Watermarks on PDFs on Android tablet

I have a set of Spider-Man CD-ROMs that Marvel released in 2004. They have PDFs with scans of the comic books, and each page includes a large "Marvel" watermark in the middle of the page that is supposed to show up only when printing, to prevent counterfeiting the comics.
This works fine when I view them on a computer. I have tried with Acrobat 11.0.08 and Acrobat Pro 11.0.10 and they work fine.
However, I also have a Samsung Galaxy Tablet that I bought a couple of years ago, and one of the major reasons I got it was so I could more easily read these comics. I have been through several versions of Acrobat Reader on the tablet over the years, and am currently on the latest, 11.7.2, but all of them have the problem that the watermark is visible on the screen. It makes the scans hard to read at times, especially the letters pages.
Is this a known bug with the Android version of Adobe Reader? Are there any plans to fix this? It's quite annoying.
Thank You!
Jeff Morris

P.S. Looks like this same question was asked by someone else in 2012 here:
Re: Looks like "COPY" has been stamped on all pages of PDF file.
He was told to e-mail [email protected] and that is what I did to start with as well, since that's listed as the support address if you look at the details of the app on the tablet. However, that bounced back with a failure message, but additionally sent me an auto reply message, and it said to post here instead of e-mailing.
That question from 2012 is still not marked as answered.

My android tablet won't play videos in a PDF after downloading from flash archive

I downloaded an interactive PDF and there is a video on the last page that won't play on my tablet, but plays on my computer. I downloaded the latest version of Flash from the adobe archives, as well as an updated reader. Any ideas on what I can do to make the video play?

You cannot use Flash content in PDFs on Android, even if you manage to install the obsolete Flash for Android from somewhere. It just isn't supposed to work.

Need Merging PDF forms in Android Tablet (with a twist!)

Hi guys I was wondering if there is anyway to Merge PDF documents in a Android app and keep the repeating information in forms intact. Let me explain. I have a regular form which cilents fill out but some times another form needs to be filled out also which have the repeating fields like name, date of birth, etc. I know that it is possible to do it in in Acrobat X Pro where you combine two PDF documents and as long as the form field is the same name or copied and pasted in the two seperate PDFs , information repeats itself automatically. However I was wondering if there is a way to do this on an android tablet (Motorola Xoom for me). I have tried apps that merge 2 seperate documents however the information from those that would normally repeat in Acrobat X on a regular computer does not do so in PDF merging apps I tried. I normally use qPDF and ezpdfreader but they don't seem to have a merging of two documents option (Or i don't know/can't find one). So any help? Any useful app I don't know about that can some my dilemia? Thanks ahead !

Hi,
i know this is rather late, but based on what I've read online, it seems your issue is common among pdf form apps on the Android. From what i hear, qPDF Notes works well, but doesn't allow calculations. My guess is that the app developer hasn't loaded/programmed the necessary scripts in order to achieve calculations.

PDF Form not working properly on an Android Tablet.

I've created a PDF fillable form with Indesign CS5, which works on desktop devices, but the 'Form Field Titles' did not appear when the PDF is viewed on an Android Tablet. Does anyone have a similar problem?

Adobe LiveCycle geschützte PDF ePaper mit Android-Tablet lesen

Hallo, ich besitze ein Android Tablet (4.04) und versuche PDF Dateien (Zeitungen) der Onleihe zu lesen. Der Android Adobe-Reader (10.5) bringt eine Fehlermeldung, dass der Remote-Server edc.biliothek-digital.de derzeit nicht erreichbar ist und ich es später probieren soll. Über den PC ist der Server ohne Probleme erreichbar. Funktioniert das seit Ende 2011 im Android Adobe-Reader implementierte LiveCycle-Schutz-Management nicht oder ist das nur ein Problem mit den Onleihe-Bibliotheken? Bin dankbar für einen Hinweis.
Roli60

Hi Dennis,
Thanks for the response. This is interesting because I went through the process of testing the LiveCycle generated form (ES2) on my personal Android device before my company invested in the Sony units. Since the update has happened, the form no longer works on my personal device or the Sony’s of course. I’ve tried the different export settings and each time, no luck. A refund would be greatly appreciated since I purchased the product to continue the work at home on my personal laptop. Please advise on what the process is for a refund.
Thank you,

Unable to see pdf from a web browser on a android tablet

I recently brought the toshiba tablet to use for uni. Uni puts pdfs on the web site (lecture notes) when i click into the pdf on my tablet it opens to a blank screen. I was wondering if it was my adobe reader and if so how do i change this so i can see the pdfs ?? I have tried other browser an they do the same thing..

This sounds like a great feature. Taking a picture and uploading to a printing service. On a computer, you normally get a "Finder" that lets you traverse your hard drive for files to upload. Since the iPhone is OSX you would think you could do that. But if not, it would be cool if you could select you photos to upload them, but then only uploading photos would work, so if you found a site that would let you upload a file (not a picture) it wouldn't work. Another application, say you are on vacation. You take some pictures and want to put them on a website. Of course then you would need to be able to upload files (html), etc. Oh well.

