Problem of Windows 8 and Adobe Reader XI
I have problems to open some PDF documents (IE forms) I get as attachments and receive the following error message when I try to open them: -.
"Adobe Reader could not open 'form.docx' because it is not a type of supported file or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an attachment and has not been correctly decoded)."
I can open and fill out these forms if I transfer the e-mail to another computer (Vista).
I tried to uninstall Adobe Reader XI and the installation of Adobe Reader X, but the result is the same.
I hope someone can help.
Even if you have an older version of Word, Word Viewer can solve your problem. Here again, all doc files (x) can be opened in the Viewer, but you can easily remove it if it causes more problems.

Windows Vista and Adobe Reader 6.0CE compatibility
I have download Adobe Reader 9.3, activate it and start the installation. Then appears the message:
to continue. Conductor (process Id: 1988) >. What should I do? (Sorry for the bad English) Whatever Adobe Reader 6.0CE has to do with the problem? I don't understand the connection.
You must research on this problem in the technical support of Adobe and/or poster group in their forum:http://www.adobe.com/support/reader/ andhttp://forums.adobe.com/community/adobe_reader_forums/adobe_reader.
This seems to be a problem with their software and not with Vista (or you need to explain the problem just a little more clear).
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

This is my first time using this forum. I hope that my question made its appearance and that this space is to respond to the answers possible, but just in case, here's my question again:
On a PC using Windows and Adobe Reader, I sent 10 PDF files in a zip file and each label of the PDF file with a number from 1 to 10, so that they appear in the order I want. Numbered 1 to 9 records fell in the sequence automatically, but the number 10 appears under the number 1 instead of below the number 9. I googled the problem, do not see addressed. I called Microsoft, and they said it's a matter of Adobe. If anyone can help I would be grateful.
Thank you.
Not an Adobe issue at all. If you want your files to a single digit (1-9) to appear before the 10, you must add a zero at the beginning.

Since the Windows 10 update, Adobe Reader XI and Microsoft Edge forms are not complete when opening a Web site. Why should I register to my computer before can fill them?
Hi kay3452,
Microsoft Edge is not compatible with the Acrobat/Reader plugins. Please try other web browsers.

Why is-tab order incorrect in the browser but OK in Acrobat and Adobe Reader?
I created a form to fill out and set the tab order to online. It works correctly in Acrobat and Adobe Reader, but when I download on my site, all browsers use a different tab order. I set the language than English. Sort of behavior RTL in the browser, it is also somewhat randomly. I have created several forms in the past and never had this happen before. This form was started as a Word document that I used the import form creator. Any ideas on how to force it to use the correct tab order? Thank you.
Many browsers (almost all) use their own internal PDF plugin by default. These plugins are known to have many bugs, and it's probably just another. Report the problem to the manufacturers of this plugin.

Plug-in for Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader
Hello
I need to create a plug-in for Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Reader.
The plug-in will perform the same functionality in both applications,
except in Acrobat, it will edit the document as well.
Can I do this using a single plug-in or should I create two separate plug-ins.Thanks in advance
VatspalOf course you can create it in one plugin.

I just get this while black window that install Adobe Reader and Flash Player
I just finished a re install of Windows 7 Premium, IE11
I have all my updates and service pack 1. I tried the download in IE 8, would not work so improved in the IE 11
My problem is, when I tried to download Adobe Reader and Flash Player it downloads and opens in the message box, so the last part is to install, I just get this black window, there is nothing in the entire window. I tried this a dozen times, but each time its always the same.
Can someone help me understand this, please...
Hey Valerie
If you download a standalone Offline Installer (i.e. that does not download the program all by installing) the same problem occur?
Adobes FAQ page States after the download is complete and the installation begins actually downloaded file is located in the downloads. Try to run this file and see if the black screen is still happening.
Thank you

Hello
On a Windows 10 computer I have Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat is installed.
If Adobe Acrobat is set as the default PDF Viewer, when I right click on a PDF file I don't have the button 'print '.
If Adobe Reader is set as the default PDF Viewer, when I right click on a PDF file I have this 'print' button, but when I click the button it opens Adobe Acrobat (why?) and it does not print anything
Are you aware of this bug? What can I do to make this work of button "print"?
Thanks for reading and your help
Nicolas
Which versions of Acrobat and Reader you have installed? The only supported combination is when both are of the same major version (for example, XI Acrobat and Reader XI, or Acrobat DC and DC drive). Anything else is not supported one can cause problems.

Hi J Jewell,
1. are you able to use other applications correctly?
2. were you able to use iTunes & Adobe Reader correctly previously?
3. don't you make changes on your computer before this problem?
If you face this question only in iTunes & Adobe Reader, I recommend you to uninstall the applications of the program & features. Subsequently, reinstall them & check if the problem persists.
To download Adobe Reader, please refer to this link: http://get.adobe.com/reader/
To download iTunes, refer to this link: http://www.apple.com/confirm/itunes/thankyou.html
Hope the helps of information.
Please post back and we do know. -
