Click on the box that allows to open the pdf file problem

I want to give learners the opportunity to open a pdf file with additional information, a link to a click box. I want learners must be able to close on the pdf and return to the same screen in the lesson when they end to read the pdf. Currently, it behaves not as I expected.

I put the box click on the help link "on success, open URL or pdf ' and selected attributes 'New',"Keep playing the project"."  I have been using the various preview modes to test the features and find that it works as expected; Is that a second window opens with the pdf file that can be closed, leaving the main screen not affected. In the browser HTML mode puts a new tab which I can get back to the main lesson. I don't like that option as well.

We are now my questions:

  • Is there a way to display the secondary file as an independent rather than a tab pdf file, as it does in preview mode, "from this landslide"?
  • Also, is there a way to stay on this slide parent once I have returned, then reopen the secondary window even if I want to? Currently, if I try, I'm transferring to next slide rather than the secondary window opens again.

Thanks for your help.

Thank you Rick. I'll fix the first issue. I'm sorry to hear that I can't do

what I want by the second issue but can live with it.

  • I click on the .pdf files and do not open or download... anyone have any ideas? MAC 10.6.8 Firefox 12.0

    I went on a site and downloaded a .pdf file. The next day I updated firefox and when I went to the same spot later in the day, I clicked the .pdf and it didn't download or open. I use firefox 12.0 and mac 10.6.8

    I found a recommendation in another thread:

    If you are using a Mac, go to the Firefox Plugins and disable the plugin Adobe Acrobat NPAPI, Version 10.1.3. This is a recent update of the plugin, and as soon as it was installed, I noticed that the PDF files would not download.

  • I downloaded Acrobat Reader on my mac but when I click on the PDF file, it says that I him have not downloaded?

    I downloaded Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, by following the steps described on the Adobe site, several times, but when I click on the PDF in my Outlook emails - it says that I don't him have not downloaded?

    OK, what you need to do is to save the PDF file to your desktop. The PDF that you see with the message, even if it doesn't look like anything other than a mistake. Then open the PDF with Adobe Reader.

    Do not save using the Save on the file menu. It does not work. Save the toolbar that appears above him.

  • Several unsuccessful attempts to open the PDF file in Windows Explorer by double-clicking

    Hello

    My system configuration: Windows 7 SP1 x 64 Adobe Reader 11.0.10.32.

    By double clicking on the PDF file or try to open with Adobe Reader IX in the menu shortcut in Windows Explorer or any other file manager, the software Adobe Reader opens only after a few attempts. At each attempt the AcroRd32.exe process arises. And after a few attempts, the file opens. As a result, I see several empty AcroRd32.exe process in the Task Manager, each have about 4000 KB of RAM and the only open file. I have to kill these empty process manually, because they are not dead before closing the window of Adobe Reader.

    I found the same problem on another PC with the same configuration.

    Best,

    Hi Alexis,.

    Could you please let me know for how long did you face this problem.

    Open the TEMP folder (press Windows + R and type %temp%) and delete all the files inside.

    This happens with any specific PDF or all PDFs?

    You can try to disable the Safe_mode opening drive then go to ' Edit > Preferences > (protection)»

    Let me know how it goes.

  • Clicking on pdf in Windows opens Adobe but not the pdf file

    I know it sounds like a minor annoyance, but it is a problem with Acrobat 11 in my main image. QA sign on my image until this is resolved. When my users launch a pdf from their local machine for the first time Acrobat opens but the pdf file does not work. Just close Acrobat and clicking on the pdf file again resolves the problem. These seems to be just a first question. Someone has any idea how to solve this problem?

    It is windows 7 x 64 with Adobe Acrobat Standard XI.

    Working with AA 11.0.0, or did you update? The updates may resolve the problem if they were not made, particularly on a 64-bit computer.

  • Cannot open some pdf files by clicking on them, but can open in Adobe Reader 10.1.0.

    When I click directly on some PDFs that have been saved in My Documents, I get an error message: "before you proceed you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the end user license agreement."  Yet I can open these files in Adobe Acrobat, they open easily.  This only occurred with the two credit card companies registered PDF files; My PDFs of Bank and other PDF documents can be opened without first opening Adobe Acrobat.  Is there some security block, I need to cancel or?  (I am the administrator of these files.)  I did a reinstall and repair, but this did not help.  (I use Adobe Reader 10.1.0 on Windows 7)

    Hello

    You can try and turn the Mode protected in Adobe Reader 10.1.0. That should solve the problem.

    You can do the same in:

    1 launch the player and go in Edition > Preferences.

