Acrobat Reader

PDF files on my hard disk don't open when I click on them. Instead, I get what is attached and I can't get rid of it.

As mentioned by many users before, I made a detailed list on what is being seen on my side, this is how the installation journey is currently designed besides delivering the Acrobat Reader DC: 1. LandingAdobe’s website provides transportation to deceive user that the installer only provides the installation of Adobe Reader 2. Post Downloadno explicit terms to notify user before installationno any clear options to let user uncheck McAfee installation3. Installationmy installation of the Acrobat Reader was being abandoned due to having Acrobat Pro DC being installed whereas the installer still proceeds to instell McAfeeclicking "Yes" when confirming cancellation does not stop the installation process 4. Post-InstallationMcAfee performs auto scan after installation, meaning unauthorized access to ALL user’s machine files, possibly riding on the permission granted at the beginning of instellation.McAfee change operation system settings without ANY user permission, possi

Hi CommunityI need to disable some features in Adobe Reader app on Mac, eg disable upsell (do not offer users Adobe Pro) , disable sign in/out in Reader  , etc. I tried to follow the below guidance, uploaded com.adobe.Reader.plist to those two locations below, restart the app, but it does not work.  Did any of you have a following challenge, what is a process to disable/enable some options for Mac app, by plist ? I hope you can point me in the right direction.  App version, if that matters: 2023.008.20533Thank you, much appreciated ! Mikolaj (1) /Library/Preferences (2) /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences  guidance: https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/PrefRef/Macintosh/index.html------------------------<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"><plist version="1.0"><dict>  <key>Featur

I'm in an environment with mostly 32-bit reader installed and trying to replace it with 64-bit in Intune.   When I set up reader on my personal test devices, it installed with the GUID AC76BA86-1033-FF00-7760-BC15014EA700, labeled as Adobe Acrobat (64-bit) but opens as Adobe Reader inside the app.  I'm installing this using the MSI file extracted from the MUI for 64 bit reader found here: https://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ However, in testing with some other users, I'm getting installation failures. I'm seeing installations with these other users that reference the GUID ac76ba86-1033-1033-7760-bc15014ea700, which an Adobe employee has confirmed as the GUID for Adobe Reader 64 bit in another post: https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/adobe-acrobat-64-bit-update-error-1642/td-p/13364386 I also see actual installations of Adobe Acrobat (64-bit) (i.e. not Reader) reference GUID AC76BA86-1033-FFFF-7760-BC15014EA

I’ve downloaded several PDFs from the UniformMarket website, but Adobe Acrobat Reader says they are damaged and cannot be repaired. Are there specific settings or steps I should follow to avoid this issue?

The sidebar is not active, it's just a very annoying marketing ploy that takes up screen real estate.  How do I disable it?thanksBill

In the Categories list, select Signatures3. in Identies & Trusted Certificates, click the MORE button4. a dialog opens and Digital IDs is highlighted. Select the signature in the right side of the dialog and click the EXPORT button at the top5.  a dialog appears.  Choose "Save the data to a file" and click NEXT6.  Select a location for the file.  Select the "Save as type" has 3 choices: *.fdf  *.p7c  *.cer7.  On the new computer navigate to the same screen and click the Add Digital ID button8. a dialog appears.  Select "My existing digital ID from:" and select "A file" and click NEXT9. Click the Browse button.  It only displays *.p12  and  *.pfx  files.  Also it is expecting a password on the file, yet no pas

Every time I save a PDF from the Chrome browser, (by right clicking and saving as), it automatically populates in the Adobe PDF reader.  It is an extra step that I want to stop. I do not just want to download it from the browser as I would like to view it before saving it. 

Dear Adobe Support Team, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to report an issue I have encountered with digitally signing large PDF documents. I have a 28 MB document that I scanned and need to sign digitally. Unfortunately, I have found that the signing process only works when the file size is reduced to 1.7 MB. Attempts to sign the document at sizes of 10.5 MB and 28 MB have been unsuccessful. Reducing the file size to 1.7 MB significantly impacts the readability of the document. Could you please address this issue and allow for larger PDFs to be digitally signed without requiring such a drastic reduction in file size? I have noticed that many others have reported similar issues. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Best regards,Simon 

I find it interesting that as support for multiple monitors becomes more standard in operating systems, applications start forcing all associated documents into the same window such that one sometimes has to employ registry hacks to get the documents into separate windows to be able to easily compare side-by-side across the multiple monitors.   First it was Microsoft Excel... now it appears Adobe Reader is forcing the documents into a single window.   While Adobe Reader at least allows one to click on the "Window" menu and choose "New Window" to "move" a PDF to a separate window (annoyingly enough instead of actually moving the selected tab to the new window, it opens another copy, which requires one to still close the first copy in the original window). I'd prefer the default behavior to automatically open the documents in new windows when I double click on them in Windows Explorer to open them.  At least give me a preference option for this...   Does anyone have a

When opening multiple PDF files, Acrobat Reader DC groups them in the same window as tabs.  How can I change so that each PDF file opens in a new window?

