Three Acrobat 9 trial issues

Hello!
Hoping Adobe's developer will perhaps read this too:
1. I installed Acrobat 9 Pro Trial in german on my Windows 7 system which had Indesign CS4 already. Before I only had the Reader. Now, when exporting a PDF from Indesign with option "Show PDF after export" activated, Indesign gives me an error that it can not show the PDF because of a messed up Acrobat installation. But no matter what program is assigned to show PDFs, Acrobat or the Reader, it does not work. Apart from that, double-clicking a PDF in Explorer of course opens the Reader.
2. I have to use the Windows font SimHei to export chinese text from Excel to PDF. In Excel, the font shows correctly, for example the degree symbol (°). When printing to a PDF printer (not Acrobat, 3rd party tool, worked fine before) and opening the PDF in the Reader, some characters like the degree symbol are not shown. If I open the PDF in Acrobat, use touch up text tool, place the cursor and type the ° manually, it does not show, only a space. Opening the properties of the text, Acrobat says it's SimHei.
I strongly suppose this is a problem of CJK support or any kind of font substitution by the Adobe.
This is SimHei in Excel, below in the other picture is SimHei in Acrobat.
3. Marking text with the mouse cursor in Acrobat (touch up text tool) looks very strange. See below:
Can anyone give any suggestions how to solve the font thing? This is most important to me right now.
Thanks in advance.
Addition: I've printed the same document from Excel with the Adobe PDF printer and then the font shows correct. But before I installed Acrobat, I have printed the document with the 3rd party tool a several times and it always was correct. Now I don't now if it's Windows 7 (moved from Xp recently), if it's the most recent version of the 3rd party tool or if it's the Acrobat installation. I'm still using trial, wanting to use Acrobat in the future in hop this can solve such issues forever.

Having Reader and Pro installed on the same Windows machine is not supported as it creates problems. Uninstall the one that you are not using, in this case I would say Reader, since you only have a 30 day trial. Just be sure you have all the information you need to reinstall Reader when your trial runs out, unless you decide to buy Pro.

Acrobat trial download seems to have stalled.

I am attempting to download Acrobat trial software. It is a major download and seems to be stalled with only 9 minutes to go. There doesn't appear to be a way to get it started again. My task manager says it is working What can I do?

Hi Dee_Canuck,
If you are stuck at the same point for quite sometime then please cancel and retry. You can end the task from task manager too.
If you face intermittent internet connectivity issues then it's better to use Adobe download Manager to download the software.
Alternatively you can try downloading from the direct download links available at : http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-acrobat-xi-pro-standard-reader-direct-download-links.html
But make sure you follow the important steps mentioned on the page before initiating the download.

Adobe Acrobat trial version installation suggeded somehow, but I cannot save a file I have changed from Word to PDF.

The installation of Acrobat trial version for 30 days seemed to succeed but after making a pdf file I could not save it into my own libraries on my computer. In the first case the system told that the trial time is over! How come? I had just installed it. Then I tried again, but now the system is requiring a "serial number". Then it said that I can find it there and there. I tried to log in there but it did not accept my password which I had just used. Ok. I changed the password and it was accepted by Adobe. But I never got any serial number anywhere. Then I tried to install Acrobat through another way. I have had Adobe Cloud and Premiere already for years. I tried to load Acrobat through there. I succeeded, but same problem again: "The trial time is 00 days". Then I also noticed that my old Adobe Reader has vanished somewhere. I could not open any pdf files I have received and opened before. I tried to re-install the Reader. No success because "the trial time is over" !!! What should I do? Maybe I can try to ask my friends to change the Word files into the pdf-versions but I need my Adobe Reader!

Hi, Ashish,
I do not understnd what means through CC package under exception folder. I
think I went to Google and found this page:
https://www.acrobat.com/en_us/free-trial-download.html . After the
installing, which seemed to be successful, I brought in a Word file and made
the exchange into pdf. It seemed to be ok, but I could not save it anywhere
into my own libraries or maps. The system told me that the trial time is
over (!). Then I went into my Abobe Creative Cloud because I have already
Premier Pro and Premeir Pro CC. Through the list overt there I tried to do
the installation again. I do not remember anymore what I got in the first
place, maybe it was the same Your trial time has 00 days or something like
that. Then I was asked to get the serial number I clicked the button but
the reply was the same Your trial time has 00 days, or maybe there was
some other demands before that. Impossible to remember anymore.
Then I also noticed that I dont have Adobe Reader anymore; I could not read
any pdf files I had before. Everytime jumps up the message Your trial time
has 00 days.
regards
Erkki

Hello, I have installed Reader, Adobe Acrobat, trial versions of Photoshop and Illustrator. Some more than once. They work for a few days at most then I am told to re-install. I cant look at any pdf file even though I can still see reader in my programs.

