Unable to View Japanese Fonts in Reader

A conundrum I just can't resolve:
I have two computers, both running XP Pro.
I downloaded the latest Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site (version 8.1.2) and installed to both computers.
I have a PDF with some Japanese fonts in them.
When I open the PDF on computer 1, initially the PDF appears to display a row of dots where the Japanese text should be. Within seconds however, a prompt appears informing me that I must download a font pack to be able to display the text. I agree to the download, and it commences and installs automatically. I then have to restart Reader, upon which I can now view the Japanese fonts. Perfect.
However, on computer 2, although the same operations take place, the Japanese fonts never appear - only a row of dots.
I have tried uninstalling Reader and re-downloading and reinstalling. I have also tried manually downloading the Japanese font pack and installing it, with no change.
Any ideas?

Hmm - this is very unusual. I have installed the Japanese font pack on countless computers, and I have never seen such a problem.
If I were to experience this problem, I would try the following
- uninstall the font pack from Add/Remove Programs (Japanese Fonts Support For Adobe Reader)
- uninstall Adobe Reader
- reboot, if asked to
- reinstall Adobe Reader
- download the font pack from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/acrrasianfontpack.html (make sure that the font pack version matches the reader version, i.e. font pack version 8 for reader 8.1.2)
- install the font pack
If all this still fails, then we'll have to come up with new ideas.

Japanese fonts for Reader on Sparc Solaris?

I am looking for Japanese fonts for Reader on Sparc Solaris.
I understand that Reader 8.1.7 is the latest for Sparc.
I searched Adobe website but only found font packages for later versions and with x86 shared objects;
I could not find font pack that is either machine independent or for sparc.
Any pointer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help.

Unable to view Japanese PDF

Windows 7, Adobe Reader X (10.1.6)
If I download 'FontPack1000_ja_JP' then I am able to view the doc.
As I'm in a corporate environment I paid for FontFolio_11_1_ESD1_LS1.
After searching and reading docs I managed to find the Japanese fonts (about 12); I've installed all and on opening the PDF doc I'm not able to view but am presented with a popup request to download FontPack1000_ja_JP
Can anyone advise what steps I need to take; also since the license has been purchased can I not just use the FontPack1000_ja_JP?

Anybody have any other ideas on how to install from the purchased font folio pack?
No, you will need to install the Japanese Font Pack, I think even for the MUI version.
As the font pack is an extension of Adobe Reader, it may already be part of the distribution agreement for Adobe Reader. You may want to ask in https://forums.adobe.com/community/licensing/ for confirmation.

Unable to view ruler in Adobe Reader x 10.1.4

I have Adobe Reader x 10.1.4 in my system. I need to view the ruler. Please help. Thanks!

If you're asking about the measuring tool, it is not available unless the document is Reader-enabled, which is done with Acrobat or LiveCycle Reader Extension.

Unable to view documents through Adobe Reader

Hi,
The following are the softwares which we have installed.
1. Adobe Reader - 7.07
2. Adobe Acrobat Professional - 7.0
3. Adobe LiveCycle Designer 7.1
4. Adobe LiveCycle Forms 7.2.2
5. Adobe LiveCycle Form Manager 7.2.2
6. Adobe LiveCycle Workflow - 7.2.2
7. Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions 7.2.2
8. Adobe LiveCycle Policy Server 7.2
We have performed Turnkey installation on all the above mentioned softwares.
We are facing some issues in viewing the policy documents through Adobe Reader.
We have created a Policy through the Policy Server. Then using Adobe Acrobat Professional we added this policy to a document.
But when we try to view the policy added document through Adobe Reader, it is throwing the following error.
"You are attempting to connect to a policy server using an insecure protocol. The connection attempt has been cancelled. Please contact an administrator for assistance".
In one of the installation documents of LiveCycle products, it is given that we need to enable the SSL while running the Configuration Manager. But since we have done Turnkey installation the SSL enabling option did not appear in the installation wizard.
Can someone please let me know how to enable the SSL using Turnkey installation.
Regards,
Suraj

The guide Chris mentioned talks about setting up SSL, but you need to import the certificate into the "trusted root CA" store in Internet Options on every machine which will open the document. You probably have got the SSL set up correctly, but just to emphasise there should be absolutely no warnings what-so-ever in IE when you hit the https://hostname:8443 address -after- closing and reopening the browser, and it should show the Padlock symbol to indicate the SSL is on. In my experience this means that the first part of the CN must be the exact hostname which you will access the server to avoid the "cert doesn't belong to this host" error which will appear in addition to the "untrusted CA" error. And if you are using the server in production where clients may not have permission to add trusted root CA's then you will need to use a proper SSL certificate. This guide worked for me: http://blogs.adobe.com/livecycle/2006/10/configuring_jboss_325_with_a_r.html (p.s. I'd recommend NOT using any symbols in the keystore password, or you may have to change it to get it running with JBoss) ______________________ Once you are absolutely sure the SSL is spot on, this is the step which you may have missed: On the Policy Server administration panel, go to "Configuration" -> "Server Configuration", then update the base url. It should look like: https://<cn_on_ssl_cert>:8443 Once you've updated that address, you will need to reapply any policies, since the server address is stored in the PDF document itself. Don't forget to update the policy server address in Acrobat too. Hope that helps, Robert

Unable to view OCR FONT in PDF preview

Hi,
I am working on XML Publisher report. I have developed an RTF, in which i have number whose font is OCRA. When i preview the rtf as PDF, the number doesn't show the font as OCR, it displays the number in a different font.
So can you please help me why is this happening? and how can i display OCR FONT in pdf.
Thanks.

