Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 printing problems.

I am currently using Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 with the following information ,and I have problems printing in system configurations (I have an old Brother HL-1060 Laser printer)....
When I use the following defaultprinting preferences, the pages come out blank when printing riffmci.pdf (That can be found on the net):
- Resolution 600dpi
- 1200x600dpi Support: Off.
When I set the resolution to 1200dpi and 1200x600dpi Support to on the printing completes successfully. Is this a known issue with Adobe Acrobat Reader printing engine??

Acrobat Reader command line problem

In windows xp professional I'm programatically creating a batch file and executing it (shell command in visual basic) to convert pdf files to Microsoft xps.
The batch command looks like this one:
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /t "D:\MyDir\Microsoft XPS Document\x.pdf" "Microsoft XPS Document Writer" /t "D:\MyDir\Microsoft XPS Document\x.xps".
When the user logged in on the machine is an administrator, acrobat reader does the operation silently. When a normal user (not belonging to administrators group) is logged in on the machine, acrobat reader opens the save as dialog window requiring user interaction.
The normal user has full control over the destination directory. I already tested giving the normal user full control over AcroRd32.exe and over cmd.exe with no success. I also tried in visual basic 2008 executing the command through System.Diagnostics.Process.Start with the exact same curious results.
Can someone help.
Thank you.

Hi.
I couldn't find a solution within Adobe for the problem I reported Oct 9, 2012, so I went to a fallback solution aimed to complete the needed stages. I'm posting here the visual basic 2008 code I wrote then. It is not a graceful solution and has some coarse code but was designed as part of an application that must keep processing files without user intervention. The procedure "followAcroRd32PDFtoXPS" must be called after the execution of a batch command like the described in the previous post:

Clearly Acrobat Reader has a problem. If you point me at the symbols for AcroRd32 I'll help debug it for you since I can repro it easily.

Here are few solutions:
1. You can configure firefox to open pdf in external application like acroread. This way plugin problem is bypassed. - I use it this way. It looks to be faster this way.
2. "C:\nppdf32Log\debuglog.txt" is created every time in directory from where you executed firefox/opera/other browser and opened any pdf file in browser. So this is not only home directory. You can fix this problem by yourself by hex editing nppdf.so file and replacing C:\nppdf32Log\debuglog.txt path in this file with /dev/null path. See my post here for detailed instructions: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1253800

Acrobat Reader 9.1.x freezes after startup

Hello,
Our Acrobat Reader is having problems on some machines during startup that it completly freezes after startup.
I've traced this with procmon and have seens that a certain file "sharedEvents" is trying to to somthing buth it is hanging on
lock - unlock. Killing All process of Acrobat Reader and deleting this file and then re-starting the program isn't helping because it keeps 0 kb and the mentioned behaviour is trying to do something with this file.
the file can be found in %appdata%\adobe\acrobat\9.0
Our profile's is redirected , it is working for most of the users but some users are having this problem.
Can anybody tell me what Acrobat Reader is doing with this file and is there a work around to initialize everything back again so the
user can startup the program normally so it is not freezing after startup without having to remove and install it back again ?
Best regards,
Bert

Hi,
The problem I'm having is a problem on the journal file. After some more investigating it look that the problem can be related to oplocks since we have enbaled oplocks on our server (were the file is placed trough folder redirection). We will check this ...
I've already disabled oplocks on client side and then everything is working however we are using Vista in combination with offline files and if you disbale oplocks then offline files will not work so we are looking a bith further to see what we can do on server side ... to be continued ...
Best regards,
Bert

Acrobat Reader 9 slow printing

There is no question that Acrobat Reader 9 causes problems with printing. I, as many others, reloaded printer drivers, checked every other possibility and finally removed version 9 and reactivated version 8. No more problems. This was with an HP P2015 laser jet printer. Reader 9 definitely has some issues.

If Adobe Acrobat Reader prints slowly try the following:
1.             Open a PDF file
2.             From the menu, select File > Print
3.             From the dialog displayed, click on the Advanced button at the bottom
4.             On the Advanced Print Setup dialog, make sure that “Let printer determine colors” is CHECKED.
5.             Click OK and OK to print the document.
This worked for me.

