same share and the file opened.

  • I'm having trouble accessing my pdf.  Error message:  "There was an error opening this document..."

    Hi
    I have been working on a pdf in Adobe Reader 9.3 on 2007 Microsoft Windows v5.1.  The pdf is set up as a form that I can enter data into.  Last time I worked on it I saved it, and then when I went to open it the next time I had the following error message:  "There was an error opening this document. There was a problem reading this document (14)."
    I have tried to recover the pdf by going to www.datanumen.com/apdf but when I try to repair the pdf I get another error message:  "Xml parsing error: not well formed (invalid token) (error code 4), line 12874, column 20 of file."  The second error message looks like the problem has been pinpointed but I don't know how to fix it.Could you please let me know if there is any way to recover this file?
    Thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction!!

    Thanks for the information.
    Could you please also let me know which version of Adobe Reader are you currently using. If you are not using Reader 9.4.6 (which is the latest version of Adobe Reader), can you try updating to the latest released version by
    1. Launching Adobe Reader
    2. Clicking on Help > Check for Updates
    3. When prompted click on Download followed by Install.
    This will update Reader to the latest version.
    Also, please verify if this issue that you are facing is with a specific PDF alone or is the issue happening with all PDFs that you are trying to print from Win7.

  • When I try to open up a PDF document, i get the following error message: "There was an error opening this document. The network path was not found" AArrgh please help as I need to open up my documents. Thanks.

    When I open up a PDF Document all i get is an error message saying: "There was an error opening this document. The network path was not found" I dont know how to fix this, so looking for some advice please, as I really need o open up my documents.
    Thank for any help.

    The documents I’m trying to read are already saved on my computer, under various different headings, I know that we have a server, so I only assume these documents are saved on here, as I said before I’m not good with all this techno stuff. I do my work each week ( on a payroll system) and save the documents for each company, they automatically go to the correct place. I never request for them to be saved in a certain place ( well not that I’m aware of) . I then on occasions need to open up this information, it is then that I can’t read or open the documents. We do have a tech help, but they are off sick until the 5th Jan, hence me trying to work out if I can fix this problem through this help site. Its ADOBE Reader that I’m trying to use.

  • Exporting PDF files from SSRS 2012 - "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired"

    Good day
    I have the situation where we are exporting PDF files from reporting services in our website. 
    When dividing the data into sections, the report exports perfectly, but when exporting the entire set and trying to open the file, we get the following error in Adobe Reader:
    "There was an error opening this document.  The file is damaged and could not be repaired"
    We tried to repair the file, no luck.  We tried to use different PDF readers, no luck
    We then checked the file sizes.  When exporting the subsections, each section exports a file of about 2mb. 
    When exporting the entire set, the file is about 1.3mb. 
    Adding all the sections together gives me a rough estimate of 40mb.
    Exporting to TIFF works beautifully and returns a file of 41.5mb. Word and Excel formats also work well, only issue there is the page numbering and formatting.
     The problem we have is the clients are adamant about having it in PDF format.
    Any advice please?

    This was one of the temporary suggestions I gave the client...
    Unfortunately they do not like this as the page numbering and formatting in Word does not appear right.  We are talking about over 1300 pages.  I can't expect them to change the formatting with each export.  Additionally,  the data is
    constantly changing and each client has their own data.  The clients export the reports randomly.  I therefore can't post the reports back onto the server.
    Thanks for the speedy response though

  • My PDFs with form fields get "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." on anothers computer, PC and MAC

    Im creating PDFs through InDesign and using Acrobat Pro 9 to add fields.  I save them to allow ADobe Reader people to use them.  Everything works fine on Pro and Reader on my end with a PC as well as someone elses PC.  But one person using Mac said some forms work and some dont.  Those that dont get the error "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired."  Ive resaved them and made sure they work and same problem.  There is nothing overly coplex about the PDFs either, a date field at the most.  They are using Reader 9.1.
    I found out the other day that one person who can open them adds info to them saves them and send over to that other person and cannot open any of them after they have been edited, same error.  He even tried on a PC and still gets it.
    I dont know what to do.  I know it has to be on his end and not mine.  What else can I suggest to him??

