"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.

  • 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 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.

  • Adobe Pdf Printer stopped working after update to Acrobat DC

    Hello, I have installed Acrobat DC yesterday. Since then, Adobe Pdf Printer stopped working. It always gets stuck at Checking Fonts and any software the print originated from just hangs and I have to force it closed.
    I tried uninstalling the printer and installing it manually, repairing Acrobat installation but nothing changed.
    So, can somebody help me? Thanks.

    A method which is written here not working - because if you start to remove the fonts one by other you will see that the list does not end there.
    I did so
    1. i copied the folder with the fonts from the other clean system and replace with fonts in my system
    2. then i restore the registry tree HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts
    3. i check system with sfc /scannow
    after these procedures Distiller DC continue to crash...
    In this time distiller crashed when it cheking their fonts in C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Acrobat DC\Resources\Font
    after i rename the folder from Font to Font_ in order to he did not check this folder
    at next run Distiller crashed at the font wingding.ttf after remowing that font he crash at Vrinda.ttf (this is a oficial font of Win7 and come with him) after removing that font distiller crash at the next font name of Vani.ttf (this is a Win7 font too) - when i saw it goes on forever i back my system to normal status and uninstal Acrobat DC and back to Acrobat XI...this version work with out any problems.
    We are waiting a hotfix to resolving this problem with Acrobat DC

  • Adobe PDF printer stopped working

    Hello!
    Windows XP Pro
    Acrobat Standard 8.1.3
    Office XP
    InDesign CS3
    Problem with Adobe PDF printer. It used to work fine, but it stopped working last week, whatever application I use to print. The "PDF Creation" window appears, the process seems to start, but suddenly stops in the middle, with with the word "stopped" in the progress box. I tried the repair feature of Acrobat, with no change, then completely uninstalled Acrobat (and deleted the Acrobat 8 folder), but again no luck...
    Any hint as to what I can do to fix this?
    Thanks in advance
    François

    I just did the following, in sequence:
    I printed-to-file a document to Adobe PDF printer from Word, and opened the resulting .prn file. The conversion worked. In Distiller, I get this:
    Source : extendedloan.prn
    Destination : I:\Texte\extendedloan.pdf
    Options Adobe PDF : H:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe PDF\Settings\Standard.joboptions

    **** Fin du travail ****
    I then tried to print the document (.doc) from Word to Adobe PDF Printer, and got this in Distiller:
    Adobe PostScript :3016.102
    CID support library initialization completed.
    Error in PDFX4 2007.joboptions:

    I then tried to print a test file from Printer Properties, and got this from Distiller:

  • I am having a problem opening pdf document.  I get error message: "Adobe Reader has stopped working"

    I am having a problem opening pdf document.  I get error message: "Adobe Reader has stopped working" then I get Windows is looking on line for a solution, but then my document closes. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Reader XI, rebooted my computer but this did not help.  I get the same message. What to do?

    Can you open Reader by itself?  If so, check if disabling Protected Mode improves the situation [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

    I have Acrobat 9.5 and when I try to create>pdf from scanner, it displays an error "Adobe acrobat has stopped working". Is there any way I can use this functionality?

    Provide you have Acrobat 9 installed in an OS for which Acrobat 9 is compatible then you can use the functionality.
    As well, you need a scanner connected, powered up, and the software installed. Acrobat 9 "prefers" TWAIN drivers.
    Always visit the scanner vendor's site and download - install the latest greatest software.
    n.b., The Acrobat 9.x product family passed into "End of Support" mid-year 2013.
    As well the Acrobat 9.x product family is not compatible with contemporary OSs.
    Be well...

    RR,
    One thing often tried first is to create a new document and File>Place the corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way (remember to tick Paste remembers Layers in the Layer palette flyout/dropdown first, and to untick it afterwards).
    Here is a website where you can see whether it can rescue the file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,
    http://www.recoverytoolbox.com/buy_illustrator.html
    and another similar website,
    http://markzware.com/adobe-software/fix-illustrator-file-unknown-error-occurred-pdf2dtp-fi le-recovery/
    As far as I remember, the former is for Win and the latter for Mac.
    Here are a few pages about struggling with it yourself:

    Failing a full recovery, hopefully you have one or more earlier versions and/or bits of artwork saved before it happened.

    Hi Ricci,
    Since when are you facing this issue? Did you tried system restore to a date before this problem occured.
    Does acrobat stop working when you open this specific pdf file or with any pdf file that you open?

