Why barcode works in Adobe Acrobat Pro but become "grey" in Adboe Reader ?

I have created a form with barcode using Adobe Acrobat Pro with ONE field only and it works prefect.
However, the barcode area become grey if I using Adobe "Reader" to fill-in data! I have tried to increase the size of the barcode area but still don't work.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Danny

Hi everyone,
Any solution to this issue? Is there any cheap Adobe or third party component that enable us to design pdf forms with either livecycle designer or acrobat and provide dynamic barcode functionality for the end users having adobe reader?

Why my form works flawlessly in Acrobat Pro but is broken in the Reader?

Hi,
after a couple hours of trial and error, I finally made a nice form with Acrobat Professional 8.1.2.
I have a small workshop that makes signalisation signs. With that form, my client will have a nice tool to order them.
Here is my form (sorry, it's in french):
http://homepage.mac.com/danyb/Sites/PDF/Dab_Feuille_de_commande.pdf
In Acrobat professionnal, everything works, so the subtotal(somme partielle) is calculated from the 3 kinds of signs I make and the 2 taxes are applied.
But in the Reader (8.1.2), the subtotal is always 0.
Any suggestions on what's wrong?
Thanks
Dany, Qc

I just went through your form and changed the calculations from the short cut notation fields to the "Custom calculation script" (the script generated by the short cut fields will appear) and noticed the lines did not end with a return. Adding a return to the script in the custom field cleared up the problem.
I have seen a similar problem with JavsScript code being inserted programatically into form fields or other locations within a PDF form.
You might want to contact Acrobat about this problem.

With the subscription you sign in with your Adobe ID that you used to order the subscription. By installation code, I assume you mean serial number. You do not get one with the subscription, but use your Adobe ID.

I purchased an annual subscription to Adobe Acrobat Pro but my Mac 10.5.8 doesn't support it. Is there another Adobe product

I purchased an annual subscription to Adobe Acrobat pro but it doesn't operate on my Mac 10.5.8 operating system.
Is there another Adobe product to which I should ask my subscription be switched so I can convert PDFs into
Word and vice versa?

PDF Pack can do that; but you may only be able to use the online service, since Adobe Reader may also not run on your OS (depending on the architecture).

I am trying to use Barcode function on Adobe acrobat pro version..I could not figure out..how can i autopopulate forms using Barcode from one PDF document( form) to next PDF document( form)..i am missing something in between those?

I have no idea what you are asking - can you be a little bit more clear formulating your question.
Anyway, this is the Adobe Reader forum; you should probably ask in the Acrobat forum.

I have payed for Adobe acrobat pro but now i can not convert a pdf document to a word format, why?

I have payed for Adobe acrobat pro for one year and it is valid to november 2015, but now i can not convert a pdf document to a word format, why ?

Hi m_karhulinna,
If you have Acrobat Pro, you can save directly to Word format from within Acrobat by choosing File > Save as Other > Microsoft Word > Word Document.
(It sounds like you may be trying to use the ExportPDF online service, which is separate from Acrobat, and not necessary in your case.)
Best,

CS4 suite serial number does not work for Adobe Acrobat Pro

Hello,
I am looking for a solution for the serial number issue I am having with Adobe Acrobat Pro. All of other programs within the suite open fine, but when I open Adobe Acrobat Pro it asks for a serial number. When I type in the serial number, I am given a red "X".
I have called customer support, but they haven't been able to give me any information that will resolve my issue (uninstalled 4 times now). I have Vista and have looked online and on the Adobe website to find a solution. It looks like others are having the same issue from what I can tell while searching. I have run the script too and then reinstalled, but still nothing.

After some stupid upgrade in my computer (who knows as Microsoft is always doing something), my Acrobat 9 in CS4 stopped working. The error message said to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat. So I went through the control panel and uninstalled it. I then loaded the CD and reinstalled. However the reinstall would NOT accept the orginal serial number. I called Adobe and they gave me a different serial number. Before I let the guy nof the line I tried the number and it did NOT work! So then he gave me another number which asked for the previous verison- apparently it was an upgrade number. Luckily I had my old CS3 software and I gave it that number and then it accepted the install. The program now works BUT there is no longer any ADD/REMOVE choice in the CS4 suite in the control panel. There is no way to automatically remove this program anymore! What a mess.
After reading some of the installation problems others have had and no solutions, I count myself lucky! At least I was able to get the program running.
Therefore my advise on the serial number problem is to get Adobe on the phonen and get them to give you a number that will work, and don't hang up until you know the program is working!
If anyone knows how to add the Acrobat to the the add/remove functions in the control panel, please let me know!

