View Adobe Pdf results Minimized

I'm running Acrobat Pro 10.1.4 with QuarkXpress and Photoshop CS5. With both programs when creating a Pdf by using the Adobe Pdf driver and the "View Adobe Pdf Results" checked, a pdf file is created, but not fully opened. A flashing minimized box is placed on the taskbar which opens to a full page view when clicked. In earlier versions of Acrobat it opened directly to full page view. Additionally, when creating a pdf with a third party program (NovaPDF), it works properly and directly opens to full page view. Perhaps, I haven't configured the preference file correctly. Has anyone else run into this problem? Appreciate all help & guidance.

Yes, I'm printing to the Adobe PDF printer. FWIW, I used to be able to right-click in MSIE and use "convert to PDF" to create a PDF, but when my hard drive crashed and was replaced and the OS (and everything else) reinstalled, that wouldn't work anymore. Now I get a script error. I'm guessing that's an MSIE problem (possibly because when the OS was reinstalled, a newer version -- 9 -- of MSIE was installed), but at this point I can live with it.

Acrobat X--View Adobe PDF results

Since the latest update to Acrobat X Pro, to 10.1, Acrobat doesn't show the PDF results when I print to PDF (from Word, from the Web, etc.). The PDF printer otherwise works fine; I just like to see the PDF pop up right after I create it to make sure it's what I want. I took a look at printing preferences for the Adobe PDF printer, and "View Adobe PDF results" is still checked (it was checked under the version before the update). I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, if that matters. I'd appreciate any help anyone can provide. Thanks in advance!

I also had this problem immediately after upgrade to 10.1, and I believe there is a bug involved.
Going to Printer Properties, Advanced tab, and unchecking "Enable advanced printing features" did display the file after creating it.
Checking "Enable advanced printing features" caused the file to not be displayed, even though the Printer Perferences setting to "View Adobe PDF results" remained checked under both conditions.
I think there is a bug involved because under the problem condition, when the PDF file would be created but not displayed, I could not rename the file. It would say that Adobe had the file open. I could only rename the file by Ending Process on acrodist.exe or restarting Windows (7 Pro 64-bit).
It seems that somehow the process was getting hung at a point prior to the display of the file.
Since the workaround is to disable advanced features that I would like to use, it's not an acceptable solution for me.
Is there a place to file a bug report and get a ticket?

"view adobe pdf results" stopped working

Even though the box for adobe pdf printing preferences is checked.
i always like to see when a new pdf is creared, but now it goes straight to the folder instead.
using acrobat 9 pro extended, version 9.5, which i just updated again.
any help much appreciated

Wish I could tell you more. The setting is to show the pdf file once printed, and the box checked is entitled, "View adobe pdf results." I believe that is the default. After a recent automatic upgrade, it stopped doing so, and after a lot of playing around, including repairing and reinstalling the program, and turning the feature off then on again, nothing has worked. I can live with it, but it's just that I now have to go into the folder each time to make sure it printed correctly.
I just tried it with this message and it worked after a bunch of strange errot messages.
Overall, I have experienced intermittent "printer not responding" messages that force me to shut my browser, mostly firefox, and I think there is a bug in firefox that affects the interface with acrobat. I sometimes just copy and paste to word as a go around.
Thanks.

Problem with viewing Adobe PDF documents

Problem with viewing Adobe PDF documents
I have a Windows 7 Home Premium Computer
I have read all the suggestions and I have tried downloading multiple versions of Adobe Reader for Windows 7 and Vista from http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/.
Prior to downloading each version I would delete the current version using control panel programs uninstall.
After each new installation I would shut down the computer and then restart the computer.
I have tried downloading versions with and without having my antivirus (CA Total Defence) running.
I am told after download that the version downloaded successfully.
I have read Acrobat Help http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/troubleshoot-reader-installation-windows.html and followed the instructions.
None of the above has helped.
The problem is no matter what version of Adobe Reader I download, I cannot seem to open a PDF and read it. Nor will the Reader itself stay open.
1. If I try opening the reader from the desktop link or from the actual program menu, the reader opens for about 5 seconds and then closes of its own accord. If I try to click on any of the reader menus (eg File, Edit, View, Window, Help, Tools) then a warning bell is sounded and the menu does not open. Shortly thereafter the reader closes.
2. If I try to open the reader by double clicking on a PDF document then the reader opens but the document is not shown (only the grey PDF reader screen is shown) and then the reader closes after about 5 seconds of its own accord.
The desktop shortcut shows as the 'red Adobe Reader icon'. But the actual program menu icon shows as a blank folder icon. All PDF documents show as the PDF Adobe icon.
I have tested various PDFs and none will open on this computer but they will open on other computers.
I have created a word document and saved it as a PDF. It looked like it had save correctly (has the appropriate icon) but when I try to open it as per step 2 above then the document is not shown and then the reader closes after about 5 seconds of its own accord.
Does anyone have any ideas about what is going on and how I can fix this?
Could you please answer in this forum and email me at [removed]
I am so puzzled and frustrated.

