Where do I put pdfs on Samsung Galaxy SII so I can view them using the Adobe Reader App?

I have PDF files on my PC that I'd like to view on my phone.  I downloaded the Adobe Reader expecting a folder to appear that I could copy these PDFs to.  Rather like with Kindle.  It didn't. Where do I put the files so I can display them using the Adobe Reader App?  Of course when I open the app at the moment, I get 'no files available', obviously, I don't know where to put them.  I'm probably missing something very simple but your help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

I solved the problem.  I manually created my own Adobe PDF folder by connecting the phone via usb to my PC, Windows Autoplay gave me the option to 'Open device to view files'. Explorer then displayed all the folders on the phone.  I created an Adobe PDF folder manually and copied the PDFs I wanted to view into that folder.  Adobe Reader then found the files without a problem.  I clearly was missing something quite simple but something I'm sure a lot of people would miss.  Perhaps if the next version of Adobe Reader for Android created this folder automatically, like Kindle and Kobo and other readers do, it might save a lot of people a bit of a headache.

  • How to force using the adobe reader to view the PDF by javascript / PHP / HTML?

    I use the standard way to embed a pdf to my website, however, when I open it the browser will choose the default pdf viewer instead of the adobe reader. I can change it manually by looking at the browser option but it would not be nice if the website visitor need to do this manually. So I would like to know how to force the browser to open the PDF in adobe by using some HTML header / javascript / php or any parameter in object tag. Thanks.
    <object id = 'zoomPage' type='application/pdf' data= '" + sourceFolder + "SingTao/2013/08/17/0/0/A/Content/pdf/pdf_" + currZoomPageNo + ".pdf#toolbar=1&navpanes=0&statusbar=0&messages=0&pagemode=read'><p>The PDF can not display</p></object>

    I know this problem related to the browser behaviour so I would target only :Chrome firefox and IE 9+ (it is ideal if IE8 can also adopt the solution) thanks

  • How can I use the Adobe reader if the PDF documents are in iBooks?

    The Adobe reader asks me to look for an "Open in" button but iBooks does not appear to have one. I like IBooks because it synchronises nicely with the computer, and I can read the PDFs but I cannot highlight, add comments or add bookmarks unless I use the Adobe reader.

    Use iTunes to save the PDF FROM iBooks, and to add them to Adobe Reader.
    Connect your iPad to your computer. Bring up iTunes on your computer.
    To save a PDF FROM iBooks, click on "Books" in the Library section on the left. Select the PDF you want to save and right-click and choose Show in Finder (Show in Explorer in Windows). Go up one level in your computer hierarchy and you'll see all the "Books" (PDFs and eBooks) in iBooks.  You can leave them here if you want to view the PDFs in iBooks in the future, or drag them to the Desktop.
    To move the PDF TO Adobe Reader:
    Return to iTunes. Click on the iPad on the left in Devices. Click on the Apps tab. Scroll down the the File Sharing section as shown below. Click on Adobe Reader. Click the Add button and select the PDFs you identified in the previous step. They'll be added to Adobe Reader

  • How can I convert .pdf file to .doc using the free adobe reader app? when I try to convert the .pdf file it asks me to sign in. when I click on "sign in", I am taken to a service subscription page. So, no free conversions using free adobe reader app?

    As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
    What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF  to Word export.
    There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.

  • When Streaming a PDF from a java servlet I get a grey screen on the Adobe Reader X plugin.

    I work on a webapp where we serve pdfs to clients by streaming via java servlets. Once we began to use Reader X we noticed that in IE the pdf will load Reader X with a grey screen. Chrome and firefox both work perfectly fine. If we use Adobe 9 it also works fine. We have no control over what our users use so any client side fix is not useful.
    We serve these pdfs to our user by opening a popup window to a url that streams the pdf directly to the response. We have noticed that if we have one popup window that has hit the grey screen - each new pdf in a popup works correctly - as long as the original grey screen is up, once all popups are closed the problem happends again. Refreshing the window with the grey screen will also show the pdf correctly.
    The problem is very similar to what is described here:
          http://forums.adobe.com/message/3335266
    However, we are not setting any caching headers - I have full control over what we can send and I have tried the suggestions - nothing works. Any ideas how to resolve this?

