Why has Adobe not created a .pdf reader for Blackberry?

It would seem to be advantageous for Adobe to write an Adobe Reader specifically for blackberry, in that it is one of the most-used mobiles out there.
Why other OSes and not for Blackberry?

Well, Les, I appreciate the suggestion, but it is brand new and has the latest operating system.
The problem is most noticeable to folks like me who often use JPEG-based .pdf files. As you know, before you zoom in, you have the prettiest little miniature image on your screen you ever saw, but it is not readable. When you zoom in to where the type (or music) becomes readable, there are artifacts that make it almost illegible -- certainly not easy to read in any case.
Plus, there are .pdf files I've received in my short time of use that would not open, and I've heard many others complain of the same thing.
Lastly, because I would like to open my .pdf files from a third-party app, I would prefer a reader that works in tune with all apps, not just email.
Thanks for the input, though. :)

Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 8, for the simple reason it was
created much before it and Adobe could not participate the changes to the
OS that Microsoft implemented many years later on. You need to buy the
current version for compatibility.

WHY is Adobe NOT Upgrading below CS 6 for EIGHT Vulnerabilities?!?

Pay upgrade price to patch critical bugs? ...Really???
Dearest Adobe,
I would just like you to know that your decision to do this is NOT acceptable at ALL!   Haven't we paid you enough money already for your software? And now you want us to pay you even MORE? For WHAT - so you can do this to us all over again - and again - and again???
And this is the support we get?   The respect we deserve? The "thanks" we get for being loyal Adobe supporters?
Just FYI - this economy SUCKS and some of us can't afford this right now!   Ya THINK?
I would EXPECT to be safe with or WITHOUT upgrading every single year - wouldn't YOU?
We supported YOU - so WHY can you NOT support US???
So, the jist of your solution is that we are EXPECTED to pay $375 MINIMUM to be secure using your programs?   Else... you don't care - is that right?
PLEASE tell us what OTHER options we have to be secure utilizing your products without forking out MORE of our hard earned money???
I have been a LONG TIME loyal Adobe supporter and reseller of all your products - and this news just makes me SICK to my stomach, as I am SURE it will to others as well!   I will NEVER recommend NOR Resell ANY of your software to anyone if this is how you treat your loyal users!
I am outraged!!! ...and rightously so!!! Not impressed a BIT! This is NOT acceptable at ALL!!!! PERIOD!
PLEASE tell me what other choice I have? PLEASE!!!
I am SO disappointed and unimpressed by your decisions...

Adobe has changed its position and will be updating its older products that are still supported (CS 5 and up, I'm pretty sure, but not sure about CS 4). Please understand that this is for all intents and purposes a user to user forum. Yelling at your fellow users is not helpful. When you want to yell at Adobe, a nice thought letter to the CEO:
Corporate headquarters
Adobe Systems Incorporated
345 Park Avenue
San Jose, CA 95110-2704
Is probably more helpful

Why has Adobe not sent me my photoshop serial number?

I have purchased Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 Design Standard from Fnac in Lyon, France with the student reduction. I was told I needed to register online, send in a photocopy of my student card or other paperwork prooving my student status to receive my serial number and be able to install photoshop onto my MacBook Pro. I never heard back from them! I'm sure I did everything correctly and yet here I am stuck with unusable Installation CDs and much less money in my pockets. This forum is also the only way I found to (hopefully) contact someone in the know. Please please help me! I'm desperate!
Thank you

Hi,
How many days has it been since you uploaded the douments for verification?
The below link gives details on the timelines for receiving a serial number for an Education Version:

Request you to please refer to the same.
Thanks

CS6 not creating layered PDF's

Why can I not create a pdf file from CS6 that preserves my layers, which are also known as OCG's, Optional Content Groups? In "save as pdf", I have layers checked and I am indicating I want to preserve Photoshop functionality, which causes the PDF/X box to go to "None". What am I doing wrong? I know there is a script for saving each layer as a pdf automatically from which I could build the layered Acrobat file I want, but it I'd like a one-step process. There is every indication that this should happen, but it does not.

Answering both you and Mylenium,
I don't think there is blending going on. I have saved it layer by layer as individual pdfs and it's worked fine when I bring them in as layers in Acrobat Pro X or Bluebeam.
Pfaffenbichler, you may be right. Basically what you are telling me is that Photoshop can't save Acrobat layers into a multi-layered pdf, but simply in a format that allows the pdf file to be reopen with layers in Photoshop. That seems strange that Adobe would not be able have Photoshop save into the newer, layered, versions of the pdf format it created and have the layers show up.

Making Adobe as the default PDf reader

How can I make Adobe as a default pdf reader for windows phone 8?
Where does the Adobe reader store local files in wp8? Can I know its path in windows phone 8?

Maybe starting Acrobat 9 (NOT Distiller 9: this is an extra component
of Acrobat, and not involved in opening PDFs) will help. But overall,
mixing releases and Acrobat/Reader on the same computer isn't
recommended for this sort of reason.

Windows 7, Office 2007, Adobe Acrobat cs3 - will not create a .pdf from word doc

I can not create a .PDF file from a 2007 word.docx file. I have tried a few different word docs, including a document I created just to trouble shoot with.
I tried opening the .docx in Word and then going PRINT - ADOBE PDF. When I do this 'nothing' happens. No dialogue box opens, nada.
When I open Adobe Acrobat and try to 'create' I get this error: "Adobe acrobat could not open"name.docx" because it is not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged...".
New Dell, Windows 2007, Adobe Acrobate pro 8 from CS3, Word 2007.

Something to check.
Help > About Adobe Acrobat...
See what dot version is in place.
Support for Office 2007 applications began with Acrobat 8.1; so, you want that or better.
As to Windows 7 — some Adobe information:

From the FAQ page.
--| Adobe supports Windows 7 with Adobe Reader/Acrobat 9; specifically, this starts with the 9.2 dot release.
--| Adobe does not support Acrobat 8, Adobe Reader 8 or prior versions on Windows 7
and does not plan to release updates to those versions for Windows 7 compatibility.

Why suddenly will Adobe not print a PDF file but will only save as .prn file I cannot print

Why suddenly will Adobe not print a PDF file but will only save as .prn file that my computer will not recognize? This is a new problem never experienced before. I have tried updating all versions of Adobe Reader but still no results.

Turn off the "print to file" option.

How do I fix this and see the error message when Adobe does not create a pdf from word?

I have a trial version of Adobe X and it will not create a pdf. A short message comes up but disappears before I can see what the problem is. Please help me fix this?

Possibly, though there isn't much to go on. Let's start with the basics.
Can you start the Acrobat application? It will sit there, looking like Adobe Reader or something?
If so, can you open an existing PDF, if you have one?
Ok, now creating a PDF. There are MANY ways to do this, so what steps are you following, and where does it fail?

Why will IPhoto not import a PDF image now - it has previously?

Why will iphoto not import a PDF image now - it has previously?

This feature was removed with iPhoto 11. You'll need to ask Apple why:
iPhoto menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback
In the meantime you can convert a pdf to jpeg or tiff using Preview.

Why has adobe acrobat changed the dimensions of my original jpeg file?

Why has adobe acrobat changed the dimensions of my original jpeg file? I uploaded an A3 jpeg file and adobe converted it to pdf but the scale is all wrong. Why is this? What can I do about it?

Normally if you open a graphic in Acrobat, it automatically adjusts the PDF to the size of the graphic. It sounds as though you are doing something else to create a PDF. It would help to know how you created the PDF, you seem to be suggesting you did it with an online tool and not Acrobat. In that case you should go to the appropriate product forum.
