Question

Adobe Acrobat not the default for my Epson scanner

Since I loaded Abbyy FineReader 9 Sprint that came with my Epson V550 it has taken over duties of making PDF files.  Is there a way to change that back to Acrobat?

Hi chzuck,

Sorry for the delay in response.

Assuming you are using Windows 10, you may visit this thread: Associate PDF files to always open in Acrobat or Reader on Windows 10  Let us know if that helps.

The problem was not the app that opened the PDF file, it was that my Epson scanner software was using Abbyy FineReader to make the original PDF.  Both Epson and Abbyy FineReader would not take ownership of the problem and passed the issue to Adobe.

Start Acrobat and use the create PDF function from Acrobat.
