I just bought a new iMac with Lion and would like to know which software is required to read pdf files?

  • Which version of Adobe Acrobat is needed to read .pdf files on the iPhone?

    I have Blackbaud's iBBDemo4.exe iPhone simulator for Windows XP. I'm trying to view/read various .pdf files with it. I received an error message that says, "file uses a new format that is not supported by the current version of Acrobat." Does anyone know which Acrobat version is needed for .pdf files on the iPhone and/or iPhone simualtor?

    The iPhone has it's own built in PDF reader, and doesn't need Adobe Reader. So if your simulator software isn't working then I suggest you contact Blackbaud's support. Besides, Adobe doesn't make an iPhone version of Reader.

  • Need help with workflow: New iMac with SSD & HDD and Pegasus Promise

    Hello everyone! I've decided to upgrade my iMac and ordered an i7 with the SSD and HDD drive configuration as well as the Pegasus Promise 12TB drive. I've been researching as to what's the best way to manage both the SSD and HDD drives and I really haven't seen an end-all answer. Now with the purchase of the Pegasus Promise, I'm more confused as to what's the best approach to take. Here are my thoughts:
    1. Use the SSD as the boot and application drive and the HDD for the users folder.
    2. Use the SSD as the boot and application drive, the HDD for the users folder, and photos and pics onto the Pegasus.
    3. Use the SSD as the boot and application drive, the Pegasus for the users folder, and the HDD for ???
    4. Just use the Pegasus drive as the boot drive and use it for everything. (being that it's a RAID drive, then all my files are backed-up already)
    Majority of my space-filling files are my iTunes folder, tons of pictures from using Aperture, and iMovie for videos.
    Thanks in advance for everyone's input and help!

    I'm working on a similar premise.  i7, SSD, HDD, Promise raid, etc.
    I'm nowhere near as savvy as a lot of the people here, but after a lot of research I decided that focusing on how the Pegasus gets configured is the most important for me.  My concerns are for a business in photography, btw.
    I can't budget the 12TB unit so I'm trying to make the most of either the R4-8tb or th R6-6tb.
    I'm planning to launch the applications from the SSD.  I will use the Mac HDD for typical non-photographic files, iTunes (mine's not so big), and standard fair.  This is all backed up via Time Machine to a 3TB Western Digital MyBook for the time being. 
    As for the Pegasus, I believe I've settled on: taking an R6-6tb unit, placing the 6th drive in my firesafe from the moment I get it.  Configuring the remaining 5 drives in a level 5 setup.  Leaves me 4TB to get started and buys me a few succesful quarters to plan on daisy chaining another unit when memory is needed.  This way, I may not have maximum possible drive space, but I've got a replacement drive on the ready should I experience a drive-failure.  Then, I'm not sitting on pins and needles while I await a replacement; they'll simply be shipping me a new "spare".
    I still need to actually speak to someone @ Promise to make sure this will work, as I stated: I"m learning as I go here.  If this is an acceptable Raid setup, you would have 8TB available to you.
    Personally, I am far more comfortable running systems in series and building the size as I go (to a point) than putting so much data in a single array.
    [Edit] The raid bay is mainly for the Lightroom catalog, and I use standard external drives to store redundant backups off-site (1TB at a time).

  • Is it possible to read PDF file data by using Webdynpro Abap?

    Hi,
    I have an requirement, where customer will upload an PDF file on an application and i need to read some data from pdf file.
    The pdf file contains only text data in tabular format.
    In past i developed an application for uploading data from Excelshet by using WDA . But just wondering, whether it is possible to upload the data from Pdf file also. ( Also if not possible then what could be other way to read PDF file data in abap)
    Regards
    PG

    NB - the "data" that is returned by these classes is the data as defined in an adobe form - it doesn't return the content of non-form PDF documents.
    The PDF must be an interactive form ( although that doesn't restrict you to using the SAP process for creating the form is my understanding - but I could be wrong. )
    Edit - I was wrong! ONLY PDF documents that have been created by the ADS can have data extracted using these classes. So unless you are using Adobe interactive forms - then you will get no value from this functionality - and if you're using AIF then you're probably just use the standard UI element

  • Unable to read PDF files created by FTP Adapter

    Hi,
    I am unable to read pdf files generated by FTP Adapter with its default settings.
    Can anybody guide me how to proceed with it. I guess I need to change something in encoding mechanism in FTP Adapter Outbound Connection Pool, but not sure what has to be.
    Thanks,
    Richa

    Hi all,
    I have got its solution. I was unable to read .pdf files because FTP adapter  was sending the files just by changing the extension from .txt /.xml to .pdf that is the reason that it was not readable.
    We had to write an java code to convert .xml file to .pdf file and then paas it to FTP ADapter.
    Thanks

  • Wht abobe package do i need to install to enable SQL Server to read .pdf files?

