Unable to open scanned pdf files today. Was able to before.

Today when attempting to open scanned pdf files which opened successfully yesterday, this message appears:
"Paint cannot read this file. This is not a valid bitmap file, or its format is not currently supported."
As I mentioned this was not a problem yesterday. Suggestions? Thanks!

If you are trying to open a file in paint, why are you posting in the Adobe Reader forum. Paint is an MS product. Since you have a pdf file, try opening the file in Adobe Reader using the File->Open dialog box. That should work.

Unable to view scanned PDF files

I registered for Adobe ExportPDF in February. Since then Adobe on my PC was upgraded, and now I am unable to view scanned PDF files. What can be done about this?
Thanks

Hi David
The update that was done in response to a prompt was done to 10.1.9. Something apparently went wrong, because when I uninstalled it and reinstalled 11.0.06 everything worked fine.
Thanks

According to your User Agent you posted this question using Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 8.1. Are you having a problem with Firefox? What Firefox version?
You said you are having a problem opening PDF files on your system. Can you explain that better? Mozilla Support can help you with opening PDF files in Firefox, which uses a built-in PDF reader. Maybe one of these articles will help?

I opened a PDFs file that was attached to an email message and now it will not close when I press "Done" as it usually does. Does anyone have a solution to suggest? Thanks.

Try double clicking your home button then force close the stuck PDF by swiping upward. Once you've done that just click the home button again to exit.

I need my application to be able to open a .pdf file which was previously synced to the iBooks PFDs Collection. I then wish to remove the file from the collection and send it to email.

I opened one of the PDF files in notepad and these are the first couple lines:

Before, when reading PDF files, I was able to copy and paste part of the book. Now it is not possible. I can copy but when pasting gets nothing. Antes, quando lia arquivos PDF, eu conseguia copiar e colar parte do livro. Agora isso não é possível.

Caro Fabiano,
Obrigado por ter contactado as Comunidades de Suporte Apple.
Na origem do seu problema podem estar várias causas. Nomeadamente:
O ficheiro (arquivo) que está a ler pode não ser texto, ou seja, pode ser texto transformado em imagem e exportado como PDF.
A aplicação de destino (onde está a tentar colar o texto copiado) pode não aceitar a colagem de texto formatado.
A aplicação que está a utilizar para abrir os ficheiros PDF pode não ser indicada para certo tipo de documentos. Experimente o iBooks, o Dropbox ou até mesmo o seu e-mail.
No caso de nenhuma destas causas estar na origem do seu problema, forneça, por favor, mais informações sobre a origem do ficheiro (descarga pelo Safari, Mail ou outro) bem como o destino (documento Pages, Keynote ou Numbers ou outra aplicação que não o iWork).
Atentamente,
Gonçalo Matos

Unable to open multiple PDF files in Acrobat 9 Pro - Vista

I have a staff member that is unable to open more than one PDF at a time. If a PDF is currently open and another one is selected the program will crash and close. It gives a message stating the program has crashed and must be closed and also gives an option to check online for a solution. Has anyone else seen this issue or know a fix for it? Thanks in advance.

No. Starting with Acrobat 9 it is no longer possible to open multiple PDF files in the same window.

Unable to open existing PDF files after downloading Adobe reader

I have an Advent 7085 PC with Windows XP Home version 2002 service pack 2. After downloading the latest Adobe Reader 8 I cannot open any of my existing PDF files, nor can I open any new ones. I have several times downloaded it, tried it and found it doesn't work so have then deleted it from the system and rebooted. Downloaded again only for the same thing to happen again. Error message says that Adobe Reader 8.1 has encountered a problem and needs to close. Then I am advised to let microsoft know of this problem.
Please!!! Is there anybody out there who knows what the problem might be and help me resolve it?
Thanks

I finally called tech support and this is what we did and it worked for me...First go to start/control panel/add&remove programs. Once the program list is configured, hilite Adobe reader and select remove. Once the program is removed, from the control panel select user accounts. Set up a new user account "test". Through user "test" go into www.adobe.com and select icon to download adobe reader. You do not need to run media player, remove check unless you want to download it. After program is downloaded and copied you can close out of adobe. At that point I was able to open my PDF files without any error message. Tech advised me to keep the "test" user set up, doesn't hurt anything to have it there. He told me that there probably was some settings under my user account that was causing a glitch in the download and that is why we opted to download through a new user account. BTW the tech support was free if you still can't get it to work. Good Luck

Unable to open large pdf files..

I'm holding an E61 pda-phone. I downloaded acrobat reader v1.5. However, i still unable to view large pdf files, anyone pls advise... Thks

My guess is you're running out of memory when you load the file: is it bigger than the memory the phone has available before you try to open it?
You may be able to get around the problem by reducing the amount of phone memory in use: close any other applications you have running and move non-system files (documents, music, photos) from phone memory to card memory.

Unable to open large PDF file from the Attachment list.

Hi Gurus,
Users had attached 10 PDF file in the work order attachment list and his supervisor is trying to open the PDF file from the work order attachment list and he is able to open 9 PDF files without any issue, but 1 PDF file is giving the error message as "Database error for <GET DATA FROM KPRO>" and then select ok, we are getting the below message.
Window cannot find u201CC/Documents and Settings/b2m/SaoworkDir/5015851 Vendor data sheets B&P 2010 SDown XXX .PDFu2019. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the start button, and then click serch.
Looks like this particular file is not transferring to the SAP work directory.
Could you please check and suggest us as to how to fix it.
Thanks & Regards,
Srivas

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
We verified your OSS notes it's not relevant to us Because our issue is while opening the PDF aatchement it is not transferring to my SAP Work Directory because of that reason we are getting the KPRO error. When I'm opening the other PDF files it's transferring to my SAP Work Directory and it's automatically open without any issue.
Please check and suggest.
Thanks,
Srivas

Unable to open the pdf file

Hi...i am having adobe reader 9 as well as adobe acrobat professional 6 installed in my sytem. i want to open all pdf file should open with adobe reader 9 by default. please help how we can do this. Also i want to open the pdf file in adobe reader 9 during net surfing. please help. thanks in advance...
rajesh

You need to let Windows know what is the default for opening PDFs. That can be done by right clicking on a PDF and selecting open with and selecting the open always option with Reader. However, if Acrobat is running in the background -- the default for Acrobat and Reader to leave part running, then your selection may be ignored. In that case, stop Acrobat.exe in the task list.

Unable to open some pdf files

Hi there. Sorry to bother you guys but i'm really puzzled about something. Recently I've had problems opening some pdf files (they open fine on a pc). When i try to open it, the preview window opens but i am told "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later." I have on several occasions downloaded the latest version, but this does not seem to solve the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions? BTW I am using a macbook running on leopard. Thanks!

I don't know where bubbles went, but this just happened to me for the first time EVER using Mac OS X. I just received a pdf from a co-worker that gives me the "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later." when trying to open it with Preview. Like I said, I've never had Preview fail to open a pdf before. Has this been seen before? Is there something new r different about how this pdf might have been created that Preview doesn't handle?
I had recently downloaded a demo of YNAB (You Need A Budget) which also installed Adobe AIR (ugh). Thinking that might have changed something, I uninstalled AIR, rebooted, but no change. This pdf is still unopenable in Preview.
BTW, I am totally uninterested in installing Reader on my system and am hoping I can deal with this singularity.
Thanks to anyone with any insight...
