The PDF Structure tab

after I launch the WorkBench (version 9.5), log in,
launch the Form Designer for the first time,
it always shows me the "PDF Structure" tab (along with the "Hierarchy", "Data View" and "Tab Order").
I can't get rid of it.
I can close it by clicking the "x", but it always comes back the next time I launch the WorkBench.
How do I get rid of that tab?
thanks

The PDF Maker tab missing from all MS office 365 programs. How do I get it back?

I have the 30 day trial version of MS office 365 and I upgraded my Adobe Actobat to a new Acrobat Std subscription. Why do I not have the PDF tab in the office applications? How do I get it?

Hi janineiej, I've moved you questions to the Creating, Editing & Exporting PDFs forum. An expert there should be able to give you the information that you're looking for.

When I have a pdf tab open, then I scroll in a different tab, it also scrolls the pdf file tab. Why does it do that?

I want to be able to scroll different tabs without changing the pdf page every time I use a different tab.

I think once I did not even see the page in my history

While opening a pdf file in new tab, the rest tab's mouse scroll not works until closing the pdf file tab

I have noticed this problem in ff5 too. Suggest me is it a bug my machine or it came with it. If this issue is real i can provide more detail how often/ on what stages it happens.

There's a Bug filed about that issue.

Adobe Acrobat aborts when using LiveCycle Designer PDF Preview tab.

Whenever I try to use the PDF preview tab in LiveCycle Designer, Adobe Acrobat aborts. I get the notice that "Adobe Acrobat 8.1 has encoutered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Yadda, yadda, yadda,....." .
The error signature is:

Please increase your Buffer memeory for appalications.
Before you go for a preview. try to kill the exisitign process of adobe reader.
We need to see hte size of the XDP being generated.
If it is over 20 0r 30 MB, we may need to bring it down to 2 - 4 MB.
Again if the problem still persists, Re install the acrobat and try.
Lastly, check if the same problem happens when you use a adobe reader 8.1.3 or 9.4 (stable versions).

InsertPage RaiseError: An incorrect structure was found in the PDF file

Hi,
I am trying to build a button script that will create a new document, copy (insert) from the first page of the open document, save it, then close it. I believe the part where it gets tricky -- and possibly not doable -- is that the original (source) document uses a template; full of form fields to possibly be spawned off as new pages.
Given the above, ideally the user of the form can click on the "save new page" button: it creates anj Inserted copy of the first form page, cleared of content if any has been entered, and not including any other pages that may have been spawned.
With the code I am using, it currently creates the copy of the page and it inserts it as the zeroeth page (ahead of a blank page I intend to add code later to delete) and saves it. However, there are a couple of problems that come up with this. First is the error code that opens in the debugger:
RaiseError: An incorrect structure was found in the PDF file
Doc.insertPages:29:AcroForm:Save New Form:Annot1:MouseUp:Action1
===> An incorrect structure was found in the PDF file
Despite the error it does still save the page (form copy) as mentioned above. However, if you try to start working with it, it lets you know that there are no form fields on the document (even though they are all there and seemingly functional).   When I look to edit the fields, it will then ask you if you want to try to recognize the fields. If I click on "yes", it says it was unable to, but then the form opens up with all of the field names perfectly matching the original. If I click on "no" it just opens the page with all of the fields perfectly matching again. So I feel like I am close to being able to do this!
I am using the following code to produce my results:
(In the JavaScript "app" folder, I have the following trusted functions:)
myTrustedMenu = app.trustedFunction(function(name)
    app.beginPriv();
    app.execMenuItem(name);
    app.endPriv();
myTrustedSaveAs = app.trustedFunction(function(doc, namePath)
    app.beginPriv();
    doc.saveAs(namePath);
    app.endPriv();
myTrustedNewDoc = app.trustedFunction(function()
    app.beginPriv();
    var doc = app.newDoc();
    app.endPriv();
    return doc;
myTrustedInsertPage = app.trustedFunction(function(doc, namePath)
    app.beginPriv();
    doc.insertPages ({
        nPage: -1,
        cPath: namePath,
        nStart: 0
    app.endPriv();
(On the "Save New Form" button, the following code is activated:)
// First split document path into an array
var aPathComps = this.path.split("/");
// Get File Name off end of array
var myFileName = aPathComps.pop();
var pathway = aPathComps.join("/");
var myDoc = myTrustedNewDoc();
myTrustedSaveAs(myDoc, pathway + "/test.pdf");
myTrustedInsertPage(myDoc, this.path);
//myDoc.resetForm();
//myDoc.closeDoc(true);
I apologize for the long post and I appreciate anyone who takes the time to look into this issue for me.
Thanks,
Mike