Dynamic Stamps Not Working in Adobe Acrobat Pro

Hi everyone, the dynamic stamps on Adobe Simultaneous Review are no longer working for us. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 (it works for me) but it's not working for many other people (they have Adobe Acrobat Pro X). Does anyone know how we can fix this. I think the problem started occurring a few months ago.
Many Thanks!
Joy

You can shutting down Acrobat and then try moving (DO NOT DELETE - you may want put them back afterward if this doesn't work) the Collab and Sync folder out of the User's Acrobat folder and then rejoin the Shared Review to see if the Dynamic Stamps reappear.

Serial number won't work reinstalling Adobe Acrobat Pro X

I purchased CS6 Design and Web Premium which includes Adobe Acrobat Pro X. I've had continuing problems using Acrobat, so I decided to reinstall it. I was able to download it, but when I enter my serial number it tells me it's invalid. I'm copying it from my Adobe account, so the number is accurate. I've entered it with the dashes and without the dashes - neither one works. I need help getting this installed and working.

I downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/downloads/other-downloads.html. I did not see anywhere to download it from my My Products page.

I subscribed to Adobe Acrobat Pro but it is telling me to install. I already have the trial version for another 3 days. Do I have to install it again?

I subscribed to Adobe Acrobat Pro XI. I have the trial version for another 3 days. The e-mail confirming the subscription said to install it, but I already have the trial version. Do I have to install it again?

Hello,
No, you don't need to re-install the Acrobat again. Just license it when the next time trial prompt appears. The moment you put your email on which you have purchased the subscription, it will get activated.

Anoop

Just purchased the "Adobe Acrobat Pro" but now I cant download the software

I just paid $180.00 to purchase the "Adobe Acrobat Pro" After I provide all necessary information and set up an account, I was then instructed to download and install the software, however when I click on the software download button, it does NOT download the software. Why will it not download the software?

Assistanttolindsey the Adobe Download Assistant will download the installation files for Adobe Acrobat Professional XI. By default they are saved to your download folder. You can begin the installation process from there.

Problem with Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended version 9.3.4 reading Inventor 2009

I would like to be able to generate 3D PDF files from Autodesk Inventor CAD models (e.g. .iam files) using Adobe Acrobat Pro Extended. I am constrained to use Inventor 2009. When I originally installed Acrobat Pro Extended, I was able to make this work after installing the IMPORT3D update at:
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4073
Recently (9/5/2010), I updated Acrobat Pro Extended to version 9.3.4. I believe that following that update, I lost the ability to read in Inventor 2009 files. Acrobat Pro Extended now gives the error messages:
"Exception has been raised" followed by:
"Acrobat could not open 'file' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). To create an Adobe PDF document, go to the source application. Then print the document to Adobe PDF."
This is exactly what happened when I first installed Acrobat Pro extended and before I installed the IMPORT3D update mentioned above. I tried re-installing that update but now the installer gives the error message:
"No qualifying products found to apply this update."
Note that Inventor 2009 does allow one to "Save Copy As" to PDF format, but this just creates a 2D PDF snapshot of the current model view -- same for print to pdf.
I suppose one thing to try is removing Acrobat Pro Extended and then re-installing without the 9.3.4 update, but with the IMPORT3D update -- but if that is necessary, then I won't be able to take advantage of any further updates (e.g. security updates) to Acrobat, which seems like a bad situation.
Has anyone else had this problem? Or is it just me?

I may have figured out what was causing my problem with conversion of Inventor 2009 to 3D PDF. After playing around with a number of inventor files, I discovered that the conversion worked fine when there were no references to external files. For example a .ipt file (part file) seemed to convert fine. I believe the problem was that on the form one obtains with Edit->Preferences->Convert to PDF->Autodesk Inventor->Edit Settings->Import->Assembly, the check box for "use root file directory" was NOT checked. Oddly, this is the default and I'm pretty sure I tried setting the conversion options to the default. In any case, I now seem to be able to perform the conversion of Inventor 2009 to 3D PDF so this problem is solved I guess.

I downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro, but now can't print any .pdf.

Have Window 8. I downloaded Acrobat Pro from Kivuto, deleted it at suggestion of Adobe help chat, and downloaded it again last night. I have tried multiple .pdf documents on both printers. My wife logged into her work computer through Citrix and used Acrobat Pro from the high school where she works, and still can't print. Any ideas?
