Acrobat Reader

I currently have a Dell laptop and Windows 10. I Have Acrobat Reader DC on my computer. Right now I am having a huge issue where files that are not .PDFs are somehow being saved as PDF on my computer or only allowed me to attempt to open documents or other files via .PDF form.Example - I tried to save .dsi (Desi Label file) onto my computer or a shared network. Other people on the network can see it as a .dsi file, but I can only see it as a .PDF and then I get an error when try to open it outside of the DESI program.Does to "safe guard" exist or something that Adobe Acrobat Read DC is force saving files that aren't regular and should not be .PDFs and turning them into .PDF or allowing that to be the only way I can view them? If so, how can I stop that from happening?Any help or feedback would be appreciated. Thank you!

When I strike a measurement it is coming back with a number, "192.00" for example.  the number definately converts to inches but I don't want to spend time converting from inches to feet and inches.  How do I globally set this up to read feet and inches?

We have a client that is having an issue with converting word files to pdf using the "Create PDF" option under the word file ACROBAT tab. All the redline disappears in the header on every page. The workaround, for now, is to save the word file as pdf by clicking on FILE>SAVE AS>PDF, and saved it on the user's desktop. Any resolution on this "Create PDF" tool?

A year ago I started attaching supplementary information (excel doc) inside of a pdf by way of the "comment > add new attachment" feature. I never had problems opening the pdf or attached excel doc, and neither did the recipients. However, this has changed. More and more people are having issues opening these excel documents (.xlsm).Is it because of the file type? Is there a way I can change the trusted documents to include these types? The Edit > Preferences > Trust Manager >PDF File Attachments "Restore" button is greyed out and no longer an option. This fixed the problems on occasion, but I am still in search of a full fix so my recipients can view the attached document.

Hi!Please I need help with installing Acrobat Reader DC. I have been able to download but the installation isn't running successfully. I'm always having the message: "A newer version already installed" and get a message on my browser that Adobe Acrobat Reader DC did not install successfully. I have checked system requirements and this seems to be fine. Can anyone help to fix this?

I suddenly can't copy text using Ctrl + C from Adobe Reader now. This has always worked well but now I am forced to right click to be able to copy. Affecting documents that aren't secured. Help please.

Hi, I have about 50% of our users that when they save from powerpoint to PDF the font distorts. They all have Win10, office 2016 and latest version of Adobe reader. I have tried uninstalling Office, Adobe, checked/played with save settings in Powerpoint and Adobe especially the embed fonts but I cannot fix. Microsoft print-to-PDF fixes the font issue but creates other formatting issues.Screenshot of example below, you can see where some of the letters are touching each other. Any ideas?

Using latest reader DC.  I want to edit and save and convert pdf locally.  I do not want to use online service.  Is this possible?

Hola, Usando firma digital certificado FNMT (españa) me da el siguente error. Siempre habia usado Reader con otro odrenador, pero con éste no funciona. Adjunto capturas. El certificado está bien instalado

I used a Windows cleaning program to get rid of junk on my laptop. After I did, I can't click on a PDF to open it. I receive the error "There was an error opening this document. Bad parameter." I can open Acrobat Reader DC then open a file without problem. I did run the Repair Installation in Adobe Acrobat DC but it still has this error. I know that I can uninstall and reinstall Acrobat then the problem will go away until I clean my Windows again but I would like to be able to fix the problem instead so that I don't need to uninstall and reinstall when I run the cleaner.

Good afternoon. I am needing to create a journal/log style form in Adobe.  Ideally when you open the pdf it would automatically have a line ready to enter in a log entry (the entry line would have a date/time field auto populated, uneditble, then next to it a text field for entering the log entry.  Once you hit enter, or even a complete button, a new entry line would appear, that would have the new date/time, and a new blank text field, and so and so forth.  All previous entires would remain visible on the form. Is this doable in a pdf document?

Bonjour, Dans un document pdf de 300 pages, j'ai le message d'erreur suivant:Une erreur est survenue lors du traitement d'une page.

