"open in PDF format?
You mean that you used to have some applications (such as Adobe Reader, CutePDF, FoxIt PDF Reader, etc.) which has been set as the default application to open PDF documents and somehow changed in Notepad?
There are several ways to solve this problem - but here's what I suggest:
Download and install Adobe Reader.

Hello
The software provided for your device does not include OCR functionalityYou can use a solution of OCR 3rd party to analyze as editable text.
If you have Microsoft Office suite, there is a good chance of the suite to provide this type of functionality:
Office 2007 or 2010:

There is also this from carya.nl
There is a free version (which puts a reference to Carya on each page) or there is a professional edition that is paid (and probably does not have the reference).
I have downloaded, but have not yet used. But I'm about to in my last project.

I tried a ton of help from older suggestions. I can't find a cure for this problem for Firefox 7. If I can't make it work, I have no choice but to use the hated IE.
I would like to remove the add-on downloadable in PDF format that is listed in your contact information. (It gets terrible reviews.) Then, it should be possible to install Adobe Reader as default PDF application in Firefox options. And maybe the Adobe PDF plugin will be able to work again.

How can I get firefox to open a pdf file in adobe instead of the new pdf reader?
Before the recent update, 19.0, I google something and see [PDF] next to a link. I click the Center button to open it in a new tab. Firefox might download the file and open it with Adobe Reader. I like this.
With the new update 19.0, the pdf file would open in the new tab. I have to down load it and then open it in Adobe. I don't like this.
I'm going to preferences under applications. I look to see if I can change that. Next to document Adobe Reader, I choose to use Adobe Reader, but when I click on a link [PDF], it always opens the file in Firefox and not Adobe.
I want to go back to the way it was.
Problem: Open a pdf file in Firefox, he wants to save the file.
Remedy:
In Firefox, tools, Options, choose the column on the left (Content Type) Applications tab, select Portable Document Format (pdf). Right column (Action) choose Preview in Firefox.
I use Firefox 21.0.

Toolbox for Pages only opens in PDF format and does not directly open from documents Pages.
How do 'Toolbox for Pages' to open directly from a Pages document (I use ' menu Insertion, but that does not help) and get the spare in PDF formats since I can not insert in my documents Pages?
You have answered your concerns with Jumsoft, the vendor providing the third party package? It is an Apple product, or probably something that much/all have installed us.
The Insert on Pages menu is set by Apple and not usable by third-party applications. You get PDF page content in the Pages just by drag and drop.

How can I get this file exported in PDF format
How can I get a single file magazine among many others to export to PDF? For 12 years, we used different versions of ID to produce a magazine that is black & white, sent to the printers in PDF for offset. We kept of many originals of color photo that we had converted to grayscale. We do visit back editions, replacement of grayscale images with color when we haave it and export of high quality Print PDF. These are displayed on a web page for customers to download back issues.
The May 2011 edition is exporting in PDF format, at least not with the same settings as before and after this date questions, and different export settings does nothing for the situation. Tried .idml export and opening as a new file as suggested in the FAQ. This is saved as a new ID file under a new name. Still won't export to PDF, although the export of .idml went smooth as a whistle. Have been verified links and relinked two images in grayscale which was reported in the file links. No change. Have replaced outdated (TT) fonts with new (OT). No change. We continue to work backwards in time with these conversions, and always the older files export fine after the insertion of color. It is ID5 on a Win7 machine with lots of RAM. This part done ID5 to a creative suite so other applications are available in the machine. Don't have not trashed preferences, because they work with the editions before and after the trouble. What should I do next?
Thank you, Pierre. Export a page both reduced the search down to a problem page, which has turned having a problem with a graph that is used in each issue. Replacement and reissue of links that graphic design has exceeded this bump. It was on the new copy of the file that has gone through all the other changes described previously, so I don't know if they have had no effect. Need to return other issues rather than experiment with the original file.

How can I get Safari to open in my homepage instead of the last page, I looked?
Hi everyone, how can I get Safari to open in my home page or a page chosen instead of the last page I was looking at all the time? I keep trying to change this in Safari preferences, but I'm obviously something wrong? It doesn't matter what changes I make in the Safari preferences no matter what I do everytime I open Safari it opens just the last page I was looking at all the time?
See you soon.
Normally, you just go to Safari - attendance - general and set up your homepage.
However, if she does not work for you, try the following steps.
Go to the Safari menu (at the top right of your screen next to the Apple icon), choose 'Quit Safari'

Open Safari - Preferences - Privacy - data to remove any Web site.
Open the menu to go with the Option (Alt) key - library - key locate Safari folder and place it on your desktop. Restart your Mac, open Safari and delete the file from your desktop.
