Use of Google/Chrome for Adobe products

[NotaryKP]

Why can't I, and/or when can I access Document Cloud or any other Adobe product when using Chrome/Google? This is honestly not good service for your customers that this is not accessible unless I use Safari. IE, EE may be available, but I don't use those. I would like to access them from Google/ChromeG

Hi Kimberly,

We apologize for the inconvenience caused.

As per the description above, you want to use the Adobe Acrobat Product/Document Cloud from Chrome and want to open online PDF files in Chrome, is that correct?

You can configure your Browser i.e. Chrome to open online PDF files, follow the instructions in the link: Configure browser to use the Adobe PDF plug-in to open online PDF files

You can also open PDFs in Acrobat Reader from Chrome by installing the Acrobat Reader Chrome extension: Open PDFs in Acrobat Reader from Chrome

As per the records, you have an active subscription of Acrobat Pro DC on the Adobe ID you used to sign in on Forums.

You can make Acrobat Pro DC as a default owner of PDF, you may refer to the Forums thread: Acrobat X Pro default viewer  or Associate PDF files to always open in Acrobat or Reader on Windows 10

Feel free to update this discussion in case you need further assistance.

Regards,

Anand Sri.

Hi Kimberly,

The steps are similar in Mac and Windows OS to make Acrobat as Default owner of PDF.

You may refer to the following link to make Acrobat as default PDF owner in Mac: How do I make Adobe Reader my default PDF app.? |Official Apple Support Communities

Or can try the below steps:

1. Right-Click on any pdf file.

2. From the menu that appears, Select Open With -> Choose Program

3. Now browse and select Adobe Acrobat Pro DC from the available programs

4. Check the Checkbox present at the bottom of the list that says "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" and press OK.

Let me know if this is helpful.

Anand Sri.

I see A DC when I open with, but then there's a drop down for AR. I cannot select anything by just clicking A DC, I'm forced to select reader. Will this still open the A DC?

Hi Kimberly,

Please select Acrobat Pro DC from the list.

And, if possible, please uninstall the Acrobat Reader DC as it's a free Adobe software and use the Acrobat Pro DC.

If you still face any issue, please share a screenshot of the error/message/popup you are getting. To send the screenshot: How to share a document
