Time out for opening a PDF File

I would like to create a file that can only be opened for a small amount of time, say 1 day from the time it is first opened.
I would like to have a password on the file. I know how to do that. For example, I have a file that I send out on Feb 18, 2014 and is opened at 12:20 PM. I would like to set it so once it is opened, It can't be opened again after 1 day, or Feb 19, 2014 at 12:20 PM. Is this possible to set up?
Thanks,

DRM solutions are usually quite expensive, so I do not know whether they are applicable in your case. Adobe LifeCycle is one of them (http://www.adobe.com/manufacturing/resources/drm/). There are others. You can Google "Adobe PDF DRM" to find more.

How do I change my settings for opening a PDF file?

Currently I can't just OPEN a PDF file I must save it and then I can access it. It once got saved accidentally to automatically save instead of opening straight. In some cases though it cannot be viewed this way. How do change it to open straight?

To change from using the built-in PDF viewer to your PDF reader plugin:
From the Firefox menu choose Tools>Options
Select the Applications panel.
Find Portable Document Format (PDF) in the list and click on it to select it.
Click on the drop-down arrow in the Action column for the above entry and select Use PDF reader name (in Firefox).

Opening multiple pdf files

By clicking a submit button i'm calling a javascript in a jsp which uses "window.open" function and opens a jsp. In this jsp i call a function for opening a pdf file using
"document.location.href". in this i have specified the URL to open this pdf.
Now i want that if after this pdf is opened, i again chose some option and click the submit button and a second pdf to opened. But right now if i click the submit button the second time, the second pdf replaces the older one in the same wondow. I want that the second pdf to be opened in separate window.
Please help to get me some idea

It takes three tries to successfully open a PDF file in iBooks.

     This is regarding ipad2.
     When I click on "open in iBooks," the bookshelf opens up and right upper circular icon spins as if it's about to open file, but the it stops and reverts back to edit button without anything else happening. So I try a second time on the "open in iBooks" from the PDF page, and this time, the icon of the PDF file appears on the bookshelf but then disappears a few seconds after that. If I happen to click on the icon before the icon disappears, the PDF will open but then will also disappear same few seconds later and then iPad goes back to home page or it opens up the "books" bookshelf. So third times a charm--clicking on "open in iBooks" the third time will finally open up PDF file in iBooks and incorporate it into the library.
     Not sure if this is due (1) to size of my library--some 600+ PDFs, (2) recently upgraded to iBooks 2.1--can't remember if this started before or after. I also just upgraded to iOS 5.1 yesterday hoping and thinking this would resolve the issue but it hasn't. Anyone with any suggestions?

Hi Alan,
Sorry for the late response. i was busy with other work.
Through InputStream i can get the Remote remote resource by establishing the HttpURLConnection with the cookie information(that's how it can get credentials). But i don't know how to view the file using PDF_Renderer.
when i use the below code, it is working fine(i used PdfReader to read the InputStream ) but Sample.pdf is creating on the desktop of the system beacause of FileOutputStream which used as a parameter of PdfStamper.
// create a stamper that will copy the document to a new file named Sample.pdf
PdfStamper stamp = new PdfStamper(reader,
     new FileOutputStream("Sample.pdf"));
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler "+"Sample.pdf");
Please provide me some solution through PDF_Renderer. i checked the api, i didn't get any idea.
Thanks.

Every time I try to open a pdf file in firefox, it asks me to activate adobe acrobat. How do I stop this from happening?

I do activate acrobat, but it still comes up next time I need to open a pdf file. The same problem occurs when I use a quicktime file. I get the drop down to let me me allow every time but again , next time I want to use see or hear a quicktime file I get the same question. This is very annoying. I went into options and chose the file to use to open rather than having it ask me but that didn't solve the issue either.

You can check for problems with preferences.
Delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.

Firefox 3.6.10 crashes each time I try to open a PDF file? Any suggestions?

Each time I try to open a PDF file from any website, Firefox (3.6.10) crashes. No error messages--just closes abruptly. For add-ons, I've got Personas 1.6.1, United States English Dictionary 1.0.0, and WOT. I've got the Adobe Reader 9 and Foxit 3.3.1.0518. The crashes of Firefox occur with both PDF readers. I did go through the posted solutions for PFD related crashes in the FAQ section but those steps did not resolve the problem.

