Troubleshoot pdf adobe reader file to convert to doc and save to disk

I unfortunately have major issues with pdf files. I am not even certain how or why I am no longer able to use postscripts to view online pdf files which then enabled me to save as either a word docx or as in pages or in excell on my computer. Because many websites require adobe reader to view pdf files I downloader the adobe reader 11.0.04. Since then all online / htlm files can not be saved accordingly. In addition when I create a word, excell or page file and want to save it as a pdf on computer drive it only allows it to be saved to adobe online pdf.
I never signed up to have adobe save pdf files online. I do not have share file options or any type of online subscriptions. I checked my system preferences and do not have cloud documents checked off.
I want to find out is it possible to view, convert and save online web archieve and other pdf files without adobe. If so what and how. 
What is the equivilant of a pdf converter app which I thought I had on my Mac. FYI using Mac book pro OS 10.8.5 not ready to go to 10.9.
I use Safari 80% of time and Firefox the rest of time but only when websites work with Safari.
If I were to eliminate adobe reader pdf plug in but wanted current disk saved files to open a pdf version what would happen? I admit I feel a bit behind in understanding pdf and webarchieve mechanics but am willing to learn. So if anyone can give me online learining tutorials that not only explain how but also provide video practice I would appreciate it.

Another option is Sirvisetti AutoMail Desktop Connector (part of Sirvisetti AutoStream family of products) that allows you to convert any document to PDF and automatically launches your default e-mail client with the document attached. You just need to add To/Cc/Bcc, type in the subject and message body and click send!
You can request for a demo at http://www.sirvisetti.com
Hope it helps!

  • Printing Adobe Reader files with a DeskJet 6540 and OS X.6

    Ever since I upgraded to Mac OS X.6, I've had problems printing .pdf files.  No matter what I teil the printer, it only prints one copy of one page of the document.  I've upgraded to Adobe Reader 9.2.0.  Is this a driver problem?  OS X.6 is supposed to take care of that.  Adobe Reader is the only software that causes this problem, and of course Adobe does not provide support.  Any ideas?

    Hi There...I'm having the same problem, although I'm using XP Pro with Service Pack 3 and an OfficeJet 6500 , e709n ...and
    it was working until this past couple of weeks.  I can't print ANY PDF, doesn't matter if it's old or new...  If I "do" a preview, all I see is a line of print across the top of the page.
    Anything else will print other than PDF's, so of course it's driving me nuts! I've even reinstalled the driver for the printer; but it didn't make any difference except for my time and frustration. I hope someone can give us an answer soon...there are important docs I need to print out.

  • Adobe Reader X:Recurring issues with print and save requiring reinstalls

    One of our staff has recurring issues with PDF print, view, save.  These issue are temporarily resolved by re-installing the Reader from the Adobe website.  No error messages are displayed - the functions just cease to work.  In the most recent iteration of the issue a document attached to an email could be saved (right mouse click, save as) within the email program but not within the Reader itself. 
    It appears that Reader is getting corrupted - but by what?  This individual does a lot of downloading of web published PDFs - a possible source but one I can't confirm. 
    Information on a permanent resolution or known cause would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks v much Twilight - once I had posted the question I saw the same issues were posted by another.
    I'll try the print as image under the advanced print tab and see how I get on with that. Hopefully Adobe will bring out a fix soon.
    Thanks again.

  • How can I transfer an adobe reader file to Microsoft word?

    I have Windows Vista on my machine. I really need to transfer an Adobe reader file into Microsoft word or at least be able to type inside of Adobe. Just wondering how can I do this task or am I just not able to?
    Any help or suggestions out there..?

    That would require using Adobe Acrobat. It can create Word docs from PDF's.
    The bad news is, most of the time it doesn't do a very good job at it.
    With Acrobat, you could also add form fields that you can fill in which would be much better.