A quoi fait référence "109"?Parce que cette erreur entraîne qu'il y a une 50aine de pages blanches. Merci d'avance

When clicking on the "use a certificate" menu option under tools, all of the options underneath are greyed out and I cannot select any of them to create a box for a digital signature. I'm fairly certain all of the correct certificates are where they're supposed to be on my laptop, not sure if its something I'm missing in the Adobe app itself? I've had no issues signing PDFs with this certificate in the past or with filling out PDFs. I'm just not able to create a signature block??  

Buongiorno, io non ho mai approvato l'iscrizione a Adobe Acrobat Pro DC. Il sistema lo dimostra perchè non ho mai utilizzato il programma in tutti questi anni.Mi sono resa conto soltanto oggi (a distanza di quasi un anno) che l'abbomamento è attivo da maggio 2019 e mi scala al mese 18 euro. Non ho mai ricevuto mail di notifica e lo trovo vergognoso da un'azienda così seria. Esigo un rimborso e delle spiegazioni.Roberta

I've opened a flat form in Acrobat Reader DC, and used fill and sign to fill out part of it. I saved the partially completed form and went back to work on it today. I realized one of the fields was incorrectly filled in, but when I tried to click on the text box to edit it, it just tries to make new text boxes--it doesn't seem to recognize that the text was created by fill & sign.Is there an option I'm missing? When I was initially editing the form, I had been able to click on text boxes I'd just created and edit them, this just seems to have become a problem after closing the file.

Every time I try to launch Acrobat reader from the start menu I get this message:When I browse to the folder and double click on the AcroRD32.exe icon - I get the same messageWhen try to open a .pdf file by double clicking on it - I get the message that the file can't be found - even though I can open these files within a browserAgain - I can open these pdf files (with or without acrobat?) in my browser but it doesn't seem to work independent of an HTML browserI have uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat Reader - please don't tell me to do that and let you know how it worked - it didn'tThanksNatasha

Servus das seit dem letzten Update neu entstandene Fenster "alle Tools" auf der linken Seite nervt. Man muss es bei jedem Dokument manuell schließen. Wo ist die zentrale Einstellung zum permanenten Ausblenden dieses Fensters (analog dem Werkzeugfenster)? Merci schon mal.

Yesterday I was playing around with adobe, right clicked a downloaded file, and checked a box that said something like "open all pdfs in acrobat reader". I soon realized this made all files open outside of chrome in adobe itself rather than the chrome extension. How do I reverse this? Its extremely inconvenient at the moment.thanks

Hello,Does anyone by chance know how to view two seperate pdf files on seperate monitors. I am trying to put each pdf in full screen mode on seperate monitors. When i try placing each on the seperate monitor and do full screen, one jumps to the other screen covering the other file already in full screen mode.   Hopefully that makes sense. 

I am running Adobe ACrobat Pro version 2025.001.20438 on Mac OS Sequoia 15.3.2.  When I try to add eSignatures ai M aable to fill out the receipents, including their names but when I go to place the fields the cursor remains a cross.  I am able to successfully add signatures to other files withoput problems.  I tried saving the file using Save As Other to a reduced size just to see if making some filel change would change the way eSignature was working, but no luck.  Suggestions?

I implore users to check their Chrome extensions as Adobe has been at it again with their auto install of their PDF reader Chrome extension. This happened back in 2017 much to the chagrin of many users and this motherf?cker of a company has started it again. A wireshark check shows the extension does track personal data. Not only does Adobe Reader auto updates itself without asking, it now adds the Chrome extension during the update. Adobe, you piece of scum, I hope you rot in hell! I will continue to post these warning in as many places I can think of because the more people know about this scum company, the better.

I navigate to an outlook email and open the PDF attachment sent. By default the document opens to Adobe. When in Adobe I select the highlighted printer button on the top right hand corner to print. The print preview window will open. On the print preview window when I select print on the bottom right hand corner the select a printer dropdown menu opens even though a default printer is set. Even if a printer is selected if I navigate to the print button on the bottom left hand corner the printer dropdown menu continues to expand once again. Each time the print button is selected it will expand the printer dropdown menu and not print the document. We have used numerous network printers and print to PDF and we get the same behavior. This is happening in integrated programs as well when trying to print a PDF. The only way to currently print a PDF is to save the PDF locally to desktop, downloads, etc. following the same steps navigating to the printer button and selecting print on the print
