  • having problem reading pdf files

    Hello world! My name is HP slate 7 HD 3403ea. I'm having some trouble reading PDF files. That day, after that I bought my tab, I transferred about 25 PDF files from my handset to this tab. I could open all the files then. But a few hours later, when I tried again I could open only a few files, about 8 of them. I couldn't open the rest of the files. They showed "cannot open the file because it is not a valid PDF document.". Let me say clearly that all files that cannot be opened in my HP tab, can easily be opened by any other official bulletins, for example: my HTC handset or my HP laptop. I tried different things. I uninstalled the antivirus thinking that may be the cause of the problem, I tried various recognized appstore PDF readers, but none worked. Only 8 or 9 files can be opened now. I deleted all files "disabled" what we call, then donated to them. But it's the same thing. Each file can be opened immediately after the transfer, but none could be opened after a few hours. Help, please. Thank you.

    Hey @Atonu_dt ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you are having problems to open PDF files on your Tablet HP Slate 7 HD.

    Try to clear the cache on the tablet. You can do this by going to settings > storage > cached data. This should prompt allows you to clear the cache on the tablet.

    I also suggest to try the App PerfectViewer. To read PDF files, you will also need the PerfectViewer PDF plugin. These two are easy to find in the Google game store by searching PerfectViewer.

    Let me know if it works.

  • How to configure Adobe Reader to the default program to read PDF files after you install Adobe Acrobat?

    How to configure Adobe Reader to the default program to read PDF files after you install Adobe Acrobat? I have a few other programs that need to use Adobe Reader showing 'photo' that are PDF files, and after the installation of Acrobat, it is Acrobat that opens automatically, with a message whenever Acrobat cannot be used for this and will be closed, and then the Player opens. I don't like having to see this message every time... Thank you! :-)

    Hi anne-grethea26777033,.

    You can do CD player as your default application by browsing in Edition > Preferences > under categories, select the "Général" and at the bottom of the window, you must select an option which reads "set as default PDF Manager" under the label of startup application and click OK.

    Let us know if that helps.

  • Reading PDF files on iPad - too small police

    Hello everyone, instead of printing the articles/research that I want to read, I sent them to a former fire Kindle in PDF version. I just bought an iPad 9.7 Pro thinking it would be better, but it's the same tiny font. Someone at - it is possible to increase the size of the font in a PDF? Maybe there is a way I can save or print to PDF in a bigger font format before sending it to the iPad? Should be recorded in a different format? This material can be anywhere from 2 to 200 pages.

    That is the software you use to read these PDF files?

    He's probably a setting of font size it contains.

  • Why not download and read .pdf files

    I never had no problem download and playback of .pdf files to what I 'upgraded' Adobe reader version 11. Now all the downloads of attempts fail because "I don't have the necessary helper or same C:\DOCUME~1\Will-o\LOCALS~1\Temp\Back channel II - betrayal of the Viet Nam - ch. 1 & 2. PDF cannot be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Changing the association in your preferences. What in the world is happening and how to fix it?

    Under "Tools - Applications - Adobe Acrobat Document, the I chose 'Use Adobe Reader'." However since I also have Adobe Acrobat 8.3, I tried substitution, for the reader, but which does not work either. Help, please.

    You could try the following:

    (1) change your preference for 'Preview in Firefox' and use the download button to save the file. But it's an extra step.

    (2) change your preference to "Always ask" and see if you can get the file to open it in this way.

    (3) delete the file from your application's preferences (it is sometimes damaged) and try again. Note: these are only the preferences for which applications manage what types of content, not all your Firefox preferences.

    To do this:

    (i) open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using

    Help > troubleshooting information > "view file" button.

    (ii) switch back to Firefox and the output. Your Windows Explorer window should go back to the foreground. Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup.

    (iii) and rename the mimeTypes.rdf something like mimeTypes.old

    (iv) restart Firefox. It is likely you will default to 'Preview in Firefox' and I hope that the paths for Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat will now be correct if you choose one of those.

    A little luck?

If you open then we know that you have installed Adobe and that something else is causing the problem. If you can't open it, then download and install Adobe Reader from my previous post and then try to run your audio discs.

    I also send this document for recovery software (Windows 8) Options , which explains how to do the recovery.

  • Problem reading pdf files sent by e-mail

    I saved some impressions of release of the software for pdf files (software has option for registration in pdf format) and e-mail to a co-worker.  I can see and print very well from my hard drive, but the recipient received only the points on pages.  Should have been numbers and text.  I have Adobe 8.1.2.  You have an idea why it happened or what to do?  Thank you.

    Some e-mail servers corrupt PDF files as they use the encoding wrong for them. Try their compression upward before sending.