Thanks for your time.
Yes i was trying on my desktop, but now i have been able to display/preview OCR font in PDF output.
To do this,
I downlaoded OCR FONT to my client computer.
In the template, go to custom properties (File/Properties/Custom) and add the following property for each special font:
Name: xdo-font..normal.normal
Value: truetype.
Example 1
xdo-font.OCR A Extended.normal.normal
truetype.C:\WinNT\Fonts\OCRAEXT.TTF
Example 2
xdo-font.IDAutomationMICR.normal.normal
truetype./u204/custom/12.0.0/others/IDAutomationMICR.ttf.
The above solution worked for me only in case of previewing pdf output from template on my client machine, it dint worked form applications because i haven't installed the font on Linux/Apps server.
I now have to figure it out to get it work from Applications. So please let me know if you know any solution on the steps to follow to download/install the fonts on server to have it effective from applications.
I appreciate your help and time.
Thanks.

For example, on http://lyric.kget.jp/lyric/kq/qu/ , I cannot view the lyrics of the song inside the Adobe flash player, and all I see are just random symbols and letters. Is there any way to fix this? (I have just reinstalled the latest version of the Adobe flash player and it does not fix the problem.)

But no luck
I'm in a corporate environment but can I use the free FontPack1000_ja_JP as I have purchased FontFolio_11_1_ESD1_LS1?
I assume I am covered by the purchased license

The Japanese Reader version already includes the Japanese fonts, so it is usable for this purpose. Is this workable for you, or would you still like to try installing the Japanese font pack with the English Reader version?

Japanese Fonts for Acrobat Reader X

With the older versions of Acrobat Reader to view a document that had both english and japanese fonts you had to install an extra font pack for the language that the additional fonts used. With Reader X I see there is a MUI for the Japanese version but I am using the english (US) version and want to view PDF files that have japanese fonts. Do I need to install additional font pack? If so where do I download it? If not how do I configure the reader app to view the fonts?

Hi,
Assuming that you have installed Reader MUI on an English OS, you will need to install the additional Japanese Font Pack to view any Japanese PDF (From the location mentioned in ssway's post). Reader MUI simplifies the process of installing different language versions of Reader by providing you with a single installer for the same.

Japanese Font pack on Adobe Reader 9.1

we had installed the Japanese font pack while installing the Adobe reader 9.0 English package. Now we have pushed the Adober reader 9.1 package to the same workstations, but when we open a document containing the Jananese characters it gives an error saying Japanese font pack is not installed. do we need to re-install the Japanese font pack after intalling the Adobe 9.1 version?

I had the Japanese font pack 9.0 with Reader 9.0 installed, but I have no problems viewing Japanese documents after installing Reader 9.1.
However, I don't see the font pack in Add/Remove Programs, so maybe it has been removed during the 9.1 update? But strange, why can I still view Japanese documents?
I made a little experience: I tried to reinstall the font pack 9.0, but the installer gave me the option to Repair, or Remove - which means that the font pack is still installed.
Can you try the same?

Adobe Reader X Japanese font problem in Windows 7

This is happening if we open a PDF with Japanese font in Windows7 OS.
Tried to install Japanese font pack for Japanese Adobe X. But that is not getting installed with an error message : 'Install Adobe X before installing Japanese font pack'.
Only fontpacks for 10.1 version could get installed successfully. But its again same issue.
Can anyone hele here?
Thanks,
Rashmi

When that happens, can you check with the Task Manager (Processes tab) if AcroRd32.exe is already running? If so, can you kill the process from Task Manager and try again?
Another thing to try when this happens is to restart Windows, does it work after that?

Unable to view or read email

I've now got a weird problem with the 2.0 firmware;
The mail in my inbox now only shows the most recent message, no matter how many are in there or how many are new.
This is frustrating as I constantly have the new message number on the mail icon, with no way of reading the messages.
I've linked to two screen shots (taken using the Home button + Power button trick) where you can see the problem.
One screen shows the message preview looking normal, but if you look at the upper-right, you will see the "arrow" off the top of the screen, instead of to the right of the message. I am unable to select the message to read.
The second screen shows what happens when I click the "Edit" button. No "dot" to the left to check the message to delete.
Anyone else having this problem?

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.