    Need to open pdf files with sql server.

    If you are wanting to extract data from PDF forms, you would not do it from the PDF but from a data file like FDF. Adobe has the FDF Toolkit to help on working with FDF files and sending the information to a database.

  • Having compatiblity issues with adobe reader.  What pdf file software should I use with Mac

    Having problem with Adobe reader what software works well on mac for pdf file creation/reading and sending via email.  Also how do I uninstall adobe reader so that all hints of it are erased.

    To remove the Adobe PDF Reader:
    1. Drag the Adobe Reader folder from the Applications folder to the Trash
    2. Remove AdobePDFViewer.plugin from the Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder
    Macs offer good PDF capability in the operating system. You can use Word or other program to create somthing you want to save/send in PDF format, then choose print, click on the PDF button at the bottom of the print window, where you can choose to email the PDF file.

    I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here
    == When I download and try to read a .pdf file and when I am asked to turn off all Firefox files and if I do, I lose them since I need to know how to save them without rebooting my computer.

    Brilliant! Problem solved! Thanks so much.

  • Adobe flash player and reading pdf files.

         I've recently been having issues with Safari reading online pdf files and loading up sites using adobe flash player.
         I've somehow tracked down a temporary solve by going into Safari's "preferences", then the security tab.
         Where it shows "internet plug-ins" I have it checked so it can load adobe flash. But when it comes to reading pdf files (adobe reader)
         I have to uncheck "internet plug ins". So in turn I can read the pdfs, but not use adobe flash player.
         There seems to be a conflict between the adobe reader and flash player that I can use both at the same time.
         Any suggestions on how to correct this issue?
         Here's a screenshot of what I have. And if I have to delete one of these plug-ins how can I do this as I don't see any options to do so.

    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 PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer 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 (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.

  • Need to replace pdf file on existing website. Please help!

    Our intern left this summer and we're clueless about Dreamweaver. We have a Spry Menu with a link to a pdf file of our employment application. Our application has been revised, and we need to replace it on the website.
    From what we have gathered, Spry Menu Widget is no longer available to download and we are unable to change the link to a new file via the widget because intern took his laptop with the widget installed.
    So to make do, I have downloaded the files from the website to my Local folder, deleted the old employment application pdf file and have replaced it with the new application with the exact same file name as the old one.
    My question is.... If I highlight the new application in our local folder and click upload, should this make the link in the menu bar go to the new application?
    Thanks for you help in advance!

    Ok, sure. So we needed to replace a pdf file that was linked from our spry menu bar. We didn't have the widget and didn't think we could download it, so we went to the folder on the bottom right hand side of the screen and opened the remote folder. We then highlighted all of those files except for the / file at the very top. We then clicked the down arrow to copy those files into our local folder. Once they were downloaded, we went into the local folder and found the file we needed to switch out. We then deleted that file, named our new file the exact same file name, and clicked and dragged it from our computer onto the same folder that contained the file we deleted. We then highlighted that file, right clicked and chose "PUT", as Jon had instructed us to do above. It uploaded the file. When it was finished, we checked our website and got an error because the pages wouldn't load. However, a few minutes later we tried again and everything worked perfectly. The new pdf file had replaced the old one and still linked properly from the menu bar.

    What exactly is "it"; can you post a screenshot of that?
    Other things you can try...
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html
    ...or wait and see if the next Reader version fixes the problem (likely to be released later today).

  • How do I modify an Adobe Reader pdf file?

    Ok.

    What do you mean "edited". Edited how - just typing in form fields?
    Where do you get the word count?
    > Is this hypotheses correct? the student should purchase the pdf writer in order to complete fields correctly.
    Not possible to say at this stage. (The "writer" product by the way is
    called Acrobat Standard or Acrobat Professional, if it turns out you
    do need it..
    >I cannot find references anywhere about word count in the knowledge base or FAQ.
    From my point of view, this is because it isn't something Reader does.
    But clearly it does something - so... what does it do?

  • I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

    I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

    The application Acrobat provides no language translation capability.
    If you localize the language for OS, MS Office applications, Acrobat, etc to the desired language try again.
    Alternative: transfer a copy of content into a web based translation service (Bing or Google provides a free service).
    Transfer the output into a word processing program that is localized to the appropriate language.
    Do cleanup.
