Text blocked out with adobe reader 9.20. Need help PLEASE!?!

   Whenever I open a PDF much of the text is blocked out.  Can anyone please help?

Can you describe what you mean by "blocked out"? Is it a gray box where the text should be or is it something else? If it IS a gray box, are you sure it is text and not an image? Does it happen with a few particular PDF's or does it happen in all of them?

    I have tried to open the documents with Reader 8.1.3 and this works fine, but i need to open the documents with Reader 9.1.0 because this is a customer preference to open the document with the newer version!
    Sorry for my english but i hope my problem is understandable :-)
    Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
    kind regards

    I have a similar problem. I am writing a program to read the class names from database and instantiate several classes which extends from ServiceThread (an abstract class extending from Thread).
    rs = pStmt.executeQuery();
    while(rs.next()) {
    String threadclassname = rs.getString("classname").trim();
    try{
    ServiceThread threadinstance = (ServiceThread)Class.forName(threadclassname).newInstance();
    }catch ...
    So far, only the first class is ever instantiated and runs fine. But subsequent classes do not even get pass the "... ... Class.forName(...).newInstance();" line.
    Funny thing is that there are also no exceptions. The JVM just seem to hang there.

  • Unable to Print with Adobe Reader....HELP

    When I go to print the dialog box comes up, I select Print and then the Save As box comes up and tries to save in a different format and am unable to print.

    That worked.  Thank you very much. 

  • Unwanted Stage Rotation with Adobe CameraUI example on iPad2 - HELP PLEASE!

    Hi all!
    I'm working on a puzzle game for the iPad 2.  I'm using the Adoble example that is layout here:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/media/CameraUI.ht ml
    Everything is working fine execpt for when the navive camera app shuts down, either by "use" for a photo or "cancel" the stage of my app is rotating 90deg counter-clowise WITHOUT firing a StageOrientationEvent.ORIENTATION_CHANGE event.  If I turn the ipad after this strange happening the StageOrientationEvent.ORIENTATION_CHANGE does fire and everything is adjusted normaolly per my "adjustLayout" function that is nomally called when a StageOrientationEvent.ORIENTATION_CHANGE event fires.
    Can someone verify this is the case?  I'm currious to find out if this is an adobe or apple bug, and more importantly is there a work around for this?
    THANKS!

    I have some more info...
    The when the ipad camera app launches it will not adjust for orientation.
    The behavior I described does not happen if the ipad2 is held in portatriat mode with the home button on the bottom.
    Also I'm currently running air 2.6 and ios 4.3.3.  I'm going to try air 2.7 and ios5 beta soon and see if it makes a difference.
    Can someone else verify this and any possible fixes?
    Thanks!

  • Having trouble with a audio file. Need help please!

    Hello. 
    This may sound funny and not to related to any of this at first, but if anyone here knows about the game portal, then they know about the ARG that went on during last week and may even still be continuing. None of thats really important but if anyone cares to know, basically VALVe released a new update with 30 new sounds, 26 of them moarse code/sstv pictures. 3 of them called dinosaur_fizzle 1 2 and 3. Infact, each one was named dino_1 dino_2 and so on. 
    The main sound that no ones been able to crack is called Dinosaur_noise. Its obvious there are voices in it and its some sort of major clue, this file is way out of league with the other ones. No ones solved it 100% or cleaned it enough to make basically anything audible.
    Now this started March 1st. Since then i have worked hours on the audio file. I have gotten close, but not close enough.
    Thats why im turning to someone here, that can do a through analysis of the audio that adobe or reaper just cannot do.
    In the attachments is the original file itself with no editing what so ever.
    Heres some collected data. 
    Frequencies of interest
    An analysis was undertaken to find the strongest frequencies acting within "dinosaur_noise". Linear and Logarithmic curves showed sets of dominant figures, with the most being:
    Frequency (Hz)
    Comments
    9092
    Largest spike before silence
    7862
    Very faint
    7812
    Very faint
    7657
    Very faint
    7502
    Largest spike in the 4000-9000Hz band
    3502
    various noise between 3502 and 3510
    360
    Another very visible wave. This was the most pronounced visible wave in the Logarithmic scale
    35
    The most dominant low frequency wave
    There are a few standout segments, not of voice data underneath, but visible clicks or something happening about 5 times. These could be indications of splices or other manipulations going on. The largest noticed broad-spectrum spikes were:
    Time(in samples)
    Comments
    55402
    First broad spike
    422931
    Second broad spike
    751643
    Third broad spike
    1081537
    Fourth broad spike
    1110841
    Fifth broad spike
    Silence in the frequency ranges is located in the band of 10.567 - 15.337 KHz. All frequencies above that are likely to be high frequency poinoning from the FFT process. 
    Heres what i know personally.
    -Noise reduction makes it a lot worse and adds strange harmonics and artifacts.
    -Most filters do the same.
    -Clear voice around 15 that says THATS AMAZING.
    If anyone cares to help I would appreciate it so much.
    Here are some links that might help.

