UNC path link opens as relative web address in adobe reader web plugin

Have the following action:
1) Open a file
2) File:\\servername\share\file.doc
That works fine in Adobe Reader.
However when opened in the web plugin, the link is changed to relative an opened like
http://webserver/share/file.doc
(And subsequently doesn't work)
How can we force this to open as an absolute path?
Adobe Reader 9.3

I did write there, but no replies
I guess that with Adobe Reader 10.1.1 running with IE 9.x in x64 bit mode, you cannot open the PDF within explorer, as it does it outside it as a separate Window?
Correct?

  • How do I open a link in a pdf in iOS App Adobe Reader 11.6.4?

    When I open a pdf in iOS App Adobe Reader 11.6.4 I cannot click on a link, the link is underlined but I have no possibility to choose that link. On a PC this link in the same PDF is functioning correctly.

    Michael,
    Your form is a special type of form called a "static XFA form" (typically authored with Adobe LiveCycle Designer).
    The "links" in the static XFA form are actually buttons (form fields) that act like hyperlinks.
    Unfortunately, Adobe Reader mobile products (including Adobe Reader for iOS, Android, Windows Phone) do not support static (or dynamic) XFA forms.  Sorry for the inconvenience.
    The static XFA buttons for web links did not work with any of the non-Adobe PDF viewers that I tried on my iPad, either.  So the users who receive the static XFA form will experience the same problem on mobile devices.

    It may depend on the plugin that is loaded into your browser. However, right click on a PDF and select the Open With option and go to the default button to select Acrobat as the default. That might do it.

  • Why can't I open pdf's after install of adobe reader? Should I see it in system preferences?

    Why can't I open pdf's after install of adobe reader? Should I see it in system preferences?

    There are can be reasons PDFs cannot be opened. For example, some forms created with Lifecycle Designer cannot be opened.
    Are you sure the file is a PDF? Can you open it in Adobe Reader or Acrobat on a Mac or PC? Does it give an error message when you try to open it?

    How do I open trial PS?  I get  "Adobe reader could not open Photoshop_13_LS16.7z because it is either not a supported file or because the file has been damaged..."  What am i doing wrong?

    the .7z extension is a compression format. If your system is trying to open it with Acrobat then somewhere along the line you system has tried to associate the .7z files with acrobat.
    You will need to download software to un-compress the .7z file. you can get a trial version of winzip for example or perhaps winrar - both of which will read that format. (do a Google search for either of these).
    During the installation of either of these you will get the opportunity to associate files with the correct program (including .7z).
    Once you have done that you should be fine.
    Cheers

  • I am unable to open any form. Any form/file I open states "not responding" This is adobe reader.

    I am unable to open any form. Any form/file I open states "not responding" This is adobe reader.

    Online and downloaded to my computer. There is no difference.
    browser is google but I also tried internet exployer...thats not the problem...your program is
    i just downloaded the most recent version..10.1...or whatever it is.
    i found this online:...how do I find the Adobe Readers X's 3d and multimedia settings...what tab do I click on..
    1) khwajakhurram I have tried your suggestion to uncheck the default "Enable hardware rendering for legacy video cards" setting and it seems to work!
    What is surprising is that Adobe Reader X's 3D & Multimedia settings report that the alternative preferred renderer modes are either software or DirectX9 .....on a Vista machine with DirectX11.
    The video card on this machine is definitely not legacy but a recent quality Nvidia produced card. That is also the case on the other machines with the issue I have reported.
    2) http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/860/cpsid_86063.html mentions that "certain configurations of anti-virus software that have not yet white-listed AcroRd32.exe" are "Unsupported configurations for Reader running in Protected Mode". Therefore I have also excluded AcroRd32.exe from virus scanning.
    I am now able to use both Protected Mode and Advanced Security without issue.
    I will experiment with various versions of this in the next few days and see whether both or just one of these remedies are needed.
    Update: I have found that performance is vastly improved by changing from the default preferred renderer mode of DirectX9 to the alternative Software setting.

  • How do I paste PDF link address into Adobe Reader Touch?

    Hi anyone,
    How do I paste a link naddress into Adobe Reader Touch?
    Richard

    "paste a link address" - Do you mean adding a new hyperlink to a PDF document in Adobe Reader Touch?
    Adobe Reader Touch is a simple PDF viewer and does not support creation of new hyperlinks.