Hi,since the last Adobe Reader update "23.006.20380" we've got some strange issue with the Reader on two Win11Pro Clients.After starting the Adobe Reader (not even opening a pdf, just the program) following message will appear after 1-2 minutes:"Connecting to http://oscp.digicert .com for a OSCP suspension check"Then you can close this window, wait or cancel this process and the program will freeze and crash.I have already tried:- repair / reinstall - installing an older version "23.006.20320" - same failure- disable protected mode at startup- disable "automatic adobe Approved Trust List (AATL) updates" and "automatic adobe Approved Trust Lists (EUTL) updates" in the Trust ManagerHas anyone seen this error before? Right now these client have to use another PDF-Reader. 

There has been more updates for Adobe Reader this year than in the past 10 years. Why??Windows OS.

How do I stop this showing each time I open a PDF document in Adobe Reader?

Original: How to download the free adobe acrobat reader to a new iMac. I can only enter into one window set of instructions and it says I have to pay $30/month?? I am trying to again read .pdf files from my newsletters. How can I get some help with this?I cannot download adobe acrobat reader w/o paying $30/mon.====I got an answer, but it directs me to the same place I started to have trouble at. Does anyone there think? This is so easy if you provided a minimum of support??????Following the link provided below is identical to what I started with. Mr. John T. Smith apparently responded (per email response), but never tried it himself. You have to agree to a trial subscription that I do not want! Is this hard to understand? There is no way past this site that requires money. I do not want to provide a credit card and then have to go through the hassle of cancelling to avoid charges for a service I do not want, never had, and probably never will have.People: it i

I am unable to e-sign this form. It requires signature from two different parties and it is not the usual form where we click on validate. No matter what I do - I cannot electronically sign it. Please help! If the attached file doesn't open then you can find the link to this form here:https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/ircc/documents/pdf/english/kits/forms/imm5983e.pdf Thanks in advance.

Hi there!Apologies for the confusing title!Essentially, I have a single form that needs signing that I would like to send to 10 different people. Each person needs their own form, rather than sharing the same form amongst them all. Is there a way to do this at all? So that all email recipients receive their own document and I receive copies of each as they sign them?Or would I have to send the same form manually to one person at a time?Thanks in advance!

Hi! As someone with severe neurological issues and light sensitivity, I'm struggling to work with Reader more than a few minutes at a time. The "dark mode" option seems to only affect the UI and not the document itself. And the accessibility feature is so broken as to be unusable - it cannot be turned on and off for different documents, and depending on the formatting, many documents are rendered altogether unreadable. I'm desperate for a solution for my editing and proofreading work, which factors in document formatting and colours. Do things like mods and plugins exist for Adobe products? And if so, might anyone know of a plugin or workaround I can use to darken the backgrounds of documents and save my eyes? 

Hola, Ayer descargué la aplicación gratuita Adobe Acrobar Reader (PDF) en mi nuevo portátil. Ahora estoy intentando trabajar con un archivo PDF, PERO NO PUEDO EJECUTAR LOS COMANDOS DE LA BARRA QUE APARECE A LA IZQUIERDA DE LA PANTALLA (realzar mediante subrayados, dibujar líneas o formas geométricas, etc.). No sé:1- Si el documento está bloqueado para comentarios como los descritos.2- Tanto si está bloqueado como si no, cómo hacer para volver a trabajar con las herramientas ya mencionadas. Gracias

I was hoping someone had come across this before. We have recently installed Server 2022 on a new server and cannot get Adobe Reader to preview documents on the preview pane. We have tried most of the stuff on the Internet and contacted Adobe support, but they cannot get to the bottom of this. I have tried uninstalling Adobe reader, reinstalling it, repaired Adobe reader,  Preview pane in Explorer turned on/off, 

I'm currently writing my dissertation.  I need to have more than 50 PDF files open at once as I have over 100 references so far and I expect far more.  Is there any way to open more than 50 files in the same window, each document with its own tab?

I would like to send a pdf out for signature at a specific time and date. Can I do that? I have been using "schedule send" in my email with a pdf that needs to be printed and then emailed back. I want to have the email go for signature at a specific time and I don't see that as an option. TIA.  

Seit einiger Zeit vermisse ich unter Adobe Acrobat Reader (2024.002.20759) die Möglichkeit im Tool "Meßwerkzeug" mittels Rechtsklick dem Maßstab einstellen zu können. Zwar geht noch immer ein Kontext-Menü auf, jedoch fehlt hier der Eintrag "Maßstab und Genauigkeit ändern". In einem Austausch mit dem Kunden-Support wurd ich informiert, dass mehr Werzeuge als Apetithäppchen genutzt werden, um Kunden in die Pro-Version zu ziehen. Damit ist die langjährig genutzte Funktion für mich im Reader unbrauchbar geworden. Schade drum, denn wir hatten zusammen eine gute Zeit. Jetzt suche ich mir ein anderes Meßwerkzeug.

Hello,How do I uninstall the FontPack1900820071_XtdAlf_Lang_DC?  I've tried uninstalling Adobe DC and looking through the Program Files without success.I do not want to create scanned PDFs that require someone else to download the same font pack in order to read them.Respectfully,Eric McDermott
