Specify custom download path for PDF files in Reader 9 ?

Instead of having Adobe Reader 9 save downloaded PDF files in IE7's temporary internet files folder, I would like to save them in a different folder. Is there a setting to change this (registry or otherwise?)

That's only temporary storage, in some cases only for the duration
of that IE session. If you want to save the file to disk so it's
accessible later, right-click and save target as...
You can move the TIF folder to wherever you like using (in IE7)
Internet options > General > (Browsing history) Settings > Move
folder.

  • ? How do you change default for .pdf files from Reader 6 to reader 9

    I cannot change the default for .pdf files from reader 6 to reader 9. Also I cannot remove reader 6. I am running Vista

    Normally, completely removing old versions and reinstalling the latest version will reassociate all applicable extensions for the program, but it appears to have failed in your case.  There may be something else going on with your machine that is producing this behavior.  You probably need to investigate that.  But what you can do to make sure the defaults are correct is click on the start orb and select 'Default Programs.'  Then select 'Associate a file type or protocol with a program.'  From the list of file types, select each of the following in turn: acrobatsecuritysettings, fdf, pdf, pdfxml, pdx, xdp, and xfdf.  If its default program is not Adobe Reader, click on the Change Program button and select Acrobat Reader from the list (you may need to expand the lower section to display more programs than it initially provides).  If Adobe Reader does not show up in the list, you will have to browse for it.  It should be located in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 10\Reader\AcroRd32.exe or C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 10\Reader\AcroRd32.exe.
    This method is safer than manually editing the Root\Classes in the registry.

  • Downloading fonts for .pdf file

    In order to fill out a .pdf form which has descriptions in both Chinese and English I was directed to download the Asian fonts package and open the .msi file.  When I do, I get the message that the installation package could not be opened. "Contact vendor to verify that it is a valid Windows Installer Package."  I am running Windows 7 on a PC.  Since I'm not keyboarding any Chinese characters, I don't think I really need the package anyway, but I can't get past that point.
    Thanks

    I tried to open the file – that’s when I got the message about the Windows installer.

  • PDF download worked in FFox3 but not in 4. Do I have to wait for a new plug in for PDF files?

    I was downloading monthly statements from mutual fund firms. Firefox 4.0 worked fine with the T Rowe Price web site (they must not do anything tricky), but does not work with Fidelity. Firefox doesn't seem to recognize that what Fidelity is offering is really a PDF file. I tested the same action with my same computer and Safari as the browser which worked fine, and I tested the same action with my same computer and Firefox 3.6.16 and it, too, worked fine. Your help screen for PDF files suggest I download "Firefox PDF plugin extension" but when I get there, it says a version for FFox 4 is not available. I probably have that added to my 3.6.16 version and that's why it works there. So I guess I just have to use a different browser until that plugin is available. But it is another puzzle why TRowePrice makes it work with 4.0 and Fidelity doesn't.
    Do you have a better suggestion than "just wait" ?

    I have never herd of Verizon adding an additional account especially since new account required both a credit check and your signature. Anyway this is a customer to customer forum so I'm not sure how you expect other customers to help you.

  • The specified file or folder name is too long,the url path for all files and folders

    The specified file or folder name is too long,the url path for all files and folders must be 260 character or less
    can we increase this limit?
    MCTS,ITIL

    Hi,
    As I understand, you want to increase the length of URL path in SharePoint 2010.
    Per my knowledge, this limit cannot be increased. SharePoint limits URL length because all relative URL links are stored in the clear forms on the SharePoint content DB and often this links are used as primary keys to link one table with another. Fields
    which are used to store these links (for instance tp_DirName from the AllUserData table) allow storing only 256 characters.
    There are several ways that you can resolve or mitigate URL length problems in the SharePoint Server 2010 environment. The following list provides suggestions:
    1. Upgrade all the end-user browsers to Internet Explorer 8, which has a longer URL length limit.
    2. Use shorter names for sites, folders, and documents and control the depth of the site and folder structures to reduce the lengths of URLs.
    3. If possible or allowed, use ASCII names for sites, folders, and documents. This will avoid situations where the URL will be lengthened by being encoded.
    4. To reduce the risk that the SharePoint Server 2010 end-users will encounter problems because of URL length limitations, we recommend that you apply the following effective limits in the deployment:
    256 Unicode (UTF-16) Code units - the effective file path length limitation, including a domain/server name
    128 Unicode (UTF-16) Code units - the path component length limitation