  • Opening .PDF's in IE7 with Adobe Reader 9.0 & Adobe Writer 5.0

    Hi
    I am running a XP Pro environment on a HP D530 machine. I have installed on this PC Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Writer 5.0. I have defaulted through the folder options all .PDF and adobe related files to open in 9.0 and done the normal 'open with' option aswell. Problem is on this internet ticker link i have/use, all the .PDF's posted on there always default to 5.0 and produce a error saying i need to upgrade to a higher version. If i leave 9.0 open then it will default to them without any issue. Is there any regkeys or files in 5.0 or 9.0 i can change so i can set all files to 9.0 Reader?
    I have been told the ticker is only used to link to the files and does not have any code that dictates how the .PDF's open.
    Any adive or ideas would be of great help! :-)

    With Acrobat 7 you can only send out Browser Based Review, (which is replaced by shared reviews in version 9).
    The reviewers will need to open the PDF inside a browser, and have access to the location of the PDF to be reviewed.
    Acrobat 8 can do both types still, have a look here:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/8.0/Professional/help.html?content=WSB7237F9D-E90A-4c6 b-8C0D-58C7B2063B1D.html
    And here's a tutorial for those situations whereby reviewers do not have access to the server location of the Reviewed PDF:

  • How to open hyperlinks in a pdf with Adobe Reader 9?

    We publish a digital journal with hyperlinks to various sources. After installation of Adobe Reader version 9 we are not able anymore to open the hyperlinks. Looking to the discussion Fora we also followed the procedure to disable the PDF/A mode of view. Then the Reader mentions that it tries connecting the website of the source and asks permission to do so. I give that permission, but nothing happens then. This is really a problem for us and I cannot imagine that this is not soluble. We use internet explorer newest version.

    We are experiencing a similar problem with hyperlinks in Reader 9.3.4 but this is with PDF not /A files from which we call SWF movies.
    We have training products produced in Acrobat 6, as PDFs which have hyperlinks to run Flash movies (SWFs). The products are installed from CD onto users' hard drives.
    The products have worked on hundreds of PCs and Macs, but as each customer updates to Reader 9.3.4 they report failure to open the SWFs.
    The SWFs are organised in a hierarchy of folders depending on exact topic. All the movies are inside a "data" folder, then main topic folders, down to sub-topic folders.
    I have found that the PDF hyperlinks will open a copy of the relevant SWF if it is placed in the same folder as the calling PDF, but not when it is in its rightful position down the path.
    The initial error message shown when files are in their correct folders says e.g.  "Cannot find anchoring_one.swf" suggesting that only the filename is called and not the path. However the second message, displayed when the first is acknowledged, says e.g. "Cannot open data/anchoring/anchoring_one.swf" So the hyperlink IS outputting the full path, but somehow it it is being truncated to file name only.
    Seems that the call is produced from the hyperlink correctly, and registers with the system as full path. Then the call is passed forward to a function which should actually open the file and here loses its path, so file-open fails and returns a "Cannot Find" message. The return code from this function is passed back as a failure, to the prior function which still knows the path. This prior function then issues the "Cannot Open" message, including the full path.
    Is is totally impractical for us to rewrite and re-issue the programs in any other format, or stop thousands of independent customers from upgrading to Reader 9.3.4
    I hope Adobe can fix this issue VERY quickly.

  • When I open a document in Firefox with Adobe Reader 9, I am unable to print it (no problem when using Internet Explorer)

    I'm running Windows 7 (64-bit), using Firefox 8.0. When I open a document with Adobe Reader 9, I am unable to do anything with it (print, save, etc.) other than view it. When I use Internet Explorer I don't have this problem.

    Not sure what you mean by truncated troubleshooting report, but here's what I copied from "troubleshooting" under "help". My printer is selected as the default printer in Devices and Printers. Also, remember that a document that won't print in Firefox prints fine in Internet Explorer.

  • How can I open pdf attachments in email? Adobe reader used to do this, and does not.

    About 3 weeks ago, I suddenly could not open pdf attahments while reading my email. I now must down load them and save, in order to open them. Can someone help me to fix this? They open on my desk top, but not in Internet explorer. I would like to see them before down loading. What can I do to fix this problem?

    Enable the Adobe Reader plugin in browser : http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html

  • Where on Windows hard drive does Firefox temporarily store PDF files that I open from websites when I have Adobe Reader configured as the default PDF reader?

    I have Windows 7 and Firefox 19.0.2. I see that every time I open a PDF file from a website, it prompts me to either save the file or open it with a program (defaults to Adobe Acrobat Reader). If it is the same file name that I keep opening up over and over, it appends an incremental number to the end of the file name. To me this implies that it is download the file to a temporary location and then opening it in Adobe Reader. Where is Firefox storing these files and how can I be sure that they are being deleted regularly? I don't want these files to be kept on my local hard drive after I close the file in Adobe Acrobat.

    ''lowcountrybird wrote:''

    Files that you choose to open with an external program are saved in your temporary folder. To open it, click the Windows logo orb on the taskbar, type '''%TEMP%''' in the search box, then press Enter.<br>
    You can clean out temporary files in Windows using the Disk Cleanup utility. The program can also be scheduled to perform cleaning tasks automatically without prompting.

    That shouldn't be happening. If you try to download a file that's already in your temporary folder, it should simply open instead of being downloaded again.<br>
    I don't know what could be causing it though. First, try upgrading to the latest version of Firefox. If nothing else, your system will no longer be vulnerable to the security holes in the version you're using.
