Viewing PDF files on the Zire 31

I am using Adobe Reader for Palm OS Mac. When I view a PDF file in detail on the Palm, it automatically converts it to grayscale to save space. However, it is a color map and it is nearly impossible to read in grayscale on the Palm. Is there a way to force it to show in color rather than converting it to grayscale?
Thanks,
Steve

In my case, the problem occured only when I used Firefox.  I followed your advice in that regard and retried opening several pdf's that previously would not display.  All did display in 32-bit mode for FireFox.    Your statement that "We don't support Firefox in 64-bit mode."  and your self-description as "Emploee" lead me to think that you are an Adobe employee.  I'm new to all this, so sorry if my inference about who you are is wrong.  But if it is correct, then your advice would seem to be from-the-source-credible.  I hope that in the future, Adobe will support Firefox in 64-bit mode. 
One question though:  If, as you state, Adobe does not support Safari 5.1 in 64-bit mode,  why haven't I had the same problem displaying pdf's with version 5.1.5 Safari?  Only guess I can make at that is that as of Safari 5.1.5 (vs. Safari 5.1), Adobe does support Safari in 64-bit mode.  Anyway, thank you!  And I hope that in my newness to all this, I haven't confused things too badly.

    It is possible view PDF File from the internet site or my computer in the WebView control?
    thanks,

    I have not tried that, but since JavaFX supports using Swing components I suggest Googling for PDF support for Swing. Swing has been around longer, so PDF support there is more likely.

  • Is there a way to download/view PDF files on the iPad without using another computer?

    I just recently purchased the new iPad. I have also downloaded iBooks and a PDF reader. Is there any way to view and/or download PDF files from my iPad, without using an outside computer? Please help!

    One way is to get the GoodReader app. It has a built in web browser that allows you to web surf and download pdfs into GoodReader. You can read them in the GoodReader app or open them in other apps that can read pdfs.

  • Neither Safari nor Firefox can view PDF files on the web - they appear blank?

    Starting a couple of weeks ago, now when i'm at a web site and I click on a link that is a pdf, the screen is blank dark gray.  I closed Safari and opened firefox and tried to see if that would work.  Firefox also didn't display the pdf, just a blank white page.  It had a note saying I needed to disable some plugin and restart, which I did, but it still doesn't display a pdf.
    any suggestions?  I keep all of my software updated and have Acrobat 9 as part of the CS5 suite on my system.

    Try this...
    Quit your browsers then open the Finder.
    From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy/paste:   /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Click Go then move the Adobe PDF browser plugin to the Trash.
    Relaunch a browser to test.

  • Visual Studio 2013. Viewing a PDF file via the Web Browser control in Windows 8.1

    I am writing a Windows Forms application in which I need to view PDF files via the Web Browser control. When the control is given the Navigate() command, Windows takes over and asks which program I want to open the file with. All was fine with VS 2010 and
    XP. I have un-installed "PDF Complete", which was the default PDF viewer, but I now get asked for an alternative.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Mike,
    It seems that we could use Internet Explorer to open a local .PDF file if it has the Adobe Reader. I doubt that the web control would be related to it. Like the MVP's suggset in the following thread, maybe it would be related
    to certain plug-in tools in your side like the adober reader.

  • Cannot view PDF files within Safari 6.0.1

    I have lost the ability to view PDF files within the safari web browser.  When I press on a link to a PDF file a blank/black screen will appear.  If I right click on the page I have the ability to Save the PDF file and then I can open it in preview. 
    I also have AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin installed in ~Library/Internet Plug ins/ ... folder. 
    I have tried deleting these files and restarting Safari but nothing seems to be working. I have tried installing the PDF Browser plugin form Schubert to no avail
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how can I get the ability to view PDF files in Safari using Moutain Lios OSX?

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    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 launch Safari and test.
    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.

    Hi..
    Go to   /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Move the AdobePDF browser plugin to the Trash.
    Try Safari.
    If you have problems locating the plugin...
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder

  • The acrobat reader that is running cannot be used to view PDF files in a browser

    The subject says it all. I'm unable to open a link to a pdf file.
    I'm using Mozilla on a Win 2000 machine.
    Version 8.1.2 worked fine. I see some people have reverted back to this version. Is that the only fix?

    "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader is running can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser. Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again."
    Here's the simple solution:
    1. Open Adobe 9
    2. Select Help on main Toolbar
    3. Select "Repair Adobe Reader Installation"
    Yes, but make sure that all previous versions of Acrobat and Reader have been removed from your computer.
    I had on Vista Acrobat Reader 5 and 9 because sometimes was problem with printouts in duplex on Acrobat Reader version 7,8 and 9.
    You can have more then one version of adobe reader on your computer.
    I had to uninstall this Acrobat Reader 5 and select Repair Adobe Reader Installation on Adobe Reader 9.3.3 version.
    Success.

  • Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore.  It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version.  Please help?  I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination 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 into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 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.

    See if you can find a NPPDF32.DLL files in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\)
    You can see the installed plugins on the about:plugins page.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/about%3Aplugins
    You can set the pref plugin.expose_full_path to true on the about:config page to see the full path of plugins on the about:plugins page.
    It is best not to leave that pref set to true as it exposes that full path to web servers, so reset that pref to false after you are done with the about:plugins page.
    You can open about:plugins and about:config via the location bar, like you open a website (about: is a special protocol to access some build-in pages).
    If you get a warning when opening the about:config page then you can confirm that you want to continue.
