Viewing PDF in mobile devices

If you create a Pdf using Indesign, import into Acrobat Pro and add text etc.....if you then save the Pdf to email to customers, the text entered using Acrobat Pro does not show in mobile devices!

Thanks for your reply....not sure how to upload a file....it's a very simple Pdf, viewed on a laptop or desktop there's no problem, only mobile devices.
Everything done with Indesign is fine, only some minor text entered using Acrobat does not show.

Opening LiveCycle generated pdf on mobile devices

We have created numerous documents in LiveCycle ES3 so that the forms can be filled in and saved as a PDF, and so that some sections of the form can expand to accept large text blocks when needed. The forms work perfectly when opened on a desktop version of Adobe Reader. They don't open at all when users are attempting to view on a mobile device (Android, I Phone, I pad, etc). The devices have the most current version of Adobe Reader installed, but still get an error message.
Is there any way to save the forms so that they can be read from a mobile device with Adobe Reader? If not, are there any third party apps that will open the forms? They don't need to be able to fill in. The mobile users will only be opening the form and reading it.

Forms designed in LiveCycle Designer ES3 are XFA based forms. They cannot be opened on mobile devices.
LiveCycle ES4 introduced Mobile Forms module which can render the existing XFA form as HTML5. More info here : http://helpx.adobe.com/livecycle/topics/mobile-forms-dev.html

when the form is opened on a computer the contractor can view the fields we have completed, however when viewing from a mobile device or cell phone those fields appear blank. Any suggestions? I am at a total loss as it works when viewing from the computer. I am assuming it is a setting or maybe we need to save it a special way?

What version of Reader are they using, exactly? And are you sure they're
using Reader itself and not opening the file inside a browser window, for
example?

InDesign document as an interactive PDF for mobile devices?

How can I export an InDesign document as an interactive PDF for mobile devices?

Avoid SWF at all cost and export using Adobe PDF (interactive).
The experience will depend on the PDF reader that the user has installed.

Interactive pdf and mobile devices

Hello,
Does Adobe plan to build an Adobe Reader application for mobile devices that allow to read "interactive pdf" ?
Do we have information about the possibility to read perfectly "interactive pdf" on mobiles devices ?

Hi,
The request is a part of our product backlog but we cannot commit to its availability in the immediate future.
Thanks,

Multimedia in PDF on Mobile devices runnig android and iOS6

Hello,
I managed to integrate video (mp4) and also animation (.swf) into a PDF-file. Were are distributing PDFs to our students. Is there any possibility to access the multimedia content using mobile devices? That is tablets running iOS 6, android 4.1 and also e-readers such as kindle paper white?
I tried different readers on iOS and also on android but could not get it to work.
I'm looking forward to get an answer to this question.

In terms of Adobe software, the short answer is "no" and the long answer is "wait and see but don't get your hopes up".
The paid-for third party Android app "ezPDF Reader Multimedia" has some support playback of video and sound annotations, but it doesn't cope with Flash or scripting so the experience in a complex interactive PDF is variable to say the least.
In terms of Flash, there will never be integration into the mobile versions of Reader as the runtime isn't distributed to mobile platforms anymore. About half of the JavaScript API calls are technically possible on Android but JS isn't part of the app yet (we have very limited JS API support on iOS right now, but only for forms-related function calls), Direct playback of embedded RMA media streams (MP3 and H.264) is also technically possible on both platforms (as ezPDF demonstrates), but Adobe have chosen not to make it a priority.

PDF on mobile devices.

Does the PDF created in LC Designer 9.0, extended through Adobe Reader Extension Server, requires a certain version of reader to work on mobile devices?Some customers were trying the PDF on their mobile device versions of Reader and it wouldn't open.
Thanks

Hi,
As Paul says XFA forms are not supported.
XFA Forms don't work (very well) on iOS devices. The passport form you mentioned is probably a Static PDF Form and the target version is probably set for v7.
Even at that the form does NOT fully work across three apps on iOS:
XFA Form in iOS Safari:
XFA Form in iOS PDF Expert:
XFA Form in iOS Adobe Reader:
In all three cases you can see the form, but either some OR all of the functionality is broken.
If the form was saved as a Dynamic XML Form it would be even worse!!! You probably would not even see the form!!!
Maybe you should check out Adobe FormsCentral, for web-based forms that open and work on mobile devices: https://formscentral.acrobat.com/app.html.

Sizing issues when viewing size with mobile device

I'm having issues with Muse resizing my website when used with a mobile device. It cuts off the left and right side for some reason and I'm not sure the reason.
Below is how it should look based normally. It's at a 1024x786 resolution
This is what it looks like on my iPhone 5 (note it cutting off the sides) -- Any help here would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks guys!

The cause of that is because your content is lying beyond the left and right edge of the page in Muse. Please refer below screenshot.
Cheers,
Vikas

Cannot open pdf on mobile device

Hi,
I have a user trying to open a pdf document from our SharePoint 2013 portal (with an Office web apps server in the farm). He is receiving the following message: "Viewing of .pdf files has been disabled in Microsoft Word Mobile viewer". Any ideas
of how this issue can be resolved? Is it a feature that needs to be turned on?
thanks,
Sherazad.

