Sticky notes in Acrobat Reader x

Unable to activate stcky notes to be able to use in Acrobat Reader X...
What needs to be done to make this happen?

For Reader X, sticky notes and highlighter type of annotations are by default available and can be added on any pdf unless that pdf is secured (or has some special permissions due to which commenting has been disabled.). If you wish to enable all the types of annotations then you need to do the following. Open the pdf in Acrobat (any version). Click Save As->Reader Extended Pdf->Enable Commenting and Measuring.
Hope that helps.
Thanks,

Sticky notes problem, Acrobat reader

Hello, I was unable to find an answer to this question in old discussions therefore I have to ask it.
I am preparing pdf file with multiple comments for print. On some pages I have more than one comment and I can't have them all open at the same time. As soon as I try to open second comment first one opened closes. Are there some settings that I can adjust to have multiple pop-ups open at the same time? Is there any limitation to the number of comments opened?
On additional note, this problem seems to be inconsistent: at some pages I can open 4 comments at the same time and at some other ones can't even open 2.
Thank you in advance for help.

Use the Comments List. Click the undock choice on the Comments List.
Select a comment in the List and the annotation on the PDF page will be given a highlighting effect around its boundaries.
Be well...

Printing Comments (Sticky Notes) in Adobe Reader 9

Hi,
I know this question has been asked several times before, but I haven't seen any resolution to this problem. Does anyone know if Adobe is working on a patch/ fix for this problem?
In any case, my question is this: how do I print comments (sticky notes) using Adobe Reader 9. The following are the responses I have already tried and that have not worked:
1. Select "Document and Markups" in the print menu. I have already tried this. It makes no difference. The document still prints without the comments.
2. Go to Edit > Preferences and choose the "Commenting" tab. There is no "Commenting" tab in Reader 9. You are probably thinking of Acrobat 9.
3. Edit the registry key. Too risky, and since we are working on the client's machine, this is not really an option.
Any other ideas? Thanks in advance!

Alas,
"Commenting" is not an available category in Adobe Reader's Preferences.

Why can I not install Acrobat Reader in a different drive / directory

why can I not install Acrobat Reader in a different drive / directory. I need to install this in a different drive. I prefer to keep the Os drive free of rubbish. Is there an option in an install to allow this to happen?

What is your operating system & version?
If you are on Windows, download the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ and click 'Change Destination Folder' and the first install panel.

Brighten Sticky Notes in Acrobat X?

Sorry if this has already been posted, but I couldn't find it.
I have Acrobat 9 on my desktop, and Acrobat X on a shared server, and use sticky notes to help mark sections of documents. These sticky notes are color-coded.
Sticky notes in Acrobat 9 are bright, primary colors, and are easily distinguishable when viewing them in "comments": it is easy to differentiate light blue from dark blue, red from pink, green from yellow, etc.
However, the same sticky notes when viewed in the "comment" view in Acrobat X interface all have a pastel hue to them, and it is very difficult to distinguish colors: what appears to be green may actually be blue, what appears to be pink may actually be red, etc.
Question: is there a way to "brighten" the color tone of the sticky notes in Acrobat X? They appear as bright primary colors when SELECTING the color of the sticky note in "properties," but when viewing them in "comments," especially when there are several sticky notes in a single document, they all just kind of blend together and it's very difficult to tell one shade from another.
Is there some kind of "classic" view, or a way to turn off the "pastel" effect of the sticky notes when viewed in the "comments" view?
Thanks!

URL works within Acrobat Standard and and not within Acrobat Reader...

Hello.
I faced a really strange thing today. I created a report PDF through Xcelsius. In this PDF, I have a Flash button which, when clicked, would link to an Excel (.xls) file within our LAN. The link works within Acrobat Standard 8.0 but not within Acrobat Reader 9.0. I have examined the preferences on both and they are identical (as far as I can see).
Details:
Software used: Xcelsius 2008 SP1
                       Acrobat Standard 8.0.0
Link address:   G:\Management\[sub-directory]\[sub-sub-directory]\[filename].xls
Any help at all will be welcomed and appreciated.
Thank you!

