  2. The real reason I came here:

    PDF's are usually 1) created by the author 2) sent to the recipient for review (mostly always it is a contract for me to review) 3) Edits/mistakes are communicated by the recipient to the author to correct. 4) Author corrects and returns to the recipient again for review/signature. 5) Recipient has to read the WHOLE contract over again (in my case 25 pages of an awesome rental agreement (wow what a miraculous story that was) when really I only want to review the areas the author edited (and review for the corrections only) without…

  4. The first step to connect canon printer setup to WiFi is to locate the Wifi button on your printer. You can confirm the button by consulting the manual that came with your printer. Now, press and hold the Wifi button until the Wifi lamp begins to flash blue. Release the Wifi button after the Wifi lamp flashes twice. To begin the Canon printer wireless setup, go to your access point and press the WPS push button. As a result, the printer will begin to display the Connecting status, indicating that it is looking for your router. visit https://ijstartcannonn.com/canon-printer-setup/ to know…

  5. Every time I send a document to sign. It always ask the client to review and sign. But that langue is extremely aggressive and literal losses me clients all the time. Because no one wants to push a button that says sign before even reading what's in the document.

    Can you just change it to review.

    Getting people to read a document is hard enough, I don't need a program giving them a built in excuse not to open it

  6. Many times, I am confronted with a text string that needs a search (I generally use Google) and from within Acrobat I must select and copy the text, then go to the browser and search. I know it sounds fundamentally lazy...but these steps if repeated over and over take time. From the Chrome browser, we can select and then right-click text and "Search in Google" is an option. Acrobat is a much richer environment for working with the PDF but then the constant charade (for instance in a legal document with citations) of select, copy, open the browser, open or…

  8. Trying to open PDFs from write protected media (eg SD Card with write protection set) results in an error
    "Adobe Acrobat Reader could not open <file>, file type is not supported or file is damaged"
    (Translation from german message)

    This error shows up most times, on some PCs and also sometimes on same system doesn't.
    There is no reproduceable logic behind it .

    Works normal once write protection is removed.

  9. The attached PDF file contains a bitonal image which uses the DeviceGray color space, has a BitsPerComponent value of 1, and uses color key masking to make the white pixels transparent (via a Mask array).

    The file contains a shipping label with a large X over the entire label, and the text "VOID" over the barcode. One of the lines forming the large X is under the image, and the other is above the image. The "VOID" text is under the label image.

    Expected Result: The large X and the "VOID" text are fully visible at any window size, and…

  10. Following bug has been introduced with a recent Adobe Reader (or Windows?) update. It affects all our customers.

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Create a 64 Bit C# application (32 Bit Works)
    2. In the application, use ActiveX, or WebBrowser control and open/navigate to "C:\documentname.pdf"

    Expected result: PDF shows up

    Actual result: Screen stays gray. In the Windows Error Reporting you will see that AcroPDFImpl64.dll has crashed.

    It is very important for us, because our customers rely on this functionality and our software product is currently not useable due to this bug.

    Please contact me through email info at hickelsoft.de .…

  12. When using the Pan mouse function, the mouse often selects text/images rather than panning. There is already a Select mouse option, when using Pan, you should not be able to select text as that's not what you're attempting to do.

  14. When the ink begins to run low, it's time to refill or change the cartridge ink. This manual will help you on how you can change the ink in a WF 7720 Epson printer, and also it is recommended to do Epson WF-7720 troubleshooting to avoid further issues. In the beginning, start the printer and load some sheets into it. Then, using the knobs, carefully elevate the ink cartridge. Afterward, remove the plastic tape from the fresh ink cartridge. You will need to snap in the ink cartridge, as well as close the lid of the cartridge slot to keep…

  16. https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrocef-rdrcef-errors.html provides admins a method to close RdrCEF process when Reader has problems working with digital signatures. Users are unable to stop this process and with this in mind, can Reader be developed so that it terminates this process periodically, as it tends to start up when Reader is launched. Please note that this process is either in background processes or as a child process of Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, which on Windows 10 makes it a little tricky to locate immediately. If user is unable to unload this process, then it prevents users being able to digitally sign PDF…

  17. The Reader app (all platforms) should be more generalized to allow "reading" of both EPUB or PDF documents.

    Similarly, we should be able to embed an EPUB into a PDF file. (PDF has a robust method that allows it to embed other file formats.)