Fillable forms on non-networked android tablets

I want to use fillable, pdf forms on our Android tablets to record practical test results for our students. These forms are filled out by instructors for each individual student. At the end of the day, the forms are to be downloaded to a stand alone PC for grading and further review.
How can I save each individual test form as a separate file on the Android tablets. I have searched for a solution but have found nothing but a kludgy workaround. The tablets and grading PC are not networked which further compounds the issue...
The ultimate goal is to allow an instructor to grade a student, save the grade sheet (form) as "studentname.pdf" then move on to grading the next student "studentname2.pdf". At the end of the day he would download (via usb) upwards to 5 grade sheets to our grading PC for further review.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks for any help!
BTW, is there a reason "save as" is not a feature in the Android acrobat reader?

Hi,
Unfortunately, the 'Save as' functionality is not available for Adobe Reader on Android. As a workaround, you can make multiple copies(duplicates) of the pdf form with different names (like studentname.pdf) and then fill out the forms individually. Please let us know if this is not a viable solution for you.
Thanks,

PDFs for Android

Am I right in thinking that if I publish a folio with PDF stacks on Google Play, the folio won't download because Android devices don't support PDFs?
If so, is there a solution for being able to publish folios that contain PDFs to Android, which have already been published to the iPad?
Thanks

Hi Jamie,
The PDF to Folio converter solves your problem.
The PDF to Folio converter allows you to take an existing pdf and turn it into a digital magazine application.
The workflow is very simple and extremely fast. Upload an exising pdf to the PDF to Tablet website. The PDF
is converted into a Folio file and will be placed in your Adobe DPS account. The digital magazine application
has all functionalities such as navigating by swiping the pages, zooming in on pages by the pinch and release
gesture, a table of contents and the landscape and portrait mode.
If you send me an e-mail I can send you the product sheet.
Best regards,
Tristan van Doorn

Dynamic forms for an android tablet - please help!

Until this week I knew nothing about Acrobat, LiveCycle or javascript! I bought the software midweek and have spent several days struggling to create a dynamic PDF form. It needs to be dynamic because I want our staff, when interviewing new clients, to be presented with different dropdown selections, depending on the answers to earlier questions. I've finally managed to crack this problem, only to run into another. I want this form to be deployed on Android tablets, and neither of the readers which I have tried - Adobe Reader and EZ PDF - will open a dynamic PDF file. I can save it as a static file instead and open it quite happily on the tablet, but then I lose the functionality.
Can anyone suggest a way round this or have I been wasting my time?
I'd be most grateful for any help.

Hi,
I'm afraid there is currently no work around as the support of XFA forms is very, very limited.
Especially dynamic features are not supported by any PDF viewer on Android and iOS devices.
Maybe Adobe Reader will support more of the XFA features in the future, but only maybe.

What adobe product should I use on an Android tablet to view and edit maintenance drawings?

I plan to provide our maintenance staff Android tablets with all our equipment documentation loaded in PDF format. I would like for them to be able to note changes, corrections, additions, etc. I would also like for them to be able to associate / link photos of the equipment with the appropriate documentation. I am not sure what Adobe application will meet these requirements and hope someone can provide advice and suggestions.

I'd like another player because I've had it with Adobe. I've spent hours and hours trying to get Shockwave & Flash to work after recent updates in those programs. I tested them out in Google Chrome, and still problems although fewer than in FF.
What is going on with these products? Everytime I run an update of FF or Shockwave/Flash, everything gets screwed up!!

Support for dynamic forms using javascript for android tablet

I have some complex multipage pdf forms with javascript functions and calculations made in Acrobat X Standard, I can open and use parts of the form in ezyPDF android app, however the javascript is not fully supported, does anyone know of any plug ins or work arounds to view my forms on an android tablet, my forma have to be stand alone as internet access is not always available.
Regards Mike

Get to know CF's structure / array notation. This comes in
very handy when dealing with queries and form fields.
- Form.myFieldName can also be referenced by
Form["myFieldName"]
- MyQuery.myField can also be referenced by
MyQuery["myField"][rowNumber]
Anything in the above example surrounded by quotation makes
can be made dynamic by just adding in a cf variable surrounded by
pound signs:
get_dealer_completion["level_#level_id#"][1]

Hi,
Given your ptinter supports print from Android, you need an app called HP ePrint. Please use Google Store to install it:

WiFi Tether Your Android Tablet to Your Cell Phone - LG Marquee Boost Mobile Example