  • How to create link for pdf file in discoverer worksheet

    Hi All,
    I would like to create a link for pdf file into discoverer report (worksheet).
    So that i can open linked pdf file using worksheet link.
    Can any one tell me about this?
    Thanks
    Ravi

    Hi,
    I think the best way to do this is to use a database directory so that you can access your pdf file as a bfile. Then create a mod_plsql procedure that sets the mime type and downloads the pdf file. You then create a calculation in the EUL then returns the URL to your mod_plsql procedure. You can then include this calculation as a hyperlink in your worksheet.
    It is not as difficult as it sounds. Please let me know if you need anymore details.

  • [GNOME], [Firefox] (still) defaults to GIMP for PDF files

    I've installed Arch Linux with GNOME twice this past year, on both i686 and x86-64 systems. Both times, I've installed GNOME with it's default PDF reader, Evince, as well as GIMP for image editing (of course). Firefox, regardless of my preferences in Nautilus, only gives me the option of opening PDF files in GIMP (as opposed to saving them). If I save the file and open it from the downloads window, it opens in GIMP, but if I download it and then open it directly in Nautilus, then it opens in Evince without any problems. Of course, I could work around this and simply add /usr/bin/evince to the list of programs for PDF files, but I would have to do this for every single user that I add before Firefox is reasonably usable for downloading PDFs.
    There was a thread on this a while ago, but it's closed now so I can't add to it. This is still a problem in 2011 and before I report this as a bug anywhere, we'd have to figure out the exact cause of the problem: is it GNOME, GIMP, Firefox, or something else entirely that causes this? How could I fix this so I don't have to use a messy workaround?
    Oh, also, after installing GIMP, it's treated as the default application for PDF files regardless of GNOME's default preferences. Evince is listed but GIMP "hijacks" it in a sense. This is fixable in Nautilus easily, but it shouldn't have to be a necessary step.

    I never knew that about GNOME. Mimeopen did fix the problem for me. Thanks very much!

    I dont know if this is what your talking about but..

    I mentioned that I tried this and it works fine, but I don't want to have to do that workaround on every single account I make. The workaround suggested, as I said, works well enough.
    So if I understand this correctly, this is a Firefox bug?

  • Firefox 17.0 for Mac OS X missing Preferences- Applications- Preview Doc (application/PDF) entry to set behavior for PDF files

    I want to set Firefox to automatically download or save a PDF without the panel coming up to ask me. However, when I go to Firefox->Preferences->Applications there is no entry for PDF files to set it to open or save the file without asking me (i.e., no Preview Document (application/PDF).
    I am using Firefox 17.0 with Mac OS X 10.6.8 using Intel Core 2 Duo

    I have .pdf associated with Preview. The issue is that in Firefox->Preferences-> Application tab does NOT contain an entry for Preview Document ((application/PDF) which is needed to do an association that will occur automatically every time Firefox encounters a doc of that type. (the application tab has Preview Document (image/<6 types>) but no entry for the PDF format.

  • Make Acrobat the default reader for pdf-files.

    Since some time (probably after I installed Mavericks) pdf-files are by default opened
    in Preview. To open them in Adobe Acrobat, I can right-click the pdf-file, choose Acrobat,
    and indicate that Acrobat should be the default reader for pdf-files.
    This works, and after logout and login, it does still work.
    But after a reboot, Preview is again the default reader.
    Also, if in Finder I right-click a pdf-file, and via Get Info I configure Acrobat
    to be the default reader for the specific file and all other pdf-files (by clicking
    Change All), this only works for the current session. After a reboot Preview again is the
    default.
    How can I make Acrobat Reader the default reader for pdf-files, and make this setting
    permanent?
    Where is this setting saved?
    Regards,
    Kees.