    Then, we should have a switch in Reader that would let a user to switch from PDF to reflowable EPUB and back again.

    While I understand that Adobe is investing heavily in Liquid Mode, this EPUB method would be far more reliable for people who need to control the design of both static and reflowable modes.

  18. 意見ないし要望:
    以下の機能を担うショートカットキーを、新たに設けて欲しい。
    また、それに当たって、当方の希望するショートカットキーの設定も、併せて例示しておく。

    1.単ページ表示 : S キー
    2.見開き表示 : D キー (理由:上記「S キー」と位置的に近い)
    3.全画面表示 : F キー
    4.全画面表示解除 : F キー または Esc キー

    これらは、おそらくは、こと「閲覧」の際においては、割合良く使うものとなるだろうと思われるので、なるべく「ワンボタン操作」にしておいて欲しい。

    ――――――――――――――――――――

    理由ないし詳細:
    フルスクリーンで表示している状態のままで、「単ページ表示」と「見開き表示」とを切り替えたい、と思っている。
    また、「ウィンドウ表示」と「フルスクリーン(全画面表示)」とを切り替える、といった事も、閲覧の際の操作としては、割と良く有る事だと思われる。
    これらについて、ショートカットキーの新設を願う。

    私見だが、これらは、こと「閲覧」といった用途においては、かなり基本的なものであるように思われる。
    こういった「当たり前」ともいえる機能が、未だに整備されていない、とかいった事は、
    当該ソフトウェアが、こと「閲覧」を主目的としているユーザーに対して、配慮を欠いている、と言わざるを得ない。

    また、これも私見だが、当該ソフトウェアの使途としては、おそらくは9割方が、いわゆる「読み専」であろうと思われる。
    文書作成(書き専?)などの使途は、全体の内の1割程度に過ぎないのではないか、と思われる。
    それらの比率から見ても、いわゆる「読み専」とされるようなユーザーに対するフォローは、もう少し配慮されて然るべきであるように思われる。

    あと、これは少し発展的な意見となるかもしれないが、
    この際、「読み専」用に特化したようなアプリを、新規に開発もしくは配布なさっても良いのかもしれない。
    実際、当該アプリは、「読み専」としては不必要である機能が多過ぎる。
    その結果として、アプリとしての「軽快性」や「堅牢性」「簡易性」などが損なわれてしまっては、本末転倒である。
    よって、この際、「読み専」用に特化したような、簡易版ともいえるアプリを、Adobe自ら、新規に作成なさっては如何かと思う。
    上記にても有るように、その使途の9割方は、おそらく「読み専」である。
    想定されるユーザー数ないしニーズは、充分に大きい、と思われる。
    こういった重要な案件を、「他社任せ」などとしてはならない、と思う。
    差し出がましいかもしれないが・・・、
    これを「Acrobat Reader Light」とでも、仮に命名しておく。
    ご参考までに・・・。(笑)

    ――――――――――――――――――――

    追記:
    本件は、以下のフォーラムにて、議論されました。
    ご参考までに、ご確認下さい。

  19. Reader DC bug: It says my certified signature is invalid, because document was modified, even if I save the edited document before signing. This problem was not happening on previous versions. It should only be considered modified, if I edit the document after signing.

  20. We are working with SCCM/packaging and we discovered a problem when trying to uninstall latest Reader DC 2021.011.20039 from computers by command line. Uninstallation seems to be finished successfully (Reader DC is removed from Programs and Features) but the process "hangs" and never ends, which will cause SCCM or other install system to report it as still running/in progress and not report as success. Attached is a log file from one instance of this issue. We were able to reproduce it on several VMs.