You nailed it TSN! Deleting the tags did the trick. Thank you so much for your help! Just an FYI for any of you fellow "noobs" that might be referencing this discussion, to open the "Tabs" view (in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI in my case) go to View > Show/Hide > Navigation Panels > Tags. I looked all over the place for that until I found a document that mentioned how to open it.
Thanks for pointing out specifically how to get here. Thanks to the all for this post!
I also encountered this error, "An incorrect structure was found in the PDF file" from my published MadCap Flare user guide. I am attempting to find a way to build a bridge between Flare and Google documents for corporate-wide collaboration. Thus far, it's a crazy challenge finding a way to produce gdocs from Flare output. Neither product makes this easy. The closest I can get is by publishing the Flare doc as a PDF... but then I must break that document down into 2mb chucks...which led me to this problem, after attempting to use the Adobe Acrobat splitting tool.
Question:
What is the root cause of these bad tags. There are a LOT of them! Is this a fault in the way MadCap Flare creates a PDF document?
Yes, deleting some of the tags will allow me to finally split a PDF document. Unfortunately, this error occurs in all my published PDF documents, thus preventing me from automating (scripting) this split and then conversion to Google Docs!
Thank you

I have problem when opening a pdf page, my mouse control is hijacked to that tab when im on other tab, i cant scroll or use the middle rollling button, i have to click at the pdf tab then my control over the mouse middle button is restored.

I think I have this problem even on earlier version. The thing is I set open link in new tab and not switch over to the opened tab. My habit is to open a pdf page in the background and let it load first. What happen is that when the pdf page finished loading ( i do not set to download it), it hijacks my middle mouse button control. When i scroll down or scroll up on my original tab, it wont scroll on the tab, but insttead it scrolls on the pdf tab. I have to click on the pdf tab, then i can use the scrolling function on other tabs back. As for when i opened several pdf tabs, it seems i have to click on the tab that just finished loading, that means several times until they all finish loading. It has been getting on my nerve lately. And all pdf trouble i search from google led to unable to open pdf, firefox hang or crash when opening a pdf and the likes.

core-el, i don't see the advantage of that or i can't figure out how i'm supposed to use it. for starters, i have to click the mouse in order to get "add bookmark here" to open, which is no different than clicking on the star in the location bar, or right-clicking on the page. there are also options in the bookmarks toolbar, but they all require clicking the mouse & holding down the right button, etc.
my goal is to use keystrokes only. typing on the keyboard, using both hands, using the space bar & my left pinky finger to tab over are all painless routines for me. as soon as i have to take my fingers off the keyboard & use the mouse, the pain begins.
as i said, in older versions of firefox, all i had to do to bookmark a page was click ctrl>d, then tab over & arrow down, when appropriate, to find the folder & add the bookmark. for me, as a touch-typist whose speed is between 60 & 80 wpm, this is lightning fast.
if i have this wrong, please correct me. i just see it as more mouse clicks that don't save me time or pain.

I like the feature of the PDF being opened on the new tab on firefox browser windows. But the newer version (3.6 or 4.0) will automatically open PDF in a pop up adobe apps. How do I keep the PDF open on the new tab as before? thank you

I like the feature of the PDF being opened on the new tab on firefox browser's windows. But the newer version (3.6 or 4.0) will automatically open PDF in a pop up adobe apps. How do I keep the PDF open on the new tab as before like the 3.5 ver.? I want the PDF opened in the new tab rather than in the Adobe's app's pop up window. Could you help?
thank you

Why is the PDF tab missing?