I am trying to open the .xls in Excel through a web browser.   There is no scripting to the link, simply a file:\\ address that would pull up the spreadsheet (with macros) in IE 7 and above.
Addendum: I uninstalled my Acrobat Reader 9.0 and installed Reader 8.2 and the link worked! Strange. I do, however, need it to work in 9.0 as there is a mix of Acrobat Reader versions within the hospital.

Sticky notes in Acrobat X default to off-the-page and extremely large

Hi!
I'm fighting an issue where sticky notes that I add to any PDF will always default to the far right (off of the screen) and they tend to be large (as in, the size of about 2 letter pages). Everytime I add a sticky note to a PDF I must zoom out such that I can see multiple pages on my screen in order to get to the corner of the sticky note and proceed to make it smaller. This is getting unbelievably tedious as I often review 100's of pages of PDF documents and make comments throughout. I've tried deleting all of my Acrobat folders in C:\Users\<me>\AppData but the problem persists. I did not have this issue in Acrobat 7.
I'm on Windows 7 Profession 64bit and am using Acrobat X Standard. I hope I do not need to reinstall acrobat as I will have to get IT invoved to do that.
Thanks for any help.

Adobe Clip Notes in Acrobat Reader Not Working

I am having an issue with acrobat reader not processing the clip notes correctly. In Acrobat Reader 9.1 the clip notes do not process and save with the time line. All notes are placed in one box and are not saved intividually with the time line code. The export option button is there but does not work. This is happening not only for my customer but for me as well using a computer with only Acrobat Reader installed.. (9.1)
So there seems to be an issue with Acrobat Reader and clip notes... It works fine on my system with Acrobat Pro installed but from my understaning, it should work with Acrobat Reader as well..
Any help would be appreciated.. I lost my connection to support.. I was on the phone and it went dead and no one has called back yet..
I am using all CS4 producst (Master Collection) So this is being exported to .pdf by Premier Pro CS4

I am having this problem with a slew of users as well. I have followed all of the steps in Adobe KB article 405461 and while one solution in this resolve the problem (using reader as a helper program instead of opening PDF files directly within the browser) with the error message it caused problems with other web applications that we use. Has anyone else figured out how to get Adobe reader to work within IE? I have to think there was something included in the last batch of Windows Updates because it was working fine prior to that.
Thanks.

Exported PDF looks beautiful in Pages and Preview not in Acrobat Reader

Hi, I need a little help. I created an eBrochure in Pages which looks beautiful. When I export it to PDF, it looks amazing in Preview but not in Adobe Acrobat Reader; pictures doesn't look so bright and shiny, they loom more opaque. Also fonts look kind of weird. I went to Photoshop and tried to do it there, it looks better in Acrobat Reader but texts don't print as nice as the Pages one (photos do). So my problem I guess is with the photos on Pages... What can I do to ensure that my document created in Pages and exported to PDF can have the same quality in the Reader as it has in Preview?
Photos are in JPEG format and have a decent resolution I guess:
File Size 1.4 MB
With: 1200 pixels
Height: 1800 pixels
Resolution: 300 pixels/ inch
Pixel Dimensions: 6.18M
Pages computer is a MBA, 1.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, OS X 10.5.7, Pages '09 4.0.2
Thanks.

As far as I know, there is no provision for such settings in these programs.
Developer documentation for ICC colour management in Firefox 2, Firefox 3 and Firefox 3.5, see below. Firefox 3 has ICC colour management disabled by default. Firefox 3.5 has ICC colour management for images within which there is embedded an ICC source colour space profile. It is possible to set Firefox to colour manage the application windows as well as images with embedded ICC profiles. The developer documentation discusses how to do this in what sounds suspiciously like a command line / terminal tool, and also how to point Firefox 3.5 to the display profile. This in turn sounds suspiciously like Firefox 3.5 is unable to talk to the system level service and ask for the display profile automatically.
Camino and Opera ... I'll pass. I suspect it's more of the same mess.

Whatever answer will be given: Use a Limiter when doing a mixdown and exporting. Going over 0db is never a good idea with digital equipment.