    I finally solved this, but I still don't understand how.
    To begin with I have 2 hard-drives in my iMac. The OS is on the primary HD, and data are on the secondary drive. My Home directory too is on this secondary HD.
    To check whether the location of the Home directory might be the problem, I copied the Home directory to the primary HD, changed the path in my profile, and did a reboot.
    The next step was to configure Adobe Acrobat as the default reader for pdf-files. To my surprise,  after rebooting, Acrobat still was the default reader for pdf-files.
    So it looks as if this problem has something to do with the location of the Home directory.
    The original Home directory was still present on the secondary  HD,  So the next step was to change in my profile the path to the Home directory again (pointing again to the original Home directory on the second HD), do a reboot and delete the copy of the Home directory on the primary HD.
    So now the situation was back to as it was before: the Home directory on the second HD.
    To my surprise now Acrobat still was the default reader for pdf-files.
    And I could also change the default reader to Preview, and back to Acrobat, and this setting was saved across reboots.
    I'm curious to what solved this problem, and where the setting of the default pdf-reader, or more general, the default application for file types, is stored.
    So I hope that someone who reads this, can shed some light on this.

  • How can I specify an area path for the work item created on build failure?

    In our department we are working with multiple build definitions for different parts of one Team project. We heavily use the Team Project feature. Teams are defined by area path nodes, so each team can only see it's area path. No one (except the admins)
    can see the root project node.
    When a build breaks, TFS generates a Bug. Unfortunately, this bug is assigned to the area path root node, so nobody can see the generated bug and act on it.
    We would prefer to specify the area path for the generated work item in the build definition (not template, but property of a build definition), as every build belongs exclusively to one team.
    I have found that you can populate fields of the generated work item by filling the "custom fields" of the "create work item" activity. But how do I set the area path as a parameter?

  • :-)  How can we change the default file path for Bank file ( dmee ) ?

    Hi All,
    We encounter a problem.
    Electronic bank file ( created after a F110 run ) are created, in an automatic way to the DIR_TEMP directory. ( On the SAP server )
    How can we change the default file path for Bank files ( dmee ) ?
    We'd like to specify another path.
    Thx for your help.
    Erwan

    Hello,
    Make sure that you have created the directory in transaction code AL11 with the help of basis consultants.
    You can link your PC directory to the application server.
    You can maintain the path whether your file needs to get saved in OBPM4 against your DMEE structure example GB_BACS etc.
    If you do not maintain any path in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to temporary directory. If you give the directory path name in OBPM4, then the file gets saved to that directory with numbers 0001, 0002, 0003 etc till it reaches 9999 and reset from the beginning.
    If you give the path as well as file name as ABCD, then the file gets generated to that directory folder with ABCD0001, ABCD0002, ABCD0003 etc. till it reaches ABCD9999 and reset from the beginning.
    Hope this solves your problem.
    Regards,
    Ravi

  • Is it possible to put adobe reader on my website for pdf file users ?

    Is it possible to put adobe reader on my website for pdf file users ?

    The point is that, like all licensed software, you need permission to redistribute it in any form. So the question is: is that permission granted? If you can find anywhere that grants it that's fine.
    Adobe used to give out such permission back in the days of Reader 1, 2, 3... but I believe it was long ago removed. There is a strong reason to do this today: third party redistributors aren't likely to be hot on updating to new versions etc. There is a more cynical view: Adobe would also lose such benefits as it might get from offering dubious "extras" with the download. Finally, and strongly - if anyone can distribute it, these days who can tell who has the real product and who has a malware impersonator?

  • Downloads window blank and nothing downloading -- only for PDFs?

    FF 25, Mac Mountain Lion.
    In the last week, PDFs have stopped downloading and Downloads window is blank. Have tried Safe Mode and clearing cache, as well as selectively disabling DownloadHelper add-on. Nothing has worked. Acrobat plug-in is not used, I've always had the PDFs opening in Acrobat itself.
    It appears to only affect PDFs.
    I have not reset FF because that's so invasive and labor-intensive. Any other solution before i resort to that (or switch to Chrome)?

    In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
    #Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
    #In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
    #In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
    #On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back soon.