Hello!
I have created some PDF files and tagged them using the Document Properties dialog box of Acrobat X Pro (File> Properties). But when I view the properties of the file in Windows, I don't see these tags in the Details tab. Searching for help on the Adobe website I found a reference to a PDF tab. This tab is supposed to appear in the native file properties dialog of Windows. But I don't see this tab when I view the file properties of a PDF file. Why?
The only reason to tag a document, from my perspective, is to make it searchable. I want to be able to easily search and find my PDF files with given tags. But how do you do a system wide file search if the PDF tag information is not read or supported by Windows, and it's not added by the Adobe software? For the record, I am using Windows Vista.
You can also enter and read the data properties information from the desktop. Right-click the document in Windows Explorer, choose Properties, and click the PDF tab. Any information you type or edit in this dialog box also appears in the Document Properties Description when you open the file.
If I manage to get this feature enabled, will I be able to do a search for *.pdf in Windows Explorer and maybe select the tag invoice so that I will get all the PDF files that are tagged as invoice? Or will I need a dedicated document management system for this?

I give up!
I found this old thread. But it's just all too overwhelming for my taste. I have read it, but I don't know how relevant the information is anyway. I mean, come on, the thread is from 2009! How relevant is all of this in 2013 and now that Adobe has released Acrobat X Pro, and now even Acrobat XI Pro? And the Acrobat Reader is no longer Acrobat Reader, the name has changed to Adobe Reader.
Copy this and that, edit this and that registry key or string, take the DLL from the old version of the software and copy it to the directory of the new software... it's all redundant and silly! What are we... hacking now?
A simple feature like this should work out of the box! Period! I have given up on this completely. It is absolutely not worth my time. I have no intention to start messing around with DLL files, Windows registry keys, COM class objects, and what not. I'm not here to develop a new breed of the Adobe Acrobat product. I am only interested in using it to perform my daily tasks. If there are no simple ways to resolve the issue, well so be it. It should not be harder than giving simple help instructions, like giving some pointers such as "make sure you reinstall the software".
And for the record, yes, I have reinstalled Adobe Reader by downloading the latest version from Adobe website. After reboot I also ran the Updater for Adobe Acrobat X Pro, it found a new version, downloaded and installed it. All that to no avail. The problem still remains. I did not reinstall Adobe Acrobat X Pro because I don't want to. I have no intention to screw up a perfectly working system, program setup and configuration, just to get a simple function like this to work properly.
I don't know if this feature ever worked for me, or if it stoped working recently. Because I only started using this feature recently. But I'm pretty confident to say that it never worked. I look at my file properties every now and then, and I think I would have noticed a "PDF" tab appearing out of nowhere. I can tell something's different with a dialog window when there is a change like that. And I know I had the "PDF" tab back in Windows XP, so I'm not completely unfamiliar with it. I know what it is, but it's just isn't there anymore.
Also, in my experience, there is alwys some kind of conflict that arises between Acrobat Reader and Acrobat Pro. The moment you install them both, some PDF related features you previously had are lost. The most famous one is perhaps the preview handler in Outlook. It always seemed as if the Acrobat Reader was always better integrated into a Windows system than the Acrobat Pro version. The Acrobat Pro was and is still more productivity oriented, while the Acrobat Reader always made sure you had those previews in Outlook, and it also integrated well with Explorer or Windows Shell. Acrobat Pro always managed to somehow screw up that integration, and I mean it's beyond file type association. So it's best to not have them both (but things like preview is only available in the Reader version).
Adobe needs to make better software and then everything will be much easier. It seems to me that this "feature" has been deprecated by Adobe. So even though you might have the correct registry keys and DLL files onboard, they are not being used anyway.