    LabVIEW has a sound and vibration toolkit.  Do you have that?  Do you have LabVIEW?
    The forum is made up of volunteers who will help others with their LabVIEW problems.  But you need to have a specific problem and ask clear questions.
    What you are asking for is very unclear.  Why do you even want to do a "thorough analysis of the audio"?  No one is going to do your project for you.

  • Error adobe digital content bundler need help please

    Hi I have been working on a project using adobe digital content bundler beta version and have an error message that is preventing the finalisation of publication. "Internal communication error. For more information, see ErrorLog.txt in the application storage directory". On the forums it appears a solution was provided but I cannot locate the thread where it was written. Any help would be most appreciated. When I open the error log file it says ERROR UKNOWN PRODUCT

    Hi,
    Digital Publishing Suite is no longer on Adobe Labs.  If you are using the tools that were provided through the public prerelease, they are likely out of date and you are recommended to try the content bundler provided within InDesign CS5.5.  Others may be able to provide you with more support in the dps forum.

  • Adobe Media Encoder Fail - need help please

    I keep getting a failed error when trying to use Adobe Media Encoder. 
    I open up my premiere project and select the comp I want.  I switch the format to Quicktime, select h.264 from preset.  Hit the start button and I get the failed sound/icon.
    2 questions:
    1. My comp is 1920x1080 but when I go in it automatically has it as 720... why is it not recognizing the comp size?
    2. Is there a way to fix this error?  It seems to export occassionally to my C drive (which is not raid) but it fails to my F drive (Raid 10).  But usually if I export as a wmv or something smaller it exports fine to F.

    Sorry it took so long to get back to you I had to go out of town.  Error message doesn't say anything to me... maybe to you.  I'm not really sure what to set for "Field Type" so I just leave it at Lower.  Not sure if I should set it to higher or progressive instead.

  • Form is filled on iPad then emailed.  If form is opened with Adobe Reader all text is visible, but if opened with Acrobat XI no text is visible.

    Form filled on ipad.  When opened with Adobe Reader all text is visible, but if opened with Acrobat XI no text is visible- form is blank.   Have been using this system for months with  no problems.

    That suggestion makes sense and likely works, but only if the user is on a machine that will allow them to use Reader. I'm sending this out to a lot of teachers, who are using machines either at school, or are school-issued machines, and they don't have the admin privileges to install software-- even Reader.
    so my problem is, if they are stuck on a machine without Reader, and without the possibility of having Reader... it's just not going to work because Preview can't handle these functions.
    And, since that is not an acceptable answer with what I'm trying to do... I will find another way to create/submit forms. I think there are some online possibilities I will have to make work.
    very, very disappointing and frustrating.

    Hello,
    How can I give a answer back in the discussion on Adobe.com?
    I don’t see any link?
    1.      We have a subscription.
    2.      Im converting a newsletter from the web to PDF.
    3.      Sometimes I put a weblink behind the image in the newsletter. Most of the time PDF wont take the links behind the image.
    Only the tekstlinks are OK.

  • "out of memeory" error with Adobe Reader x & IE8

    Hello,
    Getting an "out of memory" error with Adobe Reader X & IE8. This is a locked down bank environment so upgrading to a higher version of Adobe is out of the question.
    I looked around on the web and noticed that many people are experiencing this "out of memory error" but no fix has been provided.
    Can you help?

    Thanks for the reply and suggestion - unfortunately, I get this error when I open Adobe Reader X itself in addition to launching a pdf within IE9 (my OS is Win7x64 Ultimate).  I can launch Adobe Reader X, but when I open any kind of PDF file (local copy, remote, web, etc...) the error dialog box pops up.  Everything seems functional with Reader, it's just a frustrating (er, irritating!) thing!  I think after the weekend I will 'give up' and remove the Reader X and go back to my 'old' (but functioning!) Reader - thanks for the comment and suggestion tho!

  • How to highlight text with Adobe Reader XI?

    Thanks. The PDF file was made from a web site article and I guess this is the same as scanned as I cannot highlight.  The cursor changes but cannot highlight what I want.
    I was able to add text and I did this in Red and will ask the VA to read under the sections marked in Red.
