When will Adobe Reader for Mobile Devices support 3D PDF files?
When will Adobe Reader for Mobile Devices support 3D PDF files?
There are two basic varieties of LiveCycle XFA...Static XFA and Dynamic XFA, which are very different in terms of their future for potential support in Adobe Reader for iOS. Which variety of XFA are you using?
Static XFA uses the PDF markup language for content and form fields, so users can view the documents in Adobe Reader for iOS, but we currently do not properly handle filling, saving, and submitting those forms. I have improving our handling of Static XFA on my roadmap, but cannot offer any specific date yet (sorry, policy plus actual uncertainty). I know that there are some other apps that partially support Static XFA, though I do not know how complete their support is. If you can even open the XFA document in Adobe Reader for iOS, it is likely Static XFA.
Dynamic XFA is effectively a JavaScript application packaged inside a PDF wrapper, which generates layout and form fields via code and requires a significant engine to support this. Support for Dynamic XFA is unfortunately not currently on our roadmap for iOS due to the nature of the technology, and our concern that any implementation we try likely will not pass Apple's restriction against installing something that allows other "apps" to be downloaded and executed from within it. The LiveCycle team is exploring solutions for our enterprise customers wanting to use Dynamic XFA from mobile devices as part of their server offering, but I cannot offer any insight here. To my knowledge, there are no applications that handle Dynamic XFA other than Adobe Reader for the desktop platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux).

When will Adobe Reader support interactive PDF elements on iOS?
When will Adobe Reader support interactive PDF elements on iOS? I don't want to hear the line that Apple won't allow Flash. Adobe needs to get a workaround PRONTO! We need detection of simple buttons and support for Mp4 and f4v - as exported inline by inDesign when creating PDFs.
Pat Willener, Thank you for your message. I have done what you suggest. I could have sworn I started this topic in the general Adobe Reader discussion. So I have also placed a copy back where I thought I first had it so it can be found by other Windows users who, like me, are creating PDF files because they are meant to comply with an international cross-platform standard and not simply be the domain of one platform over the other.
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature: Support for interactive PDFs
How would you like the feature to work? When I add a transparent frame containing a basic Adobe Media encoded mp4 or f4v video, export to interactive PDF from Adobe InDesign, I want the PDF and its interactive videos to work on iPads. See an example file here: ***EXAMPLE PROVIDED*** Click the lefthand top and bottom corners to bring up interactive video elements which should open in floating window, maximized, then have an exit button to close and continue reading the PDF. Of course, this does not function under Adobe Reader for iOS. You also need to attend to audio files embedded in the same way and allow an exit button to close the audio window so the reader can continue reading the PDF on Windows.
Why is this feature important to you? I create eReaders for schools across the whole country and they are taking up iPads at an unprecedented rate. If Adobe do not produce a solution for interactive PDFs on iOS then I will no longer use InDesign, Acrobat, Adobe Media Encoder or Photoshop to create works in the future. You're looking at a massive education market that will leave Adobe behind if this is not acted upon very very soon. For some publishers it's already too late and they have moved to app based creation tools. -
When will Adobe Reader support annotating pdf documents on a microSD card in lollipop android?
I really like Adobe Reader for annotation of pdf files on an external microSD cards in phones and tablets. Android Kitkat took access away. Android Lollipop gave it back.
When will Adobe Reader support annotating files on external micoSD cards in Lollipop?Thanks for your request. We have noted it down for consideration.
Thanks,

I recently purchased a Dell Venue 11 Pro tablet and installed Adobe Reader Touch so that I could view, fill-in, save, and print PDFs. I do have the newest version (2.0), but whenever I try to save/save as after filling in a form, it won't let me. I can print the PDF....but cannot save it. I am aware (or think) that this function is a newer feature for this app....but cannot understand why it is not working for me. Can someone please explain why I am running into this issue? Should I be able to perform this task with the 2.0 version....or are these functions not available yet?
Thank you for any guidance!There is a special subforum for the Touch version of Reader:

When will Adobe Lightroom support tethering for Nikon D810?
I am wondering when will adobe support Nikon D810. Aperture already supports it...what is holding Adobe to add tethering for D810?
My guess is that Nikon writes the tethering driver for Apple so it is ready very quickly, whereas Adobe has to wait for an SDK then wait for their own resources to finish coding and I imagine it is messy and low priority so it takes a while.