    It sounds like they are using an earlier version of Acrobat or Reader, though you said Reader 9.1. If you add some features in AA9 that are new, it appears that earlier versions see the new features as damaged files. At least that is my guess. Try using Reduce File Size or PDF Optimize to save to an earlier version and see if that helps. The other option is that you are getting them messed up in e-mail because many client look at PDF files as ascii and do not encrypt them. In that case force the encryption. You can also send them in ZIP form.

  • Error with Adobe Acrobat X "error opening the document. The file is damaged and could not recover"

    Good morning,
    I have a problem when generating PDF files with Adobe Acrobat X.
    When I give print a Word document 2003 ... 2007 ... 2010 ... and select a network drive to save the PDF file, I get the following error "error opening the document. Thefile is damaged and not could recover."
    The file is saved on your drive well ... but I always get this error.
    Any ideas???
    Thank you.

    First of all thanks for responding.
    The installed version of Adobe's Adobe OS X and Windows XP machines is thelatest patch level.
    The local system .... works well ... Open Office 2010 ... create a new Word document and save it locally ... and all good.
    The problem is though that same machine ... it enters network (not Windows network. OES2 is a network with Novell network client) ... and to open and create a new document to WORD .... when printing the PDF printer ... select a network drive... and when the document is saved well ... but it shows the error.
    I have an amount of hours lost with this ... I hope you can help me find a solution.
    Thank you very much.

I get the message 'There was an error opening this document. Access denied'. When I try to copy/paste the document I also get the message 'cannot copy accounting 3: access is denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and the file is not currently in use'. I resterated Windows but still get same message although new files I scan open nicely even if I rename and/or copy/paste. Thank you

  • Error Opening Adobe PDF Files

    Hi...
    I have suddenly had an error appear whe opening most PDF files - "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired."
    Subsequently I'm unble to open these files. I'm on a Mac platform with OS X 10.8 and am using Adobe Acrobat version 10.1.4.
    The files are mainly downloaded / saved to my desktop through Safari. These are PDF files that I've previously been able to open but all of a sudden can't.
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated! ...thanks!!

    Thanks for offering your assistance with this one mate... I appreciate it!
    As requested, this is the first part of one of the files that won't open, as seen in Text Edit:
    %PDF-1.3
    %‚„œ”

    stream
    The rest of it is prety much gobbly **** and ASCI stuff - the kind of stuff that get's me stumped!
    Just another discovery with this problem - I've discovered something interesting with my mobile phone bill, which I view as a PDF file in a safari window on my phone provider's website. I right clicked on the phone bill displayed in the Safari and used 'save as' to save a copy of this to my desktop so I could later open in Acrobat Pro and print, as I always do, however when I go to open that file from my desktop, the error occurs and can't open. HOWEVER - I discovered an option through the phone company website to open the file in 'Acrobat' within a Safari window, which I did. It adds Acrobat toolbar menu etc within the Safari screen and displays bill in PDF format as if in Acrobat. I then saved a copy of the file from this view on my desktop, and now That One I can Open! There is anoter distinct difference too - the unopenable files display on my desktop as the 'PDF icon' and the one of the phone bill that I can open displays as a 'Preview Icon' (as they all should).
    Hope this all makes sense and may point to something further?
    Once again - thanks for the help!

    Sounds like the files are corrupt. Time to restore them from a good backup.

  • There was an error opening this document. Adobe Reader XI

    Win Xp, Sp 3. When converting a word-dokument  with Acrobat Elements 7.05 the immediately opening in Adobe Reader XI fails with several of the "well known" messages "There was an error opening this document. File not found" and "There was an error opening this document. Access denied" (translated from Danish).
    The fix by setting this registry entry:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\Privileged]
    "bProtectedMode"=dword:00000000
    seems to help. But is that a sane solution?

    Hi P.Allan,
    By making the registry setting entry:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\Privileged]
    "bProtectedMode"=dword:00000000
    Reader will become unsecure.
    Please make it back to 00000001 to make Reader more secure.
    Also, please let me know the following:
    1) Is the converted PDF got saved?
    2) If yes, please let know the path where it get saved?
    3) If yes, can the converted PDF file be opened in ReaderXI from next time?
    Thanks
    Shakti