Thank you so much this did the trick.
I spent so many hours on trying to sort this out and your answer was so simple and clear.

Clarification Regarding Adobe PDF Settings

Hi Folks,
I have a doubt regarding printer settings. I have developed a application using VC++, My application creates a new printer and it copies the default "Adobe PDF settings" of Adobe printer.
I want to change the adobe PDF Settings of my applications's printer say Eg: "View Adobe PDF Results".
Initially "View Adobe PDF Results" is in checked status in "Adobe PDF Printer" when it copies to my application's printer i need "View Adobe PDF Results" to be in unchecked status.
I have tried with Devmode2 in printer settings to make that particular field as "1" but it not working
where to change the value exactly?
How to change the UI with my own values?
Regards,
Nethaji.

I've seen a Microsoft article somewhere which says that
DevModes2 is for 16-bit app compatibility only
DevModePerUser seems to do the trick.
Using fairly low-level analysis, I found the "View PDF Results" was a byte at offset (decimal) 1136 (assuming beginning byte starts at 0).
So under key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Printers\DevModePerUser value Adobe PDF has a REG_BINARY contains a byte at the above offset which has a value of
00 = View PDF Results is OFF
01 = View PDF Results is ON
I guess the same key could be applied in HKEY_USERS\(dot)Default\...... and HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-18 (LocalSystem account) for services which use Adobe PDF.
Hope this helps.
Best Regards

Adobe pdf online view issue- End user license agreement

There is an issue with viewing adobe pdf online.

I just found on other thread. I tried this and it helped solve view the contents. I other words this resolved.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens, then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

How can i prevent modifing the itemes in Adobe PDF Printer Setting?

Hi,
I have installed an Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1.0 in windows xp.In print dialog,push the Property button,it will appear a dialog of Adobe PDF Setting,one of the setting itemes is "View the Adobe PDF Results",it can be set to view or not view the new created PDF file. I want hold the default setting and prevent modifing it,How can i do? can it be realized by javascript program?Thanks a lot!

Hi,Test Screen Name
Because HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\Ad obe PDF\ is the dir where to set the property of Adobe PDF printer when windows load it , this is experience, no documentation(or i don't find) , perhaps there will be other registry itemes which does not list in that dir ,but i don't know , that is why i think it just like what you have said ' It looks very like a "discovery" rather than a policy ' . For this reason , i want to realize it by adobe acrobat SDK programming ,but now the second way is impossible. Thank you again !

Adobe PDF Conversion Settings

I'm running Acrobat Pro v7.1. Recently, I had a problem with Avast, which suddenly decided that Acrobat was a virus. To their credit, there was a quick update from Avast from Avast to fix the problem, but not before I'd re-installed Acrobat. I'm not certain that this is where my problem started but it's a good candidate for blame.
Normally, when I create a PDF I am prompted for an Output Folder. This is how I have it set under Printing Preferences as I am usually creating PDFs to send to clients and I need to keep them in clients' folders. Since the occurence outlined above this option is now not offered when I create a new pdf, instead it defaults to creating a PDF in My Documents. If I then repeat the print job, I am prompted for a directory.
When I am creating PDFs for everyday business I have "View Adobe Output Results" ticked. However, when I am preparing batch invoices I turn this off. Now, again, this option is ignored and resets itself. Very annoying when creating around 40 invoices.
Another minor problem - and this is one I've had all along - is that when I create a PDF, if I close it down before roughly 5 seconds, it opens up again.
I am using the Standard.joboption. I created a new option (Standard1) with the options I required but this is still ignored. I've changed the Read Only settings on the Settings folder and the files but this hasn't made any difference.

To populate the 2 fields that are blank you would normally just select from the list. Check that out in the Start>Printers menu under the Adobe PDF printer settings. Also, open Distiller and see if any properties are set for the settings and such.
Since you have a 64-bit system, be sure you have installed the updates to AA8, currently at 8.3.1. 64-bit systems require 8.1 at a minimum. Though Adobe does not support AA8 on many of the newer systems (not heard about Win8 yet), many users have been successful, at least on 32-bit systems. I have read 3 posts of folks successful on Win 7, 64-bit systems supposedly, but they do seem to have some issues as might be expected. If you are talking about Win8, I have heard nothing on folks running on that one with AA8. So your OS is an important part of the answer.