Hi Sherazad,
For your issue , you need to enable Office Web Apps MobileView for PDF files:
Get-SPWOPIBinding -Action "MobileView" –Application "WordPDF" | Remove-SPWOPIBinding -Confirm:$false
New-SPWOPIBinding –ServerName "Server.corp.Contoso.com" -Action "MobileView" –Application "WordPDF" -AllowHTTP
For more information, you can refer to the blog:

Can't view photos from mobile devices on iMac

Ridiculous, asinine question here...
In iOS 8, there is the iCloud settings selection which opens so you can modify what gets saved/backed up to iCloud. On my iPhone 4s (iOS 8) I have the "My Photo Stream" selection toggled to "On" in the "Photos" section in "iCloud Settings". On my iPad 2 (iOS 8), I have the settings configured the same.
This week I took some photos with my iPhone 4s, which I was able to view on my iPad with no problem.
Today, I wanted to view those photos on my iMac (OS X Mavericks), so I opened iPhoto on my iMac for the first time, read and followed the directions from the following articles to set up iPhoto to use iCloud:
My Photo Stream FAQ
http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm68e65fcb20
http://help.apple.com/iphoto/mac/9.5/#pht7aaadf50
In the 3rd article above, it states the following:
Turn on My Photo Stream in iPhoto
Open iPhoto and select iCloud in the Source list.
Click Use iCloud.Any new photos that you import into iPhoto are uploaded to iCloud and added to My Photo Stream. By default, photos already in your photo stream (for example, photos added to My Photo Stream by an iOS device) are also automatically imported into your iPhoto library.
To change your settings for adding photos to My Photo Stream or for importing photos into your iPhoto library, choose iPhoto > Preferences and click iCloud. You can also turn My Photo Stream on and off in iPhoto preferences.
Here's my problem: when I select iCloud in the source list, nothing happens, just still shows this:
Can anyone explain why the viewing area is still blank when it states above "By default, photos already in your photo stream (for example, photos added to My Photo Stream by an iOS device) are also automatically imported into your iPhoto library."
I just re-backed up iCloud on both my iPhone and iPad, but still get the same issue. Also, have quit and restarted iPhoto several times.
Am I missing something, cuz I followed the directions, given by Apple, exactly and those directions do not work.
Or is it the way the help/instructional articles are written, like they aren't detailed enough or don't contain little pieces of information that we should know.
Seems to me like there is a problem somewhere in all the confusion at Apple with the OS & iOS, in regards to the designing and re-designing of and adding of new features then taking them away and just overall constant unnecessary changes that are being made, which in my opinion don't need to be made.
With all of the constant changes, documentation, or lack thereof, and/or any type of online help is not being written or explained in enough detail. Everything I read is very general and vague, then at the same time also repetitive.

Your setup looks correct to me, Chris, provided you are using the same AppleID on your iPhone and iPad.
If photos you take on your iPhone do appear on your iPad, they are in iCloud and should also appear on your Mac.
Your screenshot does not show for me right now. The forum software does not work well with screenshots right now.
It could be a problem with the Mavericks version you are using. Is there a reason,that you do not upgrade to 10.9.5? Photo Stream is usually more robust, if you are using the most recent software versions on all devices.
Try the following: Disable My Photo Stream again in the System Preferences >iCloud > Photos > Options, restart the Computer, and turn it on again in System Preferences and iPhoto.

Opening a blank PDF on mobile devices..

Using an existing and working PDF from a large company and filing in the user fields as needed. Fields are filled in, sent out thru email.. Mobile users open it up and receive a blank PDF, yet desktop users receive a filled in PDF. Any ideas??

Would it be possible to share that PDF form with us? If not, do you know if the form makes use of any javascript code?

Viewing PDF comments on Mobile deivices

Hello!
I have had several clients complain that they cannot see the comments I make on their PDFs when they try to view them on mobile devices. Is there a fix for this or perhaps an app that will enable the comments to show up?

Vaibhav: Yes I was aware of seeing comments if you are already on the page.
My question is: say you put a stickynote next to an important table, definition and also one on a table (all in different pages). If I wanted to see a listing of these comments (without being on their respective page already or knowing the page they are in) Can I pull down a listing of these comments and then choose to go to a specific one.

Discoverer Viewer in mobile devices

Hi,
Is is possible to be shown Oracle Discoverer Viewer contents in mobile devices like iPad or iPhone?

Hi,
I haven't tried this but I don't see why not. Disco Viewer is just HTML pages and if you need to you can configure the look and feel of the pages specifically for mobile devices by changing the UIX files.

Can I install Adobe Pro on a Windows Mobile device?

I have a .pdf that needs to be filled out and saved in the field using a device running Windows Mobile 6.5 OS. I found Adobe Reader for a pocket PC but this does not allow me to save the form. Is there a solution to be able to edit/save a .pdf for mobile devices?
Thanks for your help,

the adobe product that edits pdfs (and is the gold standard for pdf editting software) is acrobat pro and it does not run on windows mobile.
i know there is other pdf editing software but i don't know if they run on win mobile or not. use google to search.
