PDF opens in Preview over Acrobat

[daveb75792932]

Hi All,

I am having an on-going issue where when I open or export from InDesign etc. the PDF opens in Preview every time. I have gone into file info and set Acrobat as default but it still defaults to Preview. Not the end of the world but frustrating nonetheless. Another thing I noticed is that when I right click and go to open in Acrobat - Acrobat is not suggested and I need to go searching for it.

Any help much appreciated,

Dave

Dave,

What Acrobat and OS versions are you running?

Thanks,

Wait, theres more than one of us?! I'm on Monterey and Acrobat Pro DC latest version

@daveb75792932, I believe this is an Apple setting and Apple is not respecting your user preferences about how to open a PDF file.

I'm sorry for asking an obvious question, but after setting the default to Acrobat, did you also click on the Change All button?

I did indeed! No change