Printer Adobe PDF (Acrobat X)

Hi!
I am having problem printing an Illustrator file or Excel file into the Adobe PDF (Acrobat X, from Design Standar CS5.5). I'm getting an error that says: Can't find Adobe PDF ressource files, C:\documents and settings\user\application Data\Adobe\Adobe PDF\settings\minimal file size.joboptions (in french it is: Taille de fichier minimales.joboptions) .
You need Administrator Rights to install these File.
Do I really need to give the user admin rights? I did tried running the application in Administrator mode (Run As), it was working, but in that folder, there is no such file.
Thanks if you can help me

Good day,
Can't find Adobe PDF ressource files, C:\documents and settings\user\application Data\Adobe\Adobe PDF\settings\minimal file size.joboptions (in french it is: Taille de fichier minimales.joboptions) .
You need Administrator Rights to install these File.
Do I really need to give the user admin rights? I did tried running the application in Administrator mode (Run As), it was working, but in that folder, there is no such file.
It sounds like you've got a custom job option that you're trying to access. Try placing your custom job option here: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings
This should allow all users, regardless of rights level, access to your file.

Disable View PDF Results not working

I am using Adobe 9 with Windows 7 and I am trying to disable View PDF Results via printing preferences. Everytime I uncheck the box to View PDF Results, it does not stay unchecked. It is driving me nuts. I have searched this forum and a few others had this issue but there were no solutions posted. I had this issue once before but I cannot remember how I fixed it because I think I fixed it by accident.
Thanks
Justin

Anyone have any idea how to fix this issue?

View Multiple PDFs in tabs in ONE window in ADOBE 9

OK...so after hours of uninstalling and reinstalling adobe 9 to get past adobe's multiple error messages and running CHCKDSK and Windows registry cure I finally get Adobe reader 9 to work, only to find out that
I can not view multiple pdf's in one window in tiled tabs. Basically I need to have several pdf's open in one window in adobe. I'm a student and writer and deal with multiple e-books at once for dissemination and I do not want them open in multiple windows, just one window with multiple tabs.
In adobe 8 this option was in preferences. It does not exist in adobe 9. I can not have all these pdfs open in different windows, I want multiple pdfs to open in one window.
This has been a very frustrating evening dealing with adobe 9. I wish I would have never installed it in the first place. I probably won't be buying 9 pro, its pretty crazy that there are all these frustrations. This whole thing with the Error 2330.Error getting file attributes C:\Program Files\AdobeReader 9.0 GetLastError:1392 which I finally fixed myself and then to find that there is not any way to view multiple pdf's in one adobe 9 window--at least according to what can be found here on adobe, I'm just in tears. I'm not a technical person and I have things due on monday. This is very frustrating.

The change is due to Adobe's following Microsoft's user interface
guidelines. I would recommend getting MS to change its tune.

How to make firefox open a URL in a PDF document which is loaded using Adobe PDF viewer in firefox to always in a new browser window ?

Hi
I have a web application which would enable users to see a list of PDF document on the web page and when the user select the PDF document, it will be open by a adobe PDF viewer.
Within the content of the PDF document, it will contact URL links to some other portal web pages which we would like these other web pages to be open in a new browser window, but our testing shows that the new web pages may not always open in a new browser window.
Could you help to advise how I can enforce that new web pages that are clicked from the PDF document can always be open in a new firefox browser window ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Sen Lee

Hello,
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
#In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

How can I disable viewing of PDF-files in browser in Adobe Reader XI?

Hi everyone
After I have upgraded to Adobe Reader XI, I not longer can find the checkbox under settings>Internet, where I can disable that Adobe Reader XI viewing PDF-files in my browser.
If I instead press on the button, I can see in the dialog box Adobe refers to an article there give me instruction to turn off the viewing of PDF-files via my browser settings. When I follow these instructions, I can see that the plug-in to Adobe is disabled when I not viewing PDF-files in my browser, and enabled when I viewing PDF-files in my browser.
Therefore:
1. Why has Adobe removed the checkbox where I can disable viewing of PDF-files in my browser?
2. How can I now disable and enable viewing of PDF in my browser?
My operating system is Windows 7 64-bit, and my browser is Internet Explorer 8.
Very thanks.
Regards,
Boholdt

Hi again
I have read the article, but I can still not find the plugin I should
disable in Internet Explorer 8.
If I see a PDF-file in my browser, I can select and disable a plugin called
PDF Adobe Reader, but next time I open Internet Explorer 8, I not can see
the plugin.
Another method is between the guide for accessibility
(edit>Accessibility>Setup Assistant. On screen number 4, you can find the
checkbox.
Since I am blind, I can find the assistant.
For my interessting, it is possible for sighted users of Adobe Reader to
find the same assistant?
Very thanks.
Regards
Boholdt