On opening some pdfs in new tab, get a box labeled Adobe Acrobat with a ? in it. Right click on the link gets the pdf. What does the box and ? mean. Running W7, FF 10.0.2, Adobe Standard 9. Thanks

An Incorrect Structure is Found in the pdf File

After creating a form from a Word document, I am not able to use the extract feature. When I try to extract pages, I get the error message "an incorrect structure is found in the pdf file". Is there a way to fix this? I have tried creating the form multiple times and this problem persists. Thank you!

Hi,
We are not able to reproduce the issue at our end. Which version of Acrobat are you using? Is this a generic problem?
If possible, can you please share a file with us so that we can analyze the issue further?
Thanks!

Incorrect structure was found in the PDF message

I have a folder level javascript that creates a custom menu item which when clicked inserts a page at the end of the open document.
Sometimes when executed, a dialog box appears that says "An incorrect structure was found in the PDF file" but the page is inserted anyway.
We work with a lot of documents that have been scanned as a PDF. However, as I said it only occurs with some documents....
Is it just the way they have been scanned? Or is there an error in my script? Or perhaps another explanation?
Could I suppress that particular alert since the page is inserted anyway?
---edit----
I have just checked the script with Acrobat 7.0 and although I don't get the 'Incorrect structure was found in the PDF' message the javascript debugger appears with this message in the console:'Exception in line 19 of function anonymous, script folder-level:App:InsertSummaryPage.js' but once again the page is still inserted anyway.
Here is the javascript I am using to insert a page:
trustedNewDoc = app.trustedFunction(function ()
app.beginPriv(); // Explicitly raise privilege
this.insertPages({nPage:this.numPages-1, cPath:"/C/Program Files/Adobe/Acrobat 7.0/Acrobat/Javascripts/SummaryPage.pdf"});
app.endPriv();
app.addMenuItem({cName:"Insert Summary Page", cParent:"Tools", cExec:"trustedNewDoc()"});
Thanks

Larry – I did what you said and got the form to comply. I combined all the pages and suffered as the software bombed about every third or fourth move I made. For some reason, the form fields work like they should, but the text never goes into the order you want it to. I was having to move the text to the bottom and it would bomb every time I did. I would launch the software again and it would work for about 5 or 6 moves, but every time I moved the text to its proper place in the order, it bombs the program.
But your suggestion was the correct one.
I did get the message that some of the names were the same and I’ve had that happen before. I’ve gotten better at my naming convention. I’m hooked up to a network here and some times when they are doing whatever they do behind the scenes, I’ve had the software not cooperate or not perform optimally.
Our forms here were all built long ago, and the nature of them is to cram as much info onto a page as you can. It’s not uncommon to have 150 – 200 items per page. This makes compliance a real effort.
Thanks again for all your help.

The scroll function on my mousepad is disabled when viewing a pdf file in firefox version 5.0. The scroll works on the pdf, but not on the other tabs. When the pdf is closed, the scroll function returns to normal. Any ideas?!

Hey thanx for the help, it worked like a charm.
I think firefox changed the application lay out, as I used to be able to choose my PDF opener from the list at " Adobe Acrobat Forms Document' where I could choose Nitro-PDF reader, but it has now moved all the way to the bottom like you suggested to the obvious place of "Portable Document Format" section.
If someone didn't tell me , I wouldn't have scrolled all the way down to be able to find it... it really should be with all its cousins up the top...
Cheers again..

When a PDF is opened in a tab, my laptop's touchpad scroll stops working for other tabs. (But works perfectly fine on the pdf tab or with every tab after closing the pdf tab)

My touchpad scroll was not working many times after i installed firefox 6. But it works perfectly fine in other browsers at the same time.
After some playing around, i found that this problem occurs only when a pdf is open in some tab (The scrolling works in pdf's tab but not in other tabs). Once that particular tab is closed, the scrolling starts working properly.

Using similar scroll function on my netbook. To add to the above, I find that using scroll is actually causing the PDF to scroll rather than the tab I'm actually in.
Reader 9 is installed on my Win7 Starter.