Unfortunately no, It says "Adobe not responding" as well when I try to open a pdf. It has done this a few times where I had to uninstall and reinstall. Also, Illustrator tells me to uninstall/reinstall as well.

InDesign Server CC2014 Trial issue

Hi,
I cannot start our InDesign Server CC 2014 (Windows Server 2008). I have installed the software and was logged with our Adobe ID and installation was successful without any error message. The installation manual states that “InDesign CC Server needs to be activated before it can be used. If the computer is online, activation is done automatically when you install.” However, I got an error message when I tried to launch InDesign Server: “Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit”.
Since I had previously installed InDesign Server CS6 on another machine, I tried to use the APTEE to start the trial. I used the CS6 one because I did not find any version for CC 2014, I finally got the message:
StartTrial Successful
Return Code = 0
but when I tried to launch again InDesign Server, I always get the Adobe InDesign Server is not properly licensed and will now quit message.
I also read this thread but did not find the solution Indesign Server CC Trial issues
Thanks for help!

We got the answer hereReturn code 6 when trying to activate trial of InDesignCC Server 2014

Satellite L350D-12M - acrobat reader issue

When i install acrobat reader to my laptop it takes over most of my files and stops all the other files from working.

Hi
To be honest I dont understand your acrobat reader issue.
In most cases acrobat installation should run smoothly without any problems.
If something went wring during the installation then remove the acrobat reader from the OS, then clean the windows and registry using the CCleaner and then try to install this software again
Bye

Issues downloading Acrobat Trial- please help!

Hi,
I've spent a couple of hours trying to do various things to download the Acrobat free trial, I'm going mad!
I have a Creative Cloud login and I have a monthly subscription for Photoshop.
When I try to download the trial through Creative Cloud it just automatically launches my Adobe App Manager but nothing happens- Acrobat is not there and it's not trying to download it.
I've also tried downloading the trial separately on Adobe.com- the ADA won't open- it's downloads as a grey box- like there's nothing there?
I've tried turning firewalls on and off.
Please help, I really need Acrobat to do my work today .

I am having the same issue on trying to install the assistant manager its grey/blank and nothing happens when I try to run the file, I also need acrobat for work, I went out and bought a hardcopy of the software ran me $478.00 dollars, Inside it is a redeemable code you need to type on adobe.com/go/getserial which then they will provide a serial number to install the disc, but when I do that I get a "You're all set"" you can download the program or redeem another code.....but theres no link to download nor is there a serial mumber!!!!!
I need help fast, I need this for work and now im $500 dollars in the hole with no program.....

Issues after purchasing CC Photographer, Adobe Acrobat Trial cannot uninstall

CC Photography version, downloaded CC Desktop to Windows 7 64Bit with Lightroom 4 already installed. Downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro Trial. All programs worked in Trial version. After i signed for membership the following isn't working: most critical - Acrobat is not compatible with Outlook 2003. Cannot use Word or Excel, had to fix Chrome Shockwave problem in Chrome Admin Editor. I CANNOT UNINSTALL ACROBAT however i have tried. Secondarily, I PSCC opens, but I cannot open any menu items, same in Lightroom. I have 4MG Ram and external HD. Need to uninstall Acrobat immediately. Thanks!
Trying to keep smiling

Thanks Jeff - Thought that is where i put it.. Getting further on my on.. at least i have PSCC working correctly now.

Dowload of Acrobat Trial - RoboHelp Trial Conflict

I downloaded a trial of RoboHelp, then tried to download a trial of Acrobat Pro. I received an error message from the installer that there was a higher version of product installed, Adobe PDF Creation Add On. This is from Robohelp I believe. Is there any way I can have a trial of RoboHelp and Acrobat at the same time? I'm considering a subscription to the Technical Communications suite, wanted to try out these two first. Thanks

Windows 7/Acrobat Activation Issue

Markgerlac- I had the same issue you did, and, unfortunately, your thread is locked. I do not believe this is a Windows 7 issue, but sloppy Adobe coding.
Apparently, if you install Creative Suite on a new box (I just build one over the weekend), and reinstall Creative Suite, you need to be sure that the first program you open is NOT ACROBAT PROFESSIONAL. If it is, the solution is to uninstall the suite, reinstall, and make sure that you open Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, etc, first.
I am an hour into the uninstall, after spending much time on the phone with a Mumbai tech support person who I don't think knows how to turn on a computer. FInally hung up, tried again, and got someone who seemed up on the topic.
I had a three day experience installing CS3, and no problem with the initial install of CS4. How silly of me to think Adobe actually cleaned up their install coding.

A few interesting twists, but this fix works.
Also, I should say that CS4 rocks with the new Intel eight quad chip and Windows 7. Unbelievable. Even had some Apple friends thinking about switching. I just wish Adobe would clean up its install code.
