Hi there

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble. As described, the PDF on a windows machine but not on the mac you get a blank page.

 

Would you mind sharing the version of the Acrobat Reader you are using on Mac device? TO check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the latest version 21.07.20096 installed. Go to help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.

 

You may also try to reset the Acrobat preferences as described here - https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/how-to-reset-acrobat-preference-settings-to-default/m-p/4792082

 

Also, please go through the help page https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-reader-discussions/pdf-won-t-display-please-wait/td-p/4788543 and see if that works.

 

Regards

Amal