    2. in the General category, check the corresponding chekbox to "Activate the Safe_mode at startup"

    3. click Ok and close the player. This should allow to open a PDF file with no problems.

  • Open a PDF file inside the ZIP with the preview pane

    Windows x 64 10 / Acrobat Reader XI

    My problem: I have a ZIP file with the PDF files. I opened the ZIP file with Explorer Windows and "preview pane". I click on a PDF file-> the display of the PDF file preview pane-> NO problem. When I click on the PDF file to open it in Acrobat I get the message:

    I found out why: when you click on the PDF Windows files a copy extracted in % temp % and when you double-click the file Windows want to recreate the same file in the directory %Temp%.

    How to open this PDF file without the file?

    Hi christianc77510099,

    Please, copy the PDF file of the Zip folder and paste it on your desktop.

    Now try to open it with the Acrobat application.

  • 33.1 FireFox will not display the PDF file from the website of the Bank after 33.1

    I asked this question in a non-support ticket so I want to give more details here. I tried to uninstall Adobe reader and reinstall and it did not help. It worked before with all the exact same addins I had before. I called the Bank and asked if they had any problems and they say no. I can go to the Firefox PDF display for this file and click Download the PDF file, then double-click it in Windows Explorer and Adobe reader appears and displays the file very well. Don't mind what to do at the moment. What happens is the Bank to load the file then Adobe reader opens with a white screen and a small circle going round and round, like a video trying to play, and it is just there for always. I never see the content of the file. In any case I hope that your have a good of a day as I am and I know that it improves. Thanks Firefox programmers for such a wonderful program.

    Update: while I was writing this I thought to go in Firefox options, then Applications, and wouldn't you know, a PDF document has been set to "Preview in Firefox. I changed that to Adobe reader and now it works fine. Suppose that there is something wrong with the code in Firefox. So I'm happy now. Hope this helps someone.

    Yes, the built-in PDF Viewer is a work in progress. Glad you found a workaround, or go to your favorite configuration, depending on how you look.

  • Open a pdf file to a specific location

    Dear friends,

    I would like to support a dialog with a help button that needs to open a pdf file to a specific location, is defined by number of page or (better) by named Destination.

    var helpFile = File($.fileName.replace (/\.jsx(?:bin)?$/i , ".pdf"));
    OpenPDF (helpFile, "FMcalccalculations"); // named dest = M8.newlink.FMcalccalculations
    
    function OpenPDF (fileName, destination) {
      if (fileName.exists) {
        fileName.execute("nameddest=M8.newlink." + destination);
      }
    }
    

    This is to open the pdf file on the first page.

    How can I pass parameters - not knowing what pgm will open the pdf file (depending on the installation of the user)?

    I've seen (IMHO) using an intermediary VBscriptthat crunch, but I have not yet tested this approach. As far as I understand that this would imply a VSscript for each destination in the pdf file.

    All ideas are wolcome.

    Well, friends, I found a solution on StackOverflow.com: in German, we say such a solution 'von fun druch die brust projectiles' fur.

    ExtendScript:

    // Open PDF at named destination
    
    var theFile = "PDFwithDestination.pdf";           // for my case: in same path as this script
    var destination = "M8.newlink.FMcalcseries"       // needs to be found in pdf, because the 8 is not a constant
    OpenPdfAtDestination (theFile, destination);
    
    function OpenPdfAtDestination (pdfFile, namedDestination) { // ====================================
    var path = GetScriptPath () + "\\";
    var location = "nameddest=" + namedDestination;   // see "Parameters for Opening PDF Files"
    
    // Call OpenPdfWithParameters, according to

    // A workaround to pass arguments is to create another file, that calls this script with arguments.
    // Yawar 2015-03-15
    
    // Create the calling batch file
    var tempFile = File (path + "tempScript.bat");
      tempFile.open("w");
      tempFile.encoding = "UTF-8";
      tempFile.writeln (path + "OpenPdfWithparameters.exe " + '/A ' + location + ' "' + path + pdfFile + '"');
      tempFile.close();
      tempFile.execute ();
      tempFile.delete;
    }
    
    function GetScriptPath () { //=====================================================================
    // Get the script path
    // Returns path in the function
      var scrPath, newPath, winPath, lastBSlash;
    
    // $.fileName: script path (including the file-name of the script)
    // platform independent format e.g. /e/_DDDprojects/FM+EN-escript/escript
      scrPath = $.fileName;
      winPath = new File (scrPath);
      scrPath = winPath.fsName;                       // get Windows format
      lastBSlash = scrPath.lastIndexOf("\\");         // \ needs escaping
      scrPath = scrPath.substring(0, lastBSlash);
      return scrPath;                                 // no final \ !
