Windows 8: make a PDF open in Acrobat Standard or Pro instead of default player

In an environment Windows 8, how can set you all PDFs to open in Acrobat Standard or professional instead of drive? I tried right click on a PDF file in Windows Explorer, select Properties, then changing the default player to the professional application. Although it seems to work (generates no error), continues to open in the Reader PDF files. There must be a way to change this. I have spent about 15 minutes of Googling cela, but was surprised, that I have could not find any solution.

PDF of property when the drive X is installed with Acrobat

The steps have not changed between different versions.

HTH,

Ben

  • Is there a way to link PDF open in Acrobat instead of the browser?

    I want to make a PDF open in Acrobat instead of the browser, so that the user can see its interactive features. Is there a way to do this in Muse? Or is it always pass on the user's browser settings?

    It would depend on the plugin installed, if the browser doesn't have a player plugin then pdf does not open in the browser.

    Not much can be done through Muse, but you can try some settings of pdf password etc.

    Thank you

    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.

  • PDF open in Acrobat different in Illustrator

    I received a pdf file which opens in Photoshop and Acrobat one-way, (like a 3.5x2 business card) then opens as a 8.5 x 11, 10 set of cards to bus in Illustrator. How is what happens? (I get a message of font substitution, but which would have to be done by the sight of entirely different content?)  I want to open the file as it opens in Acrobat, but this version/page is not where the opening in other applications.

    It seems that the pdf was cropped in Acrobat. Acrobat has a strange way of cropping. I bet that if you open the PDF in Acrobat (Standard or Pro...?) and select the culture Pages, you can see the same foreign content in the preview. In short, Acrobat modifies (modified in this case) a collection of data records, but do not delete the image data.

  • How to save a project created in Windows movie maker on a flash drive in. MSWWW format instead of. WMV format?

    If I understand well a previous answer, reinporting a project as mswmm allows rediting if the files are still on the computer.  Also, I am inclined to believe that the files remain available in the pane movie maker collections.  Am I wrong?

    > How to save a project created in Windows movie maker
    > to a flash drive in. MSWWW format instead of. WMV format?
    ===========================================
    When you save the project file... go to... File / save project as...
    Give the file a name (Summer Vacation.mswmm) and choose
    your save location.

    All the files (Photos, video clips, Audio clips) source should
    appear on the USB key and if you have the intention of re - edit the
    project on another computer... it should have the same
    version of Movie Maker. Sometimes a later version of the film
    Machine to will open the files but sometimes won't.
    ===========================================
    > If I understand an earlier answer, reinporting a project
    > mswmm format allows rediting if the files are still on the
    > computer.
    ===========================================
    This is correct. MSWMM is a Movie Maker project file which is
    is useful for a re-release in Movie Maker. And... the source files
    (Photos, video clips, Audio clips) should be available in the
    original locations...
    ===========================================
    > Also, I am inclined to believe that the files remain available in the
    > movie maker collections pane.  Am I wrong?
    ===========================================
    When a. MSWMM file project opens the thumbnails...
    remain available in the Collections of Movie Maker component as
    as long as the Source, the files are available in the places that they
    were imported initially from.

    If the source files have been moved, renamed, deleted or are
    unavailable, the thumbnails in the component Collections
    Movie Maker displays red Xs and the project cannot be
    edited.

    If the source files are still available... it is possible that you may
    Right-click the red Xs and navigate to the current location of the
    the source files and restore the path.

  • Default folders: How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.

    How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.

    Here is an article on how to change this folder opens when you click on an icon in Windows Explorer:http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-change-windows-explorer-icon-to-open-a-diffierent-folder-in-windows-xp-and-vista.html.  I think this will do the trick. Otherwise, maybe the following can help (but I think that's the answer you're looking for).

    Here's how to change the default template for a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets thefolder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show you how to resetthe Windows Explorer folder view settings, disable Automatic folder Type discovery and increase theview of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget display settings, model of file type, size, or position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.  Keep in mind that it works, just a generic and holistic - it will not work for individual folders by folder.  That cannot be done in Vista.  But you can create shortcuts to the folders that you want and add to the desktop or right-click

    It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with,open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the goodFile menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free programhttp://autosizer.en.softonic.com/to resize them.

    Here is another article on how to modify the columns in Windows Explorer and sort in Vista:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/108665-column-customize.html.  This will show you how Add, Remove, move, change the widthand change the sort order of the columns in Windows Explorer in the way that you want.

    Here is another article on how to change the display of the default folders in Vista (but she argues, it is not a perfect solution and can revert to the previous behavior is not as good as the two prior links provided:http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-10019957-68.html.)

    I hope this helps in your situation.

  • Impossible to edit PDFS with Adobe Acrobat Standard DC

    Hello

    One of my users try to modify a PDF file that does not currently have recognizable text. I understand that if nothing are recognized that you can't modify it until you run OCR.

    Although my agreement with Adobe Acrobat DC after choosing 'Edit PDF' Acrobat will automatically recognize the text on the first page to make it editable, even if for my user after choosing 'Edit PDF' they receive this error message:

    Capture.PNG

    If I try the same process with the same document Adobe Acrobat Pro DC program automatically recognize the first page and make it editable.

    So my question is: is this problem that may occur because we are using Adobe Acrobat Standard? I tried to look at your site in order to know what are the features do not come with Adobe Acrobat Standard DC, but could not find information on OCRing records automatically.

    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

    Modification of the functionality of scanned documents is not available for Adobe Acrobat or Acrobat Standard DC versions 11.x.

    You have to upgrade to "Adobe Acrobat Pro DC" to use this feature.

    Hi Karl,

    There is no direct option to remove the names of the PDF "in the recently visited list, however you can set the preferences and change the documents in the list recently used 0 or any other number according to your requirement.

    Go in Edition > Preferences > categories > Documents > Documents defined in the list recently used for a many appropriate as per your convenience. Save changes so that whenever you open Acrobat once again, these parameters do not change.

    The second option is as follows. This method is for Acrobat 10, but you can follow the steps and see if it solves your problem.

    1. Open regedit
    2. Go to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\10.0\AVGeneral\cRecentFiles"