  • With APTT and Adobe Reader QTP spy on a PDF document causes Adobe Reader to stop working

    Hi,
    We have the below configurations,
    QTP Version 11
    Adobe Reader 10.1.2
    Adobe PDF Test Toolkit for Adobe Reader 10.1.1 onwards
    Windows 7 64 bit OS
    Internet Explorer 8
    QTP shows AcroQTP in the Add-in page.
    But when an object Spy is done on a PDF document we get the message "Adobe Reader has stopped working" and it crashes.
    Please provide me a solution for this problem
    Thanks,
    Kruthika.

    Hi
    We have lately found that due to some of our changes in Reader 10.1.2 release, the plugins have broken.
    They still continue to work with Adobe Reader 10.1.0 and 10.1.1 ON ANY ENVIRONMENT WITH ANY QTP VERSION.
    For the time being, before Adobe roll out a fix, we would suggest you not to upgrade the Adobe Reader versions.
    Thanks and Regards

  • Can't open PDFs, Initially received runtime error,updated Reader - new error Adobe Reader has stopped working, uninstalled re-installed same error message Adobe Reader has stopped working

    Can't open PDFs, Initially received runtime error,updated Reader - new error Adobe Reader has stopped working, uninstalled re-installed same error message Adobe Reader has stopped working

    Assuming that you are in Win (which you haven't said), you can try using this tool to first remove all traces of previous versions of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, download the full offline Reader installer from 
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    and run it immediately after restarting your computer.

  • Why does my Adobe Reader DC stop working when I click scroll down options?

    I used to use PDF Suite 2014 Standard to view pdf files.
    However, tonight a message appeared when I attempted to open files saying ..."if the document does not load then the pdf viewer may not be able to display this type of document"
    I went to the website provided to download Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
    Although I was able to load pdf documents and fill in forms, the program repeatedly would crash whenever I attempted to click on scroll down options on forms.
    Any help is appreciated
    ....and talk/write slowly for I am not super computer literate.
    Regards,

     Dear Aedesh, Thank you for your assistance.  I did all that you instructed below, regarding uninstalling, and using the Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool.  I restarted my computer, then installed Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (for Windows 7, English and version: Reader DC 2015). I continue to have the problems: (1) When I attempt to use a scroll down option within a pdf form, the program stops working. (2) If I send the pdf to my iPhone, and I open the pdf, I receive the message "Please wait...if the message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your pdf viewer may not be able to display this type of document..." However, when I send pdf's created earlier than 4-28-15, I am able to open in my iPhone.I am able to open on my laptop the pdf's created after 4-28-15, but have the scroll option issue  (thank you in advance for your patience)Luisa

  • While trying to open printer properties, Adobe Photoshop CC stopped working. How can we resolve this?

    Hi everyone,
    I've some problems about Adobe CC Series. For example, when I'm working in Photoshop then try to open printer properties, Adobe photoshop cc stopped working. Illustrator and InDesign have same problem. I've not got this problem in Adobe CS6 Series. Can you help me pleae?

    Hi Gguadagno,
    For the problem that the issue is not happening on a different Account, Adobe does have a KB trying to save your orriginal account:
    Windows:http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-unexpected-behavior-user-account-2. html
    Mac:  http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/troubleshoot-unexpected-behavior-user-account.ht ml
    Folowing these steps should actually result in either that you are able to work on your original Account, or that you at least did everything possible (according to Adobe) to save your account.
    You should not be required to use a Second Email for using Photoshop, This does not make much sense, Your AdobeID and OS Account are (or at least should) not (be) linked to eachother.
    Hopefully this will help you to work with the original Account again.

  • Adobe reader has stopped working, any solutions?

    I am having an issue with Adobe reader X.
    I open the program and it works normally, nothing to repport.
    Each time I close the program I receive the error message "Adobe Reader has stopped working)
    I am on Win 7 (32bit) SP1
    any ideas/solutions for this situation?
    Thank you in advance

    I have been having this problem recently (Vista HP fully updated 32 bit) with Reader X. This was a clean install and no 3rd party reg cleaners etc have ever been used. I use Microsoft Security Essentials.
    This problem seems intermitent. Yesterday it happened nearly every time I closed a pdf. Today it hasn't done it once so far. When the problem first happened a week or so back I tried the solutions offered (turn off protected mode) and it did not work. I tried "repair Adobe install" and that too did nothing. Windows problem reports keep saying Adobe updates available... they are not.
    Apart from the message saying that it crashed on closing there is no outward sign of anything amiss. I did however open task manager while the error box was still displayed and it showed two Adobe processes as still running. When I used the error box option to "close program" these processes ended.
    I can't help but feel these problems coincided with a recent round of updates although that may of course, be just that, a coincidence.