Greetings Earthlings and Android Fans....
Just posted this to my blog and wanted to share a text version here. Check it out if you're looking to tether your tablet to your cell phone. I tethered my Thrive to my Boost Mobile LG Marquee.
From: Kaio's Klassroom: WiFi Tether Your Android Tablet to Your Cell Phone - LG Marquee Infrastruct...
Want to tether your tablet to your cell phone, but Ad-Hoc got you down? How about trying this nifty little tweak that got me up in running in a jiffy!!
I recently got a new LG Marquee Prepaid Phone with Boost Mobile @Amazon and I really love it. Only problem is, I was spoiled with my last phone because it was rooted to support Infrastructure tethering and I had no idea how difficult and unusual that was. I've since done some research with my new Boost Mobile LG Marquee, and after a little trial and error (and some lucky Google searches) I have successfully tethered my LG Marquee to my Toshiba Thrive tablet!!!
Here's what I did:
Mandatory Disclaimer - The following information is for informational purposes only. Proceed at your own risk!!! Rooting will void your warranty and could "brick" your phone if you do something wrong!! So if you damage your phone, or any of your tech, that's on you.
NOTE: If you don't have an LG Marquee, just search "your phone model" + "root" and you should find plenty of information specific to your phone. There's always people wanting to do the same thing you are, so it's just a matter of finding the information that's already out there. Once your phone is rooted, come back here and start on Step 2.
Step 1 -- Root your LG Marquee (You do NOT need to root your Tablet)
The following information was taken from LG Cell Phones Blog and are for the LG Esteem, which is a generic root mod.
> Enable USB Debugging on your LG Marquee: Go to Settings > Applications > Development > Enable Debugging and check the box.
> Download and install the LG USB drivers at: LG Cell Phones Blog You want the file "LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN32AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3. 2.1_2.exe"
> After installing the USB drivers connect your phone to a PC. On the phone, pull down the notification bar at the top of the phone's screen and click on USB Connected. Set the phone to Internet Connection mode (CHARGE ONLY not Mass Storage).
> Download "LG_Esteem_Root.zip" at: LG Cell Phones Blog. Unzip the file and double-click on the run.bat file.
Note: Kaspersky Internet Security will flag this file as a Trojan: "Exploit.Linux.Lotoor.ag" I don't believe this file is a Trojan, per se. I believe it's required during the root process. When I let Kaspersky eliminate the file, my phone wouldn't root. So I decided to run the root program on a secondary computer, just in case. I disabled Kaspersky temporarily on that computer, and ran the root zip and my phone rooted without a hitch. I later scanned my phone with Webroot Security and AVG, and neither found any viruses on my phone, so I believe the process is safe. Technically, rooting your phone probably does involve a Trojan hack, hence why Kaspersky flags that file. However, I must reiterate to proceed at your own risk.
Just in Case -- How to Unroot Sprint LG Marquee:
Use root explorer and delete superuser.apk from the /system/app folder. Go to the Android market and download and install super user. Use root explorer again and delete su from /system/bin. Go to the market and uninstall super user. Do a factory reset & you will be back to square one.
Step 2 -- Verify that you have properly rooted your phone with this nifty free app: Root Checker Basic
If you did everything right, you should get a message that says "Congratulations, this device has root access." If you fail to get that message, go back to Step 1.
Step 3 -- Download the Android WiFi Tether for root users app
Currently, the only version of Android WiFi Tether that worked for me was 3.1-beta7. The newest version doesn't work properly with tablets, so be sure to get 3.1-beta7. Here's a link and QR code for easy access: WiFi Tether 3.1-beta7 apk
Step 4 -- Configure WiFi Tether app:
I've tried many settings, but these are the only ones that have worked. Start the app and grant Super User Permissions. Then Click Menu to get into the app's setting. Inside the Settings, do the following:
> Change Device Profile to: Samsung Galaxy S
> Change Setup Method to: Netd (Master)
> Enable WiFi Encryption: Check box to Enable
> Change Pass Phrase to: any 13 digit password of your choice.
> Change SSID to: any name of your choice.
> Change Channel to: 4 (2427mhz)
> Disable Update Check: Check box to Disable.
> Click your phone's Back Arrow to Exit back to the app's Main Screen
> Touch the WiFi button onscreen to start tethering.
> Grant Super User Permissions
Note: If you get Error Code 67, Click Dismiss. If you update, I don't know what will happen; my guess is it will disable the ability to tether. But if I click Dismiss, my tethering is Enabled, and works perfectly.
Step 5 -- Grab Your Tablet & Start Tethering
> Go to Settings > Wireless & Networks > Check the box to Enable WiFi > Click WiFi Settings > Under WiFi Networks, find the SSID for your tethering app that you entered in Step 4 above. > Click on the SSID of your tethering app > Enter the 13 digit Pass Phrase you created in Step 4 above and Click Connect.
That's it! Congratulations -- your tablet should now be tethered to your cell phone!
Now that you're tethered to your cell phone, be smart, and DON'T download a ton of gigabytes. Just be smart about it, and you should be fine. Remember, tethering to your cell phone probably goes against the terms of service with your cell phone carrier, so DON'T abuse the privilege.
Now that you're the envy of all your friends, why not test your data speeds: SpeedTest App - FreeMy data speed test results with my Toshiba Thrive tablet tethered to my LG Marquee:
Download: 855kbps Upload: 302kbps
That's pretty great for a 3g no-contract cell phone with unlimited data.
Happy tethering everyone!
Go forth and Androidify!
Hugs, Kaio
