Adobe Acrobat Reader Saving Issue(Restrictions)

[jasminebhanus37859496]

Hi Team,

Unable to save pdf attachment from outlook it says "Restrictions". Please find the attached screenshot.

This happens after launching pdf file from outlook & when you hit file-save it gives the below error. When you hit OK- it goes to folder where you want to save the file.

Hello jasminebhanus37859496 ,

Kindly save the attachment to your machine first and then try to do the workflow.

Please keep us posted how it goes.

-Thanks

Hi Sunil,

Am able to save the attachment before launching pdf, but it doesn't allow me to save in the first place after I launched pdf-file- save. It pulls the restrictions message & then asking me to save. Is there anyway I can get rid of restrictions message?

Hello jasminebhanus37859496,

It does look like Microsoft issue, You can refer followings for similar issues:

This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this - Microsoft Community

Please let us know if these helps.

Adobe has beome useless top me as I cn print a down loaded pDF but not able to save a PDF as the save icon like many others I have seen here and on social media is greyed out. Why Adobe are and have not addressed this very common issue goodness only knows.