SignatureValidate() method not working in acrobat reader 5

Hi All,
Will the method signatureValidate() work in acrobat reader 5. the same pdf validation which is working in acrobat reader versions >= 7 and not working in version 5. Kindly let me know if there are any alternative methods available to detect the digital signature field changes in lower versions. Urgent help required on this.
thanks in advance.

Did you ever figure this out? I am also having problems with the "No Hand" javascript which turns off the (not very helpful) page-forward hand icon (a hand symbol with a down arrow) which confuses our users when in fullscreen mode. We create interactive PDFs and everything worked fine up to Acrobat X/Reader X. Now in XI it doesn't allow the internal link icon (pointing finger) nor weblink icon (pointing finger with W) to appear. It just remains a plain o’ hand icon no matter what you mouse over even though there are links present.

Trouble with the advanced search function on acrobat reader. Why won't it open? it used to, but suddenly stopped working.

For some inexplicable reason the advanced search option in my acrobat reader 11.0.3 has stopped working. It worked just fine a few weeks ago. I am running Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro. When I open advanced reader the pdf file I am trying to search ceases to be the active window. But no other window exists (in 'window' search is checked, but there is nothing there!). Does anyone have any ideas. I have downloaded and re-installed reader twice, and removed all earlier versions (I think). This is kind of urgent!

It's a 3rd party app. You really should contact Adobe Support and/or post in the Adobe Forums
Mac OS X (10.6.6)
Use Software Update or the OS 10.6.8 combo update to update your OS. Also, update everything SU has to offer for your computer. When done, repair permissions and restart your computer.

"there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. if it is running please exit and try again. (523.523)

We are getting the following error "there is a problem with adobe acrobat/reader. if it is running please exit and try again. (523.523)" and a gray screen appears (Image not viewable) with multiple users. We are using Adobe Reader XI (11.0.05) and (11.0.06). The current workaround is to log off the website and log back in. Once the user logs back in, the pdf will appear. However it occurs anywhere from 2-8 times in a day. Anyone else having this issue or know of another workaround? Any suggestion with how to fix? Please help!!

Hi Valerie,
Please let me know the version of Adobe Acrobat/Reader & operating system installed on your computer?
Also, try this:-
Launch Adobe Reader/Acrobat.
From the menu, choose Edit -> preferences -> General
Uncheck the option for "Enable Protected Mode at startup"
Restart the Adobe Reader and web browser.

I have installed adobe flash player. I can not open the file. In plugins under tools it is not showing. It shows acrobat reader being there but not flash player. Any ideas?

Flasher Player should be listed as a plugin in tools for it to work?

The Adobe-Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser. Please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and exit your Web Browser and try again."

None has solved the problem. However it still works ok with IE. But I want to stick with Chrome because I find IE is so slow!
I am using Vista, with Adobe Acrobat standard 9.5.2 and Google Chrome version 23.0.1271.64 m which is marked on Chrome as 'up to date'
Does anyone know why I might be getting this error on Chrome but not IE?

I think I have discovered the answer to my own question!
I have disabled Adobe Reader plug-in, and can now see PDFs in Chrome.
(Steps: Chrome Menu, Settings option, Click Advanced Settings link, then Content Settings button, then select Disable Individual Plug-Ins, and a list of plug-ins is offered to enable or disable).
I then get a different result depending on whether or not Chrome PDF viewer is enabled - with it enabled I see the PDF document in Chrome, or with it disabled then the option is offered to download it, but either way I can get it it via Chrome without having to run Internet explorer in another browser window.

Adobe Acrobat/Reader can not be used to view PDF's in Web browser.

Does any one came accross the following message trying to view PDF's in web browser? "Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF documents in Web browser. Please exit the Acrobat?Reader application and try again". Thanks for your help! Barbara

Since Lion doesn't support Power PC... how do I open Adobe acrobat reader?

I'm trying to open Adobe Acrobat Reader to download something from the internet, and discovered for the first time that I can't because Power PC is no longer supported by Apple..(whatever that is????) I don't know what to do. Can someone help. Thank you sgarbo

power pc is an old cpu type made by ibm that apple used to put in their rather old macs
if you downloaded an acrobat reader which require power pc then you downloaded the wrong! and possible dangerous version of acrobat reader download the correct one if you must from adobes site
but osx support displaying pdf files without you installing that program
which along with Java are the biggests caused of insucrity in private computers there are apple and windows alike

URGENT!!! IE 5.0 + ACROBAT READER 4.05 PROBLEM...