    We are trying to implement a process so that any document that needs to be printed through our Java application will be printed as PDF using Adobe Reader. For which, We created and execute the below command line to call Adobe Reader and print the PDF on a printer."C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /T "\\<Application Server>\Report\<TEST.PDF>" "<Printer Name>". Current Situation: The above command line parameter when executed is working as expected in a User's Workspace. When executed in a command line on the Application Server is working as expected. But, the same is not working while executing it from Deployed environment.Software being used: 1. Adobe 11.0 enterprise version. 2. Webshpere Application Server 8.5.5.2. Please let us know if there is a way to enable trace logs in Adobe Reader to further diagnose this issue.

    This is the Acrobat.com forum.  Your question will have a much better chance being addressed in the Acrobat SDK forum.

  • How to open Adobe Reader file from another native IOS application?

    There is an existing thread, but I want to re-open it because I think this is an important feature that we need badly.  I was wondering if there is any plan to add this feature so we can open PDFs directly into Adobe from the web / other apps.
    How to open Adobe Reader file from another native IOS application?
    Basically, we just want to use a custom URL scheme to open a specific document in the App.  Currently, this only opens the app but does not load the file.
    APB

    Not to hijack the conversation but I can explain why this would be useful for both the above case and another.
    What I believe Pavel is talking about is setting up a "URL Scheme" for the Adobe Acrobat iOS application so that you can easily open a PDF specifically in Adobe Acrobat iOS from other native applications and even from web applications opened within Safari. This is particularly useful if your application requires some of the specific features in Adobe Reader iOS to grant them the best experience possible and you want to encourage this.
    Another case: If you're using Adobe Livecycle's document security modules (that encrypts PDF files so that Adobe Acrobat must "phone home" to decrypt and view the document), these PDF's can only be viewed inside the Adobe Acrobat application and appear as blank in most other PDF readers. Having a URL scheme allows your application utilising this functionality to have a 1 click step to view the PDF rather than the current non-user friendly process:
    - Within Safari, touch the PDF link (appears as blank in the default Safari PDF reader, which in itself is confusing)
      - Touch "Open in..."
      - Touch "Adobe Acrobat"
    We have an immediate need for this functionality for the example above. I can resubmit it in a separate post if necessary.

    Hi, I was working on a PDF writing comments using Adobe Reader on a Mac.  I clicked save and got a 'cannot save' message.  I then clicked save as instead, Reader froze and my PDF disappeared.  The only version saved has only my first comment.  Does Adobe Reader save to temporary files that I can access in order to recover my work?  Is there any other way to recover it?  Thanks!

    Hi @Pat Willener,
    since I got the same problem as pdfprincess I hope you can help me. The 'Automatically save document changes to temporary file...' is enabled in my adobe reader.
    A file I worked (commented) on a lot crashed. When I reopened the file, adobe reader didn't ask if I want to restore my changes in this file, as it is written on the help.adobe.com page. Is there any possibility to restore the changes manually from the temporary file?
    Thanks in advance - it is really important for me to restore these changes!!

  • Adobe reader file preview type library reference

    Where I will may see adobe reader file preview type library reference?

    I would guess that this interface is registered and used by Windows to generate previews for Explorer. It is not supported or documented, but if it does that, it won't have anything to do with text extraction.
    Adobe Reader has a supported interface for displaying in a window.
    For a text extraction API you'd want Acrobat, which would allow you via VBA to run JavaScript to get text quads.
    Note that this is not for server use. If you want server text extraction consider Adobe's PDF iFilter. This is unusual in that it is supported but is not in the SDK; Microsoft define the interfaces to iFilters, not Adobe.
    If you have further questions about Acrobat or Reader development, I'd recommend that you post in the Acrobat SDK forum, to reach the right experts.

  • Cannot open adobe reader files.....because it was not a supported type file.......

    Cannot open adobe reader file............could not open because it was not a supported type file...........or damaged by email.... What support does it need????

    Impossible to say. All we can know is that it is NOT a valid PDF file.
    You could take a look. Try this.
    1. Open the file in Microsoft Word (or NotePad).
    2. If the file is good, use it - it was a Word (or text) file.
    3. Otherwise, look at the first few lines. These will probably be gobbledegook.
    4. Copy and paste the first few lines into your reply, perhaps someone will recognise what the file really is.

    Long hold on the document in mail and it should give you the open in... option, select adobe reader and the file is now saved locally for viewing even while offline.