Does that only happen if you open the PDF files in the browser or also if you open the PDF files in the standalone program by disabling the plugin?

Have installed and uninstalled Adobe Acrobat XI Pro on my Dell desktop running Windows 7 Professional. Each time I try to open a PDF file, I receive ERROR: 16 message. Would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

I cannot view PDF in Firefox at the first time but once I manually open the PDF file from my local computer, I can view other PDF files via Firefox webbrowser

I install Adobe Acrobat 9 in my laptop which runs on windows 7. I use Firefox 3.6.8 and have the problem with the PDF file. The problem is I cannot open the PDF file in Firefox web browser at the first time I launch firefox. It shows a warning box without any message. Only OK button is shown so I can close it. However, if I manage to open the PDF file from my local computer by just using adobe acrobat itself then the PDF can be opened in the Firefox web browser. I followed the instruction on the mozilla help but nothing works for me. The problem still exists. I wonder if anyone have the same problem like me and know how to solve this. Thank you so much

Hi there!
I cannot help you, but I think we have a common problem: We got a system here running Vista SP1 with Acrobat 9 standard on it. When we open a pdf file it works normally, but when we open another pdf file, we see the first one in that second window.
Think that missing option to watch several files within a single window-thing messed up more than meets the eye ... but as we just purchased the 15 licenses, we have to use version 9.
I didn't find any clues on this problem, but I will post any new hints I get.

Opening a PDF file out of a project

Hello there,
I am trying to open a PDF in Adobe Reader out of a Captivate
Project. I decided to do this through a clickbox. This clickbox is
set up to open an URL or a file. I decided, it has to open a PDF.
When I click on that clickbox, it opens my PDF file. So far so
good. But the PDF is opened by the Reader-Plugin, which is ebedded
in the Internet Explorer. That was not my intention.
My Question is now, what do I have to do to let the PDF file
open in the stand alone Adobe Reader?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions,
Markus

Hi Markus
This is an issue that has been seen quite a bit in the web
world. If you were to Google the issue, you would also see it
exists for Microsoft Word too. Again, it's not something one may
configure easily. I do believe it stems from the File association
in Windows.
Yes, you may configure your Acrobat Reader so links to PDFs
from web pages open in the stand alone reader. But that's only
changing behavior for you. Not for others. How the PDF displays for
others is defined individually on their own PCs. My thoughts are
that if we could influence this behavior, what would stop a hacker
from influencing malicious behavior? And there, I believe, is the
rub.
Cheers... Rick

Every time I open a PDF file... I need to register

Every time I open a PDF file, I am asked to log in with my adobe ID and register the product. I have. I do. I have a monthly subscription to the cloud (plus had purchased acrobat something or other at one point).
How can I keep this small but annoying thing from happening?
Thanks for any help !

I am trying it on Adobe Acrobat Reader 9.2.1. Tried to fix Hex code, and also tried 'edit-preference-trust manager'. I focusing on Adobe registries but still couldn't fix the problem.

Doesn't open the PDF file (i.e. articles, books pages). It appears a black page. Thanks for help

Safari doesn't open the PDF file (articles, book page, etc). It appears a black page. Before that it was working perfectly. Thank for your help

Try this ...
Open a Finder window then from the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go.
If you see the: AdobePDFViewer plugin (or anything Adobe related) in the Internet Plug-Ins folder, move it to the trash.
Restart your Mac and try opening a PDF file.

I HATE my new MACBOOK PRO, it will not let me open any PDF files and I downloaded the ADOBE READER three freaking times and it keeps saying that all the files are corrupt or damaged. I would rather have my 2008 Dell at this point. what is wrong with this thing

Perhaps the PDF files are corrupted.
Hit the command key and spacebar, a blue Spotlight in the upper right hand corner appears, now type Preview and press return on the Preview program.
Now you can try opening the PDF's from the file menu and see what's going on.
If they are corrupted, perhaps they are trojans from your Windows PC or gotten from a bad location online.
Download the free ClamXav and run a scan on the possibly infected folder.