Link works in Acrobat Std 8.0, Acrobat Reader 8.2, but not in Reader 9.0

Hi. I also posted this in the Acrobat site:. Perhaps this might be a more appropriate location?
Hello.

Any help at all will be welcomed and appreciated.
Thank you!
--- Update ---
I later uninstalled Reader 9.0 and reinstalled Reader 8.2 and the link worked in Reader 8.2. The link is a direct address and not a script. The file is opened in IE 7 as a spreadsheet with Macros attached. It is important for me that it works in both versions of Reader as there are several versions of Acrobat Reader deployed among our hospital -- Reader 7, 8, and 9.
Can someone help shed some light on this, please?

I think this is related to this other problem: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/567165?tstart=-1 . This has appeared with current releases of Acrobat, Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader. Adobe seems unresponsive. We started seeing it this week in conjunction with Excelsius 4.5. I have both Acrobat Pro 9.3 and Acrobat Reader 8 on my PC. Pro blows up when I open the .pdf created by Excelsius, but Reader does fine.

Hyperlink that contains backslash is not working in Acrobat Reader 8 and 9

Hi,
Does anyone know why a hyperlink that contains backslash is not working in Acrobat reader 8 and 9?
I created a document in Indesign CS and it contains hyperlinks that open up files from network drive so they contain backslash (for example: c:\foder\forder\filename.jpg). All the hyperlinks work in Acrobat Reader 6 but not in Acrobat Reader 8 or 9.
Anybody could share the solution would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Did you ever figure this out? I am also having problems with the "No Hand" javascript which turns off the (not very helpful) page-forward hand icon (a hand symbol with a down arrow) which confuses our users when in fullscreen mode. We create interactive PDFs and everything worked fine up to Acrobat X/Reader X. Now in XI it doesn't allow the internal link icon (pointing finger) nor weblink icon (pointing finger with W) to appear. It just remains a plain o’ hand icon no matter what you mouse over even though there are links present.

Acrobat Reader can not print to Xerox on Snow Leopard

I have a specific problem with Acrobat Reader. I can print PDFs with Preview, but not with Acrobat Reader to our Xerox printers. (Xerox Workcentre 7328)
It seems similar problems exist: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2155025 (that thread is however archived)
As I have the default file system, the solutions in that thread are not applicable.
Acrobat Reader version 9.3.1
Snow Leopard 10.6.2
Preview, Word, OpenOffice, and others print without a hitch. It's just Acrobat Reader that refuses to print, even though the print queue tool gets activated and everything seems normal there. I can't see if there are any errors on the printer itself.

Getting warmer...
So why do you need to use Acrobat? Acrobat for OS X is full of bugs and security issues...there is no reason to use Acrobat over Preview.

Acrobat Reader X security, comments disable

Hello, we need to work with Acrobat Reader X. We generate a pdf from a doc file and we add security to disable printing and we enable commenting, but when we open it with Acrobat Reader X we see that printing is disabled, but commenting is disable too. ¿It's a bug from Acrobat Reader X? we know that Acrobat Reader XI resolve it but we can't see in realease notes.

We add security from java with itext library. Wirth user and password:
PdfStamper stamp = new PdfStamper(reader, out);
stamp.setEncryption("".getBytes(),"PASSWORD".getBytes(), (PdfWriter.ALLOW_MODIFY_ANNOTATIONS), true);
If we put "stamp.setEncryption("".getBytes(),"PASSWORD".getBytes(), (PdfWriter.ALLOW_PRINTING), true);" we can see PRINTING enable but it we put " stamp.setEncryption("".getBytes(),"PASSWORD".getBytes(), (PdfWriter.ALLOW_MODIFY_ANNOTATIONS), true);" is always disabled.
We use Acrobat Reader 10.1.3 .
I read some discussions like http://blogs.adobe.com/vikrant/2010/12/can-i-comment-on-pdfs-using-the-free-adobe-reader/ but i need an oficial release note where we can read the bug.
ACROBAT X.
ACROBAT XI.
I know that with Acrobat 11.0 the problem is resolved, I tried with 10.1.4, 10.1.5, 10.1.6, 10.1.7, 10.1.8 and 10.1.9. I can't find the list of release notes of Acrobat Reader 11.0.