When will Adobe Reader for iOS support Livecycle XFA forms?
Adobe Reader for iOS currently does not appear to support XFA forms created through Livecycle. Although it supports some field types, the HTTP submit and Email submit buttons don't work.
Being able to email the completed form ready for someone else to submit would be a work around, however when attempting to 'share' a completed form and send it by email the form is blank when saved and opened in the desktop version of Adobe Reader on a PC.
We are getting more and more requests from ipad users who wish to use our forms, and it seems that some other paid-for apps claim to support this. Seeing as Adobe Reader is the industry standard product for using PDFs could we have more support for pdf forms please?
...or at the very least, a product roadmap with some dates for when this might be available please?There are two basic varieties of LiveCycle XFA...Static XFA and Dynamic XFA, which are very different in terms of their future for potential support in Adobe Reader for iOS.

When will I get an app for adobe flash player?
To print crosswords I need adobe flash player and the site tells me none are available for my iPad. When will apple have one ready?
No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash. Adobe is not providing Flash for Apple iOS devices, and they no longer provide Flash for any other cellular phones. Flash is officially gone.
Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
A sample of Apps that can display some Flash content:
1. Puffin
2. SkyFire
3. Photon Flash
4. Browse2Go
5. Swifter
Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that." -
Error when starting Adobe reader 11 App-V package
How do I disable Acrobat reader for checking if the ARM Service is present?
I have created an app-v 5.0 package for Acrobat reader 11. When I run the package on the sequencer I don't have any issues. When I run it on my test machine I get a pop-up stating "There was an error during installation. An internal
error occurred."
I have already tried removing the reg keys in the package that refer to ARM, but this hasn't worked.
Is there a step I need to take before sequencing that will resolve this?

ThanksAdobe has an how-to for that;
http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/AdminGuide/appv.html, though it doesn't refer to the ARm service. Firthermore it is written for App-V 4.x,
so the steps may be a little bit different.

Adobe reader XI can't open mp3 files in a pdf document- says the required decoder not installed
Adobe reader XI can't open mp3 file links contained in a pdf - it says the required decoder is not installed
please help!This is not a function of Reader, but that your computer does not seem to be configured to play mp3 files. Try fixing your file associations. The method of doing so depends upon your OS and it version number.

As a result of this I cannot use any apps or games that need Adobe Air installed on my tablet! It keeps saying "Package file is invalid".
I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318. -

Does Adobe Reader Touch have autosum function?
Hi,
I have a work file that I use on both my laptop and Surface. The file contains editable fields that once data is entered, does autosum in the far column. When I use the file on my laptop, the autosum function works as it should. When editing the file through the Adobe Reader Touch app, the autosum function doesn't work.
Is this just an issue with the Touch app? Am I doing something wrong (other than having purchased something with the RT OS, ugh)?
Thanks in advance!!
LaurenAdobe Reader Touch (Windows Store app with "Modern" UI) does not support JavaScript yet. Thus, auto calculations or field formatting will not work.
If your operating system is Windows 8/8.1 (Pro), not Windows RT, you can install and run Adobe Reader XI (desktop app with classic UI).
If your operating system is Windows RT, you may want to try Microsoft Reader (the built-in PDF viewer by Microsoft) to see if auto calculations work. -
How do I bookmark in Adobe reader touch?
How do I bookmark in adobe reader touch? I have the surface pro. When I swipe from the side I only have the search, share, start, devices and settings icons.
Adobe Reader Touch does not support adding new custom/personalized bookmarks to pages yet.
Currently, Adobe Reader Touch supports viewing pre-existing bookmarks that have been created by the author of a given PDF document. If a PDF document has bookmarks, Reader Touch shows the Bookmarks button on the right side of the top toolbar.
The users of Adobe Reader for iOS/Android have requested the capability of adding new custom/personalized bookmarks as well. We are planning to add the capability to a future release of Adobe Reader Touch. But we cannot commit to a specific date for the release at this point.
