I have Vista home premium and recently when I open a PDF file with Notepad, it opens in Russian or another language of gibberish.

This not a question of his being in Russian or any other foreign
language. It is simply that the notebook doesn't have the ability to open pdf files,
and the result is that the bits and bytes that a pdf is appropriate
reader knows how to display are mistreated by Notepad as text
characters (i.e. all the notebook knows how to handle).
So don't try to open a PDF with Notepad. Just like with any other
file type, you must have an appropriate program installed to
Open this type of file. For a pdf file, you need a pdf reader.
The most commonly used pdf reader is the free Adobe Reader software. But in my
point of view, the free Foxit Reader is a better choice than Adobe Reader. I have
recommend that you at least try and decide for yourself as you
Think is best. You can get it at

I tried EVERYTHING to get a PDF file to open it in firefox on my mac. They worked about 6 months ago but then stopped. I tried to change the application they open in preferences, applications, I tried to adjust the Add-ons, I tried to activate the pdf viewer. I'm using Firefox 41.0.1. I also run Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, version 11.0.12. Help! I had to start using safari, but now makes my battery burn on my mac so I would go back to firefox but I can't if I can't get PDF files to open it.

Hi ESNE,.
Have you checked to see if your PDF is updated? You should take a look at the Base files display PDF in Firefox article. There are lots of good information in there. You should try both of the suggested PDF Add-ons to see if this solves the problem.
Hope this helps!

One or more PDF documents are opened in a web browser - message
Hello
I have a new laptop series L and its great. The only foible I can think is a message that I get when I try to stop. There is a message box that says: "one or more PDF documents are opened in a web browser. If you are now leaving the adobe reader software, these documents will be closed. Are you sure you want to exit? ».
The thing is I don't have any PDF or web browsers open at the time! Can you help me please?
Thank you, Mark.Hi Mark
Believe me it s no big deal the same thing happens from time to time on my laptop
Usually, PDF files can be read with the Adobe Acrobat reader software. This service application runs in the context of the BONE and this message can be displays if the Adobe Acrobat reader software can not close the background automatically processI solved that little problem by deleting the software acrobat reader from the system. After restarting again I reinstalled it again
Now, the message does not appear and everything works like a dream ;)

I have Acrobat Standard XI and recently downloaded CD Player for a specific use. Reader became my default for open PDF files once it has been installed. How can I get Acrobat Standard to be once more my fault?
Hi nancye22519208 ,
Please right-click on any PDF on your system, then go to properties > under general, you will find "opens with". Here you will see 'change' option, by clicking on it, wil give you a window from which you can choose the Acrobat Standard XI as a default for PDF files.
Kind regards

To answer question you directly, no, you can't do nothing to prevent a valid PDF file opens in a non Adobe Reader, for better or worse.

Links in the PDF are not open in Adobe Reader
I created a PDF file from Adobe Acrobat that has links that open external web pages that works perfectly in Adobe Acrobat, but when the PDF file is opened in Adobe Reader, nothing happens when you click on links on. The cursor changes and the URL is displayed when hovering above, but when clicked on nothing happens. Now I tried the CTRL key and change various parameters "Trust Manager" in Preferences, but nothing seems to work. Do I need to save the PDF in a different format to allow links to be opened in Adobe Reader?

PDF not always opens I have Adobe Reader DC when printing a PDF printer
PDF does not open always in Adobe Reader MS when printing a PDF printer. (Version 2015.009.20079)
It seems that the question is more common when CD is opened in the first place.
Turn off the display tabbed does not help.
This happening in our environment Citrix using Xenapp 6.5 on Windows server 2008 R2 when printing from Adobe PDF, PDFCreator, or another tool to print PDF.
Best regards

It seems that there is a problem with the RdrCEF.exe file. When you rename the file solves the problem.