    You are prevented from Airplay mirroring certain things like DVD content as the material is usually protected so you get a checkerboard type display.  I think there is a theoretical risk that the Airplay stream could be intercepted and the protected video copied, albeitin lower quality.
    Apple may be being cautious or are required to do so with the DVD player app by movie studios/licensing authorities.  It makes no sense to the average consumer who is just trying to send their purchased DVD to the TV via the computer and AppleTV.
    Playback in something like VLC should work - not tried it myself but others have commented it doesn't have the restriction.

  • The memory for each PDF file does not add up to the Adobe Reader App size

  • Where can I put my iPhoto photos and videos so others can view them?

    I don't want to use iPhoto 9.2 or Photostream.
    Is there a way to let PC Windows users and Mac users view certain of my photos and videos which are in iPhoto.  Is there a place in iCloud that I can put them?

    So anyone else that wants to view my pics must use iCloud?  And Photostream?
    No: Photostream is purely a conduit between your own devices; it's not available to anyone else (unless you allow them access to your entire account so they can download the images to their devices - you wouldn't have any control over which pictures, it would be all of them: it's not a practicable solution).
    This page examines some of the alternatives:

  • Trying to open PDF in email with Adobe Reader app

    Citimortgage sent me a disclosure statement by email. I'm trying to open it on my iPad using the Adobe Reader app, but this is all I get.
    To view the full contents of this document, you need a later version of the PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html For further support, go to www.adobe.com/support/products/acrreader.html
    Help!

    George is correct. XFA forms (which the mobile Reader does not support) are often built with a generic error (like the one described) page that displays for Readers that do not support these document types.

  • 'Save as' in Adobe Reader app? (Samsung Galaxy tab)

    My tech will be using a Samsung Galaxy tab installed with Adobe Reader to fill-in forms I created from Adobe Acrobat X Pro.  We are using DropBox to 'share' the files.  The only option I am missing is a 'save as' feature on the Adobe Reader app.  I've already extended all the rights of the pdf forms to Reader so according to all the forums, he should have full functionality.  HOW CAN I 'SAVE AS' once he has filled out the form so he can use it for multiple equipment???

    I don't believe this is possible. You might want to try to have each individual email you the file once they complete the form.

  • Can i use my Samsung Galaxy SIII on verizon from att?

    Im going to switch to att and i was curious if i can use my samsung galaxy SIII from att on verizon.

    Verizon uses CDMA for calls and texting. At&t phones do not have CDMA radios as they use GSM. Now the phone does support Verizon's XLTE frequency but not Verizon's 700 MHz LTE frequency. So you won't be able to call or text and only part of Verizon's LTE network will be available to use.

  • How to print pdf file not using the the adobe reader ?

    hello,
    i used the adobe sdk to open a pdf file in read and modify it serveral times and each time save it to another directory,and now i need to write a program to print the pdf file in this directory.when print the file,i want to continue my work also,so who i tell me how to solve this problem?
    thanks.

    The SDK is only a collection of documentation and headers that show you how to interact with and automate Adobe Acrobat and to some extent Adobe Reader. You need a copy of Acrobat or Reader installed on the system in order to use any of the SDK functions. You cannot "print not using the Adobe Reader", unless you have Adobe Acrobat installed on the system instead of Reader.

  • How to transfer pdfs in Adobe reader app on ipad to desktop pc?

    I can't see to find the solution of this problem anywhere.
    Is it possible to transfer the pdfs saved in the Adobe Reader app to a PC (not a mac, I don't have one).
    Basically, I want to be able to plug my ipad into my PC and take the pdfs and transfer straight to my PC without going through any other means.
    Thanks

    You can either do it using Adobe Reader Mobile Link: https://helpx.adobe.com/reader/beta-features/mobile-link.html
    I do not have any iOS devices, but if I connect my Android device to my Windows PC, I use Windows Explorer to view, then copy (drag-and-drop) the files from the Android directory straight to my local disk on Windows.  I am pretty sure it works similarly with iOS devices.

  • I want to save large pdf files from my computer to my iPad so I can view them in Adobe Reader.

    I want to save large pdf files from my computer to my iPad so I can view them in Adobe Reader. I do not want to view them in iBooks or Quickoffice. Since I cannot email these large files, how can I get them on my iPad? Thanks for your help.

    I think that Adobe reader supports file sharing.
    Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side under "devices". Click on the Apps Tab in the window on the right. Scroll down to the File Sharing Apps list under the main apps list. Click on Adobe Reader. Drag the documents into the file sharing window on the right or select them using the "add" button.
    Launch the Adobe reader app and the files should be in there.
